Chapter 702: First Week

The filming of the crew of "The First Chaos in History" in Hengdian continues, and the crew currently filming in Hengdian is the biggest name in this group.

Maybe it's because the relationship is good, maybe it's because they have a good temperament, Gan Jing feels that this is almost the most pleasant crew he has ever been in, just a little worse than chatting with Hathaway about poetry and watching the scenery with Scarlett.

Of course, a pleasant atmosphere does not mean that there are no twists and turns in the shooting, and sometimes there is a lot of trouble between several celebrities.

"Try lines like this?"

"Eh, what if this set was changed like this?"

"This pattern of interaction can be changed. ”

Before returning from the United States, Gan Jing repeatedly warned himself in his heart that this time in the crew, he was not only an actor, but also a producer, and an investor, not only acting, but also helping and caring for young directors.

It's just that...... It's so cool to let yourself go!

The collision of acting inspiration is very cool!

Changing the play...... It's also very cool!

Gan Jing has never been a person who follows the rules in filming, and here I met a few actors who are also full of ideas in filming, and things are out of control.

Director Zhou Shen often has to face changing plays and improvising, but he always has some dry goods in his stomach, as a young director, his ideas are relatively open, and over time he feels that this is not bad.

At the end of the filming, the improvisation and drama changes gradually disappeared, and Zhou Shen still felt a little regretful.

In mid-August, a new actor was added to the crew, who was nominated for the Golden Horse Award for Best Supporting Actor last year for his role as Wei Zhongxian in "Embroidered Spring Knife" - this is the person Zhou Xun asked to play Liu Bang.

When the role was first set, because these people were not very interested in this role and there were not enough people, Liu Bang's role was cut and appeared as a supporting role.

Jin Shijie is an old actor, even if there are not many scenes, he can still express the role of Liu Bang with full tension, after all, his own image is quite in line with Liu Bang's scheming character.

A little later, Huang Bo's role ended first, and he left in a hurry without delaying in the crew waiting for the finale banquet, because what followed was the publicity and release of his other new play "Heart Flower Road".

The next person to end the scene was Gan Jing, but he didn't leave the group, but instead started a fierce online publicity.

"The First Chaos in History" has been building momentum on the Internet since the beginning of the project, and its cast was first highly anticipated by the audience, and then there have been tidbits flowing out during the filming process, whether it is Sun Honglei's laughter, or Huang Bo's funny, or Zhou Xun's side face, the strategy set by the publicity team is to pass on the atmosphere of this drama to everyone first.

From July to August, the popularity of new dramas about several first-line celebrities on the Internet has been high.

Soon, in late August, the drama was announced to be completed, just two days after the finale banquet, "The First Chaos in History" won the dragon mark at a speed that made Gan Jing jaw-dropping, and it was set for September 1.

Huaying's resources for this drama can be seen.

It's just that this speed makes Zhou Shen a little worried, if the box office of this movie is not good, is there a high probability that the person who bears the blame will be himself?

In this regard, Gan Jing comforted: "Shen, don't worry, only by carrying the blame can it be proved that it is your own person, and others can't carry it if they want to." ”

Zhou Shen did not object to the title of the boss, nor did he object to the boss's nonsense, but he continued to be worried.

The Hengdian crew announced their disbandment after the lively finale banquet, and the actors went back to their homes.

Gan Jing was very happy to film this time, and invited everyone to sit on his side when he was free, and he could still cooperate if he had the opportunity, and then he went back to the company, on the one hand, to deal with publicity, and on the other hand, to deal with some things that need to be decided.

Previously, South Korea's CJ Entertainment Company came up with a script for "Twenty Years Old Again", planning to shoot different versions of the movie in several countries, this matter has been decided, but the role lineup has not been decided, the director, if there is no problem this time, it is still Zhou Shenshang.

This news has spread, and many directors in the industry have been blushing, this is just his own son, right? Before and after, he either joined the crew as an assistant director, or he was directly the first director!

This kind of resource, this way of accumulating contacts, is simply outrageous!

Think about it, Zhou Shen is only about thirty years old now, and the more he goes on, the more popular the director's profession becomes, as long as he doesn't make mistakes, the famous director may not be, and the big director is afraid that he will not be stable.

Gan Jing didn't care about the outside thoughts, he just felt that Zhou Shen did have good kung fu as a director, and he had been in contact with him for so long and his character was quite right, so he had a lot of support.

At the end of the month, there is only one day left before the release of the film on September 1st, and the advertisements and pre-sales of major theaters have already been launched.

This time, the promotion of the film did not go offline, and it was almost all online publicity, which tested the appeal of the actors and the reputation of the works, and it can be regarded as a test of the waters of movies in the Internet era.

Based on this situation, many film and television companies are staring at the release of "The First Chaos in History".

September 1st is set, and the opponents at this point in time are the foreign "Expendables 3" and the domestic "One Life" starring Nicholas Tse, Gao Yuanyuan, and Du Haitao, the latter is already a tall man selected from a number of domestic films.

The reason why Huaying agreed to announce and release it almost simultaneously is also because they are more aware of the situation of the theater schedule, and at the same time, they are not optimistic about the foreign blockbuster "The Expendables 3".

According to their insiders, after watching the samples submitted for review through channels, it was just a bad movie with the halo of old stars, and Stallone, Schwarzenegger, Gibson, Statham and Li Lianjie could not save a movie with boring drama, jumping scenes, and redundant lines.

At the joint meeting of Bairihong and Huaying, Gan Jing heard such an evaluation from a friendly company.

However, the results of the first week of release make it seem that this is not the case.

The box office of "The Expendables 3" in the first week was 240 million Chinese coins!

"The First Chaos in History" box office 235 million Huaxia coins in the first week!

The release date of both films is September 1, the former beat the latter and became the domestic weekly box office champion, while "One Life" is only 70 million, completely withdrawing from the competition.

This time, director Zhou Shen couldn't sit still, and he went to the boss when he first got the box office.

"It's not good, are we going to promote it again?" Zhou Shen was a little worried.

Gan Jing looked at the box office figures on the document, waved his hand and said, "It's too late for publicity now, you go and call Yang Lan from the new media department." ”

Soon, Zhou Shen walked into the office with Yang Lan.

Gan Jing didn't speak for the first time, and lowered his head and fiddled with his mobile phone before saying: "Yang Lan, I gave a move on Weibo, you can make it hot." ”

Hearing this, Zhou Shen hurriedly opened his mobile phone and found Weibo, and saw that the boss's latest news was a line of text with a picture of "The Expendables 3" defeating "The First Chaos in History" to win the weekly championship.

- Don't you love me anymore?
