Putting aside those frauds, the box office performance of domestic films in China is actually quite difficult to predict, and no director or celebrity has ever dared to say that he can fully grasp the audience's preferences, and the factors that affect the box office of the movie are not limited to the movie itself.

In 15 years, there was a domestic blockbuster with an investment of 350 million, the combination of big-name directors + big-name stars can be said to be stealing the scenery, the early publicity was even more vigorous, and there were more top-level theaters in the investors, and the box office of this film was extremely optimistic inside and outside the circle, and the media thought that it would be a record-breaking work.

After the results were released, the box office in the first three days was indeed very gratifying, winning hundreds of millions, but the audience's reputation was bad, and it soon fell off a cliff, and the total box office barely exceeded 500 million when it was finally offline, which can be said to be a mess.

On the contrary, there are many movies that do not have much publicity before their release and do not have many stars to join, but they are popular in the market and make a lot of money.

So with these precedents, everyone is very cautious when it comes to box office predictions, unless it is hype, they can be as humble as possible.

Nowadays, many audiences, especially young audiences, have a kind of rebellious psychology, you blow too much, he feels tasteless, and he just won't contribute to the box office for you.

Therefore, the question asked by this reporter to Lu Chen is really difficult to answer, Lu Chen said that it is high, then there is a suspicion of overconfidence, and if it is said that the media is low, then there is something to say - so unconfident, is there any problem?

In this regard, Lu Chen replied seriously: "Regarding this question, before you asked me, I really didn't think about it carefully, my consistent attitude towards movies is to do my best to do it, but let the audience judge." ”

"If the audience's evaluation is good, the box office will naturally be high, and vice versa. ”

When everyone thought that Lu Chen was using Tai Chi techniques to avoid this question, Lu Chen continued: "But since you asked, my expectation for "Smiling Proud Jianghu" is a box office of 10 to 1.5 billion!"

10 to 1.5 billion!

There were whispers and whispers among the reporters.

As far as the current film market is concerned, Lu Chen's box office expectations for the first part of "Smiling Proud Jianghu" are quite high, and you must know that the investment in the external promotion of "Sword Out of Huashan" is only 150 million.

The cost of 150 million is against the box office of 1.5 billion, that is definitely a big profit, Lu Chen is really not afraid of capsizing?

However, Lu Chen's words were not finished: "The box office of 10 to 1.5 billion, in addition, I also hope that the big movie "Smiling Proud Jianghu" will have no less than the peripheral sales of "A Chinese Ghost Story"!"

A Chinese Ghost Story!

Only then did everyone remember that Lu Chen's self-confidence was not without reason, it was not the first time he had made a movie, his first work "A Chinese Ghost Story" had a total box office of more than 1 billion and peripheral sales of more than 150 million, not only creating a top record for peripheral sales of domestic films, but even leaving behind most of Hollywood's imported blockbusters!

Originally, several reporters couldn't wait to ask Lu Chen questions about the box office, trying to find something to hype, but they are all silent now.

The box office of "A Chinese Ghost Story" was real, and there was no water at all, especially the peripheral sales, many people didn't believe it at the time, and some media also conducted a special investigation, and it was found that there was no fraud.

At that time, Lu Chen could only be regarded as a newcomer in the film and television industry, and his strength foundation was far less powerful than it is now, so who would dare to say that "Smiling Proud Jianghu" must be inferior to "A Chinese Ghost Story"?

From this point of view, Lu Chen is really not overconfident in the box office of the first part of "Smiling Proud Jianghu" from 10 to 1.5 billion, and there is nothing wrong with being modest and cautious!

You must know that the cast of "Smiling Proud Jianghu" is far from being comparable to "A Chinese Ghost Story", and the former has thrown the latter three streets away in publicity.

The reporters were dumbfounded for a while, but fortunately, someone rescued the scene in time, and got up and asked Chen Guozhi: "Director Chen, why did you decide to direct the martial arts movie "Smiling Proud Jianghu"?"

In fact, this reporter wants to know how much it cost Chenfei Media to invite this great god, and you must know that after Chen Guozhi remade a commercial blockbuster, investors carrying suitcases full of banknotes will always be indispensable in front of his house.

If there is any inside story in it, I believe the gossip masses must like to hear it.

Chen Guozhi is an old and spicy character, of course it is impossible to be asked such a question, he smiled and said: "I directed "Smiling Proud Jianghu", on the one hand, because Chenfei Media is very sincere, and I am also very happy to be able to cooperate with young and powerful actors like Lu Chen and Chen Feier." ”

After a few words of praise from Lu Chen and others, Chen Guozhi continued: "In addition, I like "Smiling Proud Jianghu" very much, I think this novel is very well written, it has created a new martial arts trend, and having the opportunity to direct the film version of "Smiling Proud Jianghu" is both an opportunity and a challenge for me. ”

"I am very willing to face such a challenge!"

As soon as his words fell, the scene immediately burst into warm applause, such a scene is very rare in media interviews, but Chen Guozhi is not an ordinary director.

The interview continued, and the reporters' questions naturally focused on Chen Guozhi, Lu Chen and Chen Fei'er, but Mu Xiaochu and Tong Xinyao, who were supporting roles, also got a few questions.

The answers of the two were decent, and they did not dare to play away on such an occasion.

Towards the end, a reporter asked Lu Chen: "Lu Chen, it is said that you will marry Chen Fei'er after filming the trilogy of "Smiling Proud Jianghu", is it true?"

Well?

This question was interesting, and everyone's eyes were focused on Lu Chen again, including Chen Fei'er.

Lu Chen was speechless—who made this rumor?

Speechless to speechless, the reporter's question still had to be answered, he thought for a while and said: "Thank you for your attention to my personal feelings, Chen Feier and I will give you an answer at the appropriate time, but at present, our job is to make this movie well and not disappoint the fans who have been looking forward to it for a long time." ”

The reporters were disappointed first, and they didn't dig out the fierce material from Lu Chen's mouth, which was a little regrettable.

When will the best couple in the entertainment industry achieve positive results, which is undoubtedly a question that countless people are concerned about.

It's a pity that the fierce material is not so easy to dig.

After the media reporter's interview, the opening ceremony of "Smiling Proud Jianghu" was completed, but then Lu Chen and Lu Xi participated in a signing meeting on the spot.

Chenfei Media invested 375 million yuan to buy 35% of the shares of Ningshan Film and Television City transferred by the Ningshan County Government!
