Chapter Seventy-Seven: Show of Affection

"Taking the Wrong Car" has achieved good results in Xiangjiang after temporarily dropping NT$28 million at the box office in Taiwan -- less than 20 days after its release, "The Wrong Car" has temporarily earned HK$5.2 million, and according to its current form, it will be able to have at least HK$7 million at the box office when "The Wrong Car" is drawn.

As a result, "The Wrong Car" will surpass Cheng Long's "Laughing Fist" at the box office in Xiangjiang, temporarily becoming the runner-up at the box office this year. Moreover, both the media and film critics have unanimously praised "The Wrong Car".

The filmmakers in Xiangjiang were dumbfounded by the brilliant results of a song and dance film, and all the filmmakers were thinking about why DreamWorks' films were so popular.

After countless discussions and summaries, most filmmakers believe that the fundamental reason why DreamWorks' movies can sell well is that DreamWorks' publicity offensive is big enough, and Xu Cun is willing to spend money on full-line screenings.

After coming to this conclusion, many wealthy film companies began to try to engage in publicity, and began to grab theaters.

Among them, Shaw Brothers is the craziest - Chu Yuan's "Peerless Twins" has not yet been released, Shaw Brothers has been overwhelmingly advertising in major media, and the trailer of "Peerless Twins" has been broadcast wirelessly for a week, and some people speculate that Shao Yifu will have to spend no less than 1.5 million Hong Kong dollars on advertising alone.

Such a large-scale publicity naturally had a certain effect - at the beginning of the release of "The Peerless Twins", the effect of the co-screening in the sixteen theaters of Shaw Brothers was indeed good!

However, only a week after its release, the attendance rate of "The Peerless Twins" was cut in half, and then it was out of control!

Seeing this, Shaw Brothers was forced to show other films to save the scene.

In the end, the box office of "The Peerless Twins" exceeded five million, and then it was drawn.

Compared with the previous life, the box office of "The Peerless Twins" was 1 million Hong Kong dollars more. However, after subtracting the publicity fee and the guarantee fee, "The Peerless Twins" is not as profitable as the previous life.

Other filmmakers who tried to promote and package theaters were even worse than Shaw Brothers, and many filmmakers even lost their money.

As a result, many people began to discuss, and then came to the conclusion that only if the quality of the movie itself is excellent, can it be promoted and spent money on full-line screenings. Otherwise, it is easy to lose more.

Several songs in "Taking the Wrong Car" are not only popular in Taiwan, but also in Xiangjiang - Huang Baigao and Deng Yiming relied on the original soundtrack record of "Taking the Wrong Car" to stabilize the inherent sales channels of Fengxing Record Factory, and also expanded some of them.

In addition, something happened that Xu Cun didn't expect - several dances he and Lin Qingxia danced in "The Wrong Car" were used as teaching materials by the dance world, and several of the unique and difficult movements were named with the word 'Qingxia'.

In short, "Taking the Wrong Car" has also become a phenomenal movie in Xiangjiang, and the sound of "Taking the Wrong Car" can be heard anywhere in Xiangjiang.

……

The filming speed of "Pretty Girl" was very slow - this was not only because Chen Xunqi had too high requirements for this movie, but also because Chen Xunqi was not familiar with the subject matter of documentary, so Chen Xunqi had to think about it while shooting, so that "Royal Sister" would be completed before it was launched several months later than it.

The crew of "Pretty Girl".

After watching the film made by Chen Xunqi, Xu Cun pressed his temples with his fingers.

Those who are familiar with Xu Cun know that whenever Xu Cun makes this action, it means that he is thinking.

Chen Xunqi, who has been with Xu Cun for a year, naturally knows Xu Cun's habit. As a result, he began to become a little apprehensive - Chen Xunqi was very afraid that Xu Cun would not be satisfied with what he had photographed.

In fact, Xu Cun is not dissatisfied with what Chen Xunqi filmed, but the "Pretty Girl" he shot is very different from the "Pretty Girl" shot by McDonald's Bear.

Mai Dangxiong's bold style of filming, no one can match the interpretation of black and dark, without Mai Dangxiong, a tough producer, "Pretty Girl" is less shocking and more reflective.

Xu Cun doesn't know if there is not such a big shock, "Pretty Girl" can still have the effect of the previous life.

However, at Xu Cun's request, Chen Xunqi also filmed with live radio, and his interpretation skills, atmosphere brewing, actors' performances and technical expressions were quite successful in all aspects.

In fact, Xu Cun thinks that Chen Xunqi's "Pretty Girl" should not be worse than McDonald's "Pretty Girl".

In any case, most of the filming of "Pretty Girl" has been completed, and Xu Cun naturally can't reshoot it again.

So, taking his fingers away from his temples, Xu Cun encouraged Chen Xunqi and said, "Good shot, Archie, you have worked hard." ”

Hearing Xu Cun's conclusion, Chen Xunqi breathed a sigh of relief-he was really afraid that Xu Cun wouldn't like the film he worked so hard to make. In that case, he didn't know how to continue.

"It's okay, I'm really afraid that I won't be able to make a movie with this theme." Chen Xunqi said.

"What, complaining that I let you make this movie?" Xu Cun said with a smile.

"Well, this kind of depressing movie really doesn't suit me." Ah Fuqi replied honestly.

Xu Cun knew that he was embarrassed by Chen Xunqi this time, so he promised: "When this movie is finished, you will discuss with Ah Yao and them a script you like, and then you will direct it independently." ”

That's what Chen Xunqi was waiting for! He immediately answered: "Brother Cun, you are not allowed to regret it!" ”

……

"Boom, boom, boom......"

In a series of explosions, Hu and Sanada Hiroyuki sped out of the coffin on a rail minecart.

The rail car in which Xu Cun and Huang Yuedai and two photographic assistants were riding, and the rail car in which Zhong Zhiwen and three photographic assistants were riding, traveled in a continuous explosion with Hu Yizhong and Sanada Hiroyuki in a minecar.

Three rail cars are speeding in parallel, and explosions are happening one after the other – and if you could have a camera to take aerial shots, you should have been able to capture a very powerful scene!

Unfortunately, this is not available at all.

When the rail car slowly stopped, Xu Cuncai shouted loudly: "Click"

Xu Cun jumped off the rail car, and then went to hug the grizzled Hu Zhongzhong.

In fact, everyone knows that since Hu Yizhong can jump on his own, he can naturally jump off by himself, but no one will express this idea stupidly without opening his eyes.

Of course, Hu Yizhong is happy for others to know about her relationship with Xu Cun. Therefore, not only did she not resist, but she also took the opportunity to help Xu Cun with two handfuls of dust on Xu Cun's head.

After showing his affection, Xu Cun looked at the pictures taken by the six cameras one by one.

After making sure that the picture was fine, Xu Cun asked Huang Yuedai to rearrange the camera - he was ready to shoot the last scene of "Royal Senior Sister".

Under the afterglow of the setting sun, Hu Comet and Sanada Hiroichi dragged the coffin forward left and right.

The two walked out of a short distance, and Xu Cuncai shouted: "Click! ”

After watching the picture just taken, Xu Cun, who was very satisfied, announced loudly: "I announce that "Royal Senior Sister" is finished! ”
