Chapter 252: Teen Choice Award

July 2006 is destined to be remembered by the entire entertainment industry. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 infoIn this sudden feast of awards, some people are full of money, some people have no income, and some people even lose a lot. If it weren't for the official document of radio and television, I am afraid that after July, this craze would not have subsided.

Although he made an agreement with Zhang Yimou, although he was also very unhappy with the Xiangjiang gang, Gu Wenwu would not be like a stunned person and rush violently. First, Zhang Yimou's promise has not been fulfilled, and even if he wants to be scared, it is also reasonable and premeditated. You have to find a way out for yourself.

So before there is a suitable opportunity, Gu Wenwu will not provoke the gang in Xiangjiang. This is not called cowardice, but just judging the situation. Gu Wenwu now wants to learn from Lu Meng, a gentleman who hides his weapons in his body, and moves when the time comes.

You must know that Gu Wenwu is very busy now. Before he released words in front of the media that he was preparing a new film, he naturally couldn't be lazy, and now he is busy polishing the script.

Naturally, this new film is not the third installment in the "Great Detective" series. First, Gu Wenwu has already made two big detectives, and he really doesn't want to make a third one, and secondly, he thinks that movies of this type of big detective can win the box office, but they can't win awards. Therefore, Gu Wenwu chose to pursue a little.

Adapting the script is no longer difficult for Gu Wenwu now. So although the script is only halfway written, Gu Wenwu is already worried about the casting of the movie.

Just when Gu Wenwu was still immersed in writing the script, "The Great Detective: Behind the Scenes" had quietly landed overseas. Thanks to the good reputation of the previous "Great Detective", "The Great Detective: Behind the Scenes" was vigorously promoted by the distribution company, and it triggered a movie-watching frenzy in the first week of release.

No one expected that "The Great Detective: Behind the Scenes" could be so popular, even if it was a searchlight company that single-handedly introduced this movie to the United States, they would never have thought that a foreign movie, after just a few days of publicity, would be able to sell so well. In the first week of its release, without being surrounded by strong enemies, "The Great Detective: Behind the Scenes" swept the entire country and topped the weekly box office list with a score of 32 million yuan. Let a group of Mi media call the wolf coming.

In addition to the big market in North America, "The Great Detective: Behind the Scenes" has also performed well in other countries, especially in Britain, for British fans, the "Great Detective" type of movie is too much to their taste, the last "Great Detective" won the weekly box office championship in Britain for three consecutive weeks, and this "Great Detective" swept the same period of films with a crushing attitude. Seeing that the "Great Detective" series is so popular in China, some domestic film and television companies in Britain have even begun to consider whether they can buy the film and television adaptation rights of the "Great Detective" series from the company in that Daxia country and make a TV series or movie.

Fox Broadcasting Corporation's headquarters. Voting for the annual Teen Choice Awards has begun. It is an award that celebrates outstanding contributions to the year's music, film, sports, television and fashion, and the winners of the awards are chosen by young people between the ages of 13 and 19. It doesn't sound very important, after all, it is still elected by teenagers, and it feels like a child playing at home. But in fact, this award is one of the most important awards in the United States, and a large number of celebrities from the entertainment and entertainment industry are present at each Youth Choice Awards.

And because the release time of "Detective: Behind the Scenes" happened to be during the voting period of the Youth Choice Awards, there was a problem that caused the organizer Fox Broadcasting Company a bit of a headache, because this year's Youth Choice Awards, there was another foreign film and a foreign actor shortlisted, and the advantage was still very big, which was embarrassing. For this reason, a small meeting was held within Fox.

"Evan, what do you think should be done?" After explaining the situation to everyone in the room, Kaylin asked Director Evan for his opinion.

"Do you have any thoughts on this?" Evan didn't answer, instead asking for the opinions of the others.

"I don't think we can set this precedent, since the inception of the Youth Choice Award, no foreigner has won this award, if it is won by a foreigner this time, what will the outside world think, they will think that our country's teenagers don't like their country's movies, such public opinion will make us very stressed." A tall white man said. His name is Jason and he serves as the deputy director.

"Are we going to lose the fairness of our awards for the sake of so-called public opinion pressure, and if we do, then what will the teenagers who voted for "Detective King 2" and TD Cheng think, are you trying to ruin the Teen Choice Award?" As soon as Jason finished speaking, someone immediately raised objections.

The views on this matter are nothing more than for and against. A group of people split into two sides and engaged in a heated argument. It wasn't until everyone had expressed their opinions that Evan spoke: "In my opinion, for an award to be long-lasting, inclusiveness is needed, and our job is to aggregate and publish the results of the vote, and we don't have the power to change the results, so what is the result, so be it." ”

"But." Jason wanted to say something, but he was defeated under Evan's gaze, so he had to shut his mouth and stop talking.

On August 1, "The Great Detective: Behind the Scenes", which has been released in the United States for two weeks, still won the weekly box office championship in the second week with an absolute advantage. Thanks to the courageous momentum in the first week, the distributor urgently adjusted the film schedule of "The Great Detective: Behind the Scenes", more big screens, and more film scheduling rates, so that the box office of the second week of the film's release increased a lot, and finally the box office of "The Great Detective: Behind the Scenes" in the second week was 40.7 million, surpassing the second-place movie by more than 20 million box office.

At the same time, the shortlist for the new Teen Choice Awards has also come out. "The Great Detective: Behind the Scenes" was shortlisted for five awards: Best Summer Movie, Best Mystery Film, Best Drama Film, Best Action-Adventure Film, and Best Confrontation Attack, and the actor Cheng Daoming was nominated for Best Drama/Action-Adventure Film Actor. When the news came back to China, the domestic media went a little crazy.

"The Great Detective: Behind the Scenes" has been painted for almost a month, and there were indeed a lot of related reports when it was released, especially the back-and-forth confrontation with "Night Banquet", which attracted a large number of people who ate melons. But you've been painting for so long, and the audience isn't interested, so why are you still reporting?

It is precisely because of this that even if "The Great Detective: Behind the Scenes" is a big hit abroad, there are not many relevant reports in China. But the nature of a movie blockbuster is completely different from that of a movie winning an award, not to mention that it is still a foreign award.

So, the day after the news came, all major newspapers could see reports about "The Great Detective: Behind the Scenes" being nominated for the United States Youth Choice Award, and even CCTV's morning news reported on it. With so many reports, it is a popular science for some domestic viewers who don't know about this award.

To be honest, when Gu Wenwu got the news, he was a little stunned. I just said that commercial films are not good at winning awards, and now I have won so many nominations, is this a slap in the face?

However, it is better to have a prize than no prize, and it just so happens that he also wants to go to the United States.
