Chapter 223: Today You're Going to Marry Me

Zeng Xiaoxian said incomprehensibly: "Hehe, this can't be said yet, but the costume drama will be the highlight!" ”

Before filming starts, the plot still has to be kept secret, and of course, there are also directors who are generous and public, but that is not Zeng Xiaoxian's style, at least now is not the time to make it public. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info

However, although Zeng Xiaoxian did not say it directly, but just because the love apartment has been announced before, the ancient and modern drama is enough to arouse their imagination, and just now Zeng Xiaoxian said that the costume drama is the big head, doesn't that mean that there are fashion dramas, and the general movie is either a fashion drama or a costume drama, and it is impossible for the two dramas to coexist, so what does Zeng Xiaoxian mean by this?

Zeng Xiaoxian's words are like cat's paws scratching in the hearts of many reporters, but they just can't get an answer.

"The new drama has begun to be prepared, and I hope to start filming before the Spring Festival!" Zeng Xiaoxian said that the more Zeng Xiaoxian felt that there was not enough time to seize every day, and in the next year, Zeng Xiaoxian had more things to do, including the filming of "Mythology" that had been determined and the cameo work of "The Legend of Sword and Fairy", as well as the work of a record that had been determined before and the line of the lower part of "Zhu Xian", fortunately, "Zhu Xian" has been completed, and there is only a suitable opportunity to go out.

"Zeng Xiaoxian, can you tell me why you suddenly want to be a director?" This is also a question that many people want to ask.

"Actually, it's not a whim, I've wanted to be a director since I was very early on, and this time the company gave me the opportunity to be a director!" Zeng Xiaoxian explained that it was also the first time to explain his work as a director.

"Alright, that's all for today's interview!" Fang Qing on the side stood up and said, the main purpose of today is to solve the problem of the scandal between Zeng Xiaoxian and Hu Yifei and divert the attention of reporters, now that this goal has been achieved, there is no need to continue!

The scandal between Zeng Xiaoxian and Hu Yifei is boiling, and as soon as the news of Zeng Xiaoxian's invitation to Hu Yifei to be the heroine came out, it was tantamount to giving a blow to the tabloid reporters who spread this kind of news, and they were dizzy and couldn't find the north.

The tabloids that were originally triumphantly swore that Zeng Xiaoxian and Hu Yifei definitely had an adulterous affair didn't know what to do for a while, those tabloids made waves, but in fact, they themselves didn't have any real evidence, more of a membrane test, or simply nonsense, now it seems that the facts are already fighting, and they won't believe it anymore.

Readers are not stupid, this is obviously hyping up a new movie, you won't believe it no matter how much you talk about it, and you can't come up with any hard evidence to prove it, as for the candlelight dinner, everyone said that it was a matter of discussing the script. As for why it's candlelight, the power goes out, this kind of thing is not nothing!

On January 10, the much-anticipated "Thai Embarrassment" finally completed post-production and was released.

Although the time for the launch is very rushed, the love apartment company has actually been preparing for the launch. So although it was a bit urgent, it was still very successful and simultaneously released around the world.

In Hong Kong, "Thai Embarrassment" grossed 19 million in just one day.

The box office reached 40 million three days after its release in Hong Kong, and 73 million a week later, setting a new record for the weekly box office in Hong Kong.

The box office of "Thai Embarrassment" in Asia was also popular across the board, with tickets exceeding 50 million in just three days after its release in the mainland, and a week later, the total box office reached 110 million.

In Taiwan, the box office of the premiere of "Thai Embarrassment" reached 10 million yuan, and even reached a scene where it was difficult to find a ticket, and the number of screenings of "Thai Embarrassment" in cinemas was full. In the end, the cinema had to divide a few more screens. Clamping was added, but even this was still far from satisfying the audience, and it was only after a week that the frenzied crowd receded, and by that time the box office had reached nearly 70 million.

In other words, in just one week, the box office of "Thai Embarrassment" in Chinese-speaking regions has exceeded 100 million, reaching 223 million, which suddenly refreshed the box office record again and reached an exaggerated record. And this box office is not the most outstanding among Zeng Xiaoxian's many movies, but it can still achieve such results under various unfavorable circumstances, which has to make everyone feel like they have fallen through the glasses.

Although "Thai Embarrassment" is really good and has a lot of outstanding points, it is still very local, but according to common sense. and the predictions of those experts and film critics in advance that "Thai Embarrassment" will be good at the box office by then, but it should not be too smooth.

But the fact is that it is indeed much inferior to the previous films, but it is still an achievement that is difficult for many filmmakers to achieve, and the most important thing is that this movie should have a lot of stamina, and it has only been broadcast for less than a week, and there are still three weeks to go for the Chinese New Year.

Although Zeng Xiaoxian is not the first time to appear in a light comedy, the behind-the-scenes helpers invited are all "wrists", the director of photography Li Pingbin is the winner of the Golden Horse Award for Best Cinematography four times, and the art director Yu Jia'an has won the Best Costume and Styling Award at the Academy Awards several times; Soundtrack director Wang Zongxian, a master of Hollywood film scores, has composed many Hollywood and Qiangsny film scores, and has composed original music for many classic movies; Du Duzhi, a sound engineer who won the 38th Cannes Best Technology Award; Editor Lin An'er has the reputation of "the first cut in the rivers and lakes". ”

"With so many professionals joining Zeng Xiaoxian's "Thai Embarrassment", the film has high expectations in terms of standards." Sina.com.

"Although the plot is a bit cliché, the laughter, sincerity, and musical resonance of this movie are absolutely enough! In the tank! "A netizen, I'm the big bad.

"I went to see Zeng Xiaoxian's new work "Thai Embarrassment" in the evening, and I had to admire his talent, although the script directed by himself was low-cost, but it was quite interesting, the scale was well grasped, and there were many laughs at the same time secretly conveying the unique charm of traditional Chinese virtues. Chinese people now have lost their traditions, the lack of culture is the greatest sorrow of a nation, and the special effects, editing, and creativity of the film are quite Chinese. "Sohu is just a friend, and my brother is lonely.

"What's the biggest attraction of this movie? Of course, it is Zeng Xiaoxian's self-subversive performance! ”

"What does the movie "Thai Embarrassment" tell us? In fact, under the temptation of money and power, we should also have a sincere heart to pursue the dream in our hearts! "A Nantong Evening News.

"If you look at it from a technical point of view, you feel that there are a lot of flaws in this film. You may feel that the storyline is a little "naïve", the rhythm of the film is not very smooth, and even the editing in some places can be described as blunt, and even the patch ads seem stiffer than other films. The director's intention is so obvious that even so, when you see such a scene, you will only laugh heartily, and the feeling is like seeing a child "making a mistake".

A month passed in a blink of an eye, and "Thai Embarrassment" was released for a month. The mainland box office easily exceeded 400 million, reaching 440 million. The box office in Hong Kong also easily reached 160 million. Taiwan's box office also easily exceeded 100 million, reaching 110 million, and the box office reached 170 million yuan two weeks after its release in Southeast Asia, and the total box office has reached 980 million, and it is only a matter of time before it breaks 1 billion.

This is far more than all the films of the same period, and this is not counting the box office of some economically developed countries and regions.

Of course, in the end, Zeng Xiaoxian was most surprised by the Japanese box office, although the Japanese box office has always been one of the world's three major box office bases, but it has always been a relatively small category, and this kind of light comedy is not their favorite category, compared to those American blockbusters that save the world at every turn, such a warm and funny film can also win a lot of fun.

There is no better place to enjoy than Hollywood blockbusters, but unexpectedly, it is precisely Japan's highest box office, and it is incredibly high, as high as 130 million US dollars, which is more than the box office in Europe and North America combined.

Combined with the box office of other film markets, the total box office of "Thai Embarrassment" reached 380 million US dollars.

Especially for the Hollywood giants whose production costs have become higher and higher in recent years, it is also a reminder that not only Hollywood-style blockbusters can be popular all over the world, nor can only high costs be able to pile up high box office, as long as the story is good, nothing is impossible, these years, Hollywood film companies themselves have been pressed by their own high-cost plans, due to the huge cost, almost every drama must be carefully reviewed over and over again before filming, because if it fails, it is a loss of funds in the hundreds of millions, even if they have deep pockets, they feel overwhelmed, and it also gives an inspiration to other film companies that are overwhelmed by Hollywood movies, and a good story can be worth hundreds of millions of dollars.

It is also a great inspiration for domestic film companies, which in the past wanted to enter the Hollywood market. It is all ten difficulties, except for kung fu or kung fu, it seems that foreigners are only interested in Chinese kung fu, although there are also frequent Chinese films that win awards at foreign film festivals, and many are not martial arts films.

seems to be infinitely beautiful, but in fact, it is just to win the favor of some judges, and it has not really gained the hearts of the audience, many people in China don't know, let alone people abroad.

What really wants to win the favor of the audience is to work hard to explore the common aesthetics of people all over the world, for example, Hollywood blockbusters directly use everyone's hero complex to gain recognition in this way, and the artistic moment can be put down a little, because those humanities and arts and the like are actually only some people understand small and most people don't understand, since they don't understand it, how can they like it, and if they don't like it, the box office situation is of course very miserable.

And the success of "Thai Embarrassment" lies in the fact that it captures the common hobby of global audiences, laughter, even for audiences who don't know much about Chinese culture, it doesn't affect the smoothness of watching it, as long as you follow the story and laugh out loud, it's okay.

Although the performance in Europe and the United States is unsatisfactory, and only in the Chinese circle has gained some box office, but the box office around the Asia-Pacific region has made the company full of money.

Due to the preparation of a new movie, Zeng Xiaoxian had no way to promote "Thai Embarrassment", so he could only take advantage of the filming interval to participate in more important publicity and announcements, Zeng Xiaoxian hung the producer and director. Screenwriters, male number one and a large number of other guys with a lot of titles are really incompetent.

In this regard, the promotion of "Thai Embarrassment" was the most deficient one of Zeng Xiaoxian's movies in history, but fortunately, there were Li Cheng and Wang Lei supporting the scene, but I didn't feel cold.

After finishing his work, Zeng Xiaoxian didn't stay long, and returned directly to Binhai, Binhai dragged almost all of his attachments, Hu Yifei was here, that was Zeng Xiaoxian's love, although it would slowly deteriorate after a long time, become a habit, and become family affection, but Zeng Xiaoxian's emphasis on this relationship exceeded everyone's expectations.

It is rare to have time to rest, Zeng Xiaoxian also wants to accompany his family well, and directly asked the company for a few months of vacation, until the beginning of the year, Zeng Xiaoxian will not receive any notices and participate in any activities, it is completely his personal time.

Of course, his wish is very good, but the truth is not so simple, it is not that the company forced him, but had to do it.

Calculating the time, Hu Yifei joined the company because of Zeng Xiaoxian's relationship is not a short time, and she has been appearing in front of everyone as an actor for such a long time, which makes many people seem to forget that she is actually a singer.

The company has been planning to release an album for Hu Yifei, but there has been a notice before it failed to happen, this time not only has time, but also the songs have been collected, and the most important thing is that Hu Yifei has released an album, Zeng Xiaoxian naturally can't stand by and watch.

Zeng Xiaoxian also handed over a pretty good song "Today You Are Going to Marry Me", anyway, he is going to cooperate with Hu Yifei in a new movie after the New Year, and it is not a bad thing to maintain a little popularity, so that the scandal that has just subsided is stirring up, which is good for Hu Yifei's new album and movie.

Since "Today You Are Going to Marry Me" is a love song sung by men and women, Zeng Xiaoxian naturally took on the responsibility of male voices, and as the title song of the album, it must be carefully crafted, Zeng Xiaoxian had to go out in person and served as the producer of the album of the same name "Today You Are Going to Marry Me", and the director and the male lead.

Zeng Xiaoxian now rarely helps others make albums and help perform, Zeng Xiaoxian is one thing to be busy himself, but with such a big name as Zeng Xiaoxian, there are only a few people in China who can afford it, let alone a producer, Zeng Xiaoxian is the first time to serve as a producer for other people in addition to his own records, although Zeng Xiaoxian is not experienced in the identity of producer, but think about the records of Zeng Xiaoxian as a producer before, no one doubts Zeng Xiaoxian's qualifications anymore.
