Time flies, and in a blink of an eye, at the end of July, the filming of "Yanjing Meets Seattle" is progressing well and is gradually coming to an end.

I didn't encounter setbacks during the period, think about it, the actors, directors, and crew are all professional, and there is a green light from the Seattle official, and the three-in-one of heaven, earth and man, it can't go well if you don't want to.

At noon, the weather was hot, just shooting and playing a set of shots, looking at the staff who delivered the lunch box, Ye Xiangdong shouted: "Click, hard work, everyone, rest for 1 hour, let's continue after eating, today's task is very hard, try to shoot a few more shots, and strive to finish filming around August 5th, I invite everyone to go to the Empire State Building to have a good time." ”

Hearing the last sentence, the whole crew has some vitality, these days are in the high-intensity shooting task, sometimes busy until 1 or 2 o'clock in the middle of the night, the spirit is very poor, lazy, it feels like an old tree in the twilight years.

Ye Xiangdong saw it in his eyes, but there was no way, the end of August was the Emmy Awards, if nothing else, the Best Editing Award should be awarded to him, this is a good opportunity for hype, with this hot wind, maybe "Yanjing Meets Seattle" will be able to make it popular on the screen again, you know, this time the enemy is very strong.

According to the information from Dongye's studio, Li Long's kung fu blockbuster "The Strongest Martial Arts" is also coming to an end, and it is rumored that they have invited well-known martial arts actors from France, Korea, and island countries, and the action scenes are real and eye-catching, and the absolute high-quality film is an absolute high-quality film.

And Xue Jinxing is also impatient, Star Media is determined to help, costing 94 million yuan, the new film "Spy Change" invited a well-known Hollywood crew and stunt team, and fans have high expectations.

In this regard, 'well-intentioned people' have set up voting activities in movie forums and post bars. Who will win the three major dramas that will be released in August.

Although long before, Ye Xiangdong's team hyped it for a long time. On the surface, the popularity of "Yanjing Meets Seattle" is very high, but after the vote. Fans gradually found that they seemed to like more movies directed by Li Long and Xue Jinxing.

During this period, a group of film critics also began to fan the flames, speaking one by one in Weibo, analyzing the strength of the three parties, among which the comments of a certain big V were deeply trusted by the majority of netizens.

It's not that this person is more famous, but it's very precise, and the head is the Tao.

The comments are as follows:

"Regarding Ye Xiangdong's bet, I personally think that Li Long and Xue Jinxing are slightly better. It's simple to draw this conclusion.

First: From the perspective of the script, "Yanjing Meets Seattle" is a niche love story, while "The Strongest Martial Artist" and "Spy Change" are both very popular, and the audience index is much higher;

Second: From the point of view of quality, "Yanjing Meets Seattle" implements the simple style of director Ye Da, with a total investment of no more than 28 million, and the leading actors and team belong to the middle and upper stages, while "The Strongest Martial Arts" and "Spy Change" both have an investment of 90 million, cast and production team. The cliff can throw out Ye Xiangdong for a few streets;

Third: This is also among the many things, everyone knows that Xue Jinxing and Ye Xiangdong are both partners of Star Media, but there are still big differences. Xue Jinxing signed himself with Star Media, while Ye Xiangdong only reached a cooperation agreement with Star Media in the name of Dongye Film and Television Studio, and the powerful relationship is like a son and a distant nephew. Can a distant nephew be treated the same as his own son? I'm afraid not. Therefore, on the issue of the schedule of "Spy Change" and "Yanjing Meets Seattle". Ye Xiangdong will suffer a lot.

To sum up, Ye Xiangdong will undoubtedly lose. ”

With most film critics deliberately forwarding and guiding. Netizens talked a lot, Xue Jinxing and Li Long's fans were a lot more relieved, on the contrary, Ye Xiangdong's An Jiajun and Dong fans' hearts were half cold, not that they had no confidence in Ye Xiangdong, but that the opponent was too strong.

Ordinary netizens gradually became convinced, and at this time, the person who had a grudge against Ye Xiangdong laughed.

Xingfeng Newspaper.

The man with glasses took the new issue of the newspaper and gloated: "Little rabbit cub, all the promotions and salary increases of Lao Tzu have been lost, and I was scolded by the boss, this time, I see that you are not dead, get out of the film industry." ”

Skyscraper site.

Bai Kun, who was making bricks, looked at the advertisement posted on the telephone pole, and immediately laughed and scolded: "Ye Xiangdong, you are a big fool, isn't this time a fire?" Let you be arrogant, Ya, Li Long and Xue Jinxing are not as good as me, people are really talented and learned, they are all awesome, compare with others, wait for the movie to hit the street and the company will go out of business, haha Lao Tzu is waiting at the construction site to welcome you. ”

Something in the office.

Ren Boqiang was nibbling on steamed buns, while typing on the computer, watching the voting gap getting bigger and bigger, and Ye Xiangdong was still at the bottom, he couldn't help but feel happy in his heart, unlike others, he was just an ordinary commentator and did not join any newspaper or media company, so for the lawsuit that claimed Ye Xiangdong's reputation last time, he paid 110,000 out of his own pocket, when he thought of this, he was angry, but he hated Ye Xiangdong even more, this time he had the opportunity to fall into the ground, he naturally wouldn't give up, micro-fight post or something, He can all be seen, and all kinds of black leaves are facing east

Overall, the situation seems to be a bit bad at the moment.

But what is puzzling is that Ye Xiangdong and Dongye Studio did not react, but hurried up the process of the publication of the novel and the overseas box office of "Crazy Stone".

With the curiosity of some netizens and the gradual exploration, a bombshell sounded in the mainland.

At 12 noon on July 29, "Crazy Stone" landed in Baodao, Hong Kong, and Singapore, with a box office of 15.83 million, 10.32 million, and 13.31 million in the first week, respectively, ranking first in the box office list of the same period.

When this news came back to Yanjing, the CEOs of many entertainment companies couldn't help but blush, can they not be blushing!

In the past few years, movies in the mainland have been sluggish, not to mention the overseas box office sales, even the domestic shit, compared with Ye Xiangdong's luck, the domestic box office champion for several weeks, and now quietly sold to other regions, and successfully occupied the box office highland in the region.

This gap, can you still play happily!

And Master Meng of Star Media looked at this report, silent for a long time, and regretted in his heart, when he first negotiated cooperation, how could he forget about the overseas box office.

You must know that "Crazy Stone" won 1.13 billion at the box office in China alone, excluding taxes and Ye Xiangdong's 180 million dividends, the rest basically went to Star Media, that is to say, a movie with an investment of more than 30 million made them earn more than 800 million.

If the overseas box office is mixed up, it is a lot of money, and it is worrying to think about it.

After thinking about it again, Meng Shangrong called Ye Xiangdong, and hung up again after a few words.

Against the background of the sky blue wallpaper, Old Man Meng's expression was a little gloomy, and then he wrote down a heavy stroke on the August theater schedule and sent it out by email. (To be continued......)
