Chapter 200: The Chinese drama series debuts 6 in the United States

The publicity of "Blair the Witch" was very popular, and in the United States, people could be heard everywhere discussing the story of the witch and the safety of the three college students. Pen | fun | pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 However, before the film was released, almost no one knew that it was a hoax, let alone that it was a promotional ploy for a movie.

And at this moment, a guy who claimed to be the prophet emperor suddenly appeared on the Internet, analyzed the story of the witch Blair, and analyzed the fate of three college students.

"This girl, it's too noisy." Diplodocus also read the post written by Kayla, and it is certain that this post will inevitably have an impact on the upcoming film. As for whether it is a good influence or a bad influence, it is not for Diplodocus to know.

"I think it's good, the artisan company doesn't also think about creating gimmicks, and now it's better to be troubled by Kayla like this, and it attracts more attention." Rachel quite agrees with Kayla's approach, provided that the film has nothing to do with her, and it doesn't matter if it's good or bad.

"But after all, it's the first DV movie, and I still hope to be successful." Liang Long sighed, he also hoped that this film could be successful and kick off the prelude to DV movies, so that more people who lack funds and have movie dreams can enter this circle.

"What's going on?" Seeing the post, the senior management of the craftsman was also stunned, the analysis of the post is reasonable, but the key is that it is completely in line with the content of the video. The craftsman immediately thought that there was a problem within the company, and someone deliberately revealed the content to sabotage the promotion of the film.

But this matter, the artisan company did not dare to publicize it, after all, the whole publicity plan is a scam, if it makes a big deal now, it is tantamount to telling everyone that it is a scam, then the audience's enthusiasm will fade in an instant, and this low-budget film will be scrapped. After a morning of discussion, the craftsmen decided to ignore the matter, because this matter was beyond their control, and if the other party really wanted to expose the scam, they could not do anything. However, this incident has also aroused the vigilance of the top management of the craftsmen, and the internal management of the company must be strengthened, and similar incidents must not be repeated.

Because of Diplodocus and Kayla, "Blair the Witch" inexplicably had an extra publicity plan, but the film was still released as scheduled. However, this is an unprecedented DV movie, and the artist company doesn't have much confidence, so there are only 27 theaters in the screening, and it is also an attempt at Xing. However, the results achieved were beyond everyone's expectations, and 27 theaters won an unprecedented $1.57 million box office.

"It wouldn't be, would it?" Kayla was taken aback by the box office of "Blair the Witch", knowing that the production cost of this DV movie was only $350,000, and the box office in these three days is equivalent to making a lot of money.

"It is undeniable that the story is good, but the quality is average, but don't look at the important xing of the publicity." Liang Long knows too well the film's ability to strengthen the box office, this is a hot film with a cost of more than 100 million yuan both locally and overseas.

The artist company is very calm, and the effect is good for three days, but in the second week, it is not in a hurry to expand the theater line, and it is only released in 31 theaters, but the box office is still beyond everyone's expectations, and the third week is crazy, and the artist company begins to let go of its hands and feet, and the home theater is released at the same time, and the box office is rising day by day, earning 3 US dollars, which has caused countless people to be red.

The success of "Blair the Witch" is both enviable and jealous, so it is natural that there will be discordant voices that express their inner envy and jealousy vividly: the film is shot like this, and the director makes strange noises in the forest every day, scaring the actors to wake up. Every morning, the actors go to pick up the threatening notes that the director has pressed under the stones, including clues to the next performance, and the actors look for their own feelings. Again, I have to say that the director is really clever, a part-time screenwriter, but he only wrote the outline of the script, and even the dialogue was played by the actors themselves.

This is still the most clever place to not direct, the most clever place is to save money, the DV machine used for shooting, including H8, was bought in the public equipment store, and the shooting was completed in six days, and the machine was still in the one-month package return period. So, the DV machine was returned to the store. It also saves the photographer and lighting workers, and just lets the actors take pictures of each other, which is not something that anyone can do, at least Stephen, Cameron and Diplodocus.

What sarcastic language, but so what? The two young directors dared to think and do, so they succeeded, although there was a certain degree of luck, but it was by no means accidental.

The box office of "Blair the Witch" is rising, and Kayla is also learning pregnancy with Rachel, and she is about to return to the United States to start filming. Coincidentally, Liang Long also had something to go back to the United States, so he sent the girl back by the way.

For Liang Long, for Yanhuang Film Company, Disney Company, and Paramen G Company, this is very important, because the first Chinese-themed series is about to land in the United States. "My Leader, My Group" is the first Hollywood film to break one billion dollars at the box office, and it has caused a crazy 97, which can be imagined. When Liang Long proposed to shoot it into a series, almost all major TV stations came to the door, hoping to get cooperation, but Yanhuang Film Company finally chose its strategic partners Disney and Pyramen G.

It is not easy to produce the TV series version of "My Captain, My Group", especially in the selection of actors, I was originally going to copy the crew of the film version, but the first problem appeared, director Liang Long picked a pick, so he had to find it again, right? And the three companies have also agreed that the American director and the Chinese director will be the joint director, which also makes it more difficult to find a director. In the end, it was decided that Chinese director Kang Honglei and American director Rob Bowman would jointly serve as the directors, but it took nearly two months to find these two directors, and the delay was not a long time.

The director is confirmed, but a new question arises, what about the protagonist? Because Duan Yihong and Leslie Cheung won the Oscars for Best Actor and Best Supporting Actor respectively, it is definitely impossible to shoot a series, so the candidate for the leading role has to be found again. In this way, it took nearly two more months before it was finally decided that Li Youbin would play the role of dead and dead, and Pu Cunxi would play the role of annoyance.

At this point, the crew can finally be filmed, but there are still many headaches during the filming process. The two directors, Kang Honglei and Rob, often have controversies because of their different concepts, which delays the filming very much. In addition, many special effects technologies in TV dramas have to be inherited from movies, so there are also many problems in the connection of special effects, and many scenes are reshot in the post-production process.

However, the crew did not disappoint, the film was finally completed this year, and it will be released this year. In a sense, "My Captain, My Regiment" is an epoch-making film, because he is the first Chinese-themed drama series to appear in the United States.

The TV series has not yet been broadcast, but proper publicity is essential, but in fact, the three companies have not done much publicity, because "My Leader, My Group" is too well-known, and since the original decision to shoot, there have been countless fans looking forward to it. Therefore, what the three companies have to do is to tell the audience that "My Captain, My Group" has been filmed, and it can be seen at eight o'clock every night when you turn on the TV.

Liang Long came back this time, to participate in a press conference, to promote the series, in the face of reporters' questions, Liang Long said: "In fact, I, like all of you, have not watched the serial version of "My Captain My Group", but I believe that the two directors Kang Honglei and Rob will definitely present us with the most perfect scene, and it is also a work that points directly to the hearts of the people." ”

Duan Yihong has also participated in press conferences many times, and when faced with reporters' questions, he replied like this: "Li Youbin and Pu Cunxi are both famous Chinese actors and my predecessors, I grew up watching their serials, and I believe that their performances will be more impressive than I give everyone." ”

The publicity continued, and Liang Long only attended a press conference before returning to New Zealand, after all, he was inseparable from the later production of "Legend of Doom". However, because the response to the film in the early stage was too great, the publicity effect has been very good, and many fans have begun to write some about the direction of the TV series plot and their expectations for the story on the forum.

One of the fans titled "My Leader, My Dream": In 97, "My Leader, My Regiment" was released, and it felt like a frightening wind to me, which will never be erased in my memory. Looking at Hollywood's military-themed films, "My Commander, My Regiment" is undoubtedly the most special and the most successful. What is special about it lies in the choice of the character, in the heart of the character.

Do I remember when I walked into the movie theater, my first impression was that it was a group of soldiers, not a group of beggars? But as the plot deepened, I gradually realized that I didn't understand war. War is not only about heroism and heroism, but also about the struggle between death, fear, and faith.

After watching "My Captain, My Regiment" in the cinema, I bought another CD, and in the past two years, I have watched it no less than 20 times, but every time I watch it, the changes in the hearts of various characters will bring me new feelings...... It often makes me weave scenes of war in my mind, but people who have not experienced war cannot understand war, so I only have one dream, my regiment commander my dream.

To be honest, I was very upset to hear that the film was going to be made into a series, because I couldn't be sure if Kang Honglei and Rob were capable of directing the film, and I was worried that they would smash the film. Now, the series is about to start, and I have a hint of anticipation in my heart, hoping to see an original story and read the hearts of the people in the war.

The series is about to start, and it has caused a strong response among the audience, and major media have also reported it, the Los Angeles Times wrote: In 97, the box office of "My Captain, My Group" exceeded the one billion mark, how many viewers have watched it? But it's not just people who go to the cinema. It also includes CD sales, pay-per-demand and piracy markets, which are watched by hundreds of millions of moviegoers worldwide. Now that the TV series version is about to start, how many people will stay in front of the TV?

It's a huge number, and it's an incalculable number, but everyone knows it's going to be a terrifying number. In the face of such a strong market advance, ABC TV channels often appear advertisements like this: see you at 8 o'clock late, we will solemnly present "My Captain, My Regiment".

Sophie is also very concerned about these news, because she really relies on this film to really expand her way out in Hollywood. It is true that "Braveheart" has made Sophie gain a lot of popularity, but it gives the impression of being more of a noble princess who is incredibly beautiful, and the performance cannot be said to be very successful. This is not the case with "My Leader, My Group", although she is a supporting actress in this film, she runs through the whole film, and there are more scenes than the male lead. But with few words, he can only pour out his expressions, which makes an extremely deep impression and finally wins the Oscar for Best Supporting Actress.

However, Sophie is a pity, because the TV series version of "My Captain, My Regiment" does not have the role of war correspondent Niya. However, this did not prevent her from paying attention to the news of the TV series, but seeing such a strong response on major forums, Sophie was also a little dizzy: "This is going to be released, how many people have to guard the TV?" ”

"That's what I want." Liang Long laughed, if the ratings are high enough, and a wonderful series will be filmed in China in the future, maybe he will be able to continue to land in the United States.

O818, "My Leader, My Group" will be broadcast at 8 o'clock in the evening, with two episodes a day, a total of 43 episodes.

At 7:50, Liang Long's family stayed in front of the TV, waiting for "My Captain, My Regiment" to start. At fifty-five minutes, Liang Long suddenly received a call from Mark: "Captain, do you know how many people are waiting now?" Liang Long smiled: "Don't sell it to me, there must be 10 million, right?" ”

"You're too much of my regiment leader, my regiment, aren't you? Before the broadcast started, the ratings had already exceeded the 20 million mark, and there will only be more. Mark smiled happily, although the performance of ABC TV over the years is okay, it is not too good, especially the TV series, which is a bit lifeless. But as soon as "My Captain, My Regiment" appeared, it immediately changed this situation.

"Won't it?" Liang Long was stunned, in his previous life, "Prison Break" was far from having such high ratings, this is too crazy, right? In fact, this is inevitable, the influence of the movie version of "My Leader, My Group" is too huge, it can easily capture the audience's appetite, and the soaring ratings can also be explained.

"Damn, I shouldn't have let go in the first place." In contrast, Shirley was a little angry, she knew this, she shouldn't have given in at the beginning, and she should have firmly grasped the broadcast rights in her hands.

At eight o'clock, the TV series was officially broadcast, there was no long and annoying title, only a blank page of paper, on which it was written: We will always miss our comrades-in-arms who gave their lives and blood for the script...... In the lower right corner, the first episode is written.

In the dilapidated old house, the cannon fodder is half-dead and joking...... This scene made Liang Long feel very familiar, although the actors of the film have all been changed, Liang Long is sure that this is his favorite flavor, and it is also the taste of "My Leader, My Group".

In the autumn of 1941, a group of Kuomintang troops broke and retreated, and fled to the city of Chanda in southwest Yunnan. Among them, there are Meng Fanli from Beiping, A Yi from Shanghai, and Milong, a soldier from Northeast China; There are also hemp, bean cakes, snake butts, Kangya, veterinarian Uncle Hao and Hunan people are not spicy......

The soldiers, speaking different dialects of East, West, North and South, were paralyzed, hungry, sick, wailing, and all they thought about every day was a good meal.

Ah Yi was the only officer among them, a major. But he was a soldier who had never fought a war. Only Ah Yi tried to clean up the mess and make these defeated soldiers believe that they were still soldiers. But Ah Yi's efforts were completely ruined by the imagination of a stewed vermicelli with pork and cabbage. The hungry soldiers swept through Zenda, using all means to get the raw materials, ready to feast on them after the extreme starvation.

Meng was annoyed and volunteered to drag his injured leg, limping to the Dongmen Market, he gritted his teeth and stole a fellow's vermicelli, but he was almost surrounded by people who caught up and limped the other leg.

The injury on his leg caused Meng Fan to faint on the street, but fortunately a Sichuan woman named Chen Zui dragged him home. Chen Zui scrubbed Meng's wounds, she said that his brother was from the Sichuan Army, and she had traveled thousands of miles with her brother to Chanda. Drunk heard that Meng was bored and needed sulfonamides, so he volunteered to take out change to buy it on the street. Meng Fan knew that the Sichuan Army had already been wiped out, and he was the only remaining residue of that regiment.

Meng was annoyed and knew that it was difficult for him to face Chen Zui, so he struggled to escape from the drunken courtyard. Before leaving, unable to resist the temptation of hunger, Meng was annoyed and poured the few pieces left in the money jar into his pocket, and copied a bundle of red powder hanging from the beam.

All the Rout had on their minds was pork stewed vermicelli, and they couldn't think of anything anymore. But someone remembered them.

An American-style jeep drove into the shelter, and Yu Xiaoqing, the commander of the regiment with a neat military appearance, stepped out of the car. Yu Xiaoqing said that Shangfeng wanted to give him a regiment of troops, and he didn't want it. Because he's going to organize his own team. He wants to resurrect the heroic and warlike Sichuan army. American machine guns can be given to you, American artillery can be given to you, American tanks can be given to you, as long as the defeated soldiers are willing to become his regiment. If you become his regiment, you can eat fragrant and drink spicy food, and you can get military salaries. The most important thing is that there can be devils to kill!

Got a devil to kill? The hearts of the routs were beating......

The prologue of the story opened, Liang Long's face was filled with a faint smile, in his previous life, he had watched it no less than twenty times, and he was extremely familiar with every detail of the TV series. Although the actors have all changed, as long as this flavor is still there, it is the perfect "My Captain, My Group" in his mind.

ps: Two hundred chapters, thank you guys for your support for so long...... Thank you!
