107 The Emperor of Kung Fu came to Xiangjiang
The entertainment industry is Vanity Fair, and when luck comes, if you meet a good script and director, newcomers can become famous overnight.
If you are unlucky, you choose the wrong script and actors, and even the most awesome director will be hit by the street.
For example, in the past two years, film studios have gained momentum, "The True Color of Heroes" and "A Chinese Ghost Story" have directly established the status of film studios, and Xu Ke has also become a hot commercial film director in Hong Kong.
After losing his old partner Wu Yusen, Master Xu began to train Du Qifeng and Jin Yanghua as successors, and spent 10 million to shoot "City Special Police", but Lao Du thought Wu Yusen's style was too strong, so he boycotted directly, and the two broke up unhappily.
Later, Du Qifeng teamed up with Zhang Jin to make a 19 million "Raid", and Master Xu pouted after watching it: Aside from the 90-minute fight, the whole nostalgic action movie is superficial and boring.
Despite this, Master Xu still added 3 million and remade two gunfire action scenes of "City Special Police", it is said that this pot of soup has been boiled for three months, and the heat should be about the same, but on the night of the test screening, it was a big hit!
In the past, Mr. Xu's movies were sought after, and there was continuous applause and applause during the test screening, but tonight it was unusually quiet, so quiet that Mr. Xu who was sitting in the front row was furious.
It wasn't until the end of the film that there was sparse applause in the theater, and several heads of the Friends of New Art City came to Lao Xu's side.
"Lao Xu, you are so disappointing, what are you shooting?"
"The story is very clichΓ©, there are too many violent and bloody pictures, even if it is not beautiful at all, it also makes people feel a strong bad taste."
"When Wu Yusen was here, the picture you worked together was very beautiful, and now ...... Hey, let's do it for myself. β
"Lao Xu, I can't recommend this film to my friends, I feel very uncomfortable after watching it."
"The story is not touching at all, the writing part is too weak, and the key is that the action is not good-looking."
The last person didn't comment on the film, and directly said, "Du Qifeng's original choice was correct!" β
Friends of New Art City is the base camp of fans of New Art City, and these people in charge have considerable film appreciation, and even they are not optimistic about this film, which is enough to show that "City Special Police" is really average.
Master Xu nodded awkwardly, and after a few simple words, he ran outside to smoke.
I am not optimistic about myself, let alone those professional film critics.
Mr. Xu was smoking, and a staff member ran over, "Boss, run, Director Jin Yanghua was asked by reporters and cried." β
Xu Ke took a look, good guy, Jin Yanghua was surrounded by dozens of reporters, his face was blue, his expression was like a dead father, he was uncomfortable, and he was so scared that Xu Ke smeared oil on the soles of his feet, that is, since "City Special Police", he will never participate in the test screening of his new film again, even if someone else holds a gun on the head and kills him.
Xu Ke slipped away, and Jin Yanghua, who stayed to block the gun, fell into blood mold.
For the next week, he was not only ridiculed by his peers, but also bombarded by a group of reporters.
Why blow him up?
Because the box office of "City Special Police" was only 2 million in the first week.
You read that right, it's not the first day, it's the first week!
This is a big production of 10 million, and 2 million will be sent away in the first week.
One reason is that this guy has been too cheerful recently, and during the battle for the screenwriter of "God of Gamblers", this guy didn't shoot at Zhang Jin, and said that people's "Raid" plagiarized "City Special Police", and said that Du Qifeng was blind.
Well, now that Du Qifeng is blind, he handed over a score of 19 million, what about you, you two jumped up and down with round eyes and only 2 million in the first week, which is not as good as the box office of "Raid" in one day.
Didn't your film studio join forces with Hollywood Industrial Light & Magic, why did we see a five-cent special effect, just this gunfire special effects picture, and we're embarrassed to take it out!
Aren't you known as a 10-million-level big production, where did the filmmakers spend their money, and do you dare to announce the financial details!
Let's sit down and look at the question of who is blind.
PIAPIAPIA SLAPPED ROUND AFTER ROUND, JIN YANGHUA DIDN'T EVEN DODGE, HE COULD ONLY STAND UP TO THE FRONT AND BE BEATEN, THERE WAS NO TRICK, IF HE DIDN'T STAND UP AND TAKE THE BLAME, XU KE WOULD HAVE TO COME FORWARD, WHICH SHOWS THAT HE STILL HAS A VERY PROTECTIVE CONCEPT.
Jin Yanghua's regret should not have been at the beginning, under the rhythm of the reporters of "Jin Weekly", his face was painful and swollen after being beaten by dozens of reporters.
Zhang Jin holds a grudge!
In fact, Zhang Jin also knows that even if he doesn't let people lead the rhythm, the film studio will not have a good time in the next few years, until the appearance of "Smiling Proud Jianghu", which is known as the new martial arts era, the film studio ushered in the second hegemony.
Zhang Jin had the intention to shoot "Smiling Proud Jianghu" before Xu Ke, but he got reliable news: After Xu Ke intentionally or unintentionally tossed to learn E, "Smiling Proud Jianghu" has been in the preparatory stage. Half of the 10 million investment claimed by "City Special Police" to the outside world went into "Smiling Proud Jianghu".
I'm afraid even Xu Ke doesn't know that this preparation has been prepared for several years.
The Xiangjiang film scene in June is very lively, and the concept of summer files is gradually becoming clear.
At the beginning of June, "City SWAT" suffered a tragic Waterloo, which caused the film studio to enter a short period of recuperation.
In mid-June, produced by Yingzhijie Company and directed by Wang Jiawei's directorial debut "Carmen in Mong Kok" was released, the king of literature and art combined his unique image style with traditional underground social action films, and used MTV-style abstract visuals to bring a poetic romantic feeling into this film, thus showing an alternative style that is different from other action movies.
Through "Mong Kok Carmen", Wang Jiawei not only found his own style positioning, but also successfully got rid of the vase label with Zhang Manyu, no longer relying on brushing his face to show off his appearance, but won the audience's recognition with his acting skills, and officially embarked on the acting school to testify.
Jinlong Studio, conference room.
Chen Shaohua was reporting on the recent box office, and Zhang Jin, Yuan Kui, Liu Zhenwei, and Wei Jiahui were sitting on the side and listening carefully.
"The final box office of "City Special Police" was 4.4 million, "Thunderbolt Pioneer" was 8.9 million, and "Mong Kok Carmen" was 11 million. Because of Liang Jiashu, Wang Jing's "The Gambler" was forced to postpone its release by a week, should we also postpone the test screening? β
"Postponement!" Zhang Jin nodded and said: "It doesn't matter if the other films are made, we only recognize "The Gambler", he doesn't want to rob us, I'll let him rob it!" β
"OK, I'll contact the heads of several other theaters and adjust the filming schedule." Chen Shaohua finished recording.
Wei Jiahui lit a cigarette, took a few puffs and said, "What the hell is Wang Jing doing?" β
"He is estimated to be arguing with Fang Yihua now." Zhang Jin sneered.
"Boss, there is a person named Li Zhengdong looking for you."
Lee Jeong-dong? Who is it?
Everyone frowned, but Zhang Jin got up suddenly, "Haha, the Kung Fu Emperor was finally moved by me, and he is willing to come to Xiangjiang, let's go, come with me to greet him!" β
