"V is the most personable killer, monster, samurai and avenger in the world!" Jayton, a well-known film critic for "The Hollywood Reporter", commented on the film "V-Letter".
Indeed, with the premiere of "V Vendtle", Zhou Shaoming knew that David successfully shot this film extremely well.
After holding a celebration banquet for David, the premiere results of "V-Word Vendetta" also came out, with a premiere box office result of 35 million.
David looked at the box office results of this premiere that surprised him, and smiled happily like a child.
Of course, Zhou Shaoming looked at David's expression and understood David's mood at this time. When I made my first successful film, I received people's attention and liked it. Such a mood is far more important than box office results.
Zhou Shaoming couldn't help but smile, and said to David: "David, although such a premiere is already a very good box office result for a rookie director, our film still has more stamina, and we will arrange better publicity in the future to make this movie a popular movie in North America!" ”
Yes, except for the fact that this movie can be released in North America, it is basically impossible to release it in other regions, although it is a pity, but in the end, Zhou Shaoming completed the task assigned by the system.
Zhou Shaoming also won a talented director, this "V-word revenge team" was released at this time, which was particularly important, and the supernova entertainment film and television company's "decisive battle in 2004" plan kicked off.
Listening to Zhou Shaoming's words, David couldn't help but pause and said, "Zhou, what else do you think?" David is very strange, the film he shot at this time has achieved such results, does it still need to be promoted?
No, in Zhou Shaoming's eyes, it is necessary for such a popular film to be released. One more publicity. Yes, on the CBA program, Supernova Entertainment Film and Television has signed an entertainment program with the title "Dancing Killer".
Appears in the shape of a V-shaped mask, wearing a black cape of V and a V-shaped mask. Have an outdoor game at the beginning of spring. In fact, this kind of game is often seen on TV.
Crossing a single-plank bridge, rapids and other games that require courage and wisdom. Of course, Zhou Shaoming didn't replicate such a game like that. It's just the last minute, it's the players who participate, as long as they can pass these games smoothly. A set of V costumes will be given.
This doesn't seem to be creative.,But the climax of this game is the back part.,When you get a set of V costumes,,It's naturally a successful player.,But whoever can succeed in breaking through.,You can compete with the V on stage actor Jim Carrey.。
Win or lose to get Jim Carrey's autograph, but if you win, you can get another special reward.
What reward? Haha, it's a hug from Natalie, the actress of "V for Vendetta"! What a rare opportunity like this.
When Zhou Shaoming said what he thought in his heart. David couldn't help but be stunned in place, looking at Zhou Shaoming in front of him, he couldn't help but feel a little admired.
"Zhou, how did you come up with such a solution?" David was still curious. In David's heart, Zhou Shaoming was the director he admired the most, and he was his boss. However, Zhou Shaoming's thoughts at this time. David was surprised to find that it was no wonder that Zhou Shaoming would succeed in every movie when he was filming. His idea was too surprising.
Zhou Shaoming couldn't help laughing and said, "I'm surprised, how could I come up with this idea?" ”
David listened to Zhou Shaoming's words and couldn't help but nodded.
Zhou Shaoming said truthfully: "Actually, this is also a friend's suggestion, I just made some changes to her suggestion. ”
David's eyes rolled.
Zhou Shaoming was very optimistic about David, and said to David: "Our inspiration comes from life, and it is very difficult to make movies, and not everyone can do it." Now that you have such a talent, starting from every bit of life, although it is difficult to do, you are already halfway there, at least you are now a director with your own successful work. ”
Zhou Shaoming patted David on the shoulder as he said and said, "I've always been very optimistic about you." ”
In the face of Zhou Shaoming's encouragement, David was moved to tears, and suddenly he didn't know what to say.
However, Zhou Shaoming's tone changed, and said: "I haven't mentioned this matter to Jim Carrey and Natalie yet, you are their director, and it is all your credit that these two actors can sign our Supernova Entertainment Film and Television Company, so it is better for you to say this matter." ”
David was stunned, and in the face of the 360-degree change in Zhou Shaoming's tone, David was caught off guard, but David had no reason to refuse at this time. Looking at Zhou Shaoming's appearance, this plan is imperative. Just wait for the time to be arranged, and then come to the game site through Jim Carrey and Natalie.
When Supernova Entertainment announced such news on the Internet, they couldn't help but chant on the Internet, "Director Smith Zhou is also here!" There was an endless stream of applicants.
In the United States, such a game column does not receive much attention at all, but when Supernova Entertainment Film and Television Company held such a show, it became popular.
The workers of CBA Radio had a kind of laughing and crying thoughts, and they were happy that the outdoor game program held in cooperation with Supernova Entertainment Film and Television Company was attended by all citizens. Of course, the enthusiasm for participation is high, and the income from advertising expenses here speaks for itself.
But what? The sign-ups almost didn't crowd the radio door, and the staff was very busy in the face of the sign-ups for the past two days.
Some applicants made the staff very helpless.
There is no age limit for the announcement, but when there are many applicants, the problem arises, because the radio station feels that there are few people participating in such a game column, so it is not necessary.
When some students wanted to participate, they left their contact information, but as the news spread quickly, there were children under the age of teens, or younger, who were going to participate in the game.
In the face of such a young child, of course, the radio registration staff refused on the spot, not to mention that it was okay, after saying that these children did not participate in this game show. I rolled and cried on the spot, and the noisy radio station was not peaceful.
In order to coax these children, the radio station staff did not think less of a way.
But these children are nothing? After the staff became parents, they began to feel like grandchildren, and when they met the elderly who were almost over 100 years old, the staff couldn't help but look at each other.
When an old man heard that he was too old to participate in the game, he couldn't help but point to the staff and say, "I'll tell you, little girl." My granddaughters are older than you, and you weren't born when I participated in the Games! Don't think that you look down on me when I'm old, I'm very the bones!. ”
The old man showed his muscles and posed as he spoke, but when he was careless, his waist twisted, and the old man suddenly screamed as if he were falling apart. The staff was not frightened yet, and hurriedly helped the old man.
The old man was anxious and said to the staff: "This time it was a mistake, a mistake." When I was involved in the athletic meet, at that time. The old man kept talking, and the staff could only put down the work at hand and listen to the old man's story. After speaking. Only then did I know that the old man had been telling other people's stories. The staff did not vomit blood and died on the spot.
When this game column began to become popular, he shouted on the Internet that Zhou Shaoming would also be there. After becoming the target of the challenge of the successful one.
When Zhou Shaoming saw more and more posts like this on the Internet, he couldn't help but have a headache, and it was troublesome. Unexpectedly, the next day, Terry, the director of CBA Radio in the interactive game column, came to Zhou Shaoming.
When Zhou Shaoming saw Terry's arrival, he welcomed him, shook his hand cordially, and said, "Director Terry, welcome to you." ”
Facing Zhou Shaoming's polite words, Terry said bluntly: "Zhou, I won't go around the corner." I've come to you to talk to you about this outskirts game program we're organizing. ”
Zhou Shao asked knowingly, "Oh, what's going on?" It won't be impossible to do this episode, right? ”
Terry heard Zhou Shaoming's words and said, "Because many viewers and netizens now want you to appear in this game, I came here to discuss with you." ”
Zhou Shaoming smiled bitterly for a while: "Terry, I can't play with swords well, if everyone comes to challenge me, then our Natalie's hug will be worthless." Zhou Shaoming hurriedly shook his hand and said with a smile.
Terry said with a serious look: "Zhou, don't shirk it, our radio station has cooperated with your Supernova Entertainment Film and Television Company for so long, you just show your face in this issue and go on stage, it's a big deal that the column recommended by our recent film and television works will give your company movies a promotion for free, what do you think?" ”
Zhou Shaoming's eyes lit up, for a radio station like CBA, with such an attractive policy, how could Zhou Shaoming refuse again. Think about the cost of advertising a film and television work for 10 minutes on a local radio station, which can't catch up with the advertising cost of a well-known national radio station like CBA for tens of seconds. Especially during prime time, the cost is a world of difference.
After seeing Zhou Shaoming's promise, Terry couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.
On the second day of the release of "V Venddetta", tickets in theaters were quickly sold out. For such sales results, it is expected.
In the face of a hero like V, many netizens commented: "He is very romantic, and there is even a lot of pyrotechnics mixed in the explosives he used to destroy the Capitol building." At that moment, the allure city was alarmed, and everyone looked up and watched, and there was a fire tree and silver flower in this gloomy world. He turned revenge into a festival. He brings light. ”
When many viewers who have watched "V for Vendetta" still remember that scene vividly, V used a song "Overture 1814" at the beginning, this moment is so thrilling.
Remember David's words? At that time, David, who was just debuting for us, said amazingly that "V Venddetta" would definitely be a success, yes, David did it, and the movie he shot was also recognized by the audience. The Washington Post.
Netizen Jian said, "How long has it been since you experienced a movie that makes your blood boil and makes you feel like shouting loudly to vent?" Every pore of the body breathed heartily, and the blood in every vein was magma about to erupt, scorching and scorching. Regarding a good movie, in fact, the highest praise, in my opinion, is the four words "stand and applaud". ”
In the theater, when people see the last moment, they can't help but sigh at the V on the screen. Such a hero, although he finally lay down, but he woke up countless Vs to stand up and let the country of that era on the screen regain its light, for such a hero, in addition to applause, it is still applause.
As soon as a film like "V for Vendetta" was released in North America, a film that met the appetite of North America quickly became a movie that the audience paid attention to. The release on the second day was not much worse than the premiere on the first day. In the end, it was recorded with a box office score of 31 million.
For such box office results, it is a bit small for a director like Zhou Shaoming, but for David, the new director of Supernova Entertainment Film and Television Company, it can be said to be a shot in the arm.
When David successfully filmed this "V-Word Vendetta" movie, he began to be full of confidence, and he began to worry about whether he could make this movie well and disappoint Zhou Shaoming? It seems that the fact is that David did.
After the release of "V Vendtle", Supernova Entertainment Film and Television Company continued its previous business model. When this movie was successful, it immediately launched jewelry and clothing about V, and the continuation of such cultural products is a kind of income for Supernova Entertainment Film and Television Company.
When people were still silent in the heroic thoughts of V. In the face of these jewelry and clothing, how can you hold your heart?
In addition to talking about heroism in the hot-blooded movie "V Vendtle", some netizens began to discuss the political ideas in it.
Netizen Wujian wrote on the Internet: "It's been a long time since I've seen such a wonderful movie. You like political philosophy, and there is a question in it that makes you think, "If fear is a tool to maintain power, should people use violence as a weapon?" If you like equality and freedom. Civil rights, including the protection of minority rights (such as homosexuality) and opposition to state censorship. support for freedom of speech, and so on.
If you like to chew words and play with words, there are verses that seem to rhyme and non-rhyme, and there are Shakespeare's lines in them. If you like visual stimulation and auditory enjoyment, you just want to watch the excitement and listen to the movement. There are grand explosions, "The Matrix" style of glamorous fights, melancholy Crymeariver, Tchaikovsky's 1812 Overture. If you're a fan of acting, then Natalie Portman's performance in the movie will definitely satisfy you. Her role in the film has a considerable emotional span, from humiliation to moving, from calm to disbelieve, she grasps it all well.
This movie is the best I feel she's played. Not only her, but several supporting characters in it are outstanding from casting to performance, especially the ChiefInspectorFinch. ”
For this movie, it is more about the audience's appreciation of such a wonderful movie, appreciating the gorgeous action scenes in it, and appreciating the ideological content in it.
In the face of such a movie, Supernova Entertainment Film and Television Company once again set off a small movie climax in North America in March!
Among the films released this month, except for Warner's previously released "The Police Couple", which barely had a premiere of 30 million, there are basically no other films that can compare with "V for Vendetta".
However, the box office of the movie "The V-Word Vendetta" in North America is less than 90 million, and for "V-Word Vendetta", it has attracted as much as 60 million in two days of release.
What other movie that was released at the beginning of the year in North America could compare to "V for Vendetta", a movie with strong potential?
With the exception of The Passion of the Christ, it reached 80 million in its premiere and became one of the most successful films of the year in North America with a box office of 370 million.
There is also another film from Supernova Entertainment Film and Television Company, "Untouchable", which can be compared to the "V for Vendetta" movie.
Due to its global distribution, "Untouchable" is only a small-scale literary comedy, but it has achieved a surprising result of 230 million in North America, and the global box office has a box office result of 290 million. It became one of the films of the year that began to be full of praise.
And "V Vendtle" continued the strong popularity of Supernova Entertainment Film and Television, and began to reach 60 million box office results in North America within two days.
The audience and the media are constantly applauding such a movie with political ideas, gorgeous work, and a movie that makes people's blood boil.
Zhou Shaoming, who was sitting in the office, couldn't help but smoke a cigar and gently exhaled a puff of cigarette, it seems that at the beginning of 2004, the development of supernova entertainment film and television was very smooth.
After the success of "Untouchable" directed by himself, "V Vendtle" also lived up to expectations and won the audience's early recognition, and now the audience's obsession with V is not ordinarily high.
In addition, Tesla filmed "Hulk 2" again, and the second movie of Supernova Entertainment Film and Television Company's "Battle 2004" can also be released smoothly in the later period.
Zhou Shaoming seems to be a lot more relaxed, because at this time, for Zhou Shaoming himself, he has more experience in the theme of filming, in addition to commercial films, he can also skillfully bring the genre of good literary comedy to the audience.
And for Supernova Entertainment Film and Television Company, it was a good start at the beginning of the year, with a good start, as if half the success. Zhou Shaoming's mood couldn't be unhappy! (To be continued......)
