Chapter 299: One Billion Box Office Chen Cannon

"The box office exceeded one billion!"

"The box office surpassed "Source Code"!"

For a while, these two concepts really stunned many people, this Chen regret, the ambition is too big! Although everyone knows that his current movies should not hit the streets, and the box office is almost 200 million guaranteed, his concept of a box office of more than 1 billion still makes many people feel that chrysanthemums are hurting.

It is worthy of Chen Cannon!

Sure enough, it lives up to its name.

Of course, so far, many filmmakers and even many fans have put the hope of the first Chinese film box office to exceed one billion yuan on Chen Xi, after all, his movie is the closest to this number, and it is because Chen Xi's movie is really the most promising.

But even so, everyone never thought that Chen Xi would use a comedy to create a box office of one billion yuan...... That's a bit of a joke, isn't it?

Although comedy has always been everyone's favorite genre, the existence of comedy is also an indispensable film genre for many people.

But...... In everyone's concept, if you really want to make a difference at the box office, and even directly confront the more than one billion box office of the current "Avatar", you can only use blockbusters...... It's as if the best means against cavalry is cavalry, and the best means against tanks can only be tanks.

It's just that this is a pity......

How many things had he done before that seemed impossible?

How much of the box office of his movies is incomprehensible to the present day?!

So for a while, there were some people who felt full of expectations because of Chen Xi's words.

But of course, there are also some reporters who want to get to the bottom of it, and now they ask directly: "Director Chen, do you have any plans to let a comedy movie get a box office of one billion yuan?" ”

Of course, it is impossible for Chen Xi to say that I want to rely on propaganda.

Although the promotion of a movie is indispensable, especially in this era, if a movie is not promoted, it is basically a loss to enter the cinema. But...... If this kind of thing is said directly, some people will think that your movie is not good, and it can only be improved by publicity, and movies that promote too much have now begun to become more and more vigilant, and will leave a not very good impression in their hearts.

Therefore, Chen Xi can't share all his thoughts and thoughts.

So he smiled and said: "It mainly depends on the quality of the movie, as well as the right time and place in other places, "Avatar" has proved to us that the mainland film box office market can accommodate a billion yuan box office films, and now it is the foreign film "Avatar", I believe." The billion-yuan box office of Chinese-language films is not far off, and it will come soon. ”

As soon as Chen Xi's words were transferred, the reporters were a little regretful, and many of them naturally heard it, and Chen Xi ignored some things.

He just deliberately jumped over and didn't say anything.

In fact, it is.

Soon someone began to ask a question that many people were interested in: "Director Chen, what do you think of 3D movies?" After Avatar, there are many people who know the concept of 3D movies, will you shoot 3D movies? ”

The success of "Avatar" has indeed stimulated too many people, especially for many Chinese filmmakers who are already good at opportunism.

As a result, the 3D movie trend has been on the rise since then. This is especially true in the impetuous land of China, where the 3D movie "2012", which was basically unsellable in foreign countries and cheated money, almost won 200 million yuan...... Many foreign films have 2D versions abroad, or even no 3D versions, and when they come to China, only the 3D version remains...... Then when you get to the cinema, you will find out that you have been deceived. The so-called 3D in the movie theater, except for the subtitles, nothing else is really 3D......

As a result, in later generations, even movies like "Bride Wars" had to use 3D...... It can well be imagined. To what extent is the so-called 3D proliferation in China?

The consequence of this development is that audiences who have been deceived too much begin to lose confidence in 3D movies.

At the moment, Chen Xi said: "I will also shoot 3D movies. But compared to the so-called 3D movies now, I still think that I need to be more careful and think more about making this kind of film. ”

The reporters all looked at Chen Xi.

Chen Xi continued: "At this stage, if I want to shoot a 3D film, the first thing I have to think about is the technical issues. ”

Chen Xi did not shy away from it, but said directly: "Actually, what I want to say is that after "Avatar", there are many people, including Chinese and foreign filmmakers, who have an exaggerated attitude towards 3D movies, especially some investors, they may see the gap between the price of 3D movie tickets and 2D movie tickets, plus people now have seen the amazing effect of "Avatar", and they will look forward to seeing more 3D movies, so many movies have to be converted to 3D in the later stage, but, I think that some technical problems have not been solved, or there are not enough conditions to solve the situation of rashly breaking into the 3D film market, which only brings irresponsibility to the movie audience, to put it mildly, that is, to use 3D technology to make money, I think this is very bad. ”

"......" Many reporters can't help but marvel in their hearts now, and then they sigh with emotion, to interview Mr. Chen Xi Chen Cannon, it is really very interesting! This guy always has a lot of words with a feeling of being unstoppable, listening to these things he is saying now, it is really able to arouse topics: Chen Xi's words are actually scolding many filmmakers.

In fact, after this launch conference, many filmmakers are saying that Chen Xi denigrates new technologies and hinders the progress of films......

Even some fans were instigated, feeling that Chen Xi was pretending to be B.

It's just that soon they saw one after another so-called 3D movies used to make money, and saw one after another pseudo-3D bad movies, some of which were not even subtitled in 3D, which made people look at it heartbreakingly.

Chen Xi continued: "Of course, if you can solve the technical problems of 3D, I think 3D is also one of the best ways to show the world of cinema in the hearts of filmmakers, and Avatar is a wonderful example, so if I make a 3D movie, I don't make it, and if I do, I will do my best to do my best." ”

After saying this, the reporters really talked about it again.

In Chen Xi's mind, in fact, there are indeed too few movies with good 3D lenses, even if they are counted in Hollywood.

Not to mention "Avatar" for the time being, even a 3D movie that reaches the level of "Pacific Rim" is one less B.

In China, the audience is a little confused, for most people, as long as the things in the movie occasionally have an off-screen effect, so that they can dodge left and right under the shock, then this is a movie with a 3D effect, as if the later "Frozen Man" has no effect at all elsewhere, but when it comes to fighting, weapons fly out of the screen, which makes some people stunned and think that this is too 3D......

China is really doing well in 3D, in fact, there is only Xu Ke alone, "Dragon Gate Flying Armor", "Di Renjie Shendu Dragon King", "Outwitting Tiger Mountain" at least in 3D effect, all have the level of "Pacific Rim" or even surpassed, especially "Shendu Dragon King" is quite good.

And Chen Xi's next blockbuster is also going to be in 3D format, but he will definitely do his best to do his best as he said when facing so many reporters today.

…… After asking a lot of questions, some reporters finally shifted their attention to Huang Bo, Xu Zheng, and Wang Baoqiang, Huang Bo Chen Xi didn't bother to get it, in fact, Huang Bo is a person who is more good at picking scripts, so he can naturally see that the script provided by Chen Xi is still okay, and this is Chen Xi, and he doesn't have to worry about many things at all, so Huang Bo came.

For the combination of these three comedians, everyone is also full of expectations.

After the launch conference of "Thai Embarrassment" ended, it almost set off an uproar among the fan group, and too many people expressed their feelings about some views on this launch conference.

When many fans saw Chen Xi saying that he wanted to use "Thai Embarrassment" to get a box office of 1 billion, they all felt shocked, this Chen Xi is really not ordinary self-confidence! But there are also some fans who still insist on believing in Chen Xi, after all, Chen Xi has brought them too many miracles and shocks, and they feel that this time must be the same.

After that, Chen Xi's attitude towards 3D movies, although it has a warning effect on the world market of 3D movies that has just appeared, still makes everyone feel that Chen Xi seems to be making a bit of a fuss.

These people really realized that what Chen Xi said was right, and that was after a while.

But anyway, these fans now have higher and higher expectations for "Thai Embarrassment", and they want to see this film as soon as possible.

"Thai Embarrassment" also officially started filming at this time, in fact, this is a movie with a series of jokes, but the plot is relatively complete.

This kind of movie is hardly too difficult for Chen Xi, who is used to making movies like "Border Storm", and Chen Xi also plans to finish work after only about 40 days of shooting.

After filming a few scenes in Beijing, "Thai Embarrassment" officially transferred to Thailand for filming, which is the first time Chen Xi has gone to a foreign country to film, although Thailand is not far from China.

Everything for the crew in Thailand has basically been arranged, and after the crew came here, they also put into filming as quickly as possible. (To be continued......)
