"Ladies and gentlemen, it is a very, very honorable honor to invite so many friends to come here today, and on behalf of the members of the entire crew of "The True Colors of Men", I would like to express my sincere thanks to all my colleagues and media friends who have come here! Thank you all for your support! ”

Chen Musheng stood up and spoke in the warm applause of the audience, the smile on his face could not be concealed at all, and his whole face was red, as if a poor sling had just won 5 million, and from then on he could become the general manager, become the CEO, marry Bai Fumei, and go to the peak of life.

Of course, no one would laugh at him or look down on him, because he was fully qualified to be so excited.

As the only Chinese director who has made a single film with a box office of more than 200 million US dollars after Li Yan's "Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon", and is also a real director of urban commercial films, Chen Musheng is absolutely qualified to say: "Lao Tzu is hanging!" ”

What's more, the drama "The True Colors of a Man" is a very pure representative of Hong Kong films, not the model of a multi-country and multi-regional co-production like "Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon", which makes people feel particularly magical.

Therefore, this time, although Chen Musheng was full of red faces, he seemed to be a little too excited, he didn't seem so light-hearted, and he regarded money and glory as if he were idle, but no one on the scene despised him for being superficial, and no one disdained him, on the contrary, after he made a speech, everyone immediately crackled and applauded, and almost all of them gave him extremely high courtesy.

No way, commercial movies. In fact, it's similar to sports competition, even if it is rated as a piece of by many people after it is released, but as long as the box office is high, it is like playing ugly, but it finally won the championship, and the winner should not be criticized, because the result is above all else.

When the applause subsides. Chen Musheng sighed with a smile again: "Forgive me, I really can't control my excitement, because for me, this work can get such good results as it is now, in fact, it is also beyond my expectations." ”

He paused, and in the laughter of everyone, he looked at Xie Tingfeng, Tang Xiaoshi, Wu Jing, and Fang Group Ming, who were sitting on his left and right...... and so on, and then smiled sincerely and said: "A play can be successful, although the role of the director is very large. But it is also inseparable from the full performance of the actors, as well as the joint efforts of many behind-the-scenes personnel, which I believe everyone understands! ”

Just when everyone nodded silently. He raised his voice abruptly: "So." I would also like to say thank you to all the cast and crew of this film for their hard work and dedication. You are all the best, and I sincerely hope that we can continue to work together. ”

The last sentence was almost shouted, which also fully showed his sincerity, suddenly. The audience immediately burst into thunderous applause, and the leading actors on the stage also smiled and applauded, and the atmosphere of the scene became more enthusiastic for a while.

After finishing this somewhat routine testimonial, Chen Musheng's excitement was finally released a little, and the red light on his face faded a little.

When the applause subsided. He pushed his glasses, coughed lightly and said, "Okay." I believe that you will not be too interested in listening to my nonsense, especially journalists, hehe, therefore, we have invited Mr. Jiang Zhiqiang of Anle Pictures, the international distributor of this film, to come to the stage to give us a brief introduction to the specific box office data of this film around the world. ”

"Bang Bang ......"

Needless to say, when everyone heard Chen Musheng say this, they immediately showed strong interest, at least, the reporters present were definitely very happy.

Your sister, I always hear Huanyu announce how much the box office has increased and how much the total box office has reached, but in fact, even these reporters, they are not very clear about how much box office the movie "The True Colors of Men" has achieved around the world, they only know the data in the mainland, Hong Kong, Macao and Taiwan, and other countries and regions, so there is really no way to figure it out one by one.

So, now that I hear that Jiang Zhiqiang, the "promoter of Chinese movies", is going to announce specific box office data around the world, the reporters are excited! Of course, I immediately applauded vigorously.

Well, in fact, this link is also a topic that most of the guests present are very interested in, after all, everyone is an insider in the Hong Kong entertainment industry, who wouldn't care about this work that has created the peak of the box office of Hong Kong films, what kind of anti-heaven method is?

You must know that with the strong gold-attracting performance of "The True Colors of Men", the entire Chinese film industry is now discussing a question, that is, should it be better to learn from Li Yu to shoot classical martial arts, such as "Hero", "Wuji", and "The City is Full of Golden Armor"? Or is it better to learn "The True Colors of Men" to make urban action movies?

In any case, as another Chinese-language film with a global box office exceeding $200 million, "The True Color of a Man" must be on the same level as "Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon" at least in terms of revenue, and the latter has led the 'blockbuster trend' and 'classical martial arts trend' in the mainland film industry for several years.

For example, "Hero", "Ambush on All Sides", "Wuji", "Night Banquet", "The City is Full of Golden Armor", ...... These so-called big productions with mixed reputations actually have a characteristic, that is, classical + martial arts, and this characteristic is precisely because the directors refer to Li Yu's "Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon", because people have made a lot of dollars and won the Golden Globe and Oscars!

To be honest, the blockbuster model in the Chinese film industry is really hard to evaluate, because in addition to the two similar styles of action/history and classical/action, many so-called famous directors, they don't know which direction to throw money in, and the so-called Olympic films and big productions have all become classical/action in one go, which is simply a typical life of those who learn from me, and death of those who resemble me!

Fuck your sister, the blockbusters I watch every year are all played by those few people, and almost all of the content of the performances are court dramas with changed vests, does this Nima still want people to live?

Your sister, can't you learn from Hollywood, and really work hard to make some big-budget disaster movies, action, adventure films, horror, thrillers, suspense films, and other genre films?

Yes, before the success of "The True Colors of Men", almost no one in the Chinese film industry thought about making a big production outside of historical/action films, because this thing is not good at it, and everyone is not confident and does not believe that urban action movies/police movies can achieve excellent results of breaking 200 million US dollars in the world.

But now, there has been a trend of research and imitation in the circle, and many big directors, famous directors, and everyone has begun to study the prospects of action/adventure films, after all, there are already lessons from the past!

Therefore, when Jiang Zhiqiang appeared, the applause of the audience was simply deafening, hundreds of reporters and hundreds of insiders, as well as their huge entourage, everyone applauded vigorously, making Jiang Zhiqiang, who had to stride onto the rostrum, very happy.

As the saying goes, people are in good spirits when they are happy, and Jiang Zhiqiang has made a lot of gains this time! As the recommender of this film in the European and American markets, he can extract several percentage points from the total revenue of Huanyu, which is equivalent to his net income of tens of millions.

Then, because of this action, he once again gained strong attention in the Asian film circle, and all film production companies, including many film companies in Japan and South Korea, almost took the initiative to contact him and curry favor with him, hoping that he could sell his company's works to Europe and the United States through his hands, and also said that the share amount was negotiable, which was his real gain!

Therefore, Jiang Zhiqiang, who is not good-looking, really has no reason to be unhappy, as soon as he came on stage, he shook hands and hugged Chen Musheng with a smile on his face, and then there was not much nonsense, and he spoke directly in Cantonese: "I remember that when this drama was first established, I told Director Chen that I also want to invest in it, because Director Chen is very good at this play, it is not an old-fashioned Hong Kong police and gangster film model, and most of them will be very popular, but unfortunately, Lin Sheng (Huanyu Boss) also has a very strong vision, and I was politely rejected by him!" ”

Chen Musheng said modestly: "Jiang Sheng has a good reputation, in fact, I didn't expect to have this achievement." ”

At this time, Lin Xiaoming, who was also sitting in the audience, just smiled, looking very happy, but in fact, he was secretly scolding in his heart: "Nima is pure, if you were really optimistic about this drama at that time, Lao Tzu would still consider a yarn?" I can't ask for it! Don't worry about being afraid that you won't be able to recover the cost! ”

Yes, when filming this drama at that time, he planned to pull Anle and Meiya to do it together, but unfortunately, as soon as Jiang Zhiqiang and Meiya's boss heard that they were going to invest 60 million Hong Kong dollars, they immediately felt that they had nothing to gain, and they might even lose money, so they simply refused.

In the end, after Lin Xiaoming touched his nose, after a long time of struggle and thinking, he made up his mind to take a gamble - start shooting.

Of course, he won't say anything about the past, because saying it is equivalent to slapping An Le and Meiya in the face, which is not good for him, so it is better to let him put up gold.

After all, from another point of view, it also happens to show that you have a good eye, doesn't it?

Lin Xiaoming's careful thoughts, of course the people present didn't know, so after they smiled, they still looked at Jiang Zhiqiang and waited for him to continue.
