Chapter 789: Make it up
For Fujiwara, Sun Peng really values it.
The two singers Sun Peng, Aoki Kasumi, are friends, because it is unlikely or even impossible for him to write Japanese songs in the future, but an actor like Fujiwara, who has a personality, and excellent acting skills, is sometimes very important to a director.
Therefore, for Fujiwara's worries, Sun Peng must explain patiently.
After eating the meal, everyone was quite happy.
However, when Sun Peng was gathering with friends in Tokyo and enjoying the exquisite meal prepared by Fujiwara, his cousin Lin Lin, who was far away in the capital, only felt restless and confused in the cinema at this time......
"Wow, that's cool!"
When he walked out of the screening hall, a young man who looked like he was eighteen or nineteen years old and said excitedly to his companions: "Especially the part after Lin Lin entered the restaurant, it was simply too handsome...... Obviously, let's go back and see it again, shall we? ”
Regarding his suggestion, the little girlfriend who came out next to him didn't give face at all: "Hmph, I'm not interested, it's just that it's not interesting to kill around, and some places look so disgusting......"
"Huh? No way? ”
In the little boy's surprised scream, Lin Lin couldn't help but press the already low big hat, and hurriedly walked out - not because he was afraid that the audience around him would recognize him, but because of the expressions of his mother and uncle at this time!
After coming out of the theater, everyone got into Lin Lin's car.
"Hoo ......"
As if he finally had a chance, Uncle Sun Qicheng exhaled a long breath, and said in a deep voice with a somewhat unpleasant face: "Linlin, this movie you made this time ......"
Before Sun Qicheng finished speaking, Lin Lin had already preemptively said: "I know uncle, this movie is indeed a little bloody, and the dialogue in it is a little vulgar in some places, but your nephew has his own ideas!" Although he doesn't have any qualifications in the director's profession, someone has already offered 30 million for a script on the movie......"
There is no solution to this question, Lin Lin can only show her attitude.
“……”
After listening to Lin Lin's words, no one said anything more.
Sun Yanling, who originally wanted to say something, opened her mouth and swallowed those words back at this time. They are elders, and they can indeed give some opinions to their nephew's new works, but just like Linlin said, Sun Peng can sell tens of millions of dollars in a script now, and you need a layman to give advice?
So in the end, it was the eldest aunt who smiled and said, "Okay, let the young people decide their own affairs, we old bones, just take a look at the side......"
……
"Today, I don't know how many phone calls I received, either because reporters wanted to interview you, or because they wanted to know how you reacted...... Xiaopeng, many people say that you are about to suffer a heavy failure! ”
"A crushing failure?"
Looking at the handsome young man in the big mirror in front of him, Sun Peng first raised his eyebrows, looked sideways, and then casually replied to the second sister on the phone: "The box office on the first day is 74 million, although it is a little worse than the other three masterpieces, but it is not a tragic failure, right?" How much is the investment in our film? ”
"Tsk, people don't care about this!"
After a pause, Sun Ya said with some anxiety: "The key is that your last two movies are too high at the box office!" Spirited Away broke the record, and now Frozen's global box office is almost $1.3 billion! Do you know what this concept is? So now many people on the Internet are saying that you are only suitable for writing scripts, not for being a director...... Hey, are you listening? What are you doing? ”
Hearing Sun Yan's unhappy voice, Sun Peng's attention finally withdrew from the mirror, and said with a smile: "Sister, I'm about to leave for the awards ceremony and walk the red carpet, what's the matter when I go back?" ”
“……”
After being silent for a moment, Sun Ya sighed and said, "Okay, I know you have a big heart...... But if you have time, you still post a few Weibo posts to promote it! We can't say about the foreign box office, but the domestic box office is now supported by your fans, so you can't take it lightly. ”
"Okay, I see."
After a few perfunctory words to the second sister, he hung up the phone, Sun Peng turned around and looked at his assistant: "Sister Chang, I'm handsome enough, right?" ”
"Nonsense, can tens of thousands of clothes not be handsome?"
Holding the mobile phone, Liu Chang said without raising his head.
The set of clothes on Sun Peng's body now was customized by Liu Chang and Zheng Jia when they went to New York, and they customized several sets at a time. Because in addition to today's Japanese Film Academy Awards, there are also the Oscars and Grammys in the United States, as well as the Magnolia Awards in China waiting for him, and in terms of Sun Peng's current identity and status, Liu Chang and Sun Ya are not allowed to appear in his clothes four times!
Although Sun Peng himself didn't care, he saw the handsome guy in the mirror......
"Well, it feels good!"
Appreciating himself again, Sun Peng just wanted to say something to his assistant, but Liu Chang had already raised his head: "Boss, the situation in China really doesn't look good!" Let's not talk about the criticism of your movie on the Internet, but it is the Chinese New Year file...... "Kill Bill" may really choose the wrong schedule. ”
“……”
Listening to Liu Chang's words, Sun Peng was speechless.
On the first day of the Lunar New Year, the most important festival of the year in China, it is also a happy day for family reunions, and the most popular in the cinema are undoubtedly comedies, sci-fi, action and other big productions, and revenge movies like "Kill Bill...... Or a revenge movie full of blood plasma, it seems that it is indeed a little inappropriate.
In fact, it wasn't only Liu Chang who thought so, but they also persuaded Sun Peng from Forbidden City Pictures and Wei Xiaolin.
Merely......
Now that it has been released, Sun Peng has no need to regret it, just nodded and said: "Maybe I really didn't think about it this time, so it's better to take it as a lesson!" However, whether this movie is a failure or not cannot be proved by just looking at the box office on the first day in China...... Haha, besides, is the box office of 70 million a day really low? ”
"Of course it's not low, but it's very average to be ranked fifth on the first day of release."
Liu Chang's response to his boss was a sentence that pierced his heart.
If it's the first day of release in normal times, more than 70 million a day is not very good, but it is definitely not bad, at least for those non-big productions, it is a qualified result. But don't forget, yesterday's release of "Kill Bill" was the first day of the Lunar New Year, and it was the day when it set a single-day box office record of 1.9 billion!
The box office on the first day of the Lunar New Year this year was 1.4 billion, and the champion was a "magic blockbuster" adapted from a story in Liaozhai, with a box office of more than 500 million in a single day, and the second place A love movie also had more than 300 million, so the more than 70 million of "Kill Bill" is inconspicuous.
So after listening to Liu Chang's words, Sun Peng's heart ached.
Yang Tian let out a long sigh, he waved his hand with a blank face and said: "It's okay, it's okay, wait until you brush your face at the awards ceremony, maybe the box office lost in China can be made up in Japan......"
