Chapter 327: The First Battle of the Chinese New Year, You Live or Die!
In October, as insiders thought, the box office still did not improve.
However, on the bright side, it is very different, and some articles have already appeared on the market.
"The carnival of movie fans, this year's Chinese New Year file will be the strongest in history."
"Nearly 30 good films gathered for the Chinese New Year!"
"From next month, it will already be in the Lunar New Year, fans should prepare their wallets."
These drafts can't be said to have ulterior motives, after all, this is also a reality, and since November, the competition for the New Year stalls has begun.
But do you all agree with that?
Beijing, Huayi Company, at this time, a reporter is asking for proof of this matter.
"Mr. Wang, many people have been saying recently that this year's Chinese New Year stalls have been greatly advanced, is this the case?"
"Well, of course, this year's competition is definitely the fiercest!"
"Mr. Wang, as the largest private film and television company in China, Huayi's current actions ......"
"Needless to say, I have prepared a number of blockbusters for the Chinese New Year this year, including "Parasite" starring Fan Bingbing and Zhang Jiahui, as well as Feng Xiaogang's "Assembly Number", which gathers many well-known movie stars, plus the Spring Festival file later, our "King of Kung Fu" with Hollywood will also meet the audience......
This string of titles came out of Wang Zhonglei's mouth, and the reporter was very happy, it can be seen that this trip is not in vain, and this year's Chinese New Year file is definitely very interesting.
However, this sent the reporter away, and the Wang brothers closed the door, so there was another plan.
"Big brother, at the moment, many sailors are pushing the New Year file forward, what do you mean by that?"
"What else can you mean? There are too many films, I'm afraid what you want to say is, this is done by Red Star who has 3 films? ”
"Obviously."
"But it's good for us."
The brothers noticed some details before, and the New Year's file didn't come out, so someone posted an article to test it, and later many companies and even theaters were talking about it, and this year's New Year file is the longest and earliest.
The film and television industry also needs the spirit of Wang Po selling melons, and the most important thing is to boast, directly saying that her melons are good, which is not beautiful, but as now, emphasize how the Chinese New Year file is, and then what difficulties we Chinese filmmakers will face, how difficult, and how fierce the competition is.
What will fans think when they see such news?
It's a good means, there is no word about selling movie tickets, but the atmosphere of the whole market is set off.
Since so many companies are talking about this, the Wang brothers can also profit from it, so why not do it. As the boss of a domestic private entertainment company, do you want to go against everyone?
Therefore, even if you know that this matter is boring, then you will follow the car, and you have to sit down.
However, their methods were also prepared early.
"Brother, how will Red Star deal with it?"
"Well, I don't know. However, if our brothers don't get him, we will be really angry! ”
"That's right! The chibi that the girl filmed, what the hell, the final ending, it's depressing to watch. ”
"That's right! Let that girl be finished soon! ”
The two brothers talked about it again, and they talked about "Red Cliff War" again, thinking about it, the final ending of this TV series caused a certain amount of harm to the two brothers, and they actually held a grudge until now.
Of course, this is definitely not the main reason, the Wang brothers want to kill Bai Shiqiu, this has been set a long time ago, and the shopping mall is a drama of life and death.
In the next November, Hua Yi will be on "Parasite", but how to fight?
……
Beijing, Wudaokou, Haidian District.
There are many famous schools here, and some people joke that any street sweeper has a master's degree. Of course, the joke can't be true, but it does say something.
But in such a place, wouldn't it be nice to open a movie theater?
"I would like to invite the famous movie star Mr. Bai Shiqiu, Miss Wan Qian and Mr. Yu Dong, the president of Bona...... Cut the ribbon for our cinema! ”
It is very festive, the red carpet, the red flower basket, the Jingwei girl is the host, under a big plaque, the ribbon-cutting is announced.
Needless to say, a newly opened movie theater, and since there are Bai Shiqiu, Wan Qian and Yu Dong, it must be the theater that he Lao Bai, the third master and Yu Dong came out of.
The big signboard is very eye-catching, and the most special thing is the three big letters on it, ZHB.
By the way, our cinema is called ZZHB cinema, as for what does ZZHB mean...... China Film, Red Star, Bona, the initials.
It's really called this name, and there's no way, this name is really embarrassing, he once held Lao Bai back, he wanted to simply call it orz cinemas. At that time, Yu Dong thought that this letter spelled very thoughtfully, and it was not bad to use this, but he was stopped by Wan Qian, which was regarded as preventing a tragedy.
Anyway, our Red Star's own theater is up, of course, this is actually the third one, the first one is in Bai Shiqiu's hometown, because of the cost, it is relatively cheap, and it can be used for experiments, and the result is a great success.
Our own theater can show Red Star's own films, Bai Shiqiu's celebrity effect is very strong in his hometown, and many of Red Star films and television are from the Northeast.
The second one was opened in Harbin City, and the third one can be regarded as arriving in the capital, and Haidian, which is relatively low-cost.
This time the ribbon was cut, Bai Shiqiu of course pulled the hero Comrade Xiaowan over, she saw this theater, and she was so happy in her heart, her eyes were crooked when she smiled.
Then cut it, everyone......
Three, two, one!
Click, at the same time the sound of a salute, ZHB's first cinema in Beijing was opened.
Such a ribbon-cutting ceremony is definitely not only a kind crowd of onlookers.
"Bai Shiqiu, can you tell me about this Chinese New Year, a few movies of your Red Star?"
"Of course you can, first of all, we have prepared our works with the most serious attitude this year, and the first thing we will meet you will be "The Third Man", which is a masterpiece of Brother Cheng'er, and it is an honor for me to be able to act......
I have to say that Bai Shiqiu's ability to deal with reporters has increased.
Red Star Film and Television currently has 4 films, "The Third Man" in November, "Tough Guy" in early December, followed by "Assembly Number", and the one filmed for Qianqian will be scheduled until next year, and it will be released at the end of the Spring Festival.
It's quite okay, all four films can be released in such a schedule, and they all have a certain schedule, which is very face-saving.
However, the reporters noticed something else.
"Bai Shiqiu, why have you become so fat now?"
"yes, both chins."
"Didn't you keep your mouth shut?"
Bai Shiqiu hasn't appeared for a while, except that he was photographed with Yang Mi before, and as soon as he appeared this time, the double chin was obvious.
Wan Qian came over to help at this time, "Because of filming, Lao Bai needs to gain weight in order to make these movies, I can't recognize it, haha......"
As soon as Wan Qian said this, the reporters were naturally attracted to the past, and they also talked about what kind of drama it was, so of course they mentioned the two, one of which is "The Third Man", and the other, of course, is the movie between the two people.
It's a good time to get the word out.
As for Bai Shiqiu, he didn't say anything, but also explained, "Filming requires me to gain weight, isn't it trying to lose weight, but weight loss, everyone knows, it's really not easy to ......"
It's a little embarrassing to say, but it naturally resonates with everyone.
Yes, it is indeed not easy to lose weight, and many reporters have also talked about it, and various weight loss experiences have gathered at this ribbon-cutting ceremony, and the Jingwei girls have also come over to chat.
Yu Dong watched from the side, and said in his heart, Lao Bai is really powerful, don't care about anything, he can give you some topics.
The topic of weight loss is almost eternal, and Bai Shiqiu's weight loss plan this time, he estimates that it will take half a year, but it can't be the kind of crazy diet or what diet pills to take, it hurts the body, and the rebound is fast.
But some reporters didn't forget the important thing and asked: "By the way, I heard that Huayi also has a movie released in November, called "Parasite", this ...... Looking at some of the introductions, it seems to be somewhat similar to your "The Third Man". ”
Here it is, the question has finally come.
Wan Qian looked at Lao Bai, and she had long wanted to ask in her heart, what are you going to do with Lao Bai?
Bai Shiqiu is still smiling, he is fat now, and he is quite cute when he smiles, "I can't talk about this kind of thing, but I only dare to say one thing, I also participated in the screenwriting of our Red Star's "The Third Man", and I and our entire team are absolutely responsible for our works." ”
As soon as these words came out, all the reporters understood, Bai Shiqiu was saying that he didn't copy it on his side, so on the other hand, Hua Yi's side copied it.
Of course, it is not completely said, it is all up to comprehension.
After the ribbon-cutting ceremony, the reporters went back to write, what should the others do, and Bai Shiqiu and Wan Qian were left, the two of them were in the car, and they went home to the garage and didn't get out of the car.
"Lao Bai."
"Qianqian, just say whatever you want."
"Okay, can I say I'm jealous of Gao Yuanyuan?"
"Huh? It's not necessary. ”
"To be honest, did you and Gao Yuanyuan rekindle their old relationship when they were filming?"
"How is that possible? Your husband and I ......"
"Look at what scares you, hehehe......"
It must be said that Bai Shiqiu really sweated.
Wan Qian looked at her man, "This time it's Gao Yuanyuan vs. Fan Bingbing." ”
"Hehehe...... Qianqian, you are really good at getting to the point. Bai Shiqiu really smiled.
Wan Qian also laughed, but suddenly said, "You won't let me go to war because I'm not beautiful enough for them?" ”
"Ahem......" Bai Shiqiu was choked and coughed.
Wan Qian's smile deepened, but her movements were more swift, and she directly broke Lao Bai's face, "Love me." ”
Then he kissed him fiercely.
Bai Shiqiu was a little frightened, but he also responded immediately, he could fully understand that Qianqian's heart was empty at this time......
Only love her.
SUV with a lot of space.
After a long time......
"Lao Bai, how about losing weight like this?"
"This ...... This is the legendary use of life to lose weight, right? ”
"Hahaha...... Dead old white, stinky old white ......"
Then, the car creaked again.
……
During the time when Bai Shiqiu and Wan Qian were studying weight loss plans, many things were also going on step by step.
"The Third Man" and "Parasite" are both engaged in some film viewing meetings, for theaters and reporters, but in this way, Huayi suddenly had a hard time.
"Regarding the plagiarism of the movie "The Third Man" on our movie "Parasite", we Huayi Company strongly condemn it here, and hope that Red Star Film and Television will stop the bad infringement!"
"As for the evidence of plagiarism, we have found as many as 17 similarities so far!"
"Next, I would like to invite the film's director, Mr. He Ping, to speak."
This is Huayi's press conference, which is strongly condemned, talking about the plagiarism of "The Third Man" by Red Star Film and Television's "The Third Man", which is lively at this time.
"The script of the work "Parasite" is my original! I'm really sad! Someone is so shameless to plagiarize! ……”
He Ping, a well-known film director in China, received rave reviews for his "Swordsman in Shuangqi Town", and in recent years, his "Heroes of Heaven and Earth" has also gathered big names. At present, in Huayizhong, his status is like that of a guest.
This time "Parasite" is another masterpiece of He Ping after many years, but it turned out that it was plagiarized by "The Third Man".
Of course, it is strongly condemned, and besides, He Ping also said.
"We reserve the right to resort to the law! I hope that Red Star Film and Television will stop the precipice! ”
Hearing this, the reporters were crazy, and everyone knew that this year's Chinese New Year battle had begun, and it was so exciting as soon as it started......
