Chapter 191: Unstoppable!
October of 06 was the most impactful year for the entire Chinese film industry.
"Superman" swept the whole of China with superb special effects and an almost invincible posture, and in just nine days, it hit a box office of 140 million yuan, making all filmmakers exclaim "The wolf is coming".
But the bosses of Huaxia Cinema Line made a lot of money and smiled.
November 1.
When they combined their box office receipts for October, they were suddenly pleasantly surprised to find that the money they made in the second half of October was almost equal to that of the entire month of September.
Moreover, with the gradual fermentation of popularity, the revenue of "Superman" is far from going downhill, and after the tenth day of release, the box office revenue of "Superman" still maintains an astonishing data of more than 10 million, and this data even reached an exaggerated 17 million on the weekend, which made many experts in China stunned.
They don't know where the limits of "Superman" are, and they don't know what kind of perverted heights this movie can reach!
Just when all the media are focusing on the amazing results of "Superman", "Huaxia Film News" has maintained its usual sobriety, and depicts the tragic situation of those Chinese movies under the crushing of "Superman" with an article "Where is the future of Chinese movies......
The total box office of the three Chinese movies "The Day to Come", "Flowers Bloom in the Summer" and "Dark Gun" is only 5 million!
After seeing this data, many people feel sad......
"This is the irony of an industry, but also the sadness of an era......"
The article "Huaxia Film News" is very pessimistic, but at the same time it is very sharp, so sharp that some readers feel a little angry in their hearts after reading it.
Three movies, five million box office in ten days!
It does sound ironic, but after really digging into the irony, everyone feels that a dark cloud is hanging again.
The relevant departments of Huaxia have a clear regulation for Huaxia cinemas, stipulating that any overseas film must be released in the same period, and Huaxia films must occupy more than 10% of the film schedule!
This regulation was set by the relevant departments specifically to protect the interests of Chinese filmmakers and prevent overseas blockbusters from penetrating the whole of China, and its principle is the same as that of the domestic film protection month.
But......
There are policies above, and there are countermeasures below.
Seeing that "Superman" is so awesome, many directors deliberately changed their schedules in order not to harm their own film interests, and pushed many small-budget movies to the forefront under some legal operations.
The theaters are also very sensible, and naturally cooperate with the change of the screening time of these small-budget movies to the underworld time when there are not many audiences watching at all, well, it is either midnight or dinner time, plus these directors are not well-known and do not have much publicity, so naturally these movies have all become cannon fodder under the game.
Theaters almost every three days draw a movie because of the box office hit, and then release another movie when the movie is drawn, like watching the flowers.
Five million box office in ten days.
It seems ridiculous, but it makes sense......
Some movies are destined to be victims of the big era, aren't they?
This article in "Huaxia Film News" is written in great depth, in-depth analysis of the original pursuit of interests by major majors, and the sadness of the social status quo, which is very depressing.
"Do these movies really suck?"
At the end of the Huaxia Film News, such a question was issued.
However, there are only questions, but there are no answers.
On the Internet, you can hardly find information about these movies, and even if you do, there are only a few sentences of synopsis.
"These films are made by talented directors who don't have a background......"
"They smashed pots and sold iron, and they worked hard to shoot such a work, looking forward to proving themselves in this circle."
"But it's a pity that I fell victim."
"I don't want to criticize what this era is like, I just feel sad."
"I always feel that the world is unfair, some people fail once, like a drizzle, and some people fail once, but they never recover, never have a chance to turn over......"
"The reality is cruel and depressing......"
"I'm one of the lucky ones......"
Feng Kai of "Jinyiwei" faced an interview with the media and said this sentence bluntly, and after finishing speaking, his mood was very heavy.
He revealed the truth.
However, his interview didn't make much of a splash and didn't even make a splash.
"Erdogan has confirmed to join the new film "Cyborg" by emerging Chinese director Django, "Cyborg" will try Hollywood special effects for the first time"
"The blockbuster Chinese sci-fi blockbuster "Mechanical Man" was officially announced for filming, director Django: This is a movie that combines Chinese and Western
The launch conference of "Mechanical Man" announced the blockbuster news: this film will go overseas and become the pride of Chinese films.
……
November 1.
The major social platforms and news pages are full of all kinds of information about "Cyborg......
There was even a special feature for the cutting-edge director Django on the movie channel that night.
"I don't dare to say that I carry the hope of Chinese films, but I will take every step to make every movie, "Mechanical Man" is the first science fiction movie for our Chinese people, and it is also the first movie to knock on the door of Chinese movies!" Cutting-edge director Django spoke confidently under the camera, vividly showing the development of spirit......
After seeing this news, Feng Kai was so angry that he almost smashed the TV.
November 2nd!
When another message appeared on the homepage of Weibo and exploded on the screen, Feng Kai's angry mood instantly turned into excitement!
Zhou Yang, who has been low-key for more than ten days, bombarded the public media again!
"The Hong Kong Island Top 10 Golden Melody Awards Ceremony will be officially held on October 4!"
"The Hong Kong Island Top Ten Chinese Golden Melody Awards are the first for Zhou Yang, and "Invisible Wings" is officially shortlisted!"
"Five songs! All five of Zhou Yang's songs were shortlisted for the Hong Kong Island Top Ten Chinese Golden Melody Awards of the Year! ”
"Two hundred and seventy thousand! "Invisible Wings" officially broke the latest record in five years, and the physical album has sparked a craze again! ”
“……”
……………………
The Hong Kong Island Top Ten Chinese Golden Melody Awards of the Year is the oldest award ceremony, which has been held 27 times since 1978, and the stars who became famous here in the early days, such as Luo Hao, Ye Tang, Guan Jieli, Zhang Guohong, Wang Quan, Ye Minxian, etc., each of them became the big brother and big sister of the music scene later.
In the 80s and 90s, it created a glorious era of the Three Kings Competition!
This award is very important in the Chinese music scene, and its authority and fairness have been maintained by veteran singers, and it once became the first Chinese music award!
Although the Xiangjiang music scene fell lonely after the millennium, and the Taiwan Golden Melody Awards began to launch a competitive momentum, this award did not become a mecca for many cutting-edge singers, but became a holy place for many cutting-edge singers.
November 2nd!
With the record breaking of the "Invisible Wings" album, Zhou Yang's name shook the entire Chinese music scene.
His resume has driven a lot of people crazy!
In more than a year, five songs have been written, each of which is a hit, and the top five songs on the list are all occupied by Zhou Yang!
The physical album market, which was hit by the Internet and became extremely decadent, actually popped up the next spring, which is something that all musicians in China could never dream of.
Even, it can be said that Zhou Yang almost single-handedly saved the physical album!
Behind the shocking data, there are invisible currents surging.
And the Hong Kong Island Top Ten Golden Melody Awards Ceremony has pushed this trend to the extreme......
Noon on November 2.
"Why is this song shortlisted, aren't the top ten golden songs on Hong Kong Island the most authoritative? Is this authoritative? ”
"Have you contacted Xiangjiang?"
"I've been contacted, these people are old-fashioned, and our people can't make a difference over there...... This kind of arrogant person is getting so much heat now, and his tail is not cocked to the sky? ”
"It's come to this, don't be too impetuous, he just wrote some songs, that's all......"
"I can't swallow this breath, this guy, what kind of thing is he, shameless, no, I have to do some more movements."
"Okay, okay, let's dissipate the anger, people's sales are real, and if people continue to operate, I guess there will be opinions from above, and it's not good to suppress a young person like this, it's not good to spread it......"
“……”
The craze is surging.
And the old directors who appeared in the meetings of relevant departments were in a bad mood.
Zhou Yang moved their cake, and they hated Zhou Yang as a "supernumerary figure......
They tried to suppress Zhou Yang.
But......
After all, music is not their field, they have unimaginable energy in the Chinese film industry, but in the music world, it is another world that they cannot touch.
Tearoom.
Gentle and quaint music is accompanied by incense......
Zhao Sicheng had a gloomy face, looking at Zhou Yang, who was getting hotter and hotter on the computer, his emotions were mixed.
Cao Bangguo drank tea calmly and looked at Zhao Sicheng lightly.
After a few seconds of silence, Mr. Zhao's phone rang.
Zhao Sicheng suppressed the emotions in his heart and calmly picked up the phone.
"Hello?"
"The reward system of the Young Director Support Program is determined according to the box office share?"
"I don't have a problem......"
"Huh? Support plan, Zhou Yang is also in it? ”
"Okay, I got it."
Zhao Sicheng, who was in a very bad mood, glanced at Cao Bangguo after hearing the call.
"Director Cao, what do you think?"
"It's okay to fight...... Otherwise, there will be people above who are not convinced, and think that Jiang Gebi is not as good as Zhou Yang, hehe. ”
"Good!"
…………………………
November 3rd.
"Excellent! Yes, Xiao Zhou, are you okay? ”
"It's okay......"
"It's been a hard ten days!"
"It's fine."
When Zhou Yang got up on the ground, his whole body was in a cold sweat, and his role in "The Grandmaster" was finally finished!
Huang Jiacheng handed Zhou Yang a towel.
Zhou Yang wiped the wounds on his body, moved his body, and felt that his body was falling apart.
He looked at the bruises on his face, and at the bruises and purples on his face......
He suddenly realized something......
Why do I want to go to the Xiangjiang Top Ten Golden Melody Awards like this?
But if you don't go......
No, this is Huaxing's rare highlight moment in the entertainment company, Song Qianqian and Jiang Shushu both went, and they had the opportunity to accept the award on stage, how could they not go?
