Chapter 493: Huaxing's Movies

October 21.

A new round of the Chinese box office is out.

James. Bont's "Jaws" was showing records every day, and finally broke a staggering 900 million at the box office just over a month later.

This is a milestone statistic, and everyone is amazed.

Two years ago, this was a box office figure that I couldn't even think of.

"Men in Black" was released for a month and a half, and the box office reached an astonishing 760 million, as the audience's enthusiasm for watching the movie gradually faded, the corresponding cinema schedule also decreased, the daily box office fell from 10 million to 1 million, and the total box office on the 20th was only 5 million.

The total box office of "The Youth We Chased Together in Those Years" and "Sniper Phone Booth" is 340 million, and the other is 450 million, after the crazy baptism in October, the box office of the two movies has also begun to fall to a certain extent, the daily box office of "The Youth We Chased Together in Those Years" has fallen from 10 million to 1 million, "Sniper Phone Booth" can last for a while, but it is only in the early 10 millions, and it is estimated that today's box office will fall.

In the Starlight office.

"What did Lao Cao say?"

"I didn't stand in line, I abstained, and said that everything was arranged by the leader...... How to support and how to cooperate are subject to the leader's arrangement. ”

"Oh."

Feng Minrui and Chen Kai were smoking cigarettes and looking out the window.

The new round of general election of the Huaxia Film Association is not very optimistic for them, Zhou Yilin has received more than 60% of the support rate, and the current momentum is booming, and it seems that there is a posture of being invincible and invincible.

And Feng Minrui only got 40% of the support rate for the former president, except for a few old foxes who abstained, the rest of the young people or middle-level directors all supported Zhou Yilin.

Feng Minrui saw that the Huaxia Film Association that he once controlled was about to fall apart, and his heart was inevitably complicated.

"Only by uniting and making this cake together, everyone can eat, and now the whole association is like this, I don't know how many new generation directors will be hungry, and I don't know which direction the future Chinese films will go......" Feng Rui minrui snuffed out the cigarette butt, and finally sighed faintly.

At this moment, he suddenly felt that he was a little old, and his sigh was superficial.

Chen Kai's face was gloomy, but he didn't say anything, just looked at his watch in silence.

It's seven o'clock in the morning.

In two hours, it will be the premiere of Shen Jinsong's "Sword God".

This era has gradually turned into a commercial era, and the box office of movies is naturally a crucial part.

In the past two years, the Huaxia Film Association has really not had any good works, and they are all holding back their strength to prepare to boost morale with Hao Laiwu in the second half of 07.

"Sword God", an adaptation of the best-selling martial arts, is naturally one of the movies that compete with Hollywood.

Shen Jinsong has been preparing this movie for three years, and this breath is about to deteriorate, but he is still ambitious and has been waiting for the release of the right time.

As said at the beginning, ten years of sharpening a sword, a sword shocks the world.

Feng Ruirui and Chen Kai are actually looking forward to this movie.

"Let's go, go see Sword God."

"Hmm."

In the midst of countless bad news, there is good news.

After all, "Sword God" is a work of their Huaxia Film Association.

…………………………

In the past, a group of Chinese directors who were in a hurry were very low-key when "Sword God" premiered.

When facing the media, everyone is extremely humble, even Shen Jinsong, the director of "Sword God", has always maintained a silent attitude.

The release time of "Sword God" is not October 1st Golden Week, nor is it a holiday, although there is confidence in this movie, everyone knows that the premiere box office will not be too ideal.

"Haha, I'm not the president yet, it's just the old bones of the activities, so that this association will be more energetic, lest some people say that our association is an association for the elderly, haha......"

"The road to the release of "Sword God" is indeed quite bumpy, after all, there are too many blockbusters in October, and it is indeed not easy to get the film schedule, but I believe that this movie will surprise the audience."

"Hey, President Feng is here, President Feng, please here, I'll leave a place for you......"

“……”

When Zhou Yilin came to the screening hall, a smile bloomed on his face.

Facing the camera, he said something that was not arrogant, but made some directors sound quite harsh.

When Feng Minrui walked over, he happened to see Zhou Yilin's smiling eyes.

Feng Rui's heart instantly began to have a strong disgust, his stomach refluxed acid, and he wanted to vomit on the spot.

The home venue for the premiere of "Sword God" should be director Shen Jinsong, or it should be him Feng Minrui, but Zhou Yilin turned against the guest, and instead began to greet him as a guest.

"It's getting more and more arrogant!"

After hypocritically politely, Feng Minrui finally sat down, and Chen Kai stared at Zhou Yilin, who continued to talk and laugh in front of the media in the distance, and couldn't help but scold.

When they came in, the media didn't seem to be enthusiastic about them, everyone seemed to have heard something, although they were interviewed, but most of them were coping, with the microphone in their hands, and their eyes had already glanced elsewhere.

Even their treatment is not as good as that of second- and third-tier directors like Feng Kai......

Such a performance naturally makes people have a huge sense of gap, Chen Kai jumped a little, but after all, he didn't go crazy.

They are not the same as the beginning of October now, and the top seems to be very disappointed in them, even those behind Chen Kai said that if they can keep a low profile during this time, they should try to keep a low profile.

People are in the limelight, so there's no need to be uncomfortable.

At around 8:50, the big screen in the distance of "Sword God" finally darkened, and then the advertisement began to play.

"Huh? Is this a comedy? ”

"Yo, they're all rookie actors, this actor is so ugly......"

"Haha, although it's so ugly, it's so joyful, and I die laughing......"

"Gone?"

"Here's the trailer!"

“……”

Advertisements before movie screenings are generally quite dull and cumbersome, and audiences are eager to fast-forward.

But when a road movie trailer commercial called "Laughing All the Way" was first shown in the screening room, there was a commotion throughout the screening room.

The audience laughed as they watched the trailer of the new movie on screen.

It's just that this trailer is very short, only about thirty seconds, and after the trailer ended, it was not said when the movie called "Laughing Flowers All the Way" would be released......

This made the audience feel a little regretful.

Feng Rui frowned, looking at the words "produced by Huaxing" and director Zhang Changsheng's works.

Before I had time to think about who this director Zhang Changsheng was, another set of trailers was played in the advertisement.

[I'll top your lungs!] 】

[You first insulted my personality, and now you are insulting my IQ!] 】

[This thing becomes kidnapping, this is not our specialty! ] 】

【……】

Just after watching "Laughing Flowers All the Way", the audience coldly saw the trailer of "Crazy Stone" again.

This time, the audience laughed even more happily than the previous one.

The sense of language in the film's trailer is completely cinematic and audio-visual, rather than the traditional paradigm of 'prose and even poetry' that Chinese films are good at and firmly grasping, and it deliberately mobilizes the special sense of humor of the dialect, telling about the comedy of small people in a turbulent metropolis......

This alternative sense of black humor refreshed the audience and made them even more curious about the movie.

"Grass! When will this movie be released? It's kind of interesting. ”

"Haha, that's so much fun."

"Yo, this movie is written by Zhou Yang again, haha, I didn't expect Zhou Yang to understand this?"

“……”

The tidal wave of laughter and the turbulent discussion echoed in Feng Minrui's ears, becoming more and more harsh.

The corners of Feng Minrui's mouth moved slightly, especially when he saw the director's name, Feng Minrui couldn't help but close his eyes.

The director's name is Liu Can.

In the 90s, he made a literary film called "Black and White Humor", which was screened at the Russian International Film Festival and once achieved a great response.

Later, after returning to China, Feng Minrui had brief contact with this director, but Feng Minrui's temperament made Feng Minrui dislike it very much, and he was particularly arrogant......

In the final analysis, the Huaxia Film Association disdained them, not only refused their invitation, but even refused to give them some corresponding "protection fees".

Later, Feng Minrui reported to the relevant departments under the pretext of "releasing abroad without approval", and in the next ten years, Liu Can has been in a state of being blocked.

During this period, Feng Rui had heard about him, and learned that he couldn't bear the hardships of life and changed his career.

Feng Minrui didn't pay attention to it later.

There were too many directors who were banned in those years, how could he have the leisure to pay attention to these?

Even later, when Huaxing announced the plan for "Crazy Stone", he didn't pay much attention to it.

But no one could have imagined that in this special period, his new work would appear in the cinema in a grand manner, and what was even more unexpected was that this movie was directed by him.

Feng Rui began to have a bad premonition.

He suddenly felt like a joke.

It's not good, this circle will turn better after leaving them!

The thought crossed his mind.

Just when he was emotionally complicated, "Sword God" was finally released.

"This movie may not be too good......"

"The plot is too old-fashioned......"

"Well, it's the main line of the movie where orphans seek revenge again, and finally succeed in revenge......"

"But isn't that how Sword God is written?"

“……”

Just ten minutes after the release of "Sword God", he heard an audience next to him pointing at the movie.
