Chapter 189: Queen!
β¦β¦β¦
September 26th.
Early in the morning, Xu Zheng got up from the bed shirtless, took the mobile phone on the bedside table, and came to the computer desktop.
In the quilt, Xiao Taohong opened her blurred eyes, looked at the bright colors outside the window, and said, "Get up so early again, hasn't the box office on the first day exceeded your expectations?" β
"You don't understand, the box office on the first day can only show the early attraction of "Thai Embarrassment", and the box office in the next few days can see the real effect of the movie."
Xu Zheng shook his head, sat on the chair, and quickly turned on the computer.
On the evening of the 23rd, the scene at the premiere of "Thai Embarrassment" made his heart flutter.
The box office of 25.8 million on the first day made him even more famous, and he became the object of attention of major film companies in one fell swoop.
Yesterday to promote the film, they walked through five movie theaters, and everywhere they met enthusiastic fans, as well as follow-up reporters.
Heat!
Atmosphere!
The popularity of him and Baoqiang and Huang Bo is not the same as that of "People in Embarrassment".
If the box office trend of the next day can be further improved, then he Xu Zheng can really gain a firm foothold in the field of film directing.
Xu Zheng thought so in his heart, his fingers quickly swiped the interface of the mobile phone, and clicked on the latest text message on the screen.
32 million!
The dazzling number directly made him breathe.
Start with 3 words!
6.2 million more than on the first day!
Feeling incredulous, he rubbed the droppings in the corners of his eyes and looked at his phone again.
It's true!
It's really 32 million!
βYesοΌβ
Xu Zheng was in ecstasy, slammed his fist on the computer desk, and let out a low cry of excitement.
It worked!
"Thai Embarrassment" really succeeded.
The box office of 400 million is completely expected, and 600 million is not impossible.
An unprecedented rush of excitement came over me.
Xu Zheng was short of breath, and with trembling hands, he opened Weibo to inquire about news related to "Thai Embarrassment".
Xiao Taohong noticed her husband's abnormality, and also lifted the quilt and got out of bed, and came behind him barefoot.
"How much was the box office yesterday?"
"32 million!"
Xu Zheng handed the phone back, trying to suppress his excitement.
"So tall?"
Little Peach was also startled, and took the phone with a whoosh.
At a glance, I saw the suffocating string of numbers.
moment
The corners of the little peach's mouth rose and curved with joy.
"Husband, you're going to get up!"
She leaned against Xu Zheng, wrapped her hands around his neck, and her eyes smiled into a line.
"Don't worry, let's see the feedback from the media and the audience first."
Xu Zheng leaned back slightly, his shoulders moved, and skillfully squeezed the majesty on Xiao Taohong's chest.
Entertainment media are accustomed to praising high and low, with Hengyu, Guangxian, and Bona three film and television companies announcing "Thai Embarrassment" together, ten days before the movie is released, there must be very little negative news.
Because of this, the audience's reputation is the most important box office booster.
If the audience doesn't buy it, when the publicity time passes, the quality and quality of the movie will be completely exposed to the public.
To be honest, Xu Zheng's current mentality can't ignore the outside world's evaluation of him.
Whether it's good or bad, as long as there are too many evaluations, it will stir his mind.
Fortunately, there are many voices of praise on the Internet, and there are very few people who sing about it.
25.8 million on the first day.
32 million the next day.
The movie-watching popularity formed in the past two days of "Thai Embarrassment" is not weaker than last year's "Tang Detective".
Before the release of "Di Renjie", the performance of "Thai Embarrassment" surpassed other movies and became the highest record in the film history of the National Day file.
On Weibo, reports from major entertainment media were full of flowers, and audiences and film critics praised "Thai Embarrassment".
There are even better people who compare Xu Zheng with Fang Ziheng, saying that his second film is expected to reach the height of "Tang Detective".
is the most promising candidate to impact the new commercial director.
Some people also refuted below, saying that even if "Thai Embarrassment" is popular, Xu Zheng is almost meaningless, and he needs a big production to prove it.
After browsing several pages of reports at a glance and ten lines, Xu Zheng breathed a long sigh of relief, got up and hugged Xiao Taohong to bed.
Xiao Taohong raised her eyebrows and said softly: "Why don't you watch it?" β
"Don't watch it, it's pretty much the same, the signs of the rise of "Thai Embarrassment" have already appeared, let's see how long the follow-up reputation can last."
Xu Zheng smiled, and took off the little pink nightdress as he spoke.
The words of the do-gooders, he also saw.
He has ideas and ambitions.
Achieved a business director, and even further jumped out of the chess pieces to be promoted to capital, and became a chess player in the entertainment industry.
These are all things that Xu Zheng dreams of.
After the fluttering, he quickly calmed down again.
He knows very well that even if "Thai Embarrassment" is on fire, it cannot be completely regarded as his work.
The screenwriter and producer of "Thai Embarrassment" are Fang Ziheng.
He was just a director who shot according to the script, and many of the jokes and ideas of the film were not his credit.
Although the words of netizens are heart-wrenching, they are to the point.
Anyone who wants to truly achieve a great director and a famous director has no other way than to walk out of their own path.
The media touted him Xu Zheng, but it was just for the heat.
Fang Ziheng relied on four works to become a commercial director, and he is currently only in his second film.
It's not even close!
Going back to more than ten years, Lao Mouzi, Feng Pants, Xu Laowei, Xing Ye, and Uncle Long.
Which of these people didn't have more than one movie to step into the position of a top director.
Xu Zheng is very smart and knows what he wants.
The popularity of "Thai Embarrassment" made him see an opportunity.
The next movie must be decided by itself.
screenwriter, director, and starring, take the road of Fang Ziheng's trinity.
Call.
Everything, let's talk about it after the movie is drawn!
β¦β¦β¦
A coquettish voice rang out in the bedroom.
Xu Zheng retracted his thoughts, wrote carefully, and practiced wild grass.
September 28th.
Den.
Fang Ziheng sat at the desk, his fingers were fast, and lines of handwriting jumped on the computer screen.
"The Love of the Hawthorn Tree" was released for 12 days, and the total box office came to 147 million, breaking 200 million.
The film publicity came to an end, and the major film and television companies accelerated the pace of contact with Lao Mouzi.
Concubine Lin once again proposed to visit Lao Mouzi to express the sincerity of Hengyu Media.
This time, Fang Ziheng did not refuse, but only said that he would go in person after a two-day delay.
Unlike Wang Zhongjun and others who use money to open the way, his intentions are much more sincere.
He wrote a book for Lao Mouzi, a script that can rush to the Olympics!
Lao Mouzi's wishes, or obsessions, were not a secret at all in the previous life.
Nine times to the Olympics, repeated defeats!
From "Red Sorghum" and "Ju Dou" to be nominated for Best Foreign Language Film for the first time. to "Qiu Ju's Lawsuit", "The Red Lantern Hangs High", and "Hero".
and then to "The City is Full of Golden Armor", "Jinling Thirteen Middle School", and "Cliff".
Nine films, eight nominations, none of which won!
For Oscar, Lao Mouzi has an almost perverted persistence and expectation.
Fang Ziheng is also watching the dishes, Lao Mouzi has just recovered his free body, and he just hasn't decided on the follow-up project, he handed over a good book suitable for Chong Ao at this time, and he didn't worry that Lao Mouzi was not moved.
Bang bang bang..
The sound of tapping on the keyboard kept ringing.
Fang Ziheng's thoughts were fluttering, his inspiration was bursting, and his fingertips were jumping faster and faster.
Three hours later!
A 10,000-word script outline is freshly released.
"The Year of Dreams"!
Adapted from the 94th Academy Award for Best Picture "Listening Girl".
The script tells the story of a young daughter who has had a difficult life since she was a child, and after the fetters of her family and the drastic changes in the college entrance examination, she finally embarked on the road of music and led her family to live a happy life.
The story is not complicated, and there are only two cores.
One light and one dark.
The bright line is to pursue dreams and work hard, and the dark line is family difficulties and the love of parents.
The two threads intertwined with each other and finally broke out after the college entrance examination, and the little girl spoke her heart to her parents for the first time.
Finally, the little girl gained the support of her mother, the understanding of her father, and with resolute faith, she embarked on the path of pursuing music.
This script is not highly artistic, and it is not a book that Fang Ziheng himself used to brush up on awards and forced qualifications.
But it is in line with the Oscar's favorite, with 3 points for the commercial taste of the script and 5 points for artistry.
The remaining 2 points come down to the kindness and purity of the little girl.
The new picture collapsed ahead of schedule, and Lao Mouzi, as the first director of Chinese, has its special influence.
Pulling him into the chariot of Hengyu Media is indeed a move in Fang Ziheng's heart.
This chess is very crucial!
The commercialization of films has become a foregone conclusion, more and more directors have switched to commercial films, and the space for domestic literary films has gradually disappeared.
The future development of Hengyu Media needs literary films to precipitate the heritage, and it also needs directors who can make literary films to help the company's artists win awards.
Lao Mouzi is one of the few great directors who is interested in movies, is dedicated to creation, and can grasp both literature and art, and business.
Of course
The most important thing is that Fang Ziheng admires Lao Mouzi, and it is definitely worth seducing the other party with a book that rushes to the Olympics.
With the big Buddha of Lao Mouzi sitting in Hengyu, it will inevitably accelerate the pace of development of the company.
Thinking about the key, Fang Ziheng stretched his waist and came to the bedroom.
"Are you done?"
Liu Qianqian leaned against the head of the bed, holding her phone and glancing at him, and continued to play her game of Tetris.
"I'm done, I'm going to visit Lao Mouzi in a few days, do you want to go?"
"If I don't go, people will laugh at me."
"Laugh at you, who laughs at you?"
Fang Ziheng smiled lightly, unscrewed a corner of the quilt and climbed onto the bed.
In the bed, the young lady was wearing his long white shirt, revealing a white thigh.
She didn't look up, and said while playing a game: "Of course it's a media reporter." β
"You go to talk to Lao Mouzi about cooperation, what is it for me to follow, and the reporter sees it, and they have to say that I am going to be a vase."
Yo..
Consciousness is so high?
That's not your style!
Fang Ziheng was stunned, took the young lady into his arms, and rubbed her capable short hair.
Finish the game in one hand.
The young lady continued with the second hand, and didn't seem to want to deal with him.
Odd!
Fang Ziheng's palm slid down, pinched her uprightness, and said softly: "Aren't you thinking about Lao Mouzi's movie, really not going?" β
"Don't go, that's two different things!"
All right!
The lure plan didn't work out.
Fang Ziheng stopped pretending, turned into a villain, and snatched the mobile phone in her hand.
"What are you doing? I'm in the process of clearing the customs. β
The young lady was coquettish and hammered him dissatisfied.
Fang Ziheng dragged her out of the bed and let her sit on his lap.
subsequently
He developed a new style of pen movement, and looked at the young lady with a wicked smile.
"Do you want to try what it's like to be a queen?"
An hour later.
Fang Ziheng watched the young lady walk into the bathroom, and took the mobile phone to surf the Internet with satisfaction.
On the Internet, the box office of "Rain of Swords" came out on the first day.
5.4 million on the first day, it was completely pounced.
The investment of nearly 100 million yuan was lost, and as the producer and co-director of the film, Wu Baige was once again discredited.
The media made a false noise, saying that this was the first failed blockbuster in this year's National Day file.
According to the grapevine, the boss of the galloping pony, the big dog brother Li Ming, immediately slapped the table in the office after getting the box office on the first day of "Sword Rain", and scolded Wu Baige for being nothing more than that.
Others believe this, but Fang Ziheng will not believe it.
You must know that Wu Baige's "Taiping Wheel" is still a movie controlled by Pony Galloping.
"Taiping Wheel"!
The production budget is as high as 40 million US dollars!
Wu Baige once again lived up to the expectations of investors and audiences.
Speaking of which, ponies are also unlucky.
"No Man's Land", "Sword Rain", "Taiping Wheel", hundreds of millions of investments have not even made a splash.
Especially "Rain of Swords", it is really unlucky to go home.
Although the plot of the movie is average, the picture and fighting are still very good, and the taste of martial arts in the rivers and lakes is filmed.
Especially the old man You's sentence: I would like to be a stone bridge, let the wind blow for 500 years, the rain for 500 years, and the sun for 500 years.
There are not only the love and hatred of the rivers and lakes, but also the romantic poetry and painting, and the pictures and artistic conceptions are all full.
However, it still doesn't work, the audience has long been tired of watching traditional martial arts movies, and prefers novel and creative plot pictures.
After "Rain of Swords", the next thing is "Di Renjie's Heavenly Empire", which premieres tonight.
The investment in this film is even greater, and it has been highly anticipated by Hua Yi and countless fans, and is known as the masterpiece of new martial arts movies.
Carrying the tripod is not the opening of the mountain.
The pioneering work is Fang Ziheng's "Four Famous Catches"!
As early as September 18th, Wang Zhonglei personally sent several invitations, inviting him and Hengyu Media to come over to cheer.
He did not return to the imperial capital at that time, and Andy received Wang Zhonglei.
Bell bell bell.
The mobile phone rings, and Concubine Lin's avatar appears on the widescreen.
Fang Ziheng glanced at the bathroom and swiped the screen: "Hey, Sister Lin." β
"Lao Fang, it's almost four o'clock, are you going to attend the premiere of "Di Renjie" tonight?"
"Of course I want to go!"
"Sister Lin, you and Andy will lead the team, and I will have a round with you later."
"Okay, you guys hurry up, let's do this first."
Doodle
The phone hangs up.
Sister Lin's last sentence had a taste of resentment.
Fang Ziheng scratched his head, crying and laughing.
Teasing Sister Lin before, I made a note of the cannon, and now it's time to pay off the debt.
Alas..
I finally understand why handsome and excellent people are also troubled.
He scrambled out of bed and walked naked out of the bathroom.
In the transparent glass room, the mist is fluttering, and a tall and seductive figure is washing his hair with his neck high.
Fang Ziheng pushed open the glass door, stepped in, and said with a smile: "Sissi, I'll go to the movies later, do you want to wear a dress?"
"What movie did you watch, the premiere of "Di Renjie"?" The young lady shook her hair and asked with Danfeng eyes.
"That's right, Xu Laowei's movie, Di Renjie fights little monsters!"
