"Selling dog meat on the head of a sheep, saying that the love of the big boat is good, that's it!"

"I'm so angry, I was tricked into the cinema by the marketing account again, the more than 120-minute movie is less than a five-minute boat scene, why did you tell me that this is called the world's masterpiece "Taiping Wheel", what about my wheel?"

"Damn, Sect Master Huang is getting more and more greasy, he is playing handsome from beginning to end, and he won't do anything else except being handsome!"

"Mother, they are all soldiers, and they don't even have one-tenth of the military characters in "The Wind"!"

"The plot of "Taiping Wheel" is boring, and I really don't recommend that you spend money to buy tickets!"

"Damn, I thought it was a cruise ship disaster romance movie, but it turned out to be a war movie with garbage to the extreme, it's better to squat at home and watch an anti-Japanese drama, at least it's cool enough!"

"It's especially the upper and lower parts, and the broken ship only appeared at the end of the first part, no, Wu Baige, why are you so confident, do you think that the audience who has watched the first part is still willing to spend money to watch the second part?"

"Look at a hammer, Wu Baige is not trustworthy!"

"Understood, a movie is made into two parts, just to make money!"

"Said the good Oriental style "Titanic", I am really a dog, and I will never watch Wu Baige's movies again!"

"Refund the ticket, return the money!"

"Refund the ticket, return the money!"

In just two days after its release, "Taiping Wheel" was criticized, and its reputation collapsed like a cliff.

On the Internet and Weibo, the promotional advertorials that LeTV Pictures spent money on were torn open by countless audiences.

The real film reviews are like sharp arrows, stabbing "Taiping Wheel" to the bottom.

The box office was 26 million on the first day and 17 million on the second day.

Pounced!

"Taiping Wheel" pounced, pounced thoroughly, and pounced earth-shattering!

Directed by an international director, with a total investment of 400 million, six popular stars joined, and they were fully distributed online and offline, in exchange for such a box office trend.

Many insiders who are optimistic about the movie are all stupid, one by one dumbfounded, speechless to the extreme.

That's it!

It's too wasteful!

The major film and television companies got the box office data of the next day, which further confirmed the success or failure of "Taiping Wheel".

The distributor of the movie, LeTV Film and Television, CEO Zhang Zhao frowned and looked at the box office data of the first and second days of the movie in his hand, and it took a long time to burst out of the quintessence of the country.

Wu Baige, my day your grandma!!

The premiere boasted of 1.6 billion, 2 billion can be expected, but the original form was revealed in just two days, you are really damned!

Zhang Zhao tore up the data table in his hand, picked up his mobile phone and dialed Jia Yuting's number, and said with a sad and indignant face: "Chairman, we fell for Wu Baige." ”

""Taiping Wheel" pounced!"

LeTV Pictures never expected that under such a hot schedule for the Chinese New Year, "Taiping Wheel" would achieve such a small box office.

43 million in two days, at most more than 100 million in the first week, if the next dive continues, the total box office is likely to be 300 million.

LeTV Pictures uses 800 million guarantees, and the pants have to be lost!

Zhang Zhao's grief and indignation were ignored.

The four producers of Pony Galloping, Huayi, China Film, and Wanda Pictures will all breathe a sigh of relief, and the secret road is so dangerous!

At Huayi headquarters, Wang Zhonglei looked at his brother Wang Zhongjun, who was smoking, and gloated: "Brother, LeTV swallowed the poison pill this time, and half a year's profit was gone."

"Not just half a year, at least a year's profit!"

Wang Zhongjun spit out smoke, raised his eyebrows, and said with a smile: "At the beginning, Zhang held a price of 800 million yuan, but Li Ming, who was galloping on a pony, was unwilling, and I fought with Chen Yu of China Film and Song Ge of Wanda Pictures to sell the film in advance!" ”

"Hey, now that Li Mingren is gone, leaving her sister to support the pony galloping alone, if "Taiping Wheel" doesn't sell the distribution rights, only this time the pony galloping will have to go bankrupt!"

"Speaking of which, we even saved the pony galloping once!"

In and out of the words, Wang Zhongjun was a little proud, boasting about his vision and decision-making.

Imperial Capital, a five-star hotel.

Wu Baige's face was pale, and the irritability and panic in his heart rose to the peak, and he had an urge to destroy the world.

In the past two days, he has been paying attention to the comments on the Internet, and Weibo, Douban, and major film forums have left footprints.

It's a mess, it's all negative news, there's no surprises,

If the first-day box office on the first day can be attributed to the fact that word-of-mouth has not fermented, then the second-day box office on the second day completely ended "Taiping Wheel".

Extinguished his fluke of glass fabrication!

He couldn't believe it, and he didn't want to believe it.

But the two sets of numbers on the mobile phone screen will not be faked, and the real ones are in front of him, and he can't be allowed not to believe it.

26 million, 17 million, the unusually glaring numbers seem to be mocking him.

"Failed, really failed!"

Wu Baige muttered to himself, sitting in front of the computer decadently, without a trace of the spirit of the premiere.

Even when the assistant knocked on the door and came in and called him for lunch, he was indifferent.

The entertainment industry will not be transferred because of a street-hitting film.

The Chinese New Year stalls are still hot.

Another movie that has attracted much attention because of the release of Hengyu Media, "The Return of the Great Sage" has made efforts one after another.

After 429 million in three days, word-of-mouth exploded in the second week, on December 1, December 2, December 3, and December 4.

A total of 380 million box office was achieved in four days, with an average box office of 95 million in a single day, beating all movies in the same period.

On December 5th, "The Year in a Hurry", which was controlled by Pony Galloping and released by Pony Galloping with full authority, was released.

As soon as it was released, it showed the appearance of a dark horse, and with a super high first-day box office of 61 million, it ranked second on the box office list on the 5th.

Another big-selling youth movie!

The pony galloped into the soul twice, sold the distribution rights of "Taiping Wheel" to recover the cost, and made every effort to release the small and broad film "The Year in a Hurry", and the two correct decisions made the stormy pony gallop to stabilize its position.

Speaking of which, this is the last gift that former Pony Galloping deputy director and production director Zhong Lifang gave Pony Gallop before she left her post.

After Li Ming's death, Zhong Lifang hesitated for three months, and had a long talk with Miss Li Er, who was not good in the past, before leaving, and asked the other party not to sell the guaranteed release of "The Year in a Hurry".

At that time, there was no hope for the pony to go public, and the people's hearts within the group were fluctuating.

Guangxian, Ali Pictures, and Tengxun Pictures offered a guarantee of 500 million yuan for "The Year in a Hurry", and Miss Li Er swayed from side to side, not knowing how to decide.

Zhong Lifang saw it for Li Ming's sake, regardless of the stiff relationship with Miss Li Er, and tried to build a pony galloping to leave "The Year in a Hurry".

I have to say that Zhong Lifang is worthy of being one of the best female producers in the industry, and she recognized that the audience of the Chinese New Year file would eat a youth romance film like "The Year in a Hurry".

The blockbuster of "The Year in a Hurry" not only stabilized the situation of the fluttering pony, but also completely compared Wu Baige's waste materials.

A film produced by the same film and television company, with a total investment of 400 million and a total investment of less than 50 million.

The cast, the publicity lineup, and the gimmick highlights, "Taiping Wheel" all beat "The Year in a Hurry".

It is not an exaggeration to say that it is a fatal blow.

Major film and television companies, filmmakers in the circle lamented that the pony was galloping and hard, but also used Wu Baige as a background board, which became everyone's after-dinner conversation.

Every year, there are dark horse movies that are ignored, and the outbreak of "The Year in a Hurry" has invisibly added a bit of heat to the Lunar New Year file.

In the past few years, since Fang Ziheng opened up the Spring Festival stalls, the Lunar New Year stalls have retreated from the former boss to second place, keeping pace with the summer stalls.

This year's Lunar New Year stalls are particularly intense.

In addition to the popular dark horse "The Year in a Hurry", four more movies were continuously concerned by the outside world at the beginning of their release.

Part 1: Naturally, it is "Taiping Wheel" that has hit the streets!

Part 2: "The Return of the Great Sage" controlled by Hengyu Media, there is a tacit understanding in the outside world, as long as it is a movie controlled by Hengyu, no matter how bad it is, it is better than many movies.

Part 3: "One Step Away" directed by Coco Jiang.

Part 4: "Outwitting Tiger Mountain" directed by Xu Ke.

The first three movies, whether they hit the market or hit the streets, have been confirmed over time, and only the last two movies have yet to be verified.

Unlike Wu Baige, insiders are vainly optimistic about him, unwilling to refute his face as an international director, and are really optimistic about "One Step Away" and "Outwitting Tiger Mountain".

After all, Jiang Cohen had "Let the Bullets Fly", and Xu Keqian had "Dragon Gate Flying Armor" and "Di Renjie's Dragon King".

The fame and appeal of the two directors are no less than any of the signed directors of Hengyu Media except Fang Ziheng and Lao Mouzi.

Even the three famous directors who have stepped into the 1 billion box office club are not as good as Jiang Wen and Xu Ke in terms of popularity.

There is always an argument in the outside world: film is the art of the director!

In the past 20 years of Chinese films, except for Uncle Long, a big starring actor with a strong style, almost all the blockbuster movies and word-of-mouth movies have been known to the audience.

The more high-grossing the movie, the greater the director's fame!

The audience evaluates whether a movie is worth looking forward to, the director is the first to look at, and the producer and distributor can completely ignore it.

Jiang Wen, the four famous directors of the older generation who are as famous as Lao Mouzi, Chen Daren, and Feng Xiaogang.

Xu Ke, a master of martial arts films at the peak of the Hong Kong Island film industry,

Both of them have left a strong mark in the Chinese film industry, and their word-of-mouth and appeal are getting stronger and stronger.

As the release time of the two movies approaches little by little, countless audiences are looking forward to it and looking forward to it.

Major film and television companies also withdrew their attention from "Taiping Wheel", divided it into two, and put most of their attention on the two movies.

At the same time, while the two movies have not yet been released, ten well-known companies in the industry, including Hengyu, Huayi, Guangxian, Bona, Alibaba, Tengxun, LeTV Pictures, Wanda Pictures, Huace Film and Television, and Hengdian Film and Television, once again launched a competition for the new films of Huang Bo and Baoqiang.

It's like the release of "Taiping Wheel" made everyone call for money, and as soon as the movie hit the streets, everyone regrouped and re-launched their troops.

World War II breaks out!

Sanqingshan Film and Television Base, Fang Ziheng is filming while paying attention to the undercurrent of the film market.

He had expected it, and he knew very well that the New Year stalls could not stop everyone's enthusiasm for "A Good Show" and "Havoc in Tianzhu".

At present, there are too few directors on the market who can sell well, and most of them are in Hengyu Media.

The major film and television companies lack the most blockbuster directors.

It's a scarce commodity, and no one wants to miss it!

After Hengyu offered 550 million, Alibaba Pictures took the lead in raising the price and offered a guarantee of 570 million for the two films.

Subsequently, Tengxun Pictures was not to be outdone, and issued a guarantee of 580 million for "A Good Show" and "Havoc in Tianzhu".

Guangxian, Bona, LeTV, Huace, and Hengdian Film and Television followed closely behind, and they all offered a guarantee of 590 million yuan to the two films.

So far, except for Huayi, other companies have quoted the second round of prices, pushing the guaranteed box office to 590 million in one fell swoop.

With only 10 million, it reached 600 million!

The second round of guaranteed funds was opened, and the major film and television companies were not idle, and sent executives to interview Huang Bo and Baoqiang in person, trying to play the emotional card.

On December 7, Hua Yi moved and took the lead in launching an emotional attack.

Li Xue, the general manager of Hesong Media, and Bao Qiang, the new partner, appeared together under the office building of Huayi Brothers.

Wang Zhonglei, president of Huayi, greeted him in person and said with a smile: "Haha, Baoqiang, Mr. Li hasn't seen you for a long time!" ”

As soon as he came up, Wang Zhongjun put his posture very low, and stood in the position of good friends and gave Li Xue and Baoqiang a big hug.

"Wang is always good!"

Li Xue Yingying smiled, and her slightly oblique body hugged Wang Zhonglei gently, and when she embraced, a trace of disgust flashed in the depths of her eyes.

Baoqiang is a little restrained, his greeting attitude is very respectful, and he is also very unaccustomed to hugging.

In his heart, Wang Zhonglei has always been the big man in his old memory, when did he become so easy to speak.

Is it because of "Havoc in Tianzhu"?

Baoqiang had great wisdom, and quickly figured out the key to the problem, grinning and showing two rows of white teeth and laughing happily.

"Let's go, my brother is waiting for the two of you!"

After greetings, Wang Zhonglei stretched out his hand and walked into the elevator with Baoqiang in his arms.

Li Xue had a confident and charming smile on her face, and Baoqiang was the main person next to the two, looking at the layout of Huayi's office area from time to time, recalling what was the difference from a few years ago.

10 years ago, she and her sister Li Lianhua fought hard in this office building, and finally reborn from the ashes and walked out of the world that belonged to the sisters.

Returning to Huayi in this way today is enough to be called inspirational.

Baoqiang's situation is similar, when he walked into the office of Chairman Huayi and heard Wang Zhongjun's hearty laughter, he had a feeling of being in a dream.

is different from facing Fang Ziheng, when the filming of "Nobody" started in 2009, Baoqiang already had a good reputation, and he was still a rookie director.

The relationship between the two, aside from filming on the set, is more of an equal friendship.

Even if Fang Ziheng later went all the way up, came to the top of the entertainment industry, and became an absolute bigwig, Baoqiang didn't feel that he was facing much power.

Psychologically, he has always been a little close to Fang Ziheng.

Wang Zhongjun is different, when Baoqiang was a group performer, the other party was a big man in the entertainment industry.

After joining Huayi, I occasionally felt that I was too far away from each other to reach each other.

Even if Baoqiang later became independent and opened his own studio, he was still very self-aware and knew that he was not at the same level as Wang Zhongjun.

But when he entered the chairman's office, Wang Zhongjun was like a friend, and his younger brother Wang Zhonglei had the same attitude towards him, which really scared Baoqiang.

For a moment, his heart was beating extremely fast, full of pride, and he wanted to shout out the cool feeling in his heart loudly.

"Cool, so cool!"

The eldest husband was born in heaven and earth, how can he be depressed and live under the people for a long time!

Being a director and shooting your own movies is really the right thing.

Baoqiang roared in his heart, and the excitement in his heart was suppressed for a long time.

He remembered Li Xue's advice when he came.

"Go through the motions, go through the motions."

"We're just coming back to pretend to be forced, and by the way, listen to the quote of the big and small kings."

"Sister Xue is right, eat the sugar coating, and the cannonballs will shoot back."

Baoqiang adheres to his heart and keeps cheering himself up in the bottom of his heart.

………

Here, Baoqiang encountered the highest courtesy he received in Huayi, and he felt that his life had reached its peak.

On the other side, Huang Bo took his agent to interview Zhang Wei of Ali Pictures, and also saw what it means to be a real dog.

"One price, 50 million!"

"Director Huang, as long as you sell the distribution rights of "A Good Show" to Alibaba Pictures, you will immediately get a director's reward of 50 million soft sister coins."

"This bonus does not record any words, does not sign any contract, and does not include the investment income of Director Huang's personal studio in the film, nor does it include the remuneration given to you by Hengyu."

"Director Huang, Alibaba Pictures agrees with your creative concept, and our Chairman Fan would like to teach you a friend very much, if you can..."
