At this time, it has entered October, and in the film market, several blockbusters in the National Day file are fighting very fiercely.

But the most surprising thing is that it is a comedy with a small investment, which has become a dark horse that finally stands out.

In less than a week, the box office has exceeded 1.2 billion.

And the reputation of the movie is also very good, and it seems that it can basically lock in the National Day champion in advance.

Many people even predict that this comedy is likely to break the domestic comedy box office in China.

Of course, although this is the case, there are still many people in the industry who feel that the stamina of this movie is insufficient, and it is very likely that even if the key to the postponement is obtained, it is unlikely that the box office of domestic comedy films will be close to the record of 4.3 billion.

This can only be said to depend on the performance later, but on the whole, the popularity of this movie is still very high.

There's been a lot of talk lately, and it's all about it.

......

As for the market of other domestic TV series and online dramas, "Chasing the Murderer in the White Night" is still the most popular.

"Chasing the Murderer in the White Night" is now nearing the end of the finale, in fact, the later it goes, the higher the probability of the suspense drama overturning the car when it drives high and goes low.

Many of the previous self-proclaimed so-called pure suspense dramas, although the popularity was not as high as "Chasing the Murderer in the White Night", but because the suspense atmosphere was created very well at the beginning of the broadcast, the evaluation was generally not low.

The petal net score is at least eight points or more.

But as the plot progresses, all kinds of logical flaws slowly begin to appear, and it is common for the score to suddenly fall below the passing line.

This is a common problem of most suspense-themed dramas.

In many cases, if the decryption stage is not handled well, it will make people feel that they are playing tricks.

However, none of these exist in "Chasing the Murderer in the White Night".

While some viewers are more worried about this, most of them are not.

Because the screenwriter of this drama is Xu Ji.

Don't look at Xu Ji's bad reputation among many netizens, he wants to send blades or spray directly at every turn.

But there is still no doubt about Xu Ji's ability.

The finale may be a direct knife, which makes people hate it, but the reasonableness of the ending is no problem, and it can leave a deep impression on most audiences.

......

It is worth mentioning that there is nothing to take over from "Chasing the Murderer in the White Night" on the side of station G this time, and for a long time after that, it is estimated that it will still fall into a period when there are no decent new dramas online.

However, this time, "Chess Soul" and "Chasing the Murderer in the White Night" were broadcast together, which did make Station G successfully increase the number of paid members by nearly 30 million.

This kind of result is definitely quite a bright result even if it is placed on the side of the leading penguin video.

Although Station G has been restricted everywhere because of the traces of standing in line.

But Chi Jiang still didn't give up, looking for some low-cost but high-quality online dramas.

Although the possibility of these online dramas being able to produce a hit is relatively low.

But that doesn't mean there isn't.

The most important thing is that Chi Jiang also thought clearly, Xu Ji's company has gradually become a relatively large-scale film and television company in China.

This time, three dramas were filmed at one time, and the investment seems to be not small.

In terms of station g, it is definitely enough to only watch the main main dramas.

Even if it is the three major video platforms, it is impossible for every new drama to be the main promotion.

There will still be some new dramas that will be used to fill the resource library.

It's pretty good to be able to keep three or four quarters a quarter.

It is equivalent to Xu Ji's Tongji Entertainment, although it is not as good as the three major ones, but it is absolutely no problem to meet one platform.

Therefore, it is acceptable to have a slight period when there are no Xu Ji Company's dramas.

However, what Chi Jiang didn't expect was that the kiwi fruit side would seize the opportunity.

directly chose the broadcast of "My Captain, My Group" after the finale of "Chasing the Murderer in the White Night".

It is equivalent to being able to rub the heat of Xu Ji.

After all, both dramas were written by Xu Ji.

In the current Chinese industry, among the super-first-line screenwriters, only a few people have such treatment.

Let a drama be labeled with the screenwriter's name as the main promotional selling point.

As for the most outstanding effect, it is still Xu Ji, who looks the youngest.

For example, this time "Chess Soul" and "Chasing the Murderer in the White Night", although they are not dramas directed by Xu Ji, many people still seem to count them as Xu Ji's works.

On the contrary, there are not many people on the director's side.

Now among the directors of Tongji Entertainment, the only one who is slightly well-known is actually Pang Er alone.

After all, he has already made three dramas.

But even so, in fact, when these three dramas are mentioned, Xu Ji as a screenwriter will still be mentioned first.

Even some screenwriters in the industry have begun to call for the implementation of the so-called screenwriter core system.

That is, let the screenwriter be the main creative person, and the director needs to completely follow the screenwriter's ideas.

However, many people actually know that such an idea is just fanciful.

You must know that there is still a big difference between Xu Ji and ordinary screenwriters.

First of all, Xu Ji himself was originally a director, so although he wrote the script, some of the suggestions or arrangements given were actually reasonable.

But many screenwriters actually don't know how to think about it with the director's thinking at all.

Of course, the most important thing is that Xu Ji himself is the boss of the company.

The drama invested by his own company, of course, has the final say.

At this point, it is clear that not many screenwriters are eligible.

......

At this time, the kiwi fruit video, from bamboo is still the first time to experience the publicity advantages brought by Xu Ji's drama.

In the past, some dramas, even if they were large-investment dramas, needed to spend a lot of money and energy on publicity.

But this time this "My Captain, My Group", let's not talk about how many viewers will chase this drama in the future, but the current heat is definitely very easy.

As soon as I heard that it was a script written by Xu Ji, it was also the original version of the soldier assault.

Instead, netizens began to pay attention spontaneously.

Originally, Congzhu expected to spend money to buy hot searches, and was even ready to rush to the first place in the micro hot search.

But to Congzhu's surprise, less than half an hour after their official announcement of the broadcast time, without relying on any means of publicity, the news had already begun to appear on the hot search.

Then it became more and more on the hot search list.

From the bamboo at this time suddenly realized that there seems to be no need for the so-called excessive publicity, there is too much tap water.

It was easy to get a lot of attention.

Is this the experience of the previous G station?

It's so comfortable, isn't it?

From the bamboo at this time I feel very happy.

Because of the problem of publicity, the financial resources of kiwifruit are not as good as those of the penguins, and the other party generally has the advantage.

But if kiwi fruit will be Xu Ji's drama in the future, then isn't this popularity casual?

Thinking of this, Congzhu suddenly began to think about whether to go directly to Tongji Entertainment to talk.

Snatch the cooperation from the hands of station G.

Even if you really can't grab the opportunity for exclusive cooperation, it doesn't mean that Xu Ji's drama really has nothing to do with their kiwifruit.

From the bamboo suddenly came up with a pretty good idea.

......

At this time, Xu Ji has returned to Hong Kong City from Rongcheng again, and "Infernal Affairs" is about to enter the official start of filming after this period of preparation.

Looking at Xu Ji, who looked young but full of aura after being busy on the set, actor Long Zewei was still a little worried.

This time, the actors are basically all older than Xu Ji, such as him, who is much older than Xu Ji.

And there are some thorns in them, many of whom have a history of almost fighting with the director on the set.

Can the other party really be intimidated?

Long Zewei is actually reluctant to cooperate with unfamiliar directors.

Because each director's way of directing is different.

In addition, Long Zewei knows that his character is relatively stubborn, and many times he has his own understanding of the characters in the script.

It's good to communicate with a familiar director, but it's a little uncomfortable if I haven't worked with it before.

didn't wait for him to think about it, and soon the first scene started filming.

are all professional actors, there are no problems with their acting skills, and they quickly entered the state after the official filming began.

At this point, Xu Ji is indeed the most satisfied.

Because the shooting style here in Port City is like this, efficiency is paramount, so it looks a bit rushed.

Some directors in the mainland don't like this kind of shooting.

Of course, it is not excluded that some directors with a particularly strong personal style are not only very slow to film, but even the actors don't know what they are playing.

However, most of the directors of the port city came from the past era, so they are used to the fast-paced shooting style.

It is obviously not very difficult for them to keep up with the rhythm of Xu Ji's crew.

But it didn't take long for the problem to arise.

This scene is the rivalry between Long Zewei and Wu Zihao.

It is also one of the few scenes in the whole movie where two people play under one shot.

In the eyes of other actors, even the crew members, they can't find any problems with their performances.

It's basically the kind of level that goes over and over again.

But this is the kind of play, Xu Ji still shouted the card directly when the two were halfway through the performance.

"Two teachers, do it all over again."

......

In this way, Long Zewei and Wu Zihao, the two actors, have filmed ng five times in a row, but they still haven't met Xu Ji's requirements.

Wu Zihao is okay, because of his personality, he actually won't lose his temper openly, so that Xu Ji, the director, can't get off the stage.

But Long Zewei is a little unhappy, he has always felt that there is nothing wrong with his performance.

If it weren't for the fact that this script was really good, and he had communicated with Xu Ji before, he knew that Xu Ji was not the kind of person who was unreasonable, and he would really think that the other party was really deliberately targeting him.

But Long Zewei is not the kind of person who will hide his thoughts, so he asked directly:

"Director Xu, I want to know what kind of effect you need?"

"I don't think there's anything wrong with my performance."

……

That is, Long Zewei, everyone knows what kind of character this person is.

Even some people who haven't met him have heard a lot of rumors from some gossip media.

So Long Zewei's question at this time is not that he has any opinions on Xu Ji, but simply wants to know what went wrong with his performance.

As for Xu Ji, the reason why the requirements are so strict is also because this "Infernal Affairs" is too classic.

The most important thing is that when he sees the performances of several people, it is inevitable that the original film in his memory will be compared.

If it weren't for the better, it wouldn't have been conceded.

Fortunately, Long Zewei and Wu Zihao are both actors, and although they need to meet Xu Ji's requirements several times in a row, it should not be so difficult

Xu Ji didn't say anything, and said directly:

"Brother Hao, let's try it together."

……

Xu Ji's words surprised some of the actors in Hong Kong City present, it is common for the director to say something about the play, but it is indeed rare to see a demonstration in person.

However, the staff in Xu Ji's own crew didn't feel anything, because Xu Ji has always been in this way of talking.

Xu Ji took off his coat and fell silent, recalling the details of the performance in the original film in his mind.

Some people around were stunned and didn't react for a while, what is this?

The director is warming up and ready to act in person?

Wu Zihao was stunned for a moment, but still nodded and started the performance with Xu Ji.

At the beginning, Long Zewei, who was watching from the sidelines, actually didn't know why Xu Ji did this.

But slowly, as the rivalry between Xu Ji and Wu Zihao began, Long Zewei's face began to change and became serious.

Xu Ji really knows how to act, at least in the case of so many directors Long Zewei knows, Xu Ji is definitely the kind with strong acting skills.

However, for an actor like Long Zewei, Xu Ji's performance traces are still a little heavy.

If the two are compared together, Xu Ji is definitely inferior to Long Zewei.

But Xu Ji's identity is a director, so he doesn't need to perform too delicately, as long as the actor understands what kind of emotions the character needs to perform under the lens.

And after Xu Ji entered the role and began to perform, Long Zewei knew what Xu Ji's requirements were, and I have to say that Xu Ji's handling is indeed better than his own.

As for Xu Ji, in fact, he was able to mix in many golden supporting roles in many plays in his last life, and he still has his own understanding of acting, although he can't reach the level of an actor, but the gap is not as big as he imagined.

Although he is mainly a director in this life, it is common to demonstrate in person many times, and he is not very rusty in acting.

It's a pity that Xu Ji's energy is really limited, and if he wants to direct and act by himself, it is better to go directly to a ready-made director to save trouble.

So for the time being, I don't plan to try this identity as an actor.

After Xu Ji finished acting, he played against Long Zewei again, this time to demonstrate to Wu Zihao.

The advantage of the actor is this, there is basically no other way to tell the play.

Just do it yourself.

Basically, without any words, the other party can read from his performance what the final effect Xu Xi wants.

……

On the first day of filming of "Infernal Affairs", Xu Ji did not use any means, but simply acted in two scenes, and successfully established a very high prestige among the Hong Kong City actors in the crew.

Speaking of which, many of these Hong Kong actors are actually bad habits left over from some past experiences, and the general mainland crews find it difficult to manage, so they slowly stop using Hong Kong city actors, even if many actors are not like that.

A director like Xu Ji, who completely uses Hong Kong city actors, is now basically rare among mainland actors.

For this reason, many people actually have a good impression of Xu Ji.

But after Xu Ji showed his ability this time, many actors were very convinced of him.

Basically, they will perform according to the effect required by Xu Ji.

From the current point of view, "Infernal Affairs" is off to a good start.
