"You have to understand that the market is fair, "Little Times" made money, but it also caught up with a bad reputation, Guo Jingming = bad movies, this concept has been deepened! It's hard to say whether his movies will be blockbusters again in the future, but one thing is certain! ”

"What's the matter?"

"Anyone who is close to him has no artistic pursuit."

Hearing this, Yang Xiaomi sneered: "... So serious? ”

Shen Xudong's tone became serious: "I'm not kidding, the wave of traffic and fan movies set off by "Little Times" will last for two or three years at most... With the progress of the audience's aesthetics, high-quality movies will be seen... And the audience holds a grudge..."

Yang Xiaomi was distressed and hesitated for a long time: "I'll discuss it with the team." ”

“… Sometimes think more about yourself... Don't always listen to the team's opinions, the team's judgment may not be accurate! ”

"yes, I see!"

"If you continue to star in "Little Times", I can't guarantee that Director Xue Xiaolu will still find you..."

“… I see..."

Hanging up the phone, Yang Xiaomi hesitated, but still dialed Zeng Jia's number...

After listening to Yang Xiaomi's confusion, Zeng Jia directly vetoed: "Does Guo Jingming know how hot he is now?" The movie "Little Times" directly made the valuation of Lai TV Pictures exceed 10 billion... You actually want to stop acting? ”

"But Guo Jingming was boycotted by the mainstream film industry..."

"So what?" Zeng Jia asked rhetorically: "If you don't act in "Little Times", you will be advertised as an artist?" Do you know how much money those so-called literary and artistic workers make a year? You're an A-lister, you're different from them! ”

"But... Xudong said that if I continue to act, Director Xue Xiaolu may not need me. ”

"No, no, no, let me tell you that Rai TV recently reached a cooperation with Anle Pictures, Xu Anhua, To Qifeng, Yuan Heping and Er Dongsheng will launch their own new works, what is the concept of Rai TV? Let me tell you, the Internet + movies, the film industry is about to usher in drastic changes! ”

After a pause, Zeng Jia said: "Shen Xudong is a traditional filmmaker, and he must be biased towards the traditional film circle when he considers the problem..."

"But I definitely want to work with a good director..."

"Who counts as a good director? Zhang Yi? Will he use you? Is Li Shaohong an excellent director? There are a lot of bad movies made by big directors recently, all for the sake of making money, and no one should think that everyone is a ninth-rate..."

Hearing this, Yang Xiaomi nodded: "... You're right. ”

"Okay, don't dwell on it so much, you see which popular female star doesn't have a similar discussion, if you're confused, I promise no one will say this!"

……

The box office of "Small Times 2" is far less than the first part, with a cumulative box office of only 170 million in the first four days, and it was overtaken by "Pacific Rim" on the third day of release...

After that, he was simply overtaken by Fan Xiaopang's "One Night Surprise"...

"Small Times 2" is the lowest box office among the four "Little Times", which has a huge relationship with the fact that this film was released in the same year as "Little Times 1". Of course, there are more laughs and crying points in this film, but it is still more bloody and mentally retarded than the controversial last episode.

The most important thing is that there are more opponents in the same schedule!

In addition to the fragile "A Stormy Affair" (the box office did not reach 20 million), there are also "One Night Surprise" starring Fan Xiaopang, "Pacific Rim", "Fast and Furious 6", "Palace Lock Agarwood"...

Especially after the release of "Return to the Ruins of the South China Sea", the film schedule of "Little Times" dropped to less than 10%...

It is estimated that it is difficult to break 250 million...

The cost of "Return to the Ruins of the South China Sea" is close to 300 million, and the most important money is spent on filming and special effects...

At the premiere ceremony, the director's original words: The salary of the cast and crew together is less than 10 million, we want to make a "Return to the Ruins of the South China Sea" recognized by the audience, and it is a rare opportunity...

A huge blood moon, a ghost ship that is both real and illusory, a thousand-year-old city under the whirlpool of the deep sea, and a bone mirror of King Qin that hides countless secrets - the main content of "Return to the Ruins of the South China Sea"!

"Return to the Ruins of the South China Sea" integrates monsters, folk customs, ancient countries, suspense, ghosts and other whimsical ideas, a thousand-year-old city under layers of waves, just like the Oriental Atlantis in history...

In fact, just look at the title of the film, you can know that this is a drama that has to be carried out in the water with a lot of scenes, or the bottom of the sea!

Filming underwater scenes requires not only excellent shooting skills and strong expressiveness of the actors, but also a huge amount of money for various underwater shooting equipment...

Human beings always have infinite reverie about the sea, because they can't find it, they will be full of curiosity about it!

In fact... As long as Liu Ye, Jiang Wu, and Chen Hao get together, no matter how bad the filming of "Return to the Ruins of the South China Sea" is, it can get 500 million box office...

Of course, it's still the same sentence: if you put your heart into it, the audience can feel it!

"Return to the Ruins of the South China Sea" was released on August 15, as of August 19, it was released for 4 days, and the cumulative box office exceeded 600 million, yes, it broke 600 million in the first weekend, and the highest in a single day was close to 170 million...

"It's been six years since the "Ghost Blows the Lantern" series, and "Return to the Ruins of the South China Sea" is the most difficult. Judging from the results presented, there is no waste of time in the later part of more than a year, the technology is impeccable, the special effects have many surprises, and the plot is more in line with the original work... The details are not good, but there is nothing wrong with the general direction! ’

'The main scenes are pretty well designed, and the art is fantastic. The film completes the transition from concept design to final image very well. The 3D effect is very good, but there are also regrets: the visual effects of individual scenes are not ideal, the cutout materials are not integrated with the background picture exquisitely, and the scenes shot with the green screen in the studio are also relatively obvious... I heard that the funds have been added three times, and I am really embarrassed to ask for any more money..."

'I feel that Lu Yang is becoming more and more mature, and the completion of a blockbuster like "Return to the Ruins of the South China Sea" is very difficult to control..."

"Return to the Ruins of the South China Sea" has a Douban score of 7.9 points, with a good reputation, no surprise, the final landing point should be more than 1.5 billion...

And then... Huayi Brothers announced the creation of "Touching the Golden School Captain: The Nine Ghost Generals" and "Touching the Golden School Captain: The Corpse King";

Wanda also announced the creation of "Death Loop", with Tianxia Ba Sing as the script consultant and Cheng Long as the producer;

Tencent Video announced the start of filming "Ghost Blowing the Lantern: The Strange Story of Muye", co-produced by Tianxia Ba Sing and Huang Xiaoming...

Oh, Tianxia Ba Sing did not sign a contract with Tianmei Pictures, he formed Upward Pictures by himself.

While these are just PPTs, the... In fact, it did affect TiMi, including PPTV...

In a sense, the "Ghost Blowing the Lantern" series is indeed a support column!

How does TiMi Group respond?

……

Chen Xi held a press conference and admitted the matter:

"Our cooperation with Tianxia Ba Sing is limited to eight parts of "Ghost Blowing the Lantern", after "Return to the Ruins of the South China Sea", and "Wuxia Coffin Mountain", we are going to divide it into two episodes... If it's too late next year, it will be released the year after tomorrow! ”

"As for "Angry Qing Xiangxi" and "Yellow Skin Grave"... It depends on the situation... The actors don't want to act, and we won't force it! ”

"Thank you Liu Ye, Jiang Wu and Chen Hao for playing the same role for eight consecutive years... I would like to thank Mr. Tianxia Ba Sing for writing such a wonderful work as "Ghost Blowing the Lamp", and in addition, I personally want to thank the censorship system for always tolerating us to shoot this subject..."

"Liu Ye will be 40 soon. Chen Hao is also 35 years old, and Jiang Wu is over 40 years old... If you keep shooting, how will you shoot it? Take it when you see it! ”

"Mr. Tianxia Ba Sing's cooperation with other companies is his freedom, we have no right to interfere, and we will not interfere..."

"The "Ghost Blowing the Lantern" series of online dramas will still meet the audience as scheduled..."
