Chapter 239: 2012 of the Great Outbreak of the Huashang System
The box office on the fourth day of "Non-Embarrassment" has dropped significantly compared with the third day, from 213 million in a single day to 143 million yuan in a single day, and further fell to 127 million on the fifth day.
On the sixth day, it reported 114 million yuan, and so far the film has been released for a total of six days, with a cumulative box office of 1.054 billion yuan, breaking the record of the fastest box office in China of more than 1 billion yuan.
The seventh day reported 116 million yuan, and the eighth day was 97.41 million yuan - "Non-embarrassing" also created a record of more than 100 million yuan at the box office for seven consecutive days.
At this time, the box office forecast given by Maoyan Movies has also been raised to 2.13 billion yuan.
It seems that the first domestic film with a box office of more than 2 billion yuan is really about to be born.
At the same time that "Fei Embarrassed" broke a series of box office records, "Time and Space Traveler", which is also a film of Huashang Media, has also entered the intensive publicity period before the release of the film.
The completion date of "Time and Space Love Traveler" is only slightly later than "Living Together in Time and Space", and last year, the company felt that there were more films of the same company that were released at the end of the year, and in order to avoid the situation of fighting with their own movies on the same schedule, the release schedule of the film was postponed to Valentine's Day this year, that is, February 14.
At the end of January, director Shen Junsheng, who had just finished filming "20 Years Old Again", came to Li Mu's office, along with Bai Bing. She is both the heroine of "20 Years Old Again" and the heroine of "Time and Space Traveler".
The large-scale publicity of "Time and Space Traveler" has begun, and as the heroine of the film, Bai Bing naturally has to be on standby at any time to participate in various promotional activities arranged by the company.
"How long will it take for the latter part of 20 to be completed?"
"If it's fast, it's early April, and if it's slow, it's mid or late April."
"If all the post-production work can be completed in early April, it will be scheduled to be released on May 1st, and if the time is too late, then it will be scheduled for May 20."
"Okay." Director Shen Junsheng said.
The white soldier next to him was already full of smiles from his eyes to his cheeks.
"Time and Space Traveler" was completed very early a year ago, but due to various considerations, the company finally set the schedule on this year's Valentine's Day.
Regarding the arrangement of the schedule, Bai Bing doesn't understand it very well, and she doesn't think these things she should worry about, but last year, from "Beijing Meets Seattle" to "33 Days of Broken Love", and then to the release of "Living Together in Time and Space" starring Tong Liya, the company's three films are really popular.
Especially the film "Living Together in Time and Space" starring Tong Liya, a film with a production cost of only 10 million yuan actually received a box office of 1.1 billion yuan.
"Time and Space Love Traveler" and "33 Days of Broken Love", "Beijing Meets Seattle" and "Living Together in Time and Space" are similar in genre, Zhao Liying, Gao Yuanyuan and Tong Liya can become popular with these three movies, so why can't they also become popular with "Time and Space Love Traveler"?
If she may have been a little less confident before, now she doesn't have that worry at all.
"Time and Space Traveler" has been confirmed to be set for February 14, and the new film "20 Years Old Again" seems to be scheduled for early or late May, so that his two movies are almost connected.
In just three or four months, two movies starring herself have been released, and if only one of the two movies explodes, then she is Zhao Liying, Gao Yuanyuan and Tong Liya from years ago.
If both movies are explosive, this kind of large-scale exposure in such a short period of time may be even more popular than the three of them who exploded a year ago!
As soon as he thought of this, Bai Bing's heart was full of joy, and even the eyes that looked at Li Mu unconsciously became more admiring.
Unexpectedly, Director Shen Junsheng really mentioned the issue of this schedule arrangement, he asked Li Mu, saying Mr. Li, you deliberately postponed the release of "Time and Space Traveler" last year, were you already thinking about the release of two movies starring Bai Bing in a short period of time at that time?
Li Mu really didn't think about these last year, but it seems that this arrangement is somewhat beneficial to the white soldiers? There is no need to deny it, so he generously admitted that he did have the intention of considering the company's artists, which made Bai Bing moved.
Let's not talk about the final effect of this arrangement, a director as big as Senior Brother Li Mu still has such a big business under his hands, and people can still want to take care of themselves when arranging the release schedule of their movies, isn't it just too flattering?
After talking about the schedule of the film, Li Mu and Shen Junsheng talked about Di Li Reba and Jin Chen, both of whom played roles in the just-completed "20 Years Old Again".
Shen Junsheng's evaluation of Jin Chen is not bad, saying that she has certain acting skills and talent, but when evaluating Di Li Hot Bar, he just repeatedly emphasized that this actor is really, very beautiful.
Di Li Hot Bar is Li Muli's main sign-in company, and Shen Junsheng is not good at saying in front of Li Mu that this girl seems to have a really average acting talent.
Li Mu generously admitted that Di Li Reba did have a lot of deficiencies in acting skills, but said that this girl could be among the top tier just by virtue of her appearance.
Li Mu was full of praise for Di Li's appearance, which couldn't help but make Shen Junsheng and Bai Bing think of some rumors on the Internet, that is, Li Mu actually likes to look a little exotic, from Tong Liya to Di Lire.
The time entered February, and many films that were approved in the middle or end of last year began to enter the intensive finishing period.
First of all, the film "Fast Pursuit" directed by director Lin Chaoxian and starring Wu Jing was officially announced to return to China.
Immediately afterwards, "Huaxia Partner", directed by Chen Kezin and starring Huang Xiaoming, Deng Chao, Tong Dawei and others, was officially announced.
Then it was approved in the middle of last year, directed by Xu Chengyi, and starring Zhang Ruoyun, Zhou Xun, etc. "Monster Hunt" was officially announced.
Finally, even "Shark Beach", which was approved in October last year, directed by Guo Fan and starring Yang Mi, was officially announced in February.
If you add the film "Search", which has completed all the post-production work for a period of time, it means that this year, Huashang Media will at least have seven films to be released, including "Time and Space Traveler", "Search", "Return to 20 Years Old", "Fast Pursuit", "Huaxia Partner", "Monster Hunt" and "Shark Beach".
This does not include films such as "The Hunger Games 2", "Fault in the Stars", "Send You a Little Red Flower" and other films that Li Mu is about to direct himself, except for "The Hunger Games", the production cycle of the other two films is actually very likely to be released within the year.
In addition, "Frozen", which has a production cycle of more than two years, is likely to be able to complete all the production work within the year, and the progress of the film is about a year faster than expected.
With Li Mu here, almost all the creative links of "Frozen" do not need to waste time, Li Mu directly copied the content from the original movie in his previous life, and these contents came to the production team of "Frozen", which became a genius-like design.
Many people in the team are saying that Director Li Mu is not only good at filming in the field of live-action films, but he didn't expect Director Li Mu to be able to directly reach the point where many professionals feel ashamed in the field of animation.
Then someone refuted the person who said this, and the person who refuted told the other party that Director Li Mu was not just ignorant of animated films.
Strictly speaking, in the field of live-action films, director Li Mu is also self-taught!
In the end, the person who refuted couldn't help but give everyone another popular science of Director Li Mu, or Mr. Li's glorious resume.
According to public information, Li Mu actually studied computer science in college, and a computer major inexplicably became one of the top three directors in the world.
"Director Li Mu studied computers?"
Not to mention, there are really a lot of people who don't know this, and then someone in the "Frozen" team sighed that Director Li seems to have learned in vain.
Then he was popularized by Director Li's science again, and he was about to take out the crippled group takeout of Ele.me.
So is Director Li Mu's computer really learned for nothing?
It doesn't seem to be.
From Maoyan movies to grouping, these two very fast-growing companies are more or less involved with computers, right?
In short, you can't talk about Li Mu, and when you talk about Li Mu, it makes people feel that this person is abnormal.
It stands to reason that the appearance of such a person in the world is as if there is a bug in the world.
How can anyone know so many things without a teacher?
In short, if you add "Frozen", which may be released this year, then this year alone, Huashang Media may release as many as 10 films.
Even if it doesn't reach 10 films, there are at least 9 films.
That is to say, Huashang Media has films released in most months this year, if it is only a dozen films a year, in fact, it is not an exaggeration just to look at the numbers, but if you look at the box office records of Huashang films in recent years, the scale of these nearly ten films is very scary.
In recent years, almost all of the blockbuster films in China are Huashang films, and based on this alone, it is impossible for major theaters and theaters across the country not to sell the face of Li Mu and Huashang Media when arranging film scheduling.
Zhang Yimou in the original time and space can repeatedly force the theater to increase the proportion of account sharing with the aftermath of "Hero", Li Mu and his Huashang department in this time and space, if a certain theater or theater is really not allowed to screen its own films, there is really no theater that can afford it.
Let's continue to talk about the follow-up box office situation of "Non-embarrassing".
After entering February, the daily box office of "Fei Yi" remained in the range of 80 or 90 million for about a week, and then fell to the range of 40 or 50 million, and the predicted box office given by Maoyan Film at this time was further increased to 2.213 billion yuan.
The box office of 2.2 billion yuan, when converted into US dollars, has exceeded 300 million.
And the box office of 300 million US dollars, even if you look at the global market, is already a very good result, that is to say, now only with the single film market of Huaxia, it can already give birth to the top works in the global box office.
In this regard, domestic fans are all very excited.
Speaking of which, the total global box office of the film directed by Li Mu himself has reached $5.5 billion, and it is expected that this figure will increase to more than $5.8 billion after the release of "Non-Embarrassment".
And the current second-ranked director Cameron has a total box office of $6.2 billion.
In other words, soon the gap between Li Mu and the world's second-ranked director Cameron will be less than $400 million, and probably this year, Li Mu is very likely to become the world's second-largest director at the total box office.
James Cameron, this god-like director in the hearts of many fans, is about to be surpassed by our local directors in China, who would have dared to think ten years ago?
The key is that Li Mu is only 28 years old this year.
Too young!
In the past, some netizens said that the director of tens of billions of dollars felt that it was very far away, and it seemed that even the world's No. 1 director Spielberg could not easily reach this number, but at present, it seems that maybe Li Mu is really likely to rush for the title of the world's first director with tens of billions of dollars.
……
At the end of February, Li Mu will go to the United States, and then he will stay in the United States for a few months, during which the preparatory work for "Shocking Demon Thieves" can start in advance.
After Li Mu finished filming the two versions of "The Hunger Games 2" and "The Fault in the Stars", the preliminary preparations for "The Shocking Demon Thieves" were almost ready.
Therefore, Li Mu personally made a phone call to Guo A, his favorite candidate for the Four Knights.
suddenly received an invitation to Li Mu's role, and he was still the protagonist, to be honest, Guo A himself was actually very surprised, and it would not be an exaggeration to say that he was flattered.
In terms of age, Guo A is nearly 30 years older than Li Mu, it stands to reason that Li Mu asked Guo A to act Guo A Guo A should not be flattered, but in terms of status and international influence in the film and television industry, there are really few actors in China who can be calm after receiving Li Mu's invitation to the protagonist.
Isn't it just for fame and profit? has starred in Li Mu's movies, can this fame still follow?
When fame comes, will there be less of this profit in the future?
Guo A's previous drama was to read the script, but when it comes to Li Mu, it can be completely omitted. Judging from the past history, the film and television dramas produced by Li Mu and Huashang Media under his name really don't have bad scripts.
So with just one phone call, Guo Answer's role was basically decided.
After that, Li Mu made another call to Zhang Songwen, and the phone only said that there was a character who wanted to ask him to give it a try, if he was interested, then the two of them made an appointment and asked Zhang Songwen to go to Huashang Media for a trip.
Not to mention that Li Mu personally called Zhang Songwen, even other very ordinary directors looked for him, and Zhang Songwen didn't shirk at all.
At this time, Zhang Songwen, almost every director who worked with him had to praise him for being a very good actor, but after being praised repeatedly, he would still not be able to receive the play for a long time.
Sometimes the reality is so helpless.
Everyone knows that you are good, but everyone rushes to use very popular actors, not very good actors.
Don't talk about others, in fact, it's almost the same as Li Mu.
Last time, Li Mu and Zhang Songwen had already cooperated in "Latent", and the role of Long Er played by Zhang Songwen in the play also won unanimous praise from the crew of "Latent", but then?
After "Latent", Li Mu also did not look for Zhang Songwen again.
It wasn't until this time that Li Mu began to prepare for the "Shocking Demon Dao Troupe" project, and then he finally remembered Zhang Songwen, an actor.
After Zhang Songwen came to Huashang Media, Li Mu asked him to try a scene, and then determined the role of the thief among the four knights on the spot, and handed it over to Zhang Songwen to play.
It was only at this time that Zhang Songwen finally knew that the role that Li Mu invited him to play was barely the protagonist, although he was only one of the four horsemen and a group drama, but one of the protagonists was also the protagonist!
Director Li Mu's play, the investment amount is said to be as high as 70 million US dollars, and there are international superstars like Cheng Long and Liu Yifei in the starring role, and he can play one of the four horsemen in the film, the thief, Director Li Mu invited himself to play such an important role.
Zhang Songwen was inexplicably sour.
