The box office of "Monster Hunt" was 673 million in the first three days of its release, which has broken the highest record of the domestic three-day box office.

Previously, "Painted Skin 2" performed well at the box office after its release, but as a result, Zhao Buffett's fans and Zhouxun's fans immediately competed for credit.

Zhao's fans said that the biggest hero was of course Zhao, and Zhou's fans said that the box office was all about Zhou. Fans are fighting each other, and the stars themselves are constantly fighting openly and secretly.

Zhao Buffett and Zhou Xun were both absent at the premiere of the film, and the three leading actors only went to Chen Kun, and Chen Kun was blackfaced throughout the whole process.

Now there is no need to fight, "Monster Hunt" does not have Zhao Ba to star, right? The result? The total box office of "Painted Skin 2", which was a box office hit, was more than 800 million, and the box office of "Monster Hunt" was nearly 700 million in three days, and Zhou's fans have even shouted the slogan of surpassing "Painted Skin 2" in four days.

The box office of "Monster Hunt" far exceeded expectations, and Zhang Ruoyun, as the leading actor, naturally skyrocketed in popularity.

In addition, Mary's fire is also a bit sudden, Mary plays the role of the chef in the film, that is, the role played by Yao Chen in the original version, this role actually does not have many scenes, but whenever there is a scene, there must be bursts of laughter in the theater.

"Master!"

"Oh my god, what the hell, scare me!"

Many netizens said that the funniest clip in the whole film is the clip where Mary appears.

What's more, after Feng Xiaogang and Director Feng saw the box office performance of "Monster Hunt", their mentality collapsed a little, because just a few months ago, it is said that "1942", which he had been brewing for more than ten years before finally being put on the big screen, collapsed at the box office, and the film invested nearly 200 million yuan, but the total box office was only more than 400 million points, which must have lost money.

Director Feng has put a lot of effort into this film, and the evaluation of the film is not bad, but it just doesn't sell well! In the past, he played and filmed, and easily became the first in the country, but now he is serious about making movies, and the result is this, it is strange that Director Feng Da does not break the defense.

Especially looking at the box office performance of "Monster Hunt", it was released for two days, not counting 442 million in the zero point show, and surpassing his total box office in two days, which is really a bit of a slap in the face.

If the film is to be directed by Li Mu himself, it doesn't matter, it's angry because it's not it.

He Feng Xiaogang can't compare to Li Mu, he admits that it's not a shame to lose to the world's second largest director who directed films with a cumulative box office of 7 billion US dollars, but you can't crush him with any Huashang director, right?

He is also a great director who has been the national champion for many years in a row, where do you put his face?

Especially when he felt that "Monster Hunt" was nowhere near as good as his "1942".

"Chinese audiences don't deserve to enjoy really good movies!"

Director Feng Da saw it because of this, and the next movie still has to be filmed.

The cumulative box office of "Journey to the West" in three days is 563 million, which is more than 100 million less than "Monster Hunt", but it is not bad.

The film contributed a lot of classic scenes, such as Huang Bo's "I think I took two watermelon knives to cut from Nantianmen to Penglai East Road, and cut for three days and three nights, without blinking my eyes, and for example, do you really think that a banana will send me away?" ”

Of course, the clip of Li Mu's appearance in the film is also one of the most exciting and hilarious clips in the whole film. When the four beauties of the wilderness appeared in the camera carrying Li Mu, bursts of laughter often broke out in the theater.

"Wow! Where did you pull these four green onions? ”

"If you have barren mountains and mountains, it's good luck to find four."

Often as soon as this line came out, the whole theater laughed miserably, and then some people on the Internet began to call Li Mu a kidney-deficient son. For this reason, Li Mu also posted a Weibo to clarify that he is "empty", not "kidney deficiency", but netizens have said whether it is kidney deficiency or not, presumably only @liuyifei knows, Liu Yifei also reposted Weibo, and wrote: "Director Li is very healthy, thank you for your concern." ”

Good guys, netizens are crazy, and so are fans.

"Sister, this is covering for Director Li!"

"Not kidney-deficient? Unbelief! has such a girlfriend who is not kidney deficient, isn't it as good as a beast? ”

"Everyone looks at the photos of Mr. Li in the past two years, and the number of dark circles under his eyes has obviously increased, so is it unclear whether it is emptiness or kidney deficiency?"

This wave of Li Mu and Liu Yifei's fans have risen by hundreds of thousands, and the box office of "Journey to the West" has also ushered in a more obvious rebound.

After the year, Li Mu and Liu Yifei were not in a hurry to return to Beijing, this year's fifteenth day of the first lunar month is the day of the 85th Academy Awards, "Frozen" is the favorite of this year's Oscar Best Animated Feature Film and Best Original Song Awards, and then Li Mu will take Liu Yifei to fly directly from Xijing to the United States.

On the fourth and fifth days of the Lunar New Year, "Monster Hunt" won another 284 million box office, and the film has been released for five days, with a cumulative box office of 957 million yuan.

"Journey to the West" has a cumulative box office of 811 million yuan in five days.

In the next five days, the daily box office of "Monster Hunt" basically fluctuated between 90 million and 120 million, and by the end of the tenth day of release, the cumulative box office of the film had reached 1.472 billion yuan.

At this time, the predicted box office given by Maoyan Movie has also reached 2.68 billion yuan.

You must know that the current box office champion in the domestic market is only 2.3 billion yuan, that is, the record created by "Frozen" a year ago, at that time, the country was still guessing when this new record would be broken, and the general opinion in the circle at that time was that it depended on when Li Mu's next film directed by himself would be released.

However, what everyone didn't expect was that this new record set by "Frozen" had only been held for more than a month, and it was about to be broken by "Monster Hunt".

The most important thing is is that this movie is really that good? Actually, no, but the box office is unexpectedly high.

There is another situation that has also caused widespread discussion in the circle.

"Monster Hunt" had a box office of 1.472 billion in ten days, and "Journey to the West" was a little worse, but it also won a box office of 1.233 billion in ten days, and the box office of the former was nearly 80 million yuan on the tenth day, and the latter was a little less, with about 50 million.

This is very remarkable, two popular movies were released at the same time, and as a result, the box office of the two films was a big hit, and the other blockbusters had to be staggered.

There is no doubt that the Spring Festival file has grown into the most important schedule in China, and the market size of the Spring Festival file is large enough to accommodate multiple blockbusters to be released at the same time.

During his stay in Xijing, Li Mu also took the time to audition for Jingtian, which was located in the West Cinema, and Li Mu personally went down to play against him.

There will be no script yet, Li Mu originally didn't plan to copy this play, and this will not even start the creation of the original book, Li Mu first intercepted a few fragments from his mind and wrote them into lines, first to test whether the current Jingtian can perform the feeling of the future generations.

Jing Tian, who got the lines, was a little confused, because this didn't look like the lines that a normal person should have at all.

For example, Li Mu said: "When you didn't die, my grandfather happened to be in his prime, could it be that you and him?" No way? ”

Then Jing Tian said: "You don't have any attachment to this world anymore, do you?" ”

For example, Jing Tian's lines first said that Li Mu's grandfather's photos were too ugly, and then praised Li Mu for being good-looking, as if it was a genetic mutation, and then Li Mu's lines asked her not to learn some lines and use them indiscriminately, and scolded Jing Tian that she was a genetic mutation, but Jing Tian's lines wanted to say: "I am a genetic mutation!" ”

So what exactly is she going to play this time?

Jing Tian asked Li Mu, and Li Mu's answer was that he hadn't thought about it yet, if it was a ghost or a demon, it might not be able to be released on TV, and if it was an alien, there might be hope that it would be released on satellite TV.

Then Jing Tian's reaction after listening to it turned out to be great joy.

It stands to reason that the opportunity to get it so hard to get, if the new drama can't be on satellite TV, it must be a pity, but what did Mr. Li say?

He hasn't figured it out yet!

Doesn't the hidden meaning of this sentence mean that this script was written by Mr. Li himself?

Mr. Li personally acts as the screenwriter, does it matter whether this new drama can be on satellite TV? Does it matter?

It doesn't matter at all!

Then in the formal audition session, Jing Tian's performance was really not as good as the performance in the later dramas, such as when she read the sentence "You don't have any attachment to this world anymore, do you?" , I can't find the feeling of saying the most ruthless words in the most gentle tone in the original play.

Sure enough, although the actor is still the same actor, he is different in age and has experienced different things, and his performance in front of the camera is also different.

"Let's do it again, pay attention to the tone, be gentle, be gentle, and contrast the tone and lines."

Li Mu said while shaking his head.

"One more time."

"Alright, alright, let's try the next line."

"Have you seen Zhang Manyu's "Ruan Lingyu" and "In the Mood for Love"? The script of this drama has not been written yet, and the plot is generally so-so, whether it can be popular or not is actually very cannibalistic, and you have to perform that kind of amorous feeling. ”

"Again, it doesn't feel like it's in place......"

"One more ......"

As Li Mu continued to veto Jing Tian's performance, her face couldn't help but turn red, anxious, the resources she finally asked for, it seems that Mr. Li personally wrote the script, this kind of once-in-a-lifetime opportunity, but her performance never met Mr. Li's requirements, what should I do?

This audition lasted for a long time, and Jing Tian's performance was not satisfactory, but in fact, the overall look was not so bad, considering that she had not read the script yet, and she still lacked the most basic understanding of the story, not to mention being able to enter the characters, so the performance was a little worse, and it was not all her problem.

The overall problem is not big, this drama is customized for Jing Tian, and there is no option for other actors, so after making sure that she was barely qualified, Li Mu immediately told Jing Tian the result, saving the step of going back and waiting for the call.

Then Jing Tian was as if all the strength in his body had been drained away, and the person even became a little prostration.

Although Mr. Li was not very satisfied with her, she finally passed the test.

Two days later, Li Mu and Liu Yifei flew directly from Xijing to Los Angeles, USA, and the date of the 85th Academy Awards was approaching.

The Chinese people's attention to this year's Oscars is still very high, because the works of Li Mu and Li Amine, two great Chinese directors, are all the favorites for this year's Oscars.

Director Li Amine's work is, of course, "The Fantasy Drifting of Youth Pi", and Li Mu's work is naturally "Frozen".

Coincidentally, both of them are surnamed Li, so some netizens shouted the slogan "Huaxia Shuangli", but most netizens did not recognize this slogan.

Li Mu is now the only one in China, and he feels that it is not suitable to be on the same level as anyone.

Even not only Chinese netizens, but also Korean and RB netizens are also very concerned about this year's Oscars.

In recent years, the development of Korean films has actually been good, but in terms of winning awards, there is really no way to compare with Chinese movies.

There are still a lot of international awards for Chinese films, but the gap between the two countries was not big enough to make Koreans desperate in the past, until there was a Li Mu in the Chinese film industry.

Now it is completely crushed, there is almost no possibility of any challenge, how many Oscars has Li Muguang won? This year, Huaxia has simply produced two award-winning popular directors.

When will South Korea be able to have such a great director who wins glory for the country?

As for some RB people paying close attention to this Oscar, more they really like "Frozen" too much, so they very much hope that "Frozen" can really win the award.

February 24, 2013.

Los Angeles, Dolby Theatre, Hollywood.

The "Frozen" team brought by Li Mu met with the "Life of Pi" team led by director Li Amine. Li Mu and Director Li Amine said hello to each other, and after a few simple chats, they took their seats, in fact, the two did not have much intersection, and they did not have much friendship with each other, so they naturally did not talk too much when they met.

However, Liu Yifei and Li Amine chatted a few more words, when Li Amine was preparing to shoot "Lust and Caution", Liu Yifei was the ideal heroine candidate in his heart, so the two had no less contact, but in the end, Liu Yifei gave up that opportunity because of the scale of the movie, but after all, the two had an intersection.

"Do you think Director Li Amine can win the award this time?"

After taking a seat, Liu Yifei leaned into Li Mu's ear and whispered.

Li Mu also leaned into her ear and said: "You can win the best director, but you can't get the best picture." ”

Liu Yifei said with a smile: "Don't say it so surely, as if you can predict the prophet." ”

Li Mu laughed quietly: "I am an unpredictable prophet, director Li Amine will win the best director, best cinematography, best visual effects, and best soundtrack this year, and "Frozen" will win the best animated feature film and best original song awards, and the best film this year is "Escape from Tehran". ”

Liu Yifei said with a smile: "These are the favorites to win the award, and you will definitely be blinded by a few, and you will count some others if you have the ability." ”

Li Mu leaned into Liu Yifei's earlobe and whispered: "In the future, we will have three children, one boy is the elder brother, and the two twin daughters are the younger sister." ”

Liu Yifei's earlobes were red, red, and he said: "Nonsense, don't think I don't know it's illegal to have three children, I've seen that sketch, it's called "Super Guerrilla". ”

Li Mu said disapprerovingly: "When we have children, the country estimates that the second and third children will have been released, even if they haven't been released for the time being, just pay a fine when they are exposed." ”

"Nonsense, you are a big director, you are super born, and the fans scold you to death." Liu Yifei said with a red face.

Li Mu said: "It's not a big deal for the director to be super personal, don't worry." ”

"Of course I don't worry, I won't have a birth with you."

"Okay, well, then we'll have one!"

……

Soon the award ceremony officially began, and Li Mu said that it was all in the middle.

"Frozen" won Best Animated Feature and Best Original Song, "Life of Pi" won four awards including Best Director, and "Escape from Tehran" won the biggest award of the night, Best Picture.

"How?" Li Mu leaned over and asked Liu Yifei in a low voice.

Liu Yifei nodded in admiration, but he didn't expect to really hit all.

Just as Liu Yifei nodded, Li Mu continued: "I just said that we will have three children!" ”

Liu Yifei's nodding movement stopped abruptly, and then gave Li Mu a roll of his eyes.
