Chapter 204: Loss and Finishing

"Usurpation" requires not only a firm will and strong ambition on the part of the usurper, but also the right timing.

More importantly, be patient.

Therefore, neither Wang Wei nor Lao Wang expected the Chinese media to "turn the enemy into an alliance" overnight.

So, Lao Wang continued to stay in the company to preside over the overall situation, and Wang Wei soon returned to the "Tang" crew.

The crew looked like business as usual.

Wang Wei also checked the footage taken by Lao Xu and found that most of the footage was fine, except for a few shots that might need to be adjusted.

Moreover, although it is not as fast as Wang Wei's rapid advance, everyone is in good shape, but they also maintain normal progress and do not cause delays.

It was another thing that Lao Xu said that caught his attention-

"During your departure, the gossip about our Dunhuang and the five bars also reached the crew, which once made many actors worried, and they were in a very bad state."

Wang Wei is not too surprised by this.

Although the crew is filming in a closed area, this kind of closure is aimed at outsiders such as reporters, and it can't stop the spread of news about their own people.

And when a normal person hears that he is facing the five at the same time, it is definitely impossible not to panic at all.

Fortunately, the overall atmosphere of the crew was relatively relaxed, and the assistant director Lao Xu was more careful and discovered the situation in time, and then, Uncle Xu, a confidant of the old people, personally gave a psychological counseling to the panicked crew.

He didn't actually say much else, but pointed out one point-

This is a work directed by Wang Wei himself!

is different from movies directed by ordinary directors, to a certain extent, because of the continuous success, the label produced by Wang Wei has made the original movies have the attributes of sequel movies.

This means that a little publicity obstacle will not affect the movie's big hit; On the contrary, it is the performance of these actors that will directly affect whether the movie can continue to be a big hit.

A heart-to-heart conversation somewhat made everyone let go of the burden in their hearts.

In particular, the news that "Heart Labyrinth" has exceeded 200 million with its quality tenaciously follows with limited publicity, and everyone's anxiety seems to have completely disappeared.

The assistant director is right - what if you are suppressed, as long as the work is hard enough, you can get ahead after all.

Lao Xu was relieved on the surface, but he just wanted to sigh in his heart.

At this time, in front of Wang Wei, he asked directly: "The results of "Heart Labyrinth" look good, but we still suffer a big loss, right?" ”

He knows that the company's previous domestic box office forecast for this film is to start at 300 million;

What now? In the end, the box office can reach 300 million.

"Indeed!" Wang Wei did not shy away from it.

It is true that in the eyes of outsiders, Dunhuang is still making money, and it has earned a lot!

The problem is that Dunhuang can obviously earn more.

The simplest example, the same box office of 300 million, gets it in a week or two and a month, and the money in Dunhuang is completely two amounts.

This is still the most superficial.

Another less striking situation is that the overseas distribution of "Heart Labyrinth", even if it is in the Chinese-speaking cultural circle, has been "cold".

Of course, this is due to the influence of factors such as the local social structure, but more importantly, the popularity of this film is too weak and unattractive to overseas audiences.

-- It cannot be said that they will follow the trend completely, but in Asia, the media of various countries are greatly influenced by the mainstream media of China, and the things that are hyped by the mainstream media of China will make them pay more attention.

It is conceivable how pitiful the overseas box office of "Heart Labyrinth", which was "snubbed" by the domestic mainstream media.

And in this era, the box office is the basis for the subsequent income generation of the film!

Otherwise, the box office accounts for less and less of the revenue of the Big Five, why do the Big Five still attach so much importance to box office results?

To put it bluntly, only when the box office is hot, the subsequent DVDs and copyrights can be sold at a good price, and there are naturally people around who buy it, and image authorization is also a matter of course.

Wang Wei put up a finger: "The five major waves of suppression have made us lose at least 100 million, and I'm talking about profits." ”

This number even Zhou Lin, who had just come over, couldn't help but pinch his teeth!

——You know, after the introduction of Dunhuang's new incentive plan, they are also eligible to enjoy income dividends, can you not empathize?

"Fortunately, it is not without additional gains."

One sentence successfully aroused the curiosity of the two.

However, the evil director stopped abruptly and drove them away with the sentence "hurry up and set up the scene".

……

After Wang Wei returned to the crew, the filming of "Tang Bohu Dots Autumn Fragrance" began to enter the smoothest and most efficient stage.

On the one hand, after the previous run-in, the cooperation of the crew has become more tacit;

On the other hand, driven by Zhou Qiming, the actors who played on the same stage, especially those supporting roles, all performed the charm of "madness".

"Madness" is not the same as "madness" and "madness", "madness" is a real mental problem, "madness" is an expansion without fear, and "madness" is a pretended joke that sees through but has no way out.

- It's like having an invisible chain around your neck that you can't break free, and you can't break with fate, so you can only laugh at yourself in order to live a little more comfortably.

Wang Wei was very skeptical that without Zhou Qiming, other actors would be able to perform this kind of madness, but this did not prevent the filming progress of the entire crew from advancing extremely quickly.

Then, unconsciously, the filming of this movie finally ushered in the last few shots!

Wang Wei put the footage of "Tang Bohu vs. the Deadly Scholar" at the end, anyway, the scene was "destroyed" by them.

Don't look at the duel scene presented in front of the audience, in reality, not only is it not "dripping", but it is still a variety of "clicks"-

"Click! Xiao Ming, you want to pick the tip of his sword with the tip of the gun, not his shoulder! ”

"I'm sorry director, the main thing is ...... Knee-jerk reactions. ”

Second time......

"Click! What's going on with Wia? How do you let them fight each other like this? ”

"I'm sorry, I'm sorry, the angle is up......"

Do it all over again......

"Click! Xiao Ming, expression, control the expression...... Hanging Weiya can't stand it, right, if it doesn't work, just rest first. ”

"Wait, director, I can do it again."

“……”

"Click! It's over! ”

When the last shot was finished, Zhou Qiming was still hanging from the Wia wire, and the other staff members were also waiting with bated breath.

In the midst of everyone's attention, Wang Wei stood up from behind the monitor, held a loudspeaker and said with a smile: "Thank you for your hard work, I announce that "Tang Bohu Dots Autumn Fragrance" is officially completed!" ”

"Oh yes!"

"Bang Bang Bang ......"

Some cheered, some applauded, and of course some were stunned.

The filming of this film was not difficult, and many times it was even full of joy, but work is work after all, and there is pressure when it is work.

The completion means that many of them can finally unload the pressure and relax.

Of course, this does not include Wang Wei.

He didn't even have time to give himself a day or two off before he was going to participate in another "war" - an assault on the Pegasus Awards!
