"Warring States" stumbled and persisted for half a month.

In the end, it was released in embarrassment and became a negative teaching material in the industry

Peers in the circle have calculated an account for this movie.

The investment is as high as 150 million, but the box office is only 80 million.

This "Warring States" made the stars shine and directly lost nearly 120 million!

Just when everyone thought that the company would keep a low profile for a while, the reality was the opposite.

Lu Zheng was interviewed by the media.

"Movies, which company can say that every film is a sure win? The film industry is a high-risk industry, and it is inevitable to lose money, and I have always been mentally prepared.

However, the stars will not stop. We have new plans in place to invest in two films in the second half of the year......"

When the news came out, many production companies in the industry looked sideways.

just lost a blockbuster, and in the blink of an eye, two more movies will be opened, which is simply wealthy!

To be honest, Lin Nan admired Lu Zheng's courage.

In addition, the starry two movies, don't think much about it, the heroine must still be Jing Tian.

…………

"Star Fortune" will premiere in Cannes, and promotional materials and posters are indispensable.

Lin Nan has already arranged for people to start the production, and it must be perfect.

Originally, everyone thought that this year's Cannes Film Festival would only have a Chinese film called "Star Luck".

But no one expected that in the past two days, at the last moment of the nomination time, Chen Kexin's "Martial Arts" was also killed.

"The costume blockbuster "Martial Arts" directed by Chen Kexin will enter the 'Midnight Screening Unit' of the Cannes Film Festival!"

"The new films directed by Lou Ye, Jia Zhangke and others have been confirmed to miss the ...... of this Cannes International Film Festival"

"In the copyright trading market, "Martial Arts" and "Star Luck" will be the vanguard of Chinese films."

Lin Nan really thinks that these Hong Kong media have nothing to do, and they are so idle.

You just need to report on "Martial Arts", and you just bring Lin Nan and "Star Luck".

What to say about martial arts films is our specialty, and it has always attracted much attention overseas.

In terms of copyright transactions, "Martial Arts" will definitely crush pure literary and romantic films like "Star Fortune......

Many netizens are ridiculing.

"This is an international film festival, the copyright sells more and sells less, what you look at is the award and the quality of the film, and the international influence of the director and starring is compared!"

"Just the five words 'main competition unit' are more expensive than the 'midnight screening unit', I don't know how much."

"People in small places really don't know anything, they only know about the Hong Kong Island Film Awards......"

In this way, netizens on both sides went to war inexplicably.

Many acquaintances came to joke with Lin Nan.

"Martial Arts" and "Painted Skin 2" have box office competition in China, and "Star Fortune" will be compared with the income from copyright transactions in Cannes. Chen Kexin can't avoid you left and right, haha......"

…………

The publicity of "Guan Yunchang" during this period of time has stepped on "Warring States" from time to time.

Now, the former has finally waited for his release time.

Donnie Yen's single poster in armor and holding a glaive knife has been plastered all over the major theaters.

The media is making a big splash about the film.

Because "Guan Yunchang" is the most likely to succeed in the film market for two months.

There is "Warring States" "Zhuyu in front", and many viewers are cautious this time.

Including Lin Nan, a large number of filmmakers are paying attention to the first-day results of "Guan Yunchang".

"How much?"

"14.2 million ......"

Hearing this number, Lin Nan couldn't help but want to laugh.

This is 108,000 miles away from the crew's goal of 600 million!

On the first day, you have to go up at least 30 million to be able to sprint to 500 million, and then 600 million, and you have to have a movie with a lot of stamina.

"Director Lin, the evaluation of this film is interesting, you can take a look on the Internet......"

Yue Jun put down the poster design of "Star Fortune" and left the office.

Lin Nan browsed the evaluation of "Guan Yunchang".

How to say it, there is a familiar feeling, very similar to the "Warring States" review a few days ago!

"Invest 150 million! This Qinglong Glaive cuts corners, right? It's short, it's small, it's small, it's ......."

"Give him a big handful, I'm afraid he won't be coordinated when he picks it up! The 'martial saint' in his early seventies of one meter, do you dare to think? ”

"White-faced Guan Gong, Donnie Yen!"

"Where's the beard?"

"Do all Hong Kong Island directors like to engage in foundations? Cao Cao's lines to Guan Yu are too rotten: I just like Ling ......"

"It's another historical script that is made up and changed randomly, and Hong Kong Island screenwriters can't do this job."

……

……

Lin Nan couldn't help laughing, sometimes the ridicule of netizens and the audience is better than the movie.

The comments at the beginning were superficial, and the further down you looked, the more exciting it became.

"It's a long life! Oh my God, I'm blind! What do I see?

Guan Erye's Qinglong Yanyue Knife is broken? It was trampled off by a pair of feet! ”

……

"The second master of the righteous Bo Yuntian is playing ambiguously with his sister-in-law? This screenwriter and director is a heavenly spirit cover, right? Can you make it up? ”

"Donnie Yen's martial arts drama is too stretched, and the literary drama is embarrassing. A deep style of frowning and pretending to be introverted, it's a terrible ......"

"Hey, scolding "Warring States", scolding early......"

How did the majority of netizens scold "Warring States" at the beginning, and now they are mocking "Guan Yunchang" in the same way.

However, the latter has an advantage and bright spot after all, that is, Jiang Wen's Cao Cao.

The vast majority of the audience, the only thing they are sure about this movie is Cao Cao played by Jiang Wen!

"Director Jiang, he's stealing the show again!"

"In this "The Legend of Cao Cao", director Jiang Wen performed the kind of domineering and irrepressible, the ostentatious personality of heaven and earth for me, as well as the heroic spirit of laughing and scolding people and being unrestrained......"

"Donnie Yen played a good supporting role, but there are so many more scenes than the protagonist?"

…………

The circle no longer has any hope for "Guan Yunchang".

In terms of this first-day box office and evaluation, there is only one thing worth paying attention to.

That's how long this movie can last, and how much money it will lose in the end.

On the second and third days, "Guan Yunchang" successively reported 18 million and 17 million......

The daily box office has risen, not because of how good the movie is, but because most audiences enter the theater with curiosity......

As a result, it is foreseeable that there will be more and more people scolding the crew and ridiculing Donnie Yen, and Jiang Wen is not among those who are scolded.

Donnie Yen's prestige accumulated through the two "Ip Man" has been cut by more than half again.

Something that surprised the industry happened.

The producer of "Guan Yunchang" offered a reward of 100,000 yuan, hoping to catch the masterminds of those "organized, premeditated" and "malicious evaluation" films on the Internet.

Whether it's out of hype or a real bounty, it all shows a problem, the reputation of this movie is completely rotten.

Some people's brains are really not very good, such as Donnie Yen.

When the media mentioned Jiang Wen or Cao Cao played by the latter in front of him, he always subconsciously blackfaced.

With this expression management ability, you can only be an action actor for the rest of your life.

Immediately afterwards, some Hong Kong media began to accuse Jiang Wen of being disrespectful, a drama bully, and deliberately stealing the show as a supporting role.

And there are more and more such remarks, and there is a faint tendency to evolve into a scolding war......

…………

Liu Yifei has already begun to prepare for her trip to Cannes in more than half a month.

This is the first time she has participated in an international film festival with her work.

Liu Xiaoli and the Red Star Dock team are extremely busy.

Because Liu Yifei has a lot of high-luxury endorsements, and the red carpet in Cannes is the world's top high-end occasion that brands do not want to miss.

Dresses, jewelry, watches, handbags......

Several sets have been set these days, and they are still being adjusted.

"You mean the red carpet for the opening ceremony is also going to be on the show?"

Lin Nan used to participate in film festivals, even in Berlin and Venice, he rarely attended the red carpet of the opening ceremony.

Liu Yifei pouted, pretending to look at Lin Nan innocently, and then winked at Lin Nan mischievously.

"yes, you'll have to walk with me on the red carpet of the opening ceremony.

You don't want me to be alone, do you? ”

Liu Yifei knows Lin Nan's habits, he usually goes to film festivals, and he rarely walks the red carpet of the opening ceremony.

The red carpet of this kind of international film festival is very important to actresses, and Lin Nan will certainly not refuse.

"Well, of course I won't leave you alone. I'll accompany you and use it as a backdrop for you, okay? ”

"Hmm."

…………

At the end of the first week, the box office of "Guan Yunchang" came to 110 million amid a scolding.

The one-sided bad reviews and bad word-of-mouth finally made the movie box office begin to eat back.

On the eighth day, the daily box office fell by 5 million, and it is still ......

This box office trend is the same as "Warring States".

Many industry insiders are predicting that the total box office of "Guan Yunchang" should fall around 150 million, not more.

The "war" between Donnie Yen and Jiang Wen on the Internet has no intention of stopping at all.

Jiang Wen's violent temper is not something that anyone can provoke if he wants to.

When the media asked, he replied directly:

"Don't call me a bully. I can't play it well, steal the limelight from the protagonist, and just hack me like this! If you have those thoughts, it's better to hone your acting skills more.

Cultivation and self-cultivation are going to come up, and they are almost fifty years old, and they are not mature at all......"

Many people in the mainland feel that Jiang Wen's words are both true and harmful.

Although he did not name him, everyone could tell that he was talking about Donnie Yen.

Arrogance, arrogance, arrogance, and no one in sight, especially after "Ip Man", is even more obvious.

is about the same age as Liu Dehao and others, but when it comes to personal cultivation, quality, and wisdom, it is simply eight streets behind!

To put it mildly, in Lin Nan's opinion, Donnie Yen is a typical brainless.

The next day, there was gossip in the circle.

Wen Jun from Hong Kong Island personally stepped out and made peace in the middle, and it took a lot of effort to make Jiang Wenyan stop and expose the matter......

There is only one "action superstar" left over there who can still play twice, so naturally he has to keep it.

However, this kind of behavior of taking the lead in making trouble and taking the initiative to seek peace has given the Hong Kong Island film industry the illusion that the scars have been torn apart.

Now is different from the past, Hong Kong Island filmmakers have lost the strong capital of the past......

Next chapter, continue a little later.
