Chapter 235 The first domestic director at the box office

"The Tuner" has been in theaters for 10 days, and soon "Avengers 2" will also land in domestic cinemas.

But now Li Jingkun and they are no longer as panicked as before, one is because their own movies are also very strong, and their reputation and attendance are very good; The other is because even though "Avengers 2" is amazing at the overseas box office, it occupies a share of 3 drops after all, and the domestic 2D theater will still be the world of "Tuner".

There must be an impact, but there is no way to do it, no matter what, you have to continue. And when he was on a roadshow in Tianfu Province, Liu Tianxian actually said that he was coming to him, which surprised him a little; But his girlfriend is coming, and he is not doing anything wrong, so naturally there is no reason not to agree.

"Didn't you just separate? Just miss me like that? ”

"I haven't had anything to do lately, so I'll go out for a walk with you. I'm afraid that your roadshow will be boring and hard! Liu Tianxian really hasn't had anything to do recently, but the reason why he couldn't help but run over to him as soon as he separated was mainly because he was stimulated by the words of netizens - he missed him twice in a row, so he was a little panicked and wanted to compensate him.

Finally, in the evening, after the two of them were alone in bed, she was a little careful to say the problem.

“······ Let me ask you a question. ”

"You say."

"I forgot to thank you twice in a row, do you blame me?"

“?” Li Jingkun was a little puzzled: "Twice?" ”

"It's an award speech once, and then a scarf ······"

“·····” This girl was honestly a little cute, he obviously didn't remember twice, but she directly and obediently confessed.

At this time, it has only been two or three years since the closing of the Kyoto University Student Film Festival, but he was busy running the roadshow and didn't play with the bib at all, so he didn't notice what netizens were saying.

Of course he knew that the acceptance speech was missing, but he didn't notice the scarf; But even if he knew, he wouldn't care much, because he felt that Liu Tianxian had said it very well that night, and he didn't need to add anything.

It's just that I didn't expect her to care so much. So he said, "Yes." ”

"Huh?"

"Didn't you say I wouldn't blame you? I said yes. ”

"Huh? Are you sure? Woo woo, I'm sorry, I was so happy and excited at the time that I forgot about you ······"

"......" Liu Tianxian began to lie on his chest and feigned crying, hoping to escape because of this.

"But it's not that I can't forgive you."

"Unless?"

"Well, of course it's conditional forgiveness - there's one thing I've been thinking about for a long time, how about we go and order a 'Wang Yuyan' dress? Or the same clothes from 'Zhao Ling'er'......"

“······” Of course, Liu Tianxian knew that she would definitely pay something this time, but she still didn't expect it to be this.

At this time, what she remembered in her heart was Wang Dazhu's words: I never expected that I would finally get his forgiveness, but I have to ············ On May 12, Omi's masterpiece "Avengers 2" was released, with a box office of 206 million on the first day, surpassing the previous blockbuster "Transformers 4" of 196 million, ranking second at the first-day box office in mainland film history.

At the same time, this result also broke the Tuesday box office record of "Fast and Furious 7" on April 14 with 167 million, and became Disney's best result in China.

6 days later, the box office of "Avengers 2" was released in the first week, and it got a heartbroken 910 million, setting a new domestic record for the first week!

At the same time, it is also a well-deserved weekly box office champion this week! Of course, the market share of "The Tuner" was squeezed by it, but fortunately, the reputation and popularity laid in the early stage are still there, so this week's results will not be too ugly, and there are still more than 200 million box office bags.

The total box office also came to 1.28 billion. The box office of "Tuner" has been squeezed, and the fate of other works can be imagined.

Since the release of "Avengers 2", except for "The Tuner", the attendance rate of other films has basically been as low as less than 10 people per game····· The box office results are extremely ugly!

On that day, the filmmaker finally remembered the fear of being dominated by an Omi blockbuster······

"It's still a pity, if only I hadn't come across this blockbuster." In Longqi Film and Television, Li Jingkun held a meeting with Zhou Deze, Sheng Yuan and others in the conference room; At this time, looking at the latest week's box office results, Zhou Deze said a little helplessly.

Although "The Tuner" still got more than 200 million box office this week, since the release of "Avengers 2", the decline is still relatively large, and it is still quite heavy on its film and television.

If you don't encounter this kind of blockbuster, but other movies, it will not be difficult for "Tuner" to get an extra 100 million this week.

"There is no way, it is impossible to be completely in the right place and in the right place at the right time and in the right place as we want. The schedule we are optimistic about is what other blockbusters want. "Without "Avengers 2", there may be other blockbusters, but this year there are many works whose influence and appeal are not inferior to "Avengers 2".

For example, "Fast and Furious 7" in April, such as "Hong Kong", "Monster Hunt" and "Jurassic World" and so on.

Of course, "Hong Kong" is their own film of Baixi Media, and it is definitely impossible to arrange two of their own works to fight in the ring together.

"But no matter what, this result has broken through Dong Li's highest box office record!" Yes, three weeks after the release of "The Tuner", the box office exceeded 1.28 billion, which has surpassed the results of his two previous works, so the highest-grossing work directed by Li Jingkun has come out, and this is the final result, and it will continue to break through this number in the future!

Therefore, in the case of "Avengers 2" raging domestic entertainment, the publicity of "Tuner" still cannot be left behind.

"Let's continue to follow up, now the roadshow is over, but don't slack off on other publicity work, although "Avengers 2" is menacing, but as a home battle, we still have a lot of advantages!" Such as publicity, such as key extension!

Yes, "The Tuner" will definitely be postponed for one more month! So propaganda still can't be left behind!

Judging from the attendance rate of this movie, it will still be able to get back a lot of box office in the later stage! And "Avengers 2", it is generally impossible to let it be postponed.

As soon as I came in, I was going to go for more than ten or two billion, what do you want····· So this is also one of the advantages of domestic films!

That's all you can do to comfort yourself······

"Li Jingkun's new film "The Tuner" broke a personal box office record!"

"The latest box office record of "The Tuner" is 1.28 billion, and Li Jingkun has become the first director to have two movies break 1 billion at the box office!"

"The first domestic director at the box office, and the first in the total box office of Li Jingkun's films!" Yes, after the box office of "Tuner" exceeded 1.28 billion, these promotions and drafts soon began to break out!

Although it is an exaggeration, although in the near future, directors such as Yu Zheng, Ning Hao, and Zhou Xingxing will also have a second work with a box office of more than 1 billion, but it will not affect the media to start touting Li Jingkun at this time!

It's all about not dropping the popularity of "The Tuner" and not being suppressed too much by "Avengers 2"!

And if you're serious, it's not an exaggeration, because these are facts. Before Yu Zheng's "Hong Kong Embarrassment" was released, and before Ning Hao and Zhou Xingxing's new works were released, Li Jingkun was indeed the first person to have two films with a box office of more than 1 billion, and he is indeed the director with the highest total box office, so he is not wrong at all!

To be honest, it's not a killing at all······ And this information may not be kept for too long, and after "Monster Hunt" and "Hong Kong" come out, everyone may forget about these reports, because there are more exaggerated works coming out············ After the roadshow of "The Tuner" ended, Li Jingkun's work began to focus on other places.

First of all, the work of "Bouquet of Love", such as preparing for the release of the film, and at the same time, he has to leave a few days to go to the country of Liguo - the 21st is the time when the film will be screened at the Guna Film Festival, and then he has to go over with Liu Tianxian.

This time I just went to the screening, just like Zhang Guoshi's "Return" before, just treating it as a propaganda position, and it didn't need to stay long.

However, the organizers invited them to walk the red carpet of the opening ceremony, so they may also go to the opening ceremony at that time, and then fly back, and stay for two or three days when the screening is held in a few days.

Yes, this time because I was busy, I didn't follow from beginning to end. …… Because of the amazing performance of "The Tuner", after the roadshow, naturally many peers in the circle will greet him in various ways, ask him to eat or something, mainly in the hope that there will be opportunities for cooperation in the future.

This is all a normal phenomenon, and there are often many people in Longqi Film and Television who want to seek cooperation. However, Brother Long, who had chatted for a long time at the Xiangjiang premiere last time, also followed a little closely, and seemed to really like Li Jingkun's movie, so I talked to him a few times later.

Now that he was not as busy as before, I contacted him again. In fact, there is nothing wrong with cooperating with Brother Long, after all, Li Jingkun has also been thinking about how to expand his influence overseas and box office results.

It's just that when cooperating with Brother Long, there will still be more things to consider. The first thing to consider is the salary.

Li Jingkun's movies are becoming more and more popular now, so there will be more and more big names who want to cooperate with him.

It was Brother Hua before, and now it is Brother Long. However, the latter is a little different from the former. Although Brother Hua's salary is not low, it has not reached the ceiling.

Previously, because the director involved many Xiangjiang filmmakers, the salary was discounted.

Therefore, Brother Hua's salary is not very outrageous. But Brother Long's salary is quite a lot, even if he makes domestic films, he will be discounted, but generally it will not be lower than a certain number, after all, the coffee position is there, after all, the global influence is there.

Therefore, remuneration is an issue that needs to be paid attention to. You must know that "The Lion of Heaven", which was released during the Spring Festival not long ago, looks very high at the box office, with a score of nearly 800 million, but the total investment is 400 million, so it seems that the film side has lost a lot of money······ The second thing to consider is the subject matter.

Brother Long's personal style is more obvious, and he must find a work that suits his style. The best is of course the action movie.

The third is to consider the scale of production and the market. Since it is a work in which Brother Long participates, it must be better to consider the global market; And because his personal salary is so high, the scale of production must not be low.

Referring to the movies he has starred in in recent years, you will find that most of them are at least 200 million to 400 million production funds.

But to be honest, there are very few works that really make a lot of money. Brother Long's market influence and rate of return in recent years are really not as good as some new rising actors in China, such as Yu Zheng, Huang Bo, Huang Baoqiang and so on.

If you simply want to consider the domestic market and simply consider earning the box office of the domestic film market, it is really better to choose them than to choose Brother Long············ A while ago, Li Jingkun and they were busy with the matter of "The Tuner" and didn't pay much attention to Gana, in fact, the recent film festival is still as lively as ever.

And this year will only be more lively than the previous year, because this time there are three Chinese films involved here.

The first is "Assassin Nie Yinniang", which is very popular at home and abroad, and the latest masterpiece prepared by film master Hou Xiaoxian for 10 years.

the second is Section Chief Jia's "The Old Man of Mountains and Rivers"; Both of these are in the main competition. the third is Li Jingkun's "Bouquet of Love"; Although I didn't make it to the competition unit, the recent popularity is not low!

One is that director Li Jingkun's popularity has been very great recently, and a "Tuner" that broke the box office record of Chinese movies has brought his fame to a new level.

So his other movie that has not yet been released will naturally enter everyone's field of vision, which has invisibly attracted a lot of attention.

The other is that Longqi Film and Television Company has begun to build momentum for this movie, and the publicity has slowly unfolded.

The last one is that the filmmaker also broke a big news, that is, this movie even has the participation of director Jiang Wen!

Although it is indicated that it is only a cameo, it does not affect the media to hype up this gimmick! Jiang Wen is also a well-known director at home and abroad, and his relationship with Ga Na is also very good, and he has been exhibiting his works in recent years, so he also has a certain reputation here!

Therefore, the new generation of directors with the great director Jiang Wen is still quite topical and attractive! Not to mention that Ga Na is quite interested here, domestic netizens were also very curious when they heard about it for the first time, I really don't know how Jiang Wen will appear in Li Jingkun's movie.

"Isn't it an urban youth romance? How could it be related to Jiang Wen? ”

"I'm curious, too, and I really want to see what it's like."

"After all, this time is a literary film, and it doesn't violate the harmony of a literary film with Jiang Wen, right? And I heard that he played himself in the movie this time! ”

"It's just a cameo, so there shouldn't be much of a scene, right? But I'm still curious, I don't know what he will appear in his movies. ”

"When did Li Jingkun and Jiang Wen also meet? And is the relationship so good? I also gave him a cameo in the movie! ”
