Beijing, a cinema

Director Chen and his wife Chen Hong, who simply made a disguise, are also watching the movie "Rise to Fame" at the moment.

Different from "Painted Skin 2", which has been released for nearly two weeks at this time, "Search", which has just been released for three days at this time, is a direct competitor to "Rise to Fame".

What's even more worrying is that "Search" didn't perform very well at the box office.

The box office on the first day was 11.2 million.

After that, the box office of the two weekends combined was only a little over 30 million.

If it goes on like this, whether the box office in the first week can be 70 million is not necessarily guaranteed, and the most important thing is the theater schedule.

Now the highest film is "Painted Skin 2", which still accounts for about 30%, while "Search" is only 20%, and the remaining 50% is other movies.

And this is just the situation before the release of "Rise to Fame", according to the popularity of this movie, there are upper films, middle films, and light behind it, and the proportion of films scheduled on the first day is 20%, and it is not impossible to have more than 30%.

The plate is so big, and there is one more "gluttony", and the other families must let it go.

The box office performance of "Painted Skin 2" is here, even if the meat is cut, it will not be too outrageous, more films are bound to be squeezed from other movies, and "Search", which ranks second and does not perform as well as it should, naturally bears the brunt.

According to the estimation of the distributor of "Search", I am afraid that they will have to give up 3~5% of the film schedule today.

This will undoubtedly be a big shock to the box office of "Search".

And, if "Rise to Fame" performs well at the box office, then the situation will be even worse, I am afraid that "Search" will not only have to give up the above schedule, but will also be further compressed by "Rise to Fame" in the future.

The cost of "Search" is not high, and the industry estimates that if Chen Dadao's expenses are added, the production cost will be about 30 million, and if you count the publicity, it will support 50 million.

These investments, as long as the box office reaches 150 million, can recover the cost, and the pressure is not too great.

But now that "Rise to Fame" has stepped in, the follow-up situation is a bit difficult to figure out.

And people make movies, not just to return to their roots, who doesn't want to make more money, so Director Chen deigned to be noble and took his wife to investigate the enemy.

If Wei Yang is not worthy of his name, "Rise to Fame" is vulnerable, so naturally there is no need to say more.

But if the standard of "Rise to Fame" is good, then you must go back as soon as possible to prepare for the countermeasures, no matter how you say it, you can't really lose money.

But now that they have watched the small half of the movie, Director Chen and Dadao are a little silent.

Regardless of how many slots Director Chen has, he still has vision and strength, and he doesn't discuss the level and perception of the movie "Rise to Fame", but he knows that such a movie is liked by the audience and the market.

If the completion of the plot in the later part is not low, this movie is likely to become a fierce rival of "Search".

This is still Director Chen has a filter for himself, and he said it around, and Chen Hong's view next to him is more intuitive.

She is Chen's producer, and she has a good understanding of many situations in the industry, and her appreciation level is not low.

As far as the plot of the first half of "Rise to Fame" is concerned, she knows that this movie is definitely more popular than "Search".

It's not that the quality of "Search" is low, but that the subject matter is limited.

Before the release, everyone may not be sure, because even if it is a realistic theme and a movie that is more literary, it is not without a box office hit.

Now that "Searching" has been released for a few days, word-of-mouth and box office trends have gradually become clear, and at this time, there is a more popular and more pleasing theme style of "Rise to Fame", you can imagine what the situation is.

Director Chen may have also pondered the collapse of the plot behind "Rise to Fame", which led to a significant decline in the quality of the movie, and Chen Hong was relatively calmer.

Wei Yang is not a rookie director, although he is a newcomer in the film industry, he is a veteran producer who has been tested in the field of TV dramas for a long time, and he is the most prestigious existence in the industry in recent years, with brilliant achievements, not to mention Wang Fatzi and Ning Hao to help check the gates.

Chen Dadao's eyes are above the top, and he can't look down on TV series and the young Wei Yang, but Chen Hong will not underestimate each other.

The first half of "Rise to Fame" is eye-catching, even if Wei Yang's movie experience is inexperienced, at most the middle and late stages are mediocre, but the probability of a direct overturn is too low!

Thinking of this, Chen Hong was still a little resentful, originally she wanted to avoid "Becoming Famous", or negotiate between the two parties to see if she could wait a few more days.

This kind of situation where the two crews discuss each other and adjust the schedule is still very common in the industry, everyone is seeking money, if the relationship is good, and the decision is in the interests of both parties, many times it is possible to reach an agreement.

It's a pity that Director Chen is too confident in his works, and his impression of Wei Yang is more of a so-called "idol drama screenwriter", so he thinks it's not to worry.

In the end, he insisted on going his own way and vetoed the suggestions of Chen Hong and others, and the bayonets of both sides were red.

As a result, we are now in this embarrassing dilemma.

Director Chen doesn't eat fireworks in the world, even if he makes mistakes, he is obsessed with art and doesn't understand the world, but no one can be responsible for the losses suffered because of this, only she, the producer, can wipe his ass.

Even so, Chen Hong still has to coax Director Chen.

Because the sentence "Don't impose your preferences on the audience" in the movie really has a certain directionality, and the audience sitting in front even directly mentioned Director Chen's name.

Based on Chen Hong's understanding of Chen Dadao, this kind of irony that pokes directly into the lung tube is not lethal and extremely insulting.

Artists are very arrogant, and directors are strong professions, so whether in the crew or at home, Director Chen is the king of heaven.

He didn't speak, his son didn't dare to eat at the table, and others dared to disobey, so they directly blackened their faces and even became angry.

This kind of face is considered to be a mockery, if Chen Hong doesn't coax a few words, she is really afraid that the other party will walk away.

Director Chen was indeed a little unhappy, but he was not as angry as Chen Hong thought, because there are too many movie phenomena with the plot of "Rise to Fame".

Satirizing a person is called ridicule, and satirizing everyone is the style, with high directionality, but it's not just about him, anger is there, and it won't break the defense.

Now, he is more interested in the later development of the movie, and even began to deduce it himself, and then verify it with the movie.

Although he still has a lot of reservations about many aspects of this movie, he still recognizes the script and Wei Yang's screenwriting level to a certain extent.

Let's go back to the plot of the movie "Rise to Fame", the male and female protagonists had a conflict, and after dancing together in the dance hall, everyone temporarily returned to the united front.

At this time, the dragon set played by Wu Jing accidentally found a bloodstained room, and from the mouth of the policeman played by Lin Gengxin, everyone realized that they not only communicated with the murderer face-to-face today, but also came to the scene of the murder.

Now everyone is frying!

Although the murderer is dangerous, he is now in the stage of being subdued, and it seems that he can communicate easily.

But the scene of the murder is another matter, and the thought of so many dead people, and the big night, everyone is panicked.

After all, no matter how fierce the person is, he is also a human being, but this kind of murder scene is likely to involve supernatural beings, as long as he encounters this thing, it is not acceptable to ordinary people.

So this time, everyone's resistance was extremely fierce, including the previous vase actress and Hollywood tricks, who also chose to leave.

At the critical moment, the tycoon came out to control the field again, but the result was not ideal, and everyone completely tore their faces.

Director Wang of bad movies directly revealed the situation of the tycoon - there is money on the surface, but in fact he has lost a lot of money, and the so-called project just wants to trap everyone, and then find someone to invest now.

And the tycoon was debunked, broken cans, and no longer pretended, and at the same time grabbed other outputs one by one, and also tore everyone's disguise clean.

Wu Jing, who claims to be an action actor who has come back from Hollywood, wants to promote Chinese martial arts-

"Aren't you just a martial arts stand-in over there, you know a fart, learn to promote martial arts, and eat well?"

"Every day, foreigners are beaten in the face like buttocks, you are not afraid of losing face."

Wu Jing forcibly saved his respect: "Although I was beaten, I played all Japanese, and I didn't lose the face of the Chinese." ”

This special patriotic way attracted sarcasm and ridicule from the tycoon, and also made the audience laugh.

After that, the tycoon exported the king of bad movies, pointing out that the other party made a bad film, which has stinked on the street and has been excluded and marginalized by the industry.

The expired old drama played by Uncle Ge wanted to round the scene, but he was not let go.

It turned out that the old drama bone was a well-known silent film emperor twenty years ago, short-tempered and pretentious, and then a sound film came, the old drama bone had a bad voice, and he was bald, and his appearance was not there, and now he can only accompany the rich wife to play cards to live, and his temper is also sleek and sophisticated.

As for Fan Xiaopang's vase actress, her feelings were twists and turns, she was smeared by her ex-husband, her husband went bankrupt, and she could only come back to maintain the family's livelihood.

was debunked by the tycoon, Fan Xiaopang was ashamed and aggrieved, the fairy cried, I don't know how many viewers were amazed, and I couldn't help but feel distressed.

Including Chen Hong, Fan Xiaopang has cooperated with Chen Dagang, and Zhuang Ji played by "Zhao's Orphan" looks good, but the memory point is just like that.

In "Rise to Fame", the other party's role is not particularly much, but it is difficult to ignore, this scene of the fairy crying is even more direct to the hearts of the people, Chen Hong asked himself, even if he forgets the plot in the future, I am afraid that he will still remember this scene.

And Director Chen Dadao still pays more attention to screenwriting and directing techniques.

To be honest, although the previous "Rise to Fame" is good, it is just like that, it is above the level, but it is not amazing.

But this scene is really a bit of a way, the truth is quick, tearing off the fig leaf of all the characters, and reshaping these characters to a certain extent, making several characters more vivid and three-dimensional.

From the plot side, all the characters are tied together, and everyone really starts to unite.

And the picture structure, character positioning, line polishing and actor performance are also very good, especially Jiang Wu and Fan Xiaopang, which can be called wonderful.

If before, Director Chen just thought that the theme of the movie "Rise to Fame" was more pleasing and the box office was favorable, so he could become the opponent of "Search".

Now Director Chen finally faced Wei Yang, a junior he never cared about before.

With his character, it is not enough to say that Wei Yang is terrible, but it must also be objectively admitted that the film industry has another strong momentum.........
