Chapter 375: Earn more to count
In China, there are many female stars who can serve as the heroine, but there are few who may take the lead.
Gu Sisi has undoubtedly proved himself.
And now it's popular.
She is not playing a major role, but a series.
Picking up the girder of a movie is completely different from provoking the girder of a series.
Of course, whether to provoke a series or not, it remains to be proven.
After all, "Resident Evil 2" has not yet been released.
However, the movies starring Gu Sisi are not bad at the box office.
Among today's actresses, Gu Sisi has the most cumulative box office.
And it's gold-rich.
"Do you want to make a cameo?" Gu Sisi asked Zhang Shengdao with a smile, "Director Han asked me before if you would come to visit the class?" ”
"Forget it!" Zhang Sheng said, "Maybe I will be pulled by Director Han to play a little eunuch!" ”
"Isn't it possible?" Gu Sisi said with a smile.
Zhang Sheng's concerns are not necessarily unreasonable.
However, if he really plays a little eunuch.
Gu Sisi still has a sense of anticipation.
I just think it's weird.
"You play the empress, I play the eunuch?" Zhang Sheng said, "I don't do it. What's more, I'll go back early tomorrow morning. ”
"What's the hurry?" Gu Sisi said, "The matter in North America is over, you shouldn't be busy now, right?" ”
"Busy!" Zhang Sheng said, "I'm going to release an album. ”
"Huh?" When Gu Sisi heard this, he paused for a moment, then nodded and said, "Foreign language album? ”
It seems not surprising that Zhang Sheng opened up his popularity in Europe and the United States and released an album to stabilize his fame.
If there is no movement, then it is strange.
Zhang Sheng released an album, even if it was a foreign language album, and he definitely didn't have to worry about sales.
Perhaps, the country can make a profit.
"Half and half!" Zhang Sheng said.
"That's it! With your personality, most of the songs included in the collection should be new songs, right? Gu Sisi said, "Director Han seems to be preparing to write a theme song for you!" I'll push it for you then. ”
"Hmm!"
Zhang Sheng nodded.
It wasn't that there were no songs about the Empress in his mind.
It's just that who knows if Han Yu will be satisfied.
It's okay to push it off.
What's more, Zhang Sheng really doesn't have much interest in helping others write songs.
The film and television works of his own company are only occasionally written.
"Your company's "Detective Chinatown" is estimated to be the champion of this year's summer file." Gu Sisi continued.
Now Changsheng Entertainment's movies seem to be the schedule champions no matter what schedule they are released.
"It's too early to tell." Zhang Sheng shook his head and said, "Who knows if there will be a blockbuster movie in the future." ”
"Detective Chinatown" has a good reputation, and the box office has been the single-day box office champion since its release.
The estimate of this film on the Internet also exceeded 1.5 billion.
This is a lot higher than the box office of the original.
In this regard, Zhang Sheng has also become accustomed to it.
Gu Sisi smiled and didn't say anything.
Indeed, no one knows what the box office of the films released in the second half of the summer will be.
However, although there are blockbusters, the box office is average.
It's not as good as "Detective Chinatown".
"Detective Chinatown" has been released for nearly two months, and the cumulative box office has exceeded 1.6 billion.
There is no doubt that it is another film that makes a lot of money.
The investment cost of this film is not high.
This film is drawn, and the promotion of "Resident Evil 2" has gradually increased.
Before that, "I Am Not the God of Medicine" and "Farewell My Concubine" were also launched successively.
Zhang Sheng was busy recording songs during this time, but the preparation of the film "East Becomes West" did not put down.
It's just that Zhang Sheng didn't do a lot of things himself.
Of course, it is not without Zhang Sheng's participation.
The actions designed inside, such as the eighteen palms of the dragon, the magic power of the fingers, the finger fingers, etc., did not use the design of the TV series, but were redesigned with reference to the original version.
Gu Sisi's drama has also been completed.
The publicity of "Resident Evil 2" gradually increased, and Gu Sisi and others naturally participated.
In this movie, the cast is quite strong.
There are not only Gu Sisi, but also Liu Yun and Wu Jie.
Of course, the biggest box office appeal of this movie is Zhang Sheng.
Before, Zhang Sheng's box office appeal was not bad.
And the North American box office of "Terminator" exceeded 100 million, and he became famous in China, and the box office appeal naturally rose and went further.
Now Zhang Sheng's box office appeal, there are really no two domestic directors who can compare with him.
If you add his own popularity and other bonuses, it is estimated that Jiang Bin will not be able to compare.
And the selling point of this movie is obviously not only on Zhang Sheng.
Wu Jie, Gu Sisi and others are also very appealing at the box office, and there is the first foundation, this movie is undoubtedly the most anticipated movie by fans on the National Day.
And this is also reflected in the film arrangement.
Twenty-nine percent!
How?
If it's a general schedule, it's definitely not much.
can be in the National Day file where a large number of films are gathered, but it is not easy to win such a schedule.
"Resident Evil 2" ranked first, while the second film got only 20% of the schedule.
It can be seen that the advantages of Zhang Sheng's movie.
It's not just a distribution advantage.
The film itself is also enough to get the highest ranking film in the National Day file.
"I thought you wouldn't be able to make it?" Zhang Sheng looked at Wu Jie and said.
"I expected a traffic jam and left early." Wu Jie smiled and said, "Am I smart?" ”
Wu Jie's schedule is very full.
However, he also took time out to participate in the promotion of the movie.
This is the first promotional conference for "Resident Evil 2".
Originally, he had not planned to participate in several promotional activities.
Scheduling issues.
Zhang Sheng filmed "East Becomes West" to get an all-star lineup, and Wu Jie pushed some things for this, and the schedule was vacant.
That's when I had time to attend this promotional event.
"Clever!"
Zhang Sheng nodded.
Leave early, anyone can think of it.
The question is whether you can go early, that's the problem.
It's not a question of whether you're smart or not.
It's a matter of attitude.
"Seeing that I am promoting such a positive part, you won't shirk the groomsmen and bridesmaids, right?"
Wu Jie looked at Gu Sisi with a smile, and then said to Zhang Sheng.
"It depends on the size of the red envelope you pack."
Gu Sisi saw Zhang Sheng looking at him, then smiled and said.
She knew that Wu Jie would get married early next year, and the best man and bridesmaid had never mentioned it before.
However, Gu Sisi did not refuse.
The best man and bridesmaid must have a red envelope to take.
However, the size of the red envelope does not matter.
Gu Sisi said that, but it was just a joke.
She is not short of that red envelope.
"Great! Big for sure! Wu Jie smiled and said.
How big can a red envelope be?
No matter how big it is, how big can it be.
Can it be more than they can spontaneously spontaneous?
Wu Jie will get married early next year, and the wedding date has been set.
The best men and bridesmaids are obviously not only Zhang Sheng and Gu Sisi.
In addition, Peng Yuqian and Liu Yun are too.
Isozin and Yu Xiaoxi seem to be too.
Zhang Sheng didn't know how many there were, and he didn't pay too much attention to it.
Wu Jie's bride is not an insider.
"Then you can't favor one over the other." Liu Yun said with a smile.
When Wu Jie heard this, he immediately smiled and responded.
The red envelopes of the best man and bridesmaid are naturally the same, can they be different from person to person?
The press conference began soon.
There were quite a few media reporters present.
After all, the movie is still very attractive.
"The box office reputation of the movies produced by Changsheng Entertainment is extremely good, and the films that shoot sequels, in addition to "Wolf Warrior", are also "Resident Evil".
In the reporter's question session, a reporter asked Zhang Sheng.
"The box office of "Wolf Warrior 2" has increased several times compared to the first one, so what about "Resident Evil 2"?"
Can it be several times as many times as the first part like "Wolf Warrior 2"?
Apparently not.
"Resident Evil" also broke the billion mark.
Zhang Sheng doesn't think he can, and he probably doesn't think anyone can.
"There are actually not many films whose sequels have reached the box office of their predecessors, let alone multiplied several times." Zhang Sheng shook his head and said, "I am still very confident in the box office of "Resident Evil 2", but if it is said that it will create a miracle like "Wolf Warrior 2", then I don't have any confidence." ”
"If the fans give me some confidence, then I'd love to see it." Zhang Sheng said, "In addition, in addition to "Wolf Warrior" and "Resident Evil", Changsheng Entertainment also made a sequel to "Baby Zhiduoxing". ”
"Baby Wisdom and Stars" filmed the second part.
But if it is a sequel, it is still somewhat controversial.
"Wolf Warrior 2" and "Resident Evil 2" are the continuation of the first part.
Especially Resident Evil 2.
"Wolf Warrior 2" is actually another story.
Same Protagonist, Different Stories.
What about "Baby Wisdom and Stars"?
It's more of a continuation of the style.
However, the sequel, in the eyes of many people, is not a continuation of the plot to be called a sequel.
The continuation of the protagonist is also counted!
The continuation of the style is also counted!
Media reporters naturally won't argue with Zhang Sheng about whether "Baby Zhiduoxing 2" is a sequel.
They pay more attention to the other.
For example, the box office of "Resident Evil 2".
"Director Zhang thinks that the box office of this movie can surpass the previous work, and what is your expected box office?"
A reporter asked.
To reach the box office like "Wolf Warrior 2"?
It's a bit impossible.
""Resident Evil 2" has been upgraded compared to the first part in terms of action and scenes." Zhang Sheng said, "The box office has surpassed the previous work, and I am still confident." As for the expected box office, the higher the better. Who is afraid of a lot of box office? ”
Is Zhang Sheng looking forward to the box office?
Yes.
I just didn't say it.
He mentioned it to Gu Sisi and others in private: Two billion!
"How much does Director Zhang think the box office of this movie can rank first in the domestic box office list?"
A reporter asked.
Now the domestic box office list.
The first one is naturally "Wolf Warrior 2".
With a box office of more than 5 billion, it is unbeatable.
The second is "The Terminator", and the third is "Starfield"!
Both films are more than three billion.
It's about the same, and it's close to the four billion mark.
And what about the fourth-ranked film?
"Black Moon", which has not broken the two billion mark.
As for the later films, the box office is very similar.
"I don't know about that." Zhang Sheng said, "I hope to be in the top five." ”
The top 10 or something, then needless to say.
If this movie doesn't make it to the top five, it probably won't be a success.
Of course, the box office of this movie is hundreds of millions, and it can basically pay off.
For many film and television companies, not losing money is success.
But for Zhang Sheng, making money is not a success, but earning more.
Who made all his previous films earn a lot?
