Lu Bu squinted on the plane for a while, woke up and asked the flight attendant, and there was still half an hour to land, and he didn't sleep again.

From the beginning of the year to the end of the year last year, it can be said that it has been popular for a whole year, with an endless stream of film contracts, variety shows, and advertising endorsements, and the value has doubled and doubled.

During the Spring Festival this year, someone offered an appearance fee of more than seven figures and asked him to perform commercially.

It's a pity that the schedule is full, and the crew of "A Chinese Ghost Story 4 Days" can no longer ask for leave, he is the protagonist, and if it drags on for a day, the waste of money is also six or seven figures.

Regarding commercial performances, he talked to Yu Feihong.

This is a one-shot deal, you can get a good reward if you set it, according to the different celebrity coffee positions, the price is naturally different, as long as the popularity and popularity are not too poor, you can get hundreds of thousands, more or even hundreds of millions, and these commercial performances often don't need much brains, and they can be completed in a few hours.

But in the eyes of many celebrities, taking on commercial performances is something that only people who have no way out will do.

However, the entertainment industry is a place where "I only see the newcomers laughing, and the old people crying", once it is no longer paid attention to, it means that there will be no resources, and there are many such stars, and it is often seen in media reports that an actor or singer who was a smash hit went to a small city in the eighteenth tier to perform commercially, which is too cheap.

How to say it, for the sake of life, it is not a shame to let go of the glory and glory of the past and make money with your own ability.

However, Yu Feihong believes that Lu Bu has not yet reached the point where he has no money to make, and he must cherish his feathers at this stage, and only large-scale commercial performances in first-tier cities can be considered.

Lu Bu didn't find any reason to refute this view, so he listened to his eldest wife's arrangement.

To put it simply, there can be no star shelf, but there must be a star force.

Speaking of making money, last year he overfulfilled the set tasks, and Lu Bu was thinking about setting a few small goals this year.

He roughly calculated that "A Chinese Ghost Story 4 Days of the Way" could be completed at the end of March, and then he entered the group "Full House of Romance" in early April, and it could almost be completed around July.

The Asian Games is December 1st ~ December 15th, before that, there are still four months to choose filming, variety shows, concerts, etc., or you can choose to rest.

In terms of investment, it is divided into two parts: inside the entertainment industry and outside the entertainment industry.

In the entertainment industry, it is the investment in movies and TV series, such as "A Chinese Ghost Story 4 Heavenly Way", "Crazy Stone" and "The Good Man of the Three Gorges", and TV series such as "Young Yang Jiajiang", "Flying Immortals Outside the Sky", "Wulin Gaiden", "Soldier Assault" and "Mythology", with a total investment of more than 50 million.

Outside the entertainment industry, it is the investment of the company and catering, the company has not increased its investment, it is still Sina Blog, Hairun and the starting point, and the catering is the original ecological hot pot restaurant and the Three Kingdoms Bar, which is expected to reach the goal of covering 100 stores in 50 major cities across the country this year.

Others, such as advertising endorsements, commercial performances, variety shows, etc., are not counted for the time being.

Seventy-seven-eighty-eight add up, and the two small goals are not a big problem.

Looking at it this way, 2006 was not only a busy year for Lu Bu, but also a year of harvest.

After half an hour of beautiful fantasies, the plane landed, and it was already 2:45 in the morning.

"Brother, Happy New Year!"

"Happy New Year, hard work, even if you don't have a holiday during the Spring Festival, you have to come and pick me up at night."

"Brother, depending on what you say, this is what I should do."

There are only three assistants in Mengjiang's studio, one man and two women, and the artists are not fixed, whoever needs to go with them, and Lu Bu has not wanted assistants for a long time, this time because the crew of "A Chinese Ghost Story 4 Days" still has Zeng Wei and Zhang Guirong, Liu Liang was arranged.

After getting into the car, Lu Bu opened his mouth and asked, "Director Xu, have they rested?" ”

Liu Liang replied: "After watching the Spring Festival Gala at 0:00, everyone went back to the room, probably resting." ”

Lu Bu thought for a moment and said, "Forget it, let's go." ”

If you don't have a break, I'm going to ask them to go to a movie together.

It's already the first day of the Lunar New Year, and "Baby Project" was released at midnight.

It's really too late, so I'll watch it after the daytime is finished.

However, the life of a night owl has only just begun.

Hugo is one of them.

He doesn't like to play mahjong, the Spring Festival Gala is over, the fireworks are over, and he can only come out to watch the movie.

Last time, because of Chen Kaige's lawyer's letter warning, he made a public apology for "A Bloody Case Caused by a Steamed Bun", very helpless and depressed, this time it was simply watching a movie, not making a video blindly, even if it was to do it, it was to entertain himself, and he would not send it to his friends again.

"Wow!"

Hu Ge thought that the movie theater would be empty at this time, but there were still a lot of people.

"Do you still have tickets for Project Baby?"

He went to the ticket office and asked, this year's Spring Festival file is just this blockbuster, and he didn't have to choose.

"There's a small hall that's going to open soon, how many do you want?"

"I want one, 5~6 rows in the middle."

The general position is located in the center line of the screen, and the eyes just cover the entire screen, which is the best position for many people, and the IMAX hall and hall are 9~10 rows in the middle of the front and back; The central hall is 7~8 rows in the front and back of the center; The small hall is in the middle of the front and back of 5~6 rows.

Hugo is a fan of old movies and must have the best experience.

I bought a ticket, bought a Coke and popcorn, and checked in to enter the venue.

"Attendance is average."

He glanced around, and sat only a third of the way.

It's normal, the one who can run to watch the movie in the early morning of the first day of the Lunar New Year is either a fan, or he can't sleep and has nothing to do.

Before the movie starts, some commercials and trailers for upcoming movies are shown on the big screen.

In the first half of the year, only two Hollywood blockbusters "The Chronicles of Narnia 1: The Lion, the Witch and the Wardrobe" and "The Da Vinci Code" were of interest to Hugo.

Other domestic blockbusters are all in the second half of the year.

A few minutes later, "Baby Project" finally started.

[Flip-flops, Baidatong and charter company are a well-known burglary trio in Xiangjiang, each with superb means, each fulfilling his responsibilities, and acting comprehensively, but each has its own faults.

flip-flops are addicted to gambling and are disliked by their families; Baidatong snubbed his wife Bai Yan and circled around a large number of celebrities all day long; The charter public treats money as his life and is used to stealing, and he just wants to save money to adopt a child so that he and his wife can get out of the pain of losing their child.

One night, flip-flops and Baidatong sneaked into the hospital to steal, and happened to be involved in the love and dispute between the two richest families in Hong Kong, the Hong family and the Li family......]

Lu Bu is still very handsome, but in this movie, the character setting is different from the previous ones, and he is a playboy who wants to eat soft rice.

The cage is still the same, trying to show the courage of the year, jumping from a high-rise building, climbing the Ferris wheel, and hitting the fluorescent lamp, many of which are dangerous actions.

Gao Yuanyuan is very beautiful, and he is very good with Lu Bu, but that's all, there are too few roles.

Ah Sa is very cute, and there is a special taste for playing a nurse, but like Gao Yuanyuan, she is a vase character.

There were not many people in the theater, but there was a lot of laughter.

Hu Ge didn't expect anything before watching it, because the recent co-productions between the mainland and Xiangjiang are too "clumsy", either a large bloody fight scene or an aesthetically outdated love scene.

And after watching it, to be honest, the plot of "Baby Plan" is old wine in new bottles, how the super tough guy deals with difficult babies, and in the near future, it is ["Super Dad" + "Gangster Thug"].

But the viewing effect was unexpected.

Although the story is old-fashioned and the plot is disjointed, there are a lot of jokes, and the whole is light.

Except for the slightly longer "confession of the heart" near the end, which is comparable to the flesh of some old-fashioned movies, most of the passages are still very happy to watch.

In this movie, there are a lot of ingredients in "cage", the plot dialogue, facial expressions, martial arts design, and even the tidbits at the end and the scrolling of the subtitles, all of which are very caged. ”

"I was able to relive the "Plan A"-style scenes, where many characters from the road met in a small space, resulting in a high concentration of dramatic conflict and comedy."

The "lines" are also full of laughs, such as the two faggot cash truck escorts in which Xie Tingfeng and Wu Yan made cameos, "I'm so enjoyable, I'll hit your ass", "It's okay, the support above is really fast, it's all up to you", "I'm from the back mountain" and so on. ”

Lu Bu's role is almost meaningless, it's not that he doesn't act well, it's a cage movie, and the supporting roles are not so brilliant, but in the end, the key role of this movie is not played by the cage, but by the "baby" in the title and poster. ”

"Yes, any action and expression of the little baby is cute, and every time he is used to create thrilling scenes such as falling from high altitudes and chasing cars on the road, it is far more exciting than the most difficult action scenes made by Cheng Cage himself."

"Eight words to describe it – for all ages, for both men and women."

……

Hu Ge walked all the way out of the theater and heard some comments from the audience.

It's not much different from his opinion, a typical commercial film.

Is it rotten? Rotten.

Can you watch it? I can see it.

It's contradictory, but it's also true.

When he got home, Hugo was still sleepy.

What should we do?

He hesitated, but turned on the computer.

Yes, I couldn't hold back.

He wants to make a video of "Baby Project", but this time it is not a simple complaint, and he will talk about the advantages and disadvantages in place, because the advantages of "Wuji" are really difficult to find.

As for the title, it was set as "A Baby's Joke".

New Year, New Weather, New Year's Day, the weather in Hengdian is good.

"Brother Lu, Happy New Year!"

"Happy New Year!"

Lu Bu gave out red envelopes when he saw people, and the money was not much, it just represented his heart.

After all, he is not only the actor, but also the martial arts instructor, as well as the investor, producer, and producer, wearing many hats.

This little money can't be saved, and the right should be mixed up with a good reputation.

"Mine?" Zeng Yi smiled and stretched out his hand to Lu Bu.

"Yes, I'll give you a big one." Lu Bu quietly took out a thick red envelope from his trouser pocket and stuffed it to her.

"Thank you, boss, I wish the boss a happy new year, good health, and a lot of money." Zeng Yu naughtily sent him blessings.

"Each other, each other." Lu Bu smiled and winked at her.

"Last night's performance, handsome." Zeng Yi mentioned the Spring Festival Gala.

"What night was my performance not handsome?" Lu Bu frowned and said.

"It's not a good line, it's in the crew." Zeng snorted.

"Brother, I heard that you sent red envelopes, I don't know if we have them?" At this time, Zhang Guirong and Wang Guxian came over.

"Of course I have." Lu Bu gave the red envelopes in his hands to the two of them.

After the vignette, let's start today's shooting.

At the same time, a variety of evaluations of this year's Spring Festival Gala appeared on the Internet.

Tianya Community:

[The opening is a fiery group dance, followed by a chorus of several people, followed by a series of sketch cross talks, and then a congratulatory telegram is recited, all of which are decent. 】

[There are very few heavyweight stars, such as the hottest "Supergirl" at present, Li Yingai, who became popular with "Da Chang Jin", and even Zhou Gaochi, who had a high reputation before, just Lu Bu and Zhou Jilun. 】

["Unforgettable Tonight" is very good, but it has been sung for too many years, I hope that next year's Spring Festival Gala can be changed, don't "Unforgettable Tonight". 】

……

Cat Flutter Net:

[The Spring Festival Gala has been held for many years, and the form has hardly changed, and even the stage design follows the routine of "red with yellow joy", which is not only not "foreign" enough, but also easy to make the audience visually fatigued. 】

[Most of this year's song programs are the ones that were played all over the streets and alleys in previous years, except for "A Thousand Miles Away", "A Thousand Years Later" and "Apprentice Eros", I can't pick them out. 】

[The language programs are not satisfactory, I really miss the amusing masters of the Spring Festival Gala in previous years, and strongly ask Chen Peisi and Zhu Shimao to make a comeback! ] 】

……

Sina Forum:

[Most of this year's Spring Festival Gala is very boring, the host is too orthodox, and as soon as Zhu Jun appears, it is reminiscent of the virtue and art of "Art Life". 】

[It is suggested that next year's Spring Festival Gala can choose actors according to the popularity of the year, whether they will perform or not is secondary, and one stop on stage is the ratings. 】

[In the selection of songs, there should be more similar to Wang Jingwen and Na Ying's new song "Meet 98", which is fresh, good and easy to sing. 】

……

Every year, countless viewers say that the Spring Festival Gala is boring, but it can be said that the Spring Festival Gala is still a myth of ratings every year.

Compared with netizens, the media is chasing stars and programs with high popularity and high topicality.

[Lu Bu and Zhou Jilun's "Thousands of Miles Away" contributed to the highest ratings of the 2006 Spring Festival Gala! ] 】

[Tong Yaya's "A Dream of Dunhuang, Fairy Flying" dances in the city! 】

[Zhao Benshan's "Talking Things" makes people laugh out of their abdominal muscles! ] 】

[Six years after his debut, he went to the Spring Festival Gala for the first time, and he was so handsome! ] 】

[It is rumored that the inspiration for Tong Yaya's dance was provided by Lu Bu! 】

[Ratings and word-of-mouth prove that popular stars and pop songs are the audience's favorites!] 】

……

One of every three pieces of entertainment news is Lu Bu's, who has become the hottest star at the beginning of the new year.

And the overwhelming reports of the Spring Festival Gala drowned out the reports of "Baby Project".

On the first day, the mainland received 9.7 million, 3.3 million in Xiangjiang, 4.8 million in Baodao Province and 1.1 million in South Korea......

Douban opened with a score of 8.2......

Decent data.

It is estimated that the global box office will be around 230 million, although it seems that the cost of 100 million will not be recovered, but counting the sales revenue of the follow-up DVD and the 45 million advertising implantation revenue that has been received, let alone recovering the cost, it is not a problem to make tens of millions of small profits.

At this moment, a video titled "A Baby's Joke" began to go viral.
