Entering September also represents the complete end of the summer season in 2015.

If you want to say that the hottest movie in this year's summer file, it must be [Monster Hunt].

And the most popular actor, that must be what Gu Wei didn't say.

"A Smile is Alluring", which was named a masterpiece of campus youth TV dramas by the audience, won the first place in the box office of film history [Monster Hunt], the small screen and the big screen blossomed together, and the TV series and movies were both harvested.

Whether it is popularity or real results, Gu Wei is far ahead.

And Bai Lily, who cooperated with Gu Wei in [Monster Hunt], also gained a lot in the summer file.

In the past two months of 7 and 8, she has successively had [Monster Hunt] and [Get Out! Three movies, "Tumor Jun" and "City in Love", were released.

[Monster Hunt] Don't mention, the two movies that will be released in August later, [Get Out!] Tumor Jun] is a chick movie in collaboration with the male god Wu Yan Group.

I have to say that Bai Lily is really high in the film industry now, [Get out! Tumor Jun] She pressed Wu Nanshen to resist the box office, and the final result was not bad, and she got a score of 500 million.

Although it is not as exaggerated as [Monster Hunt] with Gu Wei, it really proves her status and box office appeal in the field of chick movies.

As for "City in Love", it is a platter movie that tells the love stories of 5 couples.

Bai Lily is just one of the heroines, and the other four are Yang Mi, Jiang Shuying, Jiang Yiyan, and Zhang Rongrong.

It stands to reason that this movie has a movie café like Bai Lily that can carry the box office, and a very popular 85 flower like Da Mimi, and the other three female stars are also big beauties, and they were released in time for the Qixi Festival, gathering all the conditions for box office hits.

However, as I said before, whether a work can be popular in the entertainment industry or not is often a metaphysics.

A film and television work that is not well-made may become an inexplicable fire; And dramas that are ready for all big hits may also be very miserable.

"City in Love" is the latter.

No one expected that this love movie, which was favored by everyone, would only have a box office of more than 50 million in the end.

Now that you are in 2015, not 10 years ago, there are domestic films with a box office of hundreds of millions, billions or even more than 200 million, and 50 million movies can only be said to be pounced.

The investor has lost all his money, and the money he gets is not even enough for the actor's salary.

Bai Lily also suffered a little bit, and her rising momentum slowed down slightly.

As for Da Mimi, she has adapted to her movie hitting the streets, but she doesn't have much reaction.

It's just that I'm looking forward to the already finished filming of [I Am a Witness] and [Embroidered Spring Knife 2].

Especially the [Embroidered Spring Knife 2] in cooperation with Gu Wei, which she regards as her own turnaround in the film industry.

There is also a female star in the summer file circle who is very popular, and has been compared with Bai Lily by the media and the audience.

That is Wang Luodan, who is very similar to her appearance and temperament.

Since both of them became famous, Bai Lily and Wang Luoshan have been compared.

I have to say that in the entertainment industry, if two stars are of similar age and type, they will inevitably become enemies.

Because there are so many good resources, what suits you must be suitable for me, under mutual competition, even if there is a friendship and a friend, it is inevitable that they will part ways because of interests in the end.

is like the fairy sword sisters, no matter how good the relationship is when several people start filming, when everyone becomes famous, it will inevitably go to opposition due to the drive of interests.

The so-called friendship is very fragile in the face of real money and career development.

There are also three little ones later, everyone is of the same age, similar in style, and they rely on the team to keep warm when they are not famous.

After becoming popular, even if there is no contradiction between each other, the teams behind each other will compete for endorsements for artists and film and television resources, and the team will naturally disperse over time.

If two people are not only similar in age and style, but also have some similarity in appearance, then needless to say, mortal enemies!

This is the case with Bai Lily and Wang Luodan.

Although both of them have stated in interviews that they will only be themselves, they don't care who the audience compares themselves to.

But this kind of is just a beautiful word on the face.

The competition between the two has never stopped.

It wasn't until later that Bai Lily had a finger Zen affair, and a reporter interviewed Wang Luodan, and she couldn't control her joy at all.

It felt like a big pie falling from the sky, and her expression seemed to tell the audience:

'Win hemp, sister won't act! ’

Of course, the two are still in a life-and-death contest.

Wang Luoshan also had 3 movies released in the two months of the summer file, [Breaking the Wind], [Otaku Detective Guixiang], and [Scorching Sun].

is basically stuck in the release of the three White Lily movies.

It's just that if it is compared to the box office, she will lose too badly, not to mention compared with [Monster Hunt], just [Get out!] The box office of 500 million is more than her three movies combined.

In particular, Wang Luo's single monoclonal antibody box office [Otaku Detective Guixiang] lost both box office word-of-mouth, and the final box office was less than 50 million, which completely hit the street.

Only [Scorching Sun] helped her win back a city with her super reputation, but the most brilliant in this drama are the two male protagonists, Deng Chao and Duan Yihong.

Wang Luoshan is the heroine, not to mention the edges, and her role and proportion are really not much.

In general, the two female stars in the summer film and television industry who were ridiculed by everyone for "sharing a face" ended with Bai Lily winning the title of "Box Office Queen", completely overwhelming each other.

"Okay, Mr. Hou, don't worry, my side will finish filming soon, and I will definitely not be able to delay the publicity work of [Langya Bang].

In terms of online publicity, you can send the materials to my agency, and the domestic team will work with the crew to make efforts in online publicity.

Rest assured, I am confident in the quality of the TV series, and I will definitely pay attention to the publicity."

In the interval between the filming of the movie, Gu Wei received a call from Mr. Hou of [Noon Sunshine] and confirmed the time for him to return to China, because [Langya Bang] will be launched at the end of September.

Although this drama is popular in the original time and space, it is among the top few in 2015 in terms of word-of-mouth, ratings, and broadcasts.

But in fact, [Langya Bang] was not brilliant when it was first launched.

In the case of the simulcast of Beijing and Shanghai, the ratings ranked after 5 in the same period.

Later, with the slow broadcast of the TV series, it started low and went high, and it sprung up due to the ultra-high reputation.

In the second half of the broadcast, the ratings of the two stations broke 1, and the ratings of the same period also occupied the first and second place.

It is even more popular on the Internet, and the number of webcasts has been rising.

The reason for this is the relationship between actors.

Although [Noon Sunshine] is very powerful in the production of dramas, the hottest TV drama market now is the Xianxia theme and idol dramas.

The original male protagonist Brother Hu, during that time was the trough of his career, he failed to enter the big screen, and the small screen has been eating the old book of [Fairy Sword].

After the car accident, he disappeared from the circle for a while due to recuperation, which led to a sharp drop in popularity.

The heroine Liu Tao has been paying off her husband's debts since she got married, and she has received a lot of bad dramas, and her word-of-mouth popularity is not as good as before.

Although the other supporting roles have good acting skills, they are not famous.

Therefore, when [Langya Bang] was first released, no one paid much attention to it, and the ratings were not worthy of its excellent production at all.

It was not until the later stage that it relied on word-of-mouth to counterattack and became a popular drama among the audience.

Brother Hu and Liu Tao returned to the top with the help of [Langya Bang], and other supporting actors also enjoyed part of the dividends.

But that's different now.

Because of the appearances of Gu Wei and Tang Yan, the current [Langya Bang] has attracted widespread attention from the audience before it is broadcast.

Especially Gu Wei's fans, they have been looking forward to this TV series for a long time.

And Gu Wei's version of [Langya Bang] is also very expensive, the first round of double broadcasts in Beijing and Shanghai, each single episode is 2 million, a total of 216 million.

The exclusive broadcast rights of the network were bought by Tengxun Video at a package price of 150 million.

Aside from the cost, the whole drama brought more than 200 million profits to [Noon Sunshine], and of course, there is also Gu Wei's [Wei Mingxia] 20% investment share.

This kind of revenue allowed Hou Hongliang to truly see Gu Wei's ability to lead dramas.

Now that the TV series has not been launched, TV stations and video websites are just optimistic about Gu Wei's starring role, so they have invested huge sums of money to buy it.

This situation has never been encountered in [Noon Sun] before.

Because although everyone knows that the quality of the TV series they produce must be fine, good quality does not mean that everyone likes to watch it.

How much money is the broadcast platform willing to spend, and how much income can they get from watching TV series completely.

The main one is advertising.

Now the reason why the TV series starring Gu Wei can sell so well is entirely because after the TV station spent a huge amount of money to buy it, the advertising investment will be able to make up for it immediately, and it will make a lot of money.

Of course, the TV station is willing to do such a good thing.

In the same way, video websites pay attention to the increase in membership and advertising revenue in the case of a high number of views.

This is a win-win situation, as long as it is a TV series starring Gu Wei, from the producer to the broadcast platform to the manufacturer who pays a huge amount of advertising money, everyone feels that they have made money.

The only thing that may be hurt is other TV series in the same period.

It is because of the fact that he has such a huge profit from starring in TV series, Gu Wei rarely takes on foreign dramas now.

He has his own production company, and there is no shortage of scripts, so it's not good to shoot by himself.

When the time comes, pull in some broadcast platforms like Tengxun Video and Mango and Lychee, Gu Wei eats meat and shares a little soup for them, why use his fame to make money for others.

[Langya Bang] was shot at the beginning of last year, when his company's production capacity was not good, and the scale could not keep up, so now there is no need to worry about this problem at all.

In mid-September, the two movies "Monster Hunt" and "Pancake Man" were painted one after another after two months of release.

[Monster Hunt] finally got a box office result of 2.67 billion, pushing the domestic movie box office record up by more than 200 million.

[Pancake Man] also achieved a good score of 1.14 billion, which is similar to the original time and space.

[Anle Pictures], President's Office.

Jiang Zhiqiang took the movie data sent by the assistant and looked at it carefully with a smile.

"Monster Hunt", which was released for 59 days, has broken more than 200 box office records, with a box office score of 2.67 billion, becoming the domestic film with the most box office records since the box office statistics of the Chinese film market in 1994.

Now that the movie is released, it also marks the final box office dust has settled.

Jiang Zhiqiang couldn't be more satisfied with the current results, and he was in a particularly good mood.

After a while, Director Xu Chengyi knocked on the door and came in.

"Haha, Lao Xu, sit down~"

Jiang Zhiqiang put down the data sheet in his hand and got up with a smile to greet him.

Director Xu sat down on the sofa, also smiling.

When I decided to return to China for development, I didn't expect that I could become the highest-grossing commercial director in China with a movie.

The surprise came so quickly that it was completely unexpected.

"Now that [Monster Hunt] has been completely painted, you also know the box office results, and you have contributed a lot!"

Jiang Zhiqiang happily praised Director Xu, he felt that he had made the most correct decision to ask Xu Chengyi to return to China.

"Don't dare~Don't dare~, the success of the movie is the credit of all the production and cast members of the crew, I just did my duty as a director."

Director Xu said modestly.

"Haha~ You don't have to be modest, I know it all in my heart.

This time the movie is a big hit, and you should be the first to do it.

We have been friends for so many years, I definitely won't treat you badly! ”

Jiang Zhiqiang patted Director Xu on the shoulder and promised him.

Xu Chengyi smiled and didn't say anything, he had already prepared for this kind of thing, the movie was sold to such an extent, [Anle Film and Television] made a lot of money, with his understanding of Jiang Zhiqiang, the other party would definitely not be stingy.

"That's right, Lao Xu.

[Monster Hunt] Since it has been drawn, no matter how good the results are, it is a thing of the past.

Do you have any thoughts on making a sequel? ”

[Monster Hunt] is selling so well that it is simply intolerable not to make a sequel.

Jiang Zhiqiang has long planned to create a big IP for a series of movies.

If possible, shoot one after another, just like the Fast and Furious series.

In this way, it will not be a one-shot deal, [Monster Hunt] will become a gold mine, bringing [Anle Pictures] a steady stream of income.

Listening to Jiang Zhiqiang's words, Director Xu lowered his head and thought for a while.

"I also have this idea, I probably have a story framework in mind, and I will slowly sort it out when I go back, and then let the screenwriting department enrich it."

"Okay, you can do this quickly, although there is no rush now, but we can make other preparations after the script comes out."

Jiang Zhiqiang commanded.

"Understand, Mr. Jiang, I must get it done as soon as possible."

After chatting about business, Jiang Zhiqiang said with a smile on his face:

"By the way, I've already made a plan to hold a movie celebration in a few days, and I'll want you to have a few more drinks then."

"I remember that Gu Wei went to the United States to film, don't you wait for him?"

Director Xu wondered.

"Why, I've already contacted him and I'll be back in a few days.

Gu Wei is the biggest hero of our drama besides you.

How can the celebration be without our male protagonist! ”

The publicity and distribution of "Monster Hunt" was manipulated by Jiang Zhiqiang, and he knew best the benefits that Gu Wei's strong box office appeal brought to the movie.

At that time, he will have to discuss with Gu Wei about starring in the second part.
