275, Chinese director No.1, Wu Yu's mentality collapsed... Fast man? The terrifying power of the Palme d'Or!
After the box office of "Twilight" appeared on the first day, the online reviews began to increase.
Some people said that they liked it very much, the beautiful pictures and attractive plots satisfied the worship of love among boys and girls.
However, there are also a large number of people who said that they couldn't accept this extremely bloody plot, complained wildly, and some even published articles saying that they were very disappointed in Chen Fei......
But this does not prevent the box office from continuing to rise.
When returning to the crew of "Mulan", Chen Fei received a call from Natasha.
On the other end of the phone, the girl was very excited: "In the first three days of the first weekend, the North American box office has approached 100 million US dollars, can this movie with an investment of less than 30 million US dollars still catch up with "Rise of the Planet of the Apes"?" ”
"Stop daydreaming."
Chen Fei directly poured a basin of cold water on her: "This type of movie earns money from book lovers and fans, and it may be all the rage, but it won't last long, and it's good if North America can get 200 million." ”
This is like the movie that Jie Chou discussed, not to mention the film and his acting skills, just relying on his name, fans can brush the box office of the movie to 100 million!
It's the power of fans to movies!
The explosiveness is strong, but the durability is not good, a little stronger than early Xie Neng, but it is not much stronger...
"Well, it looks like my expectations are still too high."
Natasha was still a little disappointed...
"Hey? You are purely frugal to luxury, from luxury to thrift, 30 million US dollars of investment, only in North America can have 200 million US dollars, what do you want? ”
"That's the same, hee-hee, you're busy, I'll keep an eye on the preparations for Twilight 2."
…
hung up the phone, and while Liu Yifei was putting on makeup, Chen Fei called Han Sanping again.
"What was Twilight's first-day box office in China?"
"13 million yuan on the first day, 3,600 yuan today, according to this trend, the probability will reach about 130 million."
Saying that, Han Sanping was inexplicably a little envious: "I wondered, how did that brain grow?" The style of the film can be changed casually, but it can be earned! ”
The box office data of "Twilight" in North America has appeared on Sina.com.
In three days, nearly 100 million US dollars, that is, nearly 800 million yuan.
A lot of people are going crazy looking at this data!
Chen Fei shrugged his shoulders, "The fan effect and the market size determine the box office results, if you are envious, then hurry up and expand the domestic theater chain..."
"Forget it, just wait."
For investing in high-production blockbusters, Han Sanping is a fan.
But if he is allowed to develop the cinema chain under China Film, he always feels that he has no confidence, so he has been picking and searching and not daring to expand big.
On the contrary, the Pan Asia Cinema Line, which is held by Golden Harvest, has recently been fully rolled out in the Shenzhen Stock Exchange, and is expanding wildly with the Shenzhen Stock Exchange as the center.
Chen Fei specially told Huo Qigang that if he wanted to make money, he would use at least 2/3 of the theater's revenue for expansion, and the remaining 1/3 for maintenance and daily consumption.
The show is waiting for the future, the tuyere is coming, among these flying pigs, Pan Asia Cinema must be the fattest one!
The data in North America changes day by day, and the overall trend is very good, which also makes the two brothers of the Wang family who are visiting the crew of "The King of Kung Fu" very envious.
"Brother, do you think our film can surpass "Twilight"?"
"I think so." Wang Zhongjun analyzed quite seriously: "Twilight's box office growth seems to be very fast, but basically those female fans are chasing, like chasing stars, this model will not last long, after all, book fans are fixed."
And our "King of Kung Fu" has international superstars such as Chen Long and Li Lian, and their fans are no less than Twilight's fans, so it is inevitable to surpass the former! ”
This was said very firmly, and Wang Zhonglei suddenly smiled,
"Then I'll rest assured, the investment of 70 million US dollars, if there can be 300 million US dollars in North America, it will already be a big victory."
Both of them are looking forward to a better future, but on the side of the crew of "Red Cliff", Wu Yu's face is dark.
Since he was "kicked back" by Hollywood, he has been looking for an opportunity, wanting to let that group of gringos see what it means to be middle-aged and poor.
And "Red Cliff" is a turnaround battle he is about to fight!
He wanted to let the group of gringos know that he Wu Yu was not Jiang Lang's talent, and the failure of "Wind Whisperer" was not his reason at all.
At the very least, the box office results he created in North America and around the world as a Chinese cannot be faked.
However...
In 05, Chen Fei was born with the Golden Bear Award and rushed directly to Hollywood.
A "Rise of the Planet of the Apes", a "Iron Man", coupled with the identity of the chief content executive of Walton Pictures and Marvel Studios, directly pressed Wu Yu's pride to the ground and rubbed it hard.
"Mission Impossible 2" has a global box office of 546 million, which is the best result created by a Chinese director in the world before 06.
But Chen Fei has refreshed this list twice!
"Rise of the Planet of the Apes" 750 million US dollars!
"Iron Man" 870 million US dollars!
After learning of this situation, Wu Yu once expressed his unacceptability.
If he wants to turn over now, he must at least top the global box office of "Red Cliff" to more than 870 million US dollars before he can regain the title of "No. 1 Chinese Director" again.
But can this pedal be done?
"Click! Hu Jun, what's the matter with you? Play Zhao Yun like a girl! How do you mainland actors learn to act? ”
On the set, listening to Wu Yu's scolding, Hu Jun, who was holding a spear, frowned.
I?
?
"You're not blind when you're riding a horse, aren't you?"
Hu Jun scolded secretly in his heart, and almost couldn't help but face Wu Yu seven in and seven out.
He secretly vowed that after the filming of "Red Cliff" was completed, he would never cooperate with the director on Hong Kong Island.
What kind of pen are you stepping on?
And Lin Zhiling on the side was also full of suspicion.
I'm afraid that Director Wu has something wrong with his brain? Such a manly "Zhao Yun", you actually say that he looks like a girl?
…
The news that "The Mummy 3" will be filmed in the Terracotta Warriors and Horses, and that Yang Ziqiong defeated Gong Li and Zhang Ziyi to get the role of "Female Wise Man" reached Chen Fei's ears at the same time.
"Shoot the First Emperor as a mummy? Can this horse pass the trial? Did that group of people have tumors in their brains? ”
In the crew, Chen Daoming lost his temper rarely, and it was obvious that he couldn't stand this kind of operation.
"Attract foreign investment."
Chen Fei only used four simple words to directly extinguish the anger of a bunch of people.
"When will we actually get back on our feet?" Chen Daoming was very aggrieved.
"Self-strength is really strong!"
Chen Fei replied lightly, and then shouted at everyone to continue filming.
Cultural self-confidence takes time to improve, but according to the current situation, it is clear that this condition is not available in China.
It is not enough for Chen Fei to speed up the pace on his own.
The crew of "2012" sent an email.
The North American box office was $230 million.
The total global box office is $654 million.
On the domestic side, according to the news released by China Film, "2012" earned 300 million yuan after a one-month release, directly defeating imported films such as "Iron Man" and "Spider-Man 3", maintaining a unique box office trend.
Obviously, the June schedule has also been dominated by Hollywood blockbusters...
But this situation is actually normal, after all, there are many film and television companies in the mainland that have participated in the investment of "2012", so in terms of film scheduling, the Film Bureau did not deliberately remove the card at all.
It is precisely because of this that this group of people in the circle has completely understood.
Blockbusters are really earned!
Hollywood movies are really treadmilling!
didn't even do publicity in advance, and directly rushed to 300 million yuan, almost breaking through the data of "Chinese Partner"!
There were a few leaders in the film bureau whose legs were shaking.
They don't dare to imagine how much domestic films will have to be suppressed if the number of imported Hollywood films is completely liberalized?
I'm afraid that in addition to Feiyue Film and Television, other film companies have no chance to stop it at all!
In fact, for this kind of thing, Chen Fei completely expressed his joy to see it.
Let them see the real "disaster", which is also conducive to the development of the domestic film and television industry, after all, there will be motivation only if there is oppression.
"Director Chen, quick, borrow your mobile phone, I'll vote."
"Huh?"
A shout hooked Chen Fei's thoughts back.
Some curiously, he handed over the phone, and watching Jing Tian operate, Chen Fei suddenly wondered.
"Who are you voting for?"
"Wake up!"
"The fast man's one?"
"Yes, yes, it's him, he and I are fellow countrymen, and he is the champion of the West Press Division!"
Looking at Jing Tian with an excited face, Chen Fei silently took out another mobile phone from his pocket, and then voted for Chen Chusheng without hesitation.
Comparatively, he prefers this.
Cold, Zhou Yang muttered in a low voice on the side: "I actually like Zhang Yi more." ”
Liu Yifei's gossip soul is burning, "I heard that Zhang Yi and that hostess ......"
"Be careful with what you say and do!"
Seeing that Chen Fei's face was wrong, Liu Yifei pursed her lips and hurriedly shut up.
There are too many people in the crew, and if one of the big mouths gets out, she will have to get into a lot of trouble.
The filming of the last stage of "Mulan" was not easy, the war scenes between Rouran and the Northern Wei Dynasty were very frequent, and in order to pursue the perfection of the shot, each big scene always had to be tested many times to succeed.
The general played by Jiao Enjun is indeed very good, and his every move shows the demeanor of a general!
It's a pity, no matter how good the filming is, it can't make up for the family's shortcomings.
His daughter is really not a fuel-efficient lamp, the key is not to know how to be grateful!
The promotion of "Thief's House" has been very hot recently, and with the popularity of "Twilight" and the Palme d'Or, fans are looking forward to this film.
Box office pre-sales are over.
Shanghai Film and Pan Asia sold a total of 20 million yuan at the box office, which also means that it can have such a high box office data just on the first day!
And this is only the minimum data, because most of the other theaters have not started pre-sale activities, but they will definitely not drop the chain in terms of film scheduling.
"Ip Man 2" and "Eavesdropping 2" are both lining up in the back, and they have also been busy with publicity recently.
On this day, after the publicity ended, Zhou Xun, Wang Zhiwen, Wan Qian, and Zhu Zhu came to the crew of "Mulan" to visit the class.
Chen Fei was quite happy, but what he didn't expect was that these people brought him uncomfortable news.
Lin Daiyu is gone after all...
He had only been a monk for three months and was unwilling to undergo chemotherapy.
In a world without Teacher Xu, no one can persuade her after all.
Zhou Xun is famous for daring to say and do, and scolded: "Those people are really cheap, they have been scolding on the Internet before, but now that they know that people are gone, they start to mourn again." ”
Chen Fei's expression was gloomy, this horse was all a steamed bun that ate human blood, and sooner or later he would be retributed.
But the fact that the actor is too deep into the play is also a problem.
The training and filming of a drama lasted for several years, and the actor had to bring in the character itself, which was a kind of alternative "bullying".
The old actors are better, but those ignorant young actors will definitely not be able to get out for a while.
Coupled with physical reasons, it will inevitably cause regrets!
Chen Fei suddenly thought of the actor who played the clown abroad, as well as Jim Carrey, most of them were too deep in the play, so it led to depression and withdrawn personalities.
Open the portal, and the Internet is full of mourning.
But how many people are genuine?
…
Marvel sent an email saying that ILM had agreed to cooperate in the production of Game of Thrones.
Originally, Chen Fei was going to let the team of Volton Pictures go over, but because the animation studio was too busy, he simply transferred the special effects side.
The studio is constantly recruiting, bringing the old with the new, and working hard to expand.
There are also sci-fi masterpieces such as "Thor" and "Captain America" in the follow-up, and some of them have job opportunities, but now I am afraid that they will not be able to keep up, and they will not worry about having no work at all.
Natasha called and asked when Chen Fei would start preparing for "Rise of the Planet of the Apes 2".
"You help me find a director, and I will provide the script for the follow-up sequel, be the producer, and let others shoot it."
On the other end of the phone, Natasha was surprised, "Huh? Aren't you ready to do it yourself? ”
"Nope." Chen Fei shook his head and refused: "Don't say it's the follow-up of the rise of the planet of the apes, even if it's the follow-up of Iron Man, I will find other directors to shoot it." ”
"Why?"
"I like to create new works, I don't like to make sequels."
"Okay......"
Shrugging her shoulders a little helplessly, Natasha began to search for memories in her mind, trying to find a suitable director.
But at this time, Chen Fei suddenly said: "The production of Twilight's second and third parts should be more refined, and you can find a company that is far ahead in the industry in terms of special effects."
The cost can be stacked, but the picture has to be enlarged for me, I don't want to achieve the state of Harry Potter, but at least it can't be too bad. ”
Hollywood's top-notch blockbusters are all jointly participated by Duojia special effects companies, after all, everyone has their own strengths.
Although this will lead to an increase in production costs, the final effect on the screen will definitely be able to breathe the audience!
And judging from the box office data of Twilight's first part, it is also worth a higher investment from Walton Pictures.
Even though the Film Bureau is stuck in the number of films, the domestic box office in the first week still reached 40 million yuan.
As for foreign countries, it is even more exaggerated, three days after its release, it is about to exceed 100 million US dollars, and now a week has passed, and the box office has successfully exceeded 150 million US dollars.
At the Hollywood Movie Market in June, this figure was second only to "Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban."
As for 20th Century Fox's "Fantastic Four 2", it is completely pressed and beaten!
It can be seen that the box office results of the second and third parts will definitely not be too bad.
It's time to make additional investment!
…
Time will fade away, and mourning does not last long.
Lin Daiyu has always lived in the hearts of fans, and she has completely gotten rid of the abuse on the Internet, maybe she will go to a time and space where she can be happy.
The release of "Thief Family" is getting closer and closer.
The major portals have been almost full of news about this movie recently.
For the box office of the movie, Ren Zhonglun spared no effort and almost achieved the ultimate in publicity.
The light also made a lot of effort and took the initiative to invite the main creative team to appear on the show and carry out various publicity.
Even Chen Fei was interviewed in the middle of his busy schedule.
Wang Changtian arranged Xie Lan to the crew of "Mulan".
As soon as the heroic girl came to the scene, a bunch of people surrounded her to say hello, and Chen Fei saw Wu Jing's kid staring straight at others, as if he was going to pounce on and eat people.
"Oh yes, a bunch of color embryos."
Rolling his eyes, Chen Fei picked up the loudspeaker and drove the group of guys to training.
"Excuse me, didn't scare you, did I?"
"Nope."
Xie Lan shook his head and said with a smile that he didn't care, after all, he was born as a host, and his ability to control the scene and his psychological quality were still quite strong.
"If it's convenient for you, let's just start the interview?"
"Okay."
Chen Fei nodded, instructed Zhu Yawen to move two chairs over, and recorded the show in the open air.
In fact, he was quite curious about how Liu Yan and Chen Kaige dealt with the matter in the end, but after thinking about it, it was better not to gossip.
has the light to keep, and there is nothing that can be done about Chen Kaige if he wants to come to her.
After the interview, Xie Lan didn't stay in the crew for long, and left the set directly.
The movie is about to be released, and I still have to do editing, and I'm afraid I'll have to work overtime to get it done when I go back.
…
Saturday, July 14.
On the day of the release of "Thief Family", Chen Fei deliberately took a day off and led a group of people in the crew to watch the film.
Because there were a lot of people, he simply booked several screening halls.
Ren Zhonglun also wanted to hold the premiere, but was rejected by Chen Fei.
This kind of film containing suffering and pathos is not suitable for the kind of lively premiere, just log in to the theater and release it directly.
The audience's word-of-mouth will be the best publicity!
Before the film started, Liu Yifei asked with some curiosity: "What kind of movie is this?" ”
Several people around them turned their heads, waiting for Chen Fei to give them an answer.
"Full of love and warmth, but also contains indifference and cruelty."
With curiosity and doubt, everyone began to watch the feature film.
The story begins when the father and son pick up a little girl hiding on the balcony on the way home......
The 117-minute film is like a healing icing on the bitter core.
When Zhou Xun broke down and cried in the interrogation room, bursts of sobbing sounded in the theater.
And when the father and "son" played by Wang Zhiwen said goodbye, the kind of unrelenting fetters were entangled, giving people an unspeakable helplessness and depression!
Without a doubt, this is a movie that can resonate!
It deserves the recognition of the Palme d'Or.
On the 15th, the first-day box office of "Thief Family" was officially announced by Shanghai Film Group.
Because of the factor of early pre-sale, coupled with the support of other theaters in various film schedules and publicity, the box office on the first day directly blinded the eyes of countless insiders.
48.5 million RMB!
The Palme d'Or is terrifying!
