340 Don't have expectations for the box office?
They did come, but first to the dressing room. Everyone also met the long-lost crew creator here, what is the blame for this, he didn't organize a game in advance for everyone to meet, so he had to meet at this premiere scene.
"Director He." Wu Jing was the first to come in.
"Brother Jing, long time no see." He Fang hugged Wu Jing and patted each other's shoulders vigorously.
"Director He." Pan Zhilin jumped the second one, although she was bouncing, but there was still resentment in her eyes when she looked at him, like the dark eyes of a rice field that had been dry and cracked for a long time burst out of the cracks.
"Zhilin, long time no see." He Fang also gave Pan Zhilin a polite hug.
If it is Fan Bingbing or Liu Yan, this hug must be decent, but Pan Zhilin is different, she is young, jumpy, and a little in love...... So...... It was originally a simple hug, but it became a scratch and a clamp.
He Fang really admires this little girl, she is really getting bolder, in He Fang's previous cognition, she is a pure, lovely, honest and well-behaved person, how can she ......
He Fang suddenly had a warning in his eyes, but Pan Zhilin replied with a provocation in his eyes, which really made He Fang want to immediately pull her down and whip her back and forth, and he really couldn't clean it up?
But now this occasion ...... Leave her alone for now.
"Director, long time no see." Next was Zhang Hanyu, and the two shook hands without hugging.
……
"Director He, you are really awesome, "X-Men: Future Past" really surpassed "Avengers" for a month after its release, $1.596 billion, it's a pity, almost $1.6 billion."
"It's okay, North America is still postponing its release, and it will hit the $1.6 billion hurdle."
"Director He, the media are reporting that it was because of Disney's all-out suppression that it was pressed below $1.6 billion, is it true?"
"Hehe, people don't admit it, and I don't know."
…… After everyone chatted about "X-Men", they came back to "Operation Mekong".
"Director, can you give everyone a prediction, how much box office will "Operation Mekong" get?" Wu Jing asked first.
"It's hard to say, it is estimated that some foreign theaters will suppress the film or box office, so everyone must be psychologically prepared." After asking the hairstylist to touch his hair, he waved it and refused to let him do it.
Then he got up and walked to the couch next to him, took out his cigarette, lit it.
"Why?" The crowd was puzzled.
"Heh, in China, have you seen a few modern military-oriented movies other than Hollywood? Why is this happening? He Fang asked rhetorically.
Then everyone was stunned, and pondered carefully, so why?
Everyone looked at where he was, and he took a puff of cigarette without hurrying, flicked the cigarette ash, and then set up Erlang's legs.
"This kind of military-oriented movie is actually a genre that promotes a country's military strength, why can we only see American military films in movies? Is it that other countries can't shoot it?
Maybe it can't be filmed, after all, many countries don't have military equipment like the United States, and the weapons are not dazzling enough for fear of being laughed at. However, advanced weapons are not a reason not to make such films, so what is the reason why many countries do not make such films? Or is it that these kinds of movies are made but the global audience can't see them? ”
He Fang asked rhetorically.
"Because the United States doesn't allow it?" Wu Jing asked cautiously.
He Fang smiled and nodded.
"I heard Director Feng and Mr. Wang say that the United States controls the global publicity, and if they don't publicize it, your movie won't be released globally." Zhang Hanyu said.
He Fang raised his eyebrows and took a puff of his cigarette.
"You're both right, how can the United States allow countries other than the United States to promote their military films? So, while we have this movie is released worldwide. However, don't expect too much from the global box office. ”
He Fang's words made the people present suddenly feel a little depressed, after all, everyone is an actor and they are going for a high box office, but the result is that there will be no high box office, how can they be in a good mood?
Everyone's mood was low What could be imagined, but he waved his hand.
"Don't be discouraged, that's not a bad thing. Others want to suppress us, it only shows one point, what we do makes them feel scared and threatened, isn't this more meaningful than taking a high box office?
At this stage of ours, making money is secondary, and being able to do something that makes the opponent afraid of nervousness is the challenge and the fun. He Fang comforted everyone.
"Director He is right, we make millions and tens of millions every year, what is not satisfied? It's also an honor to do something that makes your opponent nervous and scared. Wu Jing immediately agreed.
"I think what Director He said makes sense, what is not at the box office is secondary, and it is interesting to be able to make movies with Director He and challenge the opponent together." Zhang Hanyu said.
"I'm just a small supporting role, I can just brush my face in Director He's movie, how can I think so much." Pan Zhilin said with a smile.
As a result, as soon as she finished speaking, everyone looked at Pan Zhilin with a 'understandable' look, she was stunned for a moment, could it be that what she said was wrong?
He Fang smiled.
"Since everyone is so supportive, let's play the project next time." He Fang smiled.
"Haha, then I have to prepare in advance to show off my skills." Zhang Hanyu said with a smile.
"Ahem, don't be too happy, I'm going to make an action column, I guess it's all Americans don't like it." He Fang said.
"Oh...... Also...... Okay, nothing...... It's fun to fight with people, and it's fun to fight with the sky......"
……
Everyone chatted like this, but He Fang suddenly received a text message, and at first glance, the name was Pan Zhilin's.
He Fang glanced at her who was honestly putting on makeup, and he opened the text message and looked at it.
Pan Zhilin: "It's been a long time since it's rained, and I heard that the fish ponds are all dry...... ”
"Poof" He Fang couldn't help but laugh, and then everyone looked at him.
"Ha, that, I saw a funny news, it's okay, it's okay."
Everyone bowed and continued to put on makeup.
He Fang began to text back: "The rainy clouds have not drifted back in North America, so there is no way." Don't have the self-reliance to save the disaster by yourself? ”
Pan Zhilin: "...... that will stain the newly made nails"
Where: "So what to do?" ”
Pan Zhilin: "It's cloudy today, there is an east wind, and the clouds that will rain in North America should drift back." Do you want to sneak a little rain at night? ”
He Fang: "Will you be too anxious about the rain tonight, the clouds have just drifted over, and you have to socialize with the thunder gong, air pressure, and the sun." ”
Pan Zhilin: "That's ...... don't matter"
Where: "What's the matter?" Still want to be coquettish? ”
Pan Zhilin: "The fish pond is not equipped with guardrails, or it will ......"
Where: "......"
Nima, this woman has advanced, where did she learn these things? It really provoked He Fang's blood to surge, and he could only ......
Just when he didn't know what to do......
Pan Zhilin: "I know there is a safe lounge in the synagogue, I will go over ...... now"
Where: "......"
……
At half past five in the afternoon, the premiere of "Operation Mekong" is about to begin, and the crew is in high spirits.
Wu Jing is upright, but it is different if he has practiced in the army.
Zhang Hanyu is full of oppression......
Pan Zhilin is like a freshly moistened flower, vibrant, ruddy, and excited......
He Fang was full of momentum, but he carefully pulled the collar, and if you zoomed in on the lens, there was a row of tooth marks hidden in the seam of the clothes......
……
"Friends from the audience in front of the TV, friends from the media at the scene, friends from the audience, welcome to watch the "Premiere" program, today we came to the premiere of "Operation Mekong......
…… The following is the main creator of "Operation Mekong", they are ......" Jingwei skillfully doing his work.
Where did they walk on the red carpet, interact with everyone for a while, pose for photos, take photos with fans, and sign autographs......
In the end, he was pulled by Jingwei to introduce the situation of a movie, this ...... The introduction is okay, but it's a bit formatted, like the words in the slogan.
Of course, some young people don't like to hear this, they think it's all false and empty, and it's very good, so they want to listen to the real and see the real.
For example, how much money can I make, what income do I have, and what problems have I solved......
But in fact, these things are looked at in two layers, and the first is to see the so-called formatted things, which are not for the ordinary people at all, and the ordinary people do not understand. The Chinese scholar class has a language of their own, which is like the audiovisual language of an art film, and the audience seems to be able to understand it when they see it, but they don't understand anything.
In the same way, the manuscript materials of the scholar class are known to the general public, but they are in the clouds. It's normal for ordinary people to scold this, just like ordinary people scold literary films, you make ordinary people can't understand it, who do they scold if they don't scold you?
But in fact, it is not that people are unwilling to let the people understand, but that the more people who know, the more they learn to make information two-dimensional or three-dimensional, which makes ordinary people in one-dimensional thinking blind, and they can't understand it. But you can't stop the two-dimensional or three-dimensional information just to make it understandable to ordinary people, right? Doesn't that stop the advancement of human thinking?
Some people may ask what is the two-dimensional or three-dimensional knowledge of information? Let's take the simplest example.
A word in English represents a meaning, which is called a one-dimensional language, and people can immediately get accurate information from this language.
However, this is not the case with Chinese characters, which are a two-dimensional or even three-dimensional language, and a Chinese character can represent one meaning, but at the same time it can also represent many meanings. For example, the word 'water' can represent a kind of material 'water', it can also represent a person's ability is not reliable, it can also represent the beautiful side of a woman, and it can also represent that some authors write things that are just bad money......
This is the reason why South Korea, Vietnam, and other countries that used to use Chinese characters abolished Chinese characters, because Chinese characters are too advanced for their people to understand, learn, or comprehend.
At the end of the Qing Dynasty and the beginning of the Republic of China, a group of experts felt that Chinese characters were too complicated, resulting in the people not being able to quickly educate them, so they vigorously promoted the abolition of Chinese characters and wanted to carry out pinyinization.
However, from the perspective of human development, the abolition of Chinese characters is a kind of regression of civilization, and the more information a character can contain, the more efficient it will be transmitted.
In the same way, the audiovisual language of art films is designed so that a film of only 120 minutes can convey a lot of information.
The so-called organ material documents also mean the same thing, conveying multiple messages in words that everyone can understand.
But it doesn't mean that ordinary people can't understand it, so they don't do practical things, right? That's wrong, right? It's like saying that the person who invented writing is wrong and stupid because you haven't read a book, can't read or read, and you have to scold him, right?
So you have to look at the second layer.
Every year, in order to protect the safety of people's lives and property and maintain social stability, many people really sacrifice themselves on the front line, and they sacrifice their lives, bodies, money, and family affection......
This second layer is really to show to ordinary people, and this is what the "Operation Mekong" movie is going to show. It can't be the previous kind of stereotyped police and gangster films, let alone commercial films like Hollywood.
How do you do it at the same time as politics and business? This is the biggest attraction of "Operation Mekong", and it is this point that He Fang is introducing, first formatting some politics, and then shouting commercial selling points.
"I believe you have also seen part of the content in the trailer, those advanced unmanned small tanks, helicopters, small unmanned reconnaissance and combat all-in-one aircraft, T5000 sniper rifles, Type 95 automatic rifles, AK-47 series submachine guns, M1911 pistols, and even desert eagles, individual night vision imaging helmets, ultra-long-range eavesdropping, palm-sized DJI micro drones...... Wait a minute.
These are all things that we will show in this movie, fans who love military affairs, this will be a feast for you to watch some domestic military weapons and equipment......"
"Wow, then fans are going to feast their eyes this time, is there anything else worth seeing besides weapons and equipment?" Jing Wei asked.
"Of course, the movie shows some military content such as jungle warfare, street fighting, and anti-terrorist operations. In addition to these, there is also the demeanor of our police force, as well as the heroic police comrades who are fighting on the front line and sacrificing themselves to protect the people......"
"Great, I can't wait to see the premiere of the movie...... What are your predictions for the box office? ”
"Box office, I don't predict it, this movie will definitely be able to reach a new high in China, but how high it will depend on the support of fans. As for foreign countries, it's hard to say. ”
