Chapter 547: I Mean...... If
When Changchun ushered in the first wave of cold air in 04, the filming of "No Thieves in the World" also came to an end.
From the beginning of the preparation of this movie, the attention has been extremely high.
China Film Group and Huayi Brothers have joined forces, and popular domestic stars such as Zhang Chu, Ge You, and Fan Bingbing co-starred.
Newspapers, the Internet, and various media platforms have not stopped reporting about this movie.
With such a high popularity, the benefits are naturally incalculable.
The advertising revenue alone has made the film have earned back all the investment before it is finished.
In the previous 03 years of "Mobile Phone", the total advertising revenue was 20 million, which had shocked the industry at that time.
Today, "No Thieves in the World" is even better, with a total income of 40 million, and in terms of patch advertising alone, one has been sold for 1.8 million, which is already a sky-high price in China.
And the investment in the whole drama is only 35 million, that is to say, before the movie is released, it has already returned to its capital as an investor.
Originally, 35 million included the follow-up publicity, but seeing that the advertising income was so high, after Han Sanye and Wang Zhongjun discussed, they used all the 35 million invested in the early stage to make it.
Feng Xiaogang has money in his hands, his requirements for production are more detailed, and the shooting is more exquisite, so that the actors can be tossed enough.
In fact, after getting acquainted with Feng Xiaogang, you will find that he is a very realm person, and his debut is not a popular commercial film at all, but a small-budget satirical comedy, sharp and sour, and the scale is very large.
At the beginning of "Chicken Feathers in a Place", Feng Xiaogang said: My works should be closer to my life experience and artistic pursuit, and also closer to the audience, and I will not feel cheesy and fat in my works.
This is not a cow, this is called the white pearl buried in the rice grains, and it is found that people have a very connotative connotation.
But when the Chinese New Year trilogy of "Party A and Party B", "Endless" and "See You or Leave" came out, maybe the form of expression was too der, maybe the market was too hungry, and somehow, Feng Xiaogang suddenly became a representative of domestic commercial films.
As a director with aspirations, can you bear this?
So in 2000, with a stroke of brain, she made a "Sigh" to show her artistic pursuit.
As a result, the audience didn't buy it at all, and made it clear that we don't like to watch this, if you are willing to shoot, you will play poor and cheap for me, and if you don't want to shoot, you will get out.
Is Feng Xiaogang willing to compromise?
was obviously unwilling, so he filmed "Big Shot" and "Mobile Phone" again, trying to combine business and art while being hypocritical.
can be so neither left nor right, not up or down, trying to please everyone, but being scolded by others.
Until I met the script of "No Thieves in the World", this guy completely corrected his posture, and decided to move closer to the market with low eyebrows.
Judging by the story structure, this story does have a lot of appealing points.
However, with a little attention, you can find that many of the details in it cannot withstand scrutiny and scrutiny.
To put it simply, it's a lack of logic.
For example, in one of the episodes, Uncle Li's small gang created a riot by setting fire to steal Silly Gen'er's money.
Afterwards, the policeman said that when he put out the fire, he had already exchanged the money for the dead currency.
But where did he get the stygian coins, a normal person, idle and carrying a pack of stygian coins to dry chicken feathers?
What's more, it's okay to go out with the dark coin, the funniest thing is the amount, 60,000 yuan!
Who doesn't know that my ghost circle in Greater China is inflationary like Zimbabwe, and it can't be burned hundreds of millions of dollars?
60,000 yuan is estimated to be unable to buy even a flatbread at the bottom, which is obviously fooling the ancestors.
Also, at the end of the story, when Uncle Li escaped, he was still thinking about stealing Silly Gen'er's money.
But he didn't know that the police had changed the money, and he didn't know that the police had put the money back in the stupid bag.
Could it be that Uncle Li installed positioning on the money in advance?
There are also two stupid robbers who got into the car to rob, and the story says that these two people were found by the second child, and they planned to kill Uncle Li and usurp the throne.
It's amazing, where did he find someone who had a shotgun and an axe.
Well, maybe it was premeditated, and people found it in advance, but how did the weapon pass the security check?
I really think that China's security force is useless.
Even if you take 10,000 steps back, these can be reasonable.
But there is another one that is resolutely unbearable, and that is the train.
In the script, it is written about the green car, as a homesickness enthusiast who has contributed 50 tickets to China's railways a few years ago.
Zhang Chu has a deep understanding of trains.
The so-called green train, it should be regarded as the worst train in China!
Zhang Chu and other big stars can only sit in a soft sleeper when they go out, and they have never seen such a luxurious box, and what is even more hanging, there is a bar in this train.
In short, this script is really full of loopholes in the details, and even Feng Xiaogang himself admits that he can't come back at all, so he can only shoot down.
Hope that the audience will not be more serious, or the collective lack of common sense.
Otherwise, you can only start from scratch and rewrite a new story, but the idea of "no thieves" still has to be wanted, so there is no way to do it.
At the beginning of November, the crew returned to the capital, and there was still one last scene left, Tang Wei was eating roast duck in the restaurant with a big belly.
At this time, the police came in, and the supporting role of Zhang Hanyu, who often appeared in Feng Xiaogang's movies, played the police car.
Ruan Dawei's friend in "Endless", and the choreographer in "Mobile Phone".
It is said that this guy used to do dubbing, and he also did a voice replacement for Donald Duck.
When the police slowly told her that the male protagonist played by Zhang Chu did not come back, Tang Wei didn't cry at first, and he was very calm to roll up the roast duck and eat it, and he ate it without an image, he really took a big bite, and then began to cry slowly.
didn't say a word during the process, Zhang Hanyu on the other side smoked a cigarette and said that his daughter-in-law was pregnant and eating like this.
"When the child grows up, tell him generously who his father is, and there is no shame."
After saying that, he got up and left.
Tang Wei was stunned for a long time, and then with tears in his eyes, he continued to roll up the roast duck and eat it until Feng Xiaogang shouted to stop.
No one spoke for half a day on the entire set, and it was quiet and scary.
In the end, Feng Xiaogang stood up and applauded, and the scene regained its vitality.
Zhang Chu walked over and stood behind Tang Wei, his hand on her shoulder.
Tang Wei was still sobbing softly, still unable to get out of the emotions of Wang Li's character.
Seeing her like this, others also experienced sadness.
When this scene ends, the whole play is finished.
After the finale banquet, everyone has to go their separate ways.
Zhang Chu has long been used to this kind of thing, even if it is the first time, he is not so emotional, but it is Tang Wei's first experience of finalization, and it is inevitable that he is a little emotional.
Bang Bang Bang ......
Wang Zhongjun clapped his hands and walked in from outside, looking high-spirited.
This drama is the main investment of Huayi, and it has already made a lot of money before it is released.
Wang Zhongjun is complacent, and it is reasonable.
After coming in, he first said a kind word like a leader inspecting, and then he first found Feng Xiaogang to greet him, followed by Zhang Chu, Ge You, and even Wang Baoqiang and Tang Wei also gave a few words of encouragement.
In the end, it was announced that a grand banquet would be held at the Beijing Hotel to reward the big guys.
"Do you have to go?"
Tang Wei has not completely detached herself from the characters now, what she wants most is to get a good night's sleep.
"If you don't want to go, you can go."
Zhang Chu is also very annoyed by this kind of occasion, obviously it is a favor, so he has to make it like a business.
"Forget it, let's go!"
Tang Wei is the heroine, if she doesn't attend, she won't be able to get over her face.
The most important thing is that she doesn't want to cause trouble for Zhang Chu.
After all, Han Sanye will also come over today, and that person is the first person in the Chinese film industry.
After packing up, everyone set off to the Beijing Hotel.
When the main creator of the crew came in, there were already many people waiting in the banquet hall, all of whom were heroes from all walks of life in the circle.
Wang Zhongjun made such a big show, obviously he had other ideas.
The company has been unstable internally, Wang Jinghua's departure is basically a sure thing, he not only wants to stabilize the inside, but the most important thing is to show his muscles to the outside world.
No matter who Huayi leaves,
is still the leading boss of internal entertainment, and his status is unshakable.
It's a pity that this can only be his wishful thinking.
As long as any industry is still developing, it is impossible to be dominant forever.
Bona, Orange Sky, Light, etc., etc., the heroes who entered the market from all walks of life, who are not eyeing the position under Huayi's buttocks.
Maybe one day, Zhang Chu's Orange Studio will surpass them, who can say for sure.
After a period of greetings, Zhang Chu soon became the target of everyone at the finale banquet.
Everyone knows that the biggest selling point of Huayi's drama is Zhang Chu.
Without him, expect the appeal of others to receive so much sponsorship in the early stage?
40 million?
No!
This number is long gone.
The latest feedback from Pony is that so far, the sponsorship of "No Thieves in the World" has reached 70 million.
Before the movie was released, not only did the cost be recovered, but it also doubled the profit.
A star with such a strong ability to attract money, who is not hot, and who does not want to be recruited under his command.
"I'm so tired!"
Zhang Chu coped with it for a long time, and finally escaped by urine.
When I came out of the bathroom, I met Wang Jinghua, she is still a shareholder of Huayi, and on this occasion today, no matter what the reason, she has to show her face.
"Where is this! There are even more tiring things waiting for you in the future. ”
Zhang Chu smiled: "Sister Hua, don't scare me, I'm cowardly." ”
Are you timid?
Wang Jinghua glanced at Zhang Chu and didn't answer his words.
"What does the Zhou Yiwei you pushed me have to do with you?"
What's the relationship......
"You should be okay!"
As he spoke, Zhang Chu looked around.
"Where's Xiao Wei?"
Tang Wei was in the lounge at this time, and with her, there was Fan Bingbing.
"What the hell are you trying to say?"
Tang Wei looked at Fan Bingbing expressionlessly, feeling irritable.
I just wanted to come in and rest for a while, but I didn't expect Fan Bingbing to come in with him, and said a lot of inexplicable things to her.
Fan Bingbing was very calm: "I want to say...... If one day, you ...... I don't want him anymore, can you give him to me. ”
Belch?
Tang Wei looked at Fan Bingbing, and it took a long time to hold back a few words: "Neurotic!" ”
