The domestic film market is growing at a rate of about 30% per year, experiencing an explosive period, and there is basically no off-season except for September and the two months after the year.

Qingming, May Day, Dragon Boat Festival, Mid-Autumn Festival, and the four small long holidays all make the film market less deserted between the Spring Festival and the summer.

Needless to say, the National Day file, plus the seven-day long holiday after the shift change, is also somewhat in line with the identity of Golden Week, which can be called the golden period.

However, although there are big-selling movies every year in the National Day file, in the past three years, the proportion of the annual box office of the National Day file has been declining year by year, and the growth rate cannot keep up with the growth of the general environment.

This is also the reason why there are only a few movies in this year's National Day file, and all of them are crowded into the New Year file and the Spring Festival file, after all, Li Qian has no movies released this year.

However, this year, "Beijing Meets Seattle" starring Tong Liya was released on the 28th and hit a box office of 570 million in ten days from October 7th to October 7th.

exceeded the 400 million of "The Great Cause of the Founding of the People's Republic of China", setting a box office record for the National Day.

This is completely the box office that can only be won in the summer and Chinese New Year files, and it has also driven this year's National Day file in one fell swoop.

At the same time, it also made the industry see clearly, it's not that the National Day file is not good, the key is to see what kind of movie.

However, after "Journey to the West" swept the Spring Festival file and "When Happiness Knocks on the Door" dominated the summer file, Future Pictures won the third important box office championship, which once again made the industry lose its voice.

A deep helplessness, an incomparably familiar feeling appeared in the hearts of the CEOs of major companies again, and gradually the feeling was a little numb.

Even if there is no Li Qian's movie, the movies he invests in alone can suppress and beat several major companies and make them breathless.

And in the next Chinese New Year, Future Pictures also has Teng Huatao's "Waiting for the Wind" and Xu Zheng's "Thai Embarrassment".

Two heavyweight movies were released in November and December, Teng Huatao's last film won nearly 700 million box office, Xu Zheng's "People in Embarrassment" only won 200 million box office, but the 200 million box office that year is not comparable to now.

Under the residual power of the National Day file, facing such two opponents, although it is still early before the release, they are all sad.

Berner released two Hong Kong films, Yu Dong simply didn't bother to look forward to the Chinese New Year, he had just finished financing, and he had one billion in cash, and now his energy is in the next two years, one billion is enough to make five or six blockbusters, and he can do a big deal.

Guangxian is also the guarantee of "The Four Famous Catches 2", and by the way, a big movie "The Voice" was released.

TV series, movies, and movies can all be remade, Wang Changtian thought that "The Voice" was also a phenomenal variety show last year, and a remake of a youth movie of the same name might be able to surprise him.

Wanda has "Police Story 2013", which is also an IP, "Police Story" IP, "Zodiac" is also a big hit, at least it proves that Cheng Long can still carry the box office.

However, the biggest attraction of the Lunar New Year stall is that Ma Xiaogang has regained his best comedy, and he is still partnered with Ge Wei.

Ma's comedy is back in the rivers and lakes, this man who has supported Huayang Media for ten years, Huang Zhongjun is much easier now, slightly better than Yu Dong.

What's more, "Waiting for the Wind" also has the investment of Huayang Media, and no matter what happens to this year's Chinese New Year, he will be one of the biggest winners.

Huang Zhongjun also had the leisure to make a cup of tea by himself, today is the day of Li Qian's new film development conference, he plans to see what kind of ghost film it is, it took ten months of preparation to start filming.

......

On the morning of the 8th, the much-anticipated Li Qian's new film "Rejuvenation" is finally about to start.

Ninghang City, Wulin Square CBD, not far from West Lake, Jiangsu and Zhejiang Hotel.

From time to time, reporters with long guns and short guns, as well as photographers with cameras on their shoulders, walked into the hotel.

They all have only one purpose, the large conference hall on the seventh floor, the Jiangsu and Zhejiang Hall, where Li Qian's new film will be launched.

Almost all the major media in the country, including print media, TV stations, and online media, were invited to the seventh floor and walked to the seventh floor, attracting the frequent sideways glances of other guests in the hotel, not knowing who had engaged in such a big battle.

And the reporters are also very excited, this time they have been waiting for Li Qian's new film for almost a year, and the rice in their hometown is about to harvest the third crop.

"It's been almost a year since "Truman's World" was released this time, and it is estimated that Li Qian will have to wait two years next time. A reporter sighed and said.

For film and television entertainment reporters, apart from all kinds of exciting revelations, there is nothing more newsworthy than Li Qian's new film.

Before, after the release of a movie, Li Qian prepared the next movie non-stop, seamless connection, and there was no need to rush.

As a result, this time, it's almost a year later.

A reporter next to him said, "I've made enough money, and I've earned enough fame, so I guess I don't have any motivation and pursuit." ”

Another reporter interjected, "His future film industry is valued at more than 10 billion, and the big boss with a net worth of 10 billion makes a movie for you to see, be content." ”

"That being said, I still miss that fast gunner Li Qian. ”

"It doesn't matter so much about him, but what I'm curious about is that the title of the film "Rejuvenation", could it be that the hero and heroine are immortal?"

"It's possible, Li Qian definitely won't make ordinary romance films, the previous "Truman's World" was a comedy, not a regular comedy. ”

"The protagonist of immortality, this is interesting, is it like "Myth", has lived for thousands of years?"

"Isn't there a war scene, Li Qian was exposed to a dry rest house a few times, several military museums, and Hu Jian's local TV station all posted news, which is the story of resisting rice and aiding Korea. ”

"It's still unpredictable, don't think about it, if you want to be able to keep up with Li Qian's brain, then just be a screenwriter. ”

"Also, anyway, it's definitely not right to guess and guess, Li Qian's brain hole has never disappointed. ”

......

At 10 o'clock in the morning, hundreds of reporters and photographers were in place on time in the Jiangsu and Zhejiang Hall of the large conference hall.

About half an hour, a leading female host of Jiangsu and Zhejiang Satellite TV came to host the press conference and introduce Li Qian's appearance.

In the midst of a burst of noise and "click", Li Qian took Chen Kun, Tong Liya, Gao Yuanyuan, Liu Mingtao, Duan Yihong, Zhang Yi and other actors into the venue.

However, to the surprise of all the reporters present, there was a strange thing mixed in the crowd.... No, a strange person.

Looking at the thin little flat head next to Li Qian, the reporters were full of question marks.

"What is Ma Qingyang here to join in?"

According to the doubts in my heart, I will ask again later, and listen to Li Qian's speech first.

"After more than a year, thank you for taking the time to attend the press conference of my new film "Rejuvenation". ”

After the annual customary opening remarks, Li Qian did not talk about the movie first, but introduced Ma Qingyang next to him.

"I think you must be curious why Ma Dong is here. ”

Nonsense!

The reporters were full of slander, and they were also very satisfied with Li Qian's "acquaintance", so they took the initiative to talk about it without waiting for them to ask.

Li Qian didn't sell Guan Zi, but he didn't say it explicitly, but made a gesture to Ma Qingyang and said with a smile, "Let's let Ma Dong tell everyone." ”

"Hello everyone. ”

Ma Qingyang didn't put up any show, and he didn't have any style, so he said hello unremarkably, but then he didn't say anything shocking.

"I'm standing here today as an actor, that is, an actor in the movie "Rejuvenation". ”

Speaking of actors, Ma Qingyang is still a little solemn, not like a joke.

This made the reporters even more confused, and some people couldn't help but speak, "Ma Dong, you mean that you will star in the movie "Rejuvenation"?"

"That's right. Ma Qingyang said with a smile.

Hiss!

I'll go!

These words were stunned, Rao is a well-informed reporter, and he never expected that Li Qian would invite Ma Qingyang to appear in the movie.

This is explosive news, what kind of person is Ma Qingyang!

"Director Li, what kind of movie is "Rejuvenation"?"

"What role does Ma Dong play in the movie?"

"Why does Ma Dong want to appear in Director Li's movie, I heard that you have always had a dream of being a singer, and you especially like Wang Fei's songs, do you also have a dream of being an actor?"

......

Before it was time to ask questions, the reporters scrambled to ask questions in a very unruly manner.

Chen Kun, Tong Liya and other actors seemed to be ignored by reporters, and the questions were all thrown to Li Qian and Ma Qingyang.

However, Chen Kun as the leading actor has no surprises, compared to Ma Qingyang's movies, he is nothing.

Tong Liya is also not short of attention, during the National Day holiday just past, she was the most popular actress at the moment, and she was heartbroken to deal with fans and reporters, wishing that she was transparent and could stop the meeting.

As for the other actors, not to mention.

"Personally, I like to watch movies, especially popular movies, if you want to keep up with the times, you have to know what is popular in the times, and it just so happened that Director Li invited me to play a role, so I came to be an actor. ”

Ma Qingyang answered the reporter's question head-on, but he still didn't take the lead, and then handed over the scene to Li Qian.

Li Qian didn't hide anything, although the movie "Rejuvenation" is very creative, what you really want to see is the content.

Even if you know what's going on, there won't be the slightest spoiler, after all, the audience knows that it is reverse growth at the beginning, unlike "Truman's World", where the truth is only found out in the middle and later stages.

So, Li Qian also said it bluntly rarely, he smiled, "Ma Dong starred in the movie in his true colors, playing himself when he was young." ”

Then, gesturing to the hotel staff, the curtain behind them was pulled open, revealing a huge display that lit up and a movie poster appeared in view.

On the poster, the faces of Chen Kun and Tong Liya, who look more mature, occupy one on each side, and there are only two faces against the pure black background.

However, each person has only half a face.

Li Qian pointed to this poster with only half of his face exposed, and asked with a smile, "Just like the title, "Rejuvenation" tells the love story between a male protagonist who grows in reverse and is born as an old man in his seventies and eighties and grows normally.

The body of the male protagonist is from an old man born at birth, slowly becoming a prime of life, a young man, a teenager, and the heroine are like two opposite roads on the same highway, one from the beginning to the end, and the other from the end to the beginning.

They will gradually get closer, and finally meet in the best golden age of their lives, but after that, they will gradually drift apart, and only half of their lives belong to each other.

Just like this poster, two lovers in the same frame, each with only half a face. ”

“......”

Except for Li Qian, Ma Yun, and the actors, everyone else was stunned.

Whether it is the hotel staff, the beautiful hosts sent by Jiangsu and Zhejiang Satellite TV, or the hundreds of reporters and photographers in the audience.

From the beginning when Li Qian said that the actor was growing in reverse, and he was born as an old man in his seventies and eighties, everyone looked like this.

Stood still, his eyes wide, not knowing what he was thinking.

It wasn't until Li Qian's voice fell, and after a few seconds, he realized what he had just heard.

Reverse growth?

Was he born an old man in his seventies or eighties?

What the hell is this?

For a while, the reporters who were still recalling this sentence in their minds didn't even know what to ask.

"Director Li, are you saying that he was born a seventy or eighty-year-old man?" a reporter asked in a frightened whisper.

It's so scary, how can anyone be born an old man.

Nezha's family is still an egg, a child, and he is a fairy, so there is nothing strange about it.

But you, who gave birth to an old man in your life, are you also a fairy?

"That's right, an old man. Li Qian repeated.

"But how did this come about?" some reporters still don't believe it.

"It's still the same size as a baby, but it looks like a terminal old man. Li Qian added.

That's pretty much it!

The reporters breathed a sigh of relief, if they really gave birth to an old man, they wouldn't scare his mother to death.

However, even so, as big as a baby, but the appearance is the same as that of an old man, it is estimated that he will be frightened, and the nurse will directly throw it away.

After a period of shock, the reporters also calmed down, and their hearts were surprised and happy.

Li Qian's new film, Ma Qingyang starred in person, and the title "Rejuvenation" turned out to be this meaning, the actor was born an old man, and life is backwards.

It's worth it!

Even a fool knows that these three points are enough to make the headlines of any point, and the news value is self-evident.

The more they thought about it, the more excited they became, and the reporters continued to wait with long guns and short guns, wanting to ask for more valuable information from Li Qian and Ma Qingyang.

However, Li Qian who should talk about it has almost talked about it, and he won't reveal much about the others.

Not to mention Ma Qingyang, in terms of such an art of speaking, he is definitely the top class, and there are a lot of them, and the reporter found that he couldn't ask anything.

Among the actors, except for Chen Kun, who wants to play such a "monster", and Tong Liya, who is the heroine, they were all ignored by reporters.

.......

A lively press conference lasted nearly an hour before it ended, and Li Qian and Ma Qingyang moved to another box next door, ready to have a meal.

Ma Qingyang also drank two drinks with Li Qian, and he was about to leave, after all, he was a big boss, and he was very busy.

Li Qian's shot of Ninghang this time was filmed in Ninghang, and it has only been less than 20 years since then, and some old buildings can still be found, so Ma Qingyang plans to act in person, not only to provide expression materials.

Acting by yourself, through makeup and post-production, it looks like it's okay to be around thirty years old.

Besides, Ma Qingyang looked old when he was young, and now he has money to maintain it quite well, and there is not much difference between 30 and 50 years old.
