Chapter 2827 Art and Commerce
The master of traditional Chinese medicine introduced by Zeng Zhen really has a skill.
He massaged and recuperated Qiao Guoer for a while, and Qiao Guoer immediately became more energetic, and her stomach was not so churning.
Seeing their daughter getting better all of a sudden, Qiao Sansi and his wife were very happy.
Parents' concern for their children is not bragging, it is purely caring for their children.
The master of traditional Chinese medicine taught the Japanese aunts several groups of commonly used massage and conditioning techniques, and gave them two prescriptions for nourishing food, and then left with the thank you gift from Xiao Qi.
This thank you gift is a string of chrysanthemum pear beads, which are most suitable for the elderly to wear. The master of traditional Chinese medicine knows that it is worth at least three to five hundred thousand yuan, and he is quite satisfied.
He is over seventy years old, and he still has to travel for a long time to recuperate pregnant women, and he deserves such a reward.
Although the master of traditional Chinese medicine has already recognized who Qiao Guoer is, a person of his level has already left the scope of gossip, just like treating ordinary patients, he still fulfills his duties.
Not long after, the Japanese aunts brought the rice porridge that had been boiled, and the queen sister wrinkled her pretty face after taking a sip, and acted like a baby with Xiao Qi, refusing to drink it.
It was Xiao Qi who coaxed her like a child, and then fed her mouthfuls by himself, Qiao Guoer finally finished the small bowl of rice porridge, and then she wanted to find her daughter.
During this period of time, she had severe pregnancy reactions, and she didn't dare to spend more time with her daughter, lest her daughter feel scared when she saw her mother like this.
Fortunately, there are so many people accompanying Qiao Shui'er, and she can see her mother every day, so the little girl will not be lonely.
Unfortunately, after Qiao Shui'er took a bath, he played games with the Japanese aunts in the room. After being tired for a long time, he was already sound asleep, so he had no time to take care of his mother.
Leading his slightly depressed wife out, Xiao Qi casually talked about the incident of Liu Chang and Jiang Wen coming here just now.
Unsurprisingly, Qiao Guoer's eyes lit up when he heard about Jiang Wen. This star with good acting skills and strong aura is definitely the idol of their younger generations.
If she hadn't been too busy on weekdays, and Jiang Wen was too low-key and running around, she would have visited Jiang Wen a long time ago.
"Oh. I've heard of the movie he made. It's said that people who have seen the sample say it's good. If it's screened here for a week, it should exceed 200 million yuan, right?" Qiao Guoer said casually.
"I think there will be a surprise for us." Xiao Qi laughed. "You see, Jiang Wen has been banned for several years, and he is holding back his energy to show everyone. And look at who is playing with him? Uncle Ge, Zhou Yingdi, plus himself , this is purely the drama of the three great movie stars! It’s no wonder it’s not good-looking!”
"Have you seen it? So confident?" Qiao Guoer asked strangely, "Or are you also a fan of Jiang Wen?"
"I quite like what he expressed in the movie." Xiao Qi said, "At the same time, I also have confidence in Uncle Ge and Best Actor Zhou."
"Well, if that's the case, I'll take a look at it when the time comes." Qiao Guoer made a decision.
"If you recover well, then go, otherwise stay at home. You don't mind trouble?" Xiao Qi patted his wife's pink face and said.
"You are at home all day long, and you are not afraid that I will get bored~~" Qiao Guo'er leaned on Xiao Qi's shoulder, "However, the lakes and mountains here are pretty good, and the summer is not too hot. Friends who have been here envy me It’s possible to find such a piece of land in the capital. Several of them have said they want to come and be my neighbor.”
Xiao Qi smiled noncommittally.
The reservoir here is the capital's water lifeline, at least before the south-to-north water diversion.
Now that the armed police have set up checkpoints to stand guard outside, where can anyone come in casually?
If it weren't for Tang Quan's relationship, if it weren't for the 50 million to open the way, it wouldn't be easy for Qiao Shui'er's child's account to be here.
"The company, this time we made a lot of money on "Avatar"!" Qiao Guoer suddenly became excited. "After the show was released last month, guess how much we earned? A total of 400 million US dollars! This is only the mainland China market. If Europe and the United States are added, it is at least 600 million US dollars! This is pure profit!"
"The fruit is really amazing!" Xiao Qi patted his wife's ass in good time.
"Hehe~~ It's because they earned so much money for us. I told them to transfer the share to them at the beginning of this month." Qiao Guoer said arrogantly, "To be honest, it's not us If you help me, how could the box office of "Avatar" break through 3.5 billion US dollars? But then again, Cameron is really amazing! I'm looking forward to the "Hunger Games" he filmed for us. I don't know if it will be available then Like Avatar. How about sweeping the box office around the world?"
"One book is definitely not as good as "Avatar". But the three books together should be comparable." Xiao Qi replied with a smile.
In the previous life, the box office of the first two "Hunger Games" exceeded more than one billion US dollars, and it is only natural that the trilogy will break through 2 billion US dollars.
This life is directed by Cameron himself. With his ability and the full support of Kiwi Cinemas, the trilogy of 3 billion is definitely safe. Whether it can surpass "Avatar" depends on luck and marketing methods.
With the full support of Kiwi Cinemas, unlike previous lives, "Avatar" appeared very strong in the first week, until the end of the release period of two or three months, it was the most dazzling star.
Therefore, it is 700 million more than the box office of nearly 2.8 billion US dollars in the previous life, which is not a big surprise.
This is the credit of the ace director and the ace special effects.
If Huaguo's movies have been obsessed with dramas and martial arts movies, they will never be able to catch up with Hollywood in the United States.
Because this is an era of advanced technology, and technology is a popular element in the world, that's why American hero blockbusters and visual blockbusters have resonated with audiences around the world.
In addition, those movies in Europe that they... oh, maybe they can't understand, they can't get out of their small area at all.
The same is true for Asian movies. The cultural restrictions of nationality and region make us lack too many opportunities to go out.
The Hunger Games is sure to be successful, and definitely more so than previous lives.
But apart from making money and adding a good start to Disney, Xiao Qi has nothing to be happy about.
Of course, as for how to develop Huaguo's own films, Xiao Qi will not worry about it. It is best to leave these matters to more professional people, such as Feng Baoya, such as Jiang Wen who came today.
What Kiwi Film and Television has to do is to do a good job of supporting the good movies made by these good directors, so that they have the opportunity to promote their own good movies and the culture of Huaguo all over the world.
As for those literary films, they can naturally be supported, but they are definitely not as strong as commercial films.
After all, literary and artistic movies do not meet the tastes of the public at all, and it is just a waste to take too many resources out.
Xiao Qi remembered that after the box office explosion in Huaguo in his previous life, some directors of literary films complained that the box office only cared about commercial films without any support for art, which suppressed their living space.
But this sounds a little funny.
Anyone who does not conform to this era will be eliminated.
Similarly, anyone who does not conform to the aesthetics of ordinary people will inevitably be eliminated.
This is the law of the market. It doesn’t mean that you shouted heartbreakingly, my movie is interesting, my movie has connotation, you must watch it, you must watch it... In this way, people will watch it.
After all, there are only a small number of people who have artistic pursuits. Watching movies is a pastime and fun for everyone, and it is far from that complicated.
It's the same as reading. Those in-depth books should be read by a small group of people. If they can read them thoroughly, they can serve as an example for everyone and lead the times like Mr. Wang Yangming.
If you have to read and understand all of this kind of book...it will drive most people crazy.
Ordinary people should do ordinary things and live an ordinary life. This is a law of human life.
So it’s the same with movies. If you just go to a dead end, you must ask the audience to go with you. If you don’t go to a dead end, you don’t support art, you don’t support life, you don’t pursue... People like this, usually everyone will educate them with extremely miserable box office, what? That is the reality of this society.
Besides, the Americans have taught us lessons a long time ago.
It’s not impossible to make good-looking literary and artistic films, and it’s not impossible to make literary and artistic films that everyone likes. The key depends on how you think, how to combine education with entertainment, and how to use skills to arouse people’s resonance.
For example, "Gone with the Wind", "Gone With the Wind"... and other movies, isn't that how they came out?
A good reputation at the box office is what should be pursued, right?
These are Xiao Qi's thoughts, but the queen sister seems to think a little differently.
Maybe it's because she has more literary and artistic cells, so she is much more tolerant of literary and artistic movies, and often shows them on three to five hundred screens, and many literary and artistic movies with poor attendance can be released for more than 3 weeks. This is absolutely not seen in other movie theaters.
Therefore, Qiao Guoer has a very good reputation in the circle of literary filmmakers. When everyone talks about Mr. Qiao, they are all full of praise.
It's no wonder that Qiao Guoer doesn't rely on your little money to live. Her family is rich, so it's okay to support literary and artistic movies.
It was also thanks to the theater owners like Qiao Guoer, otherwise the nagging of these people would have come out earlier than in the previous life.
But no matter how bitter they say, it can't change the fact that commercial films occupy the mainstream. If Huaguo's literary and artistic films want to really make good films, it will take a long time to explore! (~^~)
