Chapter 1056 Diary (2)

Monday, May 29, 2006.

I am very depressed today.

"Legend of the Bandit" seems to be a bit of a hit.

I'm a bit confused, the first week clearly exceeded 100 million, although it's not as good as "Once Upon a Time" and "The Matrix", but it's not low, it shows that everyone still likes me very much, why only the second week left Less than 40 million? There was even less than 20 million left last week?

Lao Hu told me that after three weeks and 19 days of release, the box office has already exceeded 170 million. Compared with the investment of 60 million for that movie, it can already declare a profit, and it should eventually exceed 200 million. But I am still very unhappy. The films I acted in, even the lowest-grossing "Once Upon a Time", had a domestic box office of more than 400 million or almost 500 million at that time. "Shaolin Temple" was directed by Zhao He. His level So many times, there are more than 500 million. Why is this "Legend of the Bandit" so low?

I also watched it online, and many people scolded it, saying that the film was mentally handicapped. I really don't understand, I think this film is very well done, many plots are to emphasize the strength of my hero, in many places I think it is better than Huang Feihong, my image looks also It's so powerful, why do people criticize it as bad? There are still many people who think that this film is one hundred "Great Wall" worse than "Shaolin Temple", they don't understand!

I'm a little sad.

That sentence that someone said, the audience is the most affectionate and forgetful, and it is true.

There were a lot of NGs during filming today, it was all my fault, Li Qian was right, no matter how big a star is, he must not play big names at work. Work hard.

Although "Legend of the Bandit" will definitely become the worst box office of all my works, it is still profitable after all, which is good news.

I should cheer up.

I still have "The Enemy of Thousands", and "Heroes of Heaven and Earth", which is currently being filmed.

By the way, Sister Lu's "Love in Seattle" is supposed to be released next month, but unfortunately I can't go to her premiere. Because Li Qian will definitely go.

well.

Today I went to see Sister Lu's new play, called "Love in Seattle". My play hasn't finished yet, so I asked for leave.

This play tells the story of a little wife who was pregnant with a child and was driven away by the older wife, and went to a city called Seattle in the United States to wait for delivery, and ended up falling in love with an old man there.

I've been to Seattle, which city doesn't seem too big, it's similar to what was shot in the movie, and it was raining when I went there. The male lead is played by Zhou Zhiyu. I didn't expect that he is actually not too old, but he plays the role very well. He really looks like a very old man with vicissitudes.

He Yingyu is still so beautiful.

I miss Miss Lu.

I know that yesterday in Shuntian Mansion, Li Qian organized a big premiere ceremony for her, but I couldn't make it, and I didn't dare to go.

I think this movie will not sell well because the little wife in the movie betrays her man. I don't think everyone will like it, anyway, I don't like it.

I don't understand why Sister Lu always likes to make this kind of films.

But I wish her the best of luck with this movie.

I wanted to call her, but I didn't dare.

Alas, I am so incompetent! It bothers me so much!

I asked Lao Hu, and Lao Hu said that "Love in Seattle" had a box office of more than 140 million in the first week, which is very high. I am very happy for Miss Lu. But I don't understand why the box office of a film like this is higher than that of "Legend of the Bandit"? Could it be that Zhou Zhiyu and He Yingyu's appeal is greater than mine? Its first week is actually higher than me.

I don't know who bought the tickets, but there are so many people who like to watch this kind of story about a woman betraying her husband. I remember in the movie that she was still pregnant with her man's child!

I'm starting to hate He Yingyu a little bit.

But let's bless her. After all, we have worked together. Although she is a bit stupid, she is actually quite nice to others. We had a great time working together.

By the way, she is Li Qian's woman, I'm sure it is!

I remember when I was filming The Matrix, she always liked to go over to talk to Li Qian. She was wearing a leather jacket at that time, and she even ran to Li Qian to shake it.

In fact, she is also quite coquettish.

This drama is about to wrap up. In fact, I have been in a good mood for the past few days, and the filming went smoothly, but I woke up this morning and received a text message from Lao Hu, and then I was not in a good mood.

The old nonsense said, "Love in Seattle" box office this week exceeded 100 million again, a little over 100 million, I can't remember how much, anyway, it has exceeded 100 million for two consecutive weeks. I called Lao Hu to ask about it, and he said that this movie has a pretty good reputation. According to normal forecasts, it should not be a big problem to exceed 400 million by the time it is offline, and there is hope for 500 million. It may not be as good as "Autumn Fairy Tale", but it is definitely a big hit.

I don't understand why everyone likes this, maybe it's all women who buy tickets? Only women like to read this kind of story? Anyway, I don't like it. I bought that ticket purely to support Sister Lu.

But my "Legend of the Bandit" was only 192 million when it went offline, and it didn't break 200 million.

By the way, I heard someone listening to Li Qian's foreign song on the set today. Recently, I have heard how many people are listening to his two songs. It was as if everyone had become foreigners overnight. In fact, in comparison, I prefer the song "Blue and White Porcelain".

Alas, things haven't been going well recently, and English has fallen again. You have to work hard, Zhou Baoshan!

It's finally finished!

I haven't been willing to be idle for the past two years. I have earned a lot of money, but I am really tired. I should give myself a month off and rest, I'm so tired.

Today I had a drink, the crew wrapped up, and Lao Hu also came over.

Of course, no one dared to tease me, the crew is like this, it’s always like this, whoever has the big wrists is the best, they come to toast and do it directly, I just touch my lips to save face.

Of course, I am usually very kind to them, even though they are all small actors, small stage managers and so on. But my elder brother taught me to be kind to others and not to put on airs.

He never puts on airs with anyone, senior brother is smart, he won't lie to me.

After drinking and returning to the room, Lao Hu told me that he had already talked with Zong Chengze. They agreed to give me 15 million, but they would not agree to it, but they said they could give me 5% of the box office share. . As long as my studio is attached to the past, they also allow me to participate in the investment.

But I haven't decided whether to invest or not. I always feel that the investment is inaccurate, and Liu Yan lost too badly. But Lao Hu always persuaded me. This guy just wants to trick me into throwing money away. If I earn more, he will share more.

By the way, the old nonsense, Zong Chengze agreed. If I am affiliated with the past and accept the show in the future, Dongfang Media will not charge me a commission. That is to say, I can be completely independent and earn as much as I can. Don't have to draw blood!

I will go back tomorrow! Return to Shuntian Mansion!

By the way, the box office of "Love in Seattle" finally dropped by 100 million last week, only about 70 million, but the total box office has already reached 320 million, which is still better than "Legend of the Bandit".

But next week, my "Enemy of Ten Thousand Enemies" will be released!

Come on Zhou Baoshan, kill them!

What Li Qian, he is going to die!

…………

Wednesday, July 19, 2006.

Today "The Enemy of Ten Thousand Enemy" was released, I am so happy! Many people came to support me, and I drank a lot of wine in the evening, so I won’t write much today. Hope it sells well!

I want to prove that even if I, Zhou Baoshan, left Minghu Culture, I would still make a hit!

…………

Friday, July 21, 2006.

The box office doesn't seem to be very good, and Lao Hu said that the online reviews are not very good, so I don't dare to watch it.

Oh, what's going on?

But today is Friday, and the next three days of the weekend should be the best time for the box office. Don't worry, I shouldn't worry, we have to wait and see.

By the way, I chatted with my brother during the premiere, and I heard that Sister Lu has also gone to the United States, saying that she is also going to make a Hollywood film, and Minghu Culture is cooperating with Columbia. Now she and Sun Yuting have both gone to the United States to direct international blockbusters, which is amazing.

I'm going to Hollywood too! ! !

…………

Monday, July 31, 2006.

Starting tomorrow, I will no longer be a member of Minghu Culture.

But I'm a little bit unhappy. I have been looking forward to this day all the time, and I think that when this day really comes, I will definitely feel relaxed and happy.

But now, I'm a little bit unhappy.

I really can't be happy.

The results of the second week came out, and "The Enemy of Thousands of People" rushed.

Paralyzed, how could he pounce!

I really don't understand!

Is that bad Hollywood movie really much better than my "Enemy"? Isn't it just aliens? In the future, I will go to Hollywood to make alien movies!

Alas, it was over 100 million in the first week. Although it was barely over 100 million, at least the data was not ugly, but in the second week, there were only 30 million left. Is it true that I chose the wrong movie?

Why can't I make a bad film as long as it's not a Minghu Culture film?

It’s not right, I think my photos are pretty good, but everyone just says it’s not good-looking!

I am so distressed.

I remember that before the filming of "Shaolin Temple" started, I wanted to take "Legend of the Bandits" at that time, and they gave 15 million yuan. As long as I took it, I would be the most expensive in China, and I needed this! In conversion, it is about 7.5 million US dollars, which is higher than the salary offered to me by those companies in Hollywood! For "Shaolin Temple", Minghu Culture only gave me 8 million. I think they are very stingy!

But Lord Qian called me personally and said that he felt that there was something wrong with the script of this drama, so it was best not to accept it. I didn't dare not to agree at the time, so I agreed, but they kept looking for me and they were very sincere. Later, I couldn't hold back, and it happened that Lord Qian was suppressing me, so I insisted on accepting it. Master Qian should be very upset.

The evaluation given by the company's brokerage department said that it is not recommended that I accept "Men Enemies" and "Heaven and Earth Heroes". Alas, now I just hope that "Heaven and Earth Heroes" will not rush!

Looking at the current situation, the box office of "The Enemy" is probably not as good as "Legend of the Bandit"!

"Legend of the Bandits" still has nearly 200 million yuan anyway, and it should be profitable at the box office alone, but for "The Enemy", I estimate that 180 million will reach the top.

I'm really distressed now, I don't know what to do, and I don't know why!

…………

Wednesday, August 2, 2006.

I'm back in Shuntian Mansion, and the promotion of "The Enemy of Thousands" is over.

The box office is rotten, and I don't think there is any need to continue to promote it.

I read a lot of comments on the Internet, and everyone scolded me. But they don't know how hard I work. A bunch of Sabbies know how to spray dung all over their mouths!

In fact, this movie should have been very good. I also worked very hard in acting, and the investor was very generous. I guess the director is not good enough!

Alas, thinking about it now, Li Qian is really awesome, he can make a hit! His judgment is also accurate, he said that "Legend of the Bandit" is not very good, if it is filmed, it may drag down my reputation, and he is right!

well.

In fact, I hesitated yesterday. I wanted to go back to Minghu Culture and ask Li Qian to apologize.

Anyway, it's just an apology, it's nothing, he picked me up with one hand, everyone in the industry said that this is the status of a mentor, I bowed to him, there is no shame in it.

If I can continue to stay in Minghu Culture, I will definitely be able to make another hit!

But I really don't want to go back and be sucked by the company, and I don't want to have Li Qian on top of me forever, don't let me do this or that!

I still decided to be independent!

…………

Saturday, August 5, 2006.

I decided to start "Zhou Baoshan Film and Television Culture Communication Studio"! ! !

The conditions that everyone negotiated remain the same, I am completely free and independent, that's it, I will tell the other side tomorrow, sign it, don't hesitate!

Li Qian will not always be right!

Du Weiyun is also a great director. Although he said that the performance of the last film was not too good, it is said that he did not lose money. Zhou Yanghua told me personally today! He's a big boss, so he won't lie! Therefore, Du Weiyun is not much worse than Li Qian. Together, the two of us will definitely be a big hit! big sale!

I'm fed up with the days when the last one is just another one. I want to join forces with Du Weiyun to make this martial arts!

He is the best martial arts director in the country, and I am the most popular martial arts superstar in the country. With the two of us joining forces, the strength of Dongfang Media is no worse than that of Minghu Culture. We will definitely do it.

And I have already thought about it, I think the old nonsense makes sense!

I get paid for filming, even if a film earns 20 million US dollars, I'm still a coolie! I don't want to be a coolie. I also want to let money make money and capital to generate profits like the old nonsense. I can't just rely on myself to make money by filming movies every day.

Those big stars in Hollywood also start their own film companies to participate in the investment, and I should do the same!

Du Weiyun plans to invest 180 million in this "Jin Yi Wei", and I want to invest 30 million, plus I have a 5% box office share in my film salary, I can earn more!

And Zhou Yanghua said that they also have the ability to distribute in North America, and this "Jinyiwei" will definitely be released in North America by then!

At that time, "Legend of the Bandit" and "The Enemy" also boasted that they would be released in North America, but when the time came, North America saw that the domestic box office was not good, and they only arranged seven theaters for "Legend of the Bandit". Show, what a shame!

I guess "Heaven and Earth Heroes" is also up for grabs!

But "Jin Yi Wei" probably won't be able to!

The investment in this film is much larger than those of the other three. Du Weiyun is a big director, and Oriental Media is also very strong. They have a deep cooperation relationship with Paramount and 20th Century Fox. They will definitely be able to operate it and release it in the United States.

Sign the contract tomorrow!

Come on, Zhou Baoshan!

…………

Wednesday, August 9, 2006.

Today is the release of "A Chinese Ghost Story". I know that Jin Han is a very good director. He is the second director of Minghu Culture who can make movies, second only to Lord Qian.

He sent me an invitation, but I didn't have the nerve to go.

I have already signed a contract with Dongfang Media. Although I haven't announced it yet, I will always say it in the future. I have betrayed Minghu Culture, and they will definitely hate me.

No, I didn't renew my contract when it expired, I'm not betraying!

If you don't go, you don't go, it's no big deal!
