Chapter 986 The Sky Has Fallen in the Film and Television Industry! LeTV’s Victims Alliance Makes a Brilliant Appearance!
Friday, November 25th, weather: sunny!
On Bona's side, as soon as Yu Dong came to the office, he found that his sky had "collapsed"!
The same is true for Huayi. When the two Wang brothers came to the office, they looked at Weibo and suddenly discovered that the sky in their house had "collapsed"!
"Produced by Feiyue Film and Television, Chen Fei serves as the director, screenwriter, and male lead, Liu Yifei serves as the female lead and producer, and Shu Chang, Jing Tian, Zhao Liying, Zhu Yawen, Luo Jin, Zhou Xun and others participate in the cast The song and dance themed movie "La La Land" was officially released in theaters early yesterday morning."
"According to statistics from theaters, on the first day of release of "La La Land", the comprehensive film scheduling rate was as high as 52.3%, the highest number of films scheduled in a single day..."
"Billy Lynn's Long Halftime Walk, a war-themed film co-produced by Bona and Sony and directed by Li Bian, has been officially removed from shelves today due to exhaustion of its box office potential. The film's total box office revenue was 133 million yuan. "
"The box office of "I'm Not Fan Jinlian" has dropped to 13.25 million, and the film scheduling rate has reached a new low. The overall film scheduling has dropped to 9%."
"Wanda Cinemas fully supports "La La Land". The film enjoys up to 50% of the comprehensive film schedule in Wanda Cinemas, which means: in more than 300 cinemas under Wanda Cinemas, all prime time slots are online..."

The sky is falling!
The sky has completely fallen!
Throughout the morning, most of the production companies in the entire film industry were disappointed!
The strong entry of "La La Land" directly removed several domestic movies, including "Billy Lynn's Midfielder" from the shelves.
Although some parts are still holding strong, the film schedule rate has been cut in half!
And under this situation, if nothing unexpected happens, the daily new box office will inevitably suffer a cliff-like drop.
But they were helpless and helpless, they could only watch this scene happen.
There are also many people who are still fantasizing that if the movie's reputation is bad and the reviews are terrible, then their movie may still be saved.
However, the moment Maoyan's ticket purchasing rating mechanism was lifted, looking at the rating of 9.4, the entire film and television industry seemed to be starved of oxygen!
There is no way, because there are too many, too many people gasping!
"No matter when, I always seem to be amazed by Director Chen's shots. The long shot at the beginning of "La La Land" is so cool! Is this showing off your skills?"
"It is no exaggeration to say that I was amazed by the actors' costumes. Although the clothes of each character are not so gorgeous, the colors and fabrics are very sophisticated, and the color of the clothes matches the background color of the scene and the color of the props. It’s so seamless and amazing!”
"We all believe that dreamy love must have a happy ending. However, what makes this story unconventional is that this relationship allows them to achieve each other."
"At the end of the movie, the heroine and her husband accidentally walked into a bar. A familiar melody sounded, and everything seemed to be back to the first time they met. This is so be! So beautiful! Woohoo!"
“At the beginning, I was moved by their feelings. I suddenly met you in the vast sea of people, and then we could dance together. I didn’t expect that the spark of love could ignite in adults!
The male protagonist was on a particularly beautiful bridge, with the pink sea, melodious melody, and the dancing old black couple. At that moment, he felt very, very beautiful; but at that time, I felt that the male and female protagonists both had dreams but were both poor. If in the end They can only hope for a reversal if they can be together.
Later, when the male protagonist heard the female protagonist calling, he felt that he was finished... Sure enough, in the end, the male protagonist went to that band, had a ridiculous concert, quarreled, failed, and separated.
Finally, I was thinking, have we all fallen in love with dreams and then married reality? "

At noon, Wang Zhonglei received a call from Taipei.
"How much is the box office of "La La Land" now?"
"Including pre-sales, the real-time box office has reached 130 million."
"Dududu..."
Feng Xiaogang hung up the phone without hesitation and went to lick his wounds silently alone.
Comparing it to "La La Land", he found that his "I am not Phan Kim Lien" is really funny.
Within a week of its release, he had just stepped on the horse and got 150 million box office, and others were about to catch up with him as soon as he went online. Is this horse racing even worse?
"Did Feng Xiaogang call?" Wang Zhongjun's question suddenly rang in the office.
"Yeah, yes, I've hung up."
Wang Zhonglei shrugged and put his phone into his pocket again.
He knew that Feng Xiaogang must be feeling particularly uncomfortable now, and he could also understand that feeling, but there was nothing they could do because the outcome was already doomed.
"Don't worry about this movie. After he comes back from Golden Horse, you can urge him to finish shooting "Youth" first, and then "Mobile Phone 2". It's almost ready to be approved."
"Okay, I understand. I had already communicated with Fan Bingbing during the premiere of "I'm Not Fan Jinlian" and she also agreed to play the female lead in the second part."
"That's good."
A smile appeared on Wang Zhongjun's face. After all, Fan Bingbing's salary now is much higher than when he acted in "Mobile Phone 1", so he naturally has more room for maneuver in terms of contracts.
However, he still added a special sentence: "After preparations for "Mobile Phone 2" begin this time, you must communicate well with the public relations department. You must control public opinion and don't go too far!"
"I understand, I understand." Wang Zhonglei chuckled and did not regard this matter as anything important. He even complained calmly:
"Back then, that guy was a CCTV host. We had to be afraid of him. Who is he now? Even if we give him some courage, will he still dare to bark in front of us?"
Wang Zhongjun nodded slightly, and a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.
As Wang Zhonglei said, today is different from the past. Now that Huayi is a listed company, how can it be afraid of a small businessman?
…
"Brother, do you think Fan Bingbing will win the Golden Horse Award this time? If she gets the Golden Horse Best Actress, she will hold the two domestic awards of Baihua and Golden Horse, surpassing Li Bingbin and Zhang Ziyi. Big cut!”
During lunch, Han Jia Nu's sudden question surprised Chen Fei.
"What? You are quite concerned about the results of the Golden Horse Awards?"
"I'm just curious. After all, someone has started bidding online. If I choose her, I will definitely win a prize."
Chen Fei shook his head, "We'll know tomorrow night. I can't say. After all, the golden horse and golden statue...including the golden rooster and the hundred flowers have actually stopped looking at acting skills a long time ago."
"That's true. Now it depends on who spends enough money." Han Jianu curled her lips and muttered disdainfully: "Anyway, I want to send "The God of Medicine" to participate in Cannes. As for these domestic awards , I don’t care about it.”
"I very much agree with your point of view." Chen Fei patted her shoulder. It was rare for the two of them to have the same thoughts and opinions on winning prizes.
But at this moment, Wen Mushi's voice suddenly sounded in their ears: "Director Chen, Director Han, look, the casting list for "Shadow" has been announced."
"oh?"
"So fast?!"
The two melon-eaters almost subconsciously picked up their phones and opened Weibo.
"LeTV Pictures, Bona Pictures, Tencent Pictures, Perfect Village Show, and Zhang Yimou Studio jointly issued an announcement: The casting list of the costume, martial arts, and action-themed movie "Shadow" directed and written by Zhang Yimou has been officially confirmed:
Actors Deng Chao, Sun Li, Zheng Kai, Hu Jun, Guan Xiaotong, Wu Lei, Wang Qianyuan, etc. will co-star in the film..."
"The media called Zhang Yimou's studio and learned that the reason why they chose Sun Li was mainly because they admired Deng Chao's performance. In fact, they did not think of using a husband and wife team at first..."
"Half an hour ago, Deng Chao issued a 'breach of contract statement' without warning, and said: 'I, Deng Chao, are extremely dissatisfied with the heroine of the movie "Shadow" announced today, and unilaterally proposed to break the contract. All consequences will be borne by the heroine alone. bear'.
But the accompanying picture is a self-portrait photo. In the photo, Sun Li is dressed in costume, smiling, and feeling very good. Deng Chao, on the other hand, has a reluctant look on his face and rolled his eyes, as if he is spreading dog food..."
"Guan Xiaotong posted a message saying that she is very grateful to Director Zhang Yimou for his support and recognition. He will study hard and try not to cause trouble to the crew."
"It is reported that "Shadow" will officially start filming after "The Great Wall" is finished, and the estimated shooting period is 3 to 5 months."
Throughout the afternoon, press releases about Zhang Yimou's new movie "Shadow" were constantly updated online.
Fans seemed very excited, but many people in the film and television circles were talking about it...
Zhang Yimou, Deng Chao, Sun Li, Zheng Kai, Hu Jun... Looking at it, these are all the previous star shareholders of LeTV Pictures!
But now, with LeTV being investigated by the China Securities Regulatory Commission and the stock price falling again and again, these star shareholders who were so prosperous last year have become a "suffering alliance."
"Haha, word has spread in the industry that this "Shadow" is actually a big gathering of star sufferers from LeTV Film Industry..."
Ren Zhonglun took time off the set to complain and laugh at LeTV's current situation, as if he was just watching the fun and not taking it too seriously.
But in the next second, his guard was broken, because Han Jianyu asked him a soul torture: "Uncle Ren? Why are you coming to the set again? Your guest role has ended? Is it to commemorate the probation? The shot of Indian God Oil?”
Chairman Ren Da's face darkened, "Little girl, why do you ask so many questions about the film? Just carry your camera!"
The mountain eagle on the side suddenly began to protect his daughter, and explained in a strange voice: "The "Railway Tigers" invested by your uncle Ren is about to be launched. I flew to the capital today. If nothing else, it should be Here you go to find a ‘talisman’ for yourself.”
"Looking for an amulet?" Han Jianu looked confused: "Why are you looking for an amulet?"
"Because it's easy for a gun to go off in that movie and injure yourself. You have to wear a 'bulletproof vest,' right? Director Ren?"
"Hmph, I don't even know what you are talking about."
Ren Zhonglun turned around and left without hesitation. He did have an appointment with someone tonight and had to prepare in advance. After all, he had to let the other party save his life at the critical moment.
…
The night passed quietly.
The next morning, just after nine o'clock, the circle became lively again.
Just because the first-day box office of "La La Land" has been released!
"The song and dance themed movie "La La Land", produced by Feiyue Pictures, with Chen Fei as the director, screenwriter, and male lead, and Liu Yifei as the female lead and producer, grossed 147 million yuan at the box office on the first day."
"The daily new box office of "I'm Not Fan Jinlian" has dropped below 10 million, and yesterday's new box office was only 5.24 million."
"The Hollywood imported science fiction blockbuster "Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them," produced by Warner Bros., grossed 74.841 million at the box office on its first day."
"Due to exhausted box office potential, the Hollywood imported science fiction blockbuster "Doctor Strange" produced by Marvel was officially canceled early yesterday morning, with a total box office revenue of 903 million yuan."
"The latest information has come from the crew of the fantasy film "Legend of the Demon Cat" directed by director Chen Kaige. The film is expected to complete all filming around December 15."
"The 53rd Golden Horse Awards Ceremony will officially kick off, so stay tuned..."

"Huayi is being targeted by Wanda Cinemas and Pan Asia? One family is in the open? The other is in the dark? What a good trick!"
On China Film's side, La Pikang looked at the box office results of "La La Land" with some emotion.
I have to say that the methods of these two companies were really vicious. They crushed Feng Xiaogang's hard work and slapped him in the face so hard!
Suddenly, the office door was pushed open.
The secretary walked in and placed an invitation letter in front of La Sheikang: "La Dong, this is the invitation letter from Feiyue Film and Television to the premiere of "Operation Red Sea"."
"Oh? Is the time confirmed?"
"Well, on the 28th of this month, the location has been decided by Hai Zheng. It's in the Great Hall."
"Okay, go and do your work." La Sheikang reached out and picked up the invitation, feeling a little depressed for no reason.
"Operation Red Sea" has a 5% investment share from China Film Group, which also means that if this movie is a big success, he can get a part of the political achievements... but it will only be a small part.
The most important thing is that since then, the cooperative relationship between China Film and Feiyue Film and Television has been completely severed and can never be restored.
"Oh, am I really wrong?"
…
With the premiere date of "Operation Red Sea" confirmed, Chen Fei was still carrying out his work in an orderly manner, but Hai Zheng was inexplicably excited and busy!
Originally, the application form for key extension should have been sent by Feiyue Film and Television after the movie was released.
But Director Lin from the Maritime Administration took over this job and vowed that he would complete the task smoothly!
Chen Fei had no choice but to let the other party do what he did.
However, this is fine. If the Maritime Administration comes forward, any formalities or procedural issues will not be regarded as problems. The department in charge of the review should make corrections on their own.
"You don't have to worry about the decoration of the auditorium. Hai Zheng has taken care of everything. You can just come when the time comes. We have invited Kang Hui to host the show. I will send the detailed program list for the premiere to your email tomorrow. …”
After more than ten minutes, the call was hung up.
Chen Fei scratched his head and muttered subconsciously: "So, I am forced to be a hands-off shopkeeper? This partner is too comfortable, right?"
"Dingle bell!"
Suddenly, the phone rang rapidly again!
Chen Fei originally thought that Hai Zheng had forgotten to inform him of something, but when he pressed the connect button, he heard Wang Changtian's voice:
"Tomorrow we will officially announce the plan for the talent show. Is there anything else you want to say?"
Hearing this, Chen Fei said almost subconsciously: "Remember not to decide on the champion by default, and don't engage in shady activities. Everything should be done fairly and justly..."
"Okay, I understand." Wang Changtian responded while changing a new topic: "The fifth season of "Running Man" is about to be recorded. Remember to give your company's cooperative studios a chance to watch. Anyone who needs publicity should report it in advance.”
"Okay, got it."
"By the way, Mango launched another "Longing for Life", which brought Huang Lei and He Jiong together, and they also played a slow variety show.
Guangguang analyzed the form and content of this program and finally concluded that it is likely to compete with "Running Man" and "Extreme Challenge", so I plan to increase the scale of these two programs and make them more fun. Something new..."
"Okay, you and Gu Yongqiang can discuss it. Just give me the final result, and I won't get involved."
"Hey? You're the hands-off shopkeeper..."
Wang Changtian complained to him a few words and then hung up the phone.
…
In the afternoon, the entry "The court ruled that Yu Zheng had plagiarized and has now compensated Qiong Yao 5 million, but refused to perform a public apology" was once again on the hot search list.
However, these sudden hot searches did not stay on the Weibo hot search list for too long, because within a few hours, the results of the 53rd Golden Horse Awards were announced.
Even after the awards were over, it was already past 10 o'clock in the evening, but the results still caused an uproar on the entire Internet!
"The winner of the 53rd Golden Horse Awards for Best Feature Film was an upset. "I'm Not Phan Kim Lien" regrettably lost, and the movie "August" won the grand prize."
"Feng Xiaogang won the Best Director Award for "I'm Not Pan Jinlian" and said in a speech: After winning this award, he will immediately invest in the filming and production of "Youth", and begged major theaters to give "I'm Not Fan" another award. "Golden Lotus" is the last chance. Good movies should not be suppressed or buried... Suspected Connotation Wanda Cinema Line."
"Mainland actor Fan Wei won the Best Actor Award for "No Problem"."
"The biggest upset of this year's Golden Horse Awards! Fan Bingbing, who won the Silver Shell Award at the 64th San Sebastian International Film Festival for "I Am Not Fan Jinlian", unexpectedly lost to Ma Sichun and Zhou Dongyu, and missed the Golden Horse Award for Best Actress. It was really surprising!"
"After the awards ceremony, Fan Bingbing said in an interview with the media: "I am very grateful to the Golden Horse Awards, and please don't worry about me too much." Then he left in a car and did not attend the awards dinner. His lonely back was not much different from Gong Li, who had previously vowed never to attend the Golden Horse Awards ceremony..."
