Chapter 619 The Worst Blockbuster in Film History!

In order to improve the appearance, Huayi has carried out many promotional activities and strategies for Feng Xiaogang's new movie "Personal Customization".

From the initial casting of actors, to the subsequent film opening ceremony, and finally a grand wrap-up dinner...

And in order to keep the heat going, they also paid a high price to buy a hot search on the day the film was wrapped.

"Director Feng Xiaogang's work "Personal Customization" has been successfully wrapped today. Huayi will ensure that the film is successfully launched in the Lunar New Year file and win the No. 1 movie box office ranking!"

This hot search topped the list as expected, attracting many people to watch.

From the time the film was launched, the filming cycle of this film was only more than two months, which is much faster than ordinary movies.

And the target was set for the Lunar New Year file right after the filming was finished, which shows how much Feng Xiaogang trusts his new movie!

After seeing the news, some producers and crews who also set their sights on the Lunar New Year file immediately fell into thinking.

The opponent is so fierce, for the sake of later box office considerations, they have to be cautious.

Besides the Lunar New Year period, the Spring Festival period is also a good time to consider. After all, according to the experience of previous years, the Spring Festival period is also a good time.

But what no one expected was that "The Martian" actually had a "space preview" and "airdropped into the Spring Festival period!"

When the three astronauts in Shenzhou 10 began to play the finished film of "The Martian", the bosses of the film and television production companies felt their scalps tingling.

This operation is simply a dimensionality reduction attack!

Sending the movie to space, isn't this a complete takeoff from the spot?

Seeing that the top spot on the Weibo hot search list was dominated by "The Martian", Wang Zhonglei was simply crying without tears.

So much money was spent on publicity, and it just showed a little sign, and it was directly suppressed.

Where can I talk about this?

It was not until this time that a group of people in the film and television industry suddenly realized that the Film Bureau had repeatedly reiterated the power of the sentence "will provide help for the publicity of domestic science fiction blockbusters".

The movie was sent directly into space and even appeared on the evening news. What kind of publicity scale is this?

Some experts analyzed it afterwards and finally came to an extremely shocking conclusion.

"If the publicity of "The Martian" is converted into publicity funds, it will cost at least nine figures, and it is not something that can be done simply by spending money!"

For a time, the entire film and television industry fell silent again.

Before this, many people thought that Feiyue Film and Television and Huayi were at the same level, and because the latter was a listed company, its status was vaguely higher than the former.

But when "The Martian" appeared in space, everyone suddenly realized that the two companies were no longer in the same dimension.

If it comes to revenue, it is no exaggeration to say that 5 Huayis combined can barely touch the heels of Feiyue Film and Television.

A high-yield film company that still takes the route of boutique production has a terrifying gold content!

On the other side, Zhang Yimou secretly breathed a sigh of relief.

Recently, the media has been focusing on the incident of him being fined for having more children than allowed, which made him very annoyed. It just so happened that "The Martian" came out at this time, which attracted some attention and attracted a wave of fire.

It's quite unfair for him. Netizens actually calculated his income over the years through the amount of the fine.

When they saw that number, many people even felt sorry for him!

Such a big director has not earned as much as other TV directors in these years, which is unique in the circle.

At the same time, Liu Dehua, who was far away in Hong Kong, also secretly breathed a sigh of relief.

Since the release of "The Secret of Fuchun Mountain Dwelling", he has been under tremendous pressure during this period!

In order to maintain the mystery, the damn film company has kept the film confidential from the outside world from the start of the project to the release.

Except for a few eye-catching movie posters, no other news about the film has been leaked.

Coupled with the large-scale "global media conference", the expectations of movie fans have been raised to a very high level!

Moreover, during the press conference, director Sun Jianjun publicly called out in front of the media and audience, hoping to get Chen Fei's correction.

After the media exposed the details of the press conference, it immediately triggered a heated discussion on the Internet.

Many uninformed viewers thought that this movie must be awesome, otherwise how could Sun Jianjun dare to publicly call out Chen Fei?

Although Chen Fei did not respond at the time, the public opinion and publicity effect of the movie were maximized.

In the eyes of many people, this was a challenge launched by Sun Jianjun to Chen Fei, intending to use the box office of the movie to prove who is the best science fiction director!

At that time, several producers such as China Film, Movie Channel, Media Asia, Phoenix Satellite TV, etc. also gave affirmation and support on their official websites.

Under the blessing of these multiple factors, the attention of the film once reached a peak!

Many people feel that the upcoming summer season will inevitably be the time for "Heavenly Secret Fuchun Mountain Dwelling" to shine, and director Sun Jianjun will also take this opportunity to rush into the ranks of first-line directors.

When the film’s first-day box office results were announced, many uninformed netizens thought the film was a success when they saw the number “53.68 million.”

However, when those netizens who have not yet gone to the cinema to watch the movie logged on to Douban to check the relevant film reviews, they found that this is a pure super bad movie!

"It's really fucking, this is no longer an advertisement inserted in the movie, but a movie inserted in the advertisement, which is even more amazing than what Feng Xiaogang did!"

"The plot is really bad, it doesn't connect at all, it consumes the public and the actors! A businessman who is a director and screenwriter is overestimating his ability.

Although the horror and emotional elements are added, they are all a bottle full of dust and shaking! In the end, it will be seen as a comedy! Damn, it's really amazing!"

"The best part of this movie may be the Audi advertisement! It shows the scene that Audi can also move forward in the desert."

"To be honest, no matter how good the special effects are, they can't cover up the paleness and absurdity of the content. I went to see it at midnight, and I really regret it! I almost fell asleep! Fuck! "

"Two points for Lin Chiling's ever-changing fashion show, one point for Tong Dawei's foreign language, and one point for the many beauties selling their bodies. "

"I didn't know how to describe the badness of this movie for a moment. The worst words in my mind are not enough to express my feelings. "

"I always thought that "The Promise" and "The Banquet" were the worst movies among the big movies, but when this "The Secret: Fuchun Mountain Dwelling" came out, I found that there are even better ones among the strong ones!"

With countless negative reviews, not only the crew was affected, but even the actors involved suffered undeserved disasters.

Especially Liu Dehua, who lost millions of fans overnight, and mocking voices were all over his Weibo account, almost scolding him to death!

Even though he accepted the criticism of fans in front of the media and chose to apologize sincerely, he still couldn't suppress the anger and indignation in the hearts of fans.

As a last resort, he could only choose to withdraw from the promotion and return to Hong Kong, preparing to avoid the limelight for a while.

But the fucking thing is that Sun Jianjun, who adheres to the attribute of "businessmen go for profit", actually came up with a wave of reverse marketing.

He bought a lot of press releases and actively promoted that this was the worst "blockbuster" in film history, even worse than "Legend of the White Snake".

This wave of operations did attract a lot of attention, so much so that the box office actually saw a wave of increases!

But those fans who watched the movie did not give good reviews, but instead went on major social platforms and began to criticize every detail of the movie crazily!

As the leading actor, Liu Dehua was the first to be surrounded and questioned by a large number of fans.

Originally it was just a work to repay favors, but I didn't expect it to end up in this situation now. Don't mention how depressed it is.

Liu Dehua didn't even dare to check Weibo during this period. After analysis, his team concluded that if he wanted to eliminate the impact of "Heavenly Secret Fuchun Mountain Dwelling", it would take at least three years of precipitation!

Thanks to the big news of "The Martian", otherwise he would not even dare to go out.

His agent has been living with him for a while. When he was watching the news online, he suddenly said, "Brother Hua, I heard that Feiyue Film and Television has approved another script. It seems that Director Chen Fei will be in charge. Why don't you call them to find out the situation?"

The best way to forget a relationship is to start a new one.

Similarly, if you want to eliminate the impact of shooting a bad movie, the best way is to shoot a high-quality film and television work that sells well at the box office.

Looking at the circle, the only director who has never shot a bad movie since his debut is Chen Fei.

Not only has he never shot a bad movie, but even the scripts he wrote are all excellent works, and they have never failed.

If anyone can help Liu Dehua quickly leave the whirlpool of public opinion, it may be only Chen Fei.

Liu Dehua was silent for a moment, and finally said: "Director Chen's new film "The Burning Sun" has been shortlisted for this year's Shanghai International Film Festival. He should go there in person. I'll talk to him in detail when we meet."

"Okay, then I'll arrange for someone to book a flight."

The agent stood up and left the room quickly.

"Ah!"

On the sofa in the living room, Liu Dehua was deeply wrapped in the soft sofa, and his turbid eyes were full of regret.

If he had known this situation, he would never have taken this role!

...

There are more than two days before the opening ceremony of the Shanghai International Film Festival. Anyway, it's in China, so Chen Fei is not in a hurry to go.

In his spare time, he will handle some company work and draw a storyboard of "Taking Tiger Mountain by Strategy".

The script has been reviewed, and the team responsible for the early preparation is being set up.

While going to Shanghai to participate in the awards ceremony, Chen Fei also wanted to get the casting of this movie done at the same time.

The people who were going to the film festival were all there, which was a good opportunity, saving him from having to make special phone calls to the contacts.

On the day of departure, he asked the driver to take a detour to the crew of "Dear" and pick up Liu Yifei by the way.

Although she was not nominated, the film festival invited her to be the award presenter.

If it was before this, Liu Yifei would naturally have no interest. She ran so far just to be the award presenter. Do you really think she is free?

But when she learned that Chen Fei would also attend the award ceremony and had a great chance to win, she immediately took on the task.

Going to present an award to someone you like, just thinking about it makes me happy~

However, when Chen Fei met Liu Yifei outside the crew of "Dear", she seemed to be in a bad mood.

"What happened? Did the crew have an emergency? Do you need my help to deal with it?"

"No." Liu Yifei shook her head and explained in a low voice: "Uncle Chen is going to open another film and television company and wants me to invest in it. He also asked me to invite you to invest in it, but I didn't agree to him. But he turned around and went to find my mother. The two of them had a quarrel because of this matter..."

Hearing this, Chen Fei couldn't help but feel a little speechless for Mr. Chen's thick skin.

Red Star Wu suffered losses due to poor management.

When Mr. Chen realized that he couldn't make money in the film and television industry, he simply withdrew his shares, and Zhang Da Huzi and others also gave up their status as shareholders of Red Star Wu.

Liu Xiaoli didn't say much, but spent money to buy back the shares of these people and turned Red Star Wu into Liu Yifei's personal artist studio.

Then Chen Fei dragged Liu Yifei to Hollywood, and soared all the way until she became the hottest female star in China!

Hongxingwu was still in a state of obscurity a few years ago, but with the box office of "Your Name" produced and invested by Liu Yifei exceeding 1 billion, the company immediately became a hot film and television production company in the circle!

And now, Hongxingwu has participated in the investment of "Dear".

If nothing unexpected happens, this is another movie that can make huge profits.

Seeing that Liu Yifei and her daughter are getting better and better, Mr. Chen couldn't sit still and thought about coming back to continue to participate.

Liu Xiaoli certainly wouldn't agree, so she found an excuse to reject him.

But this person's selfishness did not diminish, and he actually proposed to reopen a film and television company, and asked Liu Yifei to participate in the investment, and asked her to try her best to invite Chen Fei to participate in the investment.

How could someone who can survive in this circle be a fool?

Mr. Chen's purpose was obvious. He wanted Liu Yifei to give back to the newly established company and use her name to solicit projects.

"He also gave me a script, saying that he wanted to make it into a co-production, and wanted Feiyue Films to take the lead, with me as the leading actor, and he himself would participate in the film investment in the name of the new company."

While speaking, Liu Yifei opened her handbag and took out a project book from it.

Chen Fei reached out to take it and saw ten big words written on the cover:

"Legend of the White Ghost: Desperate Escape"
