Chapter 794 File Raising

Chapter 794 Raising files...

The box office of "First Love" has a lot to do with the popularity of "East Palace". The starring cast has transplanted the male and female protagonists of "East Palace"...

Reba + Zhu Yilong.

On the fourth day of the broadcast of "East Palace", the plot of the eighth episode directly triggered a hot discussion on the Internet: Blood Wedding!

In the first six episodes, the male protagonist teases the female protagonist over and over again, asking her to be a hero to save beauties, and to catch fireflies. There are many tricks. In the seventh episode, the female protagonist is looking forward to a bright future for herself and the male protagonist, while the male protagonist and his group sit around the fire at night. talk about how to destroy her entire clan.

In the eighth episode, he directly led the troops to destroy the heroine’s grandfather’s clan and destroyed the country!

So exciting!

In the ninth episode, I personally went into battle to see the heroine's grandfather's head - in fact, he didn't have to chop it off himself, but it was a great military achievement!

Not only that, not only that, the hero's army also went to humiliate the heroine's mother, making her father crazy and her mother dead...

This thing is too cruel!

Audience discussion soared...

"East Palace" is a very good drama - it perfectly presents the plot lines that were deliberately ignored in the original work. It is not limited to love and love. It even intensifies the plot lines. The perspective is slowly drawn from the desert wasteland to the Toyo dynasty. Describes the bloody cruelty of men's power struggle, as well as their hypocrisy!

Of course, the most fundamental reason is that there is a market and audience for youth themes.

There was a vacancy in youth films before 2011. The romance films at that time were "Zhi Ming and Chun Jiao", "Singles" and "Love", which were about the love and hatred between urban white-collar workers. Compared with real life, they were more Like other people’s stories.

Romance movies are always captivating, but the key lies in whether the sense of immersion is strong or not.

The scope of the audience depends on whether the protagonist's career and life are grounded.

In China, there is no doubt that there are more people who have experienced high school life than those who are white-collar workers and domineering CEOs.

Oh, there were actually youth films before, such as "The Untold Secret", "Love Announcement"...

But the sense of immersion in these two movies is basically zero!

Especially "Love Announcement" - a big star pretends to be an ordinary student and goes to school to pursue a girl. In addition, the heroine plays guzheng, but there is Chopin in the bedroom, and there is a piano at the door... It is difficult not to doubt that this movie was made For Yundi...

Ahem, the so-called youth movie formula is actually: a bad boy paired with a goddess, a common girl paired with a top student, who I really like, fate separates people, and growing up is painful...

It’s not the legendary three-piece package of abortion, going abroad, and dying early!

…

In the car, Chen Xi held the data report of "First Love" in his hand and was very satisfied: "According to the current trend, "First Love" can get at least 350 million box office. If "The Thirteen Hairpins" is really not released in Jiahe Cinema, It is possible to exceed 500 million!"

Shen Xudong shook his head: "What do you mean by really not being there? We have already banned "The Thirteen Hairpins of Jinling"... Even if Zhang Weiping goes to the General Administration to intercede, it will be useless. If you say ban, you will ban it!"

"Then do you want to go to the United States and stay for a few days?"

"Why should I go to America?"

"The General Administration must really issue an order..."

Shen Xudong waved his hand: "In market economy, the General Administration will not directly issue administrative orders. At most, it can only give suggestions. Since it is a suggestion, then I can listen or not!"

Chen Xi didn't speak. He was silent for a moment and then changed the subject: "...How did you prepare for the Chu-Han war you planned before?"

"I originally planned to make seven movies...but nowadays it is difficult to make hits with ancient costume themes. We also did "Thirteen Soldiers Return to Jade Gate", but it really couldn't be sold! In the Three Kingdoms series, the only ones left are "Zhuge Kongming" and "Sima Yi" Two works already…”

"Then why did you agree?"

"The box office of "Legend of Hongmen Banquet" is almost 60 million, which means that there are still many viewers interested in ancient costume themes. If you control the budget and adjust the schedule well... it should be profitable enough, as long as the film has something new!"

"What's new?"

"Sima Qian had a grudge against the Liu family and deliberately used the Spring and Autumn Period brushwork to darken Liu Bang, thereby giving you the illusion that Xiang Yu can defeat Liu Bang..."

"Grudge?"

"Sima Qian was sentenced to castration... Let's make a movie "The War of the Giant Deer" first..."

"The Battle of the Giant Deer?"

"This is the story of Xiang Yu breaking the cauldron and sinking the boat." When it comes to this, Shen Xudong added something for you: ""Historical Records" records... Xiang Yu led troops to massacre Xianyang in the west, killed Qin Jiang's prince Ying, burned Qin's palace, and the fire was not extinguished for three months, so he collected it. The goods, treasures and women went east. People may say that King Xiang said: "The mountains and rivers in Guanzhong are blocked by mountains and rivers. The land is fertile, and we can dominate it all." King Xiang saw that all the Qin palaces were burnt and dilapidated, and he longed to return eastward. He said, "Wealth and honor will not return to their hometown, but they will travel at night like embroidered clothes. Who knows?" The speaker said: "People say that people in Chu wear monkeys and crown their ears. It's true." "When King Xiang heard about it, he cooked it..."

"What's the meaning?"

"Some people persuaded Xiang Yu that Guanzhong is easy to defend but difficult to attack. The land is fertile and the materials are abundant. It's better to stay here and dominate the world... Xiang Yu didn't listen. The person who persuaded him complained, 'People say that Chu people are like people wearing hats. Macaque, when I saw it today, it turned out to be true.'

When Xiang Yu heard about it, he was so angry that he ordered Han Sheng to be boiled into a pot of human flesh soup..."

"This is too overbearing..."

Chen Xi was about to say something when Shen Xudong's cell phone rang. He took it out, looked at it, and said casually: "It's Gao Jun... Could it be that Zhang Weiping is causing trouble again?"

"It's impossible...he's not really stupid!"

After answering the phone, Shen Xudong was stunned for a moment, and then replied: "I understand, I'll call you later!"

"What happened?"

"...Zhang Weiping is out of his mind!"

"Water?"

Chen Xi quickly took out his mobile phone and clicked on Weibo. Sure enough, Zhang Weiping said something nonsense again, "The theaters take the big lead and just make money while they're at it. They don't bear any risks and benefit the most."

If Chinese films want to go global, they must be in line with international standards and reasonable market rules must be formulated. Investors have the greatest risk. According to international practice, investors should account for the majority and theaters should account for the small share. This time, I have "The Thirteen Hairpins of Jinling" For the distribution of Christmas movies in North America, film producers account for 65%, US distribution companies account for 10%, and US theaters account for 25%. For "The Thirteen Hairpins of Jinling", I relied on my strength to speak this time. In this market, the strong make the rules. When I released "The Love of the Hawthorn Tree" and "Three Guns", I did not increase the share ratio. What I filmed this time was I have the confidence to make a movie with huge investment. If theaters are dissatisfied, they can refuse to show "Thirteen Hairpins." ’

"Why doesn't "Flying Swords of Dragon Gate" dare to raise the ticket price? He's not confident! Otherwise, why wouldn't he dare to release it on the same day as us? ’

Chen Xi finished reading quickly and raised his head to look at Shen Xudong, who was on the phone. He could vaguely hear, 'Check him, I think there is something wrong with his tax!' ’, ‘Besides, if you make a noise, I will take care of him! ’

After hanging up the phone, before Chen Xi could speak, Shen Xudong dialed the number in the United States again, this time communicating in English...

I didn’t understand it, but it probably means ‘collect more negative reviews…’

Not finished yet, Shen Xudong called Gao Jun again: "'Flying Swords of Dragon Gate' has been postponed and will be released on the night of the 11th!"

Chen Xi swallowed his saliva, he was going to kill everyone...

Shen Xudong made five or six calls in a row, then looked at Chen Xi expressionlessly: "What do you want to say?"

"fine…"

"...Some people really don't know how high the sky is! You can't give them face!"

Chen Xi whispered: "Actually, there are quite a lot of investors behind "Jinling Thirteen Hairpins"..."

"So what... I dare to deal with "Red Cliff", so why should I be afraid of "The Thirteen Hairpins of Jinling"?"
