Chapter 848 Premiere
Chen Xi didn't lie.
Normally this is indeed the case.
34 imported films a year are enough to fill all popular schedules...
Of course, everyone knew later - the total box office in the first six months was 8.2 billion, 70% of which were imported films...
You have to know that there is an unwritten rule in the Chinese film market. Domestic films must account for more than 50% of the total box office in a year, which is the so-called "50% red line"!
Then, this year’s Domestic Film Protection Month directly became 60 days.
Not only that, but relevant authorities also let "The Dark Knight Rises" and "The Amazing Spider-Man" be released on the same day, and in the same week, "Prometheus" and "The Expendables 3" were released.
The market capacity is not enough to accommodate so many blockbusters, and in the end both parties will suffer. …
But now everyone doesn’t know that the General Administration will arrange this!
After all, market economy...
Moreover, we just signed the agreement...
Sorry, this is China!
Of course, no one said this about Shen Xudong, so in the eyes of Tang Yan's management team, what Chen Xi said made sense.
So... what to do?
Although there are still complaints in my heart, I can only implement it - what Chen Xi said makes sense. "Search" + "Why Shengxiaomo", two movies were released one after another, which is a good opportunity to partner with Tang Yan to prove her appeal and market value. .
Tang Yan is actually quite lucky. You have to know that there are thousands of acting graduates every year, but very few of them become popular and are known to the public. Most of it still takes many years of accumulation.
Tang Yan, when she was a sophomore, she filmed "The Best in the World" with Shen Xudong, and then "The Best Servant"...
No need to be involved in Hong Kong circles, no need to know his father Wang Jing...
She was identified as the first sister of the second generation of Tianmei early on.
In 2008, Nazha successfully entered the film industry with "20 Again", and later there were "Zhu Xian", "Why Shengxiaomo", "Too Late to Say I Love You", "Fireworks Faded"...
She is already a first-line actress!
It stands to reason that she can become the de facto first sister of Tianmei...
However, something went wrong and Zhao Liying and Yang Xiaomi were born!
These two people...at least are not inferior to Tang Yan in terms of popularity...
Of course, the film aspect is a bit inferior, as neither of them has ever collaborated with a famous director...
Tang Yan collaborated with director Chen Da in "Search", and she was the leading female lead!
For actors, working with famous directors is a sign of their status, especially actresses.
Therefore, everyone envies Nini and Zhou Dongyu, because their starting point is the ending point of many people!
Tang Yan has attracted a lot of fans with her role as Ye Lanqiu...
Moreover, her marketing team promotes "box office appeal" in various rhythms - Director Chen's first two films were quite embarrassing at the box office: "Mei Lanfang" failed to break 100 million, and "The Orphan of Zhao" stalled at the box office 190 million…
Moreover, "The Orphan of Zhao" has been miserable for a long time. In the same period, there were "Let the Bullets Fly" and "If You Are the One 2", which were at the bottom in terms of both word-of-mouth and box office...
Now "Search" is expected to surpass "The Orphan of Zhao" at the box office...
It’s normal to boast a word or two about box office appeal!
Now, the movie version of "Why Shengxiao is Silent" is released...
In the past few years, the box office of several projects that have been converted from dramas to movies has not been bad. The strong audience base and popularity of dramas accumulated by popular dramas have made it logical for dramas to be transformed into movies.
"Wulin Gaiden", "Love to the End" and "Struggle"...
"Struggle" was quite a failure, which shows that audiences don't buy into new movies that change actors and stories. "Emotional killing" is a good gimmick, but it may not necessarily bring good box office results!
"Why Shengxiao is Silent" is different. The original actors, the plot of the movie... basically copied the novel.
The plot of the novel "Why Shengxiao Mo" is very simple - Zhao Mosheng fell in love with He Yichen at first sight when he was a student. Through pursuit, the two began to fall in love, but the ensuing misunderstanding caused Mo Sheng to go to the United States. Seven years later, Mo Sheng met He Yichen again after returning to China. The memories after the separation, the misunderstandings after the reunion, and more communication enabled them to understand each other's mood and thus find the path of love...
A very important feature of Gu Man's novels is that there is no vicious female protagonist...
For example, Gu Man didn't even give her a chance to make an official appearance, the school beauty Meng Yiran in "A Little Smile Is Alluring". According to the idea of general novels, Meng will come out to have sex and make love, and end up miserable in the end...
By the way, Gu Man opened a total of 6 pits in 2004, but now only 2 and a half have been filled...
"The City Is Not Me", "The Sun Is Like Me", "A Girl Is Good at Picking Flowers", "Can I Just Smile"...
…
"Why Sheng Xiao Mo" was released on April 29, three days earlier than "Battleship" and five days earlier than "Avengers".
Everyone doesn’t think there’s any problem – “Killing”, “Everyone”, “Me 11”, and “One Flew Over the Home” have all been released...
Several movies have failed to shake the dominance of "Titanic 3D"...
Even "Search" is the same - after its release, "Search" was beaten by "Titanic 3D" - the latter's cumulative box office has reached 850 million!
The re-released version of "Titanic" grossed US$344 million at the global box office, with the mainland contributing half!
Unfortunately, Fox can only share 25% of the revenue. If it is made into a co-production and enjoys the treatment of domestic films, it will be a 41% share!
Therefore, when Cameron came to China the second year, he directly asked Han Shanping, "Is there any way to turn "Avatar 2" into a Sino-US co-production?"
I even hesitated to change the script, but unfortunately, it was of no use...
By the way, in fact, "Battle of Myeongryang" was originally co-produced by China and South Korea. China Film Group invested huge sums of money, but was taken advantage of. It is said that China Film Group requested to increase the number of Chinese scenes but was rejected. Since then, Chinese investment represented by China Film Group has basically not invested in South Korea. film.
You need to know that even in the golden age of Hollywood, if you pay, you are the boss.
Ironically, after the withdrawal of Chinese investment, Bong Joon-ho's "Snowpiercer" simply failed to meet the requirements of the American distributor Weinstein at the time, and was directly forced to change the composition of the crew. Song Kanghao was forced to change from the first male to the second male...
I didn’t see him beeping either!
At the premiere of "Why is the Shengxiao Silent", many celebrities came to support...
Most of them are to give face to Tianmei Company!
Shen Xudong greeted them one by one.
Then I met Fan Bingbing...
"haven't seen you for a long time!"
"...Sister Bingbing...Long time no see!"
After a brief hello, Fan Bingbing made a phone call gesture, and then left...
There are indeed a lot of people!
After "My Love from the Star", Fan Bingbing was firmly on the front line, and then... he was thinking about entering Hollywood...
It’s hard to understand the mentality of these people – you’re already on the front lines in China, why would you go to Hollywood to play a flamboyant supporting actress?
People call this careerism - Yuan Shikong, in an interview with "Time" magazine, Fan Bingbing said, "In ten years, I will definitely become the heroine of "X-Men"..."
Something is wrong…
You should say, 'Starring in a Chinese-language film, and it becomes a hit in North America! ’
Including Li Lianhua and Zhou Xun are thinking about entering Hollywood, or are being pushed by the team to implement this plan...
Then the post-85s generation ushered in a period of idle development...
