Chapter 223 222 When Will Our Film "Left Ear" Be Released?

Chapter 223 222. When will our film "Left Ear" be released?

"Play for two more days, why are you in such a hurry to go back?"

Wei Datong and Wu Yuzhi had packed their luggage early in the morning, and Wei Wu habitually tried to persuade them to stay before leaving.

Since the tickets have been bought, it is likely that they have to leave today.

But if he doesn't persuade them to stay, wouldn't it show that he is a heartless son?

Wu Yuzhi shook her head and said, "I've had enough fun. This time I came here mainly to see your home and get to know Yifei's mother. Now that the mission is completed, we can go back with peace of mind."

Liu Tianxian also persuaded from the side: "Uncle and aunt, stay for a few more days and go back after the Lantern Festival!"

Wei Datong smiled and said, "No, this delay will take another three or four days. We have come here to shop and play, and it's almost time to go back!

"In previous years, our motorcycle shop usually opens on the eighth day of the first lunar month. This year, it's the eleventh day. We are both people who can't sit still. In fact, we have been anxious for a long time! ”

Hearing his father say this, Wei Wu stopped persuading him:

"Well, since you insist on leaving, I can't do anything about it. I can only wait until you are free to come over and play for a few more days."

Wu Yuzhi smiled and nodded: "Okay, you two must be good. You are a man, you should be more tolerant of girls.

"When you are not busy, remember to take Yifei back to your hometown to stay for a few days. Don't go back every time on the 29th of the twelfth lunar month. Your father and I miss you every day!"

Wei Wu scratched his head embarrassedly: "Okay, when I am free here, I will go back to see you."

Wu Yuzhi looked at Liu Tianxian again: "Yifei, if Wei Wu, the stinky boy, dares to bully you, then you can call me and auntie will help you scold him severely."

Liu Tianxian couldn't help but glance at Wei Wu proudly, covering her mouth and laughing:

"Okay, thank you auntie."

After a simple farewell, Wei Wu and Liu Tianxian sent them to the airport.

Because they are now celebrities, in order not to attract attention, they only said goodbye to their parents in the car and then returned.

"Where are we going now? To the set?"

Liu Tianxian raised her hand and looked at her watch: "It's only 9 o'clock now, so take me to the set. Maybe I can find time to shoot a few scenes this morning."

"Okay", so Wei Wu told the driver to take them directly to the set of "Left Ear".

"Do you want to go in too?"

Wei Wu nodded and said: "Well, I'll go and see it too. I haven't seen it after the Chinese New Year this year!"

In fact, whether it is "Youth" and "Left Ear" that have already started shooting, or "Fleeting Time" and "My Deskmate" that are about to start shooting, these four youth films were all shot in Yanjing, but they just found different schools.

As soon as they heard that the big boss was coming, the crew of "Left Ear" gathered around to wish Wei Wu a happy new year:

"Happy New Year, Director Wei!"

Wei Wu smiled and handed over a red envelope: "Happy New Year!"

"Happy New Year, boss, I wish you a big fortune in the new year!"

Wei Wu smiled and handed over another red envelope: "Thank you, Happy New Year!"

"Happy New Year, boss, I wish you a lot of money in the new year!"

As usual, Wei Wu stuffed another red envelope over: "Thank you, Happy New Year!"

...

Wei Wu turned into a ruthless red envelope machine, basically giving a red envelope to anyone who said a few auspicious words.

After everyone received the red envelopes and went back happily, director Lu Yang also came forward to wish Wei Wu a happy new year:

"Happy New Year, I wish our Weiguo Films' TV series will be more popular than the last!"

Wei Wu also took out an especially generous red envelope from his handbag and handed it over:

"Happy New Year. Thank you for your hard work during this period. How is it? Can our "Left Ear" be completed on time?"

"Thank you," Lu Yang took the red envelope with a smile, then nodded and said:

"No problem, it will be finished on time on March 10th."

Wei Wu nodded slightly: "That's good."

Today is February 28th, and tomorrow is March 1st, which means that there are still 10 days before the filming of this movie is officially finished.

This drama started shooting on New Year's Day. If it is finished on March 10th, it will be 69 days, minus 5 days of annual leave, which means the official shooting time is 64 days.

Two months and a few days, it should be said that Lu Yang is still shooting faster, at least much faster than Xue Xiaolu.

On the one hand, it is because the team is more mature. After all, they have produced two youth films in a row, so they are naturally familiar with it.

On the other hand, the director's work efficiency varies from person to person. Some people have talents in this area and are born to shoot faster.

It has something to do with experience, but not so much. Just like Wang Jiawei has been shooting movies for so many years, he is still so slow that it makes people anxious!

After a brief greeting, Lu Yang suddenly asked:

"When is our "Left Ear" going to be released?"

Wei Wu pondered and said: "Normally, it should be released in the summer, but the competition in this summer is too fierce.

"Then we can only postpone it to the next schedule, which is the National Day. If nothing unexpected happens, it should be September 30th."

It has been analyzed before that this year's summer schedule is too brutal. "Youth" basically gave away its head, and "Left Ear" is actually similar.

In fact, the summer vacation is mainly in July and August, because only graduating students have summer vacation in June, while most other students only have vacation in early July.

In July this year, "Painted Skin" will be released, and August will be even worse, with a lot of Hollywood blockbusters being released together.

Lu Yang naturally had no objections: "Oh, the National Day schedule is good, it gives me more time to do post-production.

"Well, are there any opponents worth paying attention to during this year's National Day holiday?"

Wei Wu thought for a while and said: "Don't worry, the competition for this summer's season is completely incomparable to last year.

"As far as I know, there seem to be only two movies worth mentioning during this year's National Day schedule, one is "Taxi Express 4" and the other is "The Iron Triangle."

The former is okay. Although it is a big IP, it is too hot and the audience is no longer willing to buy it.

It was the latter that made Lu Yang couldn't help but feel a little nervous:

"Is "The Iron Triangle" a movie co-directed by Xu Ke, Lin Lingdong, and Du Qifeng?"

Wei Wu nodded and said: "Yes, the starring roles are Louis Koo, Simon Yam and Sun Honglei."

What can I say about this movie? It's quite creative. It's a three-part movie. Each of the three directors is responsible for one part and then puts it together.

Although the idea was good, the ending was: the three monks had no water to drink.

The three people obviously couldn't unify their styles, and the feeling they presented when they were put together was just one word:

chaos.

Three famous directors joined forces, and the final score of this movie was only 6.5.

To put it bluntly, if any of these three directors directed this movie alone, I dare not say that the box office would be higher than it is now, but the rating would definitely be higher than that.

In the previous life, "The Iron Triangle" was released on October 1, with a final box office of 29.17 million, ranking 18th in the year.

"Taxi Express 4" was released on October 4, with a final box office of 14 million, ranking 33rd in the year.

The combined box office of these two movies is almost half of last year's National Day box office runner-up "Baby Project."

Not to mention that there was also the annual runner-up "Silver Driver" on the National Day last year with a box office of 138 million, which is even more incomparable!

Last year during the National Day holiday, two films made it into the top ten of the year, but this year’s “Taxi Express 4” and “The Iron Triangle” both ranked outside the 15th place!

Therefore, this schedule is undoubtedly very friendly for "Left Ear", and Liu Tianxian seems to be lucky.
