Chapter 980 My Movie King Dad (Asking for Monthly Votes)
Chapter 981 My Movie King Dad (asking for monthly votes)
Hao Yun didn't go to the reception, not because he was afraid that Zhang Weiping would embarrass him.
Zhang Weiping is not a decent person, but Hao Yun is not made of clay.
Zhang Weiping's New Picture Pictures is nothing compared to Hao Yun's Black Bean Media. Why does he pretend to be a big shot in front of Hao Yun?
The reason why Hao Yun didn't go was that as long as he stood at the reception of "Three Guns", no matter what he said or did, it would be a humiliation and provocation to the entire team of "Three Guns".
He was less than 30 years old, but he beat a 60-year-old man.
As for whether Jiang Wen's going there would be considered a provocation...
Who knows.
Maybe Jiang Wen just wanted to go over and provoke him.
This is something he can do.
He has always been upset that Zhang Yimou didn't x-on:him when he won the Golden Bear.
When Hao Yun returned home, he received another call from Wu Laoliu, saying that the first-day box office of "Let the Bullets Fly" had almost been counted.
Generally speaking, it will be released on the third day.
However, the "United Cinema" is also a member of the cinema alliance, so it is not difficult to get the data.
Although it is not very accurate, it is almost accurate from the information provided by the cinema.
40 million!
Once again broke the first-day box office record.
The last film to hold the record was "Your Name", which broke the first-day box office record of 33.71 million created by "Transformers 2".
40 million is a threshold.
This is very important for "Let the Bullets Fly".
If it is more powerful, the box office may exceed 100 million in two days.
There is no pressure to exceed 500 million in total box office.
As for "Three Guns", when its first-day box office came out, it had already started the mode of abuse on the whole network.
Some netizens even suggested that this movie is suitable for people with an IQ of -30 or mental illness and various brain-dead people.
From the perspective of his opponents at the same time, Hao Yun felt that netizens were really a bit too much.
Why should mentally ill people endure such discrimination and torture?
The first-day box office of "Three Guns" was 12 million, which is not too low, and is about the same as Gao Qunshu's "Jinling".
Ordinary people have great expectations for Zhang Yimou, who directed the opening ceremony of the Olympic Games. It is precisely because of this expectation that they went to the cinema and were fed shit.
But even if everyone feels that the movie is far from their expectations after watching it, due to the characteristics of "live broadcast" consumer goods such as movies, football games, and concerts, consumers always have information asymmetry before paying. Even if they have read all the film reviews, they are not considered to have seen the movie, so some people will still go to the cinema.
Otherwise, it would be difficult to achieve a first-day box office of 12 million.
"Jinling" had a box office of 12 million on the first day, but it eventually got a box office of 180 million. "Three Guns" could not even achieve a box office of 180 million.
Only the second day, the audience's enthusiasm for watching "Three Guns" decreased significantly.
The cinema chain began to reduce the number of screenings on the second day of the release of "Three Guns", with the proportion of screenings being 13%. The screenings in the next two days were reduced to 6.6% and 6.3%, but even so, some screenings were not fully occupied.
This is related to the crazy expansion of cinema chains in the past two years, the rapid increase in the number of screens, and the collapse of the reputation of the movie "Three Guns".
If "Three Guns" had no rivals during the same period, then even if many people criticized it, there would still be people watching it.
After all, many people regard watching movies every week as a kind of life adjustment.
It is equivalent to the occasional fine food for the cows and horses in the workplace.
But there is also "Let the Bullets Fly" to choose from during the same period.
The screenings vacated by "Three Guns" were given to "Let the Bullets Fly", and "Let the Bullets Fly" successfully achieved the achievement of over 100 million in two days.
At the same time, "Three Guns" was inevitably dragged down by "Let the Bullets Fly".
This is not the business of the publicity and distribution party.
China Film Group is responsible for publicity and distribution, with a target of 600 million. They mainly choose a big and open distribution method, with all-round publicity online and offline, and have no energy to do such small actions.
It was all netizens who spontaneously criticized "Three Guns".
After the fermentation of the past few days, "Three Guns" has become a super bad movie, a shame for the film industry.
Of course, it is also a shame for Zhang Yimou.
Zhang Yimou did not comment on this.
But there is a rumor (Jiang Wen) that the two Zhangs had a quarrel in private.
Zhang Weiping spent 2 million US dollars to buy the copyright of "Blood Labyrinth". The cost of making the whole movie, plus the publicity and distribution, "Three Guns" definitely exceeded 100 million.
Zhang Weiping may have lost money.
Zhang Yimou may have lost his reputation and his "box office appeal".
Judging from the current box office and reputation of "Three Guns Surprise", whether the "box office appeal" of famous directors can continue is a bit worrying.
If the audience is already disappointed, I am afraid they will not brave the biting cold wind, queue up to buy tickets, and risk being infected with influenza A to sit in the cinema for 2 hours.
In the winter, if you have to go out to watch it, just watch "Let the Bullets Fly".
According to gossip (Jiang Wen), the dispute also broke out between the big and small Wang brothers of Aunt Hua.
"Let the Bullets Fly" made over 100 million in two days, and this result made the big and small Wang brothers of Aunt Hua completely dumbfounded.
They recalled the scene when they refused to invest in this movie, shame plus, it was simply a large-scale social death scene.
The big and small Wang did not attend the premiere of "Let the Bullets Fly" or the premiere of "Three Guns".
They were extremely glad that they did not invest in "Three Guns", otherwise the ridicule would be overwhelming.
But if they don't show up, it doesn't mean they will be forgotten.
I don't know who spread the news that Hua Yi refused to invest in "Let the Bullets Fly", and vividly described the scene of soliciting investment at that time, portraying the big and small Wang as short-sighted and stupid donkeys.
When they were used as part of the material by the publicity and distribution department of "Let the Bullets Fly", their stock prices were inevitably hit.
Such a blind company can have a fart future.
Run away early and get clean, just sell the Hua Yi stocks in your hands.
In just a few days, the market value has shrunk by 80 million, and the negative impact is likely to last for a long time.
The key point of the quarrel between the big and small Wang is that Hao Yun gave them a chance.
Invited them to participate in the investment promotion conference held in Taiwan this year, and Wang Zhonglei arrived at the scene as a representative.
The two brothers manage the company, Wang Zhongjun is responsible for strategy, and Wang Zhonglei is responsible for specific company affairs, but Wang Zhongjun gave all the authority to his younger brother, as long as the project is good, he must take it.
Aunt Hua needs projects from Heidou Media.
Especially projects like "Your Name".
However, Wang Zhonglei seemed to have made up his mind and did not invest in any project.
"Let the Bullets Fly" was like a fuse that made the rift between the two brothers even bigger.
As for whether Hao Yun would look for them at the next investment promotion meeting, the Wang brothers no longer had any hope.
I once had a good opportunity for cooperation, but I didn't cherish it. I didn't regret it until the box office of "Let the Bullets Fly" exceeded 100 million in two days...
Two days of exceeding 100 million is just the beginning. How much box office a movie can have depends on how much word of mouth can ferment.
It depends on whether Han Sanping still has shame and whether he will continue to add insult to injury to "Three Guns" for "Let the Bullets Fly".
If the screening of "Three Guns" is less than 5%, it will be...
Too miserable.
Hao Yun attended two promotional activities with the distributor.
One was a university interaction, and the other was an interview with the main creators on the show. He had nothing to do with the others.
The question he was asked most often was whether he was worried that his next movie would not be as good as Let the Bullets Fly.
Hao Yun's answer was always smooth.
He said that he always maintained awe for movies and never felt that he had glimpsed the ultimate secret of movies.
Whether he succeeded or failed, he would not give up his efforts and would not give up trying.
As for Let the Bullets Fly, it actually does not represent his personal highest level.
Because this movie is full of Jiang Shu's hard work.
And he is just an assistant.
This humble attitude also made Hao Yun receive a lot of praise online.
However, when Jiang Wen was on the show, he made another statement that made everyone feel very reasonable.
Jiang Wen meant that Hao Yun made a great contribution to the filming of Let the Bullets Fly.
If Hao Yun hadn't stopped him, he might have stuffed a lot of things in.
At that time, the movie is likely to follow the path of The Sun Also Rises, and the audience has no idea what the movie is about.
You always say that Hao Yun wants to use new good works to prove that Let the Bullets Fly was made by him.
Why didn't Jiang Wen prove that "Let the Bullets Fly" can't be done without Hao Yun with one work after another?
"Let the Bullets Fly" is very popular, and Hao Yun himself is not idle.
He has two new films waiting to be released, one is "A Simple Life" and the other is "Source Code".
At present, Hollywood has released a movie "Avatar", which has an absurdly high box office, which is simply a killing.
It has raised the standard of science fiction movies all at once.
If "Source Code" is released at this time, will it be outdone by others like "Three Guns"?
So, Hao Yun and Michael Bay decided to postpone it again.
As for "A Simple Life", Hao Yun has no expectations for how much box office this movie will have, as long as it doesn't lose money.
This is also a movie that is going for awards.
So the release date is not so particular.
In addition, "Manchester by the Sea" is not going to premiere in Europe and the United States, and is preparing to focus on the North American market, so Hao Yun plans to arrange for "A Simple Life" to premiere in Europe.
Then focus on the Golden Horse and Golden Statue Awards.
In this case, even if Manchester by the Sea doesn't win an Oscar, Hao Yun has a great chance of winning the Golden Horse or Hong Kong Film Awards with A Simple Life.
Oscar, the three major European film awards, Golden Horse, Golden Film, Golden Rooster, other international film festival awards, or at least Media Awards, College Student Film Festival, and Changchun Film Festival.
Hao Yun thinks that with A Simple Life and Manchester by the Sea, he will definitely become an award winner in one or two years.
If A Simple Life had been released earlier, he might have been an award winner before his child was born.
In the future, when he or she writes a paper, he or she can write:
"My Award Winner Dad"!
