491: He Is Really Good (3)
After several years of fierce competition, Jiang Ge's movies have no rivals in the popular schedules of New Year's Day, Spring Festival, May Day, and National Day.
Major theaters also like his movies. After all, the higher the box office, the more they earn.
But this does not mean that other movies will not be released in these schedules. As the saying goes, a bicycle can become a motorcycle if you try hard.
There are many blockbusters in this year's National Day.
I think "Lost on Journey" is not as strong as Jiang Ge's movies released in the same period of previous years, so everyone wants to get a piece of the pie.
However, Jiang Ge's appeal is there, with the highest scheduling and pre-sale, winning 47% and 100 million.
At this time, the audience who are waiting for the movie to start in the cinema hall all look in one direction.
"Wow, what a scene..."
"Hey, that person looks like Shen Yang!"
"Cao Hua?"
"Hong Yi?"
"Li Farong?"
"Fuck, Jiang Ge!"
...
Hengdian has never lacked stars, but those who become the focus of the audience as soon as they appear still need to have a certain influence, such as these now.
Some people were surprised, while others had already stood up and ran over.
Their target was very clear - Django.
Signatures and group photos were indispensable, but fortunately there were not many people.
Finally, Django did not forget to say: "Remember to support our movie Lost on Journey."
Everyone laughed and said: "Next time for sure!"
In order not to attract onlookers, Django called on others to hurry in.
As soon as they left, a large group of fans heard the news and rushed over, but it was too late.
"Oh, just a little while."
Tian Xue sighed in the crowd. She was a fan of Jiang Ge. She had just seen the news of Jiang Ge in Hengdian Cinema on Douyin, so she dragged her boyfriend over. Who knew that they still missed it. She pouted and said to her boyfriend: "It's all your fault."
Xue Zhiyuan smiled bitterly and said: "I pedaled the shared bicycle until it smoked."
Tian Xue snorted and said: "Forget it... Since you are here, go buy the tickets."
Xue Zhiyuan asked: "Watching Lost on Journey?"
Tian Xue rolled her eyes and said: "Nonsense."
Xue Zhiyuan then walked to the ticket office and bought two tickets for Lost on Journey.
As expected, he took nearly half of the screenings, and the screenings were full.
When Tian Xue and Xue Zhiyuan entered the theater, they found that the attendance rate was also very high.
"The idol is awesome!"
Tian Xue's words were neither too loud nor too soft, and they were heard by the audience in the surrounding rows.
These people had different expressions. Some smiled, some raised their eyebrows, and some cast strange looks...
Tian Xue blushed and hurriedly pushed Xue Zhiyuan forward. After finding a seat and sitting down, she breathed a sigh of relief.
Not far from them, there were two people wearing hats, sunglasses and masks. They were the director and the male lead of another movie "Water Margin 2" released during the National Day.
"Is it really that serious?" Fang Mingxuan complained about Tian Xue's behavior in a low voice.
"There is no way. He is very popular, and he is versatile in film, television and music. It is normal to have such popularity." The director said.
"I want to see what else Chen Lei can do if he breaks away from the funny way of "Detective Chinatown". Fang Mingxuan muttered.
In the past, Chen Lei played a supporting role for him, and he was the new comedy star. Who knew that after Chen Lei followed Django, he became one of the most popular comedians in China through just two Detective Chinatowns. How could he be balanced in his heart?
"Even if the reputation of this film is not good, it can make 1.5 billion in the first three days." The director said sourly.
"What are you afraid of? Our "Water Margin 1" made 2.5 billion." Fang Mingxuan admitted that "Lost on Journey" failed, but "Water Margin 2" was a hit.
As the leading actor and investor, you must support and believe in your own movie.
While the two were chatting quietly, the lights in the theater dimmed and the big screen began to play GG.
["I remember the moment of joy for five hundred years."
"Is it worth it?"
"Even if I lose this thousand years of practice, it's worth it!"
"The human heart is evil."
"As long as it is human, it is sinister. Kill you, the snake catcher!"
...]
The first GG that came up was the trailer of "White Snake Origin", which was written by Jiang Ge and produced by Huafeng Vision.
Whether it is the appearance of the characters, the costume design or the scenery background, the ethereal feeling depicted is very beautiful, which attracted the audience's surprise and admiration.
"The first trailer is released in the cinema again."
"So beautiful!"
"The character models of Bai Suzhen and Xiaoqing are very beautiful."
"My wallet is going to be emptied again."
"They started with "Legend of the White Snake", so how far will "Journey to the West" be?"
"Haha, I look forward to the adaptation of Django."
...
Fang Mingxuan's eyelids twitched, and he thought, it seems that this guy has tasted the sweetness of "Kung Fu Panda" and immediately arranged a second animated film. I thought that the pursuit of efficiency would sacrifice quality, but judging from the trailer, the quality is not bad. Although it should not "boost the morale of others and destroy one's own prestige", it has to be admitted that this guy really has a set.
Only one set?
The next two GGs showed him Django's set after set. The trailers of "The Expendables" and "I Am Legend", one bloody and violent, the other thrilling and terrifying, the hard-hitting real texture, and the strong sensory stimulation made him want to watch the feature film.
“Calm down! We are rivals!”
Fang Mingxuan quickly adjusted his mentality, looking like he was going to kill a god to prove his truth.
GG finished playing, and the movie began.
[“He is mine, my creditor.”
2010, on the eve of the Spring Festival.
…]
The beginning was okay, explaining the identities of Li Chenggong played by Xu Lai and Niu Geng played by Chen Lei, one is a big boss, and the other is a milker.
【“What to Changsha, what represents what, Jia what…” Niu Geng was holding an IOU and reading the contents, but he could not recognize a few words: “What what what, what is written here, what what!”
The fat man next to him said: “I don’t understand, why do you have to take the Changsha one, the Chengdu one is worth 80,000!”
“What?” Niu Geng heard it and said: “How much does the boss owe us in total? The four of us only have 20,000 yuan in total, and you want 80,000 yuan from others, then what are we, I tell you, people can be overconfident, but they must be honest!”
……】
Chen Lei’s Mandarin with a Henan accent brought the first laugh of the movie, but the laughs were sparse and not many.
“Dialect jokes, old-fashioned.”
Fang Mingxuan laughed, but not because of the laugh, but because of the “movie”.
However…
The jokes became more and more frequent and varied, such as Niu Geng drinking a large bottle of milk in one breath, asking the flight attendant to open the window for fresh air on the plane, vomiting and swallowing it back due to airsickness, and the crow's mouth working well on the train, which made the audience laugh.
As for Fang Mingxuan, he couldn't laugh much at the moment.
