At first, I just wanted to make money

Chapter 874 Connotation?

What else can it do? Last weekend, a total of 3.2 million box offices were produced, and "Nine-story Demon Tower" directly accounted for 65% of the market, leaving 1.12 million.

"Four Famous Catchers" and "Painted Skin 2" add up to close to 3500 million. There is also a comedy "Get Your Father-in-Law" starring Xu Zheng. The box office is not high, 800 million...

Although it is not high, it actually took away 800 million. In addition, "The Story of Old Leith", "Pen Fairy", "McDull Belongs with My Heart", "The Bizarre Incident of the Twelve Constellations" and other old movies were added together Almost 600 million…

The remaining 6300 million "Wind Listener" and "The Disappearing Bullet" are divided up...

The theaters are still very willing to support "The Wind Listener". After all, the starring lineup is Liang Chaowei + Zhou Xun, and the directors Mak Siu-fai and Zhuang Wenqiang are well-known, not to mention the blessing of "The Wind"...

But "The Nine-story Demon Tower" is too strong. Although the lineup is 40%, the box office is close to five times that of "The Listener"!
——The box office of "The Wind Listener" in the first weekend was 4080 million...

"The Disappearing Bullet" is miserable, in terms of actors, cast, director lineup, and even the distribution company behind the scenes, they are completely unequal!
"The first weekend of "The Vanishing Bullet" passed 2000 million... It is estimated that the total box office will be at most 5000 million!"

"Xie Tingfeng can't handle the box office!"

This is a consensus!

Although Wang Xie has won the Grand Slam of the Academy Awards, he has to say that his acting skills are average and his acting skills are not wide.

The box office performance is very poor. The highest box office record for the leading role is "One Life and One Life" 2.2 million yuan, which seems to be unsatisfactory in today's market where the box office can easily exceed 10 billion and 8 million.

In particular, "The Battle of the God of Cookery" was given to the post-Spring Festival, and Ge You and Zhan Ruiwen were invited to help with the show, and the final box office was worth over [-] million...

Even in "Streets of Rage", the role he played was the opposite!
"...There are a few Hong Kong stars who can beat the box office..." Shen Xudong waved his hand: "In the current market, the blockbusters are more than [-] million yuan. The people in Hong Kong, from directors to actors, only have a box office of [-] to [-] million yuan. They are not rivals at all. !"

"No, Jiahe..."

"Golden Harvest has never advertised itself as a Hong Kong film, we have always promoted Chinese films!"

……

This year's summer schedule is different from previous years. There are two or three domestic films released every week, and there are many powerful distributors behind them.

No way, in the first six months, Hollywood blockbusters were too fierce, if it weren't for the performance of "When a Man is in Love", "Search", and "Why Shengxiaomo"-at least the market performance is good, it can be described as annihilated !
Even Shen Xudong has to avoid his edge, let alone other domestic films.

So... what to do with so many movies produced?
We must know that 2010 is a new climax of film filing. Two years have passed. Although most of the projects ended in abortion, there are also many completed projects...

The coal boss feeds more than half of the circle!

Then the three films "Suit Thug", "Painted Skin 2", and "Nine-story Demon Tower" were released one after another, setting a lot of money at the box office one after another!
"Thugs in Suits" was slightly worse, but it still had a box office of 3.6 million. The most important thing: overseas rights sold very well!
The big market of the film market is fixed. If your pie is bigger, mine will be smaller...

"Nine-story Demon Tower" was released for ten days, and the cumulative box office exceeded [-] million - the next week's box office surpassed the first week!
Then "The Wind Listener", "The Vanishing Bullet" and the newly released "Stunning Weapon" were out of luck: after entering the working day, the single-day box office of "Nine-story Demon Tower" remained at around 3500 million, and it even won the next weekend. 1.5 million, accounting for more than 75% of the market!

Then, a lot of people started to get upset...

Secretly poking and saying something like 'breaking the rules', 'just let your family show it! 'some type of…

Among them is Yu Dong.

Bona has released two films this summer, "Stunning Weapon" and "Hedong Lion's Roar 2"...

"Beautiful Weapon", directed by Mai Zishan, one of the three famous editors in Hong Kong, Tsui Hark's queen editor of martial arts films, later, Mai Zishan mixed with Wang Jing, participated in "Peeping Innocence (", "Agent of Red Fruit", "Office Ghost" and other films.

"Stunning Weapon" is called "Naked Soldier" in the Mainland, and "Naked Soldier" in Hong Kong. The English name is "Naked Soldier"...

It sounds like a third class!
Wang Jing made various promotions on Weibo: "Agent of Red Fruit" is over, NMLGB is a hit!

Really, "Peerless Weapon" has been around in the last century, and if you cast Qiu Shuzhen as the starring role, it is definitely a bad movie, with a garbage plot, outdated and disgusting jokes...

By the way, the starring role is Xie Tingting.

It's so ugly... It feels like Xie Biwang's women's clothing is more than ten times better than his sister's!
This bad movie was released in Hong Kong for three days and then it was scolded until it was released. It was released in the mainland, catching up with "The Nine-story Demon Tower" the next week...

Then the box office of "Stunning Weapon" did not reach 150 million in three days...

That's right, 150 million!
The reason is very simple, none of the main creators of this film came to the mainland to promote it, so Wang Jing yelled a few words on Weibo...

Many people don't even know that such a movie exists.

Yu Dong’s Bona is the producer and the mainland publisher—Yu Dong signed a three-year cooperation contract with Wang Jing, and during this period, Wang Jing launched the "Great Shanghai" and "Macau Wind and Cloud" series.In "Macau Wind and Cloud 3", the two sides broke up...

After all, Yu Dong didn't want to provoke Shen Xudong either—the last one who provoked him was Zhang Weiping, and now his reputation has been ruined!

But... Bona was suppressed too hard.

Bona started out relying on Hong Kong directors, and now he still relies on Hong Kong directors. The most important thing is that Huang Jianxin was poached by Shen Xudong!
Huang Jianxin is not only a leader of the fifth generation of directors, but also a pioneer of Chinese film co-productions. He is familiar with the production process of Hollywood and Hong Kong films.

Behind several heavyweight movies created by Bona are Huang Jianxin's arrangements.

Especially "Changjin Lake" is purely Huang Jianxin's plate!
He is now the director of the content production department of Tianmei Entertainment. In addition, his own company Shanghai Three-Dimensional Film Co., Ltd., Tianmei Company directly invested 4 million yuan, accounting for 60% of the shares, and does not participate in daily operations...

Of course, Huang Jianxin reciprocated the favor. He was the nominal producer of several "Ghost Blowing Lamp" films, and he also brought in Fu Ruoqing to co-produce...

This is called political endorsement!

In addition to Huang Jianxin, Tsui Hark, Chen Kexin and Lin Chaoxian are all under Golden Harvest - Tsui Hark's film studio was directly acquired 51% of the shares by Golden Harvest!

Yu Dong can only rely on Liu Weiqiang, Wang Jing and Er Dongsheng...

After Liu Weiqiang went to the north, it seems that he will not be able to make movies. To be precise, after leaving Mak Siu-fai and Zhuang Wenqiang, he handed in three films: "You Long Xi Feng", "Jing Wu Feng Yun" and "No Longer Let You Be Alone". one bad...

As for Wang Jing - he is now concentrating on "Great Shanghai" - the last time Wang Jing lost his underwear left was the "Future Police" with Andy Lau.

After reviewing the game, Wang Jing felt that the team behind the scenes lost.

So when it came to "Great Shanghai", he was ready to do his best and recruited all his golden partners from Hong Kong.

Wen Jun + Liu Weiqiang.

The former made Jiang Wen's debut novel "Sunny Day" and was called the class monitor by Jiang Wen. He is also one of the few people in the Hong Kong circle who can speak well among the big shots in the Beijing circle.

Liu Weiqiang, as mentioned above—in fact, as early as 1995, Wang Jing, Liu Weiqiang, and Wen Jun jointly established the "Best Partner" company.

The first movie of the group was "Young and Dangerous". Wen Jun worked on the script overnight, Wang Jing pulled Ekin Cheng, and Liu Weiqiang took the shot.

Together, the three are invincible.

With an investment of several million Hong Kong dollars and a 15-day filming cycle, the local box office exceeded 2000 million.

"Young and Dangerous" was a huge success, and the series took off.

In its heyday, the best partner company could make more than a dozen movies a year.

It has created a box office myth in Hong Kong film history!
"Great Shanghai", written by Wen Jun, produced by Liu Weiqiang, directed by Wang Jing, starring Zhou Runfa, this lineup is sure to win!
Ahem...

In fact, Shen Xudong really didn't want to see Yu Dong - after she went public, she also went to real estate!

——Won the luxury house project at No. 3 Workers Stadium West Road, BJDC District.

A film maker doesn't work hard on the content, but invests in real estate instead?

In addition, which of the new generation directors in the mainland has a relationship with Bona?

Ning Hao has Bad Monkey Company, which supported Wen Muye and the Olympic bid;
Chen Sicheng is also a master in this area. The "Manslaughter" series and "The Missing She" are all new directors with a Hollywood creative background. They are bolder in the creation of genre films, which are close to the tastes of young people. At the same time, Chen Sicheng personally controls the film on the set. …

In addition, Guo Fan, Lu Yang, and Rao Xiaozhi formed a small team...

In addition, Yu Dong has an unusual relationship with Xi Mihua. Xi Mihua has cooperated with Bona for a long time. Yu Dong once admitted to buying a box office, and Bona Ghost Field has been picked up many times...

But...Bona is not at the same level as Tianmei Media—Bona is listed on NASDAQ with a market value of about 9 million US dollars.

Where's Timmy?
Golden Harvest alone has a market value of HK$360 billion!
Therefore, within Tianmei Media in Yu Dong, Shen Xudong directly posted a sentence on Weibo, "Don't look for reasons from yourself, but pick other people's thorns. With such a boss, it's no wonder Bona can't develop!"Looking forward to next month's "Hedong Lion Roar 2", by the way, should "Sweeping Drugs", "Crouching Dragon" and "Chill" be withdrawn? '

　I went to pay a traffic violation fine in the afternoon and the queue was a bit long...

　　Also, there is no fine for the first violation.
