my time as a director

This is a special topic added on a temporary basis. Originally, the notice above was on Saturday, giving "Rejuvenation" about a minute and a half to make a special report.

In fact, with the current popularity of movies, being on the news network is just icing on the cake, even if it doesn't, it won't lose too much box office.

However, this is indeed a very clear signal, representing the official recognition of Li Qian.

In China, official approval is more important than anything else, and being on the news broadcast alone is enough to make countless directors envious.

Since "Assembly" and "I'm Not the God of Medicine", it seems that no movie can have a separate topic. As for the popular schedule, there are many movies that show their faces together.

When the news broadcast was broadcast in the evening, the Mei Lanfang Grand Theater located on the West Second Ring Road of Beijing was also bustling and full of stars.

Directed by the famous international director Wu Yusen and co-starred by Zhang Ziyi, Jin Chengwu, Huang Xiaoming, Tong Dawei, Nagasawa Masami, Song Huiqiao and other Chinese, Japanese and Korean stars, the premiere of Oriental Titanic "Taiping Wheel" was held here.

seems familiar

A few years ago, there was also an epic movie that gathered stars from China, Japan, and South Korea. It took several years to create and cost hundreds of millions of dollars.

However, compared to the previous year, the premiere of "Taiping Wheel" will be a bit shabby.

Of course, it is only relative, and it is still the treatment of a blockbuster.

Looking at the scene of the premiere, Wu Yusen remembered that back then, the battle was much stronger than this.

The gap is a bit big, which makes the ambitious Wu Yusen a little unhappy.

However, one day later, when the first box office came out in the early morning of Friday, Wu Yusen couldn't laugh anymore.

The box office of "Taiping Wheel" was only 2000 million on the first day, not even as good as the youth film "The Year in a Hurry" which was 3000 million on the first day.

With an investment of hundreds of millions and a period of several years, big stars from several countries rushed to grandma's house.

Although "Rejuvenation" is facing competition from new films, it has just been broadcast on the news network, and its reputation has exploded. On Thursday, it still won a super high box office of 12 billion, which is higher than the sum of the two new films.

Chapter 481 20 million!

After the two new Lunar New Year films "Taiping Wheel" and "The Year in a Hurry" were released, the industry was stunned.

The former is called the Oriental Titanic, and two days ago Wu Yusen also said that this is not just a disaster movie like the Oriental Ship, it is more meaningful than the Big Ship.

It's a good show, with an investment of hundreds of millions, a lot of stars, and an international top special effects team. As a result, the box office was only 2000 million on the first day, which can be described as the biggest contrast of the year.

More importantly, the small-budget youth film "The Year in a Hurry", which was released on the same day, earned 3000 million yuan, which was 1000 million yuan higher than "Taiping Wheel".

This comparison has simply become the laughing stock of the industry.

Wang Changtian, in particular, was happy. "The Year in a Hurry" itself was a low-budget youth film. Although director Zhang Yibai's "Jiang Ai" was a box office hit, it had the added fame of a TV series.

Moreover, he encountered the extremely popular "Rejuvenation", and coupled with the super blockbuster "Taiping Wheel", Wang Changtian was already prepared to hit the box office. Anyway, the investment is not big, and he can't lose money.

But now.

"That's it?"

The super blockbuster "Taiping Wheel" is 1000 million lower than his low-budget "The Year in a Hurry" on the first day!

Don't mention how happy he was, because of Li Ming's accident and pony's funds, Wang Changtian wanted to get involved.

Although Wang Changtian has been playing small things, keen to invest in low-budget films, and was secretly ridiculed by major companies for being timid, he also wants to make blockbuster films.

And "Taiping Wheel" is a super big production, at least there is a guarantee at the box office, plus participating in the middle, the payback cycle is greatly shortened, so I want to give it a go.

However, in the end Huayang and Leshi intervened and squeezed Wang Changtian out.

In June, because of an accident with L who was closely involved with Jia Leting, at the same time when he was investigated, Jia Leting suddenly went abroad for investigation, disappeared for five months, and only returned half a month ago.

During that time, people in Leshi were in panic, and the stock price continued to drop to the limit. Wang Changtian wanted to participate in "Taiping Wheel" again, but was still rejected by Huang Zhongjun, who didn't want Wang Changtian to take another share.

What if I met Huang Zhongjun now? Wang Changtian really seemed to thank him for rejecting his entry.

Thinking of the box office of "Taiping Wheel"? And his own "The Year in a Hurry" sold well at the box office, double happiness? Wang Changtian felt very comfortable.

......

What about the Lunar New Year holiday? Some people are comfortable, while others are uncomfortable.

Needless to say, Zhang Zhao of Lay’s? After being investigated, Lay’s went through a series of incidents such as regulatory turmoil, political rumors, and capital crisis? That was a disaster.

Originally, I hoped that "Tai Ping Lun" could return to blood? But seeing this box office, let alone the return of blood, thank God if it can stop bleeding.

The other person who was furious was Huang Zhongjun. Although he didn’t have great hopes at first? The box office is low, so low? He just wanted to invest less, and even if he lost money, the distribution fee could make up for the investment deficit, even if he earned less.

However, Huang Zhongjun thought the box office was low, but he didn't expect it to be as low as 2000 million on the first day!

It simply broke Huang Zhongjun's bottom line? Even if he has no confidence, he still thinks that he can have a box office of [-] to [-] million.

But now? The box office reputation is poor, and there is still an opponent who is rushing to 20 billion? Then there is Jiang Wen who can stand to make money, let alone [-]-[-] million? Maybe half of them will be high-spirited.

"This Wu Yusen? He's not very capable? He has a bad temper, and even provoked Li Qian!"

After much deliberation, the irritable Huang Zhongjun directly threw the blame on Wu Yusen.

Huang Zhonglei also looked angry, "In the past two days, the patriotic enthusiasm of netizens and the recognition of fighting against Mi Yuanchao have been too high. Even Wu Yusen was scolded miserably. Otherwise, there is no such thing as a box office."

The two brothers scolded Wu Yusen a few words, and got entangled again.

"Brother, what should we do next? Do we need to increase publicity?"

"..." Huang Zhongjun hesitated for a while, but still shook his head, "Forget it, the box office on the first day is not even as good as "The Year in a Hurry", so don't waste that money, it's better to lose less money."

A movie with such a small budget as "A Hurrying Day" sold 3000 million yuan, so it cannot be said that the schedule is not good, the opponent is too strong, it is simply that the movie is not good.

Generally, big productions with a bad reputation can still cheat the box office by relying on the early stage, but the box office of "Taiping Wheel"'s 2000 million first day box office, no matter how much it is advertised and cheated, the box office of the first weekend is not much higher. It is not worthwhile to take in a large amount of publicity expenses.

......

A super blockbuster with an investment of hundreds of millions, only got this box office, which also indicates the complete sinking of a great director.

And this sunken great director has completely lost his mind at this time. It has been a whole day since he got the box office in the early morning, and he has not figured out why.

However, apart from the media chasing him, no one cares about what he thinks anymore.

Several major investors don't care about this film anymore, and other companies don't care. Apart from some of his fans, the audience only complains.

In terms of poisonous tongue, the audience may not be as good as literati, but the words are rough and reasonable, and it is the same when it comes to harsh words.

"Huang Xiaoming's cigar is really like eating spicy sticks!"

"You can't press fast-forward in the movie theater! Please go to bed directly for the next part, thank you!"
