The full-time male god of rebirth in the entertainment industry

"When other types of films are released every year, mystery films seem to be a very strange field. Those who occupy the top of the pyramid will always be those great works that have been gone for decades, those amazingly good stories, It seems that I no longer care about the current era..."

……

"Shocking! The dark horse in the National Day file suddenly appeared! "Mystery Visitor" took in 6000 million at the box office on the first day!"

……

"If there are still good-looking reasoning films released abroad, there are almost no results in this regard in China... Even in foreign countries, the reasoning style in recent years has gradually faded away from the old style, and has been infected with the unique style of the new era. It’s not a bad thing to have a style. In the era of technological development, this may be an inevitable change, and it’s not a bad thing. It still happens from time to time that mystery novels occupy the top three in the global sales list, but sometimes, like the author Readers who love the old style of reasoning will inevitably feel a little lost..."

……

"According to preliminary statistics, Dong Yuanbai's new work "Mystery Visitor" has a box office of 40 million on the first day, the next day's box office rose slightly, and it closed at 700 million. On the third day, it once again swept the box office of [-] million. , the box office exceeded [-] million in the first week, nearly [-] million, and ranked among the top three box office of all movies during the National Day schedule."

……

"As we all know, the most important key to a good reasoning story is to tell who the murderer is, but for a top-notch reasoning story, in addition to telling who the murderer is, it must also let everyone know who the murderer is. I can go back to this story over and over again, so that the author can have this impulsive reasoning story. In terms of publication time alone, it has not appeared for nearly 40 years. I am very happy. This year there is a Movies, even if they are ruthlessly spoiled, you can still watch them happily..."

……

"The counterattack of low-cost films with a cost of tens of millions of dollars at the box office? "Mysterious Visitor" may become the final big winner"

……

"Even the author, who unfortunately lives with Tucao, can hardly get his mind out of the plot while watching "Mysterious Visitor". Sometimes, I think I am distracted, but in fact I am just It’s just deduction about who is the murderer, such a magical movie, when I walked out of the movie theater, I felt that if I didn’t recommend it to everyone, it would be against my last conscience.”

……

Such recommended movie reviews can be seen everywhere after "Mystery Visitor" was released. It seems that all the Internet and all media were infected by "Mystery Visitor" overnight. No matter where you go, you can hear its voice, and it became popular overnight. Five of the ten places on the topic list are related to it, almost killing the list.

If these film reviews and topic promotions can still be publicized and incited, the ratings of "Mystery Visitor" on the most authoritative online commentary in China are real.

After the first week, the score of "Mystery Visitor" was fixed at 9.3 points, and it entered the hall of 9 ratings. Not only that, but the comments below are even more favorable. Except for some people who are not used to the movie's partner mode and dislike the character, There are very few bad reviews about the whole movie.

"It's good, it's good, it's good!!! I don't like my girlfriend who watches mystery movies and asks for three swipes for the first time!"

"Although I don't like the character of the male protagonist...but I can't deny his charm. I plan to watch it again."

"Do you have the original novel? Ask for the novel version! It's not convenient to rewatch the movie at any time, please find the novel version!!!"

In addition to this, there are still many people who frantically wrote one after another to decipher hidden clues only by watching movies after the second, third or even fourth swipe.

The effect is linked. If everyone around you is talking about the same thing, even if you have no interest in it, you will get a lot of information about it. If you go to the cinema with no purpose, just plan to watch a movie For movies, the effect of so many positive reviews is huge, and the most direct effect is shown in the theater lineup. The first day of "Mysterious Visitor" only accounted for 32.78%, and then counterattacked all the way, breaking 50% at its peak. It has reached a historical score of 51.54%, and even if it declines afterwards, the lowest day is 29.14%. After such a film scheduling rate is made into a curve chart, many people in the industry are dumbfounded.

In many markets, profit orientation is paramount.

If there were not many people optimistic about the Dongyuanbai project when it was initially launched, a quarter of the production fee he finally got was human investment. After the box office hit the box office on the first day, many investors took the initiative. It's here.

"How many years has it been since there was a film that returned to its capital and started to make a profit in a day or two?" Volkswagen is one of the three oldest film companies in the film industry. Even so, paying attention to the annual movie box office is also one of his regular homework. In the report sent by his subordinates, the good data of "Mystery Visitor" seems to be faked.

"The producer wants some money?" Gao Wenxuan flicked his tongue and made an unintelligible voice: "Let them take advantage of it again..."

In terms of the box office in the first week alone, even under the contract profit distribution, it allowed Dianjin to withdraw a lot of cash flow. This amount is huge, even in his opinion, it is a big project. Dianjin is a competitor of Volkswagen, and it is cheap. Let others pick it up but I can't even drink the soup. This kind of mood can no longer be simply described as unhappy.

But he didn't allow himself to indulge in this emotion for too long, he grabbed the phone and dialed immediately: "Go and find out, does Dong Yuanbai have any follow-up production plans for this movie?"

If "Mystery Visitor" only attracted the attention of the public and other companies after the box office broke out on the first day, Dianjin, as the producer, paid much more attention to this project. Almost no one slept on the night of the first day of release. Okay, especially Li Wenyue who insisted on winning this project - he is also the producer of "Mystery Visitor" - he couldn't sleep at [-] o'clock in the morning the next day. Had a little meeting.

"The box office has already exceeded [-] million in two days. As long as the film critics and audience responses do not collapse, the profitability index of this project can already be predicted." At the meeting, Li Wenyue couldn't bear his excitement. It also helps a lot with future job prospects.

The National Day file has always been a popular schedule that all film companies pay close attention to. The annual box office awards are often produced on the National Day file. Except for the Spring Festival file, there are few other movies that can have an impact on the National Day file. Therefore, "Mystery Visitor" encountered this year. The opponents are all very strong. In addition to the blockbusters imported from overseas with productions of over [-] million yuan, there are also many domestic blockbusters that have received wide attention. It is beyond the expectations of many people to be able to break through the siege of this group of strong players.

"However, the cost of the movie still needs to be re-estimated." The top leader of Dianjin also attended the meeting: "Is Zhao Ying a friendly star? A few more points."

"But apart from this, other people's pay is fine." Someone next to him answered: "The others are not first-line, and the pay is average. What kind of famous role do you need to play?"

"Speaking of leading roles, the one who made the most money this time is the one playing Yin Xu, right? Zhu Jue?"

"Ah, yes, yes, yes! I went to see it too! That Zhu Jue is on par with Zhao Ying! How much did you pay for it?" Li Wenyue was the one who asked this question.

These figures had long been engraved in Li Wenyue's mind, and he reported it immediately: "140 million, 3% of the box office revenue."

The leader looked at him in surprise: "Is there a box office bonus? Is he still a newcomer?" Not only that, but the price of 140 million is quite high among newcomers. Generally, the salary for a newcomer's first film is only a few hundred thousand. There are very few who can reach hundreds.

Li Wenyue spread his hands: "He is to's newcomer to pay attention to this year. To personally sent someone to negotiate this contract, and the acting was really good. No one could compare to him in the audition screening. The director would rather be short than excessive, so I still signed it. Come down." At the time, I felt a bit of pain, but now everyone is rejoicing that Zhu Jue's contribution to "Mysterious Visitor"'s final box office hit cannot be ignored. Without him, Zhao Ying and others may still be able to make this movie a reality. It is rare for a movie to be a genre movie, but without the sparks and tension between the two leading actors, the viewability of this movie will be weakened a lot.

The leader naturally understands this truth: "We still made money, have you asked Dong Yuanbai? Do you want to develop a sequel?"

Li Wenyue: "He's still thinking about it."

"You are his good friend. If you pay more attention to this matter, you might be able to develop an evergreen series, which is good for you, me, and Dong Yuanbai."

Whether it is a phone call or a meeting, these days, it may not be uncommon in many companies.

Even for a big company like Volkswagen Dianjin Dream, an evergreen money-making series is very valuable. The benefits of mystery films in this regard are also self-evident. As long as the story does not collapse too much and the reputation is established, it can almost It has been done for several years, ten years, ten years, and decades. There are many cases in history where the authors of the original works have passed away for decades, but movies and TV series are remade year after year.

What's more, the reasoning film is different from other types of films. It is essentially a personal hero movie. As long as the leading role is confirmed, other people only need to have good acting skills, and they don't need to care about their fame. A lot of expenses can be reduced in terms of actors' remuneration up.

This kind of benefit does not require special department research. In the minds of these big names, a second or two is enough for them to draw a conclusion.

"Contact with Zhu Jue more, see if their company has any plans for the next step, and try to include him in our movie." After the meeting, the leader did not forget to tell Li Wenyue.

Li Wenyue agreed with a serious attitude, but couldn't help feeling emotional in his heart.

In this circle, it is the place where there is the least lack of miracles and the most lacking of miracles. How long has it been since he has seen each film turn the world upside down?

The Zhu Jue I saw when I auditioned with Dong Yuanbai, the Zhu Jue who auditioned with other second- and third-tier actors, I am afraid that my whole life will change after this movie——

※※※

"...When your story is told too well, it is easy for people to ignore the personal characteristics of the characters in it, but fortunately, this rule did not work in "Mystery Visitor", all the actors in it even appeared on the roadside with only one action All the actors have perfectly integrated their personal characteristics and role settings, and performed vividly, and among this group of people, the most impossible to ignore is undoubtedly The two leading actors, Zhao Ying, are as good as ever, but Zhu Jue is full of surprises. Imagine, if there is no Zhu Jue, maybe this is still a rare good movie, but without him and Zhao Ying's handover, With hearty and intense rivalry, can this film still be so good?"

"...Okay, that's enough..." Zhu Jue couldn't bear it anymore, and finally interrupted Ji Jing's impassioned speech.

Ji Jing got stuck on half a word and almost choked to death, with a puzzled look on his face: "Ah? What's the matter?"

Zhu Jue looked at him with unlovable eyes, and asked what's the matter, film reviews can still be secretly refreshing when you read them yourself, but it's extremely embarrassing to be read by him in such a speech tone, okay? !

One or two articles are fine, this is the first few articles!Today they were going to discuss about Kenny Pegg's new movie, who knew that Ji Jing had been doing nothing since he came in, and spent all his time searching for movie reviews and reading aloud.

Frightened by Zhu Jue's eyes, Ji Jing had no choice but to stop regretfully, flipping through one article after another, looking more enjoyable than Zhu Jue himself.

Although it's not that his subordinates have brought out such an overnight star, but that was many years ago, and those stars have long since become superstars. He has not enjoyed the effect of a dark horse born from heaven for a long time. pass.

It's still the taste in my memory, it's still so cool~

Although "Legend of Heroes" was released before, there were a lot of positive comments on the Internet, but few came from professionals, and most of them were comments from netizens. But how can it be as cool as the acting skills that are constantly being praised by film critics?Even netizens are saying that his acting is good, and his good face is the icing on the cake. He is an actor who would not want to get such an honor. The artist's mood controller he brought is too effective, he can only feel good for him Well~ "Okay, let's talk about business." Zhu Jue stepped forward decisively and turned off the computer screen, forcing his manager to get back on track.

Ever since "Mysterious Visitor" was released, the situation they faced had been soaring from the ground to the sky. The crew who showed kindness to him had been upgraded by more than one or two levels. He even saw several crews who had appeared on Zhao Ying's table before. name.

Compared with Kenny Pegg, these books are more realistic. Zhu Jue originally predicted that today he would spend a lot of time on comparison and screening, but Ji Jing said: "Those are nothing interesting, let's just say yes." Ni Pegg."

Zhu Jue looked at him in surprise, and directly rejected all other invitations?That's not like Ji Kyung's character.

Ji Jing showed him a smile of "someone in the court is good to be an official": "I have a piece of news, I haven't had time to inform you yet."

Zhu Jue: "?"

"It is said that Kenny Pegg was specially invited to watch your premiere." Ji Jing emphasized the two words of invitation: "After watching it, I was very interested in you, and contacted us the next day."

Zhu Jue: "Then?"

Ji Jing laughed a little... mean: "Accordingly, I should be the one to talk, but I was cut off halfway, but I looked at the person and thought it would be good to be cut off, so I didn't care about it." .”

"Then I heard the news before leaving the house in the morning. Congratulations. Your role has gained several positions. You will go to a makeup audition next month. Are you happy?"
