A different director [entertainment circle]

Only at this time did the audience see clearly the names on these archways. These names were the many traitors of the human race that Wen Ji had killed in the process of being hunted down.Because it was these human traitors who told the Yaozu the news about Hou Wenji and Sunset Bow, which put Houyi's family in danger repeatedly.

Who knew that at this time, the director of the film would suddenly tell you that these traitors of the human race actually have other hidden secrets?

At this time, the film used a montage technique to tell this unknown past event.

Indeed, among the human race, there were indeed some people who took refuge in the more powerful monster race, and there were also people who harbored ill intentions towards the "Sunset Bow".But there are not so many people with bad intentions. If human beings were not united enough, they would have been slaughtered by the monster race long ago.

It turns out that from the very beginning, some monks served as "secret agents", which is "undercover" in the modern sense.Their task is to gain the trust of the Yaozu at all costs, and then destroy the plans and alliances of the Yaozu.

In order to make the whole plan seamless, the strong human beings who made the plan did not disclose this plan to the Houyi family, even if they sacrificed some of the meritorious human family.

For a long period of time, the Houyi clan did harbor resentment towards human beings, and the number of human "spies" who died at their hands was quite a lot.

Later Wenji didn't know about these plans at the beginning, but in the long-term pursuit, the clever Hou Wenji discovered many clues—why he could always get a slight chance to escape, why the other party showed that he shouldn't behave several times. arrogance and self-confidence.

Following the clues, No. 1 finally determined that these human traitors were actually spies.Later, Wen Ji let go of some "secret spies" because of a momentary soft-heartedness, but made them suspected by the demon clan.

In order to completely gain the trust of the monster race, these "spies" of the human race finally chose to use death as proof. Only in this way can they convince the monster race of their rebellion and that their attack plan has not been revealed.

After the end of the final war, Wen Ji learned of all this, and set up a memorial tablet for the "spies" who died in the hands of Hou Yi's family, as a sacrifice to the spirit in heaven.

"Everything we do is the continuation of the human race. If our soul returns to the earth, we will protect the human race for thousands of years!"

When seeing this, many viewers were already in tears.The suffering and life of human beings are all displayed in front of them, and all efforts are just to survive.

At the beginning, the audience thought that "Hou Yi" was just a special effects film and a commercial film. No one thought that the film would be sublimated at the last moment.

It is no exaggeration to say that the recovery of this foreshadowing is the finishing touch, making the theme of the whole movie more vivid.

After the current patriarch inserted the incense into the censer and dyed it into a wisp of green smoke, the screen gradually became dark, and "Hou Yi" also temporarily came to an end.

After reading it, Xie Beiyang and Qin Yan looked at each other, they understood each other's eyes, "Hou Yi" was a success, and Hua Yan was a success too!

When the movie officially came to an end, the entire screening hall was extremely excited. Although the response was very quiet just now, everyone immediately became excited and became extremely noisy.

Everyone began to discuss the plot of the movie just now. Who would have thought that there would be such a reversal in the end?

I have to say that everyone was very happy to see such an excellent movie on the first day of the Lunar New Year.Perhaps "Hou Yi" is not a traditional Chinese New Year film that is full of smiles and family joy, and even after watching it is a bit heavy, and many viewers shed tears on the scene, but the quality of the film is beyond doubt.

Although Qin Yan and Xie Beiyang had already watched the finished film in the screening hall of Huayan Company, they still enjoyed watching the film just now.

Director Qin can watch a movie for the second time in a short period of time, even if it is "related" with Qin Yan, it is enough to prove its quality.

More importantly, the reaction of the audience at the scene completely let go of the stone secretly hidden in Qin Yan's heart.

The two of them were going to wait until the audience in the auditorium had almost gone before leaving quietly.

But who knows that although most of the audience on the set are discussing the plot and exchanging thoughts in full swing, they don't have any intention of getting up, they are motionless and stable as Mount Tai.

Because more and more people now know the existence of movie easter eggs, especially in Qin Yan's previous movies, there is an easter egg that is enough to bring surprises at the end of each movie.

How do you think "Hou Yi" has been successful now, if the director is not stupid, he will definitely make a sequel.And the most important thing is that in the second half of the movie, there are still many plots that can continue to be expanded. Knowing that the strength of Yaozu is obviously stronger.

At the same time, "Houyi" is obviously a story based on the mythology system of the Hua Kingdom. Many familiar mythological elements can be seen in the movie, such as Buzhou Mountain, Emperor Jun, Wu Clan, Candle Dragon, the Three Great Religions, etc. .Some mythological elements may be fleeting, but this glimpse is enough to make people think about it.

If the traditional Chinese mythology system continues to unfold, then after the demon clan is destroyed, the human race will become the master of the world. Doesn't this mean that there is still more room for stories to be developed and changed?

If all the traditional myths of Huaguo are reconstructed in this way, everyone will be excited when they think about it.

Sure enough, as they thought, the final battle between the monster race and the human race was written in the easter egg of "Hou Yi". It seems that Huayan Company does have a follow-up plan.

Everyone was in their seats, and Qin Yan and Xie Beiyang were particularly embarrassed by their reluctance to take a stand.

However, Xie Beiyang suddenly asked curiously: "Has Zhao Guangren already written the script after "Hou Yi"? Why did he suddenly include such a plot?"

As a witness of the script competition that year, Xie Beiyang certainly knew that "Hou Yi" was a script that Zhao Guangren had discarded, and it did not form a complete system.The Huaxia mythical universe that everyone wants has not yet been written.

Qin Yan said helplessly: "I only heard about the easter eggs, and the script after that didn't start writing at all. Guo Zitao said that he wanted to pay tribute to me, and he wanted to learn from me and add an egg at the end of the movie. Easter egg, this is why Zhao Guangren wrote such a small plot temporarily."

Speaking of the word "tribute", Qin Yan was also a little embarrassed.Although it seems natural for Guo Zitao to pay tribute to him at his current status, he is not yet 30 and has not retired yet!Using the word "tribute" now feels a bit out of character.

But last night, Guo Zitao also sent a message to Qin Yan: "Director Qin, please be sure to stick around until the end of the show. There is an easter egg that I salute you."

It can only be said that Qin Yan had a great influence on Huayan Company and the three young directors. Even in things like putting eggs, everyone is consciously imitating and learning from Qin Yan.

Finally, after a lot of effort, Qin Yan and Xie Beiyang left the cinema.On the way back, there was some excitement between the two of them.

This feeling is different from the feeling that Qin Yan and Xie Beiyang made a movie by themselves.Making movies by yourself is like raising your own son. If their sons are recognized by others for their excellence, they will have a sense of pride like their parents.

If there are any deficiencies, they can still objectively evaluate and criticize.

But seeing the quality of "Hou Yi", they feel that they seem to have cultivated a group of successors, and it is the teacher's joy to see the students' titles on the gold list.

There are too many things to praise about "Hou Yi", needless to say about special effects, screenwriting, director and director. They are inseparable from Qin Yan. It can be said that without Qin Yan, even the project "Hou Yi" would definitely be worthless. Impossible to be born.

What is more worthy of recognition is the performance of the actors in "Hou Yi"!

Xie Beiyang is very proud of the protagonist group including the male number one, not only because they are all contracted actors of Galaxy Brokerage Company, but also because of the changes that Galaxy has encountered in the past two years.

The past few years have not been easy for Yinhe Company, because Xie Beiyang, one of the mainstays, has been out of acting for the past two years, and has not acted, nor has he had any commercial endorsements.In addition, there are really not many young actors in the Galaxy who can afford the box office and the market.

No matter how Qin Yan guides the film market to focus on acting skills and film quality, human nature makes the film and television market attract the most attention from the new generation of young actors, and they can effectively drive the increase in box office.

Coupled with the fact that Huayan Company has been dormant for the past two years, all the pressure of Yinhe Brokerage has been placed on Xi Qianqian.

In fact, as early as the beginning of its establishment, Galaxy Brokerage Company signed a large number of young actors, basically screening resumes one by one from professional colleges and universities in China, and then Qin Yan, Xie Beiyang, Xi Qianqian The three interviewed in person.

After training for several years, I arranged to play some supporting roles in some movies and TV dramas, gradually honed my acting skills, accumulated resources, and gradually gained some fame.

Originally, according to the original plan, these young actors were pushed to the front stage during Xie Beiyang's rest period, which happened to be their rapid rise period.

But the problem is that although the relationship between Qin Yan and Xie Beiyang was recognized at that time, and it was confirmed that the two were not banned, in fact the entire market was not particularly optimistic about the future of the two.

Who knows when Qin Yan will come back to make a movie.Moreover, the relatively conservative passer-by audience will subconsciously resist whether the relationship between the two can be accepted, and whether they will find it indecent.These are all questions.

Especially with the promotion of time, Huayan Company has never approved a large-scale film project, which makes people doubtful.Originally, Qin Yan wanted to see how many companies were still dissatisfied with him, and they were trying to lure snakes out of their holes.

It's just that his plan has made many young actors anxious. They don't want to be like old actors who earn tens of thousands of wages for a show and live a tight life.

These days, young actors are in charge. Many actors who are not as good as them in appearance and acting skills can earn millions of dollars in a TV series, and they work as supporting roles in Huayan Company, and their annual income is only more than [-] yuan.

Xie Beiyang and Xi Qianqian were indeed the actors they envied, and they were indeed the apex of the pyramid in their hearts, but they were not in the mood to wait any longer.

They couldn't bear the "dream" in their hearts. Starting from the rumor that "Qin Yan was taken care of by Xie Beiyang", they began to actively contact outside brokerage companies, and the same/bed/different dream was nothing more than that.

In the end, in addition to Sun Yunhe and a large number of Hua Yanyuan's high-level exodus, Dianjinmeng also directly used money to poach a large number of young actors from Galaxy Brokerage.

This is the new generation that Yinhe Brokerage Company has worked hard to cultivate for several years. Everyone can see that these actors will definitely occupy a place on the screen in the future, and they have been poached like this.

This incident caused a lot of trouble in China at the time, and at the same time, some people directly pointed out that Yinhe Brokers was too conceited to leave such a big dragon behind.

Because Dian Jinmeng successfully pried away several potential actors with only a small amount of compensation, even the leading actors and actresses of "New New Era" and some supporting roles who participated in the filming of "Earth Fortress" were among them.

In fact, poaching is relatively common in the industry, and the industry has a set of very mature coping strategies.Otherwise, after working so hard for so many years and giving you various resources, you suddenly have to change jobs. How many companies can accept this kind of loss?

The company is not for charity, so whether it is a singer, actor, star or other contracted artist in the industry, the easiest way is to set up a super high liquidated damages.

Young actors may only earn 10,000+ yuan a year, but if they have to pay a termination fee, it is often 10 or 20 times the price.

But the liquidated damages of Galaxy Brokerage Company is far lower than the average level in the industry!

This led to Dianjinmeng Company poaching 7 actors, and finally compensated Galaxy Brokers for more than 1000 million.

This number seems relatively large, but it is really nothing to the few young actors who have been pried away.If it is placed in other brokerage companies, the compensation cannot be less than 3000 million!

Even this is because Yinhe, like Huayan, has special preferential treatment for newcomers in the industry. The income of young actors is much higher than the industry standard, and this figure is finally multiplied by a coefficient.

It is enough to imagine how low Galaxy's default compensation coefficient is.

When Xie Beiyang and Xi Qianqian founded the company, this hidden danger was left behind.At that time, Xie Beiyang and Xi Qianqian were still young. They had just finished filming "Laughing Jianghu" and had never seen any betrayal in the industry. They just felt that life was not easy for young actors, so they set a compensation ratio that could be called "benevolent". .

If Qin Yan was still making movies, even if the liquidated damages were 0, these actors would not be willing to leave Galaxy Brokerage Company, they showed it better than anyone else.

Everyone is saying that Qin Yan, Xie Beiyang, and Xi Qianqian are too confident to have such a situation. At the beginning, they laughed at the trio severely, so that this also led to the emergence of the Galaxy Brokerage Company. Talent gap.

The three of them discussed this issue in private before, and Qin Yan jokingly asked Xi Qianqian if she would regret it.

Proud as Xi Qianqian, how could she regret it, she said: "What is there to regret, I want them to know that I can support the Milky Way by myself!"

Xie Beiyang also proposed to go back to Galaxy to help out for a while, no matter if he is making a movie, appearing in a few variety shows, or even just accepting a few interviews or endorsements, as long as he shows his attitude to the outside world in a high-profile way, the situation of Galaxy will be better. a lot of.

However, Xi Qianqian directly rejected Xie Beiyang's help, especially domineering:

"If you want to rest, take a good rest for a while. Don't play too much. When I went to study abroad and took a rest, you were able to support Huayan and the Milky Way. Now it's my turn, can't you?"

Qin Yan and Xie Beiyang could only accept Xi Qianqian's "asylum" with a smile. They did what they wanted to do in the past two years, while Xi Qianqian worked crazily outside.

In the past three years, Xi Qianqian has made three movies and one TV series, all of which are well-deserved heroines!This workload is scary enough, and more importantly, these four works are of high quality as always!

Although the three films failed to bring Xi Qianqian the best actress of the three major film festivals, they won two of the three Chinese awards; and the only TV series, which is also the first time Xi Qianqian participated in a TV series, He directly won the throne of the queen of the year!

In addition to film and television works, Xi Qianqian also participated in some variety shows.Xi Qianqian is not following the route of a sweet actress, so it stands to reason that there should not be so many crazy movie fans.

However, Xi Qianqian's dominance and strength made her capture countless ministers. Now Xi Qianqian is referred to as "Queen Xi" and "Sister Qian", which is unique in the circle and cannot be copied.

Not to mention the endorsement, because of Xi Qianqian's temperament, many international brands have approached Xi Qianqian.Although the number is small, they are all international first-line brands.

Someone calculated Xi Qianqian's endorsement fee, and got a figure that ordinary people could not even imagine, and this was the endorsement fee that Xi Qianqian obtained under the premise of extreme restraint and selection of brands.

Among the younger generation of actresses, Xi Qianqian is a well-deserved first sister!She really supported the Galaxy Brokerage Company by herself.

The performance of the few actors who left Huayan Company is indeed good, and this matter is often brought up by the media.

"Leaving Galaxy Brokerage Company is undoubtedly the most important decision in the lives of these actors", "Galaxy's stupidest decision", "An actor becomes a boss, it's just a mess."

But now that the box office of "Hou Yi" is rising steadily, these people will definitely regret it.

After Qin Yan and Xie Beiyang returned home, they turned on the computer and checked the Internet.Sure enough, there are already the first batch of film reviews about "Hou Yi" on the Internet. Although there are not many film reviews, the ratings are far higher than the other films released in the same period, as high as a terrible 9.0 points!

This is a particularly important work of Huayan Company. As long as "Houyi" achieves a good result, even if Qin Yan never makes movies again, Huayan can still gain a foothold.

The relationship between Huayan Company and Weiweidou is clear to everyone. Huayan can and has reason to manipulate the rating of Weiweidou.

But as long as it is the movie score that appears on Weird Bean, the audience will not doubt it!This is the terrible credibility of Strange Flavored Beans, and it is also the result of countless money and painstaking efforts!

You must know that when Qin Yan was away for the past two years, Weiweidou was also suppressed by many domestic film and television companies.Who made the scoring mechanism of Weird Beans too fair, so fair that they have no way to cover up and publicize.

Many bad movies originally wanted to use publicity and lineup to cheat the box office in the early stage, but as soon as it was released, Weiweidou gave a very real score, how could the movie side accept it!

Moreover, Weiweidou has also made a particularly big breakthrough in the algorithm in recent years, withdrawing from a "similar scoring" mechanism.

In this mode, you will only see ratings from users who like you.

Aesthetics is indeed something that varies from person to person. Some people like love stories, and some people like deep themes. This is understandable.Many times, the point of contention is that the other party must accept their own aesthetics, which will lead to mutual dislike of both parties.

Now that the "similar rating" system has been withdrawn, every viewer can see more suitable film reviews, and will not step on thunder again.

Moreover, this function is closely related to the user's previous viewing and rating records. In order to make their own tastes better calculated, many viewers have also started their own journey of replenishing points, so that the activity of Weird Dou can be raised to a higher level!

Avoiding the rigidity of professional film review websites can be said to kill two birds with one stone.

Millions of dollars have been invested in the research and development of these algorithms, which has really made Weiweidou the most credible and versatile movie platform.

However, film companies don't want their films to be so nakedly dissected in the eyes of the audience. They are eager to take the opportunity to regain the right to rate the film quality, so that they can overturn the clouds and turn the tide.

Everyone knows that Weiweidou has always insisted on its professional level, regardless of cost and profit or loss.

So even if the score of "Houyi" is as high as 9.0, no one suspects that you are cheating for personal gain.

Just seeing the ratings, many viewers have already decided to watch "Hou Yi" during the Chinese New Year.

And this is just the beginning. In fact, "Hou Yi" was not as good as other major productions in the same period in terms of pre-sale box office and film screening rate at the beginning.

When the first day of the Lunar New Year was over, the attendance rate of "Hou Yi" had reached an exaggerated 80%, far ahead of the movies of the same period, and ranked third with a box office of 1700 million on the first day. The discussion was full of applause!

Faced with such an exaggerated attendance rate and evaluation, the screening rate of "Hou Yi" did not change the next day. It is obvious that some companies are boycotting "Hou Yi".However, for three consecutive days, the filming rate of "Hou Yi" is still rising, and there are more voices on the Internet.

"We want to watch "Hou Yi"!"

"If there is no "Hou Yi", I will not watch other movies."

"Do you dare to arrange the films to be fair!"

Now the major theaters really can't bear the pressure, Hua Yan must succeed if he wants to succeed.Even if Huayan rises, it will be screened in their theaters, whoever wants to boycott it, whoever will boycott it.They don't care, they can't make trouble with money.

From the fourth day of the fourth day of the lunar new year, "Hou Yi" has jumped to the top of the list. Everyone knows that "Hou Yi" has already been booked to be the box office champion of the Spring Festival.

Everyone knows how important "Houyi" is to Huayan Company. From a certain perspective, it is even more exciting than Qin Yan and Xie Beiyang's comeback to make a movie. Huayan Company and the Huaguo film market are booming.

This means that the set of film production theories that Qin Yan and Hua Yan Company have always adhered to is correct.

Movies don't need very popular actors, and they don't need to create all kinds of gimmicks. As long as the quality of the movie is good, it can be recognized by the market.

Furthermore, apart from Qin Yan, as long as other directors can focus on the movie itself, then Huaguo can also make excellent special effects movies and get a satisfactory box office.

It is this kind of circle-breaking effect that makes the word-of-mouth of "Hou Yi" constantly brewing,

By the end of the seventh day of the Lunar New Year, the cumulative box office of "Hou Yi" had reached 4.3 million yuan, making it No. 1 in the Spring Festival file.The film scheduling rate has completed the counterattack from No.4 to No.1, as high as 45%.

Some people are even speculating whether "Hou Yi" will hit the terrible records Qin Yan once set.

The doubts of Qin Yan and Hua Yan on the Internet have completely disappeared. How much they laughed wildly before, but now they are so nervous, worried that Hua Yan will retaliate against him.

Although Qin Yan stays at home recently, he calls every day. There are happy news from Ding Chang, thanks from the main creative team of "Hou Yi", and many people in the industry who haven't contacted Qin Yan for a long time.

This time Qin Yan did not go missing again, which made many people vaguely feel that something was wrong.

Xie Beiyang suddenly said to Qin Yan who had just hung up the phone: "How is it, do you feel itchy? Or are you getting old and ready to abdicate?"

Qin Yan showed a particularly confident smile:

"I will not let these young people surpass me, my record should be surpassed by myself!"
