This director is very reliable

Chapter 803 I forgot... (24)

To be honest, "Li Cha's Aunt" is a very good stage play, and likewise, it is also a very vulgar movie!

Shen Changlin has seen the stage play, and the script is adapted from the British drama "Charlie's Aunt", but it obviously borrows the ideas from Gogol's "The Imperial Envoy", depicting the obsequious and funny ugly faces that people show after they misidentify the central character.

Everyone wants to get some benefits from the rich aunt, and wants to use abnormal means to seek benefits by "getting something for nothing".

The biggest problem is the sense of the times...

Use raw rice and cooked rice as a stalk for repeated use!
Whether it's a marriage that women can't control themselves, or the logic of simply and rudely thinking that "cooking raw rice and cooked rice" can solve all problems, it seems out of place from the current point of view!

If you are reluctant to give up this meme, you can change the background to 100 years ago!

In modern society, still playing with raw rice and cooked rice?
Who cares?
There is also a problem with the casting, "Li Cha's Aunt", the aunt should not be so good-looking-the aunt is not all over the country, but she is walking RMB, so no matter how ugly the aunt is, or even a man, there are people Line up to marry her~
You chose Celina Celina...

It's hard to feel like it's about the money...

In addition, there are also problems with the setting of the male protagonist, which is difficult to empathize with.

Generally speaking, the male protagonist of this kind of film should be a humble little person, limited by his identity and class, he has to do something that goes against his nature, but he has a dream in his heart, so it must be positive.

But the male protagonist in "Li Cha's Aunt" really can't see anything positive, it may be because of the actor, I always feel that Huang Cailun's appearance is not suitable for this kind of role...

It would be a different feeling if this play was cast by a handsome young boy with acting skills.

Looking at his face, no matter how the male protagonist interprets the embarrassment and loss of the little character, the audience just can't feel distressed. Combined with the plot, they can draw a conclusion: all the hardships he encountered were all caused by him!
I can't see any distress and helplessness in him after being squeezed by real life. I only see a poor boy who wants to get rich and wants to take a shortcut to get rich.

How can audiences buy such a movie?

The absurdity of farce breaks through the irony of the film itself...

It also almost smashed the signboard of twist.

Now that he knew these problems, why did Shen Changlin agree to Ma Hua's filming of "Li Cha's Aunt"?
First of all, it was Twist's own decision to start filming "Li Cha's Aunt"——"Li Cha's Aunt" is the second highest-grossing and most attended work among Twist's stage plays, and the first is of course "Charlotte's Annoyance"!
Shen Changlin said at the time of the acquisition: Do not intervene in daily management, do not intervene in company project operations...

Secondly, Shen Changlin also felt that it would be good to fall once, as it would slow down their pace...

By the way, Zhang Yiming and Wu Haohan were the original directors of the stage play "Li Cha's Aunt". Zhang Yiming is Zhuang Qiang in "The Richest Man in Xihong City". Later, when it was made into a movie, Wu Haohan was the only director...

It is estimated that it is also one of the reasons for the failure. After all, "Charlotte Annoyance" and "The Iron Fist of Shame" are both directed by two people!
……

In the domestic film market, "The Iron Fist of Shame" directly opened the prelude to the Lunar New Year film.

Or it's better to kick it away.

5 million in the first week, an absolute hit.

Then the other movies released in the same period were unlucky...

Bear the brunt of "Your Name" released by Ray.

Originally, I wanted to avoid the fierce competition in the middle and late stages of the Lunar New Year file, so when it was released at the beginning of the month, I didn't expect to hit a giant wheel!
However, the box office of "Your Name" is not bad, and it won nearly [-] million box office in the first weekend.

Makoto Shinkai's "2.33 Centimeters Per Second" was so amazing. When "Your Name" was released in China, it had already set a record of [-] million US dollars in Japan...

The IP effect is obvious!
Even so, the results of "Your Name" still can't be compared with "The Iron Fist of Shame".

However, Guangming's Wang Changtian wasn't too angry...

Originally, "Your Name" was an approved film, and Light won the copyright with a 'record' 1900 million RMB...

That's right, the mainland copyright of Japanese animation in recent years is so cheap!

1.8 million in the first weekend, and the total box office is likely to exceed 4 million.

Already earned it!
By the way, "Your Name" is the copyright that Shen Changlin recommended Lao Wang to buy!
Changlin Film and Television does not do film approval business...

But he forgot, he doesn't approve films, he can hand them over to Tianxia Entertainment for operation!
So, naturally, he was blocked by Zhao Shan.

It literally means blocking the door - Zhao Shan came to the United States to talk to Sony about the co-development of the superhero "Venom"...

……

Well, Sony didn't have much faith in Venom at first.

Otherwise, the original time and space will not pull Fuji Xun to make it together.

No one expected that this movie would be a hit - the box office in the mainland dropped 2.69 million US dollars, making it the largest box office!

By the way, many people say that "Venom" is so popular because of Marvel...

There is one thing to say, the box office of "Venom", even if it is placed in the second place among the related movies of Marvel, even surpassed the 2 billion yuan of "Avengers 14.64", only a little worse than "Avengers 3" …

——At that time, "Avengers 4" hadn't been released yet!

Marvel's single-player movies have a domestic box office of about [-] million, with fluctuations of no more than [-] million.

"Venom" won 18 billion!

This wave of Zhao Shan belongs to the joint production and production, and is responsible for the promotion in China...

It's definitely a trick.

By the way, she also arranged for Nini to join in as Dr. Dora...

It's not soy sauce, Dr. Dora can be regarded as the promoter of the plot, and it's not shameful for Nini to join.

After the audition was over and the role was confirmed, Zhao Shan took Nini and flew directly to Boston—she wanted to ask Shen Changlin face to face what he thought and why he recommended "Your Name" to Guangguang?

Isn't Tianxia Entertainment worthy of a name?
Of course, she waited until Shen Changlin finished filming today's scene before coming to him...

When Shen Changlin saw Nini, his eyes lit up...

How should I put it, Ana de Armas is really not in line with his aesthetics - no wonder Big Ben remarried Jennifer Lopez (she is Big Ben's ex-girlfriend)...

After a warm hug, the three of them had dinner together.

Zhao Shan first explained the investment of 9000 million U.S. dollars and co-produced three movies with Sony, "Venom", "Jumanji" and "Peter Rabbit"...

Shen Changlin was surprised and asked back: "Three movies? Isn't it one?"

"I brought 1.5 million US dollars this time, and they came up with ten projects, and I chose three!"

"...are they all distributed globally?"

"Of course..." Zhao Shan nodded decisively: "I have worked with Universal before on "Jurassic World", and I know their beating nature very well!"

"That's good!"

Shen Changlin breathed a sigh of relief, and was about to change the subject, but Zhao Shan didn't bother to look left and right, and went straight to the topic: "I heard that you introduced "Your Name" to Wang Changtian?"

"…right."

"Why don't you let us touch?"

Shen Changlin was a little embarrassed: "I'm not worried that the schedule will not be adjusted well... It will collide with our own movie, isn't it..."

Unable to continue, Zhao Shan frowned: "...schedule?"

"Well, I'll be honest...I didn't expect "Your Name" to do so well at the box office..."

Shen Changlin found an excuse that was not very valid...

Actually...he forgot.

Zhao Shan was speechless, and asked sternly: "Approving films is still an excellent weapon to fill the schedule. Are you optimistic about the market of Nippon Animation in China?"

""Your Name" is a big hit, but it cannot represent the prospects of the Chinese market of Niben Animation..."

After thinking about it, he asked back, "Are you sure you want to approve the film?"

　I feel like I'm about to witness history, and I'm scared and looking forward to it...
