How China Entertainment was developed

Chapter 596 [Residence in the Fuchun Mountains]: I said I was benchmarking against [Mission: Impossible], do you really believe it?

If Teng Huatao's anxiety and excitement are one, then Guo Fan's anxiety and excitement are ten, or even a hundred.

Because compared with Teng Huatao, who already has the hit performance of "Love Is Not Blind", has a family background, and is a directing graduate.

Guo Fan is much worse.

I graduated from the Law Department of Nanhai University, which is not close to the film and television industry.

After graduating in 2003, I casually found a job as a program packaging supervisor at the Asian Music Center, and that was how I got connected with the film and television industry.

Then in 2007, he switched jobs to a film and television company with a very formal name. A year later, he made a comic prequel to the movie "Kung Fu King". In 2009, he was admitted to the Management Department of Kyoto Film Academy.

In 2011, after I co-produced the movie "Li Xianji Li Xianji", because the male protagonist of the movie was Prince Long, and at that time, Chenglong signed a contract with Longbow Film and Television, and he also wanted to get his son, Prince Long, to be involved.

The result~

Prince Long did not come in, but Guo Fan was spotted by the person in charge of the director training program of Longbow Films and signed in.

Guo Fan always felt that he would have to stay at Longbow Film and Television for four or five years, or even seven or eight years, before he could be qualified to participate in project production and directing.

Unexpectedly, in just two years, he would be directly responsible for Zhang Nan's project.

Although they are multiple assistant directors who assist the director,... the assistant directors are also directors!

Zhang Nan looked at the tense mood of the two people. Under his gaze and the passage of time, Zhang Nan became more and more nervous. After coughing, he said:

“First I have to explain to you why I started this new project.

The superficial reason is to work hard for the multi-faceted development of mainland film themes and the rise of Chinese-language films.

But the underlying reason is very simple. My current situation in Hollywood is temporary glory and long-term instability.

Most of the series that I currently have to support my status are in cooperation with Hollywood giants, which is very restricted. Even the "Rebirth" series, due to the specialization and serious financialization of the project, I can actually control it. The proportion is very small.

Therefore, there is an urgent need to rely on the mainland film market as the basic base to create a new series. This is why this series of "The Wandering Earth" was planned. If nothing unexpected happens, the investors of this film will be led by Longgong Film and Television, and China Film. and Magic City Film Group also participated in the investment. "

After Zhang Nan said these somewhat convoluted words, Teng Huatao and Guo Fan were both a little confused.

But soon the two of them understood the meaning of Zhang Nan's words, but... they didn't quite believe Zhang Nan's statement that his situation in North America was not good.

From the mid-1990s to now, when you have been so popular, you have never been lonely. Can you call it temporary glory and long-term instability?

No one in Hollywood has ever been more prosperous and stable.

Let’s talk about the restricted aspects.

Given how high your salary is, let alone Hollywood, you have to be restricted even if you work in the Mainland.

It's just that the two of them thought so in their hearts, but they said the exact opposite: "Yes, yes, yes."

Without it.

Now it is clear to the two of them who is the boss, who is the boss, and who has the final say.

Afterwards, Zhang Nan told the two of them about the preparations for the [Wandering Earth] project, and then let them leave.

Looking at the backs of the two of them, Zhang Nan was a little unsure whether his operation was correct or not.

Because after Guo Fan in the original space and time used [The Wandering Earth 1] to blast open the door to mainland science fiction films, Teng Huatuo used [Magic City Fortress] in a timely manner to weld the door to mainland science fiction films shut. .

Now that the two of them are together, will there be a situation where Teng Huatuo first welds the door, and then Guo Fan collides, resulting in a bloody outcome?

Zhang Nan shook his head.

I don’t think so. After all, the shots for this project are almost finished, so just take photos, and he’s still watching.

And if you don’t do this, there is really nothing you can do.

Guo Fan is too young now and has little experience. Among the few mainland directors he knows.

Xu Zheng has no time to work on "Hypnosis Master". Zhou Xingxing's style is really not suitable, so Teng Hua Tao is his only choice.

Moreover, the combination of Teng Huatuo and Guo Fan is quite suitable.

Teng, who only had one film "Love Is Not Blind", couldn't show off his qualifications in the "Wandering Earth" project starring Guo Fan.

The difference in class between the two is indeed huge, but the difference in class between the two and Zhang Nan is even greater. …

6 month 9 day.

The box office performance of "Chinese Partner", which has been in theaters for almost 20 days, has finally completely weakened. The single-day box office has dropped to less than 5 million yuan.

Then, "Tianji - Fuchun Mountain Residence", jointly invested by Huaying, Media Asia, and Peacock TV, and directed by unknown director Sun Jianjun, with a total investment of 3000 million US dollars and almost 1.7 million yuan in external publicity, held its premiere.

Because Liu Tianwang was intercepted by Zhang Nan and sent to Hollywood in North America to work as a model worker, this time the starring role in "Dwelling in the Fuchun Mountains" was replaced by another one of the Four Heavenly Kings - Guo Tianwang.

Moreover, Guo Tianwang also readily agreed to the invitation to film "Dwelling in the Fuchun Mountains".

Without it.

The male lead role in "Chill" that was originally scheduled for him was cut off by Peng Yuyan under the influence of Zhang Nan.

King Guo, who has lost his chance to become famous, is in urgent need of film contracts.

For "Fuchun Mountain Residence", which is said to be a mainland version project that will compete with "Mission: Impossible", "007" and "006"... and other Hollywood spy series, it is naturally irresistible.

then……

After the filming of the movie was completed, Guo Tianwang knew that his road to fame would probably be long and arduous.

I also understand why the producer of "Dwelling in the Fuchun Mountains" used the term benchmarking.

Because benchmarking is not reaching the standard, if you believe it, you will be fooled.

This is indeed the case, not only Guo Tianwang followed Liu Tianwang's old path and was deceived.

Many mainland viewers were also fooled.

The box office of "Dwelling in the Fuchun Mountains" reached 4964.1 million yuan on the first day, and the box office in the first week was 5124 million yuan.

Of course.

The reason why the box office was so low in the first week is not because mainland audiences woke up early.

The current mainland audience has been fooled by many, but not many have long memories.

This is because "Dwelling in the Fuchun Mountains" is scheduled to be released on Sunday, taking into account the box office of Saturday's zero o'clock screening.

But after the first day, the reputation of "Dwelling in the Fuchun Mountains" began to fall crazily. Due to the speed and intensity of the collapse of reputation, it directly affected the movie's box office.

The box office of the following Monday was 4707.68 million yuan.

The box office of the following Tuesday was 3793.46 million yuan.

The box office of the following Wednesday was 1623.2 million yuan.

The box office of the following Thursday was 1605.03 million yuan.

Even during the three-day weekend, when the mainland film market rebounded due to the holiday, "Dwelling in the Fuchun Mountains" only stabilized its box office on Thursday.

In the last seven days of the second week, the cumulative box office of "Dwelling in the Fuchun Mountains" was 2.06 million.

Including the box office of more than 2.6 million yuan in the first week, "Dwelling in the Fuchun Mountains" has a total box office of million yuan in two weeks and eight days.

It can be said that the fraudulent movie promotion and box office harvesting techniques are implemented very well.

But this kind of operation obviously cannot be sustained for a long time, otherwise it would not be called a fraud.

So in the third week, "Dwelling in the Fuchun Mountains" had not even been shown for ten days, and its single-day box office had already dropped to less than 10 million yuan.

There is no doubt that "Dwelling in the Fuchun Mountains" has no future at the box office. This is something that most film and television practitioners in the mainland can see.

Then Guangxian Pictures released "Fuji Detective" without hesitation.
