China Entertainment's My Artistic Career

Chapter 229
"Honey, get me a new pair of underwear." He Hua shouted from the bathroom.

"It's ready for you and you didn't even mention it, you're so lazy." Liu Yifei complained, but she didn't stop at all. She opened the cloakroom, picked up the change of clothes that had been prepared, and gave it to her boyfriend. .

She opened the bathroom door and put the things directly on the sink: "I put them here for you."

"it is good."

Liu Yifei just came back today. Recently, movie promotions, attending international fashion weeks, shooting fashion magazine covers and other activities have taken up all of her time. Now she can finally take a break.

He Hua also hadn't tasted meat for nearly a month, and he was really greedy, so the two of them felt like a little farewell was better than a newlywed at night, and they had a lot of fun.

After washing, the two of them lay on the bed. Although they called and sent messages or videos almost every day, they still had something to say at this moment:

"Director Du also said that he would film "Single Man and Woman 2"."

He Hua sat up in fright: "You didn't agree, did you?"

"Of course not, I'm not stupid." She also read the movie reviews her boyfriend sent her. She didn't realize it before when filming, but now that netizens have pointed it out, it seems that there is indeed a problem in this regard, which makes her frown a little.

He Hua then lay down and closed his eyes: "It's okay if you don't. Anyway, you don't need to show your face frequently in front of everyone now, so just slow down your pace and make one good movie a year."

"Emmm."

The voice died down.

At the end of April, after more than two months of post-production, the film "Defiant" was finally released.

While He Hua had the finished film sent to the General Administration for review and approval, He Hua arranged for internal preview screenings to let investors see the results.

In the dimly lit room, on the projection screen, as the blind man stabbed the villain Yu Wenying with a knife, the movie also came to an end. After a few minutes, Han Sanping took the lead in applauding:
"Although the story is simple, it is very exciting, especially the action and fighting, which is very well designed."

He Hua nodded: "Our martial arts instructor is Mr. Xu Haofeng. From the beginning, the design was more realistic. Every move pursues practicality and lethality, without any bells and whistles."

However, those people who were brought in by Han Sanping to do film evaluation did not think so: "Audiences in the market may prefer the kind of unrestrained fighting. You can watch "Detective Dee: The Empire of Heaven"."

He Hua chuckled twice and ignored this kind of person. He asked me to talk about the market. If you understand the market, why do you still follow me?

"Is the pace too fast? I feel that the plot is a bit simple and has no connotation."

Huang Lan, who was behind He Hua, couldn't bear it anymore and said:

"This is a commercial movie in itself. What is the connotation? Does a Hollywood blockbuster have any profound connotation? Isn't it enough that the audience is happy and happy watching it?"

A vice president of China Film quickly came out to smooth things over: "What Mr. Huang said makes sense. Whether it works or not depends on the audience and the market. I think it's good that Youhua dares to try it."

He Hua also came close to Han Sanping and whispered: "Director Han, do you think this structure looks like 007? Heroism narrative + body narrative, with some gender narratives interspersed in the process."

Han Sanping's eyes lit up when he heard He Hua's words: "Can it be done?"

He Hua smiled: "I have to try it."

"Okay, let's see if the audience can accept our local model this time." Han Sanping was a little surprised. He thought it was just a simple talent discovery and film investment, but he didn't expect young people to have such ambitions.If it succeeds, maybe it can be turned into a series - the Blind Man series.

"Communicate in time if you need anything, Lao Lin, you will be responsible for the follow-up of this project." Han Sanping assigned the task to the vice president who just smoothed things over.

"no problem."

He Hua also expressed his gratitude in a timely manner.

In the days that followed, Vice President Lin from China Film Group came over to discuss the film’s promotion and distribution with Youhua.

Yang Ming took Youhua's marketing department and publicity department to communicate with them several times, and later made a lot of plans, including how to promote them if their competitors ("Martial Arts") were relatively strong at the same time and were in a weak position. , we must strategically despise the enemy and tactically attach importance to the enemy.

After all, the lineup of Chen Kexin + Universe Dan + Takeshi Kaneshiro sounds quite bluffing.

Vice President Lin saw that Youhua's publicity plan was so detailed, and he felt confident. Coupled with the attention of his leadership, he has been communicating with theaters these days to help the film get more film schedules. He also wants to make this a success in the sky. The fallen performance has been implemented.

But the performance of domestic films in the market in May made them a little worried.

In May, a number of Hollywood movies hit the mainland market.

The first was "Thor", released on the 8th, which took in 5860 million at the box office in its first week; and then "Fast and Furious 5" was even more exaggerated, taking in 6700 million in the first four days of the weekend. The entire market was eaten up by these two films. Most of it.

You must know that the concept of "May Day" has not been hyped yet. This period is generally recognized as relatively indifferent, but they can achieve such results, which makes mainland filmmakers frown, but this is just the beginning.

"Pirates of the Caribbean 20", released on the 4th, was even more fierce, with a box office of 1.3 million in its first week; "Kung Fu Panda 2" was released at the end of the month, and its box office exceeded [-] million in just two days, breaking many records.

These achievements prompted the media to print the words "Wolf is coming" in big words on their headlines.

He Hua was a little worried when he looked at the box office curves of these movies. They were too strong, Ma De. The box office in the second week was higher than the first week, and they could still get 8000 million in the third week. How can they win?

"We only have 20 days, and "Transformers 21" will be released on the 3st. We must be mentally prepared for the subsequent box office results." Vice President Lin reminded at the side.

If you think about it, you know that theaters will definitely cut most of their film schedules and give it to "Transformers 3". They will pay the same regardless of whether it is imported or domestically produced.

"Okay, we will make arrangements." Yang Ming nodded and replied.

Listening to their discussion, He Hua suddenly had some other thoughts in his mind: Are Xing Mei and Chen Kexin also thinking about how to kill them now?
But he really thought too much, and people didn't take him seriously at all.

Martial arts movies are all leftover from director Xiangjiang's work. Chen Kexin doesn't think He Hua can make any innovations at all.

Even if the quality of the video is good, so what? The quality of "Sword Rain" is also very good, so it is not popular in the market.

Both Chen Kexin and Xingmei's boss felt that He Hua was going to be in trouble this time and was destined to be eliminated because he couldn't see the market situation clearly.

And there are not many cards that "Defiant" can play. Unlike them, they have Cosmic Pill. Just hearing the name will tell you how popular Zhen Bullet is now.
