China Entertainment's My Artistic Career

Chapter 232
Chen Kexin has been in the limelight in the film and television industry in the past two years.

The two works of "Report of the Name" and "October Siege" also require word-of-mouth reputation and box office. Compared with other Hong Kong directors who are slightly acclimated to the north, he has undoubtedly gradually become one of the leading figures among Hong Kong directors.

This made his wife Wu Junru feel proud but also became a little arrogant. For example, she openly mocked mainland actresses in a show she supported for being willing to do anything to be in the show.

Now that she heard someone claiming that she could defeat her husband, Wu Junru, a big talker, couldn't bear it anymore and she choked:
"Everything is good in the Mainland, but some young people don't know how to respect their seniors who have strong teeth. It's time to learn from them."

"I have watched less movies in the past two years. Do they have any works?"

"Xie Miao? Never heard of it. There were so many people in Xiangjiang in those years that I couldn't even recognize him."

Didn’t you find this entertainment hot spot?All the entertainment reporters present were extremely happy.

Hong Kong media started to take the issue seriously and soon made these remarks into entertainment headlines.

Liu Yifei spoke up for her husband when she saw "Mrs. Chen". As a member of the crew and the director's girlfriend, it was normal for her to say something.

So she first took Xie Miao for a group photo, and then posted it on Weibo with the following text:
"It is with this courageous mentality that we can create better works. Get rid of the bad and keep the good. Come on!"

Her fans below also have various interpretations:

"Go forward bravely and beat the waves ahead to death on the beach."

"It's time to help you test the quality of filmmakers!"

"It's still a flower played by people in Xiangjiang. Open marriage doesn't even require marriage. It's just open. I'm jealous of my real name."

The latter one is purely sarcastic.

Anyway, after this operation, domestic entertainment media and Hong Kong media have new hot topics, and the two movies have also been hyped.

In the film and television industry, July is the real beginning of the summer season.

At this beginning, "Defiant" was the first to land in major theaters.

There are really not a few people who pay attention to this movie, mainly because of the director and the subject matter.

In terms of subject matter, the performance of martial arts films in recent years is indeed not ideal. The slightly better "Detective Dee: The Tongtian Empire" also has some fantasy colors and is not a pure martial arts film.

This time "Defiant" and "Martial Arts" are released at the same time. They need to take a good look at whether this subject has potential for development.

The other is director He Hua. As a new generation director, his first two works have achieved pretty good results, and his first work has exceeded [-] million. He undoubtedly has good development prospects in the commercial field. If he continues along this path, he will definitely Will be welcomed by everyone.

But the second film he chose was a more literary work. Although the box office was good, it still compromised his commercial attributes.

The third work changed direction again, and the style kept changing and could not be defined at all. This made those investment companies a little confused. How to do risk assessment?

He simply doesn't live by these investors, or he has to be nagged to death by these people.

However, if "Defiant" succeeds again at the box office, people will probably flock to his next projects.

As Feng Xiaogang said: "I can shoot anything, and whatever I shoot will do well at the box office."

Although He Hua himself was worried, he was worried that the box office was too poor and the concept of the Blind Man series was aborted.

On the night of the 1st, He Hua and his team started a road show and started circling around BJ's major theaters.

At 2 o'clock in the morning, He Hua, who had just returned home to rest, received the box office statistics from China Film: 1857 million on the first day.

He Hua breathed a sigh of relief. Seeing his appearance, his girlfriend knew that his grades must be good, so she came over to read the message:

"How much?" "1857? Yeah, it worked!" Seeing how energetic she was, He Hua threw the phone to her: "Please answer the text message for me, I'm so sleepy."

Liu Yifei answered her boyfriend's cell phone and said happily: "I'll come, I'll come, you go to bed."

Whether it's this unconditional trust or helping her boyfriend share work, this behavior makes her happy.

Early the next morning, He Hua looked at his girlfriend who was still sleeping, kissed her on the cheek, then got up to wash up, and turned on the computer after washing.

There are already reports on the movie’s box office on the portal website:

"He Hua's new film "Defiant" was released, with a box office of 1900 million on the first day."

"The summer release of "Defiant" has been a hit, igniting the audience's enthusiasm for watching movies."

There are also several comments about the movie that have been trending on Weibo.

The relevant content at the top left He Hua speechless:

"He Hua liked the fan comments late at night. When the fans asked, they found out that Liu Yifei was doing it on his behalf because he fell asleep."

Why do you feel like Weibo officials are driving the car?What do the comments below questioning his inability to do mean?Is Liu Yifei around?You can't come here every day when you're around, it's like an old married couple.

The first-day results of "Defiant" were pretty good. As long as there are no big problems later, it's not a big deal. If it's over [-] million, there's hope. If it's over [-] million, it won't be as good as the movies of the same period.

The film's main creators and friends also posted congratulations on Weibo to celebrate the film's successful start.

Some people are happy but others are sad.

Affected by "Defiant", the results of other films were more or less affected.

Fortunately, "The Founding of the Party" has already exceeded [-] million in box office. It is entering the third week of the movie's screening. The rest is just a grinding effort. And to be honest, people who should watch this kind of gift film will still go to see it. It's just a matter of sooner or later. .

"God of Wealth Inn" is different. It was just a boring pastime for everyone. Now that there are better works, it was quickly abandoned.

So in the first two days, the box office still had 800 to 200 million. Yesterday, it was cut off directly from Bolenggai, and only more than [-] million was taken in.

Bona Yudong was depressed to death. A movie that might have made a small profit was messed up like this.

Han Sanping was also pleasantly surprised, but he remained calm and prepared to see the results later.

On this day, "Martial Arts" also held its premiere press conference in BJ.

The most common question asked by the main creatives such as Chen Kexin, Zhen Zizi, Jin Chengwu, Hui Yinghong, and Tang Wei is about the just-released "Defiant". It is also their fault that they took the initiative to stir up trouble before.

"Director Chen, the investment cost of "Martial Arts" is much higher than that of "Defiant". Are you sure you can beat them at the box office?"

Star America claims to have invested over [-] million in the film, but everyone knows that there can't be so many, it's just for publicity, but even if it's only half of this amount, it's still two films of the cost of "Defiant."

"Director Chen Kexin is a senior director, and the leading actors are international celebrities such as Zhen Zizi and Jin Chengwu. We have absolute confidence and certainty," the person in charge of Xingmei said.

"Based on the first-day performance of "Defiant", its total box office is very likely to exceed 2 million. What about "Martial Arts"?"

"Guarantee 3 million, sprint to 5 million..."

Chen Kexin showed a confident smile. His first two works have exceeded [-] million even if they encountered strong enemies. He Hua?It's not even a big enemy, so he certainly has confidence.
