my gilded age

Chapter 349: Discussing movies with Mr. San, fighting for a fair chance

"Kexin Chan talks about not being afraid of challenges. "The Call to Fame" is the most thoughtful work."

"International action star Lian Jie talks about the feeling of showing his inner drama for the first time..."

"Heavenly King Andy said that everyone is Chinese..."

"Report of Nomination" has already premiered, and then came the challenge from "Assembly" with great fanfare. Of course, they couldn't be cowed and immediately came to challenge, and the publicity in the media became even more fierce.

Overall, Andy is smarter and can talk well.

At this level, it's almost like breaking up. All media are very happy. The traffic of entertainment news is getting bigger and bigger, and the more advertising money they make.

Moreover, "Assembly" is now released. Although I won't give any spoilers yet, some general things have still leaked out, and many media have begun to make comparisons.

After such a comparison, it turns out that there are many similarities.

They are all historical themes, although the ages are quite different, and they can all be regarded as war-themed movies, and they are all male-dominated, that is, they are all male dramas, and the three giants can be summed up among the men.

Lianjie, Dehua, Jincheng VS Zhang Hanyu, Bai Shiqiu, Deng Chao.

No one thought of this before, but now, after such a summary, everyone finds it very good.

There are countless topics and clouds of war.

……

"Boy, your wings are so strong! I told you not to make any noise, now it's great, it's getting bigger and bigger!"

In China Film and Television, the Third Master is getting angry, and of course the target is Bai Shiqiu who he called over.

Bai Shiqiu listened, with an expression on his face that was even more wronged than Dou E's, and it kept getting deeper.

"You kid, don't give me any acting skills. I know you are the best actor, and your acting is great..." The third master said that he would not rub sand in his eyes.

Bai Shiqiu immediately became even more aggrieved and said: "Third Master, I am really wronged. It was the Wang brothers who pushed me in this matter. If you don't believe me, ask other people at the time and ask for details. I, Bai Shiqiu, dare to swear to God, I have no intention of messing around this time, this time it’s a match, and if it’s a match, it’s a match, everyone should do it according to their own abilities, and I will never do anything else.”

The third master looked at Bai Shiqiu for a long time, and finally softened his tone slightly and said, "You kid, why do you have to get involved with those two guys from the Wang family?"

"It's not what I thought. Uncle Feng insisted on bringing them in. Besides, I was short of money at the time." Bai Shiqiu confessed honestly.

"..." Third Master looked at it for a while, and then asked something else, "Do you really think you can win?"

This question is serious, but Bai Shiqiu is really dumbfounded.

"Of course."

"You kid! Aren't you afraid of me?"

"Third Master, I'm afraid, but I believe that you are a reasonable person. This time we face each other, it will be much better than when I faced Jiang Zhiqiang before. Just look at the quality of the movie this time. Whose movie is better, does this also violate your taboo? I don't believe it, I don't believe it at all."

The third master was very angry after hearing what Bai Shiqiu said.

"Are you trying to catch me with these words? Haha... will I be fooled?"

"Of course Mr. San won't be fooled, but is there something wrong with what I said? Whose movie is better will have a better box office. Isn't this right?"

"You boy..." The third master looked at Bai Shiqiu's fat face and wanted to pinch it to see if he could squeeze out the oil. But at the moment, he had other thoughts in his mind, "Boy, you Tell me, you’ve also seen "The Proposal", right? Do you think this movie is not good?"

When Bai Shiqiu heard this, he knew that he had passed the first level, and a big stone fell to his chest.

"Third Master, I'll just give you a little insight..."

"Stop fucking with these useless things! Say it quickly!" The third master was about to slam the table.

Bai Shiqiu had no choice but to say seriously: "First of all, I have to confirm that "The Call to Action" is definitely a masterpiece. I haven't said it before, from the lineup, from all aspects, it is very good. But..."

The third master knew this but it was the key, and he wanted to screw it up even more.

Bai Shiqiu went on to say: "However, this movie exposed a lot of things, such as the control of big scenes that Hong Kong is not good at, and this movie is also the same. It’s human, but look at the people who fight?”

"How many problems can there be in just fighting? Moreover, they are very careful. I think the filming is pretty good, and there are also martial arts."

"The action scenes in Hong Kong and Taiwan are very strong. I admit this, and we should indeed learn from it. However, this war scene is different from ordinary action scenes, let alone martial arts scenes. More attention must be paid to some details to highlight the kind of action scenes. Atmosphere. Let’s just say that in the play, Pang Qingyun and the three of them joined the Qing army after becoming sworn friends, and they fought against the Taiping Army in the first scene. What was said at the beginning?”

"What?" Third Master was very curious.

At this time, Bai Shiqiu seemed to have entered the state of Feather Fan Lunjin again, "The senior officials of the Qing army will not provide food and grass, let them handle it by themselves."

The third master thought about it for a long time, but he didn't think there was anything wrong with it, so he asked, "So what?"

"Hey, Third Master, you still can't figure this out? We don't have any food or grass, but look at what equipment Pang Qingyun and his men have? They are all neatly dressed, with cotton-padded jackets, pants, shoes, and weapons. They stand there as if they are... Is it reasonable to be the same as the soldiers being reviewed?"

As soon as he said this, the third master suddenly realized.

Bai Shiqiu added, "Not to mention that the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom used three-stage musket shooting. This tactic was very advanced at the time. Let's just talk about this detail. There was no food and grass, but the equipment was very new and neat. Why? Does that make sense? Let me give you an example. During the American Civil War, the famous Battle of Gettysburg was fought. Do you know what caused it? "

"Why?" "Boots, grab boots. Gettysburg is a small place. Robert Lee of the Confederate Army did not attack here at all, but there is a warehouse of boots in this small place. The Confederate Army wanted them very much, so they The looting started, but the Northern Army also saw it, and it slowly developed into a big war. Clothes and shoes were important combat preparation materials in the war, especially in winter. An army that could not even provide food and grass ended up losing clothes and armor. It’s bright, well-equipped with weapons and equipment, and has a strong horse to fight... Third Master, think about it for yourself.”

"Boy, what on earth do you mean? Could it be that someone else besides you would find fault with these details?"

Bai Shiqiu let out a long sigh and said: "Third Master, we are in the Internet age now. There is an explosion of all kinds of information connections. There are many capable people. If people can find some logical flaws in the things they shoot, there will be consequences. The effect. Of course, I can't take perfect pictures. There is no perfect thing in this world. However, you can't make some simple and obvious mistakes, otherwise you won't be able to withstand the test of the market. In fact..."

Bai Shiqiu's 'actually' means that there is still a lot that he has not said.

It should be said that the film "Tou Mingzhuang" is quite good, but there are some very abrupt and confusing things in it, such as the matter of "Tou Mingzhuang" and the transformation of the character Pang Qingyun...Brother Lian Jie said that he would try The inner drama was really failed. It makes people feel that this man was the leader of a group of rebels, and then suddenly wanted to become a good man and kill those children who raped women after breaking the city. This plot arrangement It's very confusing. Pang Qingyun had never mentioned his great ideal before.

The third master finally understood, nodded, and asked again, "Then you mean, the people from Hong Kong and Taiwan are here to cheat money?"

"Third Master, I don't mean that."

"That's not what you mean?"

"It should be said that some Hong Kong and Taiwan filmmakers are also very serious. Let's take Director Chen Kexin. I'm afraid he hasn't found the right path yet. The reason is simple. People from Hong Kong and Taiwan have always regarded themselves as superior to others, and , they were originally in a small market, faced a small audience, and met even fewer capable and expert people. To put it simply, they looked down upon us mainlanders, and they were still the same as before. Ideas, if you shoot any one, we will like it, this is the fundamental reason."

"You kid, you want to sow discord between Mainland China and Hong Kong, and cross-strait relations again?" Third Master laughed and cursed directly.

"How dare I!" Bai Shiqiu quickly shook his head like a rattle.

The third master suddenly woke up, "You boy, after talking for a long time, your relationship is that the "Report of Name" is not as good as your "Assembly Number"?!"

Bai Shiqiu quickly smiled and said: "This just goes back to the original topic. Of course the "Assembly Number" I filmed is ours, but as for which one is better, let's see how the fans buy it. That's the end of it, right? .”

The third master stopped talking and just stared at Bai Shiqiu, but Bai Shiqiu knew that he should have passed the test.

After a long time, the third master said another thing, "A leader actually told me before that he told you to calm down for a while and stop fussing about it. In "Lust, Caution", you were suspected of undermining cross-strait relations. Do you know that? "

"It's unjust." Bai Shiqiu looked like he was about to cry but had no tears.

"Fortunately, I blocked them all, but you kid is so ungrateful that you come to fight me. Tell me about it."

"Third Master, thank you, but movies belong to movies."

Bai Shiqiu is a tough guy, and he didn't let go until the end, but the third master finally admitted it. What this guy said makes sense, and Hong Kong and Taiwan...

"Is Master Xing's film okay?"

"It should be no problem. Mr. Xing is very rigorous and serious in filming."

"Well, I'll give you some good news."

"What?"

When the two people said this, their faces seemed to be reconciled, and this time, it was really good news.

"The Japanese are very interested in your "Red Cliff War", but they can't afford [-] million."

Bai Shiqiu understood as soon as he heard that "Red Cliff War" had gone overseas and could be paid for, but it could not be sold for [-] million. His face showed disappointment at that time, "Third Master, you are not sticking to your principles. .”

"You boy!" The third master was so angry, but he still said: "It sold for 500 million US dollars. This figure is already very impressive. Back then, the old version of the Three Kingdoms was only sold for 300 million..."

Bai Shiqiu was happy in her heart, but she was still unhappy, "Too little! Third Master, for your ability, I originally thought that [-] million was the bottom line."

"You stinky boy!" The third master pretended to hit him.

"Hehe..." He, Lao Bai, quickly put on a smile, "How much can our Red Star share?"

"You, hahaha..." This little monkey, the Third Master really didn't know whether he was laughing with anger or laughing gas, "I deducted some personal tax, of course it's half and half, you can add it up yourself."

What was originally a tense conversation has now turned into a money-sharing meeting.

The conversation has been thoroughly discussed, and the stage of fair competition has been created. The third master should not use other means. Bai Shiqiu only speaks with the movie. As for the external hype, provoking and clamoring each other, leave him alone. .

……

"The Letter of Entitlement" premiered on the 14th, and after that it was released to overwhelming numbers, with almost all major theaters showing this film.

A total of more than a thousand copies were released, including more than 650 film copies and more than 370 digital copies. This is the highest number in the history of our Chinese films.

On the first day, the box office exceeded 1000 million in six hours, and it exceeded 8000 million on the same day, which can be said to be outstanding among the others.

But six days later, the box office data was 1.1 million.

This data seems a bit strange. It is said to be very strong, but it seems to be close to something. Faced with this data, what I think about the most is the third master.

Could it be that this guy Bai Shiqiu really got it right and can't stand the test?

On December 12, "Assembly" premiered.

　Thank you everyone!
　　Well, it is indeed a little late, but there is really a special reason today. There was a power outage at Hei Che’s house. It was a sudden blackout. Hei Che’s code was halfway through, but it was all over. He had to take a taxi to find an Internet cafe. It is no exaggeration, a large black area. Huhu, it turns out that this is the time. In addition, this chapter is indeed a special situation. If there is anything wrong, please point it out and correct it. After all, it is in an Internet cafe. I ask for your understanding. The next chapter will have to be I coded in the Internet cafe and coded. Thank you very much.
