Chapter 594 Naming
As the end of the year approaches, the upcoming Spring Festival, the strongest in history, will not only be the most competitive in the entire 2016, but also the strongest Spring Festival in the past three years. It is now rolling in with unprecedented strength.

Since "The Martian" achieved a box office of over 10 billion during the Spring Festival period, the Spring Festival period has gradually reached its peak, and it has naturally become a battleground for military strategists.

During the seven-day Spring Festival holiday last year, the mainland box office market reported a revenue of approximately 17.5 billion yuan, an increase of 2014/14 compared with the 1 Spring Festival revenue of 4 billion yuan.

Last year, "Heavenly Heroes" grossed a total of 4.51 million yuan at the box office during the Spring Festival, becoming the champion during the seven-day holiday. "Macau 2" ranked second with a score of 4.16 million yuan, and "Wolf Totem" ranked with a score of 2.97 million yuan. The third place in the Spring Festival stalls.

The intensity of the 2016 Spring Festival movie season has reached an unprecedented level. Unlike last year's Spring Festival movie season when all kinds of films were competing for the slot, after "Happy New Year" led by Zhao Benshan was moved up from February 2 to February 8, there are only four films in the 2 Spring Festival movie season, but each of them is as large as an aircraft carrier.

"Mermaid" directed by Zhou Xingchi and joined by stars.

The super IP blockbuster "Journey to the West: The Monkey King Fights Three Bone Demons" starring Aaron Kwok, Gong Li, Feng Shaofeng and others.

"Macau Storm 3", which continues the style of the previous two years and continues to be upgraded, and the animated film "Nian Beast Battle" will be released on February 2, the first day of the Lunar New Year.

But this does not mean that these blockbusters will only compete during the Spring Festival, because "Kung Fu Panda 3" and "Ip Man 3", which were released more than a week before the Spring Festival, will also join the competition for the schedule and take advantage of the Spring Festival schedule.

Then the last day of the 2016 Spring Festival holiday happened to be February 2th.

These days, almost all major companies are holding their year-end summary meetings and this year's upcoming films.

Han Sanping then said slowly, "There are good and bad. The good thing is that "Operation Red Sea" is good, and "I'm Not the God of Medicine" is probably over. Someone is paying attention to your film."

"The Secret of the Dragon" and "囧" both exceeded 17 billion at the box office, but they can no longer move forward and will be released one after another.

Han Sanping smiled lightly and said, "Why, do you want to play a role? The subject matter this time is very suitable for you, and it is all about young people."

"Hahaha, everyone has learned the Internet. They don't learn bad things, but they have to learn good things from others. This way the company will have stronger cohesion."

"Third Master, you have never forgotten these three parts!"

The smoke of the previous Spring Festival has not yet subsided, and the Valentine's Day is coming one after another. Two distinct love suspense movies, "Love" and "Murder in Time", will start fighting on the last day of the seven-day holiday.

"Next year will be the 90th anniversary, so I have a mission."

"When Will There Be a Bright Moon", "Overheard 4", "Wushuang", "Chasing the Dragon".
Bona does have a lot of Hong Kong films, but only a few are purely mainland films, one of which is "The Founding of the Army" produced by Han Sanping.

"If there is no main theme comparison, they naturally have no reference for comparison, but there is no way to predict how long it will take. If there is, they will definitely wait for safety."

"Mr. Yu, you did a good job at this annual meeting."

"No way, it's far worse than Lao Wang's Guangguang Annual Meeting two days ago, let alone Mengying's the day after tomorrow. I heard that Director Li's bonuses to employees this year are extremely generous, and even the gifts from the annual meeting raffle are... It’s a good thing, I’ll have some luck the day after tomorrow.”

At this time, the lottery was approaching, and Yu Dong came on stage to introduce Bona's shooting plan for this year.

Yu Dong laughed and said, surrounded by invited guests.

Li Mu and Han Sanping were chatting and laughing happily.

Li Mu shook his head and refused.

Li Mu smiled. This year, Mengying Media's performance exceeded 70 billion, so it was natural that some bonuses would be given to encourage it.

"Forget it, I have a lot of things to do here, not "I'm Not the God of Medicine". I continue to follow up, and there are signs of letting go. But looking at the posture, it seems that I want to wait for the results of "Operation Red Sea" , and see the response.”

Li Mu raised his eyebrows, because Han Sanping suddenly said this, which must mean that the person he paid attention to was of high status.

At this time, the annual meeting was very lively with singing and dancing.

Otherwise, ordinary people Han Sanping would not say it. You must know that Han Sanping was the main hall when he was in power.

"I have to say that these honors of yours are very useful at critical moments. This time you won the Golden Globe and were nominated for an Oscar. It also made a lot of news in the official media."

Han Sanping didn't explain it in detail, but Li Mu didn't ask too much. Anyway, just do your own thing.

After Yu Dong talked about China, he started talking about Bona Pictures' foreign cooperation.

"Independence Day 2", "X-Men: Apocalypse", "House Girl", "War for the Planet of the Apes".
Two days later, Mengying Media’s year-end summary was naturally quite impressive, and Liu Yifei also briefly attended.

There are currently only four confirmed movies to be released this year: "BJ Meets Seattle: Love Letter", "Operation Red Sea", "Arrival", and "Xiu Chun Dao 2 Shura Battlefield".

On January 1, "Kung Fu Panda 29" was released simultaneously in China and the United States, but the movie released together with it was "The Evaporating Pacific."

Two new films released on January 3, "Kung Fu Panda 1" and "Evaporating the Pacific," accounted for 29% of the film schedule.

Among them, "Kung Fu Panda 3" had 67473 screenings on that day, three times that of "Evaporating the Pacific".

The box office results of the day have not yet been announced. The 66th Berlin Film Festival, which opened in February, finally announced the last eight films shortlisted for the main competition unit.

Counting the 14 previously announced shortlisted films, the full picture of the main competition unit of this Berlin Film Festival has been revealed.

"Yangtze River Pictures", directed by Chinese director Yang Chao and starring Qin Hao and Xin Zhilei, is among them, becoming the only Chinese film selected for the main competition unit.

At this Berlin Film Festival, the Chinese elements are slightly dim.

The taste of the new year is getting stronger and stronger, and Liu Yifei's pregnancy check-ups have become once a week.

In the car, Li Mu put down the new instructions given by the doctor, which were instructions for the last important period of the month or so.

"The baby is coming in more than a month."

Liu Yifei is full of expectations at this moment.

Li Mu looked around at the vehicle and started only when it was safe.

"Amu, if you give birth to a boy, what would you call him?"

Liu Yifei suddenly asked. She and Li Mu had been thinking about this matter these days. The name of the child carries the sustenance of the two of them. Neither of their parents has expressed any opinions in this regard. Everything depends on the two people's wishes.

"Boy, after thinking about it for so many days, don't you have an idea? I'll leave the boy's name to you."

Li Mu lightly touched the tip of Liu Yifei's nose.

"Well, don't forget your original intention and stay safe. What do you think?"

Liu Yifei's bright eyes blinked with expectation.

"Don't forget your original intention, stay safe" Li Mu muttered, "Have you been safe for the first time?"

"Well, Li Chuan, as long as you don't forget your original intention, you will be safe throughout your life. Nothing else is as important as this."

Liu Yifei nodded.

"What a good name." Li Mu praised subconsciously.

"What about the girl?"

Liu Yifei then asked, giving her the boy's name, and naturally giving the girl's name to Li Mu.

"How is Yisheng?"

Li Mu chuckled. Naturally, he had thought about this name for a long time.

"Yisheng?"

Liu Yifei's beautiful eyes couldn't help but sparkle with a hint of joy.

"Sheng and Qing have the same pronunciation, which means joy and joy."

Li Mu added the meaning of his name.

"Hmm, let's think about that nickname."

Liu Yifei nodded repeatedly. The two words "Yisheng" are indeed very suitable. She will live in harmony with others and be happy throughout her life.

"It's too early. Isn't it easy to choose a nickname without seeing the child?"

Li Mu smiled, "For example, if he just comes out and looks like you before, with a little bun face, you can't give him a small watermelon first."

"You are the bun."

Liu Yifei said coquettishly.

"The bun-shaped face is quite good, but now he is as charming as ever."

"Don't be ashamed!"

Liu Yifei blushed slightly. Even though she was pregnant, she was still too thin-skinned.

"What's there to be ashamed of? We're almost going to be parents."

"."

"Kung Fu Panda 3" is indeed the long-awaited box office boost for the January movie market.

截至1月29日21:30,单日大盘1.295亿,《功夫熊猫3》一片独大,独揽1.007亿,观影人次超过284万。

The film once again set a new record for animated films with a box office of over 100 million, and is very close to breaking the first-day record of "The Return of the God".

However, "Evaporating the Pacific", which was released on the same day as "Kung Fu Panda 3", is a different story.

The Douban score was directly rated at 4 points by netizens, and 62% of the viewers gave it one star after watching it.

"Zhang Yuqi and Ross are good-looking, but the plot is too bad and the special effects cost 50 cents."

"It has set a new limit for bad movies. What a shame for Zhang Yuqi's figure!"

"The so-called most powerful Sino-US co-production blockbuster? At this level, the quality of the film cannot be complimented. The special effects are only 50 cents, the story is full of loopholes, and the pace is even more laggy. It is completely a standard bad movie textbook. Please take a look at Director Li Is it okay to make a Sino-US co-production?”

"If you don't copy the homework of top international directors, you just mess around. Can't you understand Director Li's homework?"

Netizens are making crazy comments.

However, the huge bad movie effect is not like previous bad movies. The more criticism, the higher the box office. However, after it received more than 780 million at the box office on the first day, it also collected 755 million at the box office the next day.

On the other hand, "Kung Fu Panda 3" directly achieved a single-day box office of 1.27 million the next day, and by the way broke the single-day box office record for the animated film "The Return of the Monkey King".

However, the current box office performance of "Kung Fu Panda 3" seems to be better than the previous two movies, but the plot is weaker, and the Douban score is not as good as the previous two movies.

This makes Oriental DreamWorks vaguely worried.

After all, once the ratings of a series decline, it is likely to cause problems or even the end of the movie series.

"Kung Fu Panda 3" is the first film production since the establishment of Oriental DreamWorks. It is also a major cooperation between China and the United States in animated film production, and its importance is self-evident.

To this end, Li Ruigang made a quick call.

"Director Li, do you think there is something wrong with "Kung Fu Panda 3"?"
