China Entertainment: I have been a director since 05

Chapter 113 Let me recite a poem, Huayi is the rising Dong Xi...

One stone caused a thousand waves!

What is the pinnacle of low-budget movies?

Some netizens expressed doubts. They think they know movies, and the name "Peak of Small-Cost Movies" cannot be called nonsense.

Reporters rant online under their real names: Is "The Uninvited Guest" good to watch? Is "Crazy Stone" good to watch? "Crazy Racing" is even more funny, the plot is more realistic, and it involves a series of realistic exaggerations and embellishments. This alone makes this movie the absolute pinnacle of Chinese low-budget movies!
Many people who attended the premiere liked and retweeted the journalist's blog.

"The movie "Racing" tells us the true strength of the Oscar winner for Best Original Screenplay! The ability to perfect humor and plot with such mastery is something only a director in China can do."

The Internet's expectations for "Crazy Racing" have been completely raised.

Some people who were preparing to watch "Harry Potter" were a little hesitant. These latter people are not die-hard fans, and die-hard fans have already finished watching it.

Everyone is thinking, if you could only watch one show, which one would be "Harry Potter"?Or watch "Racing"?

So tangled!

But there are also some ardent fans,

"Why does the premiere have to be held three days before the release? I really can't stand it!"

"One of my sisters flew to Beijing to watch the premiere. After they came back, they kept telling me jokes that I didn't understand. I'm very anxious now! It feels really uncomfortable to have money and no place to spend it!"

"I've just watched the movie. Huang Bo is so funny, hahaha. I think he can really endorse Huiren Shenbao, both for you and her!"

"Are you a human upstairs? Huang Bo endorses Shenbao? Thinking about it makes your eyes irritate! Besides, who is a real man using Shenbao?"

"Don't underestimate me upstairs. The 'Development and Innovation Research of Shenbao Tablets' has also been selected into the [-] plan of the Ministry of Science and Technology of China. It is an officially included kidney-tonifying traditional Chinese medicine! I am from a pharmaceutical company, and a piece of Xiaolan Tablets costs [-]! "

"This is not kidney treasure, this is Viagra!"

"Dare you take Viagra? I'll give you a gift!"

"I am a fan of Sister Tianxian. I heard that Sister Tianxian finally appeared in media news reports. I will definitely watch this movie!"

The Internet is a mess, with people who have seen the movie spreading the word, and people who have not seen the movie eagerly looking forward to it.

Netizens are shouting, they can’t wait!

Zhu Yawen, Liu Yan and others from the "Myth" crew also called. The plot was being filmed to the point of nervousness. They couldn't support them on the ground and could only act as trolls online!

"Guanzi, I look at the popularity of "Racing" and feel a little envious. You have to think about my new movie!"

The popularity on the Internet was so great that Zhu Yawen even cried!
No matter how popular the TV series is, the money earned is also given to the TV station. It is different with movies. You can earn money to the production company and your own popularity can rise rapidly.

Zhu Yawen has never played a leading role. This year, Guan Ling has been busy with large-scale productions. He really wants to make movies as soon as possible.

The film's distributor in Hong Kong approached Emperor, who was considered an old friend, and finally got a sip of soup from Guan Ling.

But Guan Ling has no expectations for the box office in Hong Kong. After all, it is more noble there, and he may not be able to understand such a small person, especially when he speaks in dialect.

"Surrounded by a pack of wolves, can Ning Hao take the top spot?"

"Industry people are optimistic about the quality of "Crazy Racing", but the box office performance may not meet everyone's expectations."

"Chinese films cannot beat imported Hollywood films." This is almost a consensus.

There are many different propaganda methods on the Internet. No one can tell which ones are praising you and which ones are praising you.

Finally, the time came to August [-]th, and the movie was finally released!
The movie began large-scale screenings at the same time across the country.

Some people in the industry who have watched the premiere know that "Crazy Racing" has strong quality, but no one knows how much it will earn at the box office.

Although I chose a summer movie, there are still competitors. If you don’t count "The Untold Secret" and "The Fuse",
"Racing" needs to directly compete with "Tiantangkou" and "Harry Potter". Let's not talk about Harry Potter. The cast of Tiantangkou is also quite good, including Daniel Wu, Shu Qi, Liu Ye, Li Xiaolu, Sun Honglei.

The crew members are also good-looking and of a high level.

It's just that the promotion is completely different from "Crazy Racing".

But after all, there are Hong Kong and Taiwan actors, and it is relatively easier for Hong Kong and Taiwan actors to attract box office.

After the movie was released, Ning Hao went to Lingyun Media three times a day.

The first time I passed the door and didn't get in.

Came in a second time but left again.

The third time, Ning Hao brought Xing Nana with him.

In the office, Guan Ling looked at Ning Hao and was speechless, "If you are not busy running publicity, why are you here?"

"I ran away. I've been doing promotions this morning. Now, I'm just a little nervous. I feel like my fate is in the hands of the audience."

"You should be lucky that the works of you and me allow the audience to choose, so we only need to pay attention to quality, right?"

"I'm not afraid of quality, so I'm not worried about "Heaven's Mouth" at all, but after all, "Harry Potter" has a huge impact."

Ning Hao expressed his worries.

"Your worries are not unreasonable." Guan Ling understands Ning Hao's state of mind, "But as long as the quality of the film is high enough, the audience will not completely stop watching Chinese movies and only watch American blockbusters. The most important thing is word of mouth."

"I know all this, but I'm still a little panicked."

"Director Guan, Ning Hao is afraid that he will not be able to live up to your expectations,"

Xing Nana said, he is better at talking than Ning Hao, and his words are impeccable.
"In the past few days, Ning Hao has been thinking about whether he can enter the [-] million yuan club. If he can really enter, it will mean a lot to him! So he is a bit more stressed."

"How about going out for a walk?" Guan Ling invited.

The three people left the company, and Guan Ling led them to the door of the nearest cinema.

It's the summer season now, and there are quite a lot of people outside. Inside the theater, three people saw the poster of "Crazy Racing", with Huang Bo's big face in a close-up and a lunar ravine inside.

In the waiting room of the cinema, there are also many audiences waiting to enter.

There are many people who want "Harry Potter", but there are even more tickets for "Crazy Race".

"Did you see that? You were nervous too early. The audience will make their choice." Guan Ling spread his hands, and these words made Ning Hao calm down completely. "I won't talk to you about anything else. I have to go back to the company. You can have some fun here by yourself."

"Thank you, Director Guan. I feel much better now." Ning Hao thanked him repeatedly.

Guan Ling said goodbye. He had to go back to the company to write the script. The script for "Meng Hua Lu" was quickly finished.

But there are a lot of kissing scenes in it.

In the play, the heroine Zhao Pan'er plays the role, and her official Gu Qianfan is always kissing each other.

This made Guan Ling feel cold.

He definitely won't act in this play, so Liu Yifei will be the heroine, and the hero will have to find someone sensible.

And these things have to be deleted from the script. When it comes time to shoot this kind of plot, just set up a fish tank, get two fish to kiss, and that's it.

If you really need to move, you have to borrow your seat.

"I'm really stupid. If I just choose Zhu Yawen, it's over!" It's not like Zhu Yawen can't play the role played by Chen Xiaoneng.

And although this kid looks upright, when he plays the role of a hawk or a dog, his image is indeed somewhat similar.

Guan Ling became excited instantly.

This can be considered as finding a job for the adopted son. Being an adopted father is really hard work!
But I still have to fight with this kid later. In the scene, you must behave yourself when facing your suspected adoptive mother, and don't violate the taboo of a frivolous mother!
Thinking of this, Guan Ling felt great.

Then I thought, "Why am I licking her like this?"

Although Liu Yifei has signed a contract with her own company now, and the money she makes is to make money for Ling Yun, there is really no need to do her best for her. Although she looks a bit prettier, what's the use of just being able to see and not eat? !

I will definitely have to deal with her later!

Ning Hao followed his wife to several theaters, feeling more and more relaxed.

In fact, he was not only relaxed, but also a little surprised, because he found that in many theaters, "Racing" was more popular than "Harry Potter".

"Mouse, I feel like we are going to release this movie. How do I feel that tomorrow's first-day box office will create a miracle? This movie is for sure." Xing Nana took Ning Hao's arm and started shaking excitedly.

"Perhaps it's because of the premiere. Too many celebrities went there, which amplified the publicity effect. How about we come out and have a look tomorrow?"

"Do you really think it's a premiere? It's Director Guan. Without Director Guan, those people wouldn't be able to come at all."

"That's what you said. Then we can't embarrass Director Guan." Ning Hao cheered up, "I have to see how I can promote it tomorrow. During these days, I'd better work hard. "

Currently chatting,

Ning Hao suddenly saw someone walking out of the theater, and what they were watching was the show of "Crazy Racing". Everyone's face was filled with smiles.

Ning Hao and Xing Nana followed for a while, only to hear each other's words hitting his chest like drumsticks.

"Ning Hao is really awesome. The casting of these actors is amazing. How come everyone is so funny."

"Hahaha, I just saw in the plot, when Huang Bo hit Li Farah's hair with a beanie shoe, Li Farah's wig fell off, revealing his extremely smart head, I was about to die laughing! "

"I decided to brush it again. I have to see how the Baodao underworld and Huang Bo successfully traded."

"Okay, don't follow me." Xing Nana grabbed Ning Hao, "It's all good reviews."

In the afternoon, Ning Hao also revealed his identity and asked about the attendance rate at the cinema. The result shocked him. There was not much difference in the attendance rate between "Crazy Racing" and "Harry Potter". The managers of the cinema were dumbfounded. .

The next morning, Ning Hao arrived at the company early.

But the box office hasn’t come out yet.

After waiting for a few more hours for the summary, Ning Haoren was already stunned when he heard the box office results.

The national box office of "Racing" on the first day was RMB 1000 million, breaking [-] million!

You must know that the first-day box office of "Shark Beach" and "Hearing Girl" did not exceed 1000 million. Among Guan Ling's movies, only "Suspect" took advantage of the success of "The Da Vinci Code" to achieve a first-day box office of 43 million!

There is only one result for this box office.

It broke a billion!
The cliff has exceeded [-] million!
On the portal website, the news started to boil!

"Shocked, the box office of the movie directed by Ning Hao exceeded [-] million on the first day. Guan Ling's statement of '[-] million yuan club' is not groundless!"

"What kind of magic does Guan Ling have? Is his script really a precursor to a big hit for the director and actors?"

"The reputation of "Crazy Racing" has exploded, and readers are clamoring to read it a second time, or even a third time, in order to see the details clearly!"

Fermented!
Good movies don't hide in alleys.

Online reviews of "Racing" have been intensifying with praise.

"The plot is so exciting. This is the most hilarious scene I've ever laughed at in the theater this year!"

"Geng Hao is really a wronged person, but I love watching this kind of wronged person so much! I feel like I am venting my emotions along with him!"

There are also portal forums where some movie fans wrote long articles.

This forum is called Douban. On the first day of the movie, Douban opened the rating, and the rating exceeded 8.5 points!
One of the comments attracted thousands of likes.

"Watching the afternoon screening of "Race", there was a touching scene after the film.

——I mean if I were director Ning Hao, who guest-starred as a taxi driver in the film, I would definitely be moved by the scene before me.

Like most Chinese theaters, when the lights come on, the audience has to get up and leave.

However, the credits also included visual content, and almost everyone watched it standing, some in front of the screen and some on the aisles and stairs.

After the movie has finished explaining the fate of the characters (actually it has nothing to do with the overall situation), until the big word 'end' appears.

I once heard a saying that movies are a tribute to frustrated heroes.

In this movie, Geng Hao is the frustrated hero, just like the thief played by Fan Wei in "The Uninvited Guest", just like the unlovable stone god in "The Suspect", or the desperate man in "Shark Beach" Liu Yan, who is struggling to survive, is also like Liu Yifei, who is exhausted by life in "Hearing Girl".

In Director Guan's scripts, there is always a character that makes you feel heartbroken, raising your head and bowing your head at the same time. Your heart will gradually beat with the character in the movie!
When the movie ended, not only did the hilarious humor disappear, but it also made me suddenly want to say something to Guan Ling,

Of course, this sentence also applies to Director Ning and Lingyun Media.

Your time has come.

Your time has come! "

…………

On the second day, the box office rose again, reaching 140 million.

On the third day, 380 million.

The entertainment industry is crazy!
The entire industry was driven crazy by the excitement!

Everyone knows that the cost of this drama is only 1000 million yuan.

And now, in just three days, the box office of this drama has completely recovered its cost.

Coupled with the large and small advertisements that Ning Hao planted in it, this drama has already made money!
Profiteering!

Ning Hao's name appeared on various news webpages with the crazy box office of "Racing", and like Guan Ling, it was on the front page!

Everyone knows that a new "Billion Dollar Club Director" was born!

A great director who can once again directly make a star famous is born!
No surprises!

Ning Hao and Xing Nana came to Lingyun Media and sincerely thanked Guan Ling.

"Director Guan, thank you, both for the script and for allowing us to personally participate in the investment. This kindness is something we will never forget."

"Why are you so polite? You are a contracted director within my company. The more popular you are, the more profits you will bring to the company, isn't that good?"

"Okay, of course!" Ning Hao's smile never left his face, "I am willing to work hard for the company and work hard to make money!"

"By the way, there have been too many production companies contacting me recently, and they all want to invest in me." Ning Hao reported the situation to Guan Ling, "There is also Huayi inside. They are addicted to watching you poach them over there. They give me Offer a high price and let me go."

"What's the price?"

"If you hadn't given me the right to invest, Director Guan, I would have been moved." Ning Hao told the truth, "It exceeded 700 million in one year."

"Hey, Huayi is really willing to spend money!"

Time came to day No. 13, and it exceeded [-] million.

The time from project establishment to release of "Crazy Racing" is too fast, and in such a short period of time, the profit it has created has been three or four times.

And he continues to show.

It has even shaken the status of "Harry Potter". In the past few days, the box office of "Harry Potter" has dropped slightly every day!

The film and television industry is in turmoil.

At this time, suddenly a famous meme was born.

Talented netizens compose poems directly online.

“When I saw Guan Ling and Ning Hao’s new movie, I couldn’t help but think of Huayi, which does great marketing.
At first, I thought Huayi was better than Ling Yun. At that time, Guan Ling was just a small director earning [-] million yuan.

Going forward, once the Oscars are won, I think Huayi's chances of winning are slim, but it can still give it a try.

But now, let me recite a poem to praise Chinese art.

Huayi is the rising Dongxi,
It’s Bi Yang’s late thoughts,

It is the mellow relief of spring,

It’s the flying of a kite!

ah! ...Hua Yi, Hua Yi,
Ning Hao's movie has exceeded [-] million yuan, what can you do to save it? "

The Internet exploded!This famous meme swept the entire Internet with lightning speed!
