China Entertainment: I have been a director since 05

Chapter 127 shocked the whole country, Lingyun Media is causing trouble again!

"The TV series "The Myth" will be the second TV series collaboration between Director Guan and Brother Cheng Long. After "2012", the two of them will jointly become the TV series producers and work hard to create a costume drama for the new year!"

"Starring Hu Ge and Liu Yan, and starring Bai Bing, Zhang Shi, Jin Sha, and Zhu Yawen, the "Myth" TV series creates a collision drama between ancient times and modern times!"

The publicity in the online media instantly became popular.

When Guan Ling saw the news on the portal website.

Can't help but smile.

"Myth" and Jinsha are indeed a match made in heaven.

After playing the role of school beauty Lan Feilin in "", she became a singer and has been releasing songs for the past two years. Who would have thought that the TV series "Myth" would finally choose her because of her Susu.

Maybe she and Lu Su complement each other.

Not only Guan Ling was surprised,

Netizens also instantly had great expectations for this TV series.

Just the screenplay by Guan Ling is enough for the audience to look forward to.What's more, both Guan Ling and Cheng Long are producers. If it doesn't look good, it will definitely lose their reputation.

"Director Guan is really awesome. Not only does he shoot Hollywood blockbuster movies, but he can also step in and bring TV series benefits to fans. I'm really looking forward to it!"

"Hu Ge and Liu Yan, I didn't expect these two to be able to film together. It feels like they are from two different worlds."

Tang Dynasty had a good time at this time. When netizens discuss "2012", they always bring "Myth" into the discussion.

All of a sudden, the popularity of this TV series has skyrocketed!

Therefore, other Lunar New Year movies, such as "Assembly" are becoming less and less popular.

The reviews of "Assembly" have improved somewhat in the past few days.

Mainly because the reviews of some professional film critics took off, Huayi had no choice but to find someone to continue the propaganda, so some positive reviews appeared online.

There was still some scolding.

The reviews are mostly polarizing.

Some negative reviews are very venomous.
"The technology of "Assembly" is in place, but the structure is scattered, just like two episodes of a TV series."

Some of the good reviews seem to be ironic or not.

"After I watched this movie, I was really surprised because there was no line like 'This is my last month's party dues' in it. This is really rare in war."

"Gu Zidi has been bombed to death. He had no father, no mother, no name, and became one of the countless nameless dead. The war scenes in this movie are really shocking."

Some people are really giving it a thumbs up.

It's a pity that it's useless. Theaters all know which movie is more profitable, and the film schedule and box office of "2012" are still soaring.

Some media made objective evaluations of it.

"The ultimate disaster movie? Or a family adventure movie?
There may be no clear boundary between the two, let alone a chasm like a chasm.

Going into the theater, I could guess what this movie would be about.

But I would rather see Director Guan's whimsical ideas, like the ingenious narrative in "The Uninvited Guest", like the murderous hook in "The Suspect", and like the life-and-death rush in "Shark Beach".Or maybe it's like the deeper structure in "Crazy Racing".

But I didn't see it. Everything about this movie was exactly what I thought.

But the ticket price is still worth it.

Because it's a movie in itself that I know exactly what he's going to show us, but we're still shocked when we see it.

In fact, what I admire most in the film is the fanatical podcast in Yellowstone Park, the lama in Tibet who rings the bell amidst the sound of the tsunami. When disaster approaches, besides those who are crazy and calm, there are people at home and abroad. The courage to face death through different paths is actually the highest level of human wisdom.

This is one of the few highlights in the plot, but among the mediocre performances, bloody plots, and clichéd stories, he gave us unparalleled, peak-level, and vivid special effects senses!

Guan Ling succeeded again. This time, he did not rely on the plot. He completely smashed the most gorgeous part of Hollywood special effects into the pool of Chinese movies!
This is an unavoidable film in Chinese film history, because it told the world that Chinese directors are no worse than those in Hollywood when it comes to special effects! "

The topic was complaining about the movie's cliched plot, but it did not affect the audience in buying tickets to watch the movie. The box office of the "2012" movie has been soaring.

In the second week, the movie box office dropped a bit.

But the movie broke the record in Chinese film history again.

After 5700 million on the first day, over 7000 million in two days, and [-] million on the first weekend, the movie box office in the second week directly exceeded the [-] million mark on Saturday, becoming the first [-] million movie shot by a mainland director.

Globally, the box office has exceeded the US$4.8 million mark.

Another nearly $[-] million was recorded.

It’s all calculated, it’s only been released for eleven days!

"The global box office in the second week is still approaching 2 million. It is a foregone conclusion that the box office of "Mission: Impossible [-]" will be broken!"

"Where is Director Guan's limit? I can't test Director Guan's true bottom line!"

Not just mainland news.

Everyone in Hong Kong was also shocked. Ten days after its release, the box office of "2012" in Shanghai exceeded 2000 million. This figure is a bit outrageous.

"Multiple Ru kilns in 4 minutes, the giant Ru goddess Liu Yan shocked movie fans around the world! Audiences around the world licked their lips!"

"Liu Yan shook 140 eight times to satisfy the global audience."

Guan Ling's lips twitched when he looked at the Hong Kong media titles on the portal website.

It's really awesome, and the Hong Kong media seems to like this kind of third-party promotion. They don't start with Guan Ling and Cheng Long at all, but just use Liu Yan's 4-minute scene and go crazy!
Foreign news is also dumbfounding.

"Guan, the director of "Hearing Girl" has produced a new movie that is comparable to "Collision" + "Poseidon" + "The Day After Tomorrow", and the special effects are several times more shocking!"

"Guan comes out again and grosses $[-] million at the global box office!"

"Cheng Long not only knows Kung Fu, he can also chase planes!"

The box office data is like flying on an airplane, going crazy upward.

Everyone knows that every day it is released.

2012 is all about setting new records!
Just a matter of time.

Everyone is just still looking forward to how good this movie will be.

And how high can Guan Ling push the highest box office of a movie made by a mainland director?

That must be the invisible pressure from other directors.

For example, Brother Chen Kai has stopped talking recently.

During the interview, he said that "The Promise" is comparable to "2012". Now this old boy wants to pretend to be an ostrich and bury his head in the sand.

But the media obviously didn't want to let him go, and many of the current news are laughing at him.

At home, looking at Chen Hong's face, Brother Chen Kai felt extremely aggrieved.

"Honghong, tell me, how can a person be so shameless?"

He pointed at the news insulting him in the media, his face turned red with anger!
……

In the third week.

Guan Ling was interviewed by CCTV.

As China's first special effects movie, The Six Princesses invited Guan Ling to the stage for an interview during the movie's release.

The main purpose is to continue publicity. For foreign publicity, Fox relies on Fox. For domestic publicity, China Film Group must be more attentive.

The host is still passing through Jingwei.

"Director Guan, I wonder if you have seen the comments online recently. The movie "2012" is becoming increasingly popular at the box office, but the reviews are somewhat polarized. Is there anything that Director Guan wants to say to the audience?"

Guan Ling said: "I have seen that some netizens on the Internet have the most divided discussions about the plot. Some people think that the plot of this movie is very bland. The protagonist played by Cheng Long has a very lucky family. The whole movie is like a family adventure. movie. I think netizens’ comments are very accurate, but this is exactly the standard I set for this movie. As a Lunar New Year movie, I don’t want to convey suffering to the audience. As a blockbuster movie, I don’t want to set too many details in the plot. It contains many fragmented scenes of life. As a Sino-US co-production, I also have to consider the love of global movie fans.

In fact, everyone needs to understand one thing. The more complex and sophisticated a movie is, the more interesting it is. Movies are ultimately about entertainment. From beginning to end, all the movies I make want to bring happiness to the audience.Or shock.

"2012" has achieved the ultimate from this perspective!But in fact, I set up a lot of details in the movie. I found that netizens did not comment much on it. I suggested that netizens analyze it carefully and find problems. "

"Director Guan, you want the audience to watch it twice." Tu Jingwei asked with a smile.

"Have you discovered all this?" Guan Ling said with a smile.

After a moment, Guan Ling suddenly thought of something and said, "Some netizens like in-depth lines and sophisticated plots. We at Lingyun Media will indeed produce a movie like this soon. Please look forward to it when the time comes."

"Director Guan has a new movie recently?" Tu Jingwei was also very surprised. Seeing that Guan Ling wanted to promote it, he immediately started to praise it, "Is it the one in the entire series you are talking about?"

"No, it's a movie produced by Lingyun Media and directed by director Jiang Wen."

"The name of this movie is "Let the Bullets Fly."

……

Director Guan is really not a human being, after the interview was released.Netizens criticized Guan Ling for his shamelessness. The ticket price was so expensive, but we were even asked to see it twice?

However, netizens still agree with the content of the interview, and some previous rumors of conflict have gradually disappeared.

And what Guan Ling said is true, if there are no movies to watch, you can watch moving movies and shed tears in the theater, but when you have a choice, who wants to watch a movie that makes you cry, especially when Hollywood special effects blockbusters are being released? , most people still prefer pleasure and shock.

What makes everyone even more excited is that a new movie is coming out.

And it belongs to Jiang Wen.

Netizens are very excited.

"Let the bullets fly"

The name sounds interesting. What kind of movie is this, and then there is a shootout?
No one can guess it, after all, the name is too mysterious.

…………

When I left the CCTV station, I was greeted by the channel director of CCTV [-].

"Director Guan, if you're not busy for a while, let's go out for a casual meal?"

At the wine table, the Eighth Director of CCTV toasted to Guan Ling and said: "Director Guan, Yangba is very interested in the TV series "Myth". I have contacted Mr. Cai of Tang Dynasty before, but the competition pressure is a bit high. Today, while Director Guan is here, Are you thinking about chatting with Director Guan? I heard that Lingyun Media is the leading investor in TV series investment."

"Ling Yun is indeed the boss, but he has been too busy recently, so he has given full authority to Mr. Cai and Director Chen. Now we have a price issue?"

"That's right." Director Eight of the Central Government said, "Mr. Cai's price is too high, and it's hard for us to approve the budget. I wanted to make a ratings bet with them like you did before, but Mr. Cai's side I didn’t really want to bet, so I just held off. That’s why I took the liberty to talk to Director Guan..."

"How much is the bet on the ratings?" Guan Ling asked.

"1.5%." The director said, "This rating requirement seems quite high, but for the words director Guan and screenwriter, it is already a very low requirement."

"Don't flatter me." Guan Ling said with a smile, "This number is indeed not high, but Mr. Cai is indeed more stable than me usually. She really doesn't dare to bet on the ratings. From last year's six After the TV show, PPTV, PPS, 56.com, Youku, LeTV, and many other video websites came out and developed rapidly, attracting a lot of viewers. Although the videos they saw were not clear enough, they did bring excitement to the TV series viewers. There has been a small impact, so it’s normal not to bet.”

"But I think this amount can be obtained, so I can go and talk about this matter." Guan Ling said, "It's just a matter of price. I won't give you a discount, Mr. Chen."

"As you said, how can you let Director Guan kill your own price in terms of price? I am relieved by what you said, Director Guan. Come on, Director Guan, cheers!"

The director was excited.

With Guan Ling's words, at least when they talk to Cai Yinong again, they can feel a little more relaxed.

On the way back, Guan Ling called Cai Yinong.

"Hey, Director Guan, why do you want to call me now?"

"Yangba is looking for someone to talk about "Myth"? The 1.5% mentioned in the gambling agreement?"

"I haven't told Director Guan yet, but you will know now that many TV stations have contacted me now, not only CCTV, Mango TV, Goubuli TV, Honghui Fuwa TV, but also the local Dragon TV in Shanghai. I even want to spend a lot of money.”

"I was interviewed by CCTV just now and was blocked." Guan Ling said, "Don't be too nervous about the ratings of the gambling agreement, "Myth" can get it."

"Director Guan is so confident?"

"Don't forget who wrote the script." Guan Ling chuckled, "The main reason for calling you is to remind you that betting is not a bad thing, and we can take the initiative to increase the ratings by 2%, 3%, 4 % is no problem, just be bolder when negotiating and get more ladder-type contracts. If the ratings are high, you and I can earn more."

"Okay, Director Guan, I listen to you." Cai Yinong is very experienced, but he doesn't dare to take risks. Now that Guan Ling has nodded in person, there is no harm in betting.

…………

"2012" is in its fourth week of release.

Lingyun Media suddenly issued an announcement!
"Congratulations to Liu Yifei for joining Lingyun Media. Lingyun Media's first TV series is about to start filming, and Liu Yifei will be the heroine."

Casting online!

The entertainment industry is crazy!

All people in the entertainment industry have set their sights on this TV series that the director of Lingyun Media will personally shoot.

No one wants to participate.

But they didn't know that many of the protagonists had already been pre-decided.

But even so, the remaining characters are enough to make people in the entertainment industry excited.

Guan Ling’s TV series,

If I can’t participate in the movie, can I save the country through a curve, right?

Male and female celebrities all showed coveted eyes!
