China Entertainment: I have been a director since 05

Chapter 173 Blow up half of the entertainment industry!

On the crew of "Xiu Chun Knife", Lu Yang saw what the artists were discussing during his free time during filming.

As a young man, he naturally joined in.

"Senior Brother Zhou, Mimi, what are you talking about, are you so happy?"

"Our director Lu is so serious when filming, he really doesn't listen to what's going on outside the window." Zhou Wei shrugged and smiled.

"Director Lu, Director Jiang's first-day box office is out." Seeing Lu Yang's confused expression, Yang Mi couldn't help but remind her.

Yang Mi had already sent a text message to Guan Ling just now, saying that she wanted to give her senior brother a reward. Because my senior brother is making a lot of money again.

Although making money has nothing to do with her, she is willing to perform a dance for Director Guan.

But Guan Ling hasn't replied yet.

Lu Yang did not attend the premiere because he did not receive the invitation letter after all.

Essentially, Lu Yang was still a new director. Although Jiang Wen's film was produced by Lingyun Media, the invitation was not so thoughtful. Yang Qing, who had become famous, got the tickets.

""Let the bullets fly"?"

Lu Yang came to his senses and then asked curiously.

"What's the box office on the first day?"

"Guess, director. I don't think you can guess." Yang Mi also started to flirt with Lu Yang.

"Although the script was written by Director Guan, I heard it can be considered a literary film, more than [-] million?" Lu Yang gave a rough estimate, and looking at everyone's expressions, he was a little surprised, "It can't be [-] million, right? "

"Forty million." Zhou Wei curled his lips. This number was so astonishing that when Zhou Wei said it, he felt like he was talking a bit.

Although it is not actually [-] million, is that small gap considered a gap?

In the past year, theaters have sprung up all over the country. With the release of Guan Ling's movies and a large number of movies by famous directors, many people have seen that the theater industry is profitable.

The number of screens has already reached nearly [-] yuan.

So the figure of close to [-] million is logical, but it is a bit unrealistic.

Zhou Wei himself was a little scared when he said it, it would be great if he acted in this movie.

Forty million! This is a movie with a box office of nearly [-] million on its first day!

Lu Yang was stunned, his scalp was a little numb, and he was in a trance, almost sitting on the ground.

Zhang Zhen reacted quickly and went directly to help Lu Yang.

"Director, what's wrong? Are you feeling uncomfortable?"

"A little hypoxic." Lu Yang calmed down for a while and took out the news they were watching from Yang Mi's hand.

I'm still a little confused.

A while ago, I was envious of Yang Qing. This kid is also a newcomer, and he directly won nearly [-] million box office with "Nightclub".

Looking at it now, Yang Qing is nothing.

Jiang Wen is still awesome.

No, Director Guan is still awesome. After all, the script of "Let the Bullets Fly" was written by Director Guan.

By the way, the script "Xiuchundao" was also written by Director Guan.

Lu Yang suddenly stood up with excitement.

"Director, what's wrong?" Wang Qianyuan and Nie Yuan were both shocked.

Although the two of them participated in the exchange just now, they still talked very little. However, Lu Yang did make them tremble at this moment.

"Everyone, don't take a break. Act and work hard. This movie depends not only on me, but also on you. Let's polish the quality to the highest level together. How about it?"

"Why are you so serious all of a sudden?" Everyone looked at Lu Yang, a little confused.

The next second, Lu Yang's words made everyone's hair stand on end.

"The drama "Xiu Chun Dao" was originally planned to be filmed by Director Guan himself, but he was very busy, so the film fell into my hands. But I must emphasize it again. The script of this film is also the same It was written by Director Guan..."

Everyone suddenly understood.

Then, everyone's faces were instantly filled with energy.

Yes, this is Director Guan's script.

Director Guan’s script!

A good performance is everyone's hope for instant success!

If the acting is not good, it will be a shame for everyone. It will become an alternative film produced by Guan Guan, which must produce high-quality products, and become a shame.

Everyone is full of pressure now, but of course it is also more motivation.

"Hurry up and shoot, hurry up and shoot!" The hearts of all the creative actors were suddenly filled with urgency.

……

"Director Jiang Wen's new film has a box office of 3973 million on its first day! Jiang Wen and Guan Ling have once again created miracles for the Chinese film box office! It temporarily ranks second in the first-day box office rankings of Chinese films, second only to Guan Ling's film "2012" .”

"Guan Ling personally brought out a gold-eating monster. The first-day box office of "Let the Bullets Fly" surpassed "Detective Dee: The Empire of Heaven". Guan Ling's script level narrowly surpassed that of Guan Ling's director, pushing the first-day box office record of "Detective Dee" to third place. .”

"The National Day release has been completed! The first-day box office of "Let the Bullets Fly" surpassed "Red Cliff" by 1200 million!"

"In just one year, the first-day box office of "Let the Bullets Fly" completely crushed the first-day box office of "The Proposal"!"

"Is this the bonus of the Golden Lion Award, or the help of the holiday schedule? Maybe the film industry will finally have a large-scale schedule comparable to the Lunar New Year and summer schedules!" When Yu Dong saw the data report, he was a little excited , because he felt money waving to him.

When they released "Myth", it was during the National Day, but at that time it was extremely difficult for the box office to exceed [-] million in a month.

By the time "Baby Project" came around, Boehner was kicked.

During the National Day period, "Shark Beach" achieved the myth of a commercial film worth over [-] million yuan at a very low cost.

After that, "The Certificate of Voting" took in a box office of nearly [-] million during the National Day.

And today, "Let the Bullets Fly" was bombarded with publicity across the country and completely detonated the National Day release!

"Besides being awesome. I really don't know what to say." Yu Dong was very lucky that the person who was the enemy of Guan Ling was Hua Yi, not him. Otherwise, if I cry now, I don’t know where to cry.

……

Wang Changtian held a morning meeting within Guangxian Media Company.

The secretary sent him the data.

Seeing the box office data in his hand, Wang Changtian sat up straight, but there was no surprise on his face.

The people around him also got the data, and everyone looked at Wang Changtian with a shocked expression, a little unbelievable.

"Everyone, this is the most important thing I want to tell you this morning."

Wang Changtian thought for a while and said, "We must admit the fact that in terms of scripts and movies, the gap between us and Lingyun Media is too big. The other party, Guan Ling, has completely defeated all of us."

At the meeting, everyone was silent.

Wang Changtian smiled and said: "I have always followed one principle in my work. That is, I know how to advance and retreat. From today on, we can invite Lingyun Media to get a certain share of every movie produced by Raytheon, so that we can be invincible. Land. Finally, we also need to find a logo and a development direction for Guangxian."

"This is very important," Wang Changtian said, "Lingyun Media is very strong in the distribution of TV series and movies, so we will look for other paths, even movies and TV series. Everyone can speak freely about this."

Everyone frowned in thought.

In what aspect is Guan Ling not strong?

Disaster movies include 2012, Shark Tank.

Period films include Empire of Heaven.

Modern films have uninvited guests and suspects.

Dramas and family films, hearing girls count. There is also Let the Bullets Fly, a movie from the Republic of China period.

All in all, the strength Guan Ling has displayed so far is too comprehensive.

This is truly a mountain monster!

For a while, I really didn’t know how to find the most suitable track for Guangxian Media. so hard.

Glossy Media, which is not an enemy, is now a little panicked.

How panicked was Huayi?

……

Huayi.

Wang Zhonglei and Wang Zhongjun were sitting on the sofa dejectedly, with a cigar dangling from their mouths.

When word of the box office success of "Let the Bullets Fly" reached their ears.

The two brothers were completely at a loss.

Zhou Xun's contract was terminated, "Li Mi" was very poor at the box office, and Feng Xiaogang's new movie has not been finished yet. "The King of Kung Fu" was produced relatively quickly, but except for Jet Li, the other leading actors did not have a good box office appeal. .

Moreover, in fact, the two brothers are feeling anxious now.

"Brother, "The King of Kung Fu" is scheduled to be released during the Lunar New Year, but I'm very nervous now."

"I'm a little nervous too."

"I'm worried about Guan Ling's "Hurricane Rescue"." Wang Zhongjun has no pretense in front of his brothers, because the threat from Lingyun Media is too great. Originally, the two brothers were a bit at odds. Now that there are foreign enemies, the two brothers can work together.

How could the two brothers not panic after seeing the box office results of "Let the Bullets Fly"?

Jiang Wen and the others know very well, how much was the box office of last year's "The Sun Also Rises"? What happened this year? Did you take any medicine?

This is not Guan Ling's credit, but whose credit can it be?

Previously, Huayi heard people discuss the release date of "Taken", which was probably during the Lunar New Year.

But now Huayi is very embarrassed. If we move back, we have to waste this prime time.

But if they don't move back, neither of the two brothers has absolute confidence that they can win "Hurricane Rescue".

Li Lianjie versus Cheng Long?

The appeal is about the same, but Guan Ling definitely attracts more box office than Huayi.

"But we can't withdraw." Wang Zhonglei thought for a while and said, "We must expand our publicity to make "The King of Kung Fu" completely popular. We will definitely not be able to avoid it."

"This Lunar New Year period, we must stand firm. Once something goes wrong, we will not be able to hold our head up at all."

"Okay, let's set the Lunar New Year schedule." Wang Zhongjun thought about it for a while and finally nodded, "We spent such a high price to produce such a Hollywood blockbuster. If we can't use him to combat Guan Ling's arrogance, , we... will never be able to stand up again."

The two brothers knew very well that it was the Lunar New Year!

Although "Let the Bullets Fly" made them panic, they had to fight it.

……

Mother Liu asked Guan Ling to go home for dinner.

But Guan Ling refused because he had to go to the company to deal with some important matters.

At Lingyun Media, everyone was amazed by the new box office results, but no one was overly excited.

After all, to them, this is just a small scene.

After all, there is only one movie with more box office than this, and it is also a movie from Lingyun Media.

In Guan Dao, if a miracle does not happen, it is a rare miracle.

After meeting with the main leaders within the company, Guan Ling diligently comforted each of them and also gave them a salary increase.

"Director Guan, it seems that with this Golden Lion Award-winning movie, our company will make a lot of money again." Chen Xia and Fang Ping smiled happily.

"You guys laugh happier than me," Guan Ling said, "I just like how you feel like your company is your home."

"Of course a company is a home!" Fang Ping flattered Guan Ling with a smile.

"Director Guan, there is something I must report." When chatting alone, Fang Ping talked about the personal task Guan Ling had given him before.

"Now the economy in the United States has collapsed. The stocks of Microsoft, Apple, Amazon and other companies are all falling, but the decline is limited. For these large companies, a 20% decline is already very large."

"Buffett has been buying preferred stocks in the United States, and he made a statement a few days ago saying that he is buying the United States." Fang Ping said, "As our company's legal counsel, I still have to confirm with you, do you really want to Should you buy these stocks that are falling? After all, no one knows what the future will hold.”

"I know." Guan Ling muttered silently in his heart.

"I believe it will go back up." Guan Ling said, "The United States is still the United States after all. As long as these large companies can hold on, they will definitely remain at a high level in the future."

"Okay then. Since many domestic companies are listed on the US stock market or Hong Kong stock market, their stock prices have also plummeted." Fang Ping introduced the situation and current situation of companies such as Tencent and Alibaba to Guan Ling.

All in all, the stock market has plummeted for four consecutive months after the bull market of the previous two years.

In the process, the United States has stabilized the situation a little, but it still cannot stop the plummeting stock price. Even Lehman went bankrupt.

After listening, Guan Ling confirmed the available amount with the financial director.

Because we need to maintain the normal shooting and operation of current movies and TV series, the available funds are still slightly less than ideal.

There are also various funds accumulated by Guan Ling's personal director's fees. In the end, Guan Ling roughly estimated that the available funds are almost reaching two small goals.

Arrange Fang Ping to help open an account and buy the stocks you want.

Guan Ling finally breathed a sigh of relief.

The future doesn't matter anymore, because this wave has passed and the world is beautiful.

What can Guan Ling do? The process of investing is too tiring, so it is better to just lie down and collect the money.

Now that I have bought so many awesome stocks, the profits will be hundreds of times higher in the future. They are so awesome that Guan Ling can't help but want to pinch his waist.

At night, Guan Ling slept very soundly.

Although Liu Yifei's beautiful body was no longer there to warm his arms, it still gave Guan Ling's waist a good chance to rest.

But text messages are still indispensable.

"Director Guan, good night."

Liu Yifei sent a text message.

Guan Ling was asleep, so he definitely couldn't see it.

I slept until daytime the next day, when Liu Yifei called several times.

"Did you see it? Director Guan Da, the box office went up the next day, to 4024 million!"

When this data appeared, the industry exploded.

It doesn't matter if the increase isn't huge.

But the important thing is that it has risen, and everyone thinks that the first day of the National Day holiday is already the highest point.

Unexpectedly, under such circumstances, the box office actually increased.

It exploded, completely exploded!

A mere increase of less than one million may not seem like much, but what is important is the process of reverse decline.

This directly shocked the entire entertainment circle, who were waiting to watch the fun.

Because this illustrates one thing.

Word of mouth is overwhelming!
