China Entertainment: I have been a director since 05

Chapter 215: After being fucked by a traitor, Guan Ling feels comfortable!

In the early morning, after the first-day box office came out, it instantly blinded the eyes of countless industry insiders who were paying attention to the box office of these two movies.

"Painted Skin" grossed 1370 million yuan at the box office on its first day.

"Nanjing Nanjing" had a box office of 983 million yuan on its first day.

The industry is confused.

You co-wrote "Nanjing Nanjing" and did it like a blanket promotion, but in the end the box office was not as good as "Painted Skin"?

Everyone has been deceived by the illusion, because there have been a lot of announcements about "Painted Skin". During the confrontation between the two, "Painted Skin" has long been known to all audiences.

And "Painted Skin" is also a love movie.

Movie genre is so important to theatergoers.

Everyone goes to the cinema to consume, to have fun, to watch a romantic movie, to open their mouths, to move their hands, and to touch.

It's a waste of time, and the last row can do some bad things.

How could these people spend dozens of yuan in movie tickets to watch "Nanjing Nanjing"?

It's just that the starting tone of "Nanjing Nanjing" is too high, so people seem to feel that this movie is appearing in people's ears anytime and anywhere.

However, when the film schedule is similar, the people who watch movies in the afternoon and evening are the main force.

At that time, the reputation of "Nanjing Nanjing" was already extremely high on the Internet. How could the audience still use real money to test the drug?

In this way, these characteristics of the love magic movie, produced by Guan Ling Company, are enough for the audience to know what to choose.

But this box office result still confused those who care about this competition.

At Luc Chuan's home, Luc Chuan was very nervous when he saw the first-day box office.

Qin Lan looked at Lu Chuan's expression with confusion.

"Why are you frowning all the time? Isn't this box office within your expectations?"

"That's not what I'm worried about. What I'm worried about is the next few days. This guy Guan Ling is really not a human being. The words he said are obviously belittling my movie."

"Actually, there's nothing wrong with what he said." Qin Lan hesitated for a moment, then struck, "You've been stopping me from watching the film, and I didn't even know you had this effect. Speaking of the Japanese, we Everyone talks about little Japan and the Japanese, isn’t it because we all have a fixed impression of them in our hearts.”

"Are you Guan Ling's girlfriend, or mine?!" Lu Chuan roared, scaring Qin Lan into shutting up.

As a northeastern woman, Qin Lan can have sex with Lucuan.

But she knew that Lu Chuan was in a bad mood, so she was very sensible and did not continue.

Lu Chuan was still chattering.

"Other people don't understand, but you still don't understand? The Japanese don't recognize this period of history, so if I film it like this, won't they be able to accept it? Won't they recognize this period of history? I'm leaving a legacy for Chinese films. It’s a classic!”

Qin Lan's eyes almost rolled to the sky.

"For a nation that has not admitted that it has done this for more than 70 years, can your movie make them admit and face this history?"

Qin Lan whispered.

"An old man owes you money. If you coax him a few words, will he pay you back?"

After saying these words, Qin Lan leaned on the door and looked at Lucuan.

Lu Chuan looked at Qin Lan blankly and fell silent.

In fact, this first-day box office was acceptable to Lucuan.

But most importantly, there seems to be a problem with word-of-mouth.

Moreover, the comments made by Guan Ling and many people made Lu Chuan worried that the movie box office would suffer a collapse.

But Qin Lan's words didn't let Luc Chuan listen at all.

He just looked at Qin Lan's look and said angrily, "You said before that you were a non-marriage person, is that true?"

"of course it's true."

"I'm definitely going to get married." Lu Chuan said, "You'd better think about it."

With a "bang" sound, Qin Lan slammed the door and walked out.

Lu Chuan glared at Qin Lan's back, and then inexplicably went to the Internet to read the reviews of "Painted Skin".

"A very good film that I will never forget for a long time. Zhou Xun performed Xiao Wei's eccentricity to the extreme, from the selflessness of the first meeting, to the confusion when he saw Chen Kun's deep love for Yan Danchen, to the final emptiness of grief and despair. , all expressed bit by bit in the eyes.

Xiao Yi's roar, his promise to Mrs. Wang that he was the demon queen, and the little fox's explanation of "I am a demon, and I will grow old if I don't eat people." Perfect.

Bonus points for Chen Kun's handsome, 'I love you, but I already have Peiru', and seeing Xiao Wei's grief after she emerges.

The director's final scene turned out to be a white fox and a lizard cuddling together. Very emotional. "

"The editing is not smooth, and the first half seems to be a running story. But Zhou Xun's performance is the absolute highlight! In summary, it is worth watching!"

"It's not as good as Green Snake, but it's worth it. Especially when compared to "Nanjing, Nanjing", at least it's not as bitter and hateful as the one next door. Luc Chuan is really a complete traitor. When I went to see this movie in the afternoon, the theater was full of curses. "

Lu Chuan was flipping through the reviews of "Painted Skin" when he suddenly saw his name, and his forehead buzzed.

"Can the box office still exceed 100 million?"

Lu Chuan wanted to slap himself in the face at this time. How good would it be if he chose a time when no blockbusters were released?

Will this kind of reputation continue?

Can "Nanjing Nanjing" be any better?

……

"Always pay attention to public opinion. If the attendance rate of "Nanjing Nanjing" drops significantly, the film schedule will be tilted towards "Painted Skin"."

The public opinion and box office on the first day made the theaters calm down, and soon, a unified narrative was arranged.

Even the Chinese movie star Mei Qin did not refute what the industry cinema CEO said.

Even though China Film Group was first, and the later stage of "Nanjing Nanjing" was invested by China Film Group.

But the primary purpose of theater chains is to make money.

……

Lingyun Media,

Jiang Wen is already here.

"You guys are so outrageous. I thought your company's movie could be crushed by a propaganda method like "Nanjing Nanjing"."

The expression on Jiang Wen's face is wonderful,

"I really didn't expect that I could lose just like this? What on earth did this guy Luc Chuan film?"

He hasn't gone to the movies yet, but just saw the news. Jiang Wen really can't understand it.

It’s okay if you can’t beat Guan Ling.

This propaganda method can't beat a Hong Kong director, he's really good...

"I only found out about it after reading the news online," Guan Ling said like a white lotus, "Who knows what he took a picture of."

"Don't act with me." Jiang Wen said, "You must have heard some rumors. Now that I think about the questions you asked at the premiere of "Xiu Chun Knife", it was obviously premeditated."

"I'm not, I didn't."

Guan Ling shook his head, but he couldn't help but smile.

"Forget it, I don't care whether you know it or not, but I came here today to see your expression."

"what expression?"

"Hollywood Academy level master has decided to lead the expedition to Cannes. Ang Lee, Director Guan, you can meet with him again this year."

Jiang Wen obviously wanted to watch the excitement.

"He wants to challenge for the Grand Slam titles of the Golden Bear, Golden Lion and Golden Palm. How does it feel to have familiar faces among his opponents?"

Guan Ling thought for a while and thought that Jiang Wen was talking about Ang Lee's new movie "Making Woodstock". This movie is the least famous among all Ang Lee's movies. The biggest reason is that Ang Lee made this movie. It's really bad.

This movie can be said to be a big boring movie, the jokes are not funny, the male protagonist has no expression, and the gay sex is not exciting at all.

The genre is also very niche.

The storytelling is poor.

I remember in my previous life I speculated that Ang Lee's film was made to cope with other people's problems, and that it was only admitted to Cannes because of Ang Lee's fame.

"No response? Are you so confident?"

Jiang Wen didn't see the excitement, and was obviously not in a high mood, "Today the Cannes Organizing Committee is going to announce the film list for each major section of the film festival. Don't you pay attention?"

"What should I pay attention to? Will my movie enter the main competition?" Guan Ling said calmly.

Jiang Wen was a little speechless. If it were another person saying this, with Jiang Wen's temper, he would have already taken advantage of it.

But Guan Ling said that bragging is not even considered! Nothing wrong with it at all.

Guan Ling is indeed not too worried. In his previous life, many movie lovers have evaluated all the Palme d'Or films since the inception of Cannes. In most people's votes, "Shoplifters" was a proper top eight player. .

So, whether it is Ang Lee or who? What does it matter?

Jiang Wen stopped talking and was making tea in the office.

He just glanced at Guan Ling from time to time. Don't tell me, this guy is really calm.

Two fifty in the afternoon.

The film lists of various major sections in Cannes were completely announced, and it immediately became the hottest topic in the entertainment industry.

Even if he scolded Lu Chuan, he just stepped aside.

All eyes were turned to Cannes.

The announcement of this film list also means that this year it has completely entered the atmosphere of the three major European film festivals.

"Shocked, the 62nd Cannes Film Festival has announced the film list! Among the 20 films in the main competition, five films were shot by Chinese directors!"

"Catching up with the last train to compete for the Palme d'Or in Cannes, can Guan Ling's "Shoplifters" create new glory for Chinese-language films?"

"Guan Ling's "Shoplifters" leads the way, and Johnnie To's "Revenge", Tsai Ming-liang's "Face", Lou Ye's "Spring Breeze Evening", and Ang Lee's "Making Woodstock" are all selected for the main competition!"

"Shu Qi has become a feature film judge at the Cannes Film Festival and will rate five films."

"Zhang Ziyi has been selected as a judge for the Cannes Short Film Competition! He will go to Cannes with Guan Ling, Shu Qi, Lou Ye and others!"

Not only Chinese-language films, but also Asian films performed particularly strongly this year. Filipino director Brillante Mendoza's "Kinat" was also selected for the main competition, as was Korean director Park Chan-wook's "Bat", and Israel's "The Time Left Behind" by Ilya.

As soon as the news came out, not only China, but the whole of Asia was shocked.

Among the 20 films in the main competition, seven were produced by Asian directors.

Domestic media are reprinting and reporting frantically, and the official media of the movie channel directly sent people to interview Guan Ling and others, claiming that they will go to Cannes and live broadcast the entire process.

Movie channels are ready to move because they seem to sense a little anticipation.

There are so many Chinese-language films this year, maybe there is really a chance to win the Palme d'Or? !

"I said, you are really calm."

Jiang Wen came to see the fun and found that Guan Ling looked at the competitors with no worried expression at all.

Feeling bored.

This Guan Ling is really convinced, he can't even say "fuck".

Jiang Wen felt so bored that he left after chatting for a few words.

……

There is more and more news about this year's Cannes.

Pedro Almodóvar, Lars von Trier, Ken Loach, Michael Hannick, a large gathering of European masters; Ang Lee takes command, a luxurious expedition, accompanied by Quentin; in the Chinese-speaking world, Guan Ling has already Being nominated by the industry to take the lead, he has to unite the three places across the Taiwan Strait and lead Lou Ye, Johnnie To, and Tsai Ming-liang to go hand in hand. The atmosphere in the entertainment industry has become upscale in an instant.

The sense of anticipation is instantly heightened!

The domestic debate over "Nanjing Nanjing" has become increasingly exaggerated in various academic institutions and universities.

It's very popular, but it basically has a negative impact on the box office.

As a result, the movie's box office performance became worse and worse. Lu Chuan accepted many interviews in an attempt to save his life, but the effect became worse and worse.

China Film Group saw that something was not right, and immediately organized relevant personnel to conduct a seminar on the film, hoping to win back the hearts of the audience through the dictation of scholars.

But it's too late.

As Guan Ling's new work was selected for Cannes, Guan Ling's words once again swept the major online media.

At the same time, last year's slap swept all major online media.

last year,

"Detective Dee: The Empire" premiered in Cannes to build momentum for Chinese-language films.

Guan Ling went to France to promote.

At the Cannes scene, when the American actor insulted the earthquake in Sichuan Province, Guan Ling slapped him and put him on the global hot search list.

The incident once caused a global ban on Sharon Stone!

at the final closing ceremony.

At that time, Guan Ling was selected as the award guest, on the best short film award stage at Cannes.

He was joked by the moderator and questioned by the forum.

They questioned why Guan Ling dared to stand on the stage and be the award guest since he had never won an award in Cannes.

At that time, Guan Ling told everyone in Cannes.

"These people shouldn't dare to say this in front of me, because I know how to hit people." This caused a burst of laughter.

Then he told everyone seriously.

"However, since everyone has doubts, I will come here next year to say hello to everyone."

And now, he is really here!

This greeting appeared.

Among the twenty films that have appeared in the main competition section of Cannes, they are about to compete for that great honor!

Relevant incidents were sorted out, and Guan Ling instantly became the focus of everyone in the industry.

Some people who don’t pay attention to movies were instantly ignited by this story!

"I said I wanted to come to Cannes, so I'm going to come!"

This topic has aroused countless likes, excitement, and excitement!

Together with Guan Ling's comments on related historical events in the past two days, it once again topped the search list for all topics every day.

"I think if a movie were to capture this incident, it would be fundamental to condemn the Japanese.

Every piece of history deserves to be remembered, but it is never the victims who should reflect on them. "

Guan Ling, he has always been like this!

Say anything!

Just do what you say!

In Cannes, when someone insulted the Chinese people, he slapped him directly.

He said he was going to Cannes to say hello, and he actually went this year.

As for Japan's evaluation, what's wrong with Guan Ling's evaluation?

Who should reflect?

He's Japanese!

So, Lu Chuan, your movie should be released in Japan!

It should be released in all-day theaters in Japan!

Everyone figured out the logic.

within the next time.

The box office of the movie "Nanjing Nanjing" collapsed across the board!

Due to the popularity brought by Guan Ling, the movie "Painted Skin" produced by Lingyun Media instantly became the choice of more viewers!

inside the cinema,

There was an endless stream of viewers of "Painted Skin".

The movie "Painted Skin" was released for 6 days and the box office exceeded million.

At this time, the box office of "Nanjing Nanjing" was less than 40 million.

The industry is confused.

China Film was also confused.

The audience was applauding.

Except for the investors and main creative staff of "Nanjing Nanjing", everyone is comfortable!

Guan Ling saw the relevant news, lay on the chair in his office, and let out a long breath.

It does feel a little comfortable to fuck the traitor down!

"Comfortable! I finally got rid of something that I couldn't even see in my previous life! Go to the toilet and cry! Go try to see if you can win the grand prize at the Tokyo Film Festival! Director Lu Yamato Minzu Sichuan!"

Guan Ling feels so good!
