Chapter 525 Film Festival Three Nominations

On the contrary, the film schedule of "Painted Skin 2" has always been around 55%, and the film schedule on Saturday and Sunday in the first week even reached about 65%.

This is also an important reason why this movie can exceed [-] million for six consecutive days.

After all, with an average of more than 55% of the films scheduled every day and more than 22000 screenings, the box office results are not high and it is not justified.

Regarding this, Liu Yufei, who was newly signed to Xiahua, called Zhou Xia several times, her tone full of coquettishness and complaints.

Originally, although the reviews of "Four Famous Catchers" were not good, the box office performance was not bad.

It turned out that "Painted Skin 2" was released only three days after its release, and now it's over, the byte has fallen off a cliff!
The box office has only reached 1.1 million in ten days of release, and she has been ridiculed by many people again!
There was nothing Zhou Xia could do about it, so he could only try to comfort her, telling her to perform a good work in the future and just turn the situation around.

Only then did Liu Yufei feel relieved, and planned to cultivate for a while, waiting for Zhou Xia to arrange her works.

After the publicity ended, Zhou Xia started busy shooting green screen scenes every day at the Imperial Capital China Film studio.

And at night, he was busier than during the day, working until late at night, and after the end, he had to see Yaya, Yufei and the others who were recuperating.

In addition, he has to go back to the company from time to time to review new film projects, as well as the finished film, attend the company's film premiere, participate in some activities, and some film festivals.

Time passed quickly, more than two months passed.

In the blink of an eye, the autumn wind is blowing, and at the end of September, the Hundred Flowers Film Festival will be held every other year.

Zhou Xia was nominated for three awards this time, namely Best Actor, Best Director, and Best Screenplay.

Last year's Golden Rooster Awards, Zhou Xia also won these three nominations for "Charlotte", but in the end he got nothing, and instead won an additional Commercial Film Contribution Award.

This really made Zhou Xia very angry. It was simply saying that he only made money by making commercial films.

Therefore, this year he didn't want the company to sign up for the same Hundred Flowers Award, but under the persuasion of Zhang Zhao and others, and for the sake of the company's development, he finally applied.

Now that he has received such a nomination, Zhou Xia has to worry about the same result as last year, fearing that he and his movie will be so popular again!

Seeing that there were only a few days left before the awards ceremony, Zhou Xia still didn't agree to attend. He never wanted to go away on a high note and come back disappointed like last year, and was ridiculed by many media and self-media.

But as the Hundred Flowers Awards continued to communicate with him in the past few days, he was inevitably a little moved.

The nature of the Golden Rooster Awards predestined that a movie like "Charlotte Annoyance" would not be able to win an award. If you look at the types of films that have won awards in the past, you will know that "Charlotte Annoyance" is to accompany it.

Last year, he actually responded with expectations, which is really a bit whimsical.

The Hundred Flowers Award is a little different. This award is relatively less focused on the main theme and literary films, and more on following the trend of the times.

Moreover, the organizers have communicated with him on the phone several times recently, and even sent someone to discuss with him, repeatedly hoping that he will attend, which almost means that if you come, you will definitely get an award.

And it also made Zhou Xia believe in herself and the organizer.

Thinking of the upcoming National Day and Mid-Autumn Festival, Xia Hua's new movie "You at the Same Table" will be released, Zhou Xia finally agreed to attend this film festival.

For the time being, "Painted Skin 2" has not yet been released. After two months of screening, it has harvested 18.2 billion box office and set a new record. In order to hit the record of 20 billion, it has applied for the extension key twice in a row. Now it is still 1500 million at the box office to achieve this goal.

But "You at the Same Table" had to be released, and there are many movies in this schedule, as I have said before.

At the end of September, "Looper", "Tai Chi 1", "Double Exposure", and "Dangerous Liaisons" were all screened on three days at the end of the month.

After all, September 9th is the Mid-Autumn Festival. After the holiday, it happens to be National Day. It is a total of eight days of holiday. Of course, everyone is here for this golden time.

Although the successor of "Painted Skin 2" has been exhausted, after seeing these few films, how could Xia Hua miss such a good schedule, so "You at the Same Table" was included in the list.

On September 9, "You at the Same Table" held a grand premiere in Shanghai. On September 28, Zhou Xia went to Shaoxing to participate in the Hundred Flowers Film Festival.

Zhou Xia is used to this kind of busy schedule, he only left the imperial capital by plane at noon on the 28th.

The studio filming of "Legend of Sword and Sword 4" was faster than expected, but it will take at least one and a half months to complete.

If Zhou Xia hadn't always had various things to do and had to leave the crew, the filming would have been officially finished half a month earlier.

However, the filming of the upper part had already been finished in early September, and it had been handed over to Industrial Light & Magic for post-production special effects.

According to the contract time, the upper part of the special effects should be completed within 10 to 12 months.

As soon as Zhou Xia and his assistant came out of the airport's VIP channel, they got into the car picked up by the company when they saw Little Fox, Tangtang, and Sisi in the car.

"It seems that you are quite free, and you still have time to drive around." Zhou Xia looked at the three people who wanted to surprise him, and said honestly.

"Seeing how happy you are, it's really duplicity!" The little fox couldn't help complaining.

Tangtang smiled and said, "Zhou Xia, I have been nominated for Best Actress, and I will go to the Hundred Flowers Awards with you tomorrow."

"I know, I really didn't expect that you were nominated for "33 Days of Broken Relationship"." Zhou Xia sighed and looked at Sisi next to them.

Since the Hundred Flowers Awards judged the film and television works of the previous two years, he was nominated this time for "Charlotte Annoyance", and Sisi was also nominated for Best Actress

Before Sisi could speak, the little fox said, "Zhou Xia, you said which of the two of them will win the award. We were still discussing just now. If one of them wins the Best Actress, they won't be able to act in your movie next!"

"Really, the two of them agreed?" Zhou Xia couldn't help but look at Sisi and Tangtang amusedly. Of course, the little fox was so happy because she didn't get nominated anyway.

"The probability of the two of us winning the award is too low. The other three nominees are Li Bingbing, Mr. Zhou, and Xu Fan." Sisi said helplessly.

Of these three, Mr. Zhou was nominated for playing Ling Yanqiu in "Flying Armor of the Dragon Gate", Xu Fan was nominated for playing Li Yuanni in "Tangshan Earthquake", and Li Bingbing was nominated for playing Xu Zonghan in "The Revolution of [-]".

"That's right, you two really don't have any advantages." Zhou Xia replied casually with a smile.

If he remembered correctly, there were so many people, but this Hundred Flowers Award was finally awarded with the coat of arms and Bai Baihe.

After all, "Great Earthquake" won three awards this time, and we can't give all the awards to one film, so Xu Fan can rule it out. As for the other two, their acting skills are fine, but they are not short of awards. They have already won awards. , so Sisi and Tangtang really have a chance.

"Why are you smiling so weirdly, tell me what you think." Tangtang was not as unconfident as Sisi, but full of expectations.

And she has already decided to act in Zhou Xia's next literary film, even if she wins an award, it's not because she's joking that she won't count.

"Of course I hope you all win the prize!" Zhou Xia had no choice but to reply.
