Chapter 695

Zhou Xia was overjoyed. This was the news he wanted most. He thought it might take a month or two, but he didn't expect it to come true now.

"In that case, how did your talk with them go?"

"The intention has basically been reached, but some details are still being discussed, and some people are still hesitating."

"Then let them think about it. We are patient. For others who are willing to accept our conditions, you can just reach a contract with them. Is there anything else?"

Zhou Xia didn't know who was hesitating, or it was a plan to delay the attack, he was too lazy to care about this matter.

"By the way, tomorrow, no, today, our filming on Saturday will increase, almost reaching 50%." Zhang Zhao immediately reported.

"Well, that's good. After all, our movie set a box office record today. It's okay, I'll hang up, and I have to go to Yangcheng to promote it tomorrow."

"Okay, boss, that won't disturb your rest."

"Well, you should go to bed early too, bye."

After hanging up the phone with Zhang Zhao, Zhou Xia couldn't help but smile. The conditions he proposed were actually not harsh. From another perspective, they could also benefit those film and television companies.

They just sold part of the equity so that the equity representatives of Xiahua Film and Television could join their board of directors.

In this way, the other companies will basically not pose a threat to Xia Hua, and there will be no secrets at all. On the contrary, Xia Hua will cooperate with them in an all-round way, and everyone's interests will be bundled together, and everyone will not appear again. For his and Xia Hua's situation.

But those few bosses are reluctant to part with the power and temporary benefits, they still want to turn the tables against the wind and one day catch up with Xiahua Film and Television, this is not what Zhou Xia wants to see.

Moreover, his patience is limited. If those companies have not made concessions during the Spring Festival, he will consider playing his trump card.

If those trump cards are played out, it will not be a competition among several film and television companies, but will expand to a wider range, and the impact will be too great, and even involve his parents, family and so on.

This is the last thing Zhou Xia wants to see. Of course, he still has the confidence to defeat the opponent with the most positive means.

Such a big loss every day, plus future losses, is definitely not something this company can afford.

It’s almost the end of the year again, and listed companies have to pay dividends, and they have to explain to shareholders and shareholders. Even companies that are not listed have to give year-end bonuses, red envelopes, etc. to their employees.

If they don't compromise with Xia Hua, then this year will not be so easy for them!

After Zhou Xia figured it out, she regained her confidence and turned on Douban in front of the computer, intending to read the movie reviews and ratings.

The score of "New Detective" dropped from 9.1 points before the official release to 8.7 points.

"It's falling so fast, it seems that there are a lot of sunspots."

Zhou Xia took a quick look, and found that those accounts that directly came up with two stars and one star had almost no other movie reviews in their records, and they were obviously zombie accounts.

There are more than 2000 people who gave the ratings, plus some people who require the film to have cultural connotations, etc., and those who rated the film as three or four stars, the score will naturally drop.

However, for a commercial film, this score is already very high. As the number of viewers increases, the score should decrease.

Zhou Xia no longer cared about ratings, but went to see some highly praised movie reviews.

"A new generation of Kung Fu Emperor is born!"

Ha ha, this title is crazy enough.

Zhou Xia was immediately aroused and read this film review carefully.

""New Detective" was released, with a box office of 2.14 million on the first day, breaking the domestic first-day box office record again. This is Zhou Xia's greatest success as an action star and action director.

We can even proudly say that a new generation of Kung Fu Emperors has been born, and we will see more action movies that surprise us in the future.

In this era when special effects are flying all over the sky and Hollywood blockbusters are popular all over the world, there are still directors and actors who are so sincere in making Chinese action movies and getting such a high box office, which shows that our domestic audiences have not abandoned our traditional culture. They still like martial arts. , just need to be innovative and show greater sincerity.

Zhou Xia, Li Lianjie, Yuan Hua, Wu Jing, Zhao Wenzhuo and other action stars did not use traditional martial arts routines to perform for us. They used real Chinese kung fu with punches to the flesh, showing us the real combat power of actual martial arts, which is amazing. It looks bloody.

The whole movie does not have too many special effects to show off skills, let alone the 3D and imax versions that are popular today, but it gives us the same enjoyment as watching "Fist of Fury" back then.

As a successful director, Zhou Xia is of course good at these new technologies. "Painted Skin 2" has already shown it, as did "Sword" filmed early last year, but he chose to return to this shooting method, which shows that the film The tone from the beginning was to make a step-by-step 'action' movie.

Zhou Xia, while using new technology to shoot fairy tales and fantasy-themed movies, has not forgotten to try to combine modern themes, practice new directions for action movies, and carry forward traditional culture. Such good intentions are worth learning..."

Zhou Xia saw this, but didn't want to read any more.

This is a soft article, the whole article is touted..., but it did guess some of his thoughts, and getting such people's praise and recovery also shows that he really has something.

He browsed down and found another popular movie review with likes and high replies.

"Action movies never go out of style!"

"At the end of the movie, two policemen, Qin Shan and Lao Zhang, one new and one old, caught the Thai drug dealer Kunsang who wanted to escape by helicopter on the roof, handcuffed them, and looked down at the night view of the entire Xiangjiang River. A close-up of the two, a bloody Fang Gang, full of heroism, with a tired face and half-white hair, a new generation of superstars in action movies is inheriting, and a new genre of action movies has opened.

Maybe many people will say that this kind of genre film Xiangjiang has made many films in the last century, but I personally do not agree with this point. An action movie is so well integrated with modern life that people will not doubt it. , Questioning the authenticity, there are not many domestic ones.

"Muay Thai" series, "Ip Man" series, "Slaying the Wolf" and other popular action movies in recent years, the action scenes are already exciting enough, but the plot and shooting level cannot be compared with "New Detective".

Coupled with the leading role and influence, the box office performance is far inferior to "New Detective".

Action movies will never be outdated. Bloody battles are the genes that flow down the bones of human beings. I hope that more people will try to shoot more innovative action movies in this era of flying special effects, so that there will be more people with this theme. develop.

At present, Zhou Xia has already taken the lead in China, and Wu Jing’s military action movie "Wolf Warrior" has started filming for two months. Looking forward to his intestinal necrosis, more people will definitely join in in the future..."

Zhou Xia was looking at this, and suddenly heard the doorbell ringing, he was a little surprised, hurried outside, came to the door, and saw Sisi outside the door through the monitor.

Zhou Xia quickly opened the door and pulled her in.

"Sisi... how do you know this place?" Zhou Xia put his hands on Sisi's shoulders and asked, looking at him seriously.

His villa here, but not many people know about it.
