Chapter 459 Did you buy too many drafts?
In the two-month summer vacation, the biggest winner is undoubtedly the remote.

The two low-cost comedies "Rich Second Generation" and "Lucky Key" both broke through 3 million box office.

The former 3.11 million, successfully suppressed "Search" and "Four Famous Arrests".

With the golden combination of Ning Hao + Huang Bo, the latter has become the biggest winner of this year's summer file - 4.2 million box office.

If it weren't for the release of Hollywood blockbusters in the later period, it shouldn't be a big problem for "Lucky Key" to reach 5 million.

The total box office of this year's summer season is 48 billion, which is a little bit worse than the previous estimate of 56 billion.

But it also completed the [-] billion box office goal ahead of schedule.

For the first time in 10 years, the national total box office exceeded the [-] billion mark, and this achievement was completed ahead of schedule this summer.

But look at the results of each month.

Most of the ones that can sell money are Hollywood movies, and domestic movies are killed in front of Hollywood blockbusters.

There are only a few guaranteed profits.

Among them, the two comedies released remotely in the summer file performed most prominently!
With a total cost of less than 5000 million, it contributed 7 million box office for the entire summer file.

Unknowingly, small-budget comedies have become the magic weapon for long-term success. Those who are interested look at the movies that long-distance is shooting and are about to release, and find that romantic comedies account for a large proportion.

At the appreciation meeting after the end of the summer file, Jiang Xuerou, Chief Producer of Remote Media, said this about this issue:

"We studied the European market and found a very interesting phenomenon, from France to Germany to Italy and Spain, in the film markets of several relatively large countries in Europe, their local comedies are the most popular.

"This gave us inspiration. Local comedy has strong regional characteristics. It is even more irreplaceable and irreproducible. A good comedy can often play a role in fighting against the impact of Hollywood. Comedy is a very effective means to resist the impact of Hollywood.

"We have just started the industrialization of movies. If we make blockbusters head-on with Hollywood, the chances of winning are very small. Of course, I don't mean to stop making industrialized blockbusters. Before domestic blockbusters can compete head-on with Hollywood, should we continue to Explore other film genres."

…………

One fact has to be admitted: In terms of status in the industry, ten Liu Yifeis combined are not as high as Cheng Yu'an, but in terms of the number of fans and the appeal of fans, a hundred Cheng Yu'an tied together is not enough for the younger sister to fight alone.

Cheng Yu'an is the one behind the scenes, and has the popularity of a ghost.

The amount of fans on his Weibo is mostly due to the attention of Liu Yifei's fans on the face of the young lady.

This is also one of the few places where Liu Yifei has an absolute advantage over Cheng Yuan.

Therefore, Cheng Yu'an did not go to the premiere of "BJ Meets Seattle".

"Oh, he is preparing a new film, he is very busy, so he didn't come." Liu Yifei responded to the reporter's question on his behalf.

"In everyone's impression, Yifei has always been the image of a fairy sister. This is the first time to act in a comedy, right?"

"Yes."

"Then do you think the image of the fairy sister has any influence on the shaping of Wen Jiajia's character?"

Liu Yifei scratched her head: "Actually, I don't like people calling me Sister Immortal. I think that as an actor, I shouldn't just leave this impression on the audience."

"But the deepest impression of the character you left on the audience is indeed that of the fairy sister. Have you ever thought about why?"

"I wonder if you bought too many drafts, do you know?"

"Ah?" The reporters were taken aback by Liu Yifei's answer, "Yifei's answer is also very interesting. Let's go back to the movie "BJ Meets Seattle"..."

The reporter forced the topic back to the movie.

"Why did Yifei accept this movie?"

"One is that I have never acted in a comedy before, and I have always wanted to try it. I happened to have such a good opportunity, so I joined in."

"What about the second one?"

"Secondly, when "Pacific Rim" was delayed, Yu'an saw that I was too free, so she threw me to Director Xiaolu."

Xue Xiaolu took over the conversation: "We didn't plan to hire Yifei at first, because her salary was too high. Later, she read the script and wanted to act, so she took the initiative to lower her salary."

What Xue Xiaolu didn't say was that although Liu Yifei's salary was reduced, she still took 13% of the share.

Otherwise, the little money in "BJ Meets Seattle" is really not enough to pay Liu Yifei's salary.

"It's the first time for Yifei to play this kind of two-headed and nervous character. How does it feel?"

Liu Yifei joked: "It's very funny, it's my true nature. In fact, I'm almost like this in private. Sometimes I make jokes so that my friends around me hate me. If no one is playing, I will torture my assistant."

He laughed heartlessly as he said that.

Here comes the key question.

"You played a pregnant woman and a mother in the movie, did you gain anything?" The reporter first laid the groundwork, Liu Yifei didn't realize that there was a pit ahead.

"In order to prepare for this play, I deliberately learned a lot about maternity and parenting, and realized that being a mother is not easy. Mothers are really the greatest people in the world."

"Then, after learning about pregnancy and childbirth, will it help you in the future?" began.

Liu Yifei stared at the reporter with wide eyes. She really didn't expect to ask this, and said with a smile, "It must be useful."

"Then when are you and Director Cheng going to do it?"

"What to do? What to do?" Liu Yifei began to pretend to be confused, trying to get past it.

"Have a wedding, want a child." The reporter will not let Liu Yifei go like this.

As a model couple in the circle, everyone is waiting for the two to get things done.

Liu Yifei was very generous when talking about this: "Why are you all urging me to have a child."

"Who else urged?"

"My mother has been urging us to have children for the past two years."

"Mom wants to have a grandson." The reporter was dazzled, and almost let Liu Yifei get confused, and quickly brought the topic back, "Then do you plan to have children in the past two years?"

Liu Yifei saw that avoidance was inevitable, and finally said: "I have been very busy with work these past few years, so I have no plans for this for the time being."

This is not only Liu Yifei's own meaning - she still wants to act for a few years, and is not in a hurry to have children.

It was also Cheng Yu'an's idea that it would be a few years later to have a child.

At the premiere, two "competitors" of "North West", Yang Mi from "Tongque Terrace" and Yang Tianbao from "Tai Chi 1: From Zero" also came.

Yang Mi could still understand that Yang Tianbao really didn't expect to come.

When the reporter asked whether it was inappropriate for the two to give their "opponents" a platform, Yang Mi said:
"Yifei and I are good friends, and we haven't seen each other for a long time. Let's take this opportunity to have a good chat. The crew of "Tongque Terrace" doesn't mind."

Yang Tianbao said: "Yifei and I just met in Venice and had a good chat..."

Yang Mi's eyelids twitched, Xiaobian, playing this trick with her sister?
I just said that I haven't seen Yifei for a long time, but you said that I just met Yifei in Venice.

Why, it seems that the two of you have a deep relationship, don't you?
Standing by the side, Yang Mi glanced at Yang Tianbao, with a half-smile at the corner of his mouth, with a playful expression on his face.

She knows Liu Yifei well, and Liu Yifei only keeps superficial politeness to outsiders, and it is very difficult to get close to him.

Tianbao is afraid that his hot face is sticking to his cold ass.
