This director is very reliable

Chapter 809 Fight! (twenty three)

No wrap-up banquet, no party...

After the filming ended, Shen Changlin bid farewell to the actors, and then returned to Los Angeles with the material.

The later part, especially the special effects, was handed over to the producers Jon Berger and Wen Ziren...

Well, the editing part is done!

It’s not uncommon to edit while filming. Now which movie doesn’t have a live edit?
The crew of "Knives Out" used the QTAKE system.

Usually on-site editing will use the monitor signal recorded by the video recorder as the material to cut. There are two unavoidable tasks in this process, one is to copy the video material from the recorder to the editing system, and the other is to It is still very time-consuming to conform the video material of the recorder to the real camera material!
The QTAKE system can not only read the camera's file name for the material, but also automatically synchronize the camera's power on and off signal and time code for recording, which means that group editing can automatically conform the material through the editing software, eliminating the need for conforming time and workload.

Apart from being too expensive, there is absolutely no downside to this thing!
The effect is good, Shen Changlin directly ordered two sets, ready to take back home...

Use one for yourself, and rent out the other!
Let me tell you something, Yuan Shikong, after the release of "Knives Out", the word-of-mouth and box office feedback were very good, and then the epidemic came, the producer Lionsgate ran out of money, and many scheduled projects were suspended. "Knives Out 2" Also in it…

Netflix then got an opportunity to snatch up the project.

Big bids: Netflix paid an estimated $4.69 million for the production and distribution rights to the two sequels.

4.69 billion dollars!
The director and the leading actor are each paid 50 million US dollars, which is equivalent to [-] million per film!
Why is it so high?

Traditional studios prefer to cooperate on a box office basis.

In this way, the cost pressure of the film studio will be reduced, the box office will increase, and the superstars will earn more money, so that the superstars will work harder and harder.

There is no such thing as click-through rate sharing in streaming media distribution, so it can only be paid according to a fixed salary.

If you want to give the usual 2000 million, or even 2500 million, the actors may earn less than before, so they will hesitate to do it.

If the price is doubled, no matter how well the filming goes, the actor can make a steady profit.

[-] million dollars in real money, why not?
……

In the mainland market, "The Iron Fist of Shame" has always maintained the single-day box office champion...

Even if "Blood Battle Hacksaw Ridge" and "Captain Sully" were released with good reputation, it still did not affect the market dominance of "Shameful Iron Fist"!
As of December 12th, "The Iron Fist of Shame" has been released for 15 days, with a cumulative box office of 15 billion...

If it continues, there is no suspense that the box office will break 20 billion.

Then The Great Wall came out.

Although the "Great Wall" in this time and space does not have the blessings of old schemers, Edward Zwick is also considered a famous Hollywood director-in 99, "Shakespeare in Love" directed by him defeated "Saving Private Ryan" and won the Best Picture Award…

In addition, "The Great Wall" entrusted the expectations of the four major producers of Lushi, Wanda, Universal, and China Film.

According to gossip, the Chinese market of "The Great Wall" is expected to start with a box office of 25 billion yuan.

On the first day of release, it lived up to expectations and killed "The Iron Fist of Shame", with a single-day box office of 1.15 million, plus 4800 million of screenings, the box office of the first day was 1.6 million!
The film arrangement is 47%...

"The Iron Fist of Shame" was cut down to only 88&, with a single-day box office of 1700 million, ranking third, followed by "Romantic Death History"...

Then, self-media began to work.

"The Great Wall, White Man Salvationism!" "

"Can you stop kneeling? "

"Speechless, another movie that dwarfs China for the purpose of collecting money"

Douban score 5.7...

Then the self-media account blasphemed the movie and said directly, 'Edward Zwick, how dare you make "The Great Wall"?Super bad movie! '

Then Zhang Zhao, who was despised, got angry and directly sent a lawyer's letter, saying that he would sue him!
The person in charge of the blasphemous film said: The editor of "Movie Handbook" also said the same thing about Robert Zemeckis who filmed "Allied Spies".If you can't even accept this little criticism, don't make a movie at all!
Take the moral high ground.

"The Great Wall" is of course terrible, the plot has no logic, the story is rotten, the characters don't stand up, the acting is awkward, the dialogue is stupid, the very few literary dramas are not interesting at all, the martial arts have no imagination, a useless movie...

But is "Pan Jinlian" good?

Critics praised the...

Li Xuelian broke the law, and she said it so confidently, the so-called camera sense, what can you see with the rounded corner lens?
Why did "Pan Jinlian" say nothing, but when it came to "The Great Wall", all kinds of blacks?
Zhang Zhao was very upset—after all, there was a thunderstorm at Laishi, Lei Jun stabbed Jia Yueting, and directly said that Laishi owed 150 billion yuan!

Then, LeTV changed from a capital star to a scandal star, Ponzi scheme, Delong family, market value evaporated, on the verge of bankruptcy...

All kinds of labels were thrown at Lu Shi's head!
The stock price of Leshi.com has fallen by more than 1/3 within two months, and the market value has evaporated by more than [-] billion yuan in just six trading days.

Leshi Films also belongs to the Leshi ecological chain.

"The Great Wall" can't afford to lose!

Therefore, Zhang Zhao was very angry when he saw a bunch of different treatment from the self-media...

Feeling a bit sick and rushing to the doctor...

No way, the word-of-mouth of "The Great Wall" has completely collapsed. Although relying on a strong lineup to win the box office of 4.2 million in the first weekend, the attendance rate is only half of that of "The Iron Fist of Shame" and "Hacksaw Ridge"...

Maoyan gave its forecast—total box office: 8.5 million!
The following week, two blockbuster films "Longling Miku" and "The Ferryman" will be released one after another...

The third week will also add "Railway Flying Tiger"...

The outlook is bleak...

As for "The History of Romantic Disappearance" released by Huayi, the box office hit the street...

This stuff is foreshadowing.

During the interview, Yan Ni asked Yuan Quan, and Yuan Quan also said that he could not understand.

Yuan Quan also said that he had communicated with the director, and the director said that this movie is not for people today, but for people in the next century.

You see, the director said that the film will be watched by the audience of the next century, so... the audience of the next century will pay for it!
You are shooting for the audience of the next century, why should the audience of this century pay?

Consume in advance?
mess...

But the whole industry seems to be full of flowers. Today "The Great Wall" announced to break the co-production box office record. Tomorrow, the premiere ceremony of "The Ferryman" will be held grandly. The day after tomorrow "Longmen Miku" will be screened in advance...

Large-scale screening?
It must be screened, "The Great Wall", "The Ferryman", and "Railway Flying Tiger", which one is more annoying?
"Railway Flying Tiger", Uncle Long just won the Oscar for Lifetime Achievement!

"The Ferryman", a love movie costing 3.5 million yuan, took ten months to shoot...

Who doesn't want to watch movies for the first time?

As for "Longling Miku", although "Exquisite Ancient City" is the first volume, but...whether the market will accept it, no one can say for sure.

Otherwise, "The Ferryman" wouldn't be fighting head-on.
