What kind of bad thoughts can the director have?

Chapter 126 Chinese Romance Movie Box Office Champion

"Love for Rent" was filmed in a villa area in the western suburbs of the capital. The developer was a friend of Wang Xinjun, and by the way, he also helped with advertising.

In addition to Empress and Jin Dong, there is also Empress's test-tube child in the play. There are also many scenes, and the child star Zou Qi is used.

This little actor was introduced by my mother. He just played the role of the childhood brother Chao in the movie "The Villainous Angel", and now he will play her son.

The story of "Love for Rent" takes place in the future world. It seems that there will always be some moths in the future. The sex ratio is out of balance and non-marriage is prevalent. Children are basically born through test tubes, and the heroine's children are made through test tubes.

One day, in order to make her children happy, the heroine brought back a handsome and gentle robot father. The harmony of yin and yang really brought a different kind of warmth to the family.

After the rental period expired, the mother and son reluctantly went to the rental company again, and were shocked to find that not only the father was a robot, but the hostess and the child were also robots. Everything that happened was just a product test.

After all, in such a society, some families need robot fathers, while others need robot mothers or children. The so-called warm family life is just a company testing the authenticity of robots integrating into real life.

The reason why Yang Shu filmed this episode first was not only to cooperate with the empress in terms of time, but also because there were some special effects about the future world and robots in the later stage, so I started working on it as soon as the filming was over.

Niangniang and Brother Xiaochao are very close, playing on the lawn of the villa during the lunch break.

Yang Shu watched from a distance, and talked with Luo Xue on the phone in an empty corner.

"The Love Letter When Peking Meets Seattle" has been confirmed to be released on April 4?"

"Basically, you've heard of this movie?"

"I watched "Peking Meets Seattle", and I heard that a sequel was going to be made some time ago, but I didn't expect it to be done so soon."

"Our "Heavenly Love Letter" dragon mark has not yet been released, and the schedule cannot be officially arranged. I have been paying attention to the plans for each month. I didn't expect to find out that this one was added today."

Now it seems that the producers of "Peking Meets Seattle: A Love Letter" should have the same thinking as Yang Shu, and also believe that the date of April 4 has the weakest competition.

The gunfight film "London Has Fallen" was released at the same time. Yang Shushang had also seen it.

"Heavenly Love Letter" has not yet applied for the schedule, so of course you can choose again. The meaning of Luo Xue's call is this: "Two romance movies about love letters are colliding. Let's change the time?"

In 2013, "Peking Meets Seattle" was a big success, with a box office of 5.2 million, surpassing the 33 million of "Broken Love 3.2", topping the box office champion of Chinese romance films, and it has remained so far.

The box office of 5.2 million is not as good as any of Chao Ge's so-called bad movies, but it has become the best record for a domestic romance movie.

Chen Kexin's famous work "Sweet Honey" is actually a romance film with higher achievements. It was released in Hong Kong in the 90s with a box office of more than 2000 million. Last year, the restored version was released in the mainland, and the box office was only more than 1000 million.

"Peking Meets Seattle" is about Tang Wei, an unmarried and pregnant woman who went to a confinement center in the United States to wait for delivery. Unexpectedly, her rich boyfriend lost contact with her and abandoned her. When she was desperate, she ran into a famous doctor in China. Now she is in a confinement center in Seattle. The driver Wu Xiubo, and the two down-and-out people in a foreign country wiped out the spark of love.

"Peking Meets Seattle: The Unique Love Letter" is a series of works, produced by the original crew, but the story starts from scratch.

Yang Shu has seen this movie before, although I don't remember the box office very clearly, it seems to be 7 or 8 yuan, but it must exceed the first one and set a new record for domestic love movies.

The film tells that Tang Wei immigrated to Macau with his father and became a casino publicist, while Wu Xiubo lived in Los Angeles and was a real estate agent.

The two began to communicate with each other through a book sent by mistake and handwritten letters. Hongyan's communication went from complete strangers at the beginning to opening each other's hearts step by step, and then communicating with each other.

In the process of exchanging letters, although they each had several romances and passed each other several times in Las Vegas, London and other places, they still fell in love with each other and met together in the end.

This film has a strong lineup. Tang Wei had fruitless relationships with the academic Lu Yi, the rich man Wang Zhiwen, and the poet Zu Feng.

Comparing "Love Letters from Heaven" and "Love Letters from Two", you will find that although the two films are completely different in conception, style, and content, they both unfold the plot through the exchange of letters between the two protagonists, which is quite similar.

When they were together, Yang Shu was in a bit of a dilemma. Of course, the most powerful choice was knowing that there are tigers in the mountains and going to the Tiger Mountains, but he decided that he would never retreat on April 4th.

This has an advantage, if "Fu Er Love Letter" is killed in the PK, "Heavenly Love Letter" will not only have a good box office, but also become famous.

After all, this is the screen debut of Yang Shu, Liu Man and Jiang Shiyu. The championship series starring many famous directors and first-line stars will undoubtedly reach the top in one battle, which is of extraordinary significance.

But this is very risky, and it is not a wise move. If two romantic movies compete for the box office at the same time, everyone's income will shrink. Besides, if the schedule of "Love Letter from Heaven" exceeds "Love Letter from Two", the effect will be the same, but less A little dramatic.

It is definitely not possible to adjust it later, because the ideas are similar, and whoever is released later will suffer, and word of mouth will have an impact, and it is almost meaningless if it wins.

So Yang Li immediately decided: "Then let's move to the same schedule as "The Hunting God" on April 4th, and it will be released 8 days earlier."

Luo Xue agreed with his opinion: "I think so too. Although I don't know their plot yet, but the title of the film is also related to the love letter, so it will be released earlier."

So the matter was settled like this. Yang Shu mentioned it to Liu Man and Jiang Shiyu afterwards, and they also had the same opinion. Since you have flexibility, don't be rigid. Wu Xiubo and Tang Wei are both first-tier big names, and the three of them will lose in terms of fame. There is more than one family.

However, many situations were not as ideal as Yang Shu thought. At the end of January, "Love Letter from the Kingdom of Heaven" passed the review without any suspense and got the dragon mark.

The publicity started immediately on February 2. Tiange Media released three posters, Liu Man, Jiang Shiyu and Yang Shu went online with three different styles.

In mid-February, Luo Xue informed Yang Shu that the schedule was set for April 2, so the first trailer was released on the same day, which was edited by Yang Shu himself.

Judging from the previous publicity, the effect is not bad, and the questionnaire survey shows that the expected value has reached more than 80.00%.

However, at this moment, the situation changed suddenly, and the schedule of "Fu Er Love Letter" was suddenly adjusted, and it was also adjusted to be released on April 4.

New films are usually released on Fridays, and the 8th and 29th are both Fridays. Even if the file needs to be changed for some reason, the 15th and 22nd do not have to be changed to the 8th, which is obviously intentional.

Luo Xue was also a little angry on the phone: "I'm afraid they also considered that they were all love letters as clues, and they suffered a disadvantage when they sent them later, and the earlier schedule was too late to adjust, so they changed it to the same period as us!"

It seems that the other party is also very capable, and did not take "Heavenly Love Letter" seriously.

Although there is still one and a half months before the release, and it is possible to adjust the schedule in the future, the effect of the previous publicity is greatly reduced, and it is obviously because of the star effect of the other party.

Yang Shu was calm: "I won't change it. It's impossible to change it forward, and it's meaningless to change it in the future. That's why the mule is a horse and go out for a walk."

Luo Xue also agreed to fight to the death. On March 3, "Heavenly Love Letter" released two posters for White Valentine's Day, and the beautiful artistic conception was well received.

On the same day, "Fu Er Love Letter" also released two posters of the sweet version of White Valentine's Day, and the response was quite good.
