Chapter 914 The Box Office King (4100+ chapters, please subscribe~)

In the Fengge Cinema in Wangfujing, Wu Jianye and Feng pants were sitting in a corner of the theater watching a movie.

What was shown in the movie was a martial arts movie, a movie that Wu Jianye had never seen before, and presumably it was also a movie that came out of the butterfly effect caused by Wu Jianye's appearance.

The reason why I watch this movie with Feng Trousers is because this movie beat Feng Trousers' first movie "Never Lost My Love"
The first movie of Feng Pants's ambition, because the premiere was quite a sensation, the box office in the first three days was indeed the best, but it was only the first three days, and then the domestic movies were like a blowout, quickly Several films have been produced, both by studios and by private film companies.

And now this martial arts film was launched at that time. The film director is someone Wu Jianye has never heard of, and the actors are all newcomers, but it is such a film. the domestic film market.

This movie is now at the end of its release, and there are only a few theaters left, but the box office of this movie has exceeded 3000 million so far!

For a new director and a non-governmental film company, this is already a very good result!
It is impossible for the films of other domestic directors to have a 100% screening rate like Wu Jianye. At the beginning of this film, the screening rate was not high, but as the box office got better and better, Fengge Cinema The film placement rate given is also getting higher and higher.

In the end, it surpassed Feng Pants' "Never Lost My Love"!
And today Wu Jianye was pulled by Feng Pants to watch this movie!
"You don't complain about losing. This director named Wang Tao should have studied Hong Kong films and the movie "New Dragon Inn" before. Although his storytelling techniques are not as good as yours, his story is very attractive. Although the structure of the story is not that rigorous, but there are jokes and fights, which can attract ordinary audiences!" Wu Jianye whispered to Feng Trousers.

This movie is called "The Wind and Cloud of the Sword", and the story it tells is actually a bit old-fashioned. It's a story about the young protagonist being wiped out by someone, and then he learns the art to avenge his revenge!

There are some routines of martial arts novels, but now martial arts novels are not outdated, and this routine is not outdated. In addition, the director named Wang Tao added a lot of jokes in it. Although these jokes are somewhat like Hong Kong movie routines, but this At that time, Hong Kong movies were very popular in China.

So the performance of the movie is not too bad!
On the other hand, Feng Pants's movie is a bit hypocritical. On the whole, it looks a little suffocating, but this movie is a movie that makes people feel good from the beginning to the end.

Feng Kuang smiled wryly. Although his movie failed at the box office, he knew that his shooting techniques and storytelling techniques were higher than Wang Tao, but he lost to him at the box office.

"Mr. Wu, is this the difference between the commercial film and the literary film you mentioned?"

Wu Jianye laughed, which aroused the dissatisfaction of other audience members in the hall. Wu Jianye quickly waved his hands to express his embarrassment, then lowered his voice and said to Feng Trousers: "Your "Forever Lost My Love" can be regarded as literature and art. A movie? At best, it’s a fake Wenqing movie!”

Feng Pants' face was a little ugly when Wu Jianye complained about it, but he still let out a long sigh. The first movie he directed failed at the box office, obviously he didn't expect it, if Wu Jianye hadn't expressed his disapproval before His trust, it is estimated that Feng Pants' heart will be more fragile.

"Mr. Wu, I don't think you're worried at all. This movie was made by another film company!" Feng Pants calmed down his mood and asked with some doubts.

Although the new film company and the new blockbuster movie will not cause any blow to Wu Jianye himself, it will be a big blow to Tangting culture.

Wu Jianye chuckled and said, "Although Tangting Culture's dominance can drive the domestic film market, it's not as fast as a hundred flowers blooming. I even hope that there will be more new film companies and new directors like this!"

Regarding this point, Wu Jianye did not lie, he really thought so, Wu Jianye has never forgotten his original intention, it is not his personal success, but the success of the entire Chinese film, and now this The release of this martial arts movie just gave Wu Jianye more confidence.

If even with its own appearance, Huaxia's movies are still like another time and space, and it is really meaningless if only those people follow the steps. Only when a new film company comes out, a new director, and a new actor appear, can it be possible Really bring out Chinese-language movies.

The original people plus these new people, this is the real development!
What's more, the filming of this new movie is actually inseparable from the dignified culture in many places. For example, their costumes and props were customized in Guyi Props, and the shooting location was in Hengdian Film and Television City.

The theater where it was shown was Fengge Cinema.

Even He Qing, the female number one they use, is an actress of dignified culture!

What is there to worry about?

Feng Pants gave a thumbs up and said, "Great!"

Wu Jianye chuckled, and didn't say anything to Feng Trousers, but sat there and began to enjoy the movie he had never seen before.

As Wu Jianye said, with the success of this "Sword of Swordsman", domestic film companies have begun to invest more in filming, but there are still some focus, for example, everyone has seen this "Sword of Swordsman" now With the success of the film, a swarm of bees started shooting martial arts movies!

This is actually a drawback of the film industry. When the Xiangjiang film industry was developing, this situation also happened. For example, the early release of "Mr. Zombie" made Xiangjiang's film companies start to shoot zombie-themed movies. The success of "God of Gamblers" is another swarm of gambling movies.

At that time, movies such as Gambler and Gambler were also emerging in an endless stream.

These have led to the decline of movies with this theme. After Lin Zhengying, Xiangjiang's zombie-themed movies have completely declined, and only the three IPs of the God of Gamblers, the Saint of Gamblers, and the Gambler can survive in the gambling series.

Wu Jianye didn't want martial arts movies to decline like this, so he told Huang Jianxin in the later stage to notify the domestic film companies that Fengge Cinemas would plan to restrict the release of martial arts movies in Fengge Cinemas. I also contacted China Film Group and jointly issued this unspoken rule that is not a rule.

However, after this rule came out, it also made Wu Jianye bear some infamy, such as monopolizing the market and so on.

But he doesn't care about eating Wu Jianye. What he wants is the healthy development of the domestic film industry, not the abnormal development.

However, because of Wu Jianye's decision, some other domestic joint theaters saw hope and released some shoddy martial arts movies one after another. As a result, martial arts movies almost became historical dust in just over a year. It was not until the release of "Flying Swords of the Dragon Gate", which had been in production for two years, that the decline of martial arts movies was restored.
But this is all for later.

Now Wu Jianye and Feng Pants walked out of the theater after watching the movie.

"Mr. Wu, I'm going to go to Master Shuo to study the script of the new movie. Do you want to come with me?" Feng pants asked, he hoped that Wu Jianye could go together.

During this period of time, Feng pants has been studying the script of the new movie with Wang Shuo, but the status and status of the two are fundamentally different. Wang Shuo has more unconstrained ideas in the script, while Feng pants hopes that the story can be more complete , The two often had some disputes, but Feng Pants had no way to persuade Wang Shuo, and in the end he could only modify the script according to Wang Shuo's wishes.

If Wu Jianye can pass, he believes that Wu Jianye will support him even more. After all, Feng Pants thinks that he is more professional than Wang Shuo when it comes to filming!

But Wu Jianye was doomed to disappoint him, and said with a smile: "I'll forget it, you guys go figure it out yourself, I have to meet someone else this afternoon!"

Feng Pants asked curiously: "Who is it, and you have to meet him in person?"

Wu Jianye smiled and said, "A very interesting actor!"

Feng Pants said helplessly: "Alright then!"

After speaking, the two separated, Feng Pants went to find Wang Shuo, and Wu Jianye returned to Tangting Culture.

In Wu Jianye's office, Tan Yang brought the actor Wu Jianye wanted to meet!

In fact, you can't call the other party an actor yet, but you should call the other party a martial arts athlete!
And the other party has only acted in one movie so far, which is "The Last Emperor" directed by Wu Jianye, in which he plays Pu Yi in his youth!
"Ah Jing, congratulations, you have won the champions of spear and sparring in the National Martial Arts Competition."

The actor Wu Jianye wants to meet today is none other than Wu Jian, who later created a series of movie box office myths.

This year Wu Xi can be said to have reached the pinnacle of his martial arts career, winning two championships in domestic martial arts competitions in the elite spear and sparring.

And Wu Jianye called Wu Xie this time, in fact, he wanted Wu Xie to follow his senior brother Li Lianjie's old path and enter the film industry.

Wu Chen's acting career can be said to be ups and downs. When director Zhang Xinyan was preparing to shoot "Kung Fu Boys Breaking Through Love", he went to the martial arts team to pick actors. Hidden, Zhang Xinyan and martial arts instructor Yuan Baye picked a circle and left without finding a suitable one, but they also knew that Wu Bin must have hidden all the good seedlings.

So I found Wu Bin here, and invited Wu Bin to eat dumplings. During a meal of wine, Wu Bin recommended Wu Jing, which he treasured, to Zhang Xinyan and Yuan Baye. He successfully entered the entertainment circle and starred in his first movie "Kung Fu Boy Breaks into Love".

Later, he starred in TV series such as "Wabbing Blood and Asking the Sword", "Tai Chi Master", "Little Li Flying Knife" and so on.

It can be regarded as the pinnacle of his debut, but later Wu Chen did not find a suitable direction for himself, and coupled with the downturn in the domestic film industry, Wu Chen had to learn from Li Lianjie to enter Xiangjiang's film market, but at that time Xiangjiang's film market was also in trouble. After the downturn, Wu Yan once became a fringe figure in the film industry.

Later, he starred in the killer in "Slaying the Wolf". Although he didn't have many roles, he was amazing enough to return to the audience's attention. For a while, Wu Xie became the representative of the villain of Xiangjiang movies.

During that time, Wu Yan also felt the problem, and finally had no choice but to direct the film himself.

Many people think that the first movie directed by Wu Yan is "Wolf Warrior", but in fact, the first movie directed by Wu Yan is "Spike Fang", in which the heroine is the character in Wu Yan's "Wolf Warrior 2". That mistress!
The box office of "Spike Fang" was tepid, so Wu Yan had to switch to the TV drama circle and starred in the second part of "I Am a Special Forces", "Knives Out of the Sheath", which is considered to have found his own way of acting, and everyone knows "Wolf Warrior", which has been in preparation for three years, came out.

At the time of Wu Jianye's rebirth, Wu Jian had already become one of the most popular actors at the box office in China, but unfortunately he was a bit old after all.

"Director Wu, don't make fun of me!" Wu Yan said shyly.

Wu Jianye laughed and said, "I didn't mean to make fun of you. If you can win the championship of our country's martial arts competition, you are already a world champion!"

Wu Yan scratched his head and smiled, not knowing how to respond.

Wu Jianye also asked curiously at this time: "Ah Jing, I've always been curious, how good is domestic martial arts and Sanda?"

The debate about Chinese martial arts and actual fighting has never stopped in later generations, and Wu Jianye is also a little curious.

Wu Xie smiled and said: "We practiced routines, but in fact it is no longer a real martial art."

Wu Jianye continued to ask: "Then what is real martial arts?"

"True martial arts are actually killing skills. Now our country advocates practicing martial arts to strengthen the body. Those killing skills have long been banned, but I heard from our coach that in some areas of our country, there are still some families of martial arts! " Wu Xie explained.

And Wu Jianye also thought of Dai Zhen. Dai Zhen's father had also talked about this issue with Wu Jianye, but he was vague when he said it. He didn't say anything about many things related to the previous generation of their family.

Now it seems that there are still some stories!
Wu Jianye smiled and said, "Okay, let's not consider this matter. I asked your senior brother to call you over this time to ask you if you are interested in coming to Tangting Culture as an actor?"

Naturally calling Wu Chen here is not for the difference between routine martial arts and actual fighting, it is naturally to call Wu Chen into the movie circle!

After listening to it, Wu Xie's eyes brightened. After all, his age is not too young for a martial arts athlete, and he should consider his own future. What's more, the martial arts team has such a precedent as Li Lianjie!
"If Director Wu doesn't dislike it, I definitely have no objection." After finishing speaking, Wu Xie said with some embarrassment: "It's just the martial arts team?"

Wu Jianye smiled and said, "Don't worry, I'll solve the problem with the martial arts team!"

　Sorry for getting up late.
