The King of Huayu Science Fiction

Xiamen, Strait Grand Theater.

Chen Jingxing led the main creative lineup of "[-]" and walked slowly across the red carpet facing the flashing lights.

The annual Golden Rooster Awards Ceremony is an opportunity for exposure of various film and television projects.

Dreamworks not only came to the Golden Rooster Awards this time, not only the main creators and nominees of the shortlisted works, but also the main creators of several film and television dramas came to show their faces and blog about the page.

Liu Shishi, Zhu Yawen and other main creative actors took the blockbuster drama "Elysium" which will be launched in December on the red carpet.

In addition to Chen Jingxing's "[-]", Wu Jing also brought the leading actors of "Spike III" onto the red carpet.

Although "Spike III" is still far away from being released, it is still necessary to expose it from time to time.

Including some movies that have already announced their releases or intend to set their releases for the Spring Festival, you and I set foot on the red carpet one after another.

Because of the end of the Golden Horse Awards, this year's Golden Rooster Awards are extraordinarily bright, and the red carpet time is longer than last year.

Even though Chen Jingxing came late, he could only enter the theater after finishing the interview, and waited boredly for the awards ceremony to start.

Ning Hao ran to Chen Jingxing and sat down.

"Old Ning, look at your happy face, when will you pay me back the meal you owe me?"

"How can you be so majestic, when will I owe you a meal?"

"Hey, you are earning more and more money, and you are becoming more and more like Grandet? The box office of "Youth" has exceeded 34 billion. Is it worth treating me to a meal?"

"After the awards are presented, please rub your hands, okay."

There is a reason for Ning Hao's happy face. If you want to say that the biggest winner of the National Day file is "My Youth and Me".

Ning Hao is not only the chief director of this gift platter movie, but Bad Monkey is also one of the main producers. The other two producers are United Cinemas and Penguin Pictures.

Originally, in the forecast before the National Day file, "My Youth and Me", as the second seed player in the National Day file, was expected to have a box office of about 20 billion to 25 billion.

As a war masterpiece with an investment of [-] million yuan, "King Kong River" is also blessed with the achievements and fame of Guan Hu's previous work "Eight Hundred Revelations". With the addition of first-line actors such as Zhang Yi and Deng Chao, it is naturally a part of the National Day file. number seed.

Originally, Ning Hao had no intention of competing. After all, there is indeed a gap in production cost and volume between the two sides. As a tribute film to the Korean War, "King Kong River" has also received vigorous publicity from the official media and the government, and it is the protagonist who does its part.

Unexpectedly, after the release of "King Kong River", it would trigger a rapidly fermenting and extremely intense storm of public opinion. The negative news and almost the whole network's voice of boycott made everyone a little dazzled.

But in this case, "My Youth and Me" naturally became the biggest winner.

Ning Hao, United Cinemas and Penguin Pictures were almost in a hurry to temporarily increase the publicity budget while eating melons and watching the movie, and finally bit off a big piece of "King Kong River".

Originally, according to the predictions of the previous pre-sale and ticket purchase platforms, if the film market can be driven, then "King Kong River" will be 30 billion plus, and "My Youth and Me" will be 20 billion plus.

As a result, "King Kong River" was quickly cut down due to the boycott of public opinion and the "low-key handling" of the competent authorities, and finally ended dismal, with a cumulative box office of less than 12 billion.

Before the seven days of National Day were over, the No. [-] seed player was left with a single-digit lineup and was struck out.

"My Youth and Me" quickly ate up the lineup of "King Kong River" - there are no heavyweight movies in the National Day file except for the two giants. With a volume of 60 billion, there is not much meat at all, so there are only a few small and medium-cost films that are ready to drink soup under the situation of confrontation between the two powers.

As a result, the total box office of "My Youth and Me" exceeded 34 billion in one month, which was 10 billion more than the original estimated box office out of thin air.

Of course, the basis for "Youth" to become the biggest winner is that the quality of the movie is really decent.

Assorted movies actually have an advantage, that is, each story may only last a dozen, two or 10 minutes. The difficulty of making a short film basically complete is much lower than that of a feature film, and the difficulty of script creation is much less.

The rhythm of short stories will be more compact, and the logic will be less prone to errors.

A small idea may be able to develop a ten-minute story, but one or two ideas are not enough to produce a 90-minute or even 120-minute story.

Feature-length screenplay content has to be compelling enough to keep viewers interested, and it has to master the art of rhythm more to stay engaging.

The screenwriter needs to add more twists, misleading, and clues to keep the progress of the story, neither showing the cards too quickly, nor making the audience wait too long.

As a result, many short films feel wonderful and talented once they start creating feature films, the turnover rate is extremely high, or it may make the audience feel that they have lost the wonderful plot tension in the short film, falling into a boring or weak follow-up situation.

Moreover, as long as one or two stories in the platter movie can surprise the audience, as long as the remaining stories are not too bad, the audience can have a better viewing experience.

Therefore, "Youth"'s current box office of more than 30 billion is not bad. The quality and word-of-mouth have also played a big role. Of course, it is also inseparable from the traffic stars in the movie.

But if nothing happened to "King Kong River", it would be basically impossible for "Youth" to get such a result.

So Ning Hao really had to thank Chen Jingxing.

"You are so majestic now, as strong as Qin Wuye back then."

After exchanging pleasantries for a while, Ning Hao touched Chen Jingxing's shoulder and said intriguingly.

Chen Jingxing was sitting upright, but from the corner of his eye, he could detect that many people were watching him secretly, and even noticed that someone was talking about him in a low voice, so he couldn't help shaking his head with a wry smile.

Although he brought down "King Kong River" and even caused Jingying to stumble, although he and DreamWorks have always kept clear of their relationship with this matter and never ended directly, this world is not an abstract legal provision. Things don't need evidence.

Naturally, he and DreamWorks cannot escape the attention and attention, so since the National Day file, he has been immersed in filming, trying to weaken his presence. The more you attack the target, the more low-key you have to be.

It can be said that today's Golden Rooster Awards Ceremony is the first time he has appeared in public in a month.

You can really feel the change in atmosphere.

After all, "King Kong River" and Jingying fell too badly, too fast.

Even Ning Hao looked at his junior with admiration.

"Using a popular Internet vocabulary to describe it, you are like a wolf."

In order to get revenge for being robbed of the National Day file, and to kick out the number one seed player "Raid the White Tiger Group" in next year's Spring Festival file, which was already close to being a sure thing, to make way for his own movie, he created such a wave of thunderous excitement. People, especially in the industry, only feel horrified attacks.

This kind of ruthlessness is impossible not to make people look sideways.

Even Ning Hao, as the biggest beneficiary of this wave of incidents, felt a little chilly. Previously, it was not uncommon for domestic entertainment stars to smear each other with cruel methods.

However, everyone has never seen such a method of directly flooding a high-profile and major gift war film, and even causing a big studio to suffer such a big loss.

Not only is the method unique, but the operation is ruthless, and it is also quite courageous.

Chen Jingxing rolled his eyes: "Okay, don't make fun of me, maybe retribution will come soon."

Naturally, this method will not be without sequelae.

Of course, there is no need to mention offending the leaders, especially for "King Kong River", which involves ideological attacks, the authorities will definitely not feel comfortable, and even created a huge risk for them, so that the film bureau simply chose Abandon the pawns and save the handsome.

In addition, a seed player in the film market suddenly fell, and other films including "Youth" could not fully eat the vacated market.

Therefore, compared with last year's box office in October, the box office of this year's National Day stalls showed a negative growth. The total box office in October last year exceeded 10 billion, but this year it is only 10 billion.

Naturally, the authorities will not be happy.

In addition, after this wave of incidents, the higher authorities have strengthened the review of unfinished gift films, which also offended many companies in the industry, even Ning Hao in front of him.

Ning Hao came to the Golden Rooster this time to promote his works. In addition to the movie "Once Upon a Time in the Tropics", which was produced by Bad Monkey and supported by the new director's project, which finally passed the review after a year, there is also a gift film for the centennial celebration that is about to start. The main theme movie "Miracle" tells the story of Shenzhen's entrepreneurship.

The Film Bureau has to re-examine the scripts and finished films of all gift projects that have not yet obtained a certificate.
