I really can't act

As mentioned earlier, in the past ten years, the proportion of domestic films has exceeded [-]% seven times, and seven out of ten wins, so the winning rate is very high.

But this statistic will not tell you that the last time I lost was in 10 years. I lost wildly. At that time, Fang Yi participated in the Magnolia TV Festival because of "My Group". Not very upbeat.

In 11, it was also a 53% narrow victory. If Fang Yi's movie is removed, it just happened to lose.

So which movies in the second half of the year are likely to turn the tide and win the team battle abruptly? The leader believes that Fang Yi can be the key man.

If in the second half of the summer, there will be a wave of Hollywood blockbusters, and they will fight each other, and they will be released immediately; and the Lunar New Year and National Day files will try their best to extend the release date, book the show to support, and buy tickets in good faith, then it is possible to win back. One game.

Even if this is the case, there is no way to get it back, at least some people say that the highest-grossing movie of the year is a domestic movie.

In this despair, there is hope, and better days are yet to come.

In the second half of the year, there are "[-]", "White Deer Plain", "Cold War" and "Zodiac", which may be released.

A normal person would choose "Zodiac", but the special effects resources of the base are quite tight, and "Zodiac" may not be produced in time. According to Fang Yi's speculation, it may be more appropriate to put it in the Spring Festival next year.

Most of the movies have been "postponed" for a long time, but it is not without "upgrade" releases. For example, the Guoshi movie "Golden Armor" was originally released on December 06, 12. After spending a lot of money on pre-marketing, it attracted a lot of attention. A lot of competing films will be released in early December, just to avoid this behemoth. These films include "The Good Man in Three Gorges", "The Gate", "Yun Shui Ballad", "Scarred City", "Father and Son"...

Apparently, these movies are all bad guys at the box office.

"Golden Armor" doesn't talk about martial arts, and after seeing through the truth, it immediately strikes hard, announcing that the release date will be advanced to December 12, and the release date will be postponed to at least February of the next year, which is bound to achieve "14 million yuan" box office manifesto.This is a very wonderful operation, and it can be said that it has added a lot of box office to the movie out of thin air.

"Zodiac" is also facing a similar situation. The competitiveness of the 12 Lunar New Year film is extremely weak. If it is released here, the winner will take all. In the competition of "Journey to the West: Conquering the Demons", Zhou Xingxing has not made a movie for many years, and his appeal is actually greater than that of his eldest brother Cheng at this time.

If "Journey to the West Conquering the Demons" is avoided and "Zodiac" is released next year's summer, it may fight with Fang Yi's current film, and the box office will be diverted, and both sides will suffer.

Will Fang Yi pay back?

Fang Yi has been the "Mr. Box Office" in the mainland film market for two consecutive years, and always won the annual box office king. If "Zodiac" is mentioned in 12, "We Come from the Future" will be released in 13. He is very likely to have an unprecedented four consecutive box office, which will greatly improve his personal status in film history.

From 2000 to 2004, there were four films directed by Feng Dapao, all of which entered the top three of the annual box office list. Among them, "Mobile Phone" won the annual box office list, "Sigh" and "Big Wrist" won the second place in the annual box office list, and "Unparalleled World" won the second place. "Thief" ranked No.3 in the annual box office list.

With one championship, two runners-up and one third place, Feng Dapao was overjoyed: "If I don't make movies, what will Chinese audiences watch?"

How crazy are those four consecutive championships?
Fang Yi began to think about the possibility of raising the file, and the result of his thinking was that he should not give up the opportunity. The release within 12 years would have obvious benefits for him personally, for the box office of the movie, and even for the market of domestic movies.

The parties agreed, and soon under the leadership of China Film Group, several major film investors and the production company held a video conference.Of course everyone was willing to make it happen, and the elder brother Cheng didn't add to Fang Yi's troubles in this matter, so everyone agreed with it.

The producer is Yang Shoucheng, he saw clearly:

"I know that your mainland films are usually done early, and you have enough time to preheat and promote them. This is not the case with Hong Kong films. Sometimes we are still editing the film a week before the release, and even after the release, because we have to take care of the mainland. The review system is different from that in Hong Kong...so for the movie "Zodiac", the only trouble is, can the post-production be finished 12 years ago?"

"We are currently facing technical difficulties, not administrative difficulties."

The special effects are fully responsible for the special effects of base, and William, the representative of base, said: "There is no problem technically."

Fang Yi asked curiously, "How did you get it done in advance?"

"Working overtime and recruiting people. We strictly follow local laws and regulations, and all holidays and overtime outside legal hours are compensated."

Fang Yi vaguely remembered that base has now recruited a lot of industry leaders from Silicon Valley and Asia. These people may not be able to accept overtime work, even if they have enough overtime pay.

It has to do with their culture.This is called work-life balance.These people currently have two brushes, and they have the confidence not to go to the countryside and do as the Romans do.

Transnational technology is just for poverty alleviation, what's the deal?

At the beginning, base relied on cheap low-level special effects migrant workers to accept large outsourcing orders from Industrial Light and Magic, but now the composition of the staff has changed a lot.

Fang Yi asked: "Is that all right?"

William said: "If you are willing to inspire people, of course it will be better... You are not only a boss, but also a respected creator."

"Base special effects company contributes to Chinese special effects."

"Difficult and solid, honest and committed, practical and effective."

"Retain first-class talents with first-class treatment."

Located in the base special effects company in Tongzhou Film and Television Industrial Park, such slogans are everywhere.William Fang Yi, a Chinese American who has not yet obtained a mainland ID card, said proudly:

"Adhering to cultural self-confidence is the basic task of our special effects team."

Fang Yi squeezed the space between his brows, wondering where this buddy learned it. It seems that he has awakened his blood memory, and he is actually more smelly than the white-skinned and yellow-hearted Lao Ke.

Lao Ke has been in the mainland special effects circle for several years. The biggest difference between him and ordinary foreigners is that he is particularly keen on dealing with the government. He has participated in various seminars several times, much more frequently than Fang Yi, and can often be seen on industry news. This "foreign expert who loves Chinese culture" haunts.

In any public occasion, you will never see him complaining about the mainland, he only has endless praise.He really understands it all too well.

Fang Yi himself doesn't like this set, but it is still within the acceptance range of the big director. Maybe these slogans are not for him to read, but for other leaders who are inspecting - base is a star enterprise in the Film and Television Industrial Park, Japan There are Chinese, Koreans, and Americans. There are quite a few visitors every quarter. The employees have long been used to it, and it does not affect their work.

Right now, Guide Down has become one of the visitors, but he is not an ordinary visitor after all.As an employee recognized him, he exaggerated but softly let out an exclamation, spreading the word to ten, ten to hundreds, and the entire base fell into a silent boiling.

That year was actually the sudden emergence of "Tai囧", which took on the rescue role.But before it hits theaters, no one thinks that a comedy makes a billion dollars.In fact, looking at it now, "Tai囧" is not a particularly good film. It can only be said that other domestic films in that schedule were too abstract and did not stimulate the audience's real consumption power.
