What should I do if my girlfriend is famous and doesn't dump me?

Chapter 268 Is This Interesting?
How much will "Night at the Museum" make at the box office?
The original version obviously has no reference value.

The North American box office has long surpassed the original box office by a lot.

After all, the market size at the time of release was completely different.

The box office of the original version was only tens of millions of dollars, but "Ice World 2", which had the highest box office in the world that year, was only more than [-] million.

And this year?

There are more than one films with a global box office of more than one billion US dollars.

Factors such as the price of tickets have not been considered yet.

However, the film has a sequel, so it shows that the film has made a profit or a loss.

"Night at the Museum" won the box office championship in North America next week, so it naturally stimulated the curiosity of domestic movie fans about this film.

Of course, people in the circle are also very curious.

None of them want to enter the international market.

It's just that the halberd fell to the sand again and again, a little dejected and disheartened.

However, "Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon" and "Night at the Museum" sold well at the box office abroad, but they also aroused their silent hearts.

They can do it, who is worse than the other, why can't I do it?
Why did they do it?

Naturally, I wanted to figure it out.

At the premiere, not only many media reporters but also film critics came.

A lot of stars, producers, directors, and producers came.

This film has a lot of special effects, but the selling point is probably the resurrection of people and things in the museum.

This film is undoubtedly a film suitable for all ages.

In fact, it would be very good if it was released in the Spring Festival.

Of course, the summer file release is also good.

After all, summer students are on vacation.

In the film, the audience can see countless fantastic landscapes, can touch "history" at close range, and can span all continents and human civilizations for thousands of years (or even hundreds of millions of years) within a square inch. In the film, you can see how a frustrated father regains his dignity in front of his son, how he walks out of the shadow of divorce and regains love.

The film is different from the original version, adding a lot of Huaguo elements.

It even mocked certain powers for looting countless cultural relics from China.

The film still has a lot to watch.

The whimsy of a fantasy film, the everyday landscape of a family film, the confrontation of good and evil in an action film, and all of these are integrated in the framework of a comedy film.

Nowadays, a single type of movie is no longer satisfactory. There must be a mixture of types in order for the audience to experience an unexpected surprise and a variety of pleasure.

In this regard, "Night at the Museum" is relatively successful.

And many of Zhang Yu's movies are actually like this.

For example, isn't "Tang Bohu Spotting Autumn Fragrance" a pure comedy?

Inside is the martial arts design and was even shortlisted for the Golden Dragon Award.

Even if it didn't win an award in the end, it also shows the success of this film in this regard.

The resurrection of the museum's exhibits at night is undoubtedly an amazing idea.

The audience seems to have traveled through a time tunnel and entered a wonderful world that combines history, legends, fairy tales and nature.

At this time, the museum has become a microscopic world, a condensed history of human civilization.

The reputation of the film is very good.

The only thing that makes domestic movie fans complain is undoubtedly that the background is placed abroad, not at home.

However, the score on the movie website broke nine points.

What are those little complaints?
What's more, the film revealed the crimes that Lie had committed on the land of China.

This is undoubtedly very popular with domestic movie fans.

"Night at the Museum" premiered, and Feng Yongqing's "Gong Banquet" also had its premiere that night.

"The word-of-mouth of "The Palace Banquet" seems to be very good, with a score of [-] on MovieNet!"

On the way back to the crew, Xie Qian said to Zhang Yu with a smile.

"And then?" Zhang Yu said with a faint smile.

"Don't you pay attention?" Xie Qian asked suspiciously.

Brother, you made an appointment with someone for the Golden Dragon Award, and then you postponed the release of "Night at the Museum" to snipe at the box office.

Why don't you pay attention?

Zhang Yu responded to the media saying that it was a coincidence, it just hit the schedule.

But Xie Qian knew very well that the rumor that Zhang Yu's release in China was delayed by a week was not groundless, but true.

"Isn't the score not as good as "Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon"?" Zhang Yu said, "As for the box office. Hehe."

After "Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon" was released, the rating on MovieNet increased to [-].

As for whether the rating of Feng Yongqing's "Gong Banquet" will increase, Zhang Yu doesn't know.

However, in terms of box office, if he wants to compare with "Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon", that is wishful thinking.

In terms of awards, although Zhang Yu has never watched "The Palace Banquet", he still has great confidence in "Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon".

"You guys are not comparing box office." Xie Qian said.

Zhao Chen next to him nodded.

He didn't speak.

That was undoubtedly because his relationship with Zhang Yu was different from that of Xie Qian.

"Is that interesting?" Zhang Yu said, "If the shortlist for the Golden Dragon Award has not been announced yet, but after the release, the winner has already been determined, wouldn't it be too interesting?"

"What you said makes sense!" Xie Qian said speechlessly.

However, he also saw Zhang Yu's confidence.

Is it interesting to have a strong opponent?
Is this the idea of ​​the strong?
Xie Qian couldn't understand.

And what about the Internet?
At this point it has been debated.

Which movie is better, "Palace Banquet" or "Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon"?
It is quite controversial.

However, it doesn't really matter who is better.

And that's not necessarily the reason for the controversy.

Therefore, the topic of "Palace Banquet" skyrocketed, and even overwhelmed "Night at the Museum".

This may be the crux of the controversy.

This left many people dumbfounded.

However, anyone who knows the business knows it.

It is estimated that the one who provoked this debate is Jiguang Film and Television.

They are using this to create topics and promote the movie!
Some people support "Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon", while others support "Palace Banquet".

This debate is not just for movie fans, even film critics are arguing.

Of course, it is not known whether it is a real controversy or the role of propaganda.

Which company does not have a few "friends" film critics?
Still, it's topical enough to be true.

It's just that as soon as the first day's box office came out, many people's expressions became weird.

"Wonderful Night at the Museum" won nearly [-] million single-day box office, and topped the single-day box office list without any suspense.

"Palace Banquet" followed closely, and the box office was also good, more than [-] million.

Barely more than half of the former.

And "Palace Banquet" is even more difficult to compare with "Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon" at the box office.

However, no matter what, the word-of-mouth of this film is still very good.

Feng Yongqing undoubtedly proved his ability.

His reputation as a great director is not in vain.

The box office of "Palace Banquet" exceeded [-] million on the first day, and its reputation was extremely good. Naturally, no matter how bad the box office was, it couldn't be much worse.

Making money is certain, but the question of how much you earn needs time to prove.

As for the awards?

This undoubtedly left suspense.

Although word-of-mouth does not seem to be as good as "Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon", the awards are for reference only.

I don't know how many people are looking forward to next year's Golden Dragon Awards.

Zhang Yu didn't pay much attention.

He never denied Feng Yongqing's talent.

The film's critical acclaim is no doubt expected.

However, he didn't pay attention, but someone always mentioned it in front of him.

"I made an appointment with him for the Golden Dragon Award. Wasn't he the one who provoked it?" Zhang Yu said, "It's impossible to say that he didn't have any idea before provoking it. The film's reputation is good, but it's only expected .”

Although the film "Gong Banquet" was approved by Feng Yongqing when he went to Jiguang Film and Television, Feng Yongqing must have had an idea long ago.

Perhaps, he also intends to use this film to intensify the conflict with Orange Media, and then take the opportunity to leave.

Of course, it is also possible to just test Orange Media.

"Although the film "Palace Banquet" failed in Cannes, it cannot be denied that it is a good film." Zhang Yu said, "However, I still say that, so it is interesting! If the film is released, the winner will be decided , then it’s boring. The winner will be decided early, and the joy of defeating the opponent will undoubtedly be greatly reduced.”

The stronger the opponent, the more sense of accomplishment after defeating it?
Maybe so.

Zhang Yu had never watched Feng Yongqing's movie, but judging from the response from the media and fans, the movie was very good.

However, the box office of "Palace Banquet" is not very good.

Especially compared with the "Night at the Museum" of the same period, it is just a foil.

When Liu Bo joined the crew, the domestic box office of "Night at the Museum" was close to [-], while "Palace Banquet" was just over [-] million.

One billion box office is estimated to be a little overhang.

Even so, the film was profitable.

If it hadn't hit a fierce movie like "Night at the Museum", I'm afraid the box office might not fail to break one billion.

Pity.

Liu Bo didn't have many roles in "Transformers". He guest starred as the stinky District [-] agent.

Of course, Zhang Yu changed the special department of the seventh district into the famous "749" Bureau.

These changes naturally do not affect the film as a whole.

In fact, besides the background modification, many things have been modified in the film.

Like the way you speak.

It is natural to add some Huaguo elements to the film.

Of course, it's just full of strange cases, not even as good as the Huaguo elements in "Night at the Museum".

Liu Bo joined the crew late, but he didn't stay in the crew for long.

In addition to his not many roles, it is also because of the shooting plan.

Zhang Yu also made a guest appearance in the film.

However, he doesn't have many shots.

He cameo as a helicopter driver.

There is no doubt that he is using the public to seek personal gain and take the opportunity to get addicted to flying helicopters.

He is proficient in piloting, not to mention helicopters, he can drive even fighter jets and airplanes.

"You can even fly a helicopter?" Xie Qian said in shock.

Zhang Yu's driving skills are very good, and many people in this circle know it.

And Xie Qian also knows that this guy can drive a tank, the kind that can drift.

But who would have thought that he could drive the ones running on the ground, and he could also drive the ones flying in the sky.

"Are you surprised?" Zhang Yu pouted and said, "Don't talk about helicopters, I can fly fighter jets."

"I said you are fat, and you are still out of breath!" Xie Qian said, "However, you can drive anything that runs on the ground or flies in the sky. What about swimming in water? When are you going to learn it?"

"I can drive!" Zhang Yu said lightly.

"You know how to drive a boat?" Xie Qian said, "It can't be a wooden boat or something, right? That's not driving, but rowing. I'm talking about a steamship, even a speedboat."

"I'm talking about submarines." Zhang Yu said lightly, "Boats don't swim in the water, they float on the water."

"You're going to die if you don't brag!" Xie Qian was speechless immediately, and said, "Returning the submarine, why don't you talk about the aircraft carrier?"

"I can also fly an aircraft carrier!" Zhang Yu said with a smile.

Xie Qian rolled his eyes directly, obviously not believing it.

The people next to him also laughed dumbly, no doubt they all took what Zhang Yu said just now as a joke.

Surprised to fly a helicopter?

Surprised indeed.

However, it is not unimaginable.

In the entertainment industry, some people even got a helicopter driver's license.

Whether it is a speedboat or a steamer, it seems understandable to drive, at least within the understandable range.

After all, helicopters are actually very popular.

Can submarines?
That's an exaggeration.

Among other things, most people probably don't even have the chance to touch it.

I understand in theory, so is it called meeting?
In practice, you have no chance!

"Have you seen it?" Ning Yuan said with a smile, "I'm talking about seeing it with my own eyes."

Ning Yuan came to visit the set this time, in fact, to discuss his new film with Zhang Yu, but he didn't want to be pulled by Zhang Yu as a guest.

And he has a hobby in this area, so he didn't refuse.

Have you seen it?
The video images don't count, Zhang Yu really hasn't seen the real thing.

But he really knows how to drive!
However, he did not explain.

This can't be explained either.

Since they misunderstood, so be it.

Just brag and brag!

Zhang Yu also knew very well that he had no chance to prove it.

Not to mention the aircraft carrier, he didn't even have a chance to actually operate the submarine.

What a pity!

Many of these skills are useless.

Ning Yuan played a cameo from Bureau 749, and he had many rival scenes with the Minister of Defense played by Chen Baoming.

"When will your movie start?"

Zhang Yu didn't want to continue this topic and asked.

"I guess I'll go after the National Day." Ning Yuan shook his head and said, "Besides, the actors in my film are still in your crew."

Ning Yuan's new film "Shaolin Soccer".

Zhao Chen plays the male protagonist Fifth Senior Brother, and Liu Bo plays the coach Mingfeng.

And Chen Baoming plays Qiang Xiong.

As for the three of them, there are only two scenes of Liu Bo now.

Among them, Zhao Chen's scenes haven't been filmed much yet.

"Actually, I still think you are the best candidate for the male lead." Ning Yuan said, "The style of "Shaolin Soccer" is actually similar to your "Tang Bohu Spots Autumn Fragrance". Zhao Chen may not be able to control this style of performance."

"Do you think I have time?" Zhang Yu said, "Zhao Chen can even play Edison in "The Iron Fist of Shame", why can't he play the fifth brother in "Shaolin Soccer"?"

Ning Yuan was speechless.

Can you act?
maybe!
Zhao Chen's acting skills are actually pretty good.

After he played "The Iron Fist of Shame", his screen image was broken, his acting style was broadened, and his performance style was no longer the same.

However, he still felt that Zhang Yu was the best candidate for Fifth Senior Brother.

It's just that this guy doesn't have much interest in being an actor these days.

I was blinded by his good acting skills.

If he follows the route of an actor, he probably won't be able to run away as a film king.

However, if he takes the actor route, maybe there will be one less amazing director for Chinese-language movies.
