Entertainment, I only like to make movies

Chapter 380 Shout 666! !
Fang Ziheng had expected that Bona Pictures would have a hard time.

But he didn't expect that Bona would not be able to do it for another year or so, and he was about to launch "Operation Mekong" in a hurry.

Originally, in his plan, he planned to invest together with the Labaoli Group, and the project would be established in the second half of next year.

Filming started at the beginning of 2015, and it was released on National Day, fighting a beautiful tough battle.

Yu Dong is in a hurry!
Fang Ziheng sighed inwardly, and persuaded him: "Yu Dong, "Operation Mekong" is a real military blockbuster, so we can't start the project rashly, just wait."

"Fang Dong, I also know the importance of "Operation Mekong", but I can't wait for the old man!"

"You don't know, although the higher-ups agreed that Bona will be listed next year, but at the same time, they also made a request that they must control two or more movies with a box office of over [-] million before the listing, otherwise the listing quota will be taken away by other film and television companies!"

Yu Dong spoke in a muffled voice, Yapi with an ugly face.

A phoenix on the ground is not as good as a chicken. At this time, Bona has long since lost the prestige of three years ago. The so-called first private film and television company overseas has become the biggest joke in the circle.

If it weren't for the good reputation and quality of movies produced by Bona Films for so many years, the higher-ups would never let go of Bona's return to A shares in a short time.

In the last life, Bona’s return journey was difficult, and it was not until 2016 that it got out of the US stock market. After waiting for another six years, it was not listed again until 2022.

Ten years wasted!

Even though the owner of Bona Films controlled many well-received and well-received films, they were still severely scrutinized by relevant departments, and the road to listing was delayed again and again.

In this life, Hengyu Media is at the forefront, and the evaluation and expectations of the film and television industry are more satisfied than in the previous life.

In addition, the current industry environment is very good, far from the miasma of the last 16, 17, and 18 years.

Yu Dong listened to Fang Ziheng's words and asked Bona to return early. This move was 3 years earlier than in the previous life, and finally he didn't let his superiors target Bona.

Even so, the higher-ups have made demands on Bona!

If you want to go public, you need to return everything to zero first, and then control two movies with a box office of over 5 million.

The superior was very accurate in pinching his neck, and he caught Yu Dong's valve in an instant. In just one year, he went somewhere to conjure up two blockbuster movies.

Among Bona's current preparatory projects, only "Operation Mekong" can meet the requirements, not to mention [-] million box office, a billion is possible.

But it's so hard to die, before a certain time point, "Operation Mekong" can't be launched at all!
I want to shoot, but I can't!
Yu Dong turned over and complained, took Fang Ziheng's hand and shook it twice, and solemnly begged: "Fang Dong, help Lao Yu, Lao Yu must be grateful and bear it in mind!"

In his heart, he also made a decision!

If Fang Ziheng really doesn't want to, he will go to Baoli Group to do it together with this giant Buddha.

Bona came from Baoli, and those old friends would nostalgia, and would not watch Yu Dong die.

Hey, both of them thought of Baoli Group.

Bona Pictures was the godson of Poly Group in the entertainment field in the early years.

It is precisely because of Baoli's support in the early stage of development that Bona was able to obtain the distribution rights of Hong Kong films, and it took so many years.

"Yu Dong, you see how good this is, and the project will be established after the Chinese New Year."

Fang Ziheng swallowed his last mouthful of food, took a napkin from the table to wipe his mouth, and responded while wiping his mouth.

Rejection is no longer rejection!
Yu Dong has already confessed, if he refuses again, he will offend others.

"New Year's Eve?"

"Okay, then I'm waiting for a few months, thank you Fang Dong!"

When Yu Dong heard this, his expression brightened, and he agreed after a little thought.

After the Chinese New Year, there is still time for the project to be established, even if the pre-production takes time, it will be fine to start shooting in July and August.

As long as the project has been reported and reviewed, Bona will have an explanation to his superiors.

Yu Dong breathed a sigh of relief, and solemnly bowed his hands to Fang Ziheng.

He still has to find a second potential project to fully meet the requirements of his superiors.

"Look around first, if you can't find it, come back and ask Brother Fang for help."

Yu Dong murmured in his heart, regained the momentum of a big boss, got up and left with joy, and walked towards the crowd with figure eight steps.

As soon as he left, a bunch of people took advantage of the opportunity and surrounded him.

"Director Fang, congratulations, "The Founding of an Army" is so good!"

"Yes, in my opinion, this time can break the film history record again."

"Come, come, let's all offer a toast to Director Fang, and wish "The Founding of an Army" a big hit at the box office and break records."

"Big box office hit, breaking records!"

A group of people surrounded Fang Ziheng, smiling happily, some poured wine, some congratulated, and their attitudes were extremely respectful.

Fang Ziheng picked up the red wine, shook his glasses with everyone, drank most of it in one gulp, and said with a smile, "Everyone, don't praise it, because of the audience, "The Founding of an Army" is hard to break the record. I'm satisfied with 15 billion! "

This moment, he was very humble, completely different from the arrogance and self-confidence in front of the reporters.

In front of the reporters, all they want is to blow the bullet, and the more explosive the content of the interview, the greater the promotional effect on the movie.

In front of colleagues in the circle, it is completely unnecessary, they are all foxes on the mountain, and no one knows who else.

Not many of the touting people in front of me are sincerely congratulating. I guess they can't wait for "The Founding of the Army" to hit the street!
At eleven o'clock, the dinner party is over.

When we returned to Li Palace, it was almost midnight.

Fang Ziheng and Zeng Li looked at Xiao Yueyue first, and saw that their daughter had fallen asleep peacefully, then embraced and went to the bathroom to take a bath together.

"Sister Li, hold on!"

"Um"

after an hour.

Zeng Li is like a lotus emerging from water, delicate and beautiful like a flower back to the bedroom.

Fang Ziheng dried himself off, went to the kitchen to fill a bowl of soup in his bathrobe, and walked slowly into the study on the second floor.

Shiquan Dabu Soup, rich in aroma, is the best kidney tonifying soup. Zeng Li specially stewed it for him in the afternoon.

While drinking soup, Fang Ziheng turned on the movie to check the latest movie data.

last week!
The film market has not seen a boom, and no film has a weekly box office of over [-] million.

"Very Lucky", starring Zhang Yinghou and Wang Lihong, topped the weekly box office with 8541 million.

"National Witness" starring Sun Honglei and Guo Fuchen ranked second, with a seven-day box office of 7845 million.

Under the two domestic films, it was the turn of two Hollywood films.

No.4: "Speed ​​Snail", with a weekly box office of 5300 million.

No.5: "The Smurfs 2", with a weekly box office of 5000 million.

All other movies have not been hit, except for "Elysium", which was released on September 9, which hit a box office of 5 million, and none of them broke through 2000 million at the box office.

Same this week.

In two days, only "National Witness" and "Very Lucky" reported a box office of 4100 million and 3100 million, while "Speed ​​Snail" was worth over [-] million.

The release schedule of "The Founding of an Army" can be described as a unique advantage. Under the first-mover advantage, there were almost no opponents in the first two days.

The latest movie schedule came out, with 65% on the first day and 67% on the second day, accounting for the highest share of movies in the same period.

On the 28th, the release day of "Di Renjie: The Dragon King", the number of films scheduled will drop to 45%, and 20% will be given to the other party.

In other words, "The Founding of an Army" had to be an instant hit. It took two days to ignite the popularity of the movie, and then use word of mouth to drive the box office trend.

Only in this way can we continue to maintain our leading edge after the release of "Dragon King of Shendu" and compete for more film schedules in the later stage.

After watching for a while.

Fang Ziheng took out his mobile phone and dialed the number of Ning You, Director of Hengyu Propaganda Department.

Doodle
The phone was connected quickly, and Ning You's calm voice came through.

"Hey, Chairman!"

"Director Ning, what's the situation on the Internet now?"

"I didn't find anything abnormal. Huayi has kept the original promotional rhythm. I guess it wants to wait for the release of "Dragon King of Gods" before going all out!"

On the other end of the phone, Ning You was on duty at the group, guarding the office area of ​​the propaganda department.

In front of her, hundreds of staff members were sitting in front of the computers, leading their navy to station in various forums on the Internet, monitoring the film reviews and discussions of "The Founding of an Army".

Although "The Founding of an Army" is special, few people dare to act blindly and make trouble, but the heart of defense is indispensable.

As the producer of the film, whether it is Hengyu Media or China Film Group, they have to send people to monitor film critics and public opinion at all times.

Fang Ziheng was very cautious and told Ning You not to relax.

"Let everyone cheer up, Huayi is an established company, who knows how many third-rate media and Internet trolls they know!"

"Understood, please rest assured, Chairman, I will personally stand in front of the computer tonight!"

"Well, if you ask people to order supper for the employees, just say that I treat them, and it's hard work for them."

"Okay, thank you Chairman!"

Ning You smiled and thanked the overtime employees.

On the other end of the phone, I even faintly heard the cheers of the employees. This is the first time for the chairman to treat him to supper alone!

After hanging up the phone, Fang Ziheng clicked on the webpage again to check the latest movie reviews.

this time.

Soft articles from the media and professional film critics have already been uploaded, and Douban, Huaguo Film Network, and Mtime.com have gathered a large number of movie viewers.

In addition, the Hengyu Maoyan Movie APP, a new forum for discussion, has also welcomed many viewers who have watched the movie, as well as movie fans who are looking forward to the movie.

["The Founding of the Army", a movie that must not be missed! 】

"The movie is really exciting, and it has brought me a strong impact. I have been discussing with my friends when I walked out of the premiere. Without the Huaguo forged with the blood of these revolutionary ancestors, there would be no peaceful life for us now!"

[Big Gathering, "The Founding of an Army" really didn't disappoint me! 】

"From the beginning to the end, the movie-watching effect exploded, it was really shocking, the grand atmosphere, full of details, especially some small plot twists, Fang Ziheng handled it very well.

The actors performed very well, every look, expression, and movement contains their understanding of this movie and this period of history! "

["The Founding of the Army" made me cry! 】

"After the movie ended, the grandpas in the front row stood up and saluted. This scene made me, a 30-year-old man, have wet eyes and a sore nose. Many girls cried at the premiere."

[Salute to the great man, salute to the revolutionary ancestors! 】

""The Founding of an Army", from the scene to the photography, from the soundtrack to the performance, is all excellent, not a top-notch work.

Especially so many young actors, they have done the best they can, doing their best to show the demeanor of their predecessors and present those extraordinary years.

Perhaps, historical turning points such as the Changcheng Uprising, the Battle of Sanheba, and the reunion in Jinggangshan have become a few paragraphs and pictures in textbooks.

But when "The Founding of the Army" really presented these on the screen, it still shocked and moved the 3000 audience at the scene! "

[The best domestic film I have seen this year, bar none! 】

"It is often easier to gather high-quality creative resources for the main theme gift films, especially in today's cultural policy and market environment.

The same is true for "The Founding of an Army". The lineup of the film is unprecedentedly luxurious, and the clouds of stars are like the Spring Festival Gala.

The "Great Cause" trilogy has made great contributions to the commercialization, entertainment, and popularization of the main theme giant system, completely breaking away from the stylized style of Gao Dawei Guangzheng.

"The Founding of the Army", Fang Ziheng, the chief director, did his best, perfectly igniting the blood and momentum of the army building link.

The camera movement method of parallel editing and combination of point and surface, compactly and orderly shows the group portraits of heroes at the moment of great change.

The four major passages in the movie plot are magnificent, and the scenes of several individual characters are even more intriguing.

At this moment, I just want to say that Fang Ziheng is awesome, and "The Founding of an Army" is awesome! "

[There has never been a quiet time, it's just that someone is moving forward with a heavy load! 】

"The revolutionary ancestors remained unswerving until death, and rebuilt the universe with blood and life, and rebuilt China, in exchange for today's hard-won happy life!"

[Fang Ziheng, my idol forever! 】

"Able to write, direct, and act, the No. [-] great man he plays is so handsome, I love it to death!"

After reading more than a dozen movie reviews in one go, Fang Ziheng was in a good mood, and a satisfied smile unconsciously appeared on his face.

In the last comment, he must be a female movie fan, and there is a female fan atmosphere between the lines.

Good!

It shows that his appeal is still the same. Even female audiences who don't like to watch movies with the main theme fall in love with "The Founding of an Army".

One o'clock!
Drip
Drip
A series of text messages spread all over the country. After countless people waited, the zero-point box office of "The Founding of an Army" was finally released.

1500 million!
Strongly broke the 1260 million record of "The Great Wall", ranking first in Chinese film history.

Horror!
All the people waiting for the box office were stunned, especially those in the film industry, all of them opened their mouths and stared blankly at the dazzling data on their phones.

How can it be so high?

This is not "The Great Wall", not "Looking for the Dragon"!

It's just a theme movie, why is it?
Just because the chief director of the movie is Fang Ziheng?

impossible!
Many people subconsciously rubbed their eyes and looked at their phones again.

The data has not changed, nor has it decreased!

That's 1500 million, the box office collected in two tenths of "Founding an Army".

Nima!

Fang Ziheng is fortified!

Voices of envy and jealousy are staged all over the country.

Together with the zero-point box office, there are two zero-point games, the attendance rate of movie theaters across the country.

95.9%!

Another unattainable statistic!
The attendance rate of "The Founding of an Army" has achieved unprecedented achievements.

There has never been a main theme movie that can win such a high box office at zero gear and achieve a nearly perfect attendance rate.

When Fang Ziheng saw this data, it took him a while to figure out what was going on.

Thanks to yesterday evening, the promotion of news from [-] evening satellite TVs across the country pushed the zero-point box office and attendance to the peak.

"So strong!"

"too strong!"

"Fang Ziheng is simply not human!"

This time, everyone lost their envy and jealousy, only shocked, shouting 666!

At the same time, many people dialed the phone numbers of acquaintances at the first time, and put their ideas on the main theme.

"Hey, buddy, did you see the zero box office for "The Founding of an Army"?"

"We will have a gathering tomorrow. I think the main theme movie is coming. As long as the cost is controlled and the production is of a good standard, there must be something to do!"

"Hey, Mr. Chen, I interrupted your sleep, I suddenly have a new idea, okay, I will report to you in detail at the company tomorrow."

"Mr. Li, yes, the main theme, if we don't make movies, we will make TV dramas, and compete with others!"

With the zero-point box office release of "The Founding of an Army", a new round of movie trends has come along.

All kinds of ideas and ideas were brewed tonight, and they were hastily put on the desks of countless film and television company bosses.

The master is the teacher!
Fang Ziheng once said before that following the trend is not wrong, it is not plagiarism.

They are just learning!

　Recommend a great entertainment novel of the same kind, "Starting from Obtaining a Certificate with the Queen of Heaven", the results are terrific, envious yuppie!
