Entertainment, I only like to make movies

Chapter 394 Lafite Worth Ten Thousand

at dinner.

Feng Trousers approached Fang Ziheng and asked about the situation of "I'm Not the God of Medicine".

"Director Fang, when will the filming of "I'm Not the God of Medicine" start, and I'll come to learn from it."

"Director Feng made fun of me. The movie will start in a few days. You are welcome to direct."

Fang Ziheng smiled slightly, held the wine and clinked glasses with Feng Trousers, thinking to himself what happened to Lao Feng today.

So humble and polite, but also learn from the experience?

He didn't know that Feng Pants had his own plans.

"Private Order" is only waiting to be released. After finishing this film, Feng Pants can be regarded as making up for the loss of "[-]" last year, and he has an explanation for the big and small brothers.

Next, of course, is to start a new project.

Fung Trousers also has ideas about realistic themes, and has long wanted to shoot a realistic movie.

If it was before, he would never be so humble, so what to learn from.

However, "[-]" dealt him a blow in the head, and it was a big blow. For more than a year, he had a long time to reflect on the reasons for his failure.

In the final analysis, it was still the script, which failed to control the rhythm of "[-]".

Now that the golden age is coming, the movie only shows the miserable and cruel side, without giving the audience the slightest hope. Of course, the audience will not buy it.

In addition, the big and small kings are very timid about his shooting new themes, and supporting Teng Huatao this time is one of the reasons.

Feng Pants was worried that the new project would be rejected by Xiao Wang, so he asked Fang Ziheng to learn from him.

If Fang Ziheng can give advice on the script, Xiao Wang would have no reason to reject him.

Of course.

After all, Feng Pants is the pillar of Huayi, with a high status, and he only pays attention to Teng Huatao's rise, and is not too worried.

after all.

What he signed with Huayi now is a director's contract, using a shell company to replace Huayi's 3 million soft sister coins, and signing five movies.

Three hundred million, real cash!

This kind of treatment is one of the best in the entire Chinese film industry, and few directors can match it.

Teng Huatao, there is still a long way to go!
The two chatted a few more words, looked at each other with a smile, and walked towards the center of the banquet hall with their wine glasses in their hands.

Center a dining table.

Wang Zhongjun and Wang Zhonglei gave Teng Huatao enough face, and took the lead in toasting: "Hua Tao, congratulations, judging from the situation of the premiere, "Waiting for the Wind" is bound to be a hit. You are an instant hit this time, and you are about to become a big director." Column!"

"At least [-] million at the box office, let's work harder on publicity and distribution, strive to get [-] million and [-] million, and fight a beautiful battle in the New Year's Eve!
Wang Zhonglei immediately opened his mouth, hugged Teng Huatao with an iron brotherhood, and said proudly: "Hua Tao, you just lead the team to promote, and leave the rest to me. When you come back, my elder brother and I will celebrate your achievements in person. When the time comes I opened the bottle of 1787 Lafite at home, which is a good wine that I have treasured for many years!"

"Okay, Lafite from 1787, then I have to taste it, thank you Zhonglei!

Teng Huatao's face was filled with joy, and he bowed his hands to Wang Zhonglei, as if seeing a big box office sale, and everyone was tasting the scene of Lafite in 1787 at the celebration banquet.

More than 100 million red wine, not to mention drinking, he has never even seen it.

It's still Zhonglei's brothers and loyalty!
At this time, Fang Ziheng and Feng Trousers just walked over and heard their laughter.

The corner of Fang Ziheng's mouth twitched, and he quickly glanced at Feng's pants.

If he remembers correctly, Wang Zhonglei had said the same thing to Feng pants at the premiere appreciation dinner of "[-]" last year.

At the celebration banquet, he will take out a bottle of 1787 Lafite that has been preserved for many years to celebrate Feng Pants.

What a chicken~!

You haven't finished that bottle of wine yet?

Thinking of this, Fang Ziheng sneakily looked at Feng's trousers.

If Feng Pants could guess what he was thinking, he would definitely sneer and roll his eyes.

drink a fart!
He, Feng Pants, had never even seen a bottle of 1787 Lafite. "[-]" hit the street, and Wang Zhonglei would not take out the wine even if he had a brain hole.

Feng Trousers remembered very clearly that although there was a celebration party at that time, he did not make a big deal of it. Wang Zhonglei opened a bottle of 1977 Henry Jay Li Qibao in front of him.

The price is 16000 U.S. dollars, a bottle of more than 10 soft sister coins, which is less than one-tenth of the price of 1787 Lafite.

Feng Trousers tasted half a glass at that time, and the rest was used by Wang Zhonglei to entertain other guests, not enough for a bottle of wine.

The taste is not very good, not as good as the 1996 Romanée-Conti that was opened at the "Tangshan Earthquake" celebration banquet last year.

I'm talking.

He is very old, it is better to drink less.

Feng Pants looked calm and calm on the surface, but his heart was sour, especially when he saw the high-spirited Teng Huatao, he was depressed and had nowhere to vent.

Oh shit!

Let's see how awesome you can be in "Waiting for the Wind".

If you accidentally hit the street, Teng Huatao will not have your share of that million-dollar bottle of red wine, it will belong to me, Feng Pants!
After the dinner party, zero gear followed.

Many movies released in the early morning of November 11, including "Waiting for the Wind" have jointly entered the theaters.

Fang Ziheng didn't pay attention to the zero-point block of "Waiting for the Wind", and fell asleep early when he got home.

the next morning.

Huayi stepped up the promotion of "Waiting for the Wind", and praised the film in various ways to escort the film's early release.

According to Huayi's internal statistics, although the finished film of "Waiting for the Wind" is not as funny as "33 Days of Broken Relationship", it is more profound.

What's more, the film uses the new generation of prostitute Ni Di as the female lead, and Jing Bolan, whom Hua Yi strongly supports.

The combination of handsome men and beautiful women, the trailer alone has attracted many curious viewers to stop.

Although Teng Huatao's reputation is not as good as in his previous life, he has a retired father who is at home and has very good connections.

In just one morning, many famous filmmakers in the circle showed up one after another, and they all stood up for "Waiting for the Wind".

Under the huge publicity and distribution efforts, the popularity of the movie has skyrocketed, attracting countless young men and women from all over the country to spend money to buy tickets.

But to no avail.

With the whole day of the release, negative comments quickly appeared on the Internet. Viewers who had watched the film came forward and accused the film of being too genteel and moaning without illness.

"The plot is sparse and boring!"

"Forcing private goods, moving yourself!"

"Besides being in a daze and crying for no reason, what else can the heroine do? She also has such a sweeping operation like epiphany. I'm afraid the director is not an idiot!"

"Damn it, after watching a movie, the whole story is pretentious and contrived. I really shouldn't trust Teng Huatao and the sixth-generation director!"

"Refund and refund, Teng Huatao, you idiot, if you don't have that ability, don't blindly participate in co-production movies, go back to film your TV series as soon as possible."

Bad reviews and abuse are flooding major movie forums.

On the Hengyu Maoyan APP, the original pre-sale of the movie was 2800 million, but it also dropped to 2100 million in one day.

In the evening, more negative comments appeared, and Huayi's publicity department and public relations department spent all their money, but they couldn't cover up the audience's dissatisfaction with the movie.

The big and small kings were dumbfounded, and Teng Huatao, who was imagining tasting a million red wines, was also dumbfounded.

In a hotel in the imperial capital.

Teng Huatao was sitting in front of the computer, frowning tightly, his face full of disbelief.

why?
There was thunderous applause at the premiere, and the guests and audience all agreed after seeing it.

Why are there so many bad reviews on the first day?

Someone must be doing something bad on purpose to discredit the movie.

It doesn't matter, when the box office comes out on the first day, these smears will be self-defeating.

Teng Huatao thought too much.

24 hours passed, and in the early hours of the morning, the box office of "Waiting for the Wind" was released on the first day.

2160 million!
"There are so few!"

Teng Huatao stared blankly at the data on his phone, with a look of constipation on his face, worse than eating a dead mouse.

Not only him, the director, but also Wang Zhongjun and Wang Zhonglei were completely confused.

2160 million on the first day, completely out of line with expectations.

According to their expectations, the box office on the first day will break through at least 4000 million, and they will become more and more courageous, kicking off the prelude to this year's Lunar New Year war in one fell swoop.

This is not over yet, "Waiting for the Wind" closed at 1500 million for the next day, and 1250 million for the third day.

The fourth day was even worse, falling directly to 1000 million, and without accident, it would fall below [-] million tomorrow.

In the four days since its release, the single-day box office of "Waiting for the Wind" has been getting worse day by day, with a total box office of 6000 million.

Judging from the current box office trend, let alone a base of [-] million, it is impossible to break [-] million.

The Huayi Brothers insisted on a few days of high-intensity publicity and distribution, and finally let it go, leaving the film to fend for itself.

As for the million dollar bottle of red wine, of course it was gone too.

However, Wang Zhongjun was very open-minded, and urged Wang Zhonglei to sign Teng Huatao as soon as possible, and giving charcoal in the snow is the easiest way to win people's hearts.

In his words, "Waiting for the Wind" did not become a big hit, but the production cost of the film was only 3000 million, so it is absolutely impossible to lose money.

And even if you lose money, where can you lose.

Since Huayi's stature is completely lost, let alone one play, it doesn't matter if there are three or five.

Wang Zhongjun has always been optimistic about Teng Huatao in his heart, and he wants to learn from Fang Ziheng to support new star directors and push Teng Huatao out.

12 month 4 number.

"I'm Not the God of Medicine" starts in Shanghai.

Feng Pants came here at the invitation, with a smile all over his face, very pleased.

As soon as he saw Fang Ziheng, he magically took out a gold-plated invitation card and said cheerfully, "Director Fang, "Private Order" will have its premiere on December 12th, and it will be officially released on the 18th. Director Fang, please show your support."

"It's easy to say, how can I miss Director Feng's movie, I will definitely be there."

Fang Ziheng smiled and opened his mouth, with a look of eagerness to see through.

At this moment, he also reacted.

Feng Pants is so happy today, it must have something to do with "Waiting for the Wind".

As the saying goes, one mountain cannot accommodate two tigers!
Teng Huatao is also a new director supported by Hua Yi, and Feng Pants has the spirit, and everyone understands it.

Fang Ziheng was too lazy to take care of Hua Yi's mess, and led a group of movie creators to follow the procedure in a serious manner.

Offering incense, praying, asking God, turning on the machine, don't be too familiar with a set of movements.

After the opening ceremony, Feng Pants stayed for lunch, during which he chatted a lot with Fang Ziheng.

Most of them discuss the limitations of realism-themed movies and the points that can resonate with the audience.

Through chatting, Fang Ziheng learned about Feng Pants' new ideas.

"Old Cannon"!
Just like in the previous life, Feng Pants also wants to direct and act this time, making a niche movie that draws on reality and transcends reality.

In the end, Feng Pants came in high spirits and returned satisfied.

On the occasion of parting.

He grabbed Fang Ziheng and whispered quietly, saying that he would invite him to drink a few days and drink a million-dollar red wine.

Fang Ziheng was speechless for a moment, and secretly scolded Lao Feng for being small-minded.

After the water passed through Sanqiutian, he was still talking about the bottle of 1787 Lafite that Wang Zhonglei treasured.

in the afternoon.

The hotel where the crew of "I'm Not the God of Medicine" stayed.

In a lounge, all film creators gathered to start the first script study.

After more than half a month, the leading actors have already gained new insights into the roles of the movie.

"Come on, start with Zhengzi, makeup artist, put on makeup for him first."

Fang Ziheng got straight to the point, said while waving to the head of the makeup team who was carrying the box.

The study begins with Xu Zheng.

Soon, Xu Zheng's makeup approached Cheng Yong in the movie.

The body is slightly fatter, with a greasy bald head.

He was full of beards, his eyes were dim, and he was listless, and he exuded a sense of frustration all over his body.

Fang Ziheng walked around him twice, touching his chin to express his satisfaction: "Not bad, not bad, sloppy, the image is very suitable."

"Come on, let's play for a while."

Hearing this, Xu Zheng changed his sitting posture, and imitated Uncle Ge to lie down leisurely, looking even more decadent.

Afterwards, he took out his smartphone from his pocket and clicked on the poker game he often played during this period of time, playing with each other.

Halfway through the game, he turned his head slightly to look forward, his pupils were empty, and he looked extremely bored.

Fang Ziheng stared at him carefully, and shook his head until he finished his performance: "No, it's a bit off."

"The psychology of playing games bored is not like this."

With that said, Fang Ziheng asked Xu Zhengqi to open, snatched the phone from him, and sat down on the sofa.

bang
Fang Ziheng's feet were resting on the coffee table, and his shoes were stuck to the glass coffee table, leaving a trace of dirt.

Holding the phone in his hand, he leaned against the sofa and started the next game.

Along with the game, Fang Ziheng's legs on the coffee table shook freely, his elbows supported the sofa seat, and his upper body leaned to one side.

Then, Fang Ziheng narrowed his eyes, looked at the phone screen and pursed his lips. The cards were so bad that he was already bored and didn't want to play.

"Yes three."

"To five."

"Yes J."

"I'm sorry!"

A girl's game sound came from the phone. Fang Ziheng was so bored that he almost didn't bother to look at the screen. Occasionally, it was his turn to play cards.

Finished the game and lost.

Fang Ziheng took a half breath, turned his neck, and threw the phone on the coffee table casually.

boom..
The phone fell onto the coffee table, then slid out, making a screeching sound on the floor.

Fang Ziheng didn't care whose cell phone it was, and continued to perform, only to see him leaning back slightly, looking around slowly with haggard eyes.

Ceiling, wall, coffee table, outside the window, no idea, no goal, more and more boring.

This scene instantly caught everyone's eyes.

God!

The director's performance perfectly portrayed Cheng Yong's state.

Xu Zheng didn't have time to think about the performance, so he quickly picked up the phone from the ground, looked at it, breathed out at the screen of the phone, and rubbed it twice with his hands.

Fortunately, it didn't break me.

Afterwards, he followed Fang Ziheng's performance method and added his own understanding to perform it again.

Needless to say, Xu Zheng's acting skills are really superb, and he has grasped the essence of this scene after just watching it once.

"It's not bad this time."

Fang Ziheng gave a thumbs up thumbs up and explained: "The theme at the beginning is mainly to point out Cheng Yong's character design.

He played card games in the store, purely to pass the time, and it didn't matter whether he won or lost.

Because of playing for a long time, he has a deeper understanding of the game, and he knows whether he can win after half of the game.

So he always has a limp, casual, boring attitude! "

"Director, I understand!" Xu Zhengruo said solemnly after thinking about it.

Speaking of which, he now likes the role of Cheng Yong more and more.

These days, he is fattening up at home every day, doing nothing for a whole day, living a life of wearing clothes and stretching out his hands to eat and open his mouth.

His wife, Xiao Taohong, knew that he was thinking about the role, so she let him, and even waived the public rations.

"OK, just understand!"

Fang Ziheng nodded and looked at Hu Ge: "Next, come Hu Ge."
