Who are you calling powerful?.

Chapter 660 Rouba: Does Mr. Fan have any opinion about me?

In March, "Operation Red Sea" broke the 3 billion mark.

At present, according to the estimates of various institutions, the final box office of this movie is approximately 35 to 38 billion.

In other words, Blue Whale has added another strong ally to its dominance over the mainland's total box office list, and there is a certain possibility that it will surpass "Detective Chinatown 2" which ranks second and "Dying to Survive" which ranks third.

There is a lot of noise from the outside world, and the main argument is that Boss Wei is unlucky and is often overtaken by others before he even has time to sit down.

At the beginning, "Lost in Thailand" produced by Blue Whale was overtaken by "Journey to the West: Conquering the Demons".

"Detective Chinatown", which he starred in and topped the film history, was surpassed by "The Mermaid" the following year. A few months after "Detective Chinatown 2", "Wolf Warrior 2" emerged.

Currently, "Detective Chinatown 2" and "Dying to Survive" are ranked in the top three, ranking second and third respectively. It is estimated that they will be overtaken and squeezed out of the top three.

Boss Wei may be very powerful, but his durability is a problem!
Regarding the outside world's disturbances, Wei Yang was mainly dissatisfied with the slanderous accusations against his endurance. As for being overtaken by "Operation Red Sea", he actually didn't care.

They are all self-produced movies, so they are better than the others.

Anyway, there is still "Wolf Warrior 2" waiting there, which cannot pose a threat in the short term. For Wei Yang, if he didn't get first place, there is actually not much difference between second place and tenth place.

The performance of "Operation Red Sea" can be said to be a gap in this year's Spring Festival.

Due to word of mouth, the box office of "Journey to the West: The Demons Strike Back" and "Monster Hunt 2" were sluggish in the later stages. Although they have not been taken off the screen yet, it is basically determined that the final box office will fluctuate between 18 billion and 20 billion.

"Monster Hunt" might be able to break 20 billion if it's lucky, but "Journey to the West: The Demons Strike Back" probably won't be able to do that.

Despite the box office, both movies made money, but given the current reputation, the two IPs are considered ruined.

The Douban score of "Journey to the West: The Demons Strike Back" is 5.9, and considering it's about Journey to the West, there may be a chance for it to be saved in the future.

"Monster Hunt 2" has a Douban score of 4.8, sending this IP, which originally had controversial quality but generally positive reviews, directly into hell.

Not only did the movie fail, but Liang Chaowei also fell from grace.

The Grandmaster from a few years ago not only saved Zhang Ziyi from the Triple Door dilemma, but also greatly increased the reputation of actor Leung.

He once became the representative of Chinese-speaking male actors, and in the eyes of many people, he left many Hong Kong big names such as King Andy Lau far behind. Wei Yang, a new generation actor who only knew how to make commercial films, was not even worthy of carrying his shoes.

These are the original words of Liang Chaowei's fans. In the minds of these literary and artistic fans, no matter how high Wei Yang's box office is, he is not on the same level as Liang.

One is a star, the other is an artist!
This impression was not reversed until Wei Yang made "Wushuang" and "Dying to Survive" and became a powerful actor.

Wei Yang himself doesn't care about these so-called distinctions and comparisons. There are so many people who don't like him, and they can always find various angles to belittle him. If he were to compete with them one by one, he would either be angry to death or exhausted to death.

But just because he doesn't care, or doesn't have the time to care, doesn't mean his fans don't care about him.

Fans follow the main character, Wei Yang’s fans are also very cautious!
Liang Chaowei had failed before with "The Ferryman", but it was not obvious, and that movie also flopped.

This time "Monster Hunt 2" is different, it is both popular and terrible. Liang's performance cannot be said to be bad, but it is out of place and seems to be far below standard.

After starring in two bad movies in a row, not only were passers-by disgusted, but even some movie fans had complaints.

At this time, some vengeful fans of Wei Yang began to take action. However, the fans did not directly attack this prestigious and powerful movie star.

It’s not that they are afraid of Liang Chaowei’s fans, but they know that this kind of actor may fail now, but he will make a comeback in the next movie.

Actors still speak through their works. If their works are bad or they act badly, they will be ridiculed. But if they turn around and make a good work, they will be praised to the sky.

Therefore, when facing this situation, we should pay attention to our expressions to avoid getting into trouble.

Moreover, for this talented actor with few fans, Wei Yang's fans rushed in, appearing to be bullying in numbers. But pretending to be a passerby and fanning the flames is another matter, and it may even be more lethal than revealing your identity and starting a fight directly.

The wall fell and everyone pushed it!

In fact, it was not just Wei Yang's fans who took action. Fans of other big names who had been stepped on before also followed suit and added insult to injury.

In addition, another abandoned IP is Zheng Baorui's "Journey to the West" series. The box office of "Journey to the West: The Women Kingdom" is expected to be difficult to reach 8 million.

It seems that the box office is not bad, but don’t forget that this is a big production and the investment cost is there.

The public statement is that the investment is 5.5 million yuan. This figure is definitely inflated, but it is generally speculated that it will not be less than 3 million yuan.

After all, the pay of many stars such as Aaron Kwok, Huang Xiaoming, and Dilraba Dilmurat are just a small amount, and they also spend a lot on real-life special effects, as well as unlimited publicity and promotion.

With such an investment, the box office must be at least 10 billion to make a profit. With the current data, even if there are other income, it is estimated to be a loss.

This project was entirely organized by director Zheng Baorui, and the leading investor behind it was Star Overseas Films, which has a Hong Kong background and limited strength of its own, so there are a lot of co-producers for the "Journey to the West" IP films.

With this model, if you make money, everyone will be happy and it will be easier to invest in the next part. But if you lose money, then you are all done.

It’s a pity for Dilraba Dilmurat, whose dream of entering the film market failed to materialize.

In fact, judging from the box office, "Journey to the West: The Women Kingdom" is not bad, but the word of mouth is too bad. Influenced by the movie, she was also criticized for her poor acting skills and inability to support the box office, etc.

Rouba went to Boss Wei privately and cried, asking for comfort. Wei Yang coaxed him for a long time before he calmed him down.

In fact, Rouba's attempt to get into the film market is more or less due to his fault.

Guli Nazha was arranged with film resources very early on, and she also took part in "Detective Chinatown 2". If nothing unexpected happens, she will also appear in "Detective Chinatown 3", plus there is also "Sewing Machine Band" with Li Jiahang.

Di Lieba can accept Fan Xiaopang’s huge success in the film market, and can also tolerate the 85 flowers’ success in the film industry.

The only thing was that her good sister, Nazha, was such a huge stimulation to her that she couldn't help wanting to make progress together with her best friend.

Fortunately, after this incident, Rouba suffered a loss and calmed down a lot. He realized that impatient people cannot get what they want. He no longer blindly pursued breaking into the film market and became much more calm and steady.

This turned out to be a good thing.

In fact, Rouba now has a good hand. He has popularity and influence, and he is doing well in both variety shows and the small screen.

As long as she works steadily and steadily, even if Nazha achieves some success in the film industry, it will be difficult for him to catch up with her unless she also wins the three major awards for Best Actress.

But is this possible?
I'm not trying to expose my best friend's shortcomings. Among Wei Yang's group of women, Naza may not be at the bottom in terms of fame and career, but when it comes to acting skills, she is the last.

If Nazha can win three Best Actress awards, she, Dilraba Dilmurat, can look forward to the European top three.

Although this movie brought some negative impact to Rouba, there were also some exposure and benefits.

Although the plot of the movie "Journey to the West: The Women Kingdom" is lame, the makeup and styling are good, and Rouba's appearance has also won her a lot of fans. In addition to the popular "Three Lives Three Worlds: The Pillow Book" at the beginning of the year, although Rouba did not dominate the crowd as expected, she still gained momentum and became one of the most popular stars in the first two months of 2018.

This also allowed Rouba to take the lead in this year's Golden Eagle Goddess selection and accumulate a considerable advantage.

Tang Yan has basically decided to withdraw from this year's selection. Di Lieba has a clear advantage, so she doesn't have much chance of winning.

Rather than fighting a fierce battle and eventually being defeated by a gangster and being stepped on to get to the top, it is better to withdraw early and save some dignity for yourself.

After all, I didn't participate, so you can't say I lost!
Tang Yan withdrew, and the other 85 flowers have all been Golden Eagle Goddesses, so their hopes of being elected a second time are slim, so this year's goddess selection has unprecedentedly become a battleground for the 90 flowers.

At present, there has been no formal voting, but the most popular candidates are Dilirouba and Shuangzi, followed by Nazar.

The Little Yellow Duck, who won three major award-winning actress awards, Li Xin, who gained a certain amount of popularity after starring in "Zhu Xian", and Xu Lu and Tan Songyun, whose works have performed well in the past two years, are also among them, but they are more of runners-up.

In addition to these 90s flowers, there are also two 85s flowers participating in this competition, Yang Tianbao and Song Qian who returned from South Korea.

Yang Tianbao is considered an old veteran. He has participated in the selection in previous sessions, but he was mostly a supporting role.

Song Qian is considered a new face. She has acted in many dramas in the past two years. Although none of them were hits, she has accumulated a certain popularity and is very close to the Hunan TV Station.

These two people are relatively threatening, but only relatively.

As I said, once Tang Yan retires, the Golden Eagle Goddess title will be dominated by the 90s girls.

The general view is that Dilraba Dilmurat is leading in all aspects, but Shuangzi and Nazha are not without hope of overtaking.

Especially Sister Shuangzi. Even though her works in recent years are not as good as Dilraba Dilmurat’s, her popularity has always been good and her fan cohesion is also very impressive.

What’s more important is that she is from the Hunan TV station, and Tianyu has always wanted to promote her to a higher position.

As early as 2010, Sister Shuangzi, who had just made her debut, began to compete for the Golden Eagle Goddess, but at that time her foundation was still shallow, so she was just there to show her face.

According to the normal order, Sister Shuangzi would have shown her face for one or two years, accumulated a resume, and then one day she would come across a good work, and her popularity would increase, and she would naturally be promoted.

But the idea is good, but the actual operation is very different.

In 2012, it was the popular Liu Shishi, in 2014 it was the all-time hot Zhao Liying, and in 2016 it was Da Mimi, whose qualifications and popularity were impeccable.

For three terms and six years, Sister Shuangzi was suppressed to the point where she had no temper at all.

Obviously, this award was hosted by the Hunan TV Station, and Tianyu did not gain any advantage, but became the back garden of the Blue Whale Department.

This time, Di Lieba wants to get a four-game killing streak, which is really a bit annoying, so Sister Shuangzi’s support this year will not be small.

If Rouba wants to win the Golden Eagle Goddess and further consolidate his position as the number one flower born in the 90s and challenge the flowers born in the 85s, he has to get past Sister Shuangzi who is playing at home.

Although the current advantage is not small, it is still not enough to prevent the Hunan TV station from taking the risk of engaging in shady dealings.

Moreover, blue whales are not vegetarians.

If the Hunan TV station dares to go too far, Blue Whale will dare to overturn the table and bring disgrace to the Golden Eagle Awards.

With Boss Wei's strength, he can make trouble even if he is not in the right, let alone if he is in the right.

Believe it or not, if Wei Yang publicly calls for a boycott of the Golden Eagle Awards, a small number of people in the circle will agree with him, while most of the others will hesitate and wait and see, and the credibility of the Golden Eagle Awards will be directly halved.

Of course, doing so would completely break off relations, which is an extreme approach and Wei Yang would not easily do so.

Moreover, the atomic bomb is often the most threatening when it is not launched. It will cause a fallout and both sides will suffer losses. The key is to use both soft and hard methods to achieve the goal.

The fact that the new generation of actors are making frequent efforts does not mean that the older generation of actresses are no longer capable.

Faced with the aggressive 90s flowers, the 85s flowers either retired or had not yet released new works, but the 80s flowers stood up.

In early March, the afterglow of the Spring Festival had not yet completely dissipated, and Fan Xiaopang’s new work "All Is Well" was launched on PPTV and Shanghai Satellite TV.

At the end of 2016, Rouba's "Love O90O" was a huge hit, heralding the arrival of the era of s flowers. Then Fan Xiaopang poured cold water on it with "My First Half of Life".

Now, it feels like history is repeating itself.

Even Di Lieba couldn't help but call Wei Yang and asked him in a roundabout way whether Fan Xiaopang had any opinion of her?
However, "My First Half of Life" back then was not as popular as "Love O90O". It was more of a way to make the supporters of the s flowers calm down. The predecessors are still there.

But now "All Is Well" is more popular than "Three Lives Three Worlds: The Pillow Book".

Fan Xiaopang’s appeal is not to be underestimated. In addition, he has produced many hits in recent years and has a high level of trust in the audience.

"All Is Well" became an instant hit upon its first broadcast, easily topping the platform in terms of playback volume and online popularity, and its ratings quickly broke 1.

Compared with the data, what is even more impressive about this drama is that the related topics have gone viral on a large scale across the entire Internet.

"All Is Well" was broadcast for one week and was on Weibo 72 times. It ranked first in related browsing and reading, and the number of online searches was also high, dominating the Douyin film and television traffic.

The last TV series that was so widely discussed was In the Name of People.

Countless netizens frequently complained about the plot and characters of "All Is Well", generating many hot memes.

Especially the topic center, known as [the most troublesome father/grandfather in history, Su Daqiang], has become a hit on the entire Internet and is known as the same as Xie Guangkun from Xiangyashan.

Ni Dahong, who played the role, experienced the feeling of being a top star even at his old age.

The heroine Su Mingyu, played by Fan Xiaopang, was somewhat overshadowed by her "father" and "second brother" played by Guo Jingfei.

But as the leading female character in the whole drama, her presence cannot be ignored.

All the troubles and problems accumulated during her nearly one year of semi-retirement due to pregnancy and childbirth have been swept away, and Queen Fan Bingbing has returned with a bang.

As I said, an actor’s performance depends on his works. If your works are popular and good enough, many problems will be solved.

Business, fashion, film and television, resources, popularity and other miscellaneous things have all returned, and even reached a higher level.

What’s even more surprising is that because Fan Xiaopang added a lot of Perfect Diary product placements in the post-production of “All Is Well” and she has been helping to promote the brand, many people know that she has started a beauty brand.

After the drama became a big hit, the brand Perfect Diary also became a little popular, with a surge in popularity and gratifying sales...
