China Entertainment started from art school

Chapter 165 The Movie Released (2 in 1)

"The title of the novel is "Wake Up or Fall Asleep", and it tells the heartfelt voice of the heroine Zhao Zi. She is a person who is very obsessed with someone once she falls in love with him.

The person she fell in love with for the first time was named Mai, and Mai also liked her.The two fell in love quickly, but Mai was a strange person. He would often go outside alone, or leave for no reason, without telling others where he was going or how long he was going.

Fuck missing people without saying a word!

Sometimes away for a day or two, sometimes for a week or two.Completely disappeared the last time I left and hasn't been seen in years!

A few years later, Chaozi left that city to work and live in another big city. At this time, he met a person who looked very similar to Mai!

To her, this person looks exactly like Mai.

Yes, the plot behind it is the same as you guessed.This man also took a fancy to her!

Then after several tangles, the two are still together!

But the more bloody thing came again. Two years later, the first man Mai appeared again, and soon appeared in front of Chaozi...

That's about it, I forgot the following content!But Chaoko still likes Mai, and is vacillating between the two!

I watched it a year ago, anyway, it feels a little strange, and a little bit over the top!Hahaha! "

After reading this message, many people praised her one after another. She worked so hard to popularize science for everyone and typed so many words.He also responded to her.

"Ah, ah, what a bloody plot!"

"It's too bloody! So this is a literary film? Li Jingkun asked Liu Tianxian to cooperate in making a literary film?"

"What a strange story, are you sure this is Li Jingkun's taste? Jingkun, please blink if you are kidnapped (crying and laughing)!"

"It's normal. After many directors succeed in commercial films, they always want to make a few literary films to prove their strength. And this is not the first time he has made a literary film. The first is "Hummingbird", And it’s also announced that it’s set to be released in the summer vacation!”

There are many kinds of messages, and they can say anything.But there are indeed a lot of people who think it's bloody.

And some people have dug up more information, such as the investor is Zhongyi, such as the supporting role is an artist under Zhongyi, and so on.

Li Jingkun will do publicity here, and Zhongyi will naturally release rumors. They also want to advertise their artists. After all, this is to star in Director Li's new film. How many people have this opportunity.

However, the point of cooperating with Zhongyi has also been discussed by many people. Many people wonder why Li Jingkun did this. After all, their recent lawsuit with Zhou Xingxing is well known; Yi's reputation is not very good.

······
On the day Wen Muye signed the contract, the script discussion group between Li Jingkun and Liu Tianxian ended early.

That is to say, kick her away temporarily and go to accompany Wen Muye.

That night Li Jingkun called several high-level leaders to accompany him and had dinner with him.

Wen Muye didn't feel anything for a while, thinking it was the company culture, thinking that every newcomer had this process.

But the people in the company felt that he was unusual, because other people did not have such a high courtesy when they joined the company, including the director who signed the contract last time-there were not so many people to accompany him for dinner at that time.

Wen Muye is confirmed to direct "Get Out!"After "Mr. Tumor", the number of films approved and led by Longqi Film and Television has increased to two this year.

Preparatory work has also begun.

As for the production diary of the film, some content has also been recorded, but it has not been released yet. I plan to make a few more issues and then upload it one after another.

The distribution department has also begun to be established, and a large number of people have been recruited during this period.

"Our World" was launched at the end of May, and Li Jingkun followed it there for a few days.Then I didn't bother the director's work anymore, and returned to China soon.

"Hummingbird" has also started a large-scale publicity, but the premiere ceremony should not be held, and I plan to start an early road show with Zhou Dongyu directly at that time.

The roadshow is 3 days before the release, and the roadshow is planned for 12 days after the release.

As soon as the road show is over, it's almost time for "Day and Night" to start.

Then Xiao Yang found him at this time and said that he wanted to direct and act in a movie called "Old Boy Raptors Crossing the River".

Being a director has always been his pursuit, as is making a feature film that can be released in cinemas, and this film is also an extension of his own micro film "Old Boy".

The two had talked about this matter before, so of course Li Jingkun supported him to apply for project approval, and then asked for money for money and people for people.

Of course, in order to share the risk, several investors will also be brought in.

Therefore, Longqi Films has added another film to the project this year!
······
"A little bookish, with a bit of literary temperament, quiet and gentle."

On this day, Liu Tianxian came to Longqi Film and Television to arrange makeup photos.

It started with a change into a custom dress, and then the stylist started applying makeup.

After tinkering for more than half an hour, the stylist Bai Xi asked Li Jingkun to come over to have a look.

Liu Tianxian is just a tool person at this time, she sits quietly in front of the makeup mirror, waiting for other people's scrutiny and evaluation.

Not only the assistants came with her today, but Mother Liu also came with her.At this time she was also standing behind her.

"A little too pretty."

Bai Xi couldn't help laughing, thinking that Li Jingkun was joking or something, but seeing that he wasn't smiling, she said, "What do you think needs to be trimmed? Clothes, hairstyle, etc."

Li Jingkun said: "There is no need for clothes. Most of the clothes for this character are beige, white or gray, so there is nothing wrong with the clothes-you can change her hairstyle, put some bangs in front, and don't let too much of her forehead come out."

Bai Xi said, "Okay, this is easy, then please wait a little longer."

"It's troublesome."

Li Jingkun and Liu's mother retreated again and went to the next door to continue drinking tea.

The shape of each movie character is very important, what is shown and revealed is the character and identity of the character, so it is certain to be cumbersome and troublesome.

The same goes for his character, which has been finalized after many revisions and discussions.

He will play the two male protagonists in it, one is Mai and the other is Liangping.

These two characters have completely different personalities, so of course it has to be reflected in the styling and clothing.

The most obvious difference is that one of them has longer hair and one has shorter hair.At that time, I will also see whether it is better to wear a wig or hair extensions.

"Come, Auntie, have some tea."

"Thank you, you're welcome, we're here to work. You don't have to entertain me specially."

"It's my job to determine the heroine's look today. Compared with other people in the company, most of the time I'm still relatively free."

"Yes, the company is on track, and the boss must have some leisure time, so that he can have time to think about the future development path of the company."

"Auntie is right. It seems that you have a deep understanding of running a company."

"No, I also learned from others."

Li Jingkun chatted with Liu's mother while drinking tea.

He really didn't deliberately curry favor with her, it was just a normal communication with the elders.

However, if one stands on a high place for a long time, one can indeed learn and see many different things.Liu's mother's intelligence and insight were indeed beyond his expectations.

In fact, there is still something.

So the two had a good chat.

After a while, someone called him over again.So the two continued to return to the modeling room.

"How is it?" Bai Xi said.

Li Jingkun looked at the big and bright mirror directly opposite, in which Liu Tianxian was sitting on the back chair; also looking at him quietly.

Today she is wearing a beige round neck short-sleeved top, which is a simple T-shirt; the lower body is a pair of light blue jeans.

Li Jingkun first looked at her whole body, and then concentrated on her face.Of course, he couldn't avoid staring at her.

The long black hair was slightly over the shoulders, and the bangs that reached to the eyebrows covered more than half of the forehead.

With a pretty face and big eyes,
The appearance is indeed a little lower than before.

Well, a little bit.

"The makeup on the face should be plain and light, so it doesn't look too glamorous." Li Jingkun said.

"Is it simple and elegant?"

"Try it and see."

Bai Xi said, "But it can't be uglier."

Li Jingkun said: "I know, and I don't mean to make a fool of myself. It's just that I hope she doesn't feel like before."

"How did it feel before?"

Liu Tianxian finally asked.

Li Jingkun said: "Can you understand the feeling of 'heavenly fairy' before? It is necessary to show a different feeling, not the kind of otherworldly, or that kind of feeling that is too amazing.

Of course it can be beautiful, but how can the characters not be good-looking when making movies.But there must be a degree.Your 'celestial' feeling in the past was so impressive.So in this movie, I want to turn you into a girl who is prettier than the average girl, but doesn't steal the scene. "

Bai Xi said: "Scholarly, literary and artistic, a little more elegant."

"Yes, it's hard work for you to fix it again; and Tianxian——by the way, that, Xiaoling, go and get a glass of water for Tianxian and Baixi. Or do you want coffee?"

Liu Tianxian said: "Water is enough."

Bai Xi said, "I don't need it, my water is here."

Bai Xi is currently a stylist of Longqi Film and Television, and one of the top talents in the industry in the future.So she will participate in many projects of the company, so all the character modeling of "Day and Night" will be handed over to her-it's just a modern drama, which is a piece of cake for her.

So after another ten minutes, Li Jingkun finally pressed the confirm button on Liu Tianxian's appearance.

After resting for more than half an hour, I started to take makeup photos.

······
"Hummingbird" is scheduled to be released on July 7, and works at about the same time include "Blind Detective", "First Love Is Not Enough" and "Man of Tai Chi". "Little Times" was released on June 5, and has already won the box office champion for a week.

Before the movie was released, Li Jingkun and Zhou Dongyu had already run a road show for 3 days, doing the final publicity before the movie was released.

On July 7, "Blind Detective" won the box office of 4 million, beating "Little Times" and winning the single-day box office champion.

The next day, "Hummingbird" was released and took the box office of 2350 million, snatching the box office champion from "Blind Detective".

On Saturday and Sunday, "Hummingbird" was still the day's box office champion.

But the overall box office is definitely not comparable to "Detective Chinatown".

The three-day box office of "Hummingbird" only slightly surpassed the one-day box office of "Chinatown"!

Therefore, although many media have already published press releases to brag about it, many people say that he has "regressed greatly".

After all, although "Little Times" and "Blind Detective" did well at the box office, they are not considered blockbusters, and they are definitely not as strong as Zhou Xingxing before.

And "Hummingbird", which has no big blockbuster as a competitor, actually got such a little box office?
Li Jingkun's last work broke 10 billion box office!

It turned out that this was not the most hip-pushing, and when the box office on Monday and Tuesday came out one after another, it surprised many people!
Every day, the box office is only more than 1000 million, which is more than any of his previous works!
So at this time, all kinds of reports that he was "exhausted" and "Waterloo" began to swarm out!

"Li Jingkun's new film has been cold, and the box office has not met expectations!"

"The word-of-mouth box office of "Hummingbird" is 'polarized', Li Jingkun will find it difficult to create a myth!"

"Li Jingkun's new film Waterloo, the theaters urgently lower the screening rate!"

""Hummingbird" lacks stamina and has a big decline, so Li Daojiang just wants to change careers?"

What about Li Jingkun?

Of course, it is still normal to participate in roadshow activities!

According to the real situation they encountered, of course, the audience and fans are very enthusiastic. Every theater is full of people, and there are also many fans who have been watching twice and thrice!
But in fact, it is true that theaters across the country have reduced the number of films scheduled.

But "Hummingbird" is still a literary film, and the production cost is only so much!

If it weren't for the large number of theaters in China, if it wasn't for Li Jingkun and "Hummingbird" making such a big noise in the past year, if it weren't for their road show, how could they have such a high box office now!
Now the box office is more than 1 million, and the box office is still bad?

He didn't think the box office was bad at all, but he was a little surprised!
Of course, investors and distributors such as Perfect Planet and Huaying must be a little disappointed, and the box office must have failed to meet their "expected".

I thought I couldn't get 10 billion at the box office, at least half of it would be fine, right?Otherwise, one-third is also acceptable.

Unexpectedly, this result was unexpected-in fact, it was also Versailles, after all, they made money, and they made a lot of money!
Just no big surprises.

But please think about it, every movie I collaborated with Li Jingkun has made money!
Moreover, the production cost of "Hummingbird" is only a little over a thousand, so the rate of return is already very high, right?
What's funny is that many good friends also called and sent messages to comfort him, fearing that he would be hit...

Well, I made hundreds of millions before, but now I only earn tens of millions, so I should be really sad...

As for the network, Li Jingkun didn't bother to respond, many of them were just for traffic and attention.

Of course, there are also many people who don't know why they believe this set of rhetoric, thinking that he is really dead.

But he can bear it, but his fans can't.

Soon some netizens posted a short article on the bib to support him!
""Hummingbird" has been in theaters for more than ten days, with a box office of more than [-] million. With this result, many people say that Li Jingkun is "exhausted" and "Waterloo"?

I wanted to see how Li Jingkun would respond, but in the end he was either posting photos of the road show, or complaining about fans asking him to sing again, and he didn't pay attention to these things at all...

Probably too lazy to respond!

But he didn't respond. As a movie fan, I really can't complain!

First, what type of movie is Hummingbird?It's just a story about a junior high school girl, all kinds of pressure and indifference she encountered in school and family. It can be said that it is a literary film!

For a literary film, how much box office do you think it can get?
Second, how much did "Hummingbird" cost to produce?
1200 million!Mid-budget movie!

How much is the box office now?
It's more than one billion, how can I say it's a profit, okay?

This is called 'Waterloo'?
I think this kind of 'Waterloo' many companies want to slide several times a year, right?
Third, "Hummingbird" has been nominated for 16 international film festivals around the world, 11 of which finally won awards.This is a good result that is rarely seen in movies all over the world!
As a result, some people say that this is called 'Jiang Lang's talent is exhausted'?
Fourth, don't forget, "Hummingbird" was filmed and produced before "Detective Chinatown". The reason why it was screened so late is because it has to travel to film festivals all over the world...
To sum up, I really don't know how the viewpoints of 'exhausted talents' and 'Waterloo' among friends in the media and netizens come from.

No matter how I look or think, I feel that Li Jingkun won again, and it was a big win..."

This netizen named "Tiansheng Menghuo" wrote a lot of eloquently, but the content is very simple and easy to understand, and what he said is also well-founded, so he has won the approval and approval of many people!
