China Entertainment: Gao Yanei wants to be the best actor

Chapter 305 A man who speaks like a man can be a teacher! 【[-] in [-]】

As the moon bends over Kyushu, some people are happy while others are worried.

How happy Gao Fei is, how depressed Zhang Ziyi is.

After all, who made "Perfect" and "Looking for the Dragon" be released on the same day.

Although the types of the two films are different and the target groups are also different, it is inevitable that some people will compare them together.

Compared with the box office performance of "Looking for the Dragon" in the first week of 1.13 million, "Perfect" is inferior by [-] million points.

It was also the first three days, and it was also the prime time of summer, but "Perfect" only got 500 million box office.

Of course, this result is actually very good compared to other movies.

But I am always afraid of comparison. When Zhang Ziyi learned about the first-week results of "Looking for the Dragon" through China Film Group, she immediately became depressed.

Seeing this situation, Fan Bingbing, who wanted to flatter Zhang Ziyi forcibly, immediately shut up.

After all, although "Perfect" is a love movie, Zhang Ziyi did not spend less investment, and the production cost alone cost a full 5000 million.

And based on this number, the producers with a box office of over [-] million can barely protect their capital.

Just judging from the current box office trend, it is probably hopeless for "Perfect" to exceed [-] million.

After this encounter, Fan Bingbing felt more and more that the development route he chose was right.

Compared with making movies, TV drama projects are a little safer.

As for movies... Occasionally planning two literary films to win awards and improve the standard is enough, anyway, it doesn't cost much!
I have to say that Fan Bingbing knows what it means to "cross the river by feeling the stones".

In the past, she crossed the river by touching Gao Fei, and now she can naturally cross the river by touching Zhang Ziyi, a stone.

I just don't know if she can always be so lucky to successfully go ashore.

……

At the same time, Gao Fei, who was having a good time in the small bar, naturally didn't know how disappointed the "Perfect" crew was.

Of course, even if he knew, he wouldn't care.

Because of Zhang Ziyi's "Perfect", after the road show, he took the time to watch it, which can be considered as a way to find out the enemy's situation.

It was only after watching the movie that Gao Fei was relieved.

The plot of this movie is low-level, Gao Fei couldn't figure out why Zhang Ziyi didn't let the screenwriter revise the script.

Could it be that as an old actor, she can't see that the personality of Sophie's character doesn't match her temperament at all?
An actor who can play Yu Jiaolong so that the audience can't tell the difference, how can he be a fool!

Or does she think that her acting skills can perfectly control all genres?
If this is the case, then Zhang Ziyi is obviously overconfident this time.

Because no actor can fit all roles!

This has nothing to do with acting, it is purely a law of nature.

To give the simplest example, let’s say Li Ming, he and Huang Xiaoming are classmates, and Gao Fei collaborated with him a few years ago when he was filming "The Legend of Condor Heroes".

From Gao Fei's point of view, his acting skills are about 2.5 yellow.

It's not that Gao Fei looks down on Huang Xiaoming, but that Li Ming's level is really strong.

After all, he played the role of Qiu Qianchi in reverse, not to mention not letting the audience play, but also bringing new ideas to his performance, which is enough to show his skill.

But if you let him play the most beautiful man in the world, then even the best acting skills will be useless.

Gao Fei believed that Zhang Ziyi would not be ignorant of this.

Just like Mr. Luo Xiang, who worked with Gao Fei before, said:

"The biggest problem with people is that they like to think highly of themselves and belittle others."

Therefore, Zhang Ziyi, who returned from Hollywood, probably doesn't pay much attention to the domestic entertainment industry.

So it's still Teacher Luo's words:
People should accept their limitations, admit their ignorance, and maintain relative rationality.

You can be a teacher by setting an example!
……

The next morning.

After a night of carnival, Gao Fei got up early.

And Liu Xiaoli, who got up early, saw Gao Fei walking the horse on the racetrack, and Dang even felt a little hot.

After all, affected by the environment last night, she couldn't help but danced for a while.

You must know that she has opened a dance show, and she can do a lot of Mongolian dance.

Therefore, although she has not danced for many years, the first performance caused bursts of cheers and whistles, and Liu Yifei, who was watching from the side, was stunned.

She had never seen her mother look so high-spirited.

To be honest, compared with Liu Xiaoli when dancing, Liu Yifei in the crowd is indeed quite inferior.

This has nothing to do with appearance, it is purely a difference in temperament.

It's just that Liu Xiaoli felt so embarrassed about how happy she was dancing last night.

For a moment, she couldn't help but regret the presumptuousness of last night.

So after nodding with Gao Fei in a strong and calm manner, she turned and left in a little panic.

Gao Fei didn't pay much attention, and turned around to continue chatting with Han Li.

Faced with Han Li's suggestion, Gao Fei shook his head without hesitation and said:

"This time it's purely a coincidence. It's impossible for me to come up with a popular TV series as a foreshadowing before every movie is released."

Gao Fei did not deny that Han Li attributed most of the credit for the announcement to himself.

However, Gao Fei did not agree to Han Li's suggestion that the next film in the "Ghost Blowing the Lantern" series should not seek other investors and be produced directly by Gao Fei's studio.

Therefore, he knew in his heart that doing so seemed to maximize the benefits, but it might not be able to really earn the maximum benefits.

Don't talk about anything else, let's just talk about the incident of Gao Fei annoyed film critics.

Although they left the stage in embarrassment because of the support of netizens before, the follow-up still had an impact.

After the release of "Looking for the Dragon" a few days ago, this group of parasites slandered Gao Fei's new film in various ways in the media.

He even directly labeled Gao Fei and attacked him personally.

But this time, before Han Li made a move, several investors settled the matter.

Not to mention that the final filming had no effect at all, and the group of parasites was also helped to deal with it, so Gao Fei didn't worry at all.

Because "Looking for the Dragon" is about to explode at the box office, neither Shanghai Film nor Optical Fiber Pictures will allow anyone to block their way of making money.

Moreover, the box office of a movie is not only related to the quality of the movie itself, but also inseparable from the announcement and scheduling of the movie.

If Gao Fei hadn't brought Shanghai Film and Fiber Optic Pictures in this time, then facing the slander of other blockbusters in the same period, even if "Looking for the Dragon" won in the end, it might not win so much box office.

After all, you can't slander you, and the same goes for movies that blacken you.

Therefore, compared to eating a full mouthful, a long flow of water is the kingly way.

Only by not eating alone can you really grow fatter.

If you want to eat alone, then whether you can get enough for the first bite is a matter of opinion, and you may not have to eat in the future.

Therefore, in Gao Fei's view, joint production and joint publicity are actually the general trend of the film and television industry, and there is a high probability that they will become the mainstream of the film and television industry in the future.

This is actually the same as the role of the American Film Association controlled by the six major Hollywood companies.

Fight without breaking, and maintain a certain tacit understanding, which is good for everyone.

And once the film market is chaotic and disorderly, it will only make everyone have nothing to eat.

This is why Zhang Weiping clearly holds the trump card of Lao Mouzi, but after more than ten years, the new picture is still just a family workshop.

However, Huayi Brothers, who started almost at the same time, have reached their current position as the leader of private film and television companies step by step by relying on Feng Xiaogang.

In the final analysis, it was because Zhang Weiping liked eating alone too much.

So layout is the key!
It’s not shameful to sell boxed lunches, but it’s a bit shameful if you can’t get out of the pattern of selling boxed lunches for a lifetime.

From this point of view, Zhang Weiping's success is actually purely coincidental, due to the times.

At the end, I saw Gao Fei feel a little grateful to Han Li and said:
"Movies are ultimately a high-stakes business."

"Some risks we cannot control, but we can still intervene in some risks."

Hearing this, Han Li suddenly thought deeply:

"Joint production and joint publicity are essentially to reduce human risks?"

"Not bad!"

Gao Fei laughed and said:

"Besides, after the cake grows bigger, we may not make less money than before, and we can be safer, so why not do it!"

Speaking of this, this topic is almost over.

After understanding Gao Fei's intentions, Han Li also understood what to do next.

So after saying hello to Gao Fei, he left in a hurry.

Just looking at Han Li's back, Gao Fei suddenly showed an inexplicable smile.

In fact, Gao Fei didn't tell Han Li just now.

That is "this time, that time".

This six-character mantra was also learned by Gao Fei from those civil servants in his early years.

When you are weak, don't show your fangs prematurely.

The best way is to make others think that you are a rabbit... just like the flower growers in the early years.

And when others think you are a rabbit, you'd better show your fangs from time to time... just like the florists now.

Everything in the world, in fact, is often the same.

……

It is said that after receiving Gao Fei's verbal commitment to continue to cooperate, Shanghai Film, Optical Fiber Pictures and other investors became more and more satisfied.

After all, "Ghost Blowing Lantern" is obviously a series, and with the good start of "Looking for the Dragon", the risks of the "Ghost Blowing Lantern" series will obviously be greatly reduced.

And companies like Shanghai Film and Huayi, like this kind of safe film project the most.

Therefore, in the following post-screening announcements, several investors did not play any tricks, and continued to output steadily.

"Perfect", which was released on the same day as "Looking for the Dragon", was originally similar to "Looking for the Dragon" in terms of cast and lineup.

However, as the gap between the two box office became wider and wider, the theaters immediately made decisive adjustments and began to continuously reduce the lineup of "Perfect", and turned around and added the reduced lineup to "Looking for the Dragon".

The so-called "the way of man is to sacrifice what is not enough and give what is more than enough" is just like this.

Even though Zhang Ziyi begged for help several times, the theaters still didn't give any face.

However, compared to the soaring box office, the word-of-mouth of "Looking for the Dragon" is somewhat mixed.

Even though several producers have tried their best to control the reviews, but one week after the release, the effect of such control reviews is minimal.

……

[Shave your head and come to see]: The antiques were not handed over to the country, which must be praised!
[Lingzhou Jingyue]: In order to expand the target audience, the plot is weakened and the visual effects are strengthened. There are some flaws, but as a commercial blockbuster, it is still good!
【Love reading but not study】:
If ten points are used as the standard, then the plot is seven points, which is barely a pass.

[-] points for special effects, [-] points for casting, the actor is really suitable.

Overall, eight points, not bad, worth the fare.

[Xilingyuan]: Thinking about it carefully, how did Ding Sitian die?

【Xiaobai 37】: In the southeast gate of death, there is a ghost blowing a lamp—it really is an authentic touch of gold!
[Night·Stars]: I just want to ask a question, what has Xia Yu experienced in these years?
[Little Ten Pretty Boys]: The design of the underground palace is really good, it's crazy enough, it suits my appetite.I hope the producer can set up a theme park like Disney, and I will definitely be the first to buy tickets when the time comes!
……

Of course, there are also some bad things.

For example, some netizens sent a thousand-character long article lamenting that the movie is too shallow and meaningless.

But isn't it the greatest significance for a commercial film to make the audience enjoy watching it?If you pursue other things, you will lose everything!

However, no matter whether it is praise or scolding, Gao Fei's mood is not affected, because the box office of "Looking for the Dragon" is still rising all the way.

So Gao Fei, who was quietly resting at the racecourse, just watched the box office of "Looking for the Dragon" break through [-] million in the first week, and break [-] million on the [-]th, constantly setting new records.

And the crazy box office performance of "Looking for the Dragon" also made several movies in the same period frightened.

If it weren't for the announcement of the money already spent, it is estimated that many movies can't help but want to withdraw and reschedule, such as the convenience of the production of "Robot Man".

And the subsequent release performance of "Robot Man" really proved this point.

Although "Robot Man" and "Looking for the Dragon" are both under the banner of "investment over [-] million" and "special effects blockbuster", after it was released, it was almost completely condemned.

After watching the movie, many viewers were so angry that they scolded their mothers.

"Pile up a bunch of messy jokes and pretend to be stupid, it's really naive and superficial, and it insults the audience's IQ!"

This is the most liked movie review on the Internet.

Many fans who were influenced by "A Chinese Journey to the West" even blocked the director Liu Zhenwei in their hearts after watching it.

Because in their view, the rottenness of "Robot Man" seems to be a problem of the director's level on the surface, but in fact it is a problem of the director's mentality.

This kind of perfunctory farce obviously shows that the director has no sincerity and only wants to make money. This not only disrespects the audience, but also disrespects the film.

Therefore, although Robot Man won more than 1000 million box office in the first week, it can almost declare failure.

Of course, it is definitely impossible to invest more than [-] million yuan in "Robot Man" with the integrity of director Xiangjiang.

But judging from the picture of the movie, even if "Robot Man" doesn't have an investment of 4000 million, there will always be [-] to [-] million, so it is certain that the movie will lose money.

But it's not just "Cyborg" who pulls his hips.

After the release of "Empire of Silver", which also claims to have invested over [-] million yuan, its box office in the first week was not as good as Cyborg.

In the first five days, it only got a measly 600 million box office. The lead actor Guo Fucheng was so angry that he flew back to Xiangjiang that day, not to get involved in the following things.

After all, who made director Yao Shuhua always brag during roadshows and say: What we want to do is to make experts able to see the way, and laymen can also watch the excitement.

But it turns out that whether you are an insider or an outsider, you are always just watching a joke in the end.

……

However, the joys and sorrows of human beings are not always interlinked.

When the producers of "Robot Man" and "Empire of Silver" sighed, Gao Fei, who was hiding in the Xiongan Racecourse, almost died of laughter.

Because although there are many movies released in the summer vacation in August, the four movies that can be called blockbusters are "Robot Man", "Silver Empire", "Perfect" and "Looking for the Dragon".

It can be said that most of the media publicity resources during this period have been occupied by them.

And when those audiences who were aroused by the announcement of "Robot Man" and "Empire of Silver" walked into the cinema, because the word-of-mouth of the two films themselves had collapsed, many people temporarily decided to watch "Looking for the Dragon". " up.

After all, to a certain extent, the announcement of a movie is to draw the audience into the movie theater.

So just like that, half a month after the release of "Looking for the Dragon", when the box office was weak, the box office of "Looking for the Dragon" unexpectedly soared again because of the selfless assists of "Mech Man" and "Silver Empire" , broke through the [-] million mark with ease, and there was even a box office drop.

Even the word-of-mouth of "Looking for the Dragon Jue" started to rise against the backdrop of these two.

All these things really made Gao Fei so excited that he wanted to send pennants to these two families.

There's no way, it's too self-sacrificing!

Of course, luckily Gao Fei didn't send it away, otherwise there would have been two more enemies designated.

It's just that it wasn't long after Gao Fei finished mocking the two producers, and he turned around and did the same thing as them...
