China Entertainment: The happiness of being a director is as simple as that

Chapter 213 During the Lunar New Year, Xingchen’s business is booming
What Director Xu said was much more detailed than what Uncle Dong said.

In March next year, global bidding will begin.

This is the primary election. Those who pass the primary election will enter the bidding site, followed by the first round of elections.

The first round of elections will be held in September next year.

At that time, each team is limited to 50 minutes. The team first submits the planning plan, and then the team leader will make a statement.

At that time, Chen Da Poet will be officially promoted to "Great Poet".

Regardless of whether the great poet really went there empty-handed or not, Lu Pingan would never learn from him.

Otherwise, people will say that Brother Renkai has recited a poem anyway, and you have nothing, are you embarrassed?
So Lu Pingan decided that since he was invited to run for office, he still had to correct his attitude.

Fortunately, it was still early and the plan was already in place, so Lu Ping An didn't have much pressure.

After coming out from Director Xu, Lu Pingan went straight back to the company.

This time I went out to discuss a total of three projects, which need to be implemented.

"Painted Skin", "Initial D" and "Blue Red".

Among them, "Initial D" is a little more important, and I have to shoot it in a few days.

"Painted Skin" just waits for Chen Jiashang to come up with the script.

"Qinghong" is relatively easy, just send someone to sign the contract when the time comes.

The rest of the time was spent working on Pacific Rim.

This is a big drama, and there are many difficulties in the early preparations, so we must treat it well.

As soon as things were arranged, it was evening.

It just so happened that Yan Danchen was at home today and had hot meals when he returned home.

Zeng Li was still on the set of "Smoke in Peking" over there, not far from the set, in Huairou Film and Television City.

Lu Pingan would not go, not because he couldn't leave Zeng, but because he went to cause a lot of trouble.

After all, "Moment in Peking" is starring Little Swallow.

Didn't it create heat for her?

So I will meet Zeng Li again in a few days.

Back at Yan Danchen's villa, Yan Danchen happened to be halfway through dinner.

Having nothing to say, Lu Pingan rolled up his sleeves and began to help.

We cook together and watch TV together.

TV is still "Detective Di Renjie".

It's just that Yan Danchen was not very honest, fumbling with his little hands.

Lu Ping'an knew that this somewhat meant to check whether there was enough food in stock.

He actually didn't understand.

Knowing that even if it is done five times in the same night, there is not much difference between before and after, such an inspection is basically useless, why is she still so happy with it?
But Lu Pingan didn't intend to make it clear.

Just like Gao Yuanyuan said, he will spend at least a few more years.

To make it clear so early is to put shackles on himself, and he is not happy.

So here we go.

When the time is right, let's take a look at the great cause of life
Time flies, and after entering December, the mainland film industry has also started to celebrate the New Year.

According to the media, this year's Lunar New Year file is actually a contest between two movies.

"A World Without Thieves" on December 12 and "Kung Fu" on December 9.

During the Lunar New Year period, although Xingchen Film and Television did not have its own projects to participate in the battle.

But "A World Without Thieves" and "Kung Fu" have something to do with Star Films.

The former has a 20% share, and the latter has 3D special effects support.

One is related to box office interests, and the other is related to the future market.

In addition, when blockbuster movies start to fight, theaters are naturally the most profitable.

So Lu Pingan had to keep an eye on it.

Yan Danchen, the little proprietress, has also been paying attention to the situation of No. [-] shop a long time ago.

Speaking of which, she is quite capable of management.

A store is managed by her in an orderly manner, which is very humane.

Yan Danchen attaches great importance to business.

On the one hand, apart from the fact that this is its own industry, it is also well-supported by the media.

Many media shouted there before the Lunar New Year stalls.

It is said that the two movies in the Lunar New Year file will not be worse than the summer file!

I don't know where this confidence comes from.

But many people believe it.

Because "Wonderful Night" has won a super high box office, many people still think it is accidental.

They feel that the market potential is already there, but there are no good works to activate it.

Now, the two blockbuster films in the Lunar New Year file are definitely masterpieces, and one of them is also supported by 3D technology, so the box office is definitely not bad.

There must be a rhythmic meaning in the announcement of the film, which is used to mobilize the enthusiasm of the whole people to watch movies.

In this regard, Lu Pingan is happy to see the success.

It's no shame that the box office record is surpassed, and he doesn't care.

And he is now a theater owner, the more lively the movie market is, the better it is for him.

The 30 newly opened theaters under his banner have a total of close to 100 theaters, but they are waiting for this wave of shrinking to return to the cycle.

So for the reporter's interview, Lu Pingan generously sent blessings:
"I hope that both films will achieve great results, and I also wish our films will get better and better!"

With Lu Ping'an's generous blessings, the New Year's Eve battle officially kicked off.

12 month 9 number.

Lu Pingan attended the premiere of "A World Without Thieves".

Baoqiang's painting style on the stage is unique, like a quail.

Everyone couldn't get excited about such a sand sculpture-like actor.

But when the movie ended, many people realized that this silly boy might be on fire!
Sure enough, the movie was released for less than a week, and as the movie box office continued to rise, Baoqiang really became popular.

Spring River Plumbing Duck Prophet.

Lu Ping'an's Burger King put up a poster of Baoqiang on the first day of its release, and launched an advertisement on the TV station that night.

Starting from the second day, the daily sales of Burger King in Beijing increased by 10%, and rose steadily in the following days.

Li Chenggong was very happy about this.

The fried chicken restaurant has exploded once again, and its market share has increased simultaneously. It is just around the corner to become a significant brand nationwide in the future.

For this, Ping An Road naturally has 1 support.

But again, hygiene must be taken care of.

The "Sudan incident" will break out next year.

Burger King can't afford to stumble on this.

"A World Without Thieves" continues to be popular.

Ping An's affiliated theaters also continue to thrive.

For the movies he invested in, Lu Pingan would naturally schedule the movies.

So the Hollywood movie "Garfield" at the same time will say goodbye to you.

In late December, "Kung Fu" was finally released.

At this time, "A World Without Thieves" has been released for two weeks, and the box office has exceeded [-] million.

The media also began to repost the topic of "Whether Feng Dapao can beat Zhou Xingxing in a fight".

Hua Tsai is very honest, saying that it is normal to be defeated by Zhou Xingxing.

Feng Dapao was a little unhappy.

But the fact is that "Kung Fu" can indeed be played.

Director Zhou Xingxing + Zhou's comedy + 3D.

This time "Kung Fu" is more vigorous than the original time and space.

After the 3D baptism of the summer file, the freshness is still there, and the fans are even more enthusiastic. They see another 3D movie released, and it can be watched in more than 100 theaters across the country.

So countless people entered the theater.

And the quality of "Kung Fu" is better than "A World Without Thieves", even better than many current movies.

The movie ratings on Tianya have already reached 9.0!
High reputation + high-quality visual effects.

This time, the movie-watching craze that everyone is looking forward to is as hot as during the summer file "Wonderful Night".

In addition, the 3D movie ticket book is expensive, and the bottom line is 50 yuan!
For a while, the box office of "Kung Fu" soared.

One week at the box office, 9500 million!
During the same period, "A World Without Thieves" was released for three weeks, with a box office of 1.24 million. It is expected that the number of releases will reach 1.5 million, which is much better than the 1.2 million releases of the original time and space, but the defeat of "Kung Fu" is a foregone conclusion.

Therefore, Feng Dapao also used "invited Zhou Xingxing to play a cameo, but he broke the appointment" to create a topic.

The topic is big, but it is useless to boost the box office.

According to media predictions, the final box office of "Kung Fu" is likely to exceed 2.5 million or even 3 million.

This figure is about 1.7 million higher than the [-] million in the original time and space.

The premise is that the problem of piracy can be solved.

But now it seems unlikely.

Because pirates are also advancing with the times, this time the two movies were pirated in the first week, which still had a great impact on the box office.

But fortunately, "Kung Fu" has a 3D version.

This also made the two Huayi brothers regret it.

They regret why "A World Without Thieves" does not use 3D.

Lu Pingan had mentioned this matter at the beginning, but faced with the cost of at least 1500 million and the fact that the movie was not suitable for 3D, Mr. and Mrs. Wang finally refused.

But now they finally realize it.

It doesn't matter whether the 3D is suitable or not, what matters is whether there is such a gimmick and an anti-piracy version!
It's not just the big and small kings who realize this, but also many filmmakers and theaters.

The success of "Wonderful Night" has led some people to introduce related technologies. This time, Lu Ping'an's business will be even bigger!

that's the truth.

After "Kung Fu" set off another round of movie-watching craze.

The calls to IMAX Technology came to a head.

"Seven Swords" even directly said that the contract can be signed on the same day.

Of course, there are also those who dismiss Lu Ping'an's IMAX, such as the great poet.

The producer of "The Promise" once again suggested the great poet to introduce this technology at the first time.

Chen Hong is also persuading, saying that it is only 1500 million yuan, which is a trivial matter for "The Promise" with such a large cost.

Lu Ping'an is an alumnus again, so he has a good relationship, so don't always have problems with him!
Not only 3D, but also special effects can cooperate with Lu Pingan.

But the great poet still refused.

This is not the first time he has refused.

The reasons are also strong.

"3D is Laomei's technology. If you want to do it, why not go directly to Laomei's company?"

indeed.

The current information about 3D technology on the market is the Hollywood technology introduced by Lu Pingan.

This was also the way Lu Ping An paid for his technology at that time.

In this era, "domestic" is not a compliment, especially in terms of technology.

Of course, Lu Pingan will not always use the excuse of "import".

When the time is right, he will announce slogans such as "invest xx funds, spend xx time, innovate independently, break through the upper limit, and lead the world".

In this way, it is reasonable for domestic technology to be superior to foreign ones.

And such a promotional slogan will be released next month in his plan.

The purpose is to create momentum for "Pacific Rim".

It's just that I didn't expect that "The Promise" was used first.

"The Promise will introduce Hollywood's most advanced special effects and 3D technology."

A piece of news made Lu Pingan a little confused.

If Xiang Guoqiang is not mistaken, he is well aware that Laomei's 3D technology is not yet mature, which is why Road Pingan's IMAX technology will have the advantage to acquire various companies.

So where can I introduce "The Promise"?
Lu Ping'an felt that the great poet would most likely spend wasted money this time.

Good luck to him!
