China Entertainment has been a director since 08

Chapter 128 "The King's Feast"

"My Motherland and Me" was released for the first four days, and the box office reached 6.3 million!
It was released for seven days in the second week, the box office reached 8.5 million, and the cumulative box office reached 14.8 billion!
A series of records were broken!

And this is not the focus of the box office, because next, enterprises, institutions, schools, and state-owned enterprises will organize a round of watching movies.

Although these movie tickets are often discounted, many people can't help but watch them.

And it was released in two weeks, which caused great repercussions. I don’t know how many people put up red flags at home, and put two small red flags in their cars.

However, Li Hao returned to the filming base after the seven-day National Day holiday.

At this time, the crew also returned from vacation.

Li Hao continues to film "The Martian"!
After ten days of shooting, the last scene was finally shot.

But this is just the role of the actors. Next, Li Hao and the others had to film the reconstructed terrain. This part took a full five days to shoot.

And this also means that "The Martian" has officially entered post-production.

Just when Li Hao returned to the capital, he got good news and bad news.

The good news is that his "The Martian" has sold 500 million copies in North America and Europe, becoming a bestseller.

The bad news is that he was sued by someone from Andy Weir for copyright infringement and plagiarism.

It turns out that Andy Weir wrote "Mission to Mars" in 2009, and he serialized it on the Internet for free reading.

Li Hao quickly searched for someone to translate, and then Li Hao finally breathed a sigh of relief.

The title of his own book is "The Martian", and the title of the other party's book is "Mission to Mars".

And even though they all happened on Mars, he wrote about NASA, while Li Hao wrote about China Space Agency. The number of characters, their names, and their personalities are different, and even the year is different.

The other party is still the space shuttle and Saturn V, but Li Hao has written a lot of "The Martian".

And what the other party wrote was abandoned, but he didn't have it here.

There are too many differences.

It can't involve the Martian storm. What happened on Mars is plagiarism.

There is no need for Li Hao to worry about this matter. The company directly hired a law firm in the United States to take charge of this matter, and Li Hao didn't even need to come forward.

But I don't know who is acting as a demon to expose this matter.

Suddenly the whole country was in an uproar.

"It is reported that the science fiction novel "The Martian" written by Li Hao is plagiarized!"

"The well-known director Li Hao's "The Martian" was accused of plagiarism, and he may face sky-high compensation!"

"The owner of Haotian Media, Li Hao, was accused of plagiarism and will be arrested soon!"

"."

One piece of news came out.

"Damn it, the real ones are all big bosses, and they are still plagiarizing?"

"It's hard to imagine, let me just say, how can there be a writer in China who can write such a good science fiction novel, so it's plagiarism!"

"Ahem~~ Upstairs, please go and see "The Wandering Earth" and "Three-Body Problem", works by Da Liu!"

"How can a director still be a novel?"

"Ignorance, look at others, I wrote online novels when I was in high school, one of the supreme gods of online literature, please talk about it after you understand!"

"."

On the Internet, Weibo, Tianya Forum, Tieba, etc. are very popular, and the news directly becomes the top search list.

Li Hao didn't explain.

And someone has already found Andy Weir's "Mars Mission" novel and translated it into the original language.

Soon the situation was reversed.

After all, judging from the two, "The Martian" has more than 33 words, while "Mission to Mars" is only 20 words after translation, and then one looks at it, and there is a huge difference.

Immediately one by one cursed.

At the same time, Li Hao also posted a message on his personal Weibo, claiming that a team of North American lawyers had been invited to respond to the lawsuit.

Li Hao no longer paid attention to this matter, so naturally a lawyer would resolve it.

Li Hao is busy with post-production, editing, color grading, special effects production, and original soundtrack. Although the shooting time this time is short, and Tiangong was added early, but the production of special effects will take at least 2 months.

For some technologies that Tiangong Yicai did not master, they went to the world to invite talented people.

It took half a month to complete the editing, and another ten days to complete the color correction.

The actor's voice work is all done during filming.

Even if there are flaws, it is just a supplementary recording.

As for the original soundtrack, it is still in progress. Li Hao is a little dissatisfied with several pieces of music and is re-producing them.

At this time, "My Motherland and Me" was drawn, and the total box office reached 19.8 billion!
The box office of the entire National Day file was basically absorbed by "My Motherland and Me", so that other movies throughout October and the first half of November were extremely dismal.

"Taken 2" was released on October 10, and it became cannon fodder directly, with a domestic box office of less than 7 million.

"The Twilight Saga: Breaking Dawn", the box office in the mainland is 4 million!
Hollywood blockbuster, suddenly no longer popular!
Throughout November, the market was quite bleak. Lu Teng brought "The King's Feast" to release on November 11. This movie was regarded by Lu Teng as a box office hit and married Qin Lan. Lu Teng was full of confidence and called it a good movie.

As a result, when the first week's box office came out, everyone was dumbfounded.

The box office in the first week was less than 3000 million.

And "The King's Feast" is claimed to be 9000 million. It is said that Qin Lan gave Lu Ting a subsidy of 1000 million to complete the filming of this movie.

This is the result? !
Not only did the box office fail in the first week, but it even had a poor reputation.

Everyone didn't understand what happened to Lu Ting!
You know, Lu Teng was known as the leader of the new generation of directors before, but in the past few years, the movies are not as good as one!
Thinking about it again, at the premiere, Lu Ting made a bold statement that he would win 7 million box office, and now he has been slapped in the face.

"boom!"

Pushing the keyboard back heavily, Lu Teng patted the computer table with a full face of aggrieved expression.

The box office on the first day was 800 million, the box office on the second day was 1500, and the box office on the first four days was less than 3000 million!

It is not a little bit difficult for the total box office to break through [-] million, unless there are all bad movies in the back, everyone compares bad movies, and the audience has no choice, so there is hope!

The costume blockbuster carefully crafted by myself finally ushered in such a result!

It's not reconciled to show it!
But unwilling to return, the promotion of the film still needs to continue, otherwise there is really no hope at all.

Although he was ready to be made things difficult by the reporters, Lu Ting was still super upset when he was surrounded by dozens of reporters and asked some face-slapping questions.

"We are not ashamed to get 3000 million at the box office in the first week. This is actually expected. I believe that the quality of the movie will make the box office go lower. After all, a good movie always needs to be savored slowly. The more you watch it, the better it will be."

Lu Ting was as confident as the premiere a few days ago.

But the reporter is not so easy to dismiss, and a reporter immediately asked: "Director Lu, you said before that you will marry Miss Qin Lan as long as the box office is successful, so is your marriage contract still counting now?"

This time, not only Lu Teng, but also Qin Lan's face changed again and again.
