Actor: My Entertainment Era

Chapter 459 Finalists

This year's National Day film schedule is extremely unreasonable. Not to mention blockbuster movies like "Looper", four movies were released in four days before the holiday started, and not a single new movie was released from the 4st to the 4th of the holiday.

During the National Day holiday last year, the three films "Revolution of 16", "Painting on the Wall" and "The Legend of White Snake" were in full swing, but the results of the three films were not good. Last year's National Day box office dropped by [-]% year-on-year.

This year, in order to boost confidence, relevant experts shouted the slogan of 5 million. Because this year's Mid-Autumn Festival and National Day coincided with each other, an eight-day holiday was allocated.

But many people are not optimistic about the 5 million target, because during the holidays this year, highways will be free, which will inevitably attract many people to travel and cause diversion to theaters.

There is no need to compare tourism income and theater income.

Among them, "Tongque Terrace" was the best-seller. Fa Ge worked extremely hard to promote this film. He couldn't help but work hard. Zhou Runfa has been vacant in the past few years but has no actual achievements - the three best actors in "Let the Bullets Fly" are the same Taiwan, he is not a perfect actor, and the film’s achievement is Jiang Wen - if he doesn’t work hard, the audience will really forget about him.

The heroine was Liu Yifei's "good sister" Jiang Yiyan.

"Tongque Terrace" is a project of Changying, which is relatively easy to capture. The cake shop owner added her to the crew without much effort.

Next is the cyber martial arts blockbuster "Tai Chi 1" launched by Huayi. This is a project promoted by Cheng Guofu. In fact, Huayi is not optimistic about this series internally.

Since this year, there has been a lot of news that Cheng Guofu is leaving Huayi. Although both parties have always denied this, many people in the industry know that the contract between Cheng Guofu and Huayi is indeed about to expire, and the two parties should be talking about renewing the contract. But what the conditions are, the outside world does not know yet.

If Cheng Guofu really leaves Huayi, whether he will join another company or start his own business independently, the outside world is also speculating.

The industry is mostly positive about Cheng Guofu's achievements at Huayi in recent years, but some people are dissatisfied with Cheng Guofu's use of Huayi, the largest private film studio, to promote Bay Island artists.

But in business, as long as you make money, Cheng Guofu has indeed made a lot of money for Huayi in recent years and made great contributions.

It is because of this that Huayi recognized the "Tai Chi" series with a pinch of nose.

There are two blockbusters competing against each other during the National Day holiday, and at the same time, two enemies meet again - Zhang Ziyi and Fan Bingbing.

The former will be starring in "Dangerous Liaisons" with Zhang Dongjian on the 27th, and the latter's "Double Exposure" will be released on the 29th.

The two have been feuding for a long time and had a feud as early as the "Perfect" period.

However, the market is generally not optimistic about these two films.

The market has proven that Chow Yun-fat is an actor who has a lot of space but no box office appeal. The audience knows that he is good at acting, but they rarely buy tickets because of him.

"Tongquetai" surprised the outside world with its opening result of 850 million on the first day.

"Tai Chi 1" was even worse, with 810 million.

Such opening results made people who had previously had expectations for the schedule instantly speechless. No matter how miserable it was, it wouldn't be like this.

The opening of a blockbuster during the National Day prime time period is less than [-] million yuan. Who would believe it?

The big shame is "Tongque Terrace". "Tongque Terrace" has a certain theme and lineup, and "Tai Chi 1" has a certain theme and lineup.

What's even more embarrassing is that "Tongque Terrace" did not surpass "Tai Chi 1" at the box office in its first week. "Tongque Terrace" took in 3200 million, and "Tai Chi 1" took in 3400 million.

But Jiang Yiyan didn't care. It made 3200 million in the first weekend, and it was no problem to break [-] million. She issued a press release saying that she was a new star at the box office. It was her first time to play the leading role in a blockbuster and she was "flattered" to achieve such good results.

If the sky is falling, there is someone high to support it. "Tongque Terrace" was carried by Zhou Runfa. It is a drama about men from the Three Kingdoms. It was a box office failure and it is not the actress who is to blame.

On October 10, news came from Bay Island.

The shortlist for the 49th Golden Horse Awards has been announced.

The science fiction drama "Her" directed by Xu Anhua and starring Zhang Yuanjun and Liu Yifei was shortlisted for this year's Golden Horse Awards for Best Feature Film, Best Director, Best Actor, Best Original Screenplay, Best Cinematography, Best Art Design and Best Editing Seven awards.

"Her" participated in this year's Golden Horse Awards as a mainland film, and tied with the local Bay Island film "Girlfriend·Boyfriend" for the most nominations at this year's Golden Horse Awards.

Xu Anhua expressed his gratitude to the Golden Horse for the recognition through the media the next day. The leading actor Zhang Yuanjun also said on Weibo: "Being nominated is the greatest recognition." As for whether to go, Zhang Yuanjun did not reply.

As soon as the holidays are over, the schedule battle report will be released.

During the eight days of this year's National Day holiday, a total of 8 million yuan was collected at the box office nationwide. "Tai Chi 3.7" earned 1 million yuan during the period, becoming the biggest winner. This also made this prime time period "the most brutal National Day holiday in history."

"Tai Chi 1: From Scratch", "Tongque Terrace", "Dangerous Liaisons", "Double Exposure" and "Loop Messenger" all suffered losses.

Zhang Yuanjun and Liu Yifei were sitting on the fishing boat at home.

Zhang Yuanjun is currently writing invitations in the study. I don’t know what Liu Yifei was thinking. She asked Zhang Yuanjun to write the guest names on the wedding invitation, saying that it would be more sincere.

"If it weren't for my bad handwriting, I could share the burden for you." Liu Yifei said from the side.

"Now it's time to work and you said you're not good at handwriting." Zhang Yuanjun seriously suspected that Liu Yifei was deliberately tormenting her.

"From elementary school to college, if you don't want to show off today, then when will you show off?" Liu Yifei said with a smile.

Zhang Yuanjun said while writing: "Whoever writes invitations by hand these days is only touching themselves, and the guests will not read it seriously."

Liu Yifei generously admitted: "Handwriting reflects sincerity and touches ourselves."

"You are touched. I am the one doing the work. I have to write more than two hundred names for a day." Zhang Yuanjun said while writing, "Why do Zhang Lan and Wang Xiaofei, mother and son, have to write two posts?"

Liu Yifei came over to look at the list. She was also confused and said: "I have confirmed the list several times. If there are mistakes, I have to bite the bullet and write down."

Zhang Yuanjun smiled and said: "I will charge two shares of their posts for two posts. What's wrong with me?"

"Are you getting married because you want to be part of someone else's family?"

"That's not true!" Zhang Yuanjun said with a smile, "My parents have to take back the courtesy they have given me so many years."

"Isn't it all taken back from the boss?" Liu Yifei said.

"This is the benefit of our family. With three of us, we can receive two more gifts." Zhang Yuanjun laughed himself as he spoke.

"Shaobao." Liu Yifei laughed and cursed, "Hurry up and write it, it will be sent out tomorrow."

"I know, I know. Where did you write just now?"

"Zhang Lan."

"Oh, yes, next is Zhang Jizhong." Zhang Yuanjun said to the list, "I'm distracted by you talking to me here. You should leave quickly. If the writing goes wrong later, it will be troublesome." Zhang Yuanjun said in an angry tone.

"Don't forget those foreigners." Liu Yifei said before leaving.

"Do foreigners also accept posts?"

"Leon and Nolan both said they wanted to keep it as a souvenir."

"Then I'll write them in Spencerian."

"I don't care what style you use." Liu Yifei left the study after saying that.

Zhang Yuanjun wrote all the invitations at 8 o'clock that night and asked someone to take them away. It was sent out one after another the next day.
