Actor: My Entertainment Era

In the week when "Wolverine 3" was released, "John Wick 2" ranked second in revenue, but the gap between the two is very small, so it is not impossible for "John Wick 2" to beat "Wolverine 3".

But after "Resident Evil 6: The Final Chapter" was released the second week, all the movies on the schedule were defeated by Alice.

It’s strange to say, the first three films in the “Resident Evil” series were never released in mainland China, but this year’s “Final Chapter” actually caused such a hot movie-watching craze.

It is impossible for such a big plate to be carried by those lousy game players, so we have to thank piracy for allowing Chinese audiences to watch too many movies. Even if some famous international films cannot be imported, pirated high-definition resources will be brought into the country.

The "Resident Evil" series has finally reached its final chapter. This series of movies has been criticized by fans as weak since the fourth film.

Movie fans joked that the biggest motivation for the series to continue was director Paul Anderson's love for Milla Jovovich: "Paul Anderson really doesn't want to see his wife lose her job."

The global box office of the "Resident Evil" series is not particularly impressive, with the lowest being $3 million and the highest being no more than $2.96 million. The fourth film sold $ million, the best result in the entire series.

Judging from the sixth film so far, the title of "Final Chapter" has indeed attracted some audiences to go to the theaters to put an end to this series of films.

Although the total box office of the six "Resident Evil" movies may not be as good as that of "Avengers".

But "Resident Evil" is still the most successful game-to-movie adaptation. Alice, an original character not from the game, has become a classic screen image under the interpretation of Milla Jovovich.

As of now, if we do not distinguish between domestic films and imported films, the market after the new year will be relatively good.

Apart from bad movies like "The God of Cookery" and "The Madman" that disgusted the audience in mid-to-early February, in the half month from the release of "John Wick 2" to "Resident Evil 2: The Final Chapter", two movies grossed 6 million yuan and one grossed 8 billion yuan, and the gap in the market after the New Year was filled in a timely manner.

"John Wick 2" has grossed over 7 million yuan so far. Despite the competition from "Logan" and "Resident Evil 3", it still has a daily revenue of nearly 6 million yuan. I believe that during the entire release period, "John Wick 2" will be able to break through 8 million yuan as expected.

On the 13th, Zhang Yuanjun and Liu Yifei, along with their two children, Zhang's mother and Liu's mother, as well as the family's nanny, headed to Jinling as a family, waiting for the filming of "Dying to Survive" to start.

When it comes to taking care of children, both mothers were very assertive and said they would take care of the children themselves and would not hire a nanny.

The two mothers even temporarily put aside their own businesses.

Zhang Yuanjun and Liu Yifei felt a headache when they thought about this. The two mothers seldom met each other, so they were usually on good terms with each other. Now they have to raise children under the same roof, and it is easy to imagine that conflicts will arise in the future.

The family did not stay in the hotel arranged by the crew in Jinling, but rented a villa instead.

On the 15th, the crew of "Dying to Survive" started filming.

Director Wen Muye led the crew to burn incense in order to pray for good luck in the start of filming.

The media saw Liu Yifei, who had not been seen for a long time, at the scene. She was wrapped in a down jacket, without any makeup, hat or mask, and stood aside to watch the opening ceremony.

The reporter wanted to approach for an interview but was refused by Liu Yifei's staff.

But we still took a few photos from a distance. From the photos, we can see that except for her face being a little fuller, Liu Yifei recovered very well after giving birth and is in good spirits.

In the interviews after the crew's opening ceremony, reporters' focus was naturally on the biggest star, Zhang Yuanjun.

However, Zhang Yuanjun chose to keep a lot of information about the crew secret and even refused to disclose the complete cast.

Based on previously revealed information, the reporter learned that Zhang Yuanjun plays a small boss who sells Indian magic oil in the movie, so he asked Zhang Yuanjun whether he would shoot large-scale passionate scenes.

Zhang Yuanjun didn't even intend to say this, and said with a funny look on his face: "I sell Indian magic oil, what do you think will happen next?"

At the interview site, Zhang Yuanjun deliberately pushed Wen Muye, hoping that the reporters would ask the director more questions. Unexpectedly, Wen Muye was even more tight-lipped than Zhang Yuanjun and refused to reveal more information about the crew.

Then, the reporter asked Zhang Yuanjun another unexpected question: "Did you know that Yang Mi's new film was also shot in Jinling?"

"Ah? Is she also filming in Jinling? I really don't know. What is she filming?" Zhang Yuanjun asked the reporter.

"'Baby' directed by Liu Jie." The reporter only knew the title of the film.

"Oh, I hope her filming goes well too." That was all Zhang Yuanjun could say.

After the opening ceremony, the crew went indoors and prepared to start work, and Liu Yifei also followed them into the indoor set.

Seeing her husband wearing a wig and putting on greasy middle-aged makeup, Liu Yifei found it a little hard to accept.

"This is not my husband." Liu Yifei complained to Wen Muye, "My husband used to be very handsome."

Wen Muye smiled and said, "This is your husband."

Zhang Yuanjun touched his belly, an unlit cigarette in his mouth, and a bunch of keys hanging around his waist rattled.

Liu Yifei couldn't help but laugh: "How slick! If a child saw this, they would definitely not recognize you."

Zhang Yuanjun said: "When I was gaining weight, it was really comfortable to eat and drink whatever I wanted."

Liu Yifei laughed and said, "You know I can't eat it but you still try to make me hungry."

As he was talking, the set was set up and Zhang Yuanjun entered to start work.

Liu Yifei sat next to Wen Muye on the set and watched the monitor together.

Wen Muye said: "Lu Yong was 32 years old when he sold medicine, and Yuanjun is exactly 32 years old this year. Everything is so suitable."

Liu Yifei said, "After the filming, you have to give me a cool and handsome husband."

Wen Muye smiled and said, "I promise to pay it back, I promise to pay it back. But you see," Wen Muye pointed at the screen and said, "Zhang Yuanjun, who has become more sophisticated, has become even better in acting."

Wen Muye had shot a feature film before, or to be more precise, a unit of a feature film, in which he collaborated with Yang Mi and Zheng Kaiyuan. The more than two months in Prague were too torturous for him.

Firstly, they were newbies on their way, so things were a bit bumpy and not going smoothly; secondly, the acting skills of the two protagonists were not very good, which did not meet Wen Muye's requirements for actors, making the filming particularly difficult.

But now it is very different when working with Zhang Yuanjun. He can make any request to Zhang Yuanjun in terms of performance and has no worries that Zhang Yuanjun will not be able to do it.

Liu Yifei stayed on the set of "Dying to Survive" for half a day, and when it was almost noon, she said she wanted to go back.

"I won't eat the crew meals. My family has four dishes and a soup for every meal. I won't eat bran here."

Zhang Yuanjun was dissatisfied: "You go home and eat four dishes and a soup, but you leave me here to eat bran and vegetables?"

Liu Yifei refused to pay: "You are paid by the crew, isn't it normal for you to have to eat coarse food?" Then she left.

Wen Muye also comforted him: "Don't listen to her nonsense, our crew meals are delicious. Come, bring Teacher Zhang's meal up, eat quickly and then shoot, we haven't shot a single shot this morning." (End of this chapter)
