China Entertainment's Standout

Chapter 516: What’s your level? Comparing with Zhou Yutang?
"You know so much."

Liu Shishi nodded suddenly, with a look of confusion on his face.

As the big screen on the stage went black, the audience quickly fell silent.

It starts with a background introduction to the movie.

Xiangjiang is a place with simple folk customs.

More than 600 people disappear without reason every year.

It was found that many of these missing persons had their body parts removed by a transnational organization that trafficked in human parts.

This organization has been mentioned in the plot of "The Lonely Agent", and even in the background introduction of the movie "Slaying the Wolf 2", reports of Teacher Fan's murder appeared in the flash of news footage.

Many of the audience at the scene were fans of Zhou Yutang's movies. Soon some people discovered this detailed easter egg and started talking in low voices.

"Fan Binbin was harmed by this organization..."

Barbecue Fen's eyes were soft, and Xie Nan also glared at Wu Jing.

In the final battle at the criminal group headquarters, the warden in a white suit descended the escalator, looking indescribably elegant and carefree.

Chen Zhijie was tortured until he became unconscious. There was originally a waterboarding scene, but Zhou Yutang felt it was too cruel and cruel, so Chen Musheng had it cut out during editing.

With murderous intent, fight to the end.

Later, when I joined the team and filmed action scenes, Director Chen Musheng was very demanding. He wanted the action to be realistic and exciting. As a result, many accidents happened. Ligament injuries were common. I was afraid that my wife would be worried, so I didn’t dare to let her come to visit the team... …”

Host Xie Nan pointed the microphone at Zhang Jing and said with a smile: "Congratulations Zhang Jing, I think through watching the movie just now, everyone can feel that you have created a very charming character. I am very curious. When you How did you decide to take on this drama? What special feelings did you have during the filming process? Can you share it with everyone? ”

Many spectators at the scene were amazed.

Just this moment.

Hormones explode.

Just looking at the reaction of the audience, they actually felt sorry for a villain. Regardless of the final box office performance of this movie, the role of the suit thug warden can definitely be regarded as a success.

The suit is straight, the back is neatly combed, a cigar is held in his mouth, and he is pulling his tie slowly.

The first 20 minutes of the movie can't be called amazing, but it can be considered relaxing.

During the conversation between Simon Yam and Wu Jing, he also mentioned Zhou Yutang's destruction of Zhong Wen and Zhong Wu Flour Group in "The Lonely Agent".

Barbecued pork Fen listened to the exclamations from the audience around her and stared at her husband without turning her eyes.
"What are you looking at?"

The camera focused on Zhang Jing.

The scene shifts to a prison in Tyrande.

Today's Zhang Jing is also dressed like the suit thug in the film, but his behavior is undoubtedly much more elegant: "Actually, when Director Zhou asked me to act in this drama, I didn't even read the script and agreed directly.

Men, it seems, are always reporting good things but not bad things.

The protagonist's cold cell is in sharp contrast to the luxurious warden's office, which also brings a strong visual impact to the audience.

Barbecued Pork Fen narrowed her eyes and smiled: "Hubby, I didn't even notice that you are so handsome."

The applause was so overwhelming that it seemed like it was going to break through the dome.

The melodious music accompanying the movie gradually soothes the audience's spirit.

The real kung fu of punching to the flesh, hard bridge and hard horse, is very enjoyable to watch.

This is the stage for thugs in suits. Wushuang opens and violently suppresses the prison unrest.

Suddenly.

Zhou Yutang heard the suppressed exclamations of many female audience members, and a faint smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.

The effect is more than good.

"There are still quite a lot of feelings."

Taking a deep breath, two white dragons spurted out from his nostrils, his face full of defiance.

"..."

But behind this elegance, there is a violence like a beast.

Zhang Jing was a little puzzled: "Is there something on my face?"

"Wu Jing was like this too. When filming a fight scene, he even injured his bones and was admitted to the hospital. Director Zhou happened to be in Xiangjiang on a schedule at that time, and he came to visit..."

then.

In the airport battle, undercover Sir Chen Zhijie, played by Wu Jing, fell into the hands of a criminal group.

Next.

In the end, the little girl is saved, the villain Liang Liang, and justice defeats evil.

Audiences who have watched it will naturally smile knowingly, and those who have not watched it will not hinder their understanding of the plot. They are just a little curious, which in turn arouses their interest in watching the movie.

The story is tense and exciting throughout.

As the plot progresses, Tony Jia’s fierce Muay Thai, Wu Jingjiao’s bodybuilding...

Zhang Jing shook his head helplessly: "It was all Director Zhou's idea, and now it seems that the effect is good."

"Director Chen, what do you want to say?"

"I have collaborated with Yu Tang several times."

Chen Musheng's speech was very direct: "I want to say that he is really the most amazing genius I have ever seen. He wrote the script of "The Lonely Agent", including "Slaying the Wolf 2", he is also the producer, and the role of Zhang Jing was created by him." The styling, movements, and various details were all his ideas, and the later editing also gave me a lot of help.”

"Of course, I would also like to thank Zhang Jing, Wu Jing, and Tony Jaa for their wonderful performances, as well as the rest of the action coaching team. It was not easy to film this movie, and everyone worked hard."

In addition to Wu Jing and Zhang Jing, the entire action direction team also includes Li Zhongzhi, winner of the Golden Horse Award for Best Action Design.

It can be said to be the top team in the circle. Plus the entire crew.

It is the dedication of these people that created the thrilling visual effects of this movie.

When Zhou Yutang took some time off from her busy schedule to spend time with Liu Shishi, the movie reviews and discussions on the Internet were already fresh.

"Compared to the first Sha Po Lang, the fighting scenes are not weaker at all, and overall, it even looks more enjoyable."

"The foreshadowing at the beginning is a bit interesting, as it seems to be related to the plot of "The Lonely Agent", but starting from the prison part, when the warden appears, the movie is really exciting. I have to say that Zhang Jing's character is one of the most handsome. "

"What a wonderful movie. I finally get to eat something good."

"Many people have underestimated director Chen Musheng. He is definitely the most noteworthy director in Hong Kong. He has collaborated with Zhou Yutang on several films, all of which have achieved high box office results!"

"The role of the suit thug is so stylish. I'm really afraid that Zhang Jing will beat Wu Jing to death."

"This movie can be said to have the highest level of fighting scenes in Chinese-language films, especially the prison riot and the warden's long-shot fighting scene, which was a complete blast!"

In the summer season when the two films are competing against each other, this hearty and enjoyable action film seems to have given a shot in the arm to the entire film market.

Film critics, forums, and post bars all received unanimous praise.

"Tiny Times" has been hyped like crazy, and the promotion of "Slaying the Wolf 2" has also been fully launched, and the momentum is not weak at all. It is just a commercial movie, and it will ultimately rely on the box office to speak for itself.

Countless pairs of eyes in the industry are staring at the box office performance of "Slaying the Wolf 2".

Zhou Yutang was fully charged at Shi Shi and returned to the crew to start filming.

Taking advantage of the crew's break, Ni Ni came over to report with some excitement: "Boss, the news from Sister Shuang is that on the first day of release, "Slaying the Wolf 2", including the midnight screening, won the film in a single day 7850 million box office!”

"Congratulations to Director Zhou on the box office success."

Everyone in the crew congratulated.

"Boss, it's higher than "Tiny Times"!"

Reba's cheerful voice made Zhou Yutang feel happy.

If Guo Xiaosi refuses to accept it, then beat him until he does.

"How can it be!?"

Guo Xiaosi looked at the box office data sent by his studio staff, and his expression changed from a daze, to stiffness, to shock.

As if he couldn't believe it, he looked over the box office data several times, and finally his expression became dull.

Take a look at this summer’s schedule.

Number one in the number of films scheduled!

Number one in attendance!

No. 1 at the box office in a single day!

No. 1 in word-of-mouth reviews!

Guo Xiaosi's body, as thin as a monkey, was almost completely sunken into the large leather seats. After a long time to recover, he asked his handsome male assistant: "What did Yang Mi say, can I participate in the movie roadshow promotion?"

"Director Guo, there is a drama over in Jiangdong. Yang Mi's schedule is very tight and she really can't make it."

"She is so unprofessional!"

Guo Xiaosi slapped the table, thinking of the intimate photo Yang Mi and Zhou Yutang had posted not long ago, and swallowed back his anger.

Forget it, he didn’t dare to move around with Zhou Yutang’s people, so he immediately called Zhang Zhao of LeTV Pictures:
"Mr. Zhang, how come our film schedule is so low?"

"no way."

Zhang Zhao sighed: "The theaters are very realistic. Zhou Yutang must have informed the theaters in advance. "Slaying the Wolf 2" received 43% of the film schedule on the first day of its release, and it will definitely be higher in the future. "

Since the release of "Tianji·Fuchun Mountain Residence", the total box office has been 2.85 million, and the single-day box office has dropped to more than . It has been nailed to the pillar of shame of bad movies.

After "Tiny Times" fiercely harvested fans and box office in the first few days, its reputation and attendance plummeted. Although there were still fans who were supporting it, the single-day box office data dropped to a disgraceful level.

"Then can we spend money to do public relations work for the theaters?" Guo Xiaosi frowned.

"."

Zhang Zhao answered with silence.

He really wanted to say, what's your level, and what's Zhou Yutang's level?
People's hands and eyes can reach the sky.

Including China Film Han Sanping, Wanda Ye Ning, Shanghai Wu Heru
The leading theater chains in China are either relevant stakeholders or have close relationships with Zhou Yutang.

The national-level running man variety show specially produced a special episode of "Slaying the Wolf 2" in conjunction with the movie. When I was a kid, I had to queue up to get in!
What do you use to fight him?

But thinking that everyone is now friends, he still can't say too harsh words. Zhang Zhao changed to a tactful way: "Director Guo, this is not realistic. The theaters only look at who can make them more money. Our film Some movies have already made money."

Zhang Zhao, who once helped Wang Changtian make Enlight Pictures bigger, understands a truth deeply.

The pie in the movie market is so big, and the competition among movies released at the same time is extremely cruel.

Judging from the movie's reputation and attendance, as long as "Slaying the Wolf 2" can be stable, the film schedule of "Tiny Times" will undoubtedly be further compressed.

Guo Xiaosi and Zhang Zhao are paying attention to the box office trend of "Slaying the Wolf 2".

Countless pairs of eyes in the circle are also staring at the box office data.

On the second day after the release of "Slaying the Wolf 2", the box office revenue was 7538 million, and the box office exceeded 1.5 million in two days.

On the third day, the total box office had reached 2.33 million.

A great success in the summer season.

At this moment, the film and television industry has completely exploded.
