China Entertainment’s rescue plan is hard to come by

Chapter 518 The Bullet Heroine and the Voice of Doubt [-in-]

"The movie "The Founding of the People's Republic of China" has created many firsts in the history of Chinese-language films."

"In the history of Chinese-language films, the same film has the most celebrities and powerful actors, no one, more than 170 of them."

"The first-day box office performance of a Chinese-language film was the highest, breaking the 3000 million RMB first-day box office record just set by "The Intouchables" and reaching a new high of 3200 million."

"It is also the film with the most copies released on the first day in the history of Chinese-language films, reaching 1860 copies, covering more than % of the country."

"The Founding of the People's Republic of China" premiered on Friday and began nationwide screenings at midnight that night. On Saturday and Sunday, plus Monday and Tuesday morning, in three and a half days, the box office exceeded the 100 million yuan mark. It has also become the movie with the most screenings, the longest viewing time, and the largest number of comments in the country during the same period.

Can it be less? This is simply the national team.

All government and enterprise units responded to the call and received education in the spirit of patriotism.

At the same time, the entire cast of leading actors, led by Han Sanping himself, was divided into three groups and ran across the country to promote the show. More than 170 celebrities were like playing relay, with three or five people working together to pass the ball down one stop at a time.

Sun Yi and Liu Yifei were no exception. They participated in an interview for a movie report in the capital.

Host: "Yifei, why do you want to participate in this movie?"

"Of course it is to give a birthday gift to the motherland."

The host asked again: "Then what do you think is the success of this movie?"

"First of all, I think it is natural for this movie to achieve such results, because all of us actors have made a lot of preparations in advance to shoot this movie."

"When Mr. Jiang Wen came to the set, he was holding half a foot high of materials, all of which were information about the characters in his play."

Liu Yifei talked eloquently in front of the camera. In order to enhance the effect, she also vividly gestured to the audience how high half a foot was.

"I was shocked at the time. Teacher Jiang Wen also designed the costume, epaulettes, buttons, badges, and related accessories for his own character, restoring the historical figure to the maximum extent."

"Sun Yi didn't believe it at first. Oh, yes, he is one of the assistant directors of this movie. He was responsible for the scene with Teacher Jiang Wen." Liu Yifei took the microphone and pointed to Sun beside her. Yi smiled and said to the host:

"He was also very serious about filming, and then the two of them started falling out on the set."

The host asked with great interest: "Who won in the end?"

Liu Yifei looked at Sun Yi mysteriously and smiled without saying a word.

You've already started talking, but now you're embarrassed to say it?

Besides, you have no choice but to mention this bitch. At the premiere the day before yesterday, I almost had to practice with him on the spot.

There is no good intention, and I want to find my wife as the heroine, and then touch her breasts. Then the hero must be me.

Fortunately, it was a misunderstanding. Lao Jiang didn't mean to find Liu Yifei to play the female lead at all. His target was Zhou Xun, a subsidiary of Starry Sky.

Originally, Jiang Wen didn't have high requirements for the heroine, and even wanted his own wife to take the role, but he didn't expect that the thief who was playing tricks actually tricked Ge You and Zhou Runfa into coming.

Now it's good, the cast of male actors is unprecedentedly strong, but the female lead is not good. We must find someone who matches her. Whether it is acting skills or celebrity status, there must be no difference.

Not to mention Gonghuang and Manshen, the last time they have to be at the fourth level of double ice is the fourth level. No, now it is the fourth level of double ice and Yifei.

Of course, although Liu Yifei is qualified in all aspects, her age and qualifications are still far behind those of the previous ones, and her acting skills are still a bit behind.

Mainly because of her age, she is too young, and no matter how hard she plays, she will never be able to portray the heroine's charm that still exists.

Jiang Wen originally wanted to work for Zhang Manyu, but was declined due to schedule. When he needed investment, he thought of Zhouxun, a company under Star Sky.

Zhou Xun is not tall, with a five-foot figure, but he has breasts but no breasts, and he has butt butt, but the vixen Xiao Wei in "Painted Skin" actually played the role vividly, which can be called a classic among classics.

Come to think of it, a brothel girl who still has charm and deep scheming is no problem. What's more, Zhou Xun has recently become popular all over the country with her "The Legend of Zhen Huan".

In addition, we still need investment from Xingkong, so we have to give him some face no matter what.

After this calculation, Zhou Xun is very suitable for Jiang Wen's choice of heroine.

However, he had an impromptu idea and suddenly remembered it, just when Liu Yifei finished singing "Wish", he blurted out the question directly, causing Sun Yi to misunderstand.

Fortunately, after the premiere that day, the two had a deep chat and finally understood their respective purposes.

Sun Yi immediately contacted Zhou Xun. This sister was also looking forward to cooperating with director Jiang Wen, so she settled on the cooperation intention that night.

Thinking of this misunderstanding, Sun Yi shook his head and smiled bitterly, quite self-deprecating, and almost made an mistake.

His thoughts instantly changed, and he realized that he was still at the show. Looking at the inquiring eyes of the audience, he felt a little more helpless. He gave Xiao Nizi a meaningful look, took the microphone from her hand, and organized a little. After a moment of voice, he admitted generously:

"In the end, I lost. Teacher Jiang Wen really worked hard. This was something I didn't consider beforehand. As for this character and how to shoot it, it was up to him. I completely listened to him, but from the results Let’s see, Teacher Jiang Wen is still awesome.”

Liu Yifei looked at Sun Yi and couldn't tell his position at all. She pursed her lips and snickered on the spot.

The audience in the audience liked this scene of falling in love, killing each other, and exposing each other's background. While laughing, they also burst into kind applause.

"As for Director Sun Yi, let me ask you, you have gone through the entire filming process of this movie. What thoughts can you share with everyone?"

What do you think? I went through all the shooting!

I didn't stay for more than half a month in total, and was responsible for less than ten shots in total.

Sun Yi complained in his heart, but there was nothing he could do about it. This is how it is on a show. You definitely can’t tell the truth. What the program team wants is not the truth, but the popularity of the star director. What the crew wants is the publicity of the movie and the audience. All the gentlemen want is melons. As long as they have melons, as long as they can be eaten.

"Well, in addition to Teacher Jiang Wen, other actors have also put in a lot of effort. For example, Teacher Zhang Guoli, in order to play the role of Jiang Zhiqing, he controlled his weight and lost a full 20 pounds."

"The entire film's directing team, including the screenwriters, in order to keep it as close to history as possible, have done enough research and found information to fill an archive room."

"In order to strive for excellence, we made several selections from the film material with a total duration of nearly 4 hours, and finally edited a story of more than minutes, just to bring the best to the audience."

Sun Yi shared as many behind-the-scenes stories as possible, and the audience in the audience also expressed emotion from time to time.

At this time, the host held an information sheet and turned the topic to Liu Yifei again.

"Yifei, do you know that the theme song "Ruishi" you sang is very popular?"

Liu Yifei blinked and was embarrassed to speak.

The host raised the information in his hand to the camera, "According to the latest statistics, your song has topped the Baidu music search list in just three days. Do you want to share something with the audience here?"

"Well, thank you very much for your love of this song. I hope we can remember the struggle history of the older generation of revolutionaries and make this prosperous age always as they wish." Bang bang bang bang.

"Yifei, please take this opportunity to sing live for everyone."

"Mmmmm~"

With the intense publicity of "The Founding of the People's Republic of China", the theme song "As You Wish" also went out of the circle, and even seemed to be a latecomer, becoming a patriotic song that became popular all over the Internet in later generations.

Different from the songs in Liu Yifei's first two albums, taking advantage of the National Day period, the 60th anniversary of the motherland, and "The Founding of the People's Republic of China", a movie with the main theme that is suitable for the occasion and can no longer be used for the occasion, it can be a killing of all ages, young and old. Suitable for everyone, even adults feel more.

In just three days, it started to dominate the charts on major music websites and video websites. The music video of that difficult period of history adapted by various netizens made all netizens cry.

The lyrics express the inseparable emotional bonds in the blood of the Chinese people. Through Liu Yifei's affectionate interpretation, it tells the legacy of the older generation of revolutionaries and sings the feelings of family and country conveyed in the movie into the hearts of countless Chinese people.

The short sentence "This prosperous age is as you wish" resonated with thousands of netizens and inspired the patriotic feelings engraved in the blood.

Music gives people power. At this time, an excellent patriotic inspirational song is exactly what it means.

Han Sanping was also happy with this, and even devoted a lot of promotional resources to this song, which served the purpose of promoting the movie.

Beijing, Huayi.

There was a "pop" sound.

Wang Zhonglei threw a media report on his elder brother's desk. They were all reports from major media on "The Founding of the People's Republic of China", and many of them mentioned the theme song "Ruishi" and Liu Yifei.

"Brother, look at the flattery of these media. Damn it, even the money I gave them didn't have this effect."

After Wang Zhonglei finished speaking, he sat angrily on the boss's chair, lit a cigarette, and took a long drag.

Wang Zhongjun didn't even look at the information. He was twirling the small-leaf red sandalwood bracelet in his hand. He lowered his head and said in a low voice: "This is "The Founding of the People's Republic of China", the most important project of China Film in recent years. Do you still want to follow this one?" Compare?"

Wang Zhonglei leaned forward and pressed his chest against the edge of the table. He clicked on some reports with his fingers holding a cigarette and said loudly:

"Look at these copies, they are all promoting Sun Yi and Liu Yifei, as well as some of her songs. I wonder why they are so good. I think Old Han is also confused. He used China Film's promotional resources to her We don’t have this kind of treatment for you.”

By the way, Wang Zhonglei was also very angry. He was always unhappy with Liu Yifei. He wasted so much resources just to poach her, but he didn't expect that he was tricked in the end.

In desperation, he resorted to all kinds of measures to smear and block him. In the end, Sun Yi showed up and made him return without success. Not only did he and his company get exposed a lot of dirty stuff.

Huayi has lost face in this wave.

Originally he tolerated the situation after seeing the situation clearly, but recently he took advantage of following the trend and produced the movie "The Listener" two years in advance. Not only did he disgust Sun Yi, but he also made a small profit. In addition, it was just a short time before the company went public. In less than a month, all progress has been completed. Based on the current news, a group of capital tycoons are paying attention to Huayi, the first mainland film and television stock, and the estimated opening price has risen again and again. He couldn't help but float up again.

Thinking of this past incident, I started to think about regaining my place.

Wang Zhongjun gently placed the small-leaf red sandalwood in a brocade box on the table, then slowly took off his gloves and sighed: "You are just impulsive."

After saying that, he turned on the computer and pushed the screen gently, "See for yourself."

Wang Zhongjun didn't know why, but he still leaned over and took a look.

Wang Zhongjun has no impression of a very unknown film and television forum website. The most talked about website is the recently popular "The Founding of the People's Republic of China".

Wang Zhongjun frowned and clicked.

""The Founding of the People's Republic of China". Nationality"

The more he looked at it, the brighter his eyes became, and the corners of his mouth couldn't help but grin.

"Brother, this is you"

Wang Zhongjun immediately raised his head, his eyes turned cold.

"Don't talk nonsense, what does it have to do with me? This is "The Founding of the People's Republic of China", the most important project of China Film Group. We at Huayi also support it, but we can't control what netizens think."

Wang Zhongjun nodded repeatedly with a smile on his face.

"Yes, yes, it had nothing to do with us in the first place. Nowadays, netizens are so resourceful and can find out anything. Isn't that what I did last time?"

"Well, we are not involved in how this matter develops. Let everything take its course. The most important thing now is to go public. You can run around with those big bosses." After speaking, Wang Zhongjun paused and emphasized:

"Remember, don't just focus on the boss himself. You're not of a high enough level to get along. The actual people in charge below also need to build a good relationship with them. Eat, have fun, and take them to experience our film and television industry. Then we'll start If the price can go up by one dollar, it’s a deal worth hundreds or even tens of millions.”

Wang Zhonglei slapped his chest hard, "Brother, don't worry, I understand."

As time goes by, the box office of "The Founding of a Republic" is still rising steadily, and its reputation is not bad. At least the vast majority of movie fans are satisfied with the film, but there are also voices of doubt.

"The Founding of the People's Republic of China", directed by Han Sanping, the head of China Film Group, can be said to have the strongest star cast in Chinese-language history. However, as a gift film for the 60th anniversary of the founding of the People's Republic of China, and with the theme of commemorating the founding of the Republic, the use of 21 non-Chinese actors to play the main roles raises questions.

“You’ve even changed your nationality, how can you still be full of patriotic enthusiasm?”

At first, this comment was still very small, but with the full promotion of the movie, this comment began to become noisy, and gradually formed a hot discussion, until a so-called list of non-Chinese nationals came out from nowhere, and the public opinion on the Internet Exploded instantly.

The crew of "The Founding of the People's Republic of China" also started emergency public relations and explained this question to the audience during the publicity road show.

Wu Junmei, who plays Soong Meiling, explained to reporters:

"From my personal point of view, to use the most popular analogy, it is like a mother giving birth to many daughters. Some daughters are married off, and some are still with her. Why do you say that married daughters are not? Do you love this mom?"

In her view, passport and nationality are just symbols. "I was Chinese when I was born, I am Chinese now, and I will still be Chinese until I die. This will not change with my nationality."

The crew also responded through official channels. Legally speaking, citizens' choice of nationality is entirely voluntary, which is a basic right of citizens.

But netizens don't buy it. They often have the simplest feelings and simply think that if you are not Chinese, it doesn't matter whether you are patriotic or not.

Furthermore, for a film with a special theme to commemorate the founding of the country, will there be no Chinese actors and it must be played by foreign actors?

It's hard to say who is right or wrong on this issue, but at this juncture of this special day, the emotions of the majority of netizens are understandable.

Patriotism is sometimes a double-edged sword. On the one hand, it improves national self-confidence, but if it is not properly channeled, it may turn into nationalism.

Everyone needs a channel to vent, and unfortunately, due to the heavy promotion of the movie and the popularity of the song "Wish", the fairy sister Liu Yifei happened to be at the forefront of this trend.
