China Entertainment: Return to 2007

Chapter 173 "Monster Hunting" VS "Three Guns"

December 11th,

It was just an ordinary day,

But with the joint release of "Monster Hunt" and "Three Guns", this ordinary day is no longer ordinary in an instant.

Imperial Capital, Wanda Cinema, early morning.

Braving the cold wind and under the warm winter sun,

Thousands of people gathered outside the movie theater and talked a lot.

The vast majority of these thousands of people are loyal fans and fans of Guoshi, Xiao Shenyang, Uncle Benshan and others.

The rest are entertainment reporters and major film critics.

They gathered here early in the morning, for no other reason than to attend the premiere of "Three Guns".

Since the Olympics, the reputation of the national division has been well-known at home and abroad. As the first movie to be released after the Olympics, "Three Guns" has naturally attracted much attention.

"Hey, do you think Xu Ge is better than a national master?"

"Tch, what are you thinking about? This is the national master!

"Hero", "House of Flying Daggers", "The Golden Armor", which movie is not the box office champion of domestic movies? !

For a rising star like Xu Ge, he is still far from being able to compete with the national master. "

"This is not necessarily true. Since Xu Ge's debut, the TV series, web series, movies, and even the projects he has invested in have all become hits!

They say they beat the old master to death with random punches. What if he can win this time? "

"You also said that this is just in case. I admit that Xu Ge is very powerful. He is definitely 10,000 times better than mediocre people like us.

But he wants to compete with the national master, but he is still too young! "

"I think so. "Three Guns" is the first movie after the National Division Olympics. With the blessing of the Olympics, even if this movie is a piece of cake, the box office will definitely soar!"

"But then again, the lineup of this "Three Guns" is really inferior to Guoshi's previous movies by several levels.

Separate lines are like mountains. Although Xiao Shenyang and Uncle Benshan are famous, they are just sketch actors.

Sun Honglei and Runni are both TV stars.

Can they make a movie? "

"With the National Master here, it doesn't matter whether the protagonist is a sketch actor or a TV drama actor, it doesn't matter!

Didn’t you hear Zhang Weiping say that as long as Zhang Yimou is around, nothing will be a problem, and theaters will have to kneel at his feet and beg for his movie to be released? "

"I hope that "Three Guns" can give us Daxia people a voice and regain the box office championship occupied by "2012"!"

"It will definitely work! Lao Mouzi's level is still quite high. With him, not to mention repeating the box office miracle of "Hero",

The box office exceeded 4.6 million, which should be a big deal. "

"Yes, I have been dissatisfied with these Hollywood blockbusters for a long time. Didn't they just make a few popcorn movies by throwing money at special effects? How can they be used so well?

This time, "Three Guns" will take action, and they will definitely be able to avenge the past! "

"..."

The crowd was talking a lot. Regarding this dispute between Xu and Zhang, almost 90% of the people believed that the National Teachers Association had won a complete victory.

As for Xu Ge, although he has supporters, he is alone and far from the opponent of the national division.

nine in the morning,

Amidst the cheerful music, Guoshi appeared outside the cinema with the main creators of "Three Guns".

For a moment, fans screamed.

"Little Shenyang! Little Shenyang!! Little Shenyang!!!"

"little Shenyang!!"

"..."

How popular is Xiaoshenyang now?

Since appearing on the Spring Festival Gala last year, under the guidance of Uncle Benshan, he became famous overnight.

For a whole year, he was surrounded by flowers and applause all the time.

Because he was so popular, he was even spotted by the national master and appointed as the male protagonist of "Three Guns".

Today, when "Three Guns" is released, Xiao Shenyang is even more prosperous due to the identity of the male protagonist.

Not only are movie offers coming to him like snowflakes, but also major programs are vying to send him invitations, not to mention advertisements.

Xiao Shenyang can’t even remember how many commercials he has filmed this year.

He even got angry because he was too busy and got up too early, and his temper was as bad as that of Thunder God.

At this time, facing the flowers and applause, Xiao Shenyang couldn't help but feel proud.

After following Uncle Benshan for many years, and now that he has made his mark, he is of course indescribably happy.

But when I turned around, I saw Uncle Benshan’s smiling face even brighter.

For a moment, Xiao Shenyang's face couldn't help but twitch.

Now everyone says that he is Uncle Benshan’s chief disciple and the top brother of Benshan Media.

But who can know? He is a top-tier superstar, but his net worth is still less than ten million? !

It's not that he didn't make any money, it's that 90% of the money he made was handed over to Uncle Benshan.

That's right, it's the legendary 91%.

According to the contract signed,

Every time Xiao Shenyang earns 1 million, he must hand over 900 million to Uncle Benshan, and he can only get a mere million.

In the past, before Xiao Shenyang became famous, he was content if he had food to eat.

But now, seeing that almost all of the money he had worked so hard to earn went into Uncle Benshan’s pocket,

How could he just give up?

Like Cao Moujin in the future, he had already thought about changing jobs and becoming self-reliant.

"Hmph, when "Three Guns" tops the box office in the Mainland, my little Shenyang will definitely soar into the sky and become an international superstar!"

Suppressing all the dissatisfaction in his heart for the time being, little Shenyang smiled and followed Zhang Guoshi, Zhang Weiping, and Uncle Benshan onto the stage.

"Wow! It's Gong Li!"

"Zhang Ziyi!!"

"Li Lianjie!!!"

Not long after the creator of Three Guns came on stage, another group of superstars walked in outside the gate.

The leader is Gong Li, who is constantly fighting with Zhang Guoshi, as well as the International Chapter, which he holds a lot of fame for, and the Kung Fu Emperor who comes to support him in friendship.

As we all know, the strength of the director and production company can best be seen by how many stars come to the premiere of a movie.

Seeing these three people coming, the atmosphere in the audience couldn't help but reach a new height.

see,

On the podium, Zhang Guoshi immediately smiled calmly and said: "Thank you Li Lianlian, Gong Li, Zhang Ziyi... and all the reporters, film critics, and loyal fans present for their strong support. Everyone traveled thousands of miles to attend the premiere of "Three Guns" screening ceremony,

On behalf of all the creative colleagues of "Three Guns", I would like to express my most sincere thanks to you! "

clap clap clap! ! !

"On this rare good day, "Three Guns" is about to be released,

Welcome everyone to enjoy this suspense comedy with us, which we worked hard to produce! "

clap clap clap! ! !

"Director Zhang, what are your expectations for the box office of "Three Guns"?"

Facing the reporter's question, Zhang Guoshi looked at Zhang Weiping next to him. Zhang Weiping immediately stood up with a smile and said loudly: "We have only one goal this time, and that is to break the box office record set by "2012" and compete for domestic films. Tone!"    Pah, pah, pah! ! !

"Excuse me, Mr. Zhang, what do you think of "Monster Hunt", which was released with you guys? What do you think its box office will be?"

"What do you think? Of course, just sit and watch!" Zhang Weiping laughed and changed his tone: "I don't know what the box office will be, but I know one thing, the box office of "Three Guns" will definitely crush it by at least 100 million. !

In front of "Three Guns", it is nothing! "

boom! ! !

Hearing Zhang Weiping dissing "Monster Hunt" so blatantly, all the reporters in the audience became excited for a moment.

Seizing the opportunity, reporters continued to flock to Zhang Weiping, hoping that he would say more harsh words.

Is Zhang Weiping a fool? The answer is of course no!

But he acted like a fool at this time. Faced with the reporter's instigation and the big hole dug, he jumped in with a plop without caring.

"Excuse me, Mr. Zhang, do you really think "Monster Hunting" is vulnerable? Doesn't Xu Ge even have the qualifications to face off against Zhang Guoshi?"

"Nonsense! How old is Xu Ge? How old is Yimou? He is just a young boy, how can he compare with my Yimou?!"

"Mr. Zhang, what if the box office of "Monster Hunt" is higher than that of "Three Guns"?"

"If "Three Guns" can't beat "Monster Hunt" at the box office, then I'll stand on my head and wash my hair!"

"Mr. Zhang, are you serious about what you say? Can I think that in your mind, Xu Ge and "Monster Hunt" are pure garbage, and you are not worthy of carrying shoes for "Three Guns"?"

"It doesn't matter, you can write whatever you want!"

Facing the reporters' frenzied interviews, Zhang Weiping refused to accept anyone who came. Following their wishes, he tried his best to criticize Xu Ge and "Monster Hunting", showing off his arrogant and domineering appearance.

In an instant, all the reporters were excited!

After the interview session, Zhang Guoshi officially announced the start of the movie.

At this time,

When I came back to my senses, almost no reporters watched the movie seriously.

They were busy making phone calls and typing on computers.

They all wanted to spread Zhang Weiping's arrogant words to the whole of Daxia as soon as possible.

....................................

Almost at the same time, the Shanghai Theater Theater

The situation at this time was similar to that in the Imperial Capital.

Under the spotlight, Xu Ge led Ni Ni, Chen Xiao, Jiang Wu and other main creators of "Monster Hunt" to the stage.

Then, Xu Ge's support group arrived.

The leaders are Jiang Wen, Uncle Ge and Fa Ge.

Seeing these three people, the whole audience cheered.

Followed closely are Deng Chao, Sun Li and his wife, Hu Ge, Yuan Hong and other sugar star stars, as well as Xu Ge's direct descendants such as Bai Ke, Liu Dunzimo and Zhao Liying.

Finally, just when everyone thought that was all, Liu Shishi and Yang Mi came hand in hand,

The two beauties dressed up for the trip and walked hand in hand into the theater very intimately.

"Wow! Ruoxi is so beautiful!"

"Weiwei is so beautiful!"

"They are so elegant!"

As the most famous new film and television star in China, the appearance of Liu Shishi and Yang Mi set off the atmosphere in the audience.

Especially when they walked onto the stage and stood in a row with Ni Ni smiling,

In an instant, cheers continued.

"Good guy, how did Xu Ge do it? Three women share one husband? He is really awesome!"

"Oh my god, are my eyes right? Shouldn't Ni Ni and Liu Shishi Yang Mi be fighting to the death?

How come we became as close as sisters again in the blink of an eye? "

"Damn it! It's not enough for this damn Xu Ge to have our favorite Ni Ni, and he went to provoke Liu Shishi and Yang Mi. Thinking about it, he really feels worthless for our Ni Ni."

"The three sisters don't have any objections. What objections do you, an outsider, have?

It's better to wash up and go to bed early, don't be anxious if the emperor is not anxious and the eunuchs are. "

"..."

In the crowd, Zhao Liying watched all this with resentment.

At this moment, her heart really felt stinging.

I thought that with Xu Ge's greed, she would soon successfully take the final step and become another mistress of the Xu family.

But Zhao Liying really didn't expect that it was almost the New Year, and Xu Ge didn't take the initiative to contact her again.

In the past few months, Zhao Liying has been living like a year.

While filming "Wan Wan Journey to the West", I watched Xu Ge, Ni Ni, Liu Shishi and Yang Mi making news every day.

How could she not be depressed if she had a strong heart?

"I will definitely stand out. One day, I will stand beside Xu Ge and become the most dazzling existence beside him!"

Looking at the three Ni Ni girls sourly, Zhao Liying swore secretly in her heart.

Xu Ge glanced at Zhao Liying in the audience and showed her an apologetic expression.

What a pity, he really didn't forget Zhao Liying.

It's just that I'm really busy during this period.

After "Monster Hunt" was completed, he first accompanied Ni Ni to Paris for a tour.

After coming back, I was anxious to deal with the behind-the-scenes production of the movie.

Then there are a series of tedious things such as promotion, schedule setting, film scheduling, premiere... and so on.

The most important thing is that, whether intentionally or not, the three Ni Ni girls have stuck his time to death.

Xu Ge has someone beside him every night.

Xu Ge was really embarrassed to leave them alone and go eat the little cabbage Zhao Liying.

But after "Monster Hunt" is released, Xu Ge will find a chance to meet Zhao Liying no matter what.

Hell, half of her is already his. If he doesn't take her down completely, Xu Ge won't be able to sleep well during the New Year this year.

"Thank you to all my friends, all journalists and film critics, all viewers and fans,

Thank you for your strong support. With you, "Monster Hunt" will be a great success! "

clap clap clap! ! !

On the stage, Xu Ge skillfully thanked heaven and earth, the audience and God.

After chatting for a while, it was finally the question and answer session.

At this time, the entertainment reporters, who had been holding back their bad feelings, opened their mouths one after another.

"Director Xu! Just ten minutes ago, at the premiere of "Three Guns" far away in the imperial capital, Zhang Weiping publicly claimed that "Monster Hunt" was a garbage movie and he was not qualified to support "Three Guns". May I ask? What do you think of his speech?”

"Director Xu, Director Xu! Zhang Weiping said you are just a stupid boy, Zhang Yimou can crush you to death with one finger!

He also said that "Three Guns" will crush "Monster Hunt" at the box office. Is there anything you want to say to him? "

"Director Xu, Zhang Weiping and Zhang Yimou are so contemptuous and provocative to you, do you have any preparations for counterattack?

Or are you prepared to swallow your anger and let them trample your dignity under their feet? "

Hearing this unexpected and reasonable news, Xu Ge smiled without changing his face and said: "First of all, I want to make it clear that I personally think that if you want to evaluate a movie, you must at least wait until you have seen it in person. Leave a review."

After a pause, Xu Ge continued: "To express opinions casually like this on a movie that I have never even watched is the greatest insult to the movie! It is also extremely irresponsible to the film industry!"

Glancing around the media, Xu Ge said directly in their expectant eyes: "Tell Zhang Weiping for me that I look down on him!

"Monster Hunt" will definitely defeat "Three Guns", and its box office performance will be more than doubled!

If I can't do this, I will never direct cinema mics again! "

　Thank you to the boss Yongzhou City and 20220418101700570 for your monthly ticket support!
