China Entertainment started in 2004

Chapter 301: Excited
As Han Sanping's voice fell, the faces of some people in the projection room suddenly became unnatural.

This person obviously heard the previous discussion, but he just kept it quiet and waited for the current opportunity to directly confront the yin and yang.

In the face of this strange atmosphere, there is no way to refute it.

Seeing that no one responded, Han Sanping then added with a smile: "Wang Shu's movie is really good. I am very confident in "Terror Cruise"."

"At the beginning of the year, I think you also saw it. Many people inside and outside the industry were saying that our film industry is like the emperor's new clothes, and many of the works are basically all kinds of fried rice without changing the ingredients."

"This "Horror Cruise" shouldn't be a piece of cake, right?"

When a person next to him heard this, he quickly echoed: "Director Han is right, Wang Shu's "Terror Cruise" is indeed not a piece of cake."

"Even though this movie doesn't have big scenes, I still see some Hollywood flavor in it."

"Facts have proved that we in the mainland can also produce movies that are similar to Hollywood."

When Han Sanping heard this, he smiled and was noncommittal.

Han Sanping sang and echoed: "This is not only Hollywood-like, I personally think it is even better than the previous one."

Some people sighed silently in their hearts.

Moreover, only those with corresponding talents can draw on them to create corresponding works.

After saying that, he smiled a little and asked, "What do you think?"

"The emergence of this film may open a new chapter in our domestic commercial films."

Others had different thoughts at the moment, knowing that with the help of a divine touch, "Terror Cruise" would be amazing.

Han Sanping. Because of this movie, I have a long face.

The works directed by Wang Shu are all novel in the mainland film industry.

Soon, the news that "Terror Cruise" had been watched in the China Film Screening Room spread throughout half of Beijing.

Shit luck, so good.

No matter how high the box office of a movie invested by China Film Group is, their share of the money will never reach their hands.

"If nothing else happens, the movie should be released in May."

They are not complaining about high box office and sufficient profits, but they are complaining about various false reputations.

Some people couldn't help but have a wry smile on their faces when they thought of this.

Although "Terror Cruise" and "Groundhog Day" have a similar setting, Wang Shu may have borrowed ideas from "Groundhog Day" to create this "Terror Cruise".

When it comes to "Space Traveler", in addition to Wang Shu, Sun Li, Liu Yan, etc., Han Sanping will also be mentioned.

Immediately, he left first.

This echo sounded harsh to many people whose voices were different from Han Sanping's.

"The magic touch at the end of "Terror Cruise" is something that few Hollywood movies can achieve."

Where is the current talk that "Terror Cruise" directed by Wang Shu will open a new chapter for mainland commercial films?
It is clearly saying that Han Sanping will open a new chapter in mainland commercial films!

"Xiao Gang, "Cruise of Terror" directed by Wang Shu has been screened within China Film Group Corporation, and I heard that the effect was very good."

"Yes, a new era for our mainland film industry has arrived." Han Sanping saw that many people did not agree, and his interest was waning.

Han Sanping has a long face that they don't want to see, but Wang Shu, a 20-year-old young director, really has a lot of skills.

For this reason, they value fame more.

Because the box office split is not linked to them, but the false reputation is, naturally they value the false reputation more.

And Han Sanping, now not only sits on the top spot, but also has the reputation that many Chinese filmmakers want.

Therefore, they do not value these.

As a Chinese filmmaker, it is impossible to seek wealth, only fame.

Who would have thought that Han Sanping would actually find a piece of gold and help Wang Shu, an outlier.

For example, take the movie "Space Traveler".

There is no airtight wall in the world.

And this movie is another one that topped the box office in the mainland. When mentioning these, China Film Han Sanping will be mentioned.

The person with the same voice as Han Sanping immediately agreed: "Director Han is right, a new chapter for our mainland commercial films is here."

They gained various false reputations in Suanhan Sanping.

When thinking of this, many people feel a little sad.

Many people instantly understood what Han Sanping meant, and some people whose voices were different from Han Sanping's only had dry smiles on their faces.

But I have to admit that Wang Shu at least dared to learn from it.

In Huayi, Wang Zhongjun learned the news and made an appointment with Feng Xiaogang.

These words are not only saying that the movie "Terror Cruise" has opened a new chapter in commercial films, but also saying that Han Sanping's era has come, and China Film is about to open a new chapter.

Something new and groundbreaking has more false reputations.

In the future, when it comes to the first science fiction commercial film after the end of the film reform after the millennium, it will inevitably be inseparable from "Space Traveler".

"Assembly" directed by Feng Xiaogang has already been completed and is currently struggling to finalize its release date.

"Spider-Man 5 will be released in May, Pirates of the Caribbean 3 will be released in June, and Transformers will be released in July. No matter how good the effect is, if it dares to be released at the same time as Hollywood blockbusters, it will undoubtedly be courting death."

Feng Xiaogang sneered.

Wang Zhongjun nodded, and then analyzed: "So, the May release may be a smoke bomb, and the final release is likely to be at the end of the year."

Feng Xiaogang's face became serious when he heard this. "Terror Cruise" is scheduled to be released at the end of the year, which is not good news for him and Hua Yi.

The drama "Assembly" has been completed at the beginning of the year. It stands to reason that with Huayi's speed, it can be released in time for the Labor Day schedule. Even if it can't make it, it can be released between mid-to-late September and October.

It’s just that there are a lot of Hollywood blockbusters this year. Almost every month there is a Hollywood blockbuster released in the mainland.

The only traditional high-box office period left for mainland movies is the New Year's Eve, so Huayi has decided to schedule "Assembly" at the end of the year.

If "Terror Cruise" directed by Wang Shu is also released at the end of the year, it will be too big.

As far as he knows, the ones that are scheduled to be released by the end of this year include Chen Kexin's "The Call to Action", Li Eucalyptus's "Lust, Caution", Zhou Xingxing's "Yangtze River No. 7", "Call of Destiny" co-directed by Liu Yiwei and others, and more In addition to his "Assembly" and Wang Shu's "Terror Cruise", six films with narratives were rolled out in one schedule.

"What do you mean?" Feng Xiaogang asked immediately as he understood why Wang Zhongjun was looking for him.

Wang Zhongjun said with a smile: "If the movie "Terror Cruise" also appears on the New Year's Eve, then the competition will be cruel."

"So, should we pick up the file?"

Under normal circumstances, whether a movie should be released or withdrawn is basically decided by the producer and distributor, and there is no need to ask the director for his opinion.

But Feng Xiaogang is different. He has a very high status in Huayi. Wang Zhongjun came to discuss with him, which was a sign of his importance.

Hearing this, Feng Xiaogang was silent for a moment, thinking in his mind for a while, and then said, "Let's forget it. Even if we raise the schedule, there is no good schedule."

"Before December, there will be Hollywood blockbusters released."

"Competing with Hollywood blockbusters at the same time, the box office will be tough."

"But if it is at the end of the year, even if there are many domestic films released in the same period, we should be able to achieve good results."

He has confidence in "Assembly" and also wants to compete with Zhou Xingxing again.

As for "Terror Cruise", he thinks "Assembly" should be worthwhile.

When Wang Zhongjun heard what Feng Xiaogang said, he hesitated for a moment.

Before December, various Hollywood blockbusters were taking turns to appear, and the two sides were not in the same level, so it was indeed difficult to compete.

Although the New Year's Eve movies are very busy, at least they are all domestic films.

You know, there is no harm without comparison. Against the background of domestic films of the same period, "Assembly Number" may actually achieve a good box office.

Even if "Terror Cruise" is scheduled to be released at the end of the year, there is still a chance.

Wang Zhongjun pondered for a while, and then said: "Okay, we will keep the original schedule as expected."

Feng Xiaogang smiled. He would rather "Assembly" be co-produced with many domestic films at the end of the year than be on the same schedule as a Hollywood blockbuster.

In addition to the inevitable impact on the box office of the same period, audiences will also compare his movies with Hollywood blockbusters of the same period.

Not only will the box office be affected, but it will also be ridiculed and despised by the audience after comparing it to Hollywood movies.

This situation is detrimental to his reputation as a great director and will reduce his box office appeal in the future.

Emotionally and rationally, it cannot be on the same schedule as Hollywood blockbusters.

Furthermore, many of this year's imported films are sequels, and their box office appeal is predictable.

Neither Feng Xiaogang nor Wang Zhongjun are stubborn.

Even if it overlaps with a movie directed by Wang Shu, it doesn't want to compete with Hollywood blockbusters for the same time slot.

There is nothing wrong with this idea.

In the original timeline, "Spider-Man 3" relied on the audience cultivated by the first two films in the mainland market and achieved simultaneous global release, with the mainland box office exceeding 1.5 million.

"Harry Potter 5" pushed the box office of the series to over 1.4 million yuan in mainland China for the first time, exceeding million yuan.

"Pirates of the Caribbean 3" also created an impressive box office with Chow Yun-fat's performance in the film, reaching 1.25 million.

全年内地影院上映的票房前十的电影中有6部进口片，分别是《蜘蛛侠3》、《哈利波特5》、《加勒比海盗3》、《虎胆龙威4》这4部为续集片，以及《007皇家赌场》这一部“007”第21部系列片，与《变形金刚》。

In addition to the six films in the top ten, there are also "Disk 3", "Taxi 4", "Bean's Golden Week" and so on.

These imported films will all dominate mainland cinemas in 07.

You should know that from January to June 2007, 1 domestic films were reviewed and obtained public screening licenses by the State Film Administration.

而1~8月全国制作完成的国产影片达到246部，比2006年同期的191部增加55部。

The total number of feature films shot throughout the year will exceed 400.

Domestic annual film production ranks third in the world after India and the United States.

Under this general premise, imported films dominate the market, and only a few domestic films can maintain their reputation.

In 2007, there were more than 400 movies throughout the year, and 6 of the top ten box office movies were imported.

This data also shows from the side that Feng Xiaogang and Huayi made the right move to avoid the other side and schedule "Assembly" at the end of the year and the New Year.

Although there are many domestically produced films throughout the year, most of them are local films, while the foreign language films that can enter the mainland market are almost all of high quality.

Even if it is co-produced with many domestic films, it is better than competing with these sequels for the same time slot.

If it weren't for a sequel, or for a film like "Transformers," which had a lot of publicity, Feng Xiaogang and Hua Yi might have put "Assembly" on the schedule instead of selecting it for the end of the year and New Year.

However, the reality is that almost all imported films introduced are sequels.

This kind of movie has a saying that you can understand without even thinking about it.

When Feng Xiaogang heard Wang Zhongjun agreed, he suddenly felt worried and asked: "Is "Terror Cruise" really planned to be released by the end of the year?"

He thought that Wang Zhongjun had just said that "Terror Cruise" had received very good internal reviews from China Film Group, and he felt a little nervous.

"There is no definite news, but I personally think it should be released at the end of the year. After all, there are all kinds of imported blockbusters, and it is unwise to release it at the same time." Wang Zhongjun said.

When Feng Xiaogang heard what Wang Zhongjun said, he also felt that what he said was reasonable, and then suggested: "How about we find a way to provoke it?"

"Excited?" When Wang Zhongjun heard this, he didn't react for a while.

Feng Xiaogang said with a smile: "Wang Shu is young, and now he is being hailed as the pioneer of mainland science fiction commercial films. He is going to Cannes in May and may go to Venice later."

"As long as we find a way to stimulate him, we should be able to cause him to schedule "Terror Cruise" in May or June."

When Wang Zhongjun heard this, he instantly understood what Feng Xiaogang meant.

Wang Shu is a young man who loves face.

If there is a yin and yang, he would not dare to release "Terror Cruise" at the same time as the imported film, etc.
Wang Zhongjun chuckled and already had an idea in his mind.

He looked at Feng Xiaogang and said with a smile: "Start with the Internet first and use public opinion to support him."

Feng Xiaogang responded noncommittally, "You just said that "Terror Cruise" received a very good response at China Film's internal viewing conference."

"If this movie doesn't appear in the year-end schedule, it will be good for our "Assembly"."

Wang Zhongjun nodded and said: "Whether this can be done or not, it is worth a try."

The two of them came together and made an arrangement.

Wang Zhongjun has always been responsible for the affairs of the Huayi King and the company.

Wang Zhonglei is responsible for the actors in Huayi.

The division of labor between the two is clear.

Therefore, in Huayi's film production and release, Wang Zhongjun usually appears more frequently, rather than Wang Zhonglei.

"Is the internal response to "Terror Cruise" very good?" Liu Yifei was slightly lost in thought after hearing the news.

She has lived in the United States all year round and is now back in China for the co-production of "The King of Kung Fu".

Preparations are currently being made before filming begins. This is a rare opportunity. She really wants to perform this drama well, so she is preparing carefully to satisfy the director when filming begins.
