China Entertainment: I just want to give my child a home

Chapter 226 ended in 08, and "Interstellar" started (please subscribe!)

This year's Golden Horse Awards came to an end on December 12. Chen Kexin's "The Legend" came out on top, Zhang Hanyu won the best actor for "The Assembly", and Liu Meijun became the Golden Horse Best Actress for "I Don't Sell My Body, I Sell My Womb".

Ning Hao arranged for "The Journey" to be released on December 12, sandwiched between "Mei Lanfang" and "Ip Man." Now that "Mei Lanfang" has become a hit, he feels a little nervous.

"We're already on the ropes, why are you still afraid?"

"I didn't expect that this year's Lunar New Year show would be so fierce. Chen Kaige, Ye Weixin, Feng Xiaogang, Zhou Xingchi... it was really a fight between gods."

Chen Dong waved his hand, "Okay, okay, I'm not here to listen to your complaints."

As for why Chen Dong appeared in Bad Monkey, it was because Xing Aina wrote a new script, and the couple insisted that he come over and give some advice.

"Director Chen, the script is here. You read it first, and I'll make you a cup of tea."

Chen Dong nodded towards Xing Aina, said thank you to his sister-in-law, then picked up the script and started reading it.

The name of the script is "Racing Driver", but when Chen Dong read it, it was actually the content of "Crazy Racing Driver".

Ten minutes later, Xing Aina saw Chen Dong put down the script and quickly asked: "How about Director Chen?"

Chen Dong nodded.

In fact, this story seems a bit ordinary to him, but the style is the same as "Crazy Stone", inheriting its lightheartedness and humor.

So Chen Dong made a little suggestion: "Sister-in-law, I think we can add two words in front of 'racing driver'."

"What to add?" Xing Aina asked.

"crazy."

"Crazy...crazy stone, crazy racer."

Xing Aina was still thinking about it, but Ning Hao next to her was already excitedly slapping her thighs and cheering: "Good job, just add it and it will be my movie."

……

Although "The Journey" is only a low-budget comedy, because the film was written by Chen Dong, directed by Ning Hao, and starring Xu Zheng and Wang Baoqiang, it still enjoyed an equal reputation in front of the media before its release. The lineup of other Lunar New Year blockbusters.

On the 11th, the first-day box office results were released.

A total of 610 million was obtained.

Compared to the 'cheap' cost of this movie.

The box office on this first day can be said to be a blast.

Many people are waiting and watching, wondering whether this "Unfortunate Journey" can replicate the momentum of "The Stone".

The next day's box office revenue was 650 million.

It dropped on the third day, with only 520 million.

Because Ye Weixin's "Ip Man" was released on this day, it took away some of the film schedule and box office market.

Although the situation is excusable, after this upward trend was interrupted, it proved that "The Journey" cannot replicate the success of "The Stone".

But it should be no problem to break through the box office of 50 to 60 million in the end.

The rate of return can reach ten times, which is also very impressive data.

The first-day sales of "Ip Man" were 1400 million, and the media in Hong Kong reported heavily, predicting that the movie would definitely break 1.5 million, and could even hit million.

As a result, after the first day, the box office dropped day by day, and the stamina was seriously lacking. There was a question mark as to whether it could exceed 100 million.

It is far less lasting than "Mei Lanfang" by the great poet Chen Kaige.

On December 12, Ms. Liu’s studio version of “Once Upon a Time” was officially launched.

The number of downloads exceeded 6 million in just 100 hours after it went online, setting a new record.

On the same day, best-selling novel author Guo Jingming signed a contract with Tianyu, marking the beginning of a writer's career in the entertainment industry. As the start time of "Interstellar" is getting closer and closer, Chen Dong, the chief director, is embarrassed to continue to be a hands-off shopkeeper.

Chen Dong had to take care of all the preparations such as the costumes for the movie and the construction of the shooting scenes.

It is far less relaxed and casual than before when making a movie with an investment of less than 100 million.

And because the background of "Interstellar" is mostly barren mountains and snowy scenes, he could only shoot "indoor" scenes at the studio base.

Then the venue will be moved.

As for where to move, his director team has already chosen the location - Iceland.

The premiere of Zhou Xingchi's "Yangtze River No. 19" was held on the th. Chen Dong did not attend because he was too busy. He just asked Zhong Lifeng to go on his behalf.

On the 20th, film actors including Anne Hathaway began to arrive in the capital one after another.

Cheng Long came relatively late. He only reported to the crew on the 28th. When they met, he thanked Chen Dong for his son.

This day is also the day when Feng Xiaogang's "If You Are the One" is released. Incidentally, Chen Dong did not attend the premiere yesterday afternoon because he was too busy.

The box office of "Yangtze River No. 20", which was released on the 2100th, was 1 million on the first day. As of today, its total box office has exceeded million.

Many media predict that Zhou Xingchi may be the biggest winner of this year's Lunar New Year.

Until, after midnight, "If You Are the One" revealed that its first-day sales exceeded 30 million...

After working on the set for more than half a month, on the afternoon of December 12, Chen Dong took his wife home to spend New Year's Eve with his son and his grandmother.

On this day, a live broadcast accident occurred at the New Year's Eve party prepared by Mango TV: a program originally planned to be performed by last year's Fast Boy champion Chen Chusheng did not appear until the end of the party, leaving fans who were looking forward to him waiting hard all night. For this reason, the headline "Chen Chusheng is missing" was on the news in the early morning.

The next day, Chen Dong received news that Chen Chusheng was banned by Mango TV.

It is said that his agency Tianyu is also preparing to sue him.

Chen Dong didn't know the inside story and refused to comment, but he knew that Mango Channel's performance in the draft in the past two years was actually ugly.

January 2009, 1, New Year's Day.

Chen Dong's planned start-up does not need to be postponed.

China Film’s Huairou Film and Television Base.

"Interstellar" cast.

Because the opening ceremony was held today, many onlookers came to watch, including reporters, extras, and students from Nortel and China Opera.

"Hey, there are so many big-name stars, Mr. Han, Director Chen, Cheng Long, Wang Zuxian, Liu Yifei, Anne Hathaway, Matt Damon, David... This is the biggest crew I have ever seen."

"No, after all, the investment is more than one billion. Just look at the equipment and behind-the-scenes personnel, there are nearly a thousand people."

"Damn, watching the opening ceremony made my blood boil. I don't know if this crew is recruiting extras. I want to sign up."

"Director Chen is so young, he shouldn't be thirty years old, right?"

"I was born in 1984, so I'm only twenty-five."

"Damn it, I'm still working as an extra here at the age of twenty-five, and I'm already famous internationally. Oh, why are there such big gaps between people?"

"Why do I have to compete with a weirdo like Director Chen? I'm thirty years old this year and I'm still working as an extra. Doesn't it feel better?"

"Wow, uncle, you are quite a nice person."

"..."

Under the noisy onlookers around, the power-on ceremony came to the last process: the power-on press conference.
