Huayu: The director just wants to save money

Chapter 574 I won't go if I know the situation
Da Tiantian felt that this number was a little beyond her expectations.

"The final box office that the company calculated based on the trend was only about 12 billion. How come it suddenly increased so much?"

The gap between 12 billion and 15 billion is not that big, but the prediction obtained by Da Tiantian was calculated based on the data after "Love Is Sweet" was halfway through its release.

A difference of 300 million suddenly appeared, which is indeed quite outrageous.

"The answer is in the show we just watched." Zhou Mo explained.

Da Tiantian turned around subconsciously and looked at Hu Ge, Huo Jianhua, Chen Qiaoen, and Jiang Shuying who were wearing masks of pain on the screen, and burst out laughing.

She had forgotten all about it.

"I was negligent. The effect of the second season of The Eloquent One is no worse than the first one. It's not too exaggerated to bring an additional 300 million yuan to the movie."

Another good thing about the second episode of "Behind the Scenes" is that some of the revelations in the show actually match up with parts of the movie.

This resulted in many viewers repeatedly purchasing several movie tickets for the film in order to find the corresponding content after the program was broadcast.

Da Tiantian was a little curious: "What's Lao Hu's reaction now? I remember you said that after Lao Hu appeared on the show, he swore that he would never appear on the show again?

If he disobeys, he is a puppy, right? "

Zhou Mo did not answer directly, but took out his cell phone and handed it to Da Tiantian.

"Well, take a look for yourself."

When Datiantian opened the screen, she was shocked to find that in the group of "Loving Family", Hu Ge's avatar had turned into a puppy.

And the name of his group was changed to Zhenxiang.

Looking through the records online, there is a passage where four great Tang poets teased Hu Ge in a group.

Starting with Da Mimi, the four people took turns repeating Hu Ge’s words “If I do that again… I’ll be a puppy”.

Hugo's response to this was:

Director Zhou, if there is a chance in the future, please let me record another episode. I have no other intentions, but the last episode was recorded too quickly and I am a little confused, so I want to experience it again...

As soon as these words were spoken, the great poet of the Tang Dynasty reacted immediately.

This time Tang Yan is ahead.

Posted a picture of Zhang Fei from the old version of "Romance of the Three Kingdoms".

"Me too!"

Liu Shishi, Da Mimi, and Liu Yifei followed closely behind.

After everyone was done with the excitement, Zhou Mo came out and said, "It probably won't work in the short term. You can go on another episode after the spin-off of 'Love and Dear' is aired."

Da Tiantian put down her phone and suddenly remembered something.

"Then the next episode should be Brother Xiaoming and his group."

"Well, it should be aired in half a month, and they will go back to record in a few days."

There was a flash of anticipation in Da Tiantian's eyes.

Compared with the group of Tang Dynasty poets, Huang Xiaoming and his group are a generation earlier, and their status and resources are also strong enough.

This means that they have more information and are bolder.

Add to that the old rogue Wang Jing setting the pace, it's impossible for the pace not to explode.

"By the way, I remember that this movie was originally going to compete for a gold award. Has it been decided?" Da Tiantian asked.

"Well, Kinma?"

"Oh?"

"What? Do you have any questions?" "Well, I thought the Golden Statue Award was more likely." Da Tiantian didn't mention the Golden Rooster Award at all.

Ever since Golden Rooster changed the rules many years ago, Shanhe Company has basically been isolated from Golden Rooster.

"The requirements at the Hong Kong Film Awards are many and the scope is small, so it's actually not very interesting. The Golden Horse Awards have shown a lot of attitude in the past two years, so after the crew discussed it, they decided to go with the Golden Horse Awards." Zhou Mo explained the situation to Da Tiantian.

It was planned that "The Return" would win the gold award.

Among the three major awards, the most suitable award for "Return of the Motherland" at this point in time this year is indeed the Golden Horse Award.

Since 2016, the winning rate of mainland films at the Golden Horse Awards has suddenly increased to a higher level.

A typical example is Little Cannon, which won two awards at the Golden Horse Awards for two consecutive years.

In addition to these, there are also Zhang Yimou's "Shadow", Xu Zheng's "Dying to Survive", etc.

From this perspective, the Golden Horse Awards have indeed made it much easier for mainland insiders to win.

Of course, this relevant person does not include Zhou Mo.

He was never very interested in the three domestic gold medals, and even if he was competing for the prizes, he would prefer the three European gold medals.

The gold content is higher and the price it can be sold at is also higher.

So, after Zhou Mo sorted things out, he simply didn't think about going to Golden Horse again.

There's no need for that.

There are so many awards in the world, he has won the Palme d'Or, so other awards will only be easier.

"So what award is 'Return of the Motherland' going to win?" Da Tiantian asked again.

"Best Picture, that's what I suggested to them."

"What about the best actor and actress?"

"They decide for themselves and fight for it themselves. If they have connections, they can find connections. If they have people, they can find people. Our company will provide certain help."

Da Tiantian suddenly sighed: "Speaking of awards, to be honest, I thought JERK could win an Oscar again this year."

Since she started studying how to be a director, she has become more and more clear about some things.

Since last year, discussions on the refugee issue have become more and more frequent and louder around the world.

Coupled with the increasing social attention to the Oscars every year, as well as the correct factors, "JERK" may really be able to hit some Oscar awards again.

It’s a pity that the competition for the Oscars this year is too special.

Including but not limited to "Spotlight", a biographical film that tells the story of America's past, a priest and a child.

As for the strong contenders for Best Director and Best Actor, it is "The Revenant".

It's the one where Leo eats raw meat and almost commits self-torture in the snow.

It can be said that Leo almost tried his best for this Oscar.

In addition, there are some other awards, each with its own special features.

After thinking about it, Zhou Mo decided to change it first.

Next year, when his old friend, America's president, takes over, he will try to win an Oscar.

This makes it easier to get things done with your own people.

"There's no need to be discouraged. There will be many follow-up opportunities. There are still many topics in the world that can be filmed. Once some of these topics are filmed, you can basically try to win awards, so don't worry." Zhou Mo said to Da Tiantian.
