Chapter 585 VCR Short Film
(please order!)

In addition to the box office of "Havoc in Heaven", Fu Luo has to mention Zhou Xingxing's "Journey to the West: Conquering the Demons". This movie has been released for five weeks, with a total box office of 8.12 million yuan.

The fifth week's box office has even fallen below the 9 million yuan mark. Whether it can break through 12.46 million yuan in the end really depends on luck. This result is much worse than the [-] billion yuan in memory.

There is such a result, I believe it is indirectly related to "Havoc in Heaven". After all, "Havoc in Heaven" with a production cost of 1.8 million US dollars is really the best in the world in terms of visual effects.

And "Journey to the West", with a production cost of only 1.3 million yuan, is still acceptable compared to other movies, but it is naturally inferior when compared with "Havoc". There is no need to say much about the perception of a universal beauty, there is a gap.

Fortunately, the selling point of the movie "Journey to the West" is Zhou's nonsensical comedy, and the special effects are just embellishments, so it still has a lot of influence, and at the moment, Huayi's publicity team probably can't think of what to use "Arrears of tickets" stalk.

Despite this, the profitability of the movie "Journey to the West" has surpassed most movies, and the net profit is expected to be between 1.5 million and 2 million, which is definitely enough to make everyone envious.

In fact, during this period, not only "Journey to the West" was affected, but also "The Chinese Zodiac". Compared with the box office of 8.81 million yuan in memory, it is now only 6.68 million yuan, a difference of about 2 million yuan. more.

What's more, the already relatively bad "Blood Droplet" only had a box office of more than 3000 million, and "The Great Devil" starring Yan Fa in the century also only had a box office of more than 6000 million.

Hollywood blockbusters may be a little better. For example, the box office of "007 Skyfall" just exceeded 3 million, which is about 7000 million less than what I remembered. Another "Cloud Atlas" only had a box office of more than 8000 million, which is even less. about half.

Anyway, the sharpness of "Havoc" almost hurt many movies.

"Boss, when is the celebration banquet for "Havoc in Heaven"? Is it after "Scorching Sun" is finished?"

Next to him, seeing that Fu Luo had almost finished reading the box office data, Jiang Xiaoyu asked another question.

"Uh... okay, let's arrange it like this. By the way, has Universal responded? Just about "Despicable Me 2"?"

Fu Luo, who was woken up, responded to Jiang Xiaoyu, then thought of "Despicable Me 2" temporarily, and continued to ask casually.

As for the celebration banquet, now that the box office of "Havoc in Heaven" is so hot, it must be held. It should have been held long ago. After all, it can still play a role in publicity at that time. Otherwise, why would those movies with good box office have such a big fanfare? To hold a celebration banquet.

It's just that Fu Luo was celebrating the New Year at home at that time, so he naturally didn't have time to worry about these things, and other people couldn't celebrate the New Year, after all, it was the same Spring Festival.

"Not yet, but I heard that other domestic filmmakers seem to be in contact with Universal?"

As the assistant to the general manager, the useful information collected within the company will naturally be gathered to Jiang Xiaoyu, and then she will personally report the useful information to Fu Luo, the boss.

"It seems that Universal is up for sale? Forget it, if you have to stick to the price, even if you buy it back for one or two million less, it won't be too much work. By the way, is there anything else you want to tell me? One piece Tell me!"

In fact, Fu Luo had already figured out why Universal came to him. It turned out that Radio and Television had not passed the trial.

This also made him think of another thing, that is, the reason why "Despicable Me 2" passed the trial in the previous life and later was because the name was changed to "Despicable Me 2". I really can't get it.

Back then, he was affected by the memory of the first part of "Despicable Me", so he subconsciously submitted it for trial under the name of "Despicable Me". Universal may not have noticed this small detail, and the result of this trial was rejected by the radio and television station. , died a bit unjustly.

Hearing this, Jiang Xiaoyu suddenly took out a digital DV player from behind, and responded to his boss with a shake: "It really is true, "The Capital Meets Seattle" will record its premiere on Penguin in two days. The show, the program team of "Penguin Premiere" hopes that you can record a VCR short film, boss, I have the DV machine ready, how about we record it now?"

"What kind of VCR clip?"

"As for the movie "The Capital Meets Seattle", you can talk about it casually, and then call on the audience to go to the movie theater to support something, it should be like this!"

"Okay, let's record it!"

For the movie he invested in, Fu Luo naturally wanted to show up to call for it.

Five minutes later, Jiang Xiaoyu found a stool and set up the DV player. While making gestures, he shouted: "Get ready, one, two, three, start!"

Seeing this, Fu Luo didn't hesitate, and said directly: "Hello, Penguin netizens who are watching the video, I'm Fu Luo, and I'm glad that the movie "The Capital Meets Seattle" co-produced by Sand Dune and First Pictures , I will meet with you on the 21st of this month, I hope everyone can support me at that time, I am very grateful."

When he said the last sentence of this sentence, Fu Luo also put his hands together and bowed, so as to match the gratitude he said.

After it was over, Fu Luo paused and continued: "In addition, I would like to say that I personally like this movie very much, not because I am one of the investors, but because I really like it, otherwise Director Xue came to me with the script, and I would not make an investment decision so simply."

"Speaking of which, I personally have to complain about Director Xue's level of naming. You may not know that when Director Xue handed me the script of "The Capital Meets Seattle", the movie was still called "Beautiful Love". "

"My first reaction at the time was probably what the hell?"

"If I hadn't collaborated with Director Xue on "The Year in a Hurry", maybe I would have to reject it directly. Oh, it seems that I accidentally said what was in my heart. Director Xue, don't mind."

"Anyway, I finally opened the script, and I'm glad I opened the script, otherwise I might have missed a good movie. Well, I have said so much, but I actually want to tell everyone that "The Capital" When I encountered the name Seattle, there was nothing wrong with it, I changed it.”

"Do you feel that you are particularly fanciful, then come and praise me, hahaha!"

"Then let me talk about the actor, Wu Xiubo, I usually call him Old Wu, I think he is quite cute, definitely a cute uncle, he should be very attractive to girls, hehe, and his acting skills are also very good, I believe Everyone has seen it in "Search", and I also believe that Lao Wu will have a wonderful performance in "The Capital Meets Seattle", so let's look forward to it together!"

"There is also our heroine Gao Yuanyuan, the new Golden Horse actress. I don't need to say much about it. I believe this time there will be a wonderful performance as well."

"Okay, after talking a lot, it seems to be almost the same, but I have to remind everyone one last thing. On March 21, "Beijing Meets Seattle" will see you all in the cinema."

"Okay, Luoshen's VCR has finished playing. Welcome everyone back to the premiere of "Beijing Meets Seattle" co-broadcasted by Penguin Video. I am the host Liu Yiwei."

In other words, today is already NO.15. The premiere of "The Capital Meets Seattle" is being recorded in the capital. Liu Yiwei is naturally the host. I have previously interviewed the creator of "The Capital Meets Seattle" Xue Xiaolu, starring Gao Yuanyuan, Wu After Xiubo, Hai Qing, Mai Hongmei and others.

At the recording site, Fu Luo's pre-recorded VCR video was played again. During the period, a certain famous star's humorous words made the entire recording site burst into bursts of laughter from time to time.

　The writing method of the last paragraph is a bit like a movie lens, so I will explain it specially.
