Huayu’s ex-husband
Chapter 330 329 There is no one who can compete in this summer season
Chapter 330 329. There is no one who can fight this summer.
"Husband, welcome home!"
As soon as the nanny opened the door for Wei Wu, Liu Tianxian, who heard the noise, immediately ran over and began to welcome him with a sweet smile.
"Thank you." Wei Wu casually handed the suitcase to the nanny, opened his arms to catch her, and kissed her passionately.
It took a long time for the two of them to finally separate. When they did, they were drooling.
Liu Tianxian brought him slippers, and while Wei Wu was changing his shoes, he brought him a cup of hot tea, put it on the coffee table in front of him, and asked in a gentle tone:
"Have you finished filming "Xiu Chun Knife"?"
"Okay." Wei Wu put on his slippers and put his sneakers back into the shoe cabinet.
"Thank you for your hard work," Liu Tianxian then asked:
"So is this movie still going to be released in the summer?"
Wei Wu picked up the tea cup, blew on the tea foam, and took a shallow sip:
"Yes, it should be released in early July, but the specific date depends on the progress of the post-production process."
"Oh, so what are the strong rivals in the summer season?"
Wei Wu had already done his homework, so he shook his head and said:
“To be honest, there is no one who can play this summer, and the competition is far less intense than last year.
"There are only three Hollywood movies that can pose a certain threat to us, one is "Kung Fu Panda", one is "Hancock", and the other is "The Chronicles of Narnia 2".
"As for Chinese-language movies, they can be ignored."
Among the above three movies, the one with the highest box office is "Kung Fu Panda", which was released on June 20, with a box office of 186 million, ranking sixth in the year, one place lower than "Kung Fu King".
You must know that the highest-grossing Hollywood movie last summer was "Transformers", with a final box office of 281 million, almost a full 100 million more.
Then there is "Hancock", which was released on July 2 in its previous life, with a box office of 105 million, ranking 11th in the year.
As for the final "The Chronicles of Narnia 2", it was released on June 6 with a box office of 82.93 million, ranking 14th in the year.
You know, last summer, three Hollywood movies made it into the top 10 of the year.
They are "Transformers", "Pirates of the Caribbean 3" and "Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix", ranking second, sixth and eighth respectively.
There is only one "Kung Fu Panda" this year, and it's not even ranked very high, which shows that this year's summer schedule is really slow.
Of course, this is not a bad thing for Wei Wu. The competition pressure is low, which means that "Xiu Chun Dao" has a chance to achieve higher box office.
It has to be said that Wei Wu is actually not that confident in the commercial performance of "Xiu Chun Dao", at least it is definitely far less than "Thailand".
After all, in the previous life, "囧囧" was the annual box office champion in 2012, but "Xiu Chun Knife" failed to break 100 million even in 2014, and the final box office was only 93.17 million.
Of course, there are many objective reasons for the low box office of "Xiu Chun Dao".
First of all, one thing that cannot be ignored is that by that time in 2014, martial arts movies had long ceased to be popular.
Another thing is that whether it is the director Lu Yang or the male and female advocate Liu Shishi, this has no box office appeal.
This is clearly reflected in "The Legend of the White-Haired Witch: Moon Heaven", which was released at the same time as "The Legend of the White-Haired Witch" and was released only one week apart.
Also a movie with a martial arts theme, "The Legend of the White-Haired Witch" has a Douban score of only 3.8, not even half of the score of "The Legend of the White-Haired Witch" (7.7).
But just because the starring roles of "The Legend of the White-Haired Witch" are Fan Bingbing + Huang Xiaoming + Zhao Wenzhuo + Wang Xuebin, this movie with a poor reputation easily earned 389 million box office in its previous life.
Isn't it ironic enough that two movies with completely different reputations have four times the box office gap?
However, Wei Wu's version of "Xiu Chun Knife" stars Nie Yuan + Jing Tian + Chen Kun + Chen Kui + Wei Wu.
Except for Jing Tian, who is a little less famous, everyone else is a real star, and the overall cast is much better than the original movie!
And the box office appeal of this cast lineup is naturally different. Wei Wu even dared to say that 200 million was guaranteed, and even 250 million was basically out of the question.
In fact, even without these stars, based on Wei Wu's box office appeal alone, as long as the movie's rating is no less than 7 points, it is basically the same as having a box office of over 200 million.
The final reason for the low box office of the original "Xiu Chun Knife" movie is the lack of publicity for the movie.
First of all, there is insufficient funding, which means that this movie has no breakthrough topics.
In addition, due to limited funds, when promoting the road show, the crew only went to four cities in Beijing, Shanghai, Guangzhou and Chengdu, and most of the remaining places were not promoted at all.
However, this cannot be blamed on the crew. The main reason is that director Lu Yang has not proven himself at this time. Investors naturally have to be more cautious, so they are very stuck in funding, and Lu Yang can only be forced to "save money and spend money." .
Wei Wu will certainly not make the same mistakes again.
And for Wei Wu, publicity expenses are not a problem at all. Even if he has to spend 100 million on publicity, there are still publicity companies willing to help him.
Then again, it's impossible for Wei Wu to really spend so much money to promote this movie. Saturated publicity is very cost-effective!
In short, as long as Wei Wu learns from the experience and lessons of the original film, even if his version of "Xiu Chun Knife" cannot surpass "囧" at the box office, it should not be too far behind.
Moreover, this year’s summer season is relatively friendly to them, so that’s even safer!
"Huh? There isn't a single Chinese-language film worth watching in this summer's season?"
Liu Tianxian was obviously a little surprised. Logically speaking, this was impossible!
After all, the summer season is the second largest season after the Lunar New Year season, and it is also a battleground for military strategists. Why is there suddenly no one this year?
Wei Wu smiled slightly and said: "There was originally one, but it has been postponed!"
When Liu Tianxian saw that Wei Wu was smiling a little narrowly, his expression immediately changed:
"Who is it? It can't be "Red Cliff", right?"
"Bingdog", Wei Wu snapped his fingers proudly:
"Congratulations on guessing it right, but it's a pity that there is no reward."
The previous life "Red Cliff", to be more precise it should be "Red Cliff (Part 1)", was released in this summer season.
The film was released on July 10, with a final box office of 321 million, surpassing "If You Are the One" to rank first in the year.
What do you think of this "Red Cliff"? The box office performance can be said to be unique among the Chinese films released this summer.
The Chinese film with the second highest box office in this period is "Nine Beauties" directed by Wang Yuelun, with a box office of 51.46 million, ranking 20th in the year.
It almost fell out of the 20th place, which shows how poor Chinese-language films in this period are.
As for "Red Cliff", which has long since been withdrawn, they are currently busy raising money to reshoot the scenes of the heroine Zhang Baizhi!
At present, the candidate for the third Xiao Qiao has been selected. This person is none other than Big S, who became popular last year with the idol drama "Meeting Love Around the Corner".
I don’t know how Wu Yusen persuaded her, but to a certain extent she had no choice. She must have wanted to become a movie star for a long time, but she had been suffering from no chance.
Before that, she had only appeared in one movie, "Suspicious", and it was also a low-budget horror film.
Big S must know that "Red Cliff" is not a good cake, but how can a good cake get her turn?
Anyway, the tabloid said that during this period, Wu Yusen went around begging his grandpa and grandma to get investment every day, and he only had to kneel down.
This also caused his old friends and bosses to avoid him like a god of plague. When he heard it was him, he hung up the phone quickly, not to mention making excuses!
