That year Huayu

"Co-produced by China Film, Universal Pictures, Legendary Pictures, and LeTV Pictures, and directed by Zhang Yimou, the Sino-US co-production blockbuster "The Great Wall" will be released in North America at 7 a.m. Los Angeles time on the 17th.

It is reported that "The Great Wall" opened to 3,325 theaters on its first day and grossed US$5.9 million at the box office, equivalent to RMB 40.49 million... After its opening, the film's reputation in the North American market collapsed, and complaints continued..."

"Variety Magazine reported: Zhang Yimou cleverly gave "The Great Wall" a Hollywood-like appearance, but his personal depiction of throbbing passion, control of character relationships, and control of visual elements all failed this film. The lifeless epicness.”

"Bloomberg News commented: "The Great Wall" is one of the most expensive movies ever co-produced with China, and it is also a huge cultural failure!"

"Chicago Herald Tribune reports: A monster movie, a white savior movie, an outrageously dull movie."

"The New York Times: "The Great Wall" is a mixture of lame dialogue and obtrusive romantic elements, and the actors' endless preaching of inflammatory values."

"Empire magazine reported: "The Great Wall" uses too many monsters created by CGI special effects. Coupled with its clichéd plot, rigid script and stiff performances by the actors, the whole movie is a disappointment. It is undoubtedly A disaster."

“The Los Angeles Times said: Starring Matt Damon, veteran Andy Lau, a host of Chinese stars, and with the acclaimed director Zhang Yimou, The Great Wall was supposed to be a game-changer and prove that booming Chinese films could also work in An explosive success on the Western screen, but not this time, The Great Wall was a huge failure!”

"The Telegraph review: There's one thing The Great Wall does absolutely right, and that's the wall, because watching the film is like banging your head against it."

"The Hollywood Daily commented on Matt Damon and said: The high salary made him give up his professional ethics as a movie star actor, and he set a new lower limit in his career with "The Great Wall"!"

…

It must be said that the foreign media's evaluation of "The Great Wall" was very sharp, without any concern for the face of the Hollywood giant Universal Pictures.

Compared with the earlier reports by the domestic media, they seemed very funny, which can be described as "flattery" and "singing praises".

There is no doubt that the "battle situation" of "The Great Wall" in North America has been the laughing stock of the entire Internet since it airborne on Weibo early in the morning. The entire mainland film industry cast their mocking eyes on China Film.

Because it can be inferred from the overwhelming negative reviews from foreign media that the box office of "The Great Wall" in North America will only get worse, very bad!

After all, the theaters and media there are not like those in China, which have always maintained film schedules and reputation due to the influence of China Film.

China Film.

Since the afternoon of the 18th, that is, yesterday evening, La Peikang’s right eyelid has been twitching.

Sure enough, when he arrived at the office today, he was greeted by bad news from the North American Film Market.

"La Dong, an email from Universal Pictures has also been sent, informing us that the Oscar schedule of the crew of "The Great Wall"...is officially cancelled."

Although he already knew it in his heart, after hearing what the secretary said word for word, La Peikang was still a little weak, very weak, and his energy and energy seemed to be drained out in an instant.

"The Great Wall", which he had high hopes for since the project was established, has truly become the biggest stain on his resume that cannot be erased from today!

When things got to this point, La Peikang was not as "angry" as he imagined; but the secretary saw it and knew for sure that the leader's mentality at this moment was definitely worse than before!

Because he understands La Peikang, the calmer the latter appears on the surface at the moment, the more it shows that his mentality has lost its grip, like a pool of stagnant water...

"What's the final box office they predicted?" After a long silence in the office, La Peikang asked hoarsely.

"Forty...about 40 million US dollars, Universal said...such film reviews and word-of-mouth have seriously affected the sale of copyrights...the final loss is expected to be around 80 million US dollars..."

The secretary truthfully said that the first-day box office of "The Great Wall" was not as high as the box office of "Fifty Shades Freed" on the 17th, and the latter had been released for nearly 10 days!

"You, please go out first and let me calm down alone... calm down."

La Peikang's voice trembled unconsciously when he spoke, and his face turned pale. Eighty million US dollars, that’s a loss of more than 500 million US dollars!

"Okay." The secretary quickly left the office without looking back. He knew very well that the leader's mood was about to get out of control.

…

The cast of "I'm Not the God of Medicine".

Lin Nan looked at the "poop" brought by the prop team and felt a little nauseous for a while.

But he was extremely sure that the "poop" in front of him did have the smell of chocolate, but the color was just a bit yellow.

"This looks too similar, right? The wetness and dryness are just right, haha..." Han Jianu's laughter had a "smell" in it.

When Liu Yifei heard this, she immediately avoided her with a look of disgust on her face, "Stop talking, it's disgusting."

"Director Lin, Director Han, this is made with chocolate sauce, corn flour and starch. Just kidding, it tastes pretty good."

The people in the props team laughed and introduced that they had actually tasted these "turds" when they were mixing them. Of course, it was not the shape it was in front of me at that time.

"Okay, let's do it this way. Let the extras be more accurate when they hit people, and give close-ups. We'll try to get one or two shots."

Yes, the next scene is a group of terminally ill patients and their families, holding banners and signs, wearing T-shirts with protest words, and blocking the domestic company of genuine drugs to protest. Someone threw feces.

"Okay, Director Lin."

After the props team left, Lin Nan looked at Wang Chuanju again:

"Pay attention to your facial expressions, demeanor and mental state in your shots later, and the drama in your eyes must be obvious. Hurry up and think about it again."

"No problem, Director Lin." Wang Chuanju nodded seriously.

Lin Nan heard that he was practicing overtime every night, and he would perform his scenes in the next two days in advance until he was satisfied. His attitude was very good.

Finally, it was Li Naiwen. He didn't have many scenes, but that role was indeed a "villain" who was not a villain.

After all, as the line in the script said: There is only one disease in this world, and that is poverty!

As for those who sell drugs at sky-high prices, it is really hard for outsiders to say whether they are guilty or wrong, because this is not within the scope of the law. Even if we use morality to delve into it, it is difficult to tell.

"Sister Na is asking if we can move up the cameo of Xiao Shitou. It will be filmed in the next two days, and he has to rush back to prepare for the start of school."

At this time, Liu Yifei came over with the phone on the phone, and Lin Nan immediately took over: "Sister Na, how about filming tomorrow morning?"

"Well, it's okay. After filming, we can just take the high-speed train back in the afternoon." Xing Aina agreed with a smile.

After hanging up the phone, Lin Nan handed the phone to Liu Yifei again, and did not forget to joke: "Rich woman, we have to be on the scene from tomorrow afternoon to evening!"

"Handsome guy, if you dance well, I will reward you, hehe." Liu Yifei raised her eyebrows at Lin Nan teasingly, eager to try.

…

To make matters worse, on the morning of the 20th, the news about the film "Journey to the West: The Demons Strike Back" being released ranked first on Weibo's hot search list.

"The large-scale costume action fantasy comedy "Journey to the West: The Demons Strike Back", jointly produced by 23 film and television companies in the industry, including China Film, Star, Wanda, Huayi, and Alibaba Pictures, supervised and written by Zhou Xingchi, and directed by Xu Ke, was officially released last night."

"It is reported that "Journey to the West: The Demons Strike Back" has been released for 23 days and has a total box office of 1.606 billion; compared with the production cost of 440 million, the profit after the 23 producers share the profit is very small.

If the time cost is calculated, the film producers may not even make any profit... Zhou Xingchi's box office myth of "The Mermaid" has not been continued!"

"Since November 1 last year, Since March 1, in just over three months, China Film Group has suffered heavy losses with three blockbusters, including Billy Lynn's Long Halftime Walk, The Great Wall, and Journey to the West: The Demons Strike Back. "

"In the morning, the imported blockbuster "Resident Evil: The Final Chapter" held a high-profile premiere press conference in the capital, with Milla Jovovich, Iain Glen, Ali Larter and other main actors appearing in front of the media cameras... After 4 years, Li Bingbing appeared again in the 'Ada Wong' style and went on stage to cheer..."

China Film Group has become a joke and a target of public criticism for the entire industry, because it has become so bad in just one year.

In the eyes of the industry, everything seems so abrupt, but it seems that there is no problem at all; China Film Group has been going downhill all the way, with three consecutive failures... It even affected the stock price that was protected by the "monopoly power".

"March 16? OK, I'll check the specific shooting progress at that time and make some adjustments in advance."

Lin Nan was answering Jia Zhangke's call, while Han Jianu was helping to keep an eye on the camera.

The launch ceremony and large-scale media conference of the Pingyao International Film Festival will be held on March 16 in the capital. As a co-sponsor, Lin Nan naturally needs to be present.

"Thank you, Director Lin. See you next month."

"Yes, see you next month."

This work is organized and uploaded by Liujiu Book Bar~~

After walking to the monitor, the screen is exactly the shot of Xu Zheng and Ning Hao's son. The two play father and son in the play.

The little guy is influenced by his surroundings and still acts like that. It's just that he is a little shy in this shot, but because of this shyness, it can be regarded as a true performance.

"Ka! Very good, passed."

Han Jianu shouted with a laugh, and then turned back to joke with Lin Nan and Xing Aina: "At such a young age, he is acting nude in Director Lin's movie. This boy will definitely become a great man!"

Hearing this, Lin Nan glared at Xiao Han in silence, while Xing Aina laughed non-stop. Is this also a kind of exercise?

Looking at the big bathhouse, Xu Zheng was grabbing Xiao Shitou who was about to put on his clothes and teasing him: "Hey, what's there to be embarrassed about? When you were just born, I played your little brother, hehe..."

"Mom, look at Uncle Xu." The child blushed and complained to Xing Aina in a hoarse voice.

After a quick lunch at noon, Jiang Xingrou sent someone to send Xing Aina and her son and their assistant to the high-speed rail station. The scenes between Cheng Yong and his son were all finished.

At the same time, Hongxingwu also called Liu Yifei in the afternoon, saying that the equity change with Jingtian Studio had been completed, and the registration information in the industrial and commercial system would be updated within two days.

If nothing unexpected happens, even if the two sides do not take the initiative to announce the news before the end of the month, the media will report it.

…

Huang Xiaoming once again took leave from the crew of "The Wind Rises in the Fire". As for the reason, of course it was because of Yang Ying;

Otherwise, based on his level of professionalism, he would never trouble Kong Sheng temporarily and disrupt the crew's normal shooting plan.

"How's it going?" Seeing Huang Xiaoming coming back from the outside world, Yang Ying immediately greeted him, only caring about his own resources.

Leader Huang showed a tired smile and nodded.

"Really?"

"Well, it's true, but there are some things I need to tell you first."

"You tell me, I'm listening."

""Lonely Beauty Don't Admire Yourself" gave Huace a headache. I spent a lot of effort this afternoon to help you decide on the female lead. Originally, they were interested in Yang Mi!

The drama will be publicly announced for casting next month and is scheduled to start filming in May. During this time, you must calm down and carefully ponder the script, or I can go to Nortel to help you find a teacher for guidance..."

Yang Ying was not distracted by Huang Xiaoming's serious words. Her mind was already focused on the script the former brought back.

"Here, please read the script carefully. This is the first domestic urban drama about Internet entrepreneurship. It is also a big iIP adaptation by a well-known author..."

Huang Xiaoming handed the script to Yang Ying, who couldn't wait to turn the first page, ""Entrepreneurial Era"?!"

…

The nightclub is of course full of entertainment, with a large number of guest performers, and the dancers in scantily clad clothes swaying to the music under the lights... their white thighs and graceful figures...

Xu Zheng, Bai Bing, Jin Shijie and Zhang Yu are the protagonists of this scene, but Lin Nan will be the one who steals the most scene in this scene, even if it is only a one-minute cameo scene.

Like Ren Zhonglun, the chairman of SIPG, he will contribute as a "funny character" to this reality-themed medical blockbuster.

In the final edited film, after this scene, the slightly cheerful plot in the film will also end completely.

The rest is reality!

Han Ga Nyeo sat behind the monitor, while all the leading actors and dozens of extras were preparing and waiting for instructions, including the sound engineer in the nightclub.

"Senior Brother Lin, I'm looking forward to your dancing."

Han Jianu raised her eyebrows at Lin Nan, then looked at the young and beautiful female customer Liu Yifei, "Rich lady, remember to reward him hard."

"Okay." Miss Liu gestured with a smile and gave Lin Nan a wink.

At the same time, the faces of the leading actors all had a look of anticipation. Especially Bai Bing, Director Lin's guest role was to act opposite her, and then Cheng Yong threw money at her...

Not long after, after receiving the signal that everyone was in place, Han Jianyu immediately took up the position of director.

"All departments are preparing... 3, 2, 1, action!"

The camera's lens passed in front of a group of dancers on the stage... The prelude scene before Lin Nan's appearance began.

"Come on, let's go."

"Brother Jingyong..." Bai Bing screamed excitedly.
