Chapter 769 Billion-dollar leader, everything is flourishing and full of vitality

Chapter 769 Billion-dollar leader, everything is flourishing and full of vitality

As one of the emperors in the circle, the popularity of the top four is at its peak.

Lu Han has been very busy.

After the successful conclusion of this year's Reloaded concert.

It’s a variety show, an advertising shoot, and a business event.

He was also named by Pei Kang to make a guest appearance in the China Film Festival tribute blockbuster "The Founding of the Army".

That is, on the way to the set, an accident occurred.

"From the shuttle bus to the plane, I was surrounded by fans. On that flight, a full third of the seats were reserved by fans!"

"Is he okay?"

"The little deer twisted his waist and was sent to the hospital."

"What did the doctor say?"

"Fortunately, it's nothing serious."

Even though Yang Tianzhen was as bold as Yang Tianzhen, he still had lingering fears when he reported: "After leaving the airport, Sasaengfan hired scalpers to follow the car. The driver didn't treat him like a human being. He drove dangerously, and he also forced Lu Han's car to stop... …”

Yang Tianzhen followed Teacher Fan all the way through the bloody storm. What big scene has he not seen before?

This time I was a little scared.

The illegitimate fan directly drags the scalpers and plays fast and furious with you on the elevated road. Who can withstand this?

"Have you communicated with the fan club?"

Zhou Yutang frowned quietly when he heard this.

"Everyone tells fans not to chase cars or do dangerous things. Let the people in the fan club convey this to each other..."

Yang Tianzhen said helplessly: "Boss, some people won't listen."

It sounds magical, but in the entertainment industry it is normal.

There are also opinions on the age composition of celebrities' fans.

For example, Zhou Yutang, most of his fans are fans of Mu Qiang's career, and there are also quite a few people who follow the trend and call themselves "national husbands", but their gender is unknown.

A certain veteran cadre in the circle who loves to read articles written by Nobel Prize winners in mathematics can be called a aunt killer.

There was once an aunt in her 60s who was his biggest fan. She went to a variety show to publicly confess her whole life to him...

The age composition of the top four fans is relatively young, and some fans who are not mentally mature are prone to excessive behavior.

"Personal safety comes first, spend some time and do a good job of guiding people."

Zhou Yutang rubbed his forehead and said calmly: "Some of them may not be fans, so ask the legal department to do something."

Excluding some station ladies, some are bastards, and some are deliberately provoking in the name of fans.

The purpose is to anger the celebrity, then shoot the video, edit it and sell it, in an attempt to confuse right and wrong and eat up this wave of traffic.

Fortunately there were no accidents.

…

"The box office of "Legend of the Gods" in its first weekend was only 173 million. If it encounters Waterloo, the producer may lose all his money!"

"A magical masterpiece with an investment of 500 million, a gathering of big names, and global distribution has encountered a reputation crisis!"

"The film scheduling rates of Wanda, China Film, Shanghai Film, and Jiangdong Cinemas have all dropped!"

Super commercial blockbusters like "Legend of the Gods" are generally box-office beasts with all-in-one schedules, and theaters will not offer low film schedules.

But the current situation is that the movie has just been released and is already being flooded by angry audiences.

On the first day, the Douban score was 3.9. At the end of the first weekend, the score was only 3.2. On apps such as Maoyan, word-of-mouth exploded to the core of the earth, which was shocking.

The graceful and graceful middle-aged woman who was the nominal producer and executive producer finally couldn't sit still anymore and directly posted a short essay on Weibo,

“I don’t understand why there was such a black draft of apotheosis overnight!

I feel helpless and sad that the hard work of the crew over the past few years has been deliberately hacked!

The world has changed. In the past, the Hong Kong film industry only wished good things to you, me, and everyone. Only by making the cake in the film market bigger and letting a hundred flowers bloom can we attract more audiences to the theater.

And now, with no bottom line like this, you are calling it a bad movie just after it has been painted?

Some people don’t watch movies at all. Wild boar can’t eat fine chaff!

Black fans and trolls on the Internet, as well as paid writers, will not be rewarded! Our current situation is really no different than being attacked by terrorists! "

Mrs. Longwu has been keeping a low profile for a while since her last confrontation with Zhou Xingxing and her account was banned.

This time too, the defense was broken.

From the tears, madness, surprise, anger and other expressions that can be seen everywhere in the composition, we can see her Taoist heart on the verge of being broken.

Just letting her share articles that like and praise "Legend of the Gods" to gain respect is of no avail.

The vast majority of viewers who were labeled by her as unworthy of commenting on the movie still gave it negative reviews.

"The total investment in the movie is 500 million. Can it recover the cost? We still need to make a sequel."

"According to the current trend, I can only think about it in my dreams."

Zhou Yutang watched with amusement, now this was the topic and the butt of jokes between him and Sister Yi.

When Liu Shishi was not filming in Xiangjiang, he chatted with Governor Zhou every day: "I went to see this movie with Daxi..."

"Are you really going to see it?"

"Yu Dong said he wanted to knock you down."

Liu Shishi said plausibly: "I want to see how good it is. Only by knowing yourself and the enemy can you be victorious in every battle."

"How's the condition?"

"Halfway through, Daxi and I went out to eat."

Liu Shishi said: "Now in Xiangjiang, the media are also complaining about how Teacher Liang could take this role."

"People in the world cannot help themselves. Some favors are inevitable after all."

Zhou Yutang saw netizens spoofing King Zhou played by Liang Jiahui.

A gold ingot headdress blinded my eyes, and my face was paralyzed the whole time, and I couldn't see.

"By the way, I heard that Huayi originally invested in this movie?"

"Hua Yi was lucky this time. He ran very fast and escaped disaster."

In the Internet age, there are really no secrets.

Someone on the Internet has already dug out this capital bureau.

In addition to Moon Entertainment, China Star, and Bona as the main investors, the co-producer also includes Alibaba Pictures, a subsidiary of BAT that has risen rapidly in recent years.

In the past two years, Huayi had been working with China Stars, and the first announced film list was "Legend of the Gods," a 500-million-dollar production.

Jiangdong Entertainment has prospered by relying on its popular film and television IP.

Huayi, a company as big as this, is not all idiots. At that time, it wanted to rely on this project to boost the company's stock price. It even reached an agreement with 360 Games for mobile game adaptation, and integrated resources for cross-border cooperation and IP game adaptation of "Legend of the Gods". .

"Then why did it change to Bona later?"

Liu Shishi asked curiously.

Zhou Yutang thought in his mind: "At that time, wasn't it Ye Ning who was working with Huayi?"

"You mean..."

"If Ye Ning doesn't have the ability."

Zhou Yutang laughed: "Why does Mr. Wanda value it so much?"

When he just left his job, the richest man in China behaved calmly and kept saying that he was a solid soldier.

In fact, the old minister who followed him to great heights felt quite uncomfortable when he left because of interests.

It's like breaking up with a girlfriend of many years. You say it doesn't matter, but how can you not care in your heart?

The richest man in China couldn't swallow this breath, and issued a death order within the group to attack Huayi across the board!

In this summer season, the entire Chinese film and television industry saw the prominence of Wanda Cinemas as the leader.

Although Wanda's own production of "The Gunslinger" did not live up to expectations, the final total box office revenue was only 56.73 million.

But while the east is not bright, the west is bright. Ye Ning's legacy to Wanda, which involved investing in "Xiu Chun Knife 2" controlled by Jiangdong, is extremely strong | and the box office continues to hit one billion yuan.

Look at the whole big picture.

The ambush that Liu Xiaobing carried out after he took over Ye Ning's position was quite brilliant, almost smashing Hua Yi's head.

The two movies "Rock Tibetan Mastiff" and "Lu Yao Zhi Ma Li" together have a box office of just over 200 million, which is undoubtedly a loss that will vomit blood.

"At that time, Huayi's film list was released, but the project was stopped by Ye Ning, and Bona's Fatty Yu took advantage of it and took over the project."

"Then didn't Ye Ning make a meritorious service?"

"It's of little use if he has made a meritorious service. Now he is riding a tiger and it's hard to get off..."

Liu Shishi was interested in this aspect, so Zhou Yutang gave her the key points.

The size of Huayi and Wanda are not at the same level at all.

…

"The box office of "The Chaser" bucked the trend and grossed 125 million in its first weekend. It is another masterpiece of a crime suspense movie, and the acting skills of all the members are amazing..."

""Legend of the Gods" succeeded "Residence in the Fuchun Mountains" and became an 'epic-level bad movie.' Yu Dong, the president of Bona Pictures, challenged the Governor of Jiangdong. The goal of 3 billion is just a dream..."

The industry is all staring at this movie. Based on the box office of 173 million in the first weekend, it is not difficult to deduce that the final total box office will be 500 million, not to mention 3 billion.

Fatty Yu was distractedly browsing the film and television information on the website. His plump body sank into the boss's chair, and the chair let out a painful groan.

Yu Fatty's heart was blocked.

Unspeakable suffocation.

It feels like your scalp is numb after your blood pressure soars.

Not long ago, Princess Peacock was involved in a private equity fund scheme targeting celebrities in the industry, and a lot of money was locked up.

It didn't make him feel so uncomfortable.

Because the former only holds thousands of dollars, and with his family background, he can afford it.

This time the big bet on "Legend of the Gods" failed, and Bona suffered losses. In addition to the nine-digit amount of money wasted, the most important thing was that he, the head of Bona, was disgraced. Will become the laughingstock of the industry.

Before the movie was released, there were all kinds of rhetoric.

From the beginning, he sniped at Tang Detective and showed his sword to the Governor of Jiangdong; he destroyed the mermaid at the upper limit and broke the box office record in the Chinese film industry.

As a result, the bullet fired at that time now hit him between the eyebrows.

Taking over from Huayi, I originally thought I had picked up a big leak, but now it seems like I picked up a time bomb.

Now that the matter has come to this, all the solutions that need to be thought of have naturally been thought of.

It is difficult to support the theater chain of Bona alone. Whether it is China Film, Shanghai Film, or Wanda, they are all on the side of Jiangdong.

The film schedule of "Legend of the Gods" is actually similar to that of "The Murderer", a crime suspense movie with no big stars!

It is undeniable that the latter has a strong reputation.

Cao Baoping has dominated the Shanghai Magic City International Film Festival for two consecutive years, but the most important thing is under the banner of being produced by Jiangdong Entertainment.

Seeing the familiar name on the producer column, Yu Fatty's head was as big as two.

Netizens now joke that as long as a film and television project is supervised by Zhou Yutang, it has quality assurance and can be supported without brains.

This statement is by no means an exaggeration.

…

Bona's Yu Fatty was so anxious that he was in a corner where no one was paying attention.

LeTV Pictures is also having a tough time.

This summer's Sino-Korean co-production blockbuster "Bounty Hunter" hit the Korean ban, and its total box office was only 213 million, which was completely insufficient to cover the production costs.

There was a rumor on the Internet that LeTV might have a hidden danger of a broken capital chain.

Although Boss Jia publicly clarified it, people's hearts were still uneasy.

The cicadas are aware of the autumn wind before it blows.

The prospects of a listed company can be known by looking at the stock market.

For example, Mingjie, the leading entertainment company, almost monopolizes the domestic variety show market.

In addition to several national variety shows, this year there is also the blood transfusion of "Ace vs. Ace" from Blueberry TV. The company's market value is as stable as Mount Tai, and it is a well-deserved entertainment leader.

At this time, LeTV is in a precarious situation.

After a series of dazzling capital operations, the company's stock price has plummeted from 72 yuan in June to 45 yuan today, and LeTV's market value has also plunged wildly with the decline in stock prices.

Boss Jia had no choice but to release a big trick.

That is, "Jade Dynasty" and "The Great Wall" and other unreleased blockbusters were hyped again.

At this time, Chen Kaige's housekeeper Mei Diaochan officially announced: "The movie "Legend of the Demon Cat" jointly produced by LeTV Pictures, Kadokawa Pictures, and New Classics Films is adapted from the work of the Japanese fantasy novel super overlord Baku Yumemakura, and will be launched soon!

The first batch of starring actors has been announced, Huang Xuan, Sometani Shota, Zhang Yuqi, and Qin Hao will restore the atmosphere of the prosperous Tang Dynasty!

The second wave of actors will be announced later. This film will be the largest cooperation between Chinese and Japanese films so far, so stay tuned!"

As soon as the news came out, the circle was shocked.

It took six years and 1.7 billion to build a Tang City, and now this dish is finally served.

The first version of the actor concept poster released by Chen Hong, including the preparation highlights, the poet Chen walking in the Tang City, and the shots of explaining the play to the actors, immediately set off a huge wave.

In addition, "The Great Wall" will be released during the Spring Festival. Chen Kaige alone took on two LeTV film projects!

The prestige of the three veteran directors in China and the glory of becoming a god overnight at the Palme d'Or are still vivid in our minds.

Feng Xiaogang was not willing to lag behind and also said in a high-profile manner: "I Am Not Madame Bovary will go to Toronto first, and then to the San Sebastian International Film Festival in Spain!"

At the same time, another new movie in his hand, "Youth", is already in preparation.

Even Wu Baige was not willing to be lonely and released the latest news of the co-production project to show his presence.

The Sino-foreign co-production "The Hunt", jointly produced by Media Asia, China Film Group, and Island Capital, with a total investment of 200 million yuan, is also a gathering of Japanese stars!

In addition to Wu Baige, Jiang Wen's last dance of the Beiyang Trilogy, which has returned to the arena after settling down, is also in preparation.

For a while, the film and television industry in China was full of vitality.

…

Entering August, the entertainment headlines of major websites were all contracted by the wedding of Huo Jianhua and Ziwei Gege.

Zhou Yutang saw the shadow of an acquaintance in it.

Xu Weimi, in a white dress, is even more eye-catching than the bride.

She met Ziwei Gege when filming "16 Summers".

In the past few years, Xu Weimi has also developed well, and won the Golden Bell Award for Best Supporting Actress in Drama with this drama.

This time, she is the bridesmaid of the bride Ziwei Gege, and she has become a little famous.

Zhou Yutang's role in "Snow" is coming to an end.

These days, he has been meeting with the special effects team and working overtime at night to edit those fighting scenes first.

It's nothing, the TV station wants to grab the first round of broadcasting rights, the video website wants to discuss distribution, and the brand wants to insert advertisements...

It's a bit similar to the operation in the golden age of Hong Kong entertainment in the past, selling trailers.

It's just that the real thing that Zhou Yutang brought out is indeed worth the crazy gambling.

Facts have proved that movies are ultimately based on quality.

"Legend of the Gods", which was expected to make a big splash in the finale of the summer season, has completely stopped scheduling.

Mrs. Long Wu hanged herself on Weibo, but she couldn't save the reputation of the movie.

After seven days of release, the total box office was only 263 million, and it was hastily closed, completely nailed to the pillar of shame.

The fall of the God of Investiture has made all the rivals of the same period full.

First of all, the box office of "The Sword of Assassins 2" finally crossed the 1 billion threshold with difficulty, and "Cold War 2" took 854 million, which also tasted the sweetness.

Jackie Chan's "Skiptrace" had a total box office of 921 million, and came from behind to sit in the second place of the summer season.

Thanks to the contrast of the rivals, "The Murderer", which was released on the same day as the God of Investiture, continued to ferment its reputation, and the box office rose against the trend, with the box office of 275 million in the first seven days.

The investment in publicity resources was not too large, and Zhou Yutang originally thought that it would steadily earn about 150 million, but he didn't expect there would be an unexpected surprise.

Zhang Yi not only played a role with deep hatred, but also played a five-star killer from Northeast China in this play, and his acting skills were explosive, which was definitely not inferior to the new Golden Goblet Award winner Liu Huohua.

As for Reyiza, she didn't have much room to play in this play, but she still performed very well.

She is on a completely different track from the star artists.

If there is no work to be released, it is difficult to see her in the entertainment news.

She has been immersed in drama in private. Now, in terms of acting skills, she is probably several blocks away from her good sister Da Mimi who used to shoot magazines with her...

On the 9th, China Film was listed on the Shanghai Stock Exchange.

Zhang Hongsen, director of the Film Bureau, Tong Gang, deputy director of the General Administration of Press and Publication, and La Peikang, head of China Film, came on stage to ring the bell.

On the first day of listing, China Film opened at 10.70 yuan and finally closed at 12.84 yuan, an increase of 43.95%, with a total market value of 24 billion!

It took 12 years for the eldest brother to finally make it.

The second brother, Shanghai Film Academy, was not willing to be left alone. Ren Zhonglun successively successfully listed on the Shanghai Stock Exchange, with a total market value of 6.68 billion.

Zhou Yutang was also doing the finishing work on the set, and sent out pre-recorded videos to congratulate the two leading entertainment companies on their stock issuances.

In terms of size, the second brother is less interesting than the first brother.

However, Ren Zhonglun was cunning and calculated, and in addition to promoting Shanghai Film's listing, he also gained something else.

Ren Zhonglun was ambitious and was unable to obtain the third license to distribute imported films, but through some operations, he managed to consolidate the Shanghai International Film Festival's trading rights.

When Zhou Yutang received the news, he sincerely congratulated him, and he also admired the head of Shanghai Film Studio who looked elegant but actually had extraordinary methods.

Movies are art, and they are also profit-driven capital games.

The influence of an international film festival.

The most important thing is reflected in the awards and presentations.

It is necessary to provide a platform for cooperation and transactions for investment companies, film and television project workers, and international buyers.

The previous Magic City International Film Festival has always been criticized because of a fundamental flaw.

In other words, the film trading market of the Shanghai Film Festival is not tied to the film festival.

And now.

This flaw was filled by Ren Zhonglun.
