Chapter 77 of the main text of the Year of Light and Shadow, "The Return of the Great Sage" and "Hong Kong Empress", according to Xu Zheng's own words: split!

It seems like a road, action, comedy movie when chasing Wang Baobao in Hong Kong;

When I arrived in Shanghai, it seemed like I was a youth nostalgic film when I was on a date.

It was very split and made "Lost in Thailand". Of course Xu Zheng knew what to eat in the market, but he wanted to add to his own thinking. Unfortunately, he didn't have that ability, so the whole movie was a bit inappropriate...

Normally, this movie has a maximum box office of 300 million!

Still the same sentence...

The market this year is crazy.

With "Lost in Thailand" in front, it gave a box office of 1.2 billion yuan guaranteed by "Lost in Hong Kong"...

Even Lu Xiaoran himself thinks that 1.2 billion is a bit low...

However, he still agreed to 21 Holdings' guaranteed issuance of "Hong Kong Empress" for 1.2 billion...

Orange retreats to a joint issuance seat.

From this moment on, he and Xu Zhengsuan had nothing to do with him...

In fact, in this era, the domestic film industry in 2015 was considered a big director or a first-line director. There were no hard standards, but there were some basic standards: you had to have at least a movie with a box office of over one billion yuan, and the reputation was quite good.

According to this standard, except for those old guys, only Lu Xiaoran, Yang Qing, Ning Hao, Xu Zheng, and Guo Shubo, who recently met the standards...

Guo Shubo knew in his heart that he could enter the Billion Club entirely because the first two movies of "Big Man 3" were so popular enough!

The Orange model is considered to be the producer-centered production system.

Including "Hong Kong Empress", the producer and producer all wrote about Lu Xiaoran.

The problem is that Lao Lu essentially follows the director-centered system, so he doesn't like to restrict the director's performance. He basically just puts a producer's name and doesn't care about it...

It is mainly based on early market practice: if a company can have a strong director in charge and continue to launch movies that sell well in the market, then the stars of all sizes outside can choose whatever they want.

With funds and good directors, you will naturally stand upstream of stars and actors!

Isn’t this how Huayi started his career?

Orange started out with a group of directors...

The problem is that the producer nominally coordinates the overall situation, but in fact the director is responsible for the operation of the entire project, which will give the director an illusion: I can do it without you!

When he is in a slight state, his ambition is his best support. He will be more willing than anyone to concentrate on strengthening himself, do things seriously, and do things seriously because he knows what he wants.

But once he is famous and famous all over the world, his ambition is likely to support him in entering the next stage of his life.

For example, establish a faction by yourself!

There is no reason to have to be vassalized by others!

It’s raining and my mother wants to marry, let them go! People are dispersed and the team is difficult to lead!

The most important foundation for oranges to be so big is Lu Xiaoran. As long as Boss Lu is still there, it doesn’t matter who leaves!

...

"The Taoist Goes Down the Mountain" has a working day drop of 60%...

On the seventh day of release, "Tiny Times 4" is here.

"Tiny Times 4" had 107 million on the first day, and the next day, 92 million...

It was a coincidence that "Gardenia Blossoms" opened the painting the next day, and won 98 million on the first day...

"The Return of the Great Sage" started painting on the same day, with a revenue of 47 million on the first day, and 17% of the film was filmed.

Then, Lu Xiaoran took the lead, and a bunch of big vs began to praise "The Return of the Great Sage" on Weibo:

"The little monk said it very well. The great saint Sun Wukong, his body is like black iron, his eyes are golden eyes, and his immortality is still seventy-two changes. One falls, and it is one hundred and eight thousand miles away!"

"I like to see the expressions of children in the theater. They are blindly watching, just like myself back then."

"The Monkey King is my male god!"

"You can imagine that twenty years ago, children of the same age were like young boys in the cinema today, stretching their necks and following the sound of gongs and drums, the curtains separated from each other and a monkey appeared. So they opened their mouths wide, incredible, and their hands slapped red. The first time they met Sun Wukong, they became a great hero in their lives."

"I like the Monkey King, I like "The Return of the Great Sage". The Monkey King was originally a hero in the hearts of children!"

"The first time I saw Tian Xiaopeng's drawings, I decided to do "The Return of the Great Sage"!"

"I changed the occasion, different equipment, different craftsmen, different voices, different audiences, telling the same monkey, "The Return of the Great Sage", which is also the return of Chinese comics. I am confident that "The Return of the Great Sage" will ignite the entire summer season!"

Of course, if the quality of "The Return of the Great Sage" itself is average, then it is useless to brag...

Objectively speaking, "The Return of the Great Sage" can only be considered a passing qualification at most...

Whether it's special effects or production...

Can you compare with Pixar's gang of sluts?

Can you compare with DreamWorks?

But for many movie fans and viewers, "The Return of the Great Sage" cannot be said objectively.

The things carried by this movie are the same as the golden cudgel taken out after the Great Sage returned: it weighs 13,600 kilograms!

In recent years, the environment for Chinese animated films has been very bad!

Chinese cartoons?

That's for the children!

"The Return of the Great Sage" is different. It tells a very simple story, with very powerful pictures and very popular dubbing.

But it is suitable for both young and old. Even Liu Yifei posted a selfie of Cos Great Sage on Weibo...

Also, thanks to my colleagues, "Tiny Times 4" and "Gardenia Blossoms" released at the same time have reached the point where no one cares about it. They are standard fan movies, taking away the box office they should earn, and then getting out quietly...

Film critics were busy praising "The Return of the Great Sage" and had no time to pay attention to those two movies...

Although "Tiny Times 4" was released for 7 days, the box office closed at 450 million;

"Gardenia Bloom" has a box office of 350 million in 7 days...

There are really no people and the others...

These two "movies", one had a box office of 399 million in the first weekend, and the other had a box office of 269 million in the first weekend...

On weekdays, the declines were 65% and 68% respectively...

"The Return of the Great Sage" had a box office of 150 million in the first weekend...

The current online reputation has not affected the theater chain and the audience buying tickets so quickly, so bad movies still have 3-5 days of money-making space...

In 2019, a bunch of producers still had this idea, so they gave up the Chinese Valentine's Day holiday and released "Live Sea Fortress" on Friday. They wanted to play the time difference and win at least the first three days of box office...

Unfortunately, it hasn't arrived for three hours, and "Liaohai Fortress" has been full of negative reviews...

Times are getting too fast...

When Lu Xiaoran saw that "The Return of the Great Sage" had a box office of 49 million on Monday, only 1 million lower than Sunday's box office, he already understood that this movie was sure to set a record...

The follow-up publicity department will play its role freely!

He has already been involved in the casting of "Geng Hao Back to Hometown"...

The heroine is the girlfriend of Geng Hao. She is around 28 years old and doesn't have to look too good, but she must have that kind of CP feeling with Huang Bo...

Do you understand the CP feeling?
