Chapter 548 : Communicate with Ab, compete for Golden Rooster Best Actor!

After finishing a bottle of red wine, the baby started to blush, looking even more charming than usual.

The baby is very good and can drink better than most of the women Cao Jun has met.

It is said that smoking and drinking never leave home. Like most female stars in the entertainment industry, Baby also smokes, and the one she smokes is Marlboro, but what she smokes is not an ordinary Marlboro.

Cao Jun usually smoked Huazi, didn't like smoking cigars, and had no interest in Marlboros. The two of them just drank wine and chatted.

After chatting for a while, Cao Jun also became interested, so he patted the place next to him and asked the baby to come over.

The baby was also very knowledgeable and sat obediently next to Cao Jun.

Baby is even thinner than Yuanquan, but she is really good-looking. In addition, she is really good at communication, and it is easy for Cao Jun to get the upper hand.

If the baby invites Cao Jun to his home, it would be unreasonable if he doesn't like the landlord.

…(Extra)…

It's quiet at night.

The babies are both night owls and addicted to smoking. Even if they are very tired, they still want to smoke together.

Baby also continued to spend some time smoking with Cao Jun, and asked with great interest: "Director Cao, when will I have the opportunity to cooperate with you?"

In front of Cao Jun, the baby is still humble and respected, because his current status in the entertainment industry is definitely not lower than that of Huang Zhongjun and Huang Zhonglei brothers.

baby: "

Baby, let me tell you this, you are not suitable to be an actor, you are more suitable to be a star."

"But, since you asked me proactively, I will definitely agree to let you star in the next movie I invest in!"

Hearing what Cao Jun said, the baby almost jumped with excitement, because everyone knows that almost every movie starring Cao Jun has become a hit.

"Really! Brother Jun, you are great! I love you so much!" the baby said excitedly, hugging Cao Jun excitedly, and then kissed Cao Jun on the face.

Cao Jun said dumbfounded: "Of course it's true, I, Cao Jun, said it exactly!"

Of course, Cao Jun also has his own plans. The baby's acting skills are definitely not suitable for playing the leading female role, but with her image and temperament, she can also be competent in playing some simple roles if she is guided carefully.

The movie Cao Jun is talking about is the movie "Ghost Blowing the Lamp: The Secret of the Dragon" jointly produced by Century Pictures, Wanda Pictures, Huayi Brothers, and Enlight Pictures.

The movie "Ghost Blowing the Lamp: Searching for the Dragon" mainly tells the story of Hu Bayi, Fatty Wang and Shirley Yang, who entered the thousand-year-old tomb in the grassland.

If nothing else goes wrong, Cao Jun will play the role of Hu Bayi in this version of the ghost who blows out the lamp. Originally, he didn't want to play this nude role and wanted Liu Ye to play it.

But the bosses of other film and television companies disagreed, feeling that Liu Ye had no box office appeal at all and was simply not qualified to be the leading actor in the movie "Ghost Blowing the Lamp: The Secret of the Dragon".

In their opinion, only Cao Jun himself playing the role of Hu Bayi is the most suitable candidate.

As for the candidate for the heroine Shirley Yang, it is still being selected. Many female stars, including Shu Qi and Zhang Yuqi, are very interested in this role.

September 28, 19:00 pm.

The 29th Golden Rooster Awards ceremony was held at the Wuhan Culture Exhibition Center.

What makes Cao Jun feel embarrassed is that this day is also the first day that the movie "Detective Dee: The Dragon King of the Dragon King", which he starred in and invested in, was released nationwide.

Cao Jun also had no choice but to go to Wuhan to promote the movie "Detective Dee: The Dragon King" while participating in this year's Golden Rooster Awards.

Unlike the Hundred Flowers Award, which is "based on the opinions of the audience," the Golden Rooster Award places more emphasis on professionalism and is also known as the "Expert Award."

However, although the Golden Rooster Award is the most valuable film award in mainland China, it has become increasingly useless in recent years.

One of the reasons why it is becoming more and more useless is probably related to the requirement to change the host city every year.

There is no fixed venue, and the experience and summary accumulated every year cannot be used in the next city.

Therefore, every year during the Golden Rooster and Hundred Flowers, there are always various problems such as organizational chaos, media staying in hotels that are too far from the event venue, and many other problems.

Compared with the various industry forums, themed film screenings and other "nutritive" activities at major film festivals, the Golden Rooster Film Festival is rarely held, so it becomes a judge just going through the motions, and stars sit in a row to receive awards.

The chicken rib festival.

This edition of the Golden Rooster Awards has reached the point of arduous struggle, and can be called the "most deserted in history". On the first day of the opening, there were zero stars, zero crew, and zero activities. It was jokingly called a "three-zero product" by media reporters.

Although it is said to be a frugal festival and let the film festival return to the film itself, the influence of Golden Rooster and Hundred Flowers is declining day by day, and the lack of celebrities and crews is the reason why it is forced to "downsize".

However, on the day of the awards ceremony, there were still many celebrities and film crews present.

Cao Jun's personal visit to the Golden Rooster Awards this time can be regarded as bringing a lot of heat and topics to the Golden Rooster Awards, because many fans hope that he can win the first award in his acting career with the movie "Partners in China".

Best Actor Award.

Finally, at the 29th China Film Golden Rooster Awards Ceremony, Cao Jun shared the Best Actor award with Zhang Guoli, who performed well in the movie "1942" for his role as Cheng Dongqing in "Partners in China"

honor.

As a movie superstar who is often questioned by netizens for having only won Best Actor but not Best Actor, Cao Jun is very proud to be able to win the "Golden Rooster Best Actor" this time, and Wuhan has also become a blessed place in his eyes.

In the arena, some people are happy while others are sad. After each Golden Rooster Award, the audience will not only applaud the winners with great success, but also feel sorry for those regrettable "big hits", such as Zhang Ziyi's "The Grandmaster"

.

At the 29th Golden Rooster Awards, Zhang Ziyi, who was nominated for Best Actress for "The Grandmaster", seemed to be the biggest favorite before the competition.

By the way, Wong Kar-wai was originally filming "The Grandmaster" for Tony Leung, but in the end he left most of the glory to Zhang Ziyi, and Zhang Ziyi also used the dazzling role of "Gong Er" to prove that she is absolutely qualified to compete with Zhang Yimou and Ang Lee.

, alongside famous directors such as Wong Kar-Wai.

Unfortunately, the winner of this year's Golden Rooster Award was the famous actress Song Jia, who also had a wonderful performance in the movie "Xiao Hong".

Although Zhang Ziyi later won the Best Actress Award at more than ten heavyweight film festivals for her role as "Gong Er", she missed out on this "Golden Rooster Queen" and became a regret in the hearts of many movie fans.

After a few years, Xiao Song was also filled with emotions when he and Cao Jun were conferred the title of emperor and empress again on the stage. He even specially thanked Cao Jun on the stage.

After stepping down, Song Jia asked Cao Jun next to her: "Let's celebrate together tonight?"

Cao Jun looked at little Song Jia, whom he hadn't seen for a long time, and had wild thoughts in his mind.

But because he had to go to other places with Tsui Hark and the crew of "Detective Dee: The Dragon King" to promote the movie, Cao Jun had no choice but to turn down Song Jia.

There is another reason why Cao Jun rejected little Song Jia. Baby, baby also worked with him to promote the movie "Detective Dee: The God of Dragon King".

Although little Song Jia understood Cao Jun's difficulties, she still felt disappointed and sad.

As early as a few years ago, Xiao Songjia and Cao Jun had a vigorous exchange after winning the TV drama "Latent" together.

But in the past few years, Cao Jun has become more and more popular, but she has completely forgotten about her old friend, and the two have almost no contact.

Thinking of this, little Song Jia sighed helplessly: "You are really heartless."

Cao Jun was immersed in the joy and excitement of winning the Best Film Award. Facing Xiao Songjia's scolding, he looked confused and asked doubtfully: "What's wrong? What do you mean by that? I didn't offend you, did I?"

Little Song Jia rolled her eyes at Cao Jun, pretending to be angry and said: "No, you don't care about me anymore, how can you still offend me?"

Hearing what little Song Jia said, Cao Jun immediately understood what little Song Jia meant, and immediately replied with a smile: "Calm down, when I finish the promotion of this movie, I will definitely come to you in person to apologize!"

Although little Song Jia is not a great beauty, she is still a very tasteful woman who gives people a particularly mysterious feeling.

Especially in the past few years, Song Jia's temperament has been improving day by day, and she is definitely more temperamental and tasteful than before.

At the same time, the ancient costume suspense fantasy masterpiece "Detective Dee: The Dragon King", produced and distributed by Huayi Brothers, directed by "genius" director Tsui Hark, with Shi Nansheng as director and producer, Wang Zhonglei as chief producer, and Cao Jun as the leading actor, is now in theaters

On the first day, it successfully earned 64 million yuan in box office, setting a first-day box office record for a domestic film during the National Day holiday.

It can be said that Cao Jun had a double blessing this time. Not only did he win the Golden Rooster Award for Best Actor, but the movie he starred in was also a big hit in the film market. He truly achieved a balance between art and business, and truly achieved both!

By the way, September should have been the prime summer season for the film market, but due to the lack of strong films to attract audiences, the daily box office after the Mid-Autumn Festival has continued to hover at a low of 20 million, and theater chains are "in mourning". Theater managers

Previously, there was strong expectation that "Detective Dee: The Dragon King" directed by Tsui Hark and starring Cao Jun would "come in to save the market".

After the premiere, many theater managers said that they had "finally waited for a blockbuster to save the market" and believed that nearly 40% of the first-day film schedule was still missing and would continue to strengthen in the future.

The last film "Detective Detective Dee: The Great Empire" was released in 2010. It was a success both in terms of word-of-mouth and box office. The box office in the mainland was about 300 million yuan. With Cao Jun joining the cast this time, "Detective Detective Dee: The Dragon King" is expected to achieve great results again.

Continuing the myth and setting a new box office record for Tsui Hark's films, it became his most successful series of Chinese-language films.

"Detective Dee: The Dragon King" and Feng Xiaogang's year-end New Year comedy "Private Customization" are undoubtedly the two trump cards of Huayi Brothers' films in the second half of the year.

Huang Zhongjun, chairman of Huayi Brothers, revealed in June that Huayi's total box office in 2012 was 2.1 billion, and so far this year Huayi Films has received more than 1.7 billion in box office. "Detective Detective Dee: The Dragon King" had a great box office on the first day, driving the momentum with one piece.

There is no doubt that Huayizong will break through the box office record this year, and it will add another important weight to the total box office for the year exceeding the 3 billion mark.

It is worth mentioning that the two movies "Journey to the West: Conquering the Demons" and "Partners in China" starring Cao Jun took in box office of 1.32 billion and 730 million respectively. The box office of his movie alone exceeded 2.05 billion.

mark, which is 350 million better than the movie box office of a listed company in Huayi.

This does not include the just-released "Detective Dee: The Dragon King of the Dragon King" and the new film "We Will See You Again" scheduled for December.

From here we can see how terrifying Cao Jun’s box office appeal is in the mainland film market!

Of course, "Detective Dee: The Dragon King" has wiped out the decline in domestic blockbusters this year since its release, which is inseparable from Huayi Brothers' film industrialization upgrade and comprehensive creation of a blockbuster pattern.

Previously, Huayi Brothers pioneered the TV promotion of movies. The trailer of "Detective Dee: The Dragon King" was repeatedly played during the popular programs "The Voice of China" and "Happy Boys" in September, which attracted the attention of the audience and industry insiders.

One light.

This is the first time that a Chinese film has tried to place advertisements between TV talent shows, but the combination of movies and TV has been successfully used abroad. The "Super Bowl", known as the "American Spring Festival Gala", is the most watched event in the United States.

It is also an important time for Hollywood blockbuster advertising.

Many blockbusters, including "Iron Man 3", "Fast and Furious 6" and "Avengers", have launched special trailers at the "Super Bowl", with average advertising costs as high as 4 million US dollars, and have become popular with good results.

Classic case of movie advertising.

In addition, in Hollywood, movie derivatives have always been an important source of income for film studios. For example, the U.S. movie "Star Wars" trilogy has a total box office revenue of US$1.8 billion, but its derivatives accounted for more than US$4.5 billion.

In recent years, many domestic films have tested the waters of consumer derivatives, but there are still various issues such as product copyright, production volume, and sales volume in the sales process, which are always difficult to solve.

This time, Huayi Brothers used the e-commerce sales platform to cooperate with Taobao to test o2o marketing, becoming the first movie producer to enter Taobao.

In addition to online marketing platforms such as social networking sites, we have successfully tried to achieve online ticketing and derivatives sales. Before and after the official release of "Detective Dee: The Dragon King", movie tickets and peripheral derivatives were simultaneously opened for sale on Taobao.

According to incomplete statistics, sales of mobile power supplies with elements from "Detective Dee: Dragon King of the Dragon King" exceeded one million yuan on the first day they were launched.
