After entering November, the box office results of several movies that Qian Chen paid attention to were released.

"The Return of the Great Sage" grossed 1.2 billion at the box office.

Compared with the 2.4 billion of "Monster Hunt", this movie only achieved half of the revenue of others, and it was really a "complete failure".

However, that's not how the accounts were calculated.

As an animated film, the 2.2 billion for "The Return of the Great Sage" has attracted more attention from the industry than the 2.4 billion for "Monster Hunt".

All film companies with animation business have basically analyzed and studied this movie in the past two months.

On the other hand, "Monster Hunt" also ran into trouble.

I happened to meet Cha Chuan, and this movie was taken care of. Since your box office has reached 2.4 billion, you must pay tax based on the 2.4 billion box office.

The film studio argued that the 2.4 billion box office revenue included a discount.

If you sell ten movie tickets worth 30 yuan each and each one costs 5 yuan, that’s a box office of 300 yuan, but Jiao Chu only sells tickets for 50 yuan.

Not anymore.

All fees must be paid back.

The producer of "Monster Hunt" almost vomited blood and almost got into a fight with the publisher.

Thanks to the really good quality of this movie.

Even if all the water is drained, there is still a box office of more than one billion. If you encounter that kind of thing where most of the water is water, I'm afraid you will have to go bankrupt.

Another film, "Charlotte's Trouble", is simply a surprise.

This 50 million-dollar movie actually grossed 1.62 billion at the box office, leaving "The Return of the Great Sage" behind.

Adapted from a stage play, directed by a newbie.

There are no particularly well-known starring actors. Shen Qi and Ma Li are somewhat famous because they appeared in a Spring Festival Gala sketch, but they are also considered newcomers to the film industry.

There are some big names in there, but unfortunately they are all copycats.

There is no way, the cost of 50 million has to be spent on all aspects, and there is no money to hire big names.

If you use Qian Chen's reputation, you can invite big names for free, but the plot in the movie is a bit nonsensical. If you let big names take part in the movie, you have to consider their mood.

This movie is a group movie.

The starring and supporting roles are all outstanding, especially the role of Yuan Hua, who became popular with the BGM of "One Cut Plum".

In fact, this character was not originally Yin Zheng. Most of the cast of the movie came from the original cast of the stage play. The character in the stage play was Wang Ning.

Yin Zheng got through the director's relationship and won the role.

Fortunately, his acting was really good.

A villain who can write a composition like "My District Chief Dad", his performance is not only not annoying, but also very interesting, becoming one of the biggest highlights of the movie.

As the director described it to Qian Chen, this movie has a lot of laughs.

"Uncle, is Ma Dongmei's family living in room 322 upstairs?"

"Ma Dong what?"

"Ma Dongmei."

"What winter plum?"

"Ma Dongmei!"

"What kind of plum is Ma?"

This magical conversation came from an old man who was sunbathing under Ma Dongmei's building. He was an extra who spent 300 yuan to find someone near the filming location.

It is also the most hilarious scene in the film.

It has attracted countless netizens to imitate it.

Qian Chen and An Qian also imitated this section, but they were a bit unserious when imitating this section.

"Husband, please move."

"What to shout?"

"husband!"

"Old what?"

"husband!"

"What sir?"

"Father, please lie down for me and I will move on my own!"

Compared with "Charlotte", which "only" had a box office of 1.62 billion, but had such a high degree of discussion, Xu Zheng's "Hong Kong Is Not Easy", which cost 1.55 billion, was entrusted with the title of a bad movie.

Netizens said that the biggest failure of the film is the quilt.

It's really hard to tell at a glance. Compared with Wang Shunliu in "It's Not Easy to Go Home for the Spring Festival" and "It's Not Easy to Stay", there is really a big gap, and I don't like it in many ways.

There is no harm without comparison.

Bao Bao'er's acting skills make people laugh. He is acting in the same way, but he makes people feel annoying and noisy.

It is interspersed with some scenes adapted from old Hong Kong films, called "Nostalgia" and "Tribute".

The baggage is all about being deliberately funny, and it's basically the same old routine.

It looks really embarrassing.

However, even if the reputation is not good, it cannot support the high box office. Xu Baldy made a lot of money at the box office, and his company's stock price also increased a lot.

It’s just that it’s difficult to reach Zhongchen’s height.

Zhongchen's current market value is 128 billion. Two consecutive movies worth over one billion, as well as the financial market's enthusiasm for Zhongchen, have increased Zhongchen's market value by 10 billion compared to a month ago.

And Xu Zheng's company is worth tens of billions.

"Hong Kong Is Not Easy" was a box office hit and the stock price was pushed up, but Xu Zheng was not happy and did not kick Qian Chen at all. Wang Shunliu was still proud of the box office success.

It can only be said that the human heart is not as powerful as a snake swallowing an elephant.

He and his wife were already a little stunned.

"Rescue Mr. Me", which was released at the same time, did not have the good luck of these movies. This movie has a huge reputation. Liu Furong's acting is not bad, Liu Huohua is not bad either, and the character Wu Ruofu on whom the story is based is also a good actor.

But it wasn't them who reaped the biggest dividends from this movie.

But Wang Wanyuan.

It's the Wang Wanyuan who plays the eldest brother of the three brothers in "Xiu Chun Knife 1".

This time he was completely on fire.

The kidnapper Huazi played by him has been evaluated by many film critics as one of the most classic villains in the history of Chinese films.

Once anything is related to film history, its weight will be completely different.

He is cunning and has a perverse personality. Even when facing intense interrogation by the police, he is still able to maintain extremely high psychological quality.

If Wang Wanyuan had only performed Hua Zi's cold-bloodedness and cruelty, he would not have been highly praised by everyone.

In the final scene of the movie when he bids farewell to his mother, Wang Wanyuan clearly explains what little blood and emotion Hua Zi has left.

In that farewell scene, Wang Wanyuan first suppressed his guilt and pretended to be relaxed. When his mother said that she regretted not teaching him properly, the kidnapper's last line of defense was completely removed. In the final crying scene, Wang Wanyuan cried sadly but very manly, without any extraneous words.

Express yourself, wipe away your tears, and all the emotions will be in place.

After Qian Chen saw it, he just wanted to ask someone to check it out quickly. Based on his understanding of bad people, he might really be a bad person.

Maybe he's on the run.

This role was actually approached by Qian Chen. At that time, the director wanted to attract investment from Qian Chen.

But Qian Chen refused.

He doesn't have much interest in playing the role of a villain. It's a true role and there is no challenge at all.

It's more interesting to play a good guy.

Sometimes, he will be confused and can't tell whether he is a good person or a bad person.

After Qian Chen refused to act, the director approached Sun Zidian again.

Sun Zidian was unable to get out of the limitations of his role for a long time due to a lack of familiarity. It was only recently when he appeared in "Infinite Challenge" that he got a little better.

Therefore, he doesn't want to play the villain anymore.

He didn't want to act in it even if it might become a classic.

Many actors want to transform by playing villains, such as Louis Koo, because villains are easy to perform well and require less acting skills than normal roles.

Some people play villains, no matter how perverted they are.

You only need to tickle people's teeth, and you will be a successful villain, and it doesn't need to be flesh and blood.

A successful performance can only make the villain appear flesh-and-blood and humane.
