Chapter 435 "Lucky Key"
As of the 12th, the day when "Famous" was released, "Search" had been released for seven days, and the box office had reached 130 million. As a film with a realistic theme and a tragedy, this result can be said to be very good.
Yang Mi's "Wu-Tang: Code of Heaven and Earth" was not so lucky. After taking in 60 million at the box office in the first three days thanks to Yang Mi's appeal, it couldn't move the next week.
People who have watched the movie have expressed that they have been deceived: "Don't go to see it, don't go to see it!"
"I originally thought that Yang Mi would make another treasure-hunting drama after "A League of Thieves", but this movie only proved that Yang Mi can't act at all after leaving the scene of Cheng Yu'an."
"Yang Mi became famous because of "33 Days of Love", and director Liang Baijian couldn't hold her down at all."
"Don't blame all the blame on Mi Mi," some fans complained for her. "When actors are in bad shape, who can guarantee that they will never act in a bad movie in their lifetime? Leave aside Yang Mi's performance.
, look at the story, special effects, lines, and fighting scenes of "The Great Wudang", everything is shoddy. Is this also Yang Mi's fault? If a movie is not made well, isn't it the director who bears the first responsibility?
"
"After the harm to Shaolin, have you finally taken action against Wudang?"
But the film studio is still trying to attract more box office by calling the 1 billion box office queen.
Yang Mi is not stupid, she knows that if Meiya is allowed to continue to suffer like this, her reputation as the "Billion Box Office Queen" will be ruined by the other party in just a few days.
Yang Mi's management team communicated with Meiya and said that Yang Mi would continue to promote "Wu-Tang", but the film crew could no longer use slogans such as "One Billion Box Office Queen."
Meiya agreed with great reluctance, but now she really relied on Yang Mi to sell tickets, so she could only nod her head.
But in fact, if it weren't for the later promotion contract, Yang Mi would have given up the job.
This movie's reputation and box office were completely ruined. A movie like this after a box office of 1 billion is too unpopular with the audience.
Compared with the normal situation of "Search" and the blockbuster "Wu-Tang", "Famous Man" triggered a movie-watching craze as soon as it was released.
Although it is accompanied by huge controversy, the scenes of "Famous Four" are indeed not bad, and the story is not only good-looking, but it is smooth and self-consistent.
The box office on the first day exceeded 20 million, which made Guangguang temporarily relieved.
Why do you say it's temporary, because Ning Hao's "Lucky Key" was released the next day.
Moreover, the remote configuration for this movie is very high: Huang Bo, Yang Yang, Tangtang, and Tong Liya.
If we look at this lineup again in three to five years, it won't be too luxurious at all.
Tangtang was holding her breath, and Yang Mi was fighting openly and secretly. In addition to winning "Resident Evil 5" and "Source Code" in the competition at that time - "Source Code" was won by Yang Mi who quit on her own initiative, but Yang Mi turned around.
So I picked up "A League of Thieves".
In the movie market, she has been at a disadvantage at other times.
Yang Mi's horizons have widened since "33 Days After Love" became popular, and she rarely takes on TV dramas. Tangtang hasn't fully transitioned to the big screen yet, and she still does TV dramas on the side.
She is very happy to see "Wu-Tang" hit the streets.
Is it so easy to be the 1 billion box office queen?
On the other hand, it is different here in "Lucky Key". The golden combination of Huang Bo and Ning Hao is sure to sell tickets.
Coupled with the popularity of Yang Yang, plus the fans of himself and Tong Liya, combined with the schedule situation, Tangtang's team analyzed it and concluded that the film was worth less than 300 million and could not be explained to the company.
The story of "Lucky Key" is quite bloody. A top killer fell in a bathhouse and lost his memory. He exchanged the keys to the dressing room with another sidekick who was also bathing in the bathhouse, and the two exchanged identities.
Then they experience each other's lives.
Although it is a comedy, the core is actually worth digging into and is quite profound.
The idea of swapping identities is very useful. I can use this layer of skin remotely. In October this year, "The Guy in My Body" will be released, in which the gang boss and the soft-footed shrimp student exchange souls.
"The Lucky Key" opens with an assassination scene on a rainy night by the killer played by Huang Bo.
There is no line, Huang Bo's movements are clean and neat.
The audience usually sees Huang Bo as funny, but now they suddenly see him killing people so seriously, and they feel a little uncomfortable.
Huang Bo had a cold face, murderous look and indifference in his eyes, and drove away in his car - BMW was faster than Mercedes-Benz this time and grabbed the sponsorship.
"I really can't get used to Huang Bo not being funny."
As soon as the camera turned, Yang Yang, unkempt and disheveled, began to monologue before hanging himself:
"Forget it, that's it. No money, no friends, no future. Don't live like this. Just leave."
Just as he was about to kick off the stool and finish the work, the landlord's voice came from outside the door urging him to rent.
"...Look what you have done to my house. Please, you are a young man too. Go and clean it up. It stinks so much."
Of course Yang Yang had no money and begged the landlord to give him two days of grace.
After fooling the landlord away, he was about to hang himself for the second time when he realized that he really stinked: "You should die cleanly and take a shower before you die."
The camera came to the bathhouse, and Huang Bo showed up again. After completing his mission, he drove away and got stuck in Yang Yang's neighborhood. He simply found a nearby bathhouse to wash away the blood stains on his body.
By chance, Yang Yang came over to wash his hands and caught a glimpse of Huang Bo's famous brand wallet and Rolex watch put aside.
Rich man, it would be great if I could live the life of a rich man.
Then, Huang Bo stepped on the soap in the bathhouse and fell to his death. His cards also fell at Yang Yang's feet.
Yang Yang originally wanted to return the cards to him, but greed suddenly occurred, so he took off his cards and threw them next to Huang Bo.
Huang Bo passed out and was carried away. Yang Yang took Huang Bo's hand card and opened his locker.
Brand-name wallets, Rolex, and high-end suits are all in it!
"Have a cool day before you die!"
…………
The story of "Lucky Key" is already very neat, but Ning Hao still added a little personal stuff into the film.
Huang Bo replaced Yang Yang and played a small role in the crew.
Ning Hao added something private here: he filmed some bad phenomena on the crew.
For example, you don't have to memorize the lines and just read the numbers when you arrive.
Huang Bo finally went from a bit player to a supporting character with one or two lines. After he finished speaking his lines, the other party directly said,
Huang Bo was totally dumbfounded. The on-site director still said yes.
Then there is the chaos of substitutes. Huang Bo acted on the set all by himself. As a result, the leading role had literary substitutes in literary scenes, martial arts scenes with martial arts substitutes, and nude scenes with nude substitutes. Sometimes, close-ups of hands and feet were required, as well as hand substitutes and feet.
for.
Huang Bo acted with various stunt doubles every day. After the final scene, the main character showed up on the set for two close-ups and then went back. The producer was still arrogant and said respectfully: "Thank you for your hard work."
"So this is what this industry is like." Huang Bo couldn't help but have doubts about the actor industry.
Is this what they mean by art?
Ning Hao took in all the other things, such as showing off as a big name, with one star accompanying seven or eight assistants and a dozen bodyguards.
Tell the audience about this chaos in the entertainment industry in a joking way.
Chapter completed!
