Chapter 617 Premiere of "Twenty Again"

The "Hunger Games" series doesn't have that big a base in China.

Domestic audiences don’t like dystopias.

The main market for this movie is not China, but the North American base and Europe.

These two markets are the home base of dystopia.

"The Hunger Games" was as successful at the box office as "The Twilight Saga", but the former's critical reputation was much better than the latter's.

The British rose Keira Knightley has also been promoted from a literary goddess to a commercial film star with the "Hunger Games" series.

KK is now almost the highest paid British actress.

This is why British actors like Cheng Yuan, his films are really popular!

Lily Collins also got on board last year and starred in "Carol", which will premiere at this year's Cannes Film Festival.

When "Mockingjay (Part 1)" premiered in China, there was no ceremony.

Each market has its own treatment. The "Hunger Games" series relies on North America and Europe. Cheng Lingfeng really doesn't like the 120 million or 200 million box office earned in the Chinese market, and there is not much money left after dividing the accounts.

"Mockingjay (Part 1)" is the last Hollywood blockbuster released during the Lunar New Year this year.

As usual, Cheng Yuan posted a few comments about the video on Weibo.

A netizen asked on his promotional Weibo: "I have always liked Keira Knightley, will she come to China to promote?"

KK is not a well-known actress in China and does not have many fans.

Cheng Yu'an answered the fan's question for the first time: "The third part will not come to China, but the fourth one. I will invite all the starring actors of "The Hunger Games" to come to the fourth part to bring an end to this series."

After receiving Cheng Yuan's confirmation, domestic KK fans were ecstatic.

"Do you really want to call KK and the others to the country?" Liu Yifei lay next to Cheng Yu'an.

Liu Yifei knows that her husband admires British actors and their training system. Among contemporary young British actors, KK is the most fond of them.

"Call over, it's the last one," Cheng Yu'an put down her phone and prepared to go to sleep, "They haven't been to China either."

Cheng Yuan lay down, and Liu Yifei asked him: "If you weren't with me, would you be with Keira Knightley?"

"You're crazy." Cheng Yu'an laughed and scolded, "This is going nowhere."

"That's right, KK is good-looking, has a good temperament, and her acting skills are better than mine. She looks good no matter what. I am a man and I am definitely attracted to her."

"I met her when she was filming "Pride and Prejudice" in 2011. She had a boyfriend at the time. Besides, I don't like foreign girls." Do I have to tell you that I didn't even touch Anne Hathaway, who was at her peak of beauty in 2004?

Does she have one finger?

Liu Yifei didn't dwell on this issue and lay down next to her husband.

"Have you had a hard time these past few months?"

"It's okay. Filming is like this."

"Who told you about work?"

"If you don't talk about working, why am I working so hard?" Cheng Yu'an saw his wife's sultry expression and understood immediately, "You are so heavy now, I don't dare to move around."

"I consulted the doctor. Now that the danger period is over, it's fine. Just be moderate." It wasn't Cheng Yu'an who wanted to do it, but Liu Yifei's arm had already been stretched out.

"Forget it, what if something unexpected happens." Cheng Yuan was also very moved, but he still thought about the health of the two of them.

Liu Yifei patted her husband: "I am a woman and I am not afraid. What do you, a grown man, have to be afraid of?"

"Is it really okay?"

"It's okay. Doctor, can you lie to me? Hurry up."

"Hey hey hey."

"Deadly."

…………

February 19th is the first day of the Lunar New Year, so all the film studios have collectively given up their Valentine’s Day schedule this year.

During this year's Valentine's Day, "Sweetie" was re-released, bringing a wave of memories.

And also on the 14th, the remote premiere of the Spring Festival movie "Twenty Again" was held in Beijing.

Compared with the premiere of "Heavenly Generals" which was released at the same time on the 7th, and "Zhong Kui Conquers the Demons" which premiered on the 4th, the premiere of "Back to Twenty" was held too late.

However, "Twenty Again" will be screened in seven cities across the country on the day of its premiere until midnight on the 19th.

Yuan Yuan has never had a strong presence in the Spring Festival. Over the years, only "33 Days of Love" and "The Ex" have competed in the Spring Festival.

"Twenty Again" is the first of two films produced remotely from China and South Korea. Although the cost is not high, the company attaches great importance to it.

The guests invited to the premiere are also treated according to blockbusters.

Xiao Lu and Wu Xuan, who returned to China, brought their own top traffic to support, Li Yifeng came to the platform, Tangtang, Shi Shi, Hu Ge, Yang Zi, Tian Tian, ​​Han Geng, Deng Chao, Sun Li and other first-line stars were all present.

Lin Yuner and Lin Gengxin also took time off from the crew of "Martial God Zhao Zilong" to come to support.

This red carpet traffic is comparable to that of an ordinary film festival.

Director Xue Xiaolu led the main cast to make the finale: Tong Liya, Gui Yalei, Chen Xiao and Zhu Yawen.

At the premiere, the host asked the male and female protagonists: "The age difference between the two of them should not be much, but they have to play grandma and grandson in the film. Do you have any special thoughts when filming?"

Chen Xiao asked Tong Liya to speak first, and Tong Liya said: "It was difficult for both of us to take on the role at first. I kept saying in my heart that I am a grandma and I am a grandma. As time goes by, it will get much better."

Tong Liya said something serious. This is a family comedy. Don't put so much effort into it. This drama doesn't require great acting skills. Just perform as usual.

Chen Xiao had almost the same meaning, adding at the end: "Later, I had no choice but to be asked by the director to call her grandma on the set."

At the premiere, the film's producer announced the copyright sales status of "Twenty Again" to the outside world: "The film has already sold copyrights to seven countries including the United States, Britain, France, Spain, and Germany at Cannes. In Asia, Vietnam

, the Thai rights have also been sold.”

Why not sell to Japan?

The Japanese copyright is reserved for Tudou Image to make its own version.

The production team did not report specific sales figures, but the film must have recovered its costs through copyright sales.

This kind of family comedy is popular all over the world.

"Twenty Again" is basically Tong Liya's solo show. She sings and dances in it, her character is likeable, and her performance is also comfortable.

After the screening, it received unanimous praise from the audience and the media.

"Thank you very much for liking this movie." Tong Liya and the other creators came on stage to express their thanks.

At the end of the show, a reporter communicated privately: "Tong Liya has been struggling remotely for so long and is finally coming forward. I wonder if this movie will make her popular."

"If this movie is not popular, then there is nothing to worry about. There will be "Legend of the White Fox" next year. This movie is bound to be a big hit, and she will definitely be popular. I heard that Han Yan's new drama "Chinatown" also has her as the heroine, and she will be treated remotely

Almost as good as Liu Yifei..."
