Chapter 487 The Dragon Crossing the River and the Local Snake
After that, Fang Yi sent Han Sanping back to China Film Academy.
Did the former head come to him to see real-life examples of film industrialization, or to reconnect with him and build a relationship... It was more likely a combination of both. These things were very complicated, and Fang Yi chose not to think deeply about them.
The semi-retirement of his eldest brother Cheng and the end of Han Sanping made him feel that a series of big names he was familiar with in the past were rapidly retreating in the new version and becoming a thing of the past. And he gradually became a candidate for the leadership in the eyes of others, a national superstar in the latest era.
.
After filming was completed, many friends were concerned about the release date of "Zodiac" and hoped that it would not collide head-on. In mid-May, the film studio released a preview trailer: a Mercedes-Benz AMG swerved, quickly broke through the window, and flew from a building to the
Another building. In the video, Fang Yi was gasping for air, and the veins in his neck could clearly be seen bursting out. The camera moved down, and his forearm muscles were bulging, and he was holding on to the steering wheel.
The trailer was very popular. The new issue of China Screen Magazine selected "Zodiac" as the most watched commercial film in 2012. It was evaluated as: "the first and possibly the last time two superstars of the era join forces." It's a big deal.
This village doesn't have the meaning of this store.
In addition, Yinghuang still used the same old method of publicizing how Big Brother Cheng was injured and couldn't get out of the line of fire. He was filming with real people and risking his life without a stand-in, which made the audience think that Fang Yi was also risking his life. Swish Fox Scarf wildly posted a press release saying that Fang Yi "dare to risk his life even more". In Fang Yi
After I denied it, I changed the subject and began to praise him for his understanding of advanced special effects and his ability to be flexible. He is a role model for the new generation of filmmakers to use their brains to do things.
Xinlang Scarf said, "Young actor Fang Yi abandoned tradition and was unwilling to practice it personally."
Later, the film crew released a fast-forward video of the construction of the video studio, showing how an empty giant studio was built into a fake base for South American jungle cultural relics within a month - these trailers are a kind of commercial warm-up in advance.
Advertisements, for example, are updated regularly half a year in advance, or even a year or two, to whet the audience's appetite... However, there are currently relatively few such methods in mainland China, so some of Fang Yi's acquaintances thought that "Twelve Zodiac Signs" was about to be released, and they were frightened.
Half dead.
There is a big reason for Han Sanping's timely resignation, that is, Hollywood lost the lawsuit and won the case. One month before Valentine's Day in 2012, the agreement reached by China and the United States on the memorandum of understanding on resolving WTO film-related issues came into effect. The agreement determined that the mainland will be in 20 years every year.
On the basis of the quota for some imported films, an additional 14 high-tech American films with imported films will be added, and the box office share ratio will also increase from the previous 17.5% to 25%.
China Film Group has no excuses to delay this time. After all, the boss Han Sanping is about to step down. His pants have been ripped out and he can count the hairs. The impact of the fourteen new American blockbusters on the existing market is obvious: 12
In the first quarter of this year, because it includes the Spring Festival, Valentine’s Day and other local festivals, mainland films have been dominant in previous years, but this year’s share was 47.3%, lower than the half-qualified line.
This is expected to be the strongest quarter for domestic films.
In addition, the total box office growth rate of the movie theater market dropped sharply in the first quarter, far behind the construction speed of theater chains. This means that a considerable number of viewers are making up their mind to be park rats, waiting for other Hollywood blockbusters to contribute to the box office of these movies. Previously,
No matter what movie I encounter, I will never pay for it.
Some studies show that light moviegoers account for the largest share of people who watch 1-5 movies every year, followed by 6-15 movies, which brings the average number of moviegoers nationwide to 2.95. Obviously, the market for domestic movies will become even narrower from now on.
, and "Twelve Zodiac", a movie that represents the level of domestic industrialization, is very likely to be under the instructions of Shangfeng, desperately extending the screening period, and producing a acceptable total number of single films.
This further worsens the living space of other domestic films.
The result of the fight between the dragon crossing the river and the local snake is not that both sides suffer losses, but that the two of them step down from the stage to suck the blood of two younger brothers, and then continue to fight... In the end, neither of them can do anything to the other, but all the younger brothers are drained.
Already.
In late May, Fang Yi was in the studio wearing a military uniform to shoot a trailer, and his agent Zhen Jie was also present. Zhen Jie answered the phone many times, and each time she said the same thing:
"Release date? I don't know... I really don't know. I've never been qualified to manage movies. I'm just an agent."
Then he hung up the phone and gave Fang Yi a rather resentful look: "Did you change your number? Now you are asking me."
Fang Yi did not have any moral burden: "Too many people come to me for information."
Sister Zhen: "It is said that your film will be released on National Day? Because it has been like this in the past few years, and this can be considered half of the main theme. It is just right to be released on National Day."
Fang Yi shook his head: "It's impossible to make it in time anyway."
"next year?"
"I can't tell you because I don't know. William from Base said it can be completed in December...but it's impossible to release it in theaters right after it's completed."
Sister Zhen shrugged, "That's good. I feel more confident if I say I don't know, because you don't know either."
The military uniform photo taken by Fang Yi was invited to be a cover photo of "Fashion Bashar" magazine. This magazine is a fashion magazine for women. In the past, it has never selected any single male star for the cover of the magazine. However, after the rise of the Internet media era, the decline of paper media,
"Basha" magazine is no exception. Editor-in-chief Su Mang decided to reform and vigorously invite top male stars to serve as cover models to pursue a fan economy.
Fang Yi has collaborated with Su Mang several times. The most recent time was last year when they were shooting Burberry trench coats. At that time, Chen Kaige was also photographed together.
Su Mang clapped his hands and said: "Actually, our editorial team has discussed what style we want... This is controversial, because we are a female-oriented magazine after all, so we think that the image of handsome boys is not easy to be offensive, but, I want
But, Fang Yi is different, I think his popularity and reputation are enough to make some bolder attempts."
"So you ordered military uniforms?" Sister Zhen asked.
"No, it's the style of the agent series, not the military uniform in the traditional sense. 'Military uniform' is just a word I use to make it easier for you to understand. It's actually very different."
——Xia Yi’s dress is indeed quite special right now. The buttons of his uniform jacket can only be fastened to his chest. His pants have a strong curve but stick to his thighs. He has combat camouflage stripes on his face, but they are in different colors.
The lipstick was applied on it.
Coupled with his clear and bored eyes, he seemed to be asking at any time if he could stop?
Aha, that’s the way you look at trash, Modo Modo!
Su Mang couldn't help but said: "We hesitated about the style, but we didn't hesitate for a second about the person."
Magazine shooting sometimes takes longer than a movie, because you have to make repeated selections and communicate with the model and the magazine team at the same time. After taking a few sets of photos and taking a break, someone handed Fang Yishui.
"Teacher Fang, drink water."
Fang Yi never drinks any water from outside, and if the water he has opened personally disappears from sight for even a second, he will never drink it again.
This person doesn't quite understand his habits, yet he's actually on the real sister team.
Taking a closer look, it was Reba, the nominal junior sister, with her head lowered, her mouth pursed, and her brows furrowed, as if facing a formidable enemy.
Fang Yi was a little angry: "Don't you need to study now?"
Junior sister immediately stuttered: "I, I..."
Sister Zhen made up for this junior sister: "I asked her to come and let her see the top magazine shooting process in the industry. I think it will be of great help to her. After all, her acting channels are relatively narrow. She may need it more than you.
Fashion route.”
Fang Yi's tone was a little more relaxed: "It's enough to watch it once or twice. It's actually very boring. If you are interested, you can ask the real sister to take you to Liu Yifei to take hard photos and see how the female artist takes them."
The junior sister did not answer.
Fang Yi came a little closer and asked, "Can you hear me clearly?"
The junior sister's face turned red, like a giant ragdoll cat being held up by the back of the neck, waiting for trial. She seemed to faint in the next second.
Sister Zhen tried to make up for her again: "Maybe you mentioned Liu Yifei, and she was a little excited... Oh, what, she is a fan of Liu Yifei. Yes, she is a fan of Liu Yifei!"
The real sister patted her chest.
And she soon remembered this incident, nodded wildly, but still didn't dare to speak. Every time she nodded, she revealed a sliver of scalp skin that had been combed away from both sides of her hair. The scene was a bit funny.
Fang Yi smiled and returned the water to her, "Go get an unopened bottle of water."
She carefully held the bottle of water that Fang Yi had touched in her arms, carelessly stuffed it into her travel bag and put it away.
