Xia Yu's popularity has always been a topic of discussion, and I have to say that it is a very good thing for filmmakers.
No matter how heavy the movie "Trafficking" is, its reputation and topic are overwhelming - it is pushed every day, and there seems to be "advertisements" everywhere. Friends and relatives around you are discussing it. If you don't go to the cinema, it is basically impossible.
Tao Tang's Weibo post was a shot in the arm. Not only did "Trafficking" make a step forward based on the original box office of more than 600 million, but in a week when the box office should have been gradually sluggish, it achieved more than
400 million box office.
Along with this, other movies have experienced increases of varying magnitudes, boosting the entire Chinese box office in one fell swoop.
Among them, the one with the sharpest increase is "The Market", which has the smallest cost. In its third week, the box office revenue was 500 million, surpassing "The Crime" by 20 million, becoming the box office champion in the third week. Although on the sixth and seventh days
, has shown a phased downward trend and is saturated, but for Zheng Teng, this is already a very unexpected box office result!
Even if it is only a few million in the fourth week, he is already very satisfied!
But there is nothing we can do about it. The film directed by Zheng Teng actually has more depth and is closer to the real life in China;
In order to complete this kind of filming and the story, Zheng Teng usually chooses actors by "using local materials". Most of the actors' acting skills are adjusted very hard by him - their acting skills are limited and their appearance is limited.
In addition, only most people in their thirties and forties, or some young people with precocious minds, can understand the core of the movie and be moved to tears by it. However, it has been possible to achieve this result.
It is rare among rare things!
But the popularity of the movie has already begun. Even if it falls off a cliff in the fourth week, it cannot fall too sharply.
After all, not many people saw this in the past two weeks.
How would you rate Zheng Teng?
Xia Yu said.
"If Dai Chengbi is an ideal literary and artistic film director, then Zheng Teng is a realistic literary and artistic film director."
"One is good at talking about feelings, from a female perspective, and the other is good at talking about life, from a male perspective."
Because of the casting and script, we can only say that Zheng Teng's movies are the highest lower limit for literary and artistic films, but it is difficult to break through the upper limit. After all, a movie really needs a cast of really excellent and professional actors to interpret it!
Of course, it's not that Zheng Teng's casting is bad, but it's too restrictive!
But whether it is Dai Chengbi or Zheng Teng, these two artistic directors have interpreted the essence of artistic films from different directions.
Mr. Zhuang said this.
"Both of them are half a bucket of water. Individually they are far behind me, but together they are far behind me!"
"I hope they can cooperate one day in the future?"
"Better Years" also earned 1.8 billion.
all in all.
This month’s box office has been revitalized!
"Trafficking" has a box office of 1.1 billion in its three weeks of release, exceeding expectations and becoming the third movie this year to have a box office of over 1 billion!
As for awards, "The Market" was very well shot, but as for the actors, Zheng Teng hired amateurs. His acting skills were photographed by Zheng Teng, and they were trained very well. Basically, they all have a bit of a true character, but they are far from winning awards.
There is still a long way to go.
No matter how much they act in their true colors, encounter the camera, and encounter some plots, these amateurs who may not necessarily have talent and have no acting experience cannot do it in front of the camera, with complete mentality and actions, free and self-consistent.
This is also a kind of ego and paranoia of literary and artistic film directors, right? They all have a stubborn temper.
Dai Chengbi is interested in plot and acting skills. Zheng Teng is interested in actors. He just doesn't like to use professional actors. One is expensive and he can't afford to pay for it. The other professional actors have their own set of performances and ways of understanding the characters.
Zheng Teng's movies have a stronger sense of control. He prefers that the whole movie from beginning to end is only his voice and his soul - the actors and characters. It doesn't matter whether they have that flavor or not, he gives it to them.
This also led to the fact that not only Zheng Teng, but almost everyone in the industry also had a common "voice" that they were unwilling to cooperate with Zheng Teng.
"I appreciate his talent, but I also reject his talent!"
At the same time, the original book of "Twilight Series", the Bankrupt Sisters, contacted Stic Publishing House, one of the largest teaching aid publishing houses in the United States with a history of 95 years, through the channels of Mindli Pictures.
.
At present, the original work and revised manuscript of "Twilight·1" have been sent.
The review will be completed within about seven working days, and then the publishing contract and details can be discussed.
Mindley Pictures, Old Chet and Amanda also just finished reading the original revision of "Twilight 1" and sighed again. "Xia came prepared. It's okay if her fire can't be burned. Once
If it burns, no water will be able to put it out!"
Amanda looked at old Chet and took over his words, "Because this fire burns in people's hearts?"
Old Chet smiled, "You are indeed as smart as your mother - that idiot Bruce must not be able to hear it!"
In response to Old Chet's words, Amanda lowered her eyes and did not answer Old Chet's words, but said, "If the fire of the bankrupt sisters really catches fire, our Mindli will also be one of the biggest winners.
one."
Old Chet nodded, as for what will become of Hollywood film and television? He can't control it - the film and television business empire that can survive is the real winner. For the sake of Hollywood, give up rebirth and wait to be annexed by Victoria?
Old Chet didn't have that great a sense of honor.
He only wanted the Mindli Hanks Empire to last for a hundred years, at least to maintain its glory while he was alive.
Regarding the original "Twilight Series", if in the eyes of Ashley and others, what they see is "story", then in the eyes of old Chet, what he sees is "commercial value", but in fact he
I'm quite old, but I have no feeling for this kind of reading material.
As for Amanda, I feel almost the same as Gu Zhao - this movie doesn't have a high core.
But compared to Gu Zhao, she is more concerned about the market that "Twilight Series" can reopen for Mindelli Pictures!
Finished handling all the domestic work, news, and publishing contacts for the original work of "Twilight 1".
For "Twilight Series", the selection of filming location has to enter the final stage.
There are many choices for major filming locations.
Of course it can't be in the real Forks town in Washington state as called in the original work.
The previous year, regarding the filming locations of "Twilight", Ashley also selected some of the locations in her mind based on the multiple locations provided by Xia Yu - she first went to "Forks", which is in Washington.
In the northern part of the state, it rains all year round and is a town shrouded in fog!
The small town of Forks is really beautiful, with a primitive beauty and mysterious beauty, but it is not suitable for filming "Twilight".
In the novel and movie "Twilight", cloudy and rainy weather is required, but in actual shooting, it is best not to have so many, which will actually affect the shooting. Most of the shooting is only cloudy. Therefore, the real town of Forks was passed away.
Already.
The shooting time is also particular, and the best time for the first part is from February to April.
And throughout the year, the months of May, Sixth, July and August are completely unsuitable.
Talking about the location, the location of the first "Twilight" was finally determined to be Portland, Oregon after Ashley personally visited it. The location, this time, the Bankrupt Sisters did not move.
After communication, Mindli Film and Television arranged for specialized personnel to discuss the matter - compared to the fledgling bankrupt sisters, Mindley, who is already an industry empire, can do this kind of thing in a more complete and appropriate manner.
As for the special effects studio needed in the later stage, etc., we have also contacted Mindli Pictures.
Just one sentence from Amanda.
"As long as there is need, the entire Mindli Pictures will serve the "Twilight Series"!"
Mindley Pictures is worthy of being a Hollywood film and television empire. In just three days, a series of filming locations listed by the bankrupt sisters have been successfully signed. Contracts with the local area or other contracts have also been handed over to Xia Yu.
.
As for some architectural modifications, we can only do our best. For example, the forest villa where the Cullen family lived in the "Twilight Series" fell on Mount St. Helens in Portland. The construction of the villa began as soon as the work arrangements were made.
Already.
As for the construction drawings, in order to be able to accurately restore them and have the flavor of the original work and script.
Xia Yu also specially took a course on architecture. Fortunately, the "literary course" was all-encompassing, including architectural aesthetics, sculpture, and various painting arts. In the end, the construction drawings were successfully delivered to Mindli Pictures
In hand!
At the same time, there is also "Forks Town" that needs to be renovated and renovated.
Of course, this refers to the filming location, not the actual Fox.
For example: 1. The villa or house where the heroine Isabella Swann and her family live, right? 2. Jacob Blake’s family, as well as the entire La Push Reservation, Quileute people, and werewolves.
territory, etc.
For the arrangement of some architectural scenes in these areas, Xia Yu also drew an architectural drawing based on the original work and movie, and handed it over to the professional construction team arranged by Mindli Films.
Because filming will start in February, Mindli Pictures has arranged two construction teams.
After all, the labor force in Europe and the United States is very different in China. As long as you pay enough overtime pay in China, I can finish a three-month project for you in one month or even half a month. Overseas, even if you are paid overtime pay, you will still have to work overtime.
, but it’s still time to fish.
Set your commuting time and get it done for you leisurely.
For this kind of thing, no one can do anything but hire an extra team, then rotate them and try to complete it half a month in advance.
Even though these architectural drawings were arranged and the construction and construction teams were in place, Xia Yu still followed them to the site.
Xia Yu went with Zhuang Ling, while Ashley stayed in Los Angeles to cooperate with Mindelli Films in selecting actors.
At the same time, James also returned to Los Angeles after 43 days of filming in New York.
This TV series invested by Mindli only has twelve episodes. The shooting in New York has been completed. The remaining special effects and green screens will be filmed in the studio of Mindli Pictures - just right.
, I’m back, and I can work with Ashley on casting.
Unfortunately, Meng Dong still needs to complete her last few days of work arrangements at Mingde Films.
After not seeing each other for more than a month, the little girl turned white and lost weight. She looked better than before, but Xia Yu only felt that she had suffered.
He hugged me heartbrokenly, "If you can survive in such a high-calorie environment like the beautiful country and still lose weight, I'll nurse it back to you later!"
Meng Dong shook his head violently, "No, no, I did it on purpose. I wanted to lose weight, but I never succeeded with you!"
"It's easy to lose weight now. I'm 1.6 meters and 101 pounds. Yu Bao, please don't embarrass me..."
Finally, holding the little ancestor Yuanbao in his arms, he and Zhuang Ling got on the flight to Portland.
…
It seems that in this R-level world, apart from the vastly different phenomena in movies and TV shows over the past few decades or hundreds of years, most things in reality, such as some local buildings and even trees, seem to be mirror projections of the L-level parallel world?
No, it’s a real thing and a projection.
Isabella Swan's father's house is a small villa-style manor found locally.
It is at least 90% similar to the filming location chosen for the L-level parallel world Portland. Especially the house Mindly Pictures found according to Xia Yu's direction. It is a house waiting to be renovated and has a history of about 20 or 30 years.
The old house was found.
The outline of the house, and even the few plane trees at the door, if not for the season, still have green and yellow leaves, and even the branches are very similar. Maybe it is because I have experienced it once, I haven’t had time to show this house.
In front of the renovated and distressed house, Xia Yu actually felt a sense of being in another world. This house seemed like she had lived in it in her previous life.
There is no doubt that this is the sequelae of the "immersive experience script", which is slightly stronger than before.
It seems that since the achievement of the third stage of achievement, in addition to the gradual improvement of various physical qualities, this negative impact defense system, which was originally automatically cleared, is also closing little by little as the achievement is turned on.
In fact, from the first paragraph to the second paragraph, there are already signs!
When filming "The Prison", it was okay and completely closed, but by the time of "Jinling Festival", there was already a vague feeling. When "Healing" was filmed, this immersive experience had already left a slight mark!
So after filming "Cure", not only Yu Junhao but also Xia Yu deliberately kept a distance from him.
It wasn't until this emotion was completely released and controlled that she became much calmer.
Perhaps it was for the purpose of adapting in advance to returning to the fast-traveling journey. In Yuanbao's tone before he lost his memory, he said, "You have turned on protection since you took on the first mission, and you turned it on on the second, and on the third, and on the fourth
I can't activate the novice protection, are you feeling uncomfortable?"
Fortunately, this kind of unblocking is more humane, and it closes it down little by little, giving her a space to relax and adapt. If all of them came up at once when the achievement was achieved, Xia Yu would probably be down immediately.
!
Xia Yu had reason to be suspicious.
By the fourth stage, the sequelae of this immersive experience may be doubled, and the protection mode may even be turned off directly.
There may be more to unlock!
That is, the question is which of the tens of billions in box office and the five major achievements will become the unlockable item for the fourth achievement first.
