After "Embroidered Spring Knife" was released, Wu Hu only took time the next day to run a one-day road show in several theaters in Beijing with the leading actors, and then appeared on a talk show alone.
The box office on the first day was more than 15 million, which made Lu Yang slightly relieved. Although the film schedule rate was about 40%, the box office was still quite satisfactory.
It shouldn't be difficult to recover the cost.
Moreover, they are released on a Tuesday, and the box office performance on weekdays is enough to reassure the creative staff and director Lu Yang.
What's more, "The Knife" still competes with "Transformers 3" for the box office. Although "Transformers 3" has been in theaters for more than ten days, its box office results are still impressive.
That is to say, most of the investment in "Spring Knife" is film production, so that they can squeeze out 40% of the filming rate for it. What worries them is that "Harry Potter, a blockbuster, will soon be released in major theaters."
The film schedule rate of "Knife" is estimated to be directly squeezed to the remaining 20%.
Sure enough, when "Harry Potter" was released on the 4th, the film schedule of "The Knife" dropped from 40% two days ago to 2.5%, and the daily box office champion was also handed over.
However, at this time, "Xiu Chun Knife" had already won more than 28 million yuan at the box office.
On the 4th, "Xiu Chun Knife" took over 8 million at the box office.
Sister Da Cai went to Wu Hu's company and chatted with Wu Hu about his new drama. Although she had ideas for the movie, she also knew that Sugar Man was much worse in this aspect.
Unfortunately, Wu Hu talked to Mina about the incident afterwards and said that there was a drama from Sugar Man and he wanted to cast her as the supporting female lead. Among the three female leads, she could only be ranked third.
Although she is said to be a heroine, she is actually a supporting actress, but when said to be a supporting actress, she can actually be regarded as one of the heroines. In another time and space, Mina made her debut with this drama, partnering with Lao Hu, and reached the peak of her career. But because of her good looks,
His business ability is average, and his eye for picking boyfriends is even more surprising, so his popularity fluctuates, unlike Yahanako and the others, who have always been top-notch.
Mina immediately refused after hearing this. She is now waiting for Wu Hu to partner with her as the male and female lead! Anyway, she now owns New World Media shares. Although it is not much, she can be regarded as one of the shareholders. Last year, she received hundreds of thousands of dividends.
, for a student, life is really easy.
As for food, clothing, housing and transportation, Wu Hu also helped her solve it.
Therefore, Wu Hu had nothing to say about Sister Da Cai's proposal. He just asked her to send artists from the company to try out the show. Whether it succeeds or not, we will talk about it at that time.
Let’s forget about exchanging resources!
What's more, when he was filming this drama, the female lead had already been cast, and the second female lead had been cast. Wu Hu was ready to return the strawberry to Sister Strawberry, after all, he had already eaten the strawberry.
Although Sister Strawberry doesn't want him to take responsibility and even gets happiness from it, as a man, he can't show that he is okay at all! He is already so well-behaved, sensible and considerate, so it is appropriate to give him some sweetness.
Sister Da Cai was quite sorry about this, but she couldn't say anything more. She could only send the company's artists over to try her luck.
On the 5th, Wu Hu went on a talk show, and the host who interviewed him was Yang Lan.
This is a beautiful woman who is fashionable, elegant and intellectual, but Wu Hu actually doesn't like her very much because she always gives people an indescribable sense of exquisiteness and superiority.
Many people regard her as a representative of independent women, but Wu Hu just can't like her.
The reason why I went on her show was just to promote the movie "Xiu Chun Knife" and her upcoming new album.
Although the MV for his new album has not been filmed yet, Warner has already released news that Wu Hu's new album will be released to everyone in October.
Many singers who received this news were secretly rejoicing. Some were directly considering whether to postpone the release of their new album. Others were prepared to watch the excitement.
But everyone is paying attention to the stars who will release albums in October.
Then many people were surprised to find that Wu Hu's new album actually coincided with La Zhiying's new album. After many people discovered this, they were ready to watch the show.
Some people think that Wu Hu is a little unwise. After all, this album of Spicy Eagle has been prepared for a long time. It is a new album after many years.
album.
As for Wu Hu's album? It was only less than a year apart.
When two strong men fight, there are bound to be injuries. Isn't Fat Tiger afraid of overturning?
But some people think that Wu Hu did this on purpose. The purpose was to avenge the original attack and to take the opportunity to embarrass the spicy eagle.
There was even news on the Internet that after learning the news, Spicy Eagle smashed his cell phone. He was obviously furious.
After all, with Wu Hu's current popularity, it is almost certain that his album sales will exceed that of Spicy Eagle. No matter how awesome Spicy Eagle is, he can't compare with Wu Hu in Europe and the United States.
When Wu Hu participated in this talk show, the host Yang Lan asked him directly whether he was doing this to deliberately target the spicy eagle as netizens said?
After all, when La Zieying served as the chairman of the annual music festival, he only gave Wu Hu a Newcomer Award, which felt a bit like bullying.
In response to this, Wu Hu looked confused, "Is her new album also released in October? That's a coincidence! In fact, I didn't think about it that much. When I decided to release this new album, I just asked
I asked Brother Lung, and Brother Lung said he would release his new album in November, so I had to advance it. As for the other people, I really didn’t ask.”
"Why don't you ask?"
Wu Hu shrugged and spread his hands, "There are so many singers in the music industry, I can't just avoid them one by one! If I really want to do that, then I'd better not release a new album."
"It seems you are very confident about your new album!"
"Confidence is naturally there, just like every time we take an exam, we are full of confidence before the exam. As for how we did in the exam, we will only know when the test papers are handed out."
On this topic, the two started chatting.
Yang Lan asked him, "What do you like to do after work?"
"Let's play boxing, practice the piano, write songs, and write stories!"
This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! "Don't you like reading?"
"Of course I can also read books, but there is no fixed genre. From classics to popular books, I have no problem, as long as it brings me interest."
"In other words, you don't have a particular favorite author?"
"No! As long as it brings me an interesting feeling, I like it. I am a very mixed-loving person and like many things..."
The two chatted and finally talked about movies.
Yang Lan originally wanted to recite quotations from famous writers to test Wu Hu and embarrass him, but as they chatted, she discovered that Wu Hu's knowledge was beyond his expectation.
Moreover, the number of things she knows is also beyond her imagination. She even has certain attainments in calligraphy and painting.
She was a little lucky that she didn't try to do whatever she wanted, otherwise she would have made a fool of herself.
After the talk show, Wu Hu stopped caring about "Xiu Chun Knife". After all, he was not the starring role. Although he also participated in this drama and invested in it, the majority of the investment was from a film company after all. And he was the only one.
It’s really hard for the supporting characters to steal the limelight from the protagonist.
In addition, he still has many things to do.
After the show was aired, many netizens couldn't help laughing when they saw Wu Hu's explanation, "You don't really think that Fat Tiger doesn't know that Spicy Eagle will release an album in October, right?"
"Whether you believe it or not, I believe it anyway!"
"I can only say that Fat Tiger did a great job! I have long been dissatisfied with the spicy eagle. Brother Dao was forced to withdraw from the picture before, but now he wants to do it again. Fortunately, Fat Tiger went straight out of Asia.
Entering Europe and the United States, the spicy eagle wants to repeat his old tricks but can't find a way..."
After a period of time, Wu Hu was recording the "Stars," original sound album. The album included a total of ten songs, including the theme song "You Are My Destiny."
Among the ten songs, three are duets between men and women, sung by Wu Hu and Yahuazi, and the remaining seven are three by Wu Hu solo and four by Yahuazi.
Although Wu Hu occasionally secretly blessed her with her singing skills once or twice, Yahuazi still seemed to be struggling, so the recording speed was very slow.
In view of this, Wu Hu could only let Yahuazi
He practiced more in private, and he started filming several MVs for his new album.
The MV for "seeyouagain" is a true story, but the story needs to be processed and beautified.
The story is about the process of hearing that a friend passed away in a car accident, going back to express condolences, and then feeling heartbroken and composing this song.
The MV was shot directly in Hengzhen, where it was very easy to set up locations and hire actors to star in the scenes.
Even after the news came out that Wu Hu was going to shoot a music video, there were not many 18th-tier actors who came to look for opportunities.
For "NUMB", Wu Hu did not plan to shoot a MV, so he left it to everyone's own imagination, lest people think he was trying to make a racial slur.
For "Saysothing", Wu Hu originally wanted to find a female singer to collaborate with, but after thinking about it, he finally gave up to avoid Yahuazi and the others being jealous.
As for the MV, it shows Wu Hu sitting in front of the piano and playing, plus some scenes of a man and a woman breaking up. The heroine who stars in this MV is Mina.
Mina felt that this song was actually quite suitable for the situation between her and Wu Hu. They seemed to be in this awkward state, and as long as Wu Hu tried to persuade her to stay, she might just give in.
Although Wu Hu's feelings were like a quagmire, she had already fallen into it. All she needed was a reason to stay in it comfortably, and she would give in.
But Wu Hu never said anything. She actually wanted to say something to Wu Hu, "Aren't you going to keep me? I will embark on a road separate from you. Even though, I will look back as soon as you wave your hand, even though, I always
Follow, by your side..."
Therefore, when Mina appeared in this MV, her expression was quite on point.
People who don't know it would think that Mina's acting talent is amazing!
As for the song "Dreat Possible", Wu Hu originally wanted to shoot the original version of the MV, but thinking that he was the spokesperson of Long Factory, he got lazy and copied the MV of "My Dream" and continued
A wave of advertising for Long Factory.
The song "MySongsKnohatYouDidInTheDark" directly edited the scenes of Wu Hu's singing during the recording, and also cut some scenes of the audience's reaction at the Milk Cha Lun concert to make up the number. It feels a bit perfunctory.
However, Wu Hu feels that it doesn’t matter whether this song has a MV or not. As long as the melody plays, the blood will boil.
Among the five songs about planting flowers, "Dust in Fireworks" and "Love is Difficult" Wu Hu did not prepare to shoot a MV. "Your Answer" was edited using scenes from the "Celebrity Wilderness Survival Show" that he had participated in before.
Video, acting as MV.
After all, the theme of this song is upward, persistence, and the dawn can always dispel the darkness.
In that program, everyone persisted and competed for victory, which was actually quite suitable. When the program team of "Celebrity Wilderness Survival Show" learned the news, they were very happy to provide Wu Hu with all the conveniences and let Wu Hu choose.
material.
As for the song "Heaven and Earth Dragon Scale", the original MV is pretty good, so just copy it.
On the other hand, filming "Chi Ling" required a lot of effort.
Wu Hu directly called Men Qing, the assistant director of ‘Stars’, to help.
Being able to shoot Wu Hu's MV, Men Qing would naturally not refuse.
From mid-August to late August, Wu Hu returned to the capital and attended Xia Yahuazi’s birthday party. Although Yahuazi was his girlfriend, many people did not know it. So Wu Hu only attended her birthday party.
I didn't personally organize the birthday party for her.
The gift from Wu Hu is a bottle of women's perfume produced by the system, which can increase your charm.
Yahuazi's birthday party is over, and Wu Hu returns to Hengzhen again to shoot the MV.
By the end of August, Wu Hu had finished the entire album's MV.
He even disguised himself as a woman and took on the role of Huadan in "Chi Ling".
This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! However, this does not feel inconsistent. After all, the Hua Dan in the past were men, such as the famous master Mei Lanfang.
It’s just that Wu Hu, a fierce man, actually has such a tender side.
It shocked everyone.
Even Peking Opera master Li Shengsu, who was invited by Wu Hu to serve as Peking Opera director, was full of praise for Wu Hu's performance and asked Wu Hu who he studied under.
Teacher Li studied under Master Mei Baojiu and is regarded as the disciple of Master Mei Lanfang.
Wu Hu couldn’t say that he was a master of the system. He could only say that he learned casually. As a result, Teacher Li kept lamenting that Wu Hu had wasted his talent. He had the ability to learn casually. If he had started learning at a young age, what achievements would he have made?
?
Unfortunately, these can only be said. Wu Hu's talent has been coveted by countless people. Everyone who has come into contact with him will inevitably have this kind of emotion.
When Wu Hu finished filming the entire album's MV, "Xiu Chun Dao" was also finished.
Under the attack of "Harry Potter" and "Transformers 3", "Spring Knife" struggled to survive in the cracks, but it still took in a box office of about 130 million.
Wu Hu dare not say that "Xiu Chun Knife" in this time and space has such achievements and has nearly 40 million more box office than in another time and space. It is all due to him.
But he feels that he can definitely take most of the credit. After all, without his participation, the popularity of this movie would not be so high, the publicity would not be so big, and it would be impossible to win the film under the attack of these two blockbusters.
to a box office of more than 130 million.
Everyone is quite satisfied with this result. Although the film did not make much money for investors like them at the box office, at least it did not lose money.
All the money you make from selling overseas copyrights is a net profit.
In view of this, director Lu Yang also had the motivation and confidence to start preparing for the sequel of this drama. Zhongying had already made an agreement with Lu Yang before Wu Hu suggested it.
After all, under the attack of two blockbusters, there is still such a result. So as long as the sequel finds a good schedule, can the sequel be worse than this movie?
Under the deception of the mountain eagle, Lu Yang confidently went to find his partner Chen Su. However, Chen Su made Lu Yang realize the reality with one sentence, "Do you think the second part can really make money?"
?Do you know how much Mr. Wu’s current salary is?”
Wu Hu's current salary starts at 20 million, which is a friendly price. Even Universe Dan's salary starts at 20 million! Wu Hu's salary will only be more expensive.
This is also the reason why Wu Hu is so famous, but there are not many film invitations.
It’s not that everyone doesn’t covet his popularity, it’s just that they can’t afford it!
Just like many people were reluctant to hire International Chapter because her salary was expensive.
With Wu Hu's current international reputation, five million dollars is considered a friendly price.
And five million knives means more than 30 million kinds of flower coins.
'Xingxing, for this drama, Wu Hu's salary for himself was 30 million, plus Yahuazi's 15 million, the two people's salary directly accounted for nearly half of the investment.
If Wu Hu continues to be invited to the sequel of "Xiu Chun Knife", then Wu Hu's remuneration will naturally not be given away for less than one million as it was at the beginning.
Because Wu Hu was only a little popular at that time and had no works, so his salary was very low. But now, is it possible for him to get such a low salary?
Even if Wu Hu is not the starring role, the salary of 20 million yuan is probably not enough.
As a result, the cost of the sequel will definitely exceed 100 million, and the box office will need to be at least 300 million to recover the cost.
Can the sequel to "Xiu Chun Knife" be of this size?
But without Wu Hu's participation, would the audience still buy it? This time the movie's box office can successfully exceed 100 million, Wu Hu's contribution must account for at least half of it!
If Wu Hu’s role was written out...
Lu Yang thought about it, his eyes couldn't help but shine, and he expressed his thoughts directly to Chen Su, "What if Mr. Wu continues to make guest appearances? If we can't afford Mr. Wu, we can invite Liu Qianqian! We can even invite Tietie to follow.
Mina..."
Others don't know the specific relationship between Yahuazi and Wu Hu, but Lu Yang knows something about it, after all, both of them are his bosses.
If you can't handle Fat Tiger, you can't handle Yahuazi either.
Chen Su was stunned for a moment, and finally said: "Then you'd better make it clear to Mr. Wu. In addition, you have to tell Mr. Wu
Zhongying will explain the situation. If Zhongying is willing to spend a lot of money to continue inviting Mr. Wu, the role of Ding Xiu can be increased."
Wu Hu came back from Hengzhen after shooting the MV, handed the MV master tape to Warner, and went home to meet the three beauties. Not long after dinner, he received a call from Lu Yang.
Wu Hu then remembered that the celebration banquet for "Xiu Chun Knife" had not been held yet.
Originally, Lu Yang thought it was unnecessary. After all, the box office results were not satisfactory, and he was too embarrassed to hold a celebration banquet.
But the film industry felt that it was a good meal. Although they didn't make much money at the box office, they still had income from exporting copyrights, so they couldn't let the workers down.
Wu Hu also felt that it would be better to do it. He would not be short of the three melons and two dates, and at the same time, it could increase the reputation of New World Media.
After receiving a call from Lu Yang, Wu Hu spoke to the three of them and asked them if they wanted to go together. Neither Yahuazi nor Tietie was interested in such an occasion, but Mina was a little eager to try, but Wu Hu
Without looking at her, he stood up and went out.
"Brother Hu, I am willing to go!" Mina shouted directly.
But Wu Hu waved his hand, "Little girl, that kind of occasion is not suitable for me, so you should stay at home! You are about to start school, don't you know?"
Yahuazi hugged the little black cat and smiled at Mina, "Elementary school girl, it's a good start to school!"
Mina rolled her eyes at her, "Don't be complacent. Next summer, I will be able to film with Brother Hu. Brother Hu promised to make me the heroine."
Looking at Mina's proud little face, Yahuazi was a little angry, but Wu Hu had already agreed to go out before he got close to her. She couldn't make up her mind for Wu Hu to refuse Mina, lest Wu Hu
The tiger's face is not good-looking, and eventually the relationship becomes tense.
When Tie Tie saw Yahuazi's little mouth puffed up, he pulled Mina to stand up, "Okay, don't make trouble with Sister Qianqian. Since Brother Hu is gone, let's retreat! See you later, Sister Qianxi!"
Yahuazi looked at Tietie's lips with the same color lipstick as hers, and seemed hesitant to speak, but in the end she nodded, got up and sent them out, and then went back to the piano room to practice singing. She was a little uncomfortable.
Dare to ask, but you are afraid that the answer you will get is what you think.
She went to the counter to inquire about the lipstick Wu Hu gave her. Although she found the same lipstick, it was different from the one Wu Hu gave her. She felt that the one Wu Hu gave her was better.
But today, she saw the exact same color lipstick as hers on Tie Tie Lip. Even the gloss was almost the same, and it looked quite attractive.
Yahuazi had reason to suspect that Tietie also received the lipstick from Wu Hu.
As a girlfriend, this was a bit difficult for her to accept.
So much so that she always wanted to find something to vent her anger, and she was not even in the mood to practice singing.
