677 Galaxy half of the mainland entertainment industry
In the second half of 2013, the entertainment industry was no less lively than in the second half of the year.
In particular, several top artists from Fanxing have worked together and still occupy the first echelon of Internet popularity.
Damimi's "Beijing Meets Seattle" has a box office of more than 650 million. As of the end of October, it is the second-largest Chinese film this year after "Journey to the West: Conquering the Demons" and "To Our Fading Youth."
This is definitely exciting news for Damimi, whose previous movie box office figures have been ups and downs.
More importantly, this movie allowed Damimi to accumulate good appeal in themes such as love and chick flicks. In other words, she has finally made her own path.
At least in the next few years, as long as the quality of her works is not bad, Damimi will have a place in the film industry and firmly become a first-line film artist.
For this achievement, leaving aside the bunch of Hong Kong and Taiwan artists, the number of people in the Mainland who can achieve this ability is only in the lower double digits.
At least for now, there are only two mainland female artists who can qualify to mention their box office appeal.
At this point, Damimi can be considered a top name in the industry. Considering her popularity and popularity in Asia and internationally, she may be called a superstar.
As for this qualification, not to mention that most of the mainland's big beauties are not qualified, even the older generation of Hong Kong and Taiwan actresses are not qualified.
The most frightening thing is that Damimi is still young and just celebrated her 27th birthday in September this year.
Assuming that an actress's peak flowering period is 35 years old, Da Mimi still has at least seven or eight years to work hard, which is something that many older actresses cannot do.
For example, Li Bingbing, who was born in 1973, is already 40 years old this year. No matter how well she takes care of herself, she will only last a few more years at most.
By then, even if she still refuses to play the role of mother, the love scenes will still be forced on old cows to eat young grass. With her status, there will be no shortage of jokes, but many good resources will not be available, and she will have to be pushed back in the queue.
.
What's even more frightening is that another young actress Liu Tianxian is more powerful than Damimi.
In September, Liu Tianxian's movie "Super Body", which he had been working on for more than a year, was finally released worldwide.
As a superhero movie with a Chinese actress as the protagonist, coupled with Liu Tianxian's huge popularity, "Super Body" has attracted a lot of attention, and countless people have been looking forward to it as early as the project was first established.
Just come out after calling for it!
Countless people poured into the cinema and saw an atypical superhero story, or rather a science fiction film.
The heroine's name is Liu, the story is set in Europe and the United States, and the villain is not Korean, but an American gangster.
Originally, the reason why the villain of "Super Body" was Korean was because one of the production companies had a Korean background, namely CJ Entertainment.
The latter has also been mentioned before. It is the most famous film company in South Korea. It is very powerful and can even be said to be a media giant covering countless entertainment industries in South Korea.
Not only in the media, CJ is also very powerful and influential in many fields such as sports, agriculture, light industry, and games.
What’s even more interesting is that behind CJ is the Li family. Yes, it’s the same Li from Samsung.
However, although they share the same surname and branch, the two sides are incompatible to a certain extent.
To put it simply, it was caused by inheritance rights. Cao Xuan's cheap father-in-law was the third eldest son at the time and replaced the original successor, the eldest son, as the head of Samsung. The eldest son's family only received a small part of the shares and part of the industry.
[To be honest, I have been using Yeguo to read and catch up on books recently. I can switch sources and read aloud with many sounds. www. Android and Apple are available.]
Naturally, the eldest family was dissatisfied, and they continued to cause trouble and accumulate their own strength. It was not until the 1990s that they officially separated and began to make achievements in other industries.
CJ is definitely not as big as Samsung, but it should not be underestimated. Moreover, the relationship between the two companies is extremely bad and they are trying to trick each other. In 2012, there was even a lawsuit over production.
But this has nothing to do with Cao Xuan. His relationship with Samsung is complicated, but his relationship with CJ is not bad either.
The two pillar industries are both engaged in entertainment, so it is inevitable that there will be social cooperation. Cao Xuan even took a stake in the company under his name, while CJ is responsible for most of Fanxing's film and television distribution in South Korea.
Many of Samsung's entertainment industries are also cooperating with Fanxing. The scale may be inferior, but it is earlier and more in-depth.
Cao Xuan didn't dare to say anything in the dispute between the two consortiums, but if there was a conflict between entertainment companies, he would have to rely on Fanxing to mediate.
Talking about "Super Body", the original movie had a Korean gangster villain because of the addition of CJ, but now it is produced by Fanxing, and the protagonist has become Chinese, so there is no need for the villain to be Asian, so he changed it to
American gangster.
The heroine is not a little girl, but an ordinary female college student. She was deceived by her classmates and offended the gang. As a result, she awakened supernatural powers due to the medicine. After that, she fought monsters and upgraded, and transformed into the universe.
The plot of this movie is actually very simple. What makes it interesting is that a girl transforms into a "god", kills people like crazy, and manipulates the gangsters into applause. It is an action movie with popcorn special effects in an absolute sense.
As for the final plot of the female gorilla and God in the original version, Cao Xuan removed it, allowing the heroine to become the universe.
Some people may like this plot and find it quite novel, while others may find it inexplicable.
A few packets of so-called new drugs are so powerful, wouldn't it mean that there are supermen everywhere?
It would be better to shoot like this and have the heroine wake up in the hospital at the end. All of this is a hallucination caused by her being invaded by drugs. It is more ironic realism and has a sense of black humor, but in this way, the excitement before the movie will be greatly reduced.
After several discussions, Cao Xuan still did not change the final plot. Anyway, it was a fun film, and Liu Tianxian made fun of Hollywood's semi-experimental film, so there was no need to worry so much.
Therefore, the final product of "Super Body" is a movie with obvious advantages and disadvantages.
People who like it think it's very good, but people who don't like it don't give it a high rating. Overall, it's still a good thing.
The Mtime.com score is 7.4, and the North American IMDB score is 6.5, which is barely above average.
After all, it is a commercial science fiction film led by Liu Tianxian, and the outside world is not so harsh. If it is Cao Xuan's level, it will be difficult to say.
Compared with word-of-mouth, the parties involved, the industry and even fans are more concerned about the box office.
The box office of "Super Body" in the mainland is not bad, with a cumulative box office of 377 million. Although it is not a big hit, it is definitely not bad, and it is expected to be among the top ten Chinese-language films of the year.
This data is far inferior to Damimi's "Beijing Meets Seattle", but everyone thinks that "Super Body" is more important.
No matter how popular "Beijing Meets Seattle" is, it will only be popular in mainland China, barely covering East Asia.
But "Super Body" has made a mark in North America.
$52.13 million!
This figure does not even make it into the top 50 in this year's North American box office list, but it is an achievement that countless Chinese filmmakers cannot even dream of achieving.
Strictly speaking, there are only a few people such as Cao Xuan, Bruce Lee, Cheng Long, and International Zhang who can reach this figure in starring movies.
Not to mention Liu Tianxian's "Super Body" is absolutely significant, and its weight is heavier than ordinary starring movies.
At that time, the international chapter's "Memoirs of a Geisha" only grossed more than 50 million US dollars at the North American box office, which elevated her to the position of an international celebrity. Of course, this was helped by movies such as "Heroes" and "Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon."
But Liu Tianxian is not unknown internationally. She was the heroine in two of the "Taken" series, with a cumulative box office of 600-700 million US dollars.
A lot of the promotion for "Super Body" also focused on her, the most popular actress in Asia, Balabala. Although the effect is not particularly strong, it still has some influence.
What's even more rare is that this movie not only achieved certain box office results in North America, but also performed reasonably well in other countries.
Europe and Australia have scraped together more than 20 million US dollars, but in Asia, Liu Tianxian's popularity is no joke.
Japan alone contributed more than 10 million U.S. dollars, and in the end, Asia except China contributed 25 million U.S. dollars.
In addition, the mainland, which has the largest box office, is equivalent to 60 million U.S. dollars, and the cumulative global box office is almost 160 million U.S. dollars. This figure is far inferior to Cao Xuan, but it is also extremely strong in the Chinese entertainment industry.
But if you think about it carefully, more than half of these box office numbers are in Asia alone, and the overall data is not as ideal as it seems on the surface.
However, even so, it was enough for Liu Tianxian to be promoted to the altar.
How can I put it, the trend is such that your achievements in foreign countries are better than your achievements at home.
Cao Xuan was so popular at the time that he could be said to have surpassed all others and became the number one person in the Chinese music scene, but other singers can still compare with him.
In an absolute sense, he is on a higher level than all Chinese singers. He has become the leader of the Chinese music scene and the first person in history. He started by breaking out of Asia and going international.
This does not rule out some bad cultural concepts, but from a realistic perspective, it is indeed very difficult and valuable for a Chinese to achieve good results in a foreign country.
Especially in China, it is often difficult to keep a sufficient distance from artists of the same level, so introducing foreign performance competition is the key to victory or defeat.
In the past two years, Mr. Zhou and Fan Xiaopang have continued to become popular, but at the beginning of this year, after the international chapter came out of the gloom with "The Grandmaster", it immediately became a strong competitor for the number one female star. It relies on its international influence.
If Fan Xiaopang had not joined Marvel, he might not have been able to suppress her.
And now, Liu Tianxian is one step ahead of Damimi because of his performance in "Super Body".
Nowadays, she is not only qualified to be called "Asian Superstar", but also has enough confidence to join Zhang, Fan and Zhou's "Chinese Sister" competition.
Liu Tianxian's life these days is so beautiful. He has wiped out the advantages that Da Mi Mi has accumulated over the past two years in one go, and even achieved a certain degree of overtaking.
Things are rare and valuable!
I can’t say it’s amazing that a starring work earned US$50 million in North America, but others didn’t. That’s Liu Tianxian’s capital.
In today's Hollywood-obsessed environment, unless Damimi continues to produce blockbuster movies, it will be really difficult to overtake it.
However, at this time, Damimi could be regarded as a ruthless person tempered by bloody battles, and her mentality was no longer what it was back then.
I feel unhappy, but I am not frustrated or discouraged.
If she can surpass Liu the first time, she can surpass the second time. It will still take a long time. Let’s play slowly...
There is just one thing, at a critical point in Fan Xiaopang's first year after leaving Fanxing, Liu Tianxian made such a wonderful turnaround and took a big lead in the competition for Fanxing's first sister.
Although the company has not yet been completely sealed, the position of the first sister will not be vacant for long.
Although she didn't want to admit it, Damimi also understood that after this incident, she, who was already at a disadvantage, had a very slim chance of rising to the top in a short time.
As for Cao Xuan, he doesn't care who the next Fanxing No. 1 sister is, but he is not satisfied with the overall results of "Super Body".
The global box office of the original movie was 470 million U.S. dollars. Liu Tianxian's version is only 1/3 of the original version, and it still relies heavily on Asian beauty.
But Cao Xuan himself also understands that the success of the original "Super Body" was largely due to the widowed sister who is half the world famous in Marvel.
Liu Tianxian is only influential in the "Taken" series, and coupled with the quality of the film itself, it has almost won 80 million U.S. dollars in box office in Europe and the United States, which is a relatively reasonable result.
If it is any worse, the original goal will not be achieved.
I wish it could be higher, but it lacks some bonuses from luck and other factors.
Although this cannot be said to be perfect, it is within the acceptable range. At least it is enough as a stepping stone. Liu Tianxian has barely established a foothold in Hollywood.
This means a lot to Fanxing. After years of hard work, he finally has another important international star.
Don't go to Cao Xuan to take out the book "Super Body".
In fact, there is no use for him to keep it. Unless he brings the widowed sister here, this book will not be as popular if it is shot by another person. It may not be as good as Liu Tianxian. At least she is beautiful and popular.
Xianmi has performed steadily and has even reached the point where she is ready to take over from the actresses born in the 1970s.
Zhao Xiaodao, another 85-flower representative of Fanxing, also performed well.
In October, her other TV series "Gu Jian Qi Tan" was released.
This drama is particularly popular. If we talk about the popularity of "Flower Thousand Bones" in the first half of the year, it is more on the online platform, breaking a series of website broadcast records.
"The Story of Ancient Swords" is mainly on the TV platform, and it is almost guaranteed to win the national satellite TV ratings championship this year, and is even expected to hit the annual ratings championship.
Two phenomenal blockbusters a year, and the most popular name in the TV drama field this year is Zhao Xiaodao.
Relying on the popularity of the TV series and the popularity she gained this year, even Damimi and Liu Tianxian, who are also at their peak, had to avoid the limelight for a while.
This girl from a rural area in Hebei Province has shone the most dazzlingly this year.
If we say last year, there were still various controversies among the new four Xiao Hua Dan, and even Zhao Xiaodao was ridiculed in various ways.
But as soon as the two blockbuster TV shows came out this year, except for a small number of other fans, everyone with a discerning eye knew who the new four actresses would look up to in the future.
Many people even think that Zhao Xiaotao has initially acquired the capital to challenge Xianmi, which shows how popular these two dramas have made her.
Zhao Xiaodao, who was still in the consolidation period, has completely secured his position in the top ranks and has become another new trump card of Fanxing.
Zhao Xiaodao's crazy rise also helped Hu Jing win a lot of praise.
Compared to the collective popularity of the Chinese Opera Class 02, the outside world thinks that Empress Nishinomiya is a famous teacher who trains students.
Many people think that the students in this class are good, and the teacher is willing to work hard to train them. After becoming famous, they help each other, and with a certain amount of luck, they finally form a rare star class.
In comparison, the relationship between Hu Jing and Yang and Zhao is even more legendary.
When she discovered Yang Mi, the latter was just a newcomer with a model background. She took the Nortel exam later, and as a result, she gradually became one of the most popular actresses.
If Yang Mi is considered lucky, then Zhao Xiaodao's success completely proves Hu Jing's vision.
A technical secondary school student from a rural area was selected by Hu Jing after only participating in an online talent show and sent to the Chinese Theater Academy for training. Within a few years, he became a top-tier actor.
With this kind of vision, this kind of courage, this kind of ability to turn decay into magic, who would dare to say that President Hu is a vase who rose to power by relying on his pillow style.
If you don’t accept it, if you don’t accept it, you can bring out a big Mimi and Zhao Xiaodao...
Faced with overwhelming praise, Hu Jing originally didn't want to take credit, but was persuaded by Cao Xuan.
He has no shortage of praise for his knowledge of people, and the talents he has discovered are too many. On the contrary, Hu Jing is not in the position of CEO now, so it would be beneficial to take more credit.
Moreover, these two people became successful because of his advice and help, but more importantly, it was Hu Jing who supported them a little bit and took the lead.
Hu Jing then shamelessly acquiesced, but having tasted the benefits, she was wondering whether to praise a newcomer again.
Yang Zhao's momentum has been established, and there is no need for her to worry too much. Hu Jing focuses on Dili's fleshy body.
What is different from the first two is that although Rouba also asked Cao Xuan and got approval, it was indeed Hu Jing who took her fancy first, unlike Yang and Zhao who were recommended to her by Cao Xuan.
This is a fundamental difference in the heart of Empress Donggong, especially since she just felt unworthy of taking the credit.
If Dili's meaty figure is also praised, she can barely deserve the title of bole.
Star female artists have emerged one after another, even becoming the absolute center of 85 Flowers, and male artists have also performed outstandingly.
The aforementioned Huang Bo has become the representative of the Mesozoic film actors in the Mainland, Qiao Zhenyu has entered the first line with "A Thousand Bones of Flowers", and Jiao Enjun in "Beijing Meets Seattle" has set off the uncle wave.
Chen Yao has become one of the most popular artists this year with his success in movies and TV shows such as "The Legend of Ancient Swords" and "The Year in a Hurry".
Even Hu Ge, who was so "decadent" that he filmed a TV series, successfully became famous with the TV series "Battle of Changsha".
It's inappropriate to say that he became famous, because Hu Ge has always been popular, but it is true that this movie stopped his decline and withstood Chen Yao's crazy impact.
"Battle of Changsha" cannot be said to be particularly popular, at least not as good as "Tales from the Tomb", but the ratings are quite good, and the most important thing is that it has a good reputation.
With a rating of 9.4 on Time.com, it can compete for the best word-of-mouth TV series this year.
Many people have even compared it with Fanxing's classic anti-war dramas "Bright Sword" and "My Commander, My Regiment". Not only did Hu Ge successfully transform in one fell swoop, his acting skills are increasingly recognized by the industry and the outside world.
This also made Hu Ge not eager to return to movies immediately, but took on two more dramas from Noon Sunshine, preparing to further improve his business and reputation, accumulate popularity, and then fight in movies again.
In addition to the above-mentioned artists who have reached a higher level, other artists have also achieved their own achievements.
If in the past, Fan Xingxing was only the mainstay of the mainland entertainment industry, only a few people could hold up their reputation.
As for the collective explosion in 2013, the number of star artists who can stand alone is as high as double digits. It may be a bit exaggerated to say that they support the mainland entertainment industry, but at least they account for half of the country...
