Chapter 052 Dont sign randomly when you are away from home
October 7th.
On the sixth floor of an old building facing the street in Kowloon Tong, Zhou Xingxing, Wu Zhenyu and Liu Qingyun stepped out of the elevator. As soon as they saw Cheng Xiaodong and Lin Zhengying standing there chatting in the corridor ahead, the three of them all stepped forward quickly.
"Director Cheng!"
"Hello, Director Cheng!"
…
Under the greeting, Cheng Xiaodong looked happy, "Are you here too? This is Director Lin, Brother Sanmao's right-hand man, much more powerful than me. The Five Lucky Stars are Director Lin's action guide."
Zhou Xingxing and the others immediately greeted Lin Zhengying respectfully and politely, as if they were getting to know Lin Zhengying again.
Today is the 16th day of the release of New World! It has accumulated more than 13 million box office in the previous 13 days, although it is a huge hit.
But in most people's minds, New World's potential has been almost exhausted. After that, the box office will continue to decline, and the attendance of many cinemas will also decline until it is released.
Based on the previous data, New World will definitely be able to squeeze into the top of the 1983 box office list, but the specific position is still uncertain. It is only the beginning of October, one of the most important dates of the year, the Lunar New Year block.
It came again more than a month later.
Surprisingly, the day before yesterday, the fourteenth day, New World had a box office of over 800,000, which was a very small drop. Yesterday, on the fifteenth day, it also had a box office of over 700,000.
This is nearly 15 million box office, 15 days!
What's more, the day before yesterday and yesterday were Wednesday, Thursday, and working days.
This is the third film of the year among the released films, and it is still far away from the 21.9 million of the second place Five Lucky Stars. However, it is already in the middle and late stages of release, and the box office is still so stable, which really surprised many people.
Before Zhou Xingxing and others arrived, Lin Zhengying and Cheng Xiaodong were talking about this topic.
After the greeting, Zhou Xingxing said excitedly, "Director Cheng, our New World has great box office stamina. Last night I went to Temple Street with Ah Wei. Even at many roadside stalls in Temple Street, there were bosses shouting, "New World has the same style."
The suit made me laugh to death."
Wu Zhenyu said excitedly, "Isn't it? When you go to shopping malls now, whether it's high-end or roadside stores, or street stalls like Temple Street, there are too many people shouting about the same style as the New World, and selling these new suits to customers.
"
"There are also many young people wearing it on the street. Many of them are stunned for a moment without having seen the movie. They are promoting it for us in disguise!"
Cheng Xiaodong burst into laughter, and Lin Zhengying shook her head in confusion, "Zhao Sheng's drama, in addition to Fa Ge and others running announcements and appearing on TV shows in the later stage of the promotion, many clothing stores and vendors in Hong Kong are also helping to promote it. No wonder it has such strong stamina.
"
"If we wait until the weekend, the box office will probably explode."
The strong stamina of New World is really related to the clothing stores and vendors in Hong Kong who have taken notice of the trend.
To use a word from later generations to describe it, this has become popular!
In order to make money, the clothes sellers sell this style to customers when they meet customers. In addition, the new suits really highlight the Asian figure, making the male figure more slender and straight, making him look more handsome.
It is indeed more popular with customers.
Forget those who want to look good after watching the movie and go out to buy new clothes. Many people who did not watch the movie and just bought clothes or went shopping will also be affected.
There are also the entire New World, too many handsome boys, too many handsome men, a full-fledged hormonal dark idol feeling, not to mention the young and Dangerous boys and girls on the street, some students on campus also often go to the second place
After three brushes, they are still in groups.
This box office stamina has exceeded many people’s expectations.
It's already the third week of working days and there are still 700,000 to 800,000 box office. On the weekend, there are even some days before the Double Ninth Festival, and it is a holiday. If it is released after the Double Ninth Festival, it will be released, let alone 15 million.
.
Given the current trend, there may not be any hope of knocking down the Five Lucky Stars!
Lin Zhengying didn't know what to say.
After the words, several people chatted for a few more words, and the mood was just right. Then they saw Zhao Donghuai and two young and middle-aged people walking out of the elevator. When everyone saw it, they immediately greeted them with a smile.
Director Zhao also greeted politely, "Sir Cheng, Aying, Xingzai, I called you here today to prepare for my next play."
In a word, everyone was excited and happy, even Lin Zhengying, who had been invited to the Five Lucky Stars celebration banquet, was also very excited.
He really never thought about asking him to be the first male lead in a new play before.
After greeting him politely, he invited a few people into a large office on the sixth floor. This is the headquarters of Zhao's International Trading, and it is also the temporary office of Zhao's Pictures.
Most of the house, which totals more than 200 square meters, is empty. There are some office equipment and cameras randomly placed in the large office area.
At first glance, the appearance looks similar to the place where Liang Kun invited Chen Haonan to his film company to negotiate a role in Young and Dangerous 1, and where he took the little stammerer to try out the scene.
In the big office, mineral water was distributed to everyone one by one. Zhao Donghuai took out a stack of papers from his backpack, all of which were contracts.
"My new movie is an action movie. I can't explain the specific shooting style and action effects at the moment... I'm here with you today. It's just a real shot. I'll edit it in post-production and make a sample video."
"When the shooting officially starts and everyone has seen the samples, it will be easier to design consistent action and direction."
"Before this, please sign a confidentiality agreement."
A group of people looked at each other in shock, looking at Director Zhao speechless. After a few dozen seconds, Xingzai held a mineral water under his left arm and brought out a confidentiality agreement, "Thank you, director, I'll sign it."
As soon as Xingzi moved, Wu Zhenyu and Liu Qingyun hurriedly followed.
Zhao Donghuai laughed, "Don't rush to sign the contract, look carefully before signing, right, Ayu."
Ayu reacted slower than Xingzai this time... There's nothing wrong with him. It's not like he hasn't seen how Director Zhao made people sign random things.
When Wu Zhenyu laughed awkwardly and was at a loss, Zhao Donghuai continued to send the confidentiality agreement to Cheng Xiaodong, the two photographers he brought and Lin Zhengying, "Read it carefully before signing. You can't sign randomly when you are out. If something happens, you can cry if you want."
Not coming out."

Xingzi, "..."
…………
After a while, everyone signed a confidentiality agreement and stood in an empty space in the big office. Zhao Donghuai explained, "The new movie I want to shoot will have a realistic action style, similar to the kung fu comedy of Brother Sanmao and Brother Long.
Big difference.”
"The style of screening is derived from Krav Maga in Israel. It is a military unarmed combat system. The way of teaching national defense combat there, even at this stage, there are also many CIA and FBI from Amei's family who go to
Learn this kind of fighting over there."
"Then Amei also plans to promote it on a large scale in the military and police law enforcement departments."
"The characteristics of these movements are that you can defeat the enemy with one move and never waste the second move. Hit the Yang, throat and other vital points as hard as you can. You can use a knife or a stick to fight against the enemy. If you have that condition, you will never use bare hands.
."
"If there are too many people, turn around and run away."
"Actually, it's similar to a street fight where you just want to win, but you have to strike quickly and accurately!"
Following Director Zhao's explanation, a group of people looked at each other in confusion again. Cheng Xiaodong and Lin Zhengying were both speechless. This was really realistic!
This is very different from the Peking Opera practice and big-screen fighting they have been exposed to since childhood. I haven't heard of it being the style of military police or even street fighting? It's similar to the club opening film, right?
After being speechless for a while, Lin Zhengying asked curiously, "Director, realistic style... will this look good when shot??"
Zhao Donghuai laughed, "So, this also places great demands on the shooting style. If the styles don't match, it will be difficult to shoot good-looking. It's easy to say that the styles match."
"Next, Xingzai, you guys will practice first. When we fight A Ying later, two photographers and I will take photos. We will take a look at the samples. Only after the samples are taken will we all have an idea of how to work hard."
