Huayu’s ex-husband

Chapter 138 137. The premiere of "Those Years" begins

The Dahua Cinema located on Yin Street in Dongcheng District was very busy today because the premiere of "Those Years" was held here.

Today, Wei Wu is really wearing a suit, combing his hair like an adult, and standing at the entrance of the hall as a concierge.

"Brother Hao, you're here!"

"Congratulations on the premiere of the new film, and I wish "Those Years" a great box office success!"

"Thank you very much!"

Ning Hao handed over the flowers and gift box he had prepared. Wei Wu took them with a smile and handed them to the secretary behind him to help collect them.

"You're too polite." Wei Wu took advantage of the opportunity to greet him with a few words:

"Well, I heard that your movie "Crazy Stone" has been scheduled for August 3rd?"

"Yes", Ning Hao nodded and said:

"I was originally planning to release it in July, but I heard that you scheduled "Those Years" to be released in early July, so I definitely wouldn't dare to release it in July!"

Wei Wu smiled and joked: "Hey, you can also show it with me on the same day. Let's work together to make all those Hollywood movies for him, and let's kill their prestige!"

Ning Hao grinned widely after hearing this: "Well, I definitely support you mentally, but I won't get involved in action! Because I'm afraid that when the time comes, you will become more aggressive, and even I will do it too! "

The two chatted and laughed for a while, and then Wei Wu casually mentioned:

"I remember that "Dragon and Tiger Gate" was released on July 28th. You are so close to it, will it have any influence?"

Ning Hao spread his hands and said, "That's impossible! The summer vacation will end at the end of August, and there's no way to push it back!"

"Yes..." Wei Wu nodded.

This is not unreasonable, because "Crazy Stone" is a movie that relies on long-term screening to build up the box office, so the summer schedule must be full.

In fact, the performance of this movie in the previous life was really average at the beginning.

In the previous life, "The Stone" was released on Friday, June 30th, and as of Sunday, the cumulative box office for the first three days was only 2 million. It was not until the 17th day of release, that is, July 16, that the cumulative box office finally exceeded 1,000,000. Ten thousand.

If we follow the normal box office curve, the final box office of this movie will probably be around 13 million, or 14 million at most.

If we divide the accounts according to this box office, it will be almost enough to make a slight profit that can even cover the cost!

However, "Crazy Stone" is definitely not an ordinary movie. In fact, it was not until the box office of the movie exceeded 10 million that the reputation gradually developed and the reputation grew.

Subsequently, the film's attention continued to increase, and the single-day box office bucked the trend and rose. It finally won 25.34 million, creating a box office miracle and becoming a low-cost comedy this summer.

Since this movie was mentioned, Wei Wu asked one more question:

"How many films were given to you?"

Ning Hao said with a bitter look on his face: "Just give us 10%."

There is no way, Ning Hao's movie is not only incomparable to "Those Years" in terms of attention, but the key is that several influential movies have been released before him in the summer season, so it is definitely impossible to give it to him Too high for filming!

So Wei Wu comforted him: "It's really not much, but it's not too little. My last movie had only three spots more schedule than you at the beginning, but didn't it come out in the end?

"And you happen to be making a low-budget comedy, and the quality of your movies is so good right here. I believe you can make a comeback and create miracles like "The Road to Misfortune"."

Ning Hao was obviously not as optimistic and confident as Wei Wu, and said with a wry smile:

"Okay, let me lend you some good luck. I hope I can lend you some good luck.

"But let's forget about copying your box office miracle. I'm not as capable as you.

"To tell you the truth, as long as the box office can be half as good as "Journey to the Road", then I will be satisfied!"

In fact, Ning Hao wanted to say that you were in the Spring Festival period when there were many strong people. At that time, you were given 13% of the film schedule, which was already a lot!

Not to mention that the Spring Festival market is much larger than the summer market. The key point is that our competition is not as fierce as yours at that time. To be honest, we really can’t compare like this!

Wei Wu held his shoulders and said: "You are too modest! I dare not say more. Your box office must be more than half of "The Man on the Road". If you ask me to say it will exceed 30 million, there is hope."

For some reason, seeing his eyes so firm and his tone so sonorous and powerful, Ning Hao couldn't help but feel courageous, a surge of blood surged in his heart, and he felt that the burden on his shoulders was much lighter.

This time the smile was obviously less polite: "Thank you Ji Yan, if we can really break through 30 million, I can let you sit at the head of the celebration banquet!"

Wei Wu patted him on the shoulder and said, "Okay, then I'll be waiting for your drink!"

"Okay, that's settled then. Just do your business and I'll go in first!"

After Ning Hao finished speaking, he nodded to Wei Wu and walked in, because he heard footsteps behind him. There must be other guests coming in, so it would not be appropriate for him to occupy Wei Wu all the time.

After watching Ning Hao enter, Wei Wu turned around to greet the next guest. Unexpectedly, he was an old acquaintance:

"Hey, Baoqiang, welcome, aren't you filming "Soldier Assault"? Why are you free to come here today? Have you already finished filming?"

Wang Baoqiang also presented the gift as usual, then shook hands with Wei Wu affectionately and said:

"Yes, it just wrapped up. It was wrapped up on the 20th of last month."

Wei Wu was a little surprised after hearing this: "Is it so fast? I remember you weren't the one...it seemed like you didn't start the machine until March?"

"Yeah", Wang Baoqiang nodded and said:

"Yes, we started filming on March 10th, and then finished filming on June 20th. We only finished shooting for three months!"

Wei Wu's expression became even more surprised: "Huh? Director Kang Honglei is so fast? Did your drama actually take only three months to complete?"

Wei Wu had never cared about how long it took for the TV series to be filmed, but he estimated that the quality was so high, so it must have been due to slow work and careful work!

Even for a general military-themed movie, it takes about four months to half a year to shoot!

I didn’t expect that a drama of such high quality as “Soldier Assault” would be filmed in only three months and ten days, that is, 100 days!

Gee, I have to say that director Kang Honglei does have something, it’s so fast and good!

To be honest, even if Wei Wu were asked to shoot now, he would definitely be able to shoot it in 100 days, but it would still be a bit rushed! After all, this TV series has 30 episodes, not 20!

Wei Wu also retrieved his memory to check the broadcast status of this drama. It turned out that the previous life of this drama was premiered on Shaanxi Radio 2 on December 24.

Kang Honglei is truly a fast shooter! This speed is also fast enough. It was only completed in mid-to-late June, and the post-production broadcast was ready in half a year!

But of course it wasn’t popular at first. After all, no one even watched Shaanxi TV, let alone Shaanxi No. 2!

It was not until the Army Day on August 1, 2007, that this drama finally became famous after it premiered on Yanjing TV. The average ratings were close to three points, and it undoubtedly became Yanjing TV's annual TV show. The ratings champion drama.

Subsequently, more and more provincial satellite TV stations introduced the show and put it on prime time rotation, making the show more and more popular, and eventually became a phenomenal annual TV drama.

Although the average ratings of "Soldier Assault" lag behind "Golden Wedding" and can only be ranked second in the year, like "The Legend of the Condor Heroes", the replay rate of this drama is also quite high!

Therefore, in terms of popularity and influence, this TV series is naturally far above "Golden Wedding", and it is worthy of its reputation as the most popular TV series in the mainland in 2007.

"Guardian, let me ask you about someone. There is a man named Chen Sicheng who is filming this drama with you this time. Are you familiar with him??"

Wang Baoqiang said with some excitement: "I'm familiar with you! Why aren't you familiar with me? Basically, of these people, he is the most familiar with me! Why are you having trouble with him, director?"

Wei Wu inquired about Chen Sicheng, and of course he wanted to sign him to Bad Monkey Pictures. Of course, it was not impossible if he insisted on signing to Shu Culture.

But no matter what, Wei Wu should persuade him to switch to director as soon as possible. After all, he is obviously more successful as a director than as an actor!

Wei Wu nodded and then asked: "Then has he signed a contract with you Huayi?"

Wang Baoqiang thought for a while and said: "As far as I know, there shouldn't be. After all, he only played a supporting role in our drama.

“And you also know that our Huayi’s threshold for signing people is still a bit high.

"Generally speaking, it doesn't mean that you can sign a contract as long as you act in our company's drama. Usually you have to wait for the drama to be broadcast. If the actor has a little bit of fame, the company may consider signing a contract with him."

"Oh", Wei Wu nodded slightly.

That is basically consistent with the information in Wei Wu's memory. Chen Sicheng did sign a contract with Huayi later, but it was only after the TV series became popular in 2007...

After all, how many actors out there don’t want to sign Huayi?

Besides, Huayi has to shoot so many movies and TV series a year. If any supporting role had to be signed, the company's artist management department would be overcrowded!

In fact, how arrogant is Huayi? It is said that they did not even want to sign Wang Baoqiang at first! In the end, Feng Xiaogang helped put in a good word, and Hua Yi pinched his nose and signed him in.

So even though Huayi delayed many excellent actors in those years, at least it was still worthy of Wang Baoqiang.

After all, whether it was "A World Without Thieves" that made Wang Baoqiang stand out, or "Soldier Assault" that made him famous in one fell swoop, these two dramas were cast by Hua Yi...
