Millennium director

The main executives and creative team of Happy Twist made up their minds after watching "囧囧" together.

They want to continue making movies!

And do comedies!

Just do "Charlotte Trouble"!

The success of this drama gave them great confidence.

They say failure is the mother of success.

After failing with the movie "One Thought in Heaven," there is no way they will fail again this time.

To put it bluntly, the bosses of Happy Twist were jealous of the high box office performance of "囧囧".

Actually it's not just them.

I don't know how many production companies related to the film and television industry in the industry are coveting the movie "Thailand". It's called envy and jealousy.

Only one company is smiling happily, and that is Enlight Pictures.

The movie "囧" is a collaboration between Enlight Pictures and Xu Zheng. Enlight assumed more than half of the investment, and the rest was contracted by Xu Zheng and Huang Bo's own studios.

And now, "Thailand" has broken the following records:

The highest first-day box office record for a Chinese-language film.

The highest single-day box office record for a Chinese-language film.

The highest box office record for a Chinese-language film in its first week.

Chinese-language movies are the fastest to break the 600 million box office record.

The highest box office record for a Chinese-language film in the second week.

The highest box office record for a Chinese-language film in a single week.

It ranks second at the box office in Chinese film history.

This series of records has brought not only honors to the Rays, but also a lot of money.

It only took "囧" less than half a month to break these records.

On January 1, 2013, the first day of the new year, the producer of "囧囧" announced that the box office of "囧囧" exceeded 1 billion yuan, officially entering the billion box office club.

This is also the second Chinese-language film to have a box office of over 1 billion after "The Legend of Shushan".

It is even certain that the final box office of this movie will exceed that of "The Legend of Shushan" and it will definitely not be a problem!

Because "囧囧" has only been released for 19 days!

However, on this important day, after Huang Bo attended the media meeting held by Enlight for "囧囧" with a box office of over 1 billion, and smashed the ice dragon sculpture with Audio-Technica which represented a box office of 1 billion, he responded honestly. The crew of "Dear".

He will not participate in the next promotional activities of "囧囧".

He was really too embarrassed to ask for leave again, and "Dear" had already finished shooting the scenes for other actors in Beijing, so he was just waiting for Huang Bo to finish his scene, and then the crew was about to move on.

We can't really shut down the production crew and wait for Huang Bo to finish the promotion of "囧囧", right?

Judging from the current box office trend of this movie, it is estimated that it will not be released until early February!

Beijing, on the set of "Dear".

"Director Wu, I'm back!" Huang Bo was full of apologies, and he began to bow and apologize to Wu Yuan from a distance.

He took a total of 19 days off, even collapsed for a year, and only returned to the crew on January 2. This behavior is really too much.

After being an actor for so many years, Huang Bo has never heard of an actor taking such a long leave of absence without force majeure.

Especially movie crews.

Huang Bo was really grateful that Wu Yuan could be so tolerant to him.

After all, he also hopes to promote "囧" more to add fuel to the film's final box office.

For a phenomenal movie like this, Huang Bo may not be able to encounter such an opportunity once in his life, so he has to seize it.

Besides, his studio also participated in investing in this movie. He is not only an actor, but also one of the investors, so he has to work hard!

In this situation, Huang Bo was so touched that Wu Yuan could be so considerate and understanding.

He almost shed tears.

"Isn't this our 1 billion box office movie star?"

"Why are you so jealous?"

Wu Yuan's slightly teasing figure interrupted Huang Bo's wandering thoughts.

"No, no, my achievements are nothing in front of you, the director."

"And the success of "Thailand" is mainly due to Xu Zheng and Bao Qiang. I'm just a teammate. This movie can't be named after me!"

Huang Bo is still so humble.

He really didn't have the crazy capital in front of Wu Yuan.

Even Xu Zhenglai has no chance.

Wu Yuan's identity has long been beyond the scope of a small Chinese entertainment industry. Not to mention the international awards he holds, just the box office of his commercial movies. The one with the highest box office is more than what Huang Bo has made in his life. The box office of all previous movies combined is more.

Even if it is a box office of several billion, to Wu Yuan, it is nothing more than what a movie has ever achieved.

Directors who can enter the billion-dollar box office club in Hollywood are so arrogant.

This is not a simple seven or eight times difference calculated based on the exchange rate.

It’s a gap of dozens or hundreds of times!

In addition, Huang Bo is not the kind of person who gets carried away with his achievements, so it is naturally impossible for him to do something strange.

This time when we were reunited with the group, the atmosphere was still very harmonious even though he took the initiative to humble himself.

Wu Yuan also smiled and patted his shoulder: "The crew is waiting for you alone."

"Don't be tired in the next few days. I have arranged a lot of scenes for you, and you will have to shoot for 8-10 hours every day."

"We have to catch up."

Although the crew usually shoots for more than 8 hours on weekdays, it cannot be all one person's scenes. In fact, each actor only has four or five hours of filming time every day, and the rest of the time is spent waiting for scenes.

But Huang Bo didn't want to get such treatment this time. In the next half month, the crew would shoot his scenes alone. His scenes with each actor were arranged together, and they were shot continuously every day.

This is also the treatment he deserves after missing work for 20 days. Huang Bo has nothing to complain about, and he dare not complain. He nodded heavily: "Director, please feel free to do it. I will definitely go all out and follow the arrangements!"

In this way, Huang Bo returned to the team and the "Dear" crew got back on track.

However, the various waves caused by "囧囧" in the outside world have just begun.

The most obvious and fastest-moving thing is that major film and television production companies have all begun to increase investment in small and medium-cost comedies.

A dark horse like "囧囧" is really awesome.

Invest in the production of ten such movies, and as long as one "囧" can come out second, it will be a bloody profit!

It was also at a time when the industry was completely burned by "comedies" and "nonsensical comedies" and started preparing for such movies that Happy Twist also came to the Light and Shadow Era with the first draft of "Charlotte Trouble".

Happy Mahua still plans to cooperate with Light and Shadow Times this time. They would not dare to invest so much money to make a movie on their own.

Although he said it would be successful this time, Happy Mahua really didn't dare to gamble.

If this "Charlotte Troubles" also fails, then if it is fully funded by myself, it is possible that Happy Twist will go bankrupt directly.

Over the years, not many movie companies have been forced to go bankrupt because of a box office flop.

In order to seek stability, Happy Mahua immediately approached Light and Shadow Times.

After reading the script, Li Xiaoping agreed to the investment without hesitation and approved the film internally.

Light and Shadow Times is now also trying to broaden the types of movies it invests in.

It really hit it off!
