Rhapsody of Entertainment Rebirth
Chapter 280 Chapter 280: Good luck in the Year of the Pig
Shanhe's return home made the entire Qiujia Village lively.
At the end of the year, Qiujia Village suddenly turned into a tourist attraction.
Once the news spread, not to mention the government officials at all levels who came to visit the village, villagers from neighboring villages, fellow villagers from the county, and even curious people from the next county all drove over.
Everyone wants to see with their own eyes this famous person who was born and raised in northern Fujian.
The relatives of Qiujia Village are naturally very proud. They often take people around the village and tell exaggerated anecdotes about the mountains and rivers in their hometown.
The past of Shanhe seems to be particularly legendary and mysterious in their mouths. They explain why they were extremely smart as a child, were born with wisdom, and were blessed by their ancestors.
Qiujia Village is getting richer and richer because of Shanhe's family. Perhaps it is really the blessing of the ancestors. The weather in Qiujia Village has been good these years. Qiu Jiang has traveled all over the country, and his horizons have naturally broadened, so he has his own ideas about developing side businesses in his hometown.
Qiu Dahai also has prestige in the village, so each family has started side businesses in the past few years, raising chickens and ducks, raising pigs and cattle, planting fruit trees, setting up processing plants, etc., and everything has gone very smoothly.
With Xie Meiyu and Qin Haiyang helping out, there is no need to worry about having no place to sell these things in the village. As their careers continue to expand, there are naturally people from their hometowns in the company, and young people with basic potential are all recruited by them. Enter the company to train.
The entire Qiujia Village has now changed. When farmers have money, the first thing they do is build a house. This is a common trait of Chinese people!
For this matter, the elders of the Qiu family even opened an ancestral hall to discuss it.
Why the Qiu family can be so prosperous? In addition to the blessings of the ancestors, the most important thing is good Feng Shui. It has been spread all over the world, and there are many things to say. To sum up, there is only one sentence: Qiujia Village is a treasure land of Feng Shui!
The entire Qiu family is sure of this. Since it is a geomantic treasure land, we cannot dig the foundation haphazardly. We must be particular about building a house!
In the end, this matter even involved Qiu Jiang. Qiu Jiang was forced by his father to return home because of this matter a few years ago.
Finally, we invited masters and designers to plan the entire Qiujia Village in a very interesting way. The structure of the entire village has not changed. It lives on the mountain and is adjacent to the water.
However, with minor adjustments made by professionals and the addition of new buildings, Qiujia Village has become very delicate and harmonious, integrating into the landscape and widening the road space.
Shanhe likes the new atmosphere of his hometown very much. Although it is no longer as familiar and friendly as he remembered when he was a child, it is countless times better than the Qiujia Village he remembered later.
In the two days before last year, Shanhe still had a busy and intense life in his hometown, with social activities and family gatherings, plus all kinds of busybodies and fans who came to the village.
The mountains and rivers must greet each other with smiles. Now that we have returned to our hometown, we cannot walk in brocade at night!
During the day, the whole family is busy with the lively Qiujia Village, and at night it is the happiest time at home.
The whole family sat together and chatted, and the topic mainly focused on the two little ones. Even the smallest things can make the whole family laugh and have great joy.
Qiu Chuxi is more popular than Shanhe at this time. She has always been sweet-tongued and lively, and it would be fun to be anywhere with her.
She looked like the favorite child of the elders. The four elders pampered her as if they were their precious child. Ever since she came home, her grandparents had never taken their eyes off her.
Shanhe is an adult and a boy, so naturally he cannot enjoy this kind of treatment.
However, she was disgusted by her grandparents' urging for marriage, "Xiaohe, why don't you bring that foreign child to your home this year? Boys have to be responsible. Our family doesn't want to mess up the relationship between men and women. Besides, it's time for you to get married and start a family. !”
"Grandson, your grandpa is right. Get him married as soon as possible. Grandma is waiting to have her great-grandson!"
Shanhe scratched his head when he was told, "Grandpa, if I find a foreigner, I won't object. I think the clan elders care about Feng Shui traditions and so on!"
"What's the big deal about foreigners!" Qiu Dahai said earnestly, "Our ancestors of the Qiu family married foreigners. When our ancestors came here from the north, they couldn't live without intermarrying with the foreigners here. If you don’t go down, our Qiu family doesn’t care about this, as long as you have the blood of the Qiu family, you are the descendant of our Qiu family!”
"Haha... Let's talk about it next year. Grandpa, after the Chinese New Year, you and grandma can go to the capital with me to live for a while!" Shanhe tried to change the subject.
"No, the capital is lively, but uncomfortable. Now the village is no worse than the city. The younger generations are all working hard. We old guys are living comfortably in our hometown!" Qiu Dahai waved his hand and responded, "You kid, don't play tricks on me. Xinyan, now that you have grown up, you should get married and start a family, and it is your duty to carry on the family line!"
"I know, Grandpa!"
…
Shanhe is enjoying the nagging of his relatives in his hometown, and everyone at Chuhe Film and Television is also enjoying the popularity of "Painted Skin" in the capital.
Normally, the reputation of Chuhe Film and Television and Shanhe in previous years is enough to support the movie box office in the past few days.
To everyone's surprise, the classic Chinese ghost story, coupled with gorgeous special effects, and under the auspices of Mr. Xu, burst into incredible popularity two days after its release.
Xu Ke has completely turned around this time. "Painted Skin" has almost no negative reviews from the audience and the media, and the word-of-mouth effect far exceeds expectations.
After breaking 18 million on the first day, it exceeded 25 million in the next two days. This situation greatly exceeded the expectations of Xu Ke and Chuhe Film and Television.
In the final analysis, the reason is that the quality of the film is acceptable. At this time, the Chinese people did not have the aesthetic fatigue of later generations.
The subject matter of "Painted Skin" is fresh enough, the story is good, the special effects are good, and the filming is good. It is very suitable for the tastes of the Chinese people!
The Spring Festival holiday has just begun. According to the experience of previous years, the peak box office period is after the first day of the new year. Chuhe Film and Television and the entire Chinese film industry are looking forward to where the highest and final box office of "Painted Skin" will be.
What makes Zhong Lifeng most happy is not that "Painted Skin" has exploded in China. It has also performed very well in other Asian countries and regions.
It topped the box office rankings in Hong Kong and Taiwan on the same day, and its reputation is excellent, which is similar to the situation in China.
Good news has also been reported at the box office of various Southeast Asian countries. Singapore, Malaysia, Indonesia, Thailand and other countries have ranked first in the box office rankings. Hollywood movies of the same period were stepped on by "Painted Skin".
Neon and Bangguo relied on the promotion of screenwriter Shan He, and the box office was also very good. The media of the two countries even shouted "Wolf is coming!" to describe the excellent production of Chinese films.
"Moon" and "Painted Skin" really made them feel the strong recovery of Chinese films at the end of this year.
This is the first simultaneous distribution in Asia after Chuhe Film and Television acquired Golden Harvest Pictures. After the initial success, it has been an extraordinary boost to Chuhe Film and Television and Golden Harvest Pictures.
"Moon" plus "Painted Skin", the stamina and strength shown by Chuhe Film and Television will speed up the clarification and reorganization of Golden Harvest Pictures.
The success of "Painted Skin" is not just reflected in the box office!
Tsui Hark is an authentic Hong Kong director, and Shan He has brought Leung Ka-fai to the top. Although Chuhe Films has not set foot in the Hong Kong film industry, its influence is enough to shock most Hong Kong filmmakers.
At this moment, Zhong Lifeng is very ambitious. She plans to go to Hong Kong immediately after the new year. She will use this momentum to step up the acquisition of equity and sort out Jiahe. Next year will be the best time for Jiahe Cinema to expand domestically.
After next year, the two arms of Chuhe and Jiahe will be able to support the Chinese film industry!
Faced with various capitals that are setting their sights on the film and television industry, competition in the domestic film and television industry in the next two years will surely become more intense. At this time, Zhong Lifeng is fearless, come on! The more the merrier!
We are now the largest film capital in China. When facing us, you all have to stand in the back row!
As soon as the New Year arrives, the rich New Year atmosphere in the countryside cannot be compared to that in the city. Just the continuous sound of firecrackers makes the small mountain village lively.
The laughter of children, the crowing of roosters, the barking of dogs, and even the roars of slaughtered pigs are mixed in. All kinds of sounds, combined with the aroma of fried food all over the village, create a New Year atmosphere.
This kind of reunion that belongs exclusively to China makes people involuntarily immersed in joy.
Shan He was no exception. On the first day of the Lunar New Year, there were family gatherings and family dinners. Every household had to pay for it. Shan He was naturally the first to bear the brunt, but he found the joy of childhood in it.
Now everyone doesn't let him do menial work like killing pigs, and arranges for him to take the children in the village, in the name of giving the children more culture and luck!
Shanhe had no choice but to obey the assignment, and together with Qiu Chuxi and Doudou, he took the village children around. The children didn't care whether you were a great writer or director. After they got familiar with it, various tricks of the rural children during the New Year were performed one after another.
There are so many things you can do with a bunch of firecrackers, including frying water, fish, cans and bottles, blowing up any holes you see, even cow shit!
During this period, various embarrassing things happened frequently. Some were scared to tears, some were bombed and their clothes were soaked, and one was covered in cow shit!
Shanhe was dumbfounded by the children's naughtiness, but he enjoyed it. He grew up like this when he was a child.
Children who grow up in the city cannot experience this kind of happiness!
Xie Meiyu is the CEO of a group outside, and she is full of aura. When she comes home, she is the daughter-in-law of the Qiu family and has to work.
However, she was well-known for her cooking skills. When she returned to her hometown, they were all chefs. It had been a long time since she had hosted a banquet. Xie Meiyu was now enjoying herself.
The aura of a boss is all used in directing and arranging the kitchen, and Qiu Jiang is one of the workers.
He was most instigated by his wife, and he complained in his heart. This was retaliation. Didn't he just say a few words about her smelling like copper and falling into the eyes of money? Women are really difficult to raise!
The Shanhe family had their own fun in their hometown, and time passed very quickly in joy. They worshiped ancestors, paid New Year greetings, welcomed and sent off, and the seventh day of the Lunar New Year passed in the blink of an eye.
Everyone in the Shanhe family has their own things to do, and they have to prepare to return to their daily lives.
Qiu Dahai and his wife originally had no intention of going to Magic City with their son and daughter-in-law, but they couldn't resist Qiu Chuxi's plea, so they finally relented, packed up, and the whole family got in the car and arrived in Magic City together.
After spending two days with his grandparents, Shanhe returned to the capital.
At this time, the domestic sales of "Painted Skin" were approaching 300 million.
During the Spring Festival holiday, "Painted Skin" was like a mudslide that buried all the movies released at the same time without a trace.
From the first day of the Lunar New Year to the seventh day of the Lunar New Year, the single-day box office of "Painted Skin" has been maintained at more than 30 million, breaking various records with shocking momentum. The single-day box office exceeded 30 million, and the fastest broke 200 million in a single week. The box office has exceeded 200 million, and it is inevitable that it will exceed 300 million as soon as possible!
The entire Chinese film industry was stunned by the momentum of "Painted Skin". It's really going to reach 400 million. When did domestic movies start to become so crazy? We didn't feel it at all!
Chuhe Film and Television was also shocked by the unstoppable momentum of "Painted Skin". In just twelve days, "Painted Skin" harvested nearly 500 million yuan in box office revenue across Asia.
Judging from the Asian box office alone, it is no worse than "Moon". The domestic box office far exceeds "Moon", and it has an excellent reputation.
Douban is 8:50, Time is 9:11.
The media coverage of "Painted Skin" has gone crazy, and any news about the movie can attract a wave of public attention.
The biggest gain among them is of course director Xu Ke. It only took one year to go from the disastrous failure of "Seven Swords" to the unstoppable success of "Painted Skin".
From the bottom to the top, the legendary nirvana and rebirth, what Xu Ke experienced has become the most interesting topic for everyone.
In an exclusive interview with Hong Kong media, Xu Ke revealed the initial shaping process of "Painted Skin".
"After the failure of "Seven Swords", I thought I was going to be quiet for a while. As you know, I have experienced failure before, but at this time I was still hesitant and confused. At this time, Shanhe said at the three film seminars I was very touched by his speech, so I wanted to talk to him. Shanhe respected our husband and wife very much and received us grandly and formally at home. To be honest, I felt very warm at the time. We are very grateful for his help in times of need!
At that time, I was looking for him for another subject. You know that Shanhe’s screenwriting ability is undoubted. The failure of "Seven Swords" was largely due to problems with the script from the beginning. I wanted to talk to Shanhe and find out what was wrong with it. Problem, to avoid making mistakes again, it can be regarded as urgent medical treatment. We had a great time talking. We both have the same creative philosophy and believe that Chinese films need constant breakthroughs, whether it is on the technical level or the narrative level.
At the end of the conversation, he suggested that I use photography to regain my confidence, and then told us the story of "Painted Skin". The amazing thing is that this story was just an impromptu idea after he met us. This story is really interesting. It suits my directorial style. It is very similar to "A Chinese Ghost Story", but can also add a lot of computer special effects. It can be said that it is the theme I have been pursuing. I was shocked and touched at the time. For a loser, Shanhe could be like this. It's heartbreaking, I didn't expect it!
Then came "Painted Skin". I didn't expect it to receive such good reviews. Shanhe kept telling me that the base price was 300 million, and I thought he was giving me confidence..."
The reporter then asked: "Director Xu, will you continue to cooperate with Chuhe Film and Television in the future? Will there be a sequel to "Painted Skin"?"
"Of course! The production and distribution capabilities of Chuhe Film and Television are obvious to all. We worked very happily together. During the filming, Shanhe and I also chatted many times. I agree with his views on Chinese films. We have the same philosophy. As for " There should be a sequel to "Painted Skin", but I probably won't direct it because I already have new ideas..."
On the day this interview was broadcast, Jiahe’s stock reached its daily limit again.
The public's expectations for Chuhe Film and Television and Shanhe have risen to a new height.
If a random idea can lead to this, what will happen if he takes it seriously? "The Wind" is interesting!
In addition to Xu Ke, the three leading actors are also the big winners of "Painted Skin". Zhou Xun finally has a high-grossing movie and a well-known masterpiece, which proves that she can not only win awards, but also star in commercial blockbusters, completely Stabilized his position in Chinese films.
Although Chen Kun is not as outstanding as the two heroines in the movie, his star status in "Painted Skin" has skyrocketed to the top, and his salary has doubled several times. It can be said that he has caught up with Liu Ye and is ranked at the forefront of the younger generation.
