The entertainment industry shouldn't be like this

Chapter 205 Loss and Finalization

"Usurping the throne" requires the usurper to have a firm will and strong ambition, as well as the right time.

More importantly, you must have enough patience.

Therefore, neither Wang Wei nor Lao Wang expects China Media to "turn enemies into allies" overnight.

Therefore, Lao Wang continued to stay in the company to take charge of the overall situation, and Wang Wei quickly returned to the "Tang" crew.

The crew seemed to be doing business as usual.

Wang Wei also checked the footage shot by Lao Xu and found that except for a few shots that may need to be adjusted, most of the footage shot was fine.

Moreover, although it was not as good as Wang Wei's sprint, everyone was in good condition, but they also maintained normal progress and did not cause delays.

But it was another thing Lao Xu mentioned that caught his attention——

"While you were away, the gossip about our Dunhuang and Five Big Bangs also spread to the crew, which caused many actors to feel worried and in a very bad state."

The problem is, Dunhuang can obviously make more money.

This is still the most superficial.

Different from movies directed by ordinary directors, to some extent, because of the continuous success and the label produced by Wang Wei, original movies have the attributes of sequel movies.

The simplest example is that the same box office of 300 million is obtained in one or two weeks and in one month. The money received in Dunhuang is completely different.

Start over...

"Indeed!" Wang Wei did not hesitate to admit it.

"Click! Passed!"

…

"Director, wait a minute, I can do it again."

Wang Wei put the scene of "Tang Bohu fighting the fatal scholar" at the end, since they could "destroy" the scene as they pleased.

With everyone's attention, Wang Wei stood up from behind the monitor, held a loudspeaker and smiled: "Thank you for your hard work, I announce that "Tang Bohu Spots Autumn Fragrance" has officially been completed!"

However, the evil director stopped abruptly and drove them away with the words "Hurry up and set up the scene".

"Ka! What's going on with Wia? How do you want them to fight with each other like this?"

This number even made Zhou Lin, who had just come over, pick his teeth!

——You know, after the introduction of Dunhuang’s new incentive plan, they are also eligible to enjoy income dividends. Can you not feel the same way?

Even though what is presented to the audience is a thrilling duel scene, in reality, it is not only not "draining", but also has various "clicks"——

Fortunately, the overall atmosphere of the crew was relatively relaxed, and the deputy director, Old Xu, was more attentive and discovered the situation in time. Then, the old and intimate uncle Xu personally provided psychological counseling to the panicked crew.

One can imagine how pitiful the overseas box office of "Labyrinth of the Heart", which was "snubbed" by domestic mainstream media, would be.

He actually didn't say much else, but pointed out one thing -

——It's like there is an invisible chain tied around your neck, you can't break free, and you can't break with fate, so you can only laugh at yourself in order to live a slightly more comfortable life.

"..."

The second time...

The assistant director is right - it doesn't matter if you are suppressed, as long as the work is hard enough, you will eventually get ahead.

Although the crew is filming in a closed environment, this closure is only for outsiders such as reporters, and cannot stop the spread of news about our own people.

"Ka! Xiao Ming, control your expression... Diaowei Ya can't stand it anymore, right? If not, take a rest first."

Wang Wei was not too surprised by this.

Wang Wei raised a finger: "This wave of suppression by the Big Five has cost us at least 100 million. I'm talking about profits."

This means that a little publicity obstacle will not affect the movie's success; instead, it is the performance of the actors that will directly affect whether the movie can continue to be a hit.

He knew that the company's previous domestic box office forecast for this film was to start at 300 million;

What now? If the final box office reaches 300 million, it will be the best.

On the one hand, after the previous running-in, the crew's cooperation has become more tacit;

On the other hand, under the guidance of Zhou Qiming, the actors on the same stage, especially those in supporting roles, all performed the "epileptic" charm.

Wang Wei doubted that without Zhou Qiming, other actors would be able to perform such a crazy performance, but this did not hinder the entire crew's filming progress at a very fast pace.

On the surface, Lao Xu was pleased, but in his heart he just wanted to sigh.

——It cannot be said that they are completely following the trend, but within Asia, the media in various countries are greatly influenced by China's mainstream media. Only the things that China's mainstream media are hyping up will make them pay more attention.

"Crazy" is different from "crazy" and "crazy". "Crazy" means a real mental problem, "crazy" is a self-confident expansion, and "mad" is a pretentious joke that sees through but has no other way out.

In this era, box office is the basis for a film’s subsequent revenue!

After Wang Wei returned to the crew, the filming of "Tang Bohu Spots Autumn Fragrance" began to enter the smoothest and most efficient stage.

"Pa bang bang..."

In particular, the news that "Maze of the Heart" exceeded 200 million due to its quality despite limited publicity followed closely, and everyone's anxiety seemed to have completely disappeared.

Then, unknowingly, the filming of this movie finally ushered in the last few shots!

When the last shot was taken, Zhou Qiming was still hanging from the wire, and other staff members were waiting with bated breath.

To put it bluntly, only if the box office is popular, then the subsequent DVDs and copyrights can be sold at a good price. Naturally, people in the surrounding area will buy it, and image licensing will be a matter of course.

A heart-to-heart conversation helped everyone let go of their burdens.

Another less eye-catching situation is that the overseas distribution of "Labyrinth of the Heart", even in the Chinese-speaking cultural circle, has been "cold".

It is definitely impossible for normal people not to panic at all when they hear that they are facing off against the five major forces at the same time.

This is a work directed by Wang Wei himself!

Of course, this is affected by factors such as the local social structure, but the more important reason is that the film's momentum is too weak and not attractive to overseas audiences.

At this time, in front of Wang Wei, he asked directly: "The results of "Maze of the Heart" seem to be good, but we still suffered a big loss, right?"

"Oh yeah!"

"Sorry, sorry, the angle has been increased..."

“Fortunately, it’s not without additional benefits.”

"Ka! Xiao Ming, you have to use the tip of your spear to pick away the tip of his sword, not his shoulder!"

"I'm sorry, director, it's mainly...a subconscious reaction."

Otherwise, the proportion of box office in the revenue of the Big Five is getting smaller and smaller. Why do the Big Five still attach so much importance to box office performance?

It is true that from the perspective of outsiders, Dunhuang is still making money, and it is quite a lot!

Some cheered, some applauded, and of course some were disappointed.

One sentence successfully aroused the curiosity of the two of them.

The filming of this movie was not difficult, and many times it was even full of joy. But work is work after all, and work has pressure.

The completion of filming means that many of them can finally take off the pressure and relax.

Of course, this does not include Wang Wei.

He didn't even have time to give himself a day or two off before he was about to participate in another "war" - an attack on the Tianma Award!
