They were all so into the drama!
Chapter 431: Did your criteria for choosing a heroine depend on who you wanted to date?
With the arrival of June, the brutal fight for the May Day movie schedule has come to an end.
The final box office results of "The King of Kung Fu", "Iron Man", and "Double Food Chronicles" starring Huo Mingjie have also been released.
Despite its poor reputation, "Kung Fu King", which was scolded by Yangma's "Tenth Screening Room", still became the box office champion with a domestic box office of 170 million.
This result seems to be good, after all, in the film industry these days, there is still a popular saying of the "Billion Dollar Directors Club". The number of movies with a box office of more than 100 million can be counted on two hands for the entire year.
In addition, there are overseas markets, which add up to a box office of more than 900 million.
It sounds scary, after all, it was 2008.
But if you look at the investment of more than 400 million soft sister coins in "The King of Kung Fu", it is enough to see that this drama really cannot make any money.
Because almost half of the movie box office is taken away directly by the cinema.
Then theater chains, distributors, production companies, investment companies... will all share the remaining half of the box office!
Speaking of which, Huo Mingjie also benefited from this.
Because among the companies participating in the film shooting this time, there is a film and television production company called "Shelver", which was previously bought by Huo Mingjie.
The movie "The King of Kung Fu" did not achieve the box office success as expected this time, so the money was not shared much, but the Shelver Film and Television Company purchased by Huo Mingjie at least made some money.
As the largest investor and mainland publisher, Huayi had previously transferred a lot of interests to Lions Gate to ensure that it could get this project...
After all this, Huayi immediately became the biggest loser.
Although it was not as bad as losing my pants, the loss was really not small...
Then there is "Iron Man" in second place, with only 92 million in the mainland box office. But the box office performance on the other side of the ocean in the United States is very good, which is considered acceptable.
Moreover, the reputation of this film is very good, which also laid the foundation for the success of its sequel and even the success of the entire "Avengers" IP!
Then, after that, "A Story of Two Foods" starring Huo Mingjie, a movie with a box office of 29.7 million, can be promoted to the outside world as a box office of 30 million.
Compared with the top two box office results, the results seem a bit pitiful, not even a fraction of the "Kung Fu King".
After all, it is an unpopular subject and is not very popular with the audience.
If Huo Mingjie hadn't happened to make a big splash, the final box office of this movie would have been around 10 million.
So even with Huo Mingjie's current fame, the box office will only be so much.
The word-of-mouth review is actually okay, but it's not that great. It's not as good as "Iron Man" from the same period. The score of seven points on Douban is very fair!
The subject matter is novel and has highlights, but the plot is a bit old-fashioned and lacks suspense, making it easy for people to guess. And in order to advance the plot of the movie, the movie is also a bit exaggerated in logic...
But as some movie reviews have said, the actors in it, especially Huo Mingjie and Yu Nan, are very powerful, and every look in their eyes is interesting.
Watching the footage of the two of them, one feels like they are having a crazy show!
And aside from other things, a small-budget test film with an investment of two million can earn more than ten times the box office, which is already quite an astonishing result. What else?
People in the industry were quite shocked that Huo Mingjie's first movie could achieve such success.
Although many directors and actors who have worked with him in the industry have praised Huo Mingjie's acting skills.
But no one expected that his acting skills would be so great, that he would show no signs of timidity on the big screen, and that he would even compete with Yu Nan, a very valuable "movie queen"!
What shocked the insiders even more was that Green Shade Media, which started out as an urban idol drama, actually produced a movie with astonishing profits and a pretty good reputation!
So when Green Shade Media started preparing for its second movie "Search", agencies and actors in the industry who wanted to cooperate came in droves, hoping to get the qualification to appear in the movie.
Green Shade Media has proven its ability to make movies, and this movie "Search", which reflects Huo Mingjie's previous "cyber violence", is naturally very topical and popular.
Anyone who is not stupid knows that as long as nothing unexpected happens to this movie, the final box office results will be amazing!
In the office of Luyin Media, Huo Chengyin handed the list of suitable actresses to Huo Mingjie and asked:
"Second uncle, do you have any ideas for the heroine?"
In fact, it stands to reason that there are several actresses under his own studio.
But Gan Tingting is too gorgeous, Zhao Liying is too sweet and pure, and Tang Yan and Zhang Tianai have poor acting skills. They cannot handle the role of "Ye Lanqiu" in the movie, a stubborn, independent, arrogant and sensitive urban "white-bone spirit"!
Huo Mingjie does have a golden finger to help them get into the role, but there are always some scenes in the movie that don't require him to act opposite, right?
The requirements for film shooting are much higher than those for idol TV series.
With their looks, temperament, and acting skills, if they fall apart as soon as they leave Huo Mingjie, that's definitely not going to work...
So this time the heroine can only be found from outside!
Huo Mingjie heard the cheap nephew's question, thought for a moment, then raised his eyebrows and said hesitantly:
"How about letting Gao Yuanyuan give it a try? If not, use someone else!"
In my memory, the heroine of this movie is Gao Yuanyuan, but to be honest, her performance was actually average.
Moreover, the filming time of this movie is about four years earlier than in memory. Gao Yuanyuan's acting skills are probably more immature now. I'm afraid it won't work if she is directly recruited to star in a movie...
"Gao Yuanyuan?"
Because she has been a third party twice in a row, her reputation in the past two years has been very average...
And as a recognized beauty in the industry, her acting skills are not bad, but not much better.
No matter how you look at it, she doesn't seem to be able to shoulder the heavy responsibility of being a movie heroine!
Huo Chengyin recalled that his second uncle had sex with an actress during a movie, and he immediately looked at Huo Mingjie warily.
"Second uncle, let me ask you a question...your criteria for choosing a heroine are based on who you want to date?"
When Huo Mingjie heard this, he really felt offended, and immediately argued hurriedly:
"What's wrong with you? Am I this kind of person?"
My conscience, didn’t I just choose the actors based on my memory? Naturally, we can learn from the successful experiences in our memory. Huo Mingjie has no selfish motives...
Well, although from the results point of view, there is no difference!
Huo Chengyin chuckled twice, with an expression on his face that he had seen through but would not tell, and nodded:
"Okay, let her try it..."
He was actually not very satisfied with the choice of the heroine, but he had great faith in his second uncle's vision.
In addition, Huo Mingjie just asked her to give it a try, so Huo Chengyin said nothing more...
