Who are you calling powerful?

January 31, 2014, the first day of the Lunar New Year

Many people are celebrating the Spring Festival, and many people have also begun to get into work mode, such as several movies released during the Spring Festival.

As mentioned before, this year's Spring Festival is very busy. Based on the glory of last year's "Journey to the West: Conquer the Demons", many movies are eyeing this new and popular period.

"Journey to the West", "Macau Storm" and "Where Are We Going, Dad?"

And, a comedy movie - "Intimate Lover", produced and invested by Blue Whale, starring Nazha and Qiao Zhenyu.

Although Wei Yang and the others have bet on the Lunar New Year slot for "Cohabitation in Time and Space", it does not mean that the crew has no ideas for the Spring Festival slot.

Blue Whale's film strategy does not only revolve around Wei Yang. There are still many projects on hand. It may be difficult to single-handedly take the lead, but there is still capital to help the company test the waters.

This "Intimate Lover" is an original script written by Blue Whale's in-house screenwriter.

Recently, Xianjian Sanmei + Xiao Zhao each have strong resources, and Rouba has risen strongly, holding the big killer weapon "Run".

In contrast, although Nazar's development this year can be considered steady, there is no way to compare with the others.

But that doesn't mean Blue Whale treats her badly!

Not to mention the strong support from fashion resources, the film and television resources alone helped her win two dramas and three movies, most of which were female protagonists, including some of the Tang Dynasty dramas such as "The Ballad of the Desert".

It can be said that if Rouba hadn't participated in "Run" and the "Celebrating More Than Years" trilogy, her development would definitely not be as good as that of Naza.

In terms of film resources, Nazha is second only to Wei Yang in Blue Whale, and even Xiao Zhao is no match.

Of course, there is also the reason why Xiao Zhao is deeply involved in the field of television and is not particularly interested in movies.

But no matter what, the resources Blue Whale gave Naza were absolutely powerful, but she was just unlucky.

The biggest hope is "The Ballad of the Desert". Even with Wei Yang's reminder, it still did not escape. Due to review reasons, the broadcast was postponed.

Several other online works have not made much splash and barely have a certain influence.

There is no problem in consolidating popularity and visibility, but it is somewhat beyond the power to increase exposure and fame, or even go further.

The company is already preparing for Nazha to start doing variety shows. If she can't get into "Run" for the time being, then she can go to "Sisters Over Flowers" to show off.

In addition to "Sisters Over Flowers", the Spring Festival release "Intimate Lover" can also be regarded as a breakthrough work for Nazha.

Her previous films, except for her role as the second female lead in the "Four Famous Catchers" series, were all flops, and the one with the highest box office was only 70 million.

There are many reasons for the crime, not all of which are blamed on Nazar, but as the heroine, she cannot escape the involvement.

To be honest, the rise of Rouba has had a great impact on Naza. After all, the two styles are similar.

She can still be stable now, all thanks to the huge popularity accumulated in "East Palace" in the past, the unique fashion resources and influence of Blue Whale, and the two beautiful CPs in Xinjiang Province that she and Rouba have been tied to for many years.

Back then, Rouba had been working with her for several years, but now that the situation had reversed, it was impossible to throw her out and go it alone.

But even so, Blue Whale is not a charity inside.

If Naza continues to be so tepid, and even becomes a box office poison, the relevant resources will definitely be downgraded. By then, there is really no chance that Naza will follow Rouba and eat ashes.

Of course, this is an extreme approach and is generally not done like this.

After all, Naza is also a top-notch person trained by Blue Whale. He is a direct descendant. However, if something goes wrong for him, how can he give up so easily? It is only right to find ways to remedy and support him.

The variety show "Sisters Over Flowers" is like this, and "Intimate Lover" is a movie tailor-made for Nazha.

The plot of the movie is actually very simple, it is still the same as Cinderella meeting the overbearing president, but with some more special elements that Blue Whale likes to do.

The so-called "Intimate Lover" means that the male protagonist can hear the heroine's voice.

This is not the first time this routine has been used in movies. Liu Tianwang has a movie called "I Know Women's Hearts", in which the male protagonist can understand the voices of women.

However, "Intimate Lover" is more like the voice of the Internet, focusing on one-on-one, but it is a love version of a female channel.

The character played by Nazha is an intern who has just entered a large company. He is frizzy, ignorant, stupid and naive, and can't speak yet.

It can be said that the screenwriter of Blue Whale has good intentions. In order to take care of Naza's acting skills, he basically designed the character in her own mold.

The male protagonist played by Qiao Zhenyu is the boss of the female protagonist's internship. Due to an accident between the two, the male protagonist can hear the female protagonist's voice.

The heroine knew nothing about this, so she forced Lai Lai in her heart every day, and helped the hero solve some problems by accident.

The male protagonist also became curious about the female protagonist and made further contact with her. Then she became a happy enemy who loved to hear and see, and everyone was happy.

In Zhao Liying's words, this is a heartfelt + edited version of "Shanshan Is Coming".

The entry point is different and the plot is different, but the approach and style are very similar.

Wei Yang didn't refute it. Romance movies basically follow this approach, especially Cinderella's approach of a strong man and a weak woman. They never deviate from the same origin. It just depends on whose tricks are more novel and the details are better carved.

Blue Whale also has certain expectations for the movie "Intimate Love".

The plot and style are very mature, the cast is popular enough, and there are no problems with the performances and rhythm. There is little hope of making a big profit, but there is still hope of making a small fortune.

These four movies also form the main focus of this Spring Festival season.

There is also a movie "The Fairy Tale" co-starring Sun Niangniang, Tai Ziji, Ekin Cheng, Xiao Hei Fatty and others, and there are guest appearances by Hu Ge, Lin Xue, Huang Yi and other stars. They chose to participate in the war on the third day of the Lunar New Year.

Although this movie has a full sense of being a bad movie, it cannot stand up to the star-studded cast.

During this special period of the Spring Festival, who dares to really underestimate the star-studded family movie? Even if it cannot compete for the championship, it still has the ability to disrupt the situation.

There is also a movie version of "Beijing Love Story" which will be released on February 14th.

Chen Sicheng is the director, and the star cast is also very bright. However, this movie is more than two weeks away from the first day of the Lunar New Year, so it obviously does not pose much of a threat to the Spring Festival season, so it is ignored by many people.

The same is true for Wei Yang. Although he has not intervened in the project "Intimate Lover", he still has to care about whether he makes more or less.

So on the afternoon of New Year's Day, the Wei and Wu families, together with Li Jiahang and his wife, went to the cinema together.

Anyway, I was having fun at home, and I was having fun watching movies. Originally it was just Wei Yang, but in the end, one passed to two, two led four, and finally the whole army set off.

And there are many people like Wei Yang and others seen near the cinema.

Although watching movies during the Spring Festival has not yet formed public awareness, a considerable proportion of the audience has bought into it.

Especially in first- and second-tier cities, with the rapid development of the city, family ties are not as close as before. Fewer people visit each other during the New Year. They feel deserted at home and go out to participate in various activities to find the flavor of the New Year. Watching movies has naturally become a more popular pastime.

Wei Yang had noticed this phenomenon in the past two years, and it was even more serious this year. There were not a few people who brought their families to the movies.

Of course, this is inseparable from the contribution of "Where Are We Going, Dad?" This family entertainment variety show has attracted many viewers to the theater to follow variety shows.

This is the case for Wei Yang's eldest aunt, uncle, and cousins. Their family are all variety show lovers, and they have been following two ace variety shows. They asked Wei Yang before why he didn't make the big movie "Run".

My aunt and her family went to watch a variety show movie. Li Jiahang and his wife, who tended to prefer romantic themes, chose to watch "Intimate Lovers".

It is also possible that because Boss Wei is here, he chooses to support the company and increase his favorability.

Wei Yang had just watched the finished movie of "Intimate Lover" not long ago and didn't want to watch it again, so he hesitated and bought the tickets for "Macao".

What he didn't expect was that Wei Shan and his wife also chose the same movie. He thought they would go to a variety show or "Journey to the West: Havoc in the Sky".

"What can Monkey see? I'm tired of hearing stories."

Wei Shan was not interested in the theme of Journey to the West. His mother Wang Yunping nodded and said with great interest: "I will watch "Where Are We Going, Dad" later, and watch Zhou Runfa first."

Wei Yang: "..."

This was the first time he knew that his parents were still half fans of Fa Ge.

But it’s normal to think about it. Before and after Wei Yang was born, when his parents were young and Fa Ge was at his peak, they must have watched some of his TV series and videos here and there.

If you rarely go out to watch a movie, you will definitely choose to meet familiar stars.

Wei Yang has watched TV and movies with his parents a lot, but this was his first time in a theater.

Originally, he was worried that the old couple would be uncomfortable, but it turned out that they had already skillfully found a seat holding the popcorn, and reminded Wei Yang to mute his cell phone.

After asking a few questions, I found out that the old couple were not antiques. They had come to support Wei Yang's previous movies. Although they had not come many times, they were no strangers to the cinema.

"Liying brought us to see this. They think of us no matter what happens, unlike you, who don't worry about anything."

Wei Yang was told that he couldn't hold his head up, and even felt a little ashamed.

He consciously was filial to his parents, but he provided more material conditions and failed to fulfill many other aspects at all. On the contrary, Xiao Zhao silently performed a lot of filial piety for her, and it is no wonder that Wang Yunping always put in good words for her.

"Okay, okay, kids are not allowed to work. Stop talking and watch a movie."

Wei Shan hurriedly came out to smooth things over. He had just acquired a Yongzheng official kiln. Wei Yang was still in a good state, and his old father was not an ordinary kind one.

"You are the only one who can pretend to be a good person."

Wang Yunping muttered, feeling a little regretful in her heart. She also knew that Wei Yang was busy and did not want to blame her son. She just couldn't help but stabbed Zhao Liying out of gratitude for her usual filial piety and her son's playfulness.

Seeing that something was wrong in the atmosphere, she snarled at her husband and then turned her attention to the movie.

"How come Xu Wenqiang has aged so much?"

Wang Yunping was a little surprised to see the old Fa Ge on the screen. The biggest impressions of him by people of their generation were mostly the handsome Xu Wenqiang from Shanghai Beach or the little Ma Ge who lit up cigarettes with money.

"A man born in 1955 is almost 60 years old. How can he not age?"

Wang Yunping and his wife were a little sad when they heard this. They are old, and the celebrities they liked when they were young are also old. This world is already dominated by young people.

"Hey, this girl is pretty and fair."

"Big eyes, oval face, just a little thinner."

"A bit like that fan..."

"Yangyang, do you know her?"

When Da Tiantian appeared, the topic of the old couple immediately began to change, and they discussed this beautiful girl in a low voice. Wang Yunping even asked her son specifically.

"Ahem..."

Wei Yang didn't know whether to laugh or cry: "You really treat your son as a fairy boy. All the beautiful girls like me. Otherwise, they would look down on me."

"That's impossible to say. I know my son's charm."

Wang Yunping usually yelled and scolded Wei Yang for his philandering, and got angry when she saw his scandals. But when Wei Yang was asked to say something modest about himself or say that someone looked down on her son, the old lady refused to accept it.

In her heart, her son is the best!

Wei Yang couldn't complain about his mother's ambivalence, so he brushed off the topic and concentrated on watching the movie.

He is no stranger to "Macau". When Fatty Wang was preparing for this movie, he even called him to discuss ideas.

After "Famous", Wei Yang left a deep impression on Fatty Wang and regarded him as a film and television wizard, so he likes to communicate with each other, which can be regarded as a kind of emotional maintenance.

Boss Wei is now a well-known water pipe in the industry. Fatty Wang is naturally keen to establish a good relationship with such a financial backer so that he can attract investment when the time comes.

The movie "Macau" actually approached Wei Yang and offered him a large share, but he was declined.

The main reason is that a certain producer behind it is not very clean. Even if Wei Yang knows that the cooperation is not serious, he does not want to take risks easily.

After all, other themes are fine, but "Macau" cannot escape the word "gambling". Combined with the background of the producer, it is really too sensitive.

Even if Fatty Wang exploits the loophole very cleverly, he is still more or less suspected of propaganda, and old scores may one day be revealed.

To put it bluntly, since Wei Yang can make clean money openly, there is no need to go into troubled waters to find excitement. There is really no shortage of those two things.

If Wei Yang wants to make money, he should be shameless and make a big movie called "Running Man". He will definitely earn less than "Macau Storm".

But just because he wanted to lose face and worry about the reputation of the company and the program, he gave up this project. He even ignored a high-risk project like "Macau Storm".

"Sun Entertainment..."

Wei Yang took a deep look at the list of thanks at the end of the movie, and wondered whether he should build momentum for the other party in advance, spread his name, and eliminate a cancer for the industry.

I just don’t know how deep the water is here, and if this kind of company doesn’t get rid of the boss behind it, even if it is exposed, it will just change to another leather company.

If the sun becomes the moon or the stars, if you keep a low profile and reduce your sense of presence, how many people will care about you.

Wei Yang came out of the movie theater and watched "Journey to the West: Havoc in Heaven" again.

He had never seen this movie in his previous life, but had only seen some clips. This time he had gained a lot of experience.

Dare to make trouble in the sky refers to the Bull Demon King, and Sun Wukong is the one who subdues and eliminates demons.

Whenever he sees this kind of plot, Wei Yang can't help but side with Teacher Six.

Adaptation is not random editing, drama is not nonsense!

This is all something to apologize for...
