Chapter 282 The Eating Habits of "The Great Earthquake"
The crew of Painted Skin 2.
Wu Ershan sat behind the monitor.
In the camera, Zeng Li, wearing a red wedding dress and a golden mask, lay on the ground.
She embraced Zhou Xun, who was covered in white hair, and whispered...
Next to him was Huo Xin, who was wearing soft armor and had his eyes tied with cloth strips.
An employee of Tiangong Color nodded to Wu Ershan, who instantly understood what he meant.
"Click."
Wu Ershan shouted hard.
All of a sudden, everyone's tense nerves relaxed.
"Director, is it passed?" Zeng Li asked.
Wu Ershan nodded with a smile on his face, "Passed."
"I declare that the movie Painted Skin 2 is officially finished today!"
Wu Ershan completely followed the rhythm of Lin Nan's filming of Painted Skin 1 and required himself.
He wanted to learn Lin Nan's rhythm, so that he could improve himself.
The media reporters who visited the crew were already writing articles.
…
"The ancient costume fantasy blockbuster, Painted Skin 2, finished filming today."
"Tiangong Color staff have returned to the capital with the film negatives and are about to start post-production special effects."
…
Even though he was mentally prepared, Lin Nan was still a little shocked when he received the call from Jiang Xingrou.
Wu Ershan said that it would be completed in two months, and it really finished filming on time.
"You can hold the wrap-up party over there, so you don't have to come back to hold it."
Lin Nan instructed, to save trouble when he came back.
"Okay, Director Lin."
…
In the current movie information, Lucy is still on the front page, but it is not the only headline.
The news of Earthquake has already surpassed the latter.
Huayi once again emphasized that this movie is not a disaster movie, and they do not make money with "pain".
Many people in the industry sneered at this, and if they have the ability, don't "book the theater"!
Time passed day by day, and the release of Earthquake was getting closer and closer.
For Liu Yifei, these twenty days were more tiring than her past few years.
"Every day when I open my eyes, the first thing I do is to check yesterday's data. Every day before going to bed, I think about the box office while lying in bed.
After it's off the screen, I'm going to sleep well for three days. No one can call me, not even you!"
Miss Liu said unhappily, holding the rice bowl, and then took a bite of rice.
Lin Nan glanced at Liu Yifei, who must have lost several pounds recently...
...
It was the 22nd, and Lucy had been released for three weeks.
The box office in the third week obviously dropped a lot, but the total box office also reached a very critical number.
381 million.
The media was restless.
"Lucy's box office has reached 381 million, and 400 million is just around the corner."
"Earthquake" is released today. Can Lucy cross the 400 million mark?"
...
In any case, with this movie, Liu Yifei has reached a height that actresses of the same age cannot reach.
"Is it almost 400 million?" Many actresses are a little late to realize it.
"This is not a bad thing." Zeng Jia said to Yang Mi in the "Palace" crew.
The latter didn't quite understand, "Why do you say that?"
In Yang Mi's opinion, among the same group of actresses, Liu Yifei has gone further and further away.
Even her back is about to disappear.
"The further she goes, the better it will be for you. At least you don't have to worry about her taking away the resources. I guess she doesn't care about them either..."
Zeng Jia felt a little self-deceiving when she said this.
Yang Mi smiled bitterly and shook her head, "What good thing is this?"
Many actors were discussing the box office of "Lucy" and Liu Yifei.
"She's amazing. She's still so young!" an actress said with emotion.
"Yaya, you can't just look at the surface of things.
Liu Yifei is indeed very popular. If I can invite her to my TV series, I'll wake up with a smile in my dreams.
But in terms of movies, Director Lin Nan is the key..."
After Yu Zheng finished speaking to Tong Liya, he glanced in Yang Mi's direction.
"Facts have proved that signing with a good company is very important..."
Tong Liya also glanced at Yang Mi. She knew that this person was from Shanhai Media.
I have already acted in two films produced by Lin Nan Pictures. In ten days, "The Blade of the Assassin" will also be released.
…………
On the first day of the release of "Earthquake", many media paid attention to it.
When the first show ended in the morning, there were reports on the Internet.
Most theaters had an attendance rate of about 75%, and a few even reached 90%, or even higher!
This data is a bit scary at first.
Many colleagues were jealous, and they all knew what was going on.
Although the theater chain did not reduce the screening of "Lucy", the audience would definitely want to go in and take a look at the "Earthquake".
Lin Nan looked at the reviews. Although Huayi repeatedly emphasized that this was not a disaster film, most people still watched it as a disaster film.
In terms of tear-jerking, it was indeed tear-jerking.
The next day, the first-day box office of "Earthquake" came out.
"On the first day, Earthquake earned 36.2 million yuan, and it was the best movie ever."
"Lucy's box office was cut in half, and it closed at 6.2 million yuan yesterday. 400 million yuan is still not a problem..."
...
Liu Yifei and Shu Chang, two silly girls, went to see Earthquake, and then came back with red eyes.
Girls are mostly emotional, and they are easily infected by this kind of disaster movie.
The next day, Earthquake closed at 44.5 million, and the whole industry was in a state of panic.
This has broken the single-day box office record for domestic films!
Lin Nan heard from Ye Ning that the theater had been booked, that is, the attendance rate was 100%, and there was no empty seat...
However, the box office of Lucy did not drop too much, and it was still 5.1 million.
At this rate, in two days, Liu Yifei will be the heroine of a 400 million box office movie.
On the third day, Earthquake was still 46 million, which felt unreal.
The industry has determined that this movie will definitely surpass The Martian and become the new record holder for domestic films.
Huayi also took advantage of this momentum and came out to express that it would definitely push the box office record forward by a big step.
This circle is sometimes really interesting.
Lin Nan didn't have any ideas, but there were quite a few people who called to comfort him.
"His box office is too watery, more than half of it is spent by various units, just like the tribute film of Mr. Han..." Ning Hao complained.
"When my Let the Bullets Fly is released, I'll kill him. Brother, I think this movie is good after watching it myself."
Jiang Wen is really not modest at all.
…………
Lin Nan's reply to everyone was that he didn't care.
But after listening to each one, he said more words of comfort, which was very strange.
The result of 180 million in 4 days left the entire film industry speechless.
No matter where the box office came from, others made money, and it was a huge profit.
"The latest news is that the box office of Lucy has reached 403 million."
"Liu Yifei has become the first female lead in a domestic movie with a box office of 400 million..."
……
Lin Nan knew that at this point, Lucy was also fixed, and he only had to wait until the end of the movie to see the final data.
After careful consideration, Lu Yang decided to directly release "The Sword of the Assassin" without holding a premiere.
After all, the focus of the film market is on "Earthquake".
And Liu Yifei, the producer, has helped promote it on Weibo and on TV shows.
Thanks to Lucy and Liu Yifei, Blade of the Assassin has received a lot of exposure.
…
The news that the premiere of My Beautiful Boss will be held on the 29th of the month has long been spread.
Many filmmakers think Lu Zheng is stubborn and really needs to: face the "earthquake" head on!
Lin Nan knows that at least in terms of scheduling, Wanda will leave a share for this movie, most likely the part left after Lucy is off the screen.
He suddenly thought of something.
At the end of this year, when Huayi is going to distribute annual dividends, it seems that he will have a share, 8 million shares.
"Fuck, that's interesting!"
…
Here, "Earthquake" is still being screened, and I heard that a seminar is about to be held.
The content of the discussion is, why can "Earthquake" achieve such brilliant results? Can it be replicated in the future?
Lin Nan thinks that these people are either idle or old and their brains are not working well, and this kind of brain-dead problem needs to be discussed.
Fortunately, he quit the association.
…
"The Great Earthquake" continues to refresh the perception of the film industry.
In 7 days, the box office exceeded 300 million.
At this time, many filmmakers have complained online that this "booking" method is only harmful to the film industry and not beneficial.
Lin Nan also went to China Film to inquire, and the screening rate has exceeded 45%, which is really unhealthy.
"There are many filmmakers and companies who have complained to the top these two days. The screening rate will drop a little by the 1st of next month at the latest.
As for the return to normal levels, it is estimated that it will take until the end of the first week of next month."
When Han Sanping said this, there was also a helpless smile on his face.
After all, this movie is a rare local government that occupies the main investment funds, and some situations must be taken care of.
Lin Nan nodded, it should not have much impact on "The Sword of the Assassin".
At this time, Han Sanping added another sentence.
"However, "The Great Earthquake" has been confirmed to be postponed to the end of August, and the release time is 40 days."
"Haha, Mr. Han, China Film should just postpone it to September 20, which is exactly two months long."
Lin Nan said unhappily.
This is really the most ugly movie in recent years. Even The Founding of a Republic didn’t do this!
“It’s only 10 days…”
Han Sanping smiled bitterly. The news has not been announced yet. Once it is announced, it will probably be criticized again.
