Chapter 883: What the Hell? Another Big Trap?

The time came on the morning of the 26th.

Early in the morning, there were already several eye-catching hot search news items on the hot search list.

"Jointly produced by Warner and DC, the Hollywood imported blockbuster "Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice" was released on its first day yesterday, with a box office revenue of 120 million yuan!"

"Reprinted from The Hollywood Daily, "Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice" grossed US$81.558 million at the box office on its first day of release in North America!"

"The film's reputation has been very polarizing. The IMDb reputation score has plummeted from 9.3 to 7.5. Many passersby said that the content of the film is too obscure and difficult to understand, and is far less clear than the Marvel series of movies."

Looking around, there will be many people posting film analysis of "Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice" online.

If you have the patience to read the tens of thousands of words of analysis first, you will indeed have a good feeling and experience during the movie watching.

However, how many ordinary viewers would do this?

Except for those very loyal DC fans, how can ordinary viewers read the tens of thousands of words of film analysis?

What's more, in most cases, the analysis is not reliable or clear.

Based on this, Chen Fei can already draw a conclusion.

Both: The box office performance of "Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice" will definitely be very poor!

Time soon came to the 27th.

As Chen Fei expected, the box office of "Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice" plummeted by 40% on the second day in North America! The drop is very serious!

8155.8, 5065.7, 3379.1, 1504…

When the time came to March 29, the "disaster" had already struck.

The collapse of the North American box office caused the reputation of "Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice" to quickly collapse.

Just 4 days later, the lMDb score has dropped to 6.1 points, and the Rotten Tomatoes freshness rating is only 25%.

Due to the lack of box office stamina, the film's overall audience rating dropped from A+ to B, and the estimated North American box office drop also dropped from US$500 million to around US$300 million.

At this time, its domestic box office has dropped from the initial RMB 120 million to the current RMB 26.33 million.

According to comprehensive estimates, with box office + offline operations, "Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice" should not suffer losses, and may even generate a certain amount of profit. After all, this is a combination of Batman + Superman!

However, the reputation of this Hollywood blockbuster has completely collapsed!

Looking around, on many social platforms at home and abroad, many passers-by and viewers are expressing their own comments and opinions:

"As Director Chen said, this movie is really unfriendly to people who have never read the comics. Zack Snyder should have made a movie specifically for DC Comics fans, right?"

"When I hear 'Martha,' I want to laugh. If I get mugged on the streets of Los Angeles in the future, can I also shout 'Martha'?"

"Warner, DC, do your executives know how to surf the Internet? Please read my review. This is not a polarizing film, this is a fight! A pure fight!"

"Judging from the box office data, the value of what Director Chen said at the premiere is still skyrocketing!"

"DC should really ask Fei to be the chief content executive. Look at Marvel, they have a real superhero system."

…

Feiyue Film and Television, in the project team of "La La Land".

After skillfully playing a set of piano pieces, Chen Fei took his laptop phone and looked through his social media platform.

Looking around, all the DC fans surrounding their accounts have retreated.

Because facts have proven that his evaluation of the movie "Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice" is correct. This movie is not for ordinary audiences at all.

On the contrary, many fans were filled with hatred and love, and went to Warner and DC to directly start a fight:

"What on earth are the management of Warner and DC doing for a living? Don't you know that "Batman v Superman" carries the burden of developing the entire DC universe? So that's what you do?"

"'Green Lantern' was messed up, 'Batman v Superman' was messed up, the Justice League plan is a mess, I really can't imagine how you can compete with Marvel?"

"I really didn't expect that in recent years, DC's most successful film was only one "Dark Knight"! Look at Marvel? "Iron Man", "Captain America", "Thor", "Avengers" ...This is true power!”

"Okay, I officially announce that I am no longer a fan of DC and I am going to the Marvel camp."

"DC is finished, all thanks to the ridiculous brains of Warner and DC management!"

Although the fans outside the network were not as harsh as the domestic fans, their words were also very sharp and went straight into the hearts of Warner and DC management.

Chen Fei looked very happy.

He knew this would be the case, and sure enough, it really came true.

Ever since Warner replaced a new group of management, there have been an endless stream of various tricks, which is astonishing to watch.

And these movies that suffered losses one after another and collapsed in reputation are the best evidence!

Of course, if the established foreign film company that currently operates the most pornographic films is Warner, then the domestic one is undoubtedly China Film.

Looking at the latest announcement released by China Film Group Corporation, Chen Fei couldn't help but want to observe three seconds of silence for La Suikang.

"The action crime film "Pursuit," co-produced by China Film, Media Asia, and Japanese companies and directed by director Wu Yu, has been officially approved today and casting will begin."

"The script of "Pursuit" is adapted from the novel "Crossing the Angry River" by Japanese writer Nishimura Toshiyuki. It tells the story of international lawyer Du Qiu who was framed for a murder case, chose to resist arrest and decided to find out the truth..."

"Forty years ago, Japanese director Junya Sato won the Huabiao Film Award for Outstanding Translated Foreign Language Film with the first version of "Pursuit," which became a huge hit and a huge success!"

"This version of "Pursuit" directed by director Wu Yu will deviate from the original content and greatly adapt the plot, making the plot biased toward action, suspense, and crime themes that he is good at..."

"The movie "Pursuit" is a Sino-Japanese co-production. Japanese actor Masaharu Fukuyama has been confirmed to play the role of "Police Detective". The domestic actors have not yet been determined. Mainland agencies are welcome to recommend actors for casting."

Looking at the news on the Internet, Chen Fei really couldn't understand what La Sheikang was thinking.

Not long after the box office disasters of "Red Cliff" and "Tai Ping Huan", he actually stepped into the big pit set by Wu Yu again.

What on earth was he thinking?

And it’s a remake of a Japanese movie from 40 years ago?

Even if you think about it with your feet, you know that this thing will definitely not be successful!

Is the current film market really the same as it was 40 years ago?

What other tribute to Japanese actor Ken Takakura? If you miss him so much, why don't you go with him to see the emperor?

"It's so hard to persuade the damn ghost!"

After muttering something, Chen Fei immediately turned off the computer and began to practice the piano pieces that needed to be presented in the movie.

…

Unlike Chen Fei's disdain, the outside world is still paying quite a lot of attention to Wu Yu's new movie at this time.

After all, this movie had already been successful 40 years ago, and Wu Yu also adapted it into the action and suspense genre films that he is best at. Maybe there is hope of repeating the success 40 years ago.

"'Wading the Angry Sea'?"

Zhang Ziyi looked at the original novel in her hand, murmuring to herself, and even more stories came to mind.

She actually doesn't want to continue to cooperate with Wu Yu, because "Tai Ping Wheel" really screwed her up too badly.

At first, she deliberately marketed herself as the "Kate Winslet" of the East, but in the end she was laughed at by netizens for a long time.

And all of this was caused by Wu Yu, he was the complete initiator!

Now that Wu Yu is starting a new movie, who knows if he will make another bad movie?

Just as he was thinking about it, the cell phone on the table suddenly rang.

Zhang Ziyi quickly reached out and took it. After taking a look at the caller ID, her heartbeat suddenly accelerated!

"Hello? Sister Hong?"

Although Chen Hong's voice hadn't come yet, Zhang Ziyi felt inexplicably like she was about to go to the execution ground.

If her guess was correct, Chen Hong must have called to inform her whether she had passed the audition.

The next second, the "death penalty" token was thrown over: "Zi Yi, I'm sorry, Brother Kai said that there is no problem with your acting skills, but there is really a big gap between your figure and Yang Guifei. After all, Sheng Women in the Tang Dynasty usually regard plumpness as their beauty, I think you should also know this..."

Chen Hong explained a lot, but only five words fell on Zhang Ziyi's ears.

"Failed the audition!"

A few minutes later, Zhang Ziyi responded very lonely: "Okay, I understand, Sister Hong, you go ahead and do your work first."

"Okay, if there is another suitable role in the future, I will contact you as soon as possible." After the call, Zhang Ziyi put the phone on the table in a lonely manner, her face full of reluctance and helplessness.

It was a hard condition that her figure was not up to standard, and she had no way to change it.

She can lose weight in a short period of time, but gaining weight is not easy, and gaining weight does not mean she can pass the audition...

Therefore, she has completely missed out on "Legend of the Demonic Cat".

"well!"

With a long sigh, Zhang Ziyi silently picked up "Crossing the Angry Sea" and began to read it.

At this time, the most important thing is to find an opportunity to come back first. It is no longer up to her to pick and choose.

…

At the same time, Shengkai Pictures.

Looking at Chen Hong returning from the audition room, Brother Chen Kai raised his head slightly and asked proactively: "How is it? Have you contacted me?"

"Yeah." Chen Hong responded and changed the topic: "I can understand that Zhang Ziyi and Li Bingbin are not suitable. After all, their figures are indeed not up to standard, but isn't Fan Bingbing also suitable?"

"Oh." Brother Chen Kai sighed, shook his head and said, "If she had just debuted, she would have been quite suitable. Both her figure and appearance fit very well with Concubine Yang.

But she can't do it now. Whose Yang Guifei has a sense of prostitution in her body? This is not what I want, and it is not what she can perform. "

Chen Hong opened his mouth, but was speechless.

She was also present during Fan Bingbing's audition a few days ago. Indeed, that woman was so horny that she seemed to exude a "vixen" feeling all over her body. There was no trace of "purity" at all.

"Then what should we do now? How about letting Yuanyuan come in?"

"Wait a little longer." Brother Chen Kai still had a glimmer of hope: "Tomorrow Wang Huiling will bring a group of Taiwanese actors to audition, maybe there will be suitable ones among them."

"Taiwan? There doesn't seem to be anything suitable there?"

Chen Hong thought of many actresses from Taiwan, but she couldn't think of any suitable candidates.

Brother Chen Kai took a sip of water from the thermos cup and said slowly: "It doesn't have to be a famous actress. As long as the image, temperament and acting skills are suitable, new debut and not very popular ones are fine."

Hearing this, Chen Hong was speechless.

...

When it came to the 30th, the news of the cinema market once again occupied the pages of major entertainment news.

"The animated film "Zootopia" produced by Walt Disney has officially exceeded 1.5 billion yuan in domestic box office after 26 days of release, ranking No. 1 in the March movie box office list!"

"The action, adventure, and fantasy film "Gods of Egypt" jointly produced by Summit Entertainment, LeTV Pictures, and Lionsgate has been completely removed from the theaters due to the exhaustion of its box office potential, and the total box office closed at 234 million yuan."

"The daily new box office of the movie "The Mermaid" has dropped to 520,000, with a total box office of 3.358 billion yuan, and there are 10 days left before the key extension ends."

"Many domestic films such as "Hot Pot Heroes", "My Agent Grandpa", and "My Upper Bunk Brother" will start the box office competition on April 1!"

"The Hollywood imported blockbuster "London Has Fallen" announced that it will be released on April 8, "The Jungle Book" announced that it will be released on April 15, and "Captain America 3" officially announced that it will be released on May 6."

As April is about to kick off, the movie market is so lively.

Domestic blockbusters and imported blockbusters complement each other, and it seems that they are going to compete with each other!

At the same time, Chen Fei also saw two news about Feiyue Film and Television TV series on a not-so-large page.

"Exclusively produced by Feiyue Film and Television, the youth-themed web drama "Together with You 2" has been online for 35 days, and the total number of views has exceeded 2 billion times!"

"Exclusively produced by Feiyue Film and Television, the crime-themed web drama "Undocumented Crime" co-starred by Qin Hao, Deng Jiajia, Yao Lu, Dai Xu, Wang Zhener and others will be launched on Youku platform on May 1."

Looking at these complicated and dense film and television news, Chen Fei couldn't help but feel a little emotional.

Since the cinema market was repeatedly expanded at the beginning of this year, the future of the domestic film and television industry has become more and more brilliant. This industry seems to have entered an era where you can make a lot of money with just a scoop in an instant.

I just don't know, in this process of accelerated development, will anyone take this opportunity to ruthlessly cut off those unlucky people who have a lot of money in their hands?

Time quickly came to the evening.

After leaving the company, Chen Fei returned to the villa.

At this time, Liu Yifei had already packed her luggage and was waiting for him to go to Zhejiang together after he returned.

"La La Land" will be filmed in Hengdian, which was determined a long time ago. The relevant filming team is already in place, and only the director and actors can be present.

The business car quickly stopped at the door of the villa, and Liu Yifei, who had been waiting for a long time, came out with her assistant, pulling two suitcases.

Chen Fei opened the car door, stretched out his hand to pull Liu Yifei up, and then handed her the plane ticket he had bought in advance.

"Did you bring your ID card?"

"Yeah, don't worry, I'm not the kind of person who loses things."

Hearing this, Chen Fei laughed, and really couldn't bear to hit her.

For someone who forgets to bring his cell phone when he goes out, it is normal to forget his ID card. This is Liu Yifei's "criminal record".

Liu Yifei's cheeks turned red: "What are you laughing at? Are you laughing at me?"

"No!" Chen Fei quickly denied: "I was just thinking that I would be able to film with you again soon, so I was very happy, and then I laughed."

"Is that so?"

Although Miss Liu was a little unsure, she silently took back her hand that had already stretched to Chen Fei's waist.

Seeing this, Chen Fei was relieved and secretly praised himself for being so smart.

This reason is simply impeccable!

...

As the night gradually darkened, the flight from the capital to Hengdian took off smoothly.

At the same time, just as Chen Fei and Liu Yifei left the capital, many directors, actors, celebrities, etc. who were currently in the capital, all received invitations to the shareholders' meeting from LeTV.

"Major shareholders" such as Zhang Yimou, Guo Jingming, and Huang Xiaoming even received calls from Zhang Zhao himself!

"Mr. Zhang, what is the reason for holding this shareholders' meeting? Is the company going to go public?"

Zhang Yimou's voice was filled with impatience.

Because he was really tired of being poor.

After leaving Zhang Weiping's control, he finally became a major shareholder of LeTV Pictures. Isn't it for financial freedom?

Now as long as LeTV Pictures can go public smoothly, with the original shares in his hands, he can easily achieve a leap and surge in his net worth!

Therefore, he may be the most urgent and eager one among all the "star shareholders" to witness LeTV Pictures' listing as soon as possible.

"Haha, Director Zhang can't wait?"

On the other end of the phone, Zhang Zhao said in a brisk tone, with a hint of bewitching: "You guessed right, this shareholders' meeting is held for the company's listing.

I can give you a little hint in advance. Mr. Jia will also attend this shareholders' meeting, and there will be a very important and very favorable news for shareholders to be announced! "

"Haha, good, that's great, I like to hear good news!"

At this time, Zhang Yimou could no longer hide his excitement and excitement.

Because if nothing unexpected happens, at this shareholders' meeting, Jia Yueting will definitely announce a new method for the company to go public.

Once the listing is successful, then according to the shares held by all celebrity shareholders, LeTV Pictures will inevitably become a presence comparable to Huayi, or even surpass Huayi.

The market value of tens of billions, or even hundreds of billions, will be realized one by one.

By then, all shareholders who participated in the listing process of LeTV Pictures, without exception, will be promoted to billionaires, with countless wealth and glory!

That night, many celebrity shareholders were so excited that they couldn't even sleep, all imagining the moment when their wealth would skyrocket!
