my time as a director

"This is the real blockbuster, the special effects of the end of the world are too real!"

...

At the banquet after the premiere, Li Qian accepted compliments from his peers in the industry.

He had a drink with several company bosses, "Thank you all bosses for your support. In fact, compared with most Hollywood blockbusters, the difficulty is not that big."

"Director Li is being modest."

Everyone must not believe it. Turning the bustling modern international metropolis into a deserted lonely city and showing it on the big screen, can it be so simple?

Li Qian smiled and said nothing. Although they have been in the industry for many years, they have never studied special effects.

It is not a particularly difficult special effect. It is mainly time-consuming, expensive, and labor-intensive. It is troublesome but not difficult.

"Then congratulate Director Li in advance for his box office success. In my opinion, I am a legend and can break through at least [-] million!"

"Sixty million is not enough. I don't think [-] million has escaped. The new box office record for domestic movies is none other than Director Li."

......

The celebration banquet is not for eating, but for chatting and bragging.

For everyone's compliments and congratulations, Li Qian also accepted all the compliments, regardless of the scene or sincerity.

Anyway, even if he is more modest, it's the same, the more modest he is, the more bragging he will be.

Yu Dong, Wang Changtian, Li Ming and others all came. Although Huayang Media's royal brothers didn't come, Chen Guofu came, and Zhang Zhao, who was the CEO of Leshi Pictures, also came.

Anyway, they are all invited, and more than 3000 seats are enough.

After the commercial bragging, Wang Changtian also took the initiative to reveal the matter of a new film under Guangxian. Director Chen Jiashang plans to invite Deng Chao and Sun Li to co-star as the male and female protagonists.

What does this mean?

This film was originally acted by the two of them, but Li Qian and Wang Changtian terminated their cooperation, and it was a bit strange that they were still cast as the leading roles.

After all, Wang Changtian is quite narrow-minded. Zhang Zhao joined Guangxian and founded Guangxian Films. After the company got on the right track, it was kicked out, and Guangxian Media will be listed next year.

Or, is it a show of favor?

There is only one possibility.

"Don't worry if Director Wang is looking for them, you won't be disappointed." Li Qian said with a smile.

Movies... there is no doubt that they are bad movies, but the cost is low, so they shouldn't lose much.

No loss means no loss, no loss means profit.

He was very happy to see Li Qian, and Wang Changtian also said sincerely, "Deng Chao has made a lot of good movies in the past two years, and most of them are directed by Li, so I let Chen Jiashang feel relieved to use him."

He made it clear that he was good to him, but it was useless. The film originally belonged to Deng Chao and his wife.

I dealt with it one after another, and also dealt with the actors who came to join me.

Hu Ge, Liu Yufei and other actors from the Time Planning Bureau also came, looking at Li Qian with a little embarrassment and envy.

"Sissy has already acted as the king of kung fu. Hu Ge, this is the first time for you to act as the leading actor in a movie. How do you feel about today's premiere?" Li Qian asked with a smile.

"The scale is huge, and the scene is even hotter than the king of kung fu." Liu Yufei tried to put on a ladylike reply.

"It's like a scene in a dream." Hu Ge has a calmness that doesn't match his age, which is completely inconsistent with the lively image in the previous TV series, but no matter how calm he is, the excitement and anticipation in his eyes can't be hidden.

Li Qian laughed, "Then your dream will come true soon, although it may be a little short, so you can wait for the Spring Festival with peace of mind."

......

I didn't chat with them too much, they were obviously the same age, Hu Ge was two years older than Li Qian, but they were all a bit reserved.

After the time planning bureau was finalized, Guo Fan told Li Qian complacently that the majesty of his director overwhelmed all the actors, and the crew managed very well.

He couldn't even let go of Guo Fan, let alone Li Qian.

uninteresting.

Li Qian chatted with Du Yang again about online promotion. After all, Perfect Film and Television went through some turmoil and personnel changes, and the general publicity team was taken away by Song Ge.

Although I have absolute confidence in the film, publicity is still essential.

"Director Li, if You Are the One 2 has invested a lot in the online promotion, the momentum is too big, do we really not need to prepare?" Du Yang was still a little worried.

Although they were the ones doing the publicity, Li Qian had to approve all the plans and proposals. After all, Li Qian paid for it.

Li Qian said before that there is no need to do targeted marketing for other films in the same period, and Du Yang has no objection. After three successful and well-received films for three consecutive years, Li Qian's box office appeal is beyond doubt.

After all, even the films he supervised are box office guarantees, let alone directing them himself.

But now, letting the bullets fly at the box office and explode, it is likely to hit the record set by the Tangshan Earthquake, and the word-of-mouth is even worse.

The perfect combination of art and business.

Although the box office of If You Are the One 2 has not yet come out on the first day, each company keeps in touch with the theaters at this time. According to the attendance rate of the theaters, they also know how it is selling.

According to feedback from some theaters, the attendance rate of If You Are the One 2 is higher than Let the Bullets Fly.

Although Let the Bullets Fly has been released for two weeks, but based on the working days of the previous two days, there should still be 1500 million today.

If You Are the One has more than 50 rows of movies, let the bullets fly close to 30, and if the attendance rate is higher, it may exceed 3000 million on the first day.

In addition, Huayang Media invested a huge amount of publicity expenses, and on the first day, it directly achieved positive reviews from the entire network...not just positive reviews, but divine reviews.

What Ma Xiaogang's best work, the best movie of the year, a combination of top-notch comedy and top-notch art.

Although Du Yang had worked in Huayang for several years and was also friends with Ma Xiaogang, he felt ashamed for him.

The movie is not bad. If you spend money regardless of the cost to maintain the publicity, it is not impossible to do it in the first few days.

These two opponents are under a lot of pressure.

But Li Qian waved his hand and said with a smile, "There is no need to change, just do what you want, just follow the steps to promote it, there is no need for other things, you have to have confidence in the audience."

The best publicity is the spontaneous word of mouth of the audience, and now that the Internet has begun to spread, the audiences who watch movies and netizens are highly overlapped.

Tens of millions of publicity fees are not worth a single mouth of the audience.

Huayang's propaganda can't last for a few days, unless Douban, Tieba, Weibo, Baidu, Tianya, and Maopu are all owned by them, and they can achieve all-round control and evaluation without dead ends.

"That's good, but shouldn't the online promotion fee be increased?" Li Qian said what he said, and Du Yang didn't say anything anymore.
