You don't understand the happiness of the director

(The previous chapter has been released, you can read it, don’t miss it~)

Liu Yifei looked at her high heels and walked confidently to Zhang Zilin, "Hello."

Last time we were recording a song, we met briefly and didn’t even get to know him.

"Oh, Hello."

It was just a brief greeting, no further in-depth chat, and no chance. The press conference started immediately.

However, a photo of the two of them was posted online by the media at the scene the next day, and entered major forums and was criticized by netizens.

Among them, the most vocal one is "Sister Shi is so powerful that she can even be compared to the immortals!"

"Zhang Zilin is indeed a killer in taking photos. Liu Yifei was so tall that she was stunned!"

"I love immortals, but at this moment, Sister Shi is the most beautiful!"

"Of course, this is a beautiful woman who represents the image of the country. Liu Yifei, if she wants to represent it, she also represents the United States~"

Because of this incident, Yang Mi specially called to comfort her, "Hahaha, you must have been overwhelmed by the beauty. If I were you, I would stay away from her when I saw her, hahaha..."

"Don't look at you smiling happily now, be careful about making lists in the future!" Liu Yifei snorted, "We will sing this song together at the Ancestral Temple at the end of the month, and you will also meet her then."

"I'll see you when I see you. Anyway, I won't get close to her."

Liu Yifei sighed, "I'm just curious about her."

After all, she was the woman who took away the royal power for the first time.

Yang Mi, "I'm not curious. She is already in the past for Brother Quan. The one who laughs at the end is the real winner!"

And I just want to have the last laugh!

Liu Yifei, "Oh, let me tell you one more thing. Brother Cheng Long has taken a liking to her and wants to invite her to star in "Twelve Zodiac Signs". You will still be together for a long time in the future~"

"What!" Yang Mi, who was applying a facial mask, jumped up. "Old Long, he must be sick. He is a head taller than him. Isn't he embarrassed?"

Thinking that she might be in the same frame as Zhang Zilin in the movie, Yang Mi couldn't calm down at all.

Liu Yifei, "I heard that there is an important role that requires such long legs."

Next, it was Liu Yifei's turn to comfort Yang Mi, "Oh, it doesn't matter. She is taller than you and you are older than her. Men must like you more, hahahaha!"

Sure enough, best friends want to hurt each other.

After attending this press conference, Liu Yifei attended the world premiere of "The King of Kung Fu" held in Beijing with Cheng Long, Li Lianjie, Li Bingbing and others.

Stars gathered at the scene, and the popularity of Cheng and Li, as well as Huayi's connections, were fully reflected at this moment.

Even Wang Qiankun was present, which made Liu Yifei very nervous for a moment. She called her Uncle Wang, and all she could think about was dad and the child's grandpa.

Lao Wang can come mainly because Qiankun and Huayi collaborated on a new drama "My Captain, My Regiment". Huayi created it with the original crew of "Soldier Assault". Lao Wang took a fancy to the strength of this team. , it happened that Huayi was also short of money, so they invested together.

He also has another purpose, which is to see the quality of this movie. Qiankun will also release a movie at the end of the month, "Double Food Chronicles", and he doesn't know how much impact it will have.

Now is not the peak season for movies. The reason why "Kung Fu King" is placed in this schedule is mainly to accommodate the North American schedule. The size of this movie is not very competitive in the North American summer schedule, so it is set in April. , a little later in China, because I wanted to get more benefits from the May Day Golden Week.

After the world premiere in Beijing, the group flew to the United States to start promotion in North America. Liu Yifei also appeared on several interview variety shows under the arrangement of William Morris.

Within Huayi Company, the two kings worshiped all the gods and Buddhas they could worship, hoping that this cross-border investment would have a good result.

Cheng Long and Li Lianjie invested 70 million (total), so North America must have over 100 million!

Domestic requirements are not high, just 300 million will be enough.

Because the domestic release is a little later and it won't be released for another week after the world premiere, the first thing they see is the box office situation in North America.

"How much is the first day!" Wang Zhonglei looked at Chen Guofu eagerly.

Chen Guofu looked embarrassed, "7 million dollars."

"Ah, why is it so small? Is Cheng Long and Li Lianjie's appeal so weak?" Wang Zhonglei was a little in disbelief.

Wang Zhongjun waved his hand, "It's not fake. It's normal for the box office to be lower. Maybe it will have great stamina. This data should be the champion of the day in April."

Chen Guofu was even more embarrassed, "Second place."

"What!" Even Wang Zhongjun stood up now, "Isn't there nothing big in the new movie this week?"

Chen Guofu put the printed data in front of the two bosses, "The first place is not a new film, but an old film that has been released for a month."

"What, old movie, impossible, how is this possible!"

The two took it and took a look. They didn't know how to translate the title in front of it. The box office on Friday was 7.5 million, which was a little higher than The King of Kung Fu. The company name hanging behind it looked too familiar. It was - -The dragon raises its head!

Chen Guofu told them, "This movie is called "Spiritual: Ghost Records". It has been shown on a small scale before. Later, the effect was good and the scale continued to expand. This Friday, it got more than 1,000 theaters for the first time, and the box office suddenly became huge. burst."

The cumulative box office of "Ghost Story" has quietly reached a huge 50 million yuan. The previous promotional funds have long recovered the cost, and the good days are yet to come.

Wang Zhonglei slapped the table, "The dragon raises his head again, why is he everywhere? Is he deliberately here to snipe us? It's so shameless!"

Chen Guofu has nothing to say. Mr. Wang, you really think too much. As for "The Ghost Story", who would have thought that it would have such power after being released for a month? No one could have thought of it. I'm afraid everyone who looks up to the dragon will be surprised. Unexpected.

Wang Zhongjun was still calm and asked, "Did Wang Quan write the script for this film?"

Chen Guofu shook his head, "They received this from the film festival. It is said that Wang Quan participated in the re-editing, and the cost of this film is said to be less than 20,000."

"What!" The two brothers shouted at the same time, sucking in the cold air for free. This, this, this, how is this possible!

When the production cost of a movie is not low enough, the cost can be publicized higher. When the production cost is low enough, it becomes a selling point and can be vigorously promoted. This is the case with "Paranormal Activity: The Ghost Story", which is cheap. It has become one of its major selling points.

For such a low production cost to scare people like this, there must be something unique about it. This is how many viewers are attracted to the cinema.

On the second day, "The Kung Fu King" was pretty good, with a box office higher than Friday, reaching $7.3 million, but "Paranormal Activity" was even higher, rising to $8.6 million!

The Ghost Story is guaranteed to win the first weekend, and it happened in its fifth week of release!

Such a strong trend also means that this film may become the film with the most exaggerated cost-to-box office ratio in film history, even more exaggerated than the "Blair Witch" that year.

Dorothy couldn't help but call Wang Quan. This was already the fifth phone call she had made during this period because of "The Ghost Story".

"Wang, we can continue to expand the library next week. This movie makes me full of expectations. I even think it can break 100 million!"

Wang Quan, "Well, there is indeed some hope. The main reason is that the publicity is good. Boss Tao remembers that "Twilight 2" was also more attentive."

"Of course, Ghost Chronicles is just a small effort. The real big money will come from the Twilight series!"

Since the release of "Twilight", the operation of various derivative copyrights for this movie has also begun. Although it is not comparable to the same type of "Harry Potter", the value created is also very considerable. It is estimated that box office revenue was only a quarter of the total profit.

Of course, this is a long process, and what you earn is not quick money, but a long-tail effect.

In addition, Wang Quan told Dorothy that he was going to Rio de Janeiro soon.

That will be the last stop of overseas filming.

After hanging up the phone, Wang Quan hugged the little witch Emma Watson in his arms, "Rio, you don't have to follow me, my girlfriend is over there."

Emma Watson, who was still enjoying the afterglow, was stunned for a moment, "Is it true that you said you have a girlfriend?"

King Power, “Do I look like the kind of person who lies?”

"But you just said you had a girlfriend and you were kissing me at the same time!"

"You took the initiative, I just didn't refuse, and you didn't stop even after I said that. I thought you didn't care~" Wang Quan was confident, and he was not lying.

Emma Watson looked at Wang Quan angrily, and finally shouted, "Scumbag!"

Wang Quan, "So you want to go back to your room now?"

Emma rolled up the quilt, "I'm tired and don't want to move."

Wang Quan fell asleep next to her, and soon, the second round began, and it was Emma who took the initiative~

At this time, they were in the Netherlands, filming a dream scene in Van Gogh's hometown.

In fact, when he was in Paris, Wang Quan felt that this little witch wanted to sleep with him. The appearance of their "Harry Potter" crew was really pitiful. She could be attracted to Master Malfoy. It can be seen that she had never seen him before. What a quality man.

During the filming process, Emma was attracted by Wang Quan's professionalism, dedication, and good looks and figure.

Finally, after filming in the Netherlands, they were about to separate temporarily. Wang Quan and Xiao Li Zi had to go to Rio. Emma took the initiative to come to Wang Quan's room.

She may be slightly lacking in the skills to seduce men, but she can't hit the ball straight. She hits the ball straight and up, and Wang Quan is frank and calm, so the scene just happened.

After World War II, Emma softened her attitude and asked Wang Quan, "I don't care who that woman is, if you break up with her, we can make it official tomorrow."

Being Emma Watson’s first official boyfriend is a blessing that many people dream of.

Wang Quan smiled, and the little girl thought that things were really simple, "I appreciate the kindness, but I love her more."

Emma sighed, "She's so good, who is she?"

"Gal Gadot."

"It's really her. It turns out you like long legs." She was very frustrated. It was impossible for her to grow taller at her age.

Wang Quan did not admit or deny it, so let her think so. When you like someone, what you like is definitely not the part, but the whole person. She likes Gadot, but she happens to have a pair of long legs.

And tomorrow he will be able to see long legs.

As soon as the crew landed in Rio, Wang Quan received a call from Liu Yifei, "Our "Kung Fu King" crew is so miserable, we can't even beat a horror movie with a production cost of 15,000 yuan~"

Wang Quan smiled and was able to laugh at himself, which showed that he had a stable mentality, "The box office of "Kung Fu King" will definitely not meet the original expectations, but you don't have to be disappointed. Your debut in Hollywood is very good. I have seen a lot of good reviews. , American audiences still have a good impression of Chinese beating women, and you are prettier than Lucy Liu."

"Sister Bingbing and I watched "The Ghost Story" yesterday. It was really scary. We were so scared that we couldn't sleep at night and kept the lights on. I heard that you edited it?"

"Well, I re-edited it to make the audience more immersive. If you didn't fall asleep, why don't you catch up on your sleep?" Wang Quan asked with concern.

Liu Yifei said, "No, we are going back to China. We will go to Tibei to promote "The King of Kung Fu", and then I will continue to work on "Heard and Heard"."

"I hope it can have a good box office in China." Wang Quan said a blessing that was impossible to achieve.

If this movie is only moderately rated in the United States, then it can only be considered average in China.

Domestic audiences were very unimpressed with the plot, which was neither Chinese nor foreign. Even with two extremely popular action superstars and a super popular actress, it still couldn't stop the negative reviews from audiences and film critics.

Of course, bad reviews are bad reviews. When audiences go to the cinema during this period, "The King of Kung Fu" is still the first choice, and it has attracted a large number of passionate fans who don't care about word of mouth.

On the 24th, "The King of Kung Fu" was officially released in mainland China, with a box office of 90 million in its first week!

If the word-of-mouth was good, there was hope for a first-week score of 300 million, but unfortunately the word-of-mouth was too poor, and the box office fell seriously in the second week. Moreover, the audience had other choices at this time, and "Double Food Chronicles" was released.

The director of the film "A Story of Two Foods" is a newcomer and the actors are not well-known. The biggest publicity point is the screenwriter Wang Quan. A local-based "Lost Orphan" has proven that he can tell the story of the Chinese people well.

But this is enough. This movie is aimed at the May Day Golden Week. The first day is not a holiday yet, and there are not many movies scheduled. It only has a box office of 2.2 million. When the holiday comes, relying on the appeal of the king, the movie will be good. The movie's reputation surged to 3.5 million at the box office in a single day, and surpassed it again the next day, reaching 4.1 million!

The original version of "A Story of Two Foods" did not have strong commercial attributes, but Wang Quan and Chen Zhengdao's copyright is a suspense thriller with full attributes, and it focuses on the original wife using her wisdom to defeat the scumbag husband and mistress.

So by May, "A Tale of Two Foods" had become the third highest-grossing movie in the mainland, with a cumulative box office of more than 10 million.

The second highest-grossing movie is "The Kung Fu King," and a blockbuster is a blockbuster.

The first place is the Marvel superhero movie "Iron Man" which has just been released simultaneously in North America.

Wang Quan, who was in Rio, looked at the reports about this movie in the United States and thought to himself, he is finally here...
