On the second day, "Zhu Xian" also completed its surpassing of "Leng Feng".
The former box office king suddenly became the third in line.
When everyone takes a look, it turns out that "Leng Feng" is not so unattainable.
Therefore, forums such as Box Office Bar are discussing the position of "Leng Feng" on the mainland box office charts after this year.
"You can't even make it into the top ten, right?"
Yang Mi also saw the relevant discussion on the Internet, and she came to her husband angrily: "May I ask how Director Quan feels now?"
Wang Quan said confidently: "I think the top five may be difficult, but the top ten should not be difficult."
Yang Mi stroked Wang Quan's chest and comforted her: "Don't be discouraged, honey. At least the number one Chinese-language film at the global box office is "Cold Front."
This is natural, with a global revenue of 807 million. Before "Wolf Warrior 2" came out, no one could shake this achievement and status.
Recently, Xianmi and I have finished the promotion work of "Zhu Xian" in stages. During this period, they even went to Hong Kong, Taiwan, Japan, South Korea and parts of Southeast Asia to promote. "Zhu Xian" was first released in the mainland, and then gradually spread all over Asia.
Although the current domestic box office is not as good as "Mermaid", the overseas box office has already won a lot. The overseas box office is as high as 20 million U.S. dollars, and the total overseas box office is expected to reach 100 million U.S. dollars.
Among them, the box office of Hong Kong has reached 30 million Hong Kong dollars. The small victory of "Mermaid" can be regarded as avenging the shame of Xu Ke's previous two Shushan movies.
Wang Quan also heard from Yoona, Yui and others about the grand opening of "Zhu Xian" in their local area. There were no Hollywood blockbusters during this period, and the production scale and star cast of "Zhu Xian" were more attractive than local films.
The two of them have worked very hard these two weeks, and now they have some free time. Mimi returned to Beijing, while Qianqian went to her grandma's house in Jiangcheng.
No matter how tired Yang Mi is, she is willing to do it because she is also one of the producers of the "Zhu Xian" series, and she and Qian Qian are both on the box office + share model. This can be regarded as her fame and fortune.
Then Wang Quan asked: "Fan Bingbing hasn't contacted you recently, right?"
"Why is she contacting me?" Suddenly, Yang Mi became alert, "Why, she is interested in my current position and wants to challenge me?"
"No, no, she just said she has something to do with work and wants to talk to you, so let her talk to you herself."
Yang Mi gave Wang Quan a strange look, "Humph, it's best. I'm tired and want a massage."
She handed her legs to Wang Quan, who immediately took advantage of them skillfully. In the end, not just the legs, Wang Quan relaxed her whole body so that she could get rid of her fatigue and fall asleep quickly.
Wang Quan took a look at the cat's eye in the evening. The new movie "Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon 2: The Sword of the Dark" was released today.
Although the film is nominally a sequel to Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon, except for Yang Ziqiong, all the front and backstage teams have undergone a major overhaul, and it is jointly invested by Harvey's Winston Pictures and China Film.
Moreover, the film is a Chinese story shot in English, and the actors all speak in English, which is different from "Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon."
Although Zhen Zidan just participated in the Spring Festival Gala not long ago, and there is also a Hollywood blockbuster "Star Wars Story" with good box office, this did not help the movie's box office. It was only 30 million on the first day, and only 26 million on the second day on Saturday, which was not as good as " "Zhu Xian" and "Mermaid".
The key word of mouth is very poor, Douban only has a score of 5 points, and there is still room for decline.
The film "The Original Spacetime" is directly available on Netflix in North America. In this life, Winston and Long Toutou have a very bad relationship, so naturally it is impossible to be released on Netflix, unless Harvey gives it up for free.
At this time, there were no other strong streaming media platforms, so after the film was released, Harvey, who was sure that the quality did not meet the requirements of theaters, decided to release the film directly on disc.
This can at least save on publicity and distribution costs. However, the disc market is also sluggish these days. Everyone has long been accustomed to watching movies online by Netflix. It is long past the time for Jet Li to dominate the list.
Although the situation of "Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon 2" is not optimistic, Zhen Zidan doesn't care. Anyway, he still has "Ip Man 3", and this series is his foundation.
And not long ago, he has been invited by the Oscars and will be a guest presenter at the awards ceremony.
A "Star Wars Story" with a global box office of 1.2 billion US dollars has completely opened up his international reputation and his future is unlimited.

"It seems that Master Ba is more suitable to be a martial artist~"
Yang Mi returned to the company soon. She had already learned about the box office and reputation of "Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon 2", and it can be said that it was a mess.
After all, Yuan Heping is not Li Jin. Not only did he not win the favor of the domestic audience, but this time even foreigners did not understand. Harvey was ready to release the disc directly, which shows the difference in standards.
This made Yang Mi, who was preparing to collaborate with Jiahe on "Qi Men Dun Jia", even more afraid to trust him with such a big project.
Opposite her sat Mr. Xu, the producer of "Qi Men Dun Jia". The two were discussing the director of this new project. Later, Mr. Xu suggested, "How about letting Chen Desen come."
Chen Desen, the director of "October Siege", has been quiet for a while after the box office failure of "One Man's Martial Arts". He is currently unemployed at home, and Xu Ke proposed to use him.
Mr. Xu’s reason is: “Although Qi Men Dun Jia’s main market is the mainland, it is a version based on Jiahe after all. People from Hong Kong are better at making this type of movie, and Chen Desen has successful co-production experience.”
Thinking of Chen Desen's past achievements, and comparing Yuan Baye's achievements in the past few years, Director Chen is indeed a more suitable candidate.
Of course, Yang Mi would rather use the young directors who have achieved a box office of 1 billion yuan in Dragon Head Raising, but those people have their own projects. For example, Yang Qing is preparing for Young Ghost Blows Out the Light, and Chen Zhengdao has finished filming The Tuner, but he also has to supervise the production of The Memory Master, which is in the same series as The Hypnotist.
So she nodded: "You can contact Director Chen, and we will try to complete the filming within this year, so as not to delay The Legend of Chusen 2 and 3."
Then Xu Laoguai strode away. Before, Ah Xing wanted to find him to film his sequel to Journey to the West, The Demons Strike Back, but who would still be interested in that kind of thing now? I want to make history!
Now there are voices of disgust on the Internet about the idea of giving Stephen Chow a ticket, and the gap between the two movies is gradually narrowing. This time, I have the chance to win!
After that, Yang Mi went to the practice room to take a look. Zhou Ye and Tian Xiwei were preparing for the final audition, and Yang Chaoyue was acting with them.
Seeing the boss coming, Tian Xiwei and Yang Chaoyue stood up to greet him with full courtesy.
Zhou Ye felt a little guilty, but when he thought about the fact that Yang Mi was not his boss, he immediately felt that it was nothing. Humph, Sister Bingbing was backing him up, and he puffed out his chest and called out "Hello, Sister Mi".
From now on, you are the elder sister and I am the younger sister, that's it.
After chatting for a while, Yang Mi received a call from Fan Bingbing, and she deliberately said in front of Zhou Ye: "Oh, Bingbing."
The other party opened his mouth and said: "Sister Mi, are you free? I'd like to invite you for tea."
Zhou Ye recognized the voice of his boss and immediately shrank his neck. Is the boss so humble in front of Yang Mi?

On the 22nd, the Beijing Film Academy's acting class art exam ushered in the final exam.
At this time, there were only a few dozen candidates left. Zhou Ye and Tian Xiwei came to the examination room and happened to see Wang Quan getting out of the car, followed by his personal assistant Guo Xuefu.
Wang Quan nodded to them, and then accompanied by the school leaders, he went to the examination room for the third test of the directing department.
Compared with the well-known acting department, the school leaders are actually more concerned about the quality of the new students in the directing department. After all, when it comes to actors, the Central Academy of Drama and the Shanghai Theatre Academy have their own strengths, but when it comes to film directors, none of them can compete.
Even Beijing Film Academy can confidently say that only the two universities in Los Angeles can be rivaled by Beijing Film Academy.
There are second-generation stars in the entertainment industry, and naturally there are second-generation directors.
For example, Director Kai Ge, Director Guan Hu, Director Teng Huatao, and now Zhang Mo, Huang Jianxin's son Huang Lei ("Angry Little Kid").
Among today's candidates, there is a son of a famous director, Jiumei Chenglie, the son of Xizang director Wangma Caidan.
This exam first tests the analysis of art or photography works, the analysis of music works, and finally the story conception, and conceives a story on the spot according to the requirements of the judges.
Jiumei Chenglie performed very well in these aspects, and Wang Quan gave the highest score among several candidates.
In addition to the candidates from Xizang and Xijiang, there are still a large number of foreign candidates this year. After all, if the two schools in Los Angeles cannot be admitted, for young people who are interested in the film industry, Beijing Film Academy is the best choice.
Moreover, our universities have a long precedent of preferential treatment for foreign college students.
After completing the work of the examiner, Wang Quan and several other examiners and school leaders had a meal together.
Afterwards, he sent a message to Sister Feihong, asking about Zhou Ye and Tian Xiwei's performance.
~
"The performance can be said to be very good!" Tian Xiwei boasted in the Shancheng Five Beauties group.
Zhou Ye: "Yes, yes, Tian Tian performed very well, and Teacher Yu Feihong even praised her."
Zhang Yishang: "After all, we made a mistake in the Central Academy of Drama. We didn't even take the exam!"
Zhou Yiran: "Haha, then I congratulate the two junior sisters in advance."
Tian Xiwei: "Sister Ran, I'm going back to my hometown to prepare for the cultural exam soon. I'll find you for dinner then."
Zhou Yiran: "I'm afraid it won't work. I'm traveling outside and will go back to Beijing directly then."
Tian Xiwei: "Ah, where are you going?"
Zhou Yiran: "Xijiang, Altay, with a few classmates."
Liu Meitong: "I'm so envious. I've been staying at home reading novels recently."
Zhang Yishang: "Haha, me too. What are you reading?"
Liu Meitong: "Snow Swordsman" is great."
Zhang Yishang: "What rubbish, I'm reading Joy of Life, a masterpiece."
Liu Meitong: "It sounds so tacky. The name doesn't interest me. I tell you, Snow Swordsman is a masterpiece. It's now the number one monthly ticket on Qidian!"
As they were chatting, Yang Chaoyue came in. Zhou Ye and Tian Xiwei put away their phones. This was their farewell dinner, and the location was Donglaishun.
Next, Zhou Ye was going to attend the Oscars with Wang Quan, and then go home to prepare for the college entrance examination. Tian Xiwei was also going home to reunite with her family. We would have to wait until after the college entrance examination to see each other again.
As soon as Yang Chaoyue came in, she said, "I just saw a beautiful woman!"
Tian Xiwei lifted her long hair: "Huh, can she be prettier than me?"
"Look, she hasn't left yet. You can go over and see her." Yang Chaoyue pointed to the other side of the hotel lobby.
Tian Xiwei: "I won't watch it, I'm a straight girl."
Then Zhou Ye stood up, and she came back after a while: "It's okay, a beautiful girl, not as good as our boss."
Yang Chaoyue: "That's right, who can compare with your boss."
The girl who was considered not as good as Fan Bingbing was Zhang Ruonan, and her mother was next to her.
After receiving the invitation to be a fashion model on Douyin, she was a little hesitant and discussed it with her parents, and her parents supported her very much.
"You are studying design. If you deal more with these companies, you might be able to find a job after graduation."
Then she came to Beijing, accompanied by her mother, and took photos of her first set of Taobao clothes, earning 5,000 yuan.
This made the mother extremely happy, and she became even more supportive of her daughter's modeling career. "There are more Taobao stores in Hangzhou. In the future, I can take jobs directly there instead of coming all the way to Beijing."
Zhang Ruonan nodded, and then proposed to have a meal of Donglaishun hot pot, a specialty of Beijing, before leaving Beijing.
After returning to his hometown, Zhang Ruonan started surfing the Internet and saw a message on Weibo.
A message issued by Wang Quan personally.
# The heroine of Xiaoyaoyou has been cast! #
"This is an open casting call for the whole society. Tang Xiaojun is the core heroine of the "Xiaoyaoyou" trilogy. We will not impose restrictions on age, body shape, and education. Everyone only needs to post a self-titled video on Douyin. Introduce the life video, and add the topic of # Xiaoyaoyou Tang Xiaojun # , and @"Xiaoyaoyou" official blue V account, the registration is considered successful. If it is suitable, we will send you an invitation. Even if it’s not suitable for the heroine, it might be suitable for other roles.”
Wang Quan finally couldn't help but lend a helping hand to Douyin, mainly because this opportunity was too rare.
The heroine of "Xiaoyaoyou" can attract at least hundreds of thousands of beautiful young girls across the country. As long as 10,000 of these people register on Douyin and post beautiful videos, they can attract at least 1 million old perverts.
This is the energy of beauty.
After understanding it, Zhang Ruonan's heart beat faster. Whether it was a Taobao model or the heroine of the King Power movie, normal people knew how to choose.
She looked at the comments below. There were hundreds of thousands of them.
But most people are asking “What is TikTok video.”
Then someone came out to answer the question: This is a software similar to Kuaishou.
Some people are worried, "Has it been pre-decided a long time ago? We beauties with no backgrounds are just here to accompany us."
Immediately, someone jumped out and replied: "It's just a video, it doesn't cost anything, what's wrong with running with me?"
"That's right, and even if there is no heroine, wouldn't the supporting actress still feel wronged by you?"
"Even if you don't catch anything, it's a blessing to be seen by Director Quan!"
It is true that the previous offline auditions were basically predetermined, leaving many people who love to dream but have no background to work hard and get nothing in the end. However, this time it is an online selection, and it is almost zero cost to participate. It is just a software and some traffic. .
For Zhang Ruonan, the cost is even lower because she already has Douyin, and there are several videos shot in Beijing but not released.
She made a selection, selected the video she was most satisfied with, posted it on Douyin, brought up the topic, @the official account, and then quietly waited to be discovered and claimed by the official account.
At the same time, in Yang Chaoyue's dormitory, the three sisters who were about to separate were also helping each other record videos in preparation for participating in the selection.
Who would have thought that the heroine would be chosen like this. Among them, only Yang Chaoyue had TikTok, and she was asked to teach the other two how to play.
However, the video was already taken, and they were about to tell their agents, but the agents told them.
"The video company will take it for you. Come to the company tomorrow."
This Weibo post by Wang Quan shocked almost all the agencies, art students, and girls who have nothing to do with the entertainment industry but consider themselves beautiful.
The gentle download curve of Douyin suddenly had a small twist, and old users of Douyin all felt that overnight, there were many more ladies in Douyin, and the quality was much higher.
Shiliting is a otaku who weighs over 200 pounds and has no girlfriend. His greatest pleasure is watching beauties in live broadcasts and short videos. Short videos are mostly fast, and the beauties there are more generous.
But just tonight, he suddenly found that Douyin had changed. He swiped it and oh, a beautiful woman! Brush it, it’s so beautiful! Brush it, it’s stunning!
After all, they are all beauties. After one night of browsing, Shiliting couldn't stop at all. He followed at least dozens of girls and contributed huge traffic and interaction volume to Douyin.
Now Kuaishou is panicking. This is a bit of a foul. Although as a colleague, I know that ByteDance has an extraordinary relationship with Wang Quan, you directly use the heroine of the new film in which you have invested the most to attract traffic to Douyin. This is somewhat ungrateful. Virtue.
While Kuaishou was thinking about how to counter Douyin, which became popular because of Wang Quan, Wang Quan, the instigator, was watching videos at home in a paralyzed posture.
At this time, Douyin did not yet have Doujia. If the video wanted to be seen, it had to rely on its own quality. Douyin had its own algorithm to calculate the supply problem.
After browsing for half an hour, Wang Quan saw at least three future female stars and two current starlets.
There are also a large number of people who are carefully preparing short videos to impress Wang Quan.
Suddenly, a girl named "Zhang Ruonan" jumped into Wang Quan's sight.
With a pure face, a sweet smile, and a comfortable temperament, no wonder many people say: If I were asked to marry Zhang Ruonan, I would drive a luxury car and live in a mansion.
After checking her account, she already has some fans and videos. It seems she has started playing Douyin a long time ago.
Wang Quan thought for a while and sent her video to the private message of the official account of "Xiaoyaoyou".
Because there are too many people sending private messages to "Xiaoyaoyou", it has been closed. Only people who are related to each other can send private messages. Wang Quan is naturally followed, but he has never sent a video.
The staff in charge of the official account immediately followed Zhang Ruonan after seeing it and left a message "Already followed" in her comment area.
"What are you looking at?" Yang Mi asked, wiping her hair.
The two had just gone through a big battle.
Wang Quan: "Look at the beauty."
"Let me take a look~" Yang Mi came over.
Wang Quan scrolled through Douyin, and the next thing he saw was the Internet celebrity "Sister Feng!" At this time, she had not yet gone to the United States and had opened a Douyin account.
Seeing Sister Feng's majestic appearance, Yang Mi's expression became unnatural: "Do you have such a strong taste now?"
Wang Quan sighed: "This is unreliable big data!"
He swiped again and saw a girl introducing herself, "Bai Mengyan, a peerless beauty, Bai Mengyan with milky white skin, Bai Mengyan, a fairy descending to earth, Bai Mengyan, a fair-skinned beauty..."
Well, this time it is more reliable, but Yang Mi is no longer paying attention. She is taking care of her skin care. Liu Yifei will be back tomorrow, and she must be in the best condition to welcome Sissi.
She didn't care that much about the royal power.
~
The next morning, Zhang Ruonan woke up and was dumbfounded when he saw his video with more than 100,000 likes.
She opened the comment area tremblingly, and saw that the bottle with the most likes had more comments than her own video, with more than 200,000 likes!
This comment only has three words: "Followed", but its name is "The Movie "Escape"", with a V!
"Ah!" Zhang Ruonan cried out excitedly, and the sound alerted her second sister who lived in the same room with her.
"Sister, what are you doing!"
Zhang Ruonan kissed her sister on the cheek and said, "It's okay, just go back to sleep!"
Zhang Ruonan continued to read, and in the comments under "Followed", they all said that this was the first comment posted by "Xiaoyaoyou", which meant that he was the first to be officially reviewed!
Zhang Ruonan quickly followed the official account of the movie and found that the other party had already followed her. However, when she sent a private message to the other party asking whether she needed to go to Beijing and submit other information, the other party did not respond to her after waiting for a long time.
This made Zhang Ruonan feel a little entangled and anxious.
~
Also troubled is Chen Duling, who lives in Xiamen's hometown.
She is already a senior in college, and her college career will end in a few months after school starts. A few years ago, she entered an internship in a secret department of the country.
The experience left her feeling confused about the future.
There, what she has learned can indeed be put to use, and maybe one day the aircraft she participates in can travel into space.
But after all, she has one foot in the entertainment industry and has seen its prosperity.
Even though she is a newcomer to acting, her salary for filming "The Left Ear" directed by Zhang Mo was already as high as 500,000 yuan. Counting the several activities she accepted after the movie was released, her income easily exceeded one million yuan in one year.
The annual salary of 500,000 yuan is something that only middle- and senior-level leaders can achieve in the unit where she interns. Most fresh graduates like her from Beihang University and China Southern Airlines earn only a few thousand yuan a month, and several of her classmates have thinning hair and sallow skin. .
Yes, the remuneration is good, and even if you are seriously ill, you can be reimbursed a lot, but if you are in a place like Jinling, it will take a long time and support from your parents to buy a house.
She admitted that she was vain. Seeing that Han Dongjun, Yang Yang, and Bai Yu, who had filmed with her, were all famous and easily earning tens of millions per year. After studying hard for 12 years, she was really unwilling to work quietly in the secret department. Technology is developed, and then withers and fades without even realizing it.
But when I switched to the entertainment industry, I felt sorry for the teachings of so many teachers at China Southern University during my four years of college. What I learned in the past four years became knowledge that I could no longer use.
Just when he was about to go back to school, Chen Duling came across Wang Quan's Weibo, "Xiaoyaoyou" casting?
After downloading Douyin and looking at those young and beautiful girls showing off their beauty, Chen Duling felt that she was no worse than them, but it was a bit embarrassing to shoot this video.
After much hesitation, Chen Duling took a video on her phone.
She thought that if she could be selected by Director Quan, she would completely switch to the film and television industry. If not, then she would just find a class. She thought she could go to the Science and Technology Museum to give it a try.

ByteDance Corporation.
Zhang Yiyi and other founding teams of the company are celebrating with the Douyin team that the software’s daily active users have exceeded 10 million!
Not long ago, they were just short video newcomers with more than 10 million users, but as the topic of # Xiaoyaoyou Tang Xiaojun # became popular, Douyin finally became popular because of the influx of a large number of young and beautiful girl users. Douyin suddenly became the most eye-catching software on the Internet.
After the beauties posted @Xiaoyaoyou’s self-introduction video, they then browsed Douyin and found that this software is quite fun.
So they also learned to play, and made videos that were more in line with Douyin's interests. They also began to have a fan base and became the first batch of good-looking Internet celebrities on Douyin.
However, Zhang Yiming is very wary of this and must not let beautiful women become the only label on Douyin. What he wants to do is to diversify, so he also provides traffic tilt to technical stream users such as black face V to compete with good-looking anchors .
Wang Quan had a meeting with the promotion team of "Xiaoyaoyou" today. Casting is also part of the promotion. Through this online audition, the reputation of "Xiaoyaoyou" can be instantly spread and a seed can be planted in the hearts of netizens.
After the popularity subsides a bit, some will be selected from the massive number of applicants for the next wave of marketing, which will also be conducted online, creating a show that is different from traditional casting.
Liu Yifei came back from Jiangcheng today. Wang Quan and Mimi received her well. The three of them were exhausted in the end.
Liu Yifei later mentioned the casting of Xiaoyaoyou, saying that her cousin also wanted to participate in the audition.
"I told her not to participate, there is no play, because the heroine cannot be prettier than me." Liu Yifei said.
She was actually worried that Wang Quan and his heroine would inevitably fall in love with each other over time. She could turn a blind eye to others, but not her cousin.
This made Yang Mi curious: "Our sister is so beautiful, do you have a photo? Let me take a look."
Liu Yifei glanced at Wang Quan: "To prevent someone, I never save her photos."
Wang Quan looked innocent: "That's too much, I'm not that kind of person."
Yang Mi and Liu Yifei laughed at the same time.
Wang Quan said again: "I don't believe that my cousin won't come when we get married."
Speaking of marriage, we must get divorced first. Liu Yifei glanced at Yang Mi.
Yang Mi said, "Why are you looking at me? I won't stop you from getting married."
Liu Yifei: "It's better~"
Yang Mi hesitated and said, "I'm just worried that netizens will be nosy. They will either blacken you or blacken me. It will be bad if it affects the box office of the movie."
Next, "Zhu Xian 2 and 3" and the "Xiao Yao You" series will be released in about three or four years. It is very likely that Wang Quan and Yang Mi will work together on "Xiao Yao You" just after they divorce, and Wang Quan and Xixi will promote "Zhu Xian" together after they get married.
"As long as we are not embarrassed, the netizens will be embarrassed!" Wang Quan said firmly. At this time, we have to be thick-skinned. I think even the dumbest netizens should know what's going on at that time. Let them envy, be jealous and hate.
The next day was a very important day in the history of Chinese-language films.
Because "The Mermaid" and "Zhu Xian 1: The Legend of Chusen" reached 3 billion box office on the same day, this is also the first time in the history of mainland films that a movie of 3 billion has appeared, which is known as "the two kings ascending to the top".
In this regard, netizens have expressed their opinions. At the beginning of the release, both movies were almost all praised, especially "Zhu Xian", which was considered to be the new peak of Chinese blockbusters. However, as the box office of the two movies continued to rise, breaking new records again and again, the public's evaluation of them has also quietly changed.
I want a farmhouse: In fact, Zhu Xian is not that good. Bi Yao has too few scenes, but the mermaid is too weak, which makes Zhu Xian catch up.
Hope there are many good books: The mermaid is indeed ugly. I will wait and see Stephen Chow's next movie. Deng Chao should not play comedy. Reba is not pretending to be stupid, that is really stupid. The best performance is actually by Director Quan.
Sorry, I am an observer: These two movies are really not as good as those in previous years, but think about "Three Strikes on the White Bone Demon" and "Ao Men Fengyun" are about to break 1 billion. Alas, it can be regarded as a dividend of the times.
Sit and watch the wind and cloud: Although both are average, but "Zhu Xian" is in front, I support it 100%, and now I just want to see Stephen Chow's response.
At 6 pm, the total box office of "Zhu Xian" had surpassed "The Mermaid" by 2 million.
The Mermaid's official Weibo account released a congratulatory poster from Zhou Xingchi to Xu Ke of "Zhu Xian", and congratulated "Zhu Xian" for surpassing "The Mermaid" to become the No. 1 Chinese film box office!
The poster shows a competition, with the mermaid Reba on one side and Zhang Xiaofan and Huang Xuan on the other, each standing as the characters of their respective movies.
When Reba, who had a sea urchin on her head, had no blood bar, Huang Xuan, who was holding a fire stick on the opposite side, still had half of his blood.
The copywriting accompanying this poster was: The opponent is a bit strong, wait for me to shake people, and fight again in the next round.
This sentence was also interpreted by netizens as "The Mermaid" is also going to shoot a second part, and it will also compete with "Zhu Xian".
In fact, Zhou Xingchi did have this idea, but it was a temporary idea. At the beginning, there was no plan to make a series of movies, including the "Journey to the West" series.
So after "Journey to the West: Conquering the Demons" became a big hit, "Journey to the West: The Demons Strike Back" was launched, and the cast was completely changed.
The same is true for The Mermaid. He has to negotiate with the actors whether they are willing to return, and then write the script based on the characters.
In this respect, it is not as good as The Legend of Chusen. Xu Laoguai told him that The Legend of Chusen 2 and 3 will be filmed at the same time.
But he believes that as long as he wants, the actors will not refuse him.
Although The Mermaid is the shortest holder of the film history record in the mainland film market, only eight days, it has also reached the top.
In fact, he also fantasized whether The Mermaid could overtake again.
However, by the evening, The Mermaid was already 5 million behind, and the subsequent scheduling and pre-sales were not as good as The Legend of Chusen. It seems that there is no hope.
Yuewen God Author Group!
Xuehong posted a picture, and then everyone in the group @and congratulated Xiao Ding.
This picture is the original author list of Maoyan.
Maoyan's movie box office list, in addition to actors, directors, and screenwriters, also has a category of "original author".
Previously, Wu Chengen was the first on this list, and then Tianxia Bachang came along, and his three movies made more than 4 billion.
Now, Xiao Ding has become the third person on the list after them, and he is the first person in a single movie.
Mao Ni: Mighty Xiao Da, if all three trilogies were released, I'm afraid Wu Chengen would not be his opponent.
Tang Jia San Shao: Of course, the three Zhu Xian movies made at least more than 10 billion, and Wu Chengen only has a few divisions.
Fenghuo: The subscription of "Zhu Xian" has been the first in the past few days. I heard that it even broke the daily sales record of Qidian. The traffic is too strong.
Tu Dou: It's really terrifying!
Magic Chicken: A movie can make hundreds of millions, and film and television is really profitable.
I Eat Tomatoes: I'm afraid that's not all. The overseas market for this film is also very impressive, and during the release period, the stock price of Power World soared by 5 billion, bringing terrifying profits to Boss Yang. It is estimated that China Literature will be listed this year.
Chen Dong: I really admire Director Quan’s insistence on not listing the company. How many daily limits have been missed?
Between 2: Why doesn't Xiao Da show up? Is it because he is rich and looks down on us poor brothers?
Xiao Ding: Sorry, I’m busy recently.
Yueguan: What are you busy with?
Xiao Ding: I plan to rebuild Zhu Xian, correct the loopholes and shortcomings during the serialization, and launch the "New Revised Edition of Zhu Xian".
Zhe Ergen: Wow, Xiao Da, you are the first person to edit online articles!
Nonsense: Hey, can "Zhu Xian" be an ordinary online novel? This is a novel that can be recorded in the history of film. It should be taken seriously, and the number of words is not many, and it is easy to edit. I support Xiao Da.
After that, everyone swarmed with support and praise, which made Xiao Ding even more confident in the new revised version.

In Paris, France, Liang Jiahui represented the crew of "Parasite" at the Cesar Awards ceremony, France's largest domestic film award, and received the Best Foreign Language Film Award from Jane March for "Parasite".
Jane March is the heroine of the movie "Lover". She was the first European woman to witness the curvy Asian buttocks, but now she feels that Mr. Li Ming is more curvy.
Li Ming:......
After receiving the award, Liang Jiahui immediately called Wang Quan to report the good news.
Wang Quan: "Thank you, Brother Jiahui, for your trip. We are already on the plane. You can come directly to Los Angeles, or you can catch up with old friends in France."
Liang Jiahui: "What old friends do I have? I'll book a flight after one day off."

Except for him, there were only women and children on King Quan's plane.
Liu Yifei is nominated for Best Actress and will go. The three beauties of "Parasite" Fan Bingbing, Wen Yongshan, and Zhou Ming will also go if they are not nominated. This is the red carpet of the Oscars.
His three assistants, Xiao Tian, Xiao Meng and Xiao Guo, were all free at the same time, so they went together.
There are also two dolls, Alice and Alex, and their dog gold coins.
Because the space on the plane was limited, other members took civil flights to Los Angeles. For example, Zhen Zidan happened to be on the same plane as Zhao Shuzhen, the old lady in "Don't Tell Her".
Zhen Zidan hurriedly attended a premiere event of "Ip Man 3" and was about to fly to the United States.
His appearance at the Oscars is the best promotion for "Ip Man 3".
After being dominated by Spring Festival movies for nearly 20 days, the market finally welcomed a beast. This time Ip Man is about to fight Tyson.
It is reported that before the release of "Ip Man 3", Shi Jianxiang, who was invested by Kuailu, made a guaranteed distribution. There are rumors that the guaranteed number is 1 billion.

On the plane.
Liu Yifei looked at the Yingying Yanyan in front of her and felt a headache for a moment. How will she live her life after getting married? It's all because of Mimi's connivance!
But with her around, others didn't dare to act too much, even Fan Bingbing was wearing clothes.
But it would take more than ten hours to fly, so the bored Pang Bing suggested playing cards.
Hearing that she meant just playing cards, Wang Quan shook his head and watched the movie with his eyes closed.
When he opened his eyes, he found it was a little dark.
Zhou Ming hurriedly took off his headphones and said, "Director, I saw you were asleep, so I turned off the lights in this area."
Wang Quan looked at Xiaoye: "What are you looking at?"
"No!" Xiaoye blocked the screen in a panic, and could only see half of the paused screen.
However, after all, Wang Quan is a senior filmmaker who has watched countless films. He can tell from just half of the screen that this is "The Jungle" starring Rocco Schiffetti and his wife. The film library on the plane does have this film. And the on-demand rate on this plane is quite high. After all, it is a classic in this genre.
A little girl has the courage to explore a new world, which is precious.
At this time, Xiao Ye had turned off the screen, and Wang Quan chuckled: "You can continue watching, I won't disturb you, I'll go watch them play cards."
After saying that, he stood up and left.
Now Zhou Ming hesitated. Do you really want to continue reading? If you continue reading, you will have to change your pants.
At this time, Liu Yifei and Xiaotian had worked together to coax the two babies to sleep, and the gold coins were guarding their siblings.
Fan Bingbing, Wen Yongshan and Meng Ziyi were fighting the Landlord, and Guo Xuefu was behind Meng Ziyi giving her advice. However, both of them were very smart, and they probably couldn't beat Pang Bing even if they worked together.
Liu Yifei and Xiaotian were playing Go, looking very cultured.
Wang Quan sat next to Liu Yifei, hugged her waist, and looked at her for a while: "Backgammon!"
Liu Yifei also blamed him: "You don't even have chess here."
"Okay, let me see how good you two are. I will definitely watch the chess without saying a word." Wang Quan said, glancing in Zhou Ming's direction. She had already put on her headphones again.
Wang Quan didn't really watch the two of them playing chess. He mainly played tricks on Sissi, and then the two of them became the focus of others.
The four people playing cards looked in their direction from time to time, and the cards in their hands were no longer good. Xiaotian, who was originally far more powerful than Liu Yifei, was distracted and was killed by the opponent several times.
In the end, she couldn't bear it anymore and suggested: "Sister Sissi, how about you two go to the bathroom and settle it?"
Just as Liu Yifei was about to retaliate, Zhou Ding suddenly stood up. Of course, before standing up, she turned off the screen in front of her and ran to the bathroom.
Seeing that she didn't come out for a long time, Wang Quan suggested: "Xiaotian, go over and take a look. Don't occupy the latrine and don't poop. Sister Qianxi still wants to go."
Liu Yifei: "I don't have one."
"I think it's okay if I want to go."
Xiaotian: "Boss, if you want to go, just go by yourself. I still want revenge."
Wang Quan: "I'll go, I'll go!"
Soon, Wang Quan and Zhou Ming disappeared from everyone's sight.
This disappeared for half an hour.
Zhou Ming was curious about who was more powerful, Wang Quan or Emperor Roko Xifo. Wang Quan opened her eyes for the dignity of Asians.
Then she exclaimed in amazement, feeling that she had learned a lot.
After coming out, Zhou Ming also played poker with everyone. At Wang Quan's suggestion, Sissi and Xiaotian stopped playing backgammon. Wang Quan organized a points-based poker competition.
The biggest winner with the most points at the end of this flight can walk the Oscar red carpet with him.
Sister Meng asked: "What if you have the highest points?"
Wang Quan: "Then I will choose one from among you, Li Ming or Liang Jiahui."
This made Fan Bingbing extremely anxious. The opportunity to walk on the red carpet with Wang Quan was probably hers. After all, she was the heroine of "Parasite". Now, it's a good thing, it turned out to be a prize.
So she tried her best to win it back. Playing cards depends on luck and experience. She is the oldest and naturally has the most experience.
But Xiaotian is not weak either. She has a high IQ and can barely count as the strongest among the few in card counting.
Zhou Ming was just in the bathroom with Wang Quan. When her emotions were high, she held back her energy and really hoped to walk on the red carpet with Wang Quan, just like walking on the red carpet of a wedding.

Los Angeles Airport.
Dorothy, Little K and Gadot came to the airport to pick them up.
The trailer of "Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice" has been very popular recently. As a prelude to DC's formation of the Justice League, Wonder Woman Gadot also officially appeared in the trailer.
Little K Quagado's heroine look is simply stunning, "It's just that the breasts are a little smaller, uh, I mean compared to the original comic book."
Gadot: "When you say something like this, can you please weigh your own weight?"
Dorothy immediately supported her wife: "The little one is cute too! And on average we are no worse than you."
Little K also puffed out his chest: "That's right."
They are already very familiar with each other and have a close relationship. They often joke with each other, but they don't take it to heart. Maybe they will work together at night.
However, after receiving Wang Quan and handing the children over to them, Wang Quan and Liu Yifei returned to their villa, while the others returned to the hotel to rest and prepare for tomorrow's Oscars.
The next day, after the break, the Oscar battle officially began.
Gadot did not attend the Oscars this year, so Wang Quan and Little K walked on the red carpet together.
On the plane, although Wang Quan wanted to help Sissi win, in the end he was favored by fate and got the highest points, so he chose Little K as his red carpet partner.
Xiao K was nominated for Best Actress for her ultra-low-cost A24 work "Room". In addition, this film was also nominated for Best Picture, Best Adapted Screenplay and other awards.
However, the little boy Jacob Tremblay in the movie won the Best Actor or Best Supporting Actor, which made Wang Quan feel very sorry. The little guy's performance was no worse than that of Little K.
Top director + top female star, the combination of Wang Quan and Little K has not walked the Oscar red carpet together for several years after the end of "The Twilight Saga".
In addition, there is a taboo relationship between the two of them with Dorothy, which also makes the two of them more topical.
The attention and noise they generated on the red carpet even surpassed that of DiCaprio.
Zhou Ming, who was wearing a bright yellow lady's dress, looked at the shining man in front of her and couldn't help but think about what happened on the plane. She took the initiative in that matter. She didn't regret it at all. She only regretted that she didn't take more initiative. Kill him on the spot!
Zhen Zidan also saw this scene, and she only regretted that there was no royal power in Hollywood twenty years ago, otherwise he would have been able to promote himself to the level of Brother Cheng Long.
The 88th Academy Awards officially started at 8 pm US time. It was morning in China, and hundreds of millions of viewers were watching the live broadcast of the movie channel on their TV sets.
Yang Mi in the capital, Tian Xiwei who returned to her hometown, Yang Chaoyue who was alone in a rental house, Yu Feihong who was still editing a film in the company, Zhang Zilin who was accompanying her parents, and Li Bingbing who was watching Fan Bingbing on the TV sourly, who was at school Zhang Ruonan and Chen Duling in class.
There are also Neon, Kimchi, and Europe. You can either watch the live broadcast on TV or watch the live broadcast with pictures and texts on social platforms such as Twitter.
This year, because of gimmicks such as Leonardo DiCaprio’s 25 years in the industry and his attempt to win the Best Actor Award, the super idol Little K’s success as a Best Actress with his critically acclaimed blockbusters, and the Chinese-language masterpiece “Parasite” being shortlisted for ten awards and leading the Oscars, this year’s Oscars have washed away all these years. ’s slump, attention is overwhelming.
At this time, "Parasite" was still being released in North America, and in almost two months, it earned 80 million at the box office.
Although it has been a long time, if the Oscar can win the big prize, breaking 100 million is almost not a problem.
This is different from the commercial blockbusters of King Power. It is difficult for even many top American directors to achieve such a high box office with a film that focuses on the rich and poor, or a foreign language film.
The red carpet session is over. On the left of Wang Quan is Xiao K, on the right is Liu Yifei. Fan Bingbing is sitting at the back, at the same table as Zhou Ming and others.
There is no way, both of them are shortlisted heroines, she is just a spectator.
Host Chris Rock came on stage, and as soon as he came on, the Chinese people present showed dissatisfaction.
He invited three PricewaterhouseCoopers accountants, which is also an old Oscar tradition, to prove that our vote is absolutely fair.
But the ones he invited were not real accountants, but three Asian boys and girls wearing glasses and holding briefcases.
Full of stereotypes, coupled with Chris Rock's usual ridiculing jokes, when the camera showed Wang Quan, he didn't smile at all.
He may also know that he went too far, so he added: "If anyone is uncomfortable with this joke, you can use your mobile phone to tweet in protest. This mobile phone was also made by these children."
This remark also involves ridicule about the child labor problem among Asians.
Wang Quan sneered, "Wait a minute, I'm Asian, your black brother will punch you hard at your bad mouth."
This is the host who was punched by Will Smith on the Oscar stage. Now he is still restrained and just makes fun of Asians. When he becomes more arrogant and black people will not look down on him, Someone will teach him a lesson.
It's just that the price of Smith's punch was too serious for him. After finally winning the Oscar, he was about to make a comeback, but he became depressed again.
After some teasing, the award ceremony officially began.
Wang Quan's eyes lit up, Sister Theron.
She and Emily Blunt jointly presented the award for Best Original Screenplay.
"Parasite" competes with Sir Alex's "Bridge of Spies," the animated series "Inside Out," "Spotlight" and "Straight Outta Compton."
When Wang Quan felt Theron's eyes meet his, he knew he was stable.
Sure enough, she revealed the answer, "Congratulations to David Wang for "Parasite"!"
The host of the movie channel is already in Cape Town, "This is the third time Wang Quan has won the Oscar screenplay award! It is also the first time that a Chinese-language film has won this award. He has once again made history!"
