Almighty Daddy: Opening Twins

Chapter 248 New Box Office Heights (Part [-])
The super high box office of "God of Gamblers" made many people dumbfounded. You know, there were two movies last year.

"A Chinese Ghost Story", "The Legend of the White Snake: The Green Snake"!
The quality of the two films is very good, especially in terms of art. Although "The Legend of the White Snake: The Green Snake" seems to have collapsed at the box office, in fact, from last year to the present, the literary and art circles are very concerned about "The Legend of the White Snake: The Green Snake". The favor of "A Chinese Ghost Story" far exceeds that of the same period.

The depth of this film, as well as the picture processing, some people call it the number one wind guide.

after all……

Although movies are very important to the box office, the problem is that whether the movie is good or not, we can't just look at the box office.

It's like the box office of the first "Swordsman" is more than 5 million less than the second "Swordsman: Undefeated in the East", but... can you say that the second one is really much better than the first one? ?
Obviously not, even the first "Swordsman" has a much higher status in film history than "Swordsman: Invincible in the East". After all, it is the first martial arts movie in the history of film, and it even guides history the beginning.

Of course, the status of "Swordsman: Undefeated in the East" is not low at all. After all, although he lost the title of the first martial arts film, it is now the highest-grossing one in the wind guide, and it is also the highest-grossing film in the entire Chinese language. Highest-grossing film ever recorded.

but……

This title can be surpassed. To put it bluntly, the box office record of "Swordsman: Undefeated in the East" can be surpassed by latercomers, and "Swordsman" is absolutely unprecedented.

And now...

"God of Gamblers" turned out to be 900 million on the first day.

"Nimma, 900 million, directly broke the first-day box office record of "The Legend of the White Snake: The Green Snake"!"

"Sure enough, gods can only be defeated by gods themselves!"

"Nimma, I feel that the box office record of "Swordsman: Undefeated in the East" is a bit unstable!"

"I also think that the box office of "Swordsman: Undefeated in the East" is [-] billion, maybe it will be directly broken by "God of Gamblers" this time!"

"Feng Dao is really awesome, it's just amazing!"

"I think I may be overthinking it. You know, the box office of "White Snake: The Green Snake" exceeded 8000 million on the first day. At that time, it was said that "White Snake: The Green Snake" surpassed "Swordsman: The East Is Not Good." The box office of "Defeated" has become a new highest record, but the final box office of "The Legend of the White Snake: The Green Snake" is only about [-] million! Not to mention surpassing "Swordsman: The Undefeated in the East", even the first one has not surpassed it .”

"That's right, whether the box office is high or not depends not only on the first day, especially for a big director like Feng Dao, the cumulative box office on the first day is likely to be the highest!"

Indeed, when the box office of "The Legend of White Snake: The Green Snake" appeared on the first day, many people said that this movie would become the new record for the highest box office in Chinese, but in the end it suffered Waterloo at the box office. , can also be ranked in the top [-]. Among Fengdao's films, the box office is not at the bottom, but the problem is that the total box office does not match the box office on the first day.

"It still depends on the next few days. If the box office of "God of Gamblers" does not drop too much, then it is possible to surpass the box office of "Swordsman: Undefeated in the East". A "Legend of the White Snake: The Green Snake"."

There was a heated debate on the Internet, but everyone was also staring at the next situation, especially those inside the circle.

after all……

[-] billion, if this is really surpassed, then this "God of Gamblers" will not know how much money it will make.

……

"Action, action, how many times have I said, this is not singing, understand?"

Bai Yu yelled with a loudspeaker that it was June and it was already unbearably hot, but these actors wore thick clothes, such as Monkey King's hairy body, Zhu Bajie's big belly and helmets, and so on.

It is precisely because of these things that when everyone makes a move, the movements are quite ugly and difficult.

As soon as I moved a little, I was covered in sweat.

Therefore, every NG is a challenge for everyone.

The watermelons on the set never stopped, and there were ice cubes in the car.

This is the filming scene of "Avalokitesvara", and the Putuo Temple in Jiangzhou was used as the background. The white jade is in Jiangzhou, and it can be regarded as a real return to the base camp. After all, the fire in "The Legend of the White Snake" made Jiangzhou do not know how much money it made. , but judging from the appearance that the number of tourists has increased by seven or eight times, Baiyu can be called the benefactor of Shangjiangzhou, after all...

Bai Yu basically did it all by himself, he gave the Jiangzhou Tourism Bureau better treatment, and also increased the income of many scenic spots in Jiangzhou, and these income increases, the local people of Jiangzhou also felt the same.

The filming of "Journey to the West" was originally a national project, and the following provinces and cities must fully support it. Therefore, when "Journey to the West" determined that Putuo Temple would become a filming location, they quickly negotiated.

And after that, knowing that the director is charming, it became more thorough.

In this episode, the battle between Sun Wukong and the black bear spirit is more exciting, and the fight between the two is naturally designed by Bai Yu himself.

Although the version in the previous life is classic, if you look at it from the perspective of future generations, there are actually many shortcomings, but this is also normal. No matter what it is, you can always pick out problems from the perspective of decades later.

So Bai Yu naturally had to redesign the design, the most important of which were action design and special effect design.

Most of the performers who participated in the performance this time were not serious professional performers, and many of them were from opera backgrounds. For example, the one who played the black bear spirit was a Peking opera actor.

Fortunately, the face of the black bear is basically covered, so the actor's facial expressions are basically invisible, which reduces the difficulty.

But because both of them are wearing a lot of things, and this is a Peking Opera actor, the fighting performance looks quite fake.

In addition to "Journey to the West" in the previous life, there was also a sequel to "Journey to the West"!
There was a gap of more than ten years between the two. Those who like classics feel that "Journey to the West Sequel" is too colorful, but... "Journey to the West Sequel" is also a classic, and one of them can be seen at a glance. Better than "Journey to the West", That's the fight.

The fighting in "Journey to the West", perhaps because of the age limit, is still quite dramatic. To put it bluntly, the way of fighting on stage is too strong.

But "Journey to the West Sequel" is different. The fighting action is much faster and more exciting.

These two are a bit like the Xiangjiang ancient costume action movies in the 80s and the Xiangjiang ancient costume action movies in the 90s.

The fight between the two was not long, but it took a long time to shoot. By the time the filming was over, Hu Tao and Deng Qingyuan were already slumped on the ground. After all, they were just newcomers, or they were pulled to play "Journey to the West", so there was nothing wrong with it. Assistant at all.

The two fanned vigorously with their fans, and seeing Bai Yu trying to mobilize other people, Deng Qingyuan couldn't help complaining: "Feng Dao is such a violent temper!"

Hu Tao is happy, and has a bad temper?

You haven't seen Fengzi's real temper tantrum yet.

You know, he is the actor of Monkey King, and he has been there since the first episode was filmed, or in other words, he had to be there for every episode.

But Deng Qingyuan is different. He is the monster of this ordeal. After filming the ordeal of Black Bear Spirit, he will leave.

Of course, there are some who follow the group, but the problem is that Deng Qingyuan does not follow the group.

When shooting Havoc in Heaven before, many scenes were very difficult. For example, Feng Zi made a big fireball and made one of the monkey actors do somersaults.

Hu Tao's own kung fu is very good, but seeing that scene, he was also terrified.

Nima, people filming is fake, how can you be real in filming.

The actor was frightened to death and never danced.

Later, Fengzi was so angry that she demonstrated it by herself.

Well, the person really jumped over, and it looked very relaxed. The monkey actor finally jumped, but luckily he was fine.

Then there is the fight between him and Yang Jian. Many moves are more difficult to do. After all, the fight between the two is evenly matched, so the performance must be very exciting.

And the most important thing is that one of the two is a fairy and the other is a monster monkey, so the fights are basically in the air.

I'm not very familiar with that Wia Hutao, and the one who plays Yang Jian is a little afraid of heights. The shooting took longer that time, which caused Fengzi to finally get angry...

"However, Feng Dao is really strong. When filming "Journey to the West", he went to shoot "God of Gamblers" temporarily. The box office was really high. Hey, it's a pity that I haven't had time to watch it yet!"

"God of Gamblers" was released the day before yesterday, today is the second day!

Hu Tao nodded, rested last night, and he also got that super high box office, almost 9000 million, which is really awesome.

Not sure how much it will be today.

Calculating the time, it should be about the same, but both of them had makeup on, and their phones were confiscated.

Want to play with your phone?

According to Feng Zi, don't force me to hit you...

"Rest first!"

Bai Yu also knew not to push too hard, although he really wanted to end it quickly.

"I sort of know why your plays are of such high quality!"

Tongquan looked at Baiyu and smiled wryly.

Tong Quan is really playing tricks, but his current situation is similar to that of Zhou Minghang before. Although he is playing tricks, he is basically learning.

only……

With Bai Yu's appearance, there are many things that he can't learn at all.

For example, Bai Yu can guide the movements at hand, as well as the precise control of shooting.

Counting it, the sixth episode has been filmed. In his spare time, he would also look at the previously filmed materials, and found that there were very few waste films in the materials shot by Bai Yu.

This shows that Bai Yu has done a good job in connecting the plot and changing the screen. In his mind, there is already a finished film, but now, he is just taking out the finished film in his mind.

How do you learn this kind of thing?
He also really understood why Bai Yu was able to film an episode in two or three days.

Even if he looks at it for 100 years, he still can't achieve this level.

"Hey, they were all forced!"

Bai Yu shook her head, the broadcast will be aired during the summer vacation.

Calculating the time, it has been less than a month, and Bai Yu has already made up his mind. Just in time, he saw Zhao Jiancheng coming, and before he waved, Zhao Chengcheng walked over with a smile, patted Bai Yu's shoulder, and said, "Nuuuuuuuuu Ah, the box office of "God of Gamblers" is out the next day, have you seen it?"

"I did not see!"

With a nonchalant expression on his face, Bai Yu casually picked up a piece of watermelon and handed it to Tong Quan.

I did not see?

Zhao Chengli was stunned, and he was downplaying it so lightly?
He also picked up a piece of watermelon, but Tongquan was a little anxious: "It came out? How much?"

He obviously cared a lot, after all... Although he is a TV drama director, he is still a director after all. It is normal for him to care about the film industry.

Of course, the most important thing is that the director of this film is sitting next to him, he might be able to witness a miracle.

Suck, suck, suck!

Zhao Chengli finished eating a small piece of watermelon in two or three bites, then raised his right hand, bent his fingers, and made a gesture.

Tong Quan was taken aback, and said, "9000 million?"

Zhao Jiancheng frowned and said, "Ninety-three million!"

hiss!
Tongquan gasped, the back of his head felt a little cold!
so strong?
Eighty-nine million on the first day!

This statistic is already very scary. You know, with his reputation of grace, basically his films must have the highest box office on the first day.

but……

It's like last year's film.

Whether it's "The Legend of the White Snake: The Green Snake", which set a record on the first day and then encountered Waterloo later, or "A Chinese Ghost Story", which has double Feng Shui at the word-of-mouth box office, basically the box office is the highest on the first day, and the subsequent ones gradually decrease.

To put it bluntly, if Baiyu's current film wants to surpass the box office of the first day, the quality of the film must be excellent, and this kind of excellence is not simply excellent, it must be better than his own previous films.

It is too difficult to be better than Fengzi's own film.

Check out his videos.

"The True Colors of a Hero", "Swordsman", "A Chinese Ghost Story"...

It's just crazy!

but……

"God of Gamblers" did it.

Although it's only 400 million more than the first day's box office, but... the 400 million has already told everyone the fact that the box office of the movie "God of Gamblers" is going to explode!

Tong Quan looked at Bai Yu, who was eating watermelon, with a calm expression on his face, as if he was really serious about eating watermelon, and it seemed that the ninety-three million beast that Zhao Chengli said had nothing to do with him.

No, even if there is no half-money relationship, as a director in the industry, shouldn't you be a little surprised?
"Hey, what about you, can you give me some feedback?"

Zhao Chengli rolled his eyes at Baiyu, feeling a little helpless.

After all, he came here in such a hurry, just to be happy together.

Throwing away the watermelon rind, Bai Yu wiped his mouth and said, "What kind of reaction do you want?" He said with a grin, "That's it?"

Zhao Chengli: ...

"I happen to have something to see you!"

"Oh, what's the matter?"

"I'm going to shoot the first [-] episodes, let the director do the rest!"

Zhao Chengli: ...

He froze for a moment and looked at Tongquan.

Tong Quan was taken aback, and quickly waved his hands: "Don't look at me, it has nothing to do with me!"

Zhao Chengli looked puzzled, he thought Tongquan had something in mind.

"why?"

"You think I'm free, I'm busy too, okay, and if I can shoot twenty episodes, it's pretty good!"

Bai Yu was very helpless: "Besides, it's been twenty episodes. With the abilities of the co-director and the others, I should be able to figure out the routine of Journey to the West thoroughly. To put it bluntly, this scene is actually not difficult to shoot at all. After the doorway, just follow the template and set it inside!"

This is different from "Story of the Stone". After all, it's a shot to change a place. To put it bluntly, it's just changing the map all the time, it's not difficult.

"Ha, see you later!"

Zhao Chengli was vague and did not give a definite response. He obviously did not want Bai Yu to withdraw, after all...

Bai Yu said it was very simple, what if?
After all, this drama will be released in the summer vacation. According to Bai Yu, it will be filmed and broadcast at the same time. What if the replacement directly leads to a major decline in the drama?
This is no child's play!
Bai Yu also knew that there was no rush for this matter.

……

"God of Gamblers", Grace, Ninety Three Million
"Da Dyefang", Hongyu, 1000 million!

"Children's Secret", Qin Zheng, 900 million!

……

After the data released the next day, it immediately caused a huge commotion.

You know, before this, many people speculated that "God of Gamblers" might become the second "The Legend of the White Snake: The Green Snake", and some people speculated that "God of Gamblers" would at least not be as good as "Swordsman: The Undefeated in the East". The difference is too much. A small group of people think that "God of Gamblers" should replace "Swordsman: Undefeated in the East" and become the new Chinese box office king.

but……

Even netizens who speculate that "God of Gamblers" will surpass "Swordsman: The Undefeated in the East" would not think that the box office of "God of Gamblers" on the second day will be higher than the first day!
after all……

It's only been two days, and the box office has directly accumulated to a little over [-] million.

According to this trend, let alone 20 days, it is very likely that it will break one billion in [-] days.

And once it reaches one billion in fifteen days, then... the box office of "God of Gamblers" may be much higher than the box office of "Swordsman: Undefeated in the East".

This is too unexpected.

"Nimma, nine thousand three million is okay, just ask, who the hell is it?"

"Nine thousand three million, even higher than the first day, catching up with "Swordsman: Undefeated in the East" is just around the corner!"

"Catch up? There are nine out of ten chances that we will overtake him!"

"Although "God of Gamblers" is good-looking, but... I don't think it's as good-looking as "Swordsman: The Eastern Unbeaten"!"

"Yup!"

"Let's put it this way, the audience for costume dramas will always be smaller than modern dramas!"

"That's right, especially in the film industry. Whether it was decades ago or now, comedies have always been the largest area in the film industry. Urban comedies are far more attractive than costume comedies. After all, they have a better sense of substitution!"

"Although the film "God of Gamblers" has no connotation, it can even be said that it is a proper commercial film, but...his control of the audience's emotions can be said to be the ultimate, which is why there is Many people choose to go in twice, three times, or even four times!"

"That's right, whether it's movies, music, or other works of art, if you want to be accepted by people, it's nothing more than touching the point of the public. The emotions conveyed by the film "God of Gamblers" are always changing. Moreover, this kind of emotion is simple and crude, it does not require people to ponder carefully like literary movies, but it is straightforwardly put in front of people, and it is clear at a glance, so you can watch "God of Gamblers" without using your brain!"

"In addition, the movie "God of Gamblers" actually has a little bit of comedy and a little bit of personal heroism. Isn't this what the public likes?"

"It's useless to say so much, just one sentence, the audience will enjoy watching it!"

"That's right, the high box office of "Swordsman: Unbeaten in the East" is entirely due to Unbeaten in the East, but this film has given the audience a lot of regret, so it must become a classic! And "God of Gamblers" is A perfect closed-loop commercial emotional film, its ending is a great success. To put it bluntly, the plot is so simple that everyone can imagine it, but...it is such a simple plot, but it is revitalized by a new element. , I can only say that even putting old wine in new bottles requires superb technology!"
