This actor wants to pay more

Chapter 492 Half of the Film Industry

Huang Bo smiled knowingly: "You haven't paid attention to the box office in the past two days. The small times have fallen. Since yesterday, the single-day box office has plummeted. Now 500 million is on the line."

It was an exaggeration on the first day when I was a child, but unfortunately it started high and then started low, and fell down within a few days. Now the main promotion in theaters is Journey to the West: Conquer the Demons.

Some media previously predicted that Small Times may exceed one billion.

Obvious speculation error.

Unlike Wu Jing Zhan Lang, which is getting better and better at the box office, Little Times is getting worse and worse. It can only be said that the quality is not good. Once the reputation is bad, it is difficult to get it back.

Ding Xiu and Wang Baoqiang looked at each other and let out a sigh of relief.

When they first saw the box office of Little Times on the first day, they were both stunned. In the next two days, they were so successful that the media said it was going to break one billion.

From that time on, both of them were afraid of the news about Yang Mi and stopped paying attention to the box office or anything else.

Unexpectedly, it only became soft in Xiaoshi after being strong for a few days.

It was so strong in the early stage, but now it may not reach even 500 million. The gap is not that big.

This is different from the wedding night when the man said he was proficient in playing, playing and singing, but with the time to take off his clothes, the whole thing was done in three minutes.

"I'm just saying, this movie is not good. Sure enough, my vision is right." Ding Xiu laughed and took out his mobile phone to search Baidu for Xiaoshi Times' word-of-mouth reviews.

All scolded.

"What a lousy movie, money worship, unrealistic."

"After watching the whole film, apart from the luxurious scenes, it is luxurious. It shows off its wealth from beginning to end."

"The plot is terrible. In real life, how many girls in their early twenties can rent an apartment worth 190,000 yuan a month, inherit billions of family assets, and jump into the upper class?"

"This film is completely aimed at women's vanity. I don't know how many little fairies feel that they can be like that after watching it."

"The acting skills of the actors are too exaggerated and I can't stand it. I checked and found that except for Yang Mi, none of them are professional actors, either singers or idols."

"That's it, more than 70 million yuan in box office on the first day, is it money laundering?"

"It should be said that Director Guo may not be good at directing, but he still has strong connections. The film is all about real scenes, without any special effects or scenery. Many places can't be filmed without renting a venue if you have money."

"The most shabby place for filming is Guo Jingming's luxurious villa."

"So, their first-day box office performance was huge." Wang Baoqiang clicked his tongue as he thought of something.

It has to be said that the capital behind it is very strong.

I'm really willing to spend money.

In the early stage, you spend money to buy and sell the movie to create the appearance that the movie is very popular, and then attract wild audiences to the cinema.

A ticket costs more than 30 yuan, and every one can be robbed.

The audience is not stupid either. If the movie is not good, they will criticize it. Many people criticize it, and those who have not seen the movie but are eager to watch it will not go.

"So, Brother Jing is expected to reach sixth place in the history of voting?" Wang Baoqiang said with wide eyes.

"If we succeed, the four of us at this table will have three votes for the top six."

"It's four." Wu Jing smiled and said: "Tai囧 belongs to you and Brother Bo, Xiuchundao belongs to Brother Xiu, plus my Warrior Wolf."

Glancing at Huang Bo, Wu was surprised and said: "Actually, if we really count, Bo Ge's box office may be the highest, and this year's Journey to the West: Conquer the Demons is also his."

It’s certain that Journey to the West: Conquering the Demons will hit 1 billion, and with the addition of Tai囧, Huang Bo’s box office will hit 2 billion immediately.

There are also the ghost blowing lights, crazy racing, bullfighting and Huang Bo's box office in the past few years, which has almost reached 3 billion.

With this data, Ding Xiu is not as ruthless as him.

If you really want to rank one, two, three or four, Huang Bo is first, Ding Xiu is second, Bao Qiang is third, and he is only fourth.

Of course, just because Ding Xiu doesn't have as much box office as Huang Bo does that doesn't mean he's worse than Huang Bo.

Huang Bo's box office performance is so terrible, in the final analysis, he still counts as the second male lead. Ding Xiu has rarely played the second male lead in recent years, and has mostly played the first male lead.

Bao Qiang's box office is not as good as the two of them, but he has won many awards. Mr. Tree alone has swept away so many international movie kings. The combined international awards of Ding Xiu and Huang Bo are not as many as his own.

It’s hard to imagine that some of the most powerful people in the entertainment industry would be at this table.

This table alone represents half of the film industry.

Several people are still young, especially Ding Xiu and Bao Qiang. As expected, their world will be theirs for the next ten or eight years.

"Are you still there in Journey to the West: Conquering the Demons?" Ding Xiu looked at Huang Bo and said in surprise: "Who is playing the role of You?"

"What are you looking at? I, Sun Wukong, cut with a watermelon knife all the way from the Nantian Gate. I did not blink for three days and three nights."

"Aren't your eyes dry?"

"Fuck, what's your point?" After making a joke, Huang Bo said: "But it's quite tiring to work with Mr. Xing."

"He plays every role first. Actors rarely have their own ideas."

Zhou Xingchi is a weirdo, and all the actors who have worked with him feel the same way.

No matter what the role is, he always wants the actors to play it as he understands it. If he can't perform it well, he will play it again himself and let the actors follow suit.

Wang Baoqiang felt the same way: "All great directors are like this. To be honest, I'm quite reluctant to do a film with a great director because I can't show my strength."

The more talented the director, the weirder his temper, and he still can't defeat the other party.

When you encounter a disagreement, some directors will listen to you and it will be easier for you, but if you don't, you will have to act according to his ideas.

Under pressure, they as actors had no choice but to obey.

It's different when you meet other directors. They have great reputations as actors, and they have the right to interfere in the filming and script creation, and they can express themselves freely.

In short, there are gains and losses, and it is difficult to get the best of both worlds.

Ding Xiudao: "Then you become your own director just like Wu Jing, and you can act however you want."

Wang Baoqiang chuckled: "I don't think he has such talent."

He has an idea, but it hasn't been implemented yet. He can't brag about it. He will quietly surprise them when the script comes out and the funds are in place.

"By the way, Lao Huang, I heard that you took over Hong Kong. Are you buying shares this time?"

As soon as the conversation changed, Ding Xiu brought the topic to Huang Bo.

"Harm, don't mention it." Huang Bo took a sip of wine and said with a grimace: "Didn't I make Xu Zheng a little money last time? I owe a lot of favors and can't open my mouth."

"It would be better if I stay strong and focus on the high and low levels."

Wang Baoqiang was depressed: "Don't ask for more, Director Xu didn't even give me a normal salary."

Huang Bo obviously knew about this. He raised his glass and comforted him: "Business cannot be done without mercy and righteousness. It's normal. With your strength, are you still afraid that you won't get a good script?"

"Brother Xiu, please save up a game. Then we brothers will work together and try to get a total box office of one billion."

"Okay, no problem."

Don't tell me, Ding Xiu really has this idea. In today's market, even a bad movie like "Little Times" can make hundreds of millions.

It seems that it is not impossible for a few of them to join forces and make over one billion.

Huang Bo was the first to express his stance: "Then it's settled, let me know if there's any news, and I'll be on call."

Baoqiang responded: "Me too."

Wu Jing immediately patted his chest and assured: "It's okay for me."
