At first, I just wanted to make money

The next day, Gong Li appeared in front of everyone wearing big sunglasses.

Shen Xudong didn't do anything to cover up, and went downstairs with bloodshot eyes...

Hmm, a little unsteady when walking.

I didn't have a good rest, which made my legs weak!

The reason is very simple, the sudden high intensity really challenged the limit - in Xiangshan, although she also exchanged art with Chen Hao, but she had to shoot during the day, and wanted to have a good rest when she returned to the hotel at night...

As a result, Shen Xudong also neglected to exercise.

In a word, we should communicate more...

Ahem, in fact, most of the main creative team are red-eyed.

After all, the publicity of "Old Thousand" has suddenly increased, and everyone is very tired!

The schedule for the next few days was tight.

First, I have to fly to Chengdu to run a few theaters, then transfer to Guangzhou for publicity, and then I have to go to Fujian, Zhejiang, Suzhou...

No way, to promote the movie, the fight is all about exposure!

The opponent is still "Harry Potter", if you don't play, who will watch you?
After a simple breakfast, a group of people drove to the airport. At the same time, the press release prepared by the company, including the previously contacted media, began to report on "Old Thousand"...

"The number of midnight screenings of "Old Thousand" exceeded 2500, breaking the record for midnight screenings of domestic movies with a score of over 150 million..." - "BJ Youth Daily"

"Deng Chao and Gong Li's new work "The Old Thousand" subverts the traditional Hong Kong gambling films, and Gong Li challenges the image of a femme fatale for the first time;" —— "Xin'an Evening News"

"Xudong said that the elements of gambling movies have long been played out by Hong Kong, so there is no new plot in "Crazy", such as poverty, apprenticeship, brothers, true love, revenge, a series of well-known commercial elements and plots. direction; but the overall effect is quite brilliant. It is very realistic, and I have always been closely connected with Huang, and the villain played by Gong Li really subverts the image!"

—— "BJ Morning News"

The paper media is relatively restrained, and the Internet mainly focuses on Gongli fruit drama...

In other words, a passion scene - put it on major video sites.

In fact, there is no passionate scene. Cao Baoping knows the review criteria very well, and even if he shoots it, he will not pass the review. Why do he shoot it?

Therefore, the so-called passionate scene is actually a clip of the two sitting on the bed and chatting afterwards, but the scene is very fragrant, which makes people think about it-maybe there will be a feature film in the official version!

Engaging in yellow is really the primary productive force.

The audience loves this set.

Therefore, "Golden Armor" is jokingly called "Golden Ru", including during the promotion of "Disciple", the passionate scene between Wu Yanzu and Zhang Jingchu was made into a trailer.

Of course, serious publicity would definitely not do this, and I found a lot of well-known people in the circle-film critics, planners, etc. to write and promote.

For example, Tan Fei, Gao Jun, Zhou Liming and the like.

"A very tasteful movie, the performance of the actors is really amazing, Deng Chao really knows how to act, except for his handsome and cynical smile, he fully expresses the feeling of a gambler from downfall to prosperity to relief.

Gong Li is sexy and charming, with a dark and changeable belly, which adds a bit of color to the war between men.Five-star movie, not weaker than "Manslaughter"! "

"I would like to praise director Cao Baoping. Compared with his debut film "The Wrath of Glory", "Old Thousand" is more skillful and delicate, with smooth narration, sharp editing, and cool camera language. There is nothing wrong with it at all..."

"The emotional scenes in "The Old One" are very realistic. Men seem to be like this forever. When a poor boy clings to a mature woman for nourishment, when his wings are hard, he still thinks that the little sister next door is pure and cute. If you change the order of meeting, you can swallow it Can I get the leftovers from the innocent little girl every day?"

Uh, it looks like a curse, but it's actually a compliment...

These people all have columns, and they must be published. Anyway, "Crazy" completely wiped the screen.

……

The story of "Grandmaid" is simple.

A male protagonist who likes to gamble encounters a blow at the gaming table and encounters a trough in his life. He meets a master of thousands of skills and wants to be a teacher. The master of thousands of skills rejects him at first, tells him not to gamble, and then gives him some small Take him as a disciple for a small test;
Then this life mentor was killed by the big villain, and finally the hero and the villain fought to the death at the gambling table...

By the way, the male protagonist in the middle, who likes to gamble, stumbled on a woman who was several years older than him, and was tricked by that woman to lose his underwear.

Standard teenager growth routine!
Of course, the difference between "Crazy" and other gambling movies lies in the ending!

In the last gamble where the hero Gao Ni gambled his life, he defeated his opponent by virtue of his superior skills.

If the story ends here abruptly, it will only leave the audience with the impression that gambling pays attention to technology, is not good at learning skills, deserves death, is superior in a thousand skills, and is invincible in both vertical and horizontal directions.

That's not the case with The Old One.

Gao Ni encountered his former enemy on the return train.

Shot in the arm and stabbed unpreparedly, he had a near-death situation.Later, both of them rolled out of the door of the speeding train.By hanging the backpack on the wall of the car, Goni struggled to survive, which was very similar to his previous life as a tightrope gambler.

At this moment, the backpack was pulled open, and the money that was exchanged for life in it was flying all over the sky, as if all the previous adventures and the days of blood licking had turned into a fantasy dream, and nothing remained
Also warn the audience: Gambling is a point of no return, a fragile dream, and has nothing to do with the level of gambling skills.

The ending paragraph is also an important reason why it was able to pass the review without deletion.

……

June 8, night.

In the living room of the hotel, Shen Xudong, Huang Bin, including the main creators of "The Old Thousand" gathered around...

During the promotional activities during the day, everyone was very tired.

But...we still have to wait for the results of the first day!
"I heard Mr. Cui say that our Golden Harvest Cinema has a very high attendance rate for "Old Thousand"..."

"Has Jiahe's summary data come out?"

"... came out, the first day was 53..."

"...Not bad!"

At present, Golden Harvest has only six theaters in China - four more are under renovation, and will have 10 theaters before the end of the year...

Shen Xudong's goal is: before 2010, there will be 40 Golden Harvest Cinemas with 200 screens...

After all, 6 cinemas, 38 screens, and a box office of 53 on the first day, is already amazing!

Cao Baoping on the side was very interested: "Is this a good result?"

Huang Bin put aside the popular science: "At present, our screens are 4000. If it is full, theoretically speaking, the market will be about 1 million on the line, but... we all know that there are no cinemas in the morning, and there are no screens at midnight after 12 o'clock. no one…"

"...Don't talk so much, just talk about our movie!"

"Golden Harvest Cinema's film schedule is 85%, so it can get a box office of 53, but other domestic theaters can't arrange this way, and it is estimated that it will give 40% of the film...I estimate that there will be 1400 on the first day. Between 1800 and [-] million..."

As soon as the words were finished, Manager Chen from the distribution department ran in wheezing.

"It's out! It's out!" He held a data sheet with an excited expression.

"How many?"

"1380 million on the first day... 1600 million if you add the morning and evening shows..."

Shen Xudong didn't look at the specific report, but said: "Okay, everyone go back to rest... The first day's grades are very good!"

"Chairman Shen... Is 1600 million a good result?"

"Of course, with a little more enthusiasm in publicity, we'll break through [-] million in five days!"
