China Entertainment’s Born Protagonist

Chapter 442 No one knows this better than you
After having dinner outside with Liu Yifei and Li Yinxin, Zhang Nanyi returned to the manor.

It was already 9pm US time, which happened to be 9am China time on September 12th. Zhang Nanyi posted a message on the school network and Facebook at the same time.

"The fifth part of Nanyi Culture's seven-part series on time and space reincarnation, Horror Cruise, will be released simultaneously in 9 countries and regions around the world on September 14.

I wrote the script of this movie and produced the film. You can watch it with confidence.

Warm reminder: The genre of the movie is horror and suspense, so those who are timid should watch with caution! "

For the sake of box office, Horror Cruise not only had Zhang Nanyi as the screenwriter, but also gave Zhang Nanyi the title of producer.

This movie does not star Zhang Nanyi, so the current main market is still within China.

It is said that it will be released overseas in 23 countries and regions, but in fact the film schedule is relatively average.

For example, in North America, Horror Cruise was jointly released in more than 300 small theaters.

This is also normal. For a movie without big-name stars and an all-Chinese cast, it is already very good if it can be released in the United States.

It's only because of the gimmicks of screenwriter and producer Zhang Nanyi that so many theaters are willing to release it.

When Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon was released in North America, there were only 16 theaters open at first. It relied on word-of-mouth and marketing to eventually counterattack.

Zhang Nanyi is unsure about how much box office Horror Cruise will have overseas, because this movie was a huge hit at the box office in its previous life, and investors suffered a huge loss.

The box office failure of "Horror Cruise" once again proved that good movies do not necessarily have good box office, and publicity is also very important.

Fortunately, Zhang Nanyi has a strong reputation and connections at this time. He has more than 2300 million fans on Facebook, currently ranking third among all people.

After he posted a post, it was immediately forwarded by many people, including the Hearst sisters, Cameron, Zuckerberg, etc., as well as many YouTube and Facebook celebrities.

Many foreigners have learned from this that a horror film produced by Zhang Nanyi will be released in two days.

Some viewers who like horror movies became interested and decided to watch it when the time came.

Compared with the perfunctory publicity abroad, the domestic publicity of Terror Cruise is very vigorous, and Zhang Nanyi's domestic appeal is also stronger.

After his mood was posted on the school network, the number of messages quickly exceeded [-].

"Mr. Zhang's production must be a high-quality product. Brothers, don't be fooled. I will definitely watch this movie!"

"Horror movies? This is my favorite genre. I hope Mr. Zhang won't disappoint me."

"The iron rule of not being allowed to become a spirit after the founding of the People's Republic of China does not work here with Mr. Zhang! His love has an afterlife and Heavenly Road, both have similar scenes. This horror cruise must be a real horror movie, and it is definitely not a mental illness or fantasy."

"Hey, I like this kind of horror movie the most. I have already bought two tickets and took a female classmate to see it~"

"Damn it, there's a talent upstairs. The female classmates will tremble while watching horror movies. She will definitely throw herself into his arms, so you can have sex with her!"

"No, do girls like watching horror movies? I don't dare to ask them out."

"Are you stupid to find Zhang Nanyi's female fans? His female fans will definitely go to see the movie produced by Zhang Nanyi."

……

Originally, these days, because "Horror Cruise" was about to be released, Nanyi Culture's publicity was overwhelming.

Nowadays, Nanyi Culture, which has multiple platforms and good TV media cooperation channels, has very strong publicity capabilities.

With the release of Zhang Nanyi's sentiment on the school website, the domestic discussion about horror cruise ships has reached a boiling point.

Many video broadcasters on the Daju Internet began to speculate and analyze before watching the movie. Some people took out the trailer of the horror cruise and the interview video of the main creative staff, and took out the slices and analyzed them.

Everyone is riding on this popularity. Firstly, these videos have a lot of views. Secondly, some of the broadcasters are contracted broadcasters of Daju.com and receive publicity funds.

On the Internet, horror cruises are very popular, but in comparison, the discussion of night banquets has become very low.

Even though Feng Pants deliberately fired shots, saying at one moment that The Night Banquet was unfairly treated, and at another that there was no unified standard for official review, he also said that The Night Banquet was his most satisfying work and that he was not afraid of competing head-on with the horror cruise ship.

But the reality is cruel. The popularity of the night party was suppressed by the horror cruise ship. Huayi organized an advance screening event, and the single-day box office was only 220 million, which is a relatively low number.

You must know that Chinese audiences are not so generous now, and everyone's entertainment budget is limited.

After many people decide to go see the horror cruise ship, they will naturally save money and not go to the night party.

On September 9th, Horror Cruise and Night Banquet were released together, and word of mouth began to spread through the school network.

As for the night banquet, although some film critics were invited to say good things, it still received negative reviews.

"There are no stories to film in our country. Director Feng insisted on adapting Shakespeare's Hamlet, and the result was naturally nondescript."

"The lines in this movie are terrible, and they don't match the style of the movie at all. Especially every time Ge You appears, I feel like he's acting in a skit, which is very out of character."

"The night banquet can only hype up the news about Zhang Ziyi's naked appearance. I thought it was a big deal, but it turned out that it was just a bare back. With Zhang Ziyi's style, does it still need to be naked? It's a bit funny."

……

As for Horror Cruise, it has been well received.

"After watching the horror cruise, you feel like you have successfully solved a mathematical problem, which is very satisfying."

"I went to watch it with the mentality of watching a horror movie. After watching it, I was very surprised. This movie is not a simple horror movie, but has its own depth and ideas."

"It is indeed a work by screenwriter Zhang Nanyi. It has rigorous logic and a perfect structure. After reading it once, I feel that there are still many doubts that have not been solved. I want to watch it again."

"Horror Cruise is a very high-end horror and suspense movie. It is not an old-fashioned ghost movie. The horror and suspense atmosphere of the movie is achieved by advancing the plot. The infinite loop of reincarnation of time and space is completely closed."

"That's right, Zhang Nanyi's logical ability is so strong! This movie is so exciting with its links within each other. Maybe Cheng Kaige wanted this effect when he made The Promise, with circles within circles." "No, everyone does. Are you so serious? Has no one noticed that Yang Rong is really beautiful? Her figure is also invincible!"

"Indeed, when it comes to the movie "Horror Cruise", Yang Rong's figure and face are both outstanding, even more beautiful than Yang Xue. I envy Zhang Nanyi again."

"Mr. Zhang's aesthetics is really trustworthy. Yang Rong, like Wang Zhi, not only has a good appearance, but also has very good acting skills."

"Mr. Zhang is awesome. Not only is he good at discovering beauties, but he can also make them famous. Stars in the entertainment industry who want to be popular can just ask Mr. Zhang."

"That's for sure. Just count them. Very Tiantian, Yu Feihong, Gao Yuanyuan, Li Xiaoran, Dong Xuan, Wang Zhi, Yang Xue, Yang Rong, etc. are all made famous by Zhang Nanyi. Mr. Zhang is so happy."

……

The reputation of "Horror Cruise" is very good, and the domestic box office is also very good. The box office on the first day was 1900 million, and the night party was only 620 million. It can be said to be a complete victory.

Moreover, the reputation of the two movies is very different. As the reputation spreads, the gap between the box office of the two movies is also getting wider and wider.

The box office of the night banquet in the previous life was 1.3 million. If it can get 5000 million now, it is considered a high price. It is most likely about 3000 million.

For a movie with an investment of over [-] million, this box office result is undoubtedly a huge loss.

Huayi was already gloomy after seeing this box office result. In contrast, Nanyi Culture was beaming with joy.

Especially Yang Rong, whose face is glowing and energetic recently.

Even though she is lazy, she still wants to be popular.

Yang Rong had a good figure to begin with, but after Zhang Nanyi's massage and moisturizing, she became even more curvy.

In terms of appearance, she can attract a lot of fans, not to mention her acting skills are also very good.

It’s just that no one noticed it before.

Now that Horror Cruise is in theaters, Yang Rong, as the heroine of the movie, has immediately attracted attention from all parties. She has become an instant hit, her popularity has soared, and she has become another first-line female star of Nanyi Entertainment.

Zhang Nanyi only occasionally pays attention to the situation of the horror cruise ship. Most of his energy is still focused on the Avatar crew.

As Zhang Nanyi holds more and more positions on the crew, from assistant director to action director to music director, his voice in the crew has also increased invisibly.

Of course, on the Avatar crew, Zhang Nanyi and Cameron still had a lot of quarrels, but the crew was used to it.

Sigourney, who plays Dr. Augustine, joked: "If one day Cameron and Zhang stop quarreling, I will feel uncomfortable. Without their quarrels, the Avatar crew would not be complete."

Although the quarrels continued, Zhang Nanyi and Cameron's tacit understanding became more and more perfect, and their cooperation became better and better. The filming of the crew was still very smooth.

By September 9, there was another movement on the protagonist panel.

[Title of film and television work: Avatar. 】

[Character: Jack.Protagonist or not: Yes. 】

[Current character completion level: 20%.Random rewards are being generated...】

[Reward skill: Fishing, congratulations, you have mastered the basic skills of fishing. Fishing is one of the ultimate hobbies for men. Keep up the good work and strive to become the ultimate fishing king as soon as possible!

Warm reminder: It only lets you fish, not raise fish. This is a serious skill. 】

Zhang Nanyi suddenly had a lot of fishing-related knowledge in his mind. It was very comprehensive, including all kinds of Taiwan fishing, rock fishing, lure fishing, freshwater and seawater fishing.

Not only did he have fishing skills, he also had knowledge about the classification and living habits of various fishes, tying hooks and lines, making fishing gear, etc. After Zhang Nanyi digested all this knowledge, he could only sigh that being a qualified fisherman really means a lot. It's not easy!
As for fish farming, Zhang Nanyi said that this is absolutely not the case. He has never done such a thing!
Qin Lan, Chen Hao, and Taylor, whose contact information was added a few days ago, are definitely not fish in the fish pond.

We are just ordinary friends.

Zhang Nanyi was very happy to get a new skill. The joy of fishing comes from a man's hunting gene and is addictive.

When he is not busy at work, Zhang Nanyi has another hobby to make life more interesting.

It's just that he is a little confused. The skill of fishing seems not to be used on the Avatar crew.

As soon as he had this idea, Cameron came over and said: "Zhang, you told me before that the process of expressing love and physical communication among the Na'vi people should be different from that of humans.

So how do we show this process? Do you have any good ideas? "

After hearing Cameron's question, Zhang Nanyi's fishing skills flashed into his mind.

Combining his fishing skills, various images of the Na'vi people using their tails to seduce their targets immediately appeared in his mind.

Coupled with human beings' own communication methods, Zhang Nanyi designed several complete sets of actions.

After seeing this, Cameron sincerely admired: "Zhang, I have to say, you are definitely an expert on the issue of communication between men and women, no one knows these better than you.

Although the movements you designed are different from human communication methods, they are very tense and full of temptation and danger. "

Is it not full of dangerous temptations?

The fish also feels the same way when they see the bait wrapped in the hook.

After Liu Yifei saw Zhang Nanyi's design, her face turned red. She quietly said to Zhang Nanyi: "Did you get this inspiration from Sister Huanhuan and Yaya?"

Liu Yifei had seen the tails of Dong Xuan and Tong Liya, so she had this association.

Zhang Nanyi did not explain, but just said: "Art comes from life. For the sake of film art, we need to explore more in life. Just hiding it superficially is not enough."

Liu Yifei: "..."
