Chapter 943: Private meeting
At the Hilton Hotel in Magic City, Chen Jiashang looked at the shocking box office numbers on the screen, and then thought that the two leading actors all declined the request to participate in the roadshow, and there was a sense of evil fire in his heart that he had nowhere to vent;
"The Finale of the Four Famous Catchers" was released nationwide on August 22, with less than 12% of the first day of the film schedule, and the box office on the same day closed at 11.2 million, the lowest box office record for the first day of the films of the series.
As the finale, the film's reputation is still not ideal, and the ratings of several professional film websites including 1905 Movie Network did not reach the passing line;
He had no idea why he had to regret today, but only hatred for Meng Qingzhou;
In fact, the 12% screening rate is not low among all movies released, but the schedule of the show is a bit intriguing. It is either the first game in the morning or close to zero. Even institutions that count the attendance rate generally do not refer to these two games;
The old man also smiled bitterly in the office. This really affected Chiyu. Fortunately, Lao Meng agreed to make up for him in other aspects, otherwise Wang Changtian would vomit blood now;
"Qingzhou, your move has aroused public anger. People will not dare to contact Wan Chongshan in the future when they issue it!"
Liu Sisi was still not used to being very close to Qianxi and Lao Meng in front of him, and asked Lao Meng through Reba;
"Haha, do I need to care about these things? I am targeting the Hong Kong circle. Those companies in the mainland are not allowed to enjoy secretly!"
Reba jumped up and ran to the refrigerator, took three portions of strawberry ice cream, served it to the two sisters, walked to Qingzhou, looked up at Lao Meng in a pretty face, her face was like a white orchid, and her smile was written on her face, filled with satisfaction and joy;
"Uncle, can you eat ice cream with me, okay?"
"There is no more in the refrigerator? I remember Xiaogu bought a lot!"
While opening the lid of the box, the fairy looked at the girl with a sarcasm: "Young people nowadays are really not ashamed. Two people eat an ice cream, and they are not afraid of being seen by Xiaoyu and the others, and they will teach the child badly!"
Reba blinked, turned around and made a face for the fairy, opened the lid and fed Lao Meng a spoonful;
"Sister Qian, I'm just eating ice cream, unlike what someone eats. That's just teaching children badly, right? Sister Sisi?"
"Ahem!!"
"puff!"
Meng Qingzhou sprayed all the bite on the girl's chest. The silk suspender instantly showed a slight slight. The girl's cafeteria is really not small;
The immortal wanted to fight back, but was held back by Reba's embarrassing appearance and laughed so hard that he burped;
I was idle, so Xiaogu suggested going to the screening hall to watch a movie, and he also had to watch "The Finale of the Four Famous Captures". Lao Meng didn't care, and he had never watched the three and four famous captains in his previous life;
"Do you really want to see?"
"Then what do you think we are doing? Xiaoyu and the others are having lunch break. If you don't watch it now, you will have no time in a while!"
"Okay, don't regret it!"
Although they cannot accurately analyze the layout of the movie and the logical integrity of the story, they still have a little superficial film appreciation ability. With their ability to withstand the movie, they all feel that the director has problems after watching the movie;
"Fairy, is your story related to the previous two movies? The plot is the same as those two movies. I just want to sleep. How did you post your hidden weapon? Without a starting point, I always feel that the hidden weapon has nothing to do with you."
The little round face walked out of the screening room, frowned with eyebrows, and asked Qianxi in confusion;
"You ask me? I don't know, it was arranged by the director, but I think this movie is OK, it's a little smoother than the previous two, right, Big Boat?"
"Forget it, thank you, you have invited Mr. Yu. This is the sword immortal of the world. Chen Jiashang deserves it. Also, is there any other connection between this movie except for the name of the four famous arresters?"
The whole movie can be said to be the whole urine point, so that at the end, Xiaogu guessed the time wrongly and thought the movie would last at least 3 hours;
Rather than saying that this is a movie, it is like an extended 3D version of the inferior domestic martial arts chapter. The special effects, dialogue, and performance effects are simply unbearable to look at it.
Sisi and Rebaba had heard that the ratings of the first two movies were very low. After watching the so-called finale, they realized that Meng Qingzhou's previous comments were still merciless.
There are too many complaints, and I can't spit it out;
"Xixi, do you have no martial arts guide in this movie? A few action scenes have been played in total, but none of them left a deep impression on people, and they all rely on inferior special effects to strengthen the effect."
Liu Yan's appearance was so dirty from the clothes to the lines, and he betrayed the two balls of meat on his chest naked. It was really a vulgar mother who opened the door for vulgarity - it was so vulgar.
The protagonists' inexplicable emotional entanglements and the dialogue between mother-in-law and mother appeared again and again, so that when I watched the movie, I would feel negative emotions of rushing up and punching them a few times.
The uniforms of the Six Doors are simply LOW, look at the cool flying fish suit in "Embroidered Spring Sword";
Several people complained about the movie and turned around and wanted to find Lao Meng, but were surprised to find that he was actually holding a book in his hand, which seemed to be a martial arts novel;
"Uncle, when did you fall in love with martial arts novels?"
"I have always loved it very much. When I was in middle school, I had seen all the Jin Gu and Liang Wen. When I was just director, I thought about adapting Wen Ruian's Shenzhou Hero series!"
In Meng Qingzhou's view, it is almost impossible for Wen Rui'an's novel to be filmed according to the original plot;
How many young people are willing to watch TV series without love between men and women? Anyway, he doesn't want to;
Among the four famous catchers, there are not many love scenes for men and women, but the four pig's feet have even fewer love scenes. How many viewers nowadays like watching martial arts? Love is like a tornado coming and going without a trace, and the two fall in love with each other. Tie Hand and Xiao Zhen, Leng Blood and Xi Meihong, Chasing Life and Li, Cold Blood and Xiao Dao, unlike Jin Yong's Gu Long's novels, all love and hate have origins.
In addition to the story of Wuqing and Tang Liexiang, it is absolutely great to take out the story alone and make it into a TV series!
The four famous arrests lack a clear main line, and there will always be extremely bloody murders. The four famous arrests will solve the case, and the layers of traps are revealed. If they are shot according to the original work, they will definitely have an atmosphere like a horror film, and the audience will be scared away;
Where to go to box office and ratings!
The advantage of Wen Ruian's novels is to create an atmosphere of parts and fragments. It can be said to the extreme. Most of its works feel pale in the middle section, and the whole story itself is even more dull.
Small bags are shaking so much that they are fascinating, but the middle bags are shaking the same (always have various rankings, one mountain is higher than the other, and one is stronger than the other), and excellent big bags are even rarer.
In terms of text, he is also at the extreme and even beyond the normal range. People who like it may like it very much, but others are inevitably a little difficult to enjoy. As for character portrayal, it feels like Wen Ruian's weakness. In addition to some characters in the Xiao Qiushui series, it can also make people feel some characteristics. Even the four representative works are famous, from the differences in personality and the inner shaping of characters, they do not leave any deep impression on readers.
If you really want to give Wen Rui'an an evaluation, Lao Meng believes that he ranks behind Jin Yong, Liang Yusheng and Gu Long, and is the last of the four masters of martial arts. If you take the entertainment value theory of martial arts novels themselves, his works even surpass Liang Yusheng's works to rank third.
However, as a vernacular novelist, as a vernacular novelist, Jin Yong can still be called the master of vernacular novels, Liang Yusheng can also be said to be a well-known writer, Gu Long can be regarded as a strange hero who took a different approach, and Wen Rui's works, if you look at them in such a category, it is probably difficult to be a word "home"
"Shenzhou Heroes?" The little girl snatched the novel from Lao Meng. When she saw the cover "Heroes of Guangdong and Guangxi", she tilted her head and thought for a while, but she still had no impression;
"Don't think about it. You were only 3 years old when this book was published. You must have never even heard of the name!"
Qianxi followed and added a knife: "Big Boat, you don't know this. The little girl likes to read novels that girls work very hard. Some time ago, I saw her holding a book "Good Weather for One Person". You're right, Xiao Di!"
Sisi was still thinking about asking a few words for Reba, but was pulled forward by Xiaogu. While walking, she said to her in a low voice: "Don't pay attention to them. The vixen is not here and there is no Zixuan's care. These two are the most unstable. If you say something more, you might be pulling you!"
"Aren't Qingzhou afraid that they will start arguing?"
"He? I wish we had a quarrel. It was not him who benefited in the end. Lao Meng is becoming more and more cunning now, and sometimes he will deliberately make trouble. Sisi, be careful!"
"ah?"
Liu Sisi didn't expect Xiaogu to say this. She looked back in surprise and found that Lao Meng leaned against the corner of the wall, watching with interesting interest in Qianqian and Xiaodi;
"How is it, I'm right, Sisi, learn a little bit. I used to be similar to you. When I saw them arguing, I always wanted to be a friend, but in the end I was all the ones who suffered. If it weren't for Sister Yaya's helping me, I would have been eaten by the vixen and the others!"
Who said that Xiaolong’s face is a silly person? Isn’t this quite good at fooling people?
Zhong Li watched the film list in September. In the whole month, there was nothing that could be played except "Animals Are Crazy". In order to stagger the release time with Zu Feng's "Big Man", she decided to upgrade "Call to Roar";
"Mr. Zhong, the storm of "The Four Famous Captains" has not yet passed. Let's raise it again, and many companies will have their opinions!"
Yang Yuanheng and Yuan Yumei were worriedly persuading Zhong Liz. In recent days, because of the ruthlessness of Wanchongshan Cinema, many artists from Hong Kong and Taiwan circles and behind-the-scenes staff complained about "The Four Famous Captains" in the media;
"What do you think! We didn't schedule the film for "Four Famous Captains"? Lao Yang, Mei Jie, don't pay attention to those people. Since they can be the first day of the junior high school, we can't blame Mr. Meng for being the fifteenth. Besides, do you think that people in China are complaining about them? Everyone knows clearly when did these Hong Kong and Taiwan respect our mainland? I think Mr. Meng did nothing wrong this time. It may be a bit too much to say that killing one to warn hundreds, but it's no big deal to teach a lesson!"
Yuan Yumei couldn't say that Meng Qingzhou was too impulsive. In her opinion, there could be a better way. With the strength of Wan Chongshan and Qingzhou, there was no need to put the conflict on the table. She was a veteran and a veteran of the company. Many times, Zhong Lidian would respect her opinions;
"Mr. Zhong, do you think this is OK? Let Li Minghe add some filming to "Four Famous Captains" and don't consider the golden game. In this way, everyone can get through it. How about it?"
Meng Qingzhou pushed the door and happened to hear Yuan Yumei's proposal. To be fair, he did not intend to completely kill the four famous arrests and give a lesson that would make those Hong Kong and Taiwan honest in the future!
"My sister's advice is good. Mr. Zhong, arrange the release of "Call" as soon as possible. Lao Yang should also accelerate the publicity. In addition, I will let iQiyi promote incoming calls on their platform. You can give them the promotional trailer today!"
No one expected that Meng Qingzhou would raise it high and put it down gently, thinking that he would not let Chen Jia go this time;
"OK, just do as Mr. Meng said. Lao Yang, don't stop the promotion of "Big Man". Li Ming and the other side, I'll call him later. He should know how to arrange it!"
After talking about the main business, Meng Qingzhou returned to his office, and there was a harsh little girl waiting for his reply;
After Chen Yuqi received the film contract for "The Unsincere" and spent a week reading the novel, she contacted Tangren again. When she learned that the start-up time was set in late October, the little beauty's thoughts hit Meng Qingzhou;
Several bosses from Lao Meng’s family are filming and promoting. Zhao Xiaogu is currently at home. After Chen Yuqi found out the news, she happily arranged today’s date;
"I'm done, where are you?"
After Meng Qingzhou sent a message to Chen Yuqi, he asked in the WeChat group again, did he ask in advance if Xiaogu’s advertisement was filmed? If Xiaolong’s face had any requirements, he could also make arrangements in time;
"I'm still early, I've only photographed two. Husband, don't worry about me anymore. I guess I can only eat dinner in the studio!"
"Sure, if you want me to pick you up, please notify me earlier. The traffic jams have been very serious these days!"
Xiaolong Face replied with a smile and continued to shoot;
Chen Yuqi's news also came: "I'll go to the parking lot to wait for you. We will go back to my house later and make delicious food for you at noon. By the way, don't forget to change the car!"
Jing Chen and Li Xuan both went to the crew. Chen Yuqi rented a small apartment without telling them. As a secret place to have a private meeting with someone, this is the first time this is going there;
"You can cook?" Meng Qingzhou asked in a silly manner, took out a long box from the drawer and left the office;
After successfully leaving his assistant, Yuqi hid in the corner of the parking lot. Seeing Meng Qingzhou questioning, she bit her lip unwillingly replied to him: "Look at me, I can cook a lot of dishes. There are a few girls from the Tianfu Country who can't cook. Let you see my skills later, hum!"
"Then I'll wait and see?"
Meng Qingzhou could not leave Lao Gao and the security guard. When he arrived at the parking lot, he saw Gao Feng driving a Mercedes-Benz business and asked Zhao Gang: "When did I buy this car? Don't you still have two RVs?"
"Boss, the reporters of the RV know that we asked Assistant Zhou and she suggested that we buy this business car. If you are not satisfied, you can change it!"
Lao Meng waved his hand and looked around, wondering where Chen Yuqi had gone, a small head emerged from the corner, and the eccentric stuck out his tongue at him;
Chapter completed!
