Chapter 774

one day.

Two days.

As time goes by day by day, more than a month has passed in the blink of an eye.

At this time, the time has come to March 28.

"The Richest Man in Xihong City" has such a hot box office, from investors to theaters, there is no doubt that they have chosen to postpone its release.

As for "The Great Wall", which was praised by all insiders at the time, its reputation among the audience had long since been reduced to nothing, and the negative consequences were directly reflected in the movie's box office.

After the Spring Festival holiday, its box office can no longer be described as being cut in half. It is really getting worse day by day.

After being released for a month, it was hastily released.

The final box office just barely exceeded 1 billion. According to unconfirmed rumors, I heard that in order for the film to exceed the 1 billion "mark", the producers of "The Great Wall" gave "free"

Audiences are given movie tickets, but these movie tickets are also included in the box office of the theater chain.

It was only thanks to the producer's saucy maneuvers that the film's total domestic box office revenue exceeded 1 billion.

Not only was it a huge hit at the domestic box office, "The Great Wall" was even bigger at the overseas box office.

The so-called Blue Star global box office according to Zhang Guoshi, calculated based on the exchange rate, ended up with a box office of 1.15 billion.

He is at least 4 billion away from his goal of global box office. This can no longer be called a cut in half, it is cut directly to the ankle.

Why is it said that the film industry has high risks? Zhang Guoshi's "The Great Wall" is the most typical example.

How many investors lost all their money, and even the theater chain lost a lot of money on this movie.

Perhaps even Zhang Guoshi himself could not have imagined that he wanted to lead his film to the forefront of the world.

But now it seems to have had the opposite effect, putting my older self at risk, and shattering the myth.

Because this loss is really too big.

For a moment, he himself felt scared, and he was afraid that he would never dare to make such a large-scale special effects production again.

Zhao Yu actually felt sorry for Zhang Guoshi. He felt that the director's level of filmmaking was really high. He just admired foreign culture too much and was superstitious about foreign routines, thinking that he could eat all the delicious food in the world with one move.

While reality gave Zhang Guoshi a big beep, it also alerted Zhao Yu himself.

After thinking about it carefully, he also felt that Zhang Guoshi looked very much like a director in his previous life.

He also made such a so-called large-scale Sino-foreign joint venture production, and after the failure, the director did not stop filming.

It's just that I no longer engage in such big-budget projects, but instead indulge in filming "script-killing" movies that I can't help myself from.

The situation of losing money has never happened again, and I even made a lot of money from the movie, but I can no longer make a movie that makes people feel bright.

No one will think that he can shoulder the banner of a major domestic film director.

As a person with the title of carrying the cauldron, he is no longer worthy of it.

As a counterexample to "The Great Wall" during this year's Spring Festival, it is the comedy "The Richest Man in Xihong City" shot by Zhao Yu.

The day before it was to be released, its box office officially exceeded 3 billion.

This is another milestone in Chinese cinema, and it was still created by Zhao Yu.

In the current domestic box office rankings, the first and second highest-grossing films are both films shot by Zhao Yu.

As a newcomer in the film industry, the name of a genius director is probably not enough to describe him.

Who the hell has seen such a terrifying new director? The only two in China to have a box office of over 2 billion, and the only one to have a box office of over 3 billion are actually a "new director" who has just entered the film industry less than a year ago.

Who would believe it if I tell it? I wouldn’t even dare to write it in a novel.

Just like the only movie that Jia Ling directed and starred in, she won the title of the highest-grossing female director in the world right after she came out.

The only difference is that Zhao Yu proved himself with his second movie "The Richest Man in Xihong City".

It's just the beginning of the new year, and it's not just him who has become popular all over the country again.

As the first male lead in both movies, Shen Duoyu also became popular across the country.

Various media organizations have called him the most valuable comedy actor in China.

The cumulative box office has reached 5.2 billion. He is not only the comedian with the highest cumulative box office, but also the Chinese actor with the highest box office.

These are only two movies. No one knows where Shen Duoyu can go in the future with the blessing of [Zhao Yu's works].

In the past, netizens thought that Zhao Yu and his so-called "Ten Billion Movie King" and "Ten Billion Film and Television Empire" were a very long process, but now I am afraid that it will not take a few years to achieve such an achievement.

Some people on the Internet have started voting to speculate on when Zhao Yu will achieve tens of billions of dollars.

Some guessed 3 years, some guessed 2 years, and some guessed 1 year. Among them, 2 years had the highest turnout rate.

Some film critics also called for the box office performance of "The Richest Man in Xihong City" to be viewed calmly, saying that if Zhao Yu continues to shoot comedies, he may not be able to create such box office results again.

Because judging from the movie "The Richest Man in Xihong City", many details are relatively heavy on routines.

The overall quality is not as good as "Charlotte", which is clear evidence that "Zhao's comedies" are in decline.

Although the high box office is very gratifying, we should not be too blindly optimistic.

Regardless of the commotion on the Internet, "The Richest Man in Xihong City" has achieved such box office results, and it will definitely have a grand celebration party.

So on March 29, the day after the movie was released, the film crew held a celebration banquet at Henghu Cinema City, and the entire banquet was also broadcast live.

The reason why we chose to hold it in the movie city is of course because it is close to the crew of "Emperor of Han Dynasty".

If it was chosen to be held in Dongjiang City, Zhao Yu would have to waste at least a few days. How could he have so much time to deal with this now?

As for other people's opinions, Zhao Yu didn't listen to them, and they didn't matter.

For other investors and guests, they can only agree with a wry smile.

Even if they didn't agree, it didn't matter. He knew in his heart that Zhao Yu would definitely not pay attention to them.

The one who has the biggest say in the entire production team is Zhao Yu, the director. Everyone else wants to support him, and naturally his opinions are the main ones.

As long as they play an obedient role, Zhao Yu will take them to fly together next time there is such a profitable project.

Fortunately, Henghu Film and Television City is the largest filming destination in the country, so there is really no shortage of everything, and there is no shortage of celebration banquets.

Judging from the scale of the banquet, today's celebration banquet was even larger than that of "Charlotte Trouble".

What makes Zhao Yu feel a little pity is that his friends from the "Beijing circle", except for He Qiuliang, who is still unemployed at home, none of the other friends are here.

Except that because they all have their own projects to work on, and they are all from the official studio, they don't like to show off.

Another very important reason is that Zhao Yu's climate in the film industry has already matured at this time, and there is no need for them to support him anymore.
