The big winner in the Lunar New Year slot is definitely "Taking Tiger Mountain by Wisdom", which is scheduled for both Christmas and New Year's Day.

After the holidays, the performance was also very strong.

However, the Chinese New Year is relatively late this year, and there is still a relatively long period of time between the Lunar New Year and the Spring Festival. During this period, Yuan Yuan only scheduled a major movie "Running Man" and did not include any large-scale films.

During this period, the Lunar New Year movies released in December began to decline. In order to boost market popularity, the General Administration released "The Hobbit: The Battle of the Five Armies".

Warner Bros. is dissatisfied with the fact that "Battle of the Five Armies", which should have been scheduled for the Lunar New Year in December, was forced to be adjusted to January.

But after watching the actual performance of "The Battle of the Five Armies", I am speechless.

The three-day box office of the first weekend exceeded 100 million.

It has become the most profitable film since the beginning of 2015.

The preparation teams for "The Wandering Earth" are making progress nervously. Cheng Yu'an flew to the United States with the sound effects team of "The Wandering Earth".

I'm not going to participate in the PR season, I'm going to invite people.

For the soundtrack of "The Wandering Earth", he wanted to ask Hans Zimmer to do it.

Cheng Yu'an had to hire the number one soundtrack composer in Hollywood no matter what.

Hans Zimmer has also collaborated with a major film company many times. The soundtracks for films such as "Kung Fu Panda", "Inception", "Sherlock Holmes", "Pacific Rim" and "Interstellar" are all composed by Hans Zimmer

hand.

Hans Zimmer’s resume will not be repeated.

The ability is really strong and the price is really expensive!

Hans Zimmer's salary is more than 6 million US dollars, which is already the highest salary among composers.

Even if Cheng Yu'an goes to invite him and can negotiate a friendly price, it will probably not be less than 5 million US dollars.

Hans Zimmer has a team to support!

"Why hire him?" People in the sound team were not satisfied with Hans Zimmer's price. "It costs five to six million dollars to hire him. He may not be doing it himself, but he must be leaving it to his apprentices."

.With this money, we can ask the domestic team to do whatever it takes. Hans Zimmer wants six million US dollars, and I can get it done with Teacher Tanton for six million yuan."

Cheng Yu'an has never thought about finding a domestic soundtrack, but wouldn't it be better to hire Hans Zimmer for marketing? He would also like to collaborate with Hans Zimmer.

Tan Dun, Zhao Jiping, Zhao Lin and his son are all top scorers in China. What Cheng Yu'an thought was that if Hans Zimmer couldn't be negotiated, he would look for him again in China.

Although he was not here to participate in the awards season, Cheng Yu'an couldn't really ignore it.

This year is a small year for the Oscars. There are almost no blockbusters at this awards ceremony. The nomination list is filled with literary and artistic films from various independent film companies.

"Birdman", "The Grand Budapest Hotel", "The Imitation Game" and "The Theory of Everything" are this year's favorites.

"The Theory of Everything" co-produced by a major film company and a British gang is the biggest favorite for Best Actor this year - Little Freckles has just won the Golden Globe Award.

Cheng Lingfeng didn't think about PR for Best Picture and Best Director, and she wasn't blind.

The genius shots and editing of "Birdman" are there. As long as the academy is not blind, no one else can take away the award that belongs to "Birdman".

The key is that "Birdman" has one thing that pokes fun at the old guys in the academy - it satirizes superhero movies.

Superhero movies, led by Marvel and DC, are raging around the world. Some veteran directors are particularly unfavorable to such movies, believing that superhero movies have poisoned the audience's audiovisual experience: "The audience is no longer interested in the story itself."

The satire of "Birdman" really played into the old men's hands, and coupled with the quality of the film, "Birdman" has always been the most popular film throughout the awards season.

The battle for best actor is between "The Theory of Everything" and "The Imitation Game."

At that time, these two books were placed on Cheng Lingfeng's desk at the same time. Cheng Lingfeng chose Hawking, who was more "famous", and abandoned Turing.

The North American distributor and Oscar organizer of "The Imitation Game" is Weinstein Pictures!

A major movie company is once again taking on Harvey.

However, some of Harvey's targeted tactics on "The Theory of Everything" were resolved by Cheng Lingfeng and his team.

Playing with political correctness, Hawking is too politically correct.

Cheng Lingfeng can also invite Hawking to come to the platform in person, and you can dig out Turing?

As Hawking gets older, he has become more playful. In recent years, he has been particularly keen on playing himself in movies and TV dramas, feeling that he has acting talent.

Didn't he have a lot of fun on "The Big Bang Theory"?

Therefore, he showed great enthusiasm in cooperating with the promotion of the film.

If you promote Turing's scientific contributions, I won't praise Hawking?

Although serious academics know that Turing’s contribution is greater than that of Hawking, Hawking’s popularity among the people is much greater than Turing’s!

Ordinary audiences don't care at all about Turing's contribution to computer science, but they actually saw Hawking on TV and on the podium. "A Brief History of Time" is in the bookstore and is the best-selling popular science book in the world. Readings.

Harvey organized a group of scientists to popularize Turing's science for the public and praise Turing's greatness. This is a good thing. At least during this time, many members of the public really got to know Alan Turing.

But no matter how much science is popularized, Harvey can't stop Hawking from standing up for "The Theory of Everything".

After the final nomination list was announced, the film studio was banned from public relations, and Harvey could only watch Freckles win the Golden Globe Award, the Hollywood Film Award for Breakthrough Performance by an Actor of the Year, the Screen Actors Guild Award for Best Actor and the The British Film Academy Award for Best Actor and many other leading actors.

Cheng Yu'an just took a look at the performance of the Oscar frontier and gave up. His target was Hans Zimmer.

The two parties made an appointment to meet at Hans Zimmer's studio.

Hans Zimmer welcomed Cheng Yuan's arrival and expressed his interest in Chinese science fiction.

But after learning that "The Wandering Earth" currently only has a script outline, and it would take at least three months for the specific script to be released, he hesitated.

The music composer also has to read the script, and he has to compose the music based on the entire story framework and character traits.

"G, I really want to help you, but your script came out too late. I don't have much time later."

Cheng Yu'an asked him about his upcoming schedule, and Hans Zimmer did not hide anything: "Nolan is preparing for "Dunkirk" and I promised to help him. You guys started shooting at almost the same time, and there is really nothing I can do."

"Dunkirk" is initially scheduled to start shooting in May 2016, and "The Wandering Earth" will be released around this time.

"If you want, I can introduce Smith to you. He is also the best film scorer."

Hans Zimmer is talking about his right-hand man Nick Glennie Smith.

Of course Cheng Yuan knew Smith, but his target for this trip was Hans Zimmer.

Instead of using Nick Glennie Smith, he might as well go back to China and hire domestic composers such as Tanton.

Hans Zimmer regretted missing "The Wandering Earth": "G, you are the best director, I can only add icing on the cake to your movie," Cheng Yu'an told Hans Zimmer about the details of "The Wandering Earth"
