Just after the box office results of the first movie came out, the theater company immediately sent a message to Star.
Under the eager gaze of everyone, Star Master clicked on the text message and had a panoramic view of the box office data of the first movie of "Mermaid".
After showing a satisfied smile, Mr. Xing coughed twice and cleared his throat: "Our movie will be shown at 12 o'clock for a total of 12,733 times, and the box office for the first show... is 2,800
Ten thousand!"
"Hiss, 28 million?!"
"Star Director, you're not kidding us, are you?"
"Twenty-eight million, isn't this higher than the first-day box office of other movies?"
"Oh my god, don't the audience sleep at night?"
As Master Xing's voice fell, Luo Zhixiang, Lin Yun and other leading actors couldn't help but be shocked.
The first screening was more than 10,000 times, which they can understand. After all, Mr. Xing’s face is here. There are more than 10,000 theaters across the country, and there is probably no theater that is unwilling to show Mr. Xing’s new movie.
But this first box office performance was a bit too exaggerated?
They have never starred in a movie with such explosive results before!
Even "Journey to the West: Conquering the Demons", also directed by Xingye, has a much more luxurious cast than "The Mermaid", but the box office of the first movie was only over 10 million.
If it is the first day of the release of other movies, theaters will usually arrange three to five movies to test the water, but this movie "Mermaid" is different. With the two golden signatures of Xing Ye and Lin Yuan, the total number of screenings on the first day is
It will definitely not be less than ten games. Based on this calculation, even if the attendance rate in the morning and afternoon is not too high, it is a certainty that the box office will exceed 100 million on the first day.
Even with such exaggerated first-time box office results, the movie "Mermaid" is expected to become the first domestic movie to have a box office of over 200 million on its first day!
In this case, it's no wonder that Mr. Xing smiled so happily.
When he thought that he was about to become an actor with a box office of over 100 million on the first day, Luo Zhixiang couldn't help but feel excited. After thinking about it, he suggested: "Our movie has done so well, why don't we go out to celebrate?"
"OK!"
"I think it's OK. It's an early celebration of our movie's box office exceeding 100 million on its first day!"
Actors such as Zhang Yuqi and Lin Yun expressed their agreement.
From the beginning of promoting the movie, to participating in the premiere, accepting media interviews, preparing for road shows... After this combination of punches, the creative team has not had much rest this month, and now the movie is opening
After the box office came out and it was confirmed that the box office on the first day would exceed 100 million, the stone hanging in everyone's heart finally fell.
It is understandable to want to take this time to go out to celebrate and relax.
Master Xing did not sway everyone's interest, and replied very readily: "Okay, you can go and relax together. Then just ask Producer Jiang to reimburse the expenses. But I won't go, I still have some things on hand."
If he had been ten or twenty years younger, I am afraid that Luo Zhixiang would not even have to say anything, and Mr. Xing would just take everyone out to celebrate.
Secondly, he still has to talk to the theaters about arranging the film. After the final box office is released, it won't be too late to call the entire crew to hold a celebration banquet.
Luo Zhixiang nodded upon seeing this and didn't say anything more.
Instead, he looked at Lin Yuan aside: "Brother Yuan, let's go out and relax together."
Lin Yuan waved his hand and refused: "You go ahead, I have something else to tell Master Xing, so I won't delay you."
"Okay."
After that, Luo Zhixiang gave the others a look, and they all walked out of the room talking and laughing.
The originally lively room suddenly became much quieter.
Master Xing looked at Lin Yuan and asked, "Lin Yuan, you said you have something to do with me?"
"It's not a big deal." Lin Yuan took out a stool and sat down, explaining calmly: "I just wanted to ask Mr. Xing if you have any plans for the future. I may have something to do here in the next two days.
If the movie promotes these things, it might have some impact."
In two days, the Beijing Film Academy training class will begin.
He happens to be in BJ right now. If there is nothing else to do with "Mermaid", he can just go to the Film Association and get familiar with it in advance.
Master Xing patted Lin Yuan on the shoulder and replied in a relaxed tone: "The movie has already been released, why are we promoting it? If you have something to do over there, just go there."
Master Xing is not wrong in saying this.
If the movie hasn't been released yet, the publicity from the film's creators and the overwhelming discussion on the Internet can build up expectations among the audience.
But now that the movies have been released, the audience is not clueless. Whether the movie is good or not can be clearly seen by looking at the online reputation. This can be seen from movies like "Grand Trail", otherwise
How could it be possible that the box office on the first day exceeded 100 million, and then it only took 250 million after 29 days of release?
Seeing that Mr. Xing said this, Lin Yuan was relieved.
On one side is the movie promotion, and on the other side is the Beijing Film Academy training class organized by the Film Association. Things on both sides are relatively important. Fortunately, there is nothing on the "Mermaid" film crew, so he can rest assured to prepare for the Beijing Film Academy training class.
...
In the afternoon of the next day, Lin Yuan was preparing for the Beijing Film Academy training class. After a while, he heard cheers coming from outside the corridor.
When we asked, we found out that just now, the box office of the movie "Mermaid" had exceeded 100 million!
Although Lin Yuan has starred in so many successful works, he had a surprised expression on his face after hearing the news.
You must know that the movie was released on time at 12 o'clock in the morning today. There are still nine hours before the box office ends on the first day. Before the evening peak of the movie market has arrived, it has already won 100 million box office. This achievement
It's a bit too outrageous...
Judging from this situation, the movie "Mermaid"'s box office exceeded 200 million on its first day. It seems that it is not a problem!
In the face of such amazing results, Lin Yuan couldn't help but become curious about the reputation of the movie "Mermaid".
Open Weibo and take a look.
The cover that was supposed to celebrate the New Year has been replaced by a movie poster for "Mermaid".
The number of discussion topics related to "Mermaid" has reached the top position. Six of the top ten entertainment search topics are related to the movie "Mermaid". The remaining four topics are respectively discussed by netizens.
"Hot Pot Heroes", which was used to "whip corpses", "The Great Wall" directed by Zhang Yimou, "Three Strikes of Bone Demons" starring Guo Fucheng, Gong Li and Feng Shaofeng, and "Kung Fu Panda 3", whose predecessor had a relatively good reputation at the box office.
It's just that except for the movie "Mermaid", the comments on other movie topics are full of curses.
They all spend money to watch movies. The audience who watched "Mermaid" laughed happily in the theater, but they were in prison in the theater, watching the cliché and boring jokes, and barely managed to squeeze out a smile.
They are both Spring Festival movies, so why is the gap so big?
After surfing at high intensity and reading the comments from netizens for a while, Lin Yuan couldn't help but sigh.
The movie "Mermaid" continues Xingye's nonsensical comedy style and is definitely a masterpiece among comedy movies this year, but it is definitely not as awesome as netizens praised it.
Even if Lin Yuan is the leading actor, he will blush after reading the praises from netizens.
In fact, if netizens are really allowed to find faults, they will definitely find many shortcomings in the movie. For example, after the movie was released, many film critics have pointed out the problems with the movie "Mermaid", but this does not affect it at all.
They gave the movie "Mermaid" high marks.
The reason is simple.
There are problems in the movie "Mermaid", but the flaws are not outweighed and will not have any impact on the story of the movie.
After all, "Mermaid" is essentially a half-hour commercial movie. How is it possible to achieve perfection?
The most important thing is that whether the movie "Mermaid" is compared with "The Great Wall", "Three Fighters" and "Kung Fu Panda 3" which were released on the same day, or it is compared with "Hot Pot Heroes" which is also under the banner of comedy.
By comparison, the gap between the two sides is immediately exposed.
As Guo Degang often jokes about himself: "It doesn't matter how good I am, it all depends on the support of my peers."
This is the situation now in the movie "Mermaid".
They are also big-budget movies. The investment for "Mermaid" was 300 million, and the investment for "The Great Wall" was 1 billion, which is three times as much as the movie "Mermaid". Moreover, both Zhang Yi and Stephen Chow are top domestic filmmakers.
Logically speaking, the movie "The Great Wall" must account for the same amount of both box office and reputation, right?
But as a result, the box office of "Mermaid" has now exceeded 100 million, while the box office of "The Great Wall" has just exceeded 50 million.
Not to mention the comedy movies of the same period, whether it is "Hot Pot Heroes", "Three Fighters", or the animated comedy "Kung Fu Panda 3", none of them can be compared with "Mermaid".
You must know that the movie "Mermaid" was directed by Xingye. Even though Xingye's level of comedy movies has declined significantly in recent years, the skinny camel is bigger than a horse. With his familiar nonsensical comedy style, he can still make the screen better.
The audience in front of the curtain burst into laughter.
While the reputation of other movies has collapsed, and only "Mermaid" has exploded in reputation, more and more viewers have changed their viewing target to the movie "Mermaid".
As the last movie screening ended in the early morning, the first-day box office of "Mermaid" was quickly calculated.
After seeing the box office data on the first day, Star was silent for a moment, and then sent a series of exclamation points in the crew's group chat.
Master Xing: “!
!
!”
Everyone in the crew was paying attention to the time. After seeing Master Xing posting a message in the group chat, they subconsciously thought that Master Xing would reveal the first-day box office soon. However, after waiting for a long time, they did not see Master Xing post a message.
Second message.
Luo Zhixiang: "Master Xing, has the box office been released on the first day?"
Lin Yuan: "It should be, otherwise Mr. Xing wouldn't send so many exclamation points. I'll go take a look first."
Lin Yuan cut out of the group chat and opened the Maoyan software to check the real-time box office of "Mermaid".
It can even scare the stars and send out a series of exclamation points in the group chat. The movie's first-day box office performance is obviously extraordinary.
After finding the movie "Mermaid" by familiar means, he was stunned when he looked at the real-time box office column, which started with a 2 and followed by a total of 7 0s.
Two seconds later, in the crew's group chat.
Lin Yuan: "!
!
!
"
Just after Lin Yuan imitated Master Xing and issued a string of exclamation points, the others couldn't bear it anymore. They originally wanted Master Xing or Lin Yuan to tell them the box office results on the first day, but now it seems that they still have to do it themselves!
However, after seeing the first-day box office, other people quickly returned to the group chat and raised exclamation points. No one thought that the first-day box office of the movie "Mermaid" could reach as high as 280 million!
The box office on the first day was 280 million, which is a box office result that many domestic movies cannot achieve after a month of release!
After seeing this result, all the crew could not help but cheer loudly at this moment.
at the same time.
On major social media sites, topics about "Mermaid"'s first-day box office of 280 million have sprung up like mushrooms after rain.
["Mermaid" broke the highest first-day box office in Chinese film history, setting a new first-day box office record of 280 million!]
[The highest single-day box office record is established! A record of 280 million box office is achieved! 】
[Congratulations to the movie "Mermaid" for setting the fastest box office record of 200 million in Chinese film history! 】
Just after the first-day box office of the movie "Mermaid" came out, box office records were broken one after another.
Not to mention the netizens, even the entire entertainment industry was dumbfounded.
In the past, if a movie had a box office of over 100 million on its first day, it would definitely be something worth celebrating. However, after the exaggerated first-day box office results of "Mermaid" came out, the honor of breaking 100 million on the first day suddenly lost its value.
It’s embarrassing to say it!
But the most embarrassing thing is the movies released on the same day as "Mermaid".
Except for "The Great Wall", which barely exceeded 100 million in its first-day box office, the combined first-day box office of several other movies was not even a fraction of "Mermaid"'s 200 million box office!
Faced with the overwhelming news about "Mermaid", netizens couldn't help but sigh with emotion.
"The combination of Xingye and Lin Yuan is simply betel nuts and cigarettes. This is too rough. It almost broke the first-day box office record to 300 million!"
"So scary!"
"I don't know if you have noticed, but Lin Yuan smashed his own box office record..."
"Isn't this Lin Yuan stealing the box office? How come every movie he stars in breaks the box office record, dog head.jgp."
"Is this the strength of the double actor?"
It's a pity that Lin Yuan doesn't have time to read the praises given to him by netizens now.
After it was confirmed that "Mermaid" had achieved a box office of 280 million on the first day, Mr. Star waved his hand and took the entire crew out to celebrate. The investors also showered red envelopes in the group chat, and the entire crew was full of joy.
Atmosphere.
However, for other domestic filmmakers, their emotions at the moment are also extremely complicated.
It has just crossed the New Year, and the movie "Mermaid" has set an insurmountable box office record for them. What worries them most is that if their movie is released, the final cumulative box office will not be as high as the first day box office of others.
, wouldn’t it mean that you would lose face in the circle?
But at the same time, like netizens, they can't help but start to look forward to what amazing results the movie "Mermaid" will achieve in the end!
When the movie "Mermaid" was in full swing.
Lin Yuan, the leading actor, did not accept interviews with various entertainment media along with the crew. Instead, after the box office came out on the first day, he said hello to Master Xing and came to the gate of Beijing Film Academy again.
The difference from last time is that he came here as a student before and had to show an invitation letter to enter the campus smoothly. However, this time he came here as a tutor, and Teacher Li Xuejian did not give him any invitation letter. Obviously
I had communicated with the security staff in advance, and his face was the pass to and from Beijing Film Academy.
But what Lin Yuan didn't expect was that just when he took off his mask to confirm his identity to the staff of the People's Film Association, the surrounding students going in and out of Beijing Film Academy quickly recognized him.
"Lin Yuan came to our school!"
"Lin Yuan is here! He's alive, don't let him escape!"
I don't know if it was those students who shouted something in the crowd, but in less than two or three minutes, the gate of Beijing Film Academy was completely surrounded.
In fact, in Beijing Film Academy, it has long been common for celebrities to appear. After all, many domestic celebrities came out of here. In addition, many celebrities often return to their alma mater to give lectures, so after seeing the celebrities, they
, there is excitement, but definitely not as exaggerated as ordinary people.
However, after meeting him this time, the reaction of the students from Beijing Film Academy was so violent that it was beyond Lin Yuan's expectation.
But if you think about it carefully, you can actually understand it.
Lin Yuan is about the same age as them. He has already won the Golden Goblet Award and the Golden Horse Award for Best Actor, and almost every movie he starred in has a box office of more than 1 billion. The "Mermaid" currently being released this time has broken box office records one after another.
It will soon become a new record in the history of Chinese film!
The most important thing is that Lin Yuan has only made his debut for more than two years!
Under such circumstances, for most students from Beijing Film Academy who want to achieve success in one fell swoop, how can they not regard Lin Yuan as their idol?
Fortunately, the staff of the Film Association came over in time and took Lin Yuan to the lounge dedicated to the instructors of this Beijing Film Academy training class.
Originally, Lin Yuan thought he was the first instructor to come here.
But when he opened the door, a familiar figure was already sitting on the sofa in the lounge.
It was none other than Wang Yanhui, who had some dealings with Lin Yuan during the filming of "Heart of the Burning Sun".
Wang Yanhui made his debut in 1993, and has now appeared in more than 20 film and television works, large and small. However, he has played supporting roles in most of these film and television works, and his popularity has always been among the second-tier stars. However, his
The acting skills are not good at all.
When filming the movie "Scorching Sun", although Wang Yanhui didn't have many roles, Lin Yuan still picked up a lot of attributes from him, which is enough to prove how realistic Wang Yanhui's acting skills are.
Some media even commented at the time that if Wang Yanhui had not been limited by his role, I am afraid that the movie "Scorching Sun" would have given birth to four best actors at the Shanghai International Film Festival.
"Lin Yuan!" Before Lin Yuan could say hello, Wang Yanhui stood up from the sofa and stretched out his hand: "I heard from teacher Li Xuejian that a rising star came to the Beijing Film Academy training class this time. At that time, I was still wondering, who is there?
I can live up to the reputation of Teacher Li Xuejian, and now I see that it is indeed well-deserved!"
Lin Yuan shook hands politely to show his goodwill, and said politely: "That's all Teacher Li Xuejian's favor. I still have a lot to learn from seniors like you."
Although he is also a double actor now, on these occasions, it is always right to be modest.
It was not the first time that the two met, so there was nothing to be restrained. They sat on the sofa and waited for other instructors to come over while chatting about their current situation.
After some inquiries by Lin Yuan, he found out that Wang Yanhui's schedule in the first half of the year was basically free except for a TV series to be filmed in the second half of this year.
After hearing the news, Lin Yuan was both happy and a little surprised.
You must know that now, whether it is a powerful actor or a popular star, the schedule of the past two years is basically full, just to be the first to win the honor of winning tens of billions of box office. In this case, the movie is not lacking.
Not a starring role, but a gold medal actor like Uncle Da who can add color to the movie.
There is no doubt that Wang Yanhui's acting skills are definitely worthy of the title of "Gold Medal Green Leaf".
Therefore, after learning that Wang Yanhui had no film and television dramas to shoot in the first half of the year, Lin Yuan also directly issued an invitation: "Brother Wang, I have a script in hand, and there are still a few roles that have not been decided yet. Are you interested in giving it a try?"
As Lin Yuan finished speaking, Wang Yanhui's eyes flashed with curiosity: "You want to make a movie?"
"Yes, I'm ready to give it a try." Lin Yuan didn't say that he was hiding it. Since he has invited people to star in movies, he must be more honest, so he did not forget to emphasize at the end: "This is what I learned from Ning Hao."
Brother Wang, you can rest assured of the quality of the book that the director got, and the pay will definitely satisfy you."
Wang Yanhui was initially hesitant.
The reason is very simple. He saw Lin Yuan's acting skills with his own eyes during the filming of "Heart of the Burning Sun". As an actor, Lin Yuan is definitely the strongest among the new generation of actors. There is no doubt about it.
But at the level of being a director, he was a little unsure.
But when he heard that the script was obtained from Ning Hao, Wang Yanhui suddenly became interested again. After hesitating for two seconds, he replied: "Well, let me read the script first. If there is a role that suits me, I will play it."
Is this movie okay?"
Hearing this, Lin Yuan readily agreed: "Of course."
As he spoke, he took the script out of his bag, handed it to Wang Yanhui, and told him about the two finalized roles. Wang Yanhui flipped through the script, and the serious expression on his face gradually became
Be enriched.
After a long time, Wang Yanhui put down the script in his hand, exhaled a breath of turbidity from his mouth, and replied in a serious tone: "I accepted this movie, there is no one to play the role of a counterfeit drug dealer, right?"
"not yet."
"Okay, then I will play this role!"
As Wang Yanhui's voice fell, Lin Yuan felt secretly happy.
In his opinion, Wang Yanhui is very suitable whether he plays the role of policeman Cao Bin or counterfeit drug dealer Zhang Changlin, but Wang Yanhui seems to have a soft spot for such flesh-and-blood villains.
But who cares, his trip to the Beijing Film Academy training class was not in vain. With the addition of Wang Yanhui, a powerful supporting actor, he couldn't help but feel a little more confident about the filming of the movie "I'm Not the God of Medicine"!
Not long after Lin Yuangang and Wang Yanhui finished chatting about the film cooperation of "I'm Not the God of Medicine", the other three instructors from this Beijing Film Academy training class also arrived in the lounge one after another.
The other three mentors are Wang Qianyuan, Ni Dahong and Feng Yuanzheng.
The three of them are all capable actors who have been famous for a long time. Among them, Wang Qianyuan has also collaborated with Lin Yuan, and the two of them can be regarded as old acquaintances.
A few people said hello and briefly introduced themselves, and then sat on the sofa to chat.
It wasn't until the staff informed them that all the students had arrived that they moved around and walked towards the auditorium.
The process of Beijing Film Academy training courses has basically not changed.
The instructors decide the content of the assessment. The first is to see what the level of this class of students is. The second is to identify the problems and then give lectures to the students around these problems in the next two weeks.
Soon, the five of them arrived at the auditorium.
The staff pushed open the door of the auditorium, and Lin Yuan turned sideways, letting veteran actors such as Ni Dahong and Feng Yuanzheng go first, while he walked in the last position.
As the five of them sat down, there was a burst of warm applause from the audience.
This time there were more students participating in the Beijing Film Academy training class than Lin Yuan attended last time. In addition to artists signed by other entertainment companies, many academic students were also present.
After all, this is Beijing Film Academy. If students are willing to come and participate in this training class, they can't refuse them.
Under the look of the other four people, Wang Qianyuan stood up and said to all the students present: "Hello, fellow students of this year, I am Wang Qianyuan, your teacher in this training class."
"Pap-pap-pap-pap!"
As soon as he finished speaking, all the students applauded collectively, and there was no one who didn't understand.
After the applause fell, Wang Qianyuan also began to introduce several other mentors.
Basically, after introducing someone, the other person stood up and said hello to everyone. The students below also joined in and applauded enthusiastically. It was most exaggerated when Lin Yuan was introduced. The students in the audience even cheered.
Compared with several other mentors, Lin Yuan is obviously more popular.
The other instructors were not jealous, they just looked at each other and smiled bitterly.
After the ceremony, Wang Qianyuan also entered the theme.
"Everyone should have a small card on the table. When the time comes, you will be grouped according to the numbers on it. Each instructor will ask you to perform different scenarios. You can learn from other movie plots, or you can play freely. At that time, our five instructors will give you
Score, but this score is only a reference."
At this point, Lin Yuan also interjected and joked: "Don't worry, everyone, there is no chance of failing the course in this training class. You just want to stay, and we don't have the time to teach, so please relax and show your normal state."
Just come and perform.”
After hearing Lin Yuan's words, the audience burst into laughter.
The students picked up the small cards on the table and determined their groups. After learning that their groups were not assessed by Lin Yuan, they felt a little disappointed.
In their view, these veteran actors must be very strict about assessment. On the contrary, actors like Lin Yuan who came from Hengdian should be much more relaxed about assessment.
The order of assessment is from left to right, so Lin Yuan, who is sitting on the far right, became the instructor of the last assessment. After an hour and a half of assessment, it was finally the turn of Lin Yuan's group to take the assessment.
When other instructors were taking assessments just now, Lin Yuan was also thinking about the assessment questions.
Should I be tested on the emotional performance of "happiness, anger, sadness, and fear" just like when I first participated in the training class, or should I make it more difficult for this class of students?
After some thinking, Lin Yuan finally came up with a good idea, which was to turn this assessment into a casting scene!
There are still a few characters in his script for "I'm Not the God of Medicine" that have not yet been finalized. For example, for the roles of Pastor Liu and the policeman, he can find veteran actors to help him play the role. However, for the role of Huang Mao, he must cast actors from the younger generation.
Instead of choosing among them, why not take this opportunity to sift through these students, maybe you can find some good ideas?
After making the decision, Lin Yuan also gave his own assessment question, which was to ask them to perform the role of "silent and violent, silent but emphasizing love and justice".
More than half of the candidates have been tested, but there is not a single candidate who meets Lin Yuan's requirements.
After another young actor's performance was given a low score by Lin Yuan, Wang Qianyuan on the side couldn't help but asked in a low voice: "I thought the student just now was pretty good. What do you think was wrong?"
"The line skills are good, and the movement and intensity are also very good. The control of micro-expressions is a little lacking, but it's not a big problem. His biggest problem is that he likes to hook his fingers. This should be his subconscious action, and he will do it inadvertently when speaking.
It shows, just like some people like to nod when talking, academics can't even change their subconscious movements, and I don't know which teacher taught them. In short, I think he is not qualified..."
As Lin Yuan pointed out the shortcomings of the student who had just been assessed in a calm tone, those students who had not yet been assessed could not help but feel nervous. Even Wang Qianyuan, Feng Yuanzheng, and Ni Dahong who were sitting next to Lin Yuan couldn't help but smile bitterly.
I thought Lin Yuan would be gentle with these students, but he hit the nail on the head and directly picked out all their problems.
However, this also made the two veteran actors, Feng Yuanzheng and Ni Dahong, couldn't help but look at Lin Yuan. They didn't expect that at such a young age, Lin Yuan's understanding of acting was no worse than those of them, experienced actors on the set, and even
Even better!
The assessment was still going on until about three o'clock in the afternoon. When there were less than six students left, Lin Yuan finally found a good candidate that made his eyes light up. He originally thought that the last one could only be assessed among the students.
I helped the big one out of the short ones, but I didn’t expect that I didn’t have to do it anymore, the big one stood up on his own.
The student's name is Zhang Yu. He debuted in 2005 and has appeared in more than a dozen works. However, most of his appearances were in unknown literary niche films, so that he is still a relatively transparent existence among second- and third-tier stars.
Lin Yuan did not mention him starring in "I'm Not the God of Medicine", but just wrote down his contact information.
The Beijing Film Academy training class was still long, and he had to take a closer look in the coming time to determine whether Zhang Yu was qualified for the role of Huang Mao.
As the assessment ended and the students left, Lin Yuan also returned to the hotel where he was staying, making plans for his next arrangements.
Time passed by and Lin Yuan had already taught classes in the Beijing Film Academy training class for eight days.
I spend an hour giving lectures every day, and spend the rest of the time drinking with Wang Qianyuan and Wang Yanhui.
Originally, Lin Yuan was planning to let Wang Qianyuan play the role of policeman Cao Bin in "I'm Not the God of Medicine". After all, Wang Qianyuan looked upright, so it was quite suitable to play such a role.
As a result, I found out after asking that the schedule was already full. "Shadow" in March, "Lobster Detective" in May, and "Sky Hunter" in the second half of the year. The three movies are basically seamlessly connected, even if the scenes are interrupted.
It's hard to find time to come over and make a guest appearance.
However, after this trip to the Beijing Film Academy training class, two actors, Wang Yanhui and Zhang Yu, have been confirmed for the movie "I'm Not the God of Medicine", and Lin Yuan is already very satisfied.
Just when Lin Yuan was giving lectures at the Beijing Film Academy training class as usual, the box office of the movie "Mermaid" continued to rise like a mountain climber. On the third day of its release, the box office exceeded 500 million. On the seventh day, the box office had already exceeded 500 million.
Breaking the billion mark, as of now, the real-time box office data has reached an astonishing 1.2 billion!
There has never been any movie in the history of Chinese-language films with such an exaggerated box office growth rate!
This astonishing box office growth has made the art team of "Mermaid" very busy. The speed at which they make posters every day is not even as fast as the box office growth.
For example, I just finished a poster that had a box office of over 500 million, but before I could release it, I learned that the box office had already exceeded 600 million.
Fortunately, the art team has learned a lesson and worked overtime to drive out all the posters with a box office of over 2 billion. When the box office exceeds 2 billion, the official blog will release corresponding posters.
The popularity of the "Mermaid" movie has also made other movies originally released during the Spring Festival start to hesitate.
Originally, the movie was scheduled to be released after the Spring Festival, but the crew and the management behind it were still confident that they could rake in a huge box office during the Spring Festival.
But what about now?
Even "The Great Wall" with an investment of 1 billion has been defeated by the "Mermaid" movie. If they are stubborn and continue to choose to release it during the Spring Festival, the most likely situation will be: "Mermaid" will take the Spring Festival movie market.
After the meat was finished, there wasn't even much soup left for them.
This is indeed the case. On the thirteenth day after the movie "Mermaid" was released, the cumulative box office had exceeded 2 billion, becoming the second domestic movie with a box office of more than 2 billion. Even judging from this momentum, it has exceeded 2 billion.
It is only a matter of time before "The Secret of the Dragon" sets a box office record.
Just when netizens are wildly speculating when the movie "Mermaid" will break the box office record of "The Secret of the Dragon", Lin Yuan has also ended his training class at Beijing Film Academy.
Before leaving, Lin Yuan did not forget to talk to Zhang Yu about starring in the movie "I'm Not the God of Medicine".
After fifteen days of study at the Beijing Film Academy training class, Zhang Yu felt that his acting skills had improved a lot, and he planned to go back and think about it carefully, hoping to find a better crew to audition for after the new year.
As a result, before he left, he received a call from Lin Yuan. Zhang Yu was naturally a little curious about Lin Yuan calling him, but he was more excited.
He debuted in 2005 and has not made a name for himself until now. On the other hand, Lin Yuan has won two Best Actors Awards within three years of his debut. Moreover, as the box office of "Mermaid" continues to increase, he is now considered the most popular by media judges.
The actor who may be the first to win tens of billions of dollars in box office.
If you can establish a relationship with Lin Yuan, will you worry about having no filming resources in the future?
In less than half an hour, Zhang Yu arrived at the agreed place.
After arriving, he discovered that in addition to Lin Yuan, Wang Yanhui was also at the scene, which inevitably made him even more confused.
As if seeing his confusion, Lin Yuan said straight to the point: "Zhang Yu, I would like to ask if you are interested in cooperating with me and starring in one of my movies."
After hearing this, Zhang Yu was stunned on the spot. He never thought that Lin Yuan would invite him to make a movie!
You must know that with Lin Yuan's current popularity, whether he is looking for a veteran actor or a popular star, there is a high probability that the other party will agree. In this win-win situation, he does not believe that any actor can refuse.
What happens now? Lin Yuan didn't find an experienced actor or a first-line star, but he asked him, an actor who has always been tepid, to collaborate. How could this not shock him?
Zhang Yu recovered from his daze and quickly replied: "Of course I'm interested, but I don't know what role it is..."
"Don't worry, I've been observing you for a long time, and this role is very suitable for you." Lin Yuan explained while handing the script of "The God of Medicine" to Zhang Yu.
Looking at the scene about Huang Mao in the script, Zhang Yu finally understood why Lin Yuan had such a difficult test in the Beijing Film Academy training class. Fortunately, his performance was outstanding enough at that time. If he hadn't taken it seriously at that time, maybe
I just missed this God-given opportunity.

Lin Yuan asked: "How about it? Are you qualified for this role?"
Zhang Yu closed the script and nodded repeatedly: "Okay!"
"Then it's settled. The movie will start shooting after this year. I will call you at the specific time."
"OK!"
After watching Zhang Yu leave excitedly, Wang Yanhui joked: "You are quite courageous. Other celebrities directing and starring in their first movie would like to have an all-star cast. You are good at it, and you can take the right medicine."
Lin Yuan smiled and said noncommittally: "Brother Wang, how do you know that after filming this movie, you won't be able to become a first-line star?"
After hearing Lin Yuan's confident words, Wang Yanhui was suddenly stunned, and then nodded meaningfully.
This is the case for powerful actors. In fact, they are only one step away from becoming famous on a stage to show themselves. This is why the entertainment industry has always had the habit of supporting younger generations. It is not that these celebrities are helpful, but that once the people they support become famous,
Their reputation will also rise with the tide.
After confirming the cast of "I'm Not the God of Medicine", Lin Yuan will be very busy next.
Before the Chinese New Year, he had to gather the crew of "The God of Medicine" to ensure that the film could start shooting smoothly after the new year. Otherwise, it would be delayed until the filming of "Havoc in Tianzhu" by Wang Baoqiang was completed.
It won't be long before "Tang Detective 2" will officially start filming. By then, if he wants to find time to direct and star in the movie "I'm Not the God of Medicine", I'm afraid he won't be able to spare the time.
Thinking of this, Lin Yuan did not take a moment to rest. After returning to Shanghai, he began to prepare for the pre-production of the movie "I am not the God of Medicine".
