Chapter 166 Unprecedented box office height 【Subscription】

After the news that Hao Huan spent 52 billion yuan to buy a cruise ship to make a movie went viral on the Internet, in the past two days, the box office of "Infernal Affairs" has unexpectedly increased by 3000 to [-] million yuan in daily box office compared to the previous few days!

Therefore, at the time when "Infernal Affairs" was released for 29 days, 13 hours and 51 minutes, the total box office of "Infernal Affairs" surpassed the domestic film box office record set by "Decisive Battle", reaching an unprecedented box office height!
57 billion!
"Infernal Affairs" set a new domestic film box office record!

In less than a month since its release, "Infernal Affairs" instantly surpassed "Decisive Battle" with its unstoppable box office growth trend, becoming the highest-grossing domestic film so far!
And next, "Infernal Affairs" will have a two-month extended screening time. How much will the box office of "Infernal Affairs" reach in the end?
Now countless film and television people are looking forward to it!
Breaking through 60 billion is inevitable, but how much box office can it get if it goes up?Then no one can say for sure.

For Hao Huan, it is double happiness to mention a cruise ship and a yacht!

Coupled with today's "Infernal Affairs" successfully setting a new box office record for domestic films, then this is three blessings for him!

On the cruise ship that was setting up the filming location, Hao Huan said with emotion: "At such a time of joy, how can we not have a glass of Lafite from 82 to celebrate?"

Wang Lexin shouted terribly in an instant: "No drinking! You said you would quit drinking!"

Hao Huan chuckled: "I still said you are a stupid pig, so are you a stupid pig?"

"I am." Wang Lexin went all out.

"Okay, you won, then I won't drink."

Hao Huan expressed his admiration: "Then go get me a cup of Sprite from 82 to celebrate!"

Wang Lexin reluctantly walked to the big restaurant of the cruise ship. The cruise ship has prepared drinks and wine that can be stored for a long time, and also bought a lot of refrigerated fresh meat, fruits, and dry goods. A cruise ship of horrors.

She quickly came over with two bottles of Sprite. Anyway, now Hao Huan eats whatever she eats, and she drinks whatever Hao Huan drinks. Eating and drinking are already handy for her. No rejection!
Wang Lexin looked at the studio built on the stage of the theater in the cruise ship, and asked curiously: "Boss, are these green curtains specially used for shooting special effects shots?"

Hao Huan sucked on Sprite and said, "It can be understood in this way."

Wang Lexin asked curiously: "Why do many filmmakers use green curtains? Can't other colors work?"

"You can ask this kind of common sense question? This is an itchy hand. I think I will punish you for writing a self-criticism, right?"

Hao Huan explained to her: "Listen up! Because the basic structure of film film is composed of three layers of red, green and blue. And green and blue are the least colors in human body, so when shooting a movie, the color of the screen It’s either blue or green, whichever suits you better.”

Wang Lexin bit the straw, nodded and said, "Oh...remember."

Hao Huan continued to explain to her: "The vast majority of special effects movies are shot with green screens for many reasons.

First, the advantage of the green screen over the blue screen is that the camera is more sensitive to the green channel, and the best resolution and picture details are generally in the green channel.

Second, when there is a blue object in the foreground, green will have obvious adaptability when working on the mask part of the painting.In the process of drawing the mask, green has obvious reflectance, which is easier to distinguish than blue.

In addition, green is the most scarce color in the human body, so it is most clearly distinguished from people and the environment, and the brightness of green is very high, which can save part of the light and reduce costs when shooting. "

Wang Lexin was still biting the straw and slowly drinking Ice Sprite, nodded and said: "Understood."

Hao Huan said: Performing on a green screen set is a test of acting skills.When shooting, actors must imagine themselves in the special effects scene in their minds and rely on imagination to complete the performance. Only in this way can they not appear awkward during the performance and can complete the shooting of each shot well.

So when the time comes to shoot the special effects shots of the storm overturning the yacht, you will know what kind of devil Liu Yuxi and the others will experience next! "

Hearing what Hao Huan said, Wang Lexin sympathized with Liu Yuxi and the others in advance.

At this time, she was still curious about one place: "Then what is this pool full of green balls used for?"

It was rare for Hao Huan to speak patiently: "This is for shooting storms! When the yacht capsizes, the shot of them falling into the water is done here. You can understand that this pool is the sea."

"Oh……"

Wang Lexin understood again: "That means this movie doesn't actually need to be filmed in the sea?"

"I miss you too much!"

Hao Huan said: "It's just that they need to complete the scene of the storm here. In the next scene, they have to go to the sea, and the scene of the storm will have to supplement the scene of them falling into the sea, so Liu Yuxi and the others will continue They have to jump into the sea a few times, for them, this is the most uncomfortable and difficult scene in the whole movie, and even the most dangerous."

Wang Lexin felt even more sympathetic...

Fortunately, I'm just a small assistant, I only need to make movies, I don't need to act, otherwise I would be as pitiful as Sister Yuxi and the others!

Thinking of Hao Huan's fierce and stern look when he was making a movie, she was a little scared.

Fortunately, Hao Huan was a little approachable when she was not making movies, otherwise she would really want to die.

Hao Huan suddenly asked: "Has "Saw 2" been produced and submitted for review?"

Wang Lexin nodded: "Well, it was sent for trial yesterday afternoon, and I mentioned it to you."

Hao Huan made an arrangement and said, "Then "Saw 2" should be released on the Ghost Festival. It just happens to be able to take advantage of the last month's summer vacation. If you are abroad, you can also arrange a release as soon as possible."

Wang Lexin let go of the straw that was slowly sucking on Sprite, and said, "That's next week! It's not good to release at this time, right? It will affect the next release rate of "Infernal Affairs" and the follow-up box office."

Hao Huan said indifferently: "It's okay, anyway, "Infernal Affairs" has surpassed "Decisive Battle" and set a new box office record, and for a movie made at your level, who gave you the courage to say that it can affect the filming of "Infernal Affairs" How about rate and box office?”

"All right……"

Wang Lexin said: "Then I'll talk to Sister Hong and ask her to help arrange it."

Hao Huan reminded: "This movie can cost 5000 million to promote. Anyway, the production cost is not high. If it can earn 1.5 million at the box office, it can make money. If it exceeds 1.5 million, then you can count the money lying down. Your 5% box office share depends on how much box office you can achieve after working hard for more than two months."

Wang Lexin was choked by Sprite, coughed several times, and hurriedly said: "No...no, cough cough..."

Hao Huan shook his head and said, "Like a stupid pig! Forget it, since you dare not ask for it, then I won't give it to you! In case you get rich overnight, you will be so excited, and I will have to collect your body for you. "

Wang Lexin coughed until her eyes were red, Hao Huan suddenly said that she would give her a share of the box office, that really meant to frustrate her!

5% sounds like nothing, but if the box office is 500 million, this is a [-] million share!
Obviously, "Saw 2" is definitely more than this box office, and this movie will be scheduled to be released abroad in the future. If the box office released abroad is comparable to the box office of "Orphan Grudge", then she can rely on the 5% The box office share, maybe 1 million yuan will be allocated!
It was really scary for her!

She is not yet ready to become a rich woman, let alone a rich woman worth over [-] million!

After she finished coughing, she was able to speak normally, and added: "I can't ask for this share, I'm fine now."

"Small riches are safe, right?"

Hao Huan stared at the indescribable parts below her neck, and complained: "I don't need to look to know that you don't have a big mole on your chest!"

Wang Lexin understood. Why did this guy suddenly become unruly when he disagreed?
She took a sip of Sprite to calm her shock: "Anyway, I don't want a share of the box office, I'm not ready to become a multi-millionaire yet."

"Yes Yes Yes!"

Hao Huan scolded a stupid pig, and only this stupid pig would think that 5% of the box office share is too much and dare not take it.Switching to other directors, they would not be happy to give him 10% of the box office share, because Hao Huan is just a pure investor and producer for "Saw 2".

So the director is qualified to ask him for a high salary and a share, and even Wang Lexin, an idiot who takes the monthly salary of his assistant and works hard to make a movie, dare not ask for a share.

……

5 days passed.

After the opening ceremony of "Cruise of Horror" was held on this cruise ship, the crew lived directly on the cruise ship and started filming the film.

On this day, "Chain Saw 2" has already arranged its release time, and the pre-sale channel of movie tickets is only opened two days in advance, so the final pre-sale box office will definitely not be too high.

At eight o'clock in the evening, after the filming of "Horror Cruise" ended.

Wang Lexin jumped up and down and slapped Hao Huan in the face, saying: "Boss, after the release of "Saw 2", the screening rate of "Infernal Affairs" has dropped from 19.7% to 16.3%. It has fallen by nearly 500 million from yesterday!"

Hao Huan was on the top deck looking at the night view of the city on the shore, blowing the sea breeze, and said: "So, why are you running here to show off to me?"

Wang Lexin's untied black long straight hair was blown up by the sea breeze, and now she is also up, saying: "I have already said that the release of "Saw 2" at this time will affect the schedule of "Infernal Affairs" Rates and box office, you still don't believe me!"

Hao Huan couldn't bear it anymore, reached out to pinch Wang Lexin's face, and reprimanded: "It's ok! Are you floating now? How dare you talk to me like that! Did you forget who the boss is?"

Wang Lexin raised her hand to resist, but she still didn't dare to slap Hao Huan's hand, so she could only say aggrievedly: "I didn't, let go, I'm going to drool!"

Hao Huan twisted her face, and said a lesson: "Would you dare to show off to me next time?"

"Don't dare..."

Wang Lexin is very much like a brat who accepts criticism for doing something wrong.

Hao Huan looked at this stupid guy with a smile, and said, "I just watched "Saw 2" and the pre-sale box office in 10 hours has reached 1000 million. In view of the fact that this data is not bad, I’ll forgive you tonight, or you’ll have to stay up all night to write the 1000-word self-criticism!”

"You already know, then I'll go down and play with Sister Yuxi and the others!"

Wang Lexin was so tired that she didn't love her anymore. She originally wanted to come here to tease her and accept the praise, but in the end she was pinched and criticized. Fortunately, no one else saw her, otherwise she would lose Wang Lexin's face!

"Don't play too late, rest early!"

Hao Huan gave instructions like a parent, and continued to lean on the railing on the top deck, looking thoughtfully at the night view of the city on the shore.

After a while, Huang Hao came up with two glasses of wine.

"I just said why everyone was eating, drinking and having fun down there, but I didn't see you. It turned out that I ran here to enjoy the sea breeze!"

Huang Hao asked: "What? Do you have something on your mind? That's right! Come on, I just brought wine, let's have a few drinks."

Hao Huan said: "You can touch your left hand with your right hand! I have given up drinking, and I will not drink alcohol in the future. Drinking this stuff is boring and hurts your body."

"I wipe!"

Huang Hao saw a ghost: "When you were drinking at my house some time ago, you said that you would not be drunk next time and you would not return. It has only been ten days and a half, and you told me to quit drinking?"

Hao Huan said seriously: "I really quit drinking! Now I don't drink at all! If you don't believe me, then I swear on Wang Lexin's life! If I drink, she will be struck by lightning!"

"..."

Huang Hao was speechless, how could anyone swear like that!
He could only drink the wine by himself, and said with disgust: "Forget it, if you don't drink it, I will drink it myself."

Hao Huan warned: "You should also drink less! If the condition is not good, it will affect tomorrow's shooting, then I will not scold you to death!"

Huang Hao took a sip of red wine and said comfortably, "Don't worry! I'm not a rookie actor, so I'm measured. By the way, why are you blowing the wind here by yourself? Did you encounter any unhappy things?"

Hao Huan looked into the distance and said, "No, I just worked all day and wanted to be alone and relax my mind."

Huang Hao looked around and said, "Where's Miss Wang? Isn't that guy usually clinging to you like an asshole?"

"Following me is usually required by work, so I have to follow!"

Hao Huan said bad things behind her back: "Now is the rest time, she can't wait to have two legs and get away from me! This woman is too realistic!"

"Forehead……"

Huang Hao spoke for Wang Lexin: "I don't think Miss Wang is this kind of woman! I met her just now and asked where you are. She told me you were on the top deck, which means she still cares about you!"

Hao Huan coughed and said, "That's because she guessed it! Because she knows that I usually like to stay on the top deck to enjoy the breeze!"

"All right……"

After Huang Hao was bored with a glass of red wine, he was not interested in drinking it by himself. He patted Hao Huan on the shoulder and said, "The wind is too strong. I am not like you young people. I have good bones and don't catch cold easily. I'll go down first, don't stay too long, lest you catch a cold and affect your work tomorrow."

Hao Huan hurriedly said: "Okay, you hurry up, don't disturb me thinking about life!"

After Huang Hao left, Hao Huan stayed for more than an hour, and then went down, went inside the cruise ship to eat something, then came out of the shower, and lay down in his room on the cruise ship to call out the system interface.

"Open the director training camp..."

He needs to accumulate experience in filming at sea in advance!
