You don't understand the happiness of the director

Chapter 637 ① Trailer first release ② Old Wang is furious ③ Poetry and honey fight ④ Zhao Lichun ⑤ The fun of stealing

Any domestic blockbuster usually has to seize the big time slot. These are all experiences, no need to say more.

Most fans understand that "Xiao Yao You" will not be able to catch up with this year's summer schedule, so they all hope that it can go to next year's Spring Festival schedule.

But Wang Quan just said that the movie will be released this year, so everyone assumes that it will be the Lunar New Year schedule in December.

So many people who originally wanted to go to the Lunar New Year schedule tacitly chose the National Day schedule, such as Huayi's "Youth" and Guangguang's "Sorrowful Grocery Store".

But who would have thought that Wang Quan would actually set it on November 10th, and he would enter the Singles' Day schedule!

This choice gives people a feeling that he is not aiming at the box office. Of course, more people interpret it as Wang Quan's confidence.

"I can kill you insects hiding in the big schedules in seconds by choosing any day to release the film!"

And there are also a large number of movie fans who are happy to see "Happy Journey" so soon, a month earlier is a month earlier.

There are also many people in the industry who believe that choosing this schedule is actually a concession for the simultaneous release of the film around the world.

In the interview, Wang Quan revealed that November 10th will not only be released in China, but also globally, and will be released simultaneously in North America, Japan, South Korea and other countries and regions, which is also the largest scale of simultaneous release of Chinese-language films around the world.

At that time, many companies such as Wangdao, Longtou, Golden Harvest, NEW Company, Longtou Tokyo, Longtou Europe, etc. will work together.

And November is a cold schedule all over the world, so it can avoid direct battles with those Hollywood blockbusters, which is conducive to harvesting global box office.

However, it was soon revealed by self-media that November will not only have the star-studded "Justice League", but also Marvel's "Thor 3", so this November is really not cold at all.

Ouyang Zhanguang: Damn, is November so strong? Now we have something interesting to watch.

Shao Nian Runtu: "Justice League", then can we see Gadot?

Shepherd Shao Minhan: I see, Director Quan is going to force "Justice League", what's going on, did he have a falling out with Gadot?

Tu Yimianhuashui: They broke up a long time ago, how could they have a falling out?

Wanlang Xiao Maju: What do you know? Director Quan has stayed at Gadot's place every time he went to Los Angeles in recent years. Do you think they sleep in one bed or two beds? Da Mimi's divorce from him may also have this reason.

Qingfeng Wushi Random Book: Then why did they have a falling out? Oh, I see, it must be Gadot who wants to get back together, but Director Quan doesn't agree.

Yushouweihei but said that the weather is cool and a good autumn: If we can get back together, I hope it's with Sissi.

Zhenliu: You all guessed wrong. The competition between "Happy Journey" and "Justice League" shows that Director Quan still has evil intentions towards Gadot. He is showing off his strength to his ex-girlfriend. I, King David, can beat all of you superheroes by myself. Isn't that awesome! Worship me, woman!

Alien Merchant: Haha, you are treating Jiang Wen and Fan Wei as if they don't exist, and Wang Quan is alone~

Zhenliu: In North America, and even other overseas markets, they are almost non-existent. The biggest selling point of this movie is that Director Quan returns to big-budget commercial films after three years.

Fu Zhou Dadi @Zhenliu: That makes sense, but with three super blockbusters gathered in the November schedule, I am still more optimistic about Director Zack Snyder's "Justice League".

Shanggu Shushi: That's right, the garbage like "Avengers" can make more than 10 billion worldwide, and I am optimistic that "Justice League" will hit 2 billion worldwide!

Decameron: What's 2 billion, Japanese yen?

Afterwards, Stock God 007: Outrageous, of course it's US dollars, that's Director Zack Snyder!

Movie fans have high expectations for "Justice League", but Warner Bros. itself doesn't think so. The film is now being reshot by Joss Whedon, and the final quality is still uncertain.

They are not worried about North America, as it is not yet the turn of a Chinese-language film to be unbridled, but if the overseas market encounters Wang Quan's "Escape", it will not be a good thing.

Fortunately, they only announced that the North American release date of "Justice League" is November 17, one week later than "Escape". They feel it is necessary to postpone the release date of the overseas market as far as possible from "Escape", especially the three markets of China, Japan and South Korea, which are the ruling areas of King David.

The new Marvel work "Thor 3", which has lower popularity, cast and cost than "Justice League", also thinks so.

Their North American release date is November 3, one week earlier than "Escape".

But it was decided that the overseas market would be set at the end of October, so that there would be a two-week interval with "Escape" to minimize the impact on the box office.

Last time, Wang Quan's commercial film "Leng Feng" won 807 million global box office, ranking among the top ten of the year. This time, the production scale has been fully upgraded.

After watching the first trailer of "Xiao Yao You", even giants like Warner and Disney dare not underestimate it. If you take a step back, the world will be vast. There is no need to fight to the death.

At the beginning of this interview program, Wang Quan announced the global release schedule of "Xiao Yao You". At the end of the program, a 30-second trailer of "Xiao Yao You" was also played.

These 30 seconds are almost a personal show of the male protagonist Jiang Wen, from his young age to Beijing to take the exam, to being forced to go to sea, several encounters, and elements such as sea monsters, strange ships, and aliens.

There are very few scenes of other people, and the temperament of the male protagonist is fully exposed.

In addition to Jiang Wen, the core male protagonist, there is also the ubiquitous embodiment of oriental aesthetics. Every frame is full of the taste of art and money. Compared with the current assembly line superhero movies, it is refreshing and very refreshing.

Especially the last shot, the picture of Jiang Wen standing on the bow facing the rising red sun, seems to be quite meaningful.

The East is Red, the Sun is Rising...

Not only did the interview receive a high number of clicks on Netflix, but the movie trailer also landed on YouTube at the same time, with over 50 million clicks in 24 hours, making it into the top 20 in the history of the relevant list.

Although it is not as good as those superhero blockbusters and live-action princess movies, for Wang Quan personally, it is second only to his own "The Force Awakens", and is the strongest performance of Chinese-language films. Including Netflix, more than 100 million people watched this trailer in one day.

It can be seen that the global audience is looking forward to this film. Of course, it is also related to the inclination of YouTube's traffic. Although Wang Quan no longer holds shares in YouTube, some of the original founders have stayed, and the incense is still there.

In China, this trailer has swept multiple platforms such as Douyin, Kuaishou, Weibo, and Toutiao.

On Bilibili, many up masters can get hundreds of thousands of likes just by posting the video intact.

If you can add some of your own analysis and extend the half-minute trailer to several minutes, the highest one has received 3 million likes in a short period of time.

Domestic netizens also analyzed this trailer frame by frame, and the release in the cold November period did not affect their enthusiasm for this film.

Merchants from Another World: Although it is only 30 seconds, the movie reveals the tip of the iceberg, but the picture is really bright and special. It gives me a feeling that the photographer of this film is Zhang Yimou.

Price_chang: The director of photography seems to be Gao Hu.

Shanggu Shushi: Damn, is it the Gao Hu I thought of? Has he moved behind the scenes?

Zhenliu: Not that Gao Hu, but the photographer Gao Hu, who has many representative works, "Dragon Gate Flying Daggers", "Journey to the West: Conquering the Demons", "One Step Away" and "Taking Tiger Mountain by Strategy".

Qianqian Qianzhu: Oh my god, he is indeed a big shot, but the style of "Happy Journey" doesn't seem to match these.

Hong Feima: I heard that there is more than one photographer, there is also Xie Zhengyu from "The Warlords".

Super Love Reading: What are you talking about photography? Why is there no Liu Yifei in this trailer?

A Luo Hua Yi Yi: I saw a very thin and slender girl from behind. I wonder if it is Liu Yifei.

Fatty: Stop it. Liu Yifei is not that thin now.

Tian Nan Shi Ba: That should be the heroine selected from the audition. She looks a bit like the Internet celebrity named Sun Yining.

aaa0lu: The scene of those big ships going to the sea is so spectacular. Isn’t this movie similar to "Pirates of the Caribbean"?

Butterfly Desire: Jiang Wen is not a bandit this time, but a pirate king?

Ouyang Zhan Guang: We should know what it is about soon. Director Quan revealed in an interview that for this movie, he specially asked someone to write a novel based on the plot, and also asked a cartoonist to turn it into a comic. These will be sold before the movie is released.

Shao Nian Run Tu: Ah, isn’t that a spoiler?

Shepherd Shao Minhan: No, no, no, it's just a novel and comic based on the world view of the story of "Xiao Yao You". The protagonist is not necessarily Jiang Wen.

Tu Yi Lian Hua Shui: I see, it's actually to help foreign audiences lower the threshold of watching movies and understand the background of the story in advance.

Lang Lang Xiao Ma Ju: Yes, yes, yes, "Ghost Blows Out the Light" did this before. I heard that "Three Body" is also developing an overseas comic version in addition to the English version of the novel. It is estimated that Wang Dao will shoot a movie version of "Three Body" later.

Qing Feng Wu Shi Ran Fan Shu: Damn, this is a big deal. I hope Director Quan will shoot it himself.

Yu Shu Hei said that the weather is cool and good for autumn: Director Quan can shoot the later ones, but I think Lao Mouzi is more suitable for the first one. He is more suitable for shooting buzz buzz buzz at his age.

Netizens have deviated from "Xiao Yao You" to "Three Body", but the discussion is really high. Previously, there were movies in the December New Year's Day file that escaped to avoid "Xiao Yao You", and now there are movies in November that are ready to change the schedule.

By then, the cinema will have "Xiaoyaoyou" and other movies will become just a compromise. Who would be willing to compromise for a movie that costs only a few dozen yuan?

When Wang Quan rushed to the set, Chen Duling, who had already put on makeup, was watching the 30-second trailer of "Xiaoyaoyou". She had watched it more than a dozen times.

Although she only appeared once as a back figure, the trailer was so good that she couldn't imagine how good the finished film would be. It was really worth it to be able to participate in such a movie and have a relationship with the director.

As she was watching, a pair of hands hugged her from behind. She was about to scream when she saw Wang Quan in the mirror.

"Director, you are back!"

Wang Quan gently bit her ear, not daring to touch her lips for fear of ruining her makeup.

The two of them stayed together for a while, and the shooting began.

At this time, Xue Fu also brought Anya to the set and started to put on makeup for her.

It would take at least four or five hours to get her look done, and it would be afternoon by then.

In Lao Wang's courtyard, after his grandson Wang Teng woke up, he took his eldest grandson and the dog to the company. Today, he had to internally review a company drama.

He didn't need to personally inquire about general dramas, but this drama was co-produced with the Supreme People's Procuratorate and the Golden Shield Film and Television Center. It was the company's top priority this year and a great gift to Xigua Film and Television.

This will be the first new drama that LeTV will broadcast exclusively after changing its name to Xigua Film and Television. With the endorsement of the two partners, they can explore new margins in terms of scale.

Before LeTV changed its name, it had already co-produced a new drama "Chicken Feathers Flying to the Sky" with Youku last week, and the response was also good.

But since Youku has this show, netizens are less likely to come to LeTV to watch it, so we still have to broadcast it exclusively. Even if the cost is higher, we have to increase the membership scale of Xigua Video.

As he watched, Lao Wang suddenly discovered that Huang Mao had a lot of scenes with his girlfriend.

Lao Wang knew in his heart that the more useless a trash character he looked like, the more he would play an unimaginable role at the last minute.

So even though Huang Mao looked disgusting and his girlfriend was slutty and slutty, Lao Wang still looked forward to seeing her.

However, a few days later, Lao Wang, who had watched the entire drama, was dumbfounded, "This yellow hair has no use in the end. It is of no use at all!"

Director Li Lu said awkwardly: "This is the assistant director of our crew."

After hearing this, Lao Wang became furious: "What a fucking idiot! I gave you money to let you guys film a movie, but in the end, I asked the assistant director to add me to the movie, and he almost became the leading actor! In the end, he said, "He is the assistant director." director!"

Producer Li Xuezheng hurriedly came to persuade Lao Wang, but Wang Qiankun even scolded him: "Do you know the gold content of this drama, do you know how important this drama is to Qiankun, but you still mess around like this? You are not a good person." Thing! I’m so blind that I trust you so much!”

If there weren't a lot of things going on in the film division, Lao Wang wouldn't be so lax in his supervision.

Fortunately, I reviewed the film one last time and discovered such a big problem.

"So he called the editor over and re-edited the film to remove the annoying yellow hair and his girlfriend."

Of course, it’s not a complete cut. They are still useful in promoting the plot in the front, but they are just stealing the scene in the back, which is useless and not even a gag.

The last 52 episodes were cut to episode 50.

Although the loss of these two episodes is almost a loss of millions in income, Lao Wang has invested 100 million in costs, so he still cares about this?

Take a look at the cast you hired. Not to mention the younger generation Luo Jin (Hou Liangping), Gao Yuanyuan (Zhong Xiaoai), and Ni Ni (Lu Yike), the older generation Zhang Fengyi, Wu Gang, Zhang Zhijian, Xu Yajun, Ding Haifeng, Li Jianyi, Hou Tianlai, and Hou Yong are all acting talents gathered from the arts and Chinese. Never before has a film brought together so many outstanding actors at the same time.

Even the hotel manager who only has a few scenes is looking for a handsome man in ancient costume like Shen Xiaohai who has been famous before.

With this lineup and this story, Lao Wang believes that the value of word-of-mouth is definitely more than the few million.

And while Lao Wang was reviewing the film day and night, Wang Quan ended the first day of filming after returning to China.

When he got the phone, he saw Liu Shishi's message and asked him if he would go to his place at night.

Wang Quan declined politely. Anya and Dudu could ignore it for the time being, but it wouldn't make sense for them to return home without replying. Tonight must belong to Xianmi.

Liu Shishi also expressed his understanding, "Although you are divorced, you are the father of the child after all."

When Wang Quan rushed home, she opened the door and saw Master Liu holding Xiao Xianmi and smiling subtly at her. As she expected, she saw Wang Quan in Mimi's place.

Liu Shishi said calmly: "Mimi came to talk to me about work. I was only free in the evening, so I came to our house to talk. Hello, ex-husband."

Wang Quan glanced at her and saw that Sissi was not there, okay, okay.

Wang Quan took his daughter from his master's arms and said, "Then you can chat."

Yang Mi asked Wang Quan to stay: "You should also listen to what we are talking about about LeTV. I want LeTV to change its name tomorrow and then resume the market."

"Are you in such a hurry?"

"Are you not in a hurry? After the promotion, LeTV's paid membership continued to decline. From the peak of more than 10 million to less than 3 million this month, most of them are annual members. Yes, when the one-year period comes, there will only be less, maybe not even one million.”

You must know that the original "Princess" brought nearly 3 million VIP members to LeTV. Now LeTV is simply pitiful.

"When users are lost, they all go to other platforms. Once people buy VIP for a year on other platforms, it will be difficult to get them back. Although they are not ready yet, and there are no new movies exclusively broadcast within a week, But at least with the endorsement of Wangdao Qiankun Mishi, LeTV will be able to revitalize itself, and the subsequent competition will be easier!"

"Okay, I can respond to you on Weibo then, and you don't have to worry too much. When "In the Name of the People" is exclusively broadcast on Xigua Video, I believe users will come back, unless they can tolerate the current TV ”

"Oh, are you confident about this show?"

Wang Quan: "I have read the script. For Chinese people who like to talk nonsense about state affairs, this drama is simply too enjoyable. It is of unprecedented scale."

It's bigger than the original show. At least Zhao Lichun is no longer a name and background. Lao Wang specially invited Bao Guoan to guest star in this role.

After confirming the matter of LeTV, Yang Mi began to chat with Liu Shishi about their affairs. Now the new website is in urgent need of TV series, and she can't wait to sign more film contracts with Liu Shishi.

However, Liu Shishi only signed one film. Now her mind is not on filming. She has already made enough money.

Although her acting career cannot keep up with Xianmi's, her endorsement income is still very good. The little lions have strong spending power, and major advertisers like her very much.

After Liu Shishi and Yang Mi finished chatting about "Queen of Fuyao", she stood up to leave. Yang Mi had just finished taking a bath and was still wearing a bathrobe. She told Wang Quan: "Please help me see Shishi off."

Wang Quan had been waiting for this sentence for a long time, "Okay, I will help you loosen her."

Liu Shishi's ears turned red. She walked awkwardly today. She was such a bad person.

The car was parked outside the yard. Liu Shishi felt that she had left Yang Mi's perspective, and then she secretly pulled Wang Quan's hand.

Wang Quan patted her hips lightly.

In the villa next door, Liu Yifei on the third floor got dressed and prepared to come to Yang Mi's place. She happened to look at the next door through the window, and then saw the interaction between Wang Quan and Liu Shishi.

Then Wang Quan got into Liu Shishi's car...
