The final box office of "Bring Her Eyes" exceeded 110 million, climbing to the top of the box office list in Chinese film history.
It only took one week for the box office to reach 110 million from 79 million.
The reason for this is that starting from the third week, movie theaters in cities and towns across the country have been opened, and China Film Group is operating among them. The film schedule of "Bring Her Eyes" is very high, to an absurdly high level.
Some theaters do not show other movies at all, and the film schedule for "Bring Her Eyes" is also very intensive, one after another.
There is a reason why China Film Group did this.
The matter of cooperating with Deep Space Company and introducing foreign blockbusters through film approval was discussed internally by China Film.
There are supporters and opponents.
In addition to internal conflicts, China Film Group is also under external pressure. After all, reform always carries risks.
It has only been two years since they started introducing blockbusters, and now they have developed a new model. If this model does not develop well, China Film will have to face criticism from many parties.
Nowadays, the box office of "Bring Her Eyes" has directly topped the box office of Chinese film history. Both internal conflicts and external pressures of China Film have disappeared instantly.
At this time, everyone will congratulate China Film Group for taking another solid and powerful step on the road of reform.
And their cooperation with the Deep Space Company also got off to a fantastic start.
…
On the day the news came out that "Bring Her Eyes" had broken the box office record, Yuliu received a call from Eric Tsang.
"Mr. Yu, congratulations, your company has made a lot of money this time."
"Thank you. We actually don't make much money. We work for theaters and distribution. Even if the box office is more than 100 million, we only get a small amount in our hands. And Mr. Zeng, you don't know, this film cost only 2
It’s over 100 million. The box office looks like a lot, but it actually doesn’t determine anything.”
Regarding the approval of the film, there is an official announcement, but the specific details of the introduction of "Bring Her Eyes" are not known to others. I say this because I don't want people to get to the bottom of it.
"Mr. Yu is joking, if you can't make money with such a high box office, then no one will make movies in the future." Zeng Zhiwei smiled and said: "Mr. Yu, look at the list I gave you before.
Is it okay? How is it? Is there any hope for us to cooperate?"
I knew that Zeng Zhiwei had called me to ask about this. He smiled and said: "Mr. Zeng, I didn't dare to delay your matter. After I got the list, I went to find the casting director. Unfortunately, it was a step too late.
, the casting director told me that all the characters with lines have been selected, not only the first choice, but also the alternate ones."
There was no such person as a casting director at all, and Yiliang just gave the list to Liu Weiqiang.
"Then this..."
"Mr. Zeng, you don't know how stubborn our casting director is. What he decided cannot be changed in any way, even if I, the boss, say something. Later, I had a serious chat with him and said
It was Mr. Zeng who you recommended, so he finally relented and released two characters."
"Sorry to trouble you, Mr. Yu. After the matter is completed, I will definitely express my sincerity and will not let you down."
In Zeng Zhiwei's view, the reason why Yuliang complained so much about his suffering was actually to take credit and get some benefits from him.
This is good, at least I always have something to ask for, and as long as I have something to ask for, things will be easier to handle.
"Mr. Zeng is being polite, it's all for the good of the movie and the company." Yu Liang said with a smile: "The two characters are very good, both are police officers, and they both have lines."
"How many lines are there?" Zeng Zhiwei asked.
"The two together add up to about a dozen sentences."
After hearing Yu Yi's words, Zeng Zhiwei on the other end of the phone fell silent for a moment. He put out the half-burned cigarette in his hand, then took out a new one and lit it.
Hearing Yu Liang claim credit like that before, he thought Yu Liang had secured some good role for him, but who would have thought that it turned out to be a supporting role.
In fact, what Zeng Zhiwei wants most is naturally the role of Han Chen, played by himself.
The last time he approached Tony Leung, he heard that Tony Leung had mentioned that Liu Weiqiang had been looking for him to play Han Chen, but due to some reasons it was not possible.
This incident planted a nail in his heart, so he later called Liu Weiqiang, just to get this character back and remove the nail in his heart.
Of course, if Shenkong doesn't give him Han Chen and gives him a few other good roles, he doesn't have to give up Han Chen.
But now, Shen Kong doesn't want to give him Han Chen, nor does it want to give him other roles.
This is a bit too deceptive.
After lighting up the newly lit cigarette and taking a deep puff, Zeng Zhiwei smiled and said: "Mr. Yu, are you kidding me? The people I recommend to you are not newcomers. They have very rich experience.
I can only play a role with a few lines."
"Mr. Zeng, although these two characters don't have many lines, "Infernal Affairs" is a group drama. There is no absolute protagonist, and the characters don't have many lines. It is very difficult to have a few lines. And I
I also explained to you that the casting director has already decided on the actors, and I spent a lot of money to get two of them."
Of course, Zeng Zhiwei didn't believe Yuliang's rhetoric. Seeing that Yuliang was still fooling him, his attitude changed and he said in a deep voice: "Mr. Yu, the mountains and rivers don't change. The Xiangjiang River is only so big. Everyone can't see you when you look down.
There is no need to make yourself unhappy because of one or two characters. I told you last time that Chao Wei is not feeling well and may not be able to film your scene."
Being threatened by Zeng Zhiwei again, the remaining good temper was used up.
He, the dignified head of Deep Space China, was actually threatened by an actor, which made him feel angry and ridiculous. What kind of environment in Hong Kong can make these actors so inflated? Yes, Zeng Zhiwei's father has some
Power, but now it has returned. In Yuliang's opinion, not only should Zeng Zhiwei not be arrogant now, but he should act in a low-key manner.
"Mr. Zeng, the company is very busy recently, and I can't spend too much time on two roles in a certain movie. I will keep these two roles for you for three months. If you don't want them by then,
We will make arrangements ourselves." After saying this, Yuliang smiled and said: "Mr. Zeng, the world outside is very big. Sometimes when you open the window, you can see many different things."
After saying that, Yiliang hung up the phone.
Zeng Zhiwei heard the blind tone on the phone and dialed back, but this time the call was transferred to Secretary Yu Liang.
Chapter completed!
