Chapter 948: Fame and Fortune

In August, "Prison" began to be released in Xiangjiang.

At this time, in many places in Europe and the United States, it is almost already painted.

If you want to talk about "Prison and Prison", it really won glory for the people of Xiangjiang.

It did not use special effects, and second, it did not use foreign actors, but it sold a total of more than 15 million US dollars in Europe and the United States, which is definitely the first in the history of feature films.

You must know that the total cost of "Prison Storm" is only 7 million Hong Kong dollars.

At once, he earned 75 million Hong Kong dollars from Europe and the United States, which is ten times the cost, and he will make crazy money!

That's the power of the Cannes Film Festival's Best Feature Film.

Even in Asia, I don't know how many fans are looking forward to the release of "Prison" as soon as possible.

However, the crew first talked about the copyright in Europe and delayed it for half a month, and then when they came back, they encountered two blockbusters in a row, "." and "Speed of Life and Death", mixed with excellent commercial blockbusters such as "Mr. Zombie", which is of course not suitable for them to be released.

Therefore, on the Friday of August 1st, "Prison" held a simultaneous premiere in his hometown of Xiangjiang.

In Asia, the Palme d'Or for Best Feature Film at the Cannes Film Festival is certainly still good, but that's not the only reason fans are looking forward to it.

Yin Jun's screenwriting is one thing.

Xu Wenqiang's movie is another aspect.

The movie starring Zhang Guorong, the most popular and handsome in Asia, is another aspect.

With the blessing of so many advantages, even fans who don't like the word "prison" plan to buy tickets to go in and have a look.

Lin Lingdong is very bold, how to play the version at the Cannes Film Festival, he didn't edit it at all, and went back to Asia to screen it directly.

In fact, Asians tend to be gentle, and they like movies with more positive energy, so they are not as heavy as the tastes of European audiences.

In the story of "Prison, Prison", although Yin Jun finally added a little seedling of hope in the dark, the overall style is still very depressing, a little breathless.

The people in the distribution department once reported to Yu Zheng about this problem.

Yu Zheng means to do it according to Lin Lingdong's preparation, the director has such a strong emotional expression for this play, don't destroy it.

Then Yu Zheng also asked Yin Jun's opinion.

Yin Jun didn't have anything else to say.

"Sister Zheng, you are the general manager of Kirin Films, you can decide these things yourself. If you have to express an attitude, then I think the same as you, the movie needs to let more audiences see something different, instead of blindly. It's very good that Tungko is doing this, and I'm very supportive. ”

With Yin Jun's endorsement, Yu Zheng also suppressed all opposition voices, and tried his best to overcome public opinion, and "Prison Storm" was released in such an original way.

As a result, the box office reached 1.7 million Hong Kong dollars on the first day on Friday, and continued to rise on Saturday, breaking the barrier of 2 million Hong Kong dollars, reaching 2.1 million, and 1.9 million on Sunday, and 5.7 million Hong Kong dollars in the first three days of the weekend.

But under such a high box office, word-of-mouth has also shown polarization.

Many people are fooled, thinking that Jun Shao has changed now, and after "Kiss of Evil", there is still such an abusive movie, which makes people feel very uncomfortable and uncomfortable.

But there are also many people who sigh after watching it, this is the real prison, and the prison is also a society that is more unbound by rules, and Junshao's experience of human nature and his grasp of the dark side of society have been greatly improved compared with before.

However, at least more than half of the people said that such movies are indeed flavorful and meaningful, but it is enough for us to watch a few such movies a year, we still like "Red Fan Zone", like movies like "Life and Death", and it is good to watch one every month.

Yin Jun knew that this was the result.

Not to mention "Prison and Prison", the upgraded version of "Prison and Prison" "The Shawshank Redemption", that is, the story that Yin Jun bought the copyright in this life, is definitely not enough to watch in theaters, and it is simply a role in soy sauce.

This represents the tastes of the average moviegoer, as well as their preferences.

Wait a minute.

Why is "The Shawshank Redemption" the nemesis "Forrest Gump" so strong?

The box office, word-of-mouth, and awards all crushed "The Shawshank Redemption", that is, more than ten years later, a group of young people who had nothing to do did brought "The Shawshank Redemption" to the altar in the name of "the saddest excellent movie".

Because it's very simple, "Forrest Gump" reflects the real life and perception of the "Beat Generation" in the 60-70s in the United States, and then coupled with Tom Hanks's excellent performance, it suddenly sublimated from sadness to the meaning of life struggle and life, so sunny, why not let a group of people who were young in the 60-70s and mature in the 90s like it?

The Shawshank Redemption...... Please, how many normal people go to stay in prison and meet such a murderous warden?

Stories are stories, not life!

So when it faced "Forrest Gump", it was scolded very miserably.

What makes "Prison Storm" more ingenious than "The Shawshank Redemption" is that it first won the Palme d'Or, and then critics touted it and the newspapers publicized it, making it so famous that even if you don't like it, you are embarrassed to say that it is not good.

This kind of good reputation in Europe and the United States, back to the base camp in Asia, it is even more impressive.

Regardless of whether you are a fan of this kind of movie or not, it is a crime if you don't watch it anyway, and if you don't watch it, you will be outdated, and if you don't watch it, you will be sorry for the art of film.

And in the same way, if you simply say that it is not good-looking after watching it, and you can't explain why, it is also a manifestation of vulgarity and vulgarity.

That's it, the negative evaluation of the audience in Xiangjiang is not very high.

As for Japan, South Korea and Treasure Island, which prefer to watch literary films, it is really explosive, and many people watch it once and watch it a second time, trying to figure out what the screenwriter and director want to express.

Zhou Yanfa, who had already returned to Xiangjiang and was working hard to shoot "The Big Dipper", was so smiling that the folds on his face were about to come out when he met a reporter who came to interview.

"Yes, the shooting was very hard, Ah Dong actually asked me to jump into the sewer cesspool, I just thought that I would beat him up. ”

"I think my play is one thing, but the most important thing is that Junshao is a good screenwriter, and Ah Dong directs very carefully, which helps me understand the film better. ”

I thought he would be very pampered and a little cynical, but he was even more serious than me in filming, saying that he would shave his head, and he didn't care about his peerless beauty at all. ”

"Can I win the Academy Award for Best Actor? Haha, that depends on how the judges judge! Of course, I'm looking forward to it. ”

"What kind of movie are you going to make next year? The company hasn't made any plans yet, but I want to change the genre. …… In fact, to tell you, Junshao was interested in asking me to play "Speed of Life and Death", but I was too fat, so I was kicked down......"

“……”

Zhou Yunfa is a person who is in good spirits at happy events, and he is much more relaxed when he speaks.

The genre of "Prison" is good, it reflects social reality, and it has the blessing of the Palme d'Or, and the biggest winner of next year's Academy Awards is probably it.

At the first Academy Awards for Best Actor this year, he unfortunately lost to Huang Yuanshen, which made Zhou Yunfa feel very uncomfortable.

Zhou Yanfa has a more open-minded personality, but he can't forget that when he was filming in Qiongkou, Huang Yuanshen came to visit Zhao Yazhi, which caused the dissatisfaction of Dr. Huang, who also came to see his wife, and the two fought, and as a result, he was also involved.

Although it was just a misunderstanding, but you caused it, how could I not care at all.

At the second Academy Awards next year, as long as the judges are not blind, the honor of the actor is mine.

Well......

By the way, do you want to ask her to mention a few words to Jun Shao next time Ah Hong comes to the house?

What southeast and northwest winds are not as strong as pillow winds!

If Jun Shao is willing to say a word, it will be absolutely certain.

……

Seeing Zhou Yunfa talking and laughing in the reporter group, and the two future actors who were also resting, they were envious.

"Wei Zai, when do you think we can have such a scenery like Ah Fa?" Ren Dahua asked the young man beside him.

"I think if the opportunity comes, it will be successful. Liang Chaowei retracted his eyes, "Now, we still work hard to shoot this drama well, which is the first step to success!"

"I forgot, you're quite famous now. Ren Dahua even envied Liang Chaowei, thinking that he was in his twenties, but even this 19-year-old young man became more popular than himself, which was really a little depressing.

"Aren't you still bad?" Liang Chaowei shrugged, "How much aura does the playboy role in "Police and Detective School" bring you? Didn't Director Wang Jing come to you two days ago? It seems that the second part should be filmed, right? It will be released worldwide again! I haven't acted in this movie!"

Speaking of this, a smile appeared on Ren Dahua's dark face.

After moving to the side of Qilin Culture, his star fortune began to change a little, but compared to his classmate Zhou Yanfa in the artist training class, it was still too far behind.

But isn't it a good thing to get off to a good start?

As long as you work harder and let Jun Shao see more, you will definitely give yourself a chance!

As Liang Chaowei said, it is better to work hard to finish filming "The Big Dipper", Jun Shao appointed himself to play the villain, if he plays well, will he still worry about playing the role in the future?

How happy it should be to be able to move forward step by step, like Ah Fa, and then enter the big screen and become an actor!
