Chapter 1143: Schedule
To be honest, Sun Peng was not too interested in the premiere of "Avenger".
It's not that he dislikes the low cost of this action movie, or that he knows that the box office of this movie will not be too high, so he doesn't want to go to the premiere, but he is about to go out to inspect the location, and he doesn't have that time. In particular, the locations are basically in the fields or mountains with inconvenient transportation, and if you want to rush back to the capital to attend the premiere, it will be too time-consuming and tiring.
So just after a little hesitation, Sun Peng politely declined Song Qun's invitation.
However, in order to appease the disappointed Song Qun and the others, Sun Peng also simply told him that he would post a few more messages on Weibo to promote "The Avenger". In addition, at the launch conference of "Hero" in the near future, I will also try my best to Amway......
……
In fact, Sun Peng really underestimated the movie "Avenger".
If you look at the movie itself alone, it is really difficult for this ordinary action movie to get too high a box office in this era, even on the planet, its most attractive thing is just the starring Denzel? Washington only. After all, the production cost and other casts make it difficult for ordinary audiences to arouse interest in entering the cinema.
Therefore, the "Avenger" of this world seems to be exactly the same as on the earth.
Although Xue Ligang's fame is far less than that of black actors, because of the two hurricane rescues, this guy's fame is not small, and Liao Jingjing, who has made a stunning appearance in movies such as "Kill Bill", seems to be in the same situation compared with the super killer.
Of course, none of that matters.
The important thing is that Sun Peng only took into account that the new version is similar to the old version, and even the final effect seems to be comparable, but he didn't take into account at all that the script author of this world has changed someone!
Lao Bai, or laobai!
Especially after last year's "Lao Bai's Summer Vacation" or "Laobai's Summer Vacation", the movies with his name have long been labeled as high-quality products by countless people. Therefore, even if it is a pure Japanese literary film like "The Undertaker", the discussion is still an unlikable funeral topic, which can win more than 400 million box office in China, and after winning the Oscar, the box office in Japan has exceeded 8 billion yen, and it is still released in a small number of theaters.
Therefore, although the investment in "Avenger" is not large, and the lineup is not the top, it has attracted a lot of attention.
Not only Lao Bai's fans have long been looking forward to this film, including fans who like Xue Ligang and Liao Jingjing, they have also been looking forward to it for a long time, and even in Lao Bai's opening review of Ye Zhiqiu's opening - "The Most Anticipated Twenty Movies", "Avenger" even ranked fifteenth, and the reason is as simple as two words: Lao Bai!
At least in March, it was one of the most anticipated films, without it.
The plot of "Avenger" is not too complicated, and there are no special effects shots to do, so Song Qun and Han Mingsen started filming in July, finished in September, and made a finished film in December. At Lao Bai's suggestion, the distributor also brought forward the release date of mid-April to late March.
The competitors in late March were quite average.
Even until April 10th, although there are more than a dozen movies to be released in the more than 20 days, except for a Hollywood movie and a Chinese action movie that are slightly threatening, nothing seems to have an impact on the box office of "Avenger".
So after posting a Weibo, Sun Peng set off to inspect the location in a down-to-earth manner.
However, not long after he posted a Weibo promoting "Avenger", in a hotel luxury suite in the magic capital, an extremely strong middle-aged man smashed his cup in anger!
"Bastard!"
After reading Sun Peng's Weibo, the only two words that Mao Xu uttered were of course not very good.
And long before showing him this Weibo, Li Zhuyun had already guessed this result, so he said calmly: "In fact, the schedule adjustment of "Avenger" has long been a foregone conclusion, but Lao Bai has never mentioned it personally...... Mao Xu, it's not worth being so angry. ”
As the director of "Dark Dead 3", Li Zhuyun is actually quite painful.
In fact, in recent years, with the new action movies made in Huaxia...... Or the rise of those action movies led by Lao Bai, traditional action actors and directors have been greatly impacted. After all, compared to "Dragon Gate Inn", their action design is like children fighting; And compared to the unique and strong style of "Kill Bill" and "League of Assassins", traditional action movies are like rough guys in the countryside beating each other! Not to mention the "Hurricane Rescue" series and the "Bourne's Identity" series, especially the release of "True Lies", which directly made other Chinese action movies synonymous with "small fights"!
In a word, Huaxia's action movies are difficult to mix.
And an action star like Mao Xu, who has been fighting the world with his muscles before, and an action movie director like Li Zhuyun who has a fixed shooting style for a long time, the situation in the past few years can be described by an idiom, that is, the river is going down!
The entertainment industry is a vanity fair, as long as you are lucky, it is not difficult to become famous, but it is easier to fall from the altar!
After several box office failures in a row, the decline of Mao Xu's coffee position may not be so easy to be noticed by ordinary people, but how shrewd are the bosses in the circle? Soon there will be fewer people willing to invite him to star in big productions, and Mao Xu's salary has also dropped again and again, from 50 or 60 million all the way to 10 or 20 million now, which is a bit too mild to describe it as a halving.
Director Li Zhuyun's situation is basically a sympathy.
So when the IP of "Dead in the Night" was restarted and ready to shoot the third part, both Mao Xu and Li Zhuyun regarded this film as their greatest hope for turning over!
It took half a year to prepare.
Although there was a small episode like Mo Kai in the middle, and the original villain was poached by Wei Xiaolin's "Terminator", except for the anger at the time, it did not affect the post-filming and publicity of "Dark Dead 3". And in order to be able to successfully turn over this time...... Or in other words, in order to be able to keep up with the pace of the times, the filming and production cycle of "Dead by Night 3" this time is unprecedentedly long!
Because they have to learn the essence of those movies while filming and producing.
So when "Dark Dead 3" was ready, "Terminator", which started filming almost at the same time, had already been released for a year. And for the sake of this expected turnaround, the two also carefully selected the release schedule, and the distributor also agreed.
At the end of March, the blockbusters that happened to be in the New Year file were exhausted, and they were a little farther away from several big productions at the end of April and early May, as long as "Dead by Night 3" did not perform badly, the box office should be better?
However......
"Damn, he must have done it on purpose!"
ignored Li Zhuyun's persuasion at all, and Mao Xuhongtong's eyes only had two words Lao Bai in his eyes at this time: "The premise of the schedule of "The Avenger" is definitely deliberate by that bastard, and it is 100% ......"
