Chapter 779: 85 Flowers in a DilemmaChen An didn't necessarily want Zeng Li to participate in the show, but of course he had to host the show.
We have to get some while we are still in the honeymoon period with the penguins.
The other party will also take the short video route in the future, so we will have to confront it head-on.
"Blade Identity 2: Shura Battlefield" has come to an end, with a final box office of million!
It was not a standout in this Lunar New Year box office, nor did it take the top spot.
Although "The Great Wall" and "The Ferryman" did not receive good reviews, the latter also did not perform well at the box office.
But at least the former is famous and its box office has exceeded 1 billion.
It's just that the film has basically lost a lot of money, and there is still a chance to make it back, that is, it hasn't been released in the North American market yet, but that's all.
Chen An didn't believe that 50 million US dollars could be revealed.
But compared to the previous life, "Assassin's Blade 2" has indeed achieved good results.
The lack of actors to hold back the performance, the right schedule, and the two disappointing competitors are all indispensable for the current success.
The so-called black and red is also red, but that is only limited to TV dramas.
Why has the big screen always been superior to the small screen?
As for making money, it’s hard to say.
In terms of commercial value alone, the big screen is everything.
If you can't carry the box office, it's just that you're not good enough. It's a simple matter.
The click data of variety shows, TV dramas, etc. don’t work.
The only real thing is the movie box office and how many people are willing to spend a few dozen dollars to go to the cinema to see you.
It doesn’t cost money to watch a variety show or TV series. At most, you can get a membership that can be used for a long time and you can also borrow it.
Watching a movie is a real expense, and iMax tickets are much more expensive than regular tickets.
The commercial value limit that variety shows and TV dramas can achieve must be broken through by box office.
And this is the biggest problem that the 85 flowers are facing now.
Why are Sidan Shuangxue always regarded as the pillars of today's domestic first-line actresses? Because of their success on the big screen!
You brag a lot on your Weibo about being the great poet of the Tang Dynasty, but it's useless.
The press release was distributed all over the street, but no one bought it.
In the past year, Wu Qianer produced several movies, which had first-day box office of tens of millions and total box office of less than 100 million.
Has been kicked out.
But now, several top stars among the 85 flowers are all unlucky, even though it is still a booming period for film and television.
It’s okay if we can’t carry the box office, we can still fight.
When the cold winter of film and television came, the situation became more and more awkward, and young actresses born in the 90s and 95s gradually rose.
They started to be successful at the box office one after another, and they were cheaper than these ones.
This year's Spring Festival comes faster.
January 1th is New Year’s Eve.
After Weibo Night, there is another big news.
All major platforms have preparations for New Year's Eve, but it's because the Spring Festival Gala is not good enough, otherwise they wouldn't have had the chance to do anything.
Almost no one watches this stuff, and the only people who watch it are probably the media and marketing accounts.
Just posting it to attract attention.
During the Chinese New Year, a maid was kept to help, and they were asked to rummage around and make adjustments, changing the maid every year.
"Are you going to the movies this year?"
"No, it's meaningless."
Chen An shook his head and refused, feeling that there was nothing interesting to see.
Only "The Mermaid" is pretty good, but it's a pity that the publicity was a bit poor, otherwise it feels like it would be able to outperform all the other movies in this year's Spring Festival.
The Spring Festival period has gradually become the strongest period, and even a work like "Journey to the West: Conquering the Demons " can earn million yuan at the box office.
The Journey to the West-themed film "The Monkey King 16" that made the audience sick and the "Kung Fu Yoga" that Fang Long couldn't bear to watch both earned 17- billion yuan at the box office.
So the platform is very important.
Sometimes to get high box office, it really depends on the release date. The bigger the table, the more you can win.
The Spring Festival period has performed well every year, and the cinemas have also reaped a lot of benefits. If you want to release a film during the Spring Festival period, you must first pay 100 million yuan in distribution and scheduling fees. If you don’t have confidence, you dare not release it.
The three little guys squatted in front of the TV, playing games with controllers.
Yu Jinghong was wrapping dumplings, her hands were covered in flour, she wiped the sweat off her wrists, "By the way, what's this variety show you were talking about?"
"That's all. Let a bunch of out-of-date female stars come on stage to have some fun. I guess the audience will like it."
“Will there be any ratings?”
She was a little bit unconvinced. What was so good about it?
Chen An did not answer. At first he felt that there was nothing interesting to watch, but then he found it very interesting to watch a group of female stars fighting with each other.
Lu Xiaobu is indeed the master, having discovered this fun very early on.
"I feel like both of you are still very popular. Although you've been away from the screen for a while, you still have some classic works, and netizens are nostalgic and like to reminisce."
Chen Anran looked at the two of them thoughtfully.
"My Sassy Girl" and "Little Forest", let's not talk about anything else, just these two.
With the passage of time and the current market situation, it has risen to the level of a classic.
Most movies are the same. They become more attractive after the test of time.
Let time prove it: Look, it will take many years to make a movie like mine, right?
Zeng Li was a little proud, and countless netizens on Weibo and Tik Tok were calling for her to make a comeback.
At that time, she was the flower in Chen An’s palm, and among the four actresses Shuangxue, she was undoubtedly the top star!
"My Sassy Girl" became an instant hit, and classic films such as "The Martian" and "Inception" took turns to appear.
Even in the drama "My Love from the Star" that created a lot of memes back then, countless netizens hoped that Zeng Li should play the role of Cheon Song Yi.
The main reason is that some female stars are not good enough recently.
Unlike the several big actresses who dominated the industry around the millennium and then in the 10s, the era of the 85 flowers is now much worse than before.
Of course, there was also a time when Feng Xiaogang was at his peak, Zhang Yimou was eyeing an Oscar, Chen Kaige was full of poetic spirit, a large number of people from Hong Kong moved north, and Chen An was producing works frequently.
There are many excellent works, and overall they are much better than now.
Anyone can generate tens of billions at the box office.
Therefore, countless netizens are shouting that the times are regressing.
"It's been almost twenty years since "Little Forest" was released. Is there still anyone watching it?" Yu Jinghong asked in confusion.
She also browsed the Internet and occasionally saw comments about "Little Forest".
Chen An smiled calmly and said, "Now it's the age of streaming media and the Internet. Watching movies is much easier than before. Naturally, many people like to watch good movies."
Ultimately, that movie is more suitable for today's era.
I think my achievements back then were largely due to myself.
At that time, "the youngest best director in Cannes" was a big title, and he was also the first one in Chinese-language films.
The sequel brought a lot of attention, and only after the first part shined in the small days, the second part could achieve good results.
Taking out his phone, Chen An opened a certain audio app and searched for "Little Forest". "Just look for yourself. There are hundreds of millions of on-demand views, and it's still rising."
Looking at the screen of the mobile phone in Chen An's hand, he saw himself wearing his original neutral clothing, riding a bicycle on that path, listening to music, showing his quiet beauty.
"More than 100,000 likes." Zeng Li also glanced over to take a look.
The data is not bad. I clicked on the comments and saw all of them were praising him and some even wanted to challenge Chen An.
Yu Jinghong looked at it and burst out laughing, "Why do so many people want to challenge you in a one-on-one duel?"
"I don't know, maybe I'm just too handsome."
Faced with the other party's question that he knew the answer to, Chen An spoke shamelessly despite his age.
"Sisters Who Make Waves" was an idea that suddenly came to him, and he was definitely going to do it, but he didn't care whether the two of them went or not.
We don’t need them to go out and make money, we just think it’s interesting.
Yu Jinghong was once quite motivated to find some activities for the two of them.
It’s a pity that the last movie failed directly.
