"Shadow" has become the biggest winner of the Spring Festival.
However, "shadow" is not "Fengshen 2" after all. The historical theme has inherent limitations. The script of "shadow" also focuses on reversal, making a breakthrough in the plot and sacrificing some universality.
For those who just want to have fun in the cinema, the attraction of movie is not enough, because movie is not a pure commercial movie.
At the end of the story, the setting of true or false Pei Wang stabbing the protagonist Jing Zhou to death is naturally a step up for the whole plot, which improves the film's score by at least 0.5 points. However, for the box office, this ending does not add points.
Instead, it's better to let Jingzhou have a stand in until the end.
Because most of the audience are still the main characters when they watch movies.
However, Yue Guan himself played Pei Wang, so in the end, he did not hesitate to choose a favorable setting for himself, so he was willing to sacrifice some box office.
Anyway, he went back to assist later.
In the end, Zhang Yimou and Deng Chao were very satisfied with the box office of the film, even overjoyed.
1.12 billion Long Yuan.
Zhang Yimou is the highest box office movie in his directing career.
After the movie was released, the audience and the media talked about Zhang Yimou, and most of them said "the return of the king".
In the movie, Zhang Yimou really reached a peak.
As well as Zhang Yimou, Deng Chao gained a lot.
Before the movie, Deng Chao had a high position among the Mesozoic stars.
But the film consolidated his position and made him a success.
His performance in the film even surpassed Yue Guan's. after all, he played more roles in the film, and one person played two roles, which made him more brilliant in setting.
Yue Guan's last role as Pei Wang, after all, has only a short ending, so it is impossible for him to perform a distinctive character.
So from the actor's point of view, Deng Chao is really the best actor in this play.
Many people think that it is very stable for Deng Chao to win a few film masters by relying on the film, and even the heaviest Golden Dragon Award is hopeful.
In addition to the box office accumulation of Deng Chao himself, his status in the film industry has already surpassed that of Huang Xiaoming.
Of course, Deng Chao's contacts are far from perfect.
Huang Xiaoming finished the grand slam a long time ago.
However, the evaluation of professionals in the industry is not the same as that of the audience.
Huang Xiaoming got all the Grand Slam movie stars, and he was still beaten by several other male stars who had never won a grand slam in terms of box office appeal.
There is a scale in the audience's mind.
And Deng Chao is now in the audience's mind, has begun to be listed as a good actor can be trusted this level.
It's a huge boost for him.
Therefore, Zhang Yimou and Deng Chao were very grateful to yueguan.
They both knew that Yue Guan was the greatest credit for the success of the film's box office and public praise.
If Yue Guan hadn't changed the script, the box office and reputation of the movie would have been cut by half.
At the celebration banquet, they toasted to yueguan.
"Yue Guan, here's to you."
In fact, Zhang Yimou doesn't talk much, but when he sees Yue Guan, his words can't stop.
"It's the right decision I made last year to put you on the film crew." Zhang Yimou thinks he is too wise.
Yue Guan said modestly, "the most I can do for the success of the film is director Zhang's directing skills, acting skills of Chao Ge and other actors, and then publicity."
"Yue Guan, you are modest. Your contribution is more than 60%. If you make a wrong choice, no effort will work." Deng Chao shook his head and said: "I can play the original script well, but no matter how well I play it, it's useless. It doesn't have much impact on the overall performance and reputation of a play. Without you changing the script and setting the general direction, "film" is just an ordinary historical film. It won't be hailed as the best domestic historical film in history as it is now. "
Deng Chao is a man of understanding.
So is Zhang Yimou.
So neither of them inflated.
Keeping a good relationship with yueguan is more important than inflation.
Especially Zhang Yimou.
He looked at yueguan eagerly. If yueguan didn't know that he was a gourd boy, he would be afraid that he would have thought about himself.
Zhang Yimou does have an idea about yueguan, but this idea is career oriented.
"Yue Guan, you said before that if the box office of" shadow "broke one billion, I would shoot the" Xianqin "series, right?" Zhang Yimou looked at yueguan with some expectation.
It is said that after the success of film, he has many choices.
But compared with Xianqin Empire, the other choices in Zhang Yimou's eyes are all rotten fish and shrimps, which are not worth mentioning.Zhang Yimou knows in his heart that if he can make the "Xianqin Empire" trilogy well, no, he doesn't have to do it very well. As long as he can achieve the quality of the "Fengshen" trilogy, with his own position, he can basically become the first person in the directing circle without dispute, and at least keep it for another ten years.
After all, his foundation and reputation were much stronger than wuershan before.
At Zhang Yimou's age and level, fame is even more attractive to him.
And "Xianqin Empire" is obviously the most valuable addition to his fame.
So he wanted it.
Yueguan didn't want Zhang Yimou.
"Director Zhang, Xianqin series can give you, but the same requirements as before."
Yue Guan looked at Zhang Yi, with a very calm tone: "I has the final say in the script, and the final editing right of the movie is in my hands. Of course, we can discuss it, but when we have a conflict, my will will prevail. Can you accept it? "
Generally speaking, such a request will not be accepted by a big director.
Zhang Yimou didn't accept Yue Guan's proposal before, otherwise he would be the director of Fengshen trilogy.
But one time, another.
The success of Fengshen has promoted wuershan's position in the industry by leaps and bounds.
The success of the film also gave Zhang Yimou a deeper understanding of yueguan's ability and trust.
"Yue Guan, if I didn't make the film before, I certainly don't agree with this condition." Zhang Yi said: "but now, these problems are not problems. I believe in your ability. You're better than me in the script. "
Yue Guan was not modest: "director Zhang, your skills are all focused on color and picture, and you are not really brilliant in script and plot arrangement. But I think about it carefully. If anyone in the whole dragon kingdom can raise the upper limit of the Xianqin series, it's only director Zhang. No other director can do it. "
This wave of commercial mutual promotion has obviously made Zhang Yimou very useful.
The two soon agreed to cooperate.
This makes Yue Guan feel a little bit.
A few years ago, Zhang Yimou did not have this attitude.
Now, he did not feel insulted when he bowed his head in front of him.
Zhang Yimou has not gone downhill in recent years, and has just reached a new peak.
But he still bowed his head in front of himself and agreed to his terms.
Because I have made faster progress in recent years.
That's how the world works.
The higher you stand, the more people will respect you and your words will be heard.
So, young man, keep working hard.
The respect you want is always for yourself.
