Chapter 166 Influence the world from now on(1/2)
"Hahaha, what did I say to you?"
Columbia City, the summer wind is light and clouds are quiet. In the park, Kelsey was in a good mood, "Say it, say it, say it, say it."
"You said VIY will succeed...", "You said "The Wedding Time is Coming" will be very good.", "Kelsey, I really admire you."
Several little girls kept saying that they were Asian and white, and they all praised her eyes when they looked at her. Now Kelsey is so cool. She is the earliest VIY fan. The VIY spokespersons in their circle nowadays, except for those who "I don't like Asians", everyone wants to make friends with Kelsey.
"I have nothing to admire, I admire you." Kelsey smiled. It has changed a lot recently. She has become a cool child because of her wealth.
She also needs to be more mature and wise, don’t lose her idol’s face, waved her hand and said, “Forget the previous bet, we’re fine.”
"Awesome" the little girls cheered and then talked about Ye Wei, "Have you read his blog yesterday?", "It's very interesting."
"Don't you care about the box office of "The Wedding Time is Coming"?" Kelsey's expert tone was worthy of the spokesperson, "It's over 10 million dollars, it's amazing
"What?" they asked quickly.
Ranking——Number of release weeks——Number of theaters/changes———Average———Box office this week———Total box office
10th place - Week 4 - 106 (67) - 10,13B - 10,66-14 - 18,4866B
The number of 18.48 million in a single week has absolutely recovered the production and distribution costs and is absolutely profitable.
This shocked the world. The box office looked nothing special. It only ranked tenth this week. The yield rate is not unprecedented. There are films that are higher than it. For example, the documentary "The Super Code" in the 7th week was released at a cost of 36,000 yuan, which has received 20,000 yuan (-year-old director Morgan Poollock has also been popular recently and has also appeared on "Daily Show"); but the 6-year-old prodigy only has "The Wedding Time to Come".
Ye Wei officially became the youngest box office director in history
Moreover, this is a bad movie with limited creation. Although it claims to have a production fee of 60,000 yuan, only 00,000 yuan was used by Ye Wei for the remake.
As H's weekly box office report wrote, this is another box office miracle, an incredible miracle
In the 6th week, "The Marriage Day is Coming" will increase to 1,089 theaters and continue to be released on a large scale. No one knows how high this phoenix can fly as far as the fire.
"The Savior" only received 090,000 yuan in the box office (home) and trend 4B0. Next week, its potential has been exhausted, and a total box office of more than 800,000 yuan will be its report card. In fact, with its 260,000 production fee, it did not make money at the box office, and it had a good start and no good ending.
A new star jumped this week, the second place in "The Big Man Napoleon", received 60,000 FD in 18 theaters (an average of 19,600, and the number will increase to 73 next week, which looks like a great achievement.
"No debt, no trouble, succeeded, mom, top of the world"
On the lawn of the back garden of Ye family, Ye Wei held Duoduo on his back and rushed around happily. Duoduo patted his head happily and shouted childishly: "Mom, the top of the world." Toto followed him running, with his little tail flying.
On the porch of the room, Ye Haogen and Gu Qiao hugged each other, smiling so happily.
"I'm wrong, I'm wrong."
When talking about "The Wedding Time is Coming", Gotzman sighed so much with everyone. He experienced the miracle of "My Grand Greek Wedding", which cost 260,000 yuan in production costs, which cost 60 million yuan (*40 million North American box office, 200 million yuan overseas box office, and North American distribution took 61 weeks, 37 days). He thought there was no small-cost miracle that could surprise him anymore, but...
At first I thought Ye Wei was a little poison and did not support risk investment. The film was remade, and I thought the screening was just a process and there would be no second week. Then the response was very good, and I thought that the box office could be worth 60,000, and then 260,000, 660,000, 1.06 million?
None of them, it has reached this momentum of 18.48 million, and it is certain that 20 million is also very likely to be 30 million.
"The Wedding Time is Coming" is just an unexpected sweet joy. Their real investment is the Little Beauty of Sunshine. The talented Ye Wei's future is the most attractive
VIY can bring more, more, more
Hanks agreed with Gotzmann 100% and told his wife Rita many times recently: "Investing in this young man is one of the smartest life decisions I have ever made.
"It seems that's true." Rita certainly agreed.
The positioning of "Happy End" commercial comedy did not make it a bomb, with only 7.9 million in the first week (on average, ranked second (the champion this week was "Crazy Dodgeball", 370,000). The evaluation was barely passed, and it obviously couldn't sell well.
Although it is supported by the global market, with Spielberg Hanks' appeal, it is not difficult to recover 60 million in production fees in theaters alone, but this cannot satisfy anyone.
Actually, it was a bit ugly. After "The Old Woman Killer", Hanks almost fell down again. Fortunately, "The Wedding Time is Coming" helped him and gave him a glory to his face.
He accepted several interviews about discovering and investing in Ye Wei, and the media joked that he was the "God of Wedding".
At the same time, Ye Wei appeared on the cover of the latest issue of "Entertainment Weekly". His handsome hard photos were themed on the set, showing his charm of young directors, with the title: "Genius Power, Ye Wei"
This is an era of globalization, and Asian media are also enthusiastic about this miracle, this Chinese prodigy, especially the Chinese media
It is mainly new online media, and those who do not pay attention to European and American entertainment will not know that in 204, Chinese and global networks were very young. That was the era when the whole people listened to "Rat Love Rice" and talked about sweating, dizziness, and falling. But many lively places such as Maopu and Tieba were also lively. Ye Wei, Ye Wei, and Ye Weiba all had movie fans, and some controversial or smearing voices could also be seen.
For example, can Ye Wei speak Chinese? Does he recognize himself as Chinese?
People who don't like him say he definitely doesn't understand. He can't even write his own Chinese name, right? Does he have a Chinese name? Not to mention understanding Chinese culture, fake foreign devils, and traitors.
Those who like him said that according to the English information, he should understand his Chinese name is Ye Wei. His grandfather was an officer in the Anti-Japanese War. Why did he become a traitor?
At this time, Sina.com contacted Ye Wei's agency team and wanted to conduct a telephone interview, but Ye Wei's happy agreement was obtained.
On this day, this interview has also been published on the front page of the website. The fans who learned about it clicked to view it as soon as possible, and the dark guys were ready to move at the same time.
"Self-mockery?"
Albert frowned while reading this film review of Ye Wei in the Los Angeles Times. When he recalled "The Big Man Napoleon", where did he laugh at himself? This kid doesn't seem to be talking nonsense...
After thinking for a while, he called with his cell phone and asked a little, "Boy, why did you laugh at yourself in that movie?"
The two met at the premiere of "The Wedding Day is Coming" and exchanged business cards. They didn't usually contact each other, but this time the old man was so puzzled that he couldn't ask.
"Hey, Roger..." Ye Wei's voice was a little surprised, "You mean "The Big Man Napoleon"? Uh, I think... it was teasing itself from beginning to end. At the beginning, Napoleon replied to the child and said, "I do whatever I want. Oh my god, he told a child the theme of the video, the whole school bus was full of kids, Kt6 kids; teasing)"
"Isn't this just teasing the freak?" Albert asked again, "You've watched "Welcome to the Doll House", I gave it 4 stars, the same teenager pain, the same freak loser, it is full of anger, passion and character resistance, cruelty, spicy, philosophy, black humor, and it is also the debut work of director and screenwriter Todd Sorenz.
And what about Napoleon? Everything he did was self-inflicted, and even he laughed at his own efforts. As a result, he suddenly became a freak through a weird dance. Why did the audience feel so? Just like you were watching a mentally retarded doing simple handicrafts, you excitedly said it was great, it was just shameless superiority and compassion.
Director Jared Hess, he didn't want to discuss anything at all, and there would be a happy ending in Hollywood. The ending of "Welcome to the Doll House" is that what awaits the girl is another sad school year. What a permanent satirical mockery of Napoleon here, there are only some unrealistic fantasies."
"Napoleon is not Dawn, and "The Big Man Napoleon" is not "Welcome to the Doll House". "Ye Wei laughed helplessly, "It is not about the pain of teenagers. It is not that cruel and ruthless. I also love Dawn, but it is a very serious world. Napoleon's world also has a real side: we grew up in a confused way.
And it was also spicy, Napoleon also used a time machine and he wanted to go back to the 8ths. Before that, he had been working a lot to change his life, but he failed, so he wanted to leave. This is the same as "Welcome to the Doll House", isn't it? You worked a lot, but it was still a mess.
The difference is its happy ending, which is one of the reasons I love it. Napoleon himself has not changed, he just has some hope.
His hope is achieved through hard work, courage and luck. The key is, do you think nerds can explode? I think it will. The nerds explode and won applause. It’s not that he is no longer nerds, but that everyone knows him more.
You know some movies reveal scars in people's hearts, and some movies heal those scars. This movie is both self-deprecating and encouragement. When the freaks are down, they can say to themselves: 'I'm a Napoleon, and I can be a Napoleon too. Why are teenagers excited to watch this video because it gives them dreams."
"Then you still say you're self-deprecating?"
"It's cool to dream with a smile"
Albert was silent for a while before saying, "Boy, you are very emotional. I think nerds can explode, but they shouldn't be in that comedy."
"Roger, why should you be so serious? Let go of "Welcome to the Doll House", it's 204 now."
After the call ended, Albert fell into deep thought again, maybe he should have read Napoleon again.
"Yes, of course, I'll talk about it in detail then."
In the home office, put down the phone, Maurel shouted happily, invited a new job interview, the photographer of the family comedy project "The Little Devils Going On the Road" was a budget of 600,000 yuan. This is the fourth or fifth opportunity he has recently obtained. Although it may not be negotiated in the end, his position in the industry is no longer on the edge.
Because of "The Marriage Is Coming", it turned over and rose, just like the old man of time forgives him and makes him return to his youth, hahahaha
I love VIY I love VIY
Not only Maurel was shouting this sentence, but Peter Heller. His production reputation could not be returned to the state before "The Legend of Jordan" was screwed up, but he was safe, and film merchants and investors began to believe him again. He has overcome the difficulties in his life and has not been eliminated by the film industry.
There is also screenwriter Carsten McCann, editor Susanne Hines, and the soundtrack Christopher Lenaz who was almost killed by "Soul Dream Flying"...
The luckiest ones are "Born" Todd Sage, "Kana" Ashley Imato, two older young actors who were originally unknown without INDb avatar photos, suddenly received many supporting role auditions for comedy movies to invite the next contract documents for the next film.
Not only that, with the current box office, they can also get a postpaid salary and bonus. It's great
Not only them, Michael He Ent was also very excited. Now the script of "Sunlight Beauty" is definitely a sure thing, and it is certain, and I believe VIY can be filmed well.
With Ye Wei's success, lawyer Salton also has many new clients, and everything is developing upward.
Become, mom, top of the world
Nicholas Tsuki and Gia Coppola were also widely praised for their performance this time. The Coppola family has really made a big splash this year.
Some people are lucky, and some are unlucky. Kevin Thomas, the more successful Ye Wei is, the more he is scolded. The film industry has no place for him, and he is completely finished
"Weige, I'm very sorry, I'm really sorry, can you let me go?"
One night, Kevin Thomas got drunk and was thrown out of the bar. After sitting on the street corner, he called and said something emotionally.
"I didn't do you, it was your own fault that sent yourself into the abyss. If you want me to publicly say that I forgive you, believe that you have corrected it, get away. But can I stop you from making a movie? If you want to shoot, who can't stop it? If you want to correct it, no one can stop you. But you? Kevin Thomas? There is nothing to say to you, just do it."
Dudu—
The mobile phone fell to the ground, and Kevin Thomas fell down drunk and died, making him a street tramp.
On Saturday, June 2, Roger Albert adjusted the review of "Big Man Napoleon" on his personal website from 6 stars to 2 stars, and added a paragraph after the original review: "I was told that this film has a self-deprecating side. Indeed, it has some self-deprecating moments, but it cannot cover up its shallowness and fantasy.
Even so, the media and the public know that this is the recognition of Ye Wei's film review. The half star was won back by VIY for it, and the light of the VIYR spoon shines on it.
That's the influence
Jared and Jarusha were incredible to see this change.
"The Wedding Period is Coming" is almost a month away. During this period, Lowett has not felt at ease for a day. He wanted to talk to Willis about this matter several times, but every time he spoke, Willis changed the subject in an incorrect expression, and he couldn't continue.
The big man didn't cause trouble for him, and he gradually thought it was okay, but the superstar was moody, so he kept worrying... Then it happened, and Willis's angry call suddenly came.
"The Wedding Time is Coming" is about to reach 20 million yuan, do you know? They are about to announce the project of Sunlight Little Beauty. The whole world must know that I am a fool?"
Sina.com: Hello Ye Wei, we are honored to have this telephone interview with you. This is your first time to be interviewed by Chinese media.
Ye Wei: Hello, Hello, friends from China, yes, I feel very honored.
Sina.com: Today I have prepared ten questions for you. The first one is a question that domestic netizens have been arguing about for a long time. Can you speak Chinese?
