Chapter 289 Rank and Box Office
In fact, the movies, TV series and other works that Peng Hui has participated in have always been hits.
But in fact, there is really no profit in it.
Otherwise, Peng Hui would not have lost his status and participated in some talent show.
Simply no money.
Someone will ask.
Isn't the reputation of the Golden Horse Award for Best New Director just about money?
But the problem is that at that time, Peng Hui did not have the title "Koi".
Although the title "Koi" became popular recently with "Produce 101", when Peng Hui participated in the variety show, he did not have one.
Think about it, although Peng Hui did win the title of Best New Director at the Golden Horse Film Festival, it was because of "July and Ansheng", and this film, strictly speaking, is not a commercial film, but an artistic film.
And what about "Flash Girl", which is positioned as a commercial film?
Although after Peng Hui's modification, no money was lost, but no money was made either.
In other words, his commercial value is not much.
And although he was a pillar of the Rays at that time, he received a dead salary, a fixed salary. Although this value was already very good among newcomers,...
Not much really.
Peng Hui doesn't participate in commercials, and he doesn't have any money. If he doesn't participate in variety shows, what can he do?
As for why I participated in the draft...
In fact, this is a positioning issue.
Although Peng Hui has his own traffic and many people have heard his songs, does anyone know his true strength?
Peng Hui has never performed a real live broadcast singing!
Who knows what his strength is?
So compared to directors, Peng Hui's achievements as a singer are very low.
But his singing talent is even higher.
It’s also considered fate.
He could have participated in many variety shows, but why did he choose "Tomorrow's Son"?
The reason is to prove myself.
He is not just a director, nor just an actor!
So he chose the draft.
After all, he has never debuted with a serious song. Most of his previous songs were OSTs, so from the beginning, Peng Hui placed his position very low.
Although some people later accused Peng Hui of purely bullying others, many people still had their own judgment on whether he sang well or not.
What sounds good is good, what sounds bad is bad.
Therefore, the movie that Peng Hui really makes money from is "Wolf Warrior 2", which he accidentally participated in and invested in.
And his first profitable film was "The Return of the Great Sage".
The Golden Horse Best New Director is just an honor, and as a director, in addition to your awards, you also need to look at your commercial value!
For example, Chen Kaige.
Do you think Lao Chen is bad?
It's not that "Farewell My Concubine" doesn't explain it, and Lao Chen's professional directing skills don't explain it.
But do you think Lao Chen’s commercial value is high?
Nonsense!
Among the fifth generation directors, he is the lowest!
Commercial value and popularity are two different things.
Can you say a sanitary napkin is bad?
Girls can use it to protect their aunt, and boys can use it as a height-increasing insole.
But what is its commercial value?
So you really can’t take things at face value.
If you think about it from another angle, you may get a different feeling.
The filming was going on in an orderly manner, but halfway through filming, Peng Hui decided to change the movie's title.
""The Richest Man in Xihong City"?" Cheng Xiao asked in surprise: "Director Peng, do you have anything to say?"
"It's very popular, and the name is easy to remember." Peng Hui explained with a smile.
"Director Peng..." Shen Teng on the side suddenly asked: "Will this city...be the main body of your movie universe?"
Peng Hui was stunned for a moment, then asked with a smile: "Why do you ask that?"
"I found that some of the buildings in this city look very familiar." Shen Teng said in surprise.
Peng Hui smiled and said nothing.
Cheng Xiao was stunned for a moment, then quickly went to get his phone, rummaged for a long time, looked around again, and then exclaimed: "So that's it!"
It attracted the attention of many staff members.
Peng Hui greeted with a smile and turned on the phone.
For Peng Hui, the whole "The Richest Man in Xihong City" was not difficult. Although there were some twists and turns, it was not a big problem.
Another half month passed and the filming finally ended.
Including the Easter eggs, it took a total of one and a half months.
For a comedy film, it is indeed a bit long.
But there is no way, after all, most people have very tight schedules, and Peng Hui also has to go through various coordination.
As summer vacation approaches, theaters are starting to get busy.
Just after I passed the college entrance examination, I suddenly had five works on the shelves.
A month later, the final box office figure of "Cohabitation in Time and Space" was fixed at 1.1 billion.
It's a good start.
Immediately afterwards, with the popularity of "Cohabitation in Time and Space", Minghui Studio released the first trailer of "The Wandering Earth" half a month in advance.
As the biggest actor in the whole movie, even though he was just a guest star, Peng Hui still put Wu Jing in the first place in terms of movie roles.
The second place is Peng Hui.
This is normal. The third person, after being pushed away by Uncle Da, Li Guangjie and others, gave Mai Zi.
Therefore, in the film's promotional poster, Maizi is on the other side of Wu Jing, and the promotion intensity is also tripled.
In recent years, artists have paid more and more attention to their positions.
The reason is still caused by the statistics of the film’s box office.
Some people have indeed starred in a certain film, but can you say that your supporting role alone has a box office of billions?
Nonsense!
But the problem is that in some plays there is not just one leading actor, but there are often five or six people.
So who does this movie belong to then?
There is such a thing as "rank".
Whichever title is the main promotion, then whose film belongs to it.
And because many big names have taken the initiative to play villains in the past two years, in some dramas, the heroine does not even have as many roles as the villain, so naturally it is not easy to choose the role at this time.
Later, we simply decided to keep it within three times.
This is the reason why these days there is a list of box office rankings within three times that seems absurd, but seems to make some sense.
In fact, the reason why I say this is because Maizi has made a lot of money!

Still Lin Dongsheng, still Chu Jie.
The two of them are now on summer vacation and just took the train back home yesterday.
Because the two have been dating for several years and their relationship has always been stable, the two families are very open-minded about their affairs.
Lin Dongsheng's family has a sister who is five years older than him, and Chu Jie's family has a twin sister.
Chu Jie's younger sister, Chu Jing, went to school in Daqing and is said to have not had a boyfriend yet.
Occasionally, the four of us would get together to eat and chat during winter and summer vacations.
It’s time for the annual dinner party again.
