Chapter One Hundred and Sixty Seven: Fake drama and real fight.

[Fuse] The box office in the mainland on the first day is 13.86 million, and the attendance rate of first-tier cities such as Beijing, Shanghai and Guangzhou has reached an astonishing 80%, which is definitely a good start. Ye Weixin was so excited that according to this trend, the box office in the mainland is likely to exceed 100 million, and he is about to become a member of the billion-dollar director club.

You should know that in 2007, the directors who could have a box office of over 100 million yuan could count it with one hand, and the value is extremely high.

Compared to the director, the actors discussed the most in the comment section of the [Fuse] are still the actors. As a police and gangster kung fu film, Gu Zai did not have many fighting scenes in this drama, and the literary scenes were not exciting in [Disciples], and the audience basically ignored him.

Some viewers compared Fan Bingbing and Zhang Jingchu. I have to say that although Zhang Jingchu is not very popular, her acting skills are still unspeakable. Fan Bingbing's acting skills are still much inferior to hers, so it is normal for the audience to complain about it.

Of course, as a supporting role, Gu Zai and Fan Bingbing have not had a high discussion, and more discussions are still centered on Zhou Xing and Fur Zhaolong. Fur Zhaolong, as the No. 1 counterpart, is undoubtedly one of the most outstanding characters in the film. Tony's ruthlessness and cunning in the essay drama make people shudder. When talking about martial arts dramas, many viewers even worry whether the protagonist will not be able to beat him.

Zhou Xing's mixed martial arts element of MMA in the fighting scenes is also sought after by many fighting fans. Many viewers even believe that Zhou Xing's move will affect all future kung fu movies and is of great significance.

After the painting of [Transformers], domestic films began to become the main force in the mainland market. In addition to the outstanding performance of [Fuse], a movie that can be regarded as an alternative almost subverted the cognition of the entire film industry, that is, Jay Chou himself directed and acted [The Secret I Can't Say].

There are many examples of good singers and performing in the entertainment industry, which is not surprising. If Jay Chou starred in a certain movie, at most fans would pay attention to it and media reports. However, when it was revealed that Jay Chou was directed and acted by himself, almost the entire entertainment industry was not optimistic about this movie.

Many seniors in the circle even ridiculed him: he wanted to learn to run without even learning how to walk.

In fact, it is not just that people in the circle are not optimistic, but even many fans of Jay Chou are not optimistic that he can direct and act on his own. After all, director was still a "high-end" profession in 2007.

However, [The Secret I Can't Say] The box office exceeded 6 million on the first day of its release. Many media even confirmed the data with the theater several times before publishing it. They always felt that the staff member who released the data was shaking for a while and scored an extra zero.

When the news was confirmed, the media began to report overwhelmingly, and for a while, various voices of encouragement, criticism, and pantothenicity began to surround Jay Chou, and at the same time pushed him to the forefront.

The most common voices in the media are still questioning the box office [Secrets that cannot be told]. The box office was made by Jay Chou’s fans. Suddenly, a term began to appear in the public eye "fan economy".

Jay Chou is indisputable because according to the investigation, at least one-third of the box office of his fans was contributed by his fans, and many viewers who were not fans also liked some of his songs.

In fact, to be honest, [The Secret I Can't Say] can be regarded as a qualified youth film, and the integration of suspense and music is just right. The only thing worth criticizing is Jay Chou's acting skills. He can only use one word to describe "green". However, in a youth film, it is actually boring to be too mature in acting.

[Fuse] The box office exceeded 46.3 million in the first week, and Huang Baiming couldn't even close his mouth. The overseas copyright income of this film has recovered. Now the box office is purely profitable. In the end, what you watch is the return.

[Secret that cannot be told] The box office exceeded 23 million in the first week, but it is also obvious that it lacks its potential.

In the end, the box office in the mainland reached 102 million yuan, the box office in Xiangjiang was 13 million yuan, and another movie that exceeded 100 million yuan was born. At the same time, Ye Weixin was successfully sent to the billionaire director club. For a time, many media reported on this title.

[The Secret I Can't Say] The final box office was only 34 million, which was far lower than expected, but even so, it was quite awesome. At the same time, the "fan economy" has become a proposition that many film and television companies began to study.

After ending the promotion of [Fuse], Zhou Xing and Zhu Zhaolong returned to the [Ship of the Name] crew again.

At this time, more than half of the scenes of [Shipment of the Farewell] have been in progress, but the next scenes are all hard. Since Zhou Xing was going to participate in the promotion of [Fuse] before, his scenes have been suppressed and he has not been filmed, so he naturally became the busiest person in the crew.

"You are betting, you are betting on eight hundred lives."

This is a night scene. Zhou Xing sat in front of the table wearing armor, holding the table with one hand, and staring forward with bright eyes: "War is a bet."

Lu Dashan, played by Zhou Bo, shook his head slightly: "I don't gamble. My 1,500 soldiers are the family of Mr. Chen. If he loses the bet, Mr. Chen will be unsure of speaking in the court."

"How can you take action?" Zhou Xing asked in a deep voice.

"My soldiers only give you a strong momentum."

Pang Qingyun, played by Zhou Xing, gritted her teeth: "This is the only chance you can win!" As she said that, she stood up and sternly said: "Otherwise, Kuiziying will always step on you!"

After saying that, he quickly walked out of the barracks without stopping. He had already said everything he should say. The other party was also a veteran and could not make him change his mind in just a few words.

"Ka, this one has passed, the work has ended." Chen Kexin walked to Zhou Xing: "Thank you for your hard work, go back early to rest. It's no easier to run for promotion than filming."

In fact, if it weren't for the scenes that were too late, he wouldn't have let Zhou Xing start filming on the same day he came back. The publisher had already issued an ultimatum that the drama must be released at the end of the year, so there is not much time left for him.

Zhou Xing was not polite either. He fell asleep when he returned to the hotel and said nothing all night.

Turning around, before dawn, Zhou Xing was woken up by his assistant Xiaomei: "Boss, wake up, the crew has started construction."

The reason I get up so early is because there are sunrise scenes in this scene, which is also a big scene. The extras gather and queue up take a lot of time, so I have to prepare before sunrise.

"Boss, the breakfast shop has not opened yet. I'll get you a bowl of instant noodles. I'll deal with two people when you put on makeup later." Assistant Xiaomei was inexplicably sad. Fans will only see the bright and beautiful side of the stars. Who knows how much they have paid behind it.

Zhou Xing lacked enough sleep, so he just said "hmm" and sat down to make up for his sleep. Andy Lau and the others were the same. He was having a night show last night and got up so early today, so he couldn't stand it.

There are more than 1,300 extras in this scene. The deputy director is almost busy and urges them to change their clothes and queue up. Many of the extras have just received the job and are not prepared at all. Many of them are still sleepwalking now and are not very efficient.

"Hehe, I'm all energetic, where's the group leader? Didn't you notify you earlier? They all went to thieves last night? If you don't want to do it, you'll get out as soon as possible."

The shouts of the assistant director can be heard everywhere. The group leader wanted to calm the emotions of the extras and cheer them up, and at the same time they had to say good things to the assistant director with a smile. This is the case, and it is not easy for anyone to do it.

All these preparations alone took about an hour and a half, and finally it was bright and all the extras and equipment were in place.

"The letter of the title, Act 125, Mirror 2435, action."

Zhao Erhu, played by Andy Lau, rode a horse to the front of the formation, and an extra was holding a white flag in his hand and came to the front.

"There are huge differences between the masses, and the high and the low are judged immediately. The grace of heaven is so great that you can save you from surrender..."

Suddenly, Zhao Erhu drew his sword and waved it. The visitor fell from the horse's back and died with one blow.

The morale of the "Shanzi Camp" is high, and the extras waved the props in their hands and shouted.

"Kill!" Jiang Wuyang, played by Kim Sung-wo, gave the order, and the front row extras held a bamboo basket in their hands and used as shields and rushed up.

In the opposite camp, musketeers stepped out of the line, and rows of cold muzzles pointed at the charging crowd. With the command, the muskets raised a row of white smoke.

Then, a large area of ​​charge fell down the queue.

"I'm almost dead and I won't go?" Zhao Erhu's eyes were red.

Pang Qingyun scolded angrily: "Remember to me, there is only one commander on the battlefield!"

At this time, the distance between the two sides was only one hundred steps. Seeing this, Jiang Wuyang shouted: "Shoot the arrow!"

The archers hiding behind the crowd shot, and the musketeers of the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom were killed and injured, and they retreated one after another. The two sides fought each other in close combat, and the enemy formation was scattered.

"Preparation!" Pang Qingyun was preparing to command when he saw this, but before the word "rush" was released, Zhao Erhu could no longer hold back and led the team to rush out.

"Marine urethra!"

At the command of Andy Lau, Zhao Erhu, played by Andy Lau, all the martial arts riding horses took out a black cloth to cover the urethra. This section was filmed six times alone. It was not easy for those who were running at high speed to complete such an operation. Without superb riding skills, your hands might lose balance once they left the reins and fell down.

No wonder many similar shots are now replaced by fake horses. Superb riding skills cannot be practiced in one or two days.

The cavalry on both sides hedged, with people coming back and horses falling over, and Pang Qingyun later joined the battlefield. This scene was also the scene where Zhou Xing fought the most in [Ship of the Farewell].

What’s more interesting is that when Chen Kexin was filming, he found that many extras were extremely dedicated and had real expressions during the fight.

As a result, when he shouted "click", both sides were still fighting.

The deputy director quickly led people forward and pulled them apart. After asking, he found out that both sides actually made a real hit, and his performance just now was a real hit.

I finally persuaded the person to be taken down and sent the injured person to the hospital, and I was busy for a while.

At the end of October, [Shipment of the Declaration] finally completed the filming of the last scene and was officially completed.

Chen Kexin took a sip: "I will never shoot war movies again."
Chapter completed!
