Just as the popularity of "Brother Dong" played by Zhu Xichun has soared, the movie box office is also relying on word-of-mouth, which is getting higher day by day, quite replicating the box office momentum of "囧囧".
What a man!
The toughest guy!
The fiercest man!
Such titles all fell on Zhu Xichun. In a short period of time, starting from the Northeast, as a Northeastern man who would never lag behind in following the trend, he had to make arrangements.
It just so happened that the weather at this time was not so hot that I didn't need to wear a coat, so the 'imitation dress' mode was turned on. Suddenly, the streets and alleys, especially those boys with huge or even fat bodies, came to benefit. It was popular in the past. When it comes to European-style suits, it has nothing to do with us.
Now they are wearing suits, brown sunglasses, a big gold chain, and a handsome watch with a big steel chain, and there is a slight lateral sway when they walk. Even though the weather in late May has been getting hotter than 20 degrees from time to time, it does not delay them from continuing to suit. Leather shoes.
Is it hot?
[Why is it so hot? Haven’t you seen Brother Dong still wearing a suit in Taiguo? 】
From north to south, it begins to spread.
For a long time, fashion trends have been unfriendly to tall, strong and some fat men.
This time, we have our own trend vane, and such attire is not only limited to the few men with such figures in China and Taiguo. Now we have goals in dressing. For some important occasions, we must dress like this. There are cards.
What is unexpected is that once this movie was released in Kimchi Country, it was no less popular than Huaxia and Taiguo. Especially the 'tattoos' on Zhu Xichun's body in it, some people began to interpret: That's Some totems commonly used in tattoos in our country have very distinctive characteristics of our nation.
Being fat does not mean being strong. Many men are powerless to lose weight, but they still have a certain degree of confidence in making themselves stronger. At least it is not as painful as losing weight. As long as we practice well, we will soon have good results in putting on clothes - —Brother Dong showed us that being strong can also be at the forefront of fashion trends.
Who would have thought that a movie would indirectly boost the gym's business?
Directly, various southern clothing factories have made a fortune again. All kinds of clothing with the same style as "The Legend of Evil" have begun to be sold wholesale, and online shopping of the same style has also appeared on the Internet.
Brown sunglasses, leather shoes, including a thicker gold necklace that has gradually withdrawn from the popular stage a few years ago, 'return for a limited time'.
On the Internet, Zhu Xichun was even more popular. After his popular role in the movie became popular, he did not accept interviews from other media. A few days later, Maoya launched an online promotion.
"All gentlemen, your Dong brother is here!"
In the preview of the live broadcast, Zhu Xichun faced the camera: "Hello everyone, let's meet on Maoya Live tonight. I will share with you the story behind "The Legend of the Bad"."
Originally, Running Man planned to record an episode of the program temporarily. Fans of the program on the Internet were frantically calling for our 'ability users' and 'bell messengers' to return quickly. We wanted to watch a program planned by the same name as the movie.
Netizens and fans have even designed the final ending. Resident guests and flying guests will surround and suppress 'Brother Dong' together. But remember, among all the encirclement and suppression personnel, there are accomplices of 'Brother Dong', just like in the movie. In the film, Tony Jaa's character has finally become half an accomplice of 'Brother Dong'.
After Maoya announced that Zhu Xichun will be broadcast live on Maoya, fans of Running Man have no voice. Only Maoya live broadcast can make fans who think Running Man is the hometown of "Brother Dong" feel that they should not complain. scold.
After all, we are all one family.
a lovely family.
Immediately, fans of Maoya, fans of The Voice, and fans of Tang Tan all ran over and made "hug" animated emoticons on the Internet. We are all members of the big family of Mr. Wei's industrial chain. Whoever comes first in the family It doesn’t matter in the end. We are also looking forward to the live broadcast in the evening. We want to hear the story about this movie and why there is such a tailor-made movie. It will make Zhu Xichun famous in one fell swoop and make similar images without the protagonist. The facts of the performance were subverted.
Thirteen million, twenty-five million, fifty-eight million, sixty-nine million...
The box office has entered the hottest stage, a period that will not become a popular period. "The Evil Dead" stands out. It was not optimistic in the early stage. I felt that such a movie must be shoddy and not even have a star.
Now, Zhu Xichun is a star, Tony Jia has also become famous in China, Wang Qianyuan has become popular in the industry to a certain extent, and his reputation has risen. A stack of villain scripts have been placed on his desk, hoping that he can truly become a character who challenges various The idea of being an actor who excels in his roles seems to be shattered now?
Wang Qianyuan rejected many books, including those with poor quality and those with acceptable quality. He did not want to be solidified.
After so many years, Sun Meili has not really come out of Liu Huaqiang's role. "Landing to Clear the Cell Phone" has confirmed this positioning. If he plays other roles, if he does not have the background of a strong man, it will be difficult to become popular. In the eyes of Wei Tao, the popular "Latent" is more about the script and the actors achieving each other, and it definitely cannot be regarded as Sun Meili's strong acting skills to support the character.
Wang Qianyuan knew that it was Mr. Wei who named him this role.
I don’t know him, I’ve never met him, I’m not familiar with him at all. The movie is popular, and so is he. I don’t know how to thank him even if I want to thank him.
When he learned that Zhu Xichun was going to live broadcast on Maoya, he immediately reacted and asked his agent to contact Maoya and the person in charge of the film production company. The main request was to go to Maoya for an interview-type live broadcast. Is it a reciprocation? He felt that he There should be some attitude.
………………
"Hello, Mr. Wei."
"Hello, Mr. Wei."
Tony Jia and Wang Qianyuan saw the young Mr. Wei. They both knew that Mr. Zhu Xichun and this Mr. Wei were classmates and good friends. They knew that Mr. Wei was young. When they actually met, they found that he was younger than expected and dressed more sporty. The leisure is completely like that of a college student. If it were not for the preconceived cognition, it would be impossible to connect the status of a self-made billionaire with the person in front of me.
"Sorry, I've been traveling abroad and haven't been able to meet you two."
Although it is not the wedding of the century, as long as you pay attention, you can still know that Wang Qianyuan and Tony Jia also thought about going to Songjiang to attend the wedding. The relationship was a bit far away. The movie was finished filming at that time, and Zhu Xichun and Zhu Xichun did not film together every day, and they did not feel it was appropriate to contact them. .
Wei Tao took the initiative to treat him to a meal, and the two of them prepared a wedding gift that was not too high in value but still affordable enough.
There was no refusal, Wei Tao took it away very seriously, did not put it aside casually, and did not refuse to accept it. After a dinner, both the guests and the host enjoyed themselves. Tony Jia and Wang Qianyuan also expressed their hope that they would have the opportunity to work together again.
The live broadcast that night became a live broadcast by three people. The person who arranged the interview was the female anchor Ke Xin. As an assistant, she brought up some issues that the audience was concerned about and let the three people talk as the main subjects.
They talked about interesting things about the shooting and the stories behind the shooting. Finally, Zhu Xichun, who was already firmly in the C position, made two explosive revelations, which also made the live broadcast popular. In a flash, it directly topped the entertainment hot search. Top position.
"This film is an idea provided by my good friend Wei Tao. When we were sitting together drinking during the Chinese New Year, when he mentioned this idea, the entire plot was almost the same as the current film. The addition of the screenwriter later enriched the entire film. Creativity, he told me at the time, practice hard, act well, and tell everyone, who said that I, Zhu Xichun, can only become a special actor."
"Just before dinner, he told me another story. I'm looking forward to it, but this time, I'm destined to only play a major supporting role."
Wei Tao is not from the entertainment industry, but are there still people who don't regard him as an industry insider?
With money, resources, and things on his mind, the film market has just begun to take off in a big way, and he has been in the C position from the launch to the popularity.
Is he 'creative' again?
At this time, "The Legend of the Wicked" is still being released, and Zhu Xi Chunhuo's peak moment has not yet arrived. Even if there are new ideas, shouldn't he be the absolute protagonist? If you want to raise the profile, you can have two male protagonists. Now that Zhu Xichun has made it clear that he is the main supporting role, who is the protagonist?
There are many talented people in the hot search comments. Some people thought that this was Wei Tao's stunt and he was deliberately laying bait. Just watch, there are guaranteed to be some big-name actors and actresses who are already contacting Anshun Entertainment.
The imagination of netizens is unimaginably powerful. They guessed that they are almost the same. The only difference is that Wei Tao is not deliberately baiting him. It is a copy of a movie with the theme of "loss" like "Mountain Journey". Zhu Xichun can only act. The supporting role, the power of the fist is outputted in reverse, so that everyone has higher expectations for such a supporting role. The protagonist, who is not a big star or movie king, is not considered at all.
In the Running Man program more than ten days later, there was a deliberate segment in the program. Zhu Xichun chatted with Brother Chao, and they talked about "The Legend of the Evil Man" and the new movie. Although it was only mentioned in a sentence or two, it was a deliberately designed segment. Details, exposed.
"The new movie is my dream come true."
What dream?
It doesn't matter if the audience didn't pay attention. They used their own publicity to hype up such a topic. It wasn't until preparations for the new movie began, and it wasn't until the main creative staff appeared some time later that everyone knew what Zhu Xichun's dream was.
One month after its release, "The Evil Dead" was released.
Such a movie, which did not surprise everyone in terms of plot, grossed 800 million in box office within one month of its release.
For this reason, Bao Xiqian specially returned to Yanjing and saved a place to have dinner with Jiang Wen and others. After just ten years of sharpening his sword, he took out "Let the Bullets Fly" and the flying was extremely fierce, which brought him back to the top. , as a result, the final box office figure was surpassed by "The Evil Dead" before it could even warm up to the "highest number of the year" position. The key point is that at the story level, even a layman can see that Jiang Wen's movie is overwhelming.
Wei Tao can not care, but Bao Xiqian cannot care. She has now found a new goal in the entertainment industry, and she is still thinking about making great achievements. Next, Wei Tao's new ideas will form the script, start filming, and finally be released. She is in charge.
It is necessary to have a good relationship with the big shots in the industry. Bao Xiqian has the innate advantage of being born and raised. She, as a 'princess', is not a 'princess' in the entertainment industry. In addition, she is senior and faces many people who are much older than her. They are all friends of the same generation. Many people who are similar in age to her or even just a little younger are her juniors.
She is in the Beijing circle and has a natural advantage. She has never thought about connecting with others. We only need someone to support each other, and we don't need to rely on the so-called big tree in your entertainment industry.
………………
In mid-June, "The Great Success" was released.
"The Legend of Evil" could have been released for a longer period of time, but Wei Tao directly called for a halt to make way for this gift film. Even if the box office is already very small every day, don't be an eyesore and make way for this film to be better in all aspects of data. During the time it was released, one family was the dominant one and I was the only one.
Wei Tao was invited to attend the grand premiere. He did not choose to walk on the red carpet. Instead, he appeared directly in a separate lounge backstage with the corresponding official senior personnel. Compared with the stars shining outside, no one here was a star.
Backstage, everyone with some information channels, including big bosses from some film and television companies in the industry, were secretly looking at the door at the end of the rest area. There were several security guards standing at the door of the small hall. Anyone who could go to that door Anyone who enters is enough to get the attention of the 'big names' celebrities in the backstage rest area.
In the eyes of celebrities, these big names in the industry were all paying attention to that door. The third master and several truly top big names were invited to enter that room.
Wei Tao was wearing a Chinese tunic suit. Under the guidance of a dedicated receptionist, he entered from another road, parked in a specially designated area on the back street, and walked a short path of more than ten meters to enter the premiere.
There is a door at the far end, and there is a red carpet outside, with artists coming in constantly.
Lu Jiang waited in the car, knowing that he was on his own. He was not suitable for such an occasion, and he did not want to learn some special knowledge. With Han Tiesheng here, he had learned it a long time ago on similar occasions, picked it up again, and It was not difficult. As soon as he followed Wei Tao in, Han Tiesheng saw the same kind of people. There were three people sitting on chairs in the corner next to the door that attracted many "big names in the film and television industry" backstage.
That's someone like him.
Wei Tao didn't pass through the artists' rest area. He was in the passage on the other side. However, the eyes on the other side were peeking at this side. There were many people who knew him. When they saw him walking into the door, their eyes They were all shining, looking at each other with surprise in their eyes.
I don’t know why, it’s a subconscious physical reaction. He walked into that door. There are so many big names in the film and television industry, but not everyone is qualified to get in. Today's protagonist, the director in charge of filming the movie, didn't get in either.
There are many stars participating in this movie, and since it is a special subject, there are quite a few stars who took the initiative to ask for an invitation. The number of celebrities on the red carpet at the premiere is more lively than that of major film festivals. Even celebrities who value their status at such a scene will pay attention to restraint and will not deliberately ask for red carpet rankings. Those with a little emotional intelligence will deliberately Give in, I don’t want to be extra provocative on such an occasion.
Wei Tao entered the room, and Han Tiesheng looked back, walked towards the corner, and sat down beside the three people. He didn't straighten his back intentionally, he was very relaxed. If it weren't for the big baby Damimi paying attention to him, I didn't even realize there were three people sitting in the corner.
If it were Damimi and Dabaobao who knew Wei Tao before, they might stand up and come over to say hello.
As Wei Tao's personal bodyguard, Han Tiesheng's recognition has long prevented him from getting entangled with the fact that his boss has a lot of women around him.
As long as the boss doesn't get married once or twice, he treats them as the boss's wife. Of course he knows these two popular celebrities. In private, sometimes he picks one of them up and goes to the hotel where the boss is staying.
Being followed and secretly photographed, unless the distance was very far, it would be impossible to avoid Han Tiesheng.
The two of them had had the thought of standing up to say hello, but it was fleeting. They had already understood one thing. The position of a high-ranking official is won through strength, not through small actions.
In the past, they may have had a feeling in their hearts that I would be suppressed by others because I had no background or resources. If I didn't work like this, I probably wouldn't have any chance at all.
Not anymore. Opportunities abound, and there is no need to fight for them. If they are suitable for themselves, they should be confident that they can perform well, bring funds into the group, and audition normally to conquer the director. With their reputation, it is not easy to get them.
Da Baobao quickly stood up and greeted the person who came over to meet her eyes, and greeted her humbly.
Between people, in such a crowded place, if the eyes of each other are met, whether they are directed at me or looking for me, there will be a magnetic connection between each other in an instant. If not, if you see it, you will slightly Smiling and nodding, it was like saying hello from afar.
"Hello, Brother Hua."
"haven't seen you for a long time."
On today's occasion, no one would be surprised that Liu Dehua and Dabao were standing together. They would not even think too much about Liu Dehua walking over. They would only think about it if they didn't walk over.
What movie premiere is today?
The two played the legendary historical figures Cai E and Xiao Fengxian in the play. The media started to make headlines even if they did not walk on the red carpet together.
[Da Baobei’s acting skills are not good enough, and Liu Tianwang was angry in the opposite scenes. After filming, he made harsh words and refused to cooperate. 】
The red carpet here is not one where everyone walks slowly and takes pictures. Many people walk in a hurry. Most of them pass by at a normal speed. Facing the media cameras, they turn around and wave. Except for some female artists or young artists, almost no one stands still. The steps were taken by the media, so it was normal for the two of them not to walk on the red carpet together. They came directly from the hotel, got off the car and walked in directly.
Liu Tianwang shook hands with the artists who stood up around him again. With his qualifications and status, Brother Chao, Da Hei Niu and others sitting next to Da Baobao at this moment all bowed and shook hands with the humble smiles of juniors on their faces.
The eldest baby has been learning a lot of things for a long time, including the sophistication of human nature. If the King of Heaven comes over to her, if she pretends to be very stylish and gives the impression that the King of Heaven has come specifically to find me, that would be silly. The things you gain are definitely not as much as what you lose.
"Brother Hua, sit down and take a rest." Dabaobao took the initiative to turn aside and give up his seat so that the king could take his seat.
The king took the opportunity to sit down, and Big Baby didn't have to worry about running out of room. The big black cow and others next to him had already naturally moved one by one to make way for a chair.
For whom he came and for whom he sat down, the big baby was not yet confident that this was his own glory. He could tell with a glance that King Liu Tian just glanced at the door.
Wei Taoke just walked in a minute ago.
I feel a little complacent in my heart. Compared with the superficial tea coffee, this is the real tea coffee in front of me.
"Brother Hua, I have a friend who is a loyal movie fan of yours..." As he said that, Dabaobao raised his head and glanced around.
In fact, she didn't want the King of Heaven to speak first. Such a small favor that prevented the other party from having to speak first would be considered a reward. He must have come here to inquire about some information. If he spoke first, he would be able to find a way to avoid embarrassment due to his seniority and status, but there was no way he could find a topic to talk about first.
During the filming of "The Great Cause of the Founding of the Party", Zhu Xichun was naturally not qualified to film, but for this premiere, he has been the most popular recently, so of course there was an invitation for him. It was not only for him, but also an affirmation of Wei Tao's layout in the entertainment industry.
Da Baobei saw Zhu Xichun, and she guessed in her mind that Liu Tianwang's visit must be related to Wei Tao. He wanted to find out what news was inside that door today, or was he interested in the movie in the company's new plan, or It's something else. It always needs a starting point. Zhu Xichun happens to be nearby, so he can organize a small-scale chat session.
Zhu Xichun and Chao Ge Da Hei Niu are both familiar with each other, so when Liu Tianwang stood up politely and shook hands with Zhu Xichun who came over, the people around him all stood up and no longer sat, but stood in a circle chat.
The excessiveness that led to standing in a circle was also very natural. Brother Chao came closer and reached out to squeeze Zhu Xichun's arm: "He's strong again."
Liu Tianwang also smiled and said: "In front of you, I feel so small. I feel that when I used to shoot big guys, I wore fake muscles and they were not as strong as you are now."
Zhu Xichun was very shy. When Liu Tianwang also pinched his arm and stood beside him to compare, his face turned red instantly. How could a super brother with a Sheniu physique let go of such an opportunity? Big baby is even more He covered his mouth and smiled sweetly: "Brother Hua, he is a fan of yours. I heard Mr. Wei tell me that when he was a child, there were posters of you on the walls of his house."
Zhu Xichun did not conceal the state of an excited little fan, without any pretense or coquettishness. He saw Liu Tianwang beaming with joy. He knew very well what a true fan looked like. He quickly stepped forward and stood next to Zhu Xichun with his figure. , the outline has become smaller, but the aura is still two meters tall and crushes Zhu Xichun.
In the waiting area, there were only a few female artists who brought assistants in to help with mobile phones and other things. Those were also contestants whose pretentious posture was worrying. The eldest baby has learned to be smart. She doesn’t bring her assistant or her mobile phone. The assistant and bodyguard have already made arrangements. The premiere event is over and the show is over. When the time comes, they can just come in as soon as possible. After saying hello, she will be at the original place. The ground doesn't move, waiting for someone to pick it up.
Some male artists put their mobile phones in their pockets. Brother Chao from Sheniu teased Zhu Xichun and shook the phone in his hand: "Brother Dong, do you want to take a photo with your idol?"
Dabaobao reacted quickly: "Brother Dong, do you want to make a contrast, something cute?"
Zhu Xichun knelt down and, as a tall man, leaned against Liu Tianwang deliberately and lovingly. Brother Chao stopped teasing him with his cell phone and quickly took pictures.
"Brother Dong, I can't help but invite you to dinner tonight, otherwise the image of this most fierce and ruthless man on the screen will be completely ruined."
At a celebrity gathering backstage, three or two people chatting quietly are old acquaintances and old friends. When they meet, they greet each other warmly and sincerely, and give each other bright smiles. This is a greeting between acquaintances and mutual respect.
It is rare for a small circle of old acquaintances to have a lively conversation. Seeing Liu Tianwang chatting with people like Running Man very speculatively, many people thought, is this the first variety show of Liu Tianwang restarted after many years?
Thanks to Niuma Entertainment for the reward!
