Chapter 394 Director Zhou shocked the entire industry, "Flower Bone" set records one after
In fact, the filming of "Dying to Survive" was generally very simple.
Especially for Huang Bo, Zhou Yiwei and other acting talents.
After all, this is a genuine feature film, and most of the scenes involved in the film are interior scenes.
There aren't many serious outdoor scenes at all.
The size is really small.
This is also the reason why Zhou Qing dared to say that the filming could be completed in two months.
In addition to Huang Bo, the leading actor, or to be more precise, the main cast headed by Huang Bo, are all excellent.
There were not many NGs, which made the overall shooting progress as smooth as if it was lubricated.
"Come on, come on, touch up Huang Bo's makeup."
"Wang Chuanjun, how are you, are you ready?"
After the first shot was completed, the makeup artist quickly came forward to touch up Huang Bo's makeup, and everyone else was busy with their own work.
Zhou Qing came to Wang Chuanjun who was studying the script.
According to the principle of concentrated shooting of the same scene, Wang Chuanjun will make a brilliant appearance in the next shot.
This patient with chronic myeloid leukemia was brought here by Huang Bo’s old neighbor, who wanted Huang Bo to help him smuggle generic drugs.
Huang Bo's fate was changed unknowingly.
"I'm fine, Director Zhou!"
Wang Chuanjun put down the script and immediately patted his chest with confidence in front of Zhou Qing.
There is such a surge of energy in his whole body.
Wang Chuanjun actually knew that he faced a lot of doubts when he was chosen by Director Zhou.
Wang Chuanjun actually understands this. After all, he started out as a sitcom actor, and that stuff is really at the bottom of the contempt chain.
So while Wang Chuanjun was grateful to Zhou Qing, he was also secretly shouting in his heart that he must let everyone see his acting skills!
"Okay, get ready, the next shot will start soon."
Wang Chuanjun nodded heavily.
When all departments were ready and Zhou Qing shouted "start", he immediately put in 120% of his effort.
I started shooting my first shot.
"Here, have an orange."
In front of the camera, Wang Chuanjun put an orange in front of Huang Bo with a flattering look on his face.
Huang Bo, who was smoking, couldn't help but sneer: "Don't try that on me. You know that smuggling drugs will result in a sentence, right?"
"It won't happen."
Wang Chuanjun waved his hands repeatedly.
"What do you mean? Besides, you're only going to give 30,000 yuan for such a big risk?"
Taoist Huang Bo was negotiating with Wang Chuanjun in an extremely calm manner.
“But this is a business opportunity.”
Wang Chuanjun walked up to Huang Bo and argued, "Boss, domestic genuine medicine costs more than 30,000 yuan a bottle, while pirated medicine only costs 2,000 yuan, but the effect is the same!"
"The effect is the same, but the price is twenty times different?"
Huang Bo glared at Wang Chuanjun, as if to tell him to keep trying to fool people.
"Really, boss. I asked someone to test it. I am also a patient. If I could afford it, I would go there myself."
Wang Chuanjun swore a solemn oath in front of Huang Bo.
"Crack!"
"Pass!"
Zhou Qing, who was behind the monitor, couldn't help but reveal a satisfied smile on his face.
"Wu Jing's self-directed and self-acted military action movie "Wolf Warrior" has been approved. Following "Unforgiven 2", Wu Jing has brought another new work."
"Zhou Qing Pictures has launched a new film, Wolf Warriors. Director Wu Jing has been working hard for two years to prepare for it."
"Wolf Warriors" has officially started filming, and Wu Jing called this film the most attentive work in his career."
At the end of May, the film "Wolf Warrior" that Wu Jing was preparing was exposed by the media, which attracted great attention in the circle.
Speaking of Wu Jing at the moment, he is definitely one of the top figures in the Chinese entertainment industry.
There's even a hint of legend about it.
It was a complete failure from the beginning, a double failure of both acting and directing.
When Zhou Qing Pictures first signed him and even handed over the director's baton for "The Man from Nowhere", there was a lot of doubt in the industry.
Many people were waiting to see Wu Jing and Zhou Qing make a fool of themselves.
Who would have thought that when the movie was released, "The Man from Lone Star" would have grossed 2.68 million yuan at the box office, which slapped many people in the face.
Wu Jing's "double failure" was a great success and he completely turned things around.
This was followed by two subsequent "No Mercy" films, each of which was a huge hit, which established Wu Jing's status in the industry.
This made Wu Jing a well-known and heavyweight director in the circle.
Under such circumstances, how could Wu Jing's relaunch of "Wolf Warrior" not attract attention?
Just the name "Wolf Warrior" sounds like the same type of film that Wu Jing shot before.
Even the configuration is the same, it was all directed and acted by Wu Jing himself.
Wu Jing’s fans are very much looking forward to it.
Fans of this type of film are also looking forward to it.
Therefore, "Wolf Warrior" is different from the original time and space where it was not favored at the beginning but made a comeback after its release.
At this time, "Wolf Warrior" attracted much attention from the very beginning.
It is generally believed in the entire industry that this will definitely be another hit!
In the original time and space, when Wu Jing was filming "Wolf Warrior", he actually contacted many celebrities hoping that they would join.
But they were all ruthlessly rejected.
But now?
There are countless actors in the circle who are eager to have a role in "Wolf Warrior".
It’s just a pity that Wu Jing always plays the leading role in every film he directs, without any exception!
No matter who it is, they are destined to have no chance.
"Attention all units!"
"Clear the venue!"
The filming of "Dying to Survive" is proceeding in an orderly manner.
However, the current filming is all taking place in the scene inside Cheng Yong's magic oil shop.
Cheng Yong initially rejected Wang Chuanjun because he was afraid of taking risks and had no intention of smuggling generic drugs.
But reality gave Cheng Yong a heavy blow.
The burden of life overwhelmed him as he had a seriously ill old father and could not afford the rent.
Cheng Yong finally took that step, and soon became very successful, with sales of smuggled drugs booming.
But who would have thought that during this period he encountered an accident, which led to a conflict with the fake drug dealer Zhang Changlin.
What we are going to shoot now is the scene where Zhang Changlin comes to the door.
"I was wondering why you were ruining my business. It turns out we are in the same business."
Zhang Changlin, wearing a cheap suit, confidently took out a bottle of generic drugs smuggled by Cheng Yong.
He put it on the coffee table with a bang, then crossed his legs arrogantly, as if he had Cheng Yong defeated.
Cheng Yong's expression changed subconsciously, and it was obvious that he felt guilty.
But she still insisted in front of Zhang Changlin: "Who is in the same industry as you?"
"Still pretending?"
Zhang Changlin sneered, but quickly put away his smile. "Okay, I won't waste my time talking to you. I've calculated it for you. If you sell like this, you can only make about a million a year."
"How about you give me the channel for this drug and I'll pay you for two years?"
There was a hint of oppression in Zhang Changlin's words, and the intimidation was mixed with inducement.
Wang Yanhui is definitely a treasure actor. His acting skills are impeccable. Frankly speaking, he is no worse than Huang Bo.
Although he has never been famous and can only play supporting roles in major movies, sometimes he can't even get a supporting role and can only play a minor role.
But no matter what kind of role it is, Wang Yanhui can bring it to life.
Zhou Qing prefers to use such actors.
Take the current scene for example, the collision between Huang Bo and Wang Yanhui has brought out the best in each other.
It presents the effect that one plus one is greater than two.
This is what good actors are like, they can complement each other.
"Crack!"
"Pass!"
Zhou Qing couldn't find any fault with it at all and nodded with satisfaction.
"Go Away Tumor King" directed by Lu Yang and starring Zhu Yawen set off the summer season, earning 4046 million at the box office on the first day of release!"
"Zhu Yawen once again brought a hit, "Go Away Tumor King", the first day box office reached 4046 million!"
"The fairy tale drama "The Journey of Flower" starring Zhao Liying has become a hit, setting a new record of 3.89 weekly broadcasts for TV dramas!"
"The Journey of Flower broke many records when it was first aired, and the most popular TV series in 15 years was born."
On June 6, the movie "Go Away Tumor" was released after more than a month of preheating, and the results can be said to be extremely gratifying.
On the day of its release, it earned over 4000 million at the box office.
Everyone in the industry couldn't help but sigh in admiration, saying it was worthy of being Zhou Qing Pictures.
Even a story about fighting cancer can be made into such a hit, this strength is really hard to deny.
Especially those film and television companies that Tang Juan had contacted before but turned him down, they slapped their thighs in frustration, regretting it so much that their intestines turned green.
Can you believe that a script like "Go Away! Tumor" actually went viral?
After they read it, they concluded that the script did not suit the market and that filming it would be a waste of time and would definitely lose money.
But when they turned around, Zhou Qing Pictures took a fancy to the script that they disliked.
Not even any modifications were made!
As a result, it was that script that became such a huge hit at the box office?
Regret!
I regret it so much!
So Director Zhou Qing’s vision is really too sharp.
None of them could see the commercial value of the same script, but Director Zhou Qing did.
Facts have once again proved that Director Zhou Qing's vision is indeed unquestionable.
"Go Away Tumor" has become a huge hit!
This is fine if it is a big hit, but the reputation of "Go Away Tumor" is also very good.
"It's the best movie I've seen this year!"
“Not bitter or hateful, not heavy or depressing, but full of positive energy!”
“All the other directors who shoot films about patients should learn from Director Lu!”
"I laughed my ass off at the beginning, and cried my ass off at the end. I was moved by Xiong Dun's positive and optimistic attitude!"
Netizens gave extremely high praise and were not stingy with their praise.
In short, the release of Go Away Tumor can be summed up in one sentence: it was both a critical and commercial success.
It can be called the first domestic blockbuster movie of this summer season.
Another one is "The Journey of Flower" starring Zhao Liying, which also started airing a week ago.
The result can be described in two words: explosive.
The performance of "Go Away Tumor" is much more explosive.
It wouldn't even be an exaggeration to call it a king bomb.
Its ratings directly broke the record of weekly TV dramas in mainland China, and it is the only TV drama with a weekly rating of over 10 in the past 2 years.
In other words, the ratings of all weekly Chinese-language TV dramas in the past 10 years have never exceeded 2.
They are all around 1.10.
But Hua Qiangu not only broke 2, but also reached 3.89 in one fell swoop!
This shows what?
The ratings of "The Journey of Flower" are at least twice that of other weekly dramas, and may even be three times!
What a huge gap this is?
Just from the ratings, we can see how popular "The Journey of Flower" is.
So what about other data of “The Journey of Flower”?
Just as popular, extremely popular.
According to statistics, the real-time ratings of "The Journey of Flower" exceeded 50%. What does this mean?
That is to say, at that time, one out of every two television sets was playing "The Journey of Flower".
In addition, "The Journey of Flower" is also the first TV series to have exceeded 200 billion online broadcasts, with a single-day online broadcast volume even exceeding 4 million, ranking first on the TVCat popularity list.
This is no longer just ordinary fire.
Instead, they are extremely angry, they do whatever they want, and they are unreasonable.
It can be called a phenomenal, god-level TV series.
Zhao Liying, who was already a top-tier celebrity, reached the peak of her career through the drama "The Journey of Flower".
He became a hot new star in the entire TV drama industry that everyone had to stay away from.
"Isn't Zhou Qing Pictures so awesome? They produce such a hit every time they release a film."
"Yeah, luckily Director Zhou has no intention of making a TV series, otherwise the others would have nothing to eat."
"Director Zhou is really exaggerating. How could The Journey of Flower become so popular?"
Zhou Qing Pictures, the main controller of "The Journey of Flower", instantly became the most popular guy in the circle.
Especially in the TV drama circle, it has stimulated the hearts of many people.
Many people in the TV drama circle couldn't hold their breath, and the entire circle was deeply shocked.
Although Zhou Qing Pictures has not produced many TV series, all of them are big hits without exception.
But isn’t “The Journey of Flower” a bit too explosive?
Zhou Qing Pictures didn’t touch any TV dramas for 4 years after “Startling by Each Step”, but when it did, it was an immediate success.
It makes those professionals who make TV dramas seem like trash!
This is really unbearable.
Just like a popular joke on the Internet, those who make TV dramas really have to thank Zhou Qing for not filming.
Fortunately, Director Zhou is a film director and his work focus is entirely on movies.
Otherwise, everyone in the TV drama industry would really have no way out.
They will be like those people in the film industry, always living in fear of being dominated by Director Zhou.
"Give me a lighting board. Don't you see that the brightness is not enough?"
"Old Chen, when the camera comes in from here, you need to be quick, okay?"
"Is Lao Huang's makeup done?"
On the set of "Dying to Survive", director Zhou Qing was as powerful as ever.
There were dozens of people in the entire crew, all busy inside and outside under Zhou Qing's command.
It operates like a precision instrument.
Now all the scenes in Cheng Yong's magic oil shop have been filmed, and Zhou Qing has already started filming other interior scenes.
The next scene to be filmed is the one where Huang Bo and Wang Chuanjun discuss how to sell medicine.
Although the generic drugs sold well later, when Cheng Yonggang smuggled the drugs in, he was actually unable to sell them at all.
It was not until Wang Chuanjun found Sihui and asked Sihui to promote the idea among the patients that things started to go well. (End of this chapter)
