Chapter 79: Start-up, minor repairs (seeking recommendation votes)
"A Romance Across the World" withdrew from the Spring Festival schedule early.
On February 4, "A Romance Across the World" grossed 180 million yuan on its first day.
On February 5, "A Romance Across the World" grossed 60 million yuan in a single day.
On February 6, "A Romance Across the World" grossed 23 million yuan in a single day.
It can be said that on the 6th, "Cross-Border Love" had actually withdrawn from the competition for the Spring Festival period, and the box office revenue on the 7th and 8th combined was less than 10 million.
Therefore, the final box office of "Cross-border Love" will stop at 300 million, and it is obviously impossible to reach 300 million.
How cruel is the Spring Festival period?
Just watch "Cross-border Love" and you will know.
If it’s even the slightest bit disappointing, I’ll PASS it immediately.
What's more, the reputation of "Cross-border Love" collapsed, and Guo Han's series of suicidal behaviors ultimately made the film's box office stop at 300 million yuan.
For other ordinary movies, a box office of nearly 300 million is not a small amount. However, for a movie aimed at the Spring Festival, with publicity and promotion costs exceeding 50 million and a target of 3 billion, such a box office can be said to be a flop.
The box office and word of mouth were a flop.
But publicity still needs to be done.
Xiaoma Video is still working hard on the promotion of the film, and Guo Han even called on everyone on social platforms not to let such a good movie fail.
Unfortunately, it was useless.
Word of mouth is everything.
Pity propaganda is useless.
The hype-style propaganda is equally useless.
A bad movie is a bad movie, and the audience will vote with their money.
What's more, Guo Han had previously mocked the audience for not being worthy of watching such a good movie.
This almost made many people who originally wanted to support the movie give up.
In the past two days, film critics have begun to change their tone.
On Douhu, some people began to analyze why "Cross-Border Love" flopped.
Anyway, it’s quite lively.
Guo Han now has some understanding of what it feels like to fail.
Guo Han once said in an interview: "I never knew what failure was like. I hope to experience it in the future."
Many people said about this interview: "Guo Han is still the best at showing off."
And now some people are saying, 'How does it feel to fail?'
how? ?
It smells so good...a few handfuls.
Yu Xiaoshu no longer pays attention to "A Romance Across the World", the debates about other movies in the Spring Festival, or even the continued pessimism about "The Undocumented Crime".
He didn't even look at it again.
It's useless.
Facts speak louder than words.
In the past two days, Yu Xiaoshu has made detailed additions to the scripts of the first three episodes of "The Undocumented Crime", and some patches have also been made. Then yesterday afternoon, all the actors gathered, and the "The Undocumented Crime" crew held its first script seminar.
At the meeting, screenwriter Yu Xiaoshu spoke first. He said that it was not easy for everyone to come to the crew before the Chinese New Year, and everyone had the same goal, which was to film "The Undocumented Crime" well.
For this reason, Yu Xiaoshu hopes that every actor will do their best and if anyone fails, then don't blame him as the screenwriter for being rude.
Producer Li Jia, who was standing by, praised Yu Xiaoshu as he finished speaking, "Teacher Yu is right. I agree."
Zhang Yi, who was a step slower, said hurriedly: "Teacher Yu is right."
MMP.
Zhang Yi didn't realize that Li Jia was actually better at licking than himself. He found that he had met his match.
The three big guys of the crew, the screenwriter, the director, and the producer all noticed the speech, but it was obvious that everything revolved around Yu Xiaoshu.
Not to mention that Yu Xiaoshu also serves as the producer.
This is a treatment that I have never received in the crew of "I Am Yu Huanshui".
Here.
Yu Xiaoshu is the absolute authority.
I have finished speaking.
Who agrees?
Who is against it?
In the end, actors Lin Feiyang, Bao Nan, Bian Feng, Wang Chao and others all expressed that they had no objections.
Then, the actors discussed their roles.
Yesterday, when everyone reviewed today's scenes, we discussed today's shooting schedule, the shooting order according to the location arrangements, the shooting order according to the script, and so on.
There is also the shooting sequence of key scenes.
There is no need for Yu Xiaoshu to ask too much about these.
He is the screenwriter and has the final say on the script, but the schedule and shooting sequence are finalized by producer Li Jia and director Zhang Yi.
Today, February 9th, at 9:10 am, "The Undocumented Crime" started filming in a low-key manner in Ice City.
There were no other outsiders at the scene except the crew members.
Turning on the computer and worshiping the gods are essential.
At 10 o'clock, the shooting officially began.
"The Undocumented, scene 3, shot 1, take 1."
The stagehand holding the storyboard suddenly made a decision.
Aunt Aike.
"Seventy thousand."
"Little Chicken."
"Sister Hua, why don't we just forget about it today?"
"What do you mean by that? Let's play cards."
…
Today's play is a group play.
Taken at the ICAO airport.
The main thing is that after Sun Hongyun's death, Captain Lin Qi brought people to find Sun Hongyun's wife Li Hua for a brief interrogation.
After arriving at the internal combustion airport, Li Hua, known as Sister Hua in the world, was playing mahjong.
"No."
Li Hua said to Lin Qi while smoking and sorting out his cards, "Hey, hit."
"Has he had a conflict with anyone recently? Or does he have any enemies?"
Lynch continued.
"I don't know. How would I know about his little shit?"
Li Hua took a puff of cigarette and said lightly.
…
Behind the camera, Yu Xiaoshu frowned slightly.
Because he found that the extras were a little off, not only were they unnatural, but they were also always looking towards the camera.
If Sun Hei were here, he would have probably yelled at them to stop scolding him.
After all, Sun Hei is a detail-oriented person.
But Yu Xiaoshu found that Zhang Yi had no intention of stopping at all.
It was not until this shot that Sister Hua heard Lin Qi hear Zhu Huiru overturn the table that she called for a stop.
“Everyone’s performance was good, but it was still a little lacking.”
Zhang Yi stood up and said to the woman who played Sister Hua with a smile, "You performed well, but you need to be more impatient. When you hear Zhu Huiru's name, you need to pause the mahjong in your hand for a moment before flipping the table."
The woman hurriedly said, "Director, I understand."
"You guys are not bad. None of you have acted before, but you are not at all stage-frightened. That's good. Just treat this as normal. Don't look at the camera over here. Forget about us and immerse yourself in this. If you three are playing mahjong, you should think about playing mahjong. You three should eat on the side."
Zhang Yi continued to explain the play to the extras.
There are quite a few differences between the web drama and the novel adaptation of the original work.
First of all, in the novel, Sun Hongyun and Zhu Huiru have no relationship, and Zhu Huiru is not a mistress. She just runs a small restaurant with her brother.
Secondly, the person who witnessed Luo Wen in the novel was not Huangmao, but a wretched man, an extremely wretched man.
This obscene man often likes to molest women, and his way of molesting women is very special. He holds women hostage and then masturbates himself.
That's right.
He never raped women, nor did he let women masturbate for him. He masturbated himself.
Just for fun.
This wretched man actually has a formal job and a wife. He does this purely to vent his unhappiness.
In his words, pursue excitement and let yourself go.
Anyway, I didn't rape women.
You can't convict me.
This character is also quite realistic. In real life, many of those who often molest women have wives.
It is understandable that Yu Xiaoshu was cut off along this line.
After all, on the one hand, it is for the sake of harmony, and on the other hand, using yellow hair to connect them can speed up the rhythm.
Yu Xiaoshu also added this character into the script.
But he doesn't have many scenes, and the focus is still on Huangmao.
He didn't want to disrupt the overall rhythm of the web drama.
Apart from this, there are no major changes in other scenes.
The main purpose of shooting the first scene at the internal combustion engine factory today was to familiarize ourselves with the situation. Except for Wu Lan, the others present were either amateurs or extras, but everyone was quite dedicated.
This scene is just a warm-up.
The real highlight is at night.
In the afternoon, we first filmed the daytime scenes of Jiang Qiao.
Li Jia beat up a bunch of old men and women who were boxing in the park, and each of them was paid 10 yuan to make a cameo appearance.
Money, old men, old women and other people don't care.
10 bucks? ?
What can you buy to eat?
Maximum 5 skewers of fish tofu.
Everyone just wants to try something new.
Filming a web drama.
How fresh.
At night, the main event began.
Today's scene is the key scene of "The Undocumented Crime".
Without this scene, there would be no such thing as the so-called "undocumented crime".
Huangmao deceived Zhu Huiru by saying that he had an appointment with Sister Hua to negotiate by the river, but in fact he just wanted to sleep with Zhu Huiru. Guo Yu and Zhu Huiru who came over accidentally killed Huangmao.
When the two were at a loss, the great god Luo Wen appeared.
In fact, in the original novel, Luo Wen is a real master, and he even created an undocumented crime. Even Yan Liang had no way to deal with him, and in the end Luo Wen took the initiative to stand up because of Zhu Fulai's accident.
Otherwise, Yan Liang would have no way out at all, and more importantly, the police would have no way out either.
Let’s talk about this scene again.
This plot is the most controversial one in the web drama.
Because most people think this is not self-defense?
What's more, Guo Yu, you are a trainee lawyer, don't you understand? ?
In the novel, Guo Yu is a programmer, and he is honest and simple, so he may not understand what self-defense is. He even wants to surrender himself on behalf of Zhu Huiru.
Because in the novel, Guo Yu has a crush on Zhu Huiru.
But in the web drama, Guo Yu is a trainee lawyer, so how could he not understand? ?
So Yu Xiaoshu chose to fix this BUG and he decided to film it according to the original novel.
Huangmao's scenes will be filmed later.
First, film the scene after Guo Yu and Zhu Huiru kill Huang Mao.
"Is everything clear?"
Zhang Yi waved his hand and said, "All departments should prepare, and we should try to get it through."
"The Undocumented, Scene 8, Shot 5, Take 2."
The venue staff made the final decision.
Aunt Aike.
