Chapter 88 Du Qifeng's Waterloo

"The Big Event" is a participant in the Cannes Film Festival. After Du Qifeng sent "The Big Event" to Cannes for the exhibition, he gained a good reputation. Even the Cannes Film Excerpts Organizing Committee has asked "The Big Event" many times why he did not participate in the competition since he had chosen to send the movie to the exhibition. Du Qifeng and Galaxy Image answered that the film was only finished in the end of April, and the editing and other work had not yet been started, so he really could not match the participation time of the Cannes Film Festival.

What about it in fact?

I'm afraid only Du Qifeng knows the reason!

In order to win the box office, Galaxy Image broke up the matter with Huayi in a black and white way. At this critical moment, it sent the video to Cannes to participate. Once the other party stumbling, can they bear it? The lineup and total investment of "The Big Event" were really invested in HK$25 million. If this was banned in the mainland, Du Qifeng would really cry.

Among the reasons why "The Devils Are Coming" was banned, there is a script that has not been reported, and the plot has not been modified according to the suggestions given by the radio and television. Galaxy's "The Big Event" can pass the review without cutting it this time, and they have already passed the review. During the same period as Huayi, Du Qifeng would never dare to take risks to participate in the competition.

The media storm began on the first day of the premiere of "The Big Event". In order to make Du Qifeng win the ring, a group of media outlets in Xiangjiang started to hype up randomly, whether the movie was so good or not, the reputation of Cannes was so popular, and the box office on the first day was as high as HK$900,000. In short, what was good and what was encouraged to brag.

During this period, Shao Yingxiong stayed at home to take care of his children and read the news without moving. He was leisurely like an old man, extremely stable.

"The Big Event" cannot be won, Shao Yingxiong has a clear idea!

At the beginning, Wei Jiahui didn't understand this very well. But when the schedule came out, Wei Jiahui didn't even complain to Hua Yi because the defeat in "The Big Incident" was decided.

As we all know, in 2004, a black fog storm occurred in Xiangjiang and Yuezhou. The direct impact of this natural scene on the film industry was the release of "The Day Afternoon". The "The Day Afternoon" which landed in Xiangjiang and the mainland began to premiere on June 1. The propaganda even put the slogan "The Strongest Disaster Movie in History" to avoid the collision with "The Day Afternoon". "The Big Event" put the schedule on June 10. The entire Galaxy Company believes that ten days are enough to make people forget "The Day Afternoon" and think of "The Day Afternoon" as the locally produced "The Big Event", but what's the result?

They watched "The Day After Ahead" but ignored another epic masterpiece!

A beautiful backlash in "Troy" landed on both sides of the Taiwan Strait and the Taiwan Strait in the early morning of June 9!!!

"Troy", which invested $180 million, helped Shao Yingxiong give "Big Event" a beautiful slap. The entire Hong Kong Jiang helped Du Qifeng promote "Big Event" to surpass "Big Event" with a box office of HK$900,000 on the first day of HK$580,000 to win a tough battle. Next, "Troy"'s strong look made "Big Event" have no other way except to snatch the teeth into the stomach!

Du Qifeng was too memorable. Even if he wanted to put the schedule forward, he couldn't do it. Because there was "Shrek 2" that was popular among all young and old friends in front of "The Day Afternoon". In the end, "The Big Event" could only survive in the gap between "The Day Afternoon" and "Troy", just like a wife and a mother's splinter, and she had to bear it even if she didn't.

On June 18, the results of "The Big Event" were released for the week. The box office of Xiangjiang squeezed out 4 million in a hard struggle, and the box office in the mainland was less than 3 million.

Once this set of data comes out, there is no need for Shao Yingxiong to stand out and slap in the face. The media that Xiangjiang and mainland China who are promoting Du Qifeng are all shut up. What else can I say? It’s embarrassing!

In the end, "The Big Event" achieved a box office of 8 million in Hong Kong and a box office of 4 million in mainland China throughout the entire period. Not to mention "The Day Afternoon" and "Troy", even "The Savage Senior Sister" released at the same time exceeded "The Big Event". Galaxy won a reputation in Cannes, and the movies produced by rumors were at the bottom.

From Shao Yingxiong's perspective, "The Big Event" is a good movie. Whether it is the killer and the big thief who eat at the same table or the killer robs the robbers in the finale, the ending of the robbers killing for the killer is very innovative. But there is a fact that anyone has to admit that the police and gangster gunfight films, Xiangjiang and the people of mainland China have been watching for twenty years. Even if you are filming new ideas, the scenes of street fighting in the corridors are still the same as those of "Full-time Killer"? Richie Richie encounters Chen Huilin's restraint on the bus, or is it similar to Andy Lau and Meng Jiahui in "Dark War"?

Then why don’t you watch "The Day Afternoon"?

At least high-tech!

Then why not watch "Troy"?

It's at least an epic masterpiece? The illusioned girl can still see Pitt's appearance!

Want to defeat Hollywood blockbusters with old bottles of new wine? I'm afraid this is not enough.

"Mr. Wang, I, Shao Yingxiong."

When Shao Yingxiong was completely sunk in "The Big Event", he called Wang Zhongjun: "Is it still time for "Accident" to change the schedule now?"

"What's going on? Didn't it be decided half a year in advance? Why did you think of changing the schedule?"

"Mr. Wang, I've been entangled with my child recently and I don't have much time to promote it? Now Yuanyuan has recovered and I can promote it too. We can't just put "Accident" on without publicity, right? Help, please discuss with all the theater ss to help make changes on August 22."

Shao Yingxiong is so bad!

Because he disagrees when the schedule is set in July!

At that time, Shao Yingxiong was not speaking out, because he had no experience in the box office market, and because he didn't believe that Du Qifeng's name could not even hear the schedule of "Accident", so he set up a special set. Don't forget that "Accident" was filmed first than "The Big Event", and there was only one hype tool for both sides, so who must be released first will take advantage of it. All fools know this.

Huayi set the schedule in July to help Shao Yingxiong. They set the schedule in July to force Du Qifeng to set the schedule in June. After all, the movie "The Big Event" was only filmed in April, and it took two months to shoot.

So, Shao Yingxiong said that Du Qifeng was sure to lose. He knew that Du Qifeng could not win "The Day Afternoon" and "Troy" at all!!

Even if Du Qifeng is fiercely treating the editing as a donkey, he will finish the film in advance and set the schedule for May. There is also a giant bomb in front of "The Day Afternoon" "Shrek 2" waiting. You, Du Qifeng, either choose to let "Accident" be released first, or choose to die, you can choose it yourself!

It is obvious that Du Qifeng is a person with a tough temper. When he gets angry, he chooses to die.

When "The Big Incident" died, Shao Yingxiong began to get busy. He changed the promotional video and replaced the release time of the Beijing subway and bus stops. He took the crew to various places for entertainment programs to promote. He was as busy as the top.

The most interesting thing is the promotional video of "Accident", which is very tricky. When the promotional video was played in the Xiangnantai Ace variety show, the lights were turned off, and the horror atmosphere in the darkness was immediately presented.

A somewhat vast voice appeared: "Do you believe that all the accidents in this world are real?"

After this ancient sound came out, a white font was produced on the screen as the sound was heard. At that moment, it was quiet for three seconds...

...

...

...

bump!!!!!

A drum sound came, and a dazzling shot quickly appeared on the screen. The camera switch was so fast that it was so fast that it was impossible to see what the picture was. When the picture was frozen, a four-person group led by Shao Yingxiong sat on the sofa in a room. There was a terrain sand table on the coffee table in front of them. Fu Biao asked lightly, "How can he die?"

Suspense comes one after another!

The first person killed appeared. When he drove the car from the crowded street into the alley, he was blocked by a banner. The originally impatient car owner grabbed the banner and tried hard to vent his anger. At the moment, a wire rope used to fix it suddenly broke...

Bang!

The pulsation of the wire rope shattered the windows on the second floor. The entire shot was recorded with a slow motion, until the glass upstairs was broken and the sunlight fell... The next shot was the owner looking up at the upstairs.

puff!

The screen became dark, and the sound of sharp weapons piercing into the body appeared. The owner was lying on the ground and twitching constantly, and blood flowed from the ground.

Shao Yingxiong followed the crowd around the owner, watching him twitch and die.

The promotional video did not release the moment the car owner was killed, nor did it explain why he was killed. At the beginning, Fu Biao asked, "How can he die?", and then, the person died.

"ah!!!"

At the second the promotional video ended, a cinema appeared in the picture. A young couple was watching a movie in the cinema. When the girl watched a murder scene on the screen, she got into a man's arms. When the man hugged his beautiful girlfriend...

An old voice appeared again: "On August 22, "Accident" will meet you on Valentine's Day in the Chinese Valentine's Day. Even he can kiss the girl he likes in this movie. What are you waiting for?"

The man in the cinema turned around now, and that person was named Huang Bo...

...

Our own Valentine's Day, thriller, is the gimmick that Shao Yingxiong made for "Accident". He disdained the media's previous quarrels and did not take it seriously.

In 2004, the Chinese New Year didn’t care much about the Chinese New Year. There were not as many people on the foreign festival as the foreign festival. When artists were promoted as a promotional point, and even the subway could be seen everywhere, some flower shops smelled the smell. One more Valentine’s Day would mean a lot of income for them. Is there any reason to not hype?

As a result, flower shops on the streets and alleys put up signs of "Flowers on the Chinese Valentine's Day" and their flower shops took action, and major shopping malls also began to climb along the way. The Chinese Valentine's Day actually set off a craze in China.

For unmarried men, this is of course a good opportunity to have sex. Even if there is no money in their pocket, they have to go out and enjoy it. For women, this is simply another reason to get along with their boyfriends or future boyfriends.

The festival is coming, and all the shopping malls are rewarding guests. You can’t just go to the mall and open a room after shopping, right? At least you have to take a subtle step to make the girls who go to school unable to return to the dormitory, and make the girls who go to work unable to return to their homes and units, right? You can’t spend money on it, and you can’t get any meat and fish!

So, what else can I do after dinner?

Apart from singing, there is only movies left.
Chapter completed!
