The two movies were being promoted on the same show, and they even collided.
This made the recording scene extremely awkward!
Mr. He, who had always been quick-witted, did not think of any way to ease the awkwardness for the time being.
"Haha, it's common for movies to collide with each other. I hope that both our films will achieve good results.”
After all, Lu Tao was a famous director, so his words were very pleasant.
"Alright, our program's movie promotion segment has come to an end. Next, let's have a chat and let the children work?”
Huang Lei continued.
The atmosphere was finally no longer awkward. Everyone started to record the show while chatting and laughing.
However,
Although the atmosphere at the recording studio had calmed down, the audience was still in a state of chaos.
Especially Lu's female fans.
They were mocking Chu Feng and his sister on the online broadcast platform.
The bullet comments all floated past:
" It's fine if it's a crash. Who's afraid of who?'
" It's not scary to have a showtime, but the one with the lowest box office earnings will be embarrassed!'
……
In fact, there was a reason why Lu's fans were so arrogant.
" Hudu Fortress " could be said to have an all-star lineup.
The male lead, Lu, was currently the top celebrity in the country. He had 60 million fans on Weibo and was often on the trending list.
The female lead was the Xiangjiang actress, Shu Qi. Her acting skills and looks coexisted, and she was also the best actress at the 48th Golden Horse Awards!
As for the supporting roles, they all had their own backgrounds.
Gao Yixiang, Ishii, Gong Liang…they were all famous actors in the industry.
Moreover, the director of this movie, the famous Lu Tao, relied on " The Age of Naked Marriage " and " 33 Days of Lovelorn " to build up his reputation.
Therefore, if nothing unexpected happened, the movie's box office earnings would definitely exceed 500 million.
There were even professionals who estimated that the total box office earnings of 'Fortress of Hudu' could very well exceed 1 billion yuan.
Then, he compared it to " Take My Brother Away ".
The male lead was Chu Feng, a child star who had debuted and returned to film after a ten-year hiatus. His popularity was almost zero.
The female lead was Zhang Zifeng, an actress born in the 2000s. Although her acting skills were not bad, she was still young and inexperienced.
As for the 80's female director, Zheng Fen, she was far less famous than Lu Tao in the directing world.
Not to mention that the total investment for " Take My Brother Away " was only 8 million, while the investment cost for " Hudu Fortress " was conservatively estimated at 350 million.
So,
From the comparison between the two, the box office earnings of Take My Brother Away would definitely be beaten by Hu Du Fortress!
Of course, although most of the audience believed that the Shanghai Fortress had a high chance of winning, the audience was still very happy.
However, many people could not stand the aggressive attitude of Lu's fans and began to fight back.
"What's the use of a popular fresh meat who only relies on his looks but doesn't have any acting skills no matter how high the box office is?”
Young Deer's fans could not refute this comment.
Lu's acting skills were indeed terrible.
However, the fans didn't allow others to say that. They very sneakily directed the flames of war onto Chu Feng.
"Chu Feng is also very good-looking. Does he have acting skills? Why do you always target our Lu?”
The two sides exchanged fire and argued with each other.
In fact, the audience who were speaking up for Chu Feng didn't have much confidence either.
Although Chu Feng was indeed good at acting when he was young, would his acting skills still be there after ten years of retirement?
No one knew!
However, he had to admit,
Chu Feng's sunny and handsome image was well-liked by the males watching TV.
Men should act like men!
What lipstick, what eyeshadow, what earrings…
Nowadays, the trend was becoming more and more incomprehensible. It seemed that the new generation of male actors were evolving in the direction of sissies.
Looking back at the source, this was all an evil trend that had been introduced from the entertainment industry of Country H.
It was getting rarer and rarer to see an actor as sunny as Chu Feng!
……
The program continued recording. After Teacher Huang finished assigning work, everyone started working.
Chu Feng's performance on the show was very good.
Chopping firewood, lighting a fire, pulling out radishes…
Chu Feng was hardworking and steadfast. He didn't mind any dirty work and fought to do it, and he did it very well.
It was worth mentioning that Chu Feng's variety sense was quite good.
The most important thing in a variety show was to put on a show!
Chu Feng had done this perfectly.
His and his sister's actions in front of the camera often made the audience laugh.
After spending a day together, Huang Lei and He Ling grew to like Chu Feng more and more.
The two of them instantly felt that inviting Chu Feng to join the program group was simply too wise.
At night, when they were preparing dinner.
The fragrant smell of chicken wafted out from the kitchen. Chef Huang Lei secretly called Chu Feng and his sister over.
"Each of you will have a chicken wing. After eating the chicken wings, you can soar to the sky! Oh, right, don't let Lu find out.”
As expected, Teacher Huang Lei was biased.
He still preferred Chu Feng and Zhang Zifeng. These two capable little actors were the future hope of the Chinese film industry!
It was better for the popular young actors to stand aside.
……
Time flew by.
Before they knew it, the first episode of the third season of " The Life To Be Seen " had been recorded. The second episode would be recorded in the middle of next month.
Half a month later, in the early morning of September, the premiere of " Hudu Fortress ".
Many famous film critics in the entertainment industry had specially bought tickets for the midnight screening.
In their line of work, if they wanted to make money, they had to write reviews of popular movies before other film critics.
Among the movies that were released at the same time," Fortress of Shanghai " was definitely the most popular movie!
Before the movie was released, the popularity of 'Shanghai Fortress' had been very high on the Internet. Experts were all predicting the box office results.
Compared to " Hudu Fortress,"" Take My Brother Away " that was released at the same time was not as impressive.
Not only was there no activity on the Internet.
Moreover, there was only one film critic who bought tickets for the midnight screening.
And this was because the tickets for " Hudu Fortress " had been sold out.
However, in the early morning of the second day.
When the box office figures of the theater chains were announced, all the media people were shocked and heated discussions broke out on the Internet.
"What?! 'Hudu Fortress' actually had similar first-day box office earnings as 'Take My Brother Away Quickly'? Are you kidding me!"
Lu and Lu Tao looked at each other in disbelief.
At the same time, on the other side, Zheng Fenle, who had received the news, was overjoyed.
On the surface," Take My Brother Away " and " Hudu Fortress " both had a premiere score of 30 million and seemed to be evenly matched.
However, he had to admit,
Reputation was the key to determining the total box office of a movie.
Comparing the two movies," Take My Brother Away " had a Douban rating of 8.5, while " Hudu Fortress " only had a rating of 3.3. It was undoubtedly a bad movie!
On the same day, online statistics were tabulated.
More than half of the audience who went to watch 'Hudu Fortress' left the theater halfway through the movie.
They had been fooled.
One after another, they complained on the Internet that the entire process of " Hudu Fortress " was extremely annoying. The feeling of watching the movie was extremely bad. It was like watching a slide show!!
