Rebirth of literary style

Chapter 195 Disc*

At the end of the film, Jin Shuisheng and others were still a little unfinished. Ma Lin licked her lower lip and said, "Brother Ma's death is too worthless! I hate the Ajie played by Xingzai here. If it hadn't been for his brother Ma, he might not have died!"

He Qiang lit another cigarette and took a sip and said, "Yes, Brother Ma, I'm proud of you!" By the way, do you have money in your pockets?

Ma Lin asked with a wary face, "What are you going to do, He Qiang?"

"Nothing, I'm just going to buy a windbreaker!" He Qiang smiled slightly, with a faint and firm smile on his face. If you have it, help me make it up first, and I will pay you back the living expenses next month.

Jin Shuisheng took out his wallet and said, "I only have 50 yuan. You take it first. Don't be in a hurry to return it."

"Thank you, good brother!" He Qiang took the money with a grateful face.

"Hmm, aquatic, you are really bright." Ma Lin said unhappily, but she still took out her wallet and took out fifty from it and handed it to He Qiang. Four people raised a total of 180 yuan for He Qiang, and his own is enough to buy a windbreaker.

When five people came out of the video hall, they went to buy clothes, because only He Qiang was the most like Brother Ma, and they also wanted to see He Qiang wearing a windbreaker.

Several people went to the Convention and Exhibition Center in Bincheng, and several windbreaker stores along the way were all full of people. They all ran out to buy windbreakers after watching "The Color of Heroes".

"Wow, no, it's so crazy. Shit, your man is not as tall as you. How can he wear a windbreaker?" He Qiang pointed to a man who was trying on clothes and said to Ma Lin.

"Damn, are you burying that man or me?" Ma Lin went up and kicked He Qiang, and was dodged by He Qiang with a smile.

Five people went all the way to the store, and every shop selling windbreakers passed by was full of people. He Qiang didn't realize until he was halfway through the mall, "It's not good. If you go on like this, the windbreaker will be bought up by others. I'll get a set quickly.

He Qiang quickly squeezed into a store and grabbed one in his hand. After trying, he felt that it fit and immediately paid the bill. After coming out, He Qiang turned around and said to his friends, "How about it? Is it a little Brother Ma's demeanor?"

"Cut, Dong Shiyi, it's far away!" Ma Lin said inappropriately. In fact, He Qiang is tall and well-looking. After putting on a windbreaker, he is still quite imposing. But for some reason, Ma Lin just likes to quarrel with him.

"Oh, don't be beautiful. Go and buy a pair of sunglasses, so that I can look less on your face!" Marlene proposed.

He Qiang turned out his two trouser pockets and said with a bitter face, "My pockets are cleaner than my face now. How can I afford to buy sunglasses!"

"Oh, I'm kind-hearted. I'll help you with it first, and I'll definitely remember to return it to me next month." Ma Lin said solemnly.

He Qiang suddenly smiled and said, "Linlin, you are so decent. I promise I won't be angry with you in the future!"

"Do you still have that face? Let's go!"

The five people bought sunglasses again. After this dress, He Qiang's momentum immediately changed. Although he could not be compared with Brother Ma in the movie, he was also a handsome man, and the rate of turning back on the road came up.

It's just that on their way back to school, they met a lot of people dressed like this, with long windbreakers and sunglasses, which shows the influence of "The Color of Heroes". Bincheng's windbreakers and sunglasses are out of stock within two days.

......

At this time, the stock of VCD machines in Chinese families should be about 50 million. Of course, not all people will choose to buy discs, but more people go to audio and video stores to rent discs. But even if one in ten people choose to buy discs, they can sell 5 million copies. At the price of 15 yuan, the total sales of 5 million copies is 7 million. What's more, with the classic degree of "The Color of Heroes", it is definitely worth cherishing at home, so Zhang Duo believes that the discs of "The Color of Heroes" should sell more than 5 million copies.

When Jin Yutang saw today's report, he was chatting with Song Siwei and Zhang Duo while eating and discussing about Shanghai Beach. After I didn't want to see the report, the wine glass fell on the table and almost spilled on the ground.

"What's the matter? Is the sales not good?" Song Siwei always likes to think about bad places first. Seeing Jin Yutang's expression, he suddenly became nervous.

"420,000, according to the retail price, it is 333 million, and the box office of "East to West" is not so high on the first day!" Jin Yutang looked at the data in front of him in a daze and muttered.

"What...what's going on?" Song Siwei felt that the food in front of him tasted like chewing wax. He put down his chopsticks and said, "630 million... It's not such a high box office in theaters, is it?"

Jin Yutang looked at him strangely and wanted to joke, but he couldn't laugh. It took him a long time to say, "It's his uncle, if we are released in the cinema, I'm confident that I will win 300 million!"

Song Siwei was shocked by his words, his hands trembled, and the wine glass on the side was almost swept to the ground by him. Yutang, is it too late to beg the old man now?

Jin Yutang said with a bitter face, "Yes, I really regret it. If I had been willing to put down and beg the 'grandfathers' of the General Administration, maybe the first film with a box office of more than 300 million would have appeared in our hands."

Jin Yutang turned his head and looked at Zhang Duo, with sad eyes and a sad expression. Aduo, is there any film similar to it, but it needs to be positive, at least it can be shown in the cinema?

Zhang Duo can't laugh or cry. In the countless voting rankings of Hong Kong films, "Hero's Color" is absolutely the first. How can it be so similar to it? Moreover, the audit system of Hong Kong films is different from that of the mainland. After an excellent Hong Kong film is cut by the General Administration, it often becomes structurally chaotic and the plot cannot be coherent. And the most typical of these are "Big Guy" and "Big Man with Great Wisdom".

"Big Man with Great Wisdom" is a version re-edited by the relevant mainland departments for some unpublished reasons, cut out some scenes, adjusted the relationship between some plots, and reluctantly justified itself. However, the structure of the film is chaotic and the plot is not coherent. The director of the film has publicly told reporters that "Big Big Wisdom" is not his work. Because "Big man with great wisdom" is not only an incomplete work, but also a waste that has been arbitrarily modified. The original "Big Guy" is a veritable award-winning film.

"Oh, cousin Yu, I have time to think about it. As you know, I'm really busy!" Zhang Duo said helplessly.

Jin Yutang knew what Zhang Duo said, so he didn't say anything more.

The next day, 340,000 discs were sold, because a considerable part of them were bought by the video hall on the first day. On the third day, 380,000. Four million on the fourth day. On the fifth day, 510,000 pieces. By the seventh day, the first week of "The Color of Heroes" sold as many as 330,000 copies, with a total retail sales of 45.5 million. Far beyond the box office of East and West, as soon as this data was released, the whole country was shocked.

Major domestic newspapers and magazines have reported one after another, because this data is really surprising. Even if there are few people in the world who sell pirated CDs, it is enough for the genuine version to reach this sales volume.

Shengxin Film and Television Company, Dai Anmin looked at the entertainment news in the Beijing Evening News and gently put down the newspaper with a melancholy face. Wang Cheng, sitting opposite him, suddenly smiled and said, "What, do you feel pressure?"

Dai Anmin sighed and said, "Yes, Wanbang Film and Television is a film that can't even log in to the cinema. How can it not surprise me that discs can be sold to this point!"

Wang Cheng shook his head and said, "No, Brother Anmin's words are bad! You should know that their "Hero's Color" was filmed in Hong Kong, and everyone knows that the atmosphere there is looser than here. So they can shoot a little better. Our audience likes to watch those who play a little edge ball.

However, if the film wants to be released in the mainland, it must pass the General Administration. Under the constraints of those rules and regulations, everyone is like dancing with shackles. Although their creativity is good, they may not be able to dance well.

Dai Anmin smiled and said, "You're not bad. I'm just a little worried. As you know, Zhang Duo went to Xixia City some time ago. When he came back, he said at a press conference that he planned to make a movie about the Monkey King. This is a collision with our "Big Sky".

Wang Cheng laughed and said, "Anmin, are you too ambitious to destroy your own prestige? Our "Havoc in Heaven" has a total investment of 200 million yuan. Now it has been post-production for four months, and it is expected that the cost of special effects will exceed 100 million yuan. Our play is scheduled to be released at the end of the year. Do you think it can crash with us in time? Even if the time and theme crash, what good films do you think they can make in such a short time?

Dai Anmin would like to say that "East becomes West", "East Evil West Poison" and "Hero's true colors" were all filmed in a very short time, but if this was said, it would be too depressing. Dai Anmin hesitated for a long time and still said nothing.

......

All matters of "The Color of Heroes" are dominated by Jin Yutang. On the one hand, Zhang Duo is happy and leisurely, on the other hand, he is ready to start shooting Shanghai Beach. Just as he was about to take the crew to Jiangnan Film and Television City, he suddenly received a phone call from Jin Yutang.

"Aduo, my father wants to see you!" Jin Yutang's tone was very serious.

"What...what's the matter, cousin Yu, isn't it a mental mistake made by "The Color of Heroes"?" Zhang Duo said tremblingly.

Jin Yutang laughed and said, "Look at your timidity. No, it's the book of Emperor Yongzheng, which is now in a mess in the officialdom. My father just wants to talk to you."

"Damn, cousin Yu, please don't be so serious when you talk about your uncle in the future? Just now, you really jumped me down. I thought someone attacked me to pass on the main members of the underworld, glorified the evil forces, and attacked Dang wildly!" Zhang Duo said with lingering heart.
