Superstars In Parallel Time and Space

In the following time, "Crazy Stone" gained a lot of word-of-mouth, and it has already thrown off "Extreme Escape", maintaining its position as the single-day box office champion.

A month later, the film's box office reached 1.8 billion!

This result stunned everyone. Before the filming of this film started, no one thought that Chen Mubai's next film could reach such a high box office!

It has surpassed the box office and popularity of "Buried Alive"!

In terms of the pre-sale box office results on the first day and the box office results on the first day, "Crazy Stone" completely defeated "Buried Alive". Many people think that the box office of this movie should drop a lot and fall back to a normal range.

Compared to "Buried Alive", this movie didn't win any awards. It only relied on Chen Mubai's fame and influence. Other than that, it all relied on the movie's word-of-mouth.

"Buried Alive" became popular abroad, and after winning the award, it became popular in China.

Many people watched it for the title of "Golden Lion Award at the Venice Film Festival", and they felt that the quality of this award-winning film should not be bad.

So in terms of publicity, the effect of "Buried Alive" is far greater than that of "Crazy Stone", and many Chinese media have also spontaneously promoted this movie.

It can be said that "Buried Alive" laid the foundation, and "Crazy Stone" continues to forge ahead at this level, without falling, and living up to expectations.

Chen Mubai became famous in the first battle, which is different from "Buried Alive" which gained popularity by winning awards. Although the quality of the movie is not bad, the box office is still a bit inflated.

"Crazy Stone" is a complete manifestation of its strength. It does not have the blessing of any awards. It relies on the quality of the work and the fermentation of word of mouth. It is an extremely good movie, and the audience is willing to pay for it.

Whether it is among ordinary audiences or film critics, the evaluation of this film is mostly positive, and there are very few negative reviews. Major film critics are analyzing this film and discussing the future of low-budget comedies .

This movie is a model of small and big, without superstars, and without awards, it relies on the quality and reputation of the work, and it is not as good as two Hollywood blockbusters or two domestic blockbusters in terms of publicity.

But in the end, the box office was able to rank second in the summer, which is a miracle!

Among the several blockbuster films in the summer, except for "Crazy Stone", the investment of the other films is several times higher than that of "Crazy Stone", especially the number one sci-fi film, although it took more than 2 billion at the box office, but he The production cost is as high as hundreds of millions of dollars!

However, foreign films are aimed at the global market, and cannot be calculated based on the Chinese market.

Take the other two domestic blockbusters as an example. The investment is basically more than 200 million yuan, and the box office is 600 million and 800 million yuan. It seems that they both made money, but not much.

And "Crazy Stone" only paid a little higher for several leading actors, and the investment was only tens of millions, but it got a box office of 1.8 billion. What a benefit!

The other three participating in the dividends were all overjoyed. Although they only accounted for a small amount, it was still a very high income!

The box office of this movie caused a shock in the industry. Everyone estimated and re-estimated that when the movie was released, the box office should be able to get 2 billion!

Chen Mubai's second film earned 2 billion at the box office, which once again moved everyone!

All the works of many directors do not have such a high box office, but Chen Mubai's one has reached it!

Even in China, a film with a box office of over 2 billion is the appeal of very few directors. With this film, Chen Mubai has become one of the top directors in China.

This is not a coincidence, the box office of "Buried Alive" also got 1.5 billion, and the two films can get a total of about 3.5 billion at the box office!

In terms of box office results alone, Chen Mubai's first two films as a director were extremely successful, basically no director has achieved his level!

Qidali, Jiaxing and other companies were full of regrets, but they didn't expect Chen Mubai to be so strong, and the companies that didn't get a ride really regretted it.

It's just a movie score,

Although the benefits are large enough, they will not regret it.

But Chen Mubai is too monstrous, and the performance of his future works will not be bad. This kind of long-standing interest is what they covet most, but it's a pity, they have no chance to get their hands on it.

 …

The "Crazy Stone" celebration banquet has been held, and all the actors are very happy.

Xia Fan became popular because of his role in the sewer, and he is very popular with the audience, and many olive branches are thrown at him in the industry.

At the beginning, when Chen Mubai was on the show, he specifically talked about Xia Fan's scene and his dedication to this scene, which made many people see Xia Fan's serious attitude. This attitude is the director's favorite attitude. His The opportunities increased.

Not to mention letting him play the leading role, but it is still possible to play a supporting role with many roles, or a role like the male number three.

Mubai Entertainment's projects are basically making money. The company's liquidity is very large, and the company's scale has become very large.

This situation will continue, and Mubai Entertainment will become more and more prosperous.

What started out as a small workshop company has become a powerful company in the blink of an eye, and has become a middle-level entertainment company.

Although it is not as large as Starway Entertainment and Feifan Entertainment, it is still a company in the middle of the middle.

But more than that, Mubai Entertainment has great potential, which is recognized in the industry, and some people even think that Mubai Entertainment will pose a threat to the status of Feifan Entertainment in the future and become the number one among mid-level entertainment companies!

As for becoming the eighth largest?

This is too difficult, and everyone still dare not think about it. Better than Feifan Entertainment did not succeed, let alone Mubai Entertainment without a backer. It is already a very remarkable thing to be able to get to that point!

"Brother Lu, I have a new work recently."

Chen Mubai participated in the promotion of the movie before, but recently he just took a break and started planning his next work.

"Don't take a break anymore?" Lu Fang was a little surprised.

This is too diligent!

If ordinary people were like Chen Mubai, they would definitely not work so intensively, so they would take more time off to relax.

He is not just a star now, he insists on running schedules and announcements outside, he is a well-known director + actor, many film and television productions wanted to invite him to star, but he refused.

In Chen Mubai's opinion, there is no need to act!

Although he will be paid a lot, the quality of the film cannot be guaranteed, so it is better to make his own, at least this good reputation can be maintained, and he will not be called bad money by others.

Besides, he doesn't have any favors to pay back, so there's no need to act in movies of unknown quality to consume his good reputation and fame.

No matter how outstanding a star is, if he acts in too many bad movies, he will be criticized for his character.

Therefore, for this kind of invitation, Chen Mubai refused. It's not that he doesn't have any movies to make, he has some good works, at least in terms of word-of-mouth.

As a director, if you have more time to rest or polish your work, you will definitely not release new works frequently. Although there will be enthusiasm, the result of high-intensity filming is that the quality will decline.

Therefore, well-known directors produce a work every year or even a few years. With fame, there will be no shortage of exposure and funds, and most people will pay for the movies they make.

For example, Chen Mubai is already a very good director. He should rest more and polish his works slowly, so as not to lack energy and prevent the quality of his works from declining.

The more famous a person is, the more he cherishes his feathers. Once the next work fails, many people will definitely sing bad news, which will have a great impact on fame and influence.

Especially people like Chen Mubai, who is now on the rise, should pay more attention to the quality of movies rather than quantity.

However, Lu Fang definitely trusted Chen Mubai, and he didn't think there would be any problems with his abilities. He was just worried about his physical condition, and high-intensity work still had a great impact on his body.

"It's not like I'm shooting now, I need some time to prepare." Chen Mubai explained.

"I now have two works, a TV series and a movie."

He came this time mainly for the TV series, the shooting of the movie will not be so fast, it will take some time.

Mubai Entertainment is currently on the rise. Chen Mubai wants to take advantage of the current influence and continue to produce new works. With this popularity, the name of Mubai Entertainment will expand its influence and secure its golden name.

"Oh?" Lu Fang was a little surprised: "A new TV series?"

The last TV series "Langya Bang" was a big success, and everyone is still looking forward to Mubai Entertainment's next drama or the script written by Chen Mubai.

Chen Yunteng's previous TV series had already come out, and the quality was not bad, but it didn't reach the quality of Chen Mubai, which was above the pass line.

Ji Yuxuan's TV series is currently being filmed, and Mubai Entertainment is not without new works. After leaving Chen Mubai, the company is still operating normally, and everything is developing in a good direction.

Of course, Chen Mubai's works are the king of Mubai Entertainment. After all, the quality and reputation of each work are very good, and everyone in the company thinks so.

Now that Chen Mubai has a new script coming out, Lu Fang is naturally surprised.

"What type is it this time?" Lu Fang asked.

"It's still a costume drama, but it's a sitcom."

"Is it similar to "Diaosi Man"?"

Lu Fang didn't expect that he went back and forth and went back to the original starting point, but changed from a city to a costume drama.

"Almost, but this one has a main storyline, not all of them are independent comedy scenes."

"Okay, I don't worry about your script, I'll be ready for you to start filming at any time."

"It doesn't require much investment. I'm using this show to train new actors. At that time, you can find suitable people, or let Xia Fan and Xia Jie be the leading actors, so as to expand their reputation."

"This is a group drama, many characters have similar roles, but there is no distinction as to who is the leading actor."

Lu Fang nodded and said: "No problem, I will find actors according to your requirements."

Many of Chen Mubai's works are not based on the fame and status of the actor, but more on the fit of the characters, that's why there are so many praised characters.

"Well, let's ask Chen Yunteng to take pictures, isn't he free now." Chen Mubai nodded.

"What about you, take a rest during this time, don't rush to shoot the next movie, or you will be exhausted." Lu Fang comforted.

It took several months to film a movie, and it was really not an easy job to be outside every day, in the wind and rain.

After Chen Mubai finished filming "Crazy Stone", he had to do the post-production of the film. After the film was finished, he needed to promote the film. He ran on various occasions and appeared on variety shows to promote it. There was really no time for rest.

After all, he can rest for a while now, and he has a new movie plan, so there is no time for rest.

This is too tiring, Lu Fang still hopes that Chen Mubai can rest more.

"Understood." Chen Mubai said with a smile: "I've been busy with work for half a year, and I haven't spent much time with Yaoyao. Now that both of us are resting, I plan to accompany her to go abroad and come back when the time comes. Then prepare for a new movie."

"It's good to go out and play, relax, I'm afraid that you will plunge into work and ruin your body." Lu Fang smiled heartily.

"Brother Lu, then you are busy, I will go to Chen Yunteng and explain."

"Um."

Lu Fang is the general manager of the company and is also in charge of the company's daily operations. In the past two years, Mubai Entertainment has developed rapidly. Lu Fang's work is not easy, and he has to manage many things every day.

Recently, "Crazy Stone" became popular, and he has been paying close attention to this aspect. He has been promoting and building momentum for the film, hoping that the performance of the film can reach a new height, which is also of great benefit to the development of the company.

After leaving Lu Fang's office, Chen Mubai went back to his own office and called for Chen Yunteng.
