Superstars In Parallel Time and Space

Good things come in pairs. When "Resident Evil" was being promoted vigorously, Chen Mubai ushered in another piece of good news.

The ratings data of "Legend of Sword and Fairy", which he gave high hopes, has risen a lot, and it has become the most popular TV series of the year!

I think that when it was first released, the data was not very high, but as time passed, the plot slowly unfolded, and everyone saw the world of Xianxia, ​​and also solved many puzzles buried in front.

In addition to the many beautiful and outrageous environments in it, all kinds of spells are released, coupled with those agile and elegant figures, it really has a fairy flavor, which is very different from traditional martial arts works.

"Mu Bai, the plot of "Legend of Sword and Fairy" is over halfway, and the popularity is very high. Several leading actors have become popular, and many resources have taken the initiative to find them." Lu Fang was very happy.

The protagonists of "Legend of Sword and Fairy" are all stars of Mubai Entertainment, and they are a bunch of newcomers. Lu Fang really didn't expect that this drama would directly make several leading actors popular!

Even some important supporting roles are also popular, and these old actors are ushering in their second popularity. It can be said that the people who participated in this drama are all popular. The ability of this star is too strong, even the original "Struggle" is far behind not on it!

"We have been preparing for this drama for more than a year. It has only been half a month since the data was sluggish at the beginning to the current full-scale outbreak. The protagonist Li Xiaoyao was scolded by netizens at the beginning, and everyone witnessed his later stage. Growing up, turning around to support him, his popularity has increased, and the person playing Li Xiaoyao has become the most popular person in this drama."

Lu Fang told Chen Mubai the current information about "Legend of Sword and Fairy".

"The role of Zhao Ling'er was very successful, it's almost like killing both men and women. Everyone likes this simple character. The addition of another heroine, Lin Yueru, was initially resisted by everyone, and the actor's WeChat was blasted... .”

When talking about Lin Yueru, Lu Fang was also a little helpless: "However, it's better now, the character of daring to love and hate, coupled with the deep love for Li Xiaoyao, has captured a part of the audience, unlike before being scolded It's so miserable."

There is no way, Zhao Ling'er is like the white moonlight in everyone's heart, she is too pure and makes people want to protect.

Lin Yueru is close to Xiaosan, although in the world of Xianxia, ​​it is normal to have three wives and four concubines, but because of the experience between Zhao Linger and Li Xiaoyao, and her simple personality, everyone can't understand the role of Lin Yueru who was inserted later. will scold.

Because of the popularity of the TV series, Zhao Linger's popularity is too high, and there are too many people who like it. Some people can't help raising their roles to real actors, and then launch a blast against the actors.

After Mubai Entertainment found out, they responded to the incident in a timely manner. In addition, several leading actors loved each other on the show, and the audience also supported each other.

However, the cyberbully actors also explained that this show is too popular, so some people will do that.

Chen Mubai smiled and said: "It's okay, Lin Yueru will attract a large number of fans in the future. How much someone scolds you now, you will regret it when the time comes. Someone will definitely apologize to the actor. Just wait for a while."

"Really?" Lu Fang asked in surprise, "Why?"

Chen Mubai said: "Lin Yueru will die later, I think when that episode is broadcast, it will definitely cause another wave of enthusiasm, and it may even be the highest rating point of this drama."

"Will you die?" Lu Fang didn't know much about Immortal Sword, and his attention has been on "Resident Evil" recently.

Compared with this movie, the field of TV series is indeed no longer his focus. Chen Mubai has drawn a big cake, and the superhero universe is now the key plan.

It is very common to write dead characters, but most of the works are supporting characters, and there are very few dead protagonists. After all, everyone’s perspective is always on the protagonist. The death of some charming supporting characters will arouse heated discussions and regrets from the audience. But if the protagonist dies, he will definitely be scolded...

Lu Fang didn't expect that Chen Mubai would challenge the dead protagonist, it's so daring!

"I will be resurrected later, but I still have to die first, Zhao Linger will die too, this is a catastrophe for Li Xiaoyao.

"

Chen Mubai nodded and said: "The protagonist Li Xiaoyao is not a perfect person, he has many flaws, flattery, talkative..."

"Everyone hated him at the beginning because the character was too real. Why do you like to watch works about domineering presidents? Because the reality is too bitter. The audience doesn't want to watch TV dramas with trashy protagonists. Instead, those sports cars and luxury goods seem to make people relax. , is also the life that everyone longs for, high society, sports cars and watches, beautiful women..."

"The role of Li Xiaoyao is real, and it makes most of the audience empathize with him. Everyone thinks of his own life when they see him, so they don't want to see useless protagonists. They like to see stalwart protagonists. This is what the audience brings The expectation of entering the role."

"So in the beginning Li Xiaoyao's personal equipment was controversial. Li Xiaoyao is a real person. He is greedy for life and afraid of death, and as timid as a mouse, but there are constant things that force him to move forward. On this road, he has made friends with many people. His My personality gradually changed, and I began to take responsibility."

"Speaking of which, although Li Xiaoyao is a common man, he has always had a dream of being a hero in his heart. His loyalty is very strong, which is why he can attract so many friends. The audience follows the protagonist's story in the process. After developing and growing, I discovered Li Xiaoyao's changes, so more and more people like him later on."

"Compared to the protagonist who was Guang Wei'an at the beginning, the audience actually prefers this kind of growth protagonist, but this requires a process, and most works have abandoned this point, choosing a simple and rough starting point, eliminating the need for The process of shaping the characters, compared with the two, it seems that the characters in "Legend of Sword and Fairy" are plump and three-dimensional and real."

"In this play, each character has his own pursuit, not a simple concept of good and evil, not doing bad things for the sake of doing bad things, but they insist that they are right and work hard for it, so the supporting actors will shine."

The Lord of Worshiping the Moon is a villain, but are there many people who hate him?

Except for young audiences, people with certain experience will not hate this character. His growth environment has made him look like that. Many people even think that what he did is right. Same thing, different things to see.

"In general, the success of this drama is within my expectation, it's time to release the next one." Chen Mubai said.

Lu Fang knew about the next plan. When "Legend of Sword and Fairy" was established, Chen Mubai had already made plans for the sequel.

That's why Lu Fang knew that Chen Mubai attached great importance to the IP "Legend of Sword and Fairy", and he considered the follow-up production when the first project was approved, which is enough to show his importance to this drama and his confidence in its success.

Now, the facts have been verified, and indeed, as he had expected, "Legend of Sword and Fairy" became a big hit.

Even if the statistics of the first broadcast were sluggish, it could not stop the subsequent rise. Facts have proved that Chen Mubai's original decision was correct. He used a group of newcomers to lead the role, and then invested all the funds in costumes, props and special effects. Only when the details of this drama are filled in can the quality be high, and the audience is fascinated by the work.

Looking at Chen Mubai's calm face, Lu Fang thought to himself, I'm afraid no one will be as confident as Chen Mubai, who can use a new lineup to perform a work with such a large investment!

The most important thing is that he also achieved success and made this group of newcomers popular. Chen Mubai is indeed too powerful.

Compared with the outside world's evaluation of him, Lu Fang followed Chen Mubai all the way, only to realize that his ability is far more outstanding than the outside world thinks!

Not only is it about the output of high-quality works, Chen Mubai has a good grasp of the audience's tastes and future trends in the market, so every decision he makes can be successful because he has insight into the market trends.

This ability to accurately grasp the market and audience is far more important than high-quality works!

There are many works of excellent quality emerging every year, but not all of them will achieve good results. There are many works that are popular or not popular, so being able to clearly grasp the market demand is far more important than writing (shooting) excellent works .

For example, the box office of "Lost in Thailand" is very high, but the quality is much worse than that of the comedy "Crazy Stone". This is still the same type of work, and it is far inferior to "Buried Alive".

Whether it is the concept or the depth of the work, "Tai囧" can be said to be a relatively "bad" existence in Chen Mubai's works, but the box office is very high.

This is because Chen Mubai has a sharp vision. He clearly knows the audience's taste and market positioning for the work. Light-hearted comedy works can be loved by the public, and the box office will be inflated compared to other works.

The same is true for "Charlotte Annoyance". It is undeniable that the quality of these two films is not bad, but they are far from the high-quality works of "Infernal Affairs", and the box office gap is not very big, which can explain some reasons.

The higher the quality of a movie, the higher the box office. It still depends on the tastes and hobbies of the audience. The box office of Chen Mubai's works can be very high. In addition to the quality online, it depends more on the positioning and grasp of the market.

There are many high-quality works, but the box office is poor. This is not the problem of the film itself, but that they did not find an accurate positioning and did not produce something that the audience likes. Chen Mubai is able to grasp the quality and the taste of the audience very well, so his Movie box office is generally not low.

Just like the two films "I'm Not the God of Medicine" and "When Happiness Comes Knocking on the Door", they are also not cool films in the conventional sense, and the process is still a bit cruel, but Chen Mubai made what the audience wanted, so he succeeded. up.

Fame is only a catalyst. It can only be said that it has a certain appeal, but this appeal cannot have a high box office. The box office can explode. It must be because the work itself has something that the audience likes, and the audience is willing to pay for the movie.

Just like Tao Yaoyao's "Resident Evil", the pre-sale box office is very high, which shows that her appeal is still very strong, so the limelight of the movie is strong.

But the specific box office data still depends on the quality of the movie. This appeal can only be useful when the movie is just released.

"Is the project approved now?" Lu Fang asked.

Chen Mubai said: "Wait a few more days for the official announcement, we can set up the project first and set up the crew."

"Actors?" Lu Fang looked at Chen Mubai, implying whether to continue to use newcomers or the original crew.

If newcomers are used, Chen Mubai needs to choose them personally. The actors of "Legend of Sword and Fairy" are chosen by Chen Mubai himself.

"Just the original crew."

Chen Mubai did not choose to start a new lineup, but decided to use the original crew.

Originally, the first film was a big hit, and several leading actors are booming. If they make a sequel, there will definitely be a lot of audience support. Compared with pure newcomers, the ratings are guaranteed.

The ip of Xianjian and the original cast will definitely be a hot topic, and the popularity will not be low.

"Okay, I'll make arrangements now," Lu Fang said.

At present, only a few people know about Chen Mubai's filming plan for "Sword and Fairy", and the leading actors don't know that Chen Mubai still has plans to film "Legend of Sword and Fairy 3", they think there is only one.

"When this drama is on the air, announcing the approval of the project will definitely attract the audience who like this drama to the greatest extent. This is the best publicity!" Lu Fang said with a smile.

"Legend of Sword and Fairy" is currently on the air, and the current ratings are skyrocketing. After all, three TV stations are broadcasting at the same time, and the popularity of the work is very high. Announcing the production of the sequel at this time is definitely the best publicity!

What's more, this drama is still starred by the original cast, which retains the audience to a greater extent.

In the eyes of many viewers, if the first work is successful, then the sequel will hope that the original cast will star in it. They have preconceived ideas and always think that they will be the most suitable people.

This is true no matter in the film or TV industry. The main reason is that everyone accepts the role created by the actor, and then agrees with another person to play the role. Unless the performance is particularly good, otherwise they will think that they are not as good as the other party.

"By the way, the pre-sale box office data of "Resident Evil" has come out. It is currently 130 million pre-sale results, and there is still one day left. The data should be even higher."

Lu Fang said: "The film schedule given by the theater is also the highest in the same period, with 37%. Except for the other two big productions, the other works are basically not rivals."

Even the two major productions still lost to the popularity of "Resident Evil".

Mainly, Chen Mubai's reputation is too great, and his script quality has always been very high. This movie is directed by him, and it has elements of sci-fi + zombies. "The Walking Dead" is a big hit all over the world. It was Tao Yaoyao's first time to fight against the box office as a leading heroine. With all kinds of factors superimposed, it would be difficult not to explode!

"Okay, after the official release of "Resident Evil", we will announce the production of "Legend of Sword and Sword 3". Let the popularity of the movie ferment first, and we can seamlessly continue the file." Chen Mubai said.

"Resident Evil" and "Legend of Sword and Fairy" are both works of Mubai Entertainment. The popularity of the two works is very high. If they meet together, they will naturally have an impact.

The first few days before the film is released is the most critical period. Film reviews, word-of-mouth, quality, and ratings will be released. These are crucial to the film's performance. Naturally, it is necessary to maximize the revenue of "Resident Evil".

When everything is almost the same, the announcement of the project approval of "Legend of Sword and Fairy 3" will also increase the attention and popularity of the work.

This period of time is used to determine the schedule of the actors. After all, the original cast will star in, and they don’t know about it. Because of the popularity of this drama, a lot of resources are coming in one after another. They probably have a full schedule. It also takes time to adjust.

Although the filming of "Legend of Sword and Fairy 3" will affect many announcements, but compared to the popular ip, once this drama is cast, it will definitely become more popular, and it can become a representative work, and no actor will refuse.

The debut work can be a big hit, and it is still a big ip attached to it. If it is changed to anyone, it is afraid that they will wake up from a dream.

"Okay, according to current estimates, the box office of "Resident Evil" hit a bottom of one billion, and the movie's revenue has come back."

The pre-sale box office is almost covering the production cost, not to mention the box office of the movie, it will definitely explode!

This is the first work not starring Chen Mubai to have such a high pre-sale box office!

Although the previous "Reaper" and "Chain Saw" had good reputations, their pre-sale box office was only 30 to 40 million, far less than "Resident Evil".

It's just that the scripts of those two movies were written by Chen Mubai, and he wasn't the director, so the appeal seemed a bit weak.

"Leave everything to me to arrange. I will inform you when the road show is publicized. You can do the post-production of "Iron Man" with peace of mind." Lu Fang went through the things one by one.

 …

After the pre-sale box office results of "Resident Evil" were released, it once again aroused heated discussions among netizens.

This result is great, especially Tao Yaoyao is the first time to play the role of heroine.

However, apart from the gold medal combination of Chen Mubai + Tao Yaoyao, the trailer of the movie is also amazing. Many netizens are very interested in the movie after seeing the trailer, and then bought movie tickets.

At the beginning of the filming of this film, the industry had estimated that this film would definitely make money. After all, it was Tao Yaoyao's first starring role, and with Chen Mubai's assistance, the quality would definitely not be bad.

But no one thought that the pre-sale box office results would be so good, and the box office went to more than one billion!

At the beginning, the outside world estimated that the film's final box office would be around one billion. Now that the box office is guaranteed to be one billion, the movie may hit the two billion mark!

These two difficulties are quite high, especially the difficulty from one billion to two billion. In addition to the quality of the work, the actors' acting skills are indispensable in all aspects. Otherwise, the quality of the work will be affected, and the box office will inevitably not be high.

Tao Yaoyao surprised all the netizens when she appeared in a red dress in the trailer, she is so beautiful!

The close-fitting clothes showed Tao Yaoyao's beautiful figure all along, coupled with the handsome and sharp movements, added a lot of charm to the character, and Tao Yaoyao has always been a quiet and weak girl in the public's impression. In the movie, she became a female agent. The two temperaments are very different, which further highlights the wild aura of Tao Yaoyao.

Netizens are very interested in this kind of huge contrast, and the bright red clothes are for people. It is difficult for many people to wear clothes of this color to reflect their appearance and temperament. Tao Yaoyao perfectly manages the difficult big Red, the clothes not only did not affect her appearance, but added mystery to her.

A day later, the premiere of "Resident Evil" officially began.

Chen Mubai and Tao Yaoyao attended, and they are also the biggest names in this movie.

During the promotion of the road show, the two of them also kept answering various questions from the audience. They said all the information about the movie that could be revealed, and they were silent when it came to spoilers. They didn’t reveal too much. Content that appeals to curiosity.

The main creative team sat down to watch the movie premiere together.

"I don't know how the movie is. I haven't seen the finished movie yet."

Tao Yaoyao sat next to Chen Mubai, and when the movie was about to start, she whispered.

"However, the trailer received rave reviews, and everyone praised my breakthrough."

The role of Ellie is completely different from Tao Yaoyao herself, so her performance this time really surprised her fans and reversed the positioning of her from the outside world.

"Let's appreciate your work." Chen Mubai boasted with a smile.

"I'm still nervous." Tao Yaoyao held Chen Mubai's hand, her palm was a little sweaty and her strength was a little too strong.

"Relax, you will soon become China's first heroine with a box office of over one billion." Chen Mubai patted her tightly clenched hands.

Advertisement, 【 \\Mi\\Mi\\Reading\\app \\\\ 】It’s really good, it’s worth installing, even Android and Apple phones support it!

This heroine refers to the heroine who fights against the box office alone, not the heroine-dominated heroine in ordinary movies.

If the box office breaks one billion, Tao Yaoyao's celebrity status will be even greater, and her status in the film and television industry will be even higher. After all, there is still a big difference between the box office ability of monoclonal antibodies and the box office obtained by starring in other people's works.

The former is more difficult, which represents my appeal and ability, and has nothing to do with the production team.

"Well, although I haven't seen the finished film, I believe you must have taken a good picture of me!"

 …

"It's so beautiful~"

"It's true, the picture lying on the bed is so beautiful~"

"This red dress looks amazing on my body."

"Yaoyao's looks are really good, others rely on clothes to set off, she is the one who can set off clothes..."

At the beginning of the movie, the scene where Tao Yaoyao appeared instantly amazed everyone.

Then everyone knew that the place they were going to was the research institute where the virus was released at the beginning of the movie.

Hundreds of people were all locked in the research institute, and no one escaped, which shows how serious this matter is!

The most important thing is that they don't know what to face yet, they just went down to investigate what happened in the institute.

The audience from God's perspective naturally knew what happened below, and they watched the protagonist and his party go to the research institute full of zombies.

Because Chen Mubai said earlier that this is a series of movies, and there will be a sequel later. After seeing the underground research institute built by Umbrella Company, everyone can guess how powerful the company is!

The special effects of the description at the beginning of the underground research institute are quite satisfactory, not particularly outstanding but not slowing down.

Compared with China's special effects, it is very good, but compared with European and American blockbusters, it is slightly inferior.

However, this special effect is not very important, after all, it is just a model, and it is not clear how the final special effect will be based on this clip.

With the development of the plot, they found that there was no living person in the underground research institute, and it seemed very quiet. This was the biggest problem.

Tao Yaoyao also lost her memory. After she saw the scene, sporadic memories kept flashing back.

Finally, outside a room, they decide to turn off the AI ​​- the Red Queen.

This is also the purpose of their trip.

The first high-energy shot came, in a glass room filled with water, after everyone left, the corpse suddenly opened its eyes!

This clip scared many viewers, and the girls all exclaimed.

At this time, someone recognized the female corpse.

"Isn't this the scientific researcher at the beginning of the movie?"

"Yes, it was her. The virus was broken in this room, and then the poisonous gas was released. This room was locked, and then they were drowned alive!"

"You can still open your eyes after death, which means that they have become zombies. Then the people before them should have changed. I remember that there was an elevator full of people. Have they all changed?"

"Exciting, the previous plot is almost paved, and the next one should be a high-energy scene~"

Soon, everyone did not see zombies appearing, but they saw several people die.

The laser net instantly killed several people, and then cut them into a pile of minced meat!

This also includes the captain of the team. Everyone thought this man was the male lead, but they got the boxed lunch in an instant.

However, the plot of this laser network is very exciting, which makes the audience look very fresh.

This special effect is very good, whether it is the aurora or being cut into minced meat, the special effect does not show any flaws at all, as if it is real.

After passing through this laser door, they finally came to the control room and started to close the red queen.

The appearance of the red queen is very cute, and she can vaguely see Tao Yaoyao's face.

"Is this Tao Yaoyao?"

"It seems to be~"

"They look alike."

"Tao Yaoyao said about it, and Chen Mubai specially made it according to her childhood photo..."

The audience was amazed when they saw the cute appearance of the red queen.

When they shut down the Red Queen, the Red Queen asked them not to shut it down, which was inconsistent with the requirements of the umbrella company, and everyone turned off the system without minding.

Before closing, the Red Queen glanced at them indifferently: "You will all die here!"

As the lights go out, all the protective measures of the institute disappear.

At the same time, the companions waiting in another place encountered zombies, but they didn't know that these people turned into zombies, and then one of them was bitten.

After paying a painful price, everyone finally got together and escaped.

Then the heroine Ellie met the zombie dog, which was extremely fast and violent.

This is much more powerful than humans. This plot perfectly reflects Ellie's skill. She solved these zombie dogs cleanly.

Tao Yaoyao's clean and neat skills amazed everyone. For the first time, she felt that the role she played was very successful. She was beautiful, sexy and wild, and very attractive.

The shape of the zombie dog also amazed the audience. This is the first time everyone has seen this kind of animal zombie. There is no such thing in "The Walking Dead".

Finally, they also encountered the final boss, the Licker.

This is more powerful than a zombie dog, it is a monster!

Everyone was almost wiped out by the group, and in the end only Ellie and another man survived, but the man was also scratched and was about to turn into a dead body. The actor who played the role was Qian Duoduo.

However, when they finally left the research institute and returned to the villa, a large group of people came and took them away.

The two were pressed on the same bed, and the researchers were doing research, as if they were doing experiments, and then the movie ended.

At the same time, the Umbrella Company once again issued an order to send people to explore the research institute again!

Allie woke up with tubes all over her body, and she had them removed and left the hospital.

She walked on the street and found that the whole street was empty, just like the hospital.

The streets are extremely chaotic, full of cars, garbage, and those collapsed statues and billboards. It is not at all like a luxurious city full of people on weekdays, but rather like a dilapidated place that has experienced the baptism of war.

Finally, a newspaper appeared in front of the camera, and the news on it was [Rampage of the Living Dead]!

Come to think of it, zombies have already captured the city, so the bustling streets have become what they are today!

The camera zooms out, Ellie is holding a gun, standing in a chaotic street, the surrounding environment is fully displayed in the eyes of the audience, the city is close to falling, just like the city in "The Walking Dead"!

The movie is over!
