Chapter 797 Sweetheart is released


    Chen Qi prepared dozens of boxes of mainland scenery films and news documentaries.


    Documentaries are all about the livelihood of the city and people in various places, such as urban construction, rural contracting, households in tens of thousands of yuan, selling goods in the market, etc., and Mandarin in Yishui’s dialect. Henan''s "Central", Shandong''s "My Mom" ??and Ningbo''s "Dingdang Dingdang Drop" are flying all over the sky, so it''s guaranteed that the veterans can see enough.


    He also took the time to visit Li Zongren''s son and made an appointment to talk about his feelings about "Bloody Battle with Taierzhuang".


    Once "Bloody Battle with Taierzhuang" is released in Hong Kong, Comrade Nicholas will definitely get a copy, but Chen Qi wants those veterans to watch it too. If the videotape can be successfully entered into the island, then the copy will be transported in.


    …


    In the blink of an eye, "Little Sweetheart" finally debuted in theaters after winning the Sundance Film Festival in January.


    The ratings of American movies are: G-level, PG-level, PG-13, R-level, NC-17.


    The R-level scale is already very large. Bloody films like "Resident Evil" and "Saw" are just R-level. "Life and Death Reading" starring Kate Winslet has large-scale **** shots, which is also R-level.


    So what kind of movie is the NC-17 level?


    Well, "Lust and Caution".


    "Little Sweetheart" was rated as R-level.


    Colombia will not pay too much publicity and distribution funds for B-level films of this kind of theme - in fact, the big profit is still on the video tape, but Chen Qi is now entering Hollywood, and he needs more theater movies to earn qualifications.


    "Little Sweetheart" is still a piece of meat no matter how small it is.


    On the day of the release of Los Angeles, he naturally had to attend.


    After Sundance''s training, Umathurman has become a bit star-like. His outfits are not excellent, but he is not decent.


    The 178cm girl ran over and hugged her big: "It would be great that you could come, otherwise I would be so nervous... Oh, sorry, I forgot that you changed your name to Tustin Hanberg!"


    "Just kidding, don''t take it to heart."


    Chen Qi''s face turned dark and I forgot about this.


    He wore a suit today and appeared as a screenwriter + producer. He put his hands on Umathurman''s waist and accepted the crackling media photos. He does not pretend to be reserved, nor does he let himself go, but only pays attention to the word "appropriate".


    This is in the United States, what is the hug of a waist?


    Pay a little attention in Hong Kong, pay special attention in the mainland, and shoot it if you are accidentally shot.


    "Little Sweetheart" follows regular publicity, and wins the theme, which is enough to attract some viewers who like this type of audience. Chen Qi has a certain social circle in Hollywood, but he didn''t invite any celebrities to help today. "Little Sweetheart" is not enough.


    The premiere seemed a bit shabby, with Colombia staff busy.


    Everyone entered the venue one after another, and the movie was similar to Sundance, and they were shocked and exclaimed. Uma Thurman was a big shot on the screen, **** and fierce and handsome.


    "This girl is so cool!"


    "I can imagine her slashing around with a samurai knife."


    "She should make some more intense movies!"


    The discussion came from all over the place, Umathurman frowned and whispered: "Has I been stereotyped? What should I do if I have this kind of drama in the future?"


    "You are a newcomer and don''t need to consider these things. It''s the most important thing to make a name for yourself."


    "Then will you ask me to film in the future?"


    "Yes! I like watching you chop people, too."


    Tsk!


    Umathurman resonates with the sisters in Hong Kong, this guy is so annoying.


    "Wow!"


    "Wow!"


    The screening ended soon and there was a regular press conference.


    Chen Qi still forced himself to make value and spitted: "This is not a simple plasma film to kill blood. I hope the audience can see the power and awakening contained in it. A minor girl assumes the responsibility of "father" and takes revenge. , go challenge..."


    "Of course, it doesn''t matter if you don''t like it, it''s still very pleasant in terms of view."


    "We will have two more movies this year, one is a superhero story and the other is a youth comedy. Thank you for your support!"


    Without big stars, Chen Qi is also a good person to take it out. There are many media coming. After asking some questions, one of the reporters said: "The Last Emperor directed by Betoruc is to be filmed in the capital. The emperor of China is presented by an Italian director. What do you think?"


    "I don''t have any ideas. I am a Chinese and I am also showing the growth of American teenagers!"


    Chen Qi joked and said seriously: "The emperor has passed away for less than 20 years, and many people who have experienced his story are still alive. I only hope that director Bettorucci can respect historical facts, not film according to what he imagined. ”


    "Do you don''t believe in his abilities or do you don''t believe in his position?"


    The reporter''s eyes lit up and he grasped the key points.


    "Of course not! I trust this international director very much, I just give a little advice. I heard that he will start the film in the summer, and I just happened to have time and should go to the tent team."


    After answering this question, Chen Qi signaled to end.


    Colombia has prepared a car and the two are going to have an exclusive interview with a newspaper.


    Umathurman sat in the car and suddenly said, "Don''t you like that Bettorucci?"


    "Who said it? I like it very much."


    No mistakes, one song, one content, one in 6, one book, one bar, one reading!


    "I already know you very well, and you definitely don''t like him."


    Umathurman lowered his voice and said, "Actually I''ve seen his movie, the "The Last Tango in Paris."


    "How old did you see it?"


    "At 13 years old, I watched the videotape."


    She looked at Chen Qi''s playful gaze, without any shyness, and said openly: "I''m not as shy and conservative as Chinese. I think it''s normal. Isn''t it just a whole story of sex?"


    "I''m still shy and conservative if we don''t discuss this."


    "The Last Tango in Paris" is a 1972 film starring Marlon Brando and Maria Schneider, one is 48 years old and the other is 19 years old.


    It tells the story of two strangers meeting by chance, and then inexplicably in an apartment with only one mattress, having **** like an animal, all kinds of howlings, quirks, abuse... It expresses confusion, reflection, depression, and loneliness.


    Bettorucci also filmed "Stealing Incense", starring Liv Taylor, and is naked. There is also "Dream of the Drama", starring Eva Green, and the scale is even greater. It’s art!


    Many European directors are flirting with the idea that **** is art, and that no **** is not art, and emotions must be expressed through sex. And a true master never relies on selling meat to attract attention.


    ...


    The next day, the comments of "Little Sweetheart" came out.


    Chen Qi can bribe Sundance''s reporters, but cannot buy mainstream media across the United States, and Colombia cannot do it either.


    "A very unforgettable movie, in order to avenge my sister, a minor girl planned a murder alone in the face of three young and powerful men. The comparison of age and strength made the process thrilling."


    "This is the most exciting film I have watched in the past few months! Too many movies to hide it, and it is so gentle. It''s so cool and rough like "Little Sweetheart"!"


    "The perverted director, illogical story, mentally retarded opponent, exaggerated heroine - the most ugly movie I''ve ever seen this year!"


    "Don''t believe the nonsense of that Chinese! "Little Sweetheart" is a B-level plasma film, and there is no awakening or independence at all!"


    “Umathurman is a surprise!”


    "A rough, lies-in-one semi-finished product!"


    There are praises and criticisms, which has caused some discussion and controversy, and has prompted more audiences to enter the cinema. Overall, the response was better than Chen Qi expected. After the seven-day release, it won more than 4 million yuan in box office.


    Both he and Colombia breathed a sigh of relief, and their final destination was about 10 million.


    Domestic film companies share the accounts, just 30%.


    However, the theater chain in the United States is a weaker side, and the way of sharing accounts is very complicated. On average, the film company can get about 50% of the box office. Calculated at 10 million, Chen Qi can get more than 3 million US dollars after excluding the agency fee in Colombia.


    And for such films, videotapes are the big deal.
