Chapter 92 "Love Saint" begins filming
"The Maze of Heart" is definitely a good movie, otherwise Chen Lin would not be able to invest, and it would be even more impossible to help shake the flag and shout!
In fact, looking at Chen Lin’s investment in film projects over the years, most of his works were box office hits.
I finally reborn once, but I knew I would lose money, so why do I still have to invest?
However, this time investment in "The Maze of Heart" may be an exception. The reason why Chen Lin spent 20 million was very simple, that is, he didn't want the good movie to be buried!
Even in 2015 years, the quality of "My Heart Maze" can still rank among the top three of the year.
However, "The Maze of Heart" does not have the possibility of a box office hit. Even if Chen Lin has invested its investment to 20 million, Qi Yukun can still use some professional actors.
The suspense theme itself is niche, not to mention that "The Maze of Heart" is a more niche rural suspense plot.
Moreover, Qi Yukun is a bit similar to Chen Lin. He doesn’t trust young actors. If he finds a traffic leader to join, his influence will definitely be several times higher.
Look at the actors he chose, Fu Dalong, Wang Qianyuan, and Wu Gang, all of them are powerful, but they have no box office appeal.
As I said, rural themes are of course an important part of Chinese movies, but there are no cinemas in the village!
How many of the audience who are really willing to pay for movies are interested in the countryside?
First Xining Youth Film Festival has been held for nine sessions, and its influence has gradually spread. The ability of "The Maze of Heart" to stand out in such a film festival represents its quality.
In other words, we invested in this movie by Lin Shao, and it was not for money.
Of course, it would be better if the cost could be recovered.
Before Shen Lin praised "The Maze of Heart", a group of powerful players had already praised and recommended the movie, Huang Bo, Ge You, Qin Hailu, and director Cao Baoping.
No use.
On the day of its release on January 16, the screening volume of "The Maze of Heart" was only 5% and the box office was also very poor, not reaching 40,000.
However, its reputation has spread very well, and major professional film review websites have given ratings of more than 8.5 points.
In particular, director Qi Yukun is called the next genius director - the first two directors who received such praise are Ning Hao and Wu Ershan.
On the evening of January 16, Chen Lin personally wrote a film review, specifically praising "The Maze of Heart"
There are thousands of words, and only two sentences to summarize.
The first sentence: I am Chen Lin, you should trust my vision;
The second sentence: "The Maze of Heart" is very good and worth watching.
The next day, January 17, the movie "My Heart" earned 90,000 yuan in a single day. Although it still failed to exceed 10 million yuan, it increased by more than twice as much as the first day of the filming.
"Thank you for your praise, especially Director Chen Lin, who not only invested in this drama, but also helped select actors..."
Qi Yukun was so excited that he responded to Chen Lin on Weibo.
The original normal seniors are supporting their juniors, but the donation for Bazaar Celebrity Charity Night was announced recently, and Shen Lin was at the forefront.
Then, a bunch of brainless fans who were committed to maintaining their idols came again, shouting "money laundering" and "disclaimer". Many of them went to film review websites to give "The Maze of Heart" a star, and then took screenshots to Chen Lin.
He also went online proudly to prove that he had vented his anger for his idol.
No wonder the saint of medicine Li Shizhen couldn't help but write in "Compendium of Materia Medica" that "Therefore, those who are brainless have no cure for treatment!"
It made Chen Lin very annoyed and directly said to Weibo, "My brain is a good thing, but some people just don't!"
Fortunately, most netizens are still brains. With this wave of debate, "The Maze of Heart" actually exceeded 15 million for three consecutive days.
As of January 21, the cumulative box office of "The Maze of Heart" has been released for 5 days to reach 5.68 million yuan. Although it is not a lot, it has passed the expectation of Chen Lin and Qi Yukun.
Box office alone is enough to recover costs.

"Old Xiao, can you not laugh so obscenely? You have to have a hint of appreciation, just the feeling of wanting to sleep with a beautiful woman very simply..."
On the set of "Love Saint", Chen Lin was a little unsatisfied with Xiao Yang's performance just now.
Well, Chen Lin’s new movie "Love Saint" has started filming.
"Director, what does it mean to 'just go to bed'"
Xiao Yang shook his head helplessly, unable to understand what Chen Lin said.
"Have you watched "Beautiful Life"? It's the look of the male protagonist Guido confessing to his wife!"
Chen Lin thought about it and found an example that fits slightly.
"Beautiful Life" is the saying, 'You can't think of it, how much I long to do it with you, not only do it once, but also do it again and again', 'I want to do it now, for a lifetime.'"
Xiao Yang obviously saw this movie and quickly got the meaning of Chen Lin.
"Well, you think about it carefully and give you ten minutes."
Xiao Yang frowned and turned his head to look at Xue Zhiqian who was bored beside him.
"Old Xue, come here, let's have a fight."
"What the hell? I have no rivalry with you in this period!"
Xue Zhiqian said no, but he ran to Xiao Yang honestly.
"You can help me see, what's my look?"
“…”
The entire crew of "Love Saint" has a very harmonious relationship, especially between Xiao Yang and Lao Xue. Both of them were originally musicians, but there were too many topics to talk about.
Seeing Xiao Yang winking at Xue Zhiqian seriously, Chen Lin shook his head and walked towards Tong Liya who was putting on makeup not far away.
Tong Liya plays the girl in red in "Love Saint".
"Sister Yaya, you are very suitable for wearing brightly colored clothes."
Chen Lin looked at Tong Liya in a red long skirt with a little admiration.
"Is that true? Will you lose your color when you are old?"
Tong Liya blinked at Chen Lin, with a smirk on her face.
"How is that possible."
Chen Lin noticed something was wrong and quickly cried out.
"But someone said that even those who are over three years old will not consider it!"
"Ahem, let's talk about the show."
I can only blame myself for being frivolous and too pretentious.
When I was interviewed, I said, "I can't feel anything to women over three years older than me!"
"Okay, how did I act just now?"
After all, it’s the crew, so you should be more restrained.
"Well, you were a little wild and restrained just now. Also, when you smile, it is best to squint your eyes. Your expression just now gives people a sense of fierceness."
Chen Lin thought about the suggestions.
"is that so?"
Yaya looked at Chen Lin, pulled the corner of her mouth, and 8 teeth were automatically exposed.
"No, you're too stiff when you smile like this."
Chen Lin felt a little annoyed. Although Yaya is beautiful, she really doesn’t smile naturally.
"That part just now was obviously paying tribute to Marilyn Monroe. I'll let them push the camera to your face. It's a big close-up, you..."
Chapter completed!
