Chapter Thirty-Eight: Nobody Cares... (1/5)

Lao Hu is also one of the leading actors in "Walking with God", the three-time male protagonist of the Eight Classics...

Similarly, he is also the number one man in "Search".

At the premiere, many people asked him what he thought of "Walking with God" and "Search".

"These two are not the same type, there is no comparison..."

""Walking with God" was filmed in the second half of 10 years, and "Search" was filmed last year, and I didn't think so much about it when I was filming, who knew that the two dramas would collide!"

“... Of course I hope it all does well at the box office..."

The answer is decent...

That's the only way to go, you can't say what you're thinking, right?

He... I really didn't dare to tell Lao Chen what was in my heart.

The most widely circulated is the screenwriter of "Farewell My Concubine" and "Alive", Mr. Reed;

At that time, filming "Jing Ke Assassinates the King of Qin", Lu Wei felt that there was a problem with the script, listed more than 20 opinions, and went to find Lao Chen, it happened that Jiang Wen was also there, and Jiang Wen was not satisfied with the script.

But Lao Chen couldn't listen to their opinions at all, and Lu Wei felt that he had fulfilled his obligations as a friend, so he didn't care.

Later, for the script of "Wuji", Lu Wei still felt that there was something wrong with the script, but he didn't expect Lao Chen to be more firm than when he was in "Jing Ke Assassinated the King of Qin", saying that this was a good book.

When it comes to this, everyone who understands understands that it's not good to compare with others anymore.

Another example, Zhang Jinzhan - Director Chen's executive director in the early years, after "Jing Ke Assassinated the King of Qin", he never worked together again...

This is also the difference between him and Amou, Amou's photographer Zhao Xiaoding has been cooperating...

Even the brothers who accompanied the country in the early years are no longer together, Lao Hu is a fart...

......

"Walking with God" wreaked havoc on the market was predictable!

Special effects, big stars, a nice story.

These three points are the theoretical basis for Hollywood movies to be popular all over the world, but Hollywood stories are often high-concept...

Not to mention the explosion of the mainland, Hong Kong, Southeast Asia, including Japanese benzene, have successively refreshed various records.

According to the prediction, the box office of this movie in Asia is likely to break the record of 300 million US dollars!

Any phenomenal movie that hits big enough will have a murmur...

Even "The Wandering Earth" has a kind of people singing down, let alone "Walking with God"...

Singing and decaying points:

1: The story is too long, and the characters lack motivation;

2: It's too sensational, it feels sensational for the sake of sensationalism;

3: The movie almost completely collapsed, the preaching was boring and boring, in order to cook a pot of rancid chicken soup, a large number of CG special effects were just to show off their skills, and the actors had no room to play!

Belch...

The first two points, Shen Mengxi expected - this is the shortcoming of Korean-style blockbusters, although Korean films are highly respected, they have no roots, and they do not have their own thick and long-standing culture.

As a result, its blockbuster has a kimchi flavor: no matter how big the format is and how amazing the production is, Korean films can't escape the narrow foothold of Korean sensationalism.

The same goes for the "Walking with God" comic...

When her mother was sick and had no money at home, she wanted to kill her mother and younger brother and then commit suicide, and when her younger brother found out, she punched and kicked her younger brother to death, and then left her unconscious mother and young brother and ran away from home?

This potential violent gene, personality trait, in the next 15 years, has a super transformation in a blink of an eye: working hard beyond the limit, disregarding his own safety in order to save others, and being sentenced to justice by hell?

The most popular one is: the release of domestic protection month, depriving consumers of the right to choose freely, relying on policies to make black money.

It's hard to understand, how can the right to choose be denied?

You don't have to look at it!

The publicity team has been working hard to maintain word of mouth, and Shen Mengxi had already said at the beginning of the release, 'This movie is not perfect...'

As for the domestic film protection month...

The well-known UP master of potatoes, Guangmu Mu Haifeng, posted a Weibo:

"First, the schedule of "Walking with God" is good, people announced that it will be released on June 28 this year the year before last, and other films can't reach such a box office with the same schedule!"

"Second, to protect domestic films, every country in the world has corresponding policies, movies are not just movies, but also an ideology, those who say that the plot of "Walking with God" is not good, if you change Hollywood actors to play this movie, do you still think the story is not good? In the end, after kneeling for a long time, you can't stand up!"

"Third, the blockbusters you want to see will be introduced, and the release will be postponed for a month or two at most, and the Japanese often postpone the release of Hollywood blockbusters for half a year, and I haven't seen other audiences chatter..."

"Fourth, what does it mean to deprive you of the freedom to watch movies? You can choose to watch it or not, where are there so many complaints?"

"Fifth..."

posted five Weibo posts in a row, reprimanding many voices who sang "Walking with God"...

He has more than 300,000 Weibo fans, which is not a top V, but it is okay...

Then Shen Mengxi liked it, Wu Ershan liked it, and Chen Kun also liked it...

Immediately, this Weibo was on the hot search!

......

In the next few days, it was completely a PK between the side that supported "Walking with God" and denied domestic films.

If you like it, you will say: "What else do you want to be able to combine the elements and genres of special effects fighting, family ethics, court defense, soul travel, gods and ghosts, and humor and comedy in one movie?"

If you don't like it, you say: "The special effects are five cents, the aesthetics of all scenes are completely unified, messy, patchwork, bad movies in your country!"

If you like it, you will say: "This is the "Oriental Commercial Blockbuster", a good concept + visual impact + Oriental emotions throughout it, I am full of confidence in domestic films!"

Those who don't like it are: "The logic is full of loopholes! I want to tell a story that is not very good and touching in an unusual way, so I think of an idea of a hell trial that I think is awesome, but I can't justify it, and the result is nondescript, and I have completely become garbage that is worse than ordinary! Therefore, it is necessary to have real skills to make a mystery, or it is better to tell a good story!"

It's not the kind of debate with mixed reviews - the score is still stable at 7.6 points, which belongs to the category of excellent commercial films.

According to the editorial of "People's Daily": "Painted Skin" created the concept of oriental magic films, and "Walking with God" integrates oriental legends and stories with western concepts such as defense and trial... Hit all over Asia!

(You in the middle make up)

That's right, it is indeed popular all over Asia, and the box office in South Korea reached 7 million welcomes after 11 days of release;

Singapore, Thailand, Vietnam, Malaysia, and Indonesia set a box office record of $19 million in 11 days;

Japanese benzene, released for 10 days, the box office reached 1.9 billion yen;

The big head, of course, is the Chinese market, which reported 360 million in three days the next weekend, successfully pushing the cumulative box office to 940 million!

Breaking 900 million in 11 days...

And one step away from 1 billion ...

surpassed the speed of "Titanic", and also exceeded the box office record of domestic films held by "Painted Skin 3" for one year...

Shen Mengxi personally posted on Weibo to thank: "Thank you for the audience's support, the second script of "Walking with God" has been perfected, and a new Stove God character has been added, guess who it will be?"

As for Lao Chen's "Search"...

28 million in the first weekend, the results are not bad, ranking second in a single week, but no one pays attention.

- The first is the 584 million in a single week of "Walking with God";

Even if Lao Chen receives various interviews and brushes up on his sense of existence, it is useless, many people who have watched "Search" directly questioned and borrowed from "Hunting"...
