Chapter 725

"After breaking the first-day box office record, "Machine Lovers" is now completely unstoppable. ”

"'Machine Lovers' is truly Marl's directorial style, and the film continues to go strong at the box office. ”

Lin Chen said in an interview that domestic films should be self-reliant, but first of all, they should start from not fooling the audience. ”

On the day of the open media visit of "The Matrix", Lin Chen once again DISS Liang You when he was interviewed. ”

……

The media reported on it.

It's really "Machine Lovers" is too strong.

It will be released from Tuesday and will have a box office of 500 million on the first day.

Immediately afterwards, the single-day box office on Wednesday was 200 million, and on Thursday it was slightly lower, 190 million, but on Friday it rose again to 210 million.

That's not all, the box office of 700 million on Saturdays and Sundays is unleashed.

In 6 days, the box office of "Machine Lovers" won 1.8 billion.

This brutal box office really shocked everyone and made them speechless.

Blockbuster!

Blockbuster!!

A real blockbuster!!

In the previous movies, many people may have other ideas, whether it is to follow the trend or imitate it, the advent of this blockbuster era is quite touching for other film and television companies and directors in the industry.

Monday, 9 a.m., a cinema in the imperial capital.

It stands to reason that on weekdays, it is 9 o'clock again, and there should not be many people in Hall 3, where "Machine Lovers" is playing, but Luo Hai simply calculated, and the attendance rate was almost three.

That's really amazing.

For this movie, Luo Hai and Luo Qingge haven't watched it yet, they just watched the trailer intermittently and discussed, and they are ready to watch this movie when they are busy.

Then after watching it, Luo Hai also sighed: "It is indeed normal for such a movie to have a high box office, and it turned out to be a Hollywood movie to teach our audience a lesson." ”

"There's no way, we can't make such a movie in China. ”

Luo Qing smiled bitterly: "If we could shoot a film like this, then we would have been fucking inflated." ”

After leaving the cinema, Luo Hai shook his head and said: "I think the era of blockbusters may really come, you look at the box office of Lin Chen's "Journey to the West" and "Truman's World", and then think about the production cost of "The Matrix" he is shooting now, I think we also have to change our thinking logic." ”

Luo Qing nodded slightly, but he was a little worried: "But brother, the premise for us to shoot a good film is that the script is good, and you don't have Lin Chen's ability to write the script, if the script is not good, we are afraid that we will die a miserable death if we smack the money." ”

Listening to Luo Qing's words, Luo Hai was ready to be too lazy to take care of his younger brother for the time being.

Nima.

I can't talk about it at all.

……

Not only Luo Hai, but other directors also began to explore a possibility at this time.

That is, it may be impossible for Mal's flip operation to be applied to himself?

We don't have to make sci-fi films.

We can shoot Xianxia.

Or we can shoot a fantasy film.

After all, for Huaxia, the background in this area is quite strong, "Journey to the West" is a bad film, but it is completely possible to shoot something else, and Huaxia is not only one "Journey to the West".

The industry has also been discussing it recently, and everyone has an idea.

Not to mention that other film and television companies have further accepted blockbusters in the future.

Everyone has a misconception.

Even if I'm on it, I can do it.

Since Mal's "Machine Lovers" was a success, why can't we?

Everyone is one shoulder and two eggs, why do you succeed and I won't succeed?

It is said that in the past week, film and television companies have begun to ask screenwriters to write scripts, saying that they are going to shoot some large-scale fantasy or fairy tale movies.

So far, "Machine Lovers" is already the undisputed blockbuster of 2022, and even other movies are not challenging at all, all of them are on their knees.

Other directors either have a recurrent mood, or are amazed and shocked and think that I can do it, and some just just want to kneel and lick the old and the new.

Among these people, perhaps only Lin Chen's mood was slightly indifferent.

Because he believes that when "The Matrix" comes out, that is the time when he comes out of the protagonist mode of Xuancheng.

Now that "The Matrix" has not come out again, no matter how much you say, no matter how much you say, no one will believe it.

Let the facts speak for themselves.

For this reason, Lin Chen no longer cares about the outside world's discussion of "Machine Lovers", "The Return of the Flying Dragon" and "Detective Chinatown".

Of course, the popularity of the movie should be slightly reduced in the future.

Because on July 16th, the 'Popular Film Awards' will start recording, and then it will be broadcast on the evening prime time of Modu Satellite TV on July 20th.

As mentioned before, the chairman of this year's executive committee is Ping Qingtian, and at the same time, the judges are also composed of professors from the three major schools of Shanghai Opera, Chinese Opera and Jinghua, basically for fairness, justice and openness.

Of course, the propaganda must be so promoted.

And yesterday, Ping Qingtian also returned from Hollywood, and specially accepted an exclusive interview with the film newspaper, in the interview, Ping Qingtian also said a lot, such as domestic movies are too uncreative now, and the most important thing is that domestic film themes are overflowing, a movie is successful, and countless movies are following suit.

And then inevitably I also talked about the movie "Machine Lovers".

Ping Qingtian said that he was not surprised at all by the box office explosion of the movie "Machine Lovers".

First of all, Mal is known for his professionalism and seriousness, and more importantly, Mal can stabilize his mind to shoot movies, but on the other hand, some domestic directors are full of money, full of so-called box office, and some directors are all kinds of popularity, hype and so on for the box office.

For these directors, Ping Qingtian did not name them, he just expressed his hope that young directors can have fewer routines and be more serious, don't think that they are the best in the world, either bombarding this or that.

This interview was reported word for word by a reporter from the film newspaper, and then the topic also came out.

"By the way, who is Ping Qingtian talking about?"

"I don't know, it's hard to guess, he can't say Liang You. ”

"How is it possible, who doesn't know the relationship between Ping Qingtian and Liang You, and the words of other directors can't be sure. ”

"Is it possible that Chu Kun has made bad movies in the past two years? ”

"It's possible, but Ping Qingtian is talking about the younger generation of directors, and among the younger generation of directors, it seems that I am Lin Chen. ”

"Don't say it, this is still really possible, Lin Chen and Liang You are tearing it up, if Ping Qingtian doesn't help his relatives, it's really possible. ”

"Hahaha, I think you're thinking too much, don't say anything else, I don't think Ping Qingtian is this kind of person. ”

……

Netizens are discussing more and more intensely, after all, if Ping Qingtian did not name him in this interview, then anyone has a chance.

On the other hand, there is more discussion about who will win the Best Director, Best Actor, Best Actress and other awards this time.

It stands to reason that Lin Chen can be called what everyone expects.

Not to mention anything else, the box office of the two movies "Journey to the West" and "Truman's World" is very good, and the commercialization is a success.

At the same time, the two roles of Monkey King and Truman played by Lin Chen are completely different, one is nonsensical and crazy, the other is optimistic and cheerful but looks a little melancholy, and the two roles also have very high requirements for the acting skills of actors.

As for the soundtrack, the soundtrack of "Journey to the West" is also a classic.

Not to mention several characters such as Zixia Fairy, the second master, and the blind man in "Journey to the West".

"Truman's World" is nominated for best cinematography and best special effects.

How to say it.

The two films "Journey to the West" and "Truman's World" have been nominated for almost 12 awards, and everyone has begun to predict that Lin Chen will become the biggest winner at this year's 'Popular Film Awards'.

As the time approached, Lin Chen also arranged the affairs of the "Matrix" crew, and then set off for the magic capital.

Basically, the creators of the two movies "Journey to the West" and "Truman's World" will go to the magic capital.

Because all the nominees have been nominated, although everyone knows that they can't win all the awards, but for the supporting actors, it is also excellent to be able to mix a familiar one.

On July 16th, Lin Chen arrived in the magic capital.

At 3 o'clock in the afternoon, the red carpet was walked, and the organizer hoped that the main creators of the two movies "Journey to the West" and "Truman's World" would appear together, but Lin Chen agreed.

After all, they are all their own people.

Gao Jingjing, Tong Qing, Zhu Qian, Kong Liang, Liu Tian, Zhang Da, Pang Tong and other main creators of "Journey to the West", among which Zhang Da and Pang Tong needless to say, these two Lin Chen are ready to be cultivated for a long time, and Cai Xia is now faintly the first sister of Xinghuo Film and Television.

As for Xiao Ming, the actor of "Truman's World", needless to say, this is Lin Chen's person, and as for Song Lie, the actor will definitely attend today.

At the same time, Tong Qing and Cai Xia are also actors in "Truman's World".

So there is too much overlap between the two films.

In this way, everyone can get enough attention when they walk the red carpet together.

In the afternoon, there was a lot of media on both sides of the red carpet early.

In addition to the two films "Journey to the West" and "Truman's World", there are also four films in the excitement of the 'Popular Film Awards' this time, and the directors of these four films are all Mesozoic directors.

Coincidentally, this time, the 'Popular Film Award' did not have the works of top directors shortlisted, it is not that there are no top directors to shoot films, but perhaps in the eyes of the judges, top directors are not among them.

The host is introducing the guests on the red carpet one by one.

Luo Qing won two nominations for his movie "The Four Generals", the box office of this movie has just exceeded 100 million, but it is very creative, so one of the nominations is the best original screenplay.

Of course, Luo Qing must have appeared with his brother Luo Hai.

After all, the script of "The Four Generals" was written by Luo Hai.

The two were naturally interviewed, and Luo Hai began to blow Lin Chen: "I didn't expect to win the award, because I am personally very optimistic that "Truman's World" will win the Best Original Screenplay Award." ”

Luo Qing also said that although he was nominated for Best Director, Lin Chen is too awesome, and he is not an opponent.

The two of them belong to a praising of it.

But others are not so talkative.

After all, Lin Chen's popularity in the director circle is not very good, and the director of the Mesozoic Generation, Ren Yi, just looks down on Lin Chen, after all, Ren Yi was on the side of the movie "The Return of the Flying Dragon" at that time, so isn't Lin Chen scolding him for standing in line?

Ren Yi won three nominations for "The Master of Shushan", this is a Xianxia movie, this time and space has the IP of Shushan, although the box office of "The Master of Shushan" is not very good, but Ren Yi can be regarded as making a blockbuster.

After all, in Chinese movies, Xianxia is rare.

He said in an interview: "I always think we should shoot our own blockbusters, "Machine Lovers" is good, and this movie can also be said to tell all of us that the blockbuster era has come, and I will continue to shoot Xianxia-themed movies in the future, because I believe that Huaxia's Xianxia-themed movies are still in their infancy." ”

"Yes, I am very confident in winning the best director, I admire Lin Chen's directing ability, but I don't like this person, I don't like it, I don't like it. ”

"He doesn't know how to shoot blockbusters, does he understand Xianxia? He doesn't understand. ”

……

Ren Yi's words are also full of gunpowder.

IMMEDIATELY AFTERWARDS, SEVERAL OTHER DIRECTORS DIDN'T KNOW IF IT WAS DISCUSSED, THIS GUY IS SIMPLY EVERYONE WHO CAN'T WAIT TO DISS LIN CHEN A FEW WORDS.

Finally, it's time for Lin Chen.

The host also inevitably asked Lin Chen this question.

"Personally, I think it's good to follow fate, and I don't care about winning a few awards, I think it's okay to be recognized by everyone. ”

"What? You said Ren Yi said I don't understand Xianxia?"

"He knows what a fart, look at what he has done in "The Master of Shushan"?"

……

Well, the host suddenly didn't know how to answer.

Compared with Ren Yi, Lin Chen's speech was more direct.

Then I had to move on to something else.

For example, how was the filming of "The Matrix"?

For example, what are the plans for the future, etc.

In this regard, Lin Chen answered them one by one.

When it is hard and when it is soft, Lin Chen still knows very well in his heart.

In addition to Lin Chen, the other leading actors also interviewed a few sentences in turn, and then left their names on the signature wall, let the media take pictures, and entered the venue when they were done.

The actors' seating arrangements for the two movies "Truman's World" and "Journey to the West" are just in the middle, which is quite suitable.

Lin Chen's narration was none other than Luo Qing.

"Director Lin. ”

Luo Qing also had long lost the mentality of the original competition, and he said with a smile: "I will congratulate you in advance." ”
