Chapter 172: The First Day Box Office
After watching "Tired of Winning", Song Jiang was not as excited as his peers.
The movie is good.
Whether it is rhythm, martial arts, or literary drama, it is the best choice.
It even has a connotation and depth that people can savor.
But...... And it didn't amaze him.
After all, this is not a "parallel world of barren culture and entertainment", but a world of developed culture and entertainment.
Even compared with Zhang Hong's previous life, because of Wu Dingguo's efforts and the strength of the country, the entertainment industry in this world is more developed than Zhang Hong's original world.
So what kind of movies with depth many people have made.
Even what Zhang Hong wants to express has been filmed by the director.
"Disgusted with Victory" has a prototype.
This is a real event that happened in "My Great Qing Dynasty".
This event has long been written in a book, and even a documentary has been made.
Although Zhang Hong's handling of the overhead is ingenious, it is ultimately a wisdom from the predecessors.
However, 99% of the movies are like this, to put it bluntly, there is nothing wrong with Zhang Hong's approach.
And he handled it well.
If Song Jiang is asked to score, "Tired of Winning" can be given 7.5 points.
It's just that in his heart, "Idol Legend" is a real masterpiece!
If he comes to score, "Idol Legend" with a score of less than 9 is shady!
He can't wait to go back and write a review of "Idol Legend" now.
But I can't get back.
Because he still has to watch the next movie.
Wang Zhi's "Qingcheng Dart Game".
............
This night, many people who watched Zhang Hong's movie had insomnia.
Anyway, there are those people that Zhang Hong knows.
There are also people who don't watch movies but also have insomnia.
Zhang Hong and his father Zhang Hao.
It's just that the reasons for the insomnia of the two are just the opposite.
Zhang Hong is worried that the box office will hit the street and he will lose home.
His dad was worried that the box office would be too successful.
Either way, the box office on the first day won't be known until the next night.
The next day was the first day of the Lunar New Year, and I was supposed to spend it at my grandparents' house.
However, Zhang Hong's family has three generations of single inheritance, and there are no other uncles and aunts or anything.
It is even more impossible for distant relatives to be here, and even Zhang Yuanying went home for the New Year.
Even last night she sent a message to Zhang Hong.
This kid is also unlucky.
Last night, she was going to go to the movie theater with her parents to watch the movie she starred in, but the theater over there had a power outage and she didn't see anything.
It is equivalent to saying that the box office contribution of an entire theater is missing......
Zhang Hong also comforted her in turn and said that she was fine.
As everyone knows, Zhang Hong's heartache was uncomfortable at that time.
I don't know how much box office this movie theater will lose in one night......
Fortunately, he asked Zhang Yuanying that the theater was not large.
Otherwise, the next time I see my distant little cousin, I will let her understand what "brother's love" is.
At the beginning of the Lunar New Year, Zhang Hong originally wanted to go to the movies, but his father didn't allow it.
Zhang Hao insisted that Zhang Hong accompany them to play mahjong!
Zhang Hong didn't want Lao Zhang to say that he was not filial!
He had no choice but to sit down at the mahjong table.
Now he just wants to know how much the first-day box office really was.
............
Even on the first day of the Lunar New Year, Wang Zhi did not go home for the New Year.
As soon as the video with his wife and son ended, he opened the entertainment pages of major websites and watched movie reviews and reports.
This year's Spring Festival stalls are not very strong as a whole.
Except for his and Zhang Hong's movies, there are few that can be played - in the past few years, those movies that can be played have been released in October National Day.
He is confident in his films, but ......
Alas, he is not confident again now.
If Zhang Hong's movie is only "Tired of Winning", he is very confident that he can beat Zhang Hong.
The two films are pretty much the same overall.
They are all the same type of costume martial arts themes, but they all have a certain depth, and they are not exactly about martial arts.
In terms of the story's drama, logic and editing, he is stronger than Zhang Hong.
But in the martial arts, pictures, music and other parts, he is a little worse than Zhang Hong.
If you compare these two movies alone, he can win 100%.
It's a pity that Zhang Hong also has a "Idol Legend".
If "Qingcheng Dart Game" and "Tired of Winning" can be regarded as relatively outstanding movies this year.
Then "Idol Legend" is really a legend.
According to Wu Dingguo, this movie can be regarded as a benchmark in the genre of "inspirational youth drama".
In other words, when the classic films of various genres are counted in the future, "Idol Legend" will definitely be the one that can't be jumped.
He didn't worry about Zhang Hong's street now.
With one movie, he did what he hadn't done for more than ten years.
His current mood is probably the same as the mood of other TV series directors after Zhang Hong made his debut and filmed "Clouds Fall into Red Dust".
What he is praying for now is that Zhang Hong's film schedule is not so high, so that he still has hope of winning.
However, when he saw the film review of the well-known film critic Song Jiang on the Internet, his good mood was completely ruined.
["Tired of Winning" is a decent movie, with a decent plot, decent actors' performances, decent music, and a decent Wuda.
Maybe the director wants to express something with deep connotation, but this deliberateness makes the result presented to the audience seem very empty.
It's a good movie, but it's not a movie to savor.
However, as a young director who is only 25 years old and is only making a film for the first time, we have reason to expect more from director Zhang Hong's future.
His future is very promising. 】
["Qingcheng Dart Game" is also such a movie. It has something better than "Tired of Win" and some of it is worse than "Tired of Win".
Overall, this is a film as decent as "Tired of Winning".
But we won't expect Director Wang Zhi as much as we expect Director Zhang Hong, because he is already a veteran of the film industry, and making such a decent movie can only be said to be just passing. 】
[Also as a work directed by Zhang Hong, it is difficult for people to believe that "Idol Legend" is a movie that was made at the same time as "Tired of Victory".
The same director, the same screenwriter, the same shooting team, the same post-production team, and even the shooting time and actors are interspersed.
When we saw that the bitter male protagonist in "Tired of Victory" became the unlucky 'only policeman in the whole village' in "Idol Legend", the depression brought by "Tired of Victory" was quickly dispelled.
When you first see "Idol Legend", you will think that this is a youth inspirational song and dance film.
When the heroine is knocked into the air, you would think that it was a sensational film.
When she turns into a zombie, you'd think it's a thriller.
When the agent played by director Zhang Hong himself appears, you will think that this is a nonsensical comedy.
When the teenage zombies perform on stage, you will think that this is a youth song and dance film.
As a result, when you watch the whole movie, you will find that this is indeed a youth inspirational song and dance film, just like you thought at the beginning.
No, I'd rather call it a nonsensical hot-blooded inspirational magic idol song and dance film.
This is a work you must not miss in this year's Spring Festival movies!
Although director Zhang Hong is a rookie director who is making a movie for the first time, he is no longer a future warrior with a promising future.
In my opinion, he is already a great director.
If he can maintain this level in his later works, then there will definitely be a place for him in the highest hall of honor in the world film industry in the future!
Wang Zhi was a little dizzy.
He knows this Song Jiang, a very famous film critic.
Because of the spicy and fair language, it is not low in popularity and very authoritative.
In the past, his movies have been sprayed a lot.
But this time he actually gave Zhang Hong such a high evaluation......
At this time, the assistant, who was also forced to work overtime, pushed the door in:
"Director Wang, the box office is out on the first day!"
Wang Zhi's spirit was shocked, and he hurried to the results of the information.
He quickly found his own film.
"Qingcheng Dart Game", first-day box office: 33.7137 million (including the premiere box office of 2.1755 million).
He hurriedly went to find Zhang Hong's movie box office again.
"Tired of Winning", first-day box office: 29.9644 million (including the premiere box office of 8.1451 million).
He breathed a sigh of relief.
Although the difference between the box office of "Tired of Win" and his "Qingcheng Dart Game" is only a few million.
But quite a few of it were brought by night clubs.
And Zhang Hong's movie schedule is basically concentrated at night.
So judging from this trend, he is still stronger.
If this trend is followed, the gap will widen and widen.
But he only relaxed a little.
Because of the box office of "Idol Legend", he hasn't watched it yet.
Turning the second page, he saw the data for that movie.
Then he froze on the spot like a wood carving.
"Idol Legend", first-day box office: 60.0577 million (including the premiere box office of 22.4413 million). ”
This is...... It's going to explode!
