Chapter 409: A New Record

The image of the Yellow Emperor and Chi You is indeed a problem. A key point is that the opposition between "good and evil" in this war is not so clear.

In the role of Chi You, Lu Lin did not portray him as an extremely evil demon as written in some literary works, to set off the greatness and correctness of the two emperors of "Yan and Huang".

In terms of personality, it may be closer to the real history, the loser who competed with the "Yellow Emperor" to dominate the world. Chi You in the movie is completely a "hero"-like character, but his luck is not in the Wu clan.

The image of the Yellow Emperor is not as touching as Hou Yi and Nuwa, which is mainly a matter of roles. In "Hou Yi Shoots the Sun", the audience can completely substitute emotions into Hou Yi, and the development of the plot is largely driven by Hou Yi.

In "Nuwa Mends the Sky", the heroine's role in promoting the plot is worse than that of "Houyi Shooting the Sun".

By the time of "The Battle of the Deer", what the film showed was more of the feeling of the characters rising with the trend in the general trend of history.

For example, in the historical tide of the alternation of the old and new regimes, without Zhu Yuanzhang and Chen Youliang, there would be others to overthrow the Yuan Dynasty. Without Li Zicheng and Zhang Xianzhong, there will be other grass kings.

In this film, the Yellow Emperor is a little too "helpful", a little bit of King Wu of Zhou in "Romance of the Gods". The work is all done by the people below, and it does not show the wisdom of the Lord.

But aside from these deep-seated and ideological things, from the perspective of plot structure, contradictions, conflicts, scene rhythm, etc., "The Battle of the Deer" still maintains Lu Lin's consistent level.

As for these views of film critic Yin Sisi, Lu Lin obviously does not admit it.

At this time, Song Ge came over and said with a smile: "You are now a great director, cats and dogs all want to rub your popularity! Don't think about it, go back and let them control it a little, don't let this kind of remarks run rampant and affect the reputation of the film!"

Of course, Lu Lin knew this, got up and patted the employee who gave him his place on the shoulder, and said with a smile: "Do a good job, the box office of "The Battle of the Deer" is high, and I will give you more bonuses at the end of the year!" and then walked out of the office with Song Ge.

When the employees of the Propaganda Department heard this, they instantly became motivated. Someone said: "Don't be idle, that Yin Sisi always rubs Director Lu's popularity, and when there is a new film, she will come to scold her, let's not let her stop......"

But in the evening, Yin Sisi's Weibo "fell", and the state of the post could be described as scolding.

It's not all the credit of the employees of Longlin Pictures, the main thing is that this woman always has a posture of going against the people.

If you want to scold bad movies like "Little Times", everyone may give you a thumbs up. But in the past few years, she has insisted on scolding movies such as "Wolf Warrior", "Nuwa Mending the Sky", and "Three-Body Problem", which have a good reputation and box office, and are clearly enemies of the "people".

The word-of-mouth of "The Battle of the Deer" started averagely, but the box office was extremely hot, and it was even difficult to find a ticket.

The key point is that there are too few movies to watch this year. From the National Day file to the present, Zhang Yimu, Chen Kaige, Jiang Wen, and Ning Hao are absent, and Director Feng's "Lao Paoer" has not yet been released. The star is not reliable or appealing.

Many times the audience wants to watch a movie, but they are not interested in flipping through the ticketing software of Taopiao Ticket and Maoyan Movie. Therefore, the demand for watching movies and qualified films are in short supply!

Early in the morning of the 12th, the first thing Lu Lin did when he opened his eyes was to look at the email on his mobile phone. Assistant Gao Wen sent it at five o'clock in the morning, the box office of the first day of "The Battle of the Deer".

341 million, if you add the 34 million at the zero point show, the total box office on the first day of the release is 375 million.

Although it is still behind the first day of "Super Seven" of 400 million, it exceeds the 257 million of "Three-Body Problem". It is also a happy thing to break the personal record of 300 million on the first day of "Nuwa Mending the Sky"!

Thinking about it, I felt that there was nothing to be busy in the past two days, so I put my phone aside and fell asleep again.

Lu Lin didn't take it seriously, but there was a lot of shock in the circle. Word of mouth is declining, the box office is going up, is this Nima still reasonable?

The most annoying thing is that he actually succeeded again, and he hasn't missed it until now, and he simply doesn't give people a way to live!

At this time, the major media reported wildly, regardless of his usual position. At this time, first report the news of the box office record refreshment.

At noon, Lu Lin, who had just gotten up, drove to the company and learned that "The Battle of the Deer" had set a new box office record for Longlin Pictures in Japan, South Korea and Southeast Asia.

The news from the local distributor is that it is difficult to find a ticket, and in some countries in Southeast Asia, many audiences who bought tickets have lined up outside the theater, and it seems that they really like the war scenes of ancient China!

In the North American market, due to the time difference, the box office results of the first day of the release were not passed on until the evening of the 12th.

"The Battle of the Deer" reported a total of $42.3 million in the North American market on the 11th, although it was better than the previous work "Nuwa Mending the Sky", but less than the 46.8 million of "The Three-Body Problem".

One of the key issues is that "The Battle of the Deer" is the third film in the Flood Wilderness series, and the first two were released in North America. But in terms of box office, it is not as good as "The Three-Body Problem", which is not paved by the previous work, and it seems that in the European and American markets, it is still a sci-fi blockbuster that is easier to achieve success and recognition.

On the 13th, Saturday's box office results were released, 353 million. At more than 21 o'clock in the evening of the 13th, the mainland box office of "The Battle of the Deer" has exceeded the 1 billion mark.

broke one billion in three days, such a box office record is really surprising and incomprehensible to people in the industry, the reputation of "The Battle of the Deer" is significantly lower than that of "Houyi Shooting the Sun" and "Nuwa Mending the Sky", but the box office is much higher!

This point of view is an obvious double standard, there are too many low-reputation and high-grossing films in Chinese films. Although the reputation of "The Battle of the Deer" is slightly lower, it is still above the qualified line. What's more, Lu Lin's reputation has been good in recent years, and there are more and more regular fans.

They think it's boring to be low-cost, love-loved, and it's not worth going to the cinema. Or search for pirated copies on the Internet, or wait for a period of time to watch movies on video sites such as iQiyi.

Only Hollywood special effects blockbusters and Lu Lin's Chinese special effects blockbusters are worth going to the cinema, giant screen, IMAX3D, Dolby sound, this is the authentic viewing enjoyment!

And in addition to supporting them at the box office, they will also go to Douban, Time and other websites to support Lu Lin's works.

Especially when I saw that "The Battle of the Deer" was actually brushed to 6.7 points, I couldn't bear it!

And on the evening of the 16th, Jing Xiang posted a screenshot on Weibo that someone left a message in the Douban comment area of "The Battle of the Deer", "Jing Xiang One Star does not explain", and those people exploded instantly!
