Chapter 22: Crazy
Actually, the girl who asked the question just now may not have seen "The Great Cause of the Army", she should just be led to the rhythm.
In the past few days, many big Vs on Weibo and Zhihu have praised "The Great Cause of the Founding of the Army", saying that it is "hot-blooded and youthful", and there are many remarks "Why are you scolding the Great Cause of the Founding of the Army", have you read it? It is very good!'
It's useless, and a bunch of viewers who have watched it began to spoof:
"The Bloody Nanchang of the Troubled Boy"
"I, Ye Xiyi, came out and mixed up all three things: ruthless, righteous, and many brothers!"
"My name is Yamaji, the mountain of Mt. Ioka!"
"Brother Xiangyu will always be my eldest brother, Jiang Zhongzheng, do you think you can cover the sky with one hand?"
"Jiang Zhong is about to kill me, and now Wang Jingwei is also coming to join in the fun, then fight!"
"After 2 o'clock in the morning, I have the final say in Nanchang City!"
You can't blame netizens, the war scene of "The Great Cause of the Army" is okay, but it lacks a sense of history!
……
On the first day, "Wolf Warrior 2" won 120 million box office;
the next day, 260 million;
On the third day, the single-day box office of "Wolf Warrior 2" was 320 million;
On the fourth day, "Wolf Warrior 2" 370 million in a single day...
At the end of the first weekend, 1.07 billion, seeing this data, Shen Ming was stunned...
Wu Jing on the side was also frightened: "... Are you sure you're right?"
"That's right, it's really 10,700 million!"
"Damn, according to the 3.5 times algorithm, wouldn't "Wolf Warrior 2" surpass "Mermaid"?"
"Eye-catching prediction, the final box office is 3.4 billion, surpassing "Mermaid"!"
Wu Jing and Shen Ming looked at each other...
This thing completely exceeded the previous prediction...
"Not only that, but we also broke the single-day box office record of domestic movies!"
The staff announced the news with joy.
“… How can it be so high?"
"I don't know, I'll ask Yang Xin!"
Shen Ming took out his mobile phone and dialed Yang Xin's phone tremblingly, who was also very excited: "Not only "Wolf Warrior 2", "The Fault in the Stars" has been released worldwide for two weeks, and the box office has exceeded 200 million US dollars!"
"Do you know what that means?"
"You not only have masterpieces, but also two at once!"
“… No, Sister Xin, how could the box office of "Wolf Warrior 2" be so high?"
"How do I know, you're fine, just steal the fun!"
Spread your hands...
Anyway, Shen Ming didn't understand.
After hanging up the phone, I thought about it seriously: "Maybe it touched the audience's feelings!"
"Wolf Warrior 2" really touched the audience!
While Chinese audiences have generally grown up under the education of collectivist values, today's active art creators are often deeply influenced by Western literary theories and individualistic values, resulting in a separation between the value and sentiment of the work and the market.
"Wolf Warrior 2" undoubtedly satisfies the heroic dream of many viewers - those of us who grew up watching collectivist works, and then rebelled against collectivism. Now, I have revisited this kind of blood, because it is both unfamiliar and familiar, and it has a different taste.
This kind of movie-watching mood is not only for the audience to change their tastes, if we dig deeper, it should be that patriotic sentiment is definitely a powerful social torrent.
"This prosperous world is as you wish!"
"There are no idols in front of the country!"
The audience is no longer the group of people who like poetry, sing praises of freedom and cooking!
……
turned on the phone and searched casually, and the news of "Wolf Warrior 2" immediately popped up.
""Wolf Warrior 2" topped the global box office list in the first week, "The Fault in the Stars" ranked second, Shen Ming, the two dramas proved their appeal to the world!"
"The box office of "Wolf Warrior 2" exceeded 1 billion in the first weekend!
"The box office in the first weekend was close to 1.1 billion, and "Wolf Warrior 2" is going crazy!"
I don't know if I'm crazy or not, but Douban has already made a lot of noise.
There are two clear factions, one faction thinks that "Wolf Warrior 2" is garbage, Wu Jing is garbage, and all those who advocate "Wolf Warrior 2" are stupid, low-end, and low-end patriotic thieves;
Frankly speaking, "Wolf Warrior 2", as Wu Jing's third directorial work, has gone all the way from "Wolf Teeth", and the level of "Wolf Warrior 2" is obvious to all.
As a popcorn movie with a high degree of completion and careful production but relatively rough technical details, "Wolf Warrior 2" needs to be pointed out with many flaws and shortcomings, and the artistic level in the eyes of professional filmmakers is far less than its success in the commercial field.
It's not impossible to ridicule a few words purely from the perspective of movie logic, but look at the first few hot comments on Douban, all of them are saying that Wu Jing's 'Yelang is arrogant' and says that 'the plot is illogical, and all the horses are singing praises of patriotism'...
Obviously, from a technical point of view, it can be evaluated with a more objective attitude, and there is nothing wrong with scoring loosely or strictly, but these high praise and bad reviews do not care at all, and the main spearhead is either explicitly or implicitly pointed to the patriotic theme contained in the movie, and the bias can be imagined.
These guys really don't understand the main theme movie!
At the end of the film, the scene of Leng Feng holding the red flag through the war zone is the climax of the whole film's emotions, which is precisely the core part of the commercial success of "Wolf Warrior 2"!
Some people only see that African countries have warmly embraced Chinese investment in recent years, and dismiss it as "measuring material resources and forming happiness", but they cannot see that the West has invested trillions in Africa for decades in exchange for hatred and war, let alone that the sacrifice of Chinese in Asian, African and Latin American countries in the past half century has changed the peaceful development of the African continent and China's future global strategy.
I have nothing to say to these people, after all, the military parade is just a chicken blood in their eyes!
Maybe in their opinion, you have a P business with me in the war?
Anyway, I'm also a slave, who should I be a slave or not?
……
August 2, Changsha.
Shen Ming nestled in the back seat, and was about to squint for a while, when the phone rang.
It's milk Xiao.
Are you here to congratulate me?
was connected, and the other party felt like he was looking for something.
"You've watched 'Running Man', so what?"
“… How is it possible, I talk to her in three words a day!"
"It's definitely the pot of editing!"
Uh, "Running Man" aired...
In fact, Shen Ming knew that once "Running Man" was broadcast, there would definitely be an affair about him and Di Li's meat, because the program team discussed with him and would edit him into an idiot.
Of course, that's not what I said, but there will be some ambiguity when I say it - Pink Line...
Brother Ming thought about it and agreed, he didn't suffer a loss, and the meat was also a beautiful girl!
The most important thing is that he was thinking about promoting "Wolf Warrior 2" at the time, and the director team arranged it this way, hyping it hot, and he could better publicize it...
I didn't expect "Wolf Warrior 2" to be crazy, and I didn't need any variety show publicity at all...
Hype male and female artists Pink Line, it's too simple, you look at other things with your eyes, the editor directly cuts to the female guest for you, and by the way, add a subtitle 'full of care'...
It immediately felt different!
Lu Han is like this, obviously kissing his teammates, editing in the later stage, cutting out the shy expression of the meat...
Immediately I feel like a land CP!
Nan Xiao ignored him at all: "Now many people say that you are more compatible with meat!"
", she's four years older than me, and I don't like being older than me!"
"People are exotic..."
"I like Chinese!"
"Hmph..."
Finally appeased Milk Xiao, Shen Ming hung up the phone, Wu Jing smiled: "Quarreled with your girlfriend again?"
