Chapter 135: Fans and Opponents (Subscriptions, Tickets)
Wang Jiating is a white-collar worker in Shanghai, and unlike those friends around her who like commercial blockbusters, she has been very fond of watching art movies since she was very young.
And she is very sensitive to the feeling of movie acting, and can easily distinguish the real acting level of an actor.
This makes her always able to distinguish the connotation of many performances that ordinary audiences can't see when watching movies.
This is also what makes her extremely proud and proud.
Even her friends often come to her to ask her questions about movies.
This made her understand the film more deeply, far exceeding the appreciation level of the average audience.
Before meeting Peng Yichen, Wang Jiating's favorite was actors, but they were actually recognized acting stars in Hollywood such as Tom Hanks and Al Fearsino.
It wasn't until last year that she accidentally saw a movie "Twelve Warriors", and since then she has been overwhelmed by Peng Yichen's acting skills when he played the middle-aged jurors.
It's not because of how high Peng Yichen's acting skills are, at least at that time, Peng Yichen's acting skills were not as good as Zhao Jianguo, who won the actor by relying on this movie.
But Wang Jiating looked at his way of acting, and always felt that there was a big difference between it and the way actors in Huaxia performed today.
The kind of natural expression of the authenticity of the performance, as well as the use of micro-expressions and micro-movements, that Peng Yichen showed in the movie are definitely not comparable to most actors from the current drama stage in China.
Even in Wang Jiating's opinion, Peng Yichen's performance method is better than most Hollywood actors.
may only be in a few top actors in Hollywood, Wang Jiating has seen Peng Yichen's real and natural way of acting.
Therefore, since she watched "Twelve Warriors", she has automatically become one of Peng Yichen's loyal fans.
But to her disappointment, Peng Yichen has very little information, whether online or in traditional media.
It's as if this actor will always only appear in his own work.
Later, after the release of the movie "Groundhog Day", Peng Yichen's performance did not disappoint Wang Jiating.
This time, his in-depth understanding of the character's psychology and the improvement of his acting skills are almost leaps and bounds.
also made Wang Jiating more sure of what she thought in her heart.
Peng Yichen's performance method is indeed very different from the current mainstream performance method in China and even the whole world.
Wang Jiating checked all the professional articles about performance, and did not find a single word about Peng Yichen's performance method.
At this point, she was finally able to determine that Peng Yichen must have created a set of performance methods or performance systems.
Every time she thinks that she has discovered the deepest secret hidden by her idol in terms of performance, Wang Jiating is extremely excited.
She has been looking forward to the release of Peng Yichen's next film, so that she can analyze more information about Peng Yichen's self-created performance method.
Among today's Chinese young people and even middle-aged people, there are still thousands of fans like Wang Jiating who are looking forward to Peng Yichen's new movie.
Maybe they don't have such a clear and professional understanding of the actors' acting skills as Wang Jiating.
But for Peng Yichen's performance, they all instinctively felt comfortable and fond.
This is Peng Yichen's unique performance charm after countless hours of tempering and understanding in the world of the plot, coupled with the addition of the experiential and methodological performance systems of the previous life.
He has gradually walked on the right path with his own unique performance style and performing soul.
This is also Peng Yichen's biggest gain in the past two years.
After more than two years of uninterrupted hard work and struggle, Peng Yichen can now confidently announce to everyone that he has used his works to gain a firm foothold in the Chinese film industry.
His current influence, although it can't be compared with some old actors and actresses. But in the minds of many Chinese audiences, the movies he starred in have slowly become a guarantee of movie quality.
But in his heart, the improvement and harvest of his acting skills are much more important than money, fame, and popularity.
After all, becoming the best actor is the core of his life satisfaction and realization of his life ideals.
Of course, while his performance is improving, so many fans can recognize his performances and works, and he can also reap the development of his career and love.
For a man who used to wander around, his current life has made him feel very content and happy.
…….
is very concerned about Peng Yichen's upcoming movie, and it is not only loyal fans like Wang Jiating who are very concerned.
There are also Tong Xinze, Huang Zhitao, who are hostile to Peng Yichen, and Lido Film Company, which is eyeing him.
Since 2005, Lido Films' "Palace Rebellion" failed miserably at the box office to Peng Yichen's "Twelve Warriors".
Lido Films was always looking for an opportunity to reach out to Peng.
But what disappointed them was that in addition to participating in the filming and performance of film and television dramas, Peng Yichen never appeared on TV, did not participate in business, and did not attend public activities.
It is almost an impossible task to bypass Huimin's company and contact Peng Yichen.
Later, after Peng Yichen's own studio, the price for Lido Film Company to dig up his past was even greater.
In the end, Lido Films simply gave up contacting Peng Yichen completely.
This time, the reason why Lido Film Company is concerned about Peng Yichen's situation again.
It is because their company invested 150 million yuan this year to shoot the commercial film "Heaven and Earth Ambition", which will be released on January 10.
In other words, in this year's Chinese New Year, Peng Yichen's movie once again caught up with Lido's movie.
Since 1997, director Chen Guozhong of Huimin Film and Television Company launched his first commercial film "Big Time 1998" in the Chinese New Year, and finally reaped more than 80 million box office revenue.
For the first time, the concept of "Chinese New Year stalls" has been widely recognized by mainland audiences.
It also made mainland filmmakers begin to pay attention to the unique charm of Chinese New Year films, and slowly began to learn the commercial operation methods of Hong Kong films, taking advantage of the festive atmosphere of the Spring Festival to attract audiences to cinemas.
Since that year, the people of China have slowly begun to accept that every year, in addition to waiting for the Spring Festival Gala, you can also go into the cinema and enjoy the movie feast carefully prepared by the filmmakers for a year with your family.
Since then, the mainland has entered the Chinese New Year era, and it can be said that Huimin Film and Chen Guozhong used to be a banner of Chinese New Year films in the mainland.
In the next few years, Hui Min Film and Chen Guozhong successively released a series of Chinese New Year movies such as "Me with You" and "Meet 2000" during the Spring Festival, until "Qin Shi Huang" was released in 2003, and the box office broke the dominance of Hollywood blockbusters in the Chinese film market in one fell swoop.
That year, the total number of tickets for the Chinese New Year stalls also exceeded the summer stalls for the first time, becoming the most important schedule in the Chinese film market.
After the release of "Qin Shi Huang", Chen Guozhong was also recognized as the first commercial film director in China.
He and his Chinese New Year movies have become an indispensable part of the Chinese New Year celebrations for mainland audiences.
At the end of 2005, Chen Guozhong did not launch a Chinese New Year movie that year because of the filming of "The Emperor of Han Wu".
However, Lido Film and Television has ambitiously launched a commercial blockbuster "Palace Chaos" with a huge investment, wanting to make a name for itself in the Chinese New Year.
Time is also fate.
At this moment, Peng Yichen's art film "Twelve Warriors", which seemed to have no box office potential at all, happened to be quietly released at this time.
The ambitious Lido Film and Television and the big director Zhang Gengai never dreamed that the final box office revenue of their commercial blockbusters in the Lunar New Year file would not even be recovered from the shooting costs.
What drove them even more crazy was that "Twelve Warriors", an art film with a low investment and no box office potential, finally pressed "Palace Chaos" to the ground and rubbed it.
After the last Chinese New Year, Lido Film and Television's attention to Peng Yichen has skyrocketed to almost the same status as a big director like Chen Guozhong.
This time, Lido Films is fighting again for the Chinese New Year, and the reason why the release date of "Heaven and Earth Ambition" was chosen on January 10.
It is because they have long learned through various channels that Chen Guozhong of Huimin Film and Television has been too tired from filming in the past two years, and hopes to take a break for a while, and does not plan to participate in this year's Chinese New Year competition.
And Peng Yichen's new movie "One Man, Martial Arts" in Xiangjiang is difficult to post-production, and it can't be released in the Chinese New Year file.
Therefore, they launched "Heaven and Earth Ambition" with peace of mind, intending to make a lot of money in this Chinese New Year stall with no opponents and make up for the loss of the last "Palace Chaos".
Don't think that they have such thoughts, it means that they are really afraid of Huimin Film and Television and Peng Yichen.
After all, film companies are profit-making as their ultimate goal, and they will take into account any factors that may cause losses and take appropriate countermeasures.
It's a pity that people are not as good as heaven, just when "Heaven and Earth Ambition" was finalized and began to be promoted, the news of the official launch of "Full of Gold and Jade" suddenly came out in Xiangjiang.
Lido Film and Television, which didn't care much about this Xiangjiang New Year movie, immediately became nervous again from the moment they knew that Peng Yichen was the screenwriter and starring role of the movie.
Xiangjiang films have been declining, and the films led by Xiangjiang people in the past two years have all returned home in the Chinese film market. So Lido Film and Television has a reason to ignore their Chinese New Year films.
But with Peng Yichen's screenwriting and performance, this movie has become different.
In just two years, Peng Yichen has served as the screenwriter of three films.
Two of the films that have been released have both exceeded 200 million at the box office. Among them, "Twelve Warriors" is still in the professional film critics circle and is recognized as a classic movie. To a certain extent, it has even affected such a national event as the construction of the Chinese judicial system.
How can such a screenwriter, such an actor, and a group of highly professional Xiangjiang filmmakers make a movie with a 'small role'.
The 2006 Chinese New Year file, which originally seemed a little deserted (2006 according to the Lunar Year), was stirred up by the two menacing and upcoming Chinese New Year movies "Heaven and Earth Ambition" and "Full of Gold".
For a while, the attention of all the media and fans in China was attracted to the two days of January 10th and 15th.
A battle is about to be staged, how can you not let these media and fans be excited and look forward to it!!
