Chapter 215: Cute Contrasting Moe
In the history of the mainland in the past two years, films involving gangsters are usually included in the eighteen banned works, and gangster films that are not too violent at first will not be included in the eighteen banned works, the problem is in "Crazy Boy" This series of works, this series of works was originally only listed as works that can be watched by people over 13 years old, because the violent scenes in the work are not particularly excessive, but this work plays a very poor role, because the worldview of the work is really bad, after the movie was screened, it directly caused the hot-blooded teenagers in the entire Chinese-speaking area to become obsessed with the "occupation" of "Crazy Boy" , the whole country is in a mess, and there are teenagers everywhere who are learning to be old boys, and schools and teachers across the country hate it.
Since then, almost all gangster films have been set as eighteen banned works.
"Sailor Suit and Machine Gun" was estimated by many people to be an eighteen forbidden work at first, after all, there is a gangster plot in it, so it is quite surprising that it can be watched by all ages after the review results of the work.
Of course, in order to be watchable for all ages, Fan Cheng and Mi Zhigao were also well-intentioned during filming, they cut down the bloody and inappropriate scenes, and at the same time highlighted the cruelty and pain of the gangsters.
After the first weekend passed, various reviews about "Sailor Suit and Machine Gun" also came out.
"It's a very interesting work, and we were initially attracted by the gimmick of the sailor suit, and then we would notice the so-called machine gun part of the work, and then we would realize that it might be a gangster movie.
But when we are halfway through it in the cinema, we will find that it is essentially a youth movie.
Fan Xiaoqian used her youth and beauty to create a special gangster youth film for us. "It's normal to have a film review published in the print press.
Movie reviews by ordinary people on the Internet are simpler, more direct, but more interesting.
"Watching a movie? No, no, no, all my attention was attracted by Fan Xiaoqian, what is the area below the skirt and above the stockings called by the third uncle?
"We were all deceived by the introduction of this movie, this is not a gangster film at all but a pure youth film, Fan Xiaoqian is simply beautiful, the gangsters in the film are not terrible but a little funny, and the most amazing picture is, of course, Fan Xiaoqian's strafing, the girl's pleasure makes my girl's heart leak half a beat, I believe that this work and Fan Xiaoqian's line will become a classic of Chinese movies. β
"The third uncle won again, and now I'm looking forward to the third uncle's third work more and more, the youth trilogy, the first two are more interesting than the other, and I believe the third part will definitely amaze us!"
In addition to discussing the movie, the discussion of the school uniform is of course the highest, after seeing Fan Xiaoqian's school uniform, everyone is looking forward to it, and when the movie comes out, the discussion caused by the school uniform will be even greater.
"What do we see? What we see is heaven! In "Sailor Suit and Machine Gun", all the student characters wear sailor suits! Sportswear only appears in physical education class! This is the school we want! School should be a place where skirts fly and youth bloom, can we bloom in sportswear! So, I decided to mobilize my classmates to go to the cinema tomorrow to watch "Sailor Suit and Machine Gun", and after most of them have watched this play, I will apply to the school to change into sailor clothes!"
After the sailor suit comes out, of course, there will be a lot of reprimands, conservatives exist no matter where they are, some people reprimand them for not being orthodox, some people think that the sailor suit is simply unorthodox and shows the thighs and arms, fortunately, Fan Cheng crossed this China is not conservative, and the voice of refuting this evaluation is even louder, the world does not even have the saying of early love, the so-called unorthodox and other conservative statements are untenable, since we can even fall in love at school, how can we be limited by what clothes to wear?
With the momentum of the previous work, "Sailor Suit and Machine Gun" ushered in good results from the beginning of the screening, and finally reported a box office of 17 million in the first week, which is equivalent to recovering the filming investment of the film in almost a week.
And the first week is just the beginning of the conversation for today's film screenings.
In the following second week, the number of canvases for the film was increased to 60%, and the market box office responded to this expectation, although the canvas only increased by 10% , but the box office finally reported 26 million, 9 million box office growth, which means that this week's attendance not only did not decline but also increased, and the growth of attendance is the most critical data after the release of the movie, many movies can still get optimistic and get more canvases even if they can only ensure that the initial attendance rate remains unchanged a week after the release, and the vast majority of movies that are not so popular may not be able to buy tickets at every turn after a week of play.
The box office of 43 million in two weeks is definitely a big hit for a movie with an investment of less than 10 million, in the middle of the year when the film market is not particularly prosperous, and it also missed holidays such as small long holidays, but this movie still achieved such results, especially on weekends, and the whole audience was occupied by students at every turn, such results are simply surprising, and the speculation about the final box office of this movie has even reached more than 80 million, if it can really achieve such results, Dongbao may even make a net profit of more than 30 million in the endοΌ
The half-year shooting period of a movie, plus the preparation period may not even exceed a year, such efficiency is the envy of even many large companies, even if it is a large company that invests in works like "Hero", I am afraid that this kind of efficiency will not be obtained.
As for Fan Xiaoqian, her popularity is also expected, this girl is so cute, her singing, and her beauty in the movie are impressive.
And as everyone's understanding of her deepens, her casualness and freedom in front of the TV camera are also very likable.
Other little idols and young artists can't always speak casually in front of the camera, and they can't completely show their personality, but Fan Xiaoqian is not like this, the personality she shows is simply too cute.
For example, the act of giving miso soup to fans on Hong Kong Island, she is innocent and gives people a sense of never being pretentious, and the same is true when she participates in various program activities.
For example, at the premiere of "Sailor Suit and Machine Gun", in the face of Fan Cheng's spoof and ridicule, this girl actually came up and kicked Fan Cheng, such a rude behavior may cause an exclamation when others do it, but Fan Xiaoqian will only make people feel innocent and cute.
The same is true for returning to the mainland to participate in the show, she will be deformed by her spicy face, and she will be too happy to dance and almost go out and have to be coded in the later stage, and she will cry without image because she lost in the show competition, the most exaggerated thing is that this show supervised by Fan Cheng even retained the picture of the girl crying too exaggerated and blowing her nose.
Fan Cheng's creation of Fan Xiaoqian's role is purely the feeling of highlighting the "contrast and cuteness" in later generations, for this world that has just given birth to the concept of idols, this image is simply too new and impactful.
A beautiful girl who looks super cute is not afraid of being funny.,Free.,The image of being completely freewheeling is simply too impactful.γ
Fan Cheng has also been prepared for Fan Xiaoqian's image for a long time, and he is not very casual to let Fan Xiaoqian do such an image.
It is even said that others can't do it even if they want to!
Young artists and idols in this world, to give two examples, such as Wen Zhen and Qin Ruoxue, Qin Ruoxue is strictly speaking similar to Fan Xiaoqian's experience and training, but her mind is a little heavy, and it is almost impossible to do whatever she wants in front of the TV, such as Fan Xiaoqian to participate in the movie premiere, her reaction to Fan Cheng's funny must have been well thought out, as for kicking the third uncle?
And Wen Zhen is too professional, give her the script, she can be perfect, when it comes to artists, her conditioned reflex is the kind of perfect image, let her destroy her own image, in fact, she is challenging her understanding of the image of an artist.
Fan Xiaoqian can be so popular, Fan Cheng has done a lot behind the scenes, such as blowing his nose when participating in variety shows, in any variety show other than Fan Cheng in this era, it is a picture that will definitely be deleted, but Fan Cheng just stayed.
It's not unskilled to stay.
If Fan Xiaoqian blew her nose for no reason, without foreshadowing the cause and effect, people would only think she was disgusting.
But if she was just cried before or lost the game and cried all the makeup was spent, and then hid in the corner to blow her nose after the director shouted to stop filming, then it would be no problem at all, and there are many differences in the types of snot blowing, no matter how sympathetic it was before, only the kind of cute, quiet, only the action of seeing the action without any strange liquid will be left......
Only if you have the confidence to do a good job in the design and editing of these programs can you have the courage to create such an artist, otherwise the editing will be wrong, and if the character collapses, people will think that she is a dirty and rude bad girl.
The final box office of "Sailor Suit and Machine Gun" is unlikely to exceed 100 million, about 70 million to 80 million is already the limit of this movie, this number is of course very high, especially considering that the film is not very high investment and preparation period, this rate of return is even more amazing.
Especially considering that this is the second work of the trilogy, the audience and the industry are increasingly looking forward to the third work, which has now entered filming but only has the name of "The Tragedy".
is not only expected to be "The Tragedy", but also the work that is said to be directed by Fan Cheng himself.
Nowadays, no one dares to say that Fan Cheng has no talent in film production and shooting, although the two works are not the directors he did, but as a screenwriter and investor, his influence in the film is absolutely huge, and he participated in the production of three works in a row, the purpose of which is simply Sima Zhao's heart.
Fan Cheng was relieved by the results of the release of "Sailor Suit and Machine Gun", and handed over the rest of the work to Wen Jia and Fan Zheng, and then he could continue to participate in the filming of the third film.
Oh yes, in addition to the filming of the third play, there is another thing that needs his participation, and that is the performance plan of Fan Xiaoqian and Wen Zhen.
The two high school girls have no plans to participate in commercial performances, but it is inappropriate not to do live performances as a singer, although there are many top singers who can also do this, but Wenzhen and Fan Xiaoqian are different, they are young and beautiful, although they have the strength to take the idol route, this route does not do live performances, to put it bluntly...... It's too tyrannical.
Because it's so profitable.
The difference between being an idol and being a singer, top idols are very, very, very, and special to make money.
Being a singer, selling albums, holding concerts, and performing commercially, it's gone.
Fans will chase your songs, they will be addicted to your voice, and this is built on your strength.
And idols, singers, albums, concerts, and commercial performances are not lacking, but in addition to these, idols also do other things.
For example, the development of peripheral goods.
A cup, sold for two dollars in the store, printed with the idol's avatar, charges you 20.
Towels, ten dollars can be a wholesale stack, printed with idols, a piece will charge you 40.
Book covers, stationery boxes, pads, and ballpoint pens used by school students can be developed into merchandise.
What's even more terrifying is that the cups are not out of one but a set, a set of ten cups, charge you one hundred and six, 40 cheaper, it's cost-effective, right?
However, the MD ten-person family is not even one thousandth of the families in the country, right?
There is also a towel, the towel is called a beautiful name for wiping sweat at the concert live, but this towel has a different version for each live! The idol can do dozens of actions in front of the camera in 20 seconds, and each action can be put on the towel to produce a version, and if you buy it all, you are the big guy in the rice circle, although it costs thousands of yuan!
As for the different versions of photos that each month, every event, every CD, and every live show has, there is a "passport" for each live show...... The so-called idol business law is a thing that makes the star industry and earning power to the extreme, which is actually something that only idols can do, because only idols have such affinity, and only the person who pursues idols loves this person and not her voice and her works, can have such an effect.
As for singers and actors, you can also do these things, but to be honest, singers and actors may occasionally achieve good results in this aspect, and in the long run, they are far less profitable than idols.
As for the argument that you are making money in this way, you will have a cancer or something like that.
If you like someone, you're a cancer, but if you like their work, isn't it?
Fan Cheng has never felt that there is any cancer, and some people will naturally do what they like.
