Chapter 227: Crush! Crush!
"I had a terrible day, I bumped into my boss, offended my friends, got dumped by my girlfriend, and stepped on a piece of shit on the way back from work. Pen ~ fun ~ Pavilion www.biquge.info I think it would be nice if I could do it all over again today, so that I can quietly clean up the vicious boss, make my friends thank me, and let my girlfriend come back......
This is the main line of "Stealing Love", the actor Liao Qisheng is a arrogant and annoying TV host, who is dissatisfied because he has been reporting the weather forecast, and he looks down on others in life. It was the second day of February, and he went to Mui Wo to report the news, but he didn't know why, he was trapped there, and he could only keep repeating the second day of February.
It's the same day every day, and everyone is spending a new day, except for Liao Qisheng himself. At first, he was at a loss, but soon became ecstatic, he could effortlessly pick up girls, rob, and do all the bad things he wanted to do without being punished, and the law, responsibility, and morality were all thrown aside. Whatever was done, by six o'clock in the morning, everything started again.
Yes, it's like paradise, where life can be designed and controlled, no more risk, no more fear. However, all this will be boring one day, especially when Liao Qisheng happens, no matter how hard he tries, it is impossible to get the heroine Ding Wenjuan in this day.
This is a persistent girl, she has a keen sense of touch, can perceive people's hearts, Liao Qisheng's rhetoric has no effect in front of her, even if he knows all the details of her life through constant repetition.
Liao Qisheng, who was deeply shocked, decided to commit suicide, but no matter how many suicide methods he tried, such as crashing, electrocution, jumping off the building, etc., he still woke up on time at 6 o'clock in the hotel bed every day.
When he finally confessed everything to Ding Wenjuan and obtained the other party's understanding for the first time, even if he still couldn't solve the curse, he still changed his lifestyle. Liao Qisheng began to think about the feelings of others, began to be willing to think about others, and began to try his best to help those in need during this day.
In the process, Liao Qisheng discovered a fact that he had previously ignored, that the old beggar who would beg him every day would die every day. He tried his best, but he couldn't save his life, and could only watch him die again and again due to old age.
This is life, when you complain that your days are so ordinary and boring, so disgusting and unwilling, where you don't know, there are people dying all the time.
Liao Qisheng, who realized again, took the initiative to help others, and constantly enriched himself, learned French and piano, and let himself develop in the direction that Ding Wenjuan liked. Finally, in his effortless efforts, he moved Ding Wenjuan with all the things he did in one day, and he also broke free from the circular spell.
Although it was a happy ending, it didn't affect the theme, most people are selfish, including the author, and the first thing we think of when we encounter anything is ourselves. So, if we were also in the environment of the male protagonist, we would do the same thing at the beginning, and after getting power, we would act arbitrarily.
However, people live in the world not only for themselves, but also for their own self-interest, as well as altruistic behaviors, in addition to themselves, there are also parents, friends, and lovers. When we start to feel that life is getting boring, it is better to think more about others, think about those who are still struggling with life, and then help them within our ability.
Needless to say, Zhou Yanfa's acting skills are arrogant at the beginning, which is not pleasing to anyone, and the final modesty and courtesy, patience and delicacy have become a stark contrast. Whether it is sitting in the restaurant and confessing to the heroine sincerely, telling about her loneliness in the past, or the unbearable and throbbing when saving the old beggar, it is clearly conveyed to the audience.
Among the actors born in the 50s, the title of the first acting skill is almost deserved.
And Lin Fengjiao, as the first movie of her comeback, is not lost, the gentle and virtuous side is very good for her, but the sensitivity and cuteness are also very good, which is a good start.
As for Liu Dehua, there is not much to play, but there are a few good highlights.
So far, Imagination Pictures has released three films, including "50 First Loves", which won box office records, "Fragments of Memory", which won the Cannes Film Festival Award, and now "Stealing Love", which has a sharp but straightforward theme.
Each work is very characteristic, and each work is also very delicate and full of imagination.
Just like the logo they released in this movie, it was just a vertical line at first, then it became a bird, then it became a beast, it could be a piano or a car, it could be a house or a yacht, and finally it became the name of the film company.
If you want a good, style-filled film, you have to have enough imagination before you can put it into reality.
It's an excellent movie and it's worth going to the cinema. ”
- Chen Baisheng, "Film Fortnightly".
Chen Baisheng still praised it in the magazine after all, after all, the quality of the movie is there, and he has not gone through more than ten years of ups and downs of fame and fortune, but he still has some conscience as a filmmaker.
Of course, it will be replaced more than ten years later, with the name created by the Academy Awards and "Film Fortnightly", he has become a weighty person in the entertainment industry, but I am afraid that he will start kneeling and licking without saying a word. Most literati have more discipline only when they are young, when their ideals have not been shattered by reality.
Although "Film Fortnightly" is praising this movie, it is already considered disciplined compared to other media.
"Brilliant conception, excellent graphics, and good acting. ——Sing Tao Daily
"It's wonderful, it's metaphorical, but it's not boring. - Cheng Pao
"Zhou Yunfa's acting skills are full of fun and complement the whole movie. ——Ming Pao
"The best movie of the year has been released, and it is foreseeable that "Stealing Love" will inevitably set off a new storm on Hong Kong Island. —Oriental Daily News
There was a cheer, the most numb was the "Oriental Daily", swearing that "Stealing Love" would lead a new trend, and the sycophants were so loud, I don't know if their editors will be embarrassed if they read it.
Well, it can't be said to be sycophancy, because the box office of the movie has indeed shocked a lot of people's attention.
The box office exceeded 2.5 million on the first day, 10 million in the first week, and 20 million in two weeks, which is the same as "50 First Loves".
The difference is that "50 First Loves" was extended for another week after four weeks, and it was worth more than 30 million. And "Stealing Love" passed this threshold in four weeks, and won 3 million box office in the week of extended screening, and finally went offline with a total box office of 33 million in the local port.
This ruthless crushing situation has made the bigwigs in the Hong Kong film industry hurt again, if it was just once, it would be fine, but why come twice, do you want people to live?
Even, the heroes and heroines are Zhang Guorong and Zhong Yihong, and Wang Jing who is in charge of the guide, they can all understand. The former has established the status of a first-line male star with "50 First Loves", and the two records released are also selling well and are booming. Although the latter is not as good as the former, women have a natural disadvantage, but they still have many fans with "50 First Loves" and "Memory Fragments", and now they have won the Golden Horse Award and the Academy Award for Best Actress.
If they are together, plus Wang Jing, they have the reputation accumulated by "50 First Loves", and it is a smooth thing to hit the box office again, but the heroes and heroines of "Stealing Love" are Zhou Yunfa and Lin Fengjiao, and the director is Du Qifeng, a semi-newcomer director with a history of hitting the street, which is not scientific!
Zhou Yunfa is indeed very popular, but it can't be compared with Zhang Guorong now, and his popularity was probably when "Shanghai Tang" was broadcast, but the popularity of TV series may not be transformed into popularity in movies, otherwise "Hu Yue's Story" would not hit the street.
Although "Fragments of Memory" won a box office of 15 million, which earned him a lot of popularity on the movie side, and his reputation is also very good, he is not the best one in the movie, the most outstanding is Wu Yaohan, nominated for the Golden Horse Award for Best Actor, and won the Academy Award for Best Actor.
In other words, taking the status of the three Xu brothers as an analogy, he is Xu Guanying at best, and taking the three Hong Jinbao brothers as an analogy, he is Yuan Biao at best.
Therefore, with Zhou Runfa's current popularity, he can't afford to carry the box office of 30 million.
What's more, the heroine Lin Fengjiao has not had a work for more than two years, and she has been taking the route of literary films, and her reputation in Hong Kong is far inferior to Lin Qingxia.
Not to mention director Du Qifeng, everyone knows that his debut film "Blue Water and Cold Mountain Killing Gold" hit the streets.
is such a combination, not only made "Stealing Love" once again crossed the 30 million box office mark that no one in Hong Kong can pass, but also 3 million more box office than "50 First Love"!
Yes, Mr. Li's propaganda campaign was very ferocious, the trailers on the TV station were almost scrolling, the posters were spread all over the streets, and the newspapers were also full of advertisements, but ...... This is still unscientific!
Well, it's not that the big guy doesn't know the reason, he just thinks it's too exaggerated.
When all options are removed, no matter how unreasonable the remaining outcome may be, that's the truth — there's no doubt that Mr. Lee bought the box office.
It's a joke, this little broken island is so big, did it buy the box office, and their gang doesn't know yet?
Therefore, it will only be one reason, this movie is Mr. Li carefully followed.
So far, he has paid close attention to three films, and then, "50 First Loves" and "Stealing Love" both grossed more than 30 million, and "Memory Fragments" won the Grand Jury Prize at the Cannes Film Festival, although it was only 15 million.
In other words, his idea of the movie is the number one reason for the box office hit.
Well, the bigwigs in the circle are very happy, after getting the release date of "Stealing Love", they all adjusted the schedule and removed the promising works one after another, and in the month of the movie's release, all the arrangements were cannon fodder works.
This is the right thing to do, otherwise you don't know what you will be crushed into under this roller.
