Chapter 019: A Phenomenal Movie
"As of February 10, it has been half a month since the release of "Meng Jiangnu", and the cumulative box office has exceeded 1.9 billion, approaching the 2 billion mark, strongly announcing the birth of another phenomenal film in the history of Chinese films!"
"As of February 10th, the box office of "The Ferryman" is 570 million, the decline is obvious, and the major cinema chains have made further adjustments to the film scheduling rate; "Long Wind and Waves" struggled to support, and this week's box office growth surpassed "The Ferryman", breaking through the 700 million mark......"
"As of February 10, the film scheduling rate of "Meng Jiangnu" has dropped by 2%, but it still accounts for 60% of the ultra-high film scheduling rate, and the weekly box office growth has only slowed down slightly......
Li Shuangqian, a well-known and powerful actor in the entertainment industry and has been in the industry for 30 years, officially tore apart with the popular idol Xiao Yitao on Weibo, and the two sides protected each other's recording shows to play big names, Xiao Yitao's massive fans instantly captured Li Shuangqi's Weibo, just when everyone thought that Li Shuangqian was silent, the plot reversed again. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ļ½ļ½ļ½Uļ½Eć infoLi Shuangqian posted a mobile phone video on the Internet, which recorded the whole process of the conflict between the two sides on the day of the show. In the video, Xiao Yitao was arrogant and demanded that Li Shuangqian get out of the dressing room, Li Shuangqian was immediately furious and ready to stop recording, but under the hard persuasion of the staff, he finally left the dressing room with humiliation, and then Xiao Yitao closed the door proudly, and then the video ended......"
Just when many netizens were about to wait for the plot to reverse again, the video suddenly disappeared from the Internet, which suddenly detonated the curiosity of the melon-eating masses. Under the operation of someone with a heart, the source file of the video was found, and the netizen quickly spread it in the circle of friends by using video screenshots and subtitles...... After that, Xiao Yitao's fans went crazy, and the entire Internet water army launched, the whole network smeared Li Shuangqi, and began to flesh Li Shuangqi's realistic information. In a fit of rage, Li Shuangqian officially sued Xiao Yitao......"
It is reported that Li Shuangqian is a national first-class actor, singing artist, and active major general singing artist of the Air Force Singing Art Troupe...... The Imperial Capital Chaoyang District Court has filed the case and entered the summons stage, but in the court session, neither party was present, and they were both represented by lawyers! ā
"Recently, Li Shuangbing, who ended the roadshow of "Meng Jiangnu", was asked about Tang Nian when attending a clothing brand event, Li Shuangbing smiled and did not answer, and pushed the question to Director Zhang......"
"The above is the popular entertainment content that Tencent Entertainment has known to broadcast for you, I am **, we will see you next time!"
ā¦ā¦
Xiao Ming knocked on the table, and under the background sound of the entertainment broadcast, he filtered a draft on the computer again, and after confirming that there were no typos and logical errors, he clicked on the 'Headline Article' to generate the editor.
The next moment, the article appeared on Weibo headlines.
"Why can "Meng Jiangnu" become a phenomenal movie? ćā
Thanks to Xiao Ming's professional film critic who first proposed the five plot lines of "Meng Jiangnu" on the Internet, his Weibo followers skyrocketed to one million, and this manuscript quickly became a popular article on Weibo as soon as it was released.
"Meng Jiangnu" invested 120 million, the shooting cost was 90 million, including the actor's salary, and the post-production cost was 30 million, starring: Li Shuangbing, Ren Baishui, Li Chen, Yuan Hong, Qin Pei, Feng Shaofeng, Wang Gang, Gao Xiulan, Tang Nian, other big names include Gong Li, Li Li......qun, "The Ferryman" invested 100 million, the shooting cost was 90 million, including the actor's salary, and the post-production cost was 10 million, starring: Liang Chaowei...... "Long Wind and Waves" invested 80 million, and the shooting cost was 80 million, including the actor's salary, starring: Zheng Chao, Peng Yuyan...... I said so much and didn't mention anything about the box office, just talk about it from the shooting costs, starring lineup, etc., why only "Meng Jiangnu" has become a phenomenal movie, and several other movies have become a foil? ā
"We know that "The Ferryman" is the first work directed by Zhang Jiashu, Zhang Jiashu is a writer, and he is a best-selling author, and it can be said that in the past five years, he has firmly sat on the throne of the first best-selling author in the urban category. From this point of view, the storyline of "The Ferryman" will definitely not be weak, and it can even be said that from the director's point of view alone, among the movies in the Chinese New Year file, "The Ferryman" directed by Zhang Jiashu should be the work with the strongest story, there is no doubt about it! ā
So, is that really the case? After the release of "The Ferryman", we found that this work is divided into several links, similar to the telling mode of a central idea and several stories strung together, which is completely in line with director Zhang Jiashu's style as a writer. Every story is complete, and the opening clues to the next story can be found in each story, which is tantamount to a huge hidden easter egg, which is undoubtedly the happiest thing for fans of director Zhang Jiashu. Because on the movie screen, they spent two hours watching a very appetizing film form. But it's a pity that this is a huge problem for ordinary audiences, and the style of literature and art makes the audience who originally entered the cinema and enjoyed their families fall into confusion......"
"The audience can't laugh or cry, from the beginning to the end, the slightly dull lens language telling style is very unpleasant, what I know, many viewers are hazing after watching the movie, and even many viewers leave the scene halfway...... From the perspective of film critics, I can only say that it is a pity that "The Ferryman" chose the wrong release time, if it is a Valentine's file or Qixi file in February, it is a very good choice, this is the clash of time. It's a pity that "The Ferryman" is the first work directed by Zhang Jiashu, and he is very eager to tell something in the movie, so he seems a little urgent when telling the story, and the urgency makes the taste of the story lighter, and the taste of the story is lighter, which makes the feeling conveyed by the movie greatly reduced! ā
There is a joke that the actor is a marionette in the hands of the director, and there is some truth to this sentence. Because of the actor's performance in the camera, whether it can be or not is completely up to the director. Zhang Jiashu is not Wang Jiawei, and Liang Chaowei who left Wang Jiawei has been extraordinarily constrained by the director, so that people have also been lost. A movie, which has lost the right time, place and people, can get a box office of nearly 400 million, which is already the greatest tolerance of the Chinese New Year audience for movies! ā
After analyzing "The Ferryman", let's take a look at "Long Wind and Waves" directed by Han Han, the same writer's background, but Han Han has already directed "All the Way to ............ Phew, it should be "Regret Forever", the film is a simple story, a typical road movie, but in the unique narration shot full of Han Han's style, the story is full of a touch of sadness, similar to the confusion and wandering on the road of life...... It's far away, I mainly want to say that Director Han Han should be regarded as the second person to enter the palace...... So, I guess it's right, the watch hit me...... Because director Han Han has already directed a successful film work, he has a better grasp of the psychology of movie audiences, which is also the reason why "Long Wind and Waves" can buck the trend and survive under the strong impact of "Meng Jiangnu"! ā
"As for "Super Express", this is a sincere fast-food commercial comedy, the publisher's idea is simple and crude, just to make money, taking advantage of the Chinese New Year, the main gimmick of Sino-Korean co-production, typical Zeng Xiaoxian style...... It's a pity that the New Year file has "Meng Jiangnu", a better delicacy, so don't eat fast food, which is also the root of "Super Comedy" becoming cannon fodder. And several other shoddy movies, they are even more pathetic, and even the release is a one-day trip, which is really embarrassing......"
After talking about several blockbusters in the Chinese New Year file, let's analyze why "Meng Jiangnu" has become a phenomenal movie, which has aroused discussion on the whole network, and any new topic about "Meng Jiangnu" can attract the attention of tens of thousands of people, and even now it has become a national craze. On Weibo, no matter whether celebrities and companies send red envelopes, they will rub the popularity of "Meng Jiangnu" from time to time, and some people even secretly recorded Tang Nian's acting skills in the dark room in "Meng Jiangnu", and imitated them on short video platforms such as Kuaishou and Xiaojia Show, and in just three days, it has become a national imitation craze. There are even people who have made a more than one hundred and eight commonly used emojis based on the expressions on the stills of the thirty-three palace grids of the Tang Dynasty, which swept the entire Internet ......"
"All of this means that "Meng Jiangnu" has become a phenomenal film work discussed by the whole people, and it has nothing to do with the box office. So, what aspects do the formation of this phenomenon-level movie that is hotly discussed by the whole people need to be achieved? ā
"First, phenomenal movies need a suitable environment, and the Chinese New Year file formed during the Spring Festival is the crucial reason for the birth of phenomenal films. second, it deservedly crushed all the movies released in the same period, forming a suffocating crush, sweeping everything, sweeping the bulk of the movie box office, and the movies released in the same period became cannon fodder; There must be no scene of two tigers fighting, otherwise its phenomenal formation will face failure; Because this is the mass foundation for becoming a phenomenal movie, and this point, "Meng Jiangnu" is just doing a good job, and it can even be said to be very good! Third, the director, the starring, and the plot, that is, the movie itself, can form the expectations of the whole people, with these three points, phenomenal movies are easily ...... Ahem, a phenomenal movie was born naturally! ā
In fact, the third point, Director Zhang is a double-edged sword for "Meng Jiangnu", if the plot is okay, it is naturally good, if the plot is not good, then the audience's sense of expectation will be greatly reduced, because compared to this work, Director Zhang is a large-scale symbol. Fortunately, Director Zhang's storytelling ability for commercial films has finally reached a new height, a height that is in line with Director Zhang's status in the rivers and lakes, and a height that is just right. The plot is good, the leading actors work hard, and the movie can be loved by the audience. I have to say that this time Director Zhang's choice of actors is quite in place, Li Shuangbing, Ren Baishui and other well-known powerful actors have completed the story very well, especially this movie has a peculiar breaking point, that is, the acting skills in it are in charge, and it turned out to be a newcomer who appeared out of thin air, Tang Nian! ā
"Speaking of this "Meng Jiangnu", the biggest surprise for me is that this newcomer who doesn't look big, but his acting skills can crush several other leading actors, here I call on the director to disclose the information of this newcomer named Tang Nian......"
"Bastard!"
Xiao Yitao, who has changed the villa area, saw this, his eyes breathed fire, and he was about to drop his mobile phone the next moment.
"Put your phone down!"
Xiao Yitao's agent, Lao Song, a middle-aged man with black-framed glasses, looked at Xiao Yitao with a serious face, without the slightest intention of joking.
"Brother Song, I really heard the name Tang Nian, I was very annoyed, why didn't he die?"
Xiao Yitao finally put down his phone, sat there, and said with a smile, but his eyes were cold, like a relaxed expression when he crushed a wild cat.
"Don't worry, he won't be able to jump for long, the big boss has already said hello, and this movie is the movie swan song of the lucky one named Tang Nian, and from then on he will be like an invisible man, unable to walk under the flash.
"No, I want him, retire, out, act, art, circle!"
Xiao Yitao looked at the agent and said word by word, his eyes looked straight at him, and he didn't mean to back down at all.
"Ah Tao, your real trouble now lies in the lawsuit with Li Shuangqi, Tang Nian is just a grassroots who has taken shit luck, the big boss has already greeted Director Zhang through his channels, about Tang Nian, he will not reveal the slightest bit of tone, and several other leading actors, the big boss has also given a gag order through other relationships, as long as "Meng Jiangnu" is drawn, we will launch an Internet offensive, so that netizens will soon forget Tang Nian. If Tang Nian is interested and automatically quits the showbiz, we will reveal it, if he doesn't know each other, then we will arrange for someone to go over, find a suitable opportunity to make him crippled, the kind that cannot be cured for the rest of his life, and then throw some money to him, and it is also a kind of happiness to survive for the rest of his life......"
"What's so great about that stinky old man? The big boss is really right, why are you so cautious? I don't believe in an outdated artist, and the big boss has no way to settle it? ā
Listening to the agent's words, Xiao Yitao finally lowered his head, but he remembered the lawsuit mentioned by the agent just now, and his expression began to become irritable.
"You're such a fool! You are in South Korea, and you are used to measuring everything by popularity, because popularity is the only one in South Korea, and you are popular, so an outdated predecessor who has debuted for decades naturally has to bow to you...... But this won't work in China, you must know that Li Shuangqian has no identity in the entertainment industry, but he is an official queen artist, so it is not something that you can directly scold as a popular idol. They represent the official image of the country, if he has his own problems, you can come however you want, if you maliciously pour dirty water on others, even if you have 100 million online fans, it will not be able to shake Li Shuangqi. The big boss has reconciled with Li Shuangqian through his own channels, and the studio will send an announcement for you in a few days to apologize, and this is the end of the matter! ā
"Brother Song, this ......"
As soon as he heard that he was going to apologize, Xiao Yitao was not happy, if he apologized, wouldn't his perfect image in the hearts of fans be shattered? It wasn't what he wanted.
"Okay, Ah Tao, you should buy a lesson in this matter, you must know that in this entertainment industry, not everything can be settled through the big boss. For example, in the imperial capital, I have always advised you to keep a low profile, that is because in the imperial capital, there is a group of people who act more arrogantly, that is, the prince of the Chinese patriarch, if you offend them or make them unhappy, then you are finished, even the big boss can't protect you! ā
Agent Song sighed.
"How is this possible, in South Korea, those second-generation officials are not all people with their tails between their legs, if a scandal is broken by the media, the procuratorate will send someone to interrogate ...... minute"
"Hey, Ah Tao, although you are Chinese, you grew up in South Korea since you were a child, and you don't understand the differences between countries. In China, power is above all else, wealth is just the embellishment of power, which angers the powerful, and he has 10,000 ways to ruin your family...... Forget it, it's normal that you don't understand this, and you don't need to understand it, in short, you just need to act according to the instructions of the big boss, and ensure that you will become the premier king of the new era in Asia in less than three years! ā
Xiao Yitao listened to the agent's words, a trace of strangeness disappeared in his eyes, and then he resumed his impatient expression: "It will take three years, so long......"
"Ah Tao, bear with me, after the Spring Festival, that is, in March, I am going to find a planner to buy the copyright of a popular online novel, shoot a TV series, and create a full package for you, so that your influence in the Chinese entertainment industry will be raised to a new height!"
ā¦ā¦
"Sister Lan, can I go to Hengdu Film and Television City to find him?"
The girl, who had been hiding in the room for two days, opened the door cautiously with blinking eyes, and asked a little dejected when she saw Sister Lan guarding the door.
"No, if you go to him now, you will harm him!" Sister Lan said with a serious face.
"Why? You said that the big names in the entertainment industry issued a ban order to stop Ah Tang from acting, I went to visit him, what's wrong? ā
The girl is really anxious now.
Damn Ah Tang, the phone has been unable to get through, he is really anxious, and I don't know if he knows this fact, if he passes by this time, he can comfort him......
"My eldest lady, you are such a big star, if you pass at this time, if you don't have a drama appointment, you will definitely attract the attention of paparazzi reporters, if they follow the past, Ah Tang's peaceful life will be broken!"
Sister Lan didn't have a good airway.
"But how good ...... "Meng Jiangnu" is played......"
A star flashed in the girl's eyes, and after she was a nymphomaniac, she said hurriedly: "If Ah Tang can't act, he won't come to the imperial capital to find me, so when do I have to wait?" ā
"You're so dizzy! You don't want to think about it, Ah Tang robbed Xiao Yitao's play, so Director Zhang will naturally tell him the stakes involved, think about it carefully, what did he say when you invited him to come to the imperial capital together? Doesn't it mean that the time is not coming, and when the time comes, he will come, doesn't it? In this situation, Ah Tang needs a suitable opportunity to officially stand in the spotlight, and you also have to use your brains, the box office of "Meng Jiangnu" has exceeded 2 billion, and it may even exceed 3 billion, how could Ah Tang not know such a big thing? There are not a few people who know Ah Tang in Hengdu Film and Television City, and there are more than a dozen rewards on the Internet for Ah Tang's detailed information, and the highest reward amount is 300,000 yuan, but why is there still no news about Ah Tang announced on the Internet? ā
"The extras in Hengdu Film and Television City, but they are not at such a high level, and they have come into contact with the Jianghu banning order, so what can they restrain them in the face of the temptation of so much money? It must be because they know Ah Tang and have a good relationship......"
"Ah~~~ I'm really!"
In the face of Sister Lan's persuasion, the girl grabbed her hair messy, then closed the door and hid in the house again, leaving Sister Lan alone to shake her head.
"By the way, I remember that Ah Tang left me a QQ number, where is it?"
In the room, the girl walked around several times, and suddenly her eyes lit up, and she began to open her bag, hula fell to the ground, and began to look for it with anticipation.
ā¦ā¦
Just when the girl was still worried about her sweetheart thousands of miles away.
Just when Xiao Yitao was apologizing for himself, his heart was full of hatred.
Just when the box office of "Meng Jiangnu" was singing all the way and going straight to three billion.
Just when the entire network was discussing the phenomenal movie "Meng Jiangnu".
Just when all David TV and even CCTV were in their respective entertainment programs, they were doing everything possible to find even a trace of connection with the phenomenal movie "Meng Jiangnu".
Just when "Fateful Daily" released a professional film review about the phenomenal movie "Meng Jiangnu" with a front-page headline.
A discussion on the Internet about the acting skills of "Meng Jiangnu" completely attracted the attention of all netizens.
As a result, the discussion about "Meng Jiangnu" has once again become a national party!
