Chapter 699: Little Swallow vs. Special Primitives

No matter what others think, as a man who has never gone to college, He Mu feels that Zhao Wei's "To Youth" touches him a lot.

When watching the film, some people like the first half, they feel that it is very college atmosphere of that era, and they also have a lot of feelings for the emotional part of the hero and heroine, there are laughter and tears, when the heroine Zheng Wei sang the song "Red Sun" on stage, everyone couldn't help but get up, clenching their fists, hoping that Chen Xiaozheng could accept Zheng Wei's feelings, as if he confessed in college and hoped that the girl/guy opposite would promise him.

For the second half, I don't like as much as the first half, but there are also a lot, after entering the reality of society, the bloody after the breakdown of love can still resonate with many audiences, and many people feel the same way.

But many people feel that the front and back of the movie are too separated, the transition is not smooth enough, just now it was still young and bright, and in the blink of an eye, it became melancholy and sad, just now it was a small freshness on campus, and it immediately became the cruelty of society.

The transformation of Zheng Wei in the novel can also make some foreshadowing and explanation through guò delicate words, a few words can make readers understand Zheng Wei, but the image does not have part of the function of words, and Li Qiao insists on writing like this, Zhao Wei insists on shooting like this, she believes that youth takes graduation as the dividing line, and the front and back are very distinct, you can be carefree and heartless before graduation, but you must accept the test of society after graduation. There are hardships there that cannot be imagined in ivory towers.

In the end, the film was released in an edited version of Zhao Wei, which set off a wave of youth nostalgia at the end of April. There are two suspenses for the release of "To Youth". The first is whether it can overturn the Hollywood blockbuster "Special Forces 2" that won a box office of 200 million last week, and the second is whether Zhao Wei can surpass Xue Xiaolu and become the highest-grossing female director in the mainland.

The first suspense. Soon to be revealed.

With the strong personality charm and box office appeal of Zhao Wei and He Mu, the two superstars, Han Geng, Tong Liya and other popular idols in the hearts of young people, as well as a strong cameo lineup such as Han Hong, Pan Hong, and Yang Lan. Faye Wong sang the theme song "To Youth", coupled with the escort of Guan Jinpeng, the original novel of Xin Yiwu was widely disseminated and a considerable number of readers, "To Our Dying Youth" won 35% of the film schedule on the first day. and "Special Forces 2" and "Crazy Primitives", two powerful Hollywood blockbusters. It shows that the theater chain is full of confidence in this movie.

And "To Youth" also lived up to expectations, the first day of the table was unexpectedly good, with an average of more than 80 people per game, an attendance rate of up to 50%, and a high box office of 50 million on the first day (including midnight and on-demand box office)! This result surpassed "Thai Embarrassment" in 2D movies, second only to the last two parts of the "Zi Bu Si" series!

In terms of publicity, Zhao Wei personally went into battle, and took He Mu and Han Geng, the two male gods, as well as Yang Zishan, Jiang Shuying and several other main actors who became popular in "To Youth" to run propaganda all over the country. The box office in the back is rising, and the film schedule is higher and higher day by day. Out of the box office curve of Sunday> Saturday > Sunday, the box office in the first three days was as high as 170 million, and the number of moviegoers exceeded 5 million!

"Special Forces 2", which ranks second, is only a fraction of "To Youth", less than 70 million, which is not the opponent of "To Youth" at all. The word-of-mouth DreamWorks animation "Crazy Primitives" ranked third with 61 million, with a cumulative box office of just over 100 million, and was hailed as the best animated film this year, which also caused a lot of sensation and attention.

Of course, this sensation can't be compared with "To Youth", "To Youth" not only has a super high box office, but also crushes all movies of the same period, "To Youth" has become the most widely circulated word on campus at present, and those college students are almost discussing Youth whether they like movies or not.

Zhao Wei herself is the youth memories of many people in the 80s and 90s, and as a director, she filmed a story related to youth for her graduate graduation work, even if there is no performance by herself, it is enough for a large number of fans to enter the cinema for a reminiscence of that time.

He Mu is not as senior as Zhao Wei as an actor, and no role has as extensive influence as Xiaoyanzi back then, but he has also been in the industry for seven or eight years, many of his little fans have grown up, going to college, getting married, and having children, all of which have accompanied He Mu's film and television image all the way, even if there is less of the fanaticism when he was just hooked up, but when He Mu and the word youth are mixed together, it can still make many people sigh and sigh, The young man who used to struggle in the entertainment industry has grown into a person that many big stars in the entertainment industry have to look up to, and he has made friends with top names and even Hollywood stars and directors, and those young boys and girls who have been paying attention to him and supporting him have also entered the youth one after another.

"What do you think youth is, and what is your youth story like?" Outside the cinema, the reporter immediately interviewed those who watched "To Youth".

A pair of old grandfathers smiled sweetly and held his wife's hand, "My youth is her." ”

An urban beauty said with a Xiao Rope expression, "My youth is in the United States, just like He Mu in the movie." ”

A beautiful girl snuggled up to her boyfriend and said, "We met in college, and he took the initiative to chase me......"

A college boy with an image of inconsiderate lamentation, "Only good-looking people have youth, and only universities have such people." ”

Although this classmate's idea is very pessimistic, he still supports this movie about youth with his actions, maybe as he said, he has no youth, but it does not prevent him from looking for vague memories of youth in the movie, look carefully, maybe there really is.

In the past, when it came to youth movies, South Korea's "If Love Has Providence" and "Sunshine Sisters", Japan's "Love in the Sky", Taiwan's "Those Years" and "Blue Gate" are even more high-quality products, and the mainland, dating back to more than ten years ago, there was a popular "Sunny Day" at home and abroad, but in recent years, there is no one who has really reached the passing line in terms of box office, word-of-mouth and influence, and mainland youth movies have been faulted.

"Seventeen-Year-Old Bicycle" has a good reputation, but it is banned, "Post-80s" has a good reputation, but the box office is not ideal, "Old Boy" and "Diary of First Love" have a good reputation and influence, but it is an online micro-movie, until "To Youth" was born, and the mainland youth movies can be regarded as truly rejuvenated. Audiences are stingy with movies that resonate with them. (To be continued......)
