Fang Yang said: "Although Wen Yubi is not very good at singing, I still believe that the song "Red Sun" can become popular again through the release of "To Youth". ”

Zhao Wei said to Fang Yang: "Since you think movies can bring fire songs, why don't you let Wen Yubi sing your own songs?" ”

Fang Yang said: "Salute to the idol. ”

……

"To Youth" is finally finished, Fang Yang originally planned to finish filming in two months, after all, it was plagiarism! In terms of speed, originality is naturally incomparable, but since Zhao Wei 'took power' in the crew, the fastidious attitude naturally slowed down the filming speed, and it was not finished until the third month.

Soon the post-production was completed and sent to the capital for review. The review matter was also solved by Zhao Ying, and the distributor was also responsible for the first cinema, because the previous movie cooperated happily in all aspects, Fang Yang is not a businessman who must be compared, as long as he can release it as much as possible, he doesn't care about a higher commission.

If other films want to be released, it will take two months to send them for review, and then it may be edited again according to the review opinions, and then bargain with various distributors, and then bargain with the theater chain.

Fang Yang threw a lot of money, for example, in terms of review, the stipulated time is to release the review results within two months, but the review results of this film will be released in less than a week, and it will be released nationwide.

Due to Fang Yang's fast movements, "To Youth" caught up with the summer vacation schedule, and because the box office of the last movie "Those Years" was good, this time the schedule was extended by two weeks, which can be regarded as the treatment of a big director.

At the beginning of filming, Fang Yang bragged that it was a 10-million-level large-scale production, but in fact, the shooting cost of this film was only about 3 million, plus the publicity fee, and the total cost was controlled below 5 million.

On the first day of national release, the box office reported 4.65 million, and the entertainment section of all media went crazy, and the headline was "Recovering the Cost on the Day of the Premiere to Youth".

The media just likes to exaggerate, and the box office revenue is about 30% in Fang Yang's hands, and it takes three or four days to recover the cost, of course, three or four days to recover the cost is actually sensational enough.

After the premiere, the audience's reputation was very good, and the box office on the second and third days did not fall but rose, and on the third day, it set a single-day box office record of 5.2 million.

The major forums on the website are full of comments on "To Youth".

"The first half of the scene on the college campus has many symbolic elements that can evoke the youthful memories and throbbing of the generation with the same experience, and the second half seems to want to express the happy or sad fate of each character in the melting pot of society after graduation. However, in order to be able to explain the endings of several characters one by one, the main and secondary roles were not well highlighted, which made the whole plot and rhythm seem messy and fragmented compared to the first half. However, on the whole, the flaws in the second half are not enough to affect "To Youth", a film worth watching in the cinema, especially for those who are graduating but afraid of the future, and those who have passed away but are emotionally nostalgic to find their shadow in the movie. One of Fang Yang's frequent lines in the film is: My life is a building that can only be built once, and I must make it extremely accurate, not a centimeter difference. But in my opinion, everyone's youth is a piece of paper with no limited theme, all you have to do is to follow your own mind and play freely, and when you look back, you will not regret it and be worthy of your heart. - Film Critic: Nalan Dream

As the second part of the Youth Campus trilogy, whether it is from the overall structure of the film or the grasp of the style type, director Fang Yang can be regarded as an excellent answer. However, like "Those Years", the film still has some fly in the ointment in some details and character portrayal. At the beginning, Zhang Hui and others were very attentive to Ruan Guan, but then they fell in love with Wen Yubi, and the change was a little anxious; Wen Yubi's character is too thin, she was a serious girl at first, but later she was too crazy, crazy about love, singing "Red Sun" at the party, and playing a woman chasing a man in the nineties, which is obviously a bit excessive. And Wen Yubi and Fang Yang's transformation from happy enemies to sweet lovers is not too convincing. - Film Critic: Dreams are books.

The audience's reviews of "To Youth" are generally praised, as for the shortcomings, even the classic film has shortcomings, and many film review websites give this film a high score, and even surpass "Those Years" in terms of word-of-mouth.

In terms of box office, it far surpassed "Those Years", with a total box office of 71.8 million, second only to the anti-corruption blockbuster "Life and Death Choice" released in the same year, and won the second place in the domestic film box office.

More than 70 million box office accounts were distributed to Fang Yang, which was more than 20 million profits, Fang Yang was scared, more than 20 million! More than his Flyer Foundation picked up a year's worth of money in the stock market. That's a tenfold profit! Originally, Fang Yang was playing movies with the mentality of playing tickets, but now he was shocked by the high profits of this industry.

You must know that although he speculates in stocks is similar to picking up money, but the rise of every stock is controlled by the dealer, he can only drink a little soup behind the dealer's butt, if he invests more money in a stock, the cunning dealer will immediately change his strategy, and the stocks that were originally going to rise can be cut down by force, so in the stock market, unless Fang Yang's funds are strong enough to sit in the bank, it will always be just a small fight.

Now "To Youth" has made him a lot of money, which makes his eyes shine: it seems that making movies can be done as his main business. Besides, I have raised so many future first-line female stars, even if it is for them, I have to make the film industry stronger and bigger.

Just when "To Youth" was released, the crew of "To Youth" did not disband, and did not even rest for a day, and immediately changed its name to the crew of "You at the Same Table", preparing to shoot the last part of the youth trilogy, "You at the Same Table".

Gao Xiaosong's song of the same name "You at the Same Table", the copyright of the film can be unentangled with the song, but the reason why Fang Yang positioned this movie as the last part of the trilogy is that he took a fancy to the IP of the song "You at the Same Table".

At this time, there is no such thing as IP, even the author can't think that the title of the song can be valuable, when Ah Kun found Gao Xiaosong to buy the film copyright of the song "You at the Same Table", Gao Xiaosong offered 10,000 yuan, but Fang Yang gave him 100,000 yuan very kindly, because with the popularity of this song, this IP is worth this price.
