After the broadcast of this episode of the I Love Lyrics program on Friday night, September 28, the single-day box office of "Crazy Stone" hit a new high, reaching an astonishing 6 million! A lot of people are like crazy, walking into the cinema again and again,

Yangcheng Evening News reporter Zong Shaojie came to the cinema and kept looking for interviews. The question he asks is simple: Why did you come to the cinema to see "Crazy Stone"?

"This movie is very popular now, my classmates have watched it, and I want to watch it too." This is a middle school student who is not wearing a school uniform.

Zong Shaojie was a little strange and said, "Today Tuesday, you should have a class, right?" ”

"Ah, I'm skipping class. I don't usually have time to ......," the middle school student replied, then turned around and disappeared into the crowd.

Skipping class to watch a movie? O current students, alas! Zong Shaojie sighed and continued to look for the next interview target.

This is a polite young man, he lifted his glasses and said: "The movie is very interesting, there are multiple clues intersecting, and there are many laughs in it." This is my second time here, mainly to revisit the movie. Of course, that mega million jackpot is what made me walk here again. What if you get hit? ”

Zong Shaojie was speechless, what if he didn't hit? He moved on to the next target. This is a middle-aged aunt.

"This time, I brought my son and daughter-in-law with me, just to let them watch a movie and relax. If you can hit a jackpot, even better! Aunt said happily.

Zong Shaojie interviewed for a morning and found that only 37% of people came to the movie itself, and 46% of people had the luck of winning a million jackpot in addition to watching the movie. Another 3% have a clear purpose - for the million-dollar jackpot!

This seems a little incredible to Zong Shaojie. The interviewee gave an explanation. The odds of winning the 5 million jackpot are infinitely close to zero, but the odds of winning the 1 in 1 million jackpot are 1 in 2.67 million, or even greater!

When Zong Shaojie published the results of this investigation and the latter sentence on the Yangcheng Evening News, it immediately caused an uproar in the society. Some media outlets came forward and accused Qingyun Entertainment of having sinister intentions. Through this means of winning the lottery, they continue to loot the movie ticket money in the hands of the people. They issued a strong call to boycott Qingyun Entertainment and boycott "Crazy Stone". There are even some media that directly pointed out that Qingyun Entertainment operates in the dark, using the "Million Prize" as a gimmick to deceive and make huge profits!

At this time, a girl named Huang Shengyi stood up. She proved to the media. Qingyun Entertainment does not operate in the dark. She has a 1 in 780,000 chance of winning the mega million. Before that, she had no connection with Qingyun Entertainment.

Although Huang Shengyi's behavior has brought a large number of supporters to Qingyun Entertainment, she herself has been deeply investigated by media reporters, and her identity as the deputy head of the Zhonghai branch of Chen Yuan's fan group has been exposed, and her behavior has been questioned by the media.

Huang Shengyi felt very aggrieved, she thought she could help Chen Yuan, but instead she fell into it and couldn't wash it up.

The mega million jackpot event is gradually fermenting. The media was skeptical about the real box office of "Crazy Stone". "Crazy Stone" continues to break records, and the media believes that a large part of the reason is that the "Million Dollar Jackpot" has bewitched and lured the public! And the quality of the film itself. It has also become the target of everyone's attack.

There is no doubt that those senior film critics and peers have more say on this issue.

This film shines a big light on China's low-budget film market, which is dark. The language of "Crazy Stone" is completely cinematic and audio-visual, rather than the traditional paradigm of "novel, prose and even poetry" that Chinese films are good at and firmly grasp. It deliberately appeals to the dialect's special sense of humor, and is all about the comedy of small people in a turbulent metropolis, all with dense and vivid flashing details. Chinese films need more Chen Yuan. (Kyoto film critic Lao Feng)

The significance of "Crazy Stone" to the Chinese film industry is definitely greater than the value of the film itself. Regardless of the artistic merits and disadvantages of the film. Just watching the spiritual outlook presented to the audience by watching the movie is a kind of momentum, a fresh sense of life; This kind of feeling cannot be obtained by means of money, fame, qualifications, political achievements, marginal themes, etc., and these impetuous terms are covering all aspects of Chinese films, forcing ordinary audiences to drift away from Chinese films. (Sohu contributing writer Zhou Yifu)

It turns out that there is no shortage of talents in China who can shoot high-quality art films. What is lacking is the talent who can grasp the market context and make successful commercial films. Don't think that commercial films are easier to shoot than literary films, it is naturally easy to make a garbage commercial film, but it is not so simple to make a commercial film that can be liked by the audience. (Xinhua Daily Guo An)

It takes wisdom and years of accumulation to be smart, and both Guan Hu and Ning Hao have an excellent ability to handle details, and the French New Wave, Italian Neorealism, and Quentin's film noir are all reflected here, and the director has moved this contemporary and popular collage art method very well. (Commented by Chen Kexin)

The black humor in Crazy Stone is stunning. The absurdity is under the natural interpretation of the little people, and it can be can't help but laugh, it is true that the movie has many unavoidable introductions to "Two Big Smoking Guns", but this is indeed a good enough down-to-earth work. (Sohu film critic Snow Eagle)

Of course, there are good and bad. It is impossible for a movie to be flawless and not to find fault. For one reason or another. Some critics have given negative reviews from other perspectives.

It's nowhere near as good as advertised. Everyone's appreciation angle is different, and the soft area of everyone's heart is also different, so no movie is recognized by everyone. In this movie, I watched a few thieves and a soldier playing there, and I was not interested in pursuing the so-called details, so I lazily ignored them. Let's put it this way, "Crazy Stone" is not crazy enough, sweet and sour, happy and appetizing, that's all. (Film critic Zhoushan)

Let's be honest. I don't like the "smart" appearance of Sichuan people, so I don't think this piece has much meaning, so just take a look. (Mei Feng, special writer of the Great Pictorial)

Learn a lot of smoke and learn Snatch! With the shell of the national style, a lot of content (such as killer knockoffs, etc.) is also in line with the national conditions, but the picture lacks a bit of fire. Huang Bo is the most eye-catching supporting role in this film. (Film critic Lu Wushuang)

……

During this time, as long as you open the newspaper, you can see reports about this "Crazy Stone" everywhere. Seems to be because of this movie. It's like the whole world is going crazy.

And at this juncture, Feng Xiaogang's "A Sigh" was released!

At the premiere of "A Sigh", in the face of the majority of media reporters, Feng Xiaogang was full of confidence, and even said that the release of "A Sigh" will definitely grab a large piece of the market, making the box office myth of "Crazy Stone" difficult to continue.

But the reality is that after the premiere. Feng Xiaogang and the crew were drunk together. When Zhang Guoli sent Feng Xiaogang back, Feng Xiaogang spit out the truth after drinking, and said all the worries and helplessness in his heart.

Encouraged by Mu Yu, Kyoto Film Studio invested 10 million to promote Feng Xiaogang's new movie. Billboards, stands, posters, brochures in theaters, CCTV6 movie reports, movie theme songs, and movie review mouthpieces. And so on, all that can be thought of. All the propaganda methods that can make a big impact in a short period of time have been done.

The producer has high hopes for "A Sigh", after all, there is a big sign of Feng Xiaogang, and he has done so much publicity work, there is no reason to compete for a small production? As a representative of the producer, Tang Xing once confided in the media the box office expectation - 60 million! 60 million box office, not only can recoup the investment. You can also make a small profit.

The producer's calculation was very loud, but on the first day of the release of "A Sigh", it gave them a great blow!

The attendance rate of "A Sigh" is less than 50%! "Crazy Stone" queued up to buy tickets, and it was hard to find a ticket. The movie tickets for "A Sigh" could not be sold. The two are completely incomparable.

The box office on the first day was quickly counted, and Mu Yu got the data as soon as possible. He smiled faintly. Didn't say anything.

After Li Yisheng saw the box office of "A Sigh" on the first day, he sighed faintly and didn't say much.

After Tang Xing got the news, his eyes were black and he almost fainted.

The box office of "A Sigh" on the first day was only a pitiful 1.69 million!

By the next day, the box office was even less than 1.5 million.

Tsing Yun Entertainment Co., Ltd.

Chen Yuan looked at the film schedule in his hand and said with a smile: "I didn't expect the famous Feng Xiaogang to take on the role of cannon fodder. The attendance rate of "A Sigh" is not high, but the number of films scheduled is not small. They're a good plan! ”

Ye Yun nodded and said: "After "A Sigh" is drawn, its film schedule will definitely be divided between "Tokyo Raiders" released tomorrow and "Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon" released the day after tomorrow. By the end of the week, the proportion of "Crazy Stone" will be squeezed to 50% by several new films. According to the schedule of cinemas, if one or two of the new films have a high attendance rate, the proportion of films will increase in the new week, and the proportion of our film schedule will be further reduced. ”

"That's how that genius used it against us?" Chen Yuan smiled.

Ye Yun reminded: "The reason why the great director Feng Xiaogang's film failed is mainly because the audience of this film is too small. "Tokyo Raiders" and "Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon" are different, especially the latter, which is highly regarded by the outside world. ”

"Everything that needs to be done has been done, and if his tricks really work, it can only be said that our movie is not good enough!" Chen Yuan said with a smile, "I believe in the quality of the film of "Crazy Stone"! ”

Ye Yun saw that Chen Yuan was so confident, so he didn't say anything anymore. She took out a new copy and handed it to Chen Yuan. At the same time, he said: "These days, the company has successively absorbed some talents. As the company grows, there will be more and more talent in the company, and so will our demand for office space. The office building was quickly out of the way for our needs......"

Chen Yuan, who was flipping through the copy, raised his head abruptly and said, "You mean to change places?" But Qingyun County is so big, there is no better office space......"

"There are two options, one is to relocate the company to nearby big cities, such as Jinan and Kyoto. The other is to build a new office building! Ye Yun said.

Chen Yuan sighed softly, and then buried his head and continued to read the copy.

Suddenly, there was a knock on the office door. Chen Yuan, who was reading the copy, couldn't help frowning and said, "Come in!" ”

Then I saw the door being pushed open, and Sun Li, dressed in professional attire, walked in.

She glanced at the office and knew she hadn't come at the right time. She smiled embarrassedly and said, "Mr. Chen, the lucky fans who won the million-dollar prize have come to the company." And under the witness of the two comrades of the impartial body, the million-dollar bonus has been transferred from the finance department.

"Oh, I know, you go down," After finishing speaking, Chen Yuan lowered his head and continued to look at the copy. Chen Yuan watched it for a long time and vaguely felt that something was wrong. He couldn't help but raise his head again, but saw Sun Liyi standing in place, looking like she wanted to speak and stopped.

Chen Yuan asked strangely, "What's wrong?" Anything else? ”

Sun Li hurriedly said: "That person didn't leave after receiving the bonus, saying that he wanted to see you!" ”

Chen Yuan was a little amused and said, "What do I have to see." Where is she? ”

"I've been invited to the conference room next door." Sun Li said.

In the conference room next door, Huang Shengyi walked back and forth. She was pleasantly surprised and excited to win the million-dollar prize, but after the first few days, she was able to handle it with composure. Now she is even more eager to see Chen Yuan himself. As the deputy head of the Zhonghai branch of Chen Yuan's fan group, she also shoulders a glorious and great mission!

She was worried in her heart, wondering if this mission could be successfully completed?

Suddenly. There was the sound of footsteps.

Huang Shengyi hurriedly sat down and pretended to be calm.

And then. She turned her head and saw Chen Yuan. Chen Yuan has a very special temperament, which is impressive. Huang Shengyi's heart was shocked, and his head was a little unconscious. Immediately, she returned to normal. looked at each other carefully and found that he was still very different from what he was on TV. Chen Yuan in front of him. It makes her feel so real and so unreal.

"Hello," Chen Yuan smiled slightly and said, "I'm Chen Yuan." Congratulations on winning the million-dollar jackpot. Do you have something to do with me? ”

Yes! Huang Shengyi hurriedly stood up and said a little nervously: "You, hello, I'm Huang Shengyi, and I'm your fan......"

Huang Shengyi? Hearing this name again, Chen Yuan couldn't help but look at the other party seriously. When the name overlapped with the person, he felt a vague impression. Chen Yuan felt that he should know each other, but after thinking about it for a long time, he didn't recall the memories of the other party. He put away his thoughts and invited the other to sit down.

This is the first time Chen Yuan has faced a fan, and this fan is different from Fan Bing's fake fan. The two chatted casually, and Chen Yuan found that Huang Shengyi had a deep memory of his novel "The Demon", and when it came to the characters, events, and spiritual treasures in it, Huang Shengyi could be like a treasure!

After chatting for a while, Huang Shengyi asked Chen Yuan for an autograph and made a request. She said: "Hundreds of members of our Zhonghai fan group have always hoped that you can come to Zhonghai to hold a book signing. When the time comes, all the members of our fan club will be cheering you on! The custodian is more majestic than all the well-known authors! ”

Chen Yuan shook his head and smiled, and said, "You are doing this because you want to make enemies for me!" ”

"Huh?" Huang Shengyi was taken aback, she didn't expect this layer at all, she immediately changed her words, "We can also make the scene smaller." As long as you can come to Zhonghai, we fans can agree to any conditions. ”

Chen Yuan thought about it seriously for a while, and finally said: "I've been very busy lately, and I can't take a break. In this case, I will find a time before the year to go to Zhonghai. What do you think? ”

"That's great," Huang Shengyi was excited, she had finally completed what the group had entrusted her. Immediately, she squirmed and said, "I have another personal request, can you grant it?" ”

Personal? Chen Yuan was stunned for a moment and said, "Let's hear it." ”

"Can I give you a hug?" When Huang Shengyi said this, a touch of red appeared on his face, obviously excited and shy.

Chen Yuan agreed to Huang Shengyi's request. It's not that he wants to take advantage of other people's beautiful girls when he sees them. But in the face of his fans, especially a girl of the same age, he really can't bear to refuse the other party.

The two of them stood up, Huang Shengyi came to Chen Yuan's side, and his two fan arms stretched out, gradually leaning towards Chen Yuan. Because of the proximity, Chen Yuan could smell the light perfume smell on the other party's body. It seems to smell like jasmine, and it smells good.

Huang Shengyi finally hugged Chen Yuan. Seeing that Chen Yuan didn't react, she actually put her little head on the other party's chest.

Chen Yuan's body suddenly froze. The other party's behavior of getting an inch made him a little disgusted. He was about to speak, but Huang Shengyi had already left his body and sincerely thanked him.

Chen Yuan sighed slightly, and it was not easy to say anything more.

"I know you're busy, so I won't bother you much." Huang Shengyi said with a smile, "This is my home phone." If you are planning to come to China Shipping, please call me in advance! ”

Chen Yuan nodded, dealt with a few words, and ended this fan meeting.

In the end, Chen Yuan asked Sun Li to send Huang Shengyi downstairs.

Sun Li and the two went down from the second floor to the first floor and came to the company's front desk. Mama Huang is waiting here.

Seeing Huang's mother, Huang Shengyi couldn't help but pounce excitedly, she hugged Huang's mother and screamed and jumped.

Huang's mother accused loudly: "This is someone's company, you will be laughed at like this!" ”

Huang Shengyi stopped moving, the red tide on her pretty face did not subside, and she said nonchalantly: "Who will laugh?" Where is there a joke? ”

But at this moment, a sweet voice came from the door, "Agent Duan, is your company so lively every day?" ”

is naturally known as Duan Kun, and the owner of this sweet voice is Zhang Shaohan, who came all the way from Taiwan.

Zhang Shaohan came to the company for the first time and found that the famous Qingyun Entertainment had settled in this poor small county. She was puzzled and disappointed. It was nothing like she had imagined. Later, after Duan Kun's explanation, he learned that Chen Yuan, the owner of the company, had a very serious family love plot, which would make the company settle in this kind of place. As a result, Zhang Shaohan has another layer of understanding of Chen Yuan.

Zhang Shaohan walked into the hall and happened to see Huang Shengyi who was screaming and jumping while holding Huang's mother, so he couldn't help but say more. This sentence immediately attracted Huang Shengyi's strong dissatisfaction.

The eyes of the two met in the air, and there seemed to be an invisible murderous aura permeating the hall.

Duan Kun bypassed the two and stepped forward to ask Sun Li about the origin of the two.

Sun Li glared at Duan Kun, she never had a good impression of this professional paparazzi. But since the other party asked, she still briefly explained. came, and asked Zhang Shaohan's origin.

"This is a new artist I dug from Taiwan, with my 13 years of professional paparazzi experience, this Zhang Shaohan will definitely be popular!" Duan Kun said confidently. He thought that Sun Li would show a look of approval, but the other party glared at him fiercely. Duan Kun was speechless, this is simply inexplicable!

In the hall, Zhang Shaohan and Huang Shengyi are glaring at me, and I am glaring at you. No one will back down. As time passed, the relationship between the two became more and more strained, even to the point of saber rattling.

Everyone suddenly realized that something was wrong! (To be continued.) )
