Chapter 184: Leading
"Million Baby, Silent Warmth", this is the headline of the Los Angeles Times, in the report, the emotional route of the film is analyzed in detail, and finally writes: But when Maggie was knocked down, I thought the ending would be a tragedy, but the captain obviously will not let the story fall into clichés, the liberation of death, the detachment of the heart, let us still retain a silent warmth in our hearts while carrying them on our backs. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info
This reminds me of this year's economic crisis, the global economy is moving, I don't know how many people are unemployed and laid off, I don't know how many people are losing their families, just like Maggie, who saw her career flourishing, but suddenly suffered a fatal blow. But the story also tells us that in the face of the economic crisis, don't be sad, keep that warmth in your heart, the economic crisis will soon pass, and everyone should get back together.
After analyzing the emotional route, the Los Angeles Times also commented on the leading actors, which can be described in four words, delicate and real. The three lead actors, Tom, Hillary and Morgan, give the impression that they are living, not acting. This kind of real performance is extremely difficult, but all three of them performed perfectly, especially Hillary, this actor who can only be regarded as xiǎo famous, actually showed the level of an Oscar-winning actress in the film, which is really surprising, could she be the third Oscar-winning actress under the captain's script?
At the end of the report, there was also an evaluation of Liang Xiǎo Long: The captain of the image of migrant workers in "Black Fist" is particularly memorable, and it also makes Liang Xiǎo Long sit on the title of captain. And in "Million Dollar Baby", the neurotic stockings man is also prominent, so will anyone change his name to the captain stockings man? Seriously, the captain wears stockings and really feels xing
"Stockings man?" Liang Xiǎo dragon directly tore the newspaper in half, then routed it into a ball and threw it into the trash. He even swore in his heart that if anyone dared to shout like this, regardless of the male NV, he would be beaten up again.
"Honey, that's actually a good name." Jessica giggled, then ran to the room and came out with a pair of stockings: "Honey, let's make a show." ”
Liang Xiǎo Long glanced at her, flipped through the Chicago Sun's newspaper, its headline was "The Most Perfect Combination of Business and Art", and conducted an in-depth study of the film's visual senses, emotional routes, and numerous business plans, and finally wrote: "Just like 'My Leader, My Group', not only is it almost perfect artistically, but it also has a strong box office power." What's even more rare is that the various props in the film can be developed in reality, and they will definitely be loved by the audience. ”
"I love reading stories like this." Liang Xiǎo Long smiled, it is undeniable that what was written in the Chicago Sun is what he thinks, not only to rush to the Oscars, but also to use the film to make a fortune.
"Just say that you like sycophants." Jessica snorted, and then directly rewarded him with a kick, right in the middle of the "sycophant".
But the New York Times report was more powerful and stronger than this one, and it was headlined "Million Dollar Baby, the Future of Action Movies in Hollywood and Around the World": No action movie in any country, including China, where action movies are produced, is as impressive as "Million Dollar Baby." Its action isn't the most exaggerated, and its visual impact isn't the strongest, but it's the best action movie. Why? You can carefully watch any fight in the film, almost every shot is a full use of the environment, and it is a manifestation of the character's psychology, as if we can see the heart through action.
What a subtle expression of looking at the heart through action? It is also something that no action movie has. It can be said that "Million Dollar Baby" pointed out the direction for the development of action movies, and what we need is such an action movie, not a simple rush. At the technical level, it can be said that such a subtle way of fighting is also a new technical indicator for action movies.
Speaking of technical indicators, we have to mention the unique design of the ring in the virtual space, which can not only enrich the audio-visual tension, but also express many things, such as "Million Dollar Baby", which expresses the oppressive relationship between classes and is also a criticism of the real society. But what it can express is by no means the only one, with the development of special effects technology, it will express more things, and it is also a new direction for the development of special effects technology.
While all sides applauded, the box office of "Million Dollar Baby" suddenly caught fire, and the box office on the first day came out, and it won a terrifying $29 million. How crazy is it to win the box office of other films in a single day, which is difficult for a week to achieve? Is the box office market coming back to life?
One day after its release, the film review network seemed to suddenly become crazy, and in just one day, there were nearly 10,000 more film reviews. One of them is for the music of the film, which is described as "Divine Sound": "Every note is an expression of emotion, and you can even close your eyes and feel the development of the plot through your ears." I don't know what words to use to describe the music in the film, so I can only use two words to express my opinion on music. Writing this, I suddenly remembered a sentence in Chinese myths and legends, called Da Yin Xi Sheng, the elephant is invisible, perhaps, this is the kind of music I am talking about. Jerry, thank you for bringing us the perfect music. At the same time, I hope that Yanhuang Film Company can release the original soundtrack as soon as possible. ”
This post has more than 10,000 clicks and 1,000 replies, and there is still a lot of room for improvement, which shows people's love for music.
"It seems that I can make a lot of money with the soundtrack." Liang Xiǎo Long Le said, just before, in the original soundtrack, Yanhuang Film Company earned the most "Street Dance Boy", and now watching the popularity of "Million Baby", it should be able to surpass "Street Dance Boy" and achieve a new high.
"Asking Jerry to voice it costs two million dollars, and of course I have to earn it back." Carl also saw this report, he doesn't care about what is new high or not, what he cares about is that how much he invests, how much he has to earn back, or even earn several times back, which is in line with his investment style.
There is also a post on props, which are mainly divided into watches, gloves and clothing, and countless young people are calling for the launch of this series of products as soon as possible, and they can't wait to collect them. Especially for watches, some middle-aged people have also expressed their willingness to buy a piece to carry on their hands.
However, Yanhuang Film Company did not react for a long time, as if it had not prepared for these. In fact, although the demand is already very high, there are still more people who have not seen the film, and the public's demand for the props in the film is not high enough, and it is not the best time to launch it.
Three days, three days after the premiere of "Million Dollar Baby", the box office has reached a jaw-dropping height, frantically sweeping $96 million. You know, it's 98 now, not 08, if in 08, although there are not many box office breaks 100 million in the first three days of the premiere, it can't be said to be dry.
"It's a maddening number." Major media have written about it, and this kind of report has also appeared on the film review network, especially some experts, who have put on a posture and published various comments on TV and the Internet. And under such a trend, the influence of "Million Dollar Baby" is also getting stronger and stronger.
Similarly, the lifeless box office market has finally regained its vitality, and major companies are looking forward to it, "Million Dollar Baby" must not be a temporary "fire", and they all hope that it will continue to be popular until the box office market is completely revitalized, so that they can also recover a lot of losses.
It has to be said that there are not a few films affected by "Million Dollar Baby", among which "The World of Chu Mén" launched by Pyra Méng has the largest revenue, and the local box office in the first week is only the second week, that is, the week of the release of "Million Dollar Baby", the box office has not been impacted, but has risen, winning $36 million. From this, it can be seen that the enthusiasm of the film mi's is ignited, and they have more thoughts to go into the cinema.
Liang Xiǎo Long had seen "The World of Chu Mén" in his previous life, and now he has also watched it again, because it is indeed a very bāng black sè comedy, and 30 years ago, Omnicom Television Productions adopted a baby, and they deliberately groomed him to be the protagonist of the world's most popular documentary Xingféi soap opera, "The World of Chu Mén", for which the company has achieved great success. However, there is only one person who does not know all this, and he is the only protagonist of the play - Chu Mén.
Chu Mén has been living in a city called Taoyuan Island (actually a huge studio) from xiǎo to Da, he is an agent of an insurance company in this city, Chu Mén seems to live exactly the same life as ordinary people, but he doesn't know that there are thousands of cameras pointed at him every second of his life, the whole world is watching him every moment, and he doesn't know that everyone around him, including his wife and friends, is an actor in "The World of Chu Mén".
Although it was felt that everyone seemed to be paying attention to him, and everything he did from xiǎo to big had some unexpected dramatic effect, none of this made this Tianxing simple xiǎo guy care too much. But due to a momentary negligence, the production team of the show actually let the "father" who "died" because of him at the time of Chu ménxiǎo face him again, and the "father" was immediately taken away by the staff, until Chu mén was so grief-stricken that they began to doubt that they weaved a perfect lie for their "father and son" to meet, so as to achieve their satisfactory results.
Many years ago, a young girl who was both a loyal viewer of "Chu Mén's World" and an extras on the show, Shi Wei, was very sympathetic to Chu Mén, and Chu Mén fell in love with her at first sight. She gave Chu Mén some kind hints, but she was forcibly taken away from the set. Chu Mén, who reminisced about Schvia, began to reacquaint himself with his life. Gradually, Chu Mén discovered that everyone in the company he worked for did not really work until he showed up, and the same people and cars were coming and going every day on the road near his house, and what made him even more unbelievable was that his wife, who claimed to be a doctor and went to work in the hospital every day, was not a doctor. Chu Mén began to suspect that the world he lived in, including his wife, friends, father, and other people, was lying to him, and a visceral fear arose.
After learning from the pain, he decided to escape from Haijing, the city of Xiǎo that made him shudder, at all costs, to find his true life and the people who truly loved him. However, Chu Mén underestimated the power of Christopher, who was the producer, director and executive producer of the Féi soap opera. Christopher designed everything to near perfection, firmly controlling Chu Mén in the surreal world of the seascape for nearly 30 years.
After several failed attempts to escape, Chu Mén decided to leave the city from the sea, but he was desperate to find that the sea and sky in front of him were also part of this huge studio, at this time Christopher told Chu Mén the ins and outs of the matter in the huge control room in the sky, and told Chu Mén that he was now the most popular star in the world, and that everything he had achieved today was unimaginable to ordinary people, and that if he wanted to stay in the sea view, he could continue to live as a star, Chu Mén was unmoved, resolutely go to the road of freedom in the distance.
In Liang Xiǎolong's view, "The World of Chu Mén" is almost an absurd story, but this story is touching and heartfelt, and it is also a strong satire on the social phenomenon of profit-seeking and human rights abuse, and it is also a satire to show people the world that has been infiltrated by the media. After watching the film, Liang heard someone say that the film is a powerful critique of the value of "media omnipotence", and uses a virtual perfect world similar to "utopia" to imply the "caged bird"-style survival sorrow.
"The World of Chu Mén" is a masterpiece, there is no doubt about it, but in the midst of the economic crisis, it did not get the box office it deserved, but with the release of "Million Dollar Baby", the box office immediately showed a momentum of growth. But it's not the only beneficiary, and it's surprising that many mediocre quality films also showed an upward trend at the box office this week. And those film companies are all happy.
But this week is just the beginning, and the strong box office ability of the second week of "Million Dollar Baby" is crazy. In seven days, an average of $13 million per day was recorded in the first four days, an average of $24 million per day in the next three days, and a total of $124 million on Monday, and a box office of $220 million in ten days after its domestic release. Moreover, this week, "Million Dollar Baby" was also released overseas, and the warmth in the film also resonated with many victims of the economic crisis, causing a large number of viewers to enter the cinema and frantically win $152 million.
In ten days, just one day, the global box office has reached $372 million, what a crazy number? It's even crazier than when "Titanic" was released. If, of course, only if, "Million Dollar Baby" can last as long as "Titanic", the box office is likely to surpass "Titanic".
However, Liang Xiǎo Long also knows that this is impossible, and there are many films that cause madness in their premieres, but which film can last as long as "Titanic"? Before the release of "Avatar", its box office has always been just a myth and legend, and what is used for all filmmakers to look up to is out of reach.
"Oh my God, $372 million in ten days, I'm going crazy." The image of Hillary Clinton is now gone, sitting in front of the computer, her hair in both hands, and looking at the screen like a ghost. At this moment, she was really stunned, since she took over the filming, she thought that Liang Xiǎo Long's film would definitely be able to put her on the front line, but she didn't expect the film to cause such a big sensation, according to such a box office trend, almost all of them can surpass "My Captain, My Group", and she is likely to become a world-class top superstar.
"This happiness came a little violently." After a long time, Hillary sighed, which is also the best portrayal of her at this moment.
"This box office is a little too scary, isn't it?" Tom, the Oscar-winning actor, was also a little confused, he starred in two films this year, and they were both big-budget films, so he often had to fly and fly between the two sets, until "Saving Private Ryan" was finished first, he was a lot more relaxed. In his opinion, the box office of "Saving Private Ryan" is already very good, and although "Million Dollar Baby" is more perfect in terms of special effects, it will not be too high, but who would have thought that it has only been released for three days and is already close to "Saving Private Ryan", which is too crazy.
At this moment, there is one person who is definitely the happiest, that is, Han Sanping, the boss of China Film. Because many aspects of the film were filmed in China, driven by Han Sanping, China Film finally invested 15 million US dollars to win the release rights of the film in China, thinking that he would be able to make a lot of money, but he didn't expect that he would crazy win 84 million yuan in the first week of release. When all the box office comes out, it will definitely bring a considerable amount of income to China Film.
"It's a maddening film." Carl sighed softly as he ran the company, and his secretary and lover looked at him with a smile, and he added, "Do you hear the calls from outside?" ”
"Shout?" The secretary and lover couldn't help frowning, the office was completely soundproofed, and the call came? Unless hell with it.
"Of course, the cries, the frenzied cries, they shouted, they wanted the soundtrack, they wanted the watch, they wanted the gloves, they wanted the costumes...... They are still shouting that if they don't launch it, they will smash our company. Carl said nervously, and just when the NV secretary really thought he was a hell, he suddenly stood up: "Go and inform the Mén executives of the various ministries, and go to the conference room immediately to prepare for the implementation of the plan to release the soundtrack and props." ”
Carl is right, it has been ten days since the film was released, and the box office in the United States has reached $220 million, and a lot of audiences have already seen the film, and the demand for props and soundtracks is already very high, and it is time to launch it. If it is a little later, this heat will gradually subside, and the losses of Yanhuang Film Company will be tens of millions, hundreds of millions.
However, in this regard, Yanhuang Film Company has long made a strict plan, and now all he has to do is to tell the people below that they can let it go.
