At two o'clock in the morning, the lights were still on in the bedroom.
Wang Xu didn't feel sleepy and was still surfing the Internet. He knew that there would be a lot of excitement on the Internet tonight, and sure enough, a large number of fans and netizens on his Weibo blog and Tieba were in full swing discussing "Moonlight Treasure Box".
As he expected, the word-of-mouth of the film has a clear polarization, those who like it like it to death, and it is praised as a classic; If you don't like it, you step on it to the end and denounce it as cultural garbage.
Audiences aged 15 and 35, represented by college students and urban white-collar workers, praised the film one-sidedly and were very sought after by them, and even college students began to study the significance of the film's itinerant structure, line dialogue, and classic deconstruction to cultural studies.
Audiences over the age of 40, represented by film critics, cultural celebrities, and cultural researchers of "Journey to the West", associate the film with words like "vulgar" and "noisy". The evaluation of the film "Either do something boring in a serious way, or do something serious in a hippie game." ā
They are used to seeing the Monkey King of the six-year-old children, how can it be difficult to accept the new version of the Great Sage performed by Wang Xu, how can the nonsensical Wang Xu also start to incite love 110, wwā„w. love story? In short, for "Moonlight Treasure Box", they feel that in addition to being weird, they are still weird, and they don't know what to do.
Wang Xu saw a person who claimed to be a director, and posted a Weibo evaluation of the film with the four words "cultural garbage". It reminded him of a television interview with Mr. Liu.
Liu Zhenwei is the director of the original "Journey to the West", and he is the one who plays Bodhi Ancestor. He said something in an interview many years after the film's release, exposing the reality of many people in the film and television industry and cultural circles, and he said this in one of the passages
"It's embarrassing, and the people who scolded me are even more embarrassed. Peking University, the most powerful in China. They all said well, how should Hong Kong's film reviews be written? A lot of people started to come out and explain. The people who scolded me harshly at the time finally praised me very violently.
It's ridiculous. I brought them to death, first beating me all over my body, and then coming and rubbing my bruises and drinking, and saying it was good. Not bad. Every time. Many years later. After the mainland became popular, they still couldn't face the reality, and felt that these people in the mainland didn't know how to watch dramas. At that time, the Western Film Studio that cooperated with us looked down on me and Zhou Xingchi, and they all produced movies such as "Red Sorghum", "Singing While Walking", Chen Kaige and Zhang Yimou. The production director, Ding Xiaopeng, told the people in the studio at the scene that there was no way to cooperate with our Hong Kong side. They looked disdainful. After a few years, they praised us, and the posters of "Journey to the West" are now hanging in the lobby of the Western Film Studio. How realistic! ā
After the filming of the entire film was completed, Western Film had objections to the finished film. Zhang Zien, who was the deputy director of art at the time, believed that the film could not represent the artistic pursuit of Western Film Studio, and could only be regarded as cultural garbage. But I didn't expect the film to be a big mess a few years later, and the Western Film Studio forgot all about the original ridicule, and "Journey to the West" and "Red Sorghum" were placed in the same eye-catching position in their honor room.
Wang Xu is no longer a rookie who has just entered the industry, and he disdains the criticism of some so-called film critics, cultural people, and people who play the brand of directors, because there are good and bad among these people. Many people are sought-after and take other people's money to write reviews. and a virtuous network water army.
"Whether you love or criticize the film, thank you, I will continue to work hard. Let's sleep so late! Wang Xu still didn't hold back before going to bed and posted a Weibo blog.
"Hammer Hammer, you haven't slept yet, thank you for dedicating such a good movie, I laughed from the end to the end, and laughed miserably. It's true. ā
"May I ask, who is the Supreme Treasure with in the end, Bai Jingjing or Zixia Fairy?"
"Hammerhammer, ignore the criticism, only those rotten old antiques do not understand the appreciation. I feel sorry for them. And don't you think their voices are very small, we can't hear the small ones, you see, you listen, I like how loud your voice is, and finally I wish the film a big hit before going to bed, Mo Da! ā
"I wish Hammer's movie a big hit, Mo Mo Da!"
Tens of thousands of replies poured out at once, all of which were blessing videos that were big hits. There are so many people who support and like him, Wang Xu is very moved, just like they said, people who like him have very loud voices, and they don't care about a few flies.
Wang Xu fell asleep happily.
Three days later, netizens who like to watch news opened Phoenix.com, and a red highlighted entertainment news on the homepage attracted their attention.
For a heavyweight portal like Phoenix.com, there is an entertainment section for entertainment news, or at the bottom of the homepage, if entertainment news appears on the news homepage, it is basically a relatively hot news, such as Leslie Cheung's memorial day on April 1 this year.
What kind of news is this, please see the title: "Only Wang Xu can defeat Wang Xu, "Moonlight Treasure Box" creates a new myth." ā
Such a headline news is really eye-catching, it turned out to be the box office of "Journey to the West: Moonlight Treasure Box" on the first day of 125 million, breaking the record of 108 million on the first day held by Wang Xu's film "Tang Bohu Dots Autumn Fragrance".
Wang Xu participated in or starred in the movies "Let the Bullets Fly", "Laughing Jianghu", "People in Embarrassment", "Gambling Saint", "Gambler", "Tang Bohu Dots Autumn Fragrance", "The Story of Deer and Ding", all of which have achieved box office success. In today's film industry, no one can talk about appeal and box office influence without mentioning Wang Xu.
He starred in "Tang Bohu Dots Autumn Fragrance" with a box office score of 1.65 billion to set a new box office record for domestic films, and now this record will be refreshed by his own new film "Journey to the West: Moonlight Treasure Box". The low-budget movie "People in Embarrassment" starring him and Wang Baoqiang has achieved an impressive result of more than 80 million, and has given birth to "Thai Embarrassment", which has a box office of 1.5 billion invested by him. "The Saint of Gambling" and "The Gambler" achieved good results of 500 million and 800 million yuan respectively, and the total box office of "The Legend of Deer and Ding" was 2.7 billion, ranking first and second in the box office list of Chinese films in 2012.
Under these obvious box office figures, Wang Xu has made nonsensical comedy a genre, and has carried it forward with his own works. The self-deprecating attitude of the little people, the contempt and insidious damage to authority and evil forces, and those unreasonable ideas without logic are the birthplace of laughter from countless audiences. He is an out-and-out "god-level figure" in today's Internet era, breaking the cultural differences brought about by class and region, and the whole people appreciate and like to see it.
In May 2010, he debuted with an online comedy "Never Expected", and there was still a month left to be three years, Wang Xu became one of the few filmmakers in the Chinese film industry who can earn a cost of 100 million yuan with one person in a short period of time. Such a genius is rare to see in a hundred years.
The editor who wrote this press release had a lot of respect for Wang Xu, which made people wonder if he was a die-hard fan of Wang Xu, because he also denounced the critics on the Internet in the report, and even wrote at the end of the article:
As soon as the big words come out, who will compete.
The king of comedy, who has something to say.
The editor thinks that if there is anyone else who wants to speak and question the title of Wang Xu, the king of comedy, then please open your eyes and take a closer look at this is a ten-year box office list of Chinese films made by the editor and his colleagues, excerpted below:
first place, "Tang Bohu Dots Autumn Fragrance", 1.65 billion
second place, "Thai Embarrassment", 1.5 billion
third place, "Deer Ding Ji II Divine Dragon Sect" 1.4 billion
Fourth place, "Painted Skin II", 1.38 billion
fifth place, "Lu Ding Ji I Dynasty Battle", 1.32 billion
Sixth place, "Let the Bullets Fly", 1.2 billion
The last list of Chinese films in the ten-year box office list can be described as a stone that has stirred up a thousand waves, it turns out that Wang Xu is already so awesome, there are three movies on the list starring him, he has participated in one movie, and he has invested in one movie.
One person dominates the box office charts of Chinese films.
When this list came out, don't say that insiders were shocked, even Wang Xu himself was surprised when he saw it, he didn't count this thing, where did he think that he was so bullish.
