Chapter 196: Hanging a Sheep's Head and Selling Dog Meat?
Chapter 196 Hanging a Sheep's Head and Selling Dog Meat?
Wen Yi's "Source Code" has surprised many people!
The picture is not shocking and hot, but it is very bright and smooth, and the plot is not thrilling, but it is full of ups and downs. If you don't look into it, you can see it as a standard commercial film suitable for meeting three or five friends in the cinema and watching it while munching popcorn.
Of course, if this is put in Hollywood, this is also the case.
However, this film year is the work of a young director in China, and it is only a director who directs a comedy, which shocked countless people.
Put it in Hollywood, that is, a good movie. can be put in Huaxia, and it will definitely become a rare film.
This film has been affirmed by many people in terms of details.
After the crossing, every time the protagonist played by Liu Qinghua opens his eyes, the things in his life are basically the same, but they are different. When she woke up for the first time, Lin Yuyan told him that she had canceled something, and then hung up the phone, and did not help Liu Qinghua shine the coke on her shoes. When she woke up the second time, Lin Yuyan told Liu Qinghua that she had registered for a law class and was about to go to India, that the phone did not ring, and that she helped him polish the Coke on his shoes.
After the release of "Source Code", it really shocked many people, especially those filmmakers.
Science fiction is an extremely weak film genre in Chinese films. Film directors who can shoot, or even dare to shoot, are rare.
After Wen Yi filmed "Crazy Stone", it was rumored that he was going to shoot a science fiction film, and I don't know how many people wanted to see his jokes and waited to laugh at him.
It's just that what people didn't expect is. Wen Yi not only really made a science fiction film. And after the release. Not only is the reputation excellent, but the box office is also showing a hot trend.
On the first day of release, the box office champion of the day was easily won. On the second day of release, the box office increased unabated, and on the third day, with the explosion of word-of-mouth, the box office increased again, and the box office easily exceeded 100 million in three days, which also amazed countless people.
week down. With a box office of nearly 300 million, it won the throne of the box office champion of the week.
Breaking the 500 million level is no longer a problem.
This movie also told everyone, who said that Chinese science fiction films are just money-losing goods?
There is a market for any type of movie, it just depends on whether you can make it well.
Of course, this film is not all praise. There are a lot of media that are picky, and some media even directly say that this film is not a science fiction film at all, but a drama film, a suspense film, and it is purely a sheep's head selling dog meat.
The controversy on the network is not small. There is a lot of discussion around the parallel space theory inside.
However, the film "Source Code". No matter how controversial it is, it is an indisputable fact that it is a box office hit. Moreover, many filmmakers also gave high praise to this film, including several big directors who occupy the top of the Chinese director circle.
Chinese science fiction films can be said to be a pain in the face of Chinese films. Now a rookie director has suddenly emerged and directed a good film. Whether he shoots it out of ability and talent, or because of coincidence and luck.
But at this time, this rookie director should be inspired by affirmation, not harsh critical sarcasm.
I don't know which media is full of support, so I will compare the "Source Code" directed by Wen Yi with the science fiction movies shot by a well-known science fiction film director 6 Ming before. And there is a movie that was called the best science fiction film in China before.
As a result, the investment in the film directed by 6 Ming was more than that of Wen Yi's "Source Code", but it was defeated in the hands of "Source Code" without any suspense. Whether it's word-of-mouth, or box office!
The report was very sarcastic about the 6 Ming, but it praised Wen Yi very much.
"Smack!"
Wen Yi threw the newspaper on the coffee table, snorted, and said: "This report is clearly to provoke the contradiction between 6 Ming and me. Ignore him! ”
"I'm afraid I can't ignore it now." Sister Wen shook her head, then opened her laptop, and then found a video for Wen Yi to watch.
The video is a record of 6 Ming attending an event and being stopped by a media reporter to interview him. And the most acute question in the interview is naturally that many people compare him with Wen Yi, a rookie director, and also compare his works with Wen Yi's works.
It's just that 6 Ming is also an old man in the entertainment industry, and he was actually questioned by the media, and suddenly lost his mind, which was very sarcastic to Wen Yi, a person who had no grudges with him, and was also very sarcastic about "Source Code", a movie that is now popular.
Wen Yi looked at it and frowned, a little puzzled. The man's reaction seemed to have been overdone. These small measurements of the media, as an old man who has been in the entertainment industry for so long, don't you still understand?
"He is the boss of Jiayi Company, this film is invested and produced by Jiayi Company, who knows if this film is really out of his hands!"
When Wen Yi heard this, his eyes suddenly narrowed, and the meaning in the 6 Ming words was obviously saying that he, the boss of Jiayi's company, was looking for a gunman in the movie he filmed.
This is not a mockery, a sarcasm. It's an insult, red. Naked insult!
"I really can't ignore this matter." Wen Yi looked at Sister Wen, and then said, "That 6 Ming is not a fool, why do you speak so imperceptibly?" ”
6 Ming is very famous, especially in the field of science fiction films, and he can be described as a second-class director in China. But that was in the past. There are very few Chinese sci-fi films that can be put on the stage, and nine out of ten are big losses. Therefore, fewer and fewer people invest in him to make movies, and now he is afraid that he has not made films for several years. Sister Wen glanced at Wen Yi, and then said, "However, he has been in frequent contact with the senior management of Bona Film and Television recently, and it is rumored that Bona will invest in his films. ”
"He said so unscrupulously, I am afraid that this is not only to please Bona Film and Television, but also to step on me and "Source Code" to promote his movie!" When Wen Yi heard this, he immediately said.
"Quite possibly." Sister Wen nodded and said.
"Hehe, am I Wenyi so easy to step on? Why does anyone want to step on me out of position? Wen Yi said disdainfully.
Before, didn't South Korea's Cui Baiquan just want to step on Wen Yi to open up his popularity in China? As a result, Huaxia couldn't get mixed up, and even in his own country was blocked.
As Wen Yi thought, 6 Ming satirized Wen Yi and Wen Yi's movie "Source Code", and questioned that "Source Code" was not Wen Yi's work, and when there was an uproar in the media, it was immediately rumored that Bona Film and Television would invest in 6 Ming's new film "Biochemical Virus"!
A sci-fi movie about a post-apocalyptic world!
"Biovirus? Hehe! Wen Yi immediately smiled when he heard the name of 6 Ming's new film.
If you don't die, you won't die!
Wen Yiben is still hesitating, which one to shoot in his new film, so there is no need to hesitate.
"Mr. Wen, 6 Ming is afraid that he is really eyeing you this time." Sister Wen came in and said to Wen Yi.
"Oh? How? Wen Yi asked curiously.
"In an interview with the media, he said that his film will let you know what a science fiction film is!" Sister Wen looked at Wen Yi and said, "He also said that you sell dog meat on a sheep's head!" "Source Code" is a suspense film through and through, and the science fiction elements are only secondary in it. ”
"Huh!" Wen Yi smiled when he heard this.
"Announce the news that I am preparing a new film!" Wen Yi continued.
"You're ready to start making a new film?" Sister Wen asked with some surprise. As Wen Yi's agent, she naturally knows it. Before, he was going to shoot a movie about a female agent and a female killer, but after Lin Yuyan refused, he didn't mention it again.
It is no secret that the company now intends to support Lin Yuyan.
"Just thought about it! It's still sci-fi, and I have also thought of the title, it's called "Resident Evil"! Wen Yi smiled and said.
"Biochemical Virus", "Resident Evil", it seems that Wen Yi really did it with that 6 Ming.
"Resident Evil" was changed from a drama in its previous life, and it was good both at the box office and word of mouth, of course, this is limited to the front, and the latter is too commercialized, but it has lost some of its original flavor.
However, several sequels are still impressive at the box office. Otherwise, there wouldn't have been so many sequels.
It seems that there is never a shortage of news in Wen Yi.
When "Source Code" was highly praised, the well-known director 6 clearly named the sarcasm, and put on a face of a senior master pointing out the newcomer to promote his film.
Everyone was waiting to see what Wen Yi's reaction to 6 Ming's sarcasm would be, and a hot news came out that Wen Yi's new film will continue to shoot science fiction films, and the title is very similar to that 6 Ming's new film, called "Resident Evil"! (To be continued......)
