Chapter 632: A Strong Return
If it is said that before, at the 30-minute premiere of the film, many film critics, for this film, it can be said that the praise is mixed, more accurately, the criticism is greater than praise, but when the first day of screening ends on September 11, the film critics' senses have changed greatly.
"Quarrels, gambling, fools, my husband has just died, the house has been burned, and my sister-in-law's eyes have been numb.
Suffering makes people forget yesterday.
The sorrow of an era. It is the same whether it is the mainland or Taiwan.
The pop songs of that era were bleak undertones.
It's important to stick to your true colors, but it's hard.
Don't leave the regret of wanting to raise your son but not having your parents.
Please come with me, this song is good.
It's hard to believe that Zhao Ze can write such a profound song, and the story is also very touching, I have to say that this movie is really good. ”
"First of all, Zhao Ze is not a genius boy, he can write such a touching and tragic script, the production of the film is quite good, and the simple feelings are even easier to move the audience, I admit it, I shed tears.
I have seen too much of the pessimism of the common people, and we can find the real protagonist from life for everyone in it, in my opinion, the most homosexual is the sister-in-law, and as for Ami and her father, in my opinion, they are lucky, what God gave to mankind is a tragedy, and we can only use our own hard work and wisdom to adapt it into a drama or at least a drama.
Life is a process of willing choice, and every moment of the day is even a matter of choice. Everyone knows what they need in their hearts, but the cruelty of reality always doesn't let you fulfill even a small wish. Reality is always the greatest enemy of ideals, and sometimes it is not enough for people to fight it just by working hard. Ami ended up being a slave to the cause. As everyone knows. Life is only filial piety, and I can't afford to wait.
The son wants to raise but the parent is not there. Such a tragedy, in reality, it can be said that countless people, why don't they repeat the mistakes of the past like this? ”
In addition to the praise for the movie, there are also people who can't agree with the movie, more people. even feels that for the movie, it is a little deliberately sad.
Just like the famous film critic, Lin Jimuddin published a long review and analyzed the shortcomings of "The Wrong Car" in detail.
I have to say that "The Wrong Car" is a good movie, but, in my opinion, the plot is obviously deliberately developed tragically for the sake of pathos, which makes people feel that the tragic lives of the characters in the play are difficult to resonate more deeply with the audience. The theme song "If the wine is not sold" hints at the tone of the film from the first second, and the film is in the process of development. The theme song echoes from time to time, and there is no trace of joy in the whole film, shrouded in sadness, which is also where the film may be boring, no matter how hard life is, there is a little joy, precisely because the film is too prominent and pathosy. The color makes the film always touching and feels that something is missing, of course, this is probably related to Zhao Ze's screenwriting skills.
In the film, Amin's father fell into the water and died, and the death of Amin's father and the fire in Amin's house can be said to be the first tragic climax in the whole film, and Amin's own accidental death in the process of resisting forced demolition is another tear-jerking outburst, but this is just a tragedy of the neighbor Amin's family. And the tragedy of the protagonist in the theme song "If the wine is dry", is obviously less trivial than the tragedy of Xiao Ming's family, maybe he has a bad past, but he survived the war, maybe he is a mute, but at least he still has someone to love him, maybe he lost a female companion, but he also adopted a daughter, maybe his daughter did not recognize him immediately at the press conference, but at least her daughter still put him in her heart, at least her daughter is still dedicated to him. Obviously, "If the wine is dried" does not only refer to the life experience of the "dumb uncle", it is not only about the greatness of father's love, but also about the sadness in the hearts of a whole group of people in that era.
In life, it is inevitable to take the wrong car. Perhaps, people came to this world because they took the wrong car.
Ami's experience, maybe she is successful on the stage, but at the same time, it also implies that the generation, the price paid behind the success, people need to part, need to deceive, do what they are reluctant to do, Ami just became a singer, she is lucky, in that same society, maybe many people have embarked on the road of crime in order to live a better life, but they are not so lucky.
The overprints, parallel edits, soundtracks, etc., in the film, all serve the pathos told by the film, and I have to say that the service is very successful.
In my opinion, this movie, in my opinion, although it has all kinds of shortcomings, but it is also called an eight-point movie, and in the end, it is also a sentence in the film: Suffering usually makes a person forget yesterday and live in today's fatigue. The days are all the same for us. ”
"In the 80s, Taiwan had a rapid social development and a turbulent urbanization process. The confusion caused by this social transformation is probably enormous.
Uncle Dumb, Ami and their old neighbors have all been affected by such an era. At one time, no matter what happened to them, they would not be defeated. Uncle Dumb once lost his lover Zhilan; Aman's sister-in-law once lost her husband, brother and house overnight. But in the end, you find that these blows did not have a fundamental impact on their lives. -- In an old era that they were familiar with, they firmly occupied a living space and mastered the way of survival. In such a mode of life, they have been bumpy but have never lost the foundation of their lives, and they have never lost their sense of security, and even have their own happiness full of human feelings.
But times have changed, and everything has changed.
The most typical table is demolition: "After living for decades, you can demolish it if you want to?" - Yes, exactly. The old times are going to be demolished, let alone the house? This is the real deadly fate for these old neighbors, who can no longer flicker around in the old mode.
Thinking back to the death of the dumb uncle, what kind of blow caused him to become depressed? If you think about it, there is actually no heavy blow in the general sense. The daughter can't go home, but after all, she has become a singer. The house was demolished. But after all, the daughter has money to live on her own. The loyal dog was killed. How can it be compared to Aman's sister-in-law dying the whole family?
Perhaps it is a complete change in the ecological environment. Figures of the old era such as Uncle Dumb had to be eliminated completely, first in the social sense, and then physically.
In the second half of the film, Uncle Dumb has been constantly losing: losing his familiar neighbors, losing the life pattern that he relies on all his life, and losing harmonious family relationships...... And he is facing a completely strange and helpless world. The typical incident is: why would her daughter deny in public that she is her father? You can't expect an old man to relearn to understand the rules of the game in business society.
The song "The Same Moonlight" appears twice in the film. One time was when Ami just signed a contract with a record company and faced her new life. Every man has his own mind, and every man has his own confusion. Another time was when Aramco returned to Taiwan after an overseas performance, only to find that the old neighborhood had been demolished into rubble. These two appearances, one intense and the other sad, both have the effect of putting the finishing touch and clarifying the main purpose. In my opinion, the best of them is:
"When does the sound of frogs chirping and cicadas become memories?"
-- The sound of frogs and cicadas, what an idyllic scene. And the disappearance of the idyll is not only the fate of Taiwan in the 80s
Film Critic. It was each that took a standpoint, and the movie was evaluated. However, it is more praise than criticism, looking at the atmosphere on the Internet, Zhao Ze seems quite calm, the original reputation of "Truant Dragon" is also quite good, and as a result, the box office makes Zhao Ze feel a pain in the egg.
Of course, "Truant Dragon" Pinxuan Entertainment is quite optimistic about the award of this movie, this is a box office failure, but in other aspects, it is a very good movie.
With the heated discussion of "The Wrong Car", this movie, which is rarely consistent, has a huge audience, and the Xu Yi brothers are also quite popular, and in the end, they even played a slogan-
Have you ever watched a movie with your parents?
Let's watch this "Wrong Car" with your father!
Anything can wait, but filial piety can't wait!
It's like a bundled sale, this, tied with filial piety and morality, but I have to say that this movie is becoming more and more reflective, and among the comments of many netizens, a long comment, Doudou Online, a long comment written by an ID named 'Lily MM'-
has always been relatively indifferent, or rather, I am used to seeing too much reality, and I rarely feel it, and this "Taking the Wrong Car" made me cry, and this song "Dry Wine Sells Nothing" also moved me a little when I listened to it.
Who's on the wrong car?
Dumb Uncle took the wrong car? He shouldn't have chosen this kid in the first place? Shouldn't you raise Ami? Shouldn't you agree to Ami singing?
Ami hitchhiked the wrong ride? She shouldn't have met Uncle Dumb? Shouldn't she leave her family to sing in order to buy a house for her dumb uncle? Don't
Don't go home to visit your dumb uncle in your singing career?
The composer took the wrong ride? Shouldn't he give up love because he can't give Ami a piece of the sky?
It is we who take the wrong car, leave our relatives for our so-called dreams, wander in a distant foreign land, leave our beloved family in our hometown, leave them endless expectations, leave them with long-term thoughts. Being busy is our most common excuse for hard work
Being busy is to give our family a better life in the future, but have our relatives waited so long?
I remember what a friend once told me, he said, "Every time he left home, his mother would take him to the station, and he would cry." Later, he returned to his hometown to work, married and had children with his parents.
I can't forget the sadness and loss of our parents' farewell every time we leave home, and my heart is also empty in the face of an empty house.
Did we really take the wrong ride? ――
I've been on the wrong ride since I met you.
I was abandoned on the side of the road for only two months, and my cry in the cold autumn wind called for your warm embrace. In order to raise me, you used the money you gave Aunt Zhilan to buy me milk powder that she liked. When you finally bought rice wine and brought it to Aunt Zhilan, you were already gone, leaving me with you all day long.
You gave me all your love. Maybe it's us who moved the heavens. Although you can't open your mouth to say a word. And the first thing I said was "Dad". That moment. Your joy and excitement become the most beautiful picture of your life.
Your favor is the most precious treasure of my life, but I didn't let you send me to school or pick me up from school when my friends laughed at you for "drinking dry wine if you don't sell it". I quickly jumped out of your car, ran into the school, and hid behind the wall to see the endless sadness in your eyes, and my heart was full of tears.
Rifle came into our house on the day of the Winter Solstice that year, and thank you for letting us take it in. We gave it a way out. Not only does it bring endless joy to our lives, but it also saves you and my lives. After I left home, it has been with you and is your spiritual sustenance. When a motorcycle on the road rushes towards you, Rifle jumps up and knocks you down, only to be crushed by the motorcycle. When Laifu was sentenced to death by the doctor, you took a wooden stick to reduce Laifu's suffering, but your heart was dripping blood. It is not only a blessing, but also a deep affection, a forever beautiful memory.
I grew up. Singing in a song hall and being favored by a talent scout to sign a company. I'm busy with concerts all day long. I rarely come home to see you, and watching me sing on TV is the only solace in your life.
The agent rented me another apartment and molded me into a descendant of a wealthy businessman in the United States. The torment of long-term longing finally made you come to the drinking party to find me, and when you were brought to the drinking party, you said that it was my father, the agent
When you hurriedly came to explain, you kept shaking your hand and saying that you are not the father of star Sun Ruiqi. You were taken away, I was stopped by the agent and couldn't recognize you, when you looked back at the door, you saw my helplessness and tears, are you sad or comforted.
I became a popular star, I can ask the agent to give you money to buy a house, but I don't have time to go home to visit you, be by your side when you are not well, and watch over you. The tour is over, I sneak back to see you, only to find that our house has become rubble, you are my dad, and I don't know where you live.
Our house is gone!
Your daughter has also become someone else's star.
I enjoyed the flowers and applause on stage, and you played my favorite childhood trumpet song in the solitude of your home. I was singing and dancing on stage, and you suddenly fell ill and collapsed in front of the TV.
The screen keeps switching, you are pulled to the hospital by ambulance, and I am still performing on stage. At the end of your life, you still just want to see me, the most important daughter in your life.
When my aunt came to the stage to look for me, and I rushed to the hospital, you didn't look at me again in my calls and tears.
Who else can love me so much but you; Who else but me can give you so much concern and regret.
If the wine is not sold, if the wine is not sold, have you heard the song I sang to you, and have you seen my tears?
I don't want to be the red and purple star Sun Ruiqi, I just want to be your Ami.
I will still be your daughter in the next life, and I will definitely accompany you in the next life and not let you think of me again"
This ID is called 'Lily MM' long film review, and it was written in the first person by netizens from Ami's standpoint, although he is not a film critic, but this long comment written has touched many people.
"This MM is simply a talented girl, I want to say, can't you, can you, make a friend, I cried when I wrote it, I didn't say anything, I just wanted to say a word, that's a big praise!"
"When did MMs become so powerful? Nima, it's said that talented women are light, and it's so well written! ”
"In my opinion, this Ami really has nothing to like, hehe, I'm really drunk, this Ami is a white-eyed wolf, the dumb uncle raised her so big, look at what she has done, in short, there is no love for her."
"This girl looks stupid when she watches movies, I really don't see it, what is there about this Ami who loves Uncle Dumb, but I think that if Uncle Dumb doesn't meet her, maybe, Uncle Dumb will be happy, alas, sometimes, good people really can't do it."
"Upstairs, where do you see that Ami doesn't like a dumb uncle? Not filial? It can only be said that Ami is doing her filial piety in her own way. ”
On the Internet, the controversy is also getting bigger and bigger, but, under this controversy, the popularity of "The Wrong Car" is also getting stronger and stronger, and the major theaters are so popular that they naturally can't wait to increase the number of shows.
Cinemas. It's always been so undisciplined. In their opinion. If you can make a profit, then other things can be ignored!
Therefore, in the next few days, the number of "Wrong Ride" will also be more and more, and more people. also looked at the weekly box office of "The Wrong Car"!
More people speculate that on September 11th, the box office of "The Wrong Car" will be released, and it will take six days to wait for this box office, how much box office will this box office reach!
However, no matter how much, I'm afraid, a lot of people. At this time, will not think. The box office of "The Wrong Car" will hit the street again, and it will even hit the lowest weekly box office like "Truant Dragon"!
It can be seen that after three days of release, the attendance rate is 100%, and the attendance rate is 90% even if it is a midnight show.
Therefore, many people have seen that this time, the weekly box office of "The Wrong Car" will reach the championship, but more people are speculating how much the box office of "The Wrong Car" will be.
"Alas!"
"Alas!"
"Alas!"
Sigh, sigh, Wang Bo's huge regret at this time made him feel extremely depressed, he never thought that this "Taking the Wrong Car" would be so popular!
"Old man, do you regret it now?"
At this time, Wang Wei looked at Wang Bo like a victorious general, and said with a smile.
"You !!"
Seeing the appearance of his son, Wang Bo was even more angry.
"Hehe, old man, don't be angry with me, what did you say at the beginning? Ah, you have always thought that interests come first, and now, congratulations, you are already on Zhao Ze's blacklist. ”
Wang Wei smiled, and said even more angrily.
"Alright, get out of here!"
For his son, Wang Bo didn't bother to pay attention to it at this time, and said directly.
"If you let me be here, I won't stay any longer, I really don't want to see you at all now, I just want to sue you that you were wrong."
Wang Wei stood up suddenly, and after finishing speaking, he left directly.
"This kid!"
Wang Bo was a little depressed, but, thinking about it, the relationship between his son and Zhao Ze was a little better, but it was obvious that Wang Bo still wanted to vomit blood.
"Hmph, even if "The Wrong Car" is popular, the box office may not be good."
Wang Bo snorted coldly and thought maliciously in his heart.
However, with the box office of the new week coming out on September 17th, "The Wrong Car" was released for six days, with a box office of 600 million, which instantly refreshed the box office results of song and dance films!
Six days, 600 million, equivalent to a box office of 100 million a day, although such a box office result is not as strong as "Kung Fu", but it is also far from "Old Boy", it can be said that after this movie, Pinxuan Entertainment has made a strong comeback again!
600 million!
It turned out to be 600 million box office!
Looking forward to this week's box office statistics, Wang Bo's expression became quite ugly, this, this Nima, if he was the producer, I am afraid, he would have made money directly, but such a good thing fell directly to the Xu Yi brothers!
"Why didn't I hold on a little longer?"
The corners of Wang Bo's mouth were extremely bitter, and he can now be said to be a huge remorse, this "Wrong Car" movie should have been produced by their Tusha Entertainment, and the result, the result.
I'm here, I'm sorry!
Wang Bo slapped himself hard and said a little speechlessly.
At this time, it was Chen Xiao who had the same experience as Wang Bo, and now Chen Xiao can be said to be really remorseful to the extreme, or rather, at that time, she was fooled by Meng Xiang.
"Meng Xiang, you have made me miserable this time."
Chen Xiao looked a little angry, at the beginning, Meng Xiang said that the next few major theaters will block Pinxuan Entertainment, and at the same time, the major entertainment divisions will also make moves towards Pinxuan Entertainment at the same time.
Outcome!
Outcome!
It's just, it's Nima teasing me!
At this time, Chen Xiao felt quite bitter, he was blinded by lard at the beginning, but the result was that he directly rejected Zhao Ze, although he did not tear his face, but Chen Xiao understood in his heart that he had pulled down the blacklist in Zhao Ze's heart
Zhao Ze didn't know what Wang Bo and Chen Xiao were thinking, or even if he knew, he wouldn't care, as Chen Xiao said, now, they will all be blacklisted.
The box office results of "The Wrong Car" are hot, and the real biggest winner should be Chu Jiayi, but because of Zhao Ze's deliberate hiding, all the media can't find Chu Jiayi's film information at all!
"Who can sue me, this Nima, what the hell is going on?"
"Damn, which, which woman, what's her name? Why, why can't I find it at all! ”
"I'll go, I'll go, I suddenly found that her name was not even on the cast list of "The Wrong Car"!"
"What kind of rhythm is this?"
For a while, fans who like "Dry Wine Sells Nothing" and like Ami, at this time, they began to pursue Chu Jiayi vigorously, and the result was that they couldn't find anything at all.
"Which, Zhao Ze, can't I go out now?"
Chu Jiayi felt quite annoyed, because, whether it was propaganda or the next celebration, there was no place for Chu Jiayi, and it was precisely because of this that Chu Jiayi felt quite annoyed.
"Hehe, if you hold on a little longer, the current situation is almost over."
Zhao Ze smiled faintly.
However, what Zhao Ze didn't expect was that the media began to dig deeper.
"Ami's actor, "Wine Dry Selling", "Please Follow Me" and a series of theme song actors, but I can't find any information about this person, and it can even be said that there is no other information about her at all, and now, even the name has been removed, could it be that it has been hidden?"
"It is very likely to be hidden by the snow, Pinxuan Entertainment has always been a strong advocate for newcomers, and it can even be said that the support of newcomers far exceeds that of any other entertainment company, but the previous few times of praise were all in publicity, and they did quite well, but this time, it has changed a little, so it seems that the biggest possibility is that it has been hidden by the snow."
"This actor, it is very likely that he offended Pinxuan Entertainment somewhere, and the director was hidden by the snow!"
(To be continued......)
