Chapter 593: The Best War Movie in Chinese History (2)
The next day, the first thing that triggered the upsurge of the masses was not the major media or websites, but the People's Daily!
"Yesterday, most of the country's political leaders watched a war film shot by Lin Xiao, a famous Chinese artist and director, at the New Film Association.
"This film, based on the civil war, creates a singing and crying story, as well as nine monumental heroes, and the vice chairman personally praises it, this is the best war film in recent years."
"Minister Zhao of the Ministry of Film and Television said that he will learn and learn from the shooting methods and shooting thinking of the assembly number, and strive to reach the same height in future war films."
The rest, sprinkled with beams, are all statements by dignitaries from all sides.
mentioned Lin Xiao in just one sentence, but this sentence made the entire entertainment industry excited!
This is the first artist in the People's Daily with his real name!
On the same day, many magazines on sale did not hesitate to publish Lin Xiao's photos on the front page with large covers and headlines.
Black suit, white shirt, confident smile, the following title "Rally number, box office rally number, emotional rally number!" ”
"Last night, I had the pleasure of watching a classic. It was the first time I felt like I was a film critic. Because, if I don't do a film review, I can't do a well-known film review, and I don't have a chance to get the invitation to that classic yesterday at all. ”
Zhou Xiaobai, one of the "five famous mouths in China" in popular movies, said freely in his column: "Say that it is a classic, because it subverts my understanding of war films!" What is everyone's perception of war films? Is it the PLA holding an old rifle, but there is a magazine that cannot be emptied, and one person annihilates a platoon and comes back unscathed? ”
"How many people thought that before last night? But, after last night, I'm going to tell you that you're all wrong! ”
This perception was completely subverted last night! The rally, first of all, he brought an extremely good set, and secondly, the truth! Authentic! No matter how real! ”
"It's so real that the audience is moved to tears! Everyone, can you imagine that you are moved to tears when it is not an emotional film? The rallying call did it! It starts from the war, it is thought-provoking, tears for every soldier, tears for the Nine Companies! ”
"Filming techniques, we have seen that Lin Xiao has made great progress compared to the previous film, and the acting skills, I don't need to say much at all, everyone can guess. And in this film, what touched me the most was not his progress in this area, but the analysis of human nature......"
The same is true of popular films, and other media are not far behind.
In the well-known magazine Contemporary Film Industry, the film review and last night's report were published in several pages.
"Nine monuments, a trumpet, dissect war and human nature with films, and pour out the theme of war films - anti-war! Lin Xiao already has the potential to be a great director! ”
"A unique perspective, a story with twists and turns, starting with the number and ending with the number! In the end, there is no trumpet! The rallying cry sounded the rallying cry for the year-end war! ”
"It's hard to imagine how the rallying call, which is so different from the war films of the past, passed the review! And how to shoot such a real scene! Is the movie more powerful than the TV? Not necessarily! It's the directors who don't care! ”
The triumphant song is sung, and on the Internet, it is even more explosive!
"Did you see the rallying number?! The one I watched yesterday at twelve o'clock! All I can say - I am not ashamed to wait for more than three hours! It's hard to imagine! -- User: Mizuki Tsinghua.
"Last night, I cried uncontrollably in the theater, Lin Xiao, why are you so ruthless, I made up my mind to give up Nicholas Tse to watch your film, you are willing to make me cry!" -- The user's crying cat.
"I think there is no need to screen the next few films. Because I just want to hear one answer, is there a good rallying number? What happened to Nicholas Tse? What happened to Cheng Long? It's not as good as the rallying number, and I definitely don't spend that unjust money! - User meatballs.
And on Lin Xiao's official homepage, it was even more applauded.
Black Carnival first posted, "I'm not a military fan, so to speak, there are not many girls who like the military." Also not interested in firearms cannons. I was ready to be a little disappointed, but I didn't expect to cry in the theater! Can you believe it? I cried when I watched a war movie! ”
And Mu Mu also followed closely, "Lin Shuai, you said that you want to go away, as your work of sealing the mountain, the assembly number is worthy of this name!" It's up to the task! You can't imagine how I look at the rallying cry! Classic! An absolute classic! ”
For other fans, their speeches were almost always concise and to the point.
"As your last recent work, I do feel sincerity. The quality of this film is better than the skin! ”
"I don't think I'll watch other people's war movies!"
"Lin Shuai! Sometimes I want to cut open your head and see what's inside! You can play anything, you can shoot anything! ”
Night, twelve o'clock.
Huayi's lights are still on.
Wang Zhongjun, Wang Zhonglei, Feng Xiaogang, the three of them sat face to face in a luxurious office.
The coffee was steaming, but no one took a sip.
They are not in the mood for this at all.
Last night, Wang Zhongjun and Wang Zhonglei went to see it, and even entered the secret theater.
They know very well how highly the rallying call is rated by the higher-ups!
Coupled with that hand-pick, it can only be praised higher and higher, and the assembly number is indeed a shocking film.
They were waiting, waiting for the first-day box office of the rallying number.
"Actually, why wait." Feng Xiaogang sighed leisurely, "Isn't this to let yourself suffer?" Even if you suffer sin, you have to drag me along. ”
The second king didn't speak, and Feng Xiaogang continued, "Today, a few of my friends helped me understand the military department. It was almost all praised, and several commander-level figures actually wrote their feelings after watching it in their own hands. Do you think this is easy? Is it rare? ”
"The rallying call, at the end of this year, should be an unstoppable trend. Other film battles are also death, and hiding is also death. We should be glad that there is no schedule for us at the end of the year. ”
"I know, how I don't know!" Wang Zhongjun finally spoke, "However, if I don't see its box office, I can't rest assured!" ”
Feng Xiaogang was silent for a while, and sighed, "Don't worry, after you see it, I'm afraid you can't feel at ease." ”
At this moment, the secretary hurriedly walked in, and put down a form with a dead face, "Mr. Wang, the box office of the first day of the assembly number has come out." ”
Seeing the secretary's face, everyone did not speak.
The three of them looked at each other, and finally, Wang Zhonglei sighed and picked up the form.
As soon as he glanced at it, even if he had made enough mental preparations, at first glance, his eyes were round.
His lips trembled, and he couldn't say a word!
"How much?" Wang Zhongjun had an extremely bad premonition in his heart.
Wang Zhonglei swallowed his saliva, even with his temperament that is used to seeing big box offices, he is stunned at the moment.
"Titanic ......"
He only said five words, and this time, even Feng Xiaogang almost jumped.
Who is the enlightenment teacher of Chinese blockbusters?
It is undeniable that it is the Titanic in 98.
That year, 2B was just a pencil, Cameron sank a ship, and that ship became the main theme of the world, and the film industry that year was called the Titanic Year.
The global box office list, the box office so far, the first is the "Gone with the Wind" adapted from "Gone with the Wind", countless superstars of that era joined, Vivien Leigh and Clark Gable jointly performed this peerless classic that dominates the box office list so far.
Then, there's Lucas's Star Wars, Snow White. And then there's this giant ship!
Now, Wang Zhonglei actually said that it was the same as the Titanic?! Fifteen million myths?
How many directors and artists are dreaming in their hearts? Counting inflation, the box office of 10 million on the first day is at most 7 million in 98!
"One...... Fifteen million ...... Fifteen million ......" Feng Xiaogang's voice trembled.
This is what he has always dreamed of, but it has actually come true in the hands of Lin Xiao!
Wang Zhonglei settled down, and said with a beating heart, "It's 20 million!" ”
Silence, deathly silence.
Wang Zhongjun fell on the sofa in a daze, and Feng Xiaogang's eyes were wide open, and he didn't know what to say at all.
"Broke the Titanic record...... broke the record of the Titanic...... He actually broke this unbreakable myth?! ”
He burst out laughing, "Hahaha! Lin Xiao! You're good! I was not mistaken! ”
"You're a real dragon! Even if you have to go, it will leave this unattainable peak in the country! It's almost never possible to surpass! Awesome, you're awesome! I, Feng Xiao, have just served you! ”
This figure, even if inflation is counted, is far more than the box office of any movie in China! Even others can't catch up with this one for a week!
After a while, Wang Zhongjun came back to his senses and suddenly said, "Impossible!" How could it be so high! This is outrageous! This is simply not the box office in China! ”
He took a sip of his coffee, and he bared his teeth as it burned.
The bitter coffee rushed into his throat, which made him even more excited.
"Thirty yuan for a ticket, nearly seven million people watched the movie?! When did China's film industry develop to this point? It's impossible! This is an inflated box office! ”
"Mr. Wang. It's entirely possible. Feng Xiaogang had already calmed down. With a wry smile, he said, "When I first heard it, no matter who it was, anyone would think it was impossible." ”
"But if you think about it, if you think about it, five million people is enough. The audience of two million people is about the same as his fame, right? ”
"Even if you go to half of the civil servants, it's almost five million."
"Then how did the two million come from?!"
"Troops." Wang Zhonglei said seemingly calmly, "The public security department, the local armed forces, the armed police, and the qualified army stationed in the provincial department." That's definitely not a million when you count it. ”
"Then there are hundreds of thousands left?!"
"It should be the share that the military district allocates to its subordinate units." After Wang Zhonglei finished speaking, he laughed "20 million...... Million...... The state apparatus wants to push a film, and its strength can be seen...... How can future generations break this record? How to break? ”
