Chapter 139: The clouds are light and the wind is light

.lā

Including on Weibo, it has occupied the first place in the popularity of movies for a week!

The madness of the box office is not listed for the time being, the key is that its cost and revenue ratio are too exaggerated!

It is not an exaggeration to describe it as a miracle!

Who is behind all this?

Bai Xiaofei!

Since entering the second half of the year, Bai Xiaofei has released a total of two movies, "Charlotte Troubles" and "Knocking on the Door of Heaven".

"Charlotte's Troubles", the production cost of about 20 million yuan was exchanged for a box office result of 480 million;

"Knocking on the Door of Heaven" is also a production cost of less than 20 million, and the box office has exceeded 000 million in 13 days after its release;

The previous one can barely be said to have taken up the brilliance of twist, but what about "Knocking on the Door of Heaven"?

From screenwriters to actors, they are basically all Bai Xiaofei's own foundation, and even the style of the work has a strong sensational flavor, which is very close to Bai Xiaofei's whole routine when he participated in "The Comedian"!

Two years, uh, one year to be exact - when Bai Xiaofei participated in "The Comedian", it was October last year!

The sketch actor went to the big screen and bloomed with unparalleled brilliance!

A bunch of good reviews on the Internet.

What is a 'ghost director' and a 'box office machine'?

Someone even wrote a special article to comment on Bai Xiaofei:

"Chinese films are blooming, and many laymen are trying to use their influence to loot the box office, and at this time, we especially hope that real filmmakers will stand up! Shoot some stories that the masses really like to see, Bai Xiaofei's appearance is eye-catching, from the beginning of "Waste Wood Brothers", I knew that this person must have the ambition to make a movie, but I didn't expect it to be so soon, "Charlotte Troubles", although we all know that this is a work with twist colors, but, in the same way, it is also a display of Bai Xiaofei's talent, he understands very well that now is an era of fragmented words, so his funny way may not be so special or so advanced, but it is still very likable! ”

"I would like to advise all comedians to first understand what humor is. What is a spoof? What is a hard squeak?

Ninety percent of domestic comedy movies are squeaky and spoofed. The so-called hard squeak is to tickle you.

Squeaks and spoofs are often just a single action, and the lines are also a single action, it is not a reasonable behavior or language, and it lacks antecedents and consequences and imagination.

For example, if a person twists his butt in front of the audience and falls, and the person with a low laugh point laughs, this is a spoof...

Squeaks and spoofs are single actions with little purpose, while humor is integrated into the plot.

For example, if a person keeps farting and laughs too little, if a person farts in an elevator, he will shake his head while covering his nose and looking at a girl next to him. When the character is in an embarrassment, he must show his personal character. A single action can't show the character's character.

Hard squeak, you laugh at people who laugh very low.

The essence of humor is the helplessness and embarrassment shown by people in the face of a dilemma, the sarcasm and ridicule of people, two kinds of ridicule, mocking others or mocking oneself, humor is a series of reasonable performances and actions.

The humor must be in line with the eight words: "the unexpected in the reasonable".

The characteristics of humor are divided into two paragraphs, two beats, the first half is reasonable, that is, foreshadowing humor, even if it is a short sentence, it is first reasonable, and then unexpected, and cannot be directly accidental.

Bai Xiaofei's films make extensive use of darkfield.

For example, in "Knocking on the Door of Heaven", the plot of the two stupid thieves and the unlucky child, the two underworlds were actually threatened by an unlucky child...

In movies, we will often see a policeman who wants to save face, he is a bald man, no matter how critical it is, the first thing he does is to fix his wig first to see if it is crooked.

Humor reflects the character and the inside, the dilemma caused by the character, and everything that can't is squeaky.

The reason why we often say that foreign sitcoms do well and the characters are particularly obvious is actually because they are doing humor.

All comedy comes from the audience's own experience, and humor is dislocation, the deconstruction and reorganization of the audience's cognition.

If you don't understand it very well, then please watch "Breakup Master" again, and then watch "Knocking on the Door of Heaven" again, and then you will understand why we have high hopes for Bai Xiaofei! ”

The audience is full of praise, in this case, if you follow a few advertorials or take a few variety shows, Bai Xiaofei will properly become a new generation of traffic kings.

It's a pity that neither Bai Xiaofei nor Chen Baolian likes the feeling of living on the cusp.

I haven't been interviewed until the movie was released, and I have refused a bunch of variety show invitations...

"Knocking on Heaven's Door" is flying at the box office and word of mouth, what you do is right!

Even if you don't give face, the other party will say that you want to be a real filmmaker or something...

However, when "I Am a Witness" was released, the situation changed a little.

There are too many news related to "I Am a Witness", and every move of the leading actor can make headlines, 'legs', 'chest', 'hair'...

Walking hot search body...

Originally, you are on your hot search, I earn my box office and word of mouth, hello, I'm good, everyone.

Someone is looking for trouble.

Probably because I feel that the environment can't be so peaceful, the situation must be tense, and only when I am nervous, will fans support the idol...

No matter how casual Bai Xiaofei was, he couldn't stand being slandered like this, so he decisively accepted the interview with Zha Lang...

……

"Why did you choose Zhangshan?"

The first question is to ask the role.

Bai Xiaofei didn't think about it, and replied directly: "One of the purposes of my role selection is to find the most suitable person to play the role!" When the script was written, I had already taken Shanzi into account, and his image was a bit ruffian, besides, I was relieved of Shanzi's acting skills! ”

"Does the company suggest that you choose some well-known actors?"

"That's the case, my play, I still have a certain say in casting, of course, the company suggested that I choose some actors who are more familiar to the audience and well-known from the perspective of the actor's box office appeal, but I still think that "Heaven's Gate" can still recover its cost..."

Bai Xiaofei still answered quickly.

"So, you're surprised by the box office results so far?"

"It's really surprising, as directors, the most basic thing we want is to recover the cost through the box office, don't let investors lose money, this goal has been achieved on the first day, and the subsequent box office results I think are purely the love of the audience..."

When he said this, Director Bai's face didn't have any waves at all, as if the billion-dollar box office was a very ordinary thing for him...
