Chapter 287: Comes with hundreds of millions of box office
"We're here to see Wu Wei!"
's very proud tone made the entire atmosphere of the release of "One Man's Martial Arts" deviate. It's also a loss that it went astray, which made this film less criticized in the future, and everyone's attention was on Wu Wei, ignoring the clichés in the storyline to a certain extent.
In the face of top traffic, from director Chen Desen to many main creators, they can only shake their heads and smile bitterly, no matter how much Donnie Yen is jealous of Wu Wei, he can't erase the gap between the two sides in the number of fans.
No one discusses acting, no one discusses the plot, all the discussion is how ruthless, cool and handsome the character played by Wu Wei is?
Such a madman, can he be described as handsome?
People who really watch the movie are very helpless in the face of such a voice, but at the end of it, they can't help but think in their hearts: "Purely in terms of action scenes, Wu Wei's performance is really good, really cool." ”
Professional die-hard fans like Chen Sihui will ask rhetorically on the Internet: "Didn't we watch acting?" ”
Wu Wei's acting skills have become the focus of everyone's discussion.
If you talk about a Huazi, you say that it is his genius, and you have learned it by watching documentary tapes with references.
What about Feng Yu Xiu?
The idiocy of this role was vividly interpreted by him.
He's not crazy, he's just a martial arts idiot, obsessed with the ultimate in martial arts, what he's pursuing is killing skills, in this regard, he doesn't mind making himself crazy, if you're not crazy, you can't survive, how can you be extremely powerful if you're not crazy.
Therefore, he will have those behaviors that are different from ordinary people, will become more and more out of touch with this society, and will become an outlier in the eyes of others, and do some things that ordinary people think are perverse, in fact, in his heart, everything he does is fine.
There is a detail in the play, that is, after the little junior sister was pierced through the arm by his sword, why was the little junior sister still alive when Xiahou Wu came?
Did he lack that little bit of time to harvest the other person's life?
In the eyes of martial idiots, there should only be opponents.
A strong enough opponent, that is, both high and dead, is the greatest respect he gives to his opponent.
The enemy who can't be called an opponent at all, that is the ant.
The little junior sister is not an opponent, but she is not an ant either, she is sealed in Xiu and does not kill, there is no other reason, it may just be that at that moment I hope that she can become stronger and become her opponent.
But how to interpret this detail, no one has an answer, specifically in this design, if you want to say that it is the aura of the future wife of the other party's male protagonist, it is okay to say that Xiahou Wu rushed over to seal Yu Xiu and didn't have time to kill, if you want to rise some heights, as long as the analysis is reasonable.
Feng Yuxiu's final death is a great irony, and it is also the highlight moment of the film's final moments.
Chivalry is forbidden by force.
How can there be a place outside the law in a society governed by the rule of law, and the cultivation is sealed to the extreme, and it is powerful to the extreme, but so what? The satirical education at the end of this play is not offensive, but thought-provoking.
When Wu Wei's fans saw the last fight, they were first worried about Wu Wei, it was really a fight on the road, how dangerous it was.
By the time Donnie Yen beat Wu Wei violently, the former became a bad guy in the hearts of many girls, how could he beat him so hard?
In fact, when filming this scene, there were true and false, but at least half of the blows were real, Wu Wei gave Donnie Yen encouragement, and the other party was not polite, many punches and kicks were really hit on the body, whether he had this idea in his heart or was it completely for filming, Wu Wei didn't want to be entangled, as long as the shooting effect was good enough.
As for Donnie Yen's attitude of being a martial arts practitioner, Wu Wei really didn't take it seriously, no matter how the other party said that his age was there, he was a little upright, and he could understand it.
The real confrontation, the effect of the shooting After the movie was released, the audience was addicted, Wu Wei's face was full of scars and blood, and there was no need to make a hideous expression, which was already very scary, but in the eyes of fans, it turned into distress.
A fist-to-flesh action movie, in the eyes of female fans, I actually saw something else, it was really weird, but when I thought about it the other way, I was relieved, isn't that what happened? The outside media are saying that traffic stars don't work hard in filming, cutout stand-ins don't read lines, and those negative remarks are overwhelming, which makes many young people feel strange, our idols work hard, why do you become not working hard when you come here; They are always gentle and smiling when facing us, how come they become arrogant and rude to play big names in your mouth?
"Look at Wu Wei's filming, we are all distressed, and some people say that he doesn't work hard?"
Wu Wei himself didn't expect that invisibly, he would endorse all the traffic artists once, making the voices of those verbal and written criticisms much quieter, and one pole should not overturn a boatload of people, but this pole is pulled down, and a few people are knocked out, most of them must not be wronged.
"Wu Wei didn't disappoint us."
"He's doing so well."
"From today onwards, I officially become a fan of him."
"He gives me hope for the young future of the actor industry."
After the premiere, eighty percent of the comments on this film focused on Wu Wei, and the remaining little thing was the appearance of many old faces in this tribute link, which made some old audiences recall the emotion issued by twenty or thirty years ago, those who were once active in front of the camera are now dying.
Li Lianjie once chatted with the martial arts instructor in the play when filming "Dragon Gate Flying Armor", who did you learn from, people said that the master, he didn't know, who led the master into the door, he still didn't know, and then up, Li Lianjie remembered with a voice, it turned out that you are who and who are in this vein.
In just 30 years, Li Lianjie lamented that the people he worked with at the beginning are now the fourth generation of heirs doing this job.
Some people should not be forgotten.
I can see some martial arts instructors evergreen, but more, when they were young, they fell ill and quit the profession early.
In front of the stage, there is a shining star.
Behind the scenes, they are also heroes.
The original intention of "One Man's Martial Arts" was to pay tribute, and for investors, they also wanted to engage in a wave of feelings and memories to see if they could harvest more box office in this regard.
None of the designs have succeeded or failed now. The light of the whole movie was overshadowed by Wu Wei alone, and now what is discussed is how good Wu Wei's performance is, and the original intention of this movie has long been forgotten.
Fortunately, through the popularity of the movie brought by Wu Wei, the tribute link still got the effect it deserved, those familiar figures, those who thanked them by name, did evoke a wave of memories, so that the hardships of action movie shooting were recognized by more people.
And this point is still triggered by Wu Wei.
The jump between the two buildings, there have been all kinds of videos and analyses before, and before the movie is actually released, it is still impossible to get a glimpse of the whole picture.
Now that the movie is out, what happened to Wu Wei's jump is also presented in front of the audience.
Of course, the split-shot can have multiple angles, but after getting used to the handsome shots under the technical effects, and then watching such a simple long shot to the end, that is the real dedication of the actor.
That's the real tribute of the new generation of action actors to the older generation of action actors.
At the end of the movie, the dangerous actions in the action movies of the seventies and eighties are edited out and presented to all audiences frame by frame.
The lights in the cinema came on, and most of the people stood still, watching the images, except for a few who got up to leave.
This time I didn't use picture-in-picture, for fear that everyone wouldn't be able to see it clearly, and the subtitles were brushed out in black font line by line in the blank space, explaining to you the classic moments in this picture that may be ignored by most audiences......
The most terrible thing is that a person or even a group of people has paid hard sweat and painful blood, and the footage they shoot has not been widely recognized by the time the movie is released, and it is even ignored by most audiences in the movie.
I'm not afraid that you forget, I'm afraid that you never remembered.
Why does Cheng Long's movie keep talking about his efforts during promotion, and why does he play the tidbits at the end of the film, so that everyone can see the difficulty of every shot.
I'm afraid you don't care, I'm afraid you haven't noticed.
I'm afraid that my efforts have never entered your eyes at all, so I have to remind you again and again.
Like the previous publicity, by the end of the tribute link, in the easter egg section of the film, Donnie Yen, Wu Wei and a number of important action actors were all included in the camera, all of which had a close-up full-body photo or half-body photo, as well as the scars recorded in the video.
Action movies are not for posing, it is normal to occasionally miss anyone and hit anyone, and it is also normal to be scarred during filming, and our efforts are just to make the movie look better.
At the end of the video, everyone is holding the wine bottle, as if they have talked about some happy topic, everyone is laughing and drinking while raising the bottle, and the scars on the body that have just been dealt with are the best snacks in this scene, and they are also a condiment for the sublimation of the movie.
Seven days after its release, the national box office was 650 million. Wu Wei didn't dare to be arrogant, but he was indeed very proud, everything has not changed, except for a change of himself, the box office has increased so much, if he is thick-skinned, he can boast of a sentence, I will appear in a movie in the future, and the box office with hundreds of millions is by no means boasting.
Having just won Best New Actor and Best Supporting Actor at the Academy Awards, those who question his inqualifications can now shut up.
is another work that has won a high box office under the ordinary word-of-mouth that is not rich enough at the story level, "Rescue Mr. Wu" You can say that it relies on the appeal of Lau Dehua, so what about this one? Does Donnie Yen have the same appeal as Liu Tianwang?
Those who chose to wait and see Wu Wei's project, now, do you regret it?
Do those brands who terminated the brand cooperation negotiations regret it now? In a short period of time, Wu Wei's commercial value has doubled again.
