Chapter 387: Box Office Myth (Ask for Subscription Support!) )
…
Ye Sui had her acne a little later than most people - she didn't develop it until she was eleven years old.
Acne is actually quite common.
So, at first, Ye Sui's grandmother didn't take it too seriously, but just led Ye Sui to see a dermatologist casually.
The doctor saw that the symptoms of Ye Sui's acne were obvious, so he treated Ye Sui according to the ordinary pox.
Who knew that after taking the medicine, not only did Ye Sui's acne not work, but Ye Sui's whole body was swollen, and his head was as swollen as a bucket.
The previous doctor didn't dare to treat it again, so Ye Sui's grandmother took Ye Sui everywhere to seek medical treatment.
Some doctors treat Ye Sui according to the method of reducing swelling, but there is no effect;
Some doctors still treat leaf ears according to acne, but there is still no effect;
Some doctors use another way to prevent Ye Sui from eating;
Ye Sui's grandmother was in a great hurry, and even asked the "master" to ask God to trick the ghost and treat it with runic water.
As a result, none of them worked.
Ye Sui suffered a lot in this process.
The key is that a girl who loves beauty suddenly becomes like a monster, as long as she shows her face, she will usher in people's fingers, and some people without quality will bluntly say that she is an ugly monster.
This is the biggest blow to Ye Sui.
After asking for medical advice everywhere to no avail, Ye Sui didn't go anywhere, hiding at home alone and quietly waiting for death.
Until Xu Kai was released from prison and came to the old ghost's house to visit the old ghost's wife and Ye Sui.
After Xu Kai saw Ye Sui, he first asked about his condition carefully, then looked at the treatment methods of the doctors in front of him, and gave Ye Sui a pulse.
Through the trumpet veins, Xu Kai found that the six veins of the leaf spike were peaceful, but they were slightly empty.
This made Xu Kai also embarrassed - at that time, Xu Kai didn't know why his whole body was swollen like this after the acne?
Xu Kaiping has a habit of seeing a doctor, that is, before he can't find the cause of the disease, he has been repeatedly observing and meditating on the patient, and sometimes when he encounters difficult diseases, he can actually see them like this for a few days, and he is not willing to treat them until he finds out the cause of the disease.
That time, Xu Kai, as before, sat in front of the bed and carefully observed the state of Ye Sui, while thinking hard.
Not long after, someone outside Ye Sui's house shouted that the donkey was rolling on the donkey.
Xu Kai saw that after Ye Sui heard this voice, he opened the swollen eyelids with his hand and looked out the window.
Xu Kai hurriedly stepped forward and asked, "Do you want to eat too?" ”
Ye Sui replied weakly, "I really want to eat." It's just that a doctor told me to stop eating for a few days, and there was no way! ”
Xu Kai said to himself: "What does this disease have to do with eating?!" ”
So, Xu Kai went out to buy some donkeys for Ye Sui to roll on, and fed Ye Sui himself.
At that time, Ye Sui had been hungry for a few days, and he naturally tasted delicious, not at all like a seriously ill person.
Xu Kai went through the medical books he had read from beginning to end, and he didn't find anything that matched this strange disease.
In the evening, Ye Sui's grandmother saw that Xu Kai still didn't think of a way to cure Ye Sui, so she sent Ye Sui back to the room to rest.
Xu Kai then accompanied Ye Sui's grandmother to send Ye Sui back to her own room.
As soon as he entered Ye Sui's room, Xu Kai smelled a faint smell of formaldehyde.
Moment!
Xu Kai understood how Ye Sui's illness came about.
It turned out that Ye Sui's grandmother saw that Ye Sui was too old and no longer suitable to live in a room with her, so she arranged a new room for Ye Sui.
In the process, Ye Sui's grandmother bought Ye Sui several new pieces of furniture.
And those so-called new furniture that has been left for a long time and has no harm is actually still emitting formaldehyde.
Coincidentally, it caught up with the leaf spike and the pox.
The poison of formaldehyde and the acne, the two phases are entangled, which causes Ye Sui's whole body to rise.
Xu Kai hurriedly asked Ye Sui to leave her own room, and asked Ye Sui's grandmother to buy a few catties of crabs and come back.
After Xu Kai smashed the crabs, he asked Ye Sui's grandmother to apply them all over Ye Sui's body.
But Ye Sui's grandmother was worried that she wouldn't be able to do this by herself, so she asked Xu Kai to do it, and said that Ye Sui was a child and it didn't matter.
Xu Kai thought about it, so he personally applied this crab paste to Ye Sui.
Sure enough, as Xu Kai expected, in just one day, the leaf spike began to swell.
Two days later, Ye Sui was healed and turned back into that beautiful little girl.
That is, from then on, the leaf spikes that were too precocious recognized Xu Kai.
Ye Sui gave her own reason that Xu Kai had seen and touched her whole body, so he should be responsible for her.
Of course, this is just an excuse that Ye Sui made for herself.
In fact, Xu Kai pulled Ye Sui back from that state where life was worse than death when Ye Sui was the most sad, which made Ye Sui feel that she had nothing to repay and could only promise herself.
But Xu Kai can play with any other woman, but he can't attack the granddaughter of the old ghost.
Moreover, Xu Kaizhen has always regarded Ye Sui as a child, even in terms of figure, Ye Sui no longer looks like a child at all.
After Ye Sui replaced Si Peizhi as Xu Kai's personal assistant, he not only took over Si Peizhi's work perfectly, but also helped Xu Kai deal with Xu Kai's business.
In other words, Ye Sui can not only do the work of a personal assistant, but also do the work of a personal secretary.
To be honest, a high-end talent like Ye Sui who has the ability, good looks and figure, Xu Kai really has the heart to accept her.
But this time, Xu Kai really can't.
Therefore, although Ye Sui was an assistant to Xu Kai during the period of time, Xu Kai and Ye Sui were in and out of the pair every day, and Ye Sui also created some opportunities for Xu Kai from time to time, but Xu Kai never committed anything to Ye Sui.
The key, in order to prevent Ye Sui from taking advantage of the situation, during this time, Xu Kai would bring a few women by his side every moment, in case he couldn't control it.
Under Xu Kai's strict defense, Rao is Ye Sui is shrewd like a ghost fox, and he has never been able to take this out-of-the-ordinary step with Xu Kai.

As soon as "Living Together in Time and Space" landed in the Chinese New Year file, it achieved a good reputation.
"'Living Together in Time and Space' is not a film with a rigorous scientific framework, but that doesn't stop it from being an excellent romantic comedy. It tries to use a time-space setting to pull time into a plane to explore "fate", "possibility", and "life choices". Make these originally abstract concepts more vivid. And aside from the time and space setting, the beautiful chemistry between the male and female protagonists alone is enough to make me fall in love with this movie. The portrayal of the characters is delicate and vivid, and the narrative is ingenious. What the protagonist does seems to be "three views are not correct", but in fact the "real and appropriate" things are all shown to the audience in the softest way. So every time I see the heroine as a demon, I still can't hate her at the first time, but understand and understand her for the first time. This is enough for me to applaud the director's ability to shape the characters and narrative. I have to say that Yu Qingyun is Yu Qingyun in the end, Shen Hehe can learn one-tenth of Yu Qingyun's skills, and he will not make "Fortress" look like that ghost. ”
"A lot of people think that 'Living Together in Time and Space' is a comedy, but I see something different in it. In the adult world, I don't allow anyone to ruin the career I have worked so hard to build because of ethereal feelings. If it weren't for the filth and sin of his fortune, how could we accept the rewritten life? Yu Qingyun's skills seem to be deep again, I am really glad that there is still Yu Qingyun in the entertainment industry, who can always give us different surprises. ”
"The plot of this movie is really good, anyway, the audience in the cinema can understand what story it is telling, at least its theme is uplifting, and its ending is relatively satisfying. I don't know which bigwig I've heard say that the level of director of a work depends on what the characters are doing during the dialogue. In this movie, it is mainly shot indoors, but whether it is Yu Qingyun or Di Liya's room, it is very life-like, the signs of people's lives are obvious, chaotic, and the sense of the times is very different, but that's it, the director also filmed it very harmoniously, very warm, and very healing, Yu Qingyun really deserves to be the world's number one director! ”

Because of the good word-of-mouth support, Xu Kai's strong box office appeal, and the full operation of top domestic film companies, the box office of "Living Together in Time and Space" exploded again unexpectedly.
Its first-day box office was as high as 300 million, the first-week box office was as high as 1.8 billion, and the total box office was 4.9 billion, which trampled the Hollywood blockbuster "Avengers 2" under its feet.
With a movie with a production cost of only tens of millions, it won a box office of nearly 5 billion, and Xu Kai once again proved his unparalleled strength to the world.
Some people say, eh, this is not right, isn't "Living Together in Time and Space" directed by Shen Hehe?
Yes, "Living Together in Time and Space" was directed by Shen Hehe, and Xu Kai only served as the screenwriter and producer.
But in the eyes of the audience, "Living Together in Time and Space" must be Xu Kai, and Shen Hehe, who made a 3-point movie like "Fortress", will definitely not be able to direct a movie like "Living Together in Time and Space".
And Shen Hehe never stood up to refute other people's speculations, which further confirmed people's speculations.
However, Xu Kai has been pushing Shen Hehe, magnifying Shen Hehe's contribution to "Living Together in Time and Space", trying to help Shen Hehe wash away the stigma she made for filming "Fortress".
It can be said that many people can see Xu Kai's maintenance of Shen Hehe, and of course Shen Hehe can also see it.
Shen Hehe was very moved, and once moved the mind of "handing herself over to Xu Kai first, and then saying whether she is with Xu Kai or not".
It's a pity that during this time, in order to prevent himself from being pushed back by Ye Sui, Xu Kai brought a large number of women by his side all the time, and he didn't give Shen Hehe a chance to take this step at all.
The following year's summer slot.
starring Xu Kai (as Liu Peiqiang), starring the popular students Zhang Xian (as Liu Qi) and Xu Mai (as Han Duoduo), a large group of first-class acting skills and first-class celebrities made cameos in "The Wandering Earth" was released.
The film received unanimous praise as soon as it was released.
Even the official website gives "the concept of Chinese family affection, heroic feelings, dedication, homeland complex and international cooperation embodied in "The Wandering Earth". Movies are no longer about superheroes saving the world, but about humanity working together to change their own destiny. Such a concept is a breakthrough in the narrative routine of Hollywood science fiction films. Integrating China's unique ideas and values into the imagination and discussion of the future of mankind, it expands the vision of mankind looking forward to a better future. "Such a super high rating.
As for other websites and film critics, they did not hesitate to praise Xu Kai and Xu Kai's "The Wandering Earth".
"From the spiritual level of the film, under the grand story setting of the film, the imagination that breaks through the sky and the heart-wrenching narrative, the audience can see the world view of the Chinese people, the way of thinking of the Chinese people, and the logic of the behavior of the Chinese people. Giving up personal interests for the sake of the overall situation, or the persistent family bond and the courage to live to death; Whether it is the attachment and cherishment of his homeland, the persistence of Yugong moving mountains, or the father-son relationship estranged due to lack of communication in the film, there are many projections in reality.
From a material point of view, the design of some prop details is inspired by traditional Chinese culture, and when the Chinese audience sees it, they will feel extremely intimate and achieve a great aesthetic fit.
For a long time, many Chinese films have used IP and storylines with Chinese characteristics to reflect non-local values, so that the film as a whole presents a sense of disobedience. "The Wandering Earth" handles this point very skillfully, so that the audience still sees pure and pure Chinese people in the sci-fi scene, and what they experience is still the principles and moral standards of Chinese people. ”
"The various anti-routine settings in the plot of "The Wandering Earth" are a more scientific and reasonable vision of a community with a shared future for mankind in the face of the apocalyptic crisis, and make Chinese characteristics. The mountains are removed from the way, the sea is filled up when the sea becomes a disaster, the sky is broken and mended, Yugong moves the mountain, Jingwei reclaims the sea, and Nuwa makes up for the sky, these are the pride of fighting against heaven and earth in the blood of the Chinese people, and the theme of the movie is very consistent with the theme of fighting for life and hope in the face of the end times. The film highlights the saturated rescue of the spirit of collectivism that is not afraid of sacrifice. First of all, it has hit the audience's pain points and has become an important symbol of Chinese science fiction films climbing to the world's advanced level, meeting the expectations of Chinese audiences for domestic science fiction blockbusters for many years. More importantly, the film has Chinese characteristics and is a unique innovation with Chinese temperament. ”

Under the extremely high evaluation, under the full escort of domestic capital, and under Xu Kai's unparalleled fame, the box office of "The Wandering Earth" finally exceeded 9 billion, reaching nearly 10 billion.
To be fair, there are many factors that "The Wandering Earth" can achieve nearly one more box office results than the previous life.
For example, Director Xu Kai's fame is much greater than that of Director Guo Fan, like Xu Kai's fame and traffic are much greater than Wu Jing's, like Xu Kai's "The Wandering Earth" has abundant funds for filming, and there is no need to save money on special effects, like Xu Kai and a group of domestic film bigwigs can find more and better actors to make cameos, and so on......
However, the most important thing is that the capital has been sent to the right place this time.
A group of domestic film bigwigs discussed with Xu Kai for a long time, and finally discussed Xu Kai, and the movie ticket price of "The Wandering Earth" rose to a very high level.
——Specifically, the ticket price of "The Wandering Earth" in the ordinary Chinese 2D hall starts at 64.9 yuan, the ticket price of the ity4k120 frame theater starts at 88.9 yuan, the ticket price of the VIP hall starts from 198.9 yuan, and the highest ticket price is 258.9 yuan.
This created the box office myth of "The Wandering Earth" of nearly 10 billion.
However, whether it should be said or not, this also brought Xu Kai some bad reputations such as greed and black heart, even if those film companies took the initiative to stand up and say that the movie ticket price of "The Wandering Earth" was agreed upon by them for these distributions, and it has nothing to do with Xu Kai, the producer.
It wasn't until later that Happy Maizi announced the sky-high production cost of "The Wandering Earth", especially when the audience saw that "The Wandering Earth" was spent a lot higher than most Hollywood blockbusters in terms of special effects, and there was less abuse and slander of Xu Kai......
