Chapter 660 The box office champion of the year, the list of nominees for the Golden Bottle Award was announced
At the beginning of the National Day file, Maoyan APP predicted that the total box office of "The Law of Crime Hunting" was 3.8 billion, but with the box office diving, the predicted box office also continued to decline.
From 3.8 billion at the beginning, it fell to 3.2 billion, and then it fell to 3 billion.
In the end, it couldn't even hold on to 3 billion, and it dropped directly to 2.8 billion.
The situation of "Infernal Affairs" is the opposite, and the total box office predicted by Maoyan APP at the beginning was 2.4 billion.
This data is not out of thin air, but is calculated based on investment, starring lineup, and the director's past box office.
Fang Xing's last movie "Crazy Stone" had a box office of 2.4 billion.
This time, Maoyan APP also gave a box office forecast of 2.4 billion at the beginning.
The predicted box office of 2.4 billion is actually very high.
Even the most famous directors in the film industry are not unhappy with the numbers.
Although there are several movies that have a box office of more than 2.4 billion every year, it is something that is unattainable.
Even if it is a big director, the psychological expectations at the beginning will not be so high, and it is very satisfying to have 2.4 billion.
Therefore, many people in the industry believe that as long as the box office of "Infernal Affairs" can reach 2.4 billion, it doesn't even need 2.4 billion, and if it can reach 2 billion, the other party wakes up and says that it will be a huge success.
Even if the box office can reach 1 billion, it is enough to recover the cost and make a lot of profits.
It's just that "Infernal Affairs" still taught people in the film industry a lesson.
At first, the box office was predicted to be 2.4 billion, and then it went all the way up.
In the end, the predicted box office on the Maoyan APP went straight to 3.2 billion.
By the end of October, the movies released on the National Day will only have a few million or even hundreds of thousands left at the box office, and they will be released soon.
And this time.
The box office of "Infernal Affairs" is still very good, as the word-of-mouth gets better and better, word-of-mouth has brought a long-tail effect, and 25 days after its release, the single-day box office on the weekend is still 30 million.
Immediately afterwards, "Infernal Affairs" was postponed, and the release time was postponed by one month.
After this news came out, the predicted box office on the Maoyan APP directly changed from 3.2 billion to 3.5 billion all of a sudden.
However, Infernal Affairs' potential is still underestimated.
Before the end of November, "Infernal Affairs" finally won 3.6 billion at the box office.
Unless there are still a batch of box office dark horses in December, this year's box office champion will fall into Fang Xing's hands.
Because as of November, among the movies released this year, the highest box office is the special effects blockbuster "Demon Hunter" during the Spring Festival, with a box office of 3.5 billion, stuck on a very delicate number.
If "Infernal Affairs" had not been postponed, the final box office would have been between 3.2 billion and 3.3 billion, and after the postponement, relying on the high score to form a long-tail effect, in the month of the postponement, it won more than 300 million box office, and the final box office reached 3.6 billion, making it the highest-grossing film released this year.
There is only December in the future, and there is no special movie schedule in December.
Popular movies are crowded into the Spring Festival, summer, and National Day schedules, and the worst will be arranged on May Day.
The movie that will be released in December will inevitably not be a hit.
If it is released in December, the movie that can still exceed the box office of 3.6 billion will be doubled during the Spring Festival.
Therefore, this kind of thing simply cannot happen.
As expected.
After the end of December, in the jaw-dropping eyes of industry insiders, "Infernal Affairs" topped the annual box office champion without suspense.
Originally, according to the prediction of Maoyan APP, "The Law of Crime Hunting" was the movie that surpassed "Demon Hunter" and won the annual box office champion.
However, the result was beyond everyone's expectations.
"Infernal Affairs" is the film that subverted the film market, turned the tables against the trend, and won this year's box office championship.
Fang Xing's name was once again pushed to the cusp.
Last year.
"Crazy Stone" won the summer box office championship, and at that time, the film industry was already circulating Fang Xing's name.
It's just that at that time, Fang Xing was just a director, not a starring actor.
For the audience, the actors who can see their faces are the easiest to remember, and as for who the director is, they don't care so much.
If it is a well-known director who has made many excellent movies, the audience may still remember the name.
However, last year's Fang Xing was still just a rookie director in the film industry.
Therefore, last year, Fang Xing's name did not make the audience care so much.
This year is completely different.
Fang Xing's "Infernal Affairs", the first actor "Chen Yongren".
Liu Han translated and played the second actor "Liu Jianming".
The rivalry between the two has been edited into various versions of videos by various entertainment UP masters, and it is everywhere on short video platforms.
At the celebration of the box office of "Infernal Affairs" breaking 3 billion.
When Fang Xing was interviewed by reporters, a question from the reporter accidentally became a hot search again.
Reporter: "Fang Xing, did you take Qianqian to the cinema to watch "Infernal Affairs"? β
Fang Xing shook his head directly: "No." β
Reporter: "Why? β
Fang Xing: "Because 'Chen Yongren' died in the end, Qianqian still can't tell the difference between the real father and the characters in the TV series, so until she can understand, I will try to avoid her from seeing similar shots." β
Reporter: "Then did you and your wife go and see it?" β
Fang Xing nodded and replied, "Yes, Xiao Xiang and I went to the cinema to watch it." β
Reporter: "Was there a large audience at that time?" β
Fang Xing: "It's okay, it's the afternoon session, it's not full, but it's half sitting." β
Reporter: "Have you been recognized by the audience?" β
Fang Xing: "It shouldn't be, I was wearing a mask at the time, and no audience came up to me for an autograph." β
After the interview was posted online.
Some netizens began to use magnifying glasses to investigate when Fang Xing and Lu Xianger went to watch the movie.
Then, it was really found by netizens.
On October 3rd, at 3 o'clock in the afternoon at the Times Cinema of Donghai Century Building, an audience member was shooting a video, and they happened to shoot two people wearing masks in the back position.
If you don't look closely, it's actually difficult to tell who the two people in the video are, but if you already know the answer, you can distinguish them carefully and find that they are indeed very similar.
Moreover, some netizens picked up the clothes that Fang Xing was wearing in the video, which were the same as the clothes in the interview not long ago, which is equivalent to a real beating.
So there was a new hot search on Weibo:
[Fang Xing and his wife went to the theater to watch a movie without their daughter. γ
Under this topic, netizens are ridiculing, or they are holding grievances for shallowness:
[Shallow: Why don't you take me? Mom and Dad are bad. γ
[Fang Xing: Why did you take a small light bulb? γ
[Outrageous, Fang Xing actually threw his three-year-old daughter at home and ignored it! ] (Dog's Head .jpg)γ
Originally, this topic was joked and ridiculed by netizens.
However, the forest on the Internet is too big, and sometimes some strange birds will pop up, and they will begin to criticize Fang Xing and Lu Xianger for leaving their daughter at home alone, thinking that the two are not worthy of being parents.
[Three-year-old children, dare to stay at home alone? Is it true that anyone can be a parent now? γ
[What's going on upstairs?] Didn't bring a dog's head, is this serious? γ
[Click on her information to see what the ingredients are, maybe she really thinks so.] γ
[It's as if shallow is really not taken care of at home.] γ
[It's over, I often put my son at home to my mother, and then take my daughter-in-law out to wave, is it going to be criticized? γ
[Yes, directly award the child to the welfare home.] γ
Although there have been some very outrageous comments, most of the netizens' IQs are still online.
Therefore, these strange speeches will eventually be used as a laughing stock and go to the home page.
β¦β¦
The time has entered December, and the nomination time for the 43rd Golden Bottle Award has begun.
The list of nominees for the Golden Bottle Award arrived as scheduled, and the list of nominated films participating in the selection was announced.
As most film critics predicted, "Infernal Affairs" really occupies a large part of the nomination list.
In addition, movies such as "The Law of Crime Hunting" and "Demon Hunter" are also nominated.
After the list of nominees for the Golden Bottle Award was announced, it quickly rushed to the hot search.
At this time of year, it is the time of the Golden Bottle Awards, and the nominated directors, actors, and movies will frequently appear on the hot search lists of major online platforms.
The Golden Bottle Award is one of the three major film awards ceremonies in China, with a very long history, and it is an award ceremony that combines business and art.
For a while, the Golden Bottle Award was held every year, but later it was changed to a biennial award.
The Golden Bottle Award Ceremony to be held next year is the 43rd edition.
Liu Hanyi won the Golden Bottle Award for Best Actor and was named the best actor.
Unfortunately.
This time, Liu Hanyi was nominated for Best Actor at the Golden Bottle Awards, relying on the role of "Liu Jianming" in "Infernal Affairs".
This year's Golden Bottle Award is unprecedentedly hot.
Because, in the list of nominees for Best Actor this year, there is big news.
As soon as the list of nominees was announced, major entertainment media began to scramble to report:
[At the 43rd Golden Bottle Awards, "Infernal Affairs" was nominated for two leading actors at the same time. γ
[Could it be that the Golden Bottle Award has to produce double yolk eggs? ] Will Infernal Affairs make history? γ
[In the same movie, two actors are nominated for Best Actor at the same time, which is very rare in the history of the Golden Bottle Awards. γ
After this topic came out, it quickly occupied the top of the hot search lists of major online platforms.
Because, it is really very rare for the same movie and two actors to be nominated for Best Actor at the same time.
Generally speaking.
In a movie, there is only one male lead, and the roles played by other male actors should be regarded as supporting actors.
However, Infernal Affairs is a little different.
No matter from the number of scenes or the arrangement of the plot, this is the story of two undercover agents investigating each other.
The roles of both characters can be said to be the leading actors.
The three major film award ceremonies do not stipulate that a movie can only have one actor.
As long as the conditions are met, you can be the leading actor.
In "Infernal Affairs", the two roles of "Chen Yongren" and "Liu Jianming" both meet the conditions of the male protagonist.
It's just that in the movie, according to the identity of the role, "Chen Yongren" is the first actor, and "Liu Jianming" is the second actor.
This means that both characters are eligible to be nominated for the Best Actor award.
Therefore, in the list of nominees for the 43rd Golden Bottle Awards, there are no problems with two nominations for Best Actor in a movie.
Moreover, the nomination of this double yolk egg made this year's Golden Bottle Award unprecedentedly hot, occupying the front page headlines of the entertainment version.
Netizens and viewers are very interested in participating in the discussion of this topic:
[There was a double yolk egg nomination, and one movie was nominated for two Best Actors, how does this make other movies? ] γ
[The other two nominated actors: Fight more and fight less, are you polite?] γ
[Although when I watched the movie, I thought "Infernal Affairs" was very good, but I didn't have much movie appreciation ability, so I couldn't see how well the two acted, and now that both of them are nominated, it looks really powerful? γ
[Ordinary audiences can't see how powerful it is, can't professional film critics see it? ] As long as you are a professional film critic, you have a high evaluation of "Infernal Affairs", and basically say that you will definitely win the award, and now it seems that the professional is indeed professional. γ
[Don't patronize the Best Actor, look at the Best Supporting Actor. I feel that Liang Youhua's trophy has been stabilized. γ
At this Golden Bottle Awards, Fang Xing and Liu Hanyi were nominated for the Best Actor Award at the same time.
In addition, Liang Youhua was also nominated for the Best Supporting Actor Award, and his performance in "Infernal Affairs" is no worse than Fang Xing and Liu Hanyi, and he does have a good chance of winning the award.
[There are fewer roles for Liang Youhua, if the Golden Bottle Award recognizes Liang Youhua as the leading actor, I feel that I can nominate three Best Actors. γ
[It's a bit too much to nominate three Best Actors, you have to play one of them. Then I can only be sorry for Liu Tianwang. γ
[If you want to kick one down, you must also kick Fang Xing. γ
The discussion on this hypothetical topic was quite lively.
Most netizens feel that with Liang Youhua's performance in "Infernal Affairs", he does have the strength to win the award.
However, Liang Youhua is indeed a supporting role in "Infernal Affairs".
So there is no possibility of being nominated for Best Actor.
[Liang Youhua doesn't seem to have won the Best Supporting Actor yet, right? ] γ
[I really haven't won it, after all, he is the king of heaven, he became famous early, and he has won three actor trophies, so he has played a supporting role less often. This time, he played a supporting role in Fang Xing's movie. Unexpectedly, he won Best Supporting Actor directly. γ
γHey, Hey...... Now it's just a nomination, and Liang Youhua hasn't received the award yet. γ
[The other three nominees: Champagne at half-time, are you polite?] γ
[Don't say it, Liang Youhua may not be able to win the Best Supporting Actor Award this time, because there is another king in the nomination, Li Xuecheng. γ
In "The Law of Crime Hunting", Li Xuecheng played a supporting actor, and he played it because of Ke Zhensheng's relationship, otherwise with his popularity as a king, he would not need to play a supporting role.
Li Xuecheng's first actor trophy was won with Ke Zhensheng's movie, which is not small.
Now Ke Zhensheng wants to launch a new series of police and bandit movies, and Li Xuecheng is willing to star in it in order to repay the favor.
In a sense, Li Xue's achievements are to carry a sedan chair for Jia Haochen.
It's just that what people didn't expect was that except for Jia Haochen's fans, most of the audience watched "The Law of Crime Hunting", which was actually aimed at Li Xuecheng.
"The Law of Crime Hunting" mainly relies on Li Xuecheng to carry the box office.
Now Li Xuecheng has also been nominated for Best Supporting Actor, which can be regarded as a reward for his efforts.
It's just that Li Xuecheng and Liang Youhua are both actors, and they were nominated for the Best Supporting Actor Award at the Golden Bottle Awards, and it is really difficult to predict who will win the award in the end. (End of chapter)
