Chapter 467: "Changcheng" is better than "The Great Wall".
On the fifth day of the National Day file, Xu Nan posted a Weibo.
"Thank you for your support of the beginning, and I will repay you with more exciting movies in the future."
"In addition, I want to announce one thing here, the new movie "Changcheng" of Summit Film and Television is in preparation, and it will meet you in seven days."
"The plot of Changcheng is as follows: the demons are in trouble, the people of the world are living in dire straits, only ancient China eliminated the demons with the Great Wall and black powder, kept the peace, the king of the western kingdom sent a prince to China for help in order to fight against the demons, and the Chinese emperor upheld the spirit of internationalism and decided to send warriors to save the western country, eliminate the demons, and establish a harmonious human society."
At this time, it was the stage when "The Beginning" was released, and Xu Nan, as the director, was also rising in popularity, although it was not as good as the two leading actors in the movie, but it was also very concerned.
Netizens noticed this Weibo he posted.
After reading the content, three black lines appeared on the heads of netizens.
Xu Nan, you are serious!
Especially the audience who has watched the movie "The Great Wall" is speechless to the extreme.
You Changcheng, it's too dark for the Great Wall.
While speechless, the audience also felt excited.
This kind of-for-tat plot between the two directors, they like to watch it the most.
It's best to fight.
Weibo soon received a lot of comments.
"Xu Nan, you really impressed me this time."
"The Beginning is a very good movie, really."
"I always knew you were talented, but I didn't expect it to show so quickly."
"Xu Nan: I don't pretend, I have a showdown, I can make a good-looking movie."
"So I won't be able to watch the bad movies you made in the future, don't you."
"You Changcheng, why does the plot look so familiar."
"Is that really good?"
"I just like the way you shoot copycats and touch porcelain to do things."
In addition to comments, Xu Nan's new Weibo soon became a hot search.
#许南新电影长诚. #
This is the kind of treatment that the director of the big hit movie has.
Insiders were quick to get the news.
"This"
"Who is this hacking?"
"Whoever is uncomfortable is hacking whom?"
"This movie shouldn't be made by Xu Nan, and there is no need for him to make this kind of movie now."
"The director of Summit Film and Television shoots, but Xu Nan doesn't shoot."
"I'll just say it."
"Why are you talking about this, shouldn't the key now be Zhang Yange's mood?"
"It seems to see Zhang Yange's expression (it's not a big deal to see the excitement)."
Of course, Zhang Yange was in a bad mood.
No director likes to touch his own copycat movies, especially when the movie hits the street, and suddenly there is a copycat film that touches porcelain, and when he makes money with this, not to mention how bad the mood is.
But alas, he didn't have anything to do.
The only thing Zhang Yange can do is to condemn this behavior harshly.
When promoting the movie "The Great Wall" once, a reporter asked.
"Director Zhang, what do you think of Xu Nan's announcement that he will shoot the copycat movie "Changcheng" and release it within a week."
Zhang Yange immediately said: "My attitude towards copycat films has always been to boycott, the reason is very simple, copycat films are too vulgar, if everyone goes to make copycat films, then who will make good movies in the future?" ”
Zhang Yange's statement has indeed been agreed by many people.
The domestic atmosphere tends to be conservative, and there are indeed many people who are not used to this kind of thing.
After all, it is a country where entertainment is sinful.
The famous director Liu Dongdong even posted on Weibo to Zhang Yange to complain.
"Some people say that "The Great Wall" is not good-looking, "The Beginning" is good-looking, and some people say that Zhang Yange is so garbage that he scolds Zhang Yange."
"I don't want to evaluate the quality of the two movies here, I just want to ask you why you are so harsh on Zhang Yange and so tolerant of Xu Nan."
"Director Zhang Yange has been making movies conscientiously for decades and contributing good works to everyone, just because of a failure, he was scolded by everyone, Xu Nan has been making bad movies since he started his career, just because he made a good movie, everyone praised him."
"What's wrong with the world?"
I have to say that Liu Dongdong's Weibo is very profound and worth pondering.
It's a pity that netizens don't care so much, and few people really think and reflect.
The National Day file began to dominate at the beginning.
On the fifth day, the box office of "The Beginning" was 110 million, and "The Great Wall" was about 80 million.
On the sixth day, the box office of "The Beginning" was 112 million, and "The Great Wall" was still about 80 million.
On the seventh day, the box office of all movies in this schedule fell, but "The Beginning" still had a box office of 90 million.
On the seventh day of the National Day, "The Beginning" won 650 million box office, although it is not as good as the 730 million box office of "The Great Wall", but don't forget that the movie will not be released for a month, and the reputation of "The Beginning" is already well known, and there are still more than 20 days to harvest the box office.
The most critical thing is that the cost of "The Beginning" is only 100 million, while the cost of "The Great Wall" is 150 million US dollars, which translates to more than 1 billion yuan.
Xu Nan has made a profit, and Zhang Yange is still losing money.
The media is frantically making news.
"Beginning to dominate the National Day file. 》
"Can the Dark Horse Beginnings Break Box Office Records?" 》
"Xu Nan's film road, from the sunny river, to Captain China, to Spider-Man, the beginning is not accidental. 》
"Li Ruoshui: Thank you to Director Xu Nan for making me an actor. 》
"Zhang Wei, the road of counterattack from a bad movie actor to a first-line star. 》
"Zhang Yange: The Great Wall has the strengths of both East and West, looking forward to overseas markets. 》
"Industry Expert: The beginning opened a big era of domestic suspense films. 》
The industry also has a lot of feelings.
"I didn't expect Xu Nan to make a wonderful movie."
"After this time, it is estimated that many people's impression of Xu Nan has changed."
"Xu Nan was originally the director with the highest cumulative box office in China, and he must have talent, but because of the controversy on his body before, his reputation was not very good, through this movie, Xu Nan can be regarded as proving himself, and it is estimated that he will be accepted into the mainstream circle."
"Alas, I'm convinced, Xu Nan does have some ability."
"Zhang Yange has suffered a miserable loss this time, and the evening festival is not guaranteed."
"No, the domestic box office of "The Great Wall" will definitely break one billion, and there are overseas markets."
"Yes, I may not eat this one much in China, but I may bloom abroad."
"I admit that Xu Nan's "The Beginning" is a good shot, but foreigners don't necessarily buy it."
Time flies, and the box office of "The Beginning" has gone all the way up.
On October 12th, Summit Film and Television's copycat porcelain film "Changcheng" landed in theaters.
Because of this ungodly name, coupled with the foundation laid by Zhang Yange's "The Great Wall", it won 3 million box office on the first day of release and successfully achieved profitability.
There is nothing to say about the quality of this movie, a movie made in seven days, no one has expectations for the quality of this movie, the key is the plot.
I have to say that Summit Film and Television has rich experience in this area, and the actors found are similar to most of the actors in the Great Wall, and the worst ones also have a few shadows of the original.
Although the movie costume is so garbage that it is speechless, full of loopholes, and full of goofs, the plot pokes at the audience's point.
The western kingdom was in dire straits, and was horribly plagued by demons, so desperate that he ran to the Great Wall to ask the Chinese emperor for rescue.
In the spirit of internationalism, the Chinese sent troops to the western country to eliminate the demons and allow them to live and work in peace.
At the end of the movie, the king of the western kingdom is grateful, and swears to the sky to the Chinese warriors, and from now on, he will always be a Chinese vassal, called a minister and a tribute, and if he violates this oath, the sky will thunder.
Such a plot, although it is a bit thunderous, must be very cool in the hearts of the Chinese people, which can be seen from the comments of netizens.
"Thunderman's movies are shoddy, and there are so many loopholes and goofs that I can't count them, but they are just good."
"Sure enough, it is a familiar peak film and television style, and it is definitely not good to use it as a big meal, but it still has a unique flavor as a side dish."
"After watching "The Great Wall", I have to say that this movie is more in line with my appetite."
"I don't know what to say, just like it."
The most popular comment was: "Better than "The Great Wall". ”
The production team of "The Great Wall" completely broke the defense and posted seven Weibo criticisms in a row.
But the fact is that because of the release of the copycat porcelain film "Changcheng", the box office of the genuine "The Great Wall" rose a little on the same day.
So theoretically, Zhang Yange should be grateful to Xu Nan.
It's a pity that Zhang Yange didn't think so, and criticized netizens for being too harsh on the big director.
On October 18, the box office of "The Beginning" exceeded one billion.
This is the ninth domestic film with a box office of more than one billion, and it is also the third film of Xu Nan with a box office of more than one billion.
Although this result had been expected for a long time, insiders were silent.
"Xu Nan is really perverted."
"He's not even thirty years old."
"Not surprisingly, he is likely to become a dominant-level presence in the entertainment industry."
"The only thing that can hinder Xu Nan now is probably time."
"Curious where he can go."
Xu Nan was the first person in the entertainment industry to talk about his achievements before, but because of the controversy over his debut shooting copycat porcelain pieces, Xu Nan has always been faintly rejected.
But the high-scoring movie "The Beginning" exceeded one billion, which made Xu Nan's last shortcoming make up, and at the same time made him a hot presence in the circle.
Countless stars flocked to contact Xu Nan to try to be part of his next film.
