Chapter 565: Expelled from the Directors Guild
May 29th.
The box office of the movie "The Legend of Sword and Fairy" officially exceeded one billion.
At this time, the box office potential of the movie is basically exhausted, and there is more than a day left, and it will make a box office of one or two hundred million after breaking the sky, and it is impossible to increase it much.
But even so, the box office of the movie exceeded one billion, which still caused a lot of waves in the circle.
"Damn, the box office of "The Legend of Sword and Fairy" has really broken one billion."
"Isn't that something that was expected for a long time?"
"But it's still very unpleasant."
"Why do we work hard and make movies seriously, but the box office can't reach one billion, and it's even difficult to recover the cost, why Xu Nan can break one billion at the box office if he makes a bad movie casually, the world is too unfair."
"I can only say that the audience is sick, and we, the directors, repay the audience with sincerity, but they support it at all, and would rather watch the bad movies made by Xu Nan casually."
"That's right, it's all to blame the audience for being too spicy."
"Another reason is that Xu Nan is too cunning, obviously the reputation of the movie has collapsed, and he was stunned to make a bloody case caused by a movie, and he had to buy tickets to watch the game on the spot, and he also had to buy tickets to watch the live broadcast, and then he brought up the box office."
"In the past few days, a tiger has challenged Xu Nan and also assisted this movie."
"Speaking of which, Xu Nan is still too cunning."
"But it's still good."
Industry insiders are extremely unhappy.
Although the highest box office record has now exceeded three billion.
Although there are more than a dozen movies with a billion box office, it is not a big deal for a movie to break one billion at the box office.
Although Xu Nan has long had similar records, this incident is just another breakthrough for Xu Nan.
But many people in the industry just can't cross that hurdle.
When many people first started making movies, they accepted the concept of making movies seriously, making movies well, and moving the audience with sincerity, and the audience will repay you with sincerity.
But as a result, a Xu Nan who did not play cards according to common sense suddenly jumped out, specializing in abduction.
The most absolutely absolute.
But the audience really ate his set, and frantically sent money to Xu Nan.
This makes those who are dedicated to making good movies how not to be angry.
Xu Nan's existence is a mockery of these people, which is equivalent to reminding them all the time that they are all stupid.
It's like if you want to pursue a goddess, in order to pursue the goddess, you bring her breakfast every day and give her all kinds of expensive gifts, which can be said to be afraid of melting in your mouth and afraid of falling in the palm of your hand.
As a result, a gangster suddenly ran over, didn't do anything, and kissed the goddess directly, and the most amazing thing is that the goddess was really with the gangster.
It seems like your passion is like a joke.
Who can bear it?
I can't bear it at all.
But now it's different from the past, Xu Nan's foundation has been established, and his status in the circle is very unusual.
Therefore, although everyone was unhappy with Xu Nan and distorted, they still didn't dare to say anything.
Then.
Xu Nan posted a Weibo.
"I have said a long time ago, "The Legend of Sword and Fairy" is not a bad movie, if the movie is a bad movie, why is the box office of the movie so high."
"So, the movie is not a bad movie, you don't think it's good, it means that you don't know how to appreciate it, beauty is diverse, and the evaluation criteria of movies are also diverse, which is not defined, if you think my movie is not good-looking audiences, I suggest you seriously reflect on whether you are too narrow."
After this Weibo was sent, a large group of Xu Nan's fans came to hear the news.
"That's right, the movie isn't bad."
"The box office is the most intuitive proof, if you say movie garbage, then why is the box office of the movie so high."
"The evaluation criteria for films should be diverse, and they must not be decided by a few people."
"No matter what you say, I think this movie is good anyway."
"The audience likes it, you don't like it, you're old."
A large group of Xu Nan's fans forwarded it with their own comments, which caused a lot of waves.
When the movie "The Legend of Sword and Fairy" was first released, the reputation was as black as coal.
But nearly a month has passed, and the reputation of this movie has begun to flip, and even the Douban score has increased to 5.6 points, and it is possible to pass.
The reason is simple.
Those viewers who don't like this movie from the bottom of their hearts will be tired after a long time, and they won't have time to hack this movie.
The audience who came to watch this movie knew that this movie was not very good, so they hesitated to buy tickets to watch this movie, and found that it was okay, it was funny, and the rating should not be so low.
Also, there are some people with unique tastes who just like this type of movie.
We have to admit that aesthetics are diverse, and there are always some people who like things that are not very recognized by the public, such as stinky tofu, such as canned herring.
And this kind of niche stuff often has a high reputation.
Thereupon.
Combining various factors, the reputation of "The Legend of Sword and Fairy" slowly began to flip.
But for some people, the flip of the movie's word-of-mouth is absolutely unacceptable.
In particular, some old-fashioned people with old-fashioned ideas cannot accept this kind of reversal of the case.
Because it would appear that they are wrong and that what they insist on is meaningless.
The famous director Zhang Yange posted a Weibo.
His Weibo is very simple: "No matter how Xu Nan quibbles, the movie "The Legend of Sword and Fairy" is always a bad movie. ”
"Facts are facts, and they cannot be erased."
Soon, the tweet was retweeted by a large number of conservative older generations.
The famous director Chen Pengfei reposted Zhang Yange's Weibo and left a comment: "The aesthetics of movies are diverse, but beauty is beauty, and rotten is rotten, and it can't be reversed by quibbles." ”
Liu Dongdong also reposted this Weibo: "As we all know, the box office of a movie has never been directly related to the quality of a movie, and there is no example of a bad movie achieving a high box office in history, so Xu Nan's reason that the box office of "The Legend of Sword and Fairy" broke one billion is untenable. ”
But it's a pity that after the Weibo of these older generation filmmakers was posted, they were immediately refuted by Xu Nan's fans.
"Every time I say that Xu Nan's movie is not a bad movie, then you make a good movie."
"I'll just ask you, why should you evaluate the quality of the movie, am I not qualified as an audience to say whether the movie is good or bad? In the end, you have the final say on the quality of the movie, or we the audience have the final say. ”
"You were knocked down by Xu Nan in the ring, you are embarrassed to say it."
"Liu Dongdong, you said that the movie is not a bad movie, then it's good, you hit Xu Nan head-on."
"On weekdays, I look down on Xu Nan and say that other people's movies are not good, but people can really have a high box office when they make movies, and when you look down on Xu Nan, you will trouble and make a few high-box office movies."
"Retire as soon as you're old, especially some directors, it's embarrassing to shoot a film?"
Xu Nan has a lot of fans and strong combat effectiveness, and he quickly suppressed these older generation directors.
No way, more fans is amazing.
On the Internet, whoever has the loudest voice makes sense.
Traffic stars obviously don't have any works, but they rely on traffic to go straight to the front line, just because they have many fans.
Xu Nan is not the same as those traffic, he has works, status, and capital.
These older generation of filmmakers have gradually failed to keep up with the times, and it is normal to be suppressed.
However, this situation has been encountered by public figures to a greater or lesser extent, and they will not be angry.
At most, it's a sigh of the declining world or something.
However, there is one person who can't stand it.
This person is director Chen Pengfei.
I thought that he made a movie "Taoist Goes Down the Mountain", but the reputation was not as good as the copycat porcelain film "Taoist Bian Mountain" of Summit Film and Television.
Because of this, he became a laughing stock in the circle and was ridiculed for a long time.
There is no shame in being touched.
But the score is not as good as touching the porcelain piece in the cottage, which is very embarrassing.
Now some people ridicule him for making movies that are not as good as one another, and Chen Pengfei broke the defense in an instant.
In the past few years, he has not made a good movie for a long time, and the box office reputation has hit the streets.
Lies don't hurt people, the truth hurts.
Xu Nan's fans actually told the truth, which was too deceitful.
The more Chen Pengfei thought about it, the more angry he became, and decided to take revenge on Xu Nan once.
Directors Guild.
At a meeting.
As the president, Chen Pengfei made a proposal.
"As a director, Xu Nan has repeatedly broken through the lower limit of the industry, causing extremely bad impacts."
"I suggest that he be expelled from the Directors Guild and the industry atmosphere should be eliminated."
The participants looked at each other and nodded.
"I agree."
"I agree."
"I agree."
"Yes."
"It's really necessary to be upright, and you can't let a rat poop spoil a pot of porridge."
The directors association is dominated by the older generation of filmmakers, and they are very unaccustomed to Xu Nan.
In addition, Chen Pengfei is the chairman and has a good relationship with them.
For a variety of reasons.
Soon.
The proposal to expel Xu Nan from the Directors Guild was passed.
Soon, the Directors Guild issued an official statement.
"Due to the member Xu Nan's repeated violations of the association's regulations, bad attitude, and refusal to correct, the association officially announced that Xu Nan was expelled from his membership, and from this moment on, Xu Nan is no longer a member of the Directors Association, as you know."
This news quickly caused a huge response.
"Xu Nan was expelled from the Directors Association?"
"Well done, this cancer should be shot."
"Evil has evil retribution."
"Then he won't be able to make movies in the future."
"Let me explain to you personally, what kind of organization is the Directors Guild, and whether Xu Nan can still make movies."
"Don't, Xu Nan is my favorite director, don't fire him."
"What the hell did he break?"
"Heh, this is the domestic atmosphere, you can't do anything out of the ordinary."
"So Xu Nan will be able to make movies in the future."
"I don't know."
"It doesn't matter if you can't make movies, now that Xu Nan is the boss, you can retire and enjoy life."
"But I still want to see his movies because it's fun."
