In recent years, Li Jingkun's fame has reached an unprecedented height, and the appearance of many high-quality movies has made his image very good in the eyes of the public.

Therefore, as long as his films appear, they are generally well received; Even if there were unsatisfactory aspects of "The Witch" before, everyone was quite tolerant.

But in the last year or two, especially from "Notes on Tomb Robbery" a while ago

"Bad tickets and high box office" have caused more and more netizens to gradually sober up and don't want to continue to be the wronged boss of bad movies, so many people have begun to hate traffic blockbusters and IP blockbusters that are just bad money.

This movie review appeared in this situation, and then it also appeared very conspicuous among the many praises, and it got a lot of traffic and clicks for a while.

Regarding this film review, there are both people who are for and against it, and even some people are a little noisy.

The supporters said that this is a commercial film in itself, what you want is entertainment and relaxation, why do you want so much!

Those who oppose it say that Li Jingkun, as a great director, should pursue something, and should not keep making such brainless commercial films!

······ Big brother, you were the one who scolded people when filming "Hummingbird" and "Night and Day", right?

Regarding these evaluations, Li Jingkun is naturally noncommittal. Of course, he hates the behavior of just bad money, but "Little People" will never come to this point, right?

It is estimated that there have been too many good things about him in recent years, and this time it is rare to have a bad review, which is quite eye-catching.

Therefore, the traffic and attention are not small, resulting in the audience asking him this question during the roadshow - it is also because Li Jingkun has not responded to these comments publicly, so some people can only ask him in person.

When these words were asked in the theater, the happy atmosphere was a little frozen, I didn't expect so many fans to have a little black in them?

You kid laughs at my brother, don't you? I won't give you eggs in the future······ To this day, Li Jingkun is naturally not frightened by one or two questions, and the other party is actually not so aggressive, he just asked this question, so he said: "Of course, I am also disgusted with the works of 'bad movies and high box office', which has always been the case, so I have always pursued high-quality movies and TV series." But classifying "Little People" as a 'bad movie with a high box office' is a bit too much, right? Li Jingkun behaved calmly and gently, and the fans were relieved; A lot of people laughed because of his first sentence - it was meant to be, if this movie belongs

"Bad movies", so how many movies have to be swept into the garbage?

"Yes, in the past two or three years, "Little People" may be one of my several works with a poor rating, but at present, it has also received a score of 7.8 on the most stringent film review website in China, no matter how good this score is, it will not be classified as a bad movie, right?" Li Jingkun continued to ask rhetorically, and the host invited by the theater also interjected in a timely manner: "Haha, it may be because everyone has higher requirements for you." Li Jingkun said: "So the first point, our movie is definitely not a bad movie; If 7 is the passing mark, it is also more than that! I admit that there are definitely bugs, but this is a commercial action movie, and I am afraid that no director can do it at the moment without any flaws. I think it also belongs to the ranks of excellent works in commercial action movies. Second, I think that for the birth of a work, when the director wants to make a movie, he must first like it, he must be able to convince himself, he must be able to pass the level in his heart, and it is enough to pass it. If this work is a story and subject matter that he likes very much, then he can happily shoot it, and try to make the majority of the audience happy, so that investors do not lose money, then I think he has done a good job. The third point is that the host just said that it may be that everyone is more demanding of me; I admit it, but I don't want to be kidnapped too much; I'm sure I'm also pursuing some of the work like most directors, but occasionally I want to make some of my own. Cool works. And pure action movies are also one of my dreams all along, and now that I've made two action movies in a row, I really feel quite good. Cool! Fourth, many people say that the last two movies have been made too much to appeal to the Omi audience······ This is quite speechless, all the actors of "The Witch" are actors from our country, and the box office in Omi is not high, where is it catered to? Most of the people in "Little People" are Omi actors, but this is also a personal attempt by me to see if I can go to other countries to make money. Good. Many people say that I am very heroic and very good in shooting, but isn't this 'mastering skills to control razing'? Is it okay to let people from other countries come to us to make money, but we can't use movies to make their own money? Li Jingkun said a lot, but they were all very pertinent.

Later, he was still unsatisfied and said that he would lean on

"Martial arts films" or

"National Suffering Films" are even more unreliable to make other people's money; Also, he said that in addition to making action movies, he also wanted to make their own gunfight movies and sci-fi films, etc.

This series of words attracted cheers and applause from fans, and I felt inexplicably surprised and looking forward to it - I didn't expect to stab my idol and get a lot of unexpected answers and gains.

We really have some bold ideas, and we don't know if we should talk about it············· Li Jingkun's answer at the roadshow was posted on the Internet, which can be regarded as a reply to the recent criticism of "Little People".

His fans are naturally very understanding and supportive of this, but of course there are still many people who are black for the sake of black.

No one can wake up a person who is pretending to be asleep! It's just that things are a little unexpected again, because 10 days after the release, an incident happened in China, which made a large number of little sunspots collectively lose their voices······ 10 days after the movie was released, a message about domestic movies was suddenly broadcast on Yang Ma's news channel - to be sure, it was about Li Jingkun and Brother Long's new movie "Little People".

The news channel devoted a few minutes to reporting on the popularity and achievements of "Little People" around the world, fully affirming the excellent achievements of domestic filmmakers in recent years; Encourage and support domestic films to actively go out while ensuring quality and local taste······ This is not the first time that Li Jingkun's movie has been on the news channel, the first time was when "Exploration of Chinatown" and "Journey to the West" fought in the ring, and it was also reported for a few minutes at the time.

But now only the movie "Little People" is in the news, and it has been reported for a few minutes!

In other words, this time, it was the official TV station that directly advertised for free, directly affirming its achievements and influence in front of more than a billion people across the country!

Officials think it's done a great job and gives it a face, so what else do others have to say?

If it's a bad movie, is it possible to be reported like this?······ The TV station gave "Little People" a few minutes of content, showing the scene of many viewers queuing up outside the cinema to buy tickets, and not only filmed in domestic theaters, but also led to several other countries, reporting a lot of foreign brothers and sisters buying tickets; At the same time, some movie theater owners and audiences were allowed to express their opinions.

Many viewers said that the movie was very good, very exciting, and they liked it very much after watching it; Cinema employees and owners said that the film had a high attendance rate, and tickets for the movie were hard to come by, and there were often long queues in the first few days of its release······· Finally, the TV station also revealed the achievements of the film so far.

Today, 10 days later, the domestic box office of "Little People" has exceeded 1.352 billion soft girls, and overseas, including Beimi's total box office has reached 76.8 million meters.

In other words, 10 days after its release, the total box office of this movie has exceeded 1.8 billion, and it is basically a sure thing that the follow-up will exceed 2 billion soft girls; At the same time, there is a high probability that the total global box office can exceed the 2.39 billion of "The Witch".

Let's not talk about the domestic ones, the overall results are only a little more than those of "The Witch", but the overseas side has surpassed them in an all-round way!

After the release of "The Witch", the total overseas box office was 350 million, but now that it has only been released for 10 days, the overseas box office of "Little People" has already exceeded this number - among them, the Omi box office has contributed a lot!

So that's why they want to get Omi to be released, and they want to get a global release - no matter what, these places of Omi are really big box office!

One of the reasons why domestic filmmakers have always wanted to conquer that land is naturally because that piece can make a lot of money, which is the same reason that they have always come to China to make money.

Huaxia is also a big ticket warehouse!······ When the film has been officially certified and there are many supporters, the attendance rate and box office decline of "Little People" are within the normal range.

On the 25th, Liu Tianxian's birthday arrived. This year's birthday was a bit more lively, and on the evening of the 24th, many girls were called to gather and have dinner at Li Jingkun's villa.

The girls who came this time were Zhao Xiaodao, Shu Sing, Bu Guanjin, Bai Lu and Chen Yao, and the boys were called by Li Jingkun, who was afraid that it would be too monotonous, so they called Wang Yang, Guo Junli and Zhu Yinlong.

After dinner that night, everyone sat in the courtyard and chatted while blowing the wind. Because "Little People" is being screened, it is natural to talk about this movie; then is "Take My Brother Away" that Wang Yang and Guo Junli are preparing; Zhao Xiaodao's "The Biography of Chu Qiao" naturally also talked about it.

Although "Take My Brother Away" is a work of Longqi Film and Television, there is no way to use his own artists this time, because the protagonists of the movie are relatively young, so this time they have begun to use post-00s actors as the protagonists.

The drama "The Legend of Chu Qiao" has not yet been completed, but the filming time is as long as 5 months, so it is naturally impossible not to give a break.

Therefore, Zhao Xiaodao had arranged for a day or two on Liu Tianxian's birthday. But of course, they don't just talk about work, anyway, when it's a break, they naturally talk about everything.

It's about life, it's about feelings, it's about work. Zhao Xiaodao said that on Liu Tianxian's previous birthday, Li Jingkun gave her songs and movies, and now he has any special gifts?

After Liu Tianxian's "Wolf Warrior 2" was filmed, did she arrange a new work? Liu Tianxian said: "Actually, there are quite a lot of film projects in their company, and many of them are really good, but there are really few works that are suitable for me······" Zhao Xiaodao said: "Won't it? What about "Chinatown Detective 2"? What about Operation Red Sea? As far as I know, there are several projects, and none of them are suitable? ”

"The coffee position is not suitable, and it is okay to play it reluctantly, but most of them are male-dominated, and the female role is just a foil." Li Jingkun also nodded: "Movies that really feature women as the protagonists are too scarce, and high-quality ones are even more scarce." If you don't want to be just a vase or symbol in the movie of the big male lead, you can only choose a romance movie. ”

"But isn't your "The Witch" also good?"

"It's good, but you can't keep shooting the same type, right? Even if it's a sequel, you'll have to wait a year or two before you set up a project. And believe it or not, if this character were replaced with a male protagonist, it would look good? Maybe the box office is even higher. Everyone felt a little reasonable after listening to it, and some even nodded silently.

The popularity of works with male themes is relatively high, which is a fact and cannot be explained. Bai Lu said: "That's too unfair, isn't it? Li Jingkun said: "It's the same all over the world, isn't it the same on the Omi side?" There are also more male-dominated movies over there, and male-dominated movies are more popular - in fact, the situation in our country is better than that over there, because in our country, in recent years, the TV series of the big heroine have been more popular than men's, with better ratings and greater influence! This is also true, so many of them can't help but nod their heads.

Shu Sing said: "Then you mean to suggest that Sissi make a TV series?" Won't this be too bad for identity and coffee position? Li Jingkun said: "My suggestion is to make a movie if you have good film resources, and if you don't have good movie resources, you can choose to shoot a TV series first." And I will shoot it myself later, not necessarily. Zhao Xiaodao said: "Wow, you are a big director, and now you can even be said to be an international director, isn't it okay to shoot a TV series?" ”

"What's the matter, aren't more and more big directors and big-name actors going back to making TV series now? If you look at Omi's side, David Fincher, Martin Scorsese, Steven Soderbergh and Spielberg are all back, they all went back to directing TV series, will this be a loss of identity? The status is not the same as very high? Chen Yao also interjected: "Why is this happening?" Is it bad to make movies? Li Jingkun said: "It's not that it's bad to make a movie, but there can be many ways to express a story, and you don't need to stick to just one form of film." Of course, there are many reasons why big directors will run back to shoot TV series. ”
