Chapter 268: Intense Summer File

After Su Zhe finished the college entrance examination and ran many screenings, the students basically had summer vacation.

This also indicates the arrival of summer vacation.

This is one of the hottest schedules of the year, and it is a battleground for both movies and TV series.

Even the finals, the Olympics, the World Cup and other sports events of the MLS like to be held at this time.

It can be seen how fierce the competition is.

From the perspective of movies, if you don't have confidence in yourself, don't come to join in the fun and be cannon fodder, honestly choose an unpopular schedule, maybe you can rely on no competitors and mix more box office.

But the best schedule for youth films is the summer schedule, and Su Zhe can't postpone it to other schedules in order to escape competition.

But the trouble is that he only started filming "The Secret" in April, and many movie theaters have already scheduled summer films, and he is a temporary stopper.

Fortunately, the quality of the movies made by Guangying himself is not high, and he is cannon fodder in the summer file, so he can move the film schedule to "The Secret".

Even so, they can only guarantee 20% of the film schedule at most.

second in the same period, lower than "Youth Era", which was released on the same day.

This is also a youth film, starring Su Zhe's acquaintances, Ye Zehong and Zhou Jiamin.

Both of them have no fewer fans than Su Zhe, and they have both proven themselves, the box office is guaranteed, and even the movie genre is the same as "Secret", which is a youth film.

Reflected in the number of pre-sales, it has exceeded 8 million people, ranking first in the summer file, after all, traffic stars have not lost in this regard.

So under the judgment of the major theaters, they are still more optimistic about "Youth Era", so they gave 28% of the film schedule.

But with the screening of "The Secret", word of mouth came out, and the popularity became more and more popular.

Before the release, the total number of pre-sales even exceeded 10 million!

The theater chain immediately made changes and raised "Secret" to the first place-

More than 120,000 performances on the first day, 32% of the films are scheduled!

Correspondingly, the film schedules of competitors in the same period have dropped a little, and "Youth Era" has also decreased to 25%.

In fact, compared to other movies, it didn't lose much of the schedule, but from the first to the second, the fans of Ye Zehong and Zhou Jiamin were fried.

In fact, normal audiences rarely watch these data, as long as the movie they want to watch can buy tickets, who cares how many it ranks?

But fans really cared, and immediately felt that their brother (sister) was wronged, and angrily scolded on the Internet:

[Some fans can really blow it, it's just a youth film, and it's about to win the actor and queen! ] 】

[Someone is too good at marketing, I didn't understand why he took the college entrance examination before, it seems that it is for the sake of the layout. 】

[Is SZ a serious movie? Find a bunch of newcomers, sign all in your own company, or concentrate on being the boss! 】

There is no need for sugarcane to refute this, and many viewers who have watched the screening spontaneously tried to defend themselves on the Internet.

But arguing online is useless, never try to convince someone through a network cable.

In the end, it depends on the results.

On July 8th, the battle for summer files kicked off, and the smoke of gunpowder began with the two youth films "The Secret That Can't Be Said" and "Youth Era".

In fact, the two movies are not big productions, "Youth" is more than 300 million, and "Secret" is less than 200 million (including Su Zhe's 100 million salary to himself), which can only be regarded as a medium-sized production.

β€”β€”

Liu Zihan's high school entrance examination is over, but it is not yet time for the results to be released, which is the most relaxing day.

Early in the morning, she couldn't wait to take her best friend to the cinema to support her Uncle Su.

The girlfriend yawned and complained with a sleepy face:

"Why do we wake up so early during the summer holidays? In the evening, it is so comfortable to go to the mall, finish eating, and watch a movie! Wasn't it always like this before? ”

"But I want to see Uncle Su's movie for the first time! If my mom hadn't let me, I'd have gone to the midnight show last night. ”

Liu Zihan clasped his hands together with anticipation on his face.

My girlfriend couldn't help him, so she took out her mobile phone and called a taxi.

Liu Zihan got into the taxi, suddenly laughed twice, couldn't help but hold his cheeks, and said with emotion:

"I don't know what Uncle Su is doing? He's so good, he must be writing songs or scripts. ”

My best friend complained: "Normal people should be sleeping." ”

Liu Zihan looked confident: "But he is Uncle Su!" ”

Su Zhe at this time:

Zz(:3[__]≑】

Menghao: "The quilt is a little short, kick it ......"

Zz(:3<:[__]】

When Su Zhe was fighting with the quilt covering the wrong direction, two "abnormal" people came to the cinema in the mall early in the morning and went directly to the top cinema through the 24-hour elevator.

At this time, the mall has not even opened, and the girlfriend is on the top floor, watching the mall employees downstairs pack up the goods, and feel more and more sick.

No, it's Liu Zihan's illness - the disease of fanatical fans.

For girlfriends, if you have to get up early as a fan, no matter how handsome a beautiful man is, she can't be a fan!

"Su Zhe, I hope you don't disappoint me for getting up early! If the movie isn't good, I'll just, I'll ...... Secretly hack you behind Zihan's back! ”

Liu Zihan watched the time on the side, didn't hear her best friend's words, and responded casually:

"Huh? What did you say? ”

"I'm talking about...... Buy a cup of coffee, I'm really sleepy. ”

Liu Zihan replied very honestly: "My mother won't let me drink it." ”

"My mother still doesn't let me chase stars."

"But she authorized me to chase Uncle Su! However, she regretted it a little recently, worried that he didn't do well in the college entrance examination, so I learned from him. Hmph, Uncle Su must have done very well in the exam, and he can get into the 9th ...... 911! ”

When my girlfriend heard Liu Zihan's words, she scratched her head, and she always felt as if she wasn't called 911?

But this is not critical, the key is that even in the sugarcane, there are not many people who believe that Su Zhe can do well in the college entrance examination, and the unified discourse is "focusing on experience", which is "Su Zhe has only studied for half a month, and it is normal to not do well in the exam".

Fans who believe that Su Zhe can do well in the exam can be regarded as die-hard fans among die-hard fans.

This is also known as "brain-dead powder......

The two chatted until the movie started, and then they quieted down and concentrated on watching the movie.

With the sound of melodious music, a mysterious piece of parchment unfolded, and the word "secret" was written in flower characters.

The parchment quickly flashed [Crossing Rules], which were all details prepared for the audience who brushed it twice.

Liu Zihan and her best friend haven't read the spoilers, of course they haven't noticed it, they only see the credits that appear in turn on the parchment:

[Starring: Su Zhe] (first line, Ichiban)

[Starring: Gong Man] (second line, second time)

[Starring: Chen Zhanhong, You Mengli]

[Director: Sun Mei]

[Screenwriter: Su Zhe]

[Producer: Su Zhe]

In addition to the most important people, the rest of the cast and crew, even including Jia Xin's name, will appear at the end of the credits.

(Some dramas will really have the starring manager, assistant, etc. at the end of the credits.) οΌ‰

At the end of the parchment, a separate page appeared, with four large artistic wordsβ€”

[Su Zhe's works].

Generally speaking, only the director will sign [XX works], and it must be a director who is more famous or has a more prominent personal style.

Ordinary tool man directors are not worthy of writing like this.

But Su Zhe, as the leading actor and screenwriter, directly wrote [Su Zhe's works], but no one felt that something was wrong.

is like Aunt Qiong Yao and Mr. Jin Yong's drama, no matter who directed it or who acted it, it is said to be "Qiong Yao drama" and "Jin Yong drama".

Even a screenwriter with a bad reputation, everyone calls his work "XX drama".

In addition to screenwriters, actors also have examples -

Jackie Chan and Xing Ye's works, directors and screenwriters are changing, but what remains unchanged is that except for the early immature works, their personal characteristics are deeply imprinted.

Whose willpower is ultimately implemented in the work, this is whose work, and it is not completely related to position, fame, income, etc.

From this point of view, "The Secret That Can't Be Said" is obviously Su Zhe's work, there is no doubt about it.

Liu Zihan doesn't understand these twists and turns, but as a fan, when he saw the four big characters of [Su Zhe's works], he felt very proud, and said with a smile:

"Those idols fight all day long, dare to write like that? Is there such a treatment? ”

My best friend also agrees:

"They are paralyzed and acting, how dare they say that it is their own work?"

This is the fan, the feature film has not even started, and I start to be proud just by seeing the subtitles.

After the title, the feature film finally began-

"I've known you for a long time."

As the lines appear, the camera overlooks the beautiful campus, through the lively crowd, and onto the pretty path.

Sun Mei shot this long lens very stunningly, combining movement and static, smooth camera movement, and beautiful scene selection.

Of course, Liu Zihan doesn't understand the camera, but he can feel the beauty and envy:

"Wow! The campus is so beautiful! If only our high school could be so beautiful. ”

On the path, Su Zhe and You Mengli walked together, both of them wearing well-fitting black school uniforms (dress style), one handsome and the other beautiful.

Jingmei is more beautiful, and one of the target audiences who come to watch youth films is to watch handsome guys and beauties.

So seeing this scene, the entire cinema resounded with a soft exclamation:

"Wow!"

Listen to the wow.

Liu Zihan couldn't help but grab her best friend's arm, envious:

"It's so pretty! Why are our school uniforms so ugly? ”

The girlfriend thought about it:

"Our Shencheng school uniforms are quite famous in the country, no worse than in the movie, if you say ugly...... Maybe it's because people are ugly? ”

She felt that this scolded herself, and immediately changed her words:

"No, they're so good-looking. The appearance that can be counted in the whole of China, can we compare? ”

Stimulated by the eyeball ice cream, she was not sleepy anymore, and looked serious as if she had drunk coffee.

In this scene at the beginning, two important clues are buried:

One is Ye Xianglun's father.

The second is the old piano room related to the crossing, which will be demolished after the graduation ceremony.

It's just that all the viewers who watched it for the first time were only addicted to the beauty of Su Zhe and You Mengli, and only captured the information of "Ye Xianglun's transfer".

But these details will remain in their memories until the final reversal, which will make them suddenly realize.

Ye Xianglun was intrigued by Qingyi's words, went to the old piano room alone, and heard a melodious piano sound (Lu Xiaoyu's first time through the playing of "The Secret").

He followed the sound to the old piano room, met a girl, and asked:

"Did you play it just now?"

"It's not." The girl said deliberately.

Ye Xianglun looked around, but didn't find anyone else, revealing stupid doubts.

The girl immediately laughed and said playfully:

"Yes!"

"Oh, it's pretty good." Ye Xianglun bowed his head slightly and immediately fled.

Although Liu Zihan didn't watch the spoilers, she also knew that the girl was Lu Xiaoyu played by Gong Man, who was the heroine of this movie.

She couldn't help but judge in her heart:

"It's cute, but it's not as pretty as You Mengli. Is it so ordinary to meet for the first time? ”

If it is replaced by an inferior youth film, the first meeting of the male and female protagonists will definitely have to increase the filter in slow motion, and then rotate the lens, I can't wait to announce it to all audiences:

"Look! It was love at first sight! ”

But the movie texture of "Secret" is far beyond the average youth film, and the meeting between the two seems to be very ordinary, but it buries a lot of information.

Immediately afterwards, Ye Xianglun was in class, and Lu Xiaoyu walked into the classroom, "I'm sorry, I'm late", bowed slightly and sat in the last row.

At this time, because of the special crossing principle of the piano music of "Secret", only Ye Xianglun could see and hear Lu Xiaoyu, and only he couldn't help but turn his head to look at Lu Xiaoyu.

He kept turning his head to anger the teacher on the podium, and reprimanded him very unceremoniously:

"What's there to see? Be attentive in class! ”

Ye Xianglun turned his head a little embarrassed.

The camera switched, and in the focus, Lu Xiaoyu smiled a little shy and a little proud.

Gong Man's acting skills are easy to use to act in youth films, and the audience can immediately see that this is the expression of a girl being watched by a boy who has some affections.

They didn't notice that Qing Yi was sitting in front of Lu Xiaoyu, and she also showed a shy and smug smile where the camera was in focus.

After class, Ye Xianglun chased after Lu Xiaoyu and asked her what the name of the piano music she played in the piano room was.

This is related to the secret of crossing, Lu Xiaoyu did not reveal it easily, and naughtily approached his ear and told him:

"It's a secret that can't be told."

This is a bit ambiguous in the eyes of the audience, but in fact, it is because Lu Xiaoyu knows that only Ye Xianglun can see him, and he doesn't want him to talk to himself in the eyes of others, so he deliberately whispers to him.

Lu Xiaoyu's gentleness in the details, the audience can't notice it for the first time.

Ye Xianglun didn't know either, looked at the back of Lu Xiaoyu leaving, and shouted loudly:

"What's your name?"

In front of him, Qingyi turned her head with a hint of pride in her expression:

"Didn't I tell you?"

Here is still a foreshadowing that others can't see Lu Xiaoyu, but the audience only thinks it's just a misunderstanding.

Ye Xianglun also thought it was a misunderstanding, and just wanted to explain, the teacher came over again and reprimanded him:

"I hear your voice from afar. This is a school, not a place for you to pick up girls. ”

Ye Xianglun was even more embarrassed.

Seeing this, Liu Zihan couldn't help laughing:

"It's too real! Did Uncle Su also be reprimanded by the teacher when he was in school? ”

The best friend thought about it and complained:

"When he was in junior high school, he probably didn't need to pick up girls, right? If he goes to school with us, the wild chicks won't eat him? ”

"Go to school together?" Liu Zihan didn't know what he was thinking, and his face was red.

Girlfriends: ......

You're breaking the law! No, it's Su Zhe who broke the law! It's not right, it's Liu Zihan unilaterally, it doesn't seem to have anything to do with Su Zhe......

She's a bit of a mess.

A girl's feelings are always poetry, no matter what Liu Zihan is thinking, it's just a fantasy.

She didn't expect it to come true, she just hoped that this fantasy would make her better.

The film continues.

The light rain came suddenly, Ye Xianglun and Lu Xiaoyu did not bring umbrellas, so they could only hide from the rain together.

After the rain stopped, Ye Xianglun rode home with Lu Xiaoyu and asked her name again.

"My name is Lu Xiaoyu."

"My name is Ye Xianglun."

In fact, this is the first time their names appear in the film.
