Sunday night, February 9th.

Countless media outlets have been waiting until late at night, waiting for the box office to come out on a new day.

A portal, several editors who were waiting, waited boredly.

"Hey, I'm so bored after eating another bucket of instant noodles, so I'll send the news out first. ”

"Die, we're not a three-media person, and we're a bit of a discipline. ”

"It's a small thing, what if the box office is a little worse, wait. ”

"Super is definitely super, "I Am Legend" box office is so stable, my odds of winning Mark Six tomorrow are greater than the probability that "I Am Legend" will not break the record tomorrow. ”

"That is, the probability of you winning the Mark Six lottery is zero. ”

"Alas, I didn't expect Li Qian to even surpass "Tangshan Earthquake", before we praised "If You Are Honest Do Not Disturb 2", I don't know how much money the editor-in-chief charged. ”

"It's like you're confiscating the money. ”

"Uh..."

"I feel that Li Qian has been in the industry for a long time, and the first movie is only a little over 100 million, which is 600 million, and it is almost 700 million. ”

"What is the meaning of only a little more than 100 million, at that time 100 million was already awesome. ”

"It didn't take long, it's only been four years, four movies in four years, but Li Qian's rise is too fast. ”

"From 100 million to 6 or 700 million in four years, at this rate, maybe in four or five years, it will be able to break the record of "Avatar". ”

"Avatar? can't it, this film is too good!"

"Who said it, this Li Qian is so young, the speed of his rise is too outrageous, I decided, I don't have to think about it in the future, just blow Li Qian and his films brainlessly. ”

"Brainless blowing Li Qian, at least you don't have to slap your face. ”

......

This year's Chinese New Year, although "Let the Bullets Fly" was released first, the most fierce blow is "If You Are Honest Do Not Disturb 2".

"Let the Bullets Fly" is not called blowing, it deserves a piece of praise, and Yinghuang doesn't have much energy in the mainland, otherwise he wouldn't have come to the back, facing "I Am a Legend" and "If You Are Honest Do Not Disturb 2", when the reputation and trend are so strong, the film schedule has declined rapidly.

The publicity and film scheduling can't keep up.

"If You Are the Truth, Do Not Disturb 2" is different, so much money and resources, several major portals, several mainstream forums, and post bars, almost all of them have been bought.

But after blowing for three days, he was slapped in the face.

Although for the media and various websites, the discipline and face are useless, but it is much better to make money standing than lying down, who wants to be scolded.

Li Qian has four movies in four years, until this time he broke the record, and fools know that it is okay to blow him without a brain.

Of course, if someone else gives more money, that's another story.

......

At twelve o'clock, various media also learned about yesterday's box office from different channels, and the news that had been prepared for a long time was sent to all corners of the Internet one by one.

"Eighteen days after its release, it earned 677 million, and "I Am Legend" surpassed "Tangshan Earthquake" and set a new box office record in the history of Chinese films!"

"The legend of "I Am Legend" continues, winning the championship strongly, and Li Qian has reached the top of the box office champion in Chinese film history!"

"Chinese films have ushered in the biggest changes in the past ten years, the fifth generation of directors have collapsed one after another, and the new generation of directors led by Li Qian has opened a new chapter in Chinese films!"

"At the beginning of the twentieth century, Zhang Yimou's "Hero" kicked off the rise of domestic commercial films, and in the first year of the second decade of the twentieth century, Li Qian started his legendary directorial career with "I Am a Legend"!"

"Zhang Yimou is old, Cheng Kai is exhausted, Ma Xiaogang is only interested in making money, and the future of Chinese films is Li Qian and other young directors. ”

"100 million, 200 million, 400 million, 600 million, one footprint a year, we have reason to believe that in the next three or four years, Li Qian will be able to surpass the box office record of "Avatar", and the record of the domestic film market will still be taken back by domestic films!"

......

surpassed "Tangshan Earthquake" and set a new record, and all the media invariably blew Li Qian into the sky.

However, 677 million in 18 days, at the age of 27, is enough to be worthy of any praise!

Moreover, it is to suppress all the directors of the older generation to reach the top.

For ordinary audiences, it is also a joy that the movies they like and approve of have broken records, which means that there are many people who have the same preferences as themselves.

Moreover, as far as China is concerned, whether it is the media or the audience's cognition, the awards are far inferior to the box office.

For Austrian directors, Venice is the first choice, Cannes Berlin is the second choice, and for Asian and European directors, Cannes is a higher weight than Venice and Berlin Film Festivals.

Now in China, unless it is the Oscar and the Palme d'Or, even the Golden Bear and the Golden Lion are not as influential as the current record of 677 million.

took Golden Bear's "Tuya's Marriage", and Jia Zhangke took Golden Lion's "The Good Man of the Three Gorges", except in niche circles, there were no waves on the news at all.

The commercialization of movies has not been long ago, and the box office is far more important than winning an award.

For ordinary audiences, they may not have seen a movie that has won an international award, but naturally they can see it in the entertainment news every day, and the movies and directors that everyone around them has seen and discussed can make them identify with it.

"Li Qian is awesome, he finally broke the record!"

"It's almost 700 million in 18 days, much faster than "Tangshan Earthquake", 800 million should be no problem, maybe 1 billion next year. ”

"I originally thought it was similar to "The Great Earthquake" and "Let the Bullets Fly", but who knew it would be so fierce. ”

"The key is not only that the box office is high, but also that the connotation is much stronger than most pretending literary films. ”

"I declare that I will be a big fan of Li Qian from now on, as long as Li Qian's movies are watched, no matter what genre!"

"I have long been a fan of Li Qian's brain, and it can be seen from these four movies that Li Qian will definitely be a director like Spielberg in the future!"

"Let's talk about Li Qian's entry into the industry in 07, it's only been four years since I was full, and I feel like I've watched more than ten of his movies. ”

"Two online universities, four movies, and the sequel to "Jaws", these are seven, and there are several movies that have been produced. ”

"The high yield is like a sow, and in the past few years, I have basically watched Li Qian's movies. ”

In the past four years, it is not too much to say that Li Qian has supported half of the sky of domestic films alone, "Frequency of Life and Death", "Moon", "Perfect World", "I Am a Legend", "127 Hours", "Living Together in Time and Space", "People in Embarrassment", "PlayerUnknown's Battlegrounds", "Warm Inside the Light" These movies are either made by him, or they are all related to him, I feel that these are the movies I can watch in the past few years. ”

"Half of the film industry, it's not too much to say that Li Banbi. ”

"Is the nickname of the fast gunner outdated, and he has changed his name to Li Banbi?"

"I still like fast gunners, I hope Li Qian is getting faster and faster, hehe. ”

......

"Li Banbi?"

Li Qian thinks this title is good, at least it is much better than the old call him fast gunner.

However, he likes it, and the vast majority of people in the industry don't like it anymore.

Huayang, Bernard, Guangxi, Pony... And so on all large and medium-sized companies, do not like this name.

Not to mention one person, even if any company occupies half of the industry, everyone does not want to see it.

However, he is powerless to refute it, in the past three years, especially in 2010, starting from the 200 million box office of "People in Embarrassment" during the Spring Festival, "PlayerUnknown's Battlegrounds" with nearly 300 million, "Warm Withinlight" with 360 million, plus "I Am Legend" with 677 million, Li Qian alone swept away more than 1.5 billion box office!

1.5 billion, Huayang Media's market value is a little more than 10 billion, and the profit in a year is not as much as the 1.5 billion box office.

It is equivalent to Li Qian alone, earning a year's profit of Huayang Media, the first private film and television company in China.

and its horror!

Not only film and television companies, but all the big directors in the industry don't want any director to have such a title.

He Li Qian is half of the film industry, but what about the others, which means that all the other directors are not as good as one Li Qian?

"Half of the shit!"

Ma Xiaogang, who was directly humiliated by Li Qian during the Chinese New Year, scolded in private, he never saw others praise him so much during "Tangshan Earthquake", and he was on a mission to Li Qian.

At this time, Ma Xiaogang really wanted to pull the collar of the person who said this sentence and ask him, "No Thieves in the World" is not a classic?

"The Assembly" is not a classic?

"Party A and Party B" is not a classic?

"Mobile Phone" is not a classic?

......

And Jiang Wen, who had just broken the box office of 600 million yuan, was standing and earning money, and when he saw this statement on the Internet, although there was no obvious change in his expression, his eyes were still full of dissatisfaction.

Even Zhang Yimou and Cheng Kaige can't let him look high, let alone a young man, no matter how high the box office sells.

Brother Cheng Kai has experienced another tepid "Zhao's Orphan", and he has not recovered since "Wuji".

Although I don't think my film is so bad, I am questioned every year, and I listen to the criticism from the outside every day, how can I be indifferent.

However, I can only cheer myself up secretly from the bottom of my heart.

And Zhang Yimou, the national teacher in the domestic film industry and the first director in China, who is giving special training to the actresses of the new film, just sighed.

"The back waves of the Yangtze River push the front waves. ”

sighed at Li Qian's ability and talent, but Zhang Yimou was not willing to be the front wave that was slapped to death on the beach by the back waves.

The front waves are hitting the beach, but you can still retreat into the sea and toss with the back waves for a while!
