Chapter 89 Scolding War (1) (4/5)
During this year's New Year holiday, Chen Mengxi did not make any arrangements for his opponents, and did not even do a rhythm smear!
There is no need to win, there is too much chance of winning.
Moreover, "1942" is indeed a good movie. Putting aside all levels, some people are willing to film "1942" and spend a lot of money, which is definitely a good thing.
Some people complain about historical themes used to make money...
In fact, it is right. Without commercial packaging, people will not be interested!
And it is also right for a big director to make such a movie - even if a young director wants to make it, some investors are willing to support it.
As for the failure of "1942" box office, the box office cannot tell the whole story!
Let’s be fair. “1942” has a box office of more than 300 million yuan. It’s amazing that such a theme can win a box office of more than 300 million yuan.
But it doesn’t mean that if you film "1942", you will be awesome and you can slap Chen Mengxi in the face!
This will be written later...
Next door, "The King's Feast" is also holding a premiere press conference...
Focus on tragic marketing:
Lu Chuan burst into tears on the spot: If you want to innovate, you have to pay the price - in order to film "The King's Feast", I borrowed a sum of 6 million yuan in the later period, and for this I mortgaged one of my own property.
‘I looked up a lot of documentary records and historical materials before filming The King’s Feast. I personally believe that all the history that has gone far away has more and more vivid facts hidden behind it. What I have to do is find out and present it on the camera.’
‘If "The King's Feast" has a bad box office, I might have to quit the movie industry…’
‘This circle is too cruel, and it has hit young directors too seriously. I have seen too many such phenomena. I just want to leave something for Chinese movies and leave some social significance… I want to make a movie that is useful to China’s present and future!’
Another person who wants to be a father...
...
On the 28th, four movies competed against each other...
"A Mirror to the End", "Youth Pi", "1942", "The King's Feast".
Someone complained online, "Either don't come or come together, don't choose so many blank periods, and have to squeeze together!"
Of course, this is just a small audience!
Most of the people who enter the theater still choose "One Scene to the End"...
The first day's results were released, "1942" has 21 million yuan in a single day, "Pi" has 16 million yuan, "The King's Feast" has 5.8 million yuan in the first day, and "One Scene to the End" still firmly occupy the single-day box office championship - 36 million!
The attendance rate was also the highest in the same period.
"1942" has a bad start!
Feng Xiaogang has always been a box office myth of the New Year holiday.
The first-day box office of works two years ago, "The Great Tangshan Earthquake" and "If You Are the One 2" were 36.2 million and 34.9 million respectively.
Many people hope that "1942" will break the first day record of "Walking with God"!
It's a long way to go, the former has exceeded 70 million on the first day...
In addition, the Douban reputation of "1942" is not very good...
There is no way, Feng Xiaogang's appearance as if he pretends to be a master is particularly annoying, and coupled with the Shubao effect...
Many people didn't watch movies and gave negative reviews directly:
"It's not that you can make a good movie if you have a profound theme!"
"It's really speechless. There is a group of so-called intellectuals in China who believe that it must reveal something and irony to be considered profound, but they lack the most basic philosophical literacy. "The Great White Jaws" have not been filmed yet, and they are all filming "Shintler's List" one by one?"
"Nothing except topicality..."
Of course, there are also positive reviews, and Douban score is 7.7!
...
In a cinema near home, Chen Mengxi accompanied Liu Yifei to watch "One Mirror to the End", and then followed her out of the screening room without saying a word...
No matter how good a movie you watch it dozens of times, it's just that!
Eating big meals every day will make you feel sick!
Otherwise, why would there be a saying that home flowers are worse than wild flowers?
"One Scene to the End", roughly edited version, streamlined version, three previews, and a premiere...
I was almost vomiting when I saw it!
After getting into the car, the young lady suddenly said, "I think I can also act that female director!"
"Which female director?"
"Just that character Zhao Liying!"
"...But at that time, you didn't take the initiative to join. Zhao Liying was recommended by Lu Yang. She especially liked the script and took the initiative to find Ning Hao. She confiscated the one-cent money and played this role!"
The young lady was silent...
She really can't do this.
Moreover, in order to make her look more like Ge You and more like a female director, Zhao Liying specially cut her hair short and exposed her big forehead...
This kind of spirit of trying hard for the role also made her successfully recommended to take over "Modern Era" and partner with Xu Zheng.
Huang Boy also filmed "The Blade"...
"Actually, your image is not suitable for comedy... A movie like comedy requires the talent of the actors themselves. You are too beautiful unless you are willing to make a vase to set off the actors..."
“…I don’t mind if there is a good script!”
"You said it!"
The school beauty in "Charlotte's Troubles" is naturally suitable for you!
Wang Zhi... has a little bad reputation.
The young lady nodded and asked him: "Is "Lost in Thailand" good?"
"It's not bad. "Lost in Thailand" is considered a hilarious comedy, and "One Scene to the End" follows the genre of warmth and reunion. The two are different branches of comedy..."
"Will there be conflict?"
"Tell me so, when I was working on a plane, I could watch comedy for 12 hours in a row!"
...
Back to "One Scene to the End", he beat "1942" on the third day and still maintained the single-day box office championship, exceeding 100 million in three days!
Before the official website of "One Scene to the End" issued a press release that exceeded 100 million in three days, Huang Zhonglei complained on Weibo: "There is only 14.8% of the films in Jiahe theaters in "1942", and the number of films in the golden game is even only 12%. This is a pure suppression of "1942"!"
"Director Feng Xiaogang worked hard for ten months in 1942, and Huayi even spent 210 million to create it!"
"This is a work that everyone is suffering from. The actors, directors, screenwriters, and everyone put in the maximum strength. This is the hard work of Chinese filmmakers!"
"I don't want such a phenomenal blockbuster, China's "Shintler List", to cause a dilemma because of a little dispute!"
"Chinese movies must not be willful!"
Directly @ Chen Mengxi...
When he posted on Weibo, it was ten o'clock in the evening. Chen Mengxi was busy entering the harmony of life with his sister and did not reply immediately.
Zhao Jinsong replied:
"Two things, Jiahe Cinemas are not under our control. If we can do whatever we want, we will 100% of the filming of "One Scene to the End";
The basis for filming is the judgment of theater managers - the most accurate prediction of the box office in the Chinese film market will always be theater managers;
Secondly, the attendance rate of the movie "1942" in Jiahe Theater is only 8.2%, which is much lower than that of "Band-Aid", and even the attendance rate is not as good as that of "Band-Aid", which is only 5% in schedule..."
His reply is summed up in one sentence: If you don’t sell the market, you still expect me to schedule more films for you? Is such a big face?
Chapter completed!
