Chapter 261 After you sing, I will take the stage!
Although "Red Cliff" has many shocking aspects, there are still some shining points, otherwise the audience would not have clapped their hands.
Zhuge Liang, the most handsome man in history, is so handsome...
Lin Zhiling's voice is as crisp as her bones. When she opens her mouth, she either gets goosebumps or feels unbearably itchy, making her a vase above the passing line.
Although there are not many big scenes, the action scenes are neither realistically brutal nor very handsome.
The rivalry between Zhuge Liang and Zhou Yu can be regarded as satisfying the fantasy of some rotten girls.
An 8-minute date, in an ecstatic ensemble, two heartthrobs, four high-voltage electric eyes, and dozens of strings, what an artistic conception.
And the dialogue between Zhuge Liang and Sun Shangxiang.
Sun Shangxiang pouted, "Do you think I'm going too far?"
Zhuge Liang raised his eyebrows, "I think you have a lot of personality."
Sun Shangxiang's smile turned into a flower, "You still understand me."
...
Overall, the lines are a big failure. It’s not just a matter of the actors’ accents and line design. No one’s lines are in line with the time and situation they live in. The dubbing still has to be dubbed.
The action scenes are also not satisfactory, the action director is Yuan Kui, and every move has the shadow of the Hong Kong kung fu movies of the 1980s.
The costumes and scenery are quite well done.
As for the plot, I also explained it clearly, it is the foreplay of the Battle of Red Cliff.
After the movie ended, Wu Yusen said some words of thanks on the stage, and then the audience left.
The reporter came up again and asked Tang An what he thought of the movie.
"It's very good. The historical background is explained very concisely at the beginning: Cao Cao is here, how can Emperor Xian of Han still be fooling around?"
In a six-minute long foreplay, I just said this sentence, and the same common problems abounded afterward. It was too procrastinating.
"This film is just like Director Wu's previous films. It has a strong sense of personal heroism, the affectionate and righteous Zhao Yun, Guan Yu and Zhang Fei who are one against a hundred, and Zhou Yu who is suave and proficient in music, chess, calligraphy and painting. He can also
Killing the generals and seizing the flag in front of the battle, and Zhuge Liang, his calmness and wisdom can be seen every time he smiles but not smiles..."
No matter what the film is, there are always some merits, and it’s not difficult to praise it.
At the cocktail party that followed, Wu Bo came up to him with a smile on his face.
"What did Director Tang think of the film?"
Now Wu Bo is more at ease, and judging from the reaction at the scene, the audience is still very satisfied.
There are handsome guys, beauties, fighting and war scenes, plus the combination of director + big stars, it’s hard to imagine whether it will be popular.
"It's very good and sophisticated. It is indeed a blockbuster that has been carefully prepared for three or four years." Tang An said with a smile.
Wu Bo nodded proudly, took a sip of the red wine in his glass, and asked again, "How much box office does Director Tang think he can get on the first day!"
"It shouldn't be lower than the 2,200 on the first day of "Transformers," and it's very likely to reach the 25 million mark." Tang An said a number casually.
"Haha... Then I would like to thank Director Tang Jiyan."
It was rare to see Tang An "bow his head", Wu Bo felt very happy, and actually started chatting with Tang An, laughing and talking.
When everyone at the scene saw that two people who were supposed to be enemies could chat so happily, their eyes were filled with doubts as they didn't know what they were talking about.
Let you laugh, you won't be able to laugh next week.
Tang An drank the wine in his glass in one gulp, chatted for a while, and then went to talk to someone else.
After the dinner, Tang An returned to the capital.
We didn’t arrive until 4 a.m., but I slept for several hours in the car and on the plane, so I wasn’t too sleepy.
Xu Manyun had already gone to bed. After taking a bath, he got into the quilt, hugged her and fell asleep slowly.
He was asleep, but there were many people there and no one was there.
As the most important movie this year, the release of "Red Cliff" can be said to have touched the hearts of everyone in the entertainment industry.
Coupled with the fact that it is approaching release, China Film and Chengtian have increased their investment in publicity, and can barely compete with "Now You See Me".
It has been more than three years since the film was prepared, and basically all the viewers know that there is such a movie. Coupled with the overwhelming publicity, the box office on the first day was an unexpected hit.
24 million on the first day!
It set a first-day box office record in the history of Chinese-language films, and also broke the first-day box office record set by "Transformers" in the mainland film market.
In the next four days, the box office continued this trend, grossing 100 million yuan in four days, and exceeded the 25 million mark on Saturday.
The first weekend box office record, the highest single-day box office record, and the fastest to break 100 million.
A series of records were broken by "Red Cliff", just like "The Promise" back then.
But whether this momentum can be maintained, who knows.
The achievement of over 100 million in 4 days has made all the media go crazy. This is an unprecedented feat. China Film and Chengtian are desperately spending money to promote it and ensure the box office on the first working day next week.
However, Huayi is not idle either. After all, it has sufficient publicity expenses, and it is not unreasonable to engage in negative public relations.
The public relations department mobilized a large number of trolls and contacted many well-known film critics and Douban, as well as some of the more active users.
Just throw money at them and make them write articles full of criticism.
Film reviews are flying like snowflakes to every corner of the Internet and reality. These high-quality film reviews are all well-founded, and some of the more sophisticated film reviews are even written by historical experts.
This is about the movie itself. In addition, a lot of netizens on the Internet are expressing their disappointment in the tone of a die-hard fan. In every aspect, there are no curse words or curse words. It means that the movie ruined the actors and it was completely different from what was expected.
.
The public relations department was divided into several groups, with a clear division of labor. There was also a group of people who sent people to catch some weird scenes in the movie, gathered together, and denounced Wu Yusen for tampering with history.
The first working day was the most critical time, and neither party held back.
However, even under Huayi's targeted negative public relations, "Red Cliff" still took in a box office of 12 million yuan on Monday the 14th, with the decline steadily stopping at the 50% dividing line.
However, it may be that negative marketing has played a role, word-of-mouth has spread, or the early enthusiasm has slowly dissipated. The box office did not increase on Tuesday's half-price day, and was still over 12 million.
It was released for 6 days, with a total box office of 124 million, an unprecedented figure.
In addition to the mainland, the box office in Southeast Asia, Hong Kong and Taiwan is also a hit.
Xiangjiang received 10 million in four days in the first weekend!
Baodao earned NT$75 million in four days, equivalent to RMB 18 million, which is comparable to "Yangtze No. 7" which earned NT$80 million in five days at the beginning of the year.
In South Korea, it attracted more than 800,000 viewers in the four days of its first weekend, ranking first with an audience share of 27.6%. It earned US$5.6 million in four days, setting the best performance for a Chinese-language film in South Korea.
However, Nippon won't be released until October. It seems that it took in nearly 1 billion yen at the box office in three days, equivalent to 60 million yuan!
In other parts of Southeast Asia, the box office was also a hit, and it rarely beat out many Hollywood blockbusters released at the same time.
Success is inevitable, "Red Cliff" is even expected to hit the 300 million mark, and the next pressure will all be on "Now You See Me".
On the afternoon of Wednesday, July 16, "Now You See Me" held its world premiere ceremony at the Workers' Stadium, and was released simultaneously in the three places across the Taiwan Strait and Southeast Asia.
After you sing and I will go on stage, we don’t know who will be the winner!
