At the end of December, the Chinese film market was as busy as ever.
The foreign blockbuster "The Spy" has come to an end, finally earning around 1.6 billion at the box office.
This box office performance is not very outstanding, but it is not bad, and it beats all the films released at the same time. The final result can be regarded as meeting expectations.
And with the release of "Super Spy", the New Year's Eve holiday is here again.
This New Year's Day schedule is still very lively, with two blockbusters, some small-budget movies, and even a science fiction film that was the first to follow the trend of "The Wandering Earth".
Well, the key to following the trend is speed. The filming of this film had already started before "The Wandering Earth" was released. However, the filming was very poor at the time and it was not even planned to be released to theaters. However, in
After seeing the box office success of "The Wandering Earth", the relevant producers actually changed their minds and reinvested several million in special effects, reshooting some scenes, and finally released it during New Year's Day.
Based on the sci-fi craze caused by "The Wandering Earth" some time ago, their "Wandering Galaxy" should not be bad either.
This is indeed the case. After watching the gorgeous trailer of "Wandering Stars", many people have already pre-purchased movie tickets online in advance.
Two days before the New Year's Day official opening, the online pre-sale box office of "Wandering Galaxy" was actually on par with the other two real blockbusters.
This is too scary, the heat is so easy to get rid of.
However, anyone who has participated in the film "Wandering Galaxy" knows that in fact...compared to "The Wandering Earth", their follow-up film is simply a fighter among rubbish. They themselves never imagined that it could be so pre-sold now.
Much money.
And most of these people have already anticipated the word-of-mouth feedback after the film was released. Many of them have even secretly changed their numbers, revoked their social media authentication, and voluntarily shrank their heads and prepared to be a turtle.
Pity those who bought tickets and are still waiting with great anticipation to watch the second part of "The Wandering Earth"!
Even these viewers are very tolerant and think that even if it is not as good as "The Wandering Earth", if it can be half the level, it will be worth it.
Haha, these optimistic people have no idea what is waiting for them.
…
On New Year's Day, it snowed heavily in Kyoto City.
On this day, both Chen Feng and An Ruohua took a rare break at home.
Recently, Chen Feng has spent most of his time in An Ruohua's office at Ping An Investment Company. Although he has not done a lot of work this year, there are still many trivial things to deal with one after another.
Of course, most of them were solved by An Ruohua, and Chen Feng was responsible for taking care of them.
An Ruohua is now very efficient at work and has become a qualified company leader. Chen Fengle is always behind her to help. The two of them work together in a tacit understanding and are very harmonious.
But sometimes Chen Feng would help An Ruohua make some important decisions. Chen Feng didn't know much about other businesses, but he still had good judgment when it came to film investment.
For example, in recent times, there have been significantly more cooperation projects invested in Ping An Investment Company.
Because of the influence of "The Wandering Earth", many people have begun to realize that if they can get the support of Ping An Investment, their projects will be half successful.
However, the recognition of Ping An Investment Company is not so easy to obtain.
An Ruohua's usual review standards were very strict, and with Chen Feng's help, not even one or two of the hundreds of film proposals passed the test.
Sometimes, even if it was a project that An Ruohua was optimistic about, Chen Feng would throw it aside after a few glances.
An Ruohua argued with Chen Feng several times for this reason, but every time in the end, An Ruohua found that she seemed to be unable to compete with Chen Feng.
Well, after thinking about it, what Chen Feng said seems to make sense.
…
It was not until New Year's Day that the company arranged a holiday, and Chen Feng and An Ruohua finally had a rare two days of relaxation.
It happened to catch up with the heavy snow in Kyoto City. Chen Feng and An Ruohua slept in together. They got up at about ten o'clock in the morning and had some breakfast. Then they went to their small greenhouse garden to drink tea and chat.
It's snowing heavily outside, but it's warm as spring in the small greenhouse garden. It's surrounded by green plants and the air is fresh. It's so comfortable to sit here and drink tea.
"Huh? Look, that movie "Wandering Galaxy" really overturned..."
An Ruohua waved her phone at Chen Feng with some gloating.
Chen Feng took the phone directly and glanced at it.
Sure enough, Weibo has already exploded, and the most popular topic currently is the movie "Wandering Stars".
As a follow-up to "The Wandering Earth", this film can be said to be extremely bad, and many people are angrily criticizing this film.
"What the hell, is this it? A Chinese science fiction movie? I bought a watch last year!"
"Haha, do you still remember what is written on the promotional poster? This is the second Chinese science fiction masterpiece after "The Wandering Earth"... I can't stand it anymore. I can't go on. I'm going to vomit for a while."
""Wandering Galaxy"... this movie is so embarrassing..."
"The one upstairs is not embarrassing, it's rotten. It's so rotten that there is no bottom line!"
"Hey, where is the director of this film? I remember seeing his Weibo before, and his certification. Why can't I search it now?"
"Damn it, the director changed his name on Weibo. This is his new account..."
…
Almost instantly, the new Weibo of the director of "Wandering Galaxy" was exploded, which was simply too horrible to watch.
Chen Feng flipped through it for a while and couldn't help laughing.
It seems that this movie really caused public outrage.
Someone even commented: "If "The Wandering Earth" showed us the hope of Chinese science fiction blockbusters, then this "Wandering Galaxy" is a direct bucket of cold water poured on it, directly igniting the ignition of Chinese science fiction films.
A small flame poured out my heart!"
Of course, some people have seriously analyzed the reasons why "Wandering Galaxy" sucked.
"Because this is a movie that wants to make money by relying on popularity. Whether it is the plot or the special effects of the movie, there is no sincerity at all. This is not even worthy of being called a movie. This is a scam!
"
There are even angry viewers and movie fans who are ready to take the producer of "Wandering Stars" directly to court, accusing him of fraud!
If someone really did this, it would probably be an unprecedented feat in the history of film.
Throughout the morning, Chen Feng and An Ruohua happily watched the farce in their small greenhouse garden, especially An Ruohua, who at first felt a little indignant about the appearance of so many films following the trend of "The Wandering Earth".
But after seeing the ending of "Wandering Galaxy", she finally felt relieved again.
