1154: Alsace

The documentary also achieved unexpectedly good results, which is really gratifying.

Li Donglai finally put down his burden and returned to the crew of "World of Warcraft" for filming.

Time flies, and July is coming in a blink of an eye. The domestic summer vacation is coming, and an unexpectedly popular movie is released, which continues to help the Phantom maintain the number of weekly champions that is unattainable in the mainland.

The promotional "Tiny Times" was released as scheduled, with a box office of more than 260 million yuan in four days in the first week, which really shocked many people. It was 7.4 million yuan in the first hour, breaking the box office record of Chinese films at the first day. The box office exceeded 70 million yuan in the first day, and exceeded 200 million yuan in three days. The box office in a single day was more than 50 million yuan for four consecutive days. The two days on the weekend also drove the market to over 100 million yuan in a single day.

The Phantom won the 17th weekly championship this year!

The box office is high, and the screening volume remains at a high level. It reached 45% on the first day of its release, and then it has steadily increased, hovering around 50%. It is expected that the box office will exceed 300 million mark in 6 days of release.

It is time for Guo Xiaosi to achieve such box office results for the first time as a director. But in sharp contrast to the rising box office, the film's evaluation, and all Li Donglai's previous reminders came true. Although he reminded him, Guo Xiaosi could not make complete improvements. His fans and "Tiny Times" book fans are relatively low in age, mainly born in the 1990s, and praised the film, but born in the 1970s and 1980s expressed doubts, values, showing off wealth, and naive plots have all become problems.

The Phantom has been in the country for a full half year. Except for "The Grandmaster" before the Spring Festival and the only two imported blockbusters, no other movies won the Zhou champion. At this time, a movie by the Phantom fell into a quagmire of reputation, and there were immediately criticisms.

The film has been discussed on Weibo for many consecutive days. The famous film critic Zhou Liming has a very low evaluation of "Tiny Times". Guo Xiaosi, as the director, also responded on Weibo. For a while, various voices were released, which was very lively.

Such a high topic actually indirectly contributed to the box office of the film, but the Phantom's logo was hung on the film. It is also considered the Phantom's first bad movie this year. For reasons of his own company's movies, Li Donglai naturally had to help and divert the attention of criticism while filming. He tried his best to traction on the director's first work, gorgeous style and beautiful lenses.

The next week, "Tiny Times" won the weekly championship again, helping the Phantom achieve its 18th weekly championship this year.

But at this time, there was already a lack of momentum and there were indeed enough topics. But only in the hearts of fans and low-age audiences, this drama is called a "bad movie" in most media reports. Reputation has become the biggest reason for the film's continued money-making. The stamina is insufficient. Once the target group has watched the movie, it cannot rely on word of mouth to expand the audience.

Since its release 11 days, the highest box office in a single day is 77 million on the first day of the painting, but it has never been able to achieve a single day of over 100 million. The first week of nearly 270 million is indeed quite good, with an additional 155 million in the next week, with a total of 420 million.

The media is going crazy. On the page that broadcasts the movie box office, they openly used the title "Phantom's Eighteen Weeks" to attract attention. After only half a year, they won 18 weeks of championships, which made other big-name movie companies feel ashamed.

The two newly launched blockbusters, "Blind Detective" and "Tai Chi Hero", performed completely oppositely. The former has a good reputation, with a box office of 90 million in four days in the first week, and has become a single-day box office champion for many consecutive days, while the latter suffered a Waterloo, and it only struggled to approach 18 million in three days in the first week. It was only ranked fifth on the ranking list.

Li Donglai's documentary lasted for January and eventually achieved a remarkable achievement of over 500 million in China, which also created an eye-catching benchmark for documentaries in the mainland.

But his attention was no longer on the box office, and someone there helped him stare.

During this period, the filming of "World of Warcraft" was very fast, and the team became tacit after a week of running-in command.

Since most of them are shot in studios, and the virtual actors have more scenes than real actors, the number of shots is less than that of ordinary blockbusters. With Li Donglai's usual style of filming, the real-life shooting and studio shooting cycles are not too long.

In more than one quarter, the filming can be completed and then officially enter the post-production stage.

The crew of "World of Warcraft" in China has gradually come to an end. The studio location is transferred to the Zhang family\world and still attracts a large number of tourists to watch every day, although there are a large number of security guards and walls that make it impossible for them to enter the studio to have a glimpse.

When the managers of Zhangjiajie National Forest Park saw the monthly tourism data summary in June and July, they were so happy that they were looking for their teeth: the number of tourists increased by 50% compared with the same period last year, which was extremely amazing.

This is not a partner, it is simply the God of Wealth.

Fortunately, I did not underestimate "World of Warcraft" at the beginning, and I was even more grateful that I actively cooperated with the crew's entry and construction. I thought in my heart that I must cooperate with the various work of the crew of "World of Warcraft".

After filming here, the entire crew immediately moved to Iceland to conduct the next step of outdoor shooting.

During this period, in the mainland film market, the summer season was approaching as scheduled. Liu Dehua's money-making movie "Tianji: Fuchun Mountain Residence" was found by the producers who could not find Lin Zhiling to play. The appeal was correspondingly lower, but with the box office attractiveness of the king, it still attracted more than 200 million in the first week. Unfortunately, Liu Dehua did not listen to Li Donglai's advice at the beginning, and his reputation was several times worse than "Tiny Times".

The ratings are always low and then low, and it is a model of bad movies.

It is more of a collection of advertisements than a movie.

The "2013 Film Vane Annual Movie List" jointly created by the Film and Television Communication Research Center of Tsinghua University and the Hubei Film Distribution and Screening Corporation was announced. "Tianji-Fuchun Mountain Residence" won the "Sour Grape Award" and became the most disappointing movie of the year. Although this award is a clumsy imitating Hollywood and has no influence or popularity, it reflects everyone's disappointment from the side.

Especially for King Liu, his popularity soared rapidly after joining the Phantom.

He also starred in Li Donglai's science fiction blockbuster "Georgement". Unexpectedly, the first mainland drama that was not the Phantom was like this. It really disappointed fans. The next week of the movie, the direct drop was 80%, and it would not be possible to exceed 300 million.

Liu Dehua was very depressed and apologized first for the public, saying that he would be more cautious in taking on the film in the future. Compared to this movie, he was more worried that it would affect the box office of "Georgement" released in October. He repeatedly developed for "Georgement", claiming that "Georgement" is good and how the Cannes Grand Prix is, and put the blame on himself.

He is a smart man, and has experienced so much intrigue and knows better than anyone else how to protect himself in this circle.

After apologizing, fans will not hold him too responsible. After all, he is King Liu.

...

"The equipment group checks the equipment again."

"The light group will pay attention to changes later."

"Wait for the next time, the No. 5 machine will be backed up. See my gestures."

Several actors took a deep breath and were hung onto Wia again. Now the filming of Alsace using a sword to chisel out an iceberg and carved out an iceberg spiral staircase. He will find the Ice Throne here and become the Lich King of Zhigao.

"boom!"

Li Donglai slashed on the ice brick with a sword, and countless ice chips splashed into the 3D camera.

There are many places covered by ice and snow in Iceland, but it is impossible to find a perfectly suitable scene of the frozen throne. Many shots require repeated shooting over and over again, and finally they are combined by synthesis methods.

So the shooting cannot be fast. Sometimes, with one sword, it will only leave a scene of flying debris, and even the chaotic figures will not be taken.

This scene took three days to shoot, and a complete set of shots was completed.

Alsace is a counter-angle and has a very contradictory personality.

This is also the first time that Li Donglai has challenged a role with such a complex personality.

As the prince of the Kingdom of Lordaeron, he was destined to bear huge responsibilities from the day he was born. Therefore, under the influence of good family education, Alsace gradually grew into an excellent prince.

He is kind, enthusiastic, upright, brave... and has almost all the good qualities that the world has. Although, sometimes, he will show a little bit of arrogance. But as the heir to the future kingdom, he is almost perfect.

Therefore, his father, King Terenas, the ruler of Lordaeron, and the subjects of the kingdom were not only proud of having such a prince, but also placed hopes of revitalizing the kingdom and even the alliance camp on him. To a certain extent, Arthas lost himself from the beginning and became a symbol painted countless marks.

As Arthas grew older, he gradually realized the historical mission he carried. This huge pressure forced him to work harder to train himself. At this point, he basically had enough understanding of his life value. Under the influence of countless people, the prince's life goals were established in this way.

It is also for the above reasons that Arthas tried to prove his wishes became very urgent. At this moment, Kelthuzad was making trouble in the Kingdom of Lordaeron. The evil doctrine he spread blinded countless people who longed for happiness and transformed them into a walking dead Scourge Legion. The Scourge Legion not only endangered the people on the border of Lordaeron, but also shook the foundation of the entire kingdom. In this case, Arthas had to stand up and try to prevent this tragedy from becoming more and more intense.

Because this is his responsibility as a prince and an opportunity.

King Terenas would not give up on this opportunity to help his son establish prestige and gain respect. But he still made a cautious decision, which was to ask the prince to assist the commander of the army, Uther, the messenger of the light, instead of replacing him. In real history, this practice was also often used. The role of the young prince should be a learner.

But we must admit that humility is a very difficult moral for a young man with extremely high ambitions and a noble status.

At the beginning, Arthas was able to put his position right, so he respected the messenger of light very much. But as time went by, the arrogant prince began to find that the senior around him was so "pedantic and conservative". On the other hand, the huge harm caused by natural disasters to the people of Lordaeron also made Arthas heartbroken. His strong sense of responsibility and historical mission made Arthas hate natural disasters to the core. This hatred also turned into a strong desire.

The events that dominated Alsace's life finally happened.

One day, the prince and the envoy of light received news that a village was poisoned by natural disasters, and many people suddenly lost their souls and became walking corpses. Arthas was anxious and immediately rushed there with Uther.

However, after arriving, everything in front of him made Arthas very angry and sad: almost overnight, everyone in the village and town became demon servants.

The love for his people and the hatred for natural disasters were immediately intertwined. The prince vowed to heaven: no matter how much the price he paid, he must eradicate the Scourge Legion for his whole life. He was merciful and could not control his anger and vented his anger on the residents of the villages and towns who had lost their souls. He refused to execute the orders of the messenger of Light, led his followers, and began a crazy massacre.

The entire village and town were almost razed to the ground.

Rationally speaking, his behavior was understandable and reasonable in the environment at that time. However, through this incident, Uther, the messenger of Light, found that Alsace had a strong desire to kill in his heart. Uther was very angry, but given that the two had different identities and could not have an attack, he chose to part ways with Alsace.

...

A person with extremely kindness and brightness will be very thorough once he falls into depravity.

Just like the Gemini in Saint Seiya.

Such a bright character has a dark side.

This is the contradiction between the characters and the most attractive and huge turning point.
