Chapter 42: A Magical Year
It's a response to a bunch of self-media some time ago, and marketing accounts stepped on him...
Why step on him?
It’s normal to hold on to one hand.
Li Mi is a Taiwanese filmmaker, while Chen Mengxi is a mainland film villain, so he was naturally divided!
It's just like many people holding Yang Dechang, Hou Hsiao-hsien, and stepping on Zhang Yi.
In fact, the three recent movies, "Doctor Strange" has the worst reputation...
Douban Comment: In addition to special effects, the story is almost zero...
Although it is a bit exaggerated, it is not without reason!
It can be seen that the whole movie is a bit rush, and it has been made up of magical logic, which has resulted in the story and characters' encounters without any realism and persuasion, and cannot motivate the emotions that the audience should have.
But it's just a high box office, what can you do?
North America's box office was US$230 million, and the global sales were US$670 million, successfully ranked among the top 100 film history...
Many viewers actually went to the theater to watch movies just for the easter eggs!
Some time ago, because of the incident of "Birds Seeking Phoenix", director Wu Tianming's daughter Wu Yanyan became famous. She publicly said, "The situation in the United States is also relatively bad. Hollywood only shoots Marvel. I know many filmmakers. They also say they are very boring, but the Six Das not dare to take risks, so Netflix and Amazon appeared. Young children were brainwashed by Marvel, but there is indeed nothing on the market that can be shown to them. Everyone is discussing this confusion - what movies should be made? What can be left in history? But Marvel certainly won't. At best, it's just entertainment, and it won't stay in history like "Schindler's List".
In fact, this kind of remarks is very common. Arisandro, the director of "Birdman", actually said: "Superhero movies are products that harm society and are a kind of stifling culture!"
But Wu Yanyan's words are easily seen as jealous and sour. After all, almost all Marvel movies have reached the top 100 box office list!
In this era of box office analysis of success or failure...
...
It was a magical year!
First of all, the quality of "The Mermaid" is unsatisfactory. Although it has temporarily won the highest box office in Chinese film history, based on market compensation and balance theory, it has set the foreshadowing for the mediocre box office of his next movie;
Then, "World Warcraft", which had high expectations, suffered a crushing box office defeat!
I really have high hopes. "Warcraft" has more than one billion companies worldwide. Many people made a post before the movie was released, "Warcraft" had the highest box office in the history of film, do you dare to gamble?"
If you really need to follow the Internet logic, the box office of "Warcraft" has the highest box office in the history of movies, and the probability is very high - the best in the world of Warcraft! Avatar's box office is nothing, Star Wars is nothing, and Warcraft movies are nothing, and Warcraft movies are nothing in seconds!
Then, Hollywood popcorn movies collectively failed—"X-Men: Apocalypse", "Independence Day 2", "Strange Stories 2", "Spy Shadows 5", "Tennis Ninja Turtles 2", "Return of Tarzan: Dangerous Fighting the Jungle"…
All are works with box office and reputation that are not up to expectations!
Now even Li Mi has suffered a Waterloo!
"Billy Lynn's Midfield War", North America is sure to be unable to expand its release venues, and it is estimated that only 68 theaters will be screened at most;
The box office in the mainland is OK, with 86 million in the first weekend, which is no suspense, but if you want to be higher, there is no possibility of it - even on the working day, despite the 20% schedule of the filming schedule, "The Unknown" has already squeezed into the market, and the latter won 69% of the blockbusters with 28% schedule.
Ren Suxi gained a foothold in the film industry with only one movie!
To put it in, she, Peng Yuchang and Zhang Zixian were both from the Potato variety show "The Birth of an Actor"...
This also helped "The Birth of an Actor" to a certain extent...
Anyway, the third jealousy has not started to prepare yet, and a bunch of brands are already rushing to name and sponsor.
OK, back to the topic...
Of course, director Feng Xiaogang is indispensable in this magical year...
"I Am Not Pan Jinlian" is a work by Director Feng since "Private Customization"!
This book is compiled and produced by the official account. Follow VX [Book Friends Base Camp] to read books and receive cash red envelopes!
Of course, he has appeared frequently in recent years, served as a mentor for major variety shows, and has also been a producer, and has brought the new director Zhang Hao - "Destined"...
He also became an actor and won the Golden Horse Award.
"I Am Not Pan Jinlian" won the best film of the San Bastian Film Festival, and he felt that he was a little master!
During the promotion, I said, "I have gained both fame and fortune for a long time. It's time to do something right and get the title of director."
‘I don’t care about the box office, the box office doesn’t make much sense to me!’
But habitual hype - when changing schedules, it also implies that the media "the specific reason is currently unknown, and it is rumored that the video has not been reviewed."
At the seminar, a college student asked, "Is there any difficulty in passing the review of this movie?" He said, "If American college students were sitting here, they wouldn't ask these questions at all. You are only in your early twenties and your mind is full of these. I suggest throwing them away, really, throwing them away. People say that college students are the hope of China's future. Our college students have so much self-examination awareness when they go to school, so we really have no future in the future."
It doesn't matter if I suffer a little grievance, you are the future!'
Unfortunately, this rhythm has not been brought up...
Everyone seems to be not paying much attention to him, but the leader is still filling in the report. Li Fei'er's affairs are interesting!
no…
Mainly talking about 120 frames...
Feng Xiaogang played with the big one and wrote a letter to Wang Jianling directly...
...
"well…"
Watching Director Feng fight Wanda again, Shen Mengxi feels sad from the bottom of her heart...
It’s not that I feel lost or something, it’s really a bit sad!
Director Feng lost his voice!
Or, he doesn't understand this era anymore!
In this era, the most suitable person to pretend to be a pig and eat a tiger is obviously very awesome, but he pretends to be cowards on the surface and always lives in an indifferent attitude, laughing and hiking, rebounding all doubts.
So what is the meaning of living?
Just make money by kneeling, and then straighten your back and enjoy the pleasure of spending money?
But you have to know that people are very strange. Once you get used to kneeling, your waist will not be straight.
In the past, in the era without the Internet, only a small number of elites had the right to speak, and everyone just looked up with their mouths closed;
With the Internet, everyone can speak ill of bad words and don’t have to be responsible.
There are already people in the world.
But as soon as the Internet comes, all the rivers and lakes are connected, and they are gathered together, becoming a big pool of muddy water.
Anyone can say a few words...
But if you observe carefully, it seems to be deserted and no one expresses his opinion. People who know are in the interests of the people, and people who don’t know can’t see the truth or the false, but they just feel that there is poisonous gas in the fog around them, and it seems that they have become worse without exercise. They take two steps and get gasped...
Just say a word and you may be killed!
In fact, it’s not bad to be quiet, life is just that!
The young lady suddenly came over and said, "Why are you sighing?"
Chen Mengxi: "It's okay, I just thought that if one day someone will bring up old accounts and turn them into me, it will be embarrassing!"
“…you won’t!”
"How do you know?"
The young lady frowned and comforted her: "...You have rarely said anything publicly in recent years, and your views are not as sharp as before..."
"…It's true that I have been a lot low-key in recent years. I have posted less than twenty Weibo posts a year, most of which are promotional movies..."
Suddenly awakened, Chen Mengxi found that she had really changed a lot!
Not to mention anything else, just Director Feng PK Wanda, he would have been sarcastic about it before - Jiahe's filming schedule in "I'm Not Pan Jinlian" is only 31%, which is lower than the market average...
The reason is very simple, theaters are not optimistic!
Why do you think theaters will buy your account?
"The Unknown" and "Doctor Strange" are both being released!
But now, he stands far...
Look at this matter very rationally!
If this matter comes from Director Feng's perspective, it is Wanda bullying people - only 12% of them are scheduled for films!
If it were Chen Mengxi's new films, Wanda would only schedule 12% of the films, he would definitely be angry.
However, if he is angry, the result is that you will not schedule an film and I will not issue you a key!
So, what is the conclusion?
Director Feng lacks confidence in himself, and at the same time, he also overestimates his image in the minds of netizens...
As for Wanda, no matter what, it is indeed suspected of being a big dealer in the store - 12%. This screening really looks down on Feng Xiaogang!
It is naturally divided into two factions on Weibo, most of which are on Wanda...
Chapter completed!
