Chapter 37 Disputes (3/34)

Is this crazy?

Another Zhang Yimou has appeared in China?

This is the reaction of many ordinary viewers who care about the movie when they learned that the box office of the movie "Those Years" reached 138 million in three days. Of course, the next second their reaction became, "It's really that good-looking? I'll check it out too!" or, "I don't know if the high-definition pirated version was released, I have to watch this movie as soon as possible!"

Chinese people are blindly obedient. Many people watch movies and choose to watch one. They don’t know how to review them. They only watch movies that rank at the top of the box office or movies with a lot of reputation among the audience.

For example, the popularity of "Wolf Warrior 2" is really based on a movie website like Douban, you will subconsciously think that "Wolf Warrior 2" is just like this and there is nothing to watch.

But if you really sit in the screening room and watch the 3D high-definition version of the movie, you will think that the movie is really exciting and makes people feel excited.

Then, the box office is getting higher and higher, with a box office of more than 5 billion yuan, tsk...

At the same time the movie was released, its reputation also came out.

Whether it is Douban, Time.com, including some film critics who Xu Hui never valued, are crazy about calling for "Those Years"!

"The pioneering work of youth pure love movies is very innocent in the era, not bloody, and resonates with each other!"

"This is the feeling of youth!"

Of course, if someone likes it, someone will definitely oppose it crazy.

Xu Hui is not RMB, so everyone can't be satisfied with it. What's more, although this "Those Years" has been adapted by Xu Hui, to be honest, Xu Hui will feel a little awkward when watching it.

Maybe the lines are a little pretentious, after all, Xu Hui has long passed this youthful age, and the passion can move!

"Filled with the director's self-righteous neurotic expression..."

"All kinds of boring and all kinds of costumes, most of the laughs are salty and wet and barely, and the characters are seriously stereotyped. If this can represent the youth of some people, I'm speechless..."

Xu Hui can accept all these, but the only thing he cannot accept is some ulterior motives.

...

Director Lu Chuan was very frustrated. Seeing that the box office of "Nanjing! Nanjing!" was about to exceed 100 million, "Those Years" suddenly came out.

"Nanjing! Nanjing!" is produced by China Film and the NJ government has allocated funds to collaborate on filming. The entire film costs 130 million yuan. To put it bluntly, a group of people agreed to shoot this drama and never thought that they could make a profit.

They want to reappear a national disaster so that people will not forget the past!

In short, make it an anti-war movie.

As for the box office, as long as it is acceptable.

Lu Chuan is an ambitious director.

All academics have their own ambitions, thinking of seeing greatness from the ordinary and revealing epics from the ordinary.

It’s not that simple. If every director had that ability, Chinese movies would have been the best in the world!

Unfortunately, these people don’t understand, and Lu Chuan obviously doesn’t understand. He also worked hard to make it a classic when he directed "Nanjing! Nanjing!" at the beginning.

Maybe it was because of the deviation of the self-cognition system, or maybe he realized that with his own strength, let alone two years, he would not be sure to capture such a grand historical event.

Let’s just go to the box office!

So the movie "Nanjing! Nanjing!", which was originally planned to explore the profound and grand theme, became a thing that made money with the grief of the people.

In addition, during the filming period, Director Lu conquered Da Meiyuan, which is the most proud of his life.

Then, the movie was released.

As expected, the reputation is extremely bad.

However, Lu Chuan did not take this seriously. First, the industry has a good evaluation of him. Many film critics kept their eyes closed and said, "Nanjing! Nanjing!" is worthy of being kept in history!

Second, Lu Chuan has paranoid persecution.

He really felt that all the netizens who made a flip on Douban were water soldiers - 'Where did the bad comments come from? There were 10,000 netizens on Douban who gave me full marks!'

Haha, but did you not see that the remaining tens of thousands of people have negative reviews?

No matter how well the reputation is, the box office has risen as expected.

Such subject matter, such publicity...

Just as Lu Chuan was about to be crowned the seventh domestic director with a box office of over 100 million, Xu Hui brought "Those Years" to the theaters.

Originally, Lu Chuan hadn't taken this movie or took Xu Hui seriously.

What qualifications does Xu Hui have to compare with Lu Chuan, who has achieved success and is known as the next generation of masters?

Reality slapped in the face too quickly.

It won a box office of 34 million on the first day, and in the next two days, it was astonished as a 48 million and 52 million!

Damn it!

what happened?

Is this a domestic movie?

Let’s look at my own “Nanjing! Nanjing!” and I was squeezed to the point where only 10% of the films were left.

Without the volume of screenings, where can the box office come from?

Without box office, what should I do?

Lu Chuan began to fear.

"The Empire of Money" directed by Wang Jingda was released for only one day, and the number of screenings was cut to 14%.

Lu Chuan had never watched "Those Years", and his sixth sense told him that "Those Years" must be a bad movie!

So, it makes sense that the quality of the sixth sense is not as good as Durex...

...

Lu Chuan's father Lu Tianming is the kind of person who is written on the Du Niang Encyclopedia. He has many titles, including famous writers, critics, screenwriters and film critics.

Lu Chuan is proud and noble in his heart. He likes epic, sense of the times and rituals, depth of human nature, and grand propositions and vocabulary.

For example, he defined "The King's Feast" as follows: "The King's Feast" is not the Hongmen Banquet, it talks about the fate of an era and the fate of a group of people. It is not a meal at all...

Moreover, Lu Chuan is very smart. For movies like "Koke Xili" and "Nanjing! Nanjing!", if you choose a good question that is "not critical", plus the packaging of art film elements, and sincere attitude, it is easy to make yourself invulnerable.

Unfortunately, this time the good subject matter did not allow him to take advantage!

Lu Tianming obviously knows what Lu Chuan is worried about recently.

Alas, my son is incompetent, and I have to end up!

Therefore, an article titled "The Hazards of Monopoly Screening to the Development of Films" was released.

"Recently, a movie called "Those Years" was released. It won nearly 150 million yuan in three days, which can be said to have swept the box office. We will not evaluate the quality of this movie for now. Just watch the volume of the screening, which makes me hate this movie!

All five movies are being released, why can "Those Years" get 50% of the screening volume?

Have you ever considered the feelings of other movies when theaters are scheduled in this way?

It is said that now is a market economy and free competition, but you have not provided an opportunity for free competition from the beginning, which is wrong!

The United States has the Paramount Act, but our country does not. I think this is a pity. I think the relevant practitioners of our films can learn from this. I call on relevant units to issue official documents to restrict such behaviors that dominate the world!"

By the way, Lu Tianming’s blog is very famous.

In the "Han-Bai Fight", Lu Tianming, as Bai Huohua's friend, wanted to show off and argue with Han Shao, but was so angry that he almost broke out with a heart attack after a few words from Han Shao. Although it had been three years since the incident, Lu Tianming still had a reputation.

His blog has just been released, and a bunch of comments appear immediately.

"Brother Lu is indeed very wise, and I also have this view!"

"Yes, I just think the film market is too chaotic now, it's time to manage it!"
