Chapter 383 Dark Horse, Recognized (Please Subscribe to Monthly Tickets)
Imperial Capital, Yi Yang Cinema, Harvest Hall.
"I am dying of laughter, hahahaha, why does this Li Chenggong look like a bullied young wife?"
"I think so too. It's really unlucky."
"If I were Li Chenggong, I would probably also be mentally broken."
…
There were about 600 people in the Harvest Hall, and they all burst into laughter after seeing the scene in the hotel.
It's really funny.
In the Harvest Hall, Zhao Yunzhan glanced at the time.
1:07.
The movie had already started at 1:07, and Zhao Yunzhan noticed that there had been several bursts of laughter throughout the theater. Although he did not count them specifically, the laughter proved one thing: Lost on Journey was a qualified Spring Festival movie.
I don't know when it started, but the Spring Festival period has started to focus on blockbuster movies, with big productions, big actors, and big scenes, and the production costs are often heading for 1 billion.
In short, these were all brought from overseas.
This is the current situation overseas, with blockbuster production and assembly lines.
But abroad is abroad, and domestic is domestic.
If you blindly follow how round the moon is in foreign countries, or even copy foreign assembly lines, then in the end you will just be imitating something. Not only will your soldiers be dissatisfied, but you may even be completely defeated.
Think about it, isn’t this the case with some of the great directors on earth?
The big production ended up being a complete flop.
This is what happened on Earth, and it has not happened on Yuanxing yet.
What everyone currently advocates is that blockbusters are still king.
Just look at this year's Spring Festival movie schedule and you'll know.
Let’s not talk about this. Many people also believe that the success of the movie "Let the Bullets Fly" is due to the fact that it is a blockbuster.
After all, with two best actor and best actress, plus the rest of the cast, isn’t this a blockbuster movie?
Therefore, everyone believes that only movies with large production, huge investment and a large number of stars will be successful.
That's exactly why many people think that the movie "Lost on Journey" will definitely flop.
Because the production cost, production cycle, and investment are all too small.
Look at the cast of Lost on Journey. Isn’t it relatively small?
Lin Feiyang, Ding Ge, what are these two people? ?
Lin Feiyang is well-known in the online drama circle, but he seems to have only filmed one TV drama "Little Farewell".
As for Dingge, there is no need to mention it.
Ding Ge became famous overnight with "Soldier Assault", but what really made "Soldier Assault" played by Ding Ge famous was the character Xu Sanduo.
Many people now call Ding Ge Xu Sanduo when they see him.
But after "Let the Bullets Fly", everyone started calling Ding Ge Liu Ye.
Yes.
Sixth Master.
Liu Ye's death was both heroic and aggrieved.
Even now, although Let the Bullets Fly has been released for more than three months, many people still think that this movie is quite explosive, and many people still say: "How many bowls of noodles did you eat?"
How many bowls of noodles did you eat?
This is still a topic that many people discuss frequently.
It is precisely because of this that when people see Ding Ge, they either call him Xu Sanduo or Liu Ye. But how much box office appeal do you think he has? ?
That's not necessarily the case.
After all, Dingge only has a few hundred thousand fans on his social media platform.
Apart from Ding Ge and Lin Feiyang, the rest of the leading actors in "Lost on Journey" are basically newcomers, with the exception of Zhou Xiaozhi. But with such a lineup, it is basically a real low-budget movie.
This low-cost film competes with six other films.
Of course, no one is optimistic.
Just like Pang Yunfei, the director of "Let the Bullets Fly" who was very unhappy before. He originally thought that his "Return of the Dragon" could become the biggest winner during the National Day holiday, but it was all messed up by Yu Xiaoshu.
That's exactly the case. Pang Yunfei could be said to hate Yu Xiaoshu to death.
It is also because of this that Pang Yunfei in this "Lost on Journey" has already turned weird early on.
This is not just because of the National Day period, because one of the six martial arts movies released during the Spring Festival was produced by Pang Yunfei.
Well, he is a great director after all.
It's normal to produce some movies.
This is also the reason why Pang Yunfei chose the National Day holiday for "The Return of the Dragon". After all, it is stupid to compete with yourself.
Pang Yunfei never thought that Yu Xiaoshu was so productive. The National Day period just ended and they have to compete for the Spring Festival period again.
Pang Yunfei didn’t care much about “Lost on Journey”. He even felt that he would not fall into the same trap twice.
If such a hastily made movie can beat the martial arts film he produced.
Then Pang Yunfei might as well just quit the circle.
Zhao Yunzhan had watched the movie produced by Pang Yunfei before and gave some suggestions. He felt that the martial arts movie was indeed not good. Both the quality and the acting skills of the actors were very good, but the script was a bit bad.
Yes.
The script is a bit inconsistent.
Logically speaking, martial arts novels should be thrilling and thrilling, but this one is a bit bloody. To be precise, the heroine's family was killed when she was young, and she was the only one who survived. She wanted revenge, and on the way she met the hero. It turned out that the hero was the enemy's son. But in fact, the hero is not the enemy's biological son, and the hero's biological parents were also killed by the enemy.
Treat the thief as your father.
This is the current situation of the male protagonist, and his enemy even calculated to make the male protagonist believe that his biological parents were killed by the female protagonist.
In this plot, there are the second female lead, the second male lead, the third female lead, and the third male lead, and everything revolves around bloody emotions.
This can finally be said to be the real economic nonsense.
In short, in Zhao Yunzhan's opinion, except for the bad script, all other aspects are acceptable.
But if the script is not good, then it will really become the biggest flaw.
Of course, Zhao Yunzhan simply put forward some suggestions. After all, whether it was the producer Pang Yunfei, the director Xu Gang, or the screenwriter Huang Ming and others, they were all from the Beijing circle, and naturally they would not listen to Zhao Yunzhan's opinions.
To be precise, some small opinions can still be listened to, but Zhao Yunzhan directly said that there was something wrong with the script and that the movie had too many flaws.
Regardless of whether these people will listen to him or not, Zhao Yunzhan’s EQ must be very low to do this.
Therefore, Zhao Yunzhan only made some suggestions out of politeness.
I remember Pang Yunfei said that the biggest rival of this movie is that disaster blockbuster.
But now.
Less than 10 minutes into "Lost on Journey", Zhao Yunzhan felt that Pang Yunfei might fail again.
This movie might actually have the potential to be a dark horse.
A dark horse does not necessarily mean it will win the box office.
Dark horse refers to making a small investment to win big, using small production to actually snatch some food from the mouths of some big sharks.
This is the real dark horse.
Yuanxing hasn't had many dark horses in recent years.
Think about why "Let the Bullets Fly" is not called a dark horse? ?
Isn’t it because the production of this movie is also very impressive? ?
But to be honest, after watching the movie now, Zhao Yunzhan feels that the cost of this movie probably won’t be too high.
Keep reading.
Zhao Yunzhan turned his gaze back to the movie. He wanted to see how embarrassing things would get between Li Chenggong and Niu Dan next.
On the ferry, Niu Dan and Li Chenggong discovered the female scammer again.
After a long chase, the two finally caught up with the female swindler.
But the situation is different from what everyone thinks.
It turned out that the female scammer and her boyfriend were both art teachers and had adopted some orphans. However, on the way to buy oil paints for the children, they had a car accident. The boyfriend died and the female scammer's face was disfigured.
kindness.
This scene makes people feel complicated.
You say she is not a liar, but she is indeed trying to cheat people out of money.
But you say she is a liar, and the money she cheated was actually used to support orphans.
This is the same in our society. People are divided into good and evil, but sometimes how can good and evil be separated so easily?
And what happens next is even funnier.
Because he felt sorry for these children, Li Chenggong gave all his money to them. Then he had only 4 yuan left in his pocket. As a result, he and Niu Dan each bought a lottery ticket.
Won first prize.
The two people felt very happy, but while driving, they overturned the car.
Li Chenggong said that he no longer hated Niu Dan because he was used to it.
At this time, it is only 5 minutes away from New Year.
I definitely won’t be able to go home for the New Year.
The two of them decided to spend the New Year here.
Li Chenggong finally began to reflect. To be precise, it was not a reflection, but he began to talk about his life.
This statement actually touched many people in the cinema.
What do you think is success?
How much money is considered earning?
The next plot is the ending stage.
Li Chenggong and Niu Dan finally returned to Xingcheng. Then Li Chenggong and Niu Dan bought new clothes together and then said goodbye.
However, what Li Chenggong did not expect was that he actually met his mistress.
It turned out that the mistress said she had already looked for his home.
And it was not until this moment that Li Chenggong finally panicked.
But in the end, Xiao San just left him a letter.
Breakup letter.
It turned out that the mistress had been following his wife for two days. In fact, his wife had already discovered it during these two days, but she didn't say anything. The mistress finally realized that she was just a naive girl.
And the mistress also knew that it was time for her to quit.
Just go home.
Originally Li Chenggong wanted to say something to his wife, but his wife only said four words.
Just go home.
This is truly a good wife and mother.
Many people in the theater were dissatisfied.
"Fuck, why would Li Chenggong cheat on his wife when he has such a good wife?"
"Nimma, this Li Chenggong has such a good wife and his mistress is also so good, it's simply unfair."
"Can I say that I'm really a little dissatisfied? Damn, why was he so nice in the end?"
…
Well, anyway, there are dissatisfactions and so on.
But no matter what, Li Chenggong really seems like a winner in life.
The scene changes and Niu Dan gets the debt.
“I just said there are many good people.”
Niu Dan said with a smile.
"What??"
The person who gave him the money was a little confused.
“Happy new book.”
After Niu Dan finished speaking, he turned around and called Li Chenggong: "Hey, boss, I got the money."
"Oh? Really? Congratulations."
Li Chenggong, who was sitting in the car, said with a smile: "There is true love in the world. OK, I'll wait for you to have dinner tonight. Happy New Year."
As soon as he hung up the phone, the person who gave Niu Dan the money actually came to the car.
…
"Oh my god, that's how it is."
"This Li Chenggong is really good from this perspective."
"Yes, I didn't expect that."
…
When everyone saw this, they were also suddenly enlightened.
Then the scene changed.
Still on the plane.
"Hey, boss."
Niu Geng, dressed in a suit, arrived late, and then smiled excitedly when he saw Li Chenggong.
The movie officially ends here.
Next are some highlights from the movie.
There are also random interviews on the way.
It's just some editing from the previous short film.
Basically, we all want to go home.
Whether you have money or not, go home for the New Year.
It sets the atmosphere quite beautifully.
"Don't rush to leave, don't rush to leave."
Just when the first show at Daxing Cinema had just ended, there were still staff members who wanted everyone to cast a vote.
Do you think Lost on Journey is funny or not?
This is not data statistics done by the cinema, on the contrary, it was done by Zhang Haotian.
Because he has a close relationship with Daxing Cinemas, today not only first-tier cities, but also second-tier, third-tier and fourth-tier cities, as long as there is a Daxing Cinemas, basically all of them took part in the vote.
Yu Xiaoshu and Zhou Xiaozhi were also preparing to fill out the form.
"Teacher Yu, you are Teacher Yu..."
Suddenly, someone recognized Yu Xiaoshu.
"It's really Teacher Yu."
"Yes, it's Teacher Yu."
…
In an instant, everyone gathered around.
At this time, everyone quickly picked up their phones and prepared to record.
There is no way.
Yu Xiaoshu is indeed more famous now.
Although he is a screenwriter and has not yet branched out into other fields, he is just a director who made "Let the Bullets Fly", but because his personal style is too obvious, many people think that no matter what, it is his work.
This situation is actually very normal.
As long as you are in it, this work is yours and the label is also you.
The others are all supporting roles.
Therefore, Yu Xiaoshu could only take photos with everyone one by one, thank everyone for their support, and of course, remind everyone to fill out the form.
As a result, the audience felt that they had made a good deal as they could actually take a photo with Yu Xiaoshu.
Then Yu Xiaoshu asked everyone to take a group photo together because the next show would be scheduled for the theater soon.
At the same time, on the other side, Zhao Yunzhan took another ticket. He decided to watch the movie produced by Pang Yunfei again. Of course, the main purpose was to see the audience's reaction.
As for Xiang Fei, he felt that it was a great opportunity to have a rest in Dancheng, so he bought a ticket early.
Watch these movies during the Spring Festival one after another.
In fact, at this time, the first wave of online movie reviews had already come out.
Of the two animations, there is nothing much to say about the family-friendly one, it is the same every year. As for the one known as the light of Chinese animation, its reputation has collapsed.
How to say it?
Everyone was really looking forward to this movie before, and the trailers looked pretty good.
result? ?
The best bits are all in the fucking trailer.
It's enough to make people so angry that they want to curse to death.
At the same time, the other four blockbusters are different.
Next.
Let’s talk slowly.
Don't worry.
