Chapter 455 This is even faster than the quick shooter
Actually, if you want to say how good the movie "Love Is Not Blind" is, it's not necessarily true.
But no matter what, this movie has left a strong mark in the history of film.
How to say it? ?
The movie "Love Is Not Blind" was released on November 8, 2011. After 4 days of release, the box office successfully exceeded 100 million yuan. In the first week, the box office reached 189 million yuan, becoming the box office champion of the week.
It can be said that this movie was the biggest dark horse at the box office that year, and it was also the most successfully marketed one. It was also the best-selling domestically produced film with a small or medium cost in 2011.
The total box office was 350 million yuan, making it the biggest "dark horse" in the annual box office market and the most popular domestic small- and medium-cost film in 2011.
Of course, the content of the movie is actually nothing compared to today, but it was a phenomenal work in 2011.
kindness.
The phenomenal works mentioned here refer to the magnitude of their success and the fact that they are impossible to replicate.
Yes.
The success of "Love Is Not Blind" is impossible to replicate. As an example of such success with a small investment, if I remember correctly, the previous movie before "Love Is Not Blind" should be "Crazy Stone".
Of course, let’s get back to “Love Is Not Blind”.
Think about it, who was the box office champion in 2011? ?
We talked about it before, it’s the movie “Transformers 3”.
That year, the top five box office movies were "Transformers 3", "Kung Fu Panda 2", "Pirates of the Caribbean", "The Flowers of War", and "The Founding of a Party".
Among the top five box office hits, "Transformers" is the only one that reached 1 billion. As for the other four, except for "Kung Fu Panda" which reached more than 600 million, the remaining three were all over 400 million.
This was the top five box office hits that year.
At the same time, the sixth place is "Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows", with a box office of 400 million, while the "Flying Daggers of Dragon Gate" that follows closely behind is less than 400 million.
The 8th place is none other than "Love Is Not Blind".
That's right.
That year, "Love Is Not Blind" ranked 8th in the annual box office, and the box office of the next two films did not exceed 300 million.
That is to say, such a movie, which seemed to have a production cost of less than 20 million, was able to win a box office of 300 million in 2011. You have to know that it was 2011, not the time when the box office was skyrocketing in the following years.
For this reason, the performance of "Love Is Not Blind" seems even more terrifying.
In short, it can be said that the success of "Love Is Not Blind" is impossible to replicate. Even in the following years, many people thought so.
In fact, the success of this movie can be attributed to the right time, right place, and right people.
The first is the promotion of "Love Is Not Blind". Needless to say, the promotion of "Love Is Not Blind" is really strong and it set a historical record.
The second is the main creator of "Love Is Not Blind".
That year, there was actually a phenomenal TV series before this movie was released, which was "Naked Marriage".
The TV series "Naked Marriage" was a phenomenon at the time, and it immediately got everyone talking about it.
After all, there are quite a lot of classic lines in this TV series.
Of course, the most impressive thing is: "I beg you to marry me. Although I have no car, no money, no house, and no diamond ring, I have a heart that will accompany you until old age!"
At that time, naked marriage was still relatively normal, and many people even thought it was worth risking everything for love.
Love comes first.
House, car, money, none of them are as important as love.
That was in 2011. At that time, everyone thought it was shameful to rely on others for money. At that time, people were not discussing the so-called house, but other aspects of the matter.
It’s nothing like the year 2021, when all there was was houses, houses, and houses.
As for living off one's parents, that is not shameful, it is pride.
It's a kind of pride to have someone to chew on.
There is also the so-called naked marriage.
Stop talking nonsense.
Can love be eaten?
How can you say it's true love if the betrothal gift doesn't start at 200,000?
If there is no house, will you let people live on the street?
No car, how can you not have a car these days???
In short, we can only say that times have changed.
If there were really shameless people who lived off their parents back then, they would have bought several houses and bought cars. But those who refused to live off their parents would have to rely on their parents more if they wanted to buy a house or a car later.
Many times, this is almost a helpless choice.
Individual efforts are insignificant in the course of history.
And many times, if you miss it, you miss it.
This point is basically the same.
It is precisely for this reason that Yu Xiaoshu did not plan to write the script for "Naked Marriage".
Simply put, writing the script for "Naked Marriage" now cannot be said to be a bad thing, because this script can actually be considered to change some situations.
That is to tell everyone, when getting married, never have a naked marriage.
But in 2011, "Naked Marriage" became a huge hit.
It is precisely because of the huge hit of "Naked Marriage" that "Love Is Not Blind" has attracted even more attention.
Because the director is the same person, and the male lead is also the same person.
Of course, Wen Zhang was indeed the big winner that year. Of course, before that, he had already established his influence with the TV series "Snow Leopard", not to mention the later hit "Naked Marriage".
In that year, Bai Baihe was actually just said to look like Wang Luodan. As for her representative work, she didn't have one. However, the movie "Love Is Not Blind" made her famous.
More importantly, this movie "Love Is Not Blind" made Bai Baihe the first person to star in chick flicks.
The later films "The Stolen Five Years" and "Go Away Tumor" both received very good reviews and box office results.
Of course, both Wen Zhang and Bai Baihe went downhill due to personal reasons.
As for whether there will be a strong rebound in the future, no one can say for sure.
In the entertainment industry, sometimes it doesn’t take ten years, or even just a few years, to see a person’s ups and downs.
Therefore, I will not make any predictions here to avoid being embarrassed.
Of course, many people think that "Love Is Not Blind" is poisonous.
The poisonous ones here refer to the main actors.
Whether it is a movie or a TV series, you can take a look at it carefully. In short, I can’t say that it is all right, but it is indeed pretty fucked up.
Yu Xiaoshu thinks that chick flick is worth filming.
The most important thing is that the script of "Love Is Not Blind" is actually quite normal. Normal here means that the plot of the entire script is normal, and the characters in it are quite down-to-earth.
Unlike some later urban dramas, it seems that all the actors in them are middle class. Apart from bars and cafes, they all live in high-rise buildings. There are absolutely no poor people in them.
There are no poor people.
This is the biggest problem with urban dramas, and it is also the reason why Yu Xiaoshu does not like these urban dramas.
To be honest, "Home Sweet Home" is a real reality drama.
Of course, "Snail House" is quite real, and it can even be said to be the earliest prophet. If some people had watched "Snail House" early and bought a house in advance, they could have saved at least ten years of hard work.
By the way, the director of “Home Sweet Home” is also this person.
Then, this director later made the movie "Shanghai Fortress".
Well, those who understand will understand.
This also explains why people in the entertainment industry think that there is no such thing as a hundred kinds of red.
No matter how successful any movie or TV series is, they have all suffered setbacks.
This is not only true for the Earth, but also for the planet Metastar.
This is exactly the case. Many people feel that even if Yu Xiaoshu has really stood up, even if everything he writes has been popular in the past three years, everyone still feels that Yu Xiaoshu might really fall at any time.
kindness.
There are really so many people who feel this way.
In fact, everyone has been waiting for Yu Xiaoshu to fall since the first year.
They are all good guys.
Yu Xiaoshu is getting stronger every year, but everyone still believes that you, Yu Xiaoshu, will definitely fall.
Some people even use the Soviet Union as an example.
Of course, it’s not just Su Dong, Luo Yuan is also used as an example.
These people are talking about "Su Dong and Luo Yuan were so great in the past, but what happened in the end?"
In the end, isn't it still continuing?
What a great guy.
Su Dong and Luo Yuan both wanted to ask: "Are you guys polite?"
Originally, Li Zijing also felt that Yu Xiaoshu would sooner or later run out of talent.
This is not disrespect to Yu Xiaoshu. On the contrary, the market is always changing, and when people reach a certain age, if you want to learn something, you may even be resistant to some things.
This is quite normal.
Precisely because of this, Li Zijing was somewhat disappointed with his idol Sun Qi, but he also understood it. After all, Sun Qi is so old, it is normal for him to reject new things.
And what about Yu Xiaoshu???
Yu Xiaoshu is now at the peak of his career as a screenwriter, but who can guarantee that in a few years, when the market changes, Yu Xiaoshu can still keep up with the market? ?
Of course.
That’s for later.
After talking with Yu Xiaoshu, Li Zijing left his office, and other people arranged for Li Zijing to join the company.
Currently, several directors of Baiqian Media are quite busy, so Li Zijing is the only one who has no time.
Of course, it’s not quite accurate to say that Li Zijing is an idler.
Although his first movie "I Really Came From Across Time" hardly needs any publicity and roadshows now, it must be said that the show is still in theaters.
Some publicity still needs to be done.
Especially today, some media wanted to interview Li Zijing about his joining the company.
Li Zijing was not going to accept this at first, but Yu Xiaoshu just asked him to be interviewed, and not just to be interviewed, but to tell the media that he was preparing a movie next.
What Li Zijing didn't expect was that Yu Xiaoshu's script would appear as soon as he said it.
Since this was the case, Li Zijing accepted an interview with the reporter and told him about this matter.
This reporter's manuscript came out quite quickly.
The interview transcript was released in the afternoon.
"Oh my god, Li Zijing's next drama has already been confirmed, and it's said to be an urban romance drama."
"A romance drama? Could it be a sequel?"
"How is that possible? Li Zijing has already said that there will be no sequel to his play. In my opinion, it must be another script written by Yu Xiaoshu for him."
"You know what, this might really be possible. And don't forget that Yu Xiaoshu writes scripts quickly and well."
"But think about it, is the love script written by Yu Xiaoshu worth reading?"
"Why can't I watch it? Yu Xiaoshu was considered a romantic back then."
"You bastard, you're just a scumbag."
…
Wow, no one expected that the topic would go off track while we were chatting.
In short, there is everything to talk about.
Yu Xiaoshu was writing the script for "Love Is Not Blind" in the office.
How to say it? ?
The plot of this drama is not complicated.
It tells the story of the heroine Huang Xiaoxian's 33 days from the time she suffered a broken heart to the time she came out of the psychological haze.
Of course, it's quite melodramatic, after all, the heroine's boyfriend is having an affair with her best friend.
But it’s normal when you think about it.
Such things are not uncommon in reality.
Having affairs with best friends and sleeping with brothers' girlfriends are even more outrageous than what is shown in movies and TV dramas.
After roughly writing a simple script, Yu Xiaoshu called Li Zijing before leaving get off work.
"Teacher Yu, you are looking for me."
Li Zijing came to the office, knocked on the door and asked.
"Take a look at this first."
Yu Xiaoshu said as he handed the script to Li Zijing.
Script: Love Is Not Blind.
Plot summary: "High-end wedding planner Huang Xiaoxian never dreamed that her boyfriend Lu Ran, with whom she had been in love for seven years, would end up together with her best friend Feng Jiaqi. This is something she, who has always been mean and strong, cannot tolerate.
But the world will not stop because of someone's lovelorn. Huang Xiaoxian had to face the pressure of work while facing emotional frustration. However, during this period without love, Huang Xiaoxian discovered many things that she would never have noticed before, such as that the sissy colleague Wang Xiaojian who always confronted her was not that annoying, and what was the principle of the combination of a diamond bachelor and a woman from Henan with a Hong Kong and Taiwan accent, and the secret of how to get to a golden wedding. "
…
Li Zijing was a little surprised when looking at the script.
He never thought that Yu Xiaoshu would give him a script so quickly.
And it is obvious that Yu Xiaoshu just wrote this after asking himself.
No wonder.
No wonder.
Li Zijing is really convinced now.
Originally, the outside world's evaluation of Yu Xiaoshu and the quickshooter Li Zijing felt that it was a bit exaggerated.
Now it seems that this is not expanding at all.
Just today, after talking to myself for half an hour, I immediately wrote this script.
Isn't this a quick shooter?
And this is even faster than the quick shooter.
Half an hour later, Li Zijing said to Yu Xiaoshu excitedly, "Teacher Yu, do you want me to direct this script?"
