Chapter 497 Yu Xiaoshu is doomed to lose
"Lost in Thailand" grossed over 300 million yuan in just three days. Such a box office result is definitely not comparable to Yu Xiaoshu's previous films. This is why so many people say that this movie of Yu Xiaoshu is a flop.
But is it really a box office flop?
In just three days, it nearly exceeded 300 million.
With such a box office, isn’t the upper limit of Yu Xiaoshu’s failure a bit too high? ?
There are many different opinions on the Internet about "Lost in Thailand", and these discussions are also half and half. Some people think that Yu Xiaoshu has fallen, but there are also people who think that Yu Xiaoshu still maintains a high standard.
Many people said interesting things during the discussion.
On the one hand, some people think that if Yu Xiaoshu's film is considered a flop, then many directors and screenwriters would have dreamed of a flop.
On the other hand, more people look at this matter with high demands and high standards. Some of these people are fans of Yu Xiaoshu. They think how could Mr. Yu fall so low? ?
In their opinion, their teacher Yu should have higher aspirations.
All right.
How to say it? ?
These people have fantasized about a Yu Xiaoshu, and then when this Yu Xiaoshu is not as good as the Yu Xiaoshu in their imagination, they become dissatisfied.
For Yu Xiaoshu, these are all very normal.
Just like some traffic artists, although they take advantage of the so-called fans, but many times these traffic artists will be retaliated by their fans. This is too normal. Moreover, in recent years, not only traffic artists, but also some acting artists are facing this situation.
The fans are too broad.
Strong artists don’t care about their fans’ opinions at all, because some artists understand that in the end, their works will speak for themselves.
As long as you have works, no matter if you have cheated on your wife or stabbed someone in the back, no matter if you have abandoned your wife and children, or even forced someone to have an abortion, as long as you have works and as long as you know how to promote them, you can turn things around.
As long as it is not officially banned, then you don’t have to care.
Works are always the first factor for an artist. Of course, some artists do not need to rely on works, but only need to rely on hype and their appearance in variety shows.
This is the domestic entertainment industry. It is no wonder that some people say that domestic entertainment is dead. After all, the current domestic entertainment industry is abnormal. Although people have been saying that traffic has been dead for many years, everyone can think about it. Is the current domestic entertainment industry really just about traffic artists? ?
No.
The entire domestic entertainment system today has problems, and this problem cannot be solved unless it is dealt with thoroughly.
It is useless to rely solely on Yu Xiaoshu and Baiqian Media.
People have been talking about the so-called winter of the film and television industry for several years, but for Yu Xiaoshu, he feels that the winter of the film and television industry is far from coming, and a group of domestic entertainment companies like this should die.
It is said that without destruction there is no construction.
All Yu Xiaoshu can do is to accumulate wealth step by step. He wants to reshape domestic entertainment after its demise.
This is not something that can be done in one or two years.
Yu Xiaoshu cannot repair the sky with one hand, what he needs now is to prepare multiple ways, movies, TV series, and variety shows, to walk on three legs.
Of course, in addition to these three legs, Yu Xiaoshu must make some other preparations.
For example, songs, for example, literature.
IP needs to be laid slowly.
Yu Xiaoshu can wait.
He is still young.
He even thought that the domestic entertainment industry would just die quickly. He believed that judging from the current situation, the domestic entertainment industry would not die in the short term, and it was likely that not only would it not die, but on the contrary, it might even last for a long time.
Some people can definitely make money in this market.
One type of people are like Yu Xiaoshu, who are honest and diligent in creating content, and then rely on the content to achieve success.
One type of people are those who engage in traffic economy and directly make money by cutting leeks, which is what many people do.
Look at how many people are saying that traffic is dead, but if you look at some of the current situations on the Internet, you will know that in fact traffic is not dead in many cases, and as long as there are such fans, traffic will not die.
There is one thing these fans always like to do, and that is wanting to control people.
To put it bluntly, as long as there are such fans and such a market, traffic artists will never die out.
Moreover, in recent years, on the one hand, everyone is shouting that traffic is dead, but on the other hand, it seems that the soil for traffic is gradually growing stronger.
Let’s talk about controlling reviews, at first only popular artists controlled reviews, but what about now? ?
Some veteran actors, some actors who obviously have acting skills, also started to control the comments.
The reason is simple.
This is internal competition. Other celebrities have thousands of comments and thousands of reposts, but your data is rubbish, with only a few hundred reposts and a few hundred comments.
Do you think this is embarrassing?
It's not just embarrassing. For some advertisers and commercial performances, do you think they will use good data or bad data?
When water injection becomes the norm, no one can be immune to it.
But what Yu Xiaoshu has to do is to keep himself out of trouble.
In the past few years, the artists under Baiqian Media have not engaged in any comment control, any false propaganda, and have not even established any fan clubs.
Obviously, Yu Xiaoshu thinks it is not necessary.
He doesn't need to do this, and the artists in his company don't need to do this even more.
As for those who want to change them, want to manipulate public opinion, and want to set up fan clubs to change them, Yu Xiaoshu has only three words to describe these people.
Don't spoil.
That's exactly what happened. When more and more people came to comment on Yu Xiaoshu, and even when some people said that Yu Xiaoshu had changed, Yu Xiaoshu finally posted an article 25 days after "Lost in Thailand" was released.
After all, it has been released for 25 days, and the box office has been a bit stagnant at this time. So at this time, Yu Xiaoshu is naturally making a response on the one hand, and on the other hand, he wants to use this response to increase the presence of "Lost in Thailand".
Of course, it doesn’t really mean much.
After all, the potential of this movie has come to an end.
In such an unpopular schedule as August, and in an environment where "Lost in Thailand" received mixed reviews, it still grossed nearly 700 million yuan in 25 days. What's there to be dissatisfied about?
Yu Xiaoshu's response today was somewhat explosive.
This is understandable.
After all, to be honest, Yu Xiaoshu has really tolerated these people for a long time.
What’s going on???
Of course, you have the right to like or dislike a work, and it doesn't matter how you criticize it.
But what's this bad habit of his that makes him want to change it all the time?
Or, who gave you the confidence?
Just for that reason, Yu Xiaoshu simply opened up and started firing today.
No, that can’t be considered firing a cannon.
In fact, Yu Xiaoshu was quite restrained when writing this article. Most of the time, he was just reinterpreting some of his original ideas and things.
I, I am Yu Xiaoshu, I will repay kindness and revenge, an eye for an eye and a tooth for a tooth.
I, Yu Xiaoshu, was born with a stubborn character and I cannot learn to bend down.
I, Yu Xiaoshu, just want to keep persisting in doing what I think is right.
This is Yu Xiaoshu.
He will not let others interrupt his thoughts when he lives his second life. More importantly, in his previous life, there were some things Yu Xiaoshu wanted to do but couldn't do, some things he could only compromise on, and more often he had to do things that went against his conscience.
But this life is different.
First of all, Yu Xiaoshu has the entire entertainment wealth behind him. Some of these may be outdated, but some are the essence of the essence. Only with these entertainment wealth can Yu Xiaoshu remain undefeated.
Remaining undefeated does not mean you will be undefeated forever.
Yu Xiaoshu doesn't care whether he loses or not, but just because he doesn't care doesn't mean that other people don't care. The people at Baiqian Media have always believed that Yu Xiaoshu will not lose. Yes, in Baiqian Media's eyes, Yu Xiaoshu is a god.
After all, Yu Xiaoshu has never failed over the years.
But other black fans have been expecting Yu Xiaoshu to lose. They believe that Yu Xiaoshu cannot remain undefeated forever. Looking at the entire entertainment industry, no matter whether it is a screenwriter, director, actor, or singer, no one can stay popular forever.
See how once popular actors became outdated later? ?
Many times, becoming out of fashion is not a slow process, but rather a matter of a moment.
Sometimes, some actors are the protagonists in one movie, and then fail in the next one in an instant, and may even quit the entertainment industry next.
But for creators, sometimes it's just the opposite. Many screenwriters just have one book flop, then another, and then another, and so on, and they become out of fashion in an instant.
Think about it, Yu Xiaoshu was once a popular platinum screenwriter, and the youngest platinum screenwriter, but how miserable was his failure later? ?
Many people think that if Yu Xiaoshu can fail once, then he can definitely fail a second time.
How do you say that?
The higher you stand now, the harder you will fall in the future.
Just like the platinum screenwriter Luo Yuan, isn't it? ?
He was so powerful back then that people called him "Old Luo", and in the circle he was a figure who could shock people three times with just a stomp of his feet.
What is the result now? ?
After his first failure, and then his next failure, there are almost no more people like him in the circle.
This is the cruel reality.
For this reason, many people believe that Yu Xiaoshu will definitely fail in the future.
Yu Xiaoshu actually expected this.
After all, he couldn't guarantee that the script he created would really fit in with this world. Exactly like that, Yu Xiaoshu thought that if it really flopped, then it didn't matter.
Learning is the only way to progress, right?
But he thought so and did so, but other people didn't think so.
For example, the box office of "Lost in Thailand" this time, everyone thinks that compared with the box office of Yu Xiaoshu's previous films, this is much less, right? ?
So people went to see "Lost in Thailand" because of their trust in Yu Xiaoshu, which is a waste of everyone's trust.
Just like the director Qi Xin in the past, he directed countless classic works, but at that time because no one went to the cinema, the promotion at that time was that everyone owed Qi Xin a movie ticket.
There is actually nothing wrong with saying this, after all, that’s what everyone thought at the beginning.
But what no one expected was that Qi Xin seemed to have suddenly lost her sensitivity to the market. Since 2014, Qi Xin's works have been getting worse and worse. Although the box office seems to be okay, they have lost their reputation.
From the very beginning, everyone had to support and watch the movies directed by Qi Xin, and many people even said that they owed Qi Xin a movie ticket. Now, when Qi Xin's works come out, many people say: I don't owe him anything anymore.
Just like this, Qi Xin's reputation is gradually collapsing, especially the "Visitors in the Mountains" directed by Qi Xin in 2022, which is even more popular in terms of reputation and box office.
Under such circumstances, no one is willing to pay Qi Xin anymore.
The audience can give you one chance, can give you two chances, but will never give you three chances.
After all, the audience is not stupid. Besides, no one’s money comes from Dafeng, right? ?
For this reason, Qi Xin has not directed a movie since "The Visitor from the Mountains". It's not that he has no chance to direct, but on the contrary, he also has to save face.
With a series of flops, Qi Xin has almost completely ruined his reputation. After all, Qi Xin is not short of money, so he decided not to direct movies for the time being.
In this respect, Qi Xin and Su Dong are somewhat similar.
It’s because they are no longer familiar with the market. Precisely because of this, they have all chosen to calm down.
But how to explain it? ?
Sedimentation often basically means disappearance.
In the market, if you can’t keep up, you are doomed to be eliminated.
There are too many examples in this regard.
Yu Xiaoshu did not specifically point to anything in this article. He just wanted everyone to understand that he will continue on the path he has chosen. And he knows that many people will leave along the way, so he can only apologize.
Don't try to change me.
If you like me, please continue to support me.
If you don’t like me, then let’s just forget about each other. When you like the work I wrote, then come back to support me.
We are all adults, so it’s better to be straightforward.
Okay.
The discussion about "Lost in Thailand" on the Internet had almost reached its peak, but now it has been stirred up again because of Yu Xiaoshu's article.
That's Yu Xiaoshu, a typical stubborn person.
You are so stubborn.
Why are you being so stubborn?
This means that Yu Xiaoshu is panicking.
Because the box office of "Lost in Thailand" was a flop for Yu Xiaoshu.
Everyone's first reaction to the article posted by Yu Xiaoshu was: "Yu Xiaoshu is anxious, he is anxious, he is anxious."
Then everyone discussed it and finally came to a conclusion.
That means Yu Xiaoshu is doomed to lose.
