Chapter 545: Riding away from the crowd, too undignified
"Oh my god, the only one who can defeat Yu Xiaoshu is Yu Xiaoshu."
“Who said it wasn’t true? I never thought that The Wandering Earth would be able to break 500 million yuan in box office revenue on the third day?”
"The single-day box office exceeded 500 million. This is really unexpected."
“What else can I say except “The Wandering Earth” is awesome???”
"Comrades, I have a bold idea. Do you think it is possible for The Wandering Earth to break 600 million in a single day?"
"I originally thought this was impossible, but when I thought about the fact that this was Yu Xiaoshu's work, and the current reputation of The Wandering Earth, maybe I could really create a miracle."
"Yu Xiaoshu has always been making the impossible possible, so I choose to believe in Yu Xiaoshu."
…
Obviously, no one went to bed. Everyone was waiting for the box office chart data to be updated in the early morning. It was precisely because everyone was waiting for the box office chart data in the early morning that the data network crashed.
But this is the advantage of staying up late, you can always get first-hand information.
Xiang Fei was a little confused after breaking the single-day box office record of 500 million for "The Wandering Earth".
It’s not simple, Xiang Fei is really confused.
For Xiang Fei, he wondered whether the single-day box office of "The Wandering Earth" could break 500 million.
But after comprehensive consideration, Xiang Fei felt that the possibility was too low, almost impossible.
After all, the Lunar New Year holiday has already reached its third day, and given that many people have similar feelings after watching it, it is already a remarkable thing that "The Wandering Earth" can maintain a box office of 400 million.
As a result, Xiang Fei still underestimated the explosive power of "The Wandering Earth".
On the third day of the Lunar New Year holiday, The Wandering Earth’s single-day box office exceeded 500 million yuan.
Following closely behind is Guo Han's "One Life", with a single-day box office of 210 million yuan.
At the same time, "Rescue" had a single-day box office of 170 million yuan.
As for the movie "The World's Number One", its single-day box office shrank again, leaving only 70 million.
That's right.
The box office of "The World's Number One" took a big dive in just three days.
The box office on the first day was 370 million, on the second day it was 190 million, and on the third day it was only 70 million.
As for the movie "Blind Date", it came from behind and its single-day box office exceeded 100 million on the third day.
If we look at it from a macro perspective, except for "The Wandering Earth" and "Blind Date", the box office of other movies have all been declining, and only these two movies have reversed the decline.
However, Xiang Fei did not put too much thought on the movie "Blind Date". Obviously Xiang Fei was not a fool. He knew why the movie "Blind Date" was good. For this reason, he did not want to say too much.
There is nothing worth considering.
Now, he just wants to report on "The Wandering Earth".
In just three days, "The Wandering Earth" has earned 1.28 billion yuan, which has already set a new record for the fastest box office performance during the Lunar New Year holiday.
There are still 4 days left for the Lunar New Year holiday.
Xiang Fei wanted to know what kind of miracles "The Wandering Earth" could create in these four days? ?
For this reason, Xiang Fei wrote in his manuscript, "The Wandering Earth is about to become a benchmark in Chinese film history. How many more records can it create in film history?"
In this article, Xiang Fei of course praised "The Wandering Earth" again.
This is not too much.
In fact, to be honest, Xiang Fei has watched "The Wandering Earth" almost three times. He is familiar with all the foreshadowings and other small plots in "The Wandering Earth".
He feels that watching this movie can truly help people understand the value of peace.
At any time, peace and safety is the most important thing.
Many times, no one knows which will come first, tomorrow or an accident. Sometimes, maybe you just got off work, maybe you just got out of school, or maybe you just want to go out for a walk from home, and then suddenly an accident happens.
There are too many unpredictable factors.
Take "The Wandering Earth" for example. At first, no one took it seriously, until the end when everyone realized that the end of the world was coming.
A good movie is often not just about the protagonist. Take "The Wandering Earth" for example. The character of Han Ziang is very three-dimensional. If we follow the timeline of the show, Han Ziang is actually a post-90s generation, and the youngest generation of post-90s.
As he grew up, not only was the class structure stratified, but everyone only cared about money.
In short, laugh at the poor but not at prostitutes.
House, car, money, basically everyone is looking at these three things.
Many people seem to be rushing forward as if they were stepping on the accelerator. No one dares to stop for a moment, and involution has reached its extreme.
But when the real disaster struck, Han Ziang realized how precious every little bit of his past was.
An ordinary life is ordinary, but living an ordinary life is already lucky enough.
When you are hungry and your lover makes you a bowl of noodles, even if the noodles are very salty, you will still be happy.
As long as home is there, everything is there.
As long as we have family, nothing can bring us down.
This is the success of "The Wandering Earth", or it can be said that Xiang Fei had a strong sense of immersion when watching this movie. He himself was born in the 90s, and he has many girls that he has saved for a long time. Maybe when the end of the world really comes, he will also save all the girls.
That's going too far.
In Xiang Fei's view, the real core of "The Wandering Earth" is that the Earth is our home, and our family is in this home. We will not give up the Earth, nor will we give up our family, so "The Wandering Earth" is about wandering with the Earth.
It has both the romance of the East and the inherent traditions of the East.
For this reason, Xiang Fei hopes that more people can watch "The Wandering Earth". He even wonders if the promotion is more aggressive, will the box office of "The Wandering Earth" be pushed higher? ? ?
Film critics like Xiang Fei all think so.
They are all hoping that "The Wandering Earth" can take off again.
As for the media, they are a little more clickbait.
The media has already begun congratulating "The Wandering Earth".
With a single-day box office of over 500 million, "The Wandering Earth" is certainly worthy of congratulations.
The next day, "The Wandering Earth" topped the hot search list, which came as no surprise to anyone. In fact, you can no longer see any marketing or publicity on this hot search list.
Because this is all self-published.
Now, three days after the Lunar New Year holiday, "One World" has surpassed "The Rescue" to take the second place in total box office.
You have to say that the box office of "The Rescue" is not bad. In three days, the total box office of this movie has reached nearly 700 million. If it really waits until the end of the Lunar New Year holiday, this movie may be able to reach 2 billion.
This is considered very strong.
It is not easy for a movie to break 2 billion during the Lunar New Year holiday, especially for a science fiction movie. After all, there are endless news reports about the complete death of science fiction movies. Bai Suzhen almost became the savior of science fiction with "Rescue in the End of the World".
That's right.
Just a little bit.
If "The Wandering Earth" had not been released during the Lunar New Year holiday, then Bai Suzhen would definitely have become the savior of science fiction.
But because of the release of "The Wandering Earth", Bai Suzhen has basically become a negative example.
"After watching The Wandering Earth and The Rescue, you will understand why I hate Bai Su Su."
"It's no wonder that Bai Su Su studied in the West for so many years. This script shows the hypocrisy and saintliness of the West to the fullest. I only saw the special effects of "Rescue in the End of the World" and couldn't immerse myself in the whole process."
"I really cried when I watched The Wandering Earth, because the movie was so touching. But when I watched The Rescue, I had a lot of question marks. I felt that the male lead was like an epileptic psychopath, and the female lead was a drag in various ways. The final success was even more meaningless."
…
Take a look.
These are some of the discussions online about the two movies "The Wandering Earth" and "The Rescue" three days after the Lunar New Year holiday.
This discussion is already quite irrational, and it is more like dragging others down than a discussion.
That's right.
It's just pulling down.
Basically, "The Wandering Earth" beat "The Rescue" in every aspect.
Bai Suzhen was completely confused.
Yes.
She was stunned.
At the beginning, Bai Suzhen believed that these so-called single statements on the Internet must be propaganda. She believed in the movie "The Rescue", and even felt that the movie "The Rescue" might become an opportunity for a real science fiction revival.
You have to know that Bai Suzhen is not just a screenwriter, she has been a director, and she is also a person with aspirations. She hopes that this "Apocalypse Rescue" can bring some positive thinking to China.
After that, the premiere of "The Rescue" was quite successful. Bai Suzhen watched the movie "The Wandering Earth". She felt that this movie was not much better than her own "The Rescue".
To be precise, it was Bai Suzhen who didn't like "The Wandering Earth". For some reason, she always felt that there was something slightly out of place in such a movie.
This is because Bai Suzhen has not yet formed a psychological transformation, that is, the Chinese people can also save the world.
All my self-confidence, all my plans for the future, and even all other aspects have collapsed a little bit today.
Many times, it is too difficult to reshape our worldview.
At the beginning, before going abroad, Bai Suzhen had her own three views. Then after going abroad, she felt that everything abroad was good, and she was fooled by the so-called rhetoric abroad, and even began to reflect.
Upon reflection, Bai Suzhen's three views collapsed and were reshaped again.
This time, the three views are formed in a Western way.
This is also why Bai Suzhen was able to write a book like "Rescue at the End of the World".
Bai Suzhen is actually very confident about "Rescue", and she thinks that this movie may be able to top the box office during the Lunar New Year holiday, and then become one of the top three Chinese-language films.
That's right.
Bai Suzhen didn’t think about becoming the champion at first. She was not that arrogant yet. She thought that as long as she could get into the top three, she would win.
But at the moment, this is almost impossible.
Because "The Rescue" has been released for three days, coupled with some contrast with "The Wandering Earth", this has directly led to people becoming more and more dissatisfied with the movie "The Rescue".
It's not just ordinary dissatisfaction.
It's real dissatisfaction.
In recent years, everyone has long been dissatisfied with the so-called Western correctness. In the past, everyone would be PUA'd by the West and then feel that they needed to reflect on themselves.
Now they just go straight at him.
Reflect on you MLGB.
Basically, under such a situation, the reputation of the movie "Rescue" is gradually getting worse, but no matter how bad it is, the level of this movie is still within the passing line, so the box office can be considered to be able to hold on a little.
As for the movie "The Best Under Heaven", it was a complete failure.
In just three days, the box office of "The World's Number One" has already reached more than 600 million yuan. If it's lucky, it might even reach 1 billion yuan.
After all, there are still a few days left before the Lunar New Year holiday, so even if the movie is shortened, there will still be some people watching it.
But how to say it? ?
This movie destroyed Chen Feng's sense of trust.
1 billion. Let’s assume that, if the box office of “Number One Under Heaven” really reaches 1 billion in the end, it is also earned by the popularity that Chen Feng has accumulated over decades.
Word of mouth.
It is extremely difficult to build such a good reputation, but it can collapse in an instant.
This is not.
Currently, most of the audiences of "The World's Number One" are critical, and some fans who like Chen Feng have even said that they will never watch Chen Feng's movies again.
"I used to think that I should cherish people like Chen Feng who have been working hard to make films. I thought he was the embodiment of my dreams. But today, the dream is broken, and Chen Feng has finally fallen into the mortal world."
"I won't say anything else. I just want to say one thing now, that is, I will never watch Chen Feng's movies again."
"Over the years, I would go to watch almost any movie Chen Feng made, because I know that people who work so hard to make movies should be supported, but now, forget it."
"We treat Chen Feng as a god, but Chen Feng treats us as fools. My money didn't come from the wind."
…
Just like that, the reputation of "Number One Under Heaven" has directly declined, and Chen Feng's reputation has also been declining rapidly.
When Chen Feng chose to make this movie, he had actually made his choice.
Director, it’s just to make a living, there’s nothing shameful about it.
But if you make money while thinking you are artistic and looking down on the audience, then that is too disgraceful.
This is the case with Chen Feng now.
This afternoon, when he was doing a roadshow, Chen Feng responded once again to everyone's ridicule and doubts.
The response is quite simple.
Just one sentence.
"The Best in the World" is a good movie that can stand the test of time.
