Chapter 548 If I look at you, I will definitely lose
The roadshow of "The Wandering Earth" at 5 pm on February 4th really exceeded everyone's expectations.
This is the information age.
In the early morning, after the box office figures came out, many people had already started discussing it, and film critics also began to comment.
"The Best in the World" is of course the most discussed one.
After all, the critics of this movie are very angry.
The film critics mentioned here are those who do not have a job to make a living.
You should know that on the day of the release of "The Under Heaven's Number One", a group of film critics were invited to praise the film. These film critics were basically there to make money, which is the norm in the industry.
But you have to know that film critics are not all in it for the sake of making money.
Just like there are still some people with integrity in the domestic entertainment industry, the same is true for film critics, like Su Qing and some others, they are basically not disturbed by money when writing film reviews.
For this reason, "The World's Number One" actually received more criticism on the fourth day of the Lunar New Year.
Especially when Chen Feng mentioned that the audience was garbage, many film critics were the first to criticize him.
The reputation of the movie "The Best Under Heaven" has completely collapsed. The audience's eyes are sharp. If this movie is really good, then how could its reputation collapse so badly?
Because of this, many people think that Chen Feng is too disgraceful.
Of course, there are so many indecent things in the entertainment industry, and what happened to Chen Feng is nothing. But it is precisely because he is Chen Feng that everyone feels devastated.
What does it feel like to have an idol scandal?
This time, many people who claim to be more rational than the fan circle have experienced it.
Then, regarding Chen Feng’s remarks, most people in the entertainment industry were not silent, but supported it instead.
This is interesting.
Sometimes, people tend to take sides without looking at the facts.
Take the movie "The Number One Under Heaven" for example. Any normal person should know after watching it that this is a slightly better movie than a bad movie. It is not a bad movie because after all, the actors are good, and Chen Feng still has some bottom line.
But with such a huge disparity, how could the audience not curse? ?
Then, the audience finds out that these stars or artists are taking sides without any limits, which makes them even more annoyed.
Are you kidding??
Can you die if you say "The World's Number One" sucks?
Chen Feng stated on his social media platform that "The World's Number One" was a brave attempt and that the film would stand the test of time, and then a bunch of people came to flatter him.
Good job.
You don't even care about your face anymore.
So when the video that Yu Shangshu said was released, many people expressed their admiration. Not only admiration, but also great happiness.
"I told you, Yu Xiaoshu is not the type to fool people like this."
"Yes, this is Yu Xiaoshu. It would be nice if there were more Yu Xiaoshus in the domestic entertainment industry."
"Before, I naively thought that Chen Feng would not fall, but I didn't expect Chen Feng to fall directly. So now I don't dare to have too many extravagant expectations for Yu Xiaoshu. I just hope that Yu Xiaoshu can hold on a little longer."
"Okay, I think so too. After all, it's been so many years. Sometimes, we shouldn't have too much hope for anything."
"No, upstairs, don't be so pessimistic. Think about it, over the years, has Yu Xiaoshu ever let us down?"
"No, upstairs, you don't understand. Think about Chen Feng. He has never let us down in decades, but what happened this time?"
"That's why I say, cherish the present moment, and forget about the future. Just cherish the present moment and the miracle that Yu Xiaoshu has brought us."
…
Well, it can be said that Chen Feng and Yu Xiaoshu are completely tied together in this Lunar New Year period.
That’s not the case. It should be said that Yu Xiaoshu is tied to almost every director in this Lunar New Year period.
For example, Yu Xiaoshu and Bai Suzhen, the two were once considered a match made in heaven. Both were outstanding young screenwriters and became famous at a young age. Then, one of them went abroad and became famous, while the other became a nobody in China. Then, one returned to China, while the other rebounded strongly after divorce.
Then, the two of them had a showdown in this year's Lunar New Year movie.
As if it was fate, both of them made science fiction films during the Lunar New Year holiday, and both wanted to bring about a revival of science fiction.
How could it be possible that no one discussed it?
Yu Xiaoshu and Guo Han actually have a lot in common. Guo Han was the youngest platinum online writer at the beginning, and when he switched to screenwriting, he became the youngest platinum screenwriter again. At that time, Guo Han had never failed.
But later, Guo Han's performance in "A Love Affair" flopped. There was only one highlight in this movie, which was the theme song "I Crossed the Ocean to See You". Then many people mocked Guo Han for making a great song out of a bad movie.
But since "Straight Love Affair", Guo Han stood up again with "Boyhood Again" after two flops, and then came "One Life".
In the past three days, the box office of "One Life" has reached 770 million yuan, ranking second in the Lunar New Year holiday season. "One Life" also made a comeback step by step.
After all, at the beginning, "One World" lagged behind "The First Under Heaven" and "The Rescue", and its screening schedule was slightly worse. In fact, the market was more optimistic about "The First Under Heaven" and "The Rescue".
After all, these two films are superior to "The First World" in every aspect.
But in the end, "One World" took the second place with just three days.
Because of this, Yu Xiaoshu and Guo Han have also become more popular.
If there is one remaining director who deserves the title, it would be the movie "Blind Date". After all, it was originally just a cannon fodder movie but it managed to win 100 million at the box office, which is a miracle in itself.
In addition, "Blind Date" is a work with aesthetic isolation, so people will inevitably compare it with "Lost on Journey".
Of course, many people think that "Blind Date" can't create a miracle like "Lost on Journey", but the fact that it can achieve such a result during the Lunar New Year holiday with a small investment is already a miracle in itself.
You see, Yu Xiaoshu’s name is almost always mentioned in the Lunar New Year movie season.
Now, Yu Xiaoshu, who was already at the center of controversy, took the initiative to talk about the "audience garbage theory". The most important thing is that he denied this statement and criticized such behavior.
What does this mean? ?
Yu Xiaoshu didn't even show up in front of Chen Feng.
Not to mention the shock and applause of netizens, the media also reported it.
There is no way.
Yu Xiaoshu is so strong.
Let’s not talk about anything else. If someone else had said this to Chen Feng, he would definitely be accused of disrespecting his seniors.
The entertainment industry has always been about seniority. Putting aside other things, just considering Chen Feng's status in the film industry, Yu Xiaoshu's words have actually violated a major taboo.
As a matter of fact, almost in the evening, several screenwriters had already made criticisms.
"Yu Xiaoshu's words are obviously meant to cater to the market. Doesn't he know what the current market is like? And no matter what, Director Chen Feng is considered his predecessor, right? Besides, is "The World's Number One" really as rubbish as Yu Xiaoshu said?..."
The screenwriter who criticized Yu Xiaoshu is called An Xuan. Thirty years ago, he became a top screenwriter with the drama "Wind and Cloud Chronicles". He then successfully reached platinum status with two sequels. And then, nothing happened.
Yes.
You read that right.
That’s all.
Compared to Yu Xiaoshu, An Xuan is also considered an oddity. Before "Feng Yun Lu", he was not an unknown figure in the screenwriter circle. He had already written several scripts during his college years and his achievements were considered decent. You should know that An Xuan was only 24 years old when he wrote "Feng Yun Lu", so he was considered young and promising.
In fact, if it weren't for Yu Xiaoshu's sudden appearance and Bai Suzhen's stunning appearance, everyone would have been quite optimistic about An Xuan at the beginning. After all, he was still young. But who would have thought that he would run out of ideas even faster than Yu Xiaoshu.
After that, An Xuan became almost like everyone else, basically writing some crappy scripts, but he was Platinum after all, and unlike Yu Xiaoshu, he still had some better connections and knew how to behave, so he could basically make a living.
But it is the entertainment industry after all, and the life here is many times better than that of ordinary people.
Then An Xuan proved that as long as you don't leave the table, there will always be a chance to turn things around in the future.
That’s right, Anxuan successfully turned around in 2014.
Everyone should still remember what year 2014 was.
2014 was the first year of traffic, and almost when the traffic was skyrocketing, An Xuan also discovered a business opportunity, that is, young and handsome men are absolutely harmful to the market, so An Xuan has been criticizing them.
But his criticism was useless at first. After all, it was an era of explosive traffic. How much impact could one person's criticism have? ?
At that time, many people might have thought it was a good thing.
Then, three years later, everyone gradually felt that this was no longer acceptable, but An Xuan was still criticizing it.
kindness.
At this time, An Xuan began to gradually become popular because he was the only person who criticized the young idol for almost three years.
So, the young and handsome actors have traffic, and An Xuan has traffic by criticizing the young and handsome actors.
Of course, he doesn't just criticize himself, he also has people in the screenwriter circle, and he pulls everyone together to criticize, so everyone gets traffic together.
Young handsome guys suck fans and the market, but An Xuan and others suck blood by criticizing young handsome guys.
That's right. Since 2018, the traffic of An Xuan and others has also increased. Although they don't have many works, they have traffic, so they often participate in some programs and appear on some variety shows.
By the way, everyone should have remembered the year 2018. On November 5 of that year, Yu Xiaoshu traveled through time. And before Yu Xiaoshu traveled through time, when the original owner was already a waste, An Xuan criticized Yu Xiaoshu a lot.
In fact, to be honest, An Xuan ran out of ideas earlier than Yu Xiaoshu, but that's how colleagues are. Most of the naked colleagues hope that the other will die.
An Xuan seemed to have regained his confidence when he criticized Yu Xiaoshu.
For him, he seemed to find confidence only when he criticized Yu Xiaoshu. He thought Yu Xiaoshu was a waste, but when he scolded Yu Xiaoshu as a waste, he felt that he had already escaped from being a waste.
After all, to be honest, since 2018, An Xuan suddenly has a wave of fans, and it seems like there are two extremes, one wave is traffic fans, and the other wave is fans who really hate traffic fans, which is a mindless hatred.
Because of this, An Xuan and Yu Xiaoshu had actually been at odds with each other for a long time.
Then, what An Xuan didn't expect was that Yu Xiaoshu had rebounded so strongly after his divorce in 2018. He took a big step every year, and it took him 7 years to reach his current level.
What’s more important is that An Xuan didn’t expect that in this Lunar New Year movie season, Yu Xiaoshu could actually compete with Chen Feng.
No.
It was not a confrontation, Yu Xiaoshu was pressing Chen Feng to the ground and rubbing him hard.
Think about it, "The Wandering Earth" has already refreshed the single-day box office record of Chinese film and television, and looking at the current situation, it seems that it will not be a problem for "The Wandering Earth" to refresh the total box office of Chinese film and television in the future.
As a screenwriter, An Xuan can only gain traffic by scolding young handsome guys now. But look at Yu Xiaoshu, he has now become a top screenwriter. Not only has he become a top screenwriter, I heard that Yu Xiaoshu is also planning to become a director next.
Why?
So in recent years, An Xuan not only criticized young idols, he also criticized Yu Xiaoshu. Of course, this guy is quite smart, because when he criticized Yu Xiaoshu, he basically looked for some opinions that could cater to his audience.
For example, Yu Xiaoshu sometimes thinks that young and handsome actors can also be trained in the same way. Many times, a director can train the young and handsome actors well. After all, a director himself needs to direct trainees.
Then An Xuan looked at Yu Xiaoshu and made all kinds of sarcastic remarks.
Since the second half of 2019, An Xuan has basically spent three quarters of his time scolding young actors, and one quarter of his time criticizing Yu Xiaoshu.
But after all, An Xuan has more qualifications, and most young actors have to respectfully call him Teacher An, so naturally people feel embarrassed to mock and ridicule An Xuan. After all, scolding young actors has become politically correct.
But Yu Xiaoshu didn't indulge this guy.
In fact, An Xuan wanted to ease the relationship with Yu Xiaoshu a few years ago. In his opinion, he scolded and criticized Yu Xiaoshu so much. Logically speaking, Yu Xiaoshu would not invite him to the premiere or something like that.
After all, this makes Yu Xiaoshu seem more generous.
But not.
Forget about inviting him to the premiere, Yu Xiaoshu didn't even bother to pay attention to him.
Ignore.
It's like if I look at you, I will definitely lose.
That's exactly why An Xuan hated Yu Xiaoshu so much.
Unfortunately, Yu Xiaoshu never paid any attention to him at all.
This time, An Xuan wanted to hug Chen Feng's thigh tightly. In his opinion, since Yu Xiaoshu ignored him anyway, he might as well hug Chen Feng's thigh and step on Yu Xiaoshu hard again.
Unfortunately, this time, An Xuan miscalculated.
