China Entertainment: I have been a director since 05

Chapter 447: It's a mess! No matter what! The entire industry is in a state of confusion!

"The part about Mu Tingting shows human nature, and the part about Zhu Yawen moved me the most. Most parents in the world are like Shen's mother. They don't expect their children to have great achievements that bring honor to the family. They just hope that their children can get married, have children, and live a secular life. Isn't this the path that most of us will eventually take? From generation to generation, there is a beginning and an end. But the times are different, and there is never just one way to live life!"

"The director filmed young people from four different eras, but everything they experienced covers the entire life of today's young people! Confusion about the future, emotional difficulties, conflicts between kindness and courage in the heart and family, difficulties in career, aren't these the true youth that people gain when they grow up?!"

"The audience at the premiere of "Never Gone" broke down in tears several times, and they were still crying after the show ended! In an interview, the audience said that their hearts suddenly felt empty!"

"A symphony of destiny spanning a hundred years. In the dark, everything has its cause and effect, and all living beings have their destiny."

“No one stood up and left, no one spoke out loud, and after the movie ended, there was only shock and applause at the premiere!”

“Only ask for freedom, only ask for deep affection, only ask for flourishing, only ask for original intention, only ask for courage!! No matter east or west!”

After the premiere, many film critics began to praise the film online.

“Who is better, Ning Hao or Wuershan? This movie may give us the answer!”

As an independent film critic in recent years, Ma Yufei has become more proficient through practice and has learned to type blindly.

After returning home, Ma Yufei still couldn't calm down.

So he first used the topic of who was the top general under Guan Ling, Ning Hao or Wuershan, and began to write a film review of thousands of words.

"Never Gone is an idealistic epic, about family and country, personal feelings, and the dilemma of being stuck in a difficult world.

After watching the whole movie, I sat in my seat, unable to move, just crying.

It's hard to describe what that feeling is like.

……

1,

2,

3,

4,

……

There are shock, passion, heartache, hesitation, and it is like a dream, unable to escape. I only know how to be intoxicated and hurt.

The movie ended and I woke up as if from a dream, feeling regretful and lost.

The whole movie is like a big dream in "Inception" created by Guan Ling before. Everything is traveling through time and space, just like Lie Zi, riding the wind.

In more than two hours, the youth of four generations coexist.

In every era, there is a group of young faces. They grow up in their youth, dressed in fine clothes and riding horses, in the prime of their life.

Then, at the best age, you are faced with the cruelest choice.

Each of their choices tells us an answer.

Dear fans, if you are willing, please come and take a look at their lives!"

The wording is thought-provoking. Ma Yufei even wrote in it that for contemporary young people, if they have not seen this movie, it is like not having seen "Awakening Age".

When these words were spoken, many young people were excited!
……

In one night, the entire industry was a little confused.

Ever since the premiere of this movie, the entire internet has been flooded with positive reviews.

Even though some people say that the idealism in this movie is too ridiculous, no one dares to say that this movie is not worth the price of the ticket!
that night,

Principal Gu and Guan Ling toasted each other on the table and opened a few bottles of Maotai. After Principal Gu drank heavily, he hugged Guan Ling's arm and said, "Thank you, brother. Thank you. I am very satisfied with this movie."

Ning Hao was feeling a little embarrassed, and just when he was feeling embarrassed, Principal Gu toasted him with the wine glass again.

Ning Hao was so frightened that his hands began to tremble.

He quickly greeted Principal Gu and asked him not to be so polite. Principal Gu was obviously drunk. Ning Hao knew that if he didn't say anything, everyone might become sworn brothers and swear blood oath of brotherhood here.

He was also looking at the smiles of everyone at the table, and felt a little relieved.

"I am really nervous about the many Hollywood blockbusters that are coming out soon, but I am lucky to have Ling."

The county magistrate would naturally not visit such a place, but Director Tong came.

"This movie deserves great publicity. Director Guan's screenwriting skills are Oscar-worthy after all, and the details are really thought-provoking and moving. Take Song Ping for example, in the movie he meets Shen Guangyao played by Zhu Yawen, and Zhu Yawen has played Mr. Zhou several times before, and Song Ping is Mr. Zhou's chief secretary. The details inside and outside the scenes are really admirable."

"Is there still this matter?"

"If the leader hadn't told me, I would have absolutely no idea."

Director Tong looked at Guan Ling toasting each other and was convinced.

Look at the person behind the scenes, strategizing and toasting, as if all this is no big deal.

Director Tong could guess how big a sensation this movie would cause.

This is the biggest proof that, if nothing unexpected happens, this drama will take off.

……

"Director Guan will not participate in the next promotion."

"Just let Ning Hao come, Mr. Han, I still have to work on the movie 'Hot Girls'."

He found an opportunity to talk to Guan Ling.

"Then you just keep busy. To be honest, the current domestic movie box office is really waiting for you, Director Guan, to support it. But if this happens, I think Guan Yunchang will be in trouble."

"It's not invested by your China Film Group, so there's no need for Mr. Han to worry about it." Guan Ling said, "Besides, it hasn't been released yet, so I won't raise such a flag."

"It's not enough to plant the flag. You haven't even appeared in any animated films. You're almost planting this flag all over the world."

"That's different." Guan Ling said, "They all laugh at the fact that Chinese animated films are not up to par, but Chinese films can't just be the funniest. If I don't plant this flag all over the world, then whether it's great or not, their mouths will probably be louder than the box office."

"Okay. But although this Guan Yunchang is not invested by China Film, it is the first big commercial blockbuster of Anhui Film. Anhui Film Studio has been in business for forty years, and it has only invested in such a commercial movie. If you do this, I think it may take some time for it to settle down."

Guan Ling smiled.

This is really interesting.

However, if it really fails miserably, we can only say that Anhui Film Studio is unlucky.

Ren Zhonglun also followed.

"Director Guan, was the animated film "Even if the Wind Rises" only conceived after "Never Gone"?"

He had read the script. The story in Even If the Wind Rises began with the countless heroic sacrifices of the Chinese Air Force.

The protagonist in the movie lives in fear as China declines, suffers from poverty and disease, and is surrounded by powerful countries.

The approaching war makes the protagonist's future uncertain.

The bombing also left him with only the last remaining childhood memories, but he still did not give up, and eventually created a fighter plane for China that could fight.

The whole story is simply a sequel to Shen Guangyao's life in "Never Gone".

If Shen Guangyao's life in the play is moving and sacrificial.

And "Even If the Wind Rises" is about not giving up and reaching the peak.

Thinking of this, Ren Zhonglun got goose bumps all over his body. "I had this idea before. In fact, many people and deeds in China are worth remembering, not just the protagonist of "Even if the Wind Rises". There is also Southwest Associated University, which is the "Mount Everest" in the history of Chinese higher education. Among them, there are more than 170 academicians, and eight people have won the "Two Bombs and One Satellite" Merit Award. They are the mainstay of China's scientific and technological development.

In the words of today's young people, these are the stars that Chinese audiences should follow the most."

Guan Ling's words made sense, and Ren Zhonglun kept giving him a thumbs up.

"Director Guan's vision is truly touching!"

……

Just as everyone was toasting to the event, the first batch of film reviews for "Guan Yunchang" finally began to emerge on the Internet.

In fact, today is not only the premiere of "Never Gone", but also the first day of the public release of "Guan Yunchang".

But compared to the hype at the premiere.

When the movie was actually released, all kinds of reviews came flooding in.

"Except Jiang Wen, everyone else can dodge."

"My evaluation of this movie is that it has seven nos. No gay moments, no funny moments, no tearful moments, no thundering moments, no action moments, no scenes, no plot... If you have insomnia, I dare say that this movie is more effective than sleeping pills."

"Do all Hong Kong people like to come to the mainland to cheat people out of money? You might as well make some police and gangster movies. Even if I hear the word sir, I will feel a little touched."

"It's as bad as A Chinese Ghost Story. I just want to know, are love triangles the only thing that domestic period films can do now? How about being bolder and just having a group of lovers? I think that will definitely sell better than a love triangle. Sun Li is like a female ghost from beginning to end. Her scenes are bland and lifeless!"

"The story goes like this: Cao falls in love with Guan, but can't figure out whether Guan is straight or not? So he arranges Qilan to seduce him, but finds that Guan is not moved by women! So he concludes that Guan is a straight man and must be having an affair with Bei! So Cao tries to sow discord between Guan and Bei, saying that Bei is a waste and so on~~ Guan finally insists on going to find Bei, Cao can't bear to kill him, so he lets him go... Who would have thought that Guan would be hunted down all the way, and Cao gets furious when he finds out! At this moment, Emperor Xian shows up, and the truth is revealed! The love, hatred, and grudges of the four men... Bah!"

"Zhen Zidan shows his heroic qualities when he surrenders to Yunchang, while Jiang Wenhao shows his gay side in the drama!"

"Meng De, let's break up.

When I wrote this letter, I was wearing the clothes you gave me. Only tonight, I took off Xuande's old clothes and wore only the new clothes given by Mengde.

Meng De, I am leaving. That day on Tushan, I promised you three things through Wen Yuan. Now that Xuan De has sent me a letter, I will go to find him.

I know you are very good to me.

When I mounted the horse, you lifted up my robe playfully; when I dismounted, you greeted me with eyes full of spring like a young man.

You also jokingly gave me ten women.

In my heart, there are only you and Xuande, how could you not know?

Even if there are hundreds or thousands of Wenyuans and Gongmings in the world, how can they compare to half a Mengde or half a Xuande, let alone a woman? ..."

"My evaluation of the Guan Yu and Cao Cao version of Pleasant Goat and Big Big Wolf is that how bad Guan Yu is is how good Red Cliff is! There is no limit to the thunder rolling, but I just want to ask, how did the big production of the PLA lines come out in this play? Crazy, right?!"

"I was hurt by "Warring States", and I was disappointed by "Guan Yunchang". My friends, please keep the money in your pockets, or else it will become your coffin money after watching the movie."

There are many bad comments online, but the evaluation of this play really made the creative staff all confused.

In the capital, Zhen Zidan was reading the comments about "Guan Yunchang" on the Internet. His fists became harder and harder, and even his knuckles turned slightly white from being squeezed by him.

He thought Guan Ling was slandering him.

But after clicking in, I found that many of the comments were from active accounts.

There were even strong recommendations for Jet Li's "Ocean Heaven" and criticisms of "Painted Skin 2".

While this movie was being wildly criticized, the reviews for "Never Say Die" on various major platforms were all shocking and moving.

The movie war between Zhen Zidan and Guan Ling that was previously hyped by the media.

It's like a propaganda farce.

In a corner where no one cares, one of these two movies has taken off, while the other has been swept into the trash.

Zhen Zidan's eyes were slightly cold.

Early next morning.

The box office of Guan Yunchang on the first day is released, with a box office of 1680 million! Not bad, at least it ranks among the top movies in April.

And this result was achieved because of the half-price day on the first Tuesday.

But theaters and producers are quite nervous.

"Never Gone" will be released tomorrow, and judging by the current reviews of "Guan Yunchang", the potential of this drama may be limited.

And most people have seen clearly that if it weren’t for Jiang Wen, the box office of this movie might not be possible at all.

But the creators will not admit defeat, and a large number of promotional slogans are still added crazily!

"Achieved the best first week performance of new films in April! The controversial topic of "Guan Yunchang" has become a box office guarantee!"

"It beat "Ip Man 2" and "Guan Yunchang" has a market share of %!"

I have to say that the main creators will still do it. They dare not compare the first-day box office, but end up working hard on market share to deceive people into watching the movie.

May Day is coming soon, and no one can accept the possible bloodbath in this movie.

On the second day, the box office hardly changed, reaching 3200 million!
It was another scam.

But everyone is waiting for the release of "Never Gone".

For theaters, this movie is a blockbuster for the May Day holiday. They are most aware of the negative reviews of "Guan Yunchang" on the Internet, and the first-day box office of this movie also determines the proportion of screenings during the May Day holiday.

In the past two days, Tsinghua University, Lingyun Media, and major media in Beijing have once again heavily stepped up their publicity for this film.

This movie has already been promoted to the point where it is known to the entire internet!

4 month 28 day.

"Never Gone" was released in full shocking fashion.

On that day, countless viewers in the cinema suddenly discovered that when they bought tickets for this movie, many of them were sold out.

In many universities, many students took leave because of headaches and stomachaches.

The next day.

The first day box office of "Never Gone" is released, with a box office result of 5100 million!
It is approximately equal to three more “Guan Yu”!
For a moment, the entire Internet was stunned.

As we all know, March and April are the bleak seasons for the film market, but the end of April is the bleakest of all. The May Day holiday is approaching, and many viewers are waiting for the holiday to watch a movie.

However, "Never Gone" does the opposite.

Zhen Zidan felt numb all over when he looked at the dazzling box office results.

He had a feeling that his current first-line endorsements might be drifting away from him.

Beijing Subway,

The advertising slogan "Bawang Herbal Tea is delicious and has a sweet aftertaste" has been ringing around.

But in Zhen Zidan's heart, there was only timidity and fear!

Guan Ling, he is still the same Guan Ling!

The success of Ip Man is not only due to
Do not,
It’s not because of him, Zhen Zidan!
For the first time, this thought became so concrete in his mind and made him so worried!
