China Entertainment: Been working as a director since 03

Chapter 351 Li Yu was shown off by Da Tiantian
A literary film with a box office of over 3 million is definitely very high quality.

After all, in the eyes of many people, the artistry and style of literary films must be superior to commercial films.

3 million, which is an achievement that many purely commercial films cannot achieve.

If "Gone Girl" really achieves this result, Chen Kaige will definitely be able to do it for a whole year.

Later, Feng Xiaogang, who became famous, went to make literary films. At that time, China already had movies with a box office of billions.

After Feng Xiaogang's "Youth" received a box office of over 1 billion, he could pretend to be the only one in China who made a literary film to achieve this box office.

Now Feng Xiaogang is not focused on literary and artistic films.

If "Gone Girl" can really get a box office of 3 million, then this movie is currently the highest-grossing literary film in China.

Chen Kaige can also claim to the outside world very pretentiously that he is the only one who can achieve this result in a literary film in China.

Because of this, Chen Kaige had a frightened expression on his face.

"I have already booked the movie tickets. I hope the netizens who praised this movie before are not trolls."

At this moment, Chen Kaige actually felt Wu Baige's pain.

Especially old fans of Chen Kaige are looking forward to this movie.

It’s true that big-name directors were brilliant in their peak years. It’s also true that they made a bunch of bad movies and deceived many audiences.

If there are positives, there will definitely be negatives.

"Director Li, this is too exaggerated. 3 million box office is incredible."

As a senior director who has been in the Chinese film industry for many years, he knows very well how valuable it is to earn 3 million box office for a literary film.

The audience's expectations were very high.

Is he so untrustworthy now?

Can he say that those who participated in the screening are definitely not trolls? Except for some media, the rest are all real audiences.

After discovering such a phenomenon in the public opinion field, Chen Kaige almost vomited blood.

A week later, there is only one day left until Gone Girl is released.

"Having been fooled by "The Promise", I still choose to wait and see for the time being. You go and test the waters first. If the film is really good, it won't be too late for me to contribute another movie ticket."

Some viewers who had been cheated by Chen Kaige raised their doubts.

"I found that most of the people who participated in the screening of this movie gave very high ratings. Those people should not be invited by Chen Kaige, right? Chen Kaige has really returned to his former glory? Why don't I believe it?"

From the aspect of strong style alone, it is not inferior to "Man Jiang Hong", a collaboration between Li Yu and Zhang Yingmou.

Take Chen Kaige for example. In recent years, none of his works have reached his peak level, and there have also been works that were extremely bad.

This is also the reason why domestic big-name directors gradually lost to Mesozoic directors in terms of box office appeal.

Of course, many things are like two sides of the same coin.

Li Yu said nothing more about this, because the teacher would give the correct answer in time.

Chen Kaige couldn't believe Li Yu's words at all.

It is normal for the viewers who have been cheated by him to be disappointed in her, and it is also normal for this part of the audience to have a wait-and-see mood.

When Chen Kaige was worrying about this matter, his assistant told him that Li Yu had sent a Weibo post to promote the movie "Gone Girl".

The content of Li Yu’s Weibo is as follows.

"I dare to guarantee my reputation. Director Chen definitely did not pay for the trolls.

I was one of the first viewers of the movie "Gone Girl". I think this movie is one of the best literary films in China today.

Perhaps there is still some gap compared with Director Chen's pinnacle work "Farewell My Concubine", but compared with most literary and artistic films on the market, it is definitely small.

By the way, Director Chen's artistic film this time is a bit special. I think it won't be too bad in terms of business.

Let me boldly estimate here that the box office performance of this movie will be more than 3 million. "

Chen Kaige was deeply moved after learning this. Li Yu is truly loyal and dares to take action when something happens.

Li Yu actually gave his reputation to his film platform.

Wait... Li Yu actually said with certainty on a public social platform like Weibo that "Gone Girl" can get 3 million box office.

Isn't Li Yu afraid of being slapped in the face?
Even he, the director, is not confident that he can get that box office.

After Li Yu's Weibo post was posted, it immediately became the focus of public opinion.

Li Yu's words had an immediate effect.

Li Yu has always had a good reputation since his debut and has never had a record of cheating the audience.

Therefore, people's trust in Li Yu is very high.

Li Yu's support for "Gone Girl" has shaken many on the sidelines.

"I couldn't help it anymore and have already booked a movie ticket. Even if I don't believe Chen Kaige, I still have to believe Director Li.

I believe that Director Li will not cheat me. My colleagues all bought tickets for "Dream Showbiz" back then.

Director Li told everyone that it was a super bad movie with no limit to the badness. I listened to Director Li and refunded the ticket in advance, so I escaped a disaster and my eyes were not polluted by a bad movie.

Just for this reason, I should trust Director Li once. "

"I believe in Director Li's vision and aesthetics. Director Li said it was a good film. Nine times out of ten, he can't be wrong."

"Go ahead, go ahead. Director Li's prediction is basically correct. I believe in Director Li."

……

Quite a few netizens changed their minds because of Li Yu's Weibo.

Chen Kaige envied Li Yu's appeal from the bottom of his heart.

Not only Chen Kaige, but all peers in the industry will envy Li Yu's strong appeal and influence.

Hualiu Company.

Da Tiantian, who had returned, was somewhat incomprehensible to Li Yu's actions, and asked doubtfully: "Li Yu, why do you want to use your reputation to support Chen Kaige?
If the box office of his movie does not reach 3 million, won't your face be swollen? "

"No way, absolutely impossible."

Li Yu shook his head and denied.

"Are you so confident?"

Big sweet confused face.

"Can I not be confident in the scripts I wrote? Tiantian, recall, in all the scripts I wrote, have my predictions ever been wrong?"

Li Yu said with confidence.

Da Tiantian really recalled it carefully, and she was surprised to find that Li Yu was really not wrong in predicting the script she wrote.

In many cases, Li Yu's predictions are even conservative, and the final results are often more beautiful than Li Yu's predictions.

But...this time the situation is different! "Gone Girl" is a literary film.

Da Tiantian is like many people. In her eyes, artistic films mean niche, and niche means poor box office.

Therefore, although Li Yu's previous predictions were correct, this time she was skeptical.

She thought for a moment and said to Li Yu seriously: "It's okay. If it's tens of millions or one hundred million to reach 300 million, I can just spend money to help you increase the box office."

Da Tiantian is serious, she will not allow the man who takes her to fly to be slapped in the face.

Li Yu: "..."

Although Li Yu is used to Da Tiantian's arrogance, this time he was still shown off.
