This top guy is crazy!

Chapter 471 The whole network is crazy about "The Wandering Earth" after its release
"'The Imperial Capital Traffic Safety Committee reminds you: There are thousands of roads, but safety comes first. Driving without rules will bring tears to your loved ones.' This broadcast slogan is so corny and brainwashing. Can you please make it rhyme? Hahaha~ The movie is even more grand and magnificent than expected!
The eternal night after the terminator, the Spark Plan, letting the Earth wander, Jupiter pushing the Earth... and so on. I didn’t expect that Tianxia could also shoot a science fiction film with such a large structure and scale, and it’s the first one, it’s really amazing!
In the past, foreign science fiction seemed very far away from us, but this time, seeing the familiar Beijing Big Pants and the Oriental Pearl Tower turned into a freezing apocalyptic scene with a temperature of minus 89 degrees Celsius, I felt both curious and sad.

The Serbian people’s sci-fi is about giving up the earth and exploring new places for human habitation, while the Tianxia people’s sentiment is to not give up the earth and to keep their homeland… ‘Hope is the only way for us to go home’, it’s really amazing!!!”

"I can't describe it in words! The idea of ​​letting the earth and its people escape together is so touching and amazing!
The planetary engine in the movie is very hardcore, and the wake produced by the Earth's departure is clearly visible, just like a giant spaceship traveling in the universe;
The Imperial Capital and the Demon Capital are covered in ice and snow, looking majestic; the intersection of the earth and the wood is even more jaw-dropping. Is there any movie where you can see such a scene?
The release of "The Wandering Earth" fills the gap in Tianxia's science fiction movies, which means that Tianxia's science fiction movies have officially set sail, ushering in the real spring of "the first year of Tianxia's science fiction movies". Tianxia's science fiction fans will no longer wander, because we finally have hard science fiction!"

"The first truly Chinese science fiction blockbuster!
Cheng Cheng's hardcore sci-fi setting, the mainstream value of a soldier carrying the flag, the core of the Eastern family concept, the fusion of gravity and interstellar travel. The story layout + plot tension + emotional rendering + camera scheduling are very skillful, and the unexpected special effects are superb. It is simply perfect in line with the propaganda before the release of "a sci-fi film that deeply integrates local culture".

Cheng Cheng's work on this topic is both relevant and wonderful! I watched the last 30 minutes with my hands clenched, and several scenes made me cry. The ending background music was explosive. "Compared with Hollywood and the film industry" is a cliché, but Tianxia Films has never made me feel so full of hope!"

"The biggest fireworks display during the Spring Festival was the cosmic explosion that your dad lit for you and the Earth. It was so punk that I almost cried as I walked out of the cinema."

“Director Tian Xia was able to shoot such hard science fiction. Seeing such a high level of completion makes me excited. It makes people forgive all imperfections!

It is no exaggeration to say that this movie is the first year of Tianxia science fiction movies! "The Wandering Earth" is destined to become the first milestone of Tianxia hard science fiction movies!

Its level of industrialization is absolutely unprecedented in the country, and it is a film that can be recorded in the history of Tianxia cinema!
In fact, Tianxia audiences are not unfamiliar with this type of hard science fiction, but the country has never had the industrial foundation to shoot such large-scale hard science fiction productions. It may also be because Tianxia people do not have such cultural confidence, cannot find Tianxia’s unique cultural context, and do not believe that Tianxia people can save the earth and save the world.

Until today, a director finally did this, and did a great job, setting a very high industry benchmark for Tianxia's hard science fiction. In the cultural context of Tianxia people, saving all mankind in the way of Tianxia people can also be filmed without any sense of disobedience, and it is just as exciting! "

"This is a milestone in the Chinese film industry's leap forward! Technology, script, and spiritual core are all at the same level as the world's top peers. Cheng Cheng will rule the world for generations to come! Cheng Cheng deserves to be enshrined in the Imperial Ancestral Temple!

Worship Cheng Cheng!!!"

After the premiere of "The Wandering Earth" ended, Weibo was completely blown up!
Everyone was cheering, everyone was in disbelief.

The movie-watching discussions sparked by "The Wandering Earth" can be said to be sensational!
Everyone is discussing feelings! Discussing cultural output! Discussing milestones! Discussing the first year! Discussing cultural output! Counterattack! International spirit! National sentiment! Tianxia people's unique romance! The start of a domestic science fiction blockbuster!
The emotions surrounding it go far beyond the work itself!

Fuhai.

When He Yan walked out of the cinema, he looked a little dazed.

It seemed that everything I just saw in the cinema was just a dream.

He looked back at the poster of "The Wandering Earth" and saw the trio of Liu Qi, Han Duoduo, and Han Ziang in the center, with Liu Peiqiang looking down from above.

On this poster, in addition to the movie title "The Wandering Earth" which occupies the largest space, the most eye-catching are the four words "Cheng Cheng's work".

As Cheng Cheng’s earliest fan - "Xiao Heizi", and also a science fiction fan for twenty years, He Yan's mood at this moment is particularly complicated.

It is precisely because he is a fan of Cheng Cheng and a science fiction fan for twenty years that he knows how difficult it is to make science fiction movies in Tianxia. This difficulty is not only reflected in the technical level, but also in the entire industry environment!
The current industry environment is terrible. Everyone is thinking about making a small investment to get a big return, and everyone is thinking about draining the pond to catch all the fish.

Industrial aesthetics, popular aesthetics, and audience evaluation are all unnecessary!

All they want is profit! They only think about using the lowest cost to get the biggest profit, and they shoot whatever is popular and follow the trend. What's worse, they add their own opinions to the movies and insult the audience.

They will use any means necessary to get the box office, including secret box office operations, opposing marketing, false propaganda, malicious score manipulation, online trolls, malicious competition and exclusion, etc.

Various means emerge in endlessly.

That’s why the Tianxia movie market is cold. That’s why the public hopes that Tianxia movies will die soon.

Early death, early super life!
In this environment, it is hard to imagine that Cheng Cheng could shoot The Wandering Earth against all odds. He is like a fearless person going against the flow. When everyone is going back to pursue short-term interests and safety and comfort, only he is determined to move forward and open up a new territory for Chinese-language films.

In addition, when the news first came out, everyone was full of expectations for Cheng Cheng. It is conceivable how much pressure Cheng Cheng was under and how many doubts and challenges he endured from the outside world.

However, even under such heavy pressure, Cheng Cheng finally delivered a satisfactory answer.

He Yan certainly knew that there would be people who would take it seriously and criticize "The Wandering Earth" for all kinds of bad things, saying that it was too mainstream, that it was not as good as Hollywood movies, that it was deliberately sensational, that its logic was not rigorous, and that it was not good in many ways.

They would also use a magnifying glass to find fault with him.

but--

But err!

Humans have two eyes, which they should focus on the present and also look into the distance.

Some people like to criticize and destroy.

But some people choose to encourage and build.

He Yan only represents himself, not anyone else, but he believes that the vast majority of people like "The Wandering Earth". He doesn't know what the audience's final reaction will be, but he has the most optimistic expectations for it!
-

Meanwhile, the premieres of several other films have also concluded.

Yin Gaoyi, the director of "Corfuxia 2", got into the nanny car and asked nervously:

"How is it going? What is our real-time box office now? Also, what are the audience feedback and reviews online?"

The assistant quickly flipped open the tablet in his hand, checked it, and replied:
"Director, our current real-time box office is 5439 million, which has exceeded the expected target! The online reviews are all very positive, and most of the audiences have given it high praise, thinking that it is not inferior to the previous work, very funny, and suitable for watching during the Spring Festival. The new characters are also eye-catching."

It is now 2pm. Just three hours after its release, "Corfu 5439" has already earned million yuan at the box office, so the first day's box office will reach at least million yuan. This is indeed in line with the expectations before the release.

Hearing this, Yin Gaoyi's tense nerves finally relaxed a little. He nodded, smiled, and said, "But don't take it lightly. You still have to pay attention to the online reviews."

The assistant nodded in agreement.

"correct--"

Thinking of that terrible opponent, Yin Gaoyi asked cautiously:
"What is the current box office of The Wandering Earth?" Assistant: "1.3 million in China."

"what?"

Yin Gaoyi sat up in shock from his dying dream, totally unable to believe his ears.

He asked again: "How much?!"

Assistant: "Now it's 1.4 million."

Yin Gaoyi's lips were trembling.

It took 1.4 million in the first three hours! How much will it take in the whole day? And this is just the domestic box office! How much will it take in the global box office?
Even for Cheng Cheng, this, this is too much, right?

He then asked tremblingly: "What about the reputation of The Wandering Earth?"

He expects to hear a "disappointing" answer, so that although the box office of "Corfu 2" is currently lower than that of "The Wandering Earth", it will still have a chance to catch up.

The assistant handed him the tablet and said, "Director Yin, why don't you take a look at it yourself?"

Yin Gaoyi took the tablet and saw that the screen was the Weibo interface. Among the top ten hot searches on Weibo, five were related to "The Wandering Earth", namely #The Wandering Earth#, #Cheng Cheng, the first person in Asian commercial films#, #The hardcore era of Tianxia science fiction films has arrived#, #The Imperial Transportation Commission reminds you#, and #"The Wandering Earth" is worthy of being the pioneering work of Tianxia science fiction films#.

And "Corfuxia 2" only occupied one hot search, and they bought it themselves.

Yin Gaoyi suddenly felt a little discouraged.

He suddenly seemed to remember something and said to his assistant:

"We must maintain our screening rate!!!"

-

At the location of the filming of "The Desert Storm", the director and the main creative staff looked at the online reviews with pale faces.

"I don't understand why these classic dramas have to be remade every few years. They only add some new plots, but the plot outline remains unchanged. It's just the same story over and over again, which is very boring. The remakes are not even as good as the originals. It can only be said to be a waste of resources."

"I was taken to the cinema by my girlfriend, but I couldn't stand it after ten minutes. If I wasn't very familiar with the plot, I wouldn't have any idea what this narrative technique was about!"

"I'm really disappointed. It was made with the reputation of Old Monster Xu and martial arts, but the result was completely awful. The lead actor Liu Zhixuan had a dull and melancholy look in his eyes, which was totally devoid of spirit. Even his movements were so stiff. You call this martial arts? Why on earth should I watch such a bad movie instead of the well-received The Wandering Earth? I heard that The Wandering Earth is already very popular. I'm really impressed!"

“Garbage, garbage, garbage!!!”

“Ugly, ugly, ugly!”

These are relatively speaking just some comments from passers-by.

Of course there are positive reviews, but those are from fans and have nothing to do with the reviews from passers-by.

The assistant director consoled him, "Director Xu, don't take it too seriously. Audiences have different tastes, and there are still many who praise our film."

Old Monster Xu stretched out a hand.

Stopped them.

At present, three hours after its release, "The Desert Storm" has already earned 2 million yuan at the box office, far lower than the million yuan of "Cool Fuxia ". And it is not even a fraction of "The Wandering Earth".

This was in line with his expectations. It was also not in line with his expectations.

He said that it met his expectations, because "The Desert Storm" is ultimately a movie that serves fans, because the male lead of the movie is Liu Zhixuan, and Liu Zhixuan is very controversial, which is equivalent to Cheng Cheng before his fall and resurgence.

The fans are crazy and united.

It can be said that by choosing Liu Zhixuan, this movie will have no chance of being popular with the general public.

Before the movie was released, Xu Laoguai was mentally prepared for this.

Said it didn't meet his expectations.

It’s because Old Monster Xu still has illusions.

"The Desert Storm" is a big IP, and it is also a rare martial arts theme in recent years. Moreover, Mr. Xu is a powerful figure in the domestic film industry.

He thought it would have a 1+1+1 effect.

As a result, judging from the three hours after its release, it collapsed into the former result.

If the latter result is achieved, he may be able to find another way to compete with "The Wandering Earth" and "Corfuxia 2", but if the former result is achieved, the most important thing is to keep the basic cards.

Old Monster Xu looked solemn, with a hint of determination in his eyes, and said:
"We should immediately control the comments of all users who gave bad reviews, especially opinion leaders and film critics. We should do public relations if possible and complain if we can't. We should appease the audience at all costs, at least let them watch the movie first."

"Also, please contact Douban and Maoyan immediately and ask them not to open ratings for the initial period of our film's official release."

"Also, didn't Liu Zhixuan's team promise that as long as we give him the leading role, he will at least help us digest the 1 billion box office revenue. Now is the time for him to fulfill his promise. No matter what method he uses, whether it's coaxing or bribery, Liu Zhixuan must mobilize his fan base to contribute at least 1 billion box office revenue! Don't their fans claim to be willing to buy three for one? If they can buy one movie ticket, they will bite the bullet and buy three!"
