Rebirth: I'm filming extra scenes on the set

Chapter 204: Make up for the regret, this time, first in three lists!!!

"Then there's no need to watch If You Are the One, right?"

Maybe this netizen just has his own personal opinion.

Maybe he doesn't like going to the movies usually.

Maybe.

He didn't want to spend 50 bucks.

But no matter what.

After this netizen posted this sentence, he received countless replies.

"Hahaha, finally someone said not to watch If You Are the One."

"Well, after watching the trailer of Love Apartment, why would I want to watch If You Are the One?"

"Yes, Love Apartment is free, and it is said that there are 20 episodes left. If You Are the One is 50 yuan, and it is only about 100 minutes long. Who would be stupid enough to watch it?"

"I admit that Feng Xiaogang's comedy films are good, but compared with Love Apartment, I think If You Are the One may be a bit outdated."

Is If You Are the One outdated?

No one has yet been able to define it.

But every entertainment product has a time limit.

I used to think it was a classic, but now it seems just so-so.

It’s not that the photos taken before were not good-looking.

This is because everyone’s aesthetic standards, or pursuits, have become higher.

In the past, when you hadn’t watched many comedy films, you would think that the comedy in If You Are the One was the funniest comedy in the country at that time.

But after watching Love Apartment, they suddenly found that the jokes in If You Are the One seemed too old.

It's just like that scene in If You Are the One where the mom and wife jump into the water at the same time, and you ask who to save first.

Isn’t this topic old?

Although Uncle Ge’s answer was okay.

But really, he just said it in a different way.

If my mother and wife really fell into the water, there would be absolutely no solution.

of course.

In fact, this kind of Feng-style comedy also has its merits.

Some of the comedies are quite high-level, and if you savor them carefully, they are quite funny.

But the series of lines and jokes in Love Apartment are not only extremely down-to-earth, but also come from everyone's life.

After comparing the two, Love Apartment conquered everyone at once.

……

"Director Chen, our Love Apartment is going to be a big hit?"

"Yeah, you just knew that."

"So, we made a profit?"

“You guys made a lot of money.”

Chen Cheng said to Mr. Wang from Oriental TV with a smile.

Fortunately.

Love Apartment has more than just one season.

otherwise.

There is no way Chen Cheng could sell it for 2200 million.

It's just a pity.

Due to scheduling issues, Oriental TV cannot broadcast Love Apartment right away.

If only I could let it go now.

With the influence of Love Apartment, If You Are the One will either die or be crippled.

But even if Love Apartment only posts some short jokes every day, If You Are the One would find it a little unbearable at this time.

Some of the people who originally paid attention to If You Are the One gradually shifted their attention to Love Apartment.

Some of the posts that dissed Chen Cheng also disappeared quietly at this time.

……

time flies.

In a blink of an eye.

The National Day period is coming soon.

The two biggest dramas of this period are "If You Are the One" and "The Besieged City".

After more than a month of behind-the-scenes work, it is finally going to meet the public.

obviously.

Judging from this off-the-board move, If You Are the One has suffered a huge impact.

But after all, it is one of the three major giants in the country.

Feng Xiaogang's reputation is still very popular.

Let’s not worry about what the TV series is like for now.

At the film market.

There are still a group of friends who are willing to spend real money to go to the cinema just because of Feng Xiaogang's fame.

no way.

Feng Xiaogang’s name is not for nothing.

This is a reputation built over more than ten years.

Even Chen Cheng cannot compare to him in this respect.

Although many people know it.

Chen Cheng almost ranked first in the three lists before.

But no one knows whether Chen Cheng can keep it up.

"Brother, are you going to watch If You Are the One or October Besieged?"

"If you are serious, please don't disturb me."

"Why? Didn't someone say that If You Are the One is not as good as Love Apartment?"

"I don't know if I can compare with him, but I still believe in Director Feng's name. What about you?"

"I want to watch The Siege of October."

"I heard that The Besieged City in October is a mainstream film. The mainstream theme seems high-brow and out of touch with reality. What's so good about it?"

"I went there for Chen Cheng's reputation."

"That's right. Share it after reading it."

"OK."

overall.

Although If You Are the One suffered a great impact in previous publicity.

But on the first day of its release.

"If You Are the One" still has some advantages over "The Siege of the City in October".

This is also proven by the film scheduling.

On that day, If You Are the One was scheduled to be screened at 30 spots.

The screening time for "The Siege of October" is 28 spots.

For a number of cinema companies, they are more concerned with the data of If You Are the One.

Judging from the box office that day.

If You Are the One has also been suppressing October Siege.

Chen Cheng was holding two movie tickets.

One was used to watch If You Are the One.

The other one was to watch the film "The Besieged City in October" that I had taken.

That's why I went to see both movies.

Chen Cheng mainly wanted to see what the public thought of the two films.

Operate like this.

On the one hand, it can allow Chen Cheng to more accurately predict the box office of the next two films.

Another is to understand the audience more deeply.

……

"Stable."

It took Chen Cheng more than four hours to finish watching the two films.

After reading it, Chen Cheng sent a message to Chen Kexin.

Chen Kexin was a little puzzled: "Chen Cheng, what's going on? Our box office is still suppressed, what do you mean by stable?"

"It's just the box office for the day, let's see tomorrow."

The first day box office is not enough to tell the situation of the two films.

Because no one had seen the movie on the first day.

Most people don’t know which movie is good or which movie has a good reputation.

It all depends on personal preference, such as which director is famous or which movie they like.

Frankly speaking.

If You Are the One and October Siege both have great advantages.

One is directed by Feng Xiaogang and starred by Ge You.

The other one has dozens of stars from both places, which can be said to be the top lineup in recent times.

Plus there is Chen Cheng.

But in the end, the film market looks at qualifications.

More people would go to If You Are the One first.

but.

the next day.

The situation is completely different.

Almost starting from midnight the next day, the box office figures of the two films were reversed.

On the first day, If You Are the One was outshined by October Siege.

The next day, October Siege overshadowed If You Are the One.

The reason is also very simple.

After a day of broadcasting, the reputation of the two films finally arrived.

"Well, I watched If You Are the One, and it was indeed very funny, but I think it's really not as good as watching Love Apartment."

"I originally just viewed Love Apartment as a joke, but now I find that the jokes in If You Are the One are really a bit old."

"I support Director Feng. If it weren't for Love Apartment, I think this would have been a good show."

There is no harm without comparison.

Despite the release of a series of trailers for Love Apartment, everyone is still willing to give Feng Xiaogang a chance.

Therefore, If You Are the One did not have much impact on the box office on the first day, but instead set a new record.

But the next day.

The impact that had occurred before has finally arrived.

The filming quality of Love Apartment may not be as good as If You Are the One.

Maybe the acting level of the actors in Love Apartment is not as good as that in If You Are the One.

but.

His concept of comedy has already surpassed If You Are the One by several levels.

This is a bit like using higher-dimensional viewpoints from later generations to attack your own low-dimensional concepts.

To use a very fashionable phrase in the science fiction world, it is a dimensionality reduction attack.

Yes.

In the area of ​​funny comedies, there is also a dimensionality reduction attack.

of course.

It's not just Love Apartment.

The October Siege was the biggest influencing factor.

The story of The Siege of October is actually a rather grand story.

That is the story of a group of friends from all over the world who risked their lives to protect Sun Wen.

If you follow the beat of the original main melody.

Maybe no one is interested or thinks it is too high-end.

But the good thing about this story is that, although it is the main theme, it is not filmed in a grand way.

Not only is it not high-sounding, but it is also very down-to-earth.

He created a series of characters, focusing on the portrayal of minor characters.

A gambler, a coachman, a businessman, a prodigal son, and a peddler who sells stinky tofu for a living.

They don’t know whether they are patriotic or not.

They don’t even know the so-called Three Principles of the People.

They don't even know who they are supposed to protect.

but.

They sacrificed their lives for a belief.

finally.

After the meeting, Sun Wen left Hong Kong.

This is the end.

China's journey to save the nation and strengthen the country has begun.

"After watching The Siege of October, I want to say that this movie is much better than Assembly."

"Well, it makes me want to cry. The tofu vendor only said one sentence before he died: My name is Wang Fuming."

"He's fine. Everyone remembers his name as Wang Fuming. What's the name of Fourth Brother Deng?"

"Isn't he called Fourth Brother Deng?"

"This is just a casual title. His real name may not be this. Or maybe he doesn't even have a name."

"I felt really disgusted with the villain at first, but then I thought of Yan Xiaoguo and found that I couldn't hate him anymore."

"Yes, this thought makes me cherish my current life even more because it is hard-earned."

"Yes. In these hundred years, so many people have sacrificed their lives."

The main theme has never been what is called lofty and noble.

The former grandness was just because many people took the wrong path.

The main theme can also be used to make a beautiful, down-to-earth and classic film.

Although "Assembly" is also good, it is not as profound as "October Besieged City".

Don't compare.

There is no comparison between the two films.

……

"Overtaking, October Besieged City's box office has surpassed If You Are the One."

"It's normal. The filming of The Siege of October is so good. It's the best Hong Kong film I've ever seen."

"Brother, this isn't a Hong Kong film. Didn't you see there are quite a few mainland actors? Also, this is Chen Cheng's work."

"Yes, yes, yes, I almost forgot, this was co-directed by Chen Cheng, and Chen Cheng was also the producer."

"At first I was a little worried that Chen Cheng would not be able to stand up to Feng Xiaogang, but now it seems that I was overthinking it."

“I wonder if October Siege will set a new record.”

"Do you mean breaking the domestic record?"

"Correct."

Many people are keeping an eye on the box office.

Especially some friends who have always supported Chen Cheng.

to be frank.

They have always felt regretful that "Those Years" did not rank first in the three charts.

But this time.

Judging from the way October Siege looks...it looks like it's going to break the record again.

"Brothers, do you think that October Siege can break the record?"

“It looks promising, but it’s not certain.”

"Well, you know, the highest box office was 2.9 million. It was so strong back then, but it still hasn't been broken."

"I think the October siege can be broken."

"why?"

"Did you guys check today's box office?"

"I've seen it, 1600 million is not too high, nor too low."

"What about yesterday?"

"Yesterday it was also 1600 million, what's the difference?"

"Of course it's different."

A friend who knows a lot about box office sales said, "Generally speaking, after a movie is released, its box office sales will drop day by day. However, it was 1600 million yesterday and 1600 million today, and it's not the weekend, so what does this prove?"

"Prove what?"

"It proves that the box office has not fallen."

"Pfft...Brother, what you said makes a lot of sense."

"No, you don't understand. This is called a reverse decline in the industry, which means that it should decline, but it didn't. Once a movie shows this reverse decline phenomenon, it proves that this movie still has great potential."

Some people are constantly studying science.

In fact, that's exactly what happened.

Why is the main melody called the main melody?

It's not that he conveys those lofty ideas.

The main theme is actually the most important and acceptable ideological trend among the public.

This kind of thinking may not be obvious at ordinary times.

But when the critical moment comes, this kind of thought will definitely occupy the hearts of the general public.

The Olympic Games had just ended.

The National Day is extremely lively.

Amid the double celebration, this main theme is stronger than at any other time.

This also caused.

Some friends who had not planned to watch the movie before also entered the cinema.

"I haven't watched a movie for a long time. I heard that October Besieged City is a mainstream film. I'd like to support it."

"I don't usually watch movies, but I heard that The Siege of October is very well made. It's not the kind of high-sounding, scripted film, nor is it the kind of textbook-style cramming education. I'll go watch it first and then give you my comments."

"I only remember that Shen Chongyang was holding the toys he bought for his daughter until his death. Even a gambler could love his son. For the sake of our next generation, I now understand why our ancestors dared to give up their lives."

"Because there is something more precious than their lives."

……

"1.1."

"1.3."

"1.6."

At the beginning, "If You Are the One" was able to compete with "The Besieged City" on equal terms.

But slowly.

"If You Are the One" has begun to fall behind.

At first the gap was only 1000 million, then it increased to 2000 million, and then to 3000 million.

All major cinema companies understand that If You Are the One can no longer catch up.

The film scheduling and division began again.

This time.

In October, the screening schedule of Wei Cheng increased to 30 points.

If You Are the One, it dropped to 28 points.

According to this trend.

Industry insiders said.

The screening schedule of If You Are the One may be further reduced.

The screening schedule of "The Besieged City" in October may increase.

The reason is also known through data.

On the one hand, the box office of "The Besieged City" is getting higher and higher.

another.

The attendance rate of "October Besieged City" is also several points higher than that of "If You Are the One".

As one rises, so does another.

If You Are the One has withdrawn from the championship competition with October Besieged.

Then.

There is only one left.

Can October Siege create a new record?
Chen Cheng.

Can we achieve first place in three lists in another sense?

……

"Brother, do you think we still have a chance to learn directing?"

"Why do you say that?"

"Take us for example, the fifth generation of directors basically control the current resources. The sixth generation, except for you, are still struggling. We really don't know if we will be unemployed after graduation."

In the Beijing Film Academy class.

Several classmates were chatting with Chen Cheng.

This sigh is not without reason.

Being a director is a very difficult profession.

Even if they are masters from Beijing Film Academy.

However, Chen Cheng comforted everyone and said, "Don't think too much. Believe that the world belongs to us. Moreover, new technologies are constantly emerging, which also brings us more opportunities."

"Brother, what is this new technology you are talking about?"

"internet."

"But it seems that the Internet has not been of much help to movies. On the contrary, it has encouraged piracy."

"Yes, it is now, but not necessarily in the future. In addition, we only see the negative side of the Internet, but we also need to see the positive side of the Internet. For example, there are some short videos on various video websites now. Have you noticed?"

"Short videos? Brother, do you think short videos have any value?"

“Everyone can go and study it.”

Graduate classes are very easy.

Chen Cheng attended a few classes and then left.

The short video he just mentioned has not yet reached its peak in later generations.

But the short video model has already emerged.

Websites like Tudou and Youku have already started to offer a lot of short videos.

only.

They regard these short videos more as entertainment.

of course.

Most of the short videos in later generations are also for entertainment.

However, while entertaining, a series of business avenues have gradually matured.

But a pity.

This is still the 2G Internet era.

It is not yet fully developed in all aspects and not many people pay attention to this market.

"Chen Cheng, what are you doing recently?"

"It's class."

"Oh, I forgot you're still a student. By the way, do you know how much our film "October Besieged City" is making now?"

"I checked, 2.7 million."

"Haha, are you excited?"

"Not excited,"

"I go……"

Chen Kexin was somewhat speechless: "Well, you created a box office of 2.8 million before. But soon, you will be number one in the three charts."

"First on the three lists?"

Chen Cheng was a little surprised: "Have we put our October Siege on Hong Kong and Formosa?"

"No."

"How come he is number one on the three lists if he is not there?"

"You almost ranked first in three charts before. If you rank first in the mainland box office this time, won't that make up for your previous regret?"

“Is there such a way to make up for it?”

Chen Cheng was a little surprised.

"Haha, just be happy. Ordinary people don't get such treatment."

Chen Kexin hung up the phone with a smile.

Chen Cheng read some news and posts on the Internet.

Chen Cheng also understood the first place in the three lists.

Theoretically, Chen Cheng is naturally not the first in any of the three lists this time.

Even if it really set a record, it would only be number one on the singles list in the mainland.

However, a group of netizens used Chen Cheng’s previous achievements to make up for this regret.

have to say.

This is the fans' immense love for Chen Cheng.

As it is now.

There are some friends who are more looking forward to it than Chen Cheng.

As long as there is time.

They continue to refresh the box office rankings.

"Brothers, the box office has reached 2.8 million."

"Well, we need another 1000 million or so to set a record of being the No. domestic box office hit."

"Why are you so excited? There are still three days left. This time the record must be broken."

"I know."

"You're still so excited knowing that?"

“Because I know this, I want to witness this record in person.”

"Fuck, that makes me lose my composure."

Many netizens are keeping an eye on the box office data.

Every time the data is updated, they are more excited than anyone else.

same.

Some media reporters were also recording this moment.

They know it too.

The so-called first place in the three lists is just nonsense.

This time, Chen Cheng is not even ranked first in any of the three lists.

But the previous "Those Years" created a historical record that was too horrific.

In the second film, Chen Cheng makes a comeback and is about to realize what he failed to do last year.

Isn’t this the first of the three lists in another sense?
"2.88."

"2.89."

"Brothers, get ready..."

He stared at the box office of "The Besieged City" without blinking.

These friends have nothing to do with Chen Cheng.

They didn't know why, but they just sat in front of the computer without moving.

"2.9."

"My grass..."

"Calm down, calm down. The price of Curse of the Golden Flower is 2.91 million. I need another 100 million. Wait a little longer. Wait another 100 million."

"Don't wait, one million will appear as soon as you say this."

"Okay, 2.92 million."

"First on the three lists, first on the three lists, first on the three lists!!!"

Say the important thing three times.

At this moment, countless people named the first names on the three lists.
