Entertainment: Top players who started out as trainees

Chapter 319 The next rising box office giant!
What is even more unexpected is that the box office decline of "Better Days" in the second week was very stable and normal.

The decline was much lower than anyone expected!
Including Ning Luo himself!

Normally, films with top-tier traffic will experience a sharp drop in box office revenue on the first weekend or even after the first day.

The reason is simple. Most of the fans who are rushing to buy the movie at the box office are concentrated in these few days.

However, the box office drop of "Better Days" in the second week was almost the same as that of a normal film.

This shows that the word-of-mouth of this film has spread greatly and its influence has spread to a very high level, attracting a large number of passers-by to watch the movie, offsetting the decline caused by the withdrawal of fans!
But to be honest, this result is a bit too exaggerated!

After all, this is just an art film with a very limited audience!

At one time, countless film and television companies began to investigate and analyze the reasons for this abnormal phenomenon.

A few points were summarized.

First of all, it must be because of the film itself.

"Better Days" tells stories about "school bullying" and "original family", sensitive topics that have attracted much attention from the society. It has strong social significance, a complete narrative, and high quality.

During the National Day holiday, three main-theme blockbusters dominated the entire film market, and audiences were inevitably fatigued.

At this time, a film appeared that dared to expose the dark side of society and gave people a wake-up call and sounded the alarm.

With the strong marketing of the film company, it quickly became a widely discussed social topic.

Experts and scholars from all walks of life have published articles praising it.

Including Professor Yi Zhongtian, who said that "what makes a movie art is restraint, sense of proportion and appropriateness."

Various authoritative media also published articles affirming the social significance of the film.

Many authoritative media outlets, such as RenX Daily, RenX.com, Xinhua News Agency, CCTV News, and Voice of China, have written articles many times to affirm that the film has broken through the pattern of domestic youth films and has given it more universal inquiries into human nature.

Before this, netizens always praised Peninsula for having "The Crucible", and now, a "Chinese hardcore youth film" has also appeared in the mainland.

There is no car accident, melodrama, or terminal illness.

Nor did it treat "school violence" as a shell, holding it high and then letting it go gently, but instead went straight into the sensitive area of ​​school violence.

By taking advantage of the tip of the iceberg of school violence, the cruelest truth of youth is laid bare before everyone.

This attracted many people who were not interested in this type of film to go to the cinema.

Judging from the subsequent public opinion trends, this film obviously did not disappoint most people.

Although the score of "Better Days" is slowly declining, it is still stable at a high level of 8.4 points.

Correspondingly, the number of people who rated it has increased rapidly!
In just a few days, the number of people who rated it has exceeded 150 million!
In the entire history of Chinese-language films, it can be ranked among the top seven!
The works ranked above it, such as "A Chinese Odyssey", "Let the Bullets Fly", "Nezha", "Little Big Ball", "Dying to Survive", etc., are all phenomenal works.

And now "Better Days" has clearly emerged as a sign of becoming a "phenomenal" film.

On the other hand, the film producers are also constantly making news to continuously attract traffic and attention.

They even went so far as to drag out the previous male lead Lu Han to increase popularity, implying that he refused to play Xiao Bei and made Ning Luo successful.

Just two days after "Better Days" was released, Hou Xiaoqiang, one of the producers, suddenly liked a Weibo post that implied Lu Han.

The post said, "The producers of Better Days should give Mr. Lu a red envelope to thank him for turning down the role of Xiao Bei and making this masterpiece a success."

This action directly made this Weibo post a hot topic.

One stone caused a thousand waves!

Lu Han, who had already gained explosive reputation due to "Magic City Fortress", was immediately ridiculed by countless netizens.

There were even big Vs who made comments implying that Teacher Lu could only be a variety show star.

Although Hou Xiaoqiang apologized on Weibo later and said he would "no longer post any content related to Better Days", the popularity of the video has already risen. Teacher Lu is also in a very bad situation.

"The Fortress" failed, and the director used him to pass the blame.

Now, the crew of "Better Days" is showing him off again.

All I can say is that what you owe will be repaid sooner or later.

Finally, on the other hand, various film and television companies naturally turn their attention to the actors.

To put it bluntly, it’s Ning Luo!
Among the main creative members, only the director, Ning Luo and Zhou Dongyu are well-known enough.

As we all know, Zhou Dongyu is not a box office force.

Director Zeng has not produced any works that have been box office hits.

so~
After in-depth investigation and analysis, a group of film and television company executives discovered that Ning Luo’s current public favorability is simply frighteningly high!
The reason for this, in addition to Ning Luo's already very good image and reputation, the biggest factor is that Ning Luo's performance in the film is really too eye-catching.

A highlight that exceeds the expectations and imagination of all movie fans!
After watching the movie, many people found that even when competing with Golden Horse Film Queen Zhou Dongyu, Ning Luo's performance was not at all inferior.

They don't understand any professional performance knowledge or theory, nor do they intend to learn about it. They just come to this conclusion based on the simplest intuition.

But that's enough.

Ning Luo's performance added a lot of points to the film!

With the high-intensity marketing of Ningluo's team and an extremely large fan base, the film has attracted the attention and curiosity of more people, who have rushed to watch the film to verify it.

Then I was surprised to find that this was really a surprise!

Traffic is a double-edged sword.

On the one hand, it can bring more attention to the film.

On the other hand, the film will also be labeled as a "fan movie".

Most fan movies will fail unless the traffic star's performance is recognized by the public.

And Ning Luo did just that!
In short, with the superposition of all the above factors, "Better Days" successfully broke free from the limitations of "fan movie" and "youth art film", broke through the siege, and became popular!

For a time, many film and television companies were ready to move.

Realistic movies like "Better Days" are not easy to replicate.

First, it is difficult to shoot, and it is also difficult to pass the review.

"Better Days" was also submitted several times and delayed for several months, even until Lu Han was gone, before it was approved.

But they can ask Ning Luo to film the movie!

With the box office and word of mouth of "Better Days" both booming, Ning Luo's popularity and influence will definitely see explosive growth!
This also means that his "box office appeal" will also see a huge increase!
Maybe now he is not as good as T0-level figures like the Iron Triangle, Shen Teng, Deng Chao, Wang Baoqiang, and Wu Jing the Great, but with the support of an extremely terrifying number of active fans, he is definitely much better than other Mesozoic movie stars!

Like what four dan double. . One ice, just step on the head tulle!

Not to mention the new generation, they will sweep it all away!

The only one who can be mentioned is Liu Haoran, who is currently in the limelight thanks to the "Detective Chinatown" IP.

But looking at the box office of his movies, there is no question of box office appeal.

What's more, Ning Luo has just started to gain momentum!

With the strong support of the veteran film and television giant Xinli and one of the largest companies in the domestic entertainment industry, Tencent, which can even remove the "one of" in the name, Ning Luo has almost no chance of failing halfway.

Who wouldn’t want to have a good relationship with such a “box office magic drug” with outstanding strength and unlimited potential?
Although it may slightly affect their relationship with certain people in certain circles, compared with the overwhelming wealth, who cares?
What is a little bit of a headache is that Ning Luo is said to be very picky about scripts.

　Godfathers, it's better to go two first and three later. Orz~
