Chapter 1111 I’m on Vacation, Don’t Disturb Me!
Original Time and Space, the evaluation of "The Wandering Earth" is mostly positive...
Of course, there are also malicious smears, especially those led by many blue Vs on Weibo, including Beijing News, Weibo Movies, Finance Network, Caixin.com, The Paper...
Same this time!
In fact, the Beijing News has always been like this. When the Beijing News first appeared, Shen Xudong was a freshman at BJ.
A copy of the Beijing News costs one yuan and comes with drinks and sometimes bread!
What do you do to make money?
Most of the ten or twenty pages of the newspaper are advertisements!
Does advertising require truth? No, it’s traffic!
So the Beijing News dares to say anything, as long as it won't be banned and as long as it can make a hot topic, they have no scruples.
In recent years, we have actually done a lot of great things and good things, exposing this, exposing that...
Won the praise of the conscience of the industry...
——The conscience of the industry? In fact, to put it bluntly, we are looking for hot spots to attract traffic!
So for "The Wandering Earth", it is a good movie and has a good reputation. If they come out to praise it, what can they do to praise it?
Whether anyone sees it or not is a question!
However, Sina Finance took the lead and directly reposted the article that was the most discussed on Douban. The article "Zuoqiu Blindness": "The Wandering Earth" failed...
They could only find another way and praised "Crazy Alien", praising it for "accurately grasping the characteristics of Chinese science fiction, highlighting the grassroots local culture of Chinese science fiction movies, and stepping out of the characteristics of Chinese science fiction...", "If it does not focus on space, it will not Looking at the vastness of the starry sky, the goal is not the stars and the sea. Make the story smaller and refocus science fiction on the individual...'
Translation: You Chinese are not worthy of making movies with special effects and big scenes. In other words, that is the prerogative of beautiful fathers, and you Chinese are not worthy of it.
The same routine is used this time, praising "Journey to the West: Conquering the Demons", calling it "Chinese characteristics", "dark and evil, with dazzling special effects!" ’
Of course, when it comes to "The Wandering Earth", it's still the same "script deviates from the original work" and "the scientific setting is not rigorous"...
Then I was criticized by netizens...
As for the behavior of this group of media, it is actually normal. Back then, "Wolf Warrior 2" broke 3.7 and 3.8 billion in a row. At that time, the whole country prayed for the disaster-stricken compatriots in Sichuan, so starting from the 8.8th, the official Weibo did not update the blog or post posters. , Wu Jing even donated 1 million yuan to the disaster area...
Then! Sina Entertainment issued a press release on the evening of August 9th, " # The movie Wolf Warrior 2 # has exceeded 3.8 billion in box office. x-on:Wu Jing thanked the team and creators at the celebration banquet, saying: "My friends, thank you for your hard work! I know you have worked hard along the way. We have created history and records together. Your names are in the history of Chinese film. Thank you, thank you!" Then he drank three glasses of beer in a row, full of sincerity! ’
Evil intentions.
On the surface: Congratulations on Wolf Warrior 2!
Actual effect: The crew of "Wolf Warrior 2" ignored the national grief and celebrated together?
Later, Sina clarified under this Weibo post that ‘this was an ordinary dinner for the road show a few days ago’…
Did you choose to post the video from the past few days at this time?
This explanation is only clarified in the comments and will not be visible if you don’t click on the comments!
Moreover, after the release of "Wolf Warrior 2", Sina News paid little attention to it. The relevant news was either "Wu Jing denounced netizens" or "extra-priced fresh meat"...
Looking back at the movie "Three Lives, Three Worlds, Ten Miles of Peach Blossom", starting from the release of the theme song on July 20, there have been constant press releases, bombshells, Reuters, embarrassing dances, clarifications, unfairness... but there is no lock-in, and all other negatives are suppressed. Down!
After all, "Three Lives, Three Worlds, Ten Miles of Peach Blossom" is Ali's movie, and Weibo is Ali's private territory...
It's the same this time, "Subduing the Demon" is produced and distributed by Taopiaopiao.
Ahri will definitely try his best to snipe "The Wandering Earth"...
The effect...it must be there!
At least the fans who like "The Wandering Earth" are more united.
Watching a movie is a simple and enjoyable thing for ordinary people. Why are some media so angry and trying to take sides?
A rough analysis shows that with the rise of high-quality domestic genre films driven by cheese, the audience began to vote with their feet. The market that had always been self-contained and self-promising was impacted, and the "prosperity" of making quick money and bad money in the past gradually declined;
There is another way, probably because you have watched too many imported films, your logic is self-consistent, and you have developed antibodies to domestic science fiction.
Weibo is very lively…
Even Ziguang Pavilion came out to support "The Wandering Earth"...
As for the box office…
Starting from the second day of the Lunar New Year, the number of "Subduing Demons" dropped to 240 million in a single day, and "The Wandering Earth" reached 420 million in a single day;
On the third day of the Lunar New Year, "The Wandering Earth" went a step further and received 440 million in a single day;
On the fourth, fifth and sixth day of the Lunar New Year, more than 400 million yuan has been recorded in a single day...
On the seventh day of the Lunar New Year, "The Wandering Earth" took in 350 million...
Well, during the entire Spring Festival, "The Wandering Earth" took in a box office of 3 billion!
Similar to what theaters predict, there is indeed a 3 billion movie in this year’s Spring Festival, but it’s not “The Demon” – the latter’s 7-day box office is 860 million...
…
Throughout the Spring Festival, it feels like all the attention is on "The Wandering Earth"...
No, "Conquering the Demon" has also been on several hot searches - Wu Fanfan's acting skills, "Conquering the Demon" is ugly...
There is no doubt that Weibo agreed to be the hot search topic!
It should be an internal conflict between Alibaba and Sina...
It doesn't matter, the director of "The Wandering Earth" Guo Fan and the leading actor Wu Jinghuo...
"..."The Wandering Earth" is of course not perfect and has many flaws...it's just that the audience is tolerant. They have seen the filmmakers' efforts and naturally have sympathy. Just like Mr. Yu Zhi said, the audience is tolerant and has seen all the mistakes. Just don’t say it.”
Guo Fan started doing road shows on the second day of the Lunar New Year and rested for three or four hours every day...
Well, an energetic Lord too!
It stands to reason that the box office has exceeded 3 billion, and it is time to take a good rest. The second phase of the promotion plan has begun. Guo Fan led the team to directly launch the second round of the 21-city promotion plan...
"I mainly want to communicate with the audience and know their true feelings..."
Asked whether the film would be accepted by foreign audiences when it hits the international market, Guo Fan shook his head: "I don't care whether foreign audiences accept it or not. I want to serve the Chinese audience first. Our film has not considered any international market."
"Xudong told me that he has always opposed telling Chinese stories well so that the world can better understand China... He feels that the key to this is to do your own thing well, and there is no need to pursue international acceptance by making a movie. degree, consider how the international community handles plots, and how the international community handles values.”
"In terms of the way we tell stories, our ability to tell stories, and the cultural connotations of the stories we tell, we should have confidence instead of blindly limiting our future development by American standards. We should not follow the old path of being complacent, nor should we change our flag. The evil path!"
"The so-called cultural export is overflow rather than catering to the needs of others!"
"So how much did Xudong help "The Wandering Earth"?"
Guo Fan asked back: "He is a script reviewer...creative reviewer...can you tell me how helpful he is?"
"But Xudong doesn't seem to be involved in the promotion of "The Wandering Earth"?"
"...He went on vacation..."
