Chapter 1142 Phenomenal Level
No one thinks that Shen Xudong is taking a random shot...
Shen Xudong has the credibility he has accumulated over the years. Even Ah Li and his gang have to admire his accurate judgment on the market!
Then he said 6 billion...
I believe it, but everyone wants to know the basis for his judgment...
Shen Xudong: "For factors such as schedule, box office ceiling...the quality of the movie itself, you can wait three days before reporting. The situation should be clear by then..."
"Then you are not optimistic about "The Founding of an Army"?"
"It's hard to say... Maoyan also invested in "The Founding of an Army"..."
"Then what are the advantages of "Wolf Warrior 2"?"
"You will know after seeing it..."
Well, actually Shen Xudong doesn’t understand why “Wolf Warrior 2” is so crazy!
You want to talk about word of mouth...
The reputation of "Wolf Warrior 2" can only be considered good, but it is incomparable to "The Wandering Earth"...
But regardless of the number of moviegoers or the box office, "Wolf Warrior 2" far exceeds "The Wandering Earth"...
Viewability?
Yes, "Wolf Warrior 2" is very good, but... "I'm Not the God of Medicine" and "Operation Red Sea" are not bad either...
At the right time?
Main theme blessing?
Then this stuff is pure nonsense, let alone "The Founding of the Army" in the same period, "Changjin Lake" is so timely, and it is far behind "Wolf Warrior 2" in the number of movie viewers!
In fact, before "Wolf Warrior 2", no one thought that patriotism and the main theme could make big money.
In the past few years, with the exception of "Wolf Warrior" and "Operation Mekong", the most impressive film works with the main theme basically had a mandatory requirement to book the venue, and then they could not be kept as pure public welfare works.
Many people even subconsciously think that patriotism and main theme works are vulgar!
Star cards…
Instead of talking about "The Founding of an Army", let's talk about "Hunting in the Sky". Fan Xiaopang's popularity dwarfs that of Wu Jing!
Higher visibility and the same patriotic theme also resulted in failure.
In fact, whether a movie can create a record depends on the right time, place, people and people.
"Wolf Warrior 2" was released at the same time as no other film in the same period.
The domestic market is developing rapidly and the Internet's word-of-mouth promotion capabilities are increasing, which is a favorable location;
He meets the quality standards of blockbuster commercial movies and is called Renhe...
But these are just the reasons why Wolf Warrior 2 is such a hit, not the reason why Wolf Warrior 2 has such a high box office.
The consensus reached by "Wolf Warrior 2" among the audience is the largest consensus in the Chinese film market: a consensus of 160 million moviegoers.
If you don't have more than 160 million moviegoers, you can't surpass "Wolf Warrior 2"!
Wolf Warrior 2 is a typical example of the powerful combination of various factors. It cannot be explained by ordinary theme themes, action movies, borrowing the east wind, and revenge-style viewing.
Trying to summarize these factors and then copy and paste them won’t work.
And all attempts based on these simple reasons have been tried by capital parties - they just don't work.
If I have to find a reason, I can only say that "Wolf Warrior 2" is one of the few movies that can poke the G-spot of Chinese people.
No matter how good the Hollywood movie is, it is not the Chinese G-spot that is poked.
Many people clamor that art has no borders, and then confuse it with the G-spot, which has no borders. This is wrong, of course the G-spot has borders!
Hollywood has always relied on its powerful film industry to promote the G-spot of the American cultural circle to the world. However, in fact, each cultural circle around the world has its own topics that are more concerned about, or points of greater anxiety.
What is the G-spot of Chinese audiences?
Prove that China is strong!
Because the past hundred years or so has been the history of China being easily ridiculed because of its weakness.
In addition, "Wolf Warrior 2" is indeed a qualified work...
Naturally, history was made!
Of course, this is a summary after the fact, not a prediction in advance...
…
The momentum of "Wolf Warrior 2" exceeds that of the original time and space:
Over 100 million in 3 hours on the first day!
Over 1.2 billion in the first weekend!
After 8 days of release, the box office exceeded "Fast and Furious 8". After 10 days of release, it took in 3.1 billion. It counterattacked "Total War" and ranked second in film history. After 15 days of release, the box office exceeded 4 billion. In 16 days, the box office reached 4.18 billion. Successfully topped the box office record in mainland film history...
And the momentum continues unabated, with box office receipts of more than 100 million in a single day!
In contrast, "The Founding of the Army", which gathered 100 young actors in the same period, was tepid and could not break through 400 million;
The Super IP-backed "Gu Jian Qi Tan: Liu Yue Zhao Ming" broke out in the scandal of fans locking out the movie and was unable to achieve its expected goals - once again proving that popularity, traffic and data are nothing in front of movies!
The two films announced the bankruptcy of the big IP and small meat model almost at the same time, and this conclusion has been verified in the 2016 Lunar New Year film "The Ferryman" and "The Demon Subduer".
It’s just that against the background of the heavy industrial work of “Wolf Warrior 2”, it becomes clearer…
In addition, the term spiritual shareholder was born!
The so-called spiritual shareholders refer to the fact that the box office of "Wolf Warrior 2" has nothing to do with ordinary people. The money it makes will definitely not be distributed to the audience, but the audience just scans Maoyan all day long to see the latest box office and do it for them. Various publicity…
This time, Maoyan wins!
More than 30 million users have been added…
Well, it’s not just a matter of chance. Maoyan is also an investor in “Wolf Warrior 2”, accounting for 25% of the investment amount!
For the promotion of "Wolf Warrior 2", Maoyan launched a cloud road show model, inviting screenwriters, executive directors, including starring actors, and many participating actors to live broadcast the story behind "Wolf Warrior 2"...
Pay a lot of bandwidth costs!
In addition, many popular people have also emerged, including one named Yin Shanshan...
It doesn’t matter what it’s called, the key is that there’s a label in front of it: Professor of Chinese Drama!
What are they talking about: ‘The movie is too bloody and violent, with too many killing scenes, cannons bombing indiscriminately, and the dead people are meaningless;’ ‘Wu Jing is psychopathic’, ‘selling blood’…
Shen Xudong can't bear it anymore...
Directly retorted on Weibo: As a Chinese opera teacher, film reviews must also be consistent with the teacher's identity. Saying that the director is mentally ill is your intuitive feeling about the movie?
unacceptable!
You said that "Wolf Warrior" does not have much depth, and I agree with it, because it is not a film that explores human nature and reflects the resolution of international issues.
Reviews sell blood, the villain is sadistic, and the director is psychopathic...
This angle is very tricky. I think there is either something wrong with your brain, or you have received money but don’t know how to discredit it!
China National Theater is my alma mater, and I have always been grateful for the training provided by China National Theater. I originally thought it was very interesting for the teachers of China National Theater to comment on a phenomenal movie, so I watched it with a learning attitude...
The film reviews I’m looking forward to seeing are: What’s not good about “Wolf Warrior 2”, what aspects may not work, or are somewhat deficient in the eyes of professionals; if we continue to make “Wolf Warrior 3”, what should be changed, probably from Changeable suggestions from a professional’s perspective…
After reading the whole video, the film review has no focus. The entire video sometimes speculates that the director is narcissistic, and sometimes infers that the director is a pervert. Apart from personal attacks, it is almost difficult to refine the core point of view...
Is this called a movie review?
The dwarf in the crowd always stares at the soles of others' feet, making him look tall.
In my opinion, there is really nothing professional about this film review!
It feels like a painting teacher who sees a picture of a fruit girl and screams: Oh my God! How can you draw a fruit girl! It's so obscene and disgusting!
People nearby were shocked: There is something wrong with this painting. You can analyze the light and shadow techniques or the author's life, but you say, 'The painting of the fruit girl is too vulgar! ’
For such words to appear in the mouth of an industry insider, it is hard to imagine that China Drama would actually invite such a person to be a teacher...
In addition, I would like to say a few words about the movie "Wolf Warrior 2". "Wolf Warrior 2" definitely has shortcomings. For example, the lines are a bit stiff, the plot is too scattered, the narrative is unclear, there are too many plots, and the twists are a bit stiff - this is the fault. I memorized it because the film originally scheduled for "Wolf Warrior 2" was too sensitive and couldn't be filmed, so the beginning was "Wolf Warrior 2" and the second half was "Wolf Warrior 3"...
After reading it, I felt mentally excited and tired...
And the most important CG special effects.
I'm not very satisfied with the special effects, especially compared to the first two "Transformers" films...
But its greatest significance lies in its subsequent impact on the Chinese film market.
From the perspective of film production, "Wolf Warrior 2" beats Xiaoxianrou works of the same period, which will help improve the current situation of excessive pursuit of Xiaoxianrou in China's film investment and production process;
At the same time, "Wolf Warrior 2" gave a certain fan of the same period a heavy blow to the movie, which may wake up some film and television practitioners who are constantly speculating on IP based on an online novel!
Finally, I want to say that there is something really wrong with our academic education. It prides itself on being elite, is out of touch with the masses, and looks down on the public’s aesthetics...
I don’t blame them, China is developing too fast, and Chinese film technology is progressing even faster. Next, please look forward to "Operation Red Sea"...
