Chapter 932 It’s Just a Fan Monetization Movie, What’s There to Criticize? (33)
The director of "Thousands of Arrows Pierce the Heart" is teacher Wang Jing.
This teacher is not an honorific title, he is really a teacher - a professor and master's degree supervisor in the Photography Department of BJ Film Academy.
Self-proclaimed amateur director…
The technique, including the choice of subject matter, is very...academic.
"All Year Long" and "I Am a Vegetative" are typical examples.
Part of the funding for his filming was provided by the film channel, and the other part was a grant from the Youth Film Studio...
From the beginning, he never wanted to make a lot of money.
It’s very good and very freeing!
In fact, he filmed "Invisible Killing" in 2009 - it tells a story about a human flesh search that led to the death of a cheating lover who committed suicide. It was quite suspenseful.
The satirical meaning of the work is quite great. It not only satirizes extreme and irrational behavior, but also explores the issue of human flesh search and the bottom line of the law~
Well, three years before "Search"!
The problem is that this movie is a TV movie exclusively for movie channels. It has not been released in theaters at all, and it has not been promoted in any sense...
He himself is quite satisfied with the current situation...
Although his insistence on art and content connotation makes it difficult for his films to win favor from investors, obtain support from theaters for scheduling, and obtain large marketing expenses.
It stands to reason that his films are very suitable for the film festival route...
The problem is that his films are not festival-oriented enough. Although they are mainly realist, they are not dark enough...
Not too fringe!
"Thousands of Arrows Pierce the Heart" is different. This one is not called a literary film. It has a realistic and documentary feel. There is no sunshine and no literary sadness.
This is a living face in life. The limitations of everyone's life are calmly explained by the director.
——Life makes people shrink and succumb little by little, and most of their lives are over. Fate is always wrapped around people as they move forward. Who knows where the fork in the road will take them to the end of the road.
Yan Bingyan did a great job!
This movie deserves a film festival award.
In addition, there is "Dear Child". The script has been adapted. The main plot is about losing a child, finding the child, and how the child gets along with his original family after he comes back...
There is no intention to whitewash the buyer!
This movie, Chen Hao + Huang Bo, definitely deserves awards for their acting skills!
As for "Sunshine Shines"... it is actually a type of realistic film like "A Thousand Arrows Pierce the Heart". It is not a positive energy film that teaches people to get out of the shadows and must reconcile. It is precisely about facing the darkness, rugged and broken life...
In life, there are lives, there are deaths, there are regrets that cannot be undone, there are fates that cannot be changed, and then we carry something and continue to live.
These three movies, next year's major awards... no, this year's major film awards, will definitely put pressure on "The Grandmaster"!
Especially "Sunshine" is a Hong Kong film, with Hui Yinghong as the heroine and Chen You as the hero...
Officially released next month…
…
"The Grandmaster" has a pretty good box office. It was released on Tuesday and grossed 167 million in the first six days, suppressing "One Shot" and "Zodiac"...
Wang Jiawei is already very satisfied and publicly said, ""The Grandmaster" is the highest-grossing movie in my film career! ’
According to media predictions, the total box office of "The Grandmaster" should be around 350 million.
Then, "The Lover" was released, with a box office of 24.8 million on the first day, directly ending "The Grandmaster"'s box office winning streak.
Not only that, the next day, "The Holy Love" took another 28 million box office, and the newly released "Happy Home" actually had a single-day box office of 14 million. The two movies directly suppressed the film schedule of "The Grandmaster" to about 15%, and the single-day box office The box office dropped by tens of millions...
The box office performance of "Love Saint" is understandable - it is produced by Tianmei, it is a comedy, and the starring cast is all familiar faces...
The question is why "Happy Home"?
It’s not even a complete feature film!
According to the words of many netizens, ""Happy Home" is a movie that you delete in the recycle bin and the recycle bin despises you. "I suspect that the director doesn't know what he is filming!" ’
It's really bad, but it's also really profitable - the Happy Family still has a lot of fans!
In fact, they are willing to make money by starring in movies, which at least means that they are still willing to put in the hard work. Later, they directly receive gifts - anyway, they can exchange money by listing them on second-hand websites, so why do they have to work so hard to make movies and monetize them?
Isn't it wrong that they don't know this?
You must know that Wang Han once said in "Mars Intelligence Agency", "They will take good care of the guests on their show even if they don't give gifts. Fans will feel a little awkward if they give gifts."
What's more, you don't know whether the fans' money is earned through hard work or you asked your parents for it. This money can be used in places where it should go more, so resolutely put an end to it! ’
Back to the topic, Shen Xudong didn't pay attention to this at all - "Love" was shot intensively these days, and he worked three long night shifts in a row, and it was finally completed!
——Bai Jingting has to participate in the promotion of "Tang Detective", and Shen Xudong also has to prepare for the promotion of "Tang Detective", so he can't always stay on the set!
At the final scene, the actors were a little reluctant to leave...
The actors in the "Love" crew are all young people in their twenties. After one and a half months of filming, the group of people got along pretty well...
The movie is finished, and I don’t know when we can get together again.
Shen Xudong was speechless: "Okay, it's not like we won't meet each other anymore. Our drama should be released during the Lunar New Year next year. By then, we have to promote it together! In addition, PPTV is planning to make a detective variety show called "Celebrity Detective". I will All of you recommended it..."
"Really? Thank you director!"
"You're welcome...I also think there will be a chemical effect if you two get together...behave well then!"
…
"Love" has finished filming, but Shen Xudong has not prepared a filming banquet - it will be together with the celebration banquet when the time comes!
After the filming, Chen Xi drove him home...
On the way, various comments were made about "Happy Home":
"Movies like "Happy Everybody" are just money swindles. They are pure farces with no plot or acting! Moreover, they desperately call on their fans to watch it on the show and in the media. This kind of marketing method is too rude and rude!"
"I really don't understand. A movie like this has a box office of over 10 million for three consecutive days, and the film schedule is only 20%... What do the audience think?"
Shen Xudong yawned: "How was the box office of "The Lover"?"
"It's not bad. It's estimated that there will be 200 million in the first seven days..." At this point, Chen Xi became angry again: "If "Happy Home" hadn't competed with us to schedule the film, there would have been at least 250 million!"
Shen Xudong suppressed his sleepiness and said, "Just think that this is a fan-monetized work starring the Happy Family...don't care!"
"I don't want to care about it, but it does occupy my film schedule...and the promotion of "Thailand" continues to be unfair, saying, ""Thailand" was also criticized for being vulgar..."..."
"Oh? Did you get into trouble again?"
"Yes, there were too many negative reviews, and the director came out and responded by saying, 'Don't bother,' "Thailand" was also criticized for being vulgar. Maybe "Happy Home" will also create a box office miracle!"
Shen Xudong shook his sleepy head and cursed: "Idiot..."
