Chapter 959: Fan Movie, Don’t Worry!
A black business car drove out of Ningbo Lishe Airport and headed north...
The destination is Xiangshan.
To be precise: Xiangshan Film and Television Base.
In the car, Liao Gaoxiang complained to Shen Xudong: "I really admire you, don't use the air conditioner at home on a hot day!"
"...I'm too lazy to stay in the capital!"
Shen Xudong replied casually, and then Zhao Xin, who was sitting in the driver's seat, complained: "Who can say a good word for "Tiny Times"!"
"When did I say nice things?" Shen Xudong felt aggrieved: "What I said is, 'This kind of fan movie, don't care about it, don't discuss it, let alone abuse it. If you are not its audience, don't contribute to the box office, let alone the popularity. …'Isn't this objective enough?"
"When everyone is criticizing, don't you think your so-called objectivity is a bit ridiculous?"
"...Then I'll scold you too?"
"If you keep scolding me, can you come up with something new?"
That is, no matter how awesome you are, you can’t compare to Wang Sicong’s words, “Little Times fans, please unfollow.” 'Well?
Now, attacking Guo Jingming has become a certain consciousness.
Liao Gaoxiang answered: "That's right! Look at how Zhou Liming and Senior Brother Shi Hang scolded them!"
"They're not scolding each other, they're just trying to show off the heat..."
Shen Xudong has always believed that watching movies should not be a sin.
You can scold the author, but there is no reason to use words to greet the audience who watch it.
Regarding literary and artistic works, everyone in this world has the freedom to like or dislike them, but what is unacceptable is pretentious behavior based on sophisticated calculations.
Shi Hang also described the exchange of insults between him and Guo Jingming's fans as a sword debate at Mount Huashan...
The problem is, you are a celebrity, but Guo Jingming’s fans are not. Compared to fans, Shi Hang is the one with the right to speak!
This is actually bullying—discourse bullying!
However, Liao Gaoxiang and Zhao Xin did not think so. Zhao Xin said: "If it is one-on-one, of course they are just trying to gain popularity, but the reality is that tens of thousands of Guo's fans directly go to their comment area to insult... which is equivalent to Being blocked by tens of thousands of people at the door of the house and using all kinds of obscene and obscene words to greet them... expecting them to not retaliate... is too embarrassing! They didn't say any dirty words, I think they are already restrained enough!"
Shen Xudong shook his head: "What makes Guo Jingming an outsider? If he was from a serious film school, even if there were criticisms, they would not be on such a large scale. Even XX Daily came out to criticize!"
…
Oh, the three of them went to Xiangshan to visit...
To be more precise, Shen Xudong came to visit the team, while Zhao Xin and Liao Gaoxiang joined the team.
Liao Gaoxiang was responsible for the preparations for "The Eight Parts of the Dragon", while Zhao Xin was responsible for the preparations for "Crane Huating".
It’s all a costume drama!
"Jingjue Ancient City" was launched on PPTV, directly attracting more than 6 million new paid VIPs to PPTV, and then "Soul Ferry" was launched, adding another 4 million...
Almost every work will bring new paid VIPs, two works every month...
As of July, all five dramas have been released, and the number of VIP paying users has stabilized at 15 million...
Don't worry, the ultimate move hasn't been released yet!
"The Empress' Martial Arts Strategy", "Wuxin Master" and "Want to See You" will not be released until August or September, especially the blockbuster "Three Kingdoms", which is still in the late stages and is expected to be officially launched on PPTV in December...
This year’s goal is to add 20 million paying users and stabilize the number of regular paying users at more than 25 million!
These all require content, and quality content.
"Tian Long Ba Bu" and "Crane Huating" are both high-quality content...
The three people just talked about "Tiny Times" because "Tiny Times" triggered a wave of public opinion - criticism from the entire Internet.
There is no way, the fans of "Tiny Times" are at the bottom of the contempt chain...
But "Tiny Times" is really strong, with a box office of 80.69 million on the first day, 62.68 million on the second day, 69.66 million on the third day, 55.44 million on the fourth day, and a box office of 268 million in the first four days...
It even surpasses Zhao Yanzi's "All Things Grow"!
The performance in the first week was ranked third behind "Tang Detective" and "The Thieves"!
"BJ Meets in Seattle", which sold 700 million some time ago, only had a box office of 92.8 million in its first week...
However, the reputation of "Tiny Times" - in addition to the fans of the original work, the audience criticized it, and the veteran directors in the film industry felt that the entire industry was insulted!
To a certain extent...it's actually a kind of jealousy.
In fact, the biggest reason why "Tiny Times" is rejected by many people is that its director is Guo Jingming...
If another director had come up with something like this, he might have been praised...
The starring team, except for Yang Xiaomi, is all newbies.
It's an amazing achievement for a play to attract so many people.
Moreover, the cost of this drama was very low and it made a lot of money...
But it is Guo Jingming’s work, so it naturally carries original sin!
Speaking of "Tiny Times", in fact, if a bad movie can be mentioned in various ways and even be remembered by the times, it must have done something right!
Because other bad movies, such as "Residence in the Fuchun Mountains", "Dream Showbiz", "Legend of the Gods" and so on, although the ratings are also very low, everyone is criticizing, and they are also on the pillar of shame, but you Will you remember it?
What do you remember?
"Tiny Times" is different. From the character names to the plots and lines, everything is viral.
This is not easy.
"I also wish her from the bottom of my heart that from now on, just like my life, it will start to rot and stink!"
"Wear some clothes! Don't you feel sick?"
"Lin Xiao, you are so advanced in cursing people now. You really can't understand it if you don't have a bit of vicious IQ!"
Why is it so popular?
The biggest reason lies in its rotten sincerity - a rare and very sincere vulgarity.
It's not the kind of bad drama created for the sake of sensationalism, but something that Guo Jingming tried his best to shoot!
He put great care into making it from the beginning...
Not to deceive fools...
In a sense, "Little Times" reflects Guo Jingming's self-perception, and this understanding is very real and bold - money is important and very beautiful!
So it became a show off of wealth...
Comparing "Left Ear" to "Left Ear", "Left Ear" almost copied the model of "Tiny Times". The two movies were equally bad, but the actors were extremely suitable for their roles, and later they became famous handsome guys and beauties in the entertainment industry.
But very few people mention "Zuo Er" because the value model of "Zuo Er" is outdated - the main plot of "Zuo Er" is Li Ba La's self-sacrificial love. Xu Yi is ruined for his whole life. Ear and Zhang Yang together...
Now it just feels disgusting.
One netizen said it very well: Great times have great works of art.
In a hurried, chaotic, money-worshiping, shameless era, it is normal to have such an unforgettable bad movie.
Guo Jingming is the honest writer of this era, and his childhood is the background of this era.
Shen Xudong has no opinion on "Tiny Times", it's just a fan movie. Jay Chou can make "The Tomb", and Mayday can directly make the concert into a big screen production "Mayday Noah's Ark"...
There is no reason why Guo Jingming can't film "Little Times"...
