Chapter 396 The Contempt for "Nezha: The Devil Child Comes Into the World"!
An unprecedented martial arts trend is sweeping in!
Many people are wondering why martial arts can set off such a trend. Is it because Guo Jing and Huang Rong defend Xiangyang?
Is it because of the relationship between Yang Guo and Xiaolongnu?
But these elements are present in many styles of entertainment works. In fact, for many readers, they can't see the so-called historical charm. In fact, the most intuitive point is martial arts!
When the characters in the martial arts story suddenly roll backwards, do a kite flip, or run on the water, or take off with a toe, this martial arts feeling will instantly fill the whole book.
And a more intuitive point is that in Lao Zei's martial arts trilogy, a martial arts world full of idealism has been created.
Although this idealistic martial arts world is based on the realistic historical background.
Here, good is rewarded, evil is punished, efforts are rewarded, justice will eventually defeat evil, and lovers will eventually marry, but these stories may not necessarily come true in reality.
So in the past, some people have always said that martial arts novels are fairy tales for adults.
Because of this, people will have an unreal sense of substitution, and anyone can enter it and live in the way they like best.
…
With the continuous growth of sales, the martial arts trilogy of "The Legend of the Condor Heroes", "The Return of the Condor Heroes" and "The Heaven Sword and Dragon Saber" has become a hot topic among young people.
Many readers are excited but also feel a little regretful.
"Hey! If only Lao Zei could write a few more martial arts, I really want to see more martial arts protagonists written by Lao Zei!"
"Yes, that kind of cool swordsman, or that kind of playboy, both are fine!"
"Hey, it feels like Lao Zei doesn't write martial arts, which is a pity for the entire martial arts."
"Don't worry, you guys! Have you forgotten the end of the month?!"
"The end of the month?"
"Oh, right! Shit!"
Just when a group of martial arts fans were a little disappointed, some netizens reminded them and instantly made everyone realize one thing!
That is, the martial arts craze brought by Lao Zei is not over yet!
At the end of this month, the martial arts TV series "Little Fish and Flower" written by Lao Zei and directed by Lin Qiu is coming soon!
There is no need to worry that Lao Zei's work will be ruined by the director, because the director's name is Lin Qiu!
And without the harshness of the so-called original fans, more audiences can immerse themselves in this plot without worrying about spoilers.
The powerful combination of these two people has been witnessed countless times by the audience in the animation industry, but this is the first time in the TV industry!
Is the quality likely to be bad?
Changan's products must be high-quality!
These three martial arts works are enough to prove Lao Zei's understanding of martial arts, and the audiences of Xiazhou are looking forward to this TV series.
Before this, another fairy-tale TV series "The Journey of Flower" promoted by Changan gradually came to an end!
Female users are more active on blogs than male users, and "The Journey of Flower" itself is a TV series mainly facing the female market. It can be said that the popularity is comparable to Lao Zei's martial arts trilogy!
On blogs, it even tastes a bit higher!
There is no way, this is the audience gap between novels and TV series.
Readers who can calm down and read novels are definitely fewer than those who watch TV series, and the age span and audience are actually not as good as the latter.
TV series like "The Journey of Flower" can immerse everyone from fifty-year-old housewives to eighteen-year-old innocent girls.
Although the ratings on Movie are far inferior to those produced by Lin Qiu himself, the ratings have reached a good rating of 8.7 points!
You know, in this era, when it comes to Xianxia and Gurou, many viewers will unconsciously feel disgusted, and even think that "bad money drives out good money".
But in fact, as Xiazhou TV series may be the most popular type, Gurou's popularity has its reasons.
...
[Don't let down the common people and don't let down the lover, to the best Bai Zihua! ]
[Lin Qiu is really amazing, he can write such a script... In the field of Xianxia and Gurou, this "Flower Journey" is definitely the best. ]
[Wuwuwuwuwuwuwu! I cry every day when it is broadcast! Pay my tears! ]
[Reincarnation is the deepest tragedy. ]
[I have to say that Chang'an's production is really amazing. Whether it is a movie, a TV series or anime, the production is full. Isn't the fairy special effects of Hua Qiangu 10,000 times better than those of Xiazhou's "spiritual horse" special effects? I figured it out. It turns out that what I always hated was not ancient idol dramas or ancient costume romances, but "shoddy production"! ]
[I hope that in the future, ancient idol dramas in Xiazhou will be made according to the production standards of "The Journey of Flower"! ]
[I am curious about what it would be like if Lin Qiu directed this "The Journey of Flower" himself...]
[A lifetime of silence, a thought becomes a disaster! Hua Qiangu, protect Qiangu!! ]
[Bai Zihua, I curse you in the name of God, this life, forever. Immortal, indestructible! ]
[Women are ridiculous. They would rather bet everything just to prove that you love her. What's even more tragic is that Hua Qiangu, knowing the result, is still willing to be hurt by you again, just to see how important she is in your heart. ]
The broadcast results of "The Journey of Flower" are nothing short of terrifying.
The online broadcast volume has exceeded 10 billion, and the ratings on major satellite TV stations have repeatedly set new highs, leaving many male viewers confused.
"Is this TV series so popular?"
"Incredible..."
In their cognition, such fairy-tale works are far from being comparable to some high-quality TV series.
But when you look at the results, they are completely crushed.
This is the difference in audiences.
And let alone TV series, even movies, according to Xiazhou's gender statistics of moviegoers, 56% of the audience are female. Only some movies with male audiences will have a majority of male audiences.
The emergence of such a sky-high ratings has made many film and television companies in Xiazhou black-eyed!
Nowadays, Changan Film and Television Company is not only making breakthroughs in high-quality film and television dramas and the animation industry, but now it is also trying to take a bite of the biggest cake in the female market!
It is no joke to say that Chang'an Film and Television Company has driven the "quality improvement" of the entire Xiazhou entertainment industry on its own, because there is harm when there is comparison. The film and television companies in the entertainment industry know very well how great the influence of public opinion is.
If the new drama of their own company is ridiculed by the public because of shoddy production, then the reputation and public opinion of the entire company will be in trouble.
This has led to major film and television companies, even if they are traffic dramas, to ensure the quality of filming.
Whether the cost is high or low is not the key to the success of ancient puppet dramas. For example, the previous life "The Imperial Coroner" achieved a good score of 8 points on Douban with a low cost, web drama, and not many traffic actors.
There is also "Ancient Love Song", which is also low-cost, with a score of 9.9 on Bilibili and 8.6 on Douban. It was once considered the best costume drama of the year.
Only when the entire industry tends to be healthy can more high-quality works be produced.
Some companies and crews who are devoted to making conscientious dramas will eventually wait for the day of blooming, unless...
Your story itself is not good enough.
Low cost is not a reason for bad dramas.
However, although Changan Film and Television Company has made a move on the female market, there is still a big piece of cake that Changan Film and Television Company will not touch.
This piece of cake is called "traffic idol", which is very likely to be the biggest piece of cake.
…
The works of Changan Film and Television Company, Lin Qiu's works, have actually been breaking through.
However, the works before this are more or less within the cognition of the audience and fans, even classic works such as "Leon: The Professional" are like this.
But the format of Changan's next movie has raised the expectations of all fans to the peak.
[Animated movie? Animated movie in Xiazhou? ! ]
[In Yingzhou, it seems that there has been such a format before, but the box office results seem to be quite average. This time it is still Lao Zei and Lin Qiu who joined forces. To be honest, I still have confidence in the two of them. ]
[Confidence? Haven't you seen the trailer of "Nezha: The Devil Boy Comes to the World"? I really can't accept that Nezha! I feel that this magic change will definitely fail... I'm really not questioning it randomly...]
[+1! What image is Nezha? Isn't he a young god with many heads and arms holding several magic weapons? How come he is such an ugly little brat? Have Lao Zei and Lin Qiu lost even this aesthetic sense...】
[Um, I am Lin Qiu, Lao Zei's iron fan for nearly five years. To be honest, this work is the one I most... least optimistic about. 】
[Anyway, no matter how pessimistic I am, I will still watch it to see what these two people are doing. 】
[I believe in Lao Zei and Lin Qiu's artistic aesthetics. I haven't felt this kind of national doubt for a long time! I am so excited, brothers! It's time to see Lao Zei and Lin Qiu slap each other in the face again! 】
Since Lin Qiu and Lao Zei became famous, they have slapped each other in the face countless times.
As a result, many readers, fans, and spectators have unreserved trust in these two people!
Even for unpopular works such as martial arts novels, Lao Zei said he would write, and only a small part of them questioned it. Most of the comments still believe in Lao Zei!
But this time...
It's different.
...
The reason is one.
Because the form of animated films is a rare form in Xiazhou.
Movie fans have never had much contact with it, let alone any knowledge of this form of film.
To give a simple example, when did domestic animated films begin to flourish in the past?
The most important sign is the 2015 "The Return of the Great Sage", which has a cumulative box office of nearly 500 million, setting various box office records for domestic animated films, and has a score of 8.7 on the well-known domestic film website Douban.
Before "The Return of the Great Sage", many viewers' best impression of domestic animation was the technology of "Dragon Nest", so when they first saw the flood of praise for "The Return of the Great Sage", they refused to admit it.
From today's perspective, it is naturally outrageous, but the emergence of any new thing in history needs to be accompanied by criticism, and animated films are like this.
What really brought domestic animated films to a new height was "Nezha: The Devil Child Comes into the World", with its total box office ranking among the top ten domestic films. As an animation, it surpassed the box office of the domestic science fiction milestone "The Wandering Earth", so you can imagine how wide its audience is.
Even Japanese anime movies did not develop as early as expected until the emergence of the "Miyazaki Hayao" series of anime movies, as well as "Your Name", "Weathering With You" and movies like "Demon Slayer: Kimetsu no Yaiba Mugen Train" The emergence of high-grossing animated films like "The Movie" brought the form of animated films to the mainstream.
From the niche to the public, the same thing is that it has been achieved in the past ten years.
In this world, understanding of anime movies is lacking, so it will naturally be criticized.
It is because it is a work produced by Changan Film and Television Company that it has received so much attention.
…
Reason two.
That's because the design of Nezha in "Nezha: The Devil Boy Comes to the World" is really a wife... so ugly!
Audiences who have experienced the movie before and after its release in 2019 know exactly how public opinion on modeling reached on the entire Internet after the trailer for this movie was released.
Discussions such as "Why is Nezha so ugly?" and "I can't accept Nezha's image at all" are often discussed on forums.
It existed in the previous life, and it naturally exists in this world!
The answer to why this happens is simple.
Naturally, there is no need to elaborate too much on the popularity of Nezha. One of the three giants of mythology, Sun Wukong, Yang Jian, and Nezha are the most popular existences in mythological works and legends.
In the previous life, the audience's image of Nezha should have originated from the boy in white in the 1979 cartoon "Nezha Makes the Sea". All subsequent images of Nezha were quite positive, handsome and handsome, including "The Legend of Nezha" In "It's him, it's him, it's him, our hero - Little Nezha", the image is quite cute.
Naturally, I cannot accept such a comparison.
In today's world, although there are no novels such as "Journey to the West" and "The Romance of the Gods", Nezha's popularity is still very high. Although many people on the Internet are now "cleansing" the old thief, Lin Qiu, saying Nezha itself comes from the mythology of ancient Persia and ancient Indian religion. It is ugly in itself, but it still cannot be recognized by most viewers.
Since it is an entertainment work, it has to face such comments from the audience.
…
Not to mention the audience, even the entire Changan Animation film production team twitched at the corners of their mouths when they saw Nezha modeling.
"Is this okay?"
"Is this really okay?"
"What a magical transformation..."
They are professional animation people, but even they are questioning...
However, during the production process from last year to this year, Lin Qiu has always instilled this concept into the members of the production team, that is, "there is no problem"!
Since it is a demon boy, since it is necessary to embody the rebellion of the demon boy and embody the spirit of "I am the Buddha or the devil, and my fate is up to me, I cannot control it", then there must be a breakthrough in terms of image.
"My destiny is up to me and not God", these seven words have become very "awkward" from a modern perspective. They were the central idea of the online novel ten years ago, but they can be found in "Nezha: The Devil Boy" In the movie "Arrived into the World", when Nezha shouts "I can't help it, my fate is up to me", many viewers will burst into tears.
Only by subverting tradition can it be refreshing!
Amid such expectations and doubts, the release date of "Nezha: The Devil Boy Comes to the World" is getting closer and closer!
…
The summer season has always been a battleground for many film and television companies.
As the longest movie-watching period of the year, the advantage of the summer season is that it can fill up the four-week theater schedule.
Unlike the Spring Festival, more than 70% of the box office of most movies comes from the week from the first day to the seventh day of the new year, and word-of-mouth will ferment like crazy in a short period of time.
The summer season is a little different, but the competition is no easier than the Spring Festival season.
The biggest reason is that the summer season will face not only internal competition in Xiazhou, but also competition from the Kyushu film world.
For example, blockbusters from Mizhou and Yingzhou are unlikely to be released specifically during the Spring Festival in Xiazhou.
But it will definitely be released in the summer season, because this is the largest category in the Kyushu film market, bar none.
For example, this year’s summer season is almost entirely occupied by overseas film productions.
Mizhou's sci-fi blockbuster "Planet 3" grossed 3 billion in box office in Xiazhou in just ten days after its release.
Yingzhou's literary film "The Scream" has received a huge reputation and currently has a revenue of 2 billion.
There are also the comedy film "Chasing Dreams" from Indiana and the thriller "From the Underground Garden" from Yingzhou, both of which have good quality, reputation and box office.
Xiazhou movie fans enjoyed watching it.
However, none of the new films of Lin Qiu, Ye Zhiyuan, and Zhou Kai have participated in the competition for the summer movie world of Kyushu, which is a bit regretful after all.
Of course, so far, no one, no film and television company, no director, will regard "Nezha: The Devil Boy Comes into the World" as a real opponent.
No one would have thought that such an animated movie would create a box office miracle!
Under this kind of contempt, even ignorance, "The Devil Boy of Nezha Comes to the World"...
It’s coming! !
…
At the same time, Lin Qiudu, who is filming a movie in Mizhou, specially promoted "Nezha: The Devil Boy Comes into the World" on major social media!
Lin Qiu knows very well the terrifying energy contained in this movie! (End of chapter)
