Chapter 396: Phenomenon, the Ceiling of Art Films

This world has always been a winner-takes-all world. As long as you succeed, everything you say is rational, pertinent, and correct.

However, if you fail, then everything you say is bullshit, and it will even become evidence for everyone to mock you.

For example, Yang Tian, ​​the words she said when she opened the champagne at halftime are now all used as evidence for everyone to mock her.

Another example is Huang Ning. Huang Ning has made 5 movies here, and each one has a higher box office than the last. It can be said that Huang Ning has never failed.

In such a situation, Huang Ning initially thought that "No Casualties" was an art film, and he thought it would be no problem for the box office to reach 1 billion.

What's wrong with art films? ? ?

Huang Ning always believes that the market for art films is huge, provided that you have to let the audience in. For this reason, Huang Ning specially invited two billion-dollar movie emperors, who are both very popular with the public, and their box office reputation is also quite strong.

In such a situation, Huang Ning feels that art films cannot be pretentious, but they cannot go the so-called all the way or laugh, which is not advanced.

The core of advanced comedy must be tragic.

Just like art films, Huang Ning did not like the so-called self-admiration and even unrealistic plots that Ning Ping and others had done before.

The entertainment industry is what Huang Ning is good at, and the entertainment industry is often close to ordinary audiences, but the audience may not know the various things inside the entertainment industry.

So what Huang Ning has to do at this time is to deconstruct these plots, but he thinks that if he just enjoys it, it will be low-level, so he has to be real.

One star’s house collapse is not enough, so two stars’ houses collapse, and these two stars are arrogant and arrogant, but they have excellent personality settings on the screen.

This is a kind of high-level satire.

In theory, Huang Ning’s idea is not wrong, but he is wrong in educating the audience.

Think about when he was making movies, when he first started, how did he get those box office? ?

Isn’t it because of his respect for the audience, isn’t it because he just wants to make the audience happy? ? ?

As a result, it is now self-destructive, and then he still wants to educate the audience, and even define the level of appreciation.

This is nonsense.

Lin Xing didn't have time to watch the movie "No Casualties", so he didn't know what the movie was like, but Ning Ping went to see it.

Ning Ping was also invited to the premiere of "No Casualties".

After all, there is no need to fight again in the summer season. The market is almost dead, why fight now? ?

Ning Ping and Huang Ning are just personal grudges, but the two of them still praise each other in public.

When the movie "Sunspots" premiered, Huang Ning also came to support it, and he praised Ning Ping a little when he spoke.

Then when the movie "No Casualties" premiered, Ning Ping also came, and it was also a wave of praise.

Both sides praised each other commercially.

But privately, Ning Ping really felt that the movie "No Casualties" was a bit too flat. He felt that Huang Ning said that he had said it very well before, but why did he forget it all when it was his turn to shoot an art film? ?

As for the words Huang Ning said in the interview, Ning Ping found it even more funny.

The most taboo thing for those who make art films now is to act like a father to the audience, and what Huang Ning said before when he talked about Ning Ping was not to be self-admiring and to respect the audience.

But when it was Huang Ning's turn, did he forget everything? ?

In the past three days, the box office of "No Casualties" has not even reached 40 million, which can be said to be a complete failure.

Because of this, now basically all the movies rely on "Sunspots" to save the market.

The movie market is very cruel.

Some movies originally wanted to avoid "Sunspots" and "No Casualties". After all, according to the concerns of some movies, the screenings of these two movies are too high, so they must stay away from them.

At least stay away for half a month.

As a result, "No Casualties" actually failed at the beginning. Because of the failure of this movie, the screenings of "I Want to Marry You" increased a little, and the single-day box office remained at 10 million.

At the same time, because the reputation of "Back to Time" collapsed, this movie only had 6 million per day under the high screening.

"No Casualties" only had about 10 million on the second and third days.

Among the remaining old films, several strong old films also maintained a single-day box office of about 6 million.

After three days, "Sunspots" has pulled up the market because of its consecutive single-day box office of over 100 million, but this is not enough.

The summer season does rely on top movies, but it also relies on new movies. The top movies drive the market, and then new movies enter the market, and then the whole market comes alive.

Look, for three consecutive days, because "Sunspots" continued to break 100 million, the whole market came alive, and even some old films increased their box office by millions.

For this reason, all parties are now optimistic about "Sunspots", and now it depends on how much box office this movie can get next Monday.

After all, June 19 is the Dragon Boat Festival, and June 20 and June 21 are rest days, so the real test of whether "Sunspots" can continue to explode will be on June 22.

Starting from June 22, Ning Ping will also take many actors to run road shows together.

Ning Ping was really happy and excited about the party tonight.

He only said more because he was drunk. Of course, Ning Ping had reason to drink more based on the current box office.

The next day, everyone went to Shanghai to start the road show.

Although the single-day box office on June 23 fell slightly, it still broke 100 million and reached 120 million.

On June 24, "Sunspots" had a single-day box office of 110 million.

On June 24, "Sunspots" had a single-day box office of 108 million.

On June 25, "Sunspots" had a single-day box office of 101 million.

"Sunspots" shocked the entire industry for four consecutive working days. No one expected that "Sunspots" would save the market so fiercely.

Originally, everyone thought that the box office of "Sunspots" would probably fall on weekdays.

As a result, no one expected that the single-day box office of "Sunspots" would break 100 million for four consecutive working days.

According to the box office statistics as of June 25, the box office of "Sunspots" was 739 million yuan in 7 days.

It's really amazing.

Although there are three new films released on Friday, "Sunspots" is still ranked first in the schedule, because everyone feels that the potential of "Sunspots" has not been fully tapped.

On the one hand, Bohai Films' promotion of "Sunspots" is still very good. The promotion is not suicidal, but gradually gained more support and love.

In short, the reputation of "Sunspots" has been strongly fermented in these 7 days.

During the road show of "Sunspots", many of the main creators were relaxed in the interviews, not only relaxed but also met the various requirements of the audience. Of course, the requirements here are reasonable.

At the same time, Lin Xing also said: "Let's not do that kind of face project. Everyone can like this movie or not. I like the real voice."

For this reason, every road show of "Sunspots" is a surprise, and even the crew often lands in various theaters, and then hears the real voice.

In such a situation, the road show of "Sunspots" is effective and can also increase the box office.

Like "Killing Ading" at the beginning, "Sunspots" is a live broadcast throughout the whole process, recorded by the staff, and they did not go to the live broadcast rooms of major anchors to buy tickets, because they want to discuss with the audience on the front line.

It is precisely because of this that the road show of "Sunspots" is the most informative, and everyone discusses different things in each theater.

"Don't think about glorifying criminals. I think a crime is a crime. Even if you have no choice, but in many cases, your necessity will cause other people to lose their lives. At this time, any so-called apology is useless."

"Zhao Xiaodao and others know this truth, so they are determined to die, but at the same time, look at the fourth person. People like this can only be sentenced to death, and they can't be taught well."

...

"I support everyone's love, and it doesn't matter if everyone is willing to ship our CP. I am an actor. As long as I can bring joy to everyone, I don't care."

"Fan fiction??? If everyone is willing to write fan fiction, I can open the copyright to everyone, but I hope that everyone's fan fiction will not be too inappropriate for children, and don't glorify criminals. Have basic three views..."

...

After almost 4 days of road shows, many people really think that Lin Xing is so awesome, because Lin Xing seems to know everything, and seems to be able to talk about everything.

You have to know that many celebrities are illiterate. If you ask them about some of their roles, they can't say anything at all.

There are also some stars who are very difficult to interview, even if they are good at acting. Some of them are talented actors, so it is difficult for them to talk about it.

But Lin Xing is not like that.

In Lin Xing's several road shows, you talked to him about characters, not just Zhao Xiaodao, but also Qi Ming, Ding Lei, Xia Chen, Xia Xue and others, all of whom talked about it in detail.

Then, some people wanted to pair them up, and some people gave Lin Xing and Liu Jing a name, Lin Xia Zhi Feng.

This Lin Xia Zhi Feng is the homonym of Lin Xia Zhi Feng. Originally, this idiom came from "Shi Shuo Xin Yu·Xian Yuan", which mainly refers to talented, poetic, graceful, and extraordinary women who are as good as men.

So some people asked if Lin Xing and Liu Jing would mind. Of course, Lin Xing said that he didn't mind, as long as everyone liked it.

Then some people said they wanted to write fan fiction.

Lin Xing even joked: "You can write, but don't write about me giving birth, you can write about Jing Ge giving birth."

In short, after these roadshows, the whole crew was impressed.

Although Luo Yuan and Feng Cheng were also very tired, their tiredness was really nothing compared to Lin Xing.

The two even felt that their roadshows were too easy.

After all, Lin Xing was completely in control of the scene, and he was really a versatile person.

They had only heard that Lin Xing was good at controlling the scene before, but now they have seen it.

Not only that, Lin Xing talked about fan fiction with the audience on the scene, and they seemed to be listening to a book of heaven.

As for CP, it goes without saying that Lin Xing and Luo Yuan are in a relationship, Lin Xing and Feng Cheng are in a relationship, and Lin Xing and Liu Jing are in a relationship, and they really don't care about this at all.

You have to know that some actors are very annoyed by this kind of thing, and they even don't want to be in a relationship for the sake of their own image.

But Lin Xing didn't care about this. He just said, "As long as the audience is happy."

After 4 days of roadshow, Lin Xing has completely made many audiences like this movie more and more.

Some people said, "When we meet such hard-working and joyful actors, we should cherish them. I will watch "Sunspots" twice anyway."

In this way, on June 26, "Sunspots" achieved a box office reversal, and the single-day box office reached 120 million.

The shock in the industry continued, because on June 26, the single-day box office of "Sunspots" reached 180 million, and on June 27, the single-day box office of "Sunspots" exceeded 200 million.

In this way, the box office of "Sunspots" reversed for three consecutive days, and the box office exceeded 1.2 billion in 10 days of release.

Ten days ago, before "Sunspots" was released, no one thought that the box office of this movie would exceed 1 billion. When Lin Xing mentioned the small goal of breaking the box office of 1 billion in "The Big Movie Arrives", he was ridiculed by a lot of people.

As a result, "Sunspots" has not only broken 1 billion at the box office, but even 1.2 billion at the box office.

It really shocked the industry.

"Damn, "Sunspots" is really a god now, this is the ceiling of art films."

"Yes, the key is that "Sunspots" has only been released for 10 days, you know, it may break 2 billion in the future."

"Yes, even if "Sunspots" has a low stamina, I think it is possible to hit 2 billion, after all, this is the summer season."

"Phenomenal art film, really phenomenal art film, from now on Lin Xing is really the ceiling of art films."

"Think about other people who turned to art films and all kinds of flops, not even 20 million, but Lin Xing's is too exaggerated."

...

The industry really thinks it is too exaggerated, after all, who would have thought that the box office of "Sunspots" is so high? ? ?

Some people also said: "Huang Ning is not wrong in this way. The market for art films is indeed huge, but this market was not opened by him, but by Ning Ping."

Obviously, Huang Ning's "No Casualties" is really a flop as its name suggests.

After all, the actor has a good reputation, Huang Ning's popularity is also good, and there is no traffic artist, so naturally no one will ridicule him.

Now all the focus is on Lin Xing.

And Lin Xing took a day off on June 28th. He will no longer participate in the roadshow because he will go to Shanghai to participate in this year's Magnolia Awards.
