Chapter 110 "Certificate of Voting" (13/20)
"I am a very kind person. If people don't offend me, I won't offend others. If people offend me, I will offend others. They always can't go with me. I'm not going to make fun of you when I make movies! I can't be like Zhang Yimou. Zhang Yimou is holding back and not saying anything and let you insult me. Anyway, I just don't say anything. I can't stay overnight if I don't like me! These people know how to lick their faces and criticize me. What qualifications do you have to criticize me? Do you understand movies?"
"I understand that the audience is keen on popcorn comedy, but I have no intention of serving you, a bunch of those who claim to be soft and tender! It's embarrassing, I'm a joke? If I'm a joke, what are you?"
"A group of self-righteous people are trying to block my mouth under the banner of 'not accepting criticism'. Who stipulates that you are only allowed to criticize and criticize the crazy curse, and I am not allowed to repeat it? Do you mean that you are correct? Have you recognized your essence? I am fighting with them! Just like in Douban, pretending to understand movies and talking about camera montages. Do you know what montages are?"
"Audiences can scold me anyway when they buy tickets. Film critics will scold me here for collecting money. They have the right to scold me, and I have the right to scold them. I am fighting with them."
By the way, you have to please the audience, because the audience buys tickets!
By the way, Ma Xiaokang also used Weibo...
Now, most public figures regard Zhalang Weibo as their own self-operated site because... it's convenient!
You can express your feelings casually, and there are many fans who cater to your own...
Ma Xiaokang probably wanted to work harder, after all, "The Vote" is about to be launched. If you don't attract some attention, "Big Name 2" will become cannon fodder...
Things went against his wishes, and there were so many scoldings on his Weibo.
"It's so amazing. I've made a bad movie, so why don't people tell me?"
"People with inferiority or guilty are so sensitive. This film is so bad that it is not even a complete movie. How dare you say that the critics don't understand the movie?"
"Director Ma, there are certain standards for whether a movie is good or not. It doesn't mean that you can be proud of yourself just by thinking it's interesting. After the screening of "Big Star 2", the whole audience was very boring, and it was obviously not the kind of boring that you were immersed in after watching it. Everyone around you said, 'What's the point of shooting this...'"
"Fortunately Ma Xiaokang didn't say: you can you up,no can no b b”
...
When a director evaluates his work, you must first be confident!
Even Zhang Yimou dares to say that "Three Guns Shooting the Case" is an underrated movie...
Since the audience thinks it is a bad movie, there must be his reason!
Ma Xiaokang angrily criticized the film critics and maintained his "personality" completely - to be a person who dares to speak truthfully.
But why don’t you dare to confront Zhang Junsheng, but instead hold on to the critics?
This double standard is really 6!
As a work of art, a movie will inevitably face public scrutiny, so whether it is scolding or praise, these are what artists should accept!
What's more, "Big Star 2" is not very artistic, but it is just a slightly ironic speculative work that caters to the audience...
Mark Twain once said: "I judge a person's character, and I don't look at how he treats people with higher status than him, but how he treats people with lower status than him."
Sima Guang also said in "Zizhi Tongjian": "A gentleman uses talent to be good, while a villain uses talent to be evil. Those who use talent to be good will all be good; those who use talent to be evil will all be evil will all be evil."
What netizens remember is that Ma Xiaokang has no good quality and has no positive effect at all...
...
On the 22nd, "The Certificate of Revenge" was released.
On the first day of the release, it won the box office of 24 million with 38% of the film schedule, and won the championship in a single day!
"Assembly" ranked second in 17 million;
"Big Star 2" only earns 6.5 million in a single daily report...
Take a look at the box office failure and loss list of Chinese expensive and conscientious giants, and "The Vote" is among them!
The total box office was about 340 million yuan, the investment was 220 million yuan, and the loss was more than 100 million yuan!
According to netizens today, the reason why "The Voting of the Fame" failed miserably at the box office was mainly because Li Lianjie's salary was too high, 100 million yuan!
However, from the perspective of film production, this one hundred million is worth it!
Because of Li Lianjie's joining, "The Voting of the Fame" received an initial investment of 20 million US dollars. Let's put it this way, without Li Lianjie's participation, this movie would have become a low-cost movie, which is very different from the current "The Voting of the Fame" and will be far lower than the director's expectations...
We can see the real situation, the original time and space, the box office of "The Legend of the Contest" in the mainland was still good in the first week, and it successfully exceeded 100 million. Then, in the second week, the government was attacked by "Assembly" and completely defeated. In the end, the box office in the mainland was only over 200 million...
The box office in Hong Kong is only more than 20 million, and the box office in Taiwan is NT$100 million, which is far less than expected!
I originally expected the box office in North America to be tens of millions or billions, but I made an astronomical figure - 120,000!
Not only that, since then, the Chinese-language action film starring Li Lianjie has been completely out of stock in the United States, and the short-term glory of Chinese-language blockbusters in the North American market has been completely finished!
How to say it?
"The Conquest of the Fame" is a classic film that shows the murderous killing of peasant uprising troops. It has a realistic visual effect of "dirty, messy, poor" and a bloody atmosphere. The audience of old girls will not buy it...
In fact, from the perspective of the movie itself, Zhang Junsheng likes "The Prophet" very much!
This film is based on the "Horse Casting Case", one of the four major strange cases in the late Qing Dynasty.
In order to show the personal characteristics of the characters in the play, the director carefully portrays the characters' costumes, presenting a heroic film.
Whether in terms of audio-visual language or narrative style, "The Stories of the Name" deserves to be regarded as a rare classic costume film in ten years!
However, Chen Kexin is so literary!
In addition to supporting the original time and space "Assembly" can defeat "The Prophet" in addition to the political support, the more important thing is the different aesthetics of the two movies.
"Assembly" good people are good people, Guzidi is a hero, from beginning to end; on the other hand, there is no good people in "The Legend of the Conquest", so I don't know what the director wants to show.
Although Pang Qingyun is brave and good at fighting, and is both wise and brave, he is cruel and cunning, obsessed with profit, and kills innocent people indiscriminately;
Zhao Erhu is kind and loyal, and is a real man, but he is ignorant and stupid, and he doesn't understand who harmed him if he dies;
Chu Wuyang is simple and upright and loyal, but he does not distinguish right from wrong and helps the evil.
This...it makes people unable to tell who is the good person and who is the bad person. Although they are all real people, they show real human nature.
Brother, don’t be so upset about the New Year holiday!
In this time and space, "Assembly" has already begun, so why should we suppress the movies produced by our company?
It is impossible for Zhang Junsheng to change the company's strategy for his own preferences - he is a filmmaker and a businessman!
Chapter completed!
