With three days left before the end of 2017, "Go Forward" was officially released in mainland China.

In terms of the plot of this movie, there is nothing unexpected. It is the story of forest firefighters. There are life clips and disaster relief clips. There are not too many roller coaster-like ups and downs, but there is a kind of "truth" in film art, which is accurately displayed.

Various aspects of the profession of firefighter.

The "truth" of different documentaries is the essence of "Go Forward". Too "mythical" characters will make the audience feel isolated. The future "Emergency Rescue" is the most obvious example. It is more like an action movie.

What impression can Long Aotian from Heaven and Sea leave on the audience? Will they forget it after watching it?

Or maybe the male lead is not going to die, he is actually making a movie.

In short, after "Go Forward" was released, it quickly gained recognition and support from the audience, which was naturally reflected in the box office.

On the first day, it received 268 million yuan, and in the first three days, it received 892 million yuan.

It didn't break any records, but it still eclipsed the movies of the same period, such as "The Legend of the Demon Cat", "City Lights", "The Second Generation of Monsters", "Blood of the Machine", etc.

Director Chen Da is probably very unconvinced... But he can only sulk. It's useless to be dissatisfied. Although "Legend of the Demon Cat" is not a bad movie, and the pictures are beautiful, the story... aside from the pictures, it looks like a low-budget film.

Ghost story.

The other three movies, speaking of which, one has Liu Shishi, one has Liu Yifei, and one has Ouyang Nana, but this does not mean anything. If his box office is good, it does not mean that his female box office will follow suit, unless both

Make a movie with him.

However, Jiang Xiao can only help to a limited extent. Individuals have their own personal development, and he can't do it all. The main reason is that there are too many good resources and not enough good resources, so he can only let it go, uh...

Back to "Go Forward", this movie was not only recognized by the audience, but also recognized by real firefighters from top to bottom. Therefore, a large number of official movie theaters were booked subsequently.

In this way, it naturally further boosted the box office, and finally achieved a score of 1.977 billion yuan in the second week.

Even in the third week, the box office remained at a high level above 1 billion, with 1.556 billion yuan, and the total box office also exceeded the 4 billion mark, reaching 4.225 billion yuan.

Inadvertently, the total box office for 2017 was pushed to over 65 billion yuan. In my memory, it seemed that it only reached this level in 19 years.

Of course, the box office of 4.225 billion yuan is not the end of the road for "Go Forward". It once again received more than 600 million in the fourth week, and more than 200 million in the fifth week. It was not released until the third month of screening. During this period, it also experienced the Spring Festival period, which made it more popular.

The box office has slightly increased.

But after all, most of the audience has already seen this movie, and it is unlikely that it will do anything during the Spring Festival. But when it is released, the total box office is still very high, with 5.566 billion yuan.

This is another situation that Jiang Xiao did not expect. Just like "Glimmer", movies that have never been seen in his memory have repeated miracles. As the leading actor of two movies, he has truly become a box office myth among myths.

Of course, this is also the reputation he has slowly accumulated over the years with his strength, and the audience has completely recognized him.

Works made with care will always get rewards beyond imagination.

The income from the box office of 5.466 billion, without further calculation, is definitely second to the income of "Shimmer".

In addition, because of this movie, Jiang Xiao also has an additional title, China Fire Protection Ambassador.

Jiang Xiaozhen has had many such honors in recent years, both in the province and across the country.

Then as I mentioned the Spring Festival release, I have to mention another work of Lemon, "Detective Chinatown 2", which was also released on the first day of the lunar new year in 2018.

As expected, I didn't win the championship on the first day of junior high school, uh... yes, I didn't win.

"Monster Hunt 2", which won the championship, even set a single-day box office record, exceeding 550 million yuan.

It is undeniable that this film is more family friendly after all, and it is also suitable for the first day of the Lunar New Year. In addition, the publicity is well done and the advertising is overwhelming, so it is not that surprising that it takes the lead.

However, no matter how good the marketing is, it will still be useless if the quality of the film is not stable. "The Last Night on Earth" is the most typical example.

In the end, "Tang Detective 2" and "Operation Red Sea" both crushed "Monster Hunt 2" step by step.

The two movies received very good reviews from the audience, and the final box office receipts were also very different. The former was more than 3.4 billion, and the latter was more than 2.9 billion.

This seems to be slightly different from the original memory, because the original memory of "Red Sea" box office was better than that of "Tang Detective 2", with as much as 3.6 billion, but now it seems to be about 700 million less.

The reason may not be difficult to understand. There is still a comparison between "Operation Valor" and the same sentence. Without comparison, there is no harm, even if it is only a slight injury.

The shortcomings of "Red Sea" are quite obvious. Too much gore is a big problem. It should scare... No, it succeeded in scaring many children. Parents did not do their homework and took them to watch with them. As a result, they were violently attacked by the blood. Some scenes even shocked adults.

I can't stand it. Many countries have restricted levels. For example, Xiangjiang has become level three.

Furthermore, the director's control over the pacing is average. From beginning to end, the audience is not given a chance to take a breath, which makes the whole movie-watching process seem tiring.

Compared with "Act of the Brave", he is really a younger brother. Jiang Xiao is not boasting, but the rhythm of "Act of the Brave" is really popular and well controlled at the same time, and the military equipment and so on are far superior.

Relatively speaking, the box office of "Tang Detective 2" was better, which may be the reason why it was far more successful than the first one in memory.

"Monster Hunt 2", which won the first place at the beginning, ended up in third place, with a total box office of more than 1.9 billion, barely exceeding 2 billion, but the film studio has already made a lot of money.

"Land of Women" starring other little girls was also released during the Spring Festival, but it was a miserable failure, with a box office of only over 700 million.

This film has a lot of flaws. Even if the heroine is his own woman, Jiang Xiao can't go against his will and say it's good.

All in all, no matter whether some families are happy or others are sad, Lemon is definitely the biggest winner, bar none.

Without even realizing it, Lemon has developed into a first-class company in the industry.

Perhaps because it is more focused on content production, it is not as comprehensively developed as Huayi. It is not the largest in terms of theme parks and movie theaters, but its strong performance speaks for itself.

Although March 4th is not a special day, the 90th Academy Awards ceremony is held on this day.

"Shimmer" is nominated, not only for Best Foreign Language Film, but also for many awards, such as Best Picture, Original Screenplay, Director, Actor, Cinematography, Editing, Art Direction, and Foreign Language.

Naturally, it is not the one with the most nominations. "The Shape of Water" has 13, which is not the most nominated Chinese film. "Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon" seems to have ten.

Putting all this aside, Jiang Xiao's voice for winning the award this time is not low at all. Even though the other opponents are all powerful figures, the main reason is that he has already won the award first, the Golden Globe Best Actor.

Yes, it’s the awards season, and “Glimmer” is unstoppable in winning awards not only at home, but also abroad.

At the Golden Globe Awards, he won three awards: Best Director, Actor and Foreign Language Film.

At the British Academy Film Awards in mid-to-late February, Jiang Xiao also won Best Actor, and also won awards for foreign language films. Anyway, he has the momentum to sweep all the way to Best Actor and Foreign Language Film.

Now let’s see how the Oscars perform this time. The first two awards have always been known as Oscar trendsetters. Even if they are not 100% accurate, they will ultimately have a greater chance of winning.

Jiang Xiao himself did not attend the Golden Globe Awards and the British Academy Awards, leaving it to Lin to accept the awards, because when the former was held...he emphasized "female" over "award", while the latter celebrated the New Year at home.

Fourth, I don’t want to make a special trip to the UK.

Now that the Chinese New Year is over and the holidays are almost gone, it seems that the rest has lasted for more than half a year, and it’s time to start work.

Participating in the Oscars is not considered starting work. It is other business activities, shooting advertisements. The two things happened to go together, so I took the opportunity to attend the Oscars first.

I don’t know if he won too many awards, or Jiang Xiao felt that he didn’t have the strong will to use awards to prove himself, so he was quite normal.

Just like Leonardo DiCaprio, he calmed down when he finally won the Oscar, and he still had the time to talk about environmental protection in his acceptance speech.
