Who are you calling "little fresh meat"? I'm the king.

Chapter 223: 2.46 million in the second week (9/32 leader added)

"Xiao Chen, do you think I've been talking too much lately?"

"No," Chen Xu was curious: "What's wrong?"

Shen Yan reflected: "I feel like I've been posting too much on Weibo recently. Even though no one has offended me, I still make all sorts of comments..."

Chen Xu was surprised: "You were like this before, didn't you notice?"

“I used to…”

Well, Shen Yan had to admit that he had always been a little conceited...

After all, he carries memories and the Negative Xi inheritance...

The most important thing is that the entertainment industry is perfect for showing off!

The people around me are really low level!

There is no way around it. The Central Academy of Drama, Beijing Film Academy, and Shanghai Theatre Academy are currently the top three institutions that supply talents to the film and television industry. Most of the top domestic actors come from these three schools.

Just search for the college entrance examination admission scores for the performance majors of these three colleges and you will understand.

In this circle, it is considered very impressive if you can recite "Quiet Night Thoughts" in its entirety.

A typical low-segment...

Wouldn’t you feel uncomfortable if you didn’t pretend to be cool?
Chen Xu added, "However, let's try not to be so rude to others in the future...it has a bad influence!"

"Okay, I'll try my best!"

Shen Yan nodded, then took out his phone and checked Weibo...

After a moment, I couldn't help but curse, "Is there something wrong with this guy?"

"What's wrong?"

"look by youself!"

Chen Xu took the phone. Shuimu University professor Xiao Ying had published an article claiming, "The box office success of 'My Girlhood' is a tragedy of our times and a desecration of film art."

Shen Yan added, "I know this Professor Xiao Ying. He's a famous guide... what an idiot!"

"Why would he, a university professor, review movies?"

“To attract attention!”

After taking the phone, Shen Yan posted a Weibo post: "Movies are something that everyone can express freely after they are released, but if you say that "My Girlhood" is a blasphemy against art, I dare not wear such a hat. Maybe in the eyes of some professors, American films are art..."

What the hell, he just said he wouldn’t argue with people, but now he’s directly arguing with the professor!
And he is also the leader of the Leading Party.

Oh, this Professor Xiao Ying is quite famous. He became famous earlier on by criticizing Han Han. Later, when "Wolf Warrior 2" and "Dunkirk" were released, he strongly supported "Dunkirk" and criticized "Wolf Warrior 2" in various ways. Later, when the People's Education Press illustration incident occurred, he came out to support the illustrator...

I was scolded like a dog!

This guy often promotes Western artistic aesthetics on Weibo... As for the "differences in aesthetics between China and the West", he firmly believes in the Westerners' praise of the round face, flat nose, and squinty eyes, and calls it a "high-end face."

Many people believed it too!
Later, everyone realized that this was bullshit.

Beauty is beauty, this is a universal perception, unless it is something specific. Some people like long legs, some like jade feet, some like big breasts, and some like big butts...

Oh, netizens are even more excited than Shen Yan - after all, it was they who bought the tickets and made the box office hit for "Our Girlhood"!

"What's wrong with 'Our Times'? It's not bloody, violent, or pornographic. Even children can go to the theater with their parents for such a movie. How can it be considered 'blasphemy against art'?"

"Does a small- to medium-budget commercial film clearly labeled a youth film have to bear the same serious social responsibility as a textbook?"

"No, behind the unanimous acclaim from the audience and the box office success, why is the academic community unwilling to give grassroots culture a break?"

"'My Girlhood' is just a normal movie. The reason it seems abnormal now is because the overall standard of domestic films is relatively low." Wang Changtian also posted on Weibo: "'My Girlhood' is a commercial film. Commercial films pursue popularity. Different films have different functions. We can't expect such a commercial film to have profound connotations, such as criticizing society or deeply exploring human nature. The greatest function of a film is to entertain the audience and move them with emotion. In a sense, our film is for the public to watch, and the public is willing to buy tickets. This is a success!"

……

It was indeed a success. As of August 8th, "Our Girlhood" grossed 30 million yuan in its second weekend, 1.24 million yuan in the next seven days, and 2.46 million yuan in its 11-day run.

It surpassed the 4.3 million of "The Beauty Inside" and ranked fourth in the history of Chinese-language films!
And it will definitely surpass the 2 million box office of If You Are the One 4.7 - after all, it has only been released for 11 days...

As for whether it can surpass the 6.38 million yuan of "Let the Bullets Fly", it is highly unlikely...

After all, it's almost September.

The number of moviegoers has seen a sharp decline!
But a miracle has been created.

Initially, the industry's box office forecast for "Our Girlhood" was 50 million;

An optimistic estimate is that the box office will exceed 100 million...

Who would have thought that with the huge popularity of "Love Through the Millennium", the theaters adjusted the relevant screening schedule and gave a box office forecast of 300 million!
A box office of 300 million is already a miracle!

Then... "Our Girlhood" broke people's perceptions all the way, breaking 11 million in the first four days of the first week, and the box office increased instead of decreasing in the second week, reaching 4.48 million in days!
This is no longer a dark horse, this is a hit...

Anyway, Guangguang Media's stock price rose by 40% because of this drama...

On the morning of the 31st, Shen Yan posted on Weibo: "Thank you everyone, it looks like we're almost there at the million box office goal. I wonder if we can get past million (snickering)... Although I know the chances are slim, if this movie doesn't work out, I'll just make the next one... Thank you for your support, I'll definitely keep working hard!"

……

Despite the box office success, Shen Yan is still going on tour...

However, Andy Lau also went to the Guangzhou and Shenzhen stops of the "My Girlhood" roadshow...

It’s pretty good, the popularity and reputation of the veteran superstar are both sufficient…

It decisively dominated the headlines of the entertainment sections of major portals!
《我的少女时代》8月31号的单日票房是1700万，9月1号的单日票房迎来了大幅度下滑——980万，没到1000万…

I understand, school has started!
However, according to this trend, the total box office of "My Girlhood" should be guaranteed to be more than 5.5 million...

It just fills the gap of 5 million.

——Currently, the Chinese-language film box office rankings are: "Aftershock" with 6.63 million yuan, "Let the Bullets Fly" with 6.38 million yuan, and then "If You Are the One 2" with 4.71 million yuan...

Shen Yan intentionally reduced his appearances. Of course, he would still accept interviews from local TV stations whenever he visited a new location during his tour...

Apart from that, many tabloids basically refused!

The reason is easy to find - they need to rehearse the concert.

However, the next day after arriving in Chengdu, he took a car to a club...

There’s a dinner party!

It wasn't the local underworld forces that came, but Liu Dehua.

Also accompanying them were Guo Fan and Rao Xiaozhi...

Obviously, coordinating the release date of "The Accidental Murder"...

This is Shen Yan's opinion...

After all, Andy Lau has been accompanying his wife as she prepares for childbirth.

However, according to the previous idea, the start time of "The Accidental Murder" is November...

This is the only way to ensure that post-production will be completed next year and the film can be released in November.
