my time as a director
Page 769
Huayang Media needs an annual box office champion too much, and Ma Xiaogang also needs a champion too much to justify his name.
The major companies are also excited, and finally there will be a movie that can compete with Future Pictures. Although it has nothing to do with them, I hope that Ma Xiaogang can also suppress Future Pictures' limelight.
This also made Xu Zheng, who was half proud of him, begin to feel a sense of crisis, and increased the frequency and intensity of the road show. Master Zhou Xingchi was also under him.
Nothing complements another rising comedian quite so much as overpowering two comedians.
Li Qian, who is still filming in Shanghai, occasionally pays attention to the movie market during the Lunar New Year.
"It seems that "Private Order" can also break one billion. "Tai囧" is really not 100% sure that it will win."
During the rest of the crew, as a member of the film, Tong Liya was worried about "Lost in Thailand".
She replaced Fan Binbin in the original version and acted as the goddess of Wang Baoqiang.
Well, after that, I have to go to the crew of "Detective Chinatown" to play Wang Baoqiang's goddess again, the number one beauty in Chinatown.
Qi Yukun, who is more literary, denies it, "It's hard to say if it breaks one billion, but it is definitely impossible to surpass "Lost in Thailand". "Private Order" is even more vulgar than "Lost in Thailand", and the current box office is only supported by jokes." Forget it, it doesn't have enough emotional appeal, and the follow-up trend is definitely not as good as "Lost in Thailand."
Su Lun said, "That's what I said, but New Year's movies are made to make people laugh. "Private Order" is really funny, and it satirizes the real estate market and the officialdom. The market should not be low."
Li Qian smiled and said, "I agree with Lao Qi this time. It's easy for a comedy movie to sell well just because it's funny, but it's impossible to become a blockbuster. "Tai囧" at least has various emotional expressions. To put it bluntly, "Customization" is just a group of people playing.
Compared with "Party A and Party B", the movie "Private Customization" has a beautiful scene, the scene is more grand, and the money is not less, but it does not have the warmth in "Party A and Party B" and "See You or Be Square", and there is no "Big Star" " and "Mobile Phone" are sharp, and there are only a few ironies left, but irony without reflection is superfluous. "
This film not only satirizes the upper class such as officialdom and real estate, but also satirizes the people at the bottom. It can be seen that Ma Xiaogang has resentment in his heart, complaining that the public did not watch "[-]" last year.
The correct shooting method, apart from the irony of every plot, this film also needs to reflect, raise problems, and propose solutions to problems, even if this method is unrealistic and too idealistic.
Fan Wei, who is an official, scolded not only corrupt and mediocre officials, but also ordinary people.
You see, an honest person like Fan Wei couldn't stand the temptation of Li Xiaolu's beauty after becoming an official. Doesn't this mean that those who scold corrupt officials all day are not good birds, and they are also bad guys after becoming an official. Where does he have the face to scold officials.
Ma Xiaogang, now he also looks down on the general public, and his resentment is too deep.
Although ordinary viewers don't necessarily think so much, most things don't have to be thought through clearly. Even if they don't think so, they will definitely feel a little uncomfortable in the senses.
This is the feeling, something indescribable.
As Li Qian thought, after the official release, the word-of-mouth of "Personal Customization" took a sharp turn for the worse, and there were more and more complaints and criticisms.
In the four days of the first weekend, it only got 33 billion box office, which is exactly four times that of the first day.
This is a very bad ratio. Normally, the daily box office of Friday, Saturday, and Sunday must be higher than that of Thursday.
"Lost in Thailand" reached 8400 million on the first day, and reached 43 billion in the first four days of the weekend. This is the correct trend for blockbuster movies.
This also made Huayang Media and Ma Xiaogang have some bad premonitions, which is also true.
The following Monday, the box office of "Private Order" plummeted to 3000 million, a drop of 57.
And "Lost in Thailand", which was released for 18 days, earned 2000 million on Monday in the fourth week, and the trend is still stable. In addition, the total box office in the previous three weeks reached 3 million, surpassing "Journey to the West" and ranked No. [-] in the box office of Chinese movies. .[-]!
"Private Order" earned 21 billion box office for the entire second week and seven days, bringing the total box office to 54 billion.
The word of mouth is also mixed, in addition to being funny, there are more complaints.
This result undoubtedly caused Huayang Media and Ma Xiaogang to fall from heaven to the ground, and fell hard.
Ma Xiaogang couldn't figure it out. It was also a movie that was criticized as vulgar, but the box office trend of "囧囧" was so stable, while his "Private Order" was about to collapse in the first week.
This also caused Ma Xiaogang to face more and more difficulties. The media began to compare "Private Order" with "Tai囧", and asked him face-to-face how he felt being crushed at the box office, and asked him to comment on Xu Zheng.
All kinds of sharp questions, such as cooking cold rice and making money, were left to Ma Xiaogang.
Maybe it’s because he has been scolded a lot, Ma Xiaogang is used to it, and he was able to chat and laugh with the reporter about this topic, “How many times has “007” been fired, this meal is worth frying, every night at home when I eat the best time , It’s just after two o’clock at night, take the leftover rice in the refrigerator and add an egg to fry it, I like to eat leftover rice, it’s delicious.”
Ma Xiaogang was full of disdain, thinking that I was a cold meal, but my bowl of cold rice was still a big hit, and the audience still ate it with gusto. Even if it didn't break one billion, it could break seven hundred million.
This thick-skinned, even the reporter was stunned on the spot.
However, no matter what he said, it couldn't change that the bowl of cold rice in "Private Order" was not cooked well, at least not as delicious as the fresh rice "Party A and Party B".
Moreover, the box office was beaten by Xu Zheng, who is also a comedy director. Many media and film critics who don't like Ma Xiaogang also used Xu Zheng to belittle Ma Xiaogang frequently, completely forgetting that they also sprayed "Tai囧" before.
The back wave of the Yangtze River pushes the front wave, and Ma Xiaogang, the front wave, lost to Xu Zheng, the back wave, in this best comedy duel, and was photographed and fell on the beach.
Chapter 459 The strongest army on the surface
"Private Customization", which started the same way as "Tai囧", hit the street in a way that no one expected.
It also has a good reputation, and the audience who watched it said it was funny.
Some people also say that movies are vulgar, saying that this kind of movie is not good for the movie industry, but will mislead investors and directors in the industry.
Even the box office on the first day was the same, exceeding 8000 million. Even "Private Order" had fewer films and a higher attendance rate.
But that's all. After the third day of release, the two films have taken two completely different paths.
"Tai囧" ignored all the "three vulgar" curses, and made great progress all the way. After surpassing "Journey to the West", it once again crushed "Avatar", second only to "I'm Not the God of Medicine" and "The Truman's world".
As for "Personal Customization", although a large number of viewers still say that the movie is particularly funny, the negative voices are not small at all, and it is still the word "three vulgarities" mentioned before.
But the impact on "Private Order" was too great, and the box office almost avalanche.
It was 33 billion in the first week, 21 billion in the second week, and in the third week due to the New Year's Day holiday, although it recovered, it only won [-] million.
It was released for three weeks, with a total box office of 64 billion.
And "Lost in Thailand" has been released for five weeks, and the total box office has reached 146 billion, and there is little hope of breaking through 15 billion.
After all, it's a plot-oriented movie, and it's not as touching as "I'm Not the God of Medicine", so even if it is funny, the pirated version will have a big impact at this time.
Moreover, the New Year's Day holiday has passed. In addition to "Private Order", a new film "Police Story 12" and two Hollywood blockbusters were released at the end of December, and the pressure of competition was great.
However, even so, 146 billion is a number that even 99 movies can't match, which is enough to be called the annual hit.
One head and one tail, the two comedy movies in 2013 drew a successful conclusion to this year.
As for the new films that are being released, they are not very popular. Even if "Police Story 2013" applies the title of this series, the box office is mediocre.
In the past, Cheng Long's movies were played all over the world, but this time they were only limited to a bar in the capital, which disappointed the audience.
And I don't dare to flatter him when playing dramas, people call Cheng Long old, can he still play?
The one-on-one duel in the bar cage is the only formal action duel scene in the whole film. The Filipino boxer kicks with a heavy leg, and Cheng Long's facial muscles are exaggerated and deformed, which makes the audience's heart twitch suddenly.
There are a lot of slow-motion special shots in this section. Watching the slow Cheng Long being hit, kicked down, falling on the table, smashing into the ice pile, stepping on the barbed wire, coupled with the overall dark and depressing background tone, suddenly I found that watching his movies now is more and more a kind of masochism.
