my movie years

Chapter 454 A Different History

This year's winner is undoubtedly "The Earth Shakes". As of the end of the film's release, it has grossed 53.2 billion in box office, successfully becoming the No. 2 film in history.

After the National Day holiday ends, this year’s film market is actually over.

In previous years, there was a Lunar New Year stall, but since the rise of the Spring Festival stall and the National Day stall in the summer, the Lunar New Year stall has gradually declined.

The next focus will be on the 2023 Spring Festival schedule.

A number of movies have been announced to be released during the Spring Festival. First of all, the most popular one is undoubtedly produced by Zhang Hao and directed by Guo Fan. It brings together celebrities such as Wu Jing, Li Xuejian, Da Mi Mi, Hua Zai, Sha Yi, Wang Zhi, etc. "The Wandering Earth 2: Space Station Crash Crisis".

Guo Fan still followed Zhang Hao's advice and divided the second film into two parts and released them separately.

Because it is divided into two parts, a lot of content can be retained. The film length of "The Wandering Earth 2: Space Station Crash Crisis" is still 140 minutes.

The second part is called "The Wandering Earth 2: Lunar Crisis". It was originally scheduled to be released during the National Day, but considering that Zhang Hao's movie "Flag" will also be released during this period, it was moved forward to July.

In fact, this is two movies made with the investment of one movie, so Zhang Hao does not have high requirements for the box office of this movie. It is enough for the two movies to get more than 40 billion in box office.

The upper part has been completed. Zhang Hao took the time to watch it. The quality is really good and the film is very complete.

In fact, there is a very strange phenomenon in the Chinese film industry. This type of science fiction film will definitely be scolded if it is not titled as a Hollywood blockbuster or bears Zhang Hao's name.

However, the environment faced by "The Wandering Earth 2" is not bad. After all, it is produced by Zhang Hao, and Guo Fan is reassuring enough.

After that, the National Master took action. It is said that it took two months, invested [-] million, and gave up one scene to the end. "Man Jiang Hong" starring Shen Teng and his four-character brother was also released during the Spring Festival.

The Imperial Master never understood why Zhang Hao always talked to him about "Man Jiang Hong".As he talked, the national teacher suddenly had inspiration, and this movie was born.

Zhang Hao said that he was innocent. He really didn't expect that he actually wanted to remind the national teacher not to do "Man Jiang Hong".

Unexpectedly, "Man Jiang Hong" was born because of him.

The most annoying thing is that in a previous interview, the National Master said that the idea for the "River Red" project was told to him by Zhang Hao, and he was very grateful to Zhang Hao.

This time it’s a costume suspense genre again. As we all know, suspense films have always been a genre that Zhang Hao is very good at.

The addition of Zhang Hao as the national master is quite interesting.

Zhang Hao's first reaction after hearing this was that he almost cursed.Finally, he held back, but still called the national teacher. "Man Jiang Hong" can be produced, but Qin Hui must die.

The imperial master promised that Qin Hui would die.

But later when I was writing the script with the screenwriter, the screenwriter cleverly proposed that if Qin Hui died, it would be inconsistent with history, so he could not die.

So the script was changed to the real Qin Hui, and the fake Qin Hui led the entire army to recite "Man Jiang Hong".

This is a bit of a black comedy, humorous and ironic.

But the most important thing is that it’s okay for the National Master to do this, so don’t drag him along!
When he thought about going to the cinema and seeing such a disgusting movie, with Zhang Hao thanked in the subtitles afterwards, Zhang Hao's blood pressure immediately rose.

But it's too late to say anything at this point, the movie is finished shooting, and maybe the post-production is finished.

The national teacher has contributed to Chinese-language films, at least better than Lao Chen. Zhang Hao admits this, plus the opening ceremony of the Olympic Games.

It can be said that the name of the National Master is destined to be written into the history of Chinese films, and it is a very important page.

Zhang Hao respects the imperial master, but this time, it made him a little embarrassed.

Zhang Hao later thought, forget it, let him go!He doesn't show up, he doesn't cooperate, he doesn't brag, he doesn't slander, and it doesn't matter if he plays the main role.

As for how netizens and the media evaluate it, that is beyond Zhang Hao's control.

This is indeed the case. From the beginning of the 2023 Spring Festival, "Man Jiang Hong" will compete fiercely with "The Wandering Earth 2: Space Station Crisis".

"The Wandering Earth 2: Space Station Crisis" relied on its ultra-high quality and excellent publicity in the early stage to occupy a more favorable situation.

On January 1, the first day of the Lunar New Year, the film took in a first-day box office of 22 million.

Because this day happened to be a Sunday, the first day was the first week, and by the way, it also won the box office championship in the first week.

"Man Jiang Hong" was not to be outdone, taking in a box office of 4.05 million on its first day.Although the film claims to have an investment of [-] million, Zhang Hao also knew from Da Mi Mi's description that unless money was laundered, the investment in "Man Jiang Hong" would never exceed [-] million.

What kind of movie only has a few scenes that come and go, and costs [-] million?
If it really costs [-] million, the national master should investigate the problems of his own crew to see if there is corruption.But thinking about it, the Imperial Master was just bragging.

Five hundred million sounds very bluffing, but it is very attractive to the audience.

After the film was released, the online reviews were indeed as Zhang Hao expected, with mixed praise and praise.Most of the people who praised it were probably because they received red envelopes from the investors of "Man Jiang Hong", but the ones who criticized it were very real.

"Trash movie, a piece of shit, a waste of my movie tickets."

"Yue Fei will be so angry that he will come to life after seeing this movie."

"Qin Hui didn't even think that he would stand up one day after kneeling for a thousand years." "The suspense comedy is a piece of shit, and it's so awesome. I thought the master had some tricks up his sleeve!"

After cursing and cursing, the topic shifted to the innocent Zhang Hao.

"It turns out that it was Zhang Hao who proposed this movie. I am a fan of you."

"Upstairs, Director Zhang didn't take the blame at all. It was "Man Jiang Hong" who forced the blame."

"That's not what the Imperial Master said. Did Zhang Hao talk to him about this subject? It's Zhang Hao's problem."

"You're just trying to be embarrassing, aren't you? Director Zhang just proposed the idea, he didn't write the script."

"Inside information, Zhang Hao read the script of the National Preceptor and said that Qin Hui could not survive, but the National Preceptor said that history should be respected."

"Why do you still respect history? His movie didn't respect history. In that case, it's better to kill Qin Hui."

As the competition for the Spring Festival stalls becomes more and more fierce, it is not only the question of Qin Hui's survival, but also various problems exposed behind "Man Jiang Hong".

Because despite the huge controversy, the box office of "Man Jiang Hong" did not decrease, but actually surpassed the box office of "The Wandering Earth 2: Space Station Crisis" later.
As a result, some people suspected that the box office of "River Red" was fraudulent. Someone posted evidence on the Internet, claiming that "River Red" in a certain theater only played for half an hour, and no one watched it at all.

Some people also said that they clearly bought movie tickets for "The Wandering Earth 2: Space Station Crisis", but the self-service ticket machine broke down at the cinema.

However, the theater staff gave them tickets for "Man Jiang Hong". The audience questioned, but the staff explained that they could use the tickets to see "The Wandering Earth 2".

Because there were pictures and truth, news about electronic ghost fields, box office thefts, etc. were all the rage in an instant.

Most netizens are actually in a state of enjoying themselves. Regardless of whether it is true or not, they just follow the excitement.

The investors of "River Red" didn't panic. On the one hand, the official blog said that they definitely did not steal the box office and it was very clean. On the other hand, they let the navy clean up the ground.

However, this is not the most outrageous operation. The most suffocating thing is that when the investors of "Man Jiang Hong" saw that "The Wandering Earth 2" peripherals were sold for [-] million, they instantly became jealous and also made a peripheral product.

These peripheral products include Qin Hui's waist tag, paperweight, sachet, jade pendant, and notebook with "Man Jiang Hong" written on it.

Netizens were dumbfounded by this saucy operation, and then their defenses were broken. Even more people scolded "Man Jiang Hong" online.

Some scholars have said before that Qin Hui has been kneeling for thousands of years and should stand up.In this way, I was criticized by netizens, and I immediately quit the Internet and became autistic.

But I didn't expect that while other scholars were just talking about it, "Man Jiang Hong" was actually doing such a thing. It really wanted Qin Hui to stand up.

Now that Qin Hui can stand up, will people be able to stand up in the future?Although it is not us who are kneeling in other days.

This wave of marketing has directly exploded word-of-mouth.

In its original history, word-of-mouth was a hit, but "Man Jiang Hong" did well at the box office.But in this changing time and space, because of the addition of Zhang Hao, a different storm has arisen.

Impacted by multiple negative news, "Man Jiang Hong" actively engaged in public relations, but with little success.

As a result, it was unable to compete with "The Wandering Earth 2: Space Station Crisis", and the box office gradually fell behind. As of the end of the film, it only received 33.2 billion in box office.

It is far behind the original historical box office of 45 billion, but the investors of "Man Jiang Hong" are very satisfied.

If they knew that this movie could have a box office of 45 billion, I wonder what the investors of "Man Jiang Hong" would think.

As for things like box office theft, no one reported it, and even if they said they wanted to investigate, they just let it go.

If you can't get any conclusive evidence, there's nothing you can do about it.

And this new version of "The Wandering Earth 2" is absolutely outstanding in terms of movie quality. The story is told very well and in detail, and it is easy to understand at the same time.

That version of the movie in the previous life is as good as it is good. For senior science fiction fans, it is a super blockbuster that is as good as or even better than Hollywood science fiction blockbusters.

But the problem is that the content is too compact and there is too much information that the audience’s brain can’t process at once.

Moreover, many details are actually missing and not fully displayed.

For those who are not the audience for science fiction movies, it is actually not easy to understand, and the threshold for viewing the film is somewhat high.

But now with the market foundation cultivated by Zhang Hao, and the correction of the original shortcomings, the film has reached a higher level.

One film critic commented: "This is a domestic science fiction movie that can rival "Interstellar"."

The film's high reputation, exciting plot, and strong appeal have made it a huge success in the film market, earning a box office of 45.63 billion before it was released.

As for "Unknown" and the like, I won't mention it. Brother Jue did not disappoint everyone's expectations and successfully delivered a big bad movie.

To make matters worse, there are still two Juejue Ge movies to be released this year. Fans will be happy, but the audience will be in pain. (End of chapter)
