Start acting today

Chapter 238: The first eye scene (additional update for alliance leader Jincheng Xiaomu)
Before the film was over, but when it was about to end, the cleaning lady was already waiting with a big blue bucket.

Wanwei didn't forget what Yuan Xiangshi said just now, "You'll know after watching the behind-the-scenes", so when people exited the stage in an orderly manner, she stood still.

I forgot to mention that the attendance rate at midnight is pretty good, over 60.00%.

Unfortunately, not all movies put the extras at the end, but "Detective" didn't, so the two of them waited until they were in the theater, and there was nothing.

"Master Xiang, you'd better tell me directly," Wanwei said.

"I'm not sure, I'll call and ask." As soon as Master Yuan Xiang took out his cell phone, his wife stopped him.

"Don't even look at what time it is." Wanwei said. The movie was at [-]:[-] midnight, and it's now [-]:[-]. Who's still awake at this late hour?
"Don't worry, I don't know about the other person, he must not be asleep yet." Yuan Xiangshi dialed the phone, and after thinking for a few times, the other party answered the call.

After asking a few questions, Master Yuan Xiang smiled just as he imagined.

After a few more pleasantries, I hung up the phone.

"How many times do you think Huang Baiyou shot that scene that was filmed five times?" Master Yuan Xiang asked.

"About four or five times?" Wanwei said, "Is it six or seven times? People can't eat that much."

"Once." Master Yuan Xiang said, "Huang Baiyou only had one meal during the filming of this scene."

"?" Wanwei chewed on her husband's words and said in broken pieces, "So Huang Baiyou ate one meal, and then acted out like he had five meals in the series."

"That's what I mean." Master Yuan Xiang nodded, Huang Baiyou's acting ideas were very obvious.

I imitated Gao Dong and moved my body slightly the second time. The third time I moved my stomach as far as possible away from the table. The fourth time my hand movements were much slower. The fifth time I vomited halfway through the meal.

If it takes five times to complete the above set of actions, which is a smooth acting performance, the key is that Huang Baiyou did it once and performed it in five stages. This is why Master Yuan Xiang couldn't help but applaud when watching the movie.

Instead of comparing oneself to another, Yuan Xiangshi had to film it at least twice before he could have material for editing.

"I didn't even realize that, Master Xiang, you are too judgmental!" After hearing this, Wanwei didn't realize how powerful Huang Baiyou was, and she even thought her husband was great.

"I'm sure I still have good taste." Master Yuan Xiang laughed when he heard this.

The reason he found out was that he made a mistake in post-editing and used the same bibimbap scene twice.

A complete dining scene takes at least twenty minutes to shoot.

The film was edited five times, with a total of only one and a half minutes of footage, so the material was completely sufficient, but there were obvious mistakes in post-production.

It’s not wrong, Huang Baiyou’s acting skills are too good, and there are no clues, Master Yuan Xiang thought to himself.

"How's it going? Do you like this movie?" Wanwei asked about business.

"A very exciting Hong Kong film, with a pure taste of Hong Kong films. Mathews, Gao Tong, and Ho Pingan are all crazy. It should be the best Hong Kong film in recent years." Yuan Xiangshi added, "Of course, South China Sea is not included."

The most exciting Hong Kong and Taiwan film in recent years is "Thirteen Langs of the South China Sea", and the most Hong Kong-flavored film is "The Detective".

Yuan Xiangshi found that Huang Baiyou was not as good as him in the mainland, but he was developing better in Hong Kong, Taiwan and even Hollywood.

"Where's the box office?" Wanwei asked the question she was most concerned about.

"Wei Ju is cooperating again, and three movie stars Huang Baiyou, Ning Jie, and Xiang Baorui are joining the cast. It's very attractive, but in terms of box office, our movie will win."

"That's good." Wanwei nodded, and she judged the same.

It's not a question of quality, but a question of subject matter.

"Legend of Kings" is an urban fantasy film with a large investment. It received a lot of attention when the project was first established, and the upper limit is even greater.

……

The next day.

It is also the first day of Labor Day, so there are more moviegoers. After all, not every migrant worker is willing to go out and "travel".

Competition in the movie market has also become more intense. "Detective" can still maintain an average film schedule of 22%, which is a great honor to the theater.

Let quality do the rest.

"No wonder he can change Wei Zhuang, Huang Baiyou's acting skills are more extreme than those of Hong Kong stars" - Today's Headlines

"Three Best Actors Competing, Who Do You Call?" 》——News and Entertainment

"Wei Ju creates another classic, Huang Baiyou goes crazy chasing the murderer" - Douyin News

Media feedback has been good.

"What was the box office result on the first day?" Huang Baiyou asked.

Caiyun reported, "The first day's sales were 9423 million, plus 2136 million at zero-site, the cumulative box office was 1.153 million. We are ranked No. 2 in the Labor Day schedule."

Huang Baiyou thought about it. At present, it is difficult to reach [-] million.

"The first one is "No King"?" Huang Baiyou asked. The publicity of this movie is no less than theirs.

"No King earned 2.2 million at the box office on the first day plus zero-point screenings." Caiyun answered.

It is normal for so many people to expect a commercial blockbuster with an investment of 3 million.

Wu Xiaoxiao said: "So I said that it should not be released on the Labor Day schedule. We should move it directly to the Christmas schedule. As long as it is Christmas, no matter whether it is a kingless or a bastard, we will only be the second child."

Is it still because of the promotion of being the king of Christmas schedule?This is just a way for Tan Xing to raise his status, so he must not deceive himself.

"According to the investment in "Detective", the movie will definitely make money, and the boss's appeal will not drop."

Seeing that Huang Baiyou was still silent, Caiyun thought he was very concerned about this matter and offered words of comfort.

"I'm thinking about tomorrow's schedule. The box office of "Detective" is expected."

Although Huang Baiyou lost some money from the film, he was very addicted to the movie. Besides, the main function of this movie is to be a backup to hit the Golden Horse and the Golden Statue.

The Golden Rooster and Hundred Flowers Film Festival will open in a while, and the best actor should be sure that "Detective" and "Thirteen Langs of the South China Sea" will hit China's three gold medals.

You must know that there are two or three Chinese-language Golden Best Actors, but there is no such thing as a Triple Golden Best Actor. Huang Baiyou wants to be the first to take advantage!

The box office on the first day was very good. To take advantage of the victory, the creative team of Detective will also perform in various places, including first-tier cities.

"Please support Detective. The movie has cooperated with Amap Taxi. You can get 5 movie ticket vouchers for one trip."

"I hope you will be satisfied with the content."

"Thank you for your support. Next movie - let's talk about this movie."

……

Huang Baiyou thanked the guests in various cities with ease, adding to the popularity of the box office.

Hong Kong stars have great popularity, but popularity and appeal cannot be equated. Anyway, Ning Jie and Xiang Baorui combined cannot equal Huang Baiyou's publicity effect.

9614 million on the second day.

1.21 million on the third day

4458 million on the fourth day

1435 million on the fifth day

Netizens’ reviews of more than a dozen movies scheduled for Labor Day have also come out.

Most movies scored less than six points on Douban, but "The King" scored 7.1 points, and "The Detective" scored 8.1 points, a full point difference.

There is a slight gap between Douban movies, which can basically be said to be a different grade.

This is especially obvious from the comment sections of the two movies. Let’s look at the comment section of The Detective first:

"Ah, halfway through watching this movie, my stupid personality came out."

"I seem to have seen the glorious 90s of Hong Kong films, but this time Bai Di took the leading role."

"The script is indeed excellent! You must watch the Cantonese version. You must watch the Cantonese version. The ending of the Mandarin version is at least 0.5 points lower."

"The most awesome thing is the dialogue between Brother Thirteen and himself at the end, [Don't shoot, if you shoot there will be no difference between you and them], [I am also a human being, why should we be separated] You asked me to write an article of several hundred words I couldn’t even express my feelings when writing about Mathews’ shooting in a composition, but Brother Thirteen accurately expressed it in just a few seconds. Damn, is this the legendary fan-shaped eye? Brother Thirteen’s eyes are the best. Who agrees with whom? be opposed to?"

Wait, there may be negative reviews.

Some viewers thought that the participation in the case was too low and that the protagonist relied on cheating to solve the case. Some viewers also gave negative reviews because of the Mandarin ending, where He Ping'an turned himself in at the police station.

But with an eight-point opening, most viewers definitely praised it.

Look at the comments section of Clash of No Kings again.

"Why do the Seven Kings want to kill the male protagonist? The male protagonist's enemy is the BOSS behind the scenes. Aren't the Seven Kings always planning to take over the organization?"

"The logic is flawed. The male protagonist has no grudge against the big boss. Why should Mao be so tough?"

There are many bugs in the plot logic of "Clash of the Kings", but even so, the special effects are excellent and the fighting scenes are really good.

Therefore, the market is still in reverse. The box office of No King has exceeded 11 billion, breaking the first week box office record of the Labor Day period in less than a week.

The box office of Detective has just reached 3.5 million, which is two levels behind. Huang Baiyou couldn't help but sigh, Yuan Xiangshi's appeal is still strong, and as long as he gets a good script, he can surpass the top.

It's normal. People invest more than [-] million yuan, not counting the publicity fee, and it takes [-] billion to get back the capital. High investment and high returns are like this in any industry.

The investment in "Detective" has already made a profit. For the investors, it is another manifestation of Huang Baiyou's appeal.

After all, other films were so squeezed by "A Contest of Kings" that they couldn't even drink soup, and their reputations were still poor.

But the detective not only drank soup, but also ate meat, which was very nourishing.

Official accounts started celebrating.

Detective’s official Weibo: [ #神探 Box Office Breaks 3 Million # The box office of the movie “Detective” exceeded 3 million!Hard to come by, thank you and pay attention!
The movie is in high-energy theaters, so see you in the theater! ]
Of course, after watching the movie, many viewers couldn’t understand it and asked questions online.

Especially a netizen named Jincheng Xiaomu, who asked four questions in a row, which completely captured the hearts and minds of the audience——

"After watching the movie, can anyone answer three questions for me? ① Why was the ear cut off? ② Is Matthews sick or has a special talent? ③ What is the logic of He Ping'an changing guns in the ending scene? ④ Matthews is invisible to others Is his wife the dirty thing in his heart?"

Since the audience wrote sincerely, film critic Dai Jinxiu responded mercifully.

However, Dai Jinxiu’s answer was first a question, [@黄白游无梦_@伟庄Director_@JuXilei is Copernicus, is the close-up of the car door that appeared several times intentional, or is it a conspiracy? ]
You have to ask first before you can answer. After all, although Dai Jinxiu did not attend the premiere, she is very interested in the movie.
