Full-time actor

Chapter 384 [67] Sweeping the world!
"House of Flying Daggers" surpassed "The Matrix 3" and set a new box office record for zero-point movies in China! 》

"As expected of Zhang Yimou, his record can only be broken by himself!" 》

"Hero" has become a thing of the past, will "House of Flying Daggers" become a new legend? 》

"..."

Recently, the domestic Internet is obviously based on Lao Mouzi, and there are all kinds of propaganda every day; I don’t know how much is paid and how much is free.

But the popularity is indeed unprecedented, and even "Hero" did not enjoy this kind of treatment back then.

When Chen Yu opened the webpage, he saw all kinds of rumors, but he was already somewhat immune to this kind of news.

Looking at domestic film reviews is the key.

Xingkong.com is currently the largest rating website for movies, TV series and novels in China. Without competitors and Erdong.com’s continuous traffic output, there really is no one that can beat it; what’s more, Chen Yu almost copied the Douban model.

It has a click-through rate of millions every day and the number of users has exceeded the 20 mark.

"Better looking than a hero!"

Moreover, it may increase in the future.

This is of course the Star Sky Rating, which is no different from Douban in the previous life. Even now that there are no trolls and background operations, this rating is the most realistic judgment.

Chen Yu happens to know the film critic ranked first.

Because there are not many users rating it right now, there are 1245 people in total, most of them probably came back after watching the premiere yesterday, or did it after waking up in the morning.

"This should be the most outstanding martial arts movie ever made in China. Like the previous "Shaolin Temple" and "Double Flag Town Swordsman", although the fighting is also very good, the picture is a bit rough. Director Zhang Yimou made Chen Yu shoot Very beautiful and handsome!”

"It's hard to imagine that he doesn't look thick or short at all, but he is so powerful!"

The one with the most likes is indeed the same as Chen Yu's idea - isn't this the costume version of "Infernal Affairs"? It's a pity that it is far different from "Infernal Affairs"!

7.9?

"His moves are not as rich as Li Lianjie's, and he doesn't have the inter-community fighting like Cheng Long, but he is very crisp and explosive, and his strikes are very powerful!"

"The aura of the female boss!"

"The most impressive thing for everyone after watching "House of Flying Daggers" is probably the fight scene in it. With the blessing of teacher Cheng Xiaodong, Chen Yu didn't need a substitute in it, and it was completely fun!"

"I met Chen Yu two years ago. At that time, he was still an art candidate with no reputation, but Xiao Liang in "Kara" was impressive enough!"

A huge rating appeared next to the web page of "House of Flying Daggers".

"Chen Yu is really handsome to me, how can he be so handsome!"

"The role of eldest sister is so domineering!"

"Just for this fight, the tickets are worth it!"

"..."

However, the Internet scoring mechanism has just been formed, so it is normal to have this score. However, the score of "House of Flying Daggers" in the previous life did not seem to exceed 6 points, which is a bit outrageous.

To be honest, Chen Yu is quite satisfied with this score of 7.9.

"In the past few years, I have witnessed with my own eyes how he climbed to the top of Berlin, then Venice, and now Cannes!"

Guan Lin, I have been a fan of him since "Kala", and the reviews of the movie are really positive.

"I was fortunate enough to meet directors Chen Yu and Zhang Yimou at the premiere of the New Film Festival in the Imperial City. Chen Yu gave me a completely different feeling from the movie. He was very calm and didn't talk much. He didn't look like a 20-year-old at all. Instead, he was very... He is restrained and has great star looks. In my opinion, he is even more handsome than in the movie. He is the kind of actor who has a very cinematic quality, but he is sincere enough!"

"I don't know what heights he can reach in the future, but at least the feeling he gave me this time is still the same as the one I saw 2 years ago, full of humility and politeness as an actor; I can't imagine at all, he How did you complete the play "House of Flying Daggers"!"

"Especially the hand-to-hand combat, the fight is very beautiful and direct, and the winner can almost be determined within a few moves!"

“Full five stars!”

After reading the short reviews with ratings, Chen Yu read more than a dozen long reviews from film critics. Without exception, they were all 3-5 star reviews.

His movies have no brainer to criticize.

Chen Yu was flipping through the short comments there. They were all praising him. There were at least 5 out of the ten comments. Of course, there were also comments from Zhang Ziyi, but... Mei Yanfang had more comments than her.

"How come this eldest sister, Aunt Mei, makes me feel like Brigitte Lin is the undefeated Dongfang!"

“What impressed me the most was the scene of him standing on horseback, holding a knife with his hands crossed. It was really cool. It made the pores all over my body explode. It was really amazing. As soon as he appeared on the stage, I was shocked by his scene!”

And the most outrageous thing is Lao Mouzi’s anti-fans.

In fact, after watching "House of Flying Daggers" premiered in Cannes, his inner score was between 7.0 and 7.5, which is actually a bit high at the moment.

"Because in reality, he doesn't seem to be very good at fighting, but more like a showman who is very good at acting. But last night I asked him to show off his figure, and many people in the audience screamed. That was really good. Not only the abdominal muscles, but also the arms!”

It will rise little by little in later generations.

"So many people scored 9-10 points, and 31 people scored 1 point..."

"Zhang Yimou is as stable as ever!"

"I feel like I can become the next person after Cheng Long and Li Lianjie!"

"Chen Yu is invincible in action, and finally another action star is born!"

Chen Yu looked at them one by one. In addition to nearly a thousand positive comments, of course there were also some scoldings.

"It is said that Chen Yu did not use Wia at all when shooting this shot. He shot it in one shot without using a stunt double!"

"It's a pity that he doesn't have an opponent in the show. The action scenes in "Hero" are incomparable to this show. But at least Jet Li and Zhen Zi have fought several times. Chen Yu has no opponent. He should be the biggest character in this show. What a pity!”

"Hua Zai's action scenes are still lacking a lot. When I look at the fight between the stunt double and Chen Yu, they lack the sense of a fight between you and me!"

"Of course, apart from the good-looking actions, the reversal of the story, Zhang Yimou's scenes, and Chen Yu's acting skills, they are all the top cast in the industry. They are both good at fighting and a police officer with tender eyes. This is What a rare scene!”

"Some people say that this drama is a costume version of "Infernal Affairs." I actually disagree. In "Infernal Affairs", there are only two main characters with dark identities, while in "House of Flying Daggers" all the members have multiple identities!"

"No spoilers here, but the duality of Chen Yu's character, romantic and foolish, is something that "Infernal Affairs" does not have!"

"Finally, let me talk about the two outstanding characters, Mei Gu's eldest sister and Zhang Ziyi's younger sister. Both characters' acting skills are very good. In the final battle, the younger sister's affectionate and the eldest sister's universal enemy made me I saw the contrast between war and emotion!”

"In short, this is a rare masterpiece and another sign of Zhang Yimou surpassing "Hero". Whether it is the viewing quality, the texture of the picture, the use of lenses, the action, etc., it is of a higher quality than "Hero". "Zhang Yimou's shooting of commercial blockbusters is more mature. If you like Chinese martial arts, this is definitely a masterpiece not to be missed..."

Chen Yu read it word for word, and a smile couldn't help but appear on his lips.

It can be seen that Guan Lin is undoubtedly his biggest fan, because he is the most written about him in the whole story; but it can also be reflected from the side that his performance in this drama is really good, at least in the scenes, he convinced the audience of.

This is enough.

After reading several more movie reviews, Chen Yu could finally close the computer with confidence and look forward to the box office performance of "House of Flying Daggers".

The reputation of "House of Flying Daggers" in this life is really good. Although it is not at the top level, the quality surpasses "Hero".

His roles, fighting scenes and acting skills are all well-known, but Andy Lau is the least mentioned.

Whether it's acting or fighting, he lacks a lot.

In fact, this phenomenon can be seen from the box office of Xiangjiang; Andy Lau currently does not have any box office appeal. In this regard, Jet Li in the mainland in the past was much better than him.

Even in later generations, he would be worse than Zhen Tan.

The most outstanding thing about Liu Dehua is probably his character. He has been working consistently for so many years. Whether it is towards fans or peers, he has almost no negative comments.

But neither the acting nor the singing has reached the top level, so the box office does reflect some of the situation.

It can't even pull in the box office in Xiangjiang, let alone the mainland.

"Let's see if this show can attract a wave of fans through action!"

"Without box office appeal, it's all a lie!"

Of course, Chen Yu's fighting scenes are most praised in film reviews; his acting skills are rarely mentioned, but Chen Yu is still very confident and can make the audience fall in love with his role.

If this drama can accumulate some audience popularity, and "Kung Fu" can accumulate more, and then rely on the new movie to become an instant hit, its box office appeal should be stable.

Cheng Long, Jet Li and Xingye did not achieve their current status through one drama.

However, it is indeed thanks to several high-grossing masterpieces that it has stabilized its own box office.

……

Chen Yu still has a road show today, and he has to go to several major theaters in the imperial capital, but in the magic capital and Shencheng, he really doesn't have that time.

At 10:, he appeared at the Capital Cinema in the Imperial Capital on time.

This theater chain is famous. It is the earliest one in China. It has gone through more than 60 years of ups and downs. It was built in 1937 by the famous Peking Opera performing artist Mr. Ma Lianliang and others. It was first named "Xinxin Grand Theater" .

After liberation, a certain person personally named it the capital.

When Chen Yu arrived, Lao Mouzi and others had not yet arrived; he was quite pleased to see the crowds of people queuing up to buy tickets at the door.

On the first day of the release of "House of Flying Daggers", the atmosphere was even more enthusiastic than the pre-sales in the previous few days.

The movie's reputation hasn't even arrived in a day, but it has already begun to ferment.

In the previous life, Douban was only launched in March 05, and "House of Flying Daggers" had been released for more than half a year; but in this life, relying on the score of Xingkong.com, the high score of 3 still made many movie lovers. Went into the cinema.

These people originally had a wait-and-see attitude, but after the scores and evaluations came out, they became a little excited.

The tickets for the early show have been completely sold out, and now it is the third show, but they are all pre-sale audiences; those who buy tickets on the spot will have to wait at least two days.

Before "Hero" came out, there were actually very few movie theaters in the country; even now, apart from about a hundred movie theaters in the Imperial Capital and Magic City, many small counties only have 1-2 at most.

Therefore, pre-sale has always been a deeply ingrained way of buying tickets.

Not to mention buying tickets online, many people buy them and watch them on the spot. Nowadays, there are movies that cannot be bought on the spot, but it has created a sensation, so the pre-sales are also selling well.

After finally finishing the road show at the Capital Cinema, Chen Yu and Lao Mouzi were eating their meals backstage.

The pre-sales and actual box office of "House of Flying Daggers" have been released this morning.

Just by looking at Lao Mouzi smiling from ear to ear, you can tell that the sales of "House of Flying Daggers" are very good, and "Hero" has really become a thing of the past.

The box office is 1100 million, and pre-sales have exceeded 7000 million. Let alone "Hero", there has never been such a terrifying time in China.

The box office trend of Xiangjiang today is better than yesterday.

After eating, Chen Yu and others rushed to the next cinema again.

Just five days later, the popularity of "House of Flying Daggers" is no longer limited to the country. With the premiere in Japan, South Korea, Singapore and other countries, a wave of martial arts buzz about "House of Flying Daggers" has spread throughout Asia. The wind; North America and Europe also experienced a situation where it was difficult to get a ticket.

In the early hours of this morning, "House of Flying Daggers" was released in Europe, North America and other countries. France, Britain and the United States all adopted ultra-low-definition films arranged by some museums to test the waters.

This has always been the rule for Western releases.

When foreign language films want to enter the European and North American markets, it is impossible to give you a super high-scheduled film or a full release at the beginning. There are only two exceptions in China, Jet Li or Cheng Long, who can be treated as a full release.

For example, "Heroes" in the past two years was released in 2031 theaters. There are currently only about 2200 theaters in the United States, so this is equivalent to a full release.

And Cheng Long can almost do the same.

Even if it is as strong as "Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon", only 16 theaters were opened in North America at the beginning, giving you a chance to screen and open the film; but in the end, the North American market took 1.28 million US dollars, creating a martial arts film of miracles.

This record is also the best result for a foreign language film in the world.

Today, "House of Flying Daggers" is treated better than the original "Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon."

For the sake of Lao Mouzi, Sony got 120 venues and only showed about 10 shows a day.

Unless it counterattacks, it will be difficult to win 1000 million US dollars at the box office.

Although Chen Yu has been paying attention to the global box office of "House of Flying Daggers" these days, Olympic rehearsals are still going on every other day.

But early in the morning on the 20th, he received a call from his father, Chen Peidong.

"Go home for dinner tonight!"

"Ok!"

Chen Yu didn't take it seriously. After rehearsing for a day, he drove home.
