Chinese Entertainment's Shining Star

"It's a very interesting movie."

"I'm so moved. It would be great if I could have a love story like the hero and heroine."

"The comics are restored quite well..."

As the movie ended, the audience began to leave one after another, but the discussion about the movie had just begun. Just now, they were immersed in the plot and focused more on the movie being played. Now that the movie was over, they put their minds back and began to discuss the plot enthusiastically.

While the iron is hot, there are also special staff at the entrance of the theater handing out questionnaires to interview hundreds of audiences about their views on the movie.

"What does it feel like to see yourself on the big screen?" Maybe the audience responded well, Du Qifeng looked quite relaxed, and was in the mood to do an "interview" with Nie Wei.

"It's quite strange." Nie Wei smiled: "It's like seeing another self. I think the only people who can have this experience, besides actors, are schizophrenia patients."

"Hahahaha." Du Qifeng, who was amused by Nie Wei's joke, patted Nie Wei's shoulder: "You go back to the hotel first, I'll go see the guests off, and we'll wait for the results together later."

"No problem." Nie Wei nodded, he knew that the results Du Qifeng was talking about were tonight's box office data.

Although this thing does not account for a large proportion of the overall box office, after all, it is only one night's box office, but in the eyes of some experienced directors and producers, they can also see the future box office potential of this movie. Not to mention the whole country, they can see 50% to 60%, so Du Qifeng still attaches great importance to it.

"What do you think our box office can be tonight?" On the way back to the hotel, Liang Yongqi, who had been silent all the time, suddenly asked Nie Wei this question.

"The three places combined should be more than one million, right?" Nie Wei thought for a while and answered.

"A million? I'll give you a good wish." Hearing the number guessed by Nie Wei, Liang Yongqi smiled. If it was really the number Nie Wei said, then she, the heroine, could really breathe a sigh of relief.

You know, in addition to the director and the producer, the male and female protagonists are also responsible for the box office.

However, for this movie, the heroine is mainly responsible for the box office. Although Nie Wei is the male lead, it is his first time to act in a movie after all.

"GIGI, don't worry. I see that the director looks relaxed and confident. We, as actors, just wait for the result." Nie Wei's smart brain immediately figured out the reason why Liang Yongqi was silent at this time, so he comforted her.

"How could I be worried? I'm very confident. Besides, our Nie Wei performed very well. I heard Liu Dehua praise you."

"Is it the one that praises me for being handsome? Although I'm very modest, I still have to accept this sentence. After all, it's a fact in front of me."

"Hey, I haven't seen you for a few months. You're thick-skinned again."

With Nie Wei's jokes, the two chatted and laughed back to the hotel. After parting at the door of the room, Nie Wei returned to the room and logged into his blog as soon as possible, because he knew that with the release of the movie, there would definitely be viewers who would use the blog as a place to express their opinions.

As expected, Nie Wei calculated the time. Less than half an hour after the first round of broadcasts in the mainland, the comments under his latest blog had already expressed their opinions on the movie.

"Nie Wei's film debut is good. I give it four stars out of five. The downside is that the story is a bit thin, but it's enough for a romance film."

"Brother's acting is great. I was moved to tears during the crying scene."

"The echo of the umbrella is very creative, and the director's handling of the love line is also very delicate. It's just that our Nie Wei's acting skills are not very good. I always feel that the characterization is still a bit superficial, not as impressive as the picture book. In my mind, I give it 80 points, 60 points for the movie, and 20 points for the impression of Nie Wei and Liang Yongqi, two handsome men and beautiful women."

"In the vast sea of ​​people, they are destined to be together. It's a love story that makes people feel moved when they watch it."

"Nie Wei can only be described as 'handsome' in the film."

There are praises and criticisms, but most of them are dissatisfied with the story line of the movie. As for the performance of Nie Wei and Liang Yongqi, there are few people who find fault.

However, the original picture book has hundreds of pages. If you want to put all the content into a movie, you must have your own original content. This is definitely a test for the editor. To be honest, in Nie Wei's opinion, the plot of this movie is already good, at least for a love movie.

Most of the audience's dissatisfaction is probably due to the original work. This is the disadvantage of the adapted work. No matter how you shoot it, there will always be something that does not conform to the original readers' hearts.

However, in the comments, Nie Wei also saw that some netizens were asking for the soundtrack in the movie, that is, "Meeting", but they don't know the name of the song yet, but the number of this part of people is really quite large. Nie Wei flipped through a few pages of short reviews and found that there were netizens asking for this song on every page.

"It is worthy of being a classic song that has won more than ten gold awards, and it will be the future Golden Horse soundtrack." Looking at these comments asking for songs, Nie Wei couldn't help but sigh, but although he was the original author, the song had been sold to the record company, so he couldn't post the song link privately.

After flipping through the comments of netizens, Nie Wei changed another account, where he followed some professional film critics, and Nie Wei also wanted to see their opinions.

"As the song goes, meeting is the most beautiful accident. The ending of the original work is very sad. A man and a woman finally missed each other's fate. This is undoubtedly the most regretful thing for comic fans, but this regret is reflected in the movie When the earthquake collapsed the wall separating them, the hero and heroine finally came together.

Some people may say that people have joys and sorrows, and the moon waxes and wanes. Just like in the original work, sometimes regrets are beautiful, but people in this world cannot always live too realistically, and fairy tale-like happiness will also give People are satisfied. I believe I am not the only one who likes a happy ending, and this movie can bring comfort to people's souls. ”——Film critic Xue Qiao

"There will be many kinds of coincidences in life, and seemingly two parallel lines will intersect. Director Du Qifeng is a good storyteller. Even if the story is very simple, he tells it very cleverly.

In the movie, Nie Wei left a deep impression on me. As a newcomer to the big screen for the first time, his performance was remarkable. He was cool when he needed to be cool, and he was also unambiguous when acting was needed. In terms of performance, , I think it even surpasses the heroine Liang Yongqi. I think I can give an excellent score to Nie Wei, a newcomer's film answer. "——"Apple Media" Liu Wen

"I like to judge a movie by scores. For this "Go Left, Go Right", I give the score 100 points. This is the only thing in the whole movie that makes me feel that it will still be remembered by the audience ten years later. Where Nie Wei's musical talent is fully revealed. I think if this movie finally does well at the box office, this song can have at least one-third of the credit.

As for the performance of the male and female protagonists, I give it 80%. It’s not that they are incapable of achieving full marks, but that this movie limits their hands and feet. Of course, this is an average score. I think Nie Wei’s performance can be 90%. This is An actor who can impress people even if he plays a youth idol movie. He is an actor who can act with his eyes. Compared to GIGI, his performance is lacking and his handling of some emotions is too stiff.

As for the movie itself, I can only give it sixty points. It is a passable love movie, but that's all. ” – John, Film Herald.

While Nie Wei was browsing these short reviews, there was a knock on the guest room door.

Opening the door, it turned out to be Luo Kai.

"Huayi has given us news that the first round attendance rate is about 50%, which is quite satisfactory. The age difference of the audience is mainly between 16-30, especially the 25-30 age group accounts for the majority of the audience." Luo Kaiyi He reported as soon as he entered the house.

As a powerful player in the mainland's film and television industry, Huayi naturally has convenient channels to learn about the box office news of its movie as soon as possible.

"Do you have an estimate of how much the mainland box office will be tonight?" Nie Wei asked.

"There should be hundreds of thousands." Luo Kai gave a vague number.

Hundreds of thousands? Nie Wei frowned and looked at Luo Kai. When the other party said this number, whether it was 100,000 or 900,000, it was obvious that he was not optimistic that the movie would break the million mark, although the development of mainland theaters was not in place these days. , but to be honest, there is still a big gap between this number and Nie Wei's expectations.

After all, in Nie Wei's era, even at this midnight time, if the box office did not exceed 10 million, it was considered a failure. He had set his goal to one-tenth of the future, but he did not expect that he had not yet achieved it.

After Luo Kai finished talking about the numbers, he pointed at Nie Wei to see how happy he was, but he didn't expect the other party to frown, which surprised him.

You must know that this is not an American blockbuster, nor is it a big star-studded production. Even if a romance film with a small investment has the basis of a picture book, you cannot say that it can really sell hundreds of millions in box office. Besides, the mainland is not interested in this picture book. I’m not too cold about it, its real fan base is still in Baodao.

It would be great if a movie like this could sell three to four million dollars in mainland China, but now it can earn hundreds of thousands in one night, so it's time to have fun secretly.

"Nie Wei, what's wrong with you? Are you not satisfied with this number?"

"Isn't it a little too little?" Nie Wei gestured with her hand and asked with an ugly expression.

"Young Master!?" Luo Kai couldn't help but raise his voice when he heard this answer, because he was so surprised by Nie Wei's idea.

However, thinking that Nie Wei was still a newcomer to the film industry and might not have a clear idea about box office, he quickly explained.

"Ancestor, this box office is really a lot. You are too big-hearted. Do you mean that this small movie will break 10 million? I believe that if it can reach 5 million, everyone from the producer to the director will have fun. One hundred thousand is definitely beyond their imagination." Having said this, Luo Kai waved his hand excitedly and said to Nie Wei: "Speaking of which, the box office is so good because of you. You are very popular in the mainland. Fans come to the cinema just for your sake.”

"It seems that I still have some use?" Hearing Luo Kai's words, Nie Wei couldn't help but laugh. Before the release, these guys kept instilling the theory of "uselessness" in themselves, as if they had nothing to do with the box office of this movie. The relationship is the same. Now that Luo Kai said this, my mood suddenly improved.

"Of course it works." Luo Kai said loudly, "Whoever dares to deny it is worried about it." "I asked Luo Yuan to investigate it personally. Your fans are quite enthusiastic."

"I know." Nie Wei smiled and sent a message directly while the blog was still open.

"Thank you fans for supporting my first movie, I love you."

Nie Wei's message was well received beyond his expectation. In just ten minutes, there were already thousands of messages below, all from waiting fans, many of whom had just walked out of the cinema.

"I knew that my brother would definitely post a blog, right! Do you still need to say thank you? You are our idol, and of course we will do our best to support you. I have already bought the tickets for the second show!"

"I am touched. Nie Wei, your movie is so great. You are worthy of being my idol. I didn't see it enough once, so I will see it again."

"I want to see it a second time, too."

"Let's go together!"

Looking at the lines of encouraging messages and the fans who shouted that they wanted to see it a second time, Nie Wei felt as if there was a warm stove in his heart.

Luo Kai, who was standing behind Nie Wei, looked at these messages, with more excitement on his face.

"Wow, if these fans really go to see it again, then tonight's box office might really be a miracle." Luo Kai was very clear about the number of Nie Wei's fans. If they were really willing to go to the cinema a second time, then the box office would definitely have a small leap.

"Of course, I believe they will support me." Nie Wei answered as a matter of course after hearing Luo Kai's words.

Luo Kai shrugged his shoulders after hearing this, without commenting.

Time passed little by little. At half past ten, Du Qifeng also rushed back to the hotel. After greeting Nie Wei and Liang Yongqi, several people took their assistants and agents and simply found a restaurant to have a midnight snack while waiting for the results after midnight.

This midnight snack was quite boring, mainly because everyone's mind was no longer on eating, which could be seen from the fact that no one even ordered wine. Everyone ordered a table of dishes, but the chopsticks were not moved for a few times. Most of the time, they chatted about some interesting things when they were filming to pass the time.

Time quickly passed eleven fifty-five, which was the time when the last show of tonight ended.

In the remaining half an hour, some large-scale theaters would be able to count the box office data for that night. In this last half an hour, no one even had the mood to chat.

Everyone either watched TV or fiddled with their mobile phones, but their minds were not on these things at all.

The ticking sound of the clock makes people irritable. After all, the waiting time is the longest. Nie Wei is carefree. He feels a little sleepy while waiting and falls asleep on the table.

Until the phone rings and wakes him up, he opens his eyes and sees Du Qifeng listening to the phone nervously. Then Nie Wei suddenly finds that the other party's eyes suddenly look at him, with a sense of surprise and a touch of surprise...
