   Chapter 450 The outcome has been decided! Fountain fainted

   "How much is the box office?"

"this…"

   "What? Is there anything I can't say?"

   "Director Chen, this data is really..."

   "Is it too little?"

   "Cough cough, there are still many cinemas that have not yet released. If you look at the box office, it will be relatively incomplete."

   "Oh, I see what you mean."

  Xu Feng told the truth, she couldn't bear to see Da Dao Chen this time.

   She is already very good at talking, but such words are obviously useless.

   That's right, the box office of "Assassin Qin" is over!

  Although, in the current mainland film market, the reform of the theater chain system is just the beginning, that is to say, it is difficult to achieve a large-scale nationwide launch at once.

   Usually starts from the north and goes all the way to the south.

   However, as far as the feedback from several major cities in the north is concerned... it is really not optimistic.

   Where is this major city?

   First, the four major cities in the Northeast.

   These are relatively representative consumer markets in the mainland at present, and they are quite important places.

   As far as the current situation is concerned, everyone who is in the market understands that the market in Northeast China is very important.

  Although it has been reopened at present, the Pearl River Delta has begun to develop explosively, but...the capitalists over there are really not human.

   The wages paid to the workers are really not much. As for the legends about earning more, the price is the long working hours.

   It’s not that there is no development there, but that the current consumption there is really not up, it’s not that there are no big money, it’s not that there are no rich people, it’s that ordinary people are still in a state where it is difficult to really consume.

   is very simple, either you make less money, or you work hard to make money, how can you spend it?

   And especially this movie, because this kind of consumption itself is not the kind of relatively basic consumption.

   This is a spiritual and cultural need.

  Imagine, an assembly line worker has been working for at least 10 hours a day, where does he have time to go to the cinema to watch a movie?

   So, as far as the movie market is concerned, the Pearl River Delta was not very active for a long time.

  The Yangtze River Delta is better, even in the Sichuan and Sichuan areas, it is not bad.

   In such a situation, the northern market is even more important.

   At least, for now, the economic system here is more of a state-owned enterprise or a collective enterprise. The benefits of employees are okay. Although the wages may not be high, there are more breaks.

   This is even more so on the northeast side, where the mass layoffs are at this stage.

  Although this matter has a great influence, such as "The Piano of Steel", you will basically feel a kind of sadness after watching it.

   However, in the pursuit of spirituality, Northeast China is actually at the forefront of the country.

   is still "The Piano of Steel", why does the hero want to make a piano of steel?

   Right, for the children.

   Actually, "The Piano of Steel" is just a small city. Well, the original city is not small.

   But like the hero, there are many Northeastern parents who are willing to invest in art for their children.

  Because of this, there is Lang Lang, who is who and who is who...

   There are many, many, many, too many. In the circles of Chinese art or entertainment, people from the Northeast occupy more than half of the country.

   Of course, in summary, this is because of the first-mover advantage. After all, the economy here was very good in the past.

   But let’s not talk about it, the art of film needs a market, and this market is currently very important in Northeast China and the Beijing-Tianjin region.

   But, what happened to "Assassination Qin" this time?

   "I don't understand, there seem to be many dialects."

   "I don't know what you're talking about."

   "In terms of the plot... the whole feeling is just very exciting, and everyone is working hard."

  Yes, the first one is that I don't understand!

   This incomprehensible statement really came from fans who paid money to watch movies in theaters, and this statement was given at the first time.

   is still given by a big TV station!

  How big is the TV station?

  CCTV, is it big enough?

   There are also provincial Taiwan in several places, which all give such a picture.

   Generally speaking, the word-of-mouth of movies this year requires some on-site investigation.

   is to find some audience members at the entrance of the cinema and take a questionnaire.

  This method is very popular abroad, and Japan and Hong Kong also do a lot.

   However, what we do in China is relatively general.

   is indeed doing it, but doing this kind of work, we Asians will have that kind of... sorry, or so-so.

   Even, the comparison is perfunctory.

   As everyone knows, there are piles of papers, just write them yourself and it will be over. Anyway, the above checks are not strict.

right?

   But this time is different!

   CCTV went straight to the show, and several provincial stations in the north that showed the film were able to come out.

  Why?

   This movie is the work of your Director Chen!

   Who is your Da Dao Chen?

   That is the only winner of the top prize at the Cannes Film Festival in our country.

   Right, the film "Farewell My Concubine" is so awesome, so where can this "Assassination of Qin" be so bad?

   Basically, the TV station has good intentions.

   But, the result is such a result.

  Most of the movie fans are complaining about this movie, or simply giving bad reviews.

   As for that one I don’t understand…

   That's right!

  The main market is the Northeast. Everyone in the Northeast feels like they are speaking Mandarin.

   We are speaking in Mandarin, so when we listen to your lines in this movie, it is difficult for us to understand, so what do you mean?

   Actually, as far as Director Chen is concerned, why did he develop this dialect?

   To be honest, this approach still has a certain theoretical basis.

   College students who have studied Chinese know that there is a language course, which includes dialects.

   There is also the historical change of Chinese.

   In short, from a historical point of view, it is basically impossible for us modern people to understand what the ancient Chinese said 500 years ago.

   Of course, we still have an advantage. With the existence of Chinese characters, we can understand them.

   But if you listen with your ears, it is no different from listening to a foreign language.

   In other words, if you really go through it, you will have to get used to it for a while at least.

The most obvious example of    is that we can see some sentences in ancient poems. According to our current pronunciation, they do not rhyme.

   But in fact, in terms of ancient pronunciation, it is very rhyming and very neat.

   So, according to this theory, what happened in the pre-Qin period, what kind of accent should Qin Shihuang have?

   To be sure, it is not even the local accent of Sanqin now.

   This theory is OK, but Da Dao Chen went a little too far.

  The accents he asked the actors to speak in it were combined with the very forceful performances, plus a current objective condition.

  Many cinemas, even the big cinemas in the capital, actually have most of the audio equipment in a state of aging.

   is that the hardware is not so good.

   This time, everyone really doesn't understand!

   The movie was incomprehensible, and what I was watching was a crazy dramatic performance.

  The movie viewing experience can be imagined.

   In fact, for now, there is another point that has not been complained about by many people.

   That is, in the film of Director Chen, a lot of yellow filters are used.

   This kind of filter is actually something that the Japanese media often use when they shoot us in China.

   Adding this thing will make it look earthy and outdated.

   Yellow, that's all.

   And such a picture, compared with Takeshi Iwata, is a stark contrast!

  Iwata Takeshi's shot is obviously more beautiful.

   In fact, this filter can distinguish the 'three views'. If the three views are correct, just like the film "Dunhuang", there is no need for a yellow filter.

   So, can the box office of "Assassination Qin" be better?

   Chen Da Dao was a dead duck at first, and he did not admit his failure.

   After waiting for ten days, the data is like this...

   "Less than ten million?"

   "This... that's exactly what it is."

  Xu Feng brought the report, and his face was very ugly, but Da Dao Chen was different.

   He was sitting there without speaking for a long time.

   defeated, defeated!

   However, there is a silver lining.

   What about Japan?

  Xu Feng's expression is even more exciting.

  …

  Tokyo, it's hot again.

   "Great victory! Supervisor Iwata defeated Supervisor Chen!"

   ""Jing Ke Assassinate the King of Qin" beats "Assassinate Qin"!"

   "Same theme, but the outcome is already divided!"

  The Japanese media is even hotter. They made a strong attack this time and directly reported the release of the two films.

  Take Iwata and Dao Chen, two great directors, both made movies with the same theme, and the result...

   was really crushed.

  Let's put it this way, Iwata Takeshi is relatively fair, he did not suppress Chen Da Dao in terms of film arrangement.

   But unfortunately, there are really few people to see it, and the attendance rate is really low.

  So and so, what else can I say?

   Actually, the performance in Japan has a lot to do with the picture.

  Yeah, which movie has a better picture?

   This is not obvious!

  Who would like to see something that looks old and yellow?

  In this way, Takeshi Iwata completely crushed Chen Dazhi in Japan!

  Then this result…

   "Siguoyi!"

  Spring also came to support the movie as always. After watching it, I was very excited.

   means great, the point is…

  Oh, no, what's going on?

   The fountain fainted

  …

  PS: I really thought about the chapter name for a long time, but I really don't know how to start it, so that's it, sorry.

   (end of this chapter)
