You Don’t Understand The Pain Of Being Popular - Chapter 149
Han Cunyang’s article was published this morning, and up to now, the number of likes on the commentary article has reached six figures.
And, the attention is still increasing.
[Fuck, why did the blogger change his name? 】
[Wake up, Yang Cunhan, that’s a loyal fan of director Mi Xiu, how could he betray him. 】
[Two days ago: If “Jiuzhou Mountains and Seas” is of high quality, I will write the name upside down.
Two days later: Hello everyone, my name is Yang Cunhan. 】
There was laughter in the comment area, and one after another began to play tricks.
Of course, many people also paid attention to another issue.
[So… the quality of “Jiuzhou Shan Hai Ji” is really that good? 】
[It’s hard to imagine, what makes director Mi Xiu’s die-hard fans kneel down, I’m already curious. 】
Soon, these curious people found the answer in a new article published by Han Cunyang.
Han Cunyang: “Brothers, I have to apologize for my impulsive remarks before. Facts have proved that “Jiuzhou Shanhaiji” is really good! Give it to me! (Note, this article contains a lot of spoilers, read carefully) “
“First of all, in terms of special effects, the special effects of fantasy scenes in “Jiuzhou Mountains and Seas” are outstanding. Whether it is the towering tree house with a height of hundreds of meters where the human race lives, or the green hills and magpie mountains where the mountains and seas are located, All of them carry the magnificent color of ancient Chinese mythology.”
“The special effects of these scenes are not just big scenes, but also connected with the plot and emotion. When these scenes are given emotions, the audience will not easily forget them.”
“For example, after seeing the towering tree house, we will subconsciously think of the life scenes of the human race in the world of mountains and seas; when we see the mysterious and beautiful Que Mountain, we will subconsciously think of the scene of the final decisive battle against the flood.”
“All special effects scenes are not just about spending money and making them bigger, they are qualified special effects. Only by connecting the special effects with the plot can the audience be moved.”
“The temptations and dangers of the natural world, gradually integrated into this beautiful world through taste, touch, audio-visual enjoyment, and the primitive power to conquer natural beasts… all of these are perfect!”
“Why do we feel the same panic and sadness as the characters in the movie when the flood is raging? It is because the previous special effects scenes are so perfect that we will feel distressed when we destroy them.”
“As long as the magnificence and strangeness of the mountain and sea world are not presented in the early stage, and there is a lack of a lot of foreshadowing, then the post-apocalyptic flood in the later stage will not be able to create a shocking feeling.”
[I have watched “Jiuzhou Mountains and Seas” and “Deep Sea Abyss” at the same time. I must say that the investment is also close to two billion. The special effects of the former can make me feel the shock that I can’t forget for a long time, but the special effects of the latter But let me forget it. 】
[Indeed, Abyss is a popcorn movie, and it’s completely incomparable with Yao Bianliang’s. 】
[It’s true, Qingqiu’s part is really amazing! Such a special effect scene perfectly fits the image of Xianshan in my mind. 】
Han Cunyang: “After talking about the special effects, let’s talk about the modeling of the alien beast.”
“I have to say that the crew of “Jiuzhou Mountains and Seas” is too sincere. I even have reason to suspect that they spent 90% of their investment on special effects and modeling!”
“The number of alien beasts is very large. From the beginning to the end, a total of more than 20 images of alien beasts and mythical beasts appeared. The modeling and special effects of each are perfect, and they can be used as the final boss of the movie. However, in “Jiuzhou Shanhai In “Journal”, many scenes of strange beasts are only a few short shots.”
“Moreover, what is amazing is that this movie has also innovated in many places. For example, the mythical beast nine-tailed fox, generally speaking, appears on the screen as a ‘fox spirit’. But Jiuzhou Shanhaiji is the opposite. It is beautiful and sacred at the same time, which perfectly fits the image of the nine-tailed fox as an auspicious beast in the Classic of Mountains and Seas.”
…
Han Cunyang’s review article is very long, with more than 2,000 words.
As a well-known blogger in the film and television area and a loyal fan of director Mi Xiu, his speech is still very important.
Netizens were all shocked by Han Cunyang’s high evaluation. At the same time, they silently ordered movie tickets for “Jiuzhou Mountains and Seas”.
It seems that just for the special effects and pictures, the ticket price of 35 yuan is definitely not a loss.
Yao Bianliang: “…” Good for you, Han Cunyang.
Fortunately, she was still supporting this blogger in her heart at that time, silently giving him a thumbs up. As a result, this person turned his back on him as soon as he turned his head!
This is a loyal fan of Director Mi Xiu, why did he betray?
Yao Bianliang’s mood is simply ups and downs, looking at the comments from netizens, she is not well now.
Not daring to slack off, she immediately searched for relevant information.
Under the comment section of “Jiuzhou Mountains and Seas”, there are almost all five-star reviews. Not only that, but many viewers spontaneously acted like their friend Amway, and even decided to do the second or third time.
[After two days, I decided to do a second brush. This movie not only has good special effects, but the plot is not boring. I really recommend it! 】
【+1, The Classic of Mountains and Seas doesn’t have a main story line. Compared with myths such as White Snake and Nezha, script creation is very difficult. It is not easy to adapt it like this. 】
[Woooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo perfect! I have always been looking forward to our country’s excellent IP adaptation of Shan Hai Jing. I didn’t expect that someone would actually make this film, and it completely exceeded my expectations. 】
[Nothing else is important, the main thing is that there are so many beasts on display! I have already fallen in love with so many beautiful beasts. 】
[Kneeling for the official release of related IP games, the special effects and modeling are all ready-made. As long as you dare to do it, I will buy it! 】
Han Cunyang is a typical example, but definitely not an exception.
There are not a few audiences like him who were not interested in this movie before, but it was really fragrant after watching it.
Even, these remarks have directly affected the box office of “Abyss”.
[One thing to say, the “big scene” of “The Abyss” is simply incomparable with our domestic film. 】
[It’s completely different from cloud and mud. The same is water, “The Great Abyss” is fighting on the sea, and the flood of “Jiuzhou Mountains and Seas” directly engulfed the entire world. 】
[After watching the movie, I just want to say something awesome. Domestic blockbusters finally stood up! 】
[With the appearance of the abyss in the deep sea, how dare you sell the fare for seventy or eighty? Although the special effects are good, but this level of special effects is not enough to make me ignore the plot. 】
[Woooooo why don’t you shoot more “Jiuzhou Mountains and Seas”! Three hours is not enough. The images of many mythical beasts were obviously perfect, but they disappeared after only two or three appearances. My heart is bleeding. 】
Some people even built high-rise buildings in the comment area. Everyone had a heated discussion and advocated that theaters delay the release time of “Jiuzhou Mountains and Seas”.
Such a movie is simply a visual feast, and many people plan to find some time to watch it again.
Some people even think that “Jiuzhou Mountains and Seas” has opened up a new field for China’s mythological films, and it is a milestone work.
Yao Bianliang: “…”
Yao Bianliang watched everyone’s comments silently, feeling extremely complicated.
Everything was fine a few days ago.
It didn’t take long, why did the wind direction suddenly change 180 degrees?
According to this posture, after the public opinion is fermented, the popularity of “Jiuzhou Shanhai Ji” will rise wildly.
If it wasn’t for the fact that there was still a guarantee for a movie, Yao Bianliang felt that his current mentality would explode.
“Forget it…” Yao Bianliang put down the phone melancholy.
Sure enough, she still thinks too beautifully.
Facts have proved that even if the opponent is replaced by a Hollywood blockbuster, it is still powerless.
I don’t know what level the box office of “Jiuzhou Mountains and Seas” will eventually rise to…
———
Qianhua Cinema.
Manager Huang looked at the latest data report, and his whole body fell into a strong shock.
“The attendance rate of Jiuzhou Shanhaiji is so high?”
Obviously, the film schedule rate is far lower than that of “The Abyss”, but it has the ability to overwhelm the other party and get a very high attendance rate and box office.
Not only that, there are more and more Amway about “Jiuzhou Mountains and Seas” on the Internet, and most of the audience have given extremely high evaluations.
On the other hand, “The Abyss” drove high and low. At first, some fans of director Mi Xiu were touting it, but as the number of viewers grew, different voices gradually appeared in the comment area.
The plot line cannot withstand scrutiny, and the special effects are good but the plot cannot be ignored. This is what makes everyone dissatisfied.
In fact, if it wasn’t for encountering “Jiuzhou Shanhaiji”, there might not be so many negative voices about “Abyss”.
But as the saying goes, there is no harm without comparison.
Compared with “Jiuzhou Mountains and Seas”, this Hollywood blockbuster is really not enough to watch!
In terms of plot, the plot cannot withstand scrutiny; in terms of special effects, it is even beaten by Jiuzhou Shanhaiji.
If it’s just like this, that’s all. The key problem is that the ticket price of this movie is still very expensive.
A ticket for “Abyss of the Deep Sea” is 70 or 80 yuan, while “Jiuzhou Mountain and Sea Chronicle”, which is far superior in quality, costs only 30 yuan.
With such a comparison, no one wants to be taken advantage of.
Instead of watching a high-quality domestic movie, go to a popcorn movie that costs twice the price and is of mediocre quality. Normal people would not do this.
As a result, the attendance rate of “Jiuzhou Mountains and Seas” is getting higher and higher, and the box office growth has also begun to rise wildly. If it had the same screening rate as “Abyss”, the box office would probably have overtaken it long ago.
Faced with this situation, how could the major theaters sit still.
“I said a long time ago that Yao Bianliang’s movie is definitely worthy of the highest ranking.” Manager Cao folded his hands on his chest and took a sip of tea leisurely.
At the beginning, everyone focused their attention on “The Giant Eye of the Deep Sea”, ignoring the domestic film starring Yao Bianliang. He was the only one who made an opinion and was rejected in the end.
However, times have changed, and facts have proved that “Jiuzhou Mountains and Seas” is the work that can bring the most profit to their theaters.
Manager Huang was a little embarrassed: “Oh, who would have thought that there would be a dark horse on the way…”
After all, “The Abyss” directed by Mi Xiu had marketing in the early stage, and fans supported it after it was released. It can be said that it was hotly discussed on the Internet.
Yao Bianliang doesn’t show off her mountains and doesn’t show her water, and the movie has never been promoted. Who would have thought that her movie would get such a good result.
Thinking of this, Manager Huang felt rather distressed.
Money, how much money will their theater have to lose if they make a mistake in film scheduling!
If they had listened to Manager Cao’s opinion, had reacted earlier, and arranged enough filming for “Jiuzhou Mountain and Sea Chronicle” in the first two days, then they would be the only one in Qianhua Cinema.
Other theaters don’t have many film schedules. As long as they have a lot of film schedules, audiences will come to their theaters, and the profits will skyrocket?
“Forget it, it’s not too late to increase the filming rate now,” Manager Huang murmured, and then turned to Manager Cao, “Brother, what do you think is more appropriate for us to increase the filming rate?”
With the previous lessons learned, he decided to listen to Manager Cao’s opinion more.
Manager Cao thought for a while: “Let’s raise it to 40% first? If the box office is satisfactory, then adjust it to 50%—or even higher.”
In the past two days, the screening rate of “Jiuzhou Mountains and Seas” has risen from 12% to 20%, and now, Manager Cao plans to directly double the screening rate.
This is undoubtedly a bold move.
However, thinking of the recent discussions on the Internet and the attendance rate of the movie, Manager Huang gritted his teeth and nodded.
“Okay, that’s it!”
Don’t want the child to be caught by the wolf, give it a go, and turn the bicycle into a motorcycle.
…
The increase in the filming rate of “Jiuzhou Mountains and Seas” naturally lowers the number of filmings for other films.
Among them, the first to bear the brunt is “The Abyss”.
In just a few days, this big Hollywood movie finally suffered Waterloo in the Huaguo market.
The film schedule has been declining from 45% at the beginning, and now it has completely fallen to the bottom.
To be honest, this movie is just a money-making work after all. Compared with the first work of this series, the production of “The Abyss” is not too hard. It is eating its own money in all aspects, trying to continue to make money with the reputation accumulated in the early stage.
It is not wronged to encounter Waterloo.
At the same time, there are more and more discussions about “Jiuzhou Mountains and Seas”. The word “Yao Bianliang” finally entered the public’s attention with a strong attitude after five years.
【Yao Bianliang…It’s actually her! The heroine of “A Sigh of a Floating Life”. 】
[She also acted in “Spring Revlon”, I watched it many times. 】
[No wonder it sounds so familiar, isn’t this the boss of Hudi Entertainment Studio? Yang Gu’an, Shi Shan, and Wen Xuan, who are just now popular, are all the stars of this studio. 】
[Wuwuwu Liangliang has finally returned to the entertainment circle, and brought such a good work. All the waiting was worth it! 】
【Haha, it’s only been five years, but it feels so far away. Unexpectedly, she came back and brought back such a powerful masterpiece. 】
This time, Yao Bianliang’s popularity soared again. Together with “Jiuzhou Mountains and Seas”, she almost wiped out the headlines of every major page.
After five years, she once again became a popular star among the people.
———
Seaside, restaurant.
Mo Youqian sat sadly at the dining table with a heavy heart.
The box office of “Jiuzhou Mountains and Seas” has been counterattacking all the way. Just yesterday, it even reached a single-day box office of over 500 million. This is simply a knife in his heart.
The total investment is only 2 billion, and now the box office is 400-500 million a day. Before the movie is released, it is not impossible for the box office to exceed 6 billion.
However, this movie can not only rely on domestic box office to make money. According to this posture, it will be a matter of time before the film sells overseas copyrights.
In addition, there are various exquisite animal models inside, and fantasy scenes are ready-made. If it is adapted into a game, it will definitely make more profits.
Calculated in this way, not only can he not lose money on his investment, but it is even possible to double it.
So after these few days, Mo Youqian didn’t even have the appetite to eat, and his whole body was filled with a faint sense of melancholy.
“Jiuzhou Mountains and Seas” will definitely be popular, and he has already prepared for this matter. However, even if the movie hits, it may not necessarily make money back.
After all, the upfront investment for this film is too high. As for the box office profits, a large part needs to be used to pay taxes and distribute to theaters, and the rest of the money can be shared by producers and distributors.
Therefore, the box office must reach at least 6 billion, and this movie with an investment of 2 billion can make money for investors like them.
And now it seems…
The domestic box office of this movie may exceed 6 billion, not to mention that it can be released overseas and IP adaptation.
This is sure to make a lot of money.
Mo Youqian really couldn’t figure out why things had developed to this point.
“Don’t be sad, this scallop is delicious, you can try it.” Yao Bianliang comforted him, while picking a piece of scallop for himself, he ate it with relish.
She said: “Think of the good, you haven’t earned back the money you invested in Hudi Entertainment.”
Hudi Entertainment needs a huge amount of capital in the early stage, and billions of dollars will be spent without blinking an eye.
Judging from the current situation, although Hudi Entertainment has turned losses into profits, it still takes a long time to earn back the previous investment.
Mo Youqian sighed sadly: “That’s only temporary. The money will be earned back sooner or later.”
Who would have thought that before he knew it, he would have become a person worth hundreds of billions.
The dishes of the five-star restaurant are very delicate, including lobster, scallops, and sea cucumbers, and there is also king crab carefully prepared by the chef in the middle. But at this time he had no appetite at all.
The sea breeze blows in from the window, the sunshine is mild, with a unique atmosphere of holiday.
Yao Bianliang’s appetite was not affected by his mood. After eating the scallops, his target fell on the lobsters.
While peeling the lobster for her, Mo Youqian looked at her eating with gusto, and couldn’t help but ask, “Why do you look in a good mood?”
It stands to reason that “Jiuzhou Shanhai Ji” exploded, shouldn’t she be very sad?
Before he and Yao Bianliang came out for dinner, Mo Youqian was ready to cuddle with her and cry.
As a result, he seems to be the only one who is sad now, and Yao Bianliang doesn’t seem to be affected at all.
Is it possible…
Mo Youqian seemed to have thought of something, and looked at Yao Bianliang with complicated eyes: “You…don’t plan to become cold?”
After a long time, was he finally abandoned by the only revolutionary comrade in the world?
Yao Bianliang shook his finger.
“Of course not,” she smiled, and the corners of her lips curled up. “The main reason is that I didn’t put all my eggs in the same basket.”
“Jiuzhou Mountains and Seas” is really popular, but at the same time, her other movie has quietly cooled down.
That absurd sci-fi movie that everyone has forgotten—
“The Invisible Artist”
