Life in the Light and Shadow of Chinese Entertainment

Chapter 0019 Two Tigers Fight and Eat the Sheep

In fact, domestic audiences are the most tolerant audiences in the world, as long as they are not forced to eat shit.

The film is not didactic and tells the story clearly without being deliberately mysterious or filled with metaphors.

They'll go see any movie that interests them when it's released.

They are generous with their praise for any good movie and are happy to share it with friends and family.

If Wu Yang copied the answers in advance and still made mistakes, then he would be doing a disservice to his identity as a transmigrator!

The film grossed over 2 million yuan in just two days and received rave reviews both online and offline. However, on the Yangdou website, a site known for its sarcastic and sarcastic comments, many negative remarks appeared.

There are also many mindless 1-star reviews, causing the overall rating to remain around 7 points.

However, the box office results and the ever-rising curve have not changed with this Shepherd website.

If everyone thinks it's good, then it's truly good!

The Chinese people are generally introverted due to their education and traditional culture; they enjoy watching the excitement but dislike expressing their opinions.

Except for a small minority who like to talk big online and act as keyboard warriors.

Two days after the movie's release, apart from those with ulterior motives who were quick to criticize, most netizens who had seen it gave positive reviews.

On Sunday, however, the movie "2012," which had been touting the end of the world, was released and occupied 40% of the screenings on its first day.

This resulted in the screening rate of "First Love" being halved, reaching only 40%.

The remaining films occupy the remaining 20% ​​of the screenings.

The pseudo-3D blockbuster "2012" created a huge movie-going frenzy, which also boosted the box office of "First Love" and directly absorbed the box office of other movies.

In the following period, even on weekdays, the box office champions were still these two films alternating, with daily total box office exceeding 4000 million.

The rest of the movies died without a trace!

It's like two tigers fighting, and the sheep that were just watching the show got eaten up!

Once it's the weekend, the box office for these two movies will immediately rise against the trend!

After 10 days in theaters, "A Little Thing Called First Love" has grossed over 3 million yuan!

"2012" grossed over 2.8 million yuan in just 8 days!

Media outlets widely predict that both "First Love" and "2012" are likely to surpass 5 million yuan in total box office revenue.

Breaking domestic box office records, the film also compared and analyzed Wu Yang's past film achievements with Roland Emmerich's.

It attracted the attention of many viewers and brought them huge economic benefits and fame.

When a film becomes a box office hit, they start praising it, analyzing it, and criticizing it.

If the film flops at the box office, people join the audience in criticizing it—criticizing the director, the actors, the script…

If we're talking about the most unscrupulous group in the domestic film and television industry, then entertainment reporters are definitely at the top of the list!

They dare to claim second place, and no other group dares to claim first!

Only an iron fist could shut them up a little, but it still couldn't stop their sarcastic and veiled sarcasm.

This is a bunch of real scoundrels. So, after Wu Yang transmigrated, from the moment he stepped into the entertainment industry, he refused to be interviewed.

But I never offended them during our meetings, and even when faced with their deliberate attempts to make things difficult, I would just joke around and get away with it.

Even if you don't offend them, they'll still smear you for traffic or fame and fortune, let alone if you do offend them!

Even a big-name actor like Wang Zhiwen almost ruined his reputation by offending them.

Don't be fooled by his nonchalant demeanor; he's just putting on a brave face!

Anyone who enters the entertainment industry doesn't want a constant stream of acting offers and doesn't want to become famous.

Whether or not to accept a role is a personal choice, while having roles reflects popularity and value.

The Chinese are known for their low-key approach, preferring to make money quietly and discreetly. Even when they make money, they believe in keeping it hidden.

Looking around at my relatives and friends, apart from the nouveau riche who got rich from land relocation and coal bosses, who would actively announce that they have made a fortune?

When asked about business, everyone says it's tough, that they've lost a lot of money, or that they're not making any money at all.

Even colleagues in the same workplace would tacitly allow the concealment of wages.

No one will proactively tell you how much money they've made this year, but someone will proactively tell you that this business is profitable.

Then you need to be careful. This kind of person is either a scammer trying to take advantage of you, or someone who is secretly planning to do something bad to you.

Americans tend to be more flamboyant the wealthier they are, while Chinese people tend to be more low-key the wealthier they are.

The former is afraid of being ripped off by shady sellers offering freebies, while the latter is afraid of being taken advantage of!

Different national conditions require different methods and strategies for doing things.

When Wu Yang was in the US, he witnessed Leonardo DiCaprio angrily confronting entertainment reporters. The audience there had a low level of education and didn't read newspapers much, so not many people believed the entertainment reporters' reports, whether good or bad.

The Chinese people believe that all other pursuits are inferior, only studying is noble!

Then reading newspapers becomes the main source of information for relevant departments and social groups.

Entertainment reporters' reports are not published separately, but rather along with the day's news, published by their respective newspapers.

Once these people distort the truth and call a deer a horse, they create a powerful and influential public opinion environment.

Anyone who is attacked, even if they are innocent, can be misled by those with ulterior motives.

In particular, many people still foolishly believe in the absurd theory that flies don't land on eggs without cracks, and why they only criticize you instead of others.

Many brilliant stars have been overshadowed by the prevailing opinion!

Before his time travel, Wu Yang, as a resident filmmaker and somewhat of an entertainment reporter, was well aware of their disgusting nature!

……

"The two-week extension will definitely help push the total box office past 4 million!"

"A Little Thing Called First Love" has grossed over 3.8 million yuan in 20 days since its release.

从第21到30天中的9天里,日票房从1000万出头,逐日递减到100万出头。

Now, after one month in theaters, the total box office has reached 3.96 million yuan.

Fortunately, we got a two-week extension, which is much luckier than "2012" which was shown two days later.

After 28 days of box office competition, "2012" has grossed over 3.79 million yuan in total.

Today's box office has already dropped to over 10, and with two more days left in theaters, "2012" will ultimately gross a maximum of 3.8 million.

Compared to the box office figures I remember, it's more than 8000 million yuan less.

Most of them were drawn in by "First Love," after all, it's a disaster movie with pseudo-3D effects.

It's only really impactful the first time you see it, because it's a tragedy and it's hard to get people to go to the theater a second time.

Unlike "A Little Thing Called First Love," which was filled with many Easter eggs by Wu Yang, I didn't notice them on my first viewing.

Although it doesn't affect the overall effect, it loses a lot of the fun of guessing riddles.

Some people chose to watch it two or even three times, and then share it with their relatives and friends, making it a topic of conversation over tea.

Of course, the entertainment reporters also deserve credit for such high box office numbers; it was they who made those decisions half a month ago.

They proclaimed the slogan that Chinese films should defeat Hollywood.

This has led many people who no longer frequently go to the cinema to return.
