muscle actor

Chapter 177

In the blink of an eye, at the end of September, I followed Xu Yinghua all over the country to promote the upcoming Blizzard, and returned to the capital, tomorrow is the premiere.

"Are you nervous?" Ding Cheng looked at Xu Yinghua and joked, "Miss, get on the sedan chair for a while?"

"Bullshit!" Xu Yinghua scolded, "I've made three movies, okay?"

Seeing Ding Cheng's questioning face, he faltered and said: "It's just that no one has seen it!"

Everyone laughed, Liu Yingjian and the others were all there. After the running-in of Shadow Chasing the Murderer, a fixed team has been formed. This is the second work.

"After all, it's a movie, it's different from a TV series." Xu Yinghua took a sip of wine and sighed: "Outsiders don't know the way, and think they are all filmed in front of the camera, but in fact, the interlacing is like a mountain!"

"Compressing dozens or hundreds of hours of plot into a hundred minutes, making it both beautiful and logical, it's simply..."

Ding Cheng smiled and said nothing. If it is not difficult, why is the movie called a work of art that will last forever?

Any student of a film school can casually name more than a dozen master-level works, no matter what genre, no matter what nationality, shocking art knows no borders.

Liu Yingjian patted Xu Yinghua on the shoulder and said confidently: "Don't worry, I can guarantee with my head that our box office will not be bad!"

Others also patted their chests in various ways. Xu Yinghua looked at Ding Cheng and asked seriously, "What do you think?"

Ding Cheng smiled brightly, and said relaxedly, "Have you ever seen me make bad movies?"

Xu Yinghua was taken aback for a moment, then remained silent for a moment, then raised her thumbs up and said, "Awesome!"

Just kidding, Ding Cheng still analyzed: "The total investment is 3000 million. According to the current market, there is not much pressure to pay back."

"In addition, it is a key project of the company's operation. Sister Hua is also pushing it with all her strength. She cooperates with Guangguang to promote and release it. It is much better than our sniper phone booth in the same period last year!"

"I love to hear that." Xu Yinghua laughed and said, "Do you know why you chose the same schedule?"

"Just for your good fortune!"

"Hey hey hey..."

Ding Cheng was very speechless, so let's stick to it, it's all his own work, it doesn't matter.

Last year, Sniper Phone Booth made more than 3 million, and he also took the lead. This time, both the publicity and the lineup are much better, so there should be no big problem.

Xu Yinghua looked at Ding Cheng, but didn't say a word.

If this upcoming blizzard really has the same box office as Sniper Phone Booth, that means...

Ding Cheng is definitely the box office actor who can stand alone!

Starting from the golden horse actor of the bullfight, then the sniper phone booth with less than 2000 million, and then the rescue of Mr. Wu with [-] million, the blizzard is coming soon...

Every movie either wins an award or sells well at the box office. This is no longer just a matter of good acting skills.

27 years old, double best actor, the box office of his participation exceeds 50 billion!

Xu Wenzheng, Li Chengjie, Guan Hu, Ding Sheng...

Each of them is a hot director, and after each cooperation, they are full of praise, and the good word of mouth has spread throughout the circle.

If it weren't for this kid picking the script,
I can't finish the work even if I'm exhausted!

The most amazing thing is to get on the big ship of Cheng Daoming, who is the chairman of the Film Association, and he is treated at the deputy ministerial level.

Good guy, as long as you don't risk your life, your future is brighter than diamonds.

Patting my conscience, one of the things I am most proud of in my life is:

Meet Ding Cheng!

Finally, we arrived at the midnight screening. Following the old rules, we sneaked into the theater with our two girls and put on makeup.

There were no empty seats, and as the movie started, the whole atmosphere was mobilized, the plot continued to advance, and discussions sounded from time to time.

"Ding Cheng really acts like what he looks like, he's amazing!"

"Nonsense, he is a double actor, and he can play with Liu Tianwang so fiercely."

"Although she's not as tall as Xiao Xianrou, her acting skills are nothing to say, I'm a fan!"

"This is what you call a good actor!"

Su Yao listened to the discussion of the people next to her and showed a gratified smile. No matter what she said, Ding Cheng's acting skills did not drop.

As a personal assistant, of course I hope that each work will be a hit at the box office, but what I am most concerned about is Ding Cheng's acting skills. Has there been a breakthrough?

Did it catch the audience's eyes?
Can it resonate more?
The works are not only watched by the audience, many directors and investors are researching, especially the director, every role comes out, and the possibility of an actor's future can be seen.

This is also where Ding Cheng is smart.

There are never restrictions on the way of acting, no matter the decent or the villain, dare to act, especially the villain, many people even think it is more brilliant.

Of course, veteran cadres prefer scripts with strong logic. The more complex the characters are, the more challenging they are. Whether it is sniping a phone booth or the current blizzard is approaching, it is all a small cost, and it all depends on the plot and acting skills.

……

Netizens are fooling: Blizzard is coming is definitely not a simple suspense film, especially Ding Cheng's acting skills are as explosive as ever.

There are two designs that left a deep impression on me: one is the model worker scene, his face is trembling constantly, effectively conveying a sense of suffocation from overexcitement.

The other is that the leather jacket is constantly pulled throughout the film. This small detail is really too similar to my dad in his 90s in the 30s.

……

Netizen Baibai: This film is a rare film with a domestic structure. It seems to be about murder suspicion, but it is actually about the dream of the times.

The heavy rain from the beginning to the end represents that era, implying that the protagonist cannot get out of the small county town in the haze, nor can he see the real world outside the factory.

For such an elegy of the times, the director did not use the literati's perspective of God to remember the past, nor did he have hypocritical care at the bottom, which is really commendable.

……

Netizen Lalong Zaitian: Ding Cheng, a real actor, can only show his charm on stage in front of the camera.

Although the appearance is not handsome, but as long as the spotlight shines on him, the whole person will immediately shine brightly, and the powerful aura will crush the audience.

Especially in the tracking scene, the criminal, Yu Guowei's master and apprentice, and the three climbed, shuttled, and chased in the steelmaking workshop with a huge steel frame structure.

There was the sound of rushing rain, dense footsteps, the whistle of the small train in the factory, and the roar of production in the workshop.Against the empty background, the lives of the three people seem so insignificant.

This situation is also a profile of Yu Guowei's life, only he cares about what he cares about, and only he cares about what he cherishes.

In front of the times, he is just a weak person.Whether he was single or later became a laid-off worker, he was powerless to change it.Only by tenaciously and almost paranoidly following the clues of the murder, can I feel that I am living like a human being!

……

Netizen movie fans: Many people may classify this movie as a crime genre, obsessed with investigating the real murderer. In fact, I prefer to classify it as a realistic movie, because it records the dark times of an era and accurately grasps the 90s The survival anxiety of Chinese people.

For example, the black humor of "The Piano"... the misty sadness of "24 Cities"... and the gloomy, sad and humid atmosphere of "The Blizzard Is Coming" fills every corner.

Some people say that the director deliberately imitated Memories of Murder?
If "Memories of Murder" reveals the difficult struggle between South Korean individuals and the system in the 80s, then "Blizzard is Coming" reflects the anxiety of the masses brought about by the reform and opening up in the 90s, hitting the collective pain points of all parents.

If "Village Play" is a heavy reflection on the collectivism and individual demands of the 70s, then the plight of collective survival in the 90s shown in "Blizzard is Coming" is more like a besieged city.

The cage of the system strangles every Chinese at the bottom, and there is nowhere to escape, inside or outside the system.

……

Netizen jijiwaiwai: Ding Cheng deserves to be a double actor, a few scenes are enough to prove his strength, such as accepting awards on stage, giving acceptance speeches, that kind of small pride, the vanity of a small person.

Ten years later, when he was released from prison to apply for a new ID card, the timidity of shattered dreams and the oppression of ten years in prison were all written on his face...

Only these few micro-expressions show the profound performance skills, non-stop lighting cigarettes, smoking silently, thinking, I have to say that he really has a very unique temperament, giving a movie character a fresh life.

……

Netizens are waiting for you every day: The last 10 minutes after Yu Guowei was released from prison supported the entire film. The most profound scene was when Yu took out his ID card while waiting for the bus, but he couldn't see his name clearly.

The first reaction is that my glasses prescription has deepened again?It was only later that he realized that Yu Guowei was just a superfluous person abandoned by the times, and his name was naturally not important.

The second is the scene of the factory blasting, like a blizzard, cold and ruthless.The camera sweeps across the laid-off workers, and the group portraits in the camera are expressionless and have nowhere to go.

Thanks to the director for remembering such a group of people, who are not evil, have a little cleverness, but also have a positive heart, work hard, and love their families.Laid off and unemployed, I lost my job, and I also lost my former self.

……

The box office on the first day was 500 million,
Douban 7.8 points!
Everyone takes a sigh of relief, and the return is stable, so it depends on how much you can earn?

4000 million the next day,

Fifty-four million on the third day,

Thirty-eight million on the fourth day,

Forty-one million on the fifth day...

Until the release of several blockbuster films on National Day, Blizzard's box office will exceed 5000 million. With fewer and fewer films scheduled, it will finally lock in [-] million!

Fully eight times the return on investment!
