my time as a director

"When he came back to see his daughter and wife, she said, you look really young, but he said, it's just your appearance. I feel so sad seeing this!"

"I don't know why I'm crying. This is the first time I've cried in a movie for a long time. Tears flowed down when I saw his daughter read the letter he wrote to her."

"I wanted to cry when the old man laughed and talked about his experience of being struck by lightning seven times. I thought I was unlucky, but I found that I was lucky."

"He has been crying since he and she had a baby in the second half, and the tears are rushing, which makes my stomach hurt!"

"I don't know why, but I just want to cry, condense little by little, until finally it explodes!"

In any case, moving has always been the first feeling of most audiences about "Rejuvenation", and it is also the most talked about.

The word-of-mouth exploded and the box office exploded. "Rejuvenation" just went smoothly, and ended its first weekend of screenings without any resistance.

Yesterday, that is, Sunday, when the next day was a working day, the drop in the box office was minimal, and it still got a super high box office of 201 billion, breaking [-] million for two consecutive days.

And four days after the first weekend of its release, the total box office of "Rejuvenation" has reached 733 billion!

[-] million in four days in the first weekend, which is also a new record for opening a painting.

As for the other films of the same period, the previous "A Coquettish Woman Is the Best Life" and "Once Upon a Time: A Hero Has Dreams" were completely swept aside by "Rejuvenation".

Even if the duration of "Rejuvenation" is too long, it is not cost-effective for the cinema, and if it is replaced with other movies, it can be scheduled for one and a half more games a day, but due to the huge gap in attendance, it is also ignored by the cinema.

After the first weekend, with the box office, popularity and word-of-mouth, no one in the industry doubts whether "Rejuvenation" can surpass "Transformers 4"'s 1997 billion and become the first movie in the mainland to break the 20 billion box office.

20 billion, there were only four movies with a box office of 20 billion, and the [-] billion came out, and the entire industry was deeply moved.

It's even a bit embarrassing for other big directors in the industry.

Others are about to break 20 billion. You successful directors haven't even reached the billion mark.

Zhang Yimou, who is preparing for the filming of "The Great Wall", was also stimulated by the 20 billion box office. It's not that he pursued the box office more, but as the one who opened the era of commercial films in the mainland, he is so far behind a junior. I am really ashamed.

It just so happened that the Hollywood studio wanted to make a purely commercial film, and it was a commercial theme. Zhang Yimou also made up his mind to make this super blockbuster with an investment of nearly one billion into a commercial production.

Zhou Xingchi, who is far away in Xiangjiang, is quietly writing the sequel script of "The Truman Show", and is also paying attention to the mainland film market.

His own "Journey to the West: Conquering the Demons" has just broken one billion in less than two years, and it was immediately raised to a higher level, and the box office ceiling was raised to 20 billion in a blink of an eye.

However, Zhou Xingchi is very confident in his own ideas and scripts, not to mention that this is also a microcosm of himself. Once upon a time, he also hoped to fade away all the aura and return to the young and happy A Xing back then.

But, after all, there is no going back!

Zhou Xingchi shook his head, lowered his head and continued writing the script.

In Shanghai, Xu Zheng, who is conceiving the sequel of "Lost in Thailand", is envious of the explosive box office of "Rejuvenation".

Mi Lijian on the other side of the ocean, and Guo Fan, who was watching the special effects production process at the North American headquarters of Digital Domain, were full of excitement and excitement.

No matter how long the three-year period is, Guo Fan's days of studying in Hollywood are coming to an end, and he is about to return to China to show off his skills and shoot the first domestically produced sci-fi blockbuster.

Originally such a huge investment, Guo Fan still had a little heart, but now the ceiling of the mainland market is about to be raised by Li Qian to more than 20 billion, and the cost he can bear is even higher.

The major directors are all excited, excited, lost, and also very nervous. Jiang Wen and Wu Yusen, who are about to release a movie, are very nervous.

Jiang Wen was fine. Although Wu Yusen was very confident in his film, he was still very upset when he saw the box office hit of "Rejuvenation".

There are still three days before the release of "The Wheel of Peace", and Wu Yusen is constantly running around to promote the film.

As an opponent in the same period, Wu Yusen will inevitably be asked whether he has confidence in facing such a strong opponent in "Rejuvenation".

"Of course, for the movie "Taiping Wheel", I prepared four or five years back and forth, meticulously crafted, just to satisfy the audience.

This story takes place in a grand war at the turning point of the times. The complex human nature reflected in the war is not just a simple shipwreck in "Titanic".

When the tragedy of "Taiping Ship" happened, Huaguo was experiencing the biggest change in hundreds of years. Everyone was worried and uncertain about the way forward. No one was in the mood to care about the thousands of lives on this overloaded ship. The disaster was nothing but A small bubble in a pot of boiling water, which disappears in an instant.

The insignificance of personal destiny in this troubled world, whether it is a general or a soldier, a doctor or a prostitute, everyone is involuntarily pushed by the world, running counter to their own goals.”

According to the usual practice, Wu Yusen boasted a lot about himself, and compared to the previous promotion of "Titanic" in the East, he simply said that "Taiping Wheel" has more depth than "Titanic".

There is no way, the audience of Oriental "Titanic" seems not very interested, so we can only promote it boldly.

Then the host asked about the many war scenes in "Rejuvenation", and the same is true for "Taiping Wheel".

Over the past few days, he has been asked how to comment on "Rejuvenation", Wu Yusen is also a little disgusted, and he is very unhappy with Li Qian, and this time he is an opponent, so he simply stopped talking about the scene.

He smiled slightly and said, ""The Wheel of Peace" invited the world's top special effects team to shoot the war scenes. I can say that in terms of war scenes, it is absolutely world-class. At present, there is still a gap in domestic war scenes."

There is a gap in civil war dramas, and "Taiping Wheel" is world-class, which is short of directly saying that you are all rubbish, and labor and capital are the strongest.

The host's eyes lit up. Isn't this what they want to see on the show, so they continued to ask.

Wu Yusen continued, "Actually, I've also watched "Rejuvenation". It's very different from the Beibai war in my impression, especially the three confrontations between the two armies. You come and go. For the first time, the Zhiyuan army won. Immediately afterwards, the Mi Army won for the second time, and the Zhiyuan Army won again for the third time. It seemed that it was a contest between two evenly matched opponents, but in fact the Zhiyuan Army was far weaker than the Mi Army.

Moreover, the strength of the Zhiyuan Army is not expressed in the movie, and this point of view cannot be supported. Except for the sniper played by Zhang Yi, among a group of ordinary soldiers, there is no particularly powerful one.

I can't find any place to support it, and I have read a memoir of the Mi Army. In it, a Mi Army soldier recalled that when the war broke out, there were always countless Zhiyuan troops everywhere. Soldiers, this is the biggest advantage of the Zhiyuan Army. The tactics of the sea of ​​​​people do not count sacrifices to overwhelm the opponent.

A miracle of defeating the strong by the weak and relying on countless sacrifices is portrayed by the movie as a war between two opponents of the same level. In fact, this is unnecessary. We should respect history and not only care about our inner vanity. "

Wu Yusen's interview was immediately posted on the Internet intact, both text and video, and it also attracted the attention of many movie fans.

Although he has been silent for the past few years, he was still a great international director back then, a director who directed A-level major productions.

Coupled with those classic movies of the [-]s, Wu Yusen's reputation is easily ranked in the top ten in the circle of Chinese-language directors, and he is also a very well-known director by the public.

And in the news of the media, it became "Wu Yusen criticized Li Qian for his modesty and love for women, war dramas do not respect history." and the like.

Of course Li Qian also saw it, and I don't know where Wu Yusen got the confidence to talk about war scenes. He knows a hammer war, and the war scenes in "Taiping Wheel" are filmed like shit.

Chapter 479 Young people are unreasonable

These days, apart from some major events in entertainment news, the most eye-catching thing is undoubtedly the conflict between celebrities.

Every time there is a conflict between celebrities, even if it is just speculation, it can make the excitement last for a while.

Undoubtedly, the media is most eager to see celebrities choke each other. When "Little Times 3" and "Afternoon" were released during the summer vacation, the media created conflicts between old enemies Guo Jinming and Han Han all the time.

Wu Yusen said something bad about "Rejuvenation", and the media immediately moved out like sharks smelling blood.

Ever since, the news has become like this:

"Wu Yusen's new work "The Wheel of Peace" created the strongest war drama in China, and denounced Li Qian for fabricating history: the war drama in "Rejuvenation" is pure fantasy!"

In fact, regarding the war scene in Rejuvenation against Mi and Aid Korea, there have been audience discussions in the past four days, but the proportion is not much, and there is no excessive ugliness or beautification of any party, so there are not many people discussing it.

But as soon as Wu Yusen's words came out, he bluntly said that Li Qian was blind to Jill's filming, which made this topic hot.
