Chapter 656
A well-known film critic on Sohu.com: "As a science fiction brain-burning film, this film is indeed novel enough that if you are an enthusiast, you will have the urge to walk out of the theater ten times in the first ten minutes. Those jumping topics, those trivial conversations, You don't even have time to remember the names of the characters before you are overwhelmed by their respective gossips and love affairs, and then you start to curse in your mind all the great people who recommended this film on the Internet, they all pretend to be 13 on me, what kind of literary art is this? Seeking death!”
"After watching it, I was naturally hooked, and strangely, in order to clear my mind, I started to watch the video a second, third, or even fourth time. Especially when I rewatched the first fifteen minutes of watching it casually, there was always something I had seen this film earlier, definitely not yesterday, let alone a week ago, but several months ago.”
“I suddenly understood when I thought that Director Wang wrote this script in Hollywood.”
"Next, let me briefly analyze the time travel from the perspective of the protagonist Sun Li."
"Everyone's conversation at the dinner table and the conversation before eating actually reveal some more important details, which are not insignificant."
"In the kitchen, Sun Li met Liu Yan, Deng Chao, and Chen Hao. At this time, the topics of conversation included comets, Sun Li's mobile phone with a broken screen, and the dried flower decorations Sun Li bought from the store."
"Then at the dinner table, the first doubt emerged. Zhao Liying's occupation and the TV series starring Deng Chao. Zhao Liying had obviously not seen the others for some time before, but they were familiar with each other, but everyone else here thought she had been a yoga practitioner. Teacher, but she claims to be working in Silicon Valley, Then Deng Chao played a major role in Zhao Liying's favorite TV series, and Zhao Liying seemed to not recognize him at all, just like she saw that Deng Chao was not in the version at all, although others also expressed surprise that Zhao Liying could not recognize Deng Chao. money, but this topic is still mentioned.”
"In fact, there is reason to suspect that Zhao Liying herself has traveled through space once and was brought to the party by Yang Wei in this space."
"The first power outage brought about the first flow of people. Jiang Wu and Yang Wei went to the only house with light. When they came back, Jiang Wu was injured, and Yang Wei brought back a box he didn't recognize. First of all, Yang Wei thought that Jiang Wu put down the box at the beginning, but Jiang Wu said that he had never touched the box. From this, the audience could confirm for the first time that there was a distortion of time and space in the film."
"Immediately after opening the box, everyone found their own photos with red numbers on the back, and a table tennis racket placed with the photos. At this time, all eight people were present and witnessed this weird box."< br>
"While everyone was discussing the route of Jiang Wu and Yang Wei and the noise incident outside the house from the main perspective, things began to take shape, that is, Jiang Wu and Yang Wei in another space may have caused the noise outside the house from the main perspective."
"The note left on the door further confirms the existence of time and space distortion."
"So four more people went to witness whether there was another self, namely Sun Li, Zhao Liying, Chen Kun, and Deng Chao. The trip of these four people allowed them to see exactly the same version of themselves. The only difference was that they took It’s a blue fluorescent stick, and the other four are red fluorescent sticks. Once this detail came out, I first returned to Jiang Wu and Yang Wei in this house exchanged glances. In fact, these two people were not the first two people to go out to find the bright house. Because these two people were holding red fluorescent sticks, they decisively brought their only knowledge and information with them. , that is, the book and photos escape, ready to find the space of their own. ”
"While the four of them were going out, Chen Hao disappeared. When the seven of them were discussing what to do with themselves in other dimensions and how to get along with each other, we knew that Chen Hao was sleeping during this period, until Deng Chao later woke Chen Hao. And bring her back to the discussion.”
"It is necessary to mention here that I have always felt that Chen Hao might be replaced while he was sleeping."
"At this time Deng Chao was about to steal the book in another dimension. He told Chen Kun and went out to act. When he came back and claimed to have been away for about 45 minutes, Chen Kun expressed surprise because in this house , the time when Deng Chao disappeared was between five and ten minutes, and time was distorted here. The time inside and outside the house was not parallel, but sequential.”
"At the same time, the incident in the room where Liu Yan was suspected of taking LSD had just been clarified and calmed down, but Sun Li noticed something incredible. Liu Yan and Chen Hao had a conversation that was exactly the same at the beginning of the film. conversation, about the small decoration of dried flowers, so Sun Li vaguely felt that she was already in another space, not the house before she left for the first time tonight."
"At this point, the other three people who came back with Sun Li, Chen Kun, Deng Chao, and Zhao Liying, have traveled through time. Among them, Zhao Liying has traveled through time for the second time."
"Then there was another power outage, followed by a suspected car smashing incident, so the people in the house decided to go and see what was going on. This time, six people left the house, Deng Chao, Chen Hao, Zhao Liying, Liu Yan, Sun Li and Chen Kun, when everyone was checking Jiang Wu's car that was smashed, Sun Li went to check her own car and took off a Wearing a ring, she met Chen Kun at the same time. After a conversation, both parties realized that they did not belong to the same space, so Sun Li returned to the house in panic and tentatively mentioned the ring in front of Chen Kun in the house. This confirms that the Chen Kun we just met by the car is really Chen Kun in another dimension.”
"Next, Jiang Wu and Yang Wei, who were suspected to be the first batch of missing people, came back with different Bundy sticks, but they were holding the same color fluorescent stick as the people in the house, so others thought it was the first time they had gone out. There are two people, but careful analysis shows that it is not necessarily the case. There are only two colors of fluorescent sticks in the house, and people in each space can choose the same color at will. , through probability calculation, the probability of choosing a blue glow stick in any two spaces is 25%, so just considering the glow stick is obviously not enough. Furthermore, Sun Li has determined that time travel has occurred when the four of them traveled. , then it will be more difficult to determine that these two people are the two missing people in the first house.”
"The subsequent verification of the time of the note proved that there are indeed multiple spaces, because there are two notes in the wrong space where Jiang Wu and Yang Wei went, and there are also two in the main space where Sun Li is, but the one who is here Jiang Wu claimed that he had never sent the note, so it was obviously the third space that posted the note to the other party’s door.”
"We all discussed marking the house together, using a sieve and randomly selected items to form a combination. When taking the box, Sun Li discovered that the box Chen Hao took out was exactly the same as the box brought back by Yang Wei who appeared for the second time."< br>
"At this time, Chen Hao himself didn't seem to notice. This may be a bit ambiguous, because according to the subsequent plot, there is a box in every space, and it is most likely the same box, so it should be regarded as the box appearing again. At this time, everyone except Sun Li should look surprised.”
"While making marks, Jiang Wu came up with the idea of additional items. Sun Li remembered the table tennis racket in the box she first saw. The strange thing was that Yang Wei didn't react at all, and neither did anyone else, as if he had forgotten I once saw a box containing table tennis rackets that looked the same as the photos. At this time, I should have thought that Sun Li met another Chen Kun alone by the car, and then the house she returned to might not be the same house she left. Everything happened. Twisted.”
"The subsequent digital verification incident verified the uneasiness that Sun Li had hidden in her heart for a long time..."
…………
As various vague and mysterious film reviews and descriptions of the film appeared on the Internet, during this May Day holiday, many netizens who had not watched "The Night the Comet Came" were intrigued.
Coupled with the constant praise and flattery, many people were tempted to buy tickets and go to the cinema.
In fact, Wang Shu had to call Director Chen a senior when it comes to controlling and commenting.
Back then, "The Promise" was released to rave reviews, until it finally became uncontrollable and the box office plummeted.
But even so, "The Promise", a film that Director Chen repeatedly said would be impossible for anyone to understand within ten years, still achieved a very high box office.
"The Night the Comet Came" directed by Wang Shu had a Douban score of 8.6 in the original timeline, but "The Promise", which had a Douban score of only 5.5, could not be compared.
The rating is 5.5, which is not even qualified.
Rated 8.6, it is an excellent film after all.
Therefore, although Yishu Company and China Film Distribution are now using some methods to control reviews, they will not be counterattacked in the end.
The truth is that gold is not afraid of fire.
Although "The Night When the Comet Came" may be described as lacking in artistic quality, its setting is very interesting and can give the audience a very novel feeling.
Youdao is about looking at novelty and weirdness. Just because of the novel setting, it is worth the price of admission.
Not to mention, although this film is only made on a small budget, it has the gimmicks of a Hollywood movie. This gimmick can make domestic audiences look good, and even if they don't understand, they will pretend to understand and brag.
After all, if Hollywood makes similar films, why can European and American audiences understand them? !
Now that Wang Shu is making this kind of film in China, if the domestic audience can't understand it, wouldn't he look more stupid than Europeans and Americans?
This is not possible!
Because of such sentiments, many groups suddenly appeared who did not understand but pretended to understand and boasted about "The Night the Comet Came".
Also, boasting about "The Night the Comet Came" can show from the side that domestic films are no worse than Hollywood films, which makes many people feel proud in their hearts.
So much so that many groups who have not watched "The Night the Comet Came" are also bragging about this film...
……
On May 3, "The Night the Comet Came" had a box office of 52.1 million.
May 4, 5246W.
May 5, 5008W.
May 6, 4936W.
May 7, 4137W.

On May 7th, the Hollywood blockbuster Marvel superhero movie "Iron Man 2" was released in mainland theaters.
The box office of "The Night the Comet Came" was affected and began to shrink.
This situation is inevitable.
After all, "The Night the Comet Came" is a film that requires brains to understand. At first, it relied on various gimmicks, publicity, and Wang Shu's reputation to achieve a high box office.
When this wave of heat passes, it will eventually dissipate.
The emergence of "Iron Man 2" has only accelerated the pace.
For most viewers, they prefer to watch a popcorn blockbuster like "Iron Man 2" that requires no brain, rather than a brain-burning movie that requires a brain like "The Night the Comet Came."
Of course, "The Night the Comet Came" was only influenced by "Iron Man 2", which does not mean that it will fail.
In the original timeline, "Inception" directed by Nolan and starring Leonardo DiCaprio was released in China on September 1, 2010, with a box office of 456 million.
Although Nolan is a major international director and Leonardo DiCaprio is famous in China for "Titanic", "Inception" is after all a foreign language film.
Even foreign language films such as "Inception" achieved a box office of 456 million in domestic theaters in 2010. There is no reason that the domestic film "The Night the Comet Came", which is full of gimmicks, only stopped at a box office of 300 to 400 million.
In fact, Wang Shu had thought about moving the movie "Inception" before, but later realized that it was simply not feasible, so he gave up.
It wasn't feasible, not because he couldn't take the photo, but because there was another reason.
Although the filming of "Inception" started in July 2009, Nolan had already had the idea for this story when he was 16 years old.
When Nolan started filming the movie in 2009, he made it clear in an interview with reporters that he had written the first draft of the script seven or eight years ago, and that it could go back even further, to when he was 16 .
This shows that the first draft script of "Inception" already existed around 2001.
And as Nolan polishes the script, the script of "Inception" is becoming more and more mature.
Therefore, if Wang Shu puts "Inception" on the big screen, Nolan looked at the script in his hand and expressed doubts: "Brother, where did your script come from? How come it is exactly the same as the script in my hand?"< br>
Therefore, if "Inception" is put on the big screen after 2000, it will directly collide with the script in Nolan's hands and is simply not feasible.
When the time comes, fun is indispensable.
Moreover, the investment in "Inception" is as high as 160 million US dollars.
If it were in China in 2000, even if the budget was cut in half and the budget of 80 million US dollars was invested in the production of "Inception", the domestic box office in 2000 exceeded 100 million yuan and the market was booming, and the cost would not be recovered at all.
In this case, there will definitely not be anyone who takes advantage of the situation and invests money in making this movie.
If you want to take advantage of the fact that Nolan has not finished the script of "Inception" and make the film before 2000, you have to go to Hollywood.
Only when Hollywood faces the global market can it be possible to recover its costs and even make some profit.
Beyond that, it's simply not feasible.
It's not that Wang Shu doesn't want to make this classic, but that he simply can't catch up!
