For Lin Xing, he didn't think that "Fallen Leaves" was a failure.
Because Lin Xing read it very clearly from beginning to end.
This time, "Fallen Leaves" ended the May Day stage with 530 million yuan. Do you think it's too much?
It's really not many.
But other movies are even worse, even the two movies "Rescue on the Wire" and "Crazy Lottery" are almost interesting.
"Rescue on the Line" has a compact plot and good special effects, but the script is obviously problematic, and there is no big climax as a whole.
It seems that I have been saving people, but it makes people feel a little frustrated.
Yes.
It's just a frustration, and the protagonist also sacrificed for no reason, as if it was just for the sake of sacrifice.
Because of this, "Fireline Rescue" has snatched some of the audiences of "Fallen Leaves", but that's all.
As for "Crazy Lottery", let alone, what else can I say about this bad movie? ?
In this case, with the contour of peers, it is actually not surprising that "Fallen Leaves" won the May Day stage.
Of course, the reason why many people say "Fallen Leaves" is because they compare with Lin Xing's previous ones.
A media reporter even asked Lin Xing: "Are you really not disappointed at all?"
"No, why am I disappointed?"
Lin Xing was a little puzzled: "I didn't talk about the box office from the beginning, nor did I say how many billions of the box office would be? "
"But "Charlotte's Troubles" is almost 11 billion, but this "Fallen Leaves" is only more than 500 million. Don't you feel the big gap at all?"
The media reporter obviously didn't give up and continued to ask.
In response to this, Lin Xing smiled and said, "Is this saying that every movie I make in the future, I have to make 10 billion yuan? If it is less than 10 billion, I have to be disappointed? Besides, box office is often not allowed to judge whether a movie is good or not? It is normal for some comedy movies to like to watch box office, but it is normal for "Fallen Leaves" to be a literary film that people don't like to watch..."
From the beginning to the end, Lin Xing will not do anything that the audience doesn't like to watch because of the so-called lack of aesthetics.
Isn’t it normal for the audience to not like to watch it? ?
People will watch whatever they want, and what is next to you? ?
And making a movie is to make a product. If you want the audience to like to watch it, then serve the audience.
Isn't it like Lin Xing's filming of "Charlotte's Troubles"? ?
But many times, Lin Xing also wants to try to make other movies, and he doesn't want to make movies for the sake of box office.
"I want to make a blockbuster, I want to make a blockbuster, a big reputation, a audience likes it, and the industry likes it, and it's also popular all over the world and swept some awards ceremony blockbusters, but I'll ask you." Lin Xing asked back to the reporter: "Do you think it's possible?"
The reporter also said: "It's really impossible."
"So, there's no need for everyone to report on this flop, I really think this movie is quite successful."
Lin Xing said with a smile: "You said we are very satisfied, and the audience was very satisfied after watching this movie. Why do you media have to be dissatisfied and say that the movie is a flop??"
Obviously, Lin Xing's words are useless.
Let's go, major media later wrote a report on the box office of "Fallen Leaves".
"The movie "Fallen Leaves" cannot be called a failure, but it is far from being successful. Think about how many box offices Lin Xing's first two art films "To Heaven" and "Sunspot" have reached? Let's look at the box office of "Fallen Leaves" this time?
Especially, "Charlotte's Troubles" just won a 10 billion box office. At this time, Lin Xing should have appeal, but he did not call for the box office of "Fallen Leaves" to soar further.
The May Day "Fallen Leaves" won the holiday box office with 530 million yuan and firmly ranked as the season champion, of course, is not considered a failure, and this is even a success.
But compared to Lin Xing, I think this is already a failure, because the failure of "Fallen Leaves" proves that Lin Xing's appeal does not exist and proves the survival dilemma of art films.
…
The media’s reports on “Fallen Leaves” are basically negative.
As for the Sixth Princess, she posted an article, which is [Elite Breakthrough in the Dilemma].
This article mainly talks about the aesthetic isolation of movies, especially third- and fourth-tier audiences and first-tier cities are often different.
Just like the love movies in the past, what does first-tier cities think this is a thing?
But third- and fourth-tier cities are buying tickets in a crazy way, and even crowded with them. This is actually an aesthetic isolation.
This is actually the case with most art films.
Just like the box office of "Fallen Leaves" this time, "Fallen Leaves" currently: the box office of first-tier cities accounts for 62%, and audiences in third- and fourth-tier cities have lost a lot of money due to "slow pace" and "unable to understand".
This is in sharp contrast to the fact that "Crazy Lottery" relies on small town youth to contribute 290 million yuan in box office.
...
This article is much better than those media who have written it in a sarcastic manner.
In addition, the Sixth Princess also said that the most noteworthy thing is that "Fallen Leaves" has achieved deep penetration among elite audiences, such as college movies, spontaneous analysis of film critics, Douban's 8.3-point reputation fermentation, etc., which still has a long-tail effect on the box office.
Now, the box office forecast of "Fallen Leaves" has risen to 900 million in the past two days.
This is the word-of-mouth effect.
Let’s put it this way, you can say that the Linxing effect is useless, but the word-of-mouth effect is still very useful. Many times, the word-of-mouth effect is the most fundamental reason for whether the box office can reach a long tail.
In the next few days, Lin Xing would still be with Guo Haishan and the others to perform on the roadshow. As for the box office of "Fallen Leaves", it is indeed as others think, and his box office forecasts will increase in sequence.
Until June 1, the box office of "Fallen Leaves" exceeded 1 billion in one month, which many people have unexpectedly expected.
Because many people thought that the 800 million failed before, and many people even thought that the Lin Xing effect had failed.
As a result, in a month, "Fallen Leaves" not only exceeded 800 million, but he even exceeded 1 billion.
If you compare "Charlotte's Troubles", it's still a failure, but the box office of "Fallen Leaves" exceeded 1 billion, which is not easy for art films.
Today is the celebration banquet for "Fallen Leaves".
He was really quite satisfied with Guo Haishan, because the production cost of "Fallen Leaves" is actually not high, especially Lin Xing's pay is the friendship price.
In Guo Haishan's opinion, "Fallen Leaves" had a long comeback. At the beginning, his minimum expectation was even as long as it exceeded 100 million.
Because it is really not easy to succeed in such a movie.
But I never expected that the market feedback would be so good.
The most new ⊥小小小小小小小小小小小小小小小小小小小小小小小小小小小小小小小小小小小小小小�
This also proves one thing, that is, as long as you make good movies, the box office will definitely be good.
At the celebration banquet, Guo Haishan also said: "The success of this movie cannot be separated from everyone's joint efforts. It's hard for everyone to run away from the road show during this period, especially Lin Xing. Lin Xing really paid too much for this movie, so I will definitely send you a red envelope later..."
Before, it was at the movie celebration banquet, and Lin Xing sent red envelopes to others.
Now it's okay, someone else sent a red envelope to Lin Xing.
Of course, it is impossible for Guo Haishan to just send red envelopes to Lin Xing alone. He sent red envelopes to all the leading actors.
"Next, A Xing, what are your plans??"
Guo Haishan asked with a smile: "Are you ready to shoot the previous movie??"
"It's almost the same. Actually, I want to start two more movies at the moment, but I still have some concerns..." Lin Xing said, "I want to make the script better. Of course, this will actually delay time again and again..."
"I have to take a break here."
Guo Haishan said, "Being a director is really too tiring. I now understand why some people need to be a director to have several assistant directors. Many people even only serve as producers but not directors."
Lin Xing said, "Yes, the director is really too devastating, and the director also needs to control the overall situation. In this regard, I think I am not qualified now, so I will not be a director in the short term, and I even feel that I can't be a director..."
"No, Ah Xing, I really think you are quite suitable for being a director."
Guo Haishan shook his head and said, "You actually have a strength, that is, everything is responsible for the audience. This strength needs to be persisted by the director. I have actually made guest appearances in some guest scenes before. I think those directors are not completely responsible for the audience. They even just want to be responsible for the investors..."
To be honest, Guo Haishan really thinks that it is too right to let Lin Xing film "Fallen Leaves".
When filming "Fallen Leaves", Lin Xing's acting skills were naturally guided by Guo Haishan, but sometimes Lin Xing can always have a flash of inspiration when understanding the script.
This flash is good for the movie.
This is also because Guo Haishan felt a little tired after filming this movie "Fallen Leaves", otherwise he really wanted to work with Lin Xing again.
After the celebration banquet, Lin Xing was naturally interviewed by the media.
"The second second part of "Die on Earth" is ready, and I still want to let "Die on Earth" meet everyone during the Spring Festival..."
"Yes, I just told Teacher Guo about this at the celebration banquet. There should be two movies next. I have also said before. One of them wants the heroine, which belongs to a suspense..."
Lin Xing smiled and said, "There is another action movie, but this is not a simple action movie. We want to shoot a movie with a main theme of modern war theme. I actually don't like everyone who thinks this movie is not good when they talk about the main theme. Just like Hollywood doesn't have the main theme? They have the same main theme..."
When Lin Xing said she wanted to make the movie of the heroine, both An Yifeng and Yang Tian called Lin Xing.
Of course, this time Lin Xing didn't want to praise them anymore.
At first, Lin Xing felt that An Yifeng and Yang Tian were not suitable, and Lin Xing felt that this part of Lin Miaoyin was almost time to transform.
For this reason, this movie was actually prepared for Lin Miaoyin.
The acting path needs to be expanded.
When I met Lin Miaoyin on the first day, Lin Xing felt that if Lin Miaoyin had a good acting skills, her acting career would be quite wide.
Lin Miaoyin can try this movie now.
This is the condition, I don’t have to worry about losing anyway.
We are not short of money now.
