The Director of Music Department

Seventy-six. Wu Han's Ambition

In previous years, March in Huaguo was definitely not a good time for the film industry. Generally speaking, an unpopular time frame meant that there were fewer movies released, but this year's March felt a little smoky.

Although the epic blockbuster "Aspiration to the World" released at the end of February did not achieve good results, it still cannot be underestimated.

At present, "Aspirations of the World" can still report a box office of over 10 million every day, and those films in the Spring Festival schedule, although for the cast of "Aspirations of the World", such data is definitely not good, but the skinny camel is better than Martha, "Wanting the World" is still continuing to reap the box office. It is an off-season, and the market almost falls below the 50 million mark every day. Compared with the hundreds of millions in a single day during the Spring Festival, it is really incomparable.

On March 10, "Unfamiliar Call", which was invested by Tianfang Group, one of the top five domestic giants, starred Hong Kong actor Chen Dahua and directed by Cao Meng, was released.

Although "Stranger Call" is not a big production, the director Cao Meng is not an unknown person, and this is a film starring actor Chen Dahua, so it should not be underestimated.

Although mainland film talents have emerged in large numbers in recent years, Hong Kong Island films have been somewhat underwhelming, but it does not mean that Hong Kong Island films have really completely declined.

On the first day of its premiere, Cao Meng's "Unfamiliar Call", relying on Chen Dahua's appeal, opened in nearly 3,000 theaters and won a first-day box office of 15 million.

This box office is not very good, but it is definitely not bad.

In this unpopular schedule, such box office data is enough to make it directly top the daily box office champion.

In the next three days, "Unknown Call" received another 50 million, and the box office reported nearly 70 million in the first weekend.

The box office of "Strange Call" is already enough to put pressure on the new films of Wang Yifan and Wu Han.

Of course, Wang Yifan is fine. After all, the treatment of "Grateful Heart" this time is completely different from before. No matter in terms of publicity or distribution scale, "Lilac Flower" cannot compare. Moreover, Wang Yifan is quite confident about "Grateful Heart", maybe he can't guarantee anything else, but this movie is definitely a tearjerker, and this is actually enough.

However, for Wu Han who insisted on raising the file, he couldn't laugh anymore, and this time Wu Han insisted on raising the file, there was no problem at first, but who would have thought that "Stranger Call" would come out.

Therefore, Wu Han is under a lot of pressure, not only from the box office pressure, but also from Huanyu's side for his insistence on raising the file.

For a schedule, especially an unpopular schedule like the end of March to April, whether the market can accommodate three movies of the level of "Unknown Call" at the same time is obviously a problem.

The key is that this time "Strange Call" can be said to be a double harvest at the word-of-mouth box office. On the audio-visual website, "Strange Call" has a score of more than 8 points, and nearly 10,000 people have rated it.

The media and film critics also gave a good evaluation of the suspenseful crime film "Stranger Call".

In the 3 working days of the second week, "Stranger Call" once again had a daily box office of over 10 million, and another 32 million was collected, and the total box office broke 100 million.

Thursday, March 17th Two films will be released today.

Wang Yifan and Wu Han, dubbed by the media today as the twin stars of the new generation of directors, will face a head-to-head confrontation.

The same is the first film breaking 100 million, the same is young and promising, and the same is the second film. Whoever can win this game will undoubtedly become the most dazzling existence among the new generation of directors. At the premiere, some well-known film critics, media, etc. are usually invited to watch the movie. , at least not discredited.

This is why, most of the time, when a movie is just released, it is almost unanimously praised.

Zhang Weiming (guest star of book friend Zhang Sgan) is a film critic, and he is the kind of senior film critic who has his own personal column, so his film reviews are usually worth a lot of money.

The red envelopes are also bigger than the average online film critics, so he can be regarded as a small player in the film critic circle.

Zhang Weiming not only received an invitation from "Grateful Heart", but also received an invitation from "White Blood Cell". However, Zhang Weiming didn't like Wang Yifan. On the contrary, he felt that there was nothing wrong with Wu Han's previous accusations. Wang Yifan's movie was the MV Movie.

Zhang Weiming didn't like it mainly because these kinds of movies were usually commercial movies, and for film critics, writing a movie review for a commercial movie and still wanting to praise it obviously couldn't highlight his professionalism as a film critic.

Because everyone praises it, what's the point?

But Wu Han is different. His first movie showed great ambition. Yes, Wu Han's movies are usually unexpected. Writing a movie review for such a movie is obviously more in line with Zhang Weiming's appetite.

Today Zhang Weiming specially brought his new girlfriend to the premiere of "White Blood Cell".

Wu Han led a group of creative staff, and after a routine opening, he finally got to the point, and the film began to be screened.

From the perspective of the family, this movie tells about a family who returned to poverty due to illness, and the only child was found to have blood cancer, that is, leukemia.

The first half of the story focuses on the child suffering from leukemia, and then the originally happy family has become fragmented.

In order to treat the child's illness, the child's parents sold the house, but they had enough money, but they did not find a matching bone marrow.

In desperation, the child's parents did everything possible to find media reports and appeal to well-wishers to donate bone marrow.

But the matching was still not successful. At the desperate moment of the child's parents, the child's father accidentally heard the doctor talking to someone on the phone and learned that the bone marrow matching was successful, but the other party was unwilling to donate.

The child's father found the person who had a successful match but was unwilling to donate through several inquiries and even stole the hospital's information. He knelt in front of the person and begged, but the person was unwilling to donate.

For this reason, in desperation, the child's father chose to take the most extreme path. He kidnapped the parents of the successful match and used it as a threat to make the other party donate bone marrow to his child for transplantation.

To be honest, Zhang Weiming was a little disappointed, because so far this "White Blood Cell" has been quite satisfactory.

As a commercial film, such a plot is qualified. This can be seen from the reaction of the girlfriend around him. Well, in terms of sensationalism, Wu Han did a good job. At least the previous kneeling made Zhang Weiming His girlfriend, as well as some audience members in the theater couldn't help but have red eyes.

But Zhang Weiming was a little disappointed. He didn't care about the box office of the movie. He cared more about whether there was anything special about the movie. So far, he didn't find it.

At the same time, Wu Han was also observing the reaction of the audience in the theater.

It can be said that Wu Han has high hopes for this "White Blood Cell". He is a proud person. He has been the best since he was a child.

It's a pity that Wang Yifan was out of nowhere before, but this time, Wu Han was determined to get back his number one place by forcing "White Blood Cell" to be promoted.

"If there are no accidents in the following plot, it should be that the child was cured, but the child's father was sent to prison." Wu Han heard some film critics speculate.

"Well, although the routine is a bit old, the film is still good, but it's too commercialized." Another film critic nodded in agreement.

However, the corner of Wu Han's mouth was slightly curved. This is what he wanted.

In fact, at this moment, Zhang Weiming, his girlfriend and many viewers all guessed this way, and this is the most conventional ending.

However, Zhang Weiming was surprised by the plot direction and the finale of the following movie, and many viewers were a little stunned.
