Bai Yanwen originally thought that he should start shooting from high school? He used the method of opening 'Those Years.'
But after thinking for a long time, he still didn't do that.
The female lead was Big Honey. She had a girly vibe. She said that she had it, but when it came out, the effect was not that good.
College students were fine, but high school students were a little ridiculous.
Fortunately, this was a 23-year-old Big Mimi, not a 32-year-old Big Mimi.
When she was thirty-two years old, she probably had the courage to act as a high school student, but Bai Yanwen didn't have the courage to do it.
On the contrary, they were both university students at this age, so they were very suitable.
The first half of the movie had a lot of youthful symbols, and there were a lot of funny points. Bai Yan's text mixed in a lot of the beauty of youth movies, making many viewers subconsciously laugh.
In the movie, Big Honey became a " Jade Face Little Flying Dragon " on the university campus.
Very handsome, very valiant, and very big!
It almost brought out all her good points.
When Bai Yanwen was thinking about the female protagonist setting, he realized that the female protagonist setting of the original version of " To Youth " was the most suitable for her.
He could make Big Mimi look like Shen Jiayi, but he would feel weird about it.
Directly copying the original movie did not guarantee success.
Everyone, or rather, every girl, had different characteristics.
Regardless of whether Chen Yan was sucking on white paper or newspapers, she could indeed give people the feeling of first love.
........
The first half of the movie made the audience laugh so happily that they felt like they had been given candy.
In the latter half of the game, the knife he suffered was even more vicious.
Although there were no disgusting elements such as fighting, abortion, or being cuckolded, Bai Yanwen chose another cruel element.
Separation.
The moment the male protagonist Chen Xiaozheng chose to go abroad, many film critics finally understood many of the previous metaphor.
A promotional banner for studying abroad on campus.
He overheard other students 'thoughts about studying in America.
The gap between the family backgrounds of the male and female leads.
And so on. Actually, Bai Yanwen had already put them in the movie, both openly and secretly.
Many directors liked to use this method. At the moment when the puzzle was revealed, it could give the audience a sense of enlightenment.
F * ck, so he was waiting here.
After that, it was the choice of the male lead, Chen Xiaozheng. Of course, he chose to leave.
In order to make the audience feel that the male lead was not too heartless, Bai Yanwen had arranged some scenes that made him feel like he was in a dilemma.
Speaking of which, if he really acted as himself and filmed it as himself, hesitating for even a second would be disrespectful to his future.
However, that would be too cruel and not in line with the girls 'longing for love.
However, Bai Yanwen had arranged this because he wanted to use such a character to capture the male audience who thought they were rational.
As for the female audience, they were handed over to Big Mimi.
The last time the two of them saw each other, when she looked back and a tear fell from her slightly red eyes, Bai Yanwen made her take over 30 bad takes.
Hence, the effect.
..........
" The plot is simple, and the characters are all facial. Only the male and female leads are more three-dimensional."
The reviews that some film critics wrote on paper were generally not very high.
They weren't ordinary audiences, and they didn't like to watch all kinds of flowers and full moons. They liked to watch the director show off his skills, explore human nature, and have a sense of art.
It was not impossible for a youth film to produce all these things.
However, Bai Yanwen still chose the filming method with the highest box office earnings.
He expressed that he was very restrained in some of the funny and slightly vulgar scenes. At least, he did not act out any crazy love scenes, defeating magic with magic, or the characters collectively acting.
Although hopeless romanticism sounded good, it was often accompanied by various kinds of brainless behavior in the plot.
However, he only gave the overall quality of the movie seven points.
His grading standards might be much stricter than those of film critics ~
However, he would definitely get scolded.
How could a commercial movie not be criticized?
The more people spat, the more angry they became.
Of course, those really trashy movies were another story.
.........
The fake artistic scene of moaning without a disease, Bai Yanwen's movie skills had been greatly reduced, or should it be said that he had revealed his true form? There were so many words about the pain of youth, couldn't some of the lines be said in a human language?
To be honest, although it wasn't considered a bad movie, compared to the experience of the first movie, this movie was a little cliché. However, it could be seen that Bai Yanwen really wanted the box office. It was purely a commercial film, and his face was too obvious to please a certain portion of the audience.
He didn't want to give too many comments. He gave the movie a seven. He had wanted to give it a fail, but the last part of the movie, the choice of the male lead and the tear of the female lead, added two points. Without that, it would be an ordinary, crappy movie.
【........】
"Have you arranged for the negative reviews and troll reviews to be deleted?”
"Don't worry, it's been arranged. The money has been fully paid. Three days before the screening, no, five days before the screening, the ratings will definitely be controlled to be above eight points.”
"It's too low. Douban's control is above 8.5. As for platforms like Taobao, pull it above 9.5.”
"He's so ruthless. Will he use too much force?”
"Using too much force? I still feel that I didn't use enough strength!"
Looking at Bai Yanwen's determined expression, Zhou Chongguang did not try to persuade him any further. He only said," I feel that you can make a better movie."”
Bai Yanwen smiled."You're quite confident in me ~"
"You are a genius."
"Let's talk about it in the future. I only want the box office earnings now.”
Speaking of which, the male lead in those entertainment novels seemed to be able to double the box office and gain fame and fortune no matter what he filmed.
In comparison, Bai Yanwen felt that he was a little weak.
The male lead in a novel didn't need to be censored.
They were the ones who were controlling the comments.
However, when it came to Bai Yanwen, it was not just controlling the reviews. If the conditions allowed it, or even if the funds were available, he would dare to increase the box office.
Money and means should be spent on the blade.
He had never spent money to comment on his own Weibo. He just let people scold him as they pleased, and all the haters took turns to perform.
However, he would not hesitate to spend the money he needed.
So what if he hired Internet trolls? He wouldn't feel any moral guilt.
As long as he could pull the box office, he could use any means.
Therefore, when some passers-by walked into the cinema and hesitated about choosing a movie, they opened various movie rating software and saw...
The genius director had created another new masterpiece! "To Youth" is sad and happy only because it is true and complete, and it is even more difficult to get rid of unnecessary writing. There was no need for fancy images. The lines were powerful and full of simple power. Although they were simple, they were true.
The advantages and disadvantages were closely related to the memories of youth, so it was not so abrupt. Using youth and childishness to complete what could perhaps be called a dream, even the immaturity was a mess. Perhaps many years later, when he looked back, his current regrets would be worth remembering.
We all live the way we hate. The male and female leads in the middle are also us in real life.
I'm willing to be a shining psychopath in your ordinary life.
【.........】
This was called professionalism.
.........
"Get in touch with more film critics who boast about the truth. It would be best if they can write some so-called 'personal experience' short stories. Right now, I don't need good reviews. What I want is a sense of realism.”
Compared to the previous film, Crazy Stone, To Youth was simply a king of a start.
As for the opponent…Of course, it was also very powerful.
Even though there was no old man this time, there was a big director who could be said to be more fierce in the fight for box office.
Small cannon.
However," To Youth " was released ten days after " Earthquake " was released, so the two of them avoided the most direct collision.
He didn't fight to the death during the most important box office harvest period.
This was also the tacit understanding between the movies produced by big companies.
This was especially so during the summer holidays, when the domestic movies were protected. Most of the movies produced by the big companies were divided and eaten up, squeezing out the market share of the smaller films.
However, even though Bai Yanwen could be considered to have taken over the role of " Earthquake,"" To Youth " had stolen so many screenings the moment it was released. One of them couldn't help but criticize Bai Yanwen in front of the reporters as a senior.
"Some young directors still have to respect the laws of the market. They shouldn't rely on their recklessness and throw in so much money."
"Ignore him. There's no benefit in arguing with him.”
Bai Yanwen, who was being fired by the small cannon, was very calm.
This time, it was different from the previous online criticism. The little cannon wanted to take advantage of him. How could he let this happen?
Bai Yanwen didn't even care about the other party. You can scold him, why would he, Bai Yanwen, be afraid of being scolded?
I'm just afraid that your scolding isn't fresh enough.
The box office gave the answer.
The box office earnings in a single day were 45 million!
This answer stunned everyone in the industry.
Damn it. Why?
This box office result was even more shocking than the miracle of 'Mad Stone' back then.
It was just a romantic teen movie. How could it have such exaggerated power?
Didn't the audience enjoy watching blockbusters?
If one were to say that Avatar at the beginning of the year had cast a shadow over the domestic film industry, it had become a huge mountain that weighed down on everyone.
Bai Yanwen's actions were like a slap to the faces of these seniors.
Many people had said that it was unlikely for a domestic film to achieve results similar to Avatar in the next few years.
In the end, half a year hadn't even passed, and someone had already jumped up and slapped him in the face?
Oh, no, he hadn't completely fought yet. He had just gotten a good start. At most, he had hit his knees.
But it's still hard to understand
On the other side, Bai Yanwen heaved a long sigh of relief after seeing the box office results on the first day. Then, he tensed up again.
One call after another was made." Continue! I want to see more than 50 million yuan at the box office tomorrow. I'll continue to increase the investment in publicity! No money? If you don't have money, go ask Wu Kebo for it! Ask him to transfer another ten million!"
"Where's Big Mimi? Add three more roadshows in three cities tomorrow."
"Show? She would go on whatever show there was. She could handle it! He's using her like an animal!"
