China Entertainment King of Science Fiction

Chapter 67 The Rainbow Fart of Fans

"Fatal Identity" closed again on Sunday with a cumulative box office of 88.16 million yuan in the first weekend, ranking second in the mainland box office list from January 3 to 9. This is Chen Jingxing's first theater movie, and he lost the entire daytime of Friday.

The number one is Jianghe Culture's "Blood Knife Invincible", which has a cumulative box office of 220 million, but it is obviously no longer possible. The industry predicts that it will be difficult to exceed 300 million, because the reputation of "Fatal Identity" has exploded on a large scale, and the schedule of "Blood Knife Invincible" may be about to dive.

After Chen Jingxing and his main creators opened screenings in various cities, the media audience meeting was still effective, and there was a trend of "Fatal Identity" in various paper media and newspapers.

"Chutian Metropolis Daily" said: "The most fatal identity is beyond the heart of the people. "Fatal Identity" uses multiple metaphors to build a exquisite script structure. The presentation with the wilderness and snow country as the base color, one by one, one by one, one by one, constantly rendering a deep thriller atmosphere. The reversal of multiple personality has created an extraordinary suspense impression several times. It is difficult for people to guess the movies that are willing to guess the ending, which are considered as classic domestic suspense masterpieces."

The entertainment editorial department of Yangcheng Evening News also praised the title of "Fatal Identity": "This is a milestone in Chinese commercial films, marking a new look in my country's film creation and production. The younger generation of directors represented by Chen Jing's behavior have assumed the important task of expanding the genre film market for China."

"Xinmin Evening News" Art Review: "The discussion of human nature is one of the eternal themes of the film. The film may tell us the truth that the most evil souls are often the most harmless in appearance and are hidden the deepest."

Southern Metropolis Daily is more sublimated: "Painted Skin has opened up the symbol of the new magic of the Oriental, and the big movie "Pleasant Goat" makes up for the gap in domestic commercial animation movies. The biography of the characters includes "Mei Lanfang", the love comedy includes "Love Call Transfer", and the multi-line narrative includes "Crazy Stone" and "Crazy Racing". Now there is another science fiction suspense masterpiece "Fatal Identity", which marks the genre of Chinese films becoming better and the film market structure is becoming more and more reasonable. Domestic films with diverse styles form multiple types, multiple varieties, and diversified film product structures, which is the basic requirement for the sustainable development of the film industry. Of course, due to the review restrictions, many movie types have not been relaxed, which to a certain extent restricts the diversified development of Chinese film genres, which is also an urgent problem that needs to be solved in front of film practitioners."

In the natural Internet era, no matter how famous the paper media is, it is difficult to lead public opinion. The main position of spreading word-of-mouth in "Fatal Identity" is still on the Internet.

Whether it is a Weibo topic, Zhihu hot list, or Douban Tianya Hupu Tieba, "Fatal Identity" is like a virus to show its presence on various websites. It must be admitted that Luo Chen's fans have made great contributions to it. As the only first-line male idol star in China, even though they face the challenge of the third-generation Korean wave group, many Korean wave fans have been diverted to several Chinese players in the third-generation group, but they have not returned to China yet. As the only seedling cultivated by the local Korean wave production line, Luo Chen still has a solid fan base. Even "Fatal Identity" has played a role in consolidating fans.

Of course, Chen Jingxing has his own fans, and this group is growing.

As the owner of this article, Rainbow Fart, which is very popular online, Chen Jingxing never gets tired of reading it. Who doesn’t like to watch fans praise him?

As a fan and a senior movie fan of this young director, I can say with shamelessness that even if I look at the international scene, Chen Jingxing is one of the best directors who combine dramatic narrative and novel creativity. Let me borrow the rainbow farts that many idol fans brag for their idols:

Chen Jingxing, the future is promising."

Chen Jingxing said disdainfully: "When the video was being screened in the theater before, I saw the rainbow farts of your fans by browsing on your phone on Weibo. You can still watch it for so many years, and I have to enjoy it."

The creators of "Fatal Identity" are sitting in the airport VIP waiting room waiting for flights.

"What is the value of Chen Jingxing?

Films are the art of light and shadow, and the art of vision and hearing. From an artistic perspective, stories have never been the focus of this art category, but do we lack art films? In fact, there is no shortage. The three major European awards, Chinese literary and artistic directors, have already won all of them. What we lack is commercial films and qualified commercial films. From the perspective of commercial films, stories are the basis of everything. If Chinese films want to go abroad and go to the world again when martial arts action films are declining, we need more commercial film directors who know how to tell stories.

He is good at keeping the audience in a narrative rhythm that is parallel or even backward through the perspective of non-God, thereby arousing your curiosity. His film works are not to be above the audience, but are not just entertainment and toys for people to enjoy. He does not rely on visual wonders and chases and fights to stimulate the audience's adrenaline, but throws clues to you, forcing you to turn your brain to guess the answer to the riddle, and then get spiritual enjoyment for the answer to the riddle. Therefore, many details have to be discovered by you twice and thirdly.

When other movie fans cheered and cheered for Chen Jingxing's creativity, I paid more attention to his ability to tell stories. His two movies have indeed made many innovations in content and settings, especially concepts, but it should be noted that creativity is not uncommon, and everyone has their own ideas. Even if you have read a few online novels, you can still find some novel ideas from them.

"Director Chen, be more reserved, there are others here." Luo Chen came in next to him and took a bottle of mineral water and handed it to Chen Jingxing, with an expression of unbearable looking at him.

Whether in "The Night of Comets" or "The Fatal Identity", we will experience it. At the beginning, we are presented with a seemingly ordinary plot starting point, shocking reversals that are shocked by various amazing ideas in the middle, and the shock and aftertaste of the end when the answer is truly revealed.

It is because he always makes the audience look forward to the next moment, but he does not allow the audience to stay at this moment.

A blog written by Chen Jingxing's fan on the Internet has been widely reprinted.

Incorporating creativity into the story is the crucial ability! And this is exactly the ability that Chinese commercial films lack.

Luo Chen was about to refute when he heard Chen Jingxing's cell phone ringing.

"Hey? Sister Zhang, what's wrong?...what?! I understand... OK... OK...no problem."

Luo Chen looked at Chen Jingxing's serious face and asked, "What's wrong?"

Chen Jingxing squeezed out five words from his back groove: "Someone steals the box office!"
