Huayu started as a lecturer at Beijing Film Academy

"On December 20, 2013, at 20:00 local time in the United States, the 71st American Film and Television Golden Globe Awards announced the nomination list. "The Invisible Guest" by Zongheng Film and Television won the Best Screenplay and Best Picture in the Drama Category , Best Actor in a Drama Series, Best Supporting Actor in a Drama Series, and Best Actress in a Drama Series were nominated for five awards! Because the Golden Globe Awards do not award technical awards, "The Invisible Guest" is equal to winning in addition to the director award! All nominations!”

This is a report from Yang Ma Chaowen Tianxia.

Originally, they wanted to connect with Gu Zhongyu live, but unfortunately, they couldn't find him at all, so they asked director Chen Sicheng for an interview.

Chen Sicheng has been suffering from scandals recently, and his girlfriend Yaya is ignoring him again, so he has a headache. He didn't expect so many awards to fall from the sky. Although he is not sure that he will win, this still makes him ecstatic. After all, he can It would be nice to have a nomination, it is tantamount to making him reach the sky in one step!

Facing the visiting reporters, Chen Sicheng talked eloquently and was full of confidence in the upcoming Oscars.

In China, "The Invisible Guest" was also released on December 3, with a final box office of 680 million, which can be regarded as breaking the box office of domestic suspense films. After all, the subject matter is relatively niche, the style is dark, and it is too brain-intensive. , who is naturally capable of dissuading many moviegoers, and such an achievement is rare.

And as 2013 enters the last month, the Lunar New Year holiday has naturally begun.

The initial Lunar New Year period extended from mid-to-late December to early January. Later, due to the intensification of blockbuster blockbusters, the Lunar New Year period was repeatedly advanced to early November, and extended to the end of February and early March of the New Year, spanning Christmas, New Year's Day, Spring Festival, Lantern Festival, Valentine's Day multiple holidays.

Since last year, this period has been subdivided into the Lunar New Year period and the Spring Festival period. The Lunar New Year period in 2013 started on November 29 and ended on January 3.

Looking through the released movies, how should I put it, this year’s Lunar New Year release is a bit surprising. Apart from Feng Pants, there is no other first-line director. By the way, there are also Brother Cheng Long’s "Police Story 2013" and the upcoming "Macau" "Wind and Cloud"

Da Tiantian beat herself this time!

Originally, Wang Jin also wanted to release "Macau" during the Spring Festival, but that would collide with "Bliss on the Heart", so after negotiation, they moved the movie to the Lunar New Year slot. Even if it loses, it will make you feel sick. The Wang brothers are also good!

Not to mention compared to the 2010 PK between the three major directors Kaizi Ge, Jiang Wen and Feng Pants, nor the almost fierce battle between Xu Laoguai and Lao Mouzi in 2011, even the quality of last year was a bit lower. No, Ang Lee's "Pi" finally joined the fray last year.

This year, front-line directors such as Lao Mouzi, Old Monster Xu, Brother Kaizi, etc. have collectively disappeared.

Feng Pengtong looked at Wang Jin and Chen Musheng who were surrounding him. He felt very excited. He felt that the two of them were not enough to watch. They were both directors from Xiangjiang, and the films they filmed were all over-the-top (although he himself was the same). How could these people have their own rights? Do you understand the preferences of mainland audiences?

Looks like my pants will be full during this year’s Lunar New Year!

So on December 1st, "Private Customization" was announced to be released.

During the entire Lunar New Year period, there are really not many movies for the audience to choose from. Although Feng Pengtang is short-tempered, he does have a certain amount of capital in the field of comedies and Lunar New Year movies, so everyone's first choice is to watch "Private Customization" 》

Then they feel unhappy after reading it, holy shit! What is this NM?

Isn't this the extended version of "Party A and Party B"!

"The most conscientious thing about this movie is that it didn't make it into 3D!"

"I don't want to spoil it in advance, but I must say it responsibly. After watching "Private Order", the only thing I wanted to do was to silently extend my middle finger. Believe me, this movie is not worth spending a penny to enter. Cinema, trying to make you laugh in the most insincere way! Feng Pants has really reached the point of satisfying himself and disgusting others!”

"After watching it, I just want to say that "Tiny Times" is a good movie!"

"I went to the cinema with the mentality that it must be a bad movie, but in the end, I was not disappointed!"

There are all negative reviews on the Internet. If it weren't for the powerful trolls of the Wang brothers who flooded the film with praises for free, the movie "Private Customization" would have become the biggest shame in Feng Pants' career!

Even some film critics couldn't stand it!

"This movie is just to fool the audience. The whole movie is just three sketches."

""Private Order" can really make people full of anger while watching it. I just want to say that there is such a shameless movie in the world!"

Feng Pants never cared about the opinions of film critics and netizens. He was just worried that negative reviews would affect the box office, especially at the same time as him, Wang Jin's "Macau" was also released.

Frankly speaking, these two movies are not very good. It can even be said that the quality of "Macau Storm" is even worse than "Private Customization". However, the audience has no expectations for Wang Jin. After all, who doesn't know Wang Jin? King's best thing is shit comedies?

After all, the movie still has the feelings of Fat Brother and God of Gamblers to promote, although the presence of Da Tiantian on the poster has put many people away...

However, they originally went to watch the movie with a happy attitude, and the movie was just like that. It was all bad jokes left over from Wang Jin's own play. It was full of the taste of overnight dinner, but the heat was relatively positive, and it felt like it was concocted. Still, it's fast-paced and can be watched without thinking.

The current domestic audience is still very easy to entertain. The requirements for New Year's comedies are all about being lively and festive. If you want to be lively, you can't be silent. If you want to be festive, you shouldn't use your brain too much. Therefore, there must be beauties, fight scenes, big scenes, and the plot line should be followed in a strict manner. You can get a lot of box office by making jokes like cross talk.

This movie is Zhang Zilin's first appearance on the big screen. She plays Shi Yijian's secretary. Although she doesn't have many roles, her tall and beautiful appearance still attracted a lot of fans to her. However, the audience found out that this girl is online. There is very little information about him. What can be found so far is that he worked for a certain technology company, and nothing else is known about it. It seems very mysterious...

"Macau" has been competing with "Private Order" since its release. The two films competed for each other's box office, and "Police Story 2013", which was sandwiched in the middle, became a victim and quickly sold out at the box office. !

Ten days after the Lunar New Year slot 1, "Private Order" was one step ahead at the box office and successfully exceeded 500 million, breaking the record for Feng Pants comedy movies. The second place "Macau Storm" was close to 400 million, and it was already the king. Jin has the best results in the mainland film market

Now Feng Pants couldn't bear it any longer!

Being ahead by a dime is money. Now that my brother has made money, there is no need to pretend to be a grandson anymore!

Therefore, on December 11, Feng Pants posted 7 consecutive Weibo posts to directly respond, supporting "Private Customization" in a high-profile manner.

"A bunch of self-righteous people are trying to shut my mouth under the guise of "not accepting criticism." Who stipulates that you are only allowed to criticize and criticize crazy curses, and I am not allowed to speak back? Do you mean you are right? You know yourselves Is this true? You are still pretending to have democratic ideas all day long. If you want to defend your right to speak, please tear off your masks and reveal your cultural nacui."

"Today it was said that Party A and Party B were fine, I still remember the scolding at that time. It didn't look like a movie, it was a series of sketches, it had no characters, it was a cheap baggage. It has the same accent as today, nothing like it. New idea, nonsense.”

"From "1942" to "Private Customization," your ridicule and carnival exactly reflect your shallowness. I look down on you. Stop leading the audience with a shy face. It's a shame."

"The movie is said to be magical and deceived here, as if you guys know better. You can't even understand the subtext of the movie. You guys won't be able to find it after two twists and turns. I have to translate it into plain language and give it to you guys. I really heard it, but I still have the nerve to say that I am a film critic, so don’t show it to me!”

However, if film critics criticize you, that’s the film critic’s business, and netizens are making negative comments, so you just don’t care?

He took time out of his busy schedule to criticize a few film critics. He guessed it was because he was paid but didn't say anything nice. As for the netizens, he didn't have the time to talk to them.

Fortunately, most of the audiences in our country do not believe what the critics say. Ninety percent of the audience choose to watch a movie because of the star cast and their trust in the director.

The title of Feng Pants King of Lunar New Year stalls is not for nothing, it has been accumulated over more than ten years!

Although "Private Order" is indeed terrible and the plot is not very good, it is Feng's comedy after all.

Just Feng Pants and Uncle Ge, these two people are worth 500 million!

Therefore, "Private Customization" exceeded 500 million in 10 days. In comparison, it really cannot be considered a box office hit.

It's a pity that Feng Pengtang is only concerned with vertical comparison. Indeed, compared with the dozen of his previous movies, the box office of "Private Customization" is indeed not bad, but that is because the market has prospered, let alone more than 500 million, there are even 1 billion. !

Ten years ago, the total domestic film market was less than 1 billion. You sold a movie of 100 million, accounting for 10%.

Now, the total amount of the mainland film market is close to 30 billion. You have sold 500 million of a movie, which is not even 5%, but you are still complacent!

Poor, sad!

This TM is the film master of China!

Compare this to John Lee Hancock, who is also a master. His new work "The Dreamer" and "Private Order" were released almost at the same time. Of course, one was released in North America and the other in China.

Although it was released in different places, the situations of the two people are surprisingly similar, because "The Big Dreamer" was also fiercely attacked by film critics. Unlike our director Feng, John Lee Hancock generously admitted that he was thinking when directing. It's not quite right!

The big screen in the Lunar New Year season was disappointing, but the small screen did gain some respectability.

2013 was the year when the Korean wave exploded. In the previous years, although there were occasionally a few Korean dramas that were widely circulated, few were as crazy as 2013.

Previously, "The Heirs" became popular in the mainland and received countless screams. However, in "My Love from the Star", which aired in November, Kim Soo-hyun became popular again, and even became more popular than his predecessor Lee Min-ho.

Fortunately, "Descendants of the Sun" produced by Zongheng Film and Television made a comeback and suppressed "My Love from the Star" in terms of playback volume and topicality. Otherwise, domestic dramas in the second half of the year would have been underwhelmed. The situation of Korean dramas being suppressed is so embarrassing!

In December, "Descendants of the Sun", which was broadcast exclusively on Mango Channel, finally came to an end. In the last few episodes, the ratings reached an astonishing 3.02%!

From the start to the end, the number of views reached 8 billion, ranking first in the entire network!

The year 2013 was not yet an era when a TV series from a popular niche could easily generate tens of billions of views. The record of online views set by "Descendants of the Sun" has been maintained for a long time, and it was not until "The Legend of Ancient Swords" and "The Legend of Wu Zetian" that it was released. will be broken!

It is rare for a domestic drama to beat a Korean drama in the field of idol dramas, and the people are very happy. But at this time, the 2014 Spring Festival Gala director team sent such a message: Lee Min Ho may be invited to participate in the CCTV Spring Festival Gala!

Many people said they couldn't understand. The Spring Festival Gala is a party for Chinese people to gather together. What do you mean by inviting a stick?

Of course, there are also many fans of Lee Min Ho who are very happy and feel that it is definitely a good thing to see their idol on the screen with their own eyes.

The controversy became more and more intense, and finally director Feng Pengtong came forward to explain: "People like this person very much, so we extended the invitation!"

have to! The blame has been passed on to the people again!

This is true. Can the opinions of a small group of people on the Internet represent the common people?

Besides, if we like you, please do your best to satisfy us. Then we also like money. Why don’t you donate all your wealth to the people?

It's a pity that they never expected that Lee Min Ho would pass out so quickly. In just two months, he would be overshadowed by his junior Kim Soo Hyun!

…

In mid-December, Gu Zhongyu and Zhang Zilin returned to China. The happy time was always short-lived, and he didn't know when the next trip would be.

The first thing I did when I came back was to celebrate the success of "Macau Storm". Although it failed to beat "Private Custom" to become the box office champion of the Lunar New Year season, the current box office of nearly 400 million is undoubtedly very successful commercially. Visual inspection In the end, there will be about 600 million, which is a huge profit, so we still need to celebrate when it is time to celebrate.

The official celebration banquet had already been held for Wang Jin, but Gu Zhongyu couldn't make it, so Zhang Ruoyun, the male protagonist, invited him to his home for dinner. Also invited were Zhang Jin, who played the role of Ghost Eye, and his wife Cai Shaofen, Zhang Songwen, who plays Mr. Gao, and Yu Bo, who is brought in by Gu Zhongyu.

Yu Bo and Zhang Jin are old friends. They were brothers in the Zhouyi period and the childhood idols of countless people. Cai Shaofen and Yu Bo played lovers many times, and they are very familiar with each other!

Martial arts practitioners are indeed different. When the two met, they first punched each other as a way of greeting. Then Yu Bo turned around and Cai Shaofen hugged each other.

"It seems like your kid is doing well in the Hong Kong film and television industry. It's just different if you have a good wife to help you!"

Yang Junyi, who was once the Three Treasures of Zhou Yi, has quit the industry to become a coach. Yu Bo's career has not developed in these years. Instead, Zhang Jin, who was the most inconspicuous at the beginning, has appeared in "The Grandmaster" and "Macau Storm" one after another, and has a tendency to become popular in his middle age.

"Don't mention it. It's most comfortable to stay in the mainland. It's hard to get along in Xiangjiang. I'm still not used to hearing people talk there!"

Cai Shaofen, who is from Xiangjiang, was very dissatisfied and said in a Mandarin accent that could make people laugh to death: "Then why did you marry me? Wouldn't it make it more uncomfortable for you to hear my accent like this?"

"puff……"

Although it was not the first time that Tang Yixin heard Cai Shaofen speaking Mandarin, she couldn't help laughing, "Who dares to say that the Queen is not good! Everyone, take your seats first. Our Lao Zhang is cooking, and the food is going quickly. Just fine!”

"Dayun...not bad, he can also cook. Yi Xin, you are so lucky to have such a husband!"

"Yes! My husband can't even cook..."

After Gu Zhongyu arrived at Zhang Ruoyun's house, he couldn't help but look around. He remembered that the place he came to before was not here. Did this guy buy a new house?

"Dayunzi, you didn't seem to live here before, right?" He came to the kitchen and looked at Zhang Ruoyun who was busy and asked.

"Well, I used to live two streets away, but that house belonged to my father. I moved out as soon as I got last year's salary. Although this house is not big, it is my own at least, and I don't need to take advantage of him. !”

Hearing this, Gu Zhongyu shook his head. Every family has its own sutras that are difficult to recite!

Maybe every stepmother has a stepfather. Because Zhang Ruoyun's father Zhang Jian remarried, the relationship between father and son has been very tense since childhood. Zhang Ruoyun was even raised by his grandparents since he was a child, and he is very alienated from his father.

After growing up, Zhang Ruoyun's relationship with his father Zhang Jian can also be described as a gentleman's friendship. He never took the initiative to talk to his father or ask for his help. When Zhang Ruoyun was about to become an adult, Zhang Jian seemed to have a conscience. When Zhang Ruoyun was taking the college entrance examination, I specially found my son and suggested that he apply for Nortel.

Zhang Ruoyun followed his father's advice and successfully got admitted to Nortel. Later, when Zhang Jian directed "Snow Leopard", Zhang Ruoyun was given a lovable role, Liu Zhihui, and he entered the entertainment industry.

The relationship between father and son had just improved, but Zhang Jian began to dictate his son's career plan. Zhang Ruoyun's later film "Huo Qubing" was forced by his father to take over.

Even without telling Zhang Ruoyun, he forged Zhang Ruoyun's signature and signed a contract with Huace for three film and television dramas. Because the quality of these three dramas was not very good and they were not suitable for Zhang Ruoyun to star in. In addition, the salary given by Huace had already been put into Zhang Ruoyun's pocket. Jian's pocket has been squandered, all used to invest in promoting his new wife Feng Yue.

Therefore, Zhang Ruoyun refused to participate in the show. Huace then sued Zhang Jian and Zhang Ruoyun at the same time, and Zhang Ruoyun's assets were subsequently frozen.

At this point, the relationship between father and son has completely come to an end.

Originally, Zhang Ruoyun's life had changed a lot in this life because he knew Gu Zhongyu in advance. He didn't sign with his father's company, nor did he take those bad movies. So he thought that their father-son relationship would be eased a little.

Unexpectedly, it still broke down!

No wonder Zhang Ruoyun and Guo Qilin became good friends in their previous life. The two people did have a lot in common...

Zhang Ruoyun brought the last dish to the table, "Okay, the dishes are ready, let's eat!"
