"Hot Search" confused me. Was this really shot by Xin Yukun?
If you go back five or six years ago and ask who is the most popular actress at the moment, the answer will definitely be Zhou Dongyu.
In 2016, "July and Ansheng" won the Golden Horse Award. In 2017, "Spring Breeze Ten Miles Like You" became very popular. "Like You", a collaboration with Takeshi Kaneshiro, won the Chinese Directors Association's Actress of the Year.
In 2018, Rene Liu's directorial debut "The Next Us" exceeded 1 billion in 5 days, and the final box office was 1.3 billion.
In 2019, "Young You" hit a box office of 1.5 billion during its unpopular period. Zhou Dongyu won the Golden Rooster and Golden Statue Double Best Actress with this film, becoming the first post-90s generation to win three Golden Best Actress Awards.
has strong strength and high box office, and can take care of both art and market.
But in recent years, the words "Mercury retrograde" have been taken to the extreme.
Currently, Zhou Dongyu has released 6 movies this year.
"Burning Winter" became a hot topic for complaints on the Internet, with box office sales stalling at around 25 million. The second film "Parrot Killer" was not much better, and the rating was also unsatisfactory. Because it was not very popular, even the people who complained about it None, and the platter movie "Changsha Nightlife" is even more transparent.
Only two movies, "King of the Sky" and "Sturdy as a Rock", performed well, but Zhou Dongyu only played a supporting role as an embellishment and was not written on the credit book.
It doesn’t work once, it doesn’t work twice, it should work the third time, right?
Yesterday, "Hot Search", the third movie starring Zhou Dongyu this year, was released.
If it is said that the previous "Winter" and "Parrot Killing" had a bad market response due to the unnecessary moaning of literary directors, but as the reputation director of "Breaking Silence" and "Maze of the Heart", Xin Yukun should always send Zhou Dongyu back. Altar?
As a result, it was not sent to the altar, but spitted out.
On the first day of its release, the box office of "Hot Search" was only 5.1 million, not even over 10 million.
On the second day today, "Goodbye, Li Cola" starring Wu Jing was directly hit on her head after it was released. Although she did not win "Walking Through the Angry Sea", her results in these two days were not good. It's hard to calculate -
"Hot Search" has hit the street again.
Of course, after watching "Hot Search", what I regret more is not Zhou Dongyu, but Xin Yukun.
Is this really his handwriting?
Not everyone can be Chen Sicheng
Different from the previous two works, "Hot Search" is a topical movie. As the name suggests, it refers to the "hot search" on the Internet rankings. It mainly tells the story of the new media era. Information PR war.
Xin Yukun chose this theme, obviously to arouse resonance with the audience through "topics" and cater to the market to the maximum extent, which is exactly the same as Chen Sicheng's approach.
wants to make money.
But the problem is that you may not be able to do what Chen Sicheng can do.
This film stars Zhou Dongyu, Song Yang, and Yuan Hong. The story is very simple.
Chen Miao (played by Zhou Dongyu) is a self-media editor and runs a self-media company with He Yan (played by Song Yang).
One day, Chen Miao suddenly wanted to write about a school bullying incident. Although He Yan tried his best to stop it, Chen Miao still mobilized everyone to write and publish it. After the
article was published, the topic became a hot search topic and caused unprecedented discussion.
Although the company has made a profit, what no one knows is that the reason why Chen Miao wrote about this incident was entirely to meet the entrustment of the investor Yue Peng (played by Yuan Hong), so as to achieve cooperation between the two parties.
At the beginning of the movie, the character Chen Miao was given a comprehensive three-dimensional display.
She is resolute, dictatorial, ambitious, and capable of action. She masters self-media and has become a beacon in the new media circle.
However, such a big figure in the media easily listened to others' slander and casually wrote a social report without conducting any investigation.
If there is no accident, there will be an accident.
Yue Peng is taking advantage of Chen Miao. Although the girl "Zhang Xiaosui" in the article had a dispute with her classmate and pushed her downstairs, she was actually the victim.
It turned out that Zhang Xiaosui was a student at a training institution, which was affiliated with the Hengshi Group where Yue Peng worked.
One day, the organization held a social practice event. The CEO of Hengshi Group fell in love with Zhang Xiaosui, coaxed him into the office and raped her.
Afterwards, Zhang Xiaosui was so distraught that before she could call the police, she was "framed" by her classmates and tricked into taking indecent photos in a hotel.
Zhang Xiaosui approached her classmate to question her, and she got emotional and started pushing her. It was captured by surveillance cameras and cut into a "bullying video."
After Yue Peng watched the video of just a few seconds for Chen Miao, she firmly believed that Zhang Xiaosui was a bully and wrote the article.
A media boss can write an irresponsible article with just a few seconds of video.
Isn't this a perfect negative case?
At first, I thought the character played by Zhou Dongyu was a villain, but I didn't expect that she had performed another sexy act.
Zhang Xiaosui jumped off the building. Before jumping off the building, he wrote a handwritten letter and gave it to Chen Miao. The letter contained the experiences that Zhang Xiaosui had suffered before. After reading the letter, Chen Miao was in great mourning -
On the spot again I vow to seek justice for Chen Miao!
I couldn't stand watching this movie at the beginning.
what the hell.
You are a self-media boss. Earlier, you called Zhang Xiaosui a bully because of a few seconds of video. Later, after reading a letter, you immediately wanted to defend Zhang Xiaosui and vowed to bring down the CEO of Hengshi Group.
Sister, do you have any ideas?
Can you check the information, first identify the authenticity, and then take sides?
Didn't you just make the same mistake? Why don’t you have a long memory?
In fact, when I saw this, I still felt a little lucky. Maybe this was a plot designed by the screenwriter to satirize the bad habit of some media to follow the wind and rain, and our protagonist is definitely not such a person.
But what I didn’t expect was that Chen Miao would really join the team!
One second ago, she was still a career ambitioner who was desperate for traffic, winning contracts worth millions in minutes.
The next second, she suddenly became a martyr who burned herself for justice, fighting for the truth one by one, even giving up the company.
This character twist is harder than my kidney stones.
Then, Chen Miao cut ties with the company and investors and formed a temporary team to fight against the self-media army under the group boss.
Their main problem is that there is no evidence that the boss violated Zhang Xiaosui.
Yes, there is no evidence.
and so on!
There is no evidence. How do you believe in Zhang Xiaosui? What if she is Xianzi? There are so many things these days that one short essay can ruin someone's entire life.
Don't ask, asking is a woman's sixth sense. After
revealed their identities to each other, the turn-based mode began in the second act of the movie.
The villain first sent a lawyer's letter to sever contact with Chen Miao, and then published photos of Zhang Xiaosui taken in the hotel to discredit the client.
Chen Miao immediately contacted Zhang Xiaosui's mother to express sympathy, and found several other girls who had also been victimized.
Then, the villain released a recording with Zhang Xiaosui's mother, saying that they took the opportunity to make money and throw dirty water. They also pointed the finger at Chen Miao and painted Chen Miao out of context to portray Chen Miao as a careerist who used this matter to threaten his superiors.
In short, everyone who often uses information software knows the plot of this war. It is nothing more than that -
is a real hammer!
reversed!
Everyone has come to join the team!
After Chen Miao inexplicably became the teacher of justice, the next 2/3 of the movie was a battle of public opinion between the pros and cons. You punch, I kick. The rules are clear, there is back and forth, and the fighting is called A lively one.
just doesn’t look good.
In the end, the villain relied on his voice advantage and control over Chen Miao's personal information to finally get the match point. Chen Miao was already a street rat, and everyone was shouting to beat her up.
Seeing that there are 20 minutes left in the movie, how should the plot end?
The screenwriter made a stroke of his pen - add a plug-in!
At this time, Zhang Xiaosui’s classmate, that transparent person who always glanced at her but just put on a pose and left, finally implemented her tool attributes.
She found a piece of secretly photographed information in Yue Peng's office, which detailed the boss's criminal records in the past few years. She took it and gave it to Chen Miao, who gave it to the police.
is finished!
After more than an hour of tossing, give me a deus ex machina?
Why did Yue Peng secretly photograph his boss? Don’t ask. Asking is because men lack a sense of security.
You may also ask, why is the character played by Song Yang not introduced in the entire story?
because he is not important!
It doesn't matter if he is deleted or integrated with Yue Peng. I suspect that Xin Yukun is just to provide a job opportunity for his family.
As for Zhou Dongyu, although she has always wanted to find the attributes of a strong woman in her role, her appearance cannot carry the aura that can toughen the entire group.
Seeing her pretending to be a working woman, wearing high heels, a suit, and a wavy hair, there is always a sense of misplacement that she is wearing adult clothes by mistake.
What is even more surprising is the lines.
The character Chen Miao has a quick mind and is very precise in every word. However, Zhou Dongyu's lines are not only stuck together, but also have an inexplicable childish feeling. I always feel that she can't even believe this character herself. .
feels like watching a game of house.
Zhou Dongyu also admitted this problem in the interview.
In short, if you don’t understand the keywords such as new media and public relations and are interested, then "Hot Search" can be regarded as a learning class for new things.
But if you want to buy tickets to watch a movie, I advise everyone to be cautious.
will be furious.
