avoids the Spring Festival box office war, " Flowers of Thousand Bones " also hits the street, and has nothing to do with Chen Duling is not as good as Zhao Liying
Entering the twelfth lunar month every year, major events in the entertainment industry focus on the CCTV Spring Festival Gala on New Year's Eve, as well as the New Year's Eve The prime movie period during the Spring Festival holiday begins on the first day of the Lunar New Year. The hot spots before this are all about the Spring Festival Gala rehearsals and the official announcements of various movies to warm up the publicity for the holiday entertainment feast.
The Spring Festival period in recent years has been a fierce battle for the movie box office. Competition has become fierce, and this year is no exception. Not only is Jia Ling's second directorial work, it has gathered a large number of stars such as Zhang Xiaofei, Lei Jiayin, Jia Ling, Yang Zi , Ma Li , etc. Jia Ling, who directed and acted herself, also raised the suspense of losing 100 pounds, and Zhang Yimou's big movie The director's movie " Article 20 ", with a large number of stars such as Zhao Liying, Gao Ye, Lei Jiayin and Ma Li joining the cast, has more to watch, as well as Shen Teng's "Flying Life 2" and Peng Yuchang's "Let's Shake the Sun Together" As well as Andy Lau's "Mr. Red Carpet" and other movies, the lineup is dazzling.
With so many star-studded blockbusters gathering together, this year’s Spring Festival box office war is fierce. It is estimated that not many new films will dare to officially announce their participation in the war. However, there are so many movies in stock and the schedule is so limited, so they can only be released before the Spring Festival. The movie version of "A Thousand Bones" made such a choice.
But making such a choice is definitely helpless. This is a double-edged sword. The movie schedule before the Spring Festival is definitely the darkness before dawn and is destined to be depressed. However, if you can avoid the squeeze of blockbusters and hit movies, there may be a glimmer of hope. In fact, during this period, many people are preparing to celebrate the festival and have time to watch movies and entertain themselves. So it mostly depends on the movie itself.
But "Flower Thousand Bones" chose the schedule, the subject matter and the starring role. It was all about choosing the tiger in the mountain, and it was doomed to have a tragic ending.
Not to mention that it is easy to fall into the trap in the off-season before the Spring Festival. The choice of theme and lineup of "A Thousand Bones of Flowers" is also a bold risk, and the tragedy is expected.
Originally, although it was to take advantage of the halo of the TV series "A Thousand Bones of Flowers", it is difficult to adapt the TV series into a movie, and this fairy tale theme is not suitable for the tone of the movie. The reputation and box office were not good before. Therefore, the fans of the previous drama would not pay for the movie, and the producers took advantage of the lonely popularity.
Secondly, the cast of the movie "A Thousand Bones of Flowers", from Chen Duling to Mao Zijun, etc., although good-looking, has neither popularity nor traffic advantage, nor strength to attract attention, so it is impossible to have a box office.
Unexpectedly, many people have not watched the movie "A Thousand Bones", but its popularity is not bad, because netizens and the industry are laughing at it. After a few days of release, it only had a box office of more than 4 million. In the end, it is estimated that It is difficult to break through tens of millions. This data looks very bad now. Moreover, it is said that the investment in this movie exceeded 100 million, which can be said to be a blood loss.
Of course, the lead actor Chen Duling cannot bear all the responsibility for this tragic situation. The director, screenwriter, producer, and investors are all responsible. But even if the director comes out to apologize, the overall situation has been decided, and it will not help. Even if Zhao Liying, the lead actor in the drama version, helps promote it, there won't be any splash.
I can only say that the investors were wrong from the beginning, and they should not take advantage of the popularity. In other words, even if Zhao Liying is invited to star, the box office of this movie will not be optimistic, so Zhao Liying will never come to Muddy Waters. The movie version of "A Thousand Bones of Flowers" is a subject that is customized by drama fans. Without this soil, it is doomed to fail.
So even if the movie version of "A Thousand Bones" wants to gain popularity at the beginning and invites Zhao Liying, Zhao Liying will never go. Now Zhao Liying has a clear positioning and no longer blindly relies on traffic to cut leeks. Her previous films have received average reviews at the box office, such as "The Kingdom of Women" and "Riding the Wind and Waves".Nowadays, Zhao Liying's TV dramas are gradually losing traffic and focusing on quality, and the same is true for movies. Therefore, for the sake of good works and directors, they will not hesitate to play a supporting role for Zhao Liying in director Chen Kexin's new work, and to play a supporting role for Ma Li in Zhang Yimou's new work. They don't care about their position or status, just for good works. Only by honing your acting skills can you gain a foothold in the film industry and go further and better.
