Feng Xiaogang's new work "Only Yun Knows", why is the box office not shocked?

If this film was made by a Japanese director, or a Korean director, or a Taiwanese director, or a new literary film director, it would definitely touch a large group of literary and artistic youths and be praised by them. The pictures of

are beautiful and beautiful, the plot is plain but timeless, and the world is like a fairy tale. Almost every character that appears in it is so kind and beautiful, as if it is the Chinese version of "Heidi and Grandpa", just focusing on Changed from "family affection" to "love". It is a pity that

was filmed by director Feng Xiaogang, who once scolded "junk viewers" and was despised by literary youth and film critics. Douban score was reduced by at least 2 points.

Because the audience of Director Feng's previous films, those who are used to the smell of hutong strings and city fireworks, will not like this type of film.

And the vast majority of people who like this type of film don't like Director Feng at all...

is a pity.

Of course, the New Zealand tourism department must be very satisfied. There are only a few main actors in the film

. They talk to each other. The cost of shooting is extremely low. Coupled with their sponsorship,

must have no pressure to pay back at the box office. No wonder it dared to release the 132-minute version. In fact, this film is completely It can be edited to less than 90 minutes, in order to strive for a higher row of films and a higher box office, but the slow rhythm of the film becomes compact, or... it does not conform to the overall tone.

Of course, another important reason why the box office of this film will not be too high:

time will soon enter 2020, if

from the perspective of many young people today, you can see two peers with Beijing registered permanent residence in a foreign country. In a small town, I opened a small restaurant, worked day and night, and spent 15 years with each other. Although there are cars, houses and dogs, and the scenery is empty and picturesque, I still feel that this life is a bit monotonous and boring. It's hard to resonate.

However, if you put the time back 10 years ago, 15 years ago, 20 years ago, the "Sui Dongfeng" and "Luo Yun" at that time would definitely be the winners of life who envy others, and the pride of their parents.

still remember that at that time, too many people regarded studying hard, studying abroad, and immigrating as the highest life goals for themselves and their children. And how can they imagine the rapid development of the motherland?

What kind of strength is China today? Our national strength has long been leaps and bounds. In 2018, China’s total industrial output value accounted for 30% of the world’s total, which is the sum of the three major powers including the United States (17%), Japan (7%) and Germany (6%). It is also among the European and American powers. While continuing to "de-industrialize", our total industrial output value continues to increase rapidly.

The Bohai Sea Rim, the Yangtze River Delta, and the Pearl River Delta have become the manufacturing and economic centers of the world. In more than 100 important manufacturing fields, China ranks first in the world and is a veritable "world factory".

In another 10 years, China's industrial share will account for more than 60% of the world's total output value, while the second-ranked United States will drop to 10% of its industrial share. What does this mean?

Although many "old, young, borderline and poor areas" are still very backward, although the huge base of 1.4 billion people makes our average gdp not high enough,

, but today’s “Sui Dongfeng” and “Luo Yun” in Beijing are sure I won't consider going to a New Zealand town to open a restaurant for a lifetime as my life goal.

At the end of the movie, the hero's prototype, isn't it the same as returning home early to start a new career?

So, this is a film that the author feels very comfortable, but it is indeed a film that was made at least 10 years late, which is a pity.
