The first is investment. Wang Yifan can only invest himself, because no one would be willing to give him a singer to invest in movies.
Wu Tianxiong is different. He has already made his debut. Although the investment in "Withered Trees Every Spring" is not high, it looks like 20 to 30 million, but it is much higher than Wang Yifan's film.
Then there is the director. Needless to say, Wang Yifan is tender and can no longer be tender, but Wu Tianxiong is the best new director at the Golden Dragon Award.
In terms of the cast, the actor of "Lilac" is not as good as the male third of "Dead Tree Every Spring" in the eyes of Zhou Haiyang. This is evident.
Finally, in terms of distribution, there are only 500 theaters for "Lilac Flower", and there are very few publicity funds. However, "Withered Trees Every Spring" alone has more than 2,000 theaters, and people can even hold its premiere.
This is where the gap lies.
"Director Wang, I've met again. It's really the first time I've seen each other three days later." Wu Tianxiong looked at Wang Yifan with a complicated smile.
He really felt it. Who could have imagined that a month ago, the newcomer who didn't even know what the film maker was doing, has now become his own film's biggest competitor.
Yes, "Lilac" is a romance film, and "Dead Tree Every Spring" is also a romance film. It can be said that the two films are a natural competitive relationship, which is mainly reflected in the overlap of audience groups.
"Director Wu won the prize, but it's just a little trouble. Congratulations to Director Wu, I wish the film a big hit." Wang Yifan said with a smile.
"The truth?" Wu Tianxiong asked with a smile.
Instead, Wang Yifan was taken aback. However, Wu Tianxiong also made a joke, and immediately laughed and said, "Speaking of which, next, we are competitors, hahaha." He seemed quite calm.
After that, Wu Tianxiong sued and left.
"You said, is he really just joking?" Chen Xuebing blinked at Wang Yifan and asked.
"All right, he is telling the truth, "Withered Tree Every Spring" and "Lilac Flower" are indeed the most direct competitors." Wang Yifan said indifferently.
"Look, it's Zhou Haiyang! Do you think he will regret his original decision now?" After a while, Wu Tianxiong took the lead creators of "Dead Tree Every Spring" onto the stage, and Chen Xuebing saw Zhou Haiyang at first sight.
"It doesn't matter, such a person won't cooperate in the future. It's not guilty to be unhappy for him." Wang Yifan patted Chen Xuebing's hands.
"Well, he will definitely regret it!" Chen Xuebing was stubborn about Zhou Haiyang's affairs. At first, she wanted to help Wang Yifan with the results. Zhou Haiyang came to the end but released the crew pigeons. Well, what made Chen Xuebing uncomfortable the most was In Zhou Haiyang's eyes, the actor of "Lilac Flower" is actually inferior to a male number three with few scenes.
After some routine work, the film was officially screened.
Wang Yifan's visit this time didn't mean to inquire about the enemy.
Wu Tianxiong is not a purely commercial film director, and "Dead Tree Every Spring" is also not a highly commercialized film.
The film is about a year-long love, the so-called dead wood and spring, well, it is actually the love between the uncle and the big loli.
"Withered Trees Every Spring" is also not a movie with ups and downs. It is somewhat similar to "Lilac". It is a relatively ordinary daily life, and it breaks out in the end.
However, Wang Yifan frowned at the sight. He admired Wu Tianxiong. Why did he say that? Because the ending of "Withered Trees Every Spring" turned out to be a happy ending!
"How do you feel?" Wang Yifan asked Chen Xuebing on the side, no way, romantic movies, most of the time, the feeling of female audiences is really important, because they are the largest group of movie viewers.
"Lilac" is the same, the ratio of female audience to male audience is overwhelming.
Let's put it this way, maybe a group of female girlfriends will go to see "Lilac" together, but a group of men will definitely not choose to watch this kind of movie together.
"Not bad, Zhou Xing's acting skills are very good, much better than someone. It's just an extra annoying face." Chen Xuebing stuck out his tongue naughty.
"What's this like, I'm asking about the movie, how do you feel?" Wang Yifan rolled his eyes and asked.
"It feels, it's okay, nothing is outstanding, but there is no problem, right?" Chen Xuebing thought for a while and said.
Wang Yifan nodded. It is true, but if this is the case, there is no need to worry too much.
Looking at those romance films, the happy endings, to be honest, there are not many successes.
The biggest problem is the lack of color.
After "Lilac" had a box office of more than 62 million in 7 days in the first week, the box office on Thursday remained stable, with 1,238 kings, pushing the box office to more than 74 million.
Moving towards the 100 million mark very steadily.
The best film of the Beichuan Film Festival "Dead Tree Every Spring" was released on Friday.
There are more than two thousand theaters that open paintings, and in terms of publicity, it can also be said to be a rolling level.
At the same time, a large number of black fans suddenly appeared on the Internet on the "Lilac Flower" side. The most intuitive manifestation is on the audio-visual network. Although "Lilac" was released for a week before, the score has declined, but it still remained at around 8. However, on Friday, "Lilac" began to appear on a large scale. Bad reviews.
"The story doesn't have any highlights, it's an old routine, just shoot the MV directly, but I want to make a movie to cheat money!"
"It's no wonder that a singer is a director. There is no sense of substitution at all."
"The overbearing president and Cinderella's stalk, the routine is too old and not new."
"Since I chose to refuse, why write a letter, purely for sensationalism!"
Anyway, it was all kinds of slander, and the score on the audio-visual online of "Lilac" has also dropped a lot, directly below 8 points. Although the number of ratings has exceeded 10,000, it still dropped by 0.4 points, leaving only 7.6 points. The strength of the opponent's suppression.
This is commercial competition. Even on the surface, Wu Tianxiong even invited Wang Yifan to participate in the premiere, but the actions that should be taken are not at all.
On the other hand, "Dead Tree Every Spring" has always been rated high on the audio-visual network, with a total score of more than 9 points, a high score of 9.2 points. Obviously, the other party not only blacked "Lilac" but also brushed his own score.
In fact, these are all conventional routines. Before "Lilac" did not encounter such a situation, because "Lilac" was not eye-catching at the beginning, and later came up, but "Flying Dragon Battleship" and other movies are actually the same as "Lilac". The competitive relationship of "Flower" is not so straightforward. After all, the genres are different, and several other films have been released for a few weeks, so no action was taken.
After all, it costs money to discredit others.
The price/performance ratio is too low, so "Lilac" will be more smooth.
But now it is different. "Withered Trees Every Spring" and "Lilac" will be direct competitors.
PS:
I heard that voting collection can make people feel extremely comfortable, why not try it?
