"I said I wanted to make a movie. Some people were worried and some had doubts, but I did it!"

"I said I wanted to make a movie with a box office of over 100 million. Some people questioned it and some laughed at it, but I did it!"

"I said that I would continue to make classic movies. Some people were confused and some were upset, but I still did it!"

Yang Ming stood in front with a microphone in his hand, his expression firm and confident, and with the unique vitality of a young man. He faced the guests who came to attend the premiere and announced his success wildly.

Everyone below did not expect that Yang Ming would say such a harsh and unreasonable opening statement.

This is not like the formulaic opening of hello, me, hello, everyone in an ordinary premiere. This is clearly a mobilization order on the eve of a war!

Everyone looked at the young man in front of him in shock.

At this moment, a set of data suddenly appeared on the screen behind Yang Ming, attracting everyone's attention and eyes.

"The local box office of "My Sassy Girl" is 340 million, the foreign box office is 270 million, and the total box office is 610 million!" Yang Ming held the microphone, pointed at the data on the screen behind him, and spoke loudly.

At this moment, he was the center of attention.

Although the miraculous success of the movie "My Sassy Girl" has long been amazed by the world, at this moment, Yang Ming once again reported the data, once again shocking the hearts of everyone present.

This is not to show off or show off. The purpose of Yang Ming's move is to tell everyone that he can do it and that he has succeeded.

The controversy surrounding Yang Ming's film career has been discussed endlessly in major media reports, and there are many people with ulterior motives behind it.

Although he won a total box office of more than 600 million through the movie "My Sassy Girl" and ranked third in last year's Chinese movie box office rankings, his status in the film industry has not improved.

How many.

Because he is so young, no matter where he is or what industry he is in, it is a very normal phenomenon to rank based on seniority.

The film industry is no exception.

Especially since he has achieved such great results, many people feel unhappy, so the controversy about him has never stopped in the media.

At this time, the data on the screen changed again, and the one data displayed above was: "37 million!"

When everyone below saw this data without any prompts, they were all puzzled. They didn't know what this data meant, and they all looked at Yang Ming with questioning eyes.

However, many people have guessed the true meaning of this data, with incredible looks on their faces.

"As of now, the data just compiled shows that the first-day box office of the movie "Girlfriends We Chased Together in Those Years" has reached 37 million, and this is not the final box office data!" Yang Ming said calmly

The publication of this number means.

——Wow

When everyone heard Yang Ming's words, there was an uproar, and many people even whispered to each other, discussing the impact of this data.

37 million. This figure is not far from the standard for first-tier blockbusters. In the Chinese film industry, the current standard for first-tier blockbusters is a first-day box office of 50 million.

The data announced by Yang Ming is not the final data, so what will the final result be? This is so amazing.

"I want to say that no matter what others think or evaluate, I just want to make my own movies. I always believe that as long as the audience finds a good-looking movie, it is a good movie! Thank you everyone!" Yang Ming bowed after saying this.

Stepped down.

This sentence made many people present look at Yang Ming with strange eyes.

"Alas!" The old dean sighed leisurely. He knew very well why Yang Ming said this.

In recent years, Chinese films have been greatly impacted by the Western film industry in Hollywood, which has caused fierce disputes between commercial films and art films. As an academic place, the Yanjing Film Institute has also been directly and strongly affected.

The debate about commercial art in the academy has never ended.

In fact, if it weren't for the old dean who is now suppressing all kinds of voices, the college would probably have fallen out long ago.

Last year, Yang Ming made a lot of money at the box office with his movie "My Sassy Girl", which was very popular. However, many outside media did not think very highly of the movie. They thought it subverted the tradition and was just sensationalism and relying on gaining attention.

will get such high box office.

Even at the Yanjing Film Academy, many teachers criticized this, thinking that Yang Ming did not look like a student from the Yanjing Film Academy, especially after that, many senior students

The teachers of the college directly requested the old dean to expel the student who often took leave and missed classes.

If the old dean had not turned back these proposals in the name of academic freedom, who knows what kind of trouble the teachers in the college would have caused!

"Is this the path you want to take?" the old dean thought silently in his heart.

Although Yang Ming did not clarify his views, the old dean vaguely analyzed Yang Ming's actions and analyzed the path Yang Ming wanted to take in the film industry in the future, and Yang Ming said, "Only movies that the audience thinks are good will be made."

It’s a good movie!” This concept has been mentioned not once.

Last time in Cao Heyi's class, Yang Ming was forced to give a speech, and he expressed this concept at that time.

This was already determined.

"It seems that you, a closed disciple, are really a Sun Wukong!" Li Canghai smiled and shook his head and muttered to the old dean, "This is the rhythm of causing trouble in the heaven!"

As an older generation of filmmakers, Li Canghai naturally doesn't agree with Yang Ming's concept, but he has a very broad vision and knows that if his country's films do not reform and take measures to change, they will become more and more alienated from the world.

the further away.

If you fall behind, you will be beaten. This is a wise saying. Especially in the past few years, Hollywood blockbusters have ravaged the Chinese film market, and Chinese local films have been losing ground. No one has come forward to turn the tide. This cruel reality is faced by everyone.

in front of people.

Not long ago, "So Close", which had high hopes from all filmmakers, was defeated by Hollywood's "Super Troopers" and was unable to fight back. The box office results were even worse. This is what happened just now, and it is still vivid in my mind.

ah!

Therefore, even though Li Canghai didn't agree with Yang Ming's ideas in his heart, he still maintained a restrained attitude and didn't say anything more. He had to wait for the final result before making a final decision.

When the old dean heard Li Canghai's joke, he uncharacteristically did not make any argument. Instead, he fell into deep thought and bowed his head in silence.

When Li Canghai saw the old dean's appearance, he didn't say anything more. He raised his head and looked forward, waiting for the movie to start. He thought to himself: Boy, let me see what you call a good movie.

At this time, Meng Su, who was sitting at the guest table, also had a thoughtful expression on his face, as if he was thinking about something more important.

As a well-known film critic in the Chinese film industry, Meng Su is naturally saddened by the invasion of the Chinese film market by Hollywood in recent years, but as a film critic, he cannot change anything.

For this reason, he can only remind the film companies of the shortcomings in every movie they make through sharp and mean reviews.

Unfortunately, he gained very little from what he did and did not attract the attention of any film companies. In order to prevent him from speaking out some unpleasant film reviews, many film companies secretly sent people to send him money in an attempt to silence him.

, this really made him sad.

In the past few years, there have been widespread rumors that Meng Su reduces the number of movies he reviews every year because of his poor health. In fact, it is not because of the movie companies that he is angry.

I really hate that iron cannot become steel!

However, this young man now gave Meng Su a very different feeling.

Let’s wait until we watch this movie to say anything else.

A moment later, as the lights went out, "The Girl We Chased Together in Those Years" was officially screened.

The opening animation is still the dream animation of the little girl fishing on the moon that people have gradually become familiar with from the movie "My Sassy Girl". It is very beautiful and full of meaning.

"Factory logo!" When the screen dimmed, Meng Su put on his glasses, then took out a pen and notebook, and began to draw on it. Although it was dark, so many years of experience made it possible for him not to look at the notebook.

You can also write down your own movie-watching experiences on it without any hindrance.

As the picture appeared on the screen, subtitles began to appear.

"Produced by Oriental DreamWorks Pictures!"

"Yang Ming Movie!"

"Starring: Yang Ming, Chen Yiran!"

...

When she saw her name appearing in the starring column on the screen, Chen Yiran, who was sitting below, looked at the big screen with excitement. If it weren't for the fact that it was a public place, she would have wanted to scream with excitement.

The plot of the story starts from a flashback, where a group of friends are attending a girl's wedding.

Then, Yang Ming, wearing a school uniform, with a youthful face and a wild smile, appeared on the screen riding a bicycle.

"This is Xu Bochun. He has been my best friend since junior high school. Xu Bochun is always having sex, so his nickname is '****'!"

——Wow!

When they saw this plot, everyone at the scene couldn't help but exclaimed. They didn't expect that Yang Ming would use such a dirty joke to introduce the characters at the beginning.

In particular, the scenes of Xu Bochun riding a bicycle and having sex were all photographed by Yang Ming, which made many people very uncomfortable with seeing it.

Whether it was the old dean, Li Canghai, or Meng Su, they couldn't help but frown deeply when they saw this scene. They didn't understand why Yang Ming would use such a sexually suggestive way to express this.

plot.

Meng Su also wrote the word "sex" in his notebook, and then put a big question mark at the back.

Fortunately, the introduction of the characters in the plot at the end is very normal and on the right track. It is not introduced with pornographic jokes like the introduction of Xu Bochun.

However, the slightly bland introduction of high school life clips later made many older people a little distracted. After all, the high school life captured by Yang Ming did not make them feel any sense of immersion.

Because the youth of Yang Ming's age is not in the same era as theirs.

As a film critic, Meng Su often watches various types of movies, which are relatively good. Looking at the not-so-great beginning, he frowned. Could it be that this movie also had a first-day box office of 37 million?
