Chapter 252 50 million

In fact, "The Breaking Drummer" itself is a rather dark story, not as inspiring as everyone says, and to some extent, it is anti-inspiring.

However, Zhang Ran remained neutral in the movie and did not give his own conclusions. The protagonist of the movie finally surpassed himself and reached a state that he had not had before. It is nothing wrong to say that it is an inspirational movie. There are a thousand Hamlets in the eyes of a thousand people. After a work is shot, it is no longer exclusive to the author. Everyone has the right to interpret it.

The comment from netizen "Lan Chengde" is very interesting. He wrote: "I think "Explosive Drummer" is the real inspiration because it is the darkest. Only when people pass through the boundless darkness can they become brave and strong.

If you want to win, you can exchange your life. If you want to improve yourself, you must start from now on by riding alone.

I may be a bit cruel, but the possibilities of the future and the secrets of life are hidden in these pains. This is not about pursuing suffering. We overcome suffering not because we like it, but because I cannot escape it.

If I saw this film before the college entrance examination, I would definitely die and be admitted to Peking University!

If I saw this film before falling in love, I would definitely die and would not be tired of being with my girlfriend all day when I should strive for the most!

I believe that everyone who has worked hard for the college entrance examination, work, and dreams will be moved to this movie. I hope that all students in the third year of high school will watch this movie, which can provide you with the motivation to keep moving forward!”

This post resonated with many people. In the end, netizens voted for "Top Ten Inspirational Movies". After the results came out, many people forwarded it, which caused a great response on the Internet. Instantly, more than ten years later, this post was still being reposted. "Explosive Drummer" always ranks first in inspirational films.

Many teachers thought the movie was very good after watching "The Breaking Drummer" and recommended it to their students. Some schools even organized senior high school students to watch "The Breaking Drummer" together to motivate students and let them do their best in the last half year and strive for their future.

In a theater in the Magic City, the reporter accidentally met the young writer Han Han. He just came out of the screening hall of "The Breaking Drummer", and the reporter conducted a simple interview with him. Let him talk about his views on "The Breaking Drummer".

Han Han was very disgusted with exam-oriented education, and he had many sarcastic sarcasm and sarcasm for education and teachers, and some of them were quite mean. The reporter naturally believed that Han Han would definitely sarcasm for the movie.

But what surprised the reporter was that Han Han sang a hymn to "Explosive Drummer": "This movie is quite good. It is much better than Zhang Yimou's "Hero". I hope Chinese movies can prosper and investors can give more opportunities to young people. The audience needs such directors. Chinese people are actually very imaginative and can also make good movies. There are shots of slapping the face in the trailer of the movie, but unfortunately the main movie was cut off, which is much weaker. I hope the Radio and Television Bureau will broaden its thinking and take it a little bit. You should promote the development of Chinese movies rather than limit the development of movies!"

The reporter also said: "Some media say that movies are too extreme, which is an embodiment of Zhang Ran's fascist thought. What do you think?

Han Han sarcastically said: "The key to the movie is good. I'm here to entertain you. "The Breaking Drummer" is very good, that's enough. Now it's an era, why do you still put a hat on it at any time? In fact, Zhang Ran did not give his own point of view in the movie. He remained neutral. Any interpretation is the audience's own business. I think it's the fascist who says he is a fascist!"

Recently, many media have compared "Breaking Drummer" and "Hero" to criticize Zhang Yimou, so a reporter interviewed Zhang Yimou and asked him to talk about his views on "Breaking Drummer". Zhang Yimou said politely: "Although Zhang Ran studied movies in the United States, I think he is very localized. He combined his own characteristics, his understanding of this region, and his understanding of China's national conditions and people's conditions. I think "Breaking Drummer" is doing a good job."

With the emergence of various social phenomena and various voices, "Breaking Drummer" continues to maintain its exposure, its popularity continues to heat up, and the box office is further rising.

February 13, the day before Valentine's Day, there are 4 new movies released, the romantic comedy "Very Romantic" directed by Forrest Gump, starring Tong Dawei, Xiao Song Jia and Li Xiaoran; the romantic comedy "Love You No Regret" starring Shin Eun-kyung, the heroine of "My Wife is a Big Boss" and the most handsome Korean man Zheng Junhao, and the American love comedy "Love You No Regret" starring Rishi Witherspoon; and the love film "A hundred years of love" directed by Johnnie To and starring Louis Koo and Sammi Cheng.

Since four new films were released, these four films themselves are romantic comedies for Valentine's Day; and "Breaking Drummer" does not match the atmosphere of Valentine's Day, so the filming of "Breaking Drummer" has dropped sharply to 22%, lower than 24% of "A Hundred Years of Love", ranking second.

But when the box office was released on Valentine's Day, "The Breaking Drummer" shattered countless people's lenses.

"Explosive Drummer" surpassed the many heroes, surpassing the box office of 413, and successfully won the box office championship on Valentine's Day. The total box office reached 4,784, while the second-ranked "Happy Hundred Years" had only 2.58 million box office!

Both the media and the insiders were surprised. "The Breaking Drummer" has nothing to do with Valentine's Day, and it is even a bit anti-love, because the male protagonist of the movie thinks that being with the heroine is wasting time and giving up love in order to pursue her dreams can be said to be a breakup movie!

Who would have thought that such a movie would be the leader in Valentine's Day and would overwhelm many romantic movies?

I can only say that "Breaking Drummer" is so popular. Many couples walked into the cinema and bought tickets directly when they saw "Breaking Drummer". They never considered what the content of the movie was.

On the 15th, the single-day box office of "Explosive Drummer" reached 2.63 million, with a total cumulative box office of 50.47 million, successfully exceeding 50 million!

Given the performance of "Breaking Drummer" these days, everyone knows that it is only a matter of time before it exceeds 50 million, but they didn't expect it to come so quickly. The entire film and television industry is in full swing!

At the beginning, not many people were optimistic about "The Breaking Drummer" because the schedule of the movie was relatively cold, and there were "Harry Potter and the Room of Secret", "The Mouse Falls in Love with the Cat" and many new films. Even those who are most optimistic about this movie box office believe that the box office can reach up to 30 million! Unexpectedly, "The Breaking Drummer" defeated powerful opponents with its excellent quality and high reputation, and then ran forward like a happy ending.

Everyone has only two performances about "Breaking Drummer" to describe madness!

Apart from being crazy, it's crazy!

A box office of 50 million in ten years is nothing. Many movies can exceed this number in a single box office. But in 2003, this is really an amazing result!

Feng Xiaogang has always been known for his high box office. However, in 2000, Feng Xiaogang's "The Endless" had a box office of only 33 million; in 2001, the box office was only 43 million. In this era, the box office was as much as more than 50 million, and it was locked in the top three in the annual box office!

"Breaking Drummer" is a small-budget film with the director being a newcomer. The actors are also mainly newcomers, and the box office can actually exceed 50 million. This result is really shocking. More importantly, although "Breaking Drummer" is not as popular as the second week, it is still much stronger than other movies!

According to the current state, there should be a box office of 20 million, or even more!

On February 16, "Explosive Drummer" held a celebration banquet with a box office of over 50 million at the Beijing Hotel.

In fact, the celebration banquet of the movie is a means of publicity, and it is the same as the box office fraud. When the audience hears that the box office is so high, they think the movie is good and they have the idea of ​​seeing it.

Now that "Explosive Drummer" has achieved such a high box office, Zhang Ran naturally wants to run a big and special one and promote it well!

At 6:30 pm, the Beijing Hotel was filled with people, and headsets were on the door. The guard in a black suit looked cool and powerful. He looked very similar to the bodyguard in a Hollywood blockbuster, and felt very professional.

When Zhang Ran and Zhang Jingchu walked into the club, the crew members and guests all came inside. Everyone saw Zhang Ran coming to say hello. Some even joked and asked Zhang Ran if he was preparing a red envelope.

Most members of the crew will follow Zhang Ran to continue shooting a movie, and there is no need to say anything. Only Ning Hao will film "The Sad One" next. He has been busy with preparations during this period, and Zhang Ran has not seen anyone. Now when he sees Ning Hao, he asks: "How is the movie ready?"

"The preliminary work is almost done, Jing Jian has been completed, the actor has been selected, and now we are making final preparations. It is expected that the filming will be started in early April, but unfortunately you went to the United States to shoot movies at that time, otherwise you would like to ask me to check it!" Ning Hao said modestly. This is not only because Zhang Ran is an investor in the movie, but more importantly, he really learned a lot from Zhang Ran. He treated Zhang Ran as a teacher.

April is almost the time when the ** breaks out. Although at Zhang Ran's suggestion, the filming site of "The Sad" was set in Rongcheng, far away from the ** hardest hit area Peiping, there are still risks. He reminded: "You have enough directing skills, but you are a little lacking in rhythm. Just pay a little attention. By the way, the ** in Guangdong are in a very big trouble now. It is said that it is very contagious. There are many crew members and it is easy to be contagious. You must be careful! The crew must be equipped with a doctor, and the money you should spend must be spent!"

Ning Hao nodded: "I know, you should be careful when you are abroad!"

Soon, the celebration banquet officially began. Qiu Yuanxu picked up the microphone and said a few words. When the crowd calmed down, he said: "Dear guests and friends! Welcome everyone to the celebration banquet of "Explosive Drummer". There are many guests here today, and we are deeply honored. In the past half month, "Explosive Drummer" has created a miracle and achieved a box office of 50.47 million yuan. We have reason to believe that this miracle will continue! Next, please say a few words to Director Zhang Ran."

The microphone was handed over to Zhang Ran, who shook the collar of the suit, smiled and walked onto the stage.

The reporter below pressed the shutter crazily, and the flash light immediately flashed.

Zhang Ran smiled and said, "Actually, there is nothing to say. It is not my credit for success in the movie, but for all the crew members. Without everyone's efforts, there would be no movie, let alone this celebration banquet. A brother just asked me if I had prepared a red envelope, but I was really not prepared. But I didn't forget what I said. I said I would give out 20% of the profit as a dividend reward for everyone. After the movie was released, I got the money from the theaters and I would make a book to register and send the money I should send to everyone. I won't say much nonsense. Today, everyone will not be drunk!"

"Long live Director Zhang!" The crew members who came to attend the celebration banquet clapped and cheered downstairs. (To be continued.)
Chapter completed!
