After the movie ended, there was no applause immediately.
Very normal.
For this ending, it would be strange if the audience could applaud immediately.
Yue Guan thought about the movie carefully.
Let's talk about it. In fact, Xu Ke's story is quite complete, which is a bit beyond Yue Guan's expectations.
Yue Guan never thought that Xu Ke could tell a story so completely. From beginning to end, everything was basically explained clearly and the audience could understand everything. This was an unexpected surprise.
But finally, there was a twist at the end.
Dongfang Bubai did not join the Sun Moon God Sect by defeating Ren Woxing head-on, but won without a fight.
All the efforts that had been made before seemed to have turned into a joke in an instant.
So much psychological construction, my little brother, the suffering of that night, the pain of wielding the knife, the anxiety of rushing to Huashan, and the impatient and high-spirited return from Huashan to Heimu Cliff...
All of this seemed like a joke in front of Ren Woxing who finally went crazy.
This ending, in terms of reputation and structure, is definitely beneficial to the movie. It suddenly changes the movie from an ordinary hero's rise to a highly satirical movie, sublimating the theme.
The judges of the film festival love this tone, including many literary youths, who particularly like this ending.
But Yue Guan estimates that the audience who normally rushes to watch a martial arts movie may not like it.
The plot of the movie has a lot of foreshadowing for the final battle between Dongfang Bubai and Ren Woxing, which has raised the audience's expectations to this point.
Then, it directly gave the audience an unexpected ending without having to fight.
This is a plus in the eyes of the judges.
But in the minds of ordinary viewers, this ending may be a bad ending...
What the audience expects are special effects and exciting fighting scenes, not a satire on Dongfang Invincible.
The audience is assuming the perspective of Dongfang Bubai. How can the audience be happy with this arrangement
When Yue Guan was thinking this, applause began to ring out from the scene, which was a little sparse. It was completely different from the scenes at the premieres of the previous films that Yue Guan had filmed.
This scene was expected by Xu Ke and the other creators, and they were not surprised either.
Chen Kun next to Yue Guan let out a sigh of relief.
"Yue Guan, how about this ending?" Chen Kun looked at Yue Guan expectantly.
Yue Guan thought for a while and said politely: "It should be to the taste of those netizens."
Yue Guan estimates that the rating of this drama will not be low.
Netizens who like this kind of twist ending are generally the kind of netizens who are particularly active on the Internet.
They just like unexpected endings, and they don't like mediocre movies at all.
Chen Kun didn't hear Yue Guan's subtext. When he heard Yue Guan say this, Chen Kun felt relieved and smiled on his face: "If you say that, then it should be stable. In fact, this movie is what I am most satisfied with." The ending scene.”
Yue Guan: "..."
Come on, this is also a literary youth.
This is not surprising.
Chen Kun often acts in literary films, so it's normal to like this kind of tone.
Yue Guan only hopes that ordinary audiences can also like this tune.
Otherwise, the box office of this drama is not expected to be particularly high.
Xu Ke and Chen Kun, the main creators, were quickly invited to the stage. As usual, they began to tell the behind-the-scenes stories of making this movie.
Then according to the process, we entered the stage of mutual business promotion.
The host quickly asked about Yue Guan.
"Yue Guan, did you write the script of "The Swordsman: The Unbeaten East"?"
"No, I hope everyone will not deliberately obscure the concept when promoting it, and give the screenwriter due respect." Yue Guan said seriously.
The screenwriter thought that Yue Guan was helping him stand up, and gratefully nodded to Yue Guan with his hands clasped together.
Yue Guan also nodded in return.
In my mind, I was thinking, this script is probably going to be scolded, so I won’t take the blame.
Da Tiantian asked him to take the blame, but at least he still had a beautiful woman as his mistress.
There is nothing here, of course Yue Guan will not be a saint.
The host did not let go of Yue Guan and continued to ask: "Yue Guan, what do you think of the plot of "The Swordsman: The Invincible East"? Has it reached the standard of satisfaction in your mind?"
Yue Guan told the truth: "The completeness of the plot is actually better than I expected. After all, as we all know, Director Xu's dramas usually have better special effects than the plot, and he doesn't pay special attention to the plot."
Hearing what Yue Guan said, Xu Ke was not angry either.
This is what it is.
Xu Ke asked: "How are the special effects going?"
"It's not bad, especially the battle between Dongfang Invincible and Feng Qingyang. The special effects of Dugu Nine Swords are very good." Yue Guan's comments are still very honest: "The disadvantage is that there are too few special effects. I thought there would be another one at the end. The battle between Dongfang Bubai and Ren Wo Xing ended up with Ren Wo Xing becoming possessed by fire."
Yue Guan faintly pointed out the points where the movie failed to meet the audience's expectations.
But Xu Ke didn't hear it.
He only understood the first half of the sentence, and then automatically translated the second half into the meaning he wanted to understand.
Xu Ke explained: "Dongfang Bubai is not a good person. You can call him a tyrant, or you can call him a traitor. Such a person is too smart to calculate. If he can successfully defeat Ren Woxing, he will become the master of the Sun and Moon God." Teach me, this movie is just an ordinary commercial martial arts movie, and it is no different from other martial arts movies. But let me walk like fire and be possessed by the devil, Dongfang Bubai can win without a fight, the pattern and conception of this movie are instantly sublimated ”
Yue Guan noticed that after Xu Ke explained this, many people present, including the director, nodded approvingly.
Obviously, they agreed with Xu Ke.
Yue Guan didn't say anything.
He hopes the audience will think so too.
pity.
The box office performance of "The Swordsman: The Invincible" proves that the audience does not think so.
The first-day box office of "The Swordsman: The Invincible" was 51 million, which is already very good for a martial arts movie.
But the next day it dropped to 40 million.
On the third day, 35 million.
On the fourth day, 31 million.
Steady decline.
There is no rebound trend at all.
Contrary to the box office trend is the reputation of "The Swordsman: The Invincible".
The film's reputation is as high as 8.2 points.
Many netizens are applauding the ending of "The Swordsman: The Invincible".
Countless industry insiders turned into tap water and recommended this movie.
But the box office is still falling steadily.
According to the current trend, there will definitely be no problem in getting back the capital.
But I just earned some hard-earned money.
In terms of return on investment, Miracle Company looks down on such a play.
Many people are paying attention to "The Swordsman: The Invincible", and this box office trend has left them all confused.
Damimi even took the initiative to call Yue Guan: "Yue Guan, what is the box office situation of "The Swordsman: The Invincible"? Obviously this drama has received rave reviews."
Yue Guan sighed softly: "This is what I said, good reviews can be deceiving, but Long Yuan can't. If the ending of this movie is normally arranged to have a fight between Dongfang Bubai and Ren Woxing, spend more money. If you do special effects, the rating can be reduced by one point, and the box office is estimated to be 100 million more."
Sometimes, mediocrity means mass.
And excellence means niche.
When the two cannot be balanced, Yue Guan will choose to lean towards the public.
Xu Ke is not Yue Guan.
He has his own artistic aesthetic and pursuit.
Unfortunately, the audience also has their own aesthetics.
And the audience will not get used to you.
Hearing what Yue Guan said, Damimi began to worry: ""Mermaid" won't have this kind of problem, right?"
