The Director of Music Department

The gap between "Spring on Dead Trees" and "Lilac Flowers" is all-round.

The first is investment, Wang Yifan can only invest by himself, because no one is willing to give him a singer to invest in a movie.

But Wu Tianxiong is different, he has already made his debut. Although the investment of "A Dead Tree in Spring" is not high, about 20 to 30 million, it is much higher than Wang Yifan's movie.

Then there is the director, needless to say, Wang Yifan is so young that he can't be more tender and new, but Wu Tianxiong is the best new director at the Golden Dragon Award.

In terms of cast, the leading actor in "Lilac Flower" is not as good as the third male lead in "Withered Trees in Spring" in Zhou Haiyang's eyes, which is evident.

Finally, in terms of distribution, "Lilac" only opened in 500 theaters, and the promotional funds were very little, but "Withered Trees in Spring" alone opened in theaters, at least more than 2,000, and they can even hold premieres.

This is where the gap lies.

"Director Wang, we met again. It's really the first time in three days that we've seen each other with admiration." Wu Tianxiong looked at Wang Yifan with a complicated smile and said.

He really expressed his feelings. Who would have imagined that a month ago, that newcomer who didn't even know how to get a film company has now become the biggest competitor of his film.

Yes, "Lilac Flower" is a romance film, and "Spring with Dead Trees" is also a romance film. It can be said that the two films are in a natural competitive relationship, and this competition is mainly reflected in the overlap of audience groups.

"Director Wu won the award, but it's just a joke. Congratulations to Director Wu, and I hope the film sells well." Wang Yifan said with a smile.

"The truth?" Wu Tianxiong asked back with a smile.

On the contrary, Wang Yifan was taken aback. However, Wu Tianxiong just made a joke, and immediately laughed and said: "Speaking of which, we are competitors, hahaha." He seemed very calm.

After that, Wu Tianxiong pleaded guilty and left.

"You said, is he really just joking?" Chen Xuebing asked Wang Yifan, blinking.

"Both, he's telling the truth, "Spring with a Dead Tree" and "Lilac Flower" are indeed the most direct competitors." Wang Yifan said calmly.

"Look, it's Zhou Haiyang! Do you think he will regret his original decision now?" After a while, Wu Tianxiong came to the stage with a group of main creators of "Withered Trees in Spring". Chen Xuebing saw Zhou Haiyang at first sight.

"It doesn't matter, as long as such a person doesn't cooperate in the future, there is no need to be unhappy about him." Wang Yifan patted Chen Xuebing's hand and said.

"Well, he will definitely regret it!" Chen Xuebing was worried about Zhou Haiyang's matter. At first she wanted to help Wang Yifan, but Zhou Haiyang let the crew dove when the end came. Well, what made Chen Xuebing most upset was In Zhou Haiyang's eyes, the leading actor in "Lilac Flower" is actually not as good as a male number three with few scenes.

After some routine, the movie was officially screened.

Wang Yifan's visit this time also meant to inquire about the enemy's situation.

Wu Tianxiong is not the kind of purely commercial film director, and "Spring with a Dead Tree" is also not a very commercial film.

The film is about a year-end love, the so-called spring after a dead tree, well, it is actually the love between an uncle and a big lolita.

"Spring with Dead Trees" is also not a movie with ups and downs and plot twists and turns. It is somewhat similar to "Lilac Flowers".

However, Wang Yifan frowned, he admired Wu Tianxiong, why did he say that? Because the ending of "Spring on a Dead Tree" is actually a comedy happy ending!

"How do you feel?" Wang Yifan asked Chen Xuebing on the side, no way, most of the time for romance movies, the feelings of female audiences are really important, because they are the largest audience.

The same is true for "Lilac", the ratio of female audience to male audience is overwhelming.

Let's put it this way, maybe a group of female girlfriends will watch "Lilac Flower" together, but a group of men will definitely not choose to watch this kind of movie together.

"It's not bad. Zhou Xing's acting skills are very good, much better than someone else's. It's just that he has an extra annoying face." Chen Xuebing stuck out her tongue and said mischievously.

"What's the comparison? I'm asking about movies, how do you feel?" Wang Yifan rolled his eyes and said.

"I feel, it's okay, there's nothing outstanding, but there's nothing wrong with it, right?" Chen Xuebing thought for a while and said.

Wang Yifan nodded, that was indeed the case, but if this was the case, there was no need to worry too much.

Looking at those romance films, to be honest, there are not many successful ones with a happy ending.

Not doing well is the biggest problem.

After the box office of "Lilac Flower" was more than 62 million in the first 7 days, the box office remained stable on Thursday, with 1238 kings, pushing the box office to more than 74 million.

Very steadily moving towards the 100 million mark.

On Friday, Beichuan Film Festival's best film "Spring with a Dead Tree" was grandly screened.

There are more than 2,000 theaters for the opening of the film, and in terms of publicity, it can also be said to be at the crushing level.

At the same time, for "Lilac Flower", a large number of black fans suddenly appeared on the Internet. The most intuitive manifestation is that on the audio-visual website, although "Lilac" was released for a week before, although the rating has dropped, it still remained at around 8 points, but on Friday, "Lilac" began to appear on a large scale negative reviews.

"The story doesn't have any bright spots. It's an old routine. Just shoot the MV, but it's going to be made into a movie to cheat money!"

"It's no wonder that a singer is a director, there is no sense of substitution at all."

"The stalk of the domineering president and Cinderella is too old and nothing new."

"Since I chose to refuse, why write a letter, purely for the sake of sensationalism!"

Anyway, it's all kinds of slander, and the ratings of "Lilac Flower" on the audio-visual website have also dropped a lot, directly falling below 8 points. Although the number of ratings has exceeded 10,000, it still dropped 0.4 points, leaving only 7.6 points. It can be seen that The strength of the opponent's suppression.

This is commercial competition. Even on the surface, Wu Tianxiong even invited Wang Yifan to attend the premiere, but there was no shortage of necessary actions.

On the other hand, for "Spring in Dead Wood", the ratings on the audio-visual website have always remained high, with a total score of more than 9 points and a high score of 9.2 points. Obviously, the other party not only hacked "Lilac", but also slapped its own score.

In fact, these are all routines. "Lilac Flower" did not encounter this kind of situation before because "Lilac Flower" was not very eye-catching at the beginning, and later films came up, but "Dragon Battleship" and other movies are actually similar to "Lilac Flower". The competition relationship of "Flower" is not so direct, after all, the genres are different, and several other films have been released for a few weeks, so there is no further action.

After all, discrediting others also costs money.

The price/performance ratio is too low, so "Lilac Flower" will be relatively smooth.

But now it's different. "Spring on a Dead Tree" and "Lilac Flower" will be direct competitors.

I heard that voting for collection can make people feel extremely comfortable, why not try pinching?
