Chapter 193 Counterattack
Lin Feng and Wu Qian, two top stars, are the two most important "positive and negative" characters in "Mr. Six" besides Feng Xiaogang, and they have definitely attracted more attention.
Moreover, they are both top stars, on the same track, are about the same age, and are among the most popular people recently, so it is inevitable that the two will be compared.
"Old Cannon" is fair to both Wu Qian and Lin Feng. They each play a main role, with their roles having highlights and layers, and both have a lot of scenes with Feng Xiaogang.
The two roles provide the actors with enough space to perform, and the presentation effect depends entirely on their acting skills.
Xiao Fei, played by Wu Qian, is the leader of a gang of gangsters. He represents the new forces in the underworld and competes with the old-fashioned Liu Ye, represented by Feng Xiaogang, in a competition between the new order and the old tradition.
Xiao Fei and Lao Paoer were initially at loggerheads, but later Xiao Fei developed admiration and respect for Lao Paoer. The two stages require two different performance states.
Lin Feng plays Lao Paoer's son Xiaobo, who has an emotional gap with his father for more than 20 years.
From mutual misunderstanding and accusations to final reconciliation, the actors need to grasp the subtle changes in the characters' emotions and present them slowly and step by step.
Apart from anything else, from the perspective of acting alone, Lin Feng's acting skills are definitely better than Wu Qian's. The two are really not on the same level.
Lin Feng can really compete with movie stars like Feng Xiaogang, but when Wu Qian appears, it always gives you a sense of disconnection, the sense of disharmony is too strong, and it is impossible to get into the play!"
“Before watching Mr. Six, my impression of the film was that Feng Xiaogang, Xu Qing, and Zhang Hanyu were responsible for their acting skills and reputation, while Lin Feng and Wu Qian were responsible for their looks and box office success!
After watching the movie, Feng Xiaogang, Xu Qing, Zhang Hanyu and Lin Feng should be responsible for their acting skills, reputation, appearance and box office, while Wu Qian is only responsible for looking cool!
Lin Feng's acting was good this time. If the score is 100, I'll give him 85. I wanted to give him 80, but when I saw Wu Qian, I gave him 5 more points. As for Wu Qian, I don't want to comment on him!"
"Lin Feng's acting skills are remarkable. He uses his flexible acting skills to show the unruly nature of the Hutong youth while also letting everyone see his inner softness.
He portrayed the inner world of the character to the fullest, bringing fans a flesh-and-blood, responsible BJ. His acting is excellent, and his future is promising! "
"The people who impressed me the most in the whole movie are Feng Xiaogang and Lin Feng, especially the white hair that Lin Feng had when he first appeared. It was so stunning that even a man like me thought he was handsome. No wonder he has so many fans!
Moreover, Lin Feng's acting skills are really good, with a strong BJ accent. It seems that he has put a lot of effort into it. His lines and performance are eye-catching.
Being able to act on the same stage with veteran actors like Feng Xiaogang, Xu Qing, and Zhang Hanyu without losing out is really amazing!"
"The highlight is the drinking and reconciliation between Lin Feng and Feng Xiaogang. The wrestling between father and son and the emotions of the characters are like a roller coaster.
This scene lasts a long time and is located in a closed space. There are only two people acting opposite each other. The actors can only rely on expressions, eyes and tiny body movements to show the changes in emotions, and they must stay on the same channel while acting.
Lin Feng basically kept up with Feng Xiaogang's rhythm. His eyes and brows were trying hard to convey the necessary emotional information, and the character's growth could be seen.
In the process from mutual misunderstanding to final reconciliation, Xiaobo experienced the process from rebellion and resentment to opening his heart, and Lin Feng basically found the right feeling at each stage. "
"What surprised the audience about Lin Feng's performance this time was his explosive power and his ability to control the emotionally intense scenes within a reasonable range. The harsh words he uttered during the argument with Lao Paoer were quite infectious and fully mobilized the audience's emotions."
"The movie is good, Feng Xiaogang's performance is good, no wonder he won the Golden Horse Award for Best Actor, and Lin Feng's performance is also good, but the 'Xiaobo' he played is really handsome, so handsome that it makes people wonder:
What kind of goddess did a rough man like Feng Xiaogang marry to give birth to a handsome son like Lin Feng? "
...
Most of the people here support Lin Feng and criticize Wu Qian. There is nothing that can be done about it because this is a fact. Lin Feng's acting is better than Wu Qian's. Anyone who is not blind can see it, and no one can refute it!
In his previous life, Li Yifeng’s acting skills were better than Wu Qian’s, let alone Lin Feng now. Moreover, Lin Feng also stole Wu Qian’s most important “white hair” look!
Why was Wu Qian so outstanding in "Mr. Six" in his previous life and left a very deep impression on people? It was not because of his good acting skills, but because his appearance added a lot of points to him.
Of course, if you have good looks, you will stand out in the crowd, which is a natural plus.
The prerequisite for becoming a top star is that you must have a good-looking face. Whether it is Lin Feng, Wu Qian, or Lu Han, they are undoubtedly representatives of good looks.
Wu Qian made full use of his physical charm, and with the help of props such as white hair, sunglasses, windbreaker and turtleneck sweater, he was already half successful.
Wu Qian showed off his coolness but in just the right way, with the quality of a natural MV. His every move and gesture did indeed reveal the demeanor of a wicked and crazy boss, which left a deep impression on the audience.
But now this "white hair" look belongs to Lin Feng. Both of them are gangsters. Lin Feng's appearance with white hair really amazed the entire fan base and definitely made fans lick the screen.
"Fuck, before, Lin Feng was the most handsome man in the entertainment industry, and I was a little bit unconvinced, but now I have to admit it!"
"As expected of the most handsome man in the entertainment industry, Lin Feng is so handsome in this look, it's hard not to like him!"
"Lin Feng is really good-looking, and his acting in the movie "Old Cannon" is also good. I am very optimistic about him. I think he may become the number one young actor in the entertainment industry!"
"No one has ever praised our Wu Qian's acting skills. I think his acting skills are pretty good, and his looks are not inferior to Lin Feng at all!"
"I'm not exaggerating or criticizing you. You're just bringing shame to your Wu Qian by saying this. Does Wu Qian have any acting skills? It's a PPT-style acting that comes with an MV effect. Is this called acting?
The only time he appeared in the whole movie was a bit awkward. I didn’t want to scold him, but now that you said that, I feel like I’d be sorry if I didn’t scold him!”
"Even if our Wu Qian is bad, he is not as bad as you say. If you are so good, why don't you go and act? Don't you feel backache when standing there?"
"I'm a passerby, and I'm giving an objective evaluation. In terms of looks, Lin Feng and Wu Qian are equally matched, but generally speaking, Lin Feng is better, mainly because Lin Feng has a better temperament!
When it comes to acting skills, I can say responsibly that Lin Feng is far better than Wu Qian, they are not even on the same level.
Okay, this is my opinion. If you insist on arguing, then I can only say that you win, and everything you said is right! "
"You are just a passerby, and you are still an objective person. All the comments in your section are praising Lin Feng. Do you call that objective? You just lie with your eyes open and slander our Wu Qian."
...
Even passers-by commented on Lin Feng like this, so Lin Feng's fans were really proud this time. Everyone in the comment section was so happy that it was like New Year's Day.
"Fengfeng performed very well this time. I feel that his acting skills have improved a lot. He is really getting more and more perfect. He also remembers how much I like him! Kiss my husband, I will always support you!"
"I don't care about Fengfeng's perfect acting skills, I just like his looks. His face is really suitable for the big screen, especially when Fengfeng first appeared in the movie "Old Cannon", his white hair was really amazing,
I have never seen such a handsome man, this is really someone I can't even imagine in my dreams, I am almost orgasming!"
"Lin Feng is really good-looking. His appearance should be shown more on the big screen instead of just the small screen. Otherwise, his looks will be wasted!"
"I love Fengfeng's looks so much. I'm going to change my phone screen saver so I can see him every day."
...
During the roadshow, Lin Feng would also read these reviews. Some praised the film's plot, some praised Feng Xiaogang's acting skills, and the one who received the most praise was undoubtedly Lin Feng himself!
On the one hand, it’s because the makeup and hair style is really eye-catching. That white hair is really hard to look away, it’s too prominent.
After all, Lin Feng has a high-class face, is friendly, and aggressive, which conforms to the aesthetics of Oriental people.
It also has the distinct three-dimensional features of the West. Nothing to say, just one word: "handsome"!
The more important aspect, of course, is Lin Feng’s acting skills!
When he was acting with Feng Xiaogang in this play, he firmly took over the other person's aura, especially in the "father and son reconciliation" scene, Lin Feng not only took it over, but also acted with Feng Xiaogang.
Of course, he benefited more from the contrast with his peers, and mainly because of Wu Qian’s "excellent acting skills" that directly made him stand out!
Although the box office of "Old Cannon" was not good on the first day, the single-day box office of "Old Cannon" was only about one-third of the box office of "Bad Angels".
Due to the subject matter, the attendance rate was not high, but basically all the audiences who walked out of the cinema felt that the ticket was worth it.
However, the road to box office counterattack for "Old Cannon" has just begun!
And the facts have proved that in this era that has entered the stage of high-quality development, truly good movies will definitely have high returns.
Day 1, December 12 (Thursday, Christmas Day):
"Mr. Six" had a screening rate of 25.5% and a box office of 6233 million.
"Bad Angels" had a screening rate of 42.7% and a box office of 1 million.
The screening rate of "Bad Boys" is nearly twice that of "Old Boys", but the box office is nearly three times that of "Bad Boys". At this time, "Old Boys" can't compete with "Bad Boys" at all.
Day 2, December 12 (Friday):
The screening rate of "Mr. Six" was 23.5%, a decrease of 2%, and the box office fell to 6743 million.
"Bad Angels" had a screening rate of 43.6% and a box office of 1 million, with a single-day box office drop of 4184 million.
On the second day of its release, "Old Cannon" adjusted its promotional focus again. Even though the screening rate dropped by 2 percentage points, the box office of "Old Cannon" increased by 500 million compared to the previous day.
The third day of release, December 3 (Saturday, holiday):
The screening rate of "Mr. Six" was 25.5%, which was 2 percentage points higher than the previous day. The box office fell again, with a single-day box office of 7524 million.
"Bad Angels" had a screening rate of 38% and a box office of 1 million. Both the screening rate and the single-day box office were declining.
That is, on the third day after the movie was released, "Old Cannon" began its counterattack and launched a counterattack against "Bad Angels".
The bad movie effect of "Bad Angels" has also begun to appear, with various indicators such as single-day box office and screening rate dropping sharply.
Day 4, December 12 (Sunday, holiday):
"Mr. Six" had a screening rate of 26.9% and a box office of 8036 million.
"Bad Angels" had a screening rate of 36.6% and a box office of 8460 million.
By the fourth day, although the screening rate of "Old Boys" was still far behind "Bad Angels", the single-day box office of the two was almost the same!
At this time, the attendance rate and box office contribution rate of "Old Cannon" far exceeded that of "Bad Angels".
And with the current development of the situation, it is almost certain that the single-day box office of "Old Boys" will surpass "Bad Angels" tomorrow.
Day 5 of release: December 12 (Monday, weekday):
"Mr. Six" had a screening rate of 29.9% and a box office of 6015 million.
"Bad Angels" had a screening rate of 34.9% and a box office of 3110 million.
Finally, on the fifth day of its release, Old Boys was released, with its screening rate 5 percentage points lower than that of Bad Angels.
Its single-day box office exceeded that of "Bad Boys", winning the first single-day box office champion since its release. Even its current box office is almost twice that of "Bad Boys".
Things are really changing!
Since its release on December 12, the stories of "Bad Angels" and "Old Cannon" on and off the screen have been revealed.
Together with the movies, it attracted the attention of the industry and the audience, and the changing box office curves of the two films were as bullish and bearish as the plots of the movies.
The movie "Old Cannon" is about "rules" and "disobedience", and the box office curve of "Old Cannon" also reflects "disobedience".
When one after another highly acclaimed movies failed in the film market, only "Old Cannon" carved out a magical "Six Master Curve" on the frozen lake of the film market.
And use the counterattack story of "Six Master" to tell Chinese films a long-forgotten old rule: "Good movies are watched by people."
For the growing Chinese film industry, this may be more important than the feuds outside of the film.
The box office curve of "Mr. Six" can be summarized in two words: counterattack.
From December 12, the box office of "Old Cannon" continued to decline; by December 26, with a lower screening ratio than "Bad Angels" and "Mojin: The Lost Legend",
The attendance rate of "Mr. Six" exceeded both of them, and its single-day box office of 8036 million achieved a box office comeback.
On December 12, the box office trend of "Old Cannon" continued to rise, finally surpassing "Bad Angels" and "Mojin: The Last Dragon" to win the first single-day box office championship;
Taking into account the film's good reputation and stress resistance, the impact of the new film is unlikely to break up the audience of "Old Cannon", and the coming New Year's Day will still be the home court of "Old Cannon".
5 days, 3.49 million!
The audience voted with their feet, allowing the box office of "Mr. Six" to follow the unyielding "Six-Master Curve". In another way, it created a box office blockbuster for Chinese films, "The Return of the Great Sage".
