Chapter 255 The God of Domestic Entertainment, Rebuilding the Country!
"I laughed so hard that I convulsed. From the beginning to the end, it was amazing. This male lead is really a new development."
"It's so funny, so funny that it gives me a stomachache! The actors are really great. Although they are all newcomers and young actors, they acted like veteran actors. Ma Xi, Miao Ling, Zhong Jianlong, Guo Shu, Lu Enen, I will remember you!"
"The laughs come one after another, I really can't stop."
"It's quite funny. We should watch comedy films during the Spring Festival."
“It’s really fucking beautiful!”
"It's so good, so good, I laughed so hard that I kicked my legs without even noticing it."
"The whole audience and my wife laughed non-stop, saying that the leading actor was such a great actor. I dare say he will definitely be one of the funniest actors in Tianxia from now on!"
"I really like this kind of low-budget comedy with a lot of gags. It's the only movie that made me laugh happily in the past few years. I even got scolded by my dad for laughing too loudly in the cinema."
“Director: Zhang Zijie, your character has a lot of sex scenes in this play.
Zhang Zijie: Really? Director! That’s great.
Director: Act well.
Zhang Zijie: Nima…"
"It's not a loss to make money lying down [dog head]!"
"It's amazing that a movie with all newcomers can be made like this! Cheng Cheng is indeed a guarantee for the plot!"
The word-of-mouth of "The Killer" has exploded!
Audiences from all over the country who came out of the cinema spontaneously promoted "The Killer" on various platforms. One Weibo user saw this and didn't believe it, asking:
"Is this really good looking?????? Is there anyone from Tianxia who can tell me?"
The following person replied to her:
"Tianxia people don't lie to Tianxia people. If you want to have fun instead of watching a movie for its educational significance and connotation, this movie is worth watching!"
"It's really funny! The whole theater laughed out loud after watching it!"
"It's really good. I think the translation part is much better than this year's skit. The male lead has great acting skills!"
"The jokes are very dense! They are not awkward at all, the kind that make the whole theater laugh, which is quite unexpected hahahaha. It is a qualified Spring Festival comedy, with inexplicable and messy laughter. It is especially suitable for watching in the theater, especially for decompression.
While watching the film, I could empathize with the little people’s struggles, and I felt laughter and tears coexisting. I shouted to the little actors to come to the fore soon!
The last subtitles have highlights, highlights, and highlights! Don’t leave after watching it! Sit for a while! First recommendation during the Spring Festival! Everyone in the ticket circle who has watched it is praising it haha ...
"Inside and outside the play, there are counterattacks of small people!"
Someone in the black group also posted a message:
"People from all over the world came to see The Professional. Wow, the overall level exceeded my expectations. In short, it is a movie that everyone can enjoy. The text is very good, there is no awkward laughter at all, the plot is compact and exciting, with twists and turns, and it is very tense and exciting... Who would have thought that the movie I chose for the New Year would be a movie starring all newcomers, and I didn't expect it to be so good!"
"I went to see the movie to support Brother Frog. The male lead Ma Xi was really good. Like Wei Chenggong, he was in his thirties or forties and played the leading role for the first time. He cried bitterly at the end of the film. He said that his best feature was his sincerity, and he did it. The whole film was full of laughs and not vulgar. He was funny when he should be funny and cried when he should cry. His acting skills were very good. I really cherish this opportunity. I hope that people like him can have more room for development. The words at the end of the film also touched me. Success only persisted one more time than failure. There was no forced sublimation and sensationalism, but it was indeed the words that touched me the most after so many years as a supporting actor!"
"Brother Frog said he wanted to transform domestic entertainment, and with this movie, he really did it!"
"Yes, he gave newcomers a chance to come to the fore! Ahhh, looking forward to the next episode of 'Wulin Wai Zhuan'!"

On that day, the word-of-mouth of "The Killer" fermented, and terms such as #Circus male lead#, #Circus's performance is too addictive#, #The director hopes that Circus and Miao Ling can become famous#, #The Killer is Not So Cool and every sentence is full of jokes#, #Circus said that Wei Chenggong's experience is very similar to his own#, #The killer's main creator thanks Cheng Cheng#, and #Miao Ling sheds tears at the premiere# became hot searches.
Questions also appeared on Zhihu: "Is the 2022 Spring Festival movie "The Killer Is Not So Calm" written by Cheng Cheng worth watching?", "How do you evaluate the movie "The Killer Is Not So Calm" starring Ma Xi and Miao Ling?", "Would it be better if Ning Shan played "The Killer Is Not So Calm"?, "What significance will a movie starring a brand new person "The Killer Is Not So Calm" bring to the domestic entertainment industry?"
Among them, one of the highly praised answers is this:
[This is a landmark event that can truly change the status quo of Tianxia Domestic Entertainment!
Whether it will be successful or not depends on the box office of "The Killer"!
To put it bluntly, if "The Killer" can withstand the impact of capital and powerful forces in the domestic entertainment industry, it will not be so easy for the 208 million to use data to coerce the film companies to increase their pay in the future; it will not be so easy to make the public feel that they are indispensable; and it will be even more difficult for the aristocratic families and the wealthy to control the entertainment industry and fill it with a vicious cycle of power-for-sex transactions!
Before this, how long had it been since there was a grassroots production in the domestic entertainment industry?
If ordinary people want to become stars in the domestic entertainment industry, they either have to serve as dogs for capital and big stars and directors! Or they have to have incredible talent and luck and make absolutely correct choices in very few choices. Otherwise, it is basically impossible to succeed. People like Cheng Cheng are one in a million!
Tianxia has nearly 10 graduates and new graduates from all universities and colleges with acting departments every year. How many acting opportunities are there? They have long been monopolized by powerful people!
If Cheng Cheng hadn't been there, would Yan Gou'er have been able to make it? Would Wang Hong have been able to make it?
This is the malignant tumor and cancer cell of the entire domestic entertainment industry. It has absorbed almost the best talent resources of Tianxia, but the so-called talents it has cultivated are only good at climbing up by despicable means and have abandoned all bottom lines in order to get to the top. After getting to the top, they exploit the people below them, forming a vicious circle. The entire domestic entertainment industry has degenerated in this way.
Tianxia has 14 billion people, but the money it earns from the annual film market is not as much as that of a listed company. This shows how incompetent they are!
But after Cheng Cheng opened up this channel, more actors without any background will be successful in the future!
At least 30 actors are produced every year, and these actors will have a huge impact on the "children of rich families", "puppets chosen by capital", and "208w people who live a life of idleness and waiting to die".
The aristocratic families and the wealthy can no longer block the entertainment industry. There are more and more actors with backbone who are less and less likely to kowtow to them and fall for their tricks.
After the paper tiger nature of the 208 million in the capital market was exposed, the capital that was once keen to please them without any bottom line will also have to weigh whether it is worth giving them so much money for that little bit of traffic data.
After tasting good things, the audience will no longer be superstitious about the arrogant and illiterate idols they liked before.
Directors have more choices and no longer have to cast old actors to play young roles, nor will they cast actors with only half-baked acting skills.
It can be said that the entire domestic entertainment industry will be purified from top to bottom.
Cheng Cheng’s contribution is so great!
To sum it up in one sentence, some dark things in domestic entertainment have returned to where they should be.
The powerful, the wealthy, and the capital are of course anxious.
When they are in a hurry, they use the old methods, such as collecting data, team building, and stigmatization, trying to prove that they still have the hegemony of public opinion. But whether being in a hurry is useful or not, the box office will tell! ]
"I would like to call it the internal entertainment imperial examination!"
"What a great internal entertainment imperial examination! This is a great thing that benefits the country and the people!"
"The God of Internal Entertainment, Rebuilding the Country!"
"Brother Frog deserves to be enshrined in the Imperial Temple!"
"Fight! It's awesome!" "I'm just worried that I can't handle one movie or one TV show a year!"
"Brother Frog can't handle it? Brother Frog gives me the impression that hard work can't beat talent. Some people are born to perform and create. They can easily make 10 billion or 20 billion with a few big dramas. Brother Frog is still at the peak of his creation, so there's no way he can't handle it."
"If you can't handle it, you can always find someone else to write. As long as he keeps doing this, he will change the domestic entertainment industry one day."
"With Brother Frog here, the atmosphere of domestic entertainment has improved a lot."
"really!"

The box office of "Uncool" has been climbing.
After three hours of release, the box office reached 4171 million!
After five hours of release, the box office reached 9718 million!
After ten hours of release, the box office reached 21672 million!
Lu Zhuofeng's "Weaving" led the Spring Festival box office with a box office of 3.45 million yuan.
Li Chengyou's "After the Rain" ranked second with a box office of 2.85 million yuan.
"The Professional" grossed 2.32 million yuan, ranking third!
This Spring Festival period was indeed full of fierce competition. Lu Zhuofeng's "Weaving" and Li Chengyou's "After the Rain" both had good reputations and strong box office performance, but among the three movies, the most eye-catching one was undoubtedly "The Killer".
Although its box office is only 2.32 million, ranking third, weaker than the first two. However, its main creators are a group of actors who are not even th-tier actors and two new directors, and the cost is five or six times lower! It is a miracle to achieve this box office!
Lu Zhuofeng took a breath of cold air:
If this was shot by Cheng Cheng and Wen Lian/Yan Gou'er/Wang Hong, he couldn't even imagine what the box office performance of this movie would be.
It is estimated that he will be defeated by Cheng Cheng again.
This time, he faced Cheng Cheng, and although he won, it was somewhat unfair.
It would be better to say that Cheng Cheng let him go.

Hotel, private room.
The freshmen and second grade students held a celebration ceremony.
Every creator present had an irrepressible joy on their face.
Da Yi raised his glass and said loudly:
"First of all, for the first glass of wine, I want to thank Director Cheng. Without Director Cheng, there would be no movie "The Hitman". Director Cheng is the hero behind this movie and he is my eternal beacon! Although Director Cheng is not here, my heart is with him! Cheers!"
Ma Xi took over the conversation, his voice slightly choked with sobs, but more excited:
"Respectfully, Director Cheng, thank you Director Cheng and the two directors for giving me this opportunity. Before this, I never thought that this day would come. I am really grateful."
Miao Ling also raised his glass: "It is my honor to be able to star in Cheng Zong's movie and work with such outstanding people. I will drink it."
The waiter smiled and said, "After tonight, you will all be actors with box office revenue of over 100 million! It's all in the wine!"
Let's do it together.
Da Yi raised his glass again: "For the second glass of wine, I want to thank everyone. Without your hard work and persistence, there would be no success of The Hitman. Cheers to our team and our dream!"
The third glass of wine.
Dayi: "The third cup is to wish our box office a big success! Today is 200 million, tomorrow is 500 million, and in a few days it will be 1 billion! 2 billion!"
The numbers one billion and two billion seem to have magical power, taking root in everyone's heart.
Everyone shouted together:
“A big hit!”

The next day, the box office battle continued.
Major media outlets rushed to report:
"2022 Spring Festival, familiar faces compete, who will win the box office?"
"8 Spring Festival Movies, Choose Lu Zhuofeng or Cheng Cheng?"
"Premiere | "Weaving": Lv Zhuofeng made Xu Qi Gaoyang look so handsome this time!"
"What's so great about "After the Rain", the highest-rated movie on Douban during the Spring Festival?"
"People's Daily Online reviews of "Weaving"? Behind the creation of "The Killer" by Cheng Cheng? Which movie is your top 1?"
"The Professional" becomes a dark horse, is this its trump card? "
The word most often used by the media to describe "The Killer" is "dark horse". Cheng Cheng only made a slight move at the last minute, but he was able to occupy a place in the fiercely competitive Spring Festival period, which shows how terrifying it is.
However, as public opinion fermented, some negative voices were inevitably raised about "The Killer".
"Can someone sincerely say: It's not pretty."
"It doesn't look good!"
"It doesn't look good!"
"It doesn't look good!"
