Recently, there was a news that surprised me a little -
Liu Ye, Yu Nan, Yu Rongguang, starred in the online movie "Detonator",
Golden Rooster Film Emperor + Golden Rooster Film Queen + Old Drama Bone, still all first-line, such a combination appeared in the network movie, or the first time in China.
The main story of the "Detonator" movie is that Liu Ye and the head of the detonation squad played by Yu Nan join forces to confront Kun Kang, an overseas drug lord played by Yu Rongguang, to save a city.
Although the release time of the film has not been determined, the filmmakers have released the first trailer on the Internet.
At the beginning of the trailer, Liu Ye's lines captured the audience's ears: "In the world of the detonators, there is only one chance." ”
The scene immediately comes to a construction site, where a group of detonators are fully armed and slowly enter the dangerous gate under the command of the character played by Yu Nan.
This was followed by Liu Ye's character's speech at the mobilization meeting, where he said that an explosive detonator would have two consequences if he was overconfident.
As a result of the first, you lose your comrades-in-arms.
As a second result, your comrades lose you.
This seemingly simple sentence actually contains philosophy, which reminds Pi Ge of Lu Xun's famous saying, "One is a jujube tree, and the other is also a jujube tree."
The old drama bone Yu Rongguang plays the villain in the film, and in the trailer he has only one shot, only to see him wearing a military uniform, and his eyes are cold and he says: "Let me see your humanity." ”
A short line explains that this story is not only a physical battle of swords, but also a spiritual battle that tortures human nature.
Judging from the trailer, the set of this movie, the acting skills of the actors, the big scenes, etc., are worth any large-scale cinema movies.
Some viewers may say that we are familiar with the theme of bomb disposal, and Andy Lau's "Bomb Disposal Expert" series is not this theme? Lao Liu's roles in "Demolition 1" and "Demolition 2" have been sacrificed, and this story has been told to the end, what new ideas can "Detonator" tell?
Pigo feels that, first of all, from the perspective of the lineup, the three main actors of "Detonator" are the kind of fierce characters who can fight a hard battle.
Liu Ye has filmed the "Tough Guy" series, and successfully transformed from a literary and artistic student to a charming mature man.
Yu Nan also made his debut in literary and art films, but he also labeled himself a capable female general by starring in the "Wolf Warrior" series.
Yu Rongguang had the experience of filming in Hong Kong in his early years, and in 2009, he starred in Guan Yu in "The New Three Kingdoms", and he was also an absolute tough guy, he had always played a positive role in the past, and this time playing a villain who did not talk much was also a big attraction.
As a result, the three fierce roles are hard to meet, plus Shi Zhaoqi, Du Zhiguo and other famous actors participate, for the audience, this attraction is self-evident.
And the director of this film Kan Jiawei is Wang Jing's younger brother, is the assistant director of "Ip Man", "Equator" and other Hong Kong films, the production rules of Hong Kong films, he has also filmed the "Sister-in-law" network movie, in the theater film and network movies are involved, shooting "Detonator" such a network blockbuster is appropriate.
Secondly, from the story point of view, the biggest difference between "ExplosivesMan" and "Bomb Disposal Expert" is that "Bomb Disposal Expert" pays more attention to personal heroism, focusing on Andy Lau alone, and the film focuses on the protagonist like a magnifying glass.
But "Detonator" pays more attention to teamwork, from the trailer, the protagonists played by Liu Ye and Yu Nan are not alone, they have a bunch of comrades-in-arms around them, it is to put the characters in a grand background to show the characters, the pattern is larger.
In the end, it is different in the sense of the film.
In the past, although the "network movie" had a "big" word, it has always been a little brother in the film and television circle.
"Big net" often means: unknown actors, cheap sets, low-cost comedies, or soft pornography, in short, can not climb the elegant hall.
However, with Xu Zheng's "囧Mom" in 2020 changing from a theatrical movie to an online premiere, "NetDa" seems to have found a leading big brother and ushered in a vigorous development.
Many low-cost movies can only be reduced to cannon fodder to the theater, and released on the Internet can harvest a wave of box office;
Many popular cinemas can still go online after offline screenings and harvest a wave of box office.
This momentum has become even more pronounced this year.
In the Spring Festival file, Wang Baoqiang and Tang Jili cooperated in the online martial arts movie "The Legend of Debao of Shaolin Temple";
Song Xiaobao called Ma Li, Sha Yi and Zhang Yishan to shoot the online comedy movie "Diary of Fortune";
In March, Wang Taili and Liu Yan cooperated in the online movie "Fake Big Bodyguard";
In May, Liu Ye, Yu Nan, and Yu Rongguang finally became the fourth wave of crab eaters in this year's film circle and filmed "Detonator".
"Detonator" can be seen as an online version of "Bomb Disposal Expert",
"Breaking Up Expert" is an excellent theatrical film, but "Detonator" goes beyond the meaning of an online movie, and its emergence means that China's online movies finally have works that can break the wrist with popular cinema movies, which has a great encouraging effect on the newcomers.
Whether "Detonator" can compare with "Bomb Disposal Expert 2" or it is unknown, but everyone can compare these two films together, which is itself the biggest affirmation of this network movie.
The first release of this trailer of "Detonator" was at the previous iQIYI World Conference, which also marked that this film is an important chess piece in iQIYI's strategic layout and has played the role of industry benchmark.
In time, the development of online movies to a certain extent can be comparable to cinema movies, and even overtake in curves to catch up, if this day comes, it will trigger a revolution, and the audience can enjoy the latest and hottest movie blockbusters at home without leaving home.
The birth of "Detonator" has rewritten the ceiling of Chinese online movies, and the real blockbuster era of Chinese online movies is coming...
