9.6 points, "In the Octagon Cage" is outstanding at the box office, who is better than "Disappearing Her"?
"No matter how hard you try to get the water away, the stone will still sink."
"I tricked them out of that ravine, I tricked them into fighting, I tricked them into winning championships... They are not even the ones who lied to them except me! ”
——Excerpted from the famous quote from Wang Baoqiang's movie "In the Octagon Cage".
Recently, the major event in the TV industry is the 28th Shanghai TV Festival Magnolia Award was announced, Zhao Liying ran three times, and this time was first boarded by Wu Yue; Lei Jiayin's outstanding performance in "The World" conquered the jury, and this emperor is well deserved.
What's more interesting is that Zhang Yi, who was shortlisted for the male lead with "Crazy", slipped away halfway, while Zhang Songwen, who was not nominated, attended with a high profile, are there also discord between the pros and cons in this play?
There are also major events in the film industry, on June 22, Stephen Chow's 61st birthday announced that he would prepare for the new film "Shaolin Women's Football" and solicit actresses from all over the world, this time "star girls" are a large number of Oh.
In addition, the annual Dragon Boat Festival stall is in full swing...
One
On June 23, the Dragon Boat Box Office Ranking on Friday was released, and the market slammed down a total of 331 million, which fell by 20 million overall, and also made the Dragon Boat Box Office officially break through the 600 million yuan mark.
Zhu Yilong's new film is the best, with a cumulative box office of 378 million in two days of release, and as of press time, the box office of "Disappearing Her" exceeded 400 million, and won the box office champion for 2 consecutive days.
Ni Dahong, Hui Yinghong, Leung Jiahui and Ye Tong, four old drama bones starring the elderly love film "I Love You", with the blessing of high reputation, has formed the largest dark horse in the schedule, with a total box office of more than 100 million in the first two days, winning the runner-up and performing very brightly.
"Don't Call Me "God of Gamblers" starring Chow Yun-fat and Yuen Yongyi was directly muted, with a box office of only 32.23 million in 2 days, ranking seventh, in a state of pounce on the street, and it is predicted that the total box office will not exceed 80 million.
And the Douban word of mouth has just been lifted, and the audience unceremoniously rated 5.9 points, failing, it seems that the debt owed by Chow Yun-fat's previous "Macau Vice" has not been repaid.
The two Hollywood movies "The Flash" and "Crazy Element City" encountered the Dragon Boat Festival schedule in the second week of their release, and were beaten by a number of new mainland films, ranking fifth and sixth respectively, of which "The Flash" crashed at the global box office.
The most prominent movie in this schedule is "In the Octagon Cage".
On the first day of screening on June 22, the film won 6.7% of the country's film share, with an attendance rate of 15.7%, and finally received 21.93 million;
On June 23, the day after the screening, it again got 6.9% of the films, the attendance rate increased significantly to 18.7%, and the box office reversed the decline to 24.39 million.
"In the Octagon Cage" was brilliant at the box office, receiving 46.51 million in 2 days, ranking fourth, second only to "Disappearing Her", you know, this is a box office result set by a small-scale screening.
The film premiered at the Shanghai International Film Festival as early as June 16, when the media and film critics had a surprisingly good reputation, which greatly increased the confidence of the filmmakers.
Therefore, "In the Octagon Cage" followed the example of "Nezha: The Devil Child Descends" and launched an advanced screening and publicity model: from June 22 to 24, the film was screened nationwide.
"In the Octagonal Cage", which was parachuted into the Dragon Boat Festival schedule, directly scared away "Jedi Pursuit" directed by Qiu Litao and starring Ou Hao, Gu Jiacheng and Yu Haoming, it turns out that running is right, otherwise it will be the next "Don't Call Me God of Gamblers".

I haven't watched a movie for a long time, but this movie, the impact on me is particularly strong, it sends us a signal that the male protagonist staked his own life with determination and courage, brought the children in the mountains, broke through the octagonal cage of his life, was knocked down again and again, and got up again and again.
This is actually the same as all of us, in comparison, we live in a more fortunate environment, the conditions are better, but we also have our own life octagonal.
The determination to break the octagon and jump out of this confinement of life is a test for each of us, so the belief that this movie conveys to us is very important, that is, confidence, thank you.
This is Zhang Xinyu's husband He Jie's viewing experience published after watching "In the Octagonal Cage".
On the evening of June 23, at the Guangzhou roadshow scene, Zhang Xinyu He Jie appeared to support Wang Baoqiang's new movie "In the Octagonal Cage", and she also took the initiative to call for the film on her personal social platform.
After the screening of "In the Octagon Cage", the second round of word-of-mouth was released one after another, and the ticketing platform rated 9.6 points, which is the best film in the same period.
Followed by "I Love You" with 9.5 points, and then "Disappearing Her" with 9.4 points, it can be seen from the feedback of Douban short reviews that the audience of "In the Octagon Cage" has almost all given four to five stars.
It is believed that the film's Douban score will basically be maintained between 7.5 and 8.3 points, and Brother Brown also watched the screening in advance at 8:55 last night.
I gave this film a score of 7.8, which does not reach the height of "I Am Not the God of Medicine" and "Wrestling Dad", but it belongs to the middle and upper class in domestic movies, and it is worth walking in theaters.
Three
Who is better than "In the Octagon" and "Disappearing Her"? In other words, who is stronger Wang Baoqiang or Zhu Yilong?
First of all, analyze from the perspective of originality.
The prototype of "In the Octagon Cage" is the Embo fighting orphan incident, and the video at that time was once popular on the Internet, and the screenwriter Qiqi used this highly controversial event and character for film and television creation, which itself has strong practical significance.
In the early days, Wang Baoqiang played by Xiang Tenghui and Wang Feng, played by Wang Xun, partnered to open a sand and gravel factory, and due to poor management and peer competition, they were almost unable to make ends meet and were on the verge of bankruptcy.
During this period, when he was running goods to Tenhui, he also encountered a group of children in the mountains to sabotage.
The bad little boss played by Xiao Yang provides Xiang Tenghui with a start-up capital and asks him to organize a group of children to set up a club to promote his industry.
Xiang Tenhui found the group of children and was about to make a big deal when the small boss was arrested for being reported for selling fake goods, and the group of children disbanded on the spot.
Unexpectedly, they ran to the competitor to make trouble, and finally paid for Tenhui and were ready to send the children home to claim compensation, but these children were either orphans or poor and clanging.
So, when it was difficult to support himself, he chose to let the children stay, train them to play fake punches, and make up for the losses as soon as possible.
The children are in a dangerous situation with fake boxing, and if they want to really go out, they can only fake the drama and do it, and in desperation, Wang Fenghe reached an agreement with Tenhui, sold the battlefield, and opened the Tenhui Club.
After the minor's boxing network was exposed, Xiang Tenhui was attacked by online violence, a large number of journalists flocked to the club, and the club was forced to terminate, in order to give the children a good future, he decided to transfer them to a larger club.
But this club is black-hearted, one of the two lovers is injured, the other is back to his old business, and he can't extricate himself from the quagmire, and he resolutely chooses to be interviewed and exposed on TV.
Say the famous line at the beginning of this article: "They are not even the ones who lied to them except me!" Faced with the fate of floating stones, Xiang Tenghui once again led the child to attack the octagonal cage.
The artistic value of "In the Octagon Cage" lies in the meaning of social reflection, is he doing this a lie? If there is no Xiang Tenhui, will this group of children become problem teenagers?
Why is there no relative institution to help them, to help them solve the nine-year compulsory education, why do they have to be exposed through martial arts to cause social repercussions?
And "Disappearing Her" him? The script comes from the Russian film "A Trap for a Bachelor", and like Xiao Yang's "Manslaughter" and Feng Xiaogang's "Loyal Dog Bagong", typical takeism.
"Disappearing Her", as a simple suspense genre film, has no broad social significance except for causing family reflection, that is, the adrenaline brought by the reversal is just a little interesting.
Therefore, the originality and social reflection of "In the Octagon Cage" is far higher than that of "Disappearing Her".
Secondly, from Wang Baoqiang and Zhu Yilong personally.
After decades of hard work, Wang Baoqiang has gradually become a well-known Chinese movie star, and has cooperated with many heavyweight filmmakers, including the "stupid root" in Feng Xiaogang's "No Thief in the World"; There is Chen Kaige's "The Taoist Priest Goes Down the Mountain"; The two films are paired with Uranus superstars Andy Lau and Kwok Fucheng.
and collaborated with Huang Bo Xu Zheng in the "People on the Road" series, Chen Sicheng's "Detective Chinatown" trilogy for him, and "The New King of Comedy" directed by Stephen Chow.
There are also well-known "Soldier Assault", "M Well" and "Hello! Mr. Tree", as long as Wang Baoqiang does not go nonsensical comedy and returns to the theme of reality, the probability of the movie breaking out is extremely high, and "In the Octagon" is also his best film work after Mr. Tree.
The only drawback is Ma Rong's first directorial work "Big Trouble Tianzhu".
Wang Baoqiang's personal box office appeal currently ranks 9th, a veritable mainland box office celebrity, whose personal salary once exceeded Andy Lau and Donnie Yen, and tied with Jackie Chan, Wu Jing and Shen Teng.
And Zhu Yilong? In his early years, he mainly focused on TV series, and later gradually transformed to the big screen, and the route he is now taking is very similar to Hu Ge.
There are not many people who have successfully transformed TV series actors, except for Yi Yangqianxi, there are only Hu Ge, Wang Yibo and Zhu Yilong.
Last year, "Life Events" starring Yang En again won 1.712 billion box office, and won the Golden Rooster Award for actor with the role of Mo Sanmei.
This year's "Disappearing Her" broke 400 million at the box office in two days, and the final box office landing point will be about 1.3 billion, and Zhu Yilong in the mainland film industry can shoulder this heavy task.
I learned that Chen Kaige's National Day war blockbuster "Volunteers: Heroic Attack", Zhu Yilong starred again, and the box office outbreak is just around the corner!
In general, Zhu Yilong became famous later, and Wang Baoqiang was obviously better.
But Zhu Yilong's age advantage and image temperament are there, and in time, it will be the next Yi Yangqianxi.
In your mind, who is better to look at "Disappearing Her" or "In the Octagon"?
