After watching "Disappearing Her", I want to say: In the future, Chen Sicheng must not be underestimated again

I don't think anyone expected it.

The domestic film "Disappearing Her" will be so popular.

In 10 days of release, the box office has exceeded 2 billion.

And this has just begun, according to the daily box office upward trend, "Disappearing Her" has fallen at the box office for many consecutive days, and the final box office estimate given by the professional platform is 3.38 billion.

You know, this time is not like the Spring Festival file, the audience has a concentrated outbreak of viewing demand. Nor is it really a summer season, when many students don't have a vacation yet. "Disappearing Her" just took advantage of the Dragon Boat Festival schedule to make a little effort.

Moreover, the box office is gratifying, and the audience discussion is also wave after wave, and new audiences who have watched the movie continue to join. Even People's Daily, Xinhua News Agency, People's Daily and many other media also commented and praised, praising the high quality of the film "Disappearing Her" and the good reputation of the audience.

After watching the movie, many viewers said bluntly: After watching this movie, I was so scared that my phone couldn't hold it steadily.

Believe it or not, "Disappearing Her" has become the number one dark horse in this year's domestic film market, black out of the sky.

I think there are three reasons why the film was successful.

1: Will empathize

After watching "Disappearing Her", you have to ask me what is the most direct perception, I will say immersion.

From the first second of the movie, I unconsciously empathized with the characters in the play, and I experienced all the delicate emotions of the characters in the play, and after watching the 120-minute movie, I seemed to have lived half a life.

He Fei (played by Zhu Yilong) at the beginning of the innocent state, coupled with the combination of virtual and real pictures, gives people the feeling of being real.

Several times, I really thought that something terrible happened to his wife Li Muzi, and I couldn't help but think of those legends and stories that everyone passed around.

And at the end, when the truth came out, I seemed to be instantly woken up by a large basin of ice water.

For a moment, I flashed back to the previous images in my mind, and I had a sudden realization. But for a moment, I couldn't believe the many plots in the movie.

The actors in the play are really acting too similar. This story is also too cruel, I can't bear to believe the truth.

Moreover, I am not the only one who feels this way, and several friends around me have given me feedback. Both men and women, after watching this movie, and then watching their partners, they feel that the other party is strange, and they can't sleep at night, and they only slow down after sleeping.

Seriously, I'm really afraid that one day I or my relatives will suddenly disappear, I dare not imagine it.

2: There is acting

"Disappearing Her" starring Zhu Yilong, Ni Ni, Wen Yongshan.

In addition to the empathy of the plot, I think the success of "Disappearing Her" is also inseparable from the acting skills of these three leading actors.

Wen Yongshan's acting skills are changeable, and the various reversal small expressions of Li Muzi (fake) are portrayed, sexy for a while, gloomy for a while, and fierce for a while, which makes you shudder. Flaming red lips, flowing long dress, simply not too glamorous.

The reason why the early plot of "Disappearing Her" can instantly bring the audience into the play is inseparable from Wen Yongshan's excellent performance.

And Ni Ni, throughout the movie, when Wen Yongshan showed off her skills madly at the beginning, Ni Ni showed absolute calmness. The acting skills are sophisticated and solid, although there are not too many pompous facial expressions.

But whether it is body movements, or lips and eyes, it is all drama, and Ni Ni's performance exceeded my expectations.

Then, there was Zhu Yilong.

To be honest, I originally thought that in "Life Events", Zhu Yilong played the third brother, and he had exhausted his acting skills and reached his peak. Unexpectedly, in "Disappearing Her", Zhu Yilong refreshed my cognition again.

Although "Disappearing Her" has always had a main line of finding a wife, in fact, watching the entire movie, I think it has always been Zhu Yilong's acting skills that are advancing the plot. The plot of the film constantly rises and turns according to his various emotional reactions, and the flashpoints of various dramatic conflicts are also revealed through his rich facial expressions.

Even, until the last moment, Zhu Yilong was using his tears to advance the plot and interpret the complex emotions in the Easter egg.

All the acting skills are online, which is an important reason why "Disappearing Her" has been widely praised.

3: Understand the audience

Chen Sicheng's masterpiece is "Detective Chinatown".

This movie seems to be a comedy movie on the surface, but it gives you a real sense of suspense.

While being funny, he did not give up his control of the suspense rhythm, and the audience watched the whole movie, both laughing, and at the same time enjoying the pleasure of burning the brain, feeling like watching two movies, and having a feeling of earning.

In a relaxed viewing environment, let you feel the charm of suspense films, not to be depressed throughout the process, and the experience is worth it.

And "Manslaughter" is the main high-quality suspense. At that time, although domestic movies were constantly blockbuster, there were not many real high-quality suspense movies. Such themes, for many years, have been in excess of supply.

Therefore, Chen Sicheng decisively aimed at this blue ocean track, as long as the movie is well shot, the shot is a victory.

As for this 2023 "Disappearing Him", Chen Sicheng has accumulated a lot of experience in suspense films. It also starts from the classic stories that the audience is familiar with.

Integrating his best "reversal" and "white space" into it and striving for perfection made this film successful.

4: Understand the market

"Disappearing Her" has this achievement.

The audience sighed: How is it Chen Sicheng again! How is it always Chen Sicheng! Dark horse addicted?

Yes, this time it was Chen Sicheng.

Over the years, unconsciously, Chen Sicheng has become a box office dark horse many times in a row, but all the film works he has participated in, whether as a director, screenwriter, or producer, generally have good box office results, and can far exceed everyone's expectations.

In 2015, Chen Sicheng directed the commercial comedy suspense film "Detective Chinatown", before the release of this movie, Chen Sicheng was relatively successful as an actor, but as a director, he was still a novice in the eyes of the audience and was not optimistic.

However, after the release of the film, the audience's reputation rose all the way, winning a box office of 823 million, becoming the dark horse of the box office that year. Moreover, after the subsequent film was taken offline, the audience's reputation continued to ferment, and Chen Sicheng started his personal signature with this film.

In 2018, Chen Sicheng came with "Detective Chinatown 2", although it is said that there is a fan accumulation of the first part. However, there are few successful cases of a series of movies in China, and everyone is also not optimistic about this "Detective Chinatown 2".

However, Chen Sicheng once again surprised the audience, and as a dark horse, he won 3.397 billion box office and achieved great success.

In 2019, Chen Sicheng supervised the production of "Manslaughter" and released it. For this movie, because it was not directed by Chen Sicheng, the audience did not care at first, thinking that it was just an ordinary domestic suspense film and could not set off much storms.

However, everyone knows the results.

The audience once again underestimated Chen Sicheng, although he is only a producer, but ensures the basic tonality of "Manslaughter", after the film was released, with a good reputation, set off a wave of suspense drama viewing frenzy, won 1.333 billion box office, and became a dark horse again.

Huge commercial films, Chen Sicheng hand-to-hand, small-cost suspense films, Chen Sicheng is also not a problem.

The same is true for this "Disappearing Her", I believe everyone may expect that this movie may win about 1.3 billion at the box office like "Manslaughter", but that's enough.

Unexpectedly, "Disappearing Her" only took 10 days to get 2 billion, far beyond everyone's expectations.

For 4 consecutive times, Chen Sicheng's film has become a box office dark horse.

I think the audience should no longer look down on Chen Sicheng.

Combined with years of observation, I think Chen Sicheng's strength is that he not only understands the audience, but also understands the market.
