Friends who have not seen "Qingyaji" and "The Bath King" in the cinema, you have no "eye luck", because from January 4, you will no longer see these two films in the cinema.
The specific reason has not been officially announced.
First of all, let's talk about "The King of Bathing", one of the reasons is that it has been released on the network broadcast platform, such as a certain news video, the paid viewing mode, and the membership needs 6 yuan.
I think this movie has a laugh point and a tear point in the end, but at the beginning of the film fell into a copyright and plagiarism storm, and there was a dispute with the Korean comic "God of Bath", and later director Yi Xiaoxing personally clarified that the two works have no similarities.
However, at the same time, some senior fans pointed out that "The Bath King" is extremely similar to the American 1987 romantic comedy "Falling Water Marriage", and even it is not so simple as a similarity, it is simply a reproduction.
"Falling Water Marriage"
"Falling into the Water Marriage" is about a bitter and mean female rich woman who pushes a male carpenter who asks for a reward into the water, and a few days later, the female rich man falls into the water and loses her memory, is met by a male carpenter, who looks at the money and the male carpenter coaxes him to go home, and then the two gradually develop feelings.
"The King of Bathing", Peng Yuchang played by the rich second generation, also on his toes, at the beginning of the demand for remuneration, Qiao Shan played by the bather pushed into the water, the rich second generation after the parachuting accident fell into the water amnesia, and then was met by Qiao Shan in the hospital, but also to see that in the share of being able to recover the remuneration, Qiao Shan lied that he was his brother and brought it home, and then the two gradually developed feelings.
Yes, the similarity is infinitely close, giving the impression of copying and pasting the same frame.
In any case, this movie that has been released for 23 days has gained 400 million, the release bonus period has passed, and it has earned enough, and it is wise to withdraw to the video platform to continue to make some money, and second, to reduce attention, and to act low-key to avoid the limelight.
As for "Qingya Collection"?
"Qingya Collection" actually bought the film and television adaptation rights of the Japanese magic novel "Yin and Yang Division", and the theater no longer arranged films for it, most likely because of Guo Jingming himself.
As we all know, Guo Jingming and Yu Zheng publicly admitted to being plagiarists on the last night of 2020.
Why are they finally willing to apologize after all these years?
Was it discovered out of guilt conscience?
No, there are no innocents in the entertainment industry, only interests.
Some time ago, screenwriters Yu Fei, Song Fangjin and other 111 people in the film and television industry jointly boycotted Guo Jingming and Yu Zheng, which caused extensive discussion in society and once again pushed the plagiarism and plagiarism of bad deeds to the cusp of public opinion.
Due to the great impact of the incident, Guo Jingming and Yu Zheng are indeed plagiarists who have lost the lawsuit and are not unjust, but they are still active in the front-line programs to seek great benefits, according to netizens, it is the upper leaders who personally intervene and exert pressure, ordering the two people with bad images to appear on the camera to record the program, and they were forced to bow their heads and apologize publicly.
Anyway, Yu Zheng has completely withdrawn from "I Am an Actor", the camera has been deleted and replaced by Zhang Jizhong, and the latest broadcast of the 3rd issue clearly shows that the director and actors have a bit of a coherent jump when commenting.
As for Guo Jingming's "Qingya Collection", due to the heavy gold burned in the production of special effects, the well-known screenwriter Wang Hailin said that it would take 1 billion to return the cost, and as of January 4, the domestic box office of "Qingya Collection" was about 450 million, and it was basically frozen.
