Break free from the octagonal cage! How does Wang Baoqiang return this broom？

Special feature of 1905 film network On July 6, the director’s official release. The film was released for 10 days, and the box office broke 1.3 billion with a score of 7.5.

Wang Baoqiang once made a speech when receiving the award of "the most disappointing director": "Being a director for the first time really lacks experience, and there are many places that I know are insufficient. This time I owe the audience one time."

Indeed, six years ago, Wang Baoqiang suffered a career blow because of his directorial debut. Although he earned 750 million box office, his score was as low as 3.7. Therefore, Wang Baoqiang became "the most disappointing director" and even was ridiculed as "the king of bad movies".

Now, looking back at "Make a scene in Tianzhu" from "The Octagonal Cage", how can Wang Baoqiang return this "disappointment" after six years of breaking away from the "Octagonal Cage"? How does Wang Baoqiang return this broom?

"In the octagonal cage" is showing. It is not only a competitive film, but also reflects on social hot spots to some extent. A number of film critics visited this column and publicly scored more than 7 points.

"Sincerity" has become a valuable trait for Wang Baoqiang to gain recognition from the audience.

Looking back at "Make a Big Trouble in Tianzhu", is the ultra-low douban score of 3.7 really appropriate?

The story lacks thinking.

"Make a Big Scene in Tianzhu" was filmed in India, but the director Wang Baoqiang was not familiar with the national characteristics and film language of India, and applied the hot "embarrassing" series of box office routines in South Asia and Southeast Asia at that time.

Type "brainless" hybrid

"Make a scene in Tianzhu" is a blend of musical films, martial arts films, comedies and other genres, with various and complicated genre elements, which makes the film chaotic and disorderly, just like a farce.

Excessive pursuit of profit

The ten brands that cooperate want to be exposed in the film, but the brand implantation is very blunt, and only a handful of them are related to the plot.

Catch up with the schedule regardless of quality

The special effects also seem to be young, and the front and back are separated. In order to catch the release in the Spring Festival file on the first day of the New Year’s Day, the later special effects were completed by three companies.

I believe that the audience who saw the "Style" of "Big Trouble in Tianzhu" in that year also had the same feelings as Xiaobian. The film gave people a sense of haste and immaturity. Wang Baoqiang didn’t have a completely clear understanding and execution route of this failed work with a score of 3.7, so "Make a fuss in Tianzhu" was hastily produced and released with the mentality of "following the hot spot", "following the trend" and "piling up elements". Word-of-mouth reviews can also be imagined.

Indeed, Wang Baoqiang was almost drowned by the thunderous abuse such as "vulgar jokes", "grandiose performances" and "plot insulting IQ". Make a scene in Tianzhu became one of Wang Baoqiang’s hearts.

In 2017, when "Make a scene in Tianzhu" suffered "the whole network was blacked out", Wang Baoqiang was a guest of "Today’s Film Review" with the film critics, frankly facing the sharp comments of netizens and taking this window to apologize to the audience.

Wang Baoqiang frankly lacks the ability to grasp the overall situation. But in the face of "Wang Baoqiang, can you also be a director? You’d better go back to being an actor. It’s no use trying. " When questioned, he said: "I don’t agree." It is this new director who doesn’t accept "a stick is killed" and always believes that through his own efforts, he will prove that he can become a good director one day.

In the following six years, Wang Baoqiang seemed to fade out of the audience’s sight. The film released belongs to the works shot before 2017. These six years only played the role of good brothers, and the rest of the time seems to be devoted to the creation of "octagonal cage"

This time, Wang Baoqiang didn’t try so hard to prove himself, but waited for a story that suited him. The children in the mountains of The Octagonal Cage are faced with the heavy and difficult situation, which Wang Baoqiang is most familiar with since childhood. Wang Baoqiang is no longer an impetuous director who juggled the "farce" in those years, but began to understand what a film is and what a director is. He began to throw out questions belonging to his own world and look for answers in his heart.

Six years later, at the premiere of "The Octagonal Cage", Wang Baoqiang accepted the first review by media people, film critics, film peers and audiences, and was interviewed by many media.

You know, before it was released on July 6th, "In the Octagonal Cage" started three rounds of screening, and the box office only broke 300 million, and the word of mouth continued to heat up. During this period, Wang Baoqiang’s "Sincere Filter" harvest received numerous praises. "Good popularity in the circle" has made a group of filmmakers stand for it. This time, Wang Baoqiang is full of confidence in the film.

"I am very grateful to" Make a fuss ",which has made me grow a lot." Wang Baoqiang faced up to this 3.7-point directorial debut in interviews many times.

In the interview program of Today’s Film Review’s Film Critics Review, Wang Baoqiang once again reviewed the "storm" of "Make a scene in Tianzhu" six years ago. This time, Bao Qiang seemed a little embarrassed: "At that time, the first movie" Make a Big Trouble in Tianzhu ",the audience was very moved because I went to the cinema to watch it, but after seeing it in the cinema, I didn’t meet their expectations and let them down. In fact, I Wang Baoqiang was very sad and sorry for the audience."

At this point, Xiao Bian’s mind has a scene in which Wang Baoqiang personally attended the "Most Disappointing Director" award.

In fact, Wang Baoqiang is not the first filmmaker to be named "the most disappointing director", but he is the first director to face the title directly. Nowadays, carrying "In the Octagonal Cage" to break through the cage, this turnaround battle must inspire and take care of the personal experiences of many people in the circle.

In the industry, there are countless directors who play well and guide. Is one of them. Deng Chao’s performance as an actor in the film is obvious to the audience, and his acting skills are extraordinary. However, when he was a director, his first and second works, to some extent, were similar to "Make a scene in Tianzhu", both of which belonged to "farce style". Until now, industry experts gradually recognized Deng Chao’s director level. To, it is reached the best level of Deng Chao and cooperation. However, the audience gradually lost their trust in their directed works. Even if the film critics and the media vindicated China Ping-Pong’s Return to the Jedi for many times, it would be hard to escape the dismal ending at the box office.

He is also a filmmaker whose road to directing is by no means smooth. Dapeng has been in control of his own home since the online drama diors man (series). However, he was seriously questioned in his two works, which also brought a big blow to Dapeng. Until the appearance of.

Looking at some actors who act and guide, we will find that even wrestling, detouring or re-establishing the rules and cognition of the world is the only way.

In addition, we have also seen many directors, whether they have only one work or made many films, they have never been recognized by the audience. In the face of accusations from the industry and the audience, he will be angry, attack, and shift the blame to others, or think that you don’t understand me, but Wang Baoqiang didn’t. Despite the resistance of the economic team, he stubbornly went to the scene to receive this disgraceful "commendation", frankly faced the most disappointing director title, found problems from himself, and then rose up to review himself and pulled the game back.

In this way, Wang Baoqiang has actually done very well, and his second work has achieved a balance between word-of-mouth and box office, although there is a gap of six years.

The epidemic situation, the director’s debut was unfavorable, Wang Baoqiang didn’t make comedies, and the script was not commercial. In the financing stage of the film "The Octagonal Cage", Wang Baoqiang was unable to refute the above four reasons for refusal. No matter how extravagant they say and how many times they express their confidence, investors always ignore them.

Indeed, the circle is so small, a capital withdrawal, the negative voice is like a domino, and every investor has launched investment one after another. Collective divestment has become the biggest difficulty before the launch of octagonal cage.

"Chen Sicheng helped me with all the expenses in the later stage of the movie. When Chen Sicheng knew about it, he said,’ Brother, don’t worry when you need me most.’ "

With the help of my good brothers, Wang Baoqiang’s second work "In the Octagonal Cage" was quietly finished in the voice that was not optimistic.

Before the film was released, Wang Baoqiang did not hesitate to mobilize friends in the circle to support him in order to get good results in the film.

Nearly 20 years ago, the crew friends specially sent voice blessings; Invited to sing the theme song. Amirkhan also call for it. He praised Wang Baoqiang as "one of the best directors".

Wang Baoqiang seems to have really fulfilled the promise of that year, and let the audience see the qualitative improvement. Perhaps The Octagonal Cage is the real beginning of Wang Baoqiang as a director.

The director should take time to hone himself, not to say that in order to produce a work, to follow the trend or to be a hot spot, to say that I can make a quick money at the right time, and then I will join the industry very quickly. Because every time you appear on the big screen, it is actually a precious opportunity. Every time you don’t pay enough sincerity, you are also killing the possibility of a director’s future.

Wang Baoqiang, as a grassroots star who entered the entertainment circle from the countryside and Shaolin Temple, wandered in such a bustling and overwhelmed world of flowers and flowers. He must have been ridiculed and suffered a profound blow from his intimate relationship … … Each of these experiences is an annotation of The Octagonal Cage.

We all say that the best works directed by a director all his life are often biased towards his autobiography. Because it contains all the director’s understanding of life and the answer he wants. Looking back on Wang Baoqiang’s previous comedy roles, he is a clown who please others. Although The Octagonal Cage is not a perfect work, it is full of Wang Baoqiang’s review of his life. He really began to build his own world outlook and values.

At present, the box office of movies has exceeded 1.3 billion. Obviously, "octagonal cage" has already achieved both box office and word of mouth.

The pertinent voice is particularly precious.

There are a lot of materials in the early publicity. In fact, it is not easy to review Wang Baoqiang’s recent years, analyze his own mental journey and get the sympathy of the audience. Frankly speaking, we do have to admit that Wang Baoqiang is an endorsement of the spirit of being simple and honest, struggling and then struggling like Xu Sanduo.

Therefore, especially friends in third-and fourth-tier cities, they feel that supporting Wang Baoqiang is just like supporting their own attitude towards life. Therefore, marketing it in this way is not only a wonderful chess, but also a dangerous chess.

If Wang Baoqiang didn’t cherish the trust that this audience cast with movie tickets after "Make a Big Scene in Tianzhu", he might also get a lot of self-criticism, which would consume his last tolerance. But the good thing is that this time in the octagonal cage, I still handed over an answer sheet that I feel satisfied with.

Secondly, for a director who has just had two works, he still needs to be cautious when he hears the voice of praise. In particular, the praise is not only because the film itself has made progress compared with the previous film, but also because of everyone’s sympathy. As a mature creator who has passed the age of no doubt, Director Wang Baoqiang should especially listen to more criticisms and suggestions.

Xiaobian also hopes that Baoqiang can constantly feel and hone in life, and then turn the treasures brought by these feelings and tempering into works and dedicate them to everyone.

On the evening of July 19th, Wang Baoqiang will be a guest of CCTV-6 "Today’s Film Review" after six years, so please look forward to it!
