Of course, such information appeared in scattered pieces without any trace. For example, Tan Zhuo practiced hard for a month and a half for a pole dancing scene that lasted less than 20 seconds, and photos of bruises on his legs were released long before the film was released. Appeared.
There is also the scene of veteran actor Yang Xinming, who knows no English at all, reciting a large number of English lines word for word, which is also reflected in the suffix of the film.
These scattered reports spread so quickly on the Internet that even before the first day of release was over, they were regarded as inspirational propaganda and became popular on all major pages.
Especially Liu Hua's wonderful performance in the film, which deeply describes the ordinaryness, humbleness, hardship, struggle and resistance of a little person living at the bottom of society, has since become a classic textbook-style benchmark for character interpretation.
Excavations and comments about the details of his acting skills appear intensively in various comments, and what people talk about most is the heartbeat they feel from him.
Therefore, Liu Hua has become synonymous with his personal image: a real and ordinary little man who does not have the temperament of a "hero" at all. After experiencing this series of distortions, struggles and changes in human nature, he finally stood up and was not afraid of prison. Just to have a clear conscience, he resolutely chose to go back to the "illegal path" and sell medicine to leukemia patients who were struggling on the edge of life and death.
It is the "big love" reflected by this "little" in him that is shocking. The brilliance of human nature also reaches its peak at this moment, including Liu Hua's personal acting career, which also reaches its peak at this moment.
As for Liu Qingshan's comments, they are naturally too numerous to mention, so I won't list them all here.
What should be pointed out here is that foreign media have rarely maintained a consistent approach to this movie, that is, there are more positive reviews than negative reviews, more kindness than faultfinding, more professionalism than amateurism, and more positive than exposing shortcomings.
This phenomenon has a more universal unified attitude than "Ip Man 1", and it truthfully explains the background of the era relatively objectively without any additions or deletions.
"This is a realistic film from China, and its actual significance is greater than the film itself. Death in survival represents the theme of the film, the battle between emotion and law, which is a persistent and acute issue. To a large extent, The theme overcomes the influence and promotes the development of Chinese films. Another magical masterpiece of Alien, a phenomenon-level film is once again born."
"This is not a beautiful story, but it is one of my favorite Chinese movies. Alien's creativity is still unparalleled. Although due to certain factors, many themes are not allowed to be filmed in mainland China, it is obviously Cleverly avoiding conflicts with the government."
"This has nothing to do with the political correctness of the Chinese government. It is just a trade-off between pharmaceutical companies and patients. Yes, when the drug matches the average purchasing power, we can finally obtain the market balance of drug prices. But how much will it be before and after? Human death? Thank you Alien for speaking out for this global topic. He is telling us that life and soul should be placed in this balance, and we look forward to that day coming soon!"
"'I'm Not the God of Medicine' is a film of truly extraordinary significance and a milestone in cinema."
"This is a movie that reflects the excitement of patients in reality when they encounter a life-saving straw when they can no longer live, but later feel even more desperate because of the collapse of this straw. You can also feel the protagonist's emotions and emotions. In the entanglement between rationality and legal medical care, disease, and death, the glory of human nature shines. Although there is no God, there is the glory of the universe. This is the positive energy that "I'm Not the God of Medicine" brings to everyone."
"Although there is no nonsensical comedy, the beginning of the film starts with Tianzhu Divine Oil, which gives the audience a relatively relaxed atmosphere. But as the plot continues to advance, the audience can feel a deep sense of coldness while being funny. and despair. Through the entire film, people can feel more about Alien's profound interpretation of the character and the subversion of every actor's previous performance. It can be said that it is also a collective explosion of acting skills like plastic surgery."
""I'm Not the God of Medicine" not only broke the conventional movie rules - the protagonist always has a halo, but he ended up in jail, and after he was released from prison, he was just an ordinary person. It is also a kind of criticism of the current medical system.
A profound writing on how to overcome shortcomings. Therefore, movies have a profound impact on society and are of great significance. "
"A considerate reminder to moviegoers: It's best to bring your own tissues before going in to watch the movie, because you will burst into tears after you go in."
"Among Asian films, many films published in Tianzhu and Han countries want to express a strong sense of social responsibility, but relatively speaking, there are no corresponding good works published. But after "I'm Not the God of Medicine" entered the American market This regret will be made up for."
"This film must be rated as one of the most conscientious films in recent years. Whether it is the actors' acting skills, plot setting, or camera shooting, it is very professionally presented. On the contrary, there are fewer and fewer of them in the West."
"It can be predicted that "I'm Not the God of Medicine" will be the biggest winner at next year's Oscars, leading all films with multiple nominations."
"Alien is undoubtedly a great god. He has once again demonstrated his genius screenwriting ability to his followers, and also told people that his works are not only business, gore, comedy, and kung fu, but also humanistic care and profound artistry. .”
...
The amount of information Shi Hui collected was too huge, and this was just a small excerpt.
The general consensus is that this is a movie based on realistic themes and full of good intentions, which puts humanistic values first.
It reflects China's "rare" friendly attitude and hopes that world civilization will achieve all-round development in healthy competition. It hopes that such development will bring benefits to people around the world and create miracles for the prosperity of all mankind.
It's also a blend of partial reality, with a great script and great performances, making it one of the best pieces of cinema in recent years.
More importantly, the demands of patients with serious diseases such as cancer that they cannot afford, delay or buy imported life-saving drugs highlight the urgency of promoting solutions to the problem of reducing drug prices and ensuring supply, which is also a global problem.
Although these evaluations have some inherent cognitive biases from foreign media, they are generally similar to domestic evaluations.
Stimulated by such an unbelievably exaggerated buzz, the box office in China, Taiwan, and China that day directly exceeded 300 million.
The initial global box office statistics also suddenly reached 36 million U.S. dollars. This does not include box office data based on total sales of a week, such as the small island country and the cold country, and has not yet begun to be counted.
Especially in the European and American markets, even though the Christmas season has passed, the box office on the first day still shows an indomitable strength, and there is a strong tendency for a comeback with high box office on the second day.
On the first day, it earned a terrifying box office equivalent to more than 500 million Chinese dollars worldwide. After the morning report on the second day, it attracted worldwide attention.
On this day, more theaters joined in, or adjusted the film schedule, but there are still reports that it is difficult to get a ticket in one place from time to time.
This made the movie's topicality soar to the sky, occupying the headlines of almost all entertainment pages.
At this time, Liu Qingshan had already returned to the crew overnight and got back to work.
As for the other members of the Medicine God crew, they also followed him back to the mainland and started a new round of intensive publicity from Yangcheng.
But Liu Qingshan, who returned to the crew, had no time to relax. He and the people around him almost vomited after receiving various calls.
Unsurprisingly, these calls were all invitations to play dates or solicitations for scripts. After the phone ran out of battery, Liu Qingshan stopped turning it on.
The filming of the fight scenes of "Ip Man 2" has basically been completed. The next few days will be spent on various reshoots or the improvement of the fight scenes. .
In this way, Liu Qingshan's burden was much lighter, but he was even busier because he spent almost every day staying up late.
His main task is the rough editing in the later stage. Especially when Kung Fu movies rarely have long dialogues, most of them are trivial splicing of fight scenes, so the workload is quite heavy.
At this moment, Jin Xishan finished filming in Hanguo and came to visit the crew.
And she will stay on the set for a while
time, and then follow the "Ip Man" crew to Shanghai, where they will meet up with the XY girl group, and finally rush directly to the National Television in Kyoto to participate in the rehearsal of the Spring Festival Gala.
In addition to briefly flying back to China to participate in the first round of rehearsals some time ago, the xy girl group also rushed back to Europe and the United States to fulfill several performance contracts.
At present, they are becoming more and more popular in the European and American markets, especially the two English songs, which are ranked high in major charts and are also must-play songs in Europe and the United States.
The only thing I'm not satisfied with is that the girls are almost all pursued by rich second-generation foreigners from various countries. There are even some very persistent guys who follow the girl group in various performances, which makes them very unhappy. trouble.
Because these young foreigners have a lot of tricks to court love, either showing high-profile love scenes at the performance, or giving all kinds of gifts to them.
Liu Qingshan has always had a magnanimous attitude towards this and would not intervene easily. Only when the girls' personal safety is truly threatened will he ask the secret protective forces to intervene.
As for whether the girl will accept this kind of pursuit from overseas, he has a tolerant attitude and everything is subject to the girl's own will. Non-interference is what he has always done.
Fortunately, these girls were able to withstand the temptation and most of them showed obvious resistance.
You must know that among those pursuing, there are many sons of some big international brand owners, or heirs of some multinational entertainment companies. The temptation in this regard is too great for artists.
However, from beginning to end, no member went to the appointment privately, and Liu Qingshan was quite satisfied with this.
