"Avatar: Way of Water"
A few days ago, Yu Dong, chairman of Bona Films, commented on the current "Avatar: The Way of Water" when he attended the Forum of the 4th Hainan Island Film Festival. It has gradually drifted away from today's Chinese movie viewing habits, which has led Chinese audiences to prefer domestic movies, and film and television works that revolve around Chinese stories and are in line with China's national conditions and Chinese culture."
Stills of "Avatar: Way of Water"
Comments that are not combined with reality can only be empty talk. Indeed, the estimated total box office of "Avatar: The Way of Water" in mainland China has been lowered from more than two billion before the opening to less than one billion at present. As of 15:00 on December 23, the film's mainland box office is only 538 million Yuan, far below market expectations.
But what caused the current situation is only because of the movie itself? Not necessarily so. The opening film of this year's Hainan Island Film Festival was suddenly withdrawn again, which shows that domestic filmmakers are not optimistic about the recent box office trend.

【Variety】
"Decibels Are Escaping"
To say that the most popular combination from beginning to end in 2022 should be the brothers "0713". Its popularity has never dropped. According to Zhang Yuan's words, "little chores" continue.
However, "Happy Restart", which set the highest score in the Douban variety show, also began to be criticized in the second season. Most of them were "happiness is not pure" and "value comes first". There is no way, after people become popular, many stalks that could be thrown away before have to be put away.
"Decibels on the Run" poster
Fortunately, audiences who just want to have fun can still find a substitute from their bunch of "little jobs". For example, two episodes of "Decibels Are Escaping", although only Su Xing and Zhang Yuan came to 0713, but the audience can still find the old feeling of 0713, the games are still those games over and over again, Su Xing and Zhang Yuan obviously play well Open and catchable, plus Zhang Yuan was acquainted with Yu Gengyin and Zhao Rang in "Bright Days", the chemistry is right.
"100% Open Wheat"
This year, due to various reasons, there is a shortage of stages. Because of this, it has been said on the Internet that domestic entertainment lacks stages. This is right or wrong. For example, CCTV Music Channel (CCTV15) has had a program called "Global Chinese Music List" for many years. The brothers of 0713 were on this program two years ago. Time to blow. Blockbuster TV's "The Best Stage" has never stopped.
Of course, on a larger platform, there are not no music ensembles, but the old ones are always invited.
In the fourth quarter of this year, there were a few interesting audio comprehensives, such as Youku's "Chaoyang Dage Center", and "100% Kaimic", which started broadcasting this week. They all have a characteristic, the stage is simple, exuding a poor temperament, but they mainly focus on full-open wheat, pure stage, and meet friends through music.
"100% Kaimai" previously promoted copywriting
As far as the author has heard it, the audience can still hear the singing skills regardless of the later stage. There is no shortage of copywriting for internal entertainment, but singing skills are required for internal entertainment.
"Come to our concert"
I really didn't expect that this show would be so short, and it reached the finals in only four episodes. Last week, were you immersed in the singing of the old brother 0713, and were you surprised by the stage performance of "Born to Fly" by guest INTO1?
