Movie information
According to Beacon Professional Edition, as of 15:00 on November 3, the top five box office movies this Friday are: "Rescue the Suspect", "Mistake by the River", "Volunteers: Soldiers Attack", "Second Hand Masterpiece" and "Solid as a Rock".
Among them, "Rescue the Suspect" was originally scheduled to be released on November 3, but the film was screened in advance on October 28 and 29. The two-day screenings were 9.3% and 14.8% respectively. This is actually the same as a release. On October 30 and 31, the film will continue to be screened at a rate of more than ten percent per day. On October 31, "Rescue the Suspect" was announced to be moved to November 1.
It can be seen that "Rescuing Suspect" also wants to replicate the model of "The Octagon", "The Lost Girl", "All or Nothing" and other films that were released in advance to win word of mouth and box office. However, judging from the current box office performance of just over 100 million, "Saving Suspect" still needs to be "saved", and the recent sluggish box office market in the mainland also needs to be "saved" by one or more blockbusters.
This week, a number of movies have been scheduled or announced to be introduced to the Chinese mainland market, including:
"The Hunger Games: The Ballad of Songbirds and Snakes" poster

"Second Hand Masterpiece"
"Second Hand Masterpiece" Poster
At the beginning of "Second Hand Masterpiece", there is a very important reminder, "This story is purely fictional." Because the movie tells the story of a father and son's "ghostwriting" scandal, it may remind some people of certain doubts in our real lives. Movies may be afraid of the audience's association, but they are also afraid that the audience will not associate it - after all, this association itself is enough to constitute a gimmick, prompting some people to enter the cinema.

The costume romance drama "Le You Yuan" starring Xu Kai and Jing Tian has officially announced that it will be broadcast exclusively on Tencent Video from November 6. The drama is adapted from the novel of the same name by Bandit Wo Sicun.
"Judgment"
"The Sentence" Poster
This drama is honorably produced by the People's Court News Media Headquarters, Shaanxi Cultural Industry (Film and Television) Investment Co., Ltd., and jointly produced by the Film and Television Center of the Supreme People's Court and other units. It is a domestic legal and political drama with strong official endorsement. Wang Qianyuan, Lan Yingying, Yan Yikuan Starring.
The first two episodes of "Murder on a Sea Ship" were enough to arouse the audience's appetite, and Wang Qianyuan's acting skills were also attractive to a certain extent. However, the data after the series started was not very good. Maybe the promotion was too low-key. Until the show started, there were still many people Never heard of this show. In addition, the current judge's scenes are relatively official, and the lines are so serious that it is not necessary for young people to watch them. It is better to watch the standard program directly. It's already the eighth episode, and there are only over 80 short comments on Douban, most of which are exaggerated and contrived, and the editing is confusing.
"I want to go against the wind"
"I'm Going Against the Wind" Poster
Before I even watched the show, I was confused by the publication of "17 mainstream media" that fans were dumping on the data. This drama has attracted much attention since its official announcement. It is adapted from Wei Zai's novel of the same name. It tells the story of the revival of a national brand under the impact of the e-commerce economy. It "portrays China's new generation of entrepreneurs as they face business challenges in the new era. The spirit of innovation that bursts out, and inherits the spiritual core of the older generation of Chinese entrepreneurs who are practical, hardworking and adhering to the national brand." Looking at the synopsis, it feels like this show was made for the times.
It is a bonus that modern puppet dramas have stories based on reality, especially those about national fashion brands, which are also an area of concern for young people. The rebirth of old domestic products, this subject matter has a "burning" flavor. Since the characters of the hero and heroine involve investment banks and brand owners, there are fans who popularize the investment banking profession on Weibo, but... some fans call it the mainland version of "Genesis", which may not be appropriate.
"Healing Lovers"
"Healing Lovers" poster
On November 2, another contemporary puppet drama was launched. The TV series "Healing Lovers" was launched, starring Luo Yunxi and Zhang Ruonan. The drama was adapted from Lemon Yuyan's novel "The Healer" and told the story of neurosurgery guru Gu Yunzheng performing a surgery in Africa. During the rescue mission, she met Su Weian, a medical girl suffering from a rare disease. The two fell in love with each other while fighting side by side, fighting Huntington's disease together and healing each other.
Originally, the theme of overseas medical dramas and love was attractive, but unfortunately, "South Wind Knows My Will" was aired before this one. Similar themes and configurations are all based on the overseas medical industry. In this way As a result, the audience's freshness was worn away a bit, making it look old-fashioned. In addition, the story itself does not have many outstanding features. It is still the routine of some idol dramas. It is nothing more than replacing some of the "values" and then reintroducing them.
The current broadcast data of the series is not very good. The two or three related hot searches on Weibo are all about the male protagonist himself, such as the relationship between the characters in the fantasy linkage Tantai Jin, and there is not much discussion around CP.
I think it is more serious to stop curing lovers first and quickly cure the life of contemporary young people, which is full of life and death.

"Fengshen Training Camp"
As a spin-off of the "Fengshen" movie, it has been fan-oriented from the beginning. However, because of the "from amateur to actor" setting of the program, it produced the effect of "draft replacement". Yu Shi’s speech at the end of the training camp had a special sense of being in a group - "If there are other movies in the future, I will be the same. I will always remember the first time I walked into the set. Those who know, until now. I don’t know what kind of person I will become in the future, but I still remember the first time I went to shoot. I just hope that I can treat everyone well like I did in "Fengshen". In every scene of the project, become a good actor and cooperate well with every film team. Thank you everyone."

Oh, there is good news. "Fengshen Training Camp" was originally scheduled for 6 issues, but now there are more updates, and there will be another issue next Thursday. I hope Mango directors can find some interesting new materials from director Wu Ershan’s 180T resources.
