“A Discussion on ‘The Tuner’ and Xian Yu.”

This was the headline of the news on the sub-section of the Literature and Art Gazette.

The content was akin to a film review:

“Speaking of plot reversals in films, it is the most common technique in suspense films and also a touchstone for testing screenwriters. During the viewing process, viewers will constantly guess the next direction based on the existing plot. Yet reality often upends the situation and turns it in a completely opposite direction, making the film more eye-catching and whetting the viewers’ appetites, even repeatedly surprising them that it can be done this way?”

“The first shot of the film actually lays the groundwork.”

“This is a scene that seems to have nothing to do with the story of the sound mixer: a hunter chasing a rabbit in a vegetable field.”

(vitag.Init = window.vitag.Init || []).push(function(){viAPItag.display(“vi_765923973”)})

“Who is this hunter? Where is this scene? What circumstances led to this chase? For the rabbit, the director provides a close-up of a rabbit with one eye that can’t open and one that is totally blind, what is this aiming to express?”

“There are many questions.”

“Only after watching the film do we understand that it is a cyclical structure; the sound at the beginning is the setup for the ending.”

“Metaphor and irony, this film achieves a high standard in suspense movies right from its structure.”

“Only after watching the film do we realize that the closed eye of the blind rabbit is reminiscent of the main character’s choice to remain silent and close his eyes to conscience when repeatedly confronted with the injustice and truths of reality?”

“This is the impact and thought brought to us by Xian Yu’s new film ‘The Tuner’.”

“And speaking of Xian Yu, the most basic impression most people have of him is that of a music composer. But with a work like ‘Mariage d’Amour’, perhaps we should call this Maestro Junior a composer. And it was this composer who chose to venture into film while his career was flourishing.”

“I believe many people, like me, were dumbfounded when they first heard that Xian Yu was going to make a film.”

“In a situation where no one was optimistic, Xian Yu completed a film called ‘Flirting Scholar’ and broke the view count record for web-based cinema. It added a new style of absurd comedy to Blue Star’s comedies, and we suddenly realized…”

“Xian Yu is not just a composer, he is also a core screenwriter.”

“But we are still limited by our inherent views. We thought that besides composing, Xian Yu was also good at writing scripts for comedies. But then we were presented with ‘The Tuner’, with its genius, plot reversal, astonishing moments, metaphors, and satire.”

“This seemingly incompatible style with absurd comedy, Xian Yu also played it skillfully.”

(vitag.Init = window.vitag.Init || []).push(function(){viAPItag.display(“vi_765923973”)})

“Some say that talent is common. I didn’t believe it before, but now, perhaps we can try to believe that there really are people in the world who can handle both music and film concurrently. Xian Yu is not only worth remembering in the music world, but also worthy of attention in the film world!”

“In the future, we can not only look forward to Xian Yu’s music, but also his films.”

“It is undeniable that ‘The Tuner’ actually has some logical flaws. Because it over-pursues plot reversal, it inevitably has logical gaps. The identity of the composer is not an excuse for us to forgive the imperfections of Xian Yu’s works, but it is enough to be the reason why we are willing to wait for this newcomer in the film industry to grow.”

“As the saying goes, things shouldn’t be done more than three times.”

“Xian Yu’s first film, ‘Flirting Scholar’, was a big hit, perhaps some people could consider it good luck.”

“But when Xian Yu handed over a film called ‘The Tuner’ with a higher level of scripting, we should look forward to the more exciting surprises he can bring in the future. He is a successful musician and a genius filmmaker.”

“…”

This was the introduction and analysis of Xian Yu on the sub-page. And when such an introduction appears on the page of the Literature and Art Gazette, it is undoubtedly a happy event for the boost in box office revenue.

In fact.

The public’s attention has indeed gradually shifted from ‘Mariage d’Amour’, to this film by Xian Yu. This can be seen from the comments beneath the piano composition:

“After listening to the piece, I decided to go see the movie.”

“Everyone says ‘The Tuner’ is full of twists, it is itching in my heart, I have already bought the ticket.”

(vitag.Init = window.vitag.Init || []).push(function(){viAPItag.display(“vi_765923973”)})

“The piece was composed around the film, it’s worth it for me to buy a ticket for the sake of the composition.”

“Usually it is film and television works that drive music, but ‘The Tuner’ has used music to drive the popularity of the film.”

“After listening to the piece, I watched the movie the same day. The last shot was a sight for the audience!”

“…”

In the following days, the box office began to skyrocket!

Starting with billions, this film became an indispensable hit in its release period.

After the first week, it directly garnered over 300 million at the box office, causing numerous shocks in the film industry!

It’s not about how high the box office is… this box office performance is not explosive…

But you have to know that the cost of ‘The Tuner’ is only ten million. This is a classic case of making a large amount from a small one!

Although this is not the first time that Xian Yu has made a large amount from a small one, last time Xian Yu did not participate in the box office battle, there was no direct reflection of the box office, so the impression was not very intuitive.

This time Xian Yu has shown off his skill of making a large amount from a small one in front of numerous filmmakers!

Of course.

(vitag.Init = window.vitag.Init || []).push(function(){viAPItag.display(“vi_765923973”)})

Just like last time.

The market after the merger of Qin, Qi, and Chu is very large, and the box office of ‘The Tuner’ in the first week was indeed shocking, but it is still unable to contend for the weekly box office crown with big productions.

Because there are too many works at the same time…

This is several times the number of films on Earth at the same time!

The range of choices for viewers is terrifying!

But considering the return on investment, this film did indeed explode!

After all, what everyone compares is not the total box office, but who makes more money!

This sparked a broader discussion in the film circle.

“Why is it always a small investment for a big return? Can’t it be done in a different way? I’m so jealous my eyes are red!”

“Ah, Xian Yu’s operation mode reveals the incompetence of many old industry veterans.”

“It’s not the veterans who are incapable, but this newcomer is a bit uncanny.”

“It seems that in the future, Xian Yu will also be a person who cannot be ignored in the schedule.”

(vitag.Init = window.vitag.Init || []).push(function(){viAPItag.display(“vi_765923973”)})

“After riding the popularity of the Qin and Chu music battle, I knew the rhythm of this wave was going to explode when I first found out about the genre and cost of ‘The Tuner’. I didn’t expect that it made 300 million in a week!”

“Why should Starlight dig out filmmakers from Qi Province? They should just hold on tight to Xian Yu.”

“This is a prodigy who has emerged!”

“…”

Speaking of the influence of different circles, Xian Yu is still unable to shake off the title of newcomer in the film circle. However, after this wave, everyone’s attention to Xian Yu has naturally taken a step up.

The outside world is already like this.

Not to mention Starlight.

When Ol’ Zhou got the first week’s box office for ‘The Tuner’, the entire company’s film department was in a state of stupefaction.

“Did we make a profit again?”

“No, we made a killing.”

“Or should our film department change its name to the Composition Department? It seems like we, a group of filmmakers, have to rely on this Maestro Junior for our reputation?”

“But we have to admit, Xian Yu’s script this time was really good.”

(vitag.Init = window.vitag.Init || []).push(function(){viAPItag.display(“vi_765923973”)})

Last time, even though ‘Flirting Scholar’ was a big hit, there were still voices of disapproval within the company, because many people didn’t understand the script.

This time was different!

The pure script quality made ‘The Tuner’ a success. Even with the popularity of the music, it couldn’t overshadow Xian Yu’s talent in scriptwriting!

It almost seems like Xian Yu deliberately won this time in a way that everyone could understand.

It was as if Xian Yu, in front of the film department, demonstrated the same operation and then asked the film department a question:

“Did you understand this time?”
