Chapter 164
Unlike ordinary audiences, people in the film and television area watch TV series and movies, but they don’t just watch movies.
This kind of forum is different from the public platform that everyone uses. Most people who can get here are basically fans of various companies who have a more senior understanding of the entertainment industry.
For these people, movies or TV series are the works and resumes of their favorite or rival actors. Compared with lengthy reviews, they pay more attention to and care about the performance of the film.
Generally speaking, the more popular a star is, the more discussion he or she will have here. It is also easy to scroll through the screen when watching TV series and movies.
Of course, this was all before Jie Xichaohuo.
Just like the hot post that was screenshotted when the release date was set, Xie Xichao spent several years to change his image here from "a young and handsome vase that benefits from traffic and is boycotted by everyone" to a new generation of big devil that unifies the aesthetics of the entire region. This can also be regarded as a twisted love-hate relationship...
No, a wonderful story.
In short, while everyone outside was still discussing the plot, fans and passers-by here had already started keeping an eye on the box office of the player, and would record the changes in objective data including box office, attendance, screening schedule, etc. every day.
As soon as the post was published, there were dozens of replies below. During the Chinese New Year, everyone is free and very enthusiastic.
The OP is good at coming up with titles. You are indeed the most self-promoting Mingpai Jie fan in your area. I thought Jiedi had ascended the throne, but when I clicked in, I saw that he is still the third.

Why does the OP have fan status in all the box office posts? Is there any justice in this world? This is really the back garden of fandom.
2L
The original thing
3L
To be honest, it's really because the domestic entertainment industry is so rubbish. Every time xxz releases a work, the public's love for him goes up a point. When everyone else is failing, someone gets a perfect score, and... Anyway, I've watched "The Player" three times.
4L
Ah, the quality of this movie is really high. I was so excited when I watched it for the first time, and I finally calmed down to watch the plot and pictures after watching it for the second time. The camera language is simply amazing, and both the real-life and game-line scenes are particularly gorgeous and heavy, and the special effects are also excellent.
The most important thing is that Jie Xichao is so handsome. How can he act like anything and not be greasy? It makes me so happy TT
5L
The special effects seem to be checked by Jie Xichao, and the acting... why do you think you are in a sadomasochistic relationship with him hhh
But the topic seems to have gone off track, the schedule has been adjusted, it will be No. 1 tomorrow, congratulations in advance
6L
It should have been adjusted a long time ago. I was really annoyed when the fans of the two directors of the first two films came here to stir up trouble. In the end, what was served? Not only was the plot a mess, but they also stuffed the traffic with it...
Oh, they also love to criticize "The Player" together, saying it is a special film for the fans of the second-year middle school and the niche fans. Today is also the day to get the fan status.jpg
7L
It was clear from the Xingshuo incident that age and qualifications are the biggest "black spots" of Jie Xichao.
The fact is that the small-scale films are also sold out today and tickets are hard to come by, while the famous directors' works have weak stamina, all supported by the scheduling and the pretending passers-by.
8L
So what's going on with the filming?
9L
Cinemas also need to make money. It is obvious that the popularity of the first two films is far less than that of the third. They should be anxious to watch. The interference of film producers in scheduling films is vicious competition.
Also, I feel that xxz's team should be working hard
10L
Well, I feel that too...
11L
xxz is really an amazing person. He has strong business ability, and he is also good at dealing with the social skills in the entertainment industry. He also has high IQ and EQ. It seems like a fairy tale that ordinary people can force capital to make concessions, but he did it.
12L
He is the capital now, it is said that even if the top two gods fight, the theaters dare not offend xxz. I felt that he deliberately let it go before.
13L
So are we really going to reach the top? I still can’t believe it. Aren’t we a niche self-entertainment film?
14L
So funny...
Looking at the data, it will be tomorrow or the day after tomorrow.
Wait and see
The Spring Festival period is still long, and this film still has a lot of potential

Facts have proved that netizens have sharp eyes.
The day after the post appeared, the box office rankings quietly changed positions.
"The Player", which was originally ranked third, jumped to first place, although its cumulative box office was only more than 10 million more than the second place.
More than 10 million is a lot, and the black fans and water armies quietly withdrew from the unfavorable situation. The passers-by who followed suit and mocked the film were dumbfounded, but the fans and senior industry insiders who knew the inside story were not surprised. They gloated over the film's misfortune while continuing to write crazily to recommend the film.
However, even the fans could not have anticipated what would happen next.
First, the popularity remained high.
"The Player" is a story-based movie with a uniquely bizarre style. Most importantly, its initial audience is young. Or in other words, the original foundation of this movie is Jie Xichao's fans and Lu Hao. They like not only the movie, but also Jie Xichao. Naturally, I am willing to put in the effort.
Therefore, in addition to various film analyses, various graphic and text secondary creations have also appeared.
Among them, the most famous is a picture of a famous pink painting by Jie Xichao.
This picture shows the final battle scene in the game, but Jie Xichao's clothes are the same as the one he used in the photo when reporting the medical miracle. In front of him is a boss with a hideous face. The side he is on is bright, and the side the boss is on is dark. The whole picture is colorful and the characters are lifelike. The caption is:
Did you do the same, trying your best to come to us?
This big fan is a professional painter and has many fans.
This picture was forwarded a lot almost instantly.
No one has forgotten the medical miracle of that time. The subtle fit between Xie Xichao's own experience and the character is itself an important topic of the film.
Of course, this kind of thing is more like a shadow to the person involved. But he himself did not mean to be secretive. He spoke openly in several interviews and even said with a smile that he was a lucky man favored by fate.
This attitude of just laughing it off moved many people. This incident also made the movie "The Player" more popular.
Besides that, there are other characters in the play.
The movie "The Player", with its elements of fighting, passion, fantasy, etc., is actually a movie that sublimates its core through empathy. In other words, its core still lies in "people" themselves.
The people here include not only the distinctive characters in the play: the protagonist He Miao, who appears to be unruly but retains a soft and stubborn heart, the weird lead singer Fan Xing who tries to dedicate his life to art, the head teacher who earnestly hopes that every one of his students can leave their predicament, and the players who choose virtual immortality because of the various things they encounter in reality.
The film doesn't focus much on the other characters, but the few strokes they have are all distinctive, and different audiences can see their own shadows in different people. If you can empathize, you will have feelings. Almost every character in the play that can be named has been discussed and has his or her own secondary creation.
Of course, there is also CP.
Jie Xichao and Xuan Yang can be considered a classic combination that started out by playing with memes.
At the beginning, people basically supported these two to mock Jie Xichao for his wrong decisions. But things are unpredictable. Who would have thought that the unknown director that Jie Xichao found from somewhere was actually a talented player.
After their second collaboration, these two have a large number of genuine CP fans.
They were quite generous about this. He neither tried to avoid suspicion nor tried to steal the traffic password. Just ordinary promotional activities and normal interactions are enough to make CP fans go crazy.
The wonderful original content, the re-creation of the characters, and the blessing of CP make this movie, which is only two and a half hours long, have an infinitely extended life.
The most direct manifestation of this is the box office.

When the box office of "The Player" exceeded 1 billion, the entire crew held a live broadcast to celebrate.
The live broadcast is quite casual, but it also has a star-studded feel. There is a barbecue stall in front of the office building and many people come. Not far away, Dewey was chatting with Ji Yan, whom he hadn't seen for a long time, and everyone at TP gathered together to talk about the latest announcement. And there is even a new boy band from "Super New" 4.
Jie Xichao had a poor appetite these past two days. He didn't eat himself, but fed the cat. After the kitten finished eating, it pulled at his trouser legs and asked him to hold it. He picked it up, but before he could say anything, Ji Yan stuffed a piece of cantaloupe into his mouth.
"The box office has reached 1 billion." He said, "Boss Jie, as an investor, what do you think?"
1 billion, which is a very impressive result for a film with a not-so-popular subject matter and a diversion from other films during the Spring Festival.
Xie Xichao swallowed the cantaloupe and thought seriously for a while: "Well... every movie ticket has helped me achieve my great ideal of not losing money on investment in the new year. I would like to express my most sincere gratitude to everyone."
Ji Yan laughed out of the camera.
After Xie Xichao came back, he was not only relaxed, but his sense of humor also improved.
The comments on the comment board were also very funny, with people commenting frantically: “Ahhh, I’ll give you some more help!”
Xie Xichao coughed and said, "Buy as needed, buy as needed. I was kidding."
"I'm not short of money," he said.
Ji Yan readily agreed: "Then give me some."
Xie Xichao:.
"You still dream faster," he said.
Ji Yan doesn't dream. Ji Yan is going to cause trouble.
He also watched "The Player" and his intuition told him that the film could achieve even greater success.
It's publicity, but also to mess with his brother. He said, "Let's make a bet, bro."
"Let's bet on the final box office." He said, "Random number sisters, do you want to play?"
The barrage responds naturally.
As the leading actor, Xie Xichao certainly cannot overestimate such things, as it would be very immodest. He said two hundred thousand. But he didn't expect that Ji Yan would ask for such a huge amount of money.
"35," he said, "make it an even number. I was going to say 40, but I'll deduct 500 million from you based on the score of your subject matter. How do you think?"
Xie Xichao: “…”
"What's the bet?"
Ji Yan spoke for the comments: "If you win, I'll work for you for free and make a movie. If I win, you... wear cat ears and cover a full girl group dance? It has to be sexy."
Xie Xichao's eyelids twitched slightly.
After he got a cat, cat sculptures rose like crazy, but it's a pity that TP hasn't returned for a long time. It seems like he was wearing cat ears from the last century, not to mention girl group dances. In his early youth, he could still fool his fans, but now his fans can only be teased by him.
Xie Xichao said, "Okay."
After all, it's not a matter of bottom line.
What's more, at that time, he didn't think that "Player" could really reach that level.
But sometimes, God rewards hard work so generously.
