Chapter 581: That crappy movie, 30 million at midnight?
At 2 a.m., because Blue Star Fleet was longer than A Chinese Ghost Story, its early morning box office was a step slower and had just been counted.
The director received the box office and smiled: "70 million!"
"Wow!" The creative team was immediately excited. "This is going to be great! Judging from this data, the first-day box office will definitely exceed 300 million!"
You have to know that this is only the box office at midnight. After all, only a few people stay up late at night to watch movies. Generally speaking, the afternoon, especially at night, is the best time to watch a movie. However, judging by the box office trend of this movie, it is inevitable that it will break 300 million today.
The lead actor Xu Tian is a first-tier movie star after all, and he is very stable. He said gently: "The next step is the tough battle. Although our movie has a high box office at midnight, the investment is also high. If we want to make a real profit, there is still a tough battle to fight."
The director nodded in agreement: "That's right, everyone will work hard for the next promotional activities for a while, and when the final box office results are released, I will hold a celebration party for everyone!"
"No problem! We will definitely go all out for the next promotion!"
"Don't worry! If our movie lives up to expectations, it will definitely be the biggest winner of the summer season!"
"I think so too! I looked at the midnight box office of the summer movies online, and none of them can compare to ours."
Ai Ling suddenly asked, "What about 'A Chinese Ghost Story'? How much was its midnight box office?"
The scene suddenly became quiet.
Everyone in the "Blue Star Fleet" crew knows that Ai Ling suffered a loss at the hands of Lin Fan's fans, so they will inevitably pay more attention to it. But now is a celebration moment for "Blue Star Fleet". Isn't it inappropriate to say that other people's box office is not good?
Moreover, although Ai Ling took the initiative to do this shameful thing, the crew did not explicitly stop it, nor did they even express their views on the matter. In the circle, not expressing one's views means tacit consent.
Other crews, and even some people in the Blue Star Fleet crew, all believed that Ai Ling's actions were instructed by the crew. Ai Ling was slapped in the face by Lin Fan's fans, which was actually no different from the Blue Star Fleet crew being slapped in the face.
As a result, some people in the crew were quite resentful of Ai Ling in their hearts: If you can't handle it, don't mess around! And everyone else will be ridiculed with you! However, Ai Ling's status is there, and no one dared to say anything unless the director said anything.
The director glanced at it casually and said calmly, "The midnight box office of A Chinese Ghost Story is 30 million."
After these words came out, not to mention Ai Ling, Xu Tian couldn't believe it: "How much? Thirty million?!"
"Did I hear you right? That crappy movie? How could it have a box office of 30 million at midnight?"
And the midnight box office was 30 million, so wouldn't the first day box office be over 100 million? Is the movie that good? Or are Lin Fan's fans particularly good? Ai Ling calmed down and said, "Impossible! How much water must be added to this!"
Thirty million? Are you kidding!
How could a movie like "A Chinese Ghost Story" that has nothing and nothing at all, have a box office of 30 million at midnight?
Speaking of the word "water injection", others also reacted: water injection! It's an old rule in the circle! It's a normal thing. I was just shocked by the box office data just now, so I didn't think about it.
The director also agreed with Ai Ling's opinion: "It should be inflated. The actual box office is estimated to be more than 10 million, or barely 20 million. They announced 30 million to make it look good."
Ai Ling curled her lips and said, "I didn't learn much real stuff, but I learned all these fancy tricks very well."
Everyone else pretended not to hear.
The director clapped his hands, indicating that the topic was over: "Okay, everyone is tired today, go back and have a good rest. The upcoming promotion will not be easy, you must stay in the best condition!"
"Okay, Director!"
After the crew had dispersed, the director took out his cell phone again and looked at the data displayed on it: Thirty million?
The director could follow Ai Ling's words in front of everyone and make others misunderstand that the box office was inflated. But the director himself knew that this was data directly counted by the theater chain and was first-hand information he got from his acquaintances, and this box office was real.
The director felt a little bit of a toothache for no apparent reason: Could he be so unlucky? I thought he was just a weakling who could be stepped on at random, but he didn’t want him to be a ferocious beast in the end! …
Late at night, those netizens who stayed up late to cultivate their talents were active, especially on movie websites. Many viewers who had just finished watching the midnight show brought the first-hand news to the majority of netizens.
[It’s You Everyday: Ding Ding Ding Ding! Taking a photo with my idol Xu Tian at the premiere! Are you sisters envious? Are you jealous? Hahaha, I even got Tian’s autograph! ]
[I’m so poor that I only have my panties left: Sister, did you attend the premiere of “Blue Star Fleet”?! I’m really jealous! Is Brother Tian’s autograph available? I’ll buy it for a high price!]
[Fat ones are exquisite, thin ones are the same: How is the movie? Is it good? ]
[Tian Tian Shi Shi Ni: Of course it’s good! What’s not good about my Tian Ge’s performance? Besides, it’s a sci-fi blockbuster with a 1.5 billion investment, and the scenes and special effects are simply amazing! Go watch it, and if it’s not good, ask me to refund the ticket! ]
Such a confident tone is quite attractive.
There is no mistake in the poem, post, content, and read the book on 6, 9, and bar!
Of course, some people just don’t believe it: [Women can’t lose on curves: Is this true? I seriously suspect you are a water army. Where did you get the order? Let’s make money together! ]
In short, there are all kinds of sounds.
However, amidst this chaos, there was a completely different voice:
[When three people are together, there must be a light bulb: I strongly recommend a new movie to you! ! "A Chinese Ghost Story"! This movie is super good! You definitely can't miss it! Especially the role played by my goddess in it, it's simply amazing! As a woman, I want to bleed from the nose after watching it! ]
[Homework forced me to do it: Ahhh! Finally found someone who likes this movie as much as I do! Sister! As long as you like "A Chinese Ghost Story", we are good sisters! ]
[How are you? You are still like this: "A Chinese Ghost Story" is definitely the most unmissable movie in this summer! Goddess Xia Yan is absolutely amazing! I won't say anything else, I'm going to grab the tickets and watch it again! ]
Of course, some people think that the promotion of "Blue Star Fleet" is a scam, and the promotion of "A Chinese Ghost Story" is no exception:
[Running Pork Belly: Wow! Are all the water army in this movie so dedicated? They seem to be more sincere than others, do they also earn more than others? Bring one of my brothers! ]
…
In the tide of "Blue Star Fleet", there are indeed not many people who are interested in "A Chinese Ghost Story". It seems that they are powerless to resist and can only occasionally create one or two waves.
But such waves were not swallowed by the tide, but stood there firmly and persistently. They also spread across the Internet like a silent moistening of the earth.
