But "Shendu Youth" is being compared with "The Devil Transformed". The box office at the premiere was so far behind its competitor, how could it catch up in the later stage?
Miss Ran was naturally very proud, and Wen Ying was not discouraged.
"A box office of over 4 million yuan at the premiere is already very good. The screening schedule of "Shendu Youth" is not as good as "The Devil Transformed"."
Wen Ying was actually quite satisfied with this result.
The audiences who went to see the movie "The Devil Transforms" were all fans of big-name stars. The big-name stars have been famous for many years, and their fans are generally of an age where they are financially independent.
Since they don’t get pocket money from their parents to watch movies, these movie fans can of course decide which movie to watch and which showtime to go to.
On the other hand, the readers of "Shendu: Youth Journey" and the fans of Yunchen and his companions are generally younger. If students want to go out to see a movie in the early hours of New Year's Eve, I guess few parents would agree, right?
Wen Ying believes that the box office of "Shendu Youth" will only explode on the first day of the Lunar New Year.
Mr. Zhang himself did not contribute to the box office of "The Devil Transformation", but he sent people to watch "The Devil Transformation". The people sent by Mr. Zhang came back and said that it was "very ugly". Mr. Zhang felt relieved:
"While both films have good reputations, ours is based on genuine audience feedback, while the positive reviews for 'The Devil Transformed' were bought. These positive reviews may temporarily trick some uninformed viewers into watching the film, but once more viewers have seen 'The Devil Transformed', its genuine reputation will no longer be suppressed by online scams."
As for the water army, they get paid to post and do as much work as they are paid. After making money from posting, they will not become real fans of "The Devil Changes".
Only true movie fans will recommend a movie to people around them after watching it. Word of mouth will spread, and when everyone says it’s good, that’s the real word-of-mouth reputation!
Although Mr. Zhang is stingy, he has worked in the industry for many years and has a good understanding of the market.
During the day on the first day of the Lunar New Year, all the comments online about "The Devil Transformed" were positive, but by the afternoon, many negative reviews had appeared.
One audience member said frankly that the "Demon Transformation" he watched in the cinema and the "Demon Transformation" that received rave reviews online seemed to be two different movies.
Of course, there is no problem for big stars. For these big names, acting is as easy as eating and drinking.
But the performance of newcomer Luo Hao, who was highly praised by film critics, was not as amazing as described in the press release!
Of course, the failure of a movie cannot be blamed solely on a certain actor. The failure of "The Devil Changes" is all-round.
Ordinary audiences don’t understand what good editing means, they just have one feeling: this movie is really ugly.
The story rhythm is so messed up that I can't even understand it!
The character's motivations don't make any sense at all.
"The most amazing thing is that after watching 'The Devil Transformed,' I bought a ticket for 'The Young Man's Journey to the Capital of Gods' out of curiosity. Over an hour later, my heart, which had been severely wounded by 'The Devil Transformed,' was healed. 'The Young Man's Journey to the Capital of Gods' is truly great. I don't understand why their box office figures are so different!"
Once this kind of real viewing experience comes to light, Ran Keqing’s internet trolls will label you a “black fan.”
Several cinema chains actually agreed that the premiere of "Shendu: Youth" performed well. The New Year's Eve premiere didn't reflect much, as cinemas across the country received complaints during the day on New Year's Day that the film had too few screenings and was inconvenient to buy tickets.
Several mainstream cinema chains are already considering increasing the screening schedule of "Shendu Youth Journey".
If the box office of "Shendu Youth" is good on the first day of the Lunar New Year, why can't its screening frequency be increased?
Cinemas can never have too many profitable films.
The greater the competition between the two films in terms of promotion, the better it is for the cinemas; they are the ultimate winners! "...
The poor author has become a fool.
The symptoms this time are not as severe as the first time, so please take extra precautions o(╥﹏╥)o"
