Chapter 465: Witnessing a Miracle and Changing Concepts
This year's Double 11 is relatively cold. I don't know if it's because people are a little disgusted with Double 11 nowadays, or because they don't have much money.
In short, many people have gradually calmed down on Double 11. No matter how powerful the merchants say or how much you brag, it is basically useless. On the one hand, people have no money, and on the other hand, consumption has gradually returned to calm.
In this case, what competitiveness do you think your movie "Love Is Not Blind", which has a low budget and was shot so quickly, can have?
This is exactly the case. In fact, many people did not believe in "Love Is Not Blind" at the beginning. After all, no matter how you look at it, the time, place and people are basically not right.
Everyone felt that if Yu Xiaoshu could still explode after this, it would be too abnormal.
No, not perverted, it's quite perverted.
But today, after the release of "Love Is Not Blind", many people feel that this movie may really be different.
The difference here refers to the fact that the direction of the entire movie is a bit different now.
Normally, a movie that was shot so shortly before it was released probably wouldn't even have enough time to promote itself. After all, the release date is so damn close, how could it possibly be a hit?
That's what they say, and many rational people feel the same way, because no matter from which aspect, it seems that "Love Is Not Blind" should not be successful.
But it succeeded.
Double 11 is not a normal day for movie releases, and as we have said, the whole month of November is basically a deadly period.
A combination of reasons.
Even if God comes, he has to kneel.
As a result, all major cinemas were surprised to find one thing today, that is, the attendance rate of "Love Is Not Blind" was not just high, but extremely high.
Many times, the industry’s analysis cannot be said to be completely wrong in the face of reality, but it can only be said to be going in the opposite direction.
This is just like some film and television dramas. Before filming began, the industry commented that the drama would be a big hit, but it flopped after it was aired. Some reviews said it was terrible, but it became a hit after it was aired.
In the entertainment industry, sometimes being popular is also a kind of metaphysics, whether it is an artist or a work.
In short, the principle is similar.
On the evening of November 11, "Love Is Not Blind" directly became a hot search, and it dominated the hot searches.
Anyway, it looks like everyone is flooding the screen with messages.
In short, those who like this movie are recommending it, those who hate it are cursing it, some people are giving neutral reviews, and some are just making random comments.
But did you find out?
That is, no matter whether it is scolding, praising, flattering, or criticizing, you have to watch "Love Is Not Blind" before you can talk about it.
By this evening, most of the film reviews had come out.
Not only on social platforms, but even on Douhu, there are quite a lot of discussions about "Love Is Not Blind".
"I think the first-day box office of this movie might shock everyone."
"That's right, my market is almost full. Damn, is everyone not working on Double 11?"
"I was a little surprised too. I had to go to the cinema because of a blind date, and it just so happened that there was only this couple movie in the cinema at that time, but when I entered the cinema, I found that there were so many people."
…
Good job.
No one expected that a bunch of people would come out to write movie reviews on Douhu, and each of them said, "Love Is Not Blind, I like it."
Whether it is a success or not depends on the box office.
Again, if Love Is Not Blind does really well on the first day, then it won’t just be a critical and commercial success, but will truly sweep the entire November.
Because there are no blockbusters this month, not even new movies.
Next, it’s time for everyone to witness the miracle.
“It’s out, it’s out. What do you think the first-day box office of Love Is Not Blind will be on Double 11?”
"It's a weekday, and overall the cinema doesn't seem to have scheduled too many screenings. I don't think the first-day box office will exceed 30 million."
"Good fellow, you are so bold to say that. If the box office really reaches 30 million on the first day, then Love Is Not Blind will definitely be another hit."
"There will be no problem for this movie to gross over 100 million yuan. The question now is how many hundreds of millions it can reach."
"How many hundreds of millions? Are you guys above all wrong? I think it would be great if the first-day box office for Double 11 is 10 million."
"Fuck, upstairs, are we crazy or are you crazy? Or are you crazy? With such popularity, you said there are only 10 million? "
…
Just like that, a miracle really happened while everyone was discussing it.
"Love Is Not Blind" grossed 52 million on its first day.
Such a result once again caused an uproar in the industry.
"Wait, how much? How much? 52 million on the first day???"
"Oh my god, such a quickly made movie has such a huge box office explosion???"
"I can't believe it. I just need to take a break now."
…
No one expected that the box office of "Love Is Not Blind" would be so explosive.
This is already an explosion to an extreme.
You should know that people were not very optimistic about "Love Is Not Blind" before, and precisely because people were not optimistic about this movie, they did not give it too much screening time.
Here we need to talk about the issue of schedule selection.
If "Love Is Not Blind" was released during a major or even busy period, the screening schedule would definitely be greatly affected, and the box office would probably not be as it is now.
After all, there are no movies released right now, which means that "Love Is Not Blind" has no competitors. Cinemas must make money. After they discovered the attendance rate of "Love Is Not Blind", they will definitely increase the attendance rate of this movie.
In this way, everything goes smoothly.
But the same thing.
Even if everything went smoothly, the movie's first-day box office still exceeded many people's expectations.
Next, everyone was confused.
It's really numb.
On the first day, "Love Is Not Blind" grossed 52 million.
In just two days over the weekend, "Love Is Not Blind" grossed 300 million yuan at the box office.
After three days of release, "Love Is Not Blind" grossed 352 million yuan.
What a miracle this is???
On the Internet, when analyzing the reasons for the success of "Love Is Not Blind", the film was described as "the right time, the right place, and the right people".
First of all, there are no new movies in the cinemas. Because there have been no new movies for a long time, this is a cold period for the cinemas. In such a situation, the release of "Love Is Not Blind" is too timely.
Secondly, on a holiday like Double 11, couples’ favorite thing to watch is romance movies, and "Love Is Not Blind" is both a romance and a comedy, so it is naturally liked by the audience.
Again, "Love Is Not Blind" can be said to have been promoted quite properly before. The promotion of this movie was timely, and the first wave of audiences had a better reputation, so of course it would have a good box office.
Think about it.
This is often the case with many people.
Basically, the reason is judged by success or failure. Because no one was optimistic about "Love Is Not Blind" before, everyone thought that "Love Is Not Blind" was bound to fail because it had none of the right time, place, and people.
But now, for three consecutive days, "Love Is Not Blind" has earned more than 300 million yuan at the box office, so the discussion has changed again, and it has become an inevitable result.
This is normal operation.
There is no need to discuss too much.
In the following week, "Love Is Not Blind" took in nearly 400 million yuan at the box office.
That is to say, within 10 days of its release, "Love Is Not Blind" has already grossed over 700 million yuan.
At this time, no one knows what kind of mood to talk about "Love is Not Blind" with.
Because in these 10 days, the Internet has been completely in an uproar.
Huang Xiaoxian and Wang Xiaojian are a good pair.
As for Miao Chun, who was currently filming, his mood could not be said to be simple.
She didn't expect that "Love Is Not Blind" would become such a hit.
Yes.
According to Miao Chun's idea, "Love Is Not Blind" might perform well, but at most, it would probably only make 100 million yuan.
How can a movie like this be compared with the blockbuster he is currently shooting?
But, I really didn’t expect that "Love Is Not Blind" would actually reach a box office of over 700 million yuan.
You know, this is because it has only been released for 10 days.
Although other movies will be released soon, it should not be a problem for "Love Is Not Blind" to break 1 billion at the box office.
After all, "Love Is Not Blind" can be regarded as the absolute king in all aspects.
There is a good reputation, and there is also a gap of about 8 days.
In just one week, no one can predict how far "Love Is Not Blind" can fly.
Because of the popularity brought by the movie "Love Is Not Blind", Liu Hao, the male lead, became extremely famous.
Currently, Liu Hao is directly referred to as Wang Xiaojian on the Internet.
Obviously, Liu Hao finally experienced the feeling of being in the spotlight with "Love Is Not Blind".
Before him, Miao Chun became famous with "I Really Came from Another World". At that time, Miao Chun thought that she was finally going to make a comeback and become famous. She really looked down on Liu Hao.
Human emotions cannot withstand the test.
Miao Chun knows how difficult it is to get an opportunity in the entertainment industry, and sometimes it is quite difficult for you to seize an opportunity.
In such a situation, Miao Chun really doesn't want to go back to the past.
She thought that since she was already famous, she must take advantage of this opportunity to go further, and she absolutely could not go back to the days when she was a small artist.
In this case, breaking up is a natural thing.
Miao Chun didn't think she had done anything wrong. She had done her best by dating Liu Hao for the past few years. Now that she was famous, of course she had to pursue her career.
result.
Who would have thought that Liu Hao would become so popular with "Love Is Not Blind".
“Miao Miao, we did make a small mistake in this matter, but there is nothing we can do about it. Even though we knew that Love Is Not Blind would be a hit, we had no choice but to give up. After all, it would never be more popular than this one.”
It would be a lie if Xue Ying said she didn't feel any regret, but as an agent, she should always think about the bright side.
What's more, it's just a missed movie, there are many more movies waiting for them.
Why the rush???
"Don't worry, Miaomiao, I'll take care of everything."
Xue Mei waved her hand slightly and said.
"Yeah, I know, I believe you."
Miao Chun said hurriedly.
…
On the other hand, Yu Xiaoshu was at the filming site of "Drawing Sword".
Today is the last scene of "Drawing Sword".
"Okay, now I declare that the filming of "Drawing Sword" has officially finished."
When the last scene ended, director Wang Yang shouted loudly.
Obviously, Wang Yang was excited and excited while filming "Drawing Sword". At the same time, the filming of this TV series can be said to be quite hard.
Some of the winter scenes were shot on location.
After all, it is November now and it is snowing, so it can be said that it is quite hard to catch up with the schedule for filming these scenes.
Fortunately.
It's all worth it.
Wang Yang believes that the TV series "Drawing Sword" will definitely bring everyone some different feelings.
There were some reporters at the scene.
These reporters took the opportunity to ask Yu Xiaoshu during the interview.
"Teacher Yu, are you satisfied with the current achievements of Love Is Not Blind???"
A reporter asked about "Love Is Not Blind".
Yu Xiaoshu smiled and said, "Of course I am satisfied. I personally think that the performance of Love Is Not Blind has already met my expectations. At the same time, I also want to tell you one thing once again through Love Is Not Blind, that is, the script is king."
The next few interview questions are about "Drawing Sword".
In this regard, Yu Xiaoshu expressed confidence: "Everyone can watch it when the time comes. "Drawing Sword" will not disappoint everyone."
…
Half an hour later, Yu Xiaoshu’s comments on “Love Is Not Blind” were also reported.
"Yes, the script is indeed king. Even Love Is Not Blind can achieve such a good result, so shouldn't we continue to increase our efforts in the script?"
"That's true. The script is king. We must write a good script."
"In my opinion, we still need to learn from Yu Xiaoshu."
…
For a while, many screenwriters agreed with Yu Xiaoshu's statement.
Not only screenwriters, but also some film and television companies began to come to their senses at this time.
What an era of blockbusters, what an era where blockbusters are king.
If you can make a lot of money with a small budget, then why bother making a big movie?
Script, script, you must have a good script no matter what.
Obviously, with these movies, Yu Xiaoshu has truly made the people of China focus on the script instead of blindly pursuing the blockbuster effect.
