Lin Xuan'er immediately ran over these numbers in her head. "That only leaves 14% of the screenings? Aren't there at least six more movies?"
"This is the Spring Festival period," Zhou Yiyang shrugged. "Except for the two films currently ranked fifth and sixth in the schedule, which still have a chance to rebound in terms of reputation, the remaining four films each have a screening percentage of around 1%, and have already withdrawn from the Spring Festival competition."
"That's too much," Su Yin, the lead actress in "The Godfather of Shanghai," said nervously. If her own film flopped, she'd at most feel sorry for Zhou Yiyang and the investors. But there were so many talented actors in the film, many of them unknown, hoping to gain fame through this film. She hoped she could bring them good luck: "So unless you're absolutely confident in the quality, any other timeframe is much better than the Spring Festival."
"Indeed," Wang Xingrui nodded heavily. "But Xuan'er, you've also made a killing this time. Did you know that your song 'Light' has reached number one on Moonlight's Hottest Today?"
This time Zhou Yiyang used this song as the theme song of "The Godfather of Magic City". As for the theme song, he used a piece of instrumental music.
As expected, compared to the melodious and pleasant pure music, the audience still prefers vocal singing.
Lin Xuan'er hugged Su Yin directly: "You are worthy of being called Little Su. I have to thank you very much! I just read a lot of reviews, and they all praised your acting!"
"Well," Su Yin said a little embarrassedly, "it's actually all thanks to Brother Yang as the director. If it weren't for him, there wouldn't be such a good story."
“Um…” Lin Xuan’er blushed, “Thank you, Brother Yang. I won’t hug you anymore.”
"Of course, of course." Zhou Yiyang nodded immediately.
Tang Yue immediately changed the subject: "Sister Fei, please tell us about the ratings of our movies on Miaoyan, Yunpiaopiao, and Douban! Are we leading in terms of reputation?"
"That's right," Guan Fei was also very proud. Yi Yang Entertainment's films have never had a bad reputation so far! "The Godfather of Shanghai has a score of 9.5 on Miaoyan and Yunpiaopiao, and 8.6 on Douban. These scores are really high!"
"Oh right, pfft," Guan Fei couldn't help laughing. "Do you know how many points the popular Douyin movie 'It Started With a Kiss' scored? Yunpiaopiao scored 8.3. I suspect it's locked in because of Yunbao's investment. Miaoyan only scored 7.9. As for Douban, it started with a score of 5."
Zhou Yiyang glanced at the ratings of several movies, and he didn't expect that the second-highest-rated movie was the one where the director and staff knelt down. Both Yunpiaopiao and Miaoyan had a score of 9.2.
He thinks that this movie is likely to rise from sixth place in the schedule to third place in the Spring Festival period.
The star-studded comedy "War of the Nian Beast" should still be second.
Yes, Zhou Yiyang is now confident that "The Godfather of Shanghai" will be the winner of this year's Spring Festival.
After lunch, each of them was still paying attention to the real-time box office, afraid of missing anything.
18:00.
The movie box office forum is extremely lively. Before the Spring Festival every year, people in this forum will predict the champion of the Spring Festival.
However, "The Godfather", which no one was optimistic about this year, is now becoming more and more like a dark horse.
The post with the most replies so far is:
Real-time box office report: "The Godfather" has grossed 150 million yuan, surpassing "It Started With a Kiss"! The attendance rate is three times that of "It Started With a Kiss"! I no longer dare to predict its final box office!
Zhou Yiyang looked at the title, which was as long as a light novel, and clicked on the post while trying not to laugh.
The reply was quite sincere, and I believe many people have watched several popular movies during the Spring Festival.
[Seriously, why bother with marketing for films like "It Started With a Kiss"? Isn't it a blatant money-grab? Why in the 21st century are there still movies where the heroine has an abortion, loses her memory, and develops leukemia?]
"The Legend of the Silver-Haired Temptress" is truly terrible. The special effects aren't even as good as "Charlotte's Troubles"! Honestly, I left halfway through watching it. This was the last time I was gentle with my body!
What's wrong with Jiang Biyun? She actually accepted the role in "Nian Beast Wars." This is a disgrace to her reputation! On the other hand, Helian Bei's stock of films is full of famous directors!
[However, even without the contrast of its peers, the quality of "The Godfather" is unmatched by ordinary films. I would even dare to say that this is the most touching Spring Festival film I have seen in recent years.]
[Really? You have to watch "The Godfather" with your parents. My mom and I both cried after watching it. I really regret arguing with my mom yesterday and even wanting to run away from home!]
"Yes, word of mouth is starting to spread." Zhou Yiyang curled his lips and became more confident.
A second-generation person who did not want to reveal his name walked into the reserved cinema.
"Young Master Long, what kind of movie are we watching? You've actually booked the entire theater. Could it be that the heroine in this movie is your new love?"
"Get away from me," Shen Long said coldly, "It would be so embarrassing if someone caught me watching a movie like this."
The younger brother muttered to himself, "If you don't want to see it, why bother paying for the ticket? Isn't that just giving away the box office? I think Young Master Long just doesn't want to admit that he wants to see this movie."
The four big words "The Godfather of Magic City" have appeared on the screen.
