Chapter 632 Movie Release 10
The movie "Red Sun" immediately went viral on many netizens' WeChat Moments after the first screening in the morning.
The box office revenue increased from nearly 200 million yuan to 240 million yuan.
Because the publicity in the past period of time has already given this movie enough popularity, when the good reviews on the Internet came, it easily attracted other passers-by to buy tickets.
It was at this time that Fu Zhi logged into Bai Yu's Weibo and posted a promotion:
Watch "Red Sun" and you will win the world.
As soon as this Weibo post was released, it became popular immediately thanks to the comments of netizens. There was no need for the crew to pay for it to become a hot topic.
Netizens have said that Fu Zhi’s recent writing style reminds them of the non-mainstream sentimental posts on QQ Space in previous years.
The stupid netizens who had all kinds of ridiculous pictures interacted with Fu Zhi while clicking on a certain platform to check the ratings and data.
I even went to the Super Talk Square to ask:
——[How is the box office now? Can any sisters tell me which movie has the best data? 】
——【They are all rising, Nianbai has exceeded 300 million, and Hongri is around 280 million. 】
——[Director Zhang has been doing this for so many years and has such a good reputation, but the one that only broke three Fuzhi can break 2.8? That red sun is not bad either! 】
Many netizens who have been following the movie Red Sun have discovered that the box office of Red Sun is surprisingly high, and some of them are eager to watch Red Sun when they have time after watching the recitation.
Netizens continued to pay attention to Hong Ri until the evening, when the movie's price stopped rising.
Just as twelve o'clock arrived, the premiere of the New Year's film ended.
From the box office statistics on a certain platform, it is clearly visible that Red Sun had a box office of 300 million, Wings of Heaven had a box office of 250 million, and The Voice had a box office of 380 million.
Each crew bought hot search promotion for the movie.
Right below the box office of Nianbai are Red Sun and Heaven.
It was probably because the matter between Fu Zhi and Mu's family had been making a lot of noise these days, and Mu's family had hired a lot of Internet trolls when they saw that they could make money. Many netizens were influenced by this and liked to compare the two movies Red Sun and The Story of Yanxi Palace:
——【Fu Zhi’s publicity is awesome, but what’s the use of being awesome? If the quality is not up to standard, it will still not be as good as the lines. 】
——[It’s only the first day, the first day of the new year, and the box office is in a low period. After Everyone Goes To Relatives, the box office will have another boom. Whether it can beat that will depend on the subsequent word of mouth and publicity! But Nianbai's performance is indeed a new high! 】
——[It’s more than just a new record! Holy shit, it's getting so many good reviews online, will it make it into the top three domestic box office this year? 】
——【Maybe! At this rate, it is very likely to be a dark horse in China's film and television industry! It is worthy of being a big IP drama adapted from a novel! Love it! I will take my sisters and I to the cinema to watch Nian Bai tomorrow! 】
——[Hong Ri has won so many awards, but its box office is still not as good as Nian Bai. I wonder if Fu Zhi, who knows so many big guys, bought the trophies and honors through connections. 】
…
A group of people in the Hongri WeChat group stayed up all night on New Year’s Eve, bought tickets early in the morning and went to the cinema with their families to watch the movie and read netizens’ reactions.
As a result, before they even finished watching the movie, the rising price curve of the movie in the evening and the attitude of netizens alone made these people confused.
The reason is simple: the screening schedules of some cinemas were simply beyond their expectations!
If Evergrande Cinema and several small cinemas could choose a good time slot for Red Sun to schedule its film.
Apart from these, some other cinemas have scheduled all the movies for Red Sun at one or two in the morning, a hellish schedule with tickets costing eighty or ninety yuan each!
"Nearly half of the theaters in China are showing The Voice and Heaven all day long. Our Red Sun has been squeezed out by them!"
The crew members were indignant.
Anyone who works so hard for so long would be angry if the cinema schedules such shady films.
Feng Bo couldn't sit still after seeing this news. He was very nervous. He sent a screenshot of the group to Fu Zhi in a private chat and said, "Miss Fu, do you know anyone here who can help with the scheduling of other theaters?"
On the first day of a movie's premiere, each theater scheduled the film in order to make a living. Of course, they had to schedule the film according to the director's fame and the star lineup. They couldn't just give Fu Zhi a lot of screenings because he had a large lineup.
Although Fu Zhi didn't understand filming, he used this period of time to catch up on some of the rules of the film and television industry.
This arrangement was within her expectations.
Considering the identity of a director who has failed for many years and an investor who knows nothing, the box office of 300 million in the premiere is not a small amount, it is just 80 million less than Director Zhang's.
But Feng Bo didn't think so. "Nian Bai's box office at the premiere was higher than ours. Some netizens don't understand the scheduling of films and are boasting that Nian Bai suppressed Hong Ri... In addition, Mu's group hired Internet trolls, and the theaters are also very good at choosing the right movie for the right audience. I'm afraid our subsequent box office will be affected by this incident."
"Have you read the novel Nianbai?" Fu Zhi changed Feng Bo's topic and asked him.
“…Ah? I’ve seen it.”
"What do you think of the plot?"
"...Not really. At that time, this type of semi-realistic, semi-romantic novel had just become popular, and readers did not have high requirements for worldviews and the like."
"So," Fu Zhi said, "the current environment is different. Netizens have the right to choose their own consumption. It is better to have nothing than to have something inferior. No matter how much the Internet trolls praise the dialogue, consumers go to watch it with high expectations and end up being fed a mouthful of shit. Do you think this kind of deceptive consumption will not provoke consumers to retaliate?"
Feng Bo seemed to understand what Fu Zhi meant, "So what should we do?"
"Wait two more days and trust the netizens' choice."
——
The Red Sun crew did not make a direct response to the scheduling and suppression by netizens.
The next two days.
The box office of Nianbai continues to rise.
On the third day of the Lunar New Year, it rose to 700 million.
On the other hand, Hongri was stuck at 500 million.
When Zhang Yuanhui saw this data on the data network, he breathed a sigh of relief.
He didn't have the courage to watch Red Sun directed by Feng Bo, but judging from the recent box office growth, there is a big difference between Red Sun and Nianbai.
In the history of film, there are very few times when two films shine at the same time. As long as the monologue can cover the brilliance of the red sun, Zhang Yuanhui firmly believes that Feng Bo, as a small film director, would not dare to talk about those trivial things from the past.
Besides, even if he said it, who would believe it? Who doesn't think he's just trying to get attention?
"It's time to close the net." Zhang Yuanhui called the publicity department of the Nianbai crew.
On the same day, the crew of Nianbai posted a screenshot of Fu Zhi's previous blog post insulting Zhang Yuanhui as a villain and Nianbai's 700 million box office, and posted the picture on Weibo with lightning speed.
Nianbai Official Crew V: [We hope Ms. Fu can focus more on the development of the film and television industry instead of engaging in unkind and impolite bickering. @Fuzhi V. 】
As soon as the Weibo news came out, the first few comments were from internet trolls hired by the crew, and all of them said: Well said.
With a box office of 700 million yuan, Zhang Yuanhui is content to stay at home, drinking tea, playing with birds and relaxing.
But Zhang Yuanhui didn't feel at ease for long.
Because within half an hour, Mu Changqing called and said angrily, "Who told you to command the official account to say that? All the good reviews for Nianbai have been ruined by your words. Check Weibo and see clearly. Apologize immediately!"
Zhang Yuanhui's heart skipped a beat and he couldn't drink the tea in the cup anymore.
I had a bad feeling and hurriedly took out my phone to check Weibo.
The official Weibo account has long been deleted by the troll army, and all the comments are from netizens:
——【When the official blog says something like this, please first consider who you are. I went to watch the 10 a.m. show on the third day of the Chinese New Year. I originally went there to support Director Zhang, but the content... haha, it's hard to describe. Love triangle, abortion, the heroine is a bitch and the hero is a cheapskate, they regard cheating as noble, there is no funny point in the whole play, I don't know what kind of values are being promoted, it's really confusing! 】
——[Is this true or false? I think the box office of Nianbai is increasing faster than Hongri, isn’t that right? 】
——[The rapid increase is not due to good film scheduling! u1s1 I have followed both of these movies, and I can only say that Red Sun and The Voice are simply not at the same level! "Red Sun" revolves around family and country throughout, and the dialogue is just whining. All the special effects and costumes of "Red Sun" are carefully put into it, and it is easy for the audience to empathize with the film. Fu Zhi himself also participated in the performance, and his acting skills in military uniform cannot be described as beautiful and cool. In short, Red Sun movies have a strong sense of the overall situation, and it’s not their turn to criticize them with trashy movie lines! 】
——[I agree with what was said above. When you watch Red Sun, your eyes will be filled with tears. The aftertaste is also very strong. The original eight-point movie can be pushed to ninety points by that aftertaste. 】
——【Fuck? It seems that the acting skills of the two leading actors, Zhu Guangyuan and Ye San, are amazing? 】
How is that possible!
What amazing acting skills? Zhang Yuanhui doesn’t believe it at all!
But he couldn't help but believe it or not, the box office would tell the whole story.
The more badly Red Sun was suppressed by Nianbai's box office in these three days, the more fiercely the deceived consumers will retaliate against Nianbai.
With the support of countless netizens, passers-by and Ye San’s fans who came to their senses, the box office of Red Sun began to rise.
On the fourth day, the box office reached 1.1 billion.
On the fifth day, the box office reached 2.2 billion.
The recitation was boycotted by netizens, and the box office began to suffer.
Day 4, 710 million.
Day 5, 715 million.
Even many cinemas respect Nianbai and have scheduled screenings for it throughout the day.
But now that the Internet is so developed, who doesn't check out Weibo and Douban before watching a movie? Even among friends and relatives, they have to ask each other which movies can be watched and which cannot be watched.
Red Sun has become the best choice for the New Year period.
So, on the sixth day, some netizens who lived in bad areas directly reported and boycotted the small cinema near their home for scheduling the film "Red Sun in the Underworld".
Netizens online also called for the removal of films that destroy people's worldviews and for giving truly excellent films like Red Sun and Wild Thoughts a chance.
The pressure from the Internet was particularly great. In addition, seeing that Evergrande Cinema, which had scheduled screenings of Hong Ri almost all day, made so much money, many cinemas also reacted and immediately arranged a film set for Hong Ri.
The box office of Red Sun broke 3 billion on the sixth day.
Many big Vs once thought that Red Sun was not good, and going to see Red Sun was equivalent to lowering their own taste.
But now, seeing netizens’ attitude towards Hongri, they kept praising Hongri’s simplicity and true feelings.
By the seventh day, the Internet was flooded with praises for Hongri.
The box office began to climb towards 4 billion.
Ye San’s fans were so excited that they cried.
After all, my brother was able to achieve such results in his first movie, which is unique in the entertainment industry.
After this year, Ye San will be the actor who carries the box office of 4 billion yuan!
The actors in the Red Sun crew were celebrating.
Open Weibo, Douban, forums, etc., and you will basically see netizens mocking Zhang Yuanhui.
——【The bastard Zhang Yuanhui belittled the value of women throughout the whole process. After being fed a mouthful of shit, I decided to go see Hong Ri to wash my stomach. 】
——[I didn’t think Hong Ri was particularly strong at first, but with the contrast of his lines... I fell in love with Yan Shaokai, played by Ye San! 】
——[I really don’t understand why Zhang Yuanhui’s scriptwriting ability has declined to this extent! It’s almost as if it was shot by two different people compared to the previous hit movies, So Bewildering! 】
——[This movie is labeled as a comedy but it is actually selling dog meat under the guise of mutton, deceiving consumers. I am so angry that I have no place to vent! 】
****
Anyway, netizens on the Internet have a particularly bad impression of Zhang Yuanhang.
If it weren't for the fact that Mu had some connections and was afraid of losing money and kept trying, this movie would basically have to bid farewell to the theater's screening schedule and completely disappear from the audience's sight.
In contrast to this.
The atmosphere on Hongri's side is quite good.
Although it is not easy to continue climbing after the box office reached 4 billion, it can still increase by 500 to 600 million every day.
In addition, the movie Red Sun has a strong staying power, and without the competition of recitation, it will attract some netizens to watch it a second time.
After all, if you have nothing to do, you might as well go to the cinema with your friends to watch a movie.
Guangyuan and Ye San’s Weibo followers increased significantly because of this movie.
The characters played by both people were sad at the end, and the audience had no way to place their emotions.
Such a setting can easily make the audience immersed in the play give overflowing sympathy to the stars who play these two actors in real life.
Ye San’s worth is different now.
The difference is reflected in the fact that his agent Xiao Bai’s phone was flooded with calls that day.
Many well-known directors in the industry are asking about Ye San’s free time, hoping that he can participate in TV series or movies that will be broadcast on satellite channels.
They saw the potential in Ye San as an actor.
They tried to use his popularity to elevate the films they had in their hands, and to complement each other with Ye San.
Xiao Bai was so excited.
He has brought out so many movie stars, but Ye San was his career Waterloo.
Now, this Waterloo has stood up!
He began to arrange movies, advertisements, and TV series for Ye San.
And what about Ye San?
He sat at home.
He returned to the villa from the Lu family.
He felt his life was different.
The overwhelming abuse and hostility towards him on the Internet have decreased, and many people are shouting under his Weibo, "Third brother, third brother, mom loves you."
Fans were also pleased: "Sammo Hung's acting is explosive, Sammo Hung is the best, go for it, Sammo Hung's goal is the stars and the sea!"
He touched his heart.
Whispering, "There is no sea of stars, only... Fu Zhi."
Yes, only Fu Zhi.
His original intention was actually just to make Fu Zhi happier.
