Chapter 75
Due to the time difference, when Lu Zixi was still spending Christmas Eve with Yan Yunzhen, it had already jumped to December 25th in China.
The magazine went on sale on time at midnight, and the first screening of the movie "Clinic No. 58" opened at midnight.
As a giant in the industry, Yuanhong is also quite powerful in terms of cooperation with theater chains. "Clinic No. 58" is screened almost in every time period, and more intensive screenings are arranged during prime time. Promotional posters are also put out early, and promotional standees are placed at the entrances of major theaters. Such a lineup is not inferior to many powerful Spring Festival films, and it can even be said to be quite competitive. However, because it is so competitive, it makes the partners feel a little uneasy when they don't understand the situation.
From their point of view, even if Yan Yunzhen is in this play, even if the director of this play is Zhou He who is proficient in commercial film shooting, even if this play is adapted from a big IP and has its own audience, even if the early publicity is very in place, this is not the traditional Lunar New Year period after all - it is not a lively, joyful and peaceful comedy, but a heavy subject that touches on national hatred and family feuds. If it is released at this time, the audience may not buy it.
Is a movie like this really worth such strong publicity and initial investment?
Did Yuanhong make a wrong move in this chess game?
Nobody knows.
Therefore, at the beginning, not all partners were willing to provide a large number of screenings for "Clinic No. 58". Instead, they chose to cautiously provide the number of screenings required for a movie under normal circumstances. They were watching and waiting for the results of market testing.
The time difference between China and abroad is only thirteen hours.
However, thirteen hours is enough to prove a lot.
When the clock struck midnight on the other side of the Pacific Ocean, it was one o'clock in the afternoon in China. At this moment, all the major cinemas in China were busy with one thing -
Adjust the schedule of each movie.
Even if it means offending people, the showtime for "Clinic No. 58" must be cleared.
It’s because the combat power of this movie is too strong. You’d be an idiot not to make money!
Although the first showing of "Clinic No. 58" was a midnight show, the extremely late time could not dampen the enthusiasm of the fans. As early as a few days before the movie started, all the movie tickets that could be booked were sold out. It can be said that every show was packed.
Some of them may not have the time to watch it, and some even buy tickets and give them away for free. They do this for one reason -
Tell the authorities that their Lu Xiaoyang is very capable of making money, so please be sure to give him more resources!
On Weibo, fans almost spontaneously gathered in super topics, organized by leading fans and fan clubs, and began to promote the popularity of the movie.
[Yan Lu is the sweetest in the world]: This is Xiao Yang's first movie. The higher the box office, the stronger his ability is, and the more beneficial it is for his future development. We can see more and better works of Xiao Yang and send him to a higher position! Everyone who has money can support the movie with money, and those who don't have money can support the movie with their personal presence. Please support it as much as possible, and remember to recommend it to your friends and family to watch it! The best Lu Wenqi No. 58 Clinic in the world, Yan Lu
[Lu Wenqi Global Fan Club v]: Yes! If you don't know how to recommend it, you can go to the Super Topic Highlights area to read the long Weibo, which summarizes the recommendations of "No. 58 Clinic" to Wen Zhang, Lu Wenqi to Wen Zhang, and Yan Lu CP to Wen Zhang. Everyone, please share it! If you are attracted by the movie, grab it quickly and don't let it run away. Absorb it into your own people. Let's quickly suck sheep together every day from now on! Quq recommends Lu Wenqi to the world
[Mu Xiao]: And it’s not a false recommendation, because it’s really good! I’m already planning to watch it a second time. Is anyone ready to join me?
[Bunny]: Me! I need to suck sheep!
【Boundary Beyond°】: I feel suffocated when I think of the death of Master Xiaojun... Xiaoyang, can we have a happy ending in the future? @Lu Wenqi What to eat today v
[A soon-to-fly meow]: Ahhh what a magical day today is! The bookstore downstairs from my house already has the Christmas special issue of Aurora! The cover is amazing! The real thing is even more impressive than the official promotional images. This Yanlu girl has already felt the beauty of this holiday qaq
Mr. Lu Wei: The above is a wise move. [Goodbye!] Those who bought online and can't get the magazine are already regretting it to death. They can only spend money on Xiaoyang again and go out to the bookstore to buy it themselves. Orz, I heard that this is because the official refused to approve the reprint of too many magazines. They felt that Xiaoyang's fame was limited, his purchasing power was limited, and the magazine's popularity was even more limited. They thought that relying on the male idol alone to carry the show wouldn't be enough. So, based on the pre-sale results, they printed this batch of magazines with a very conservative plan. As a result, there is not enough stock now. The official blog is apologizing, saying that online shopping channels will be slower than expected... Oh my god, who gave them the wrong impression that our fan base is so weak? Were we too Buddhist before?
【不值】：[Smile] This time, I, Yanlu girl, will buy them a bomb, so that they can feel the power of us, the group of CP fans besides the only fans.
【白马非马】: The sales of the magazine should also affect whether Xiaoyang will continue to appear in the magazine in the future, and the quality of the magazine. So what else can I say? Buy, buy, buy!
…
In fact, if it had been any other newcomer, there might not have been such a big commotion. But Lu Zixi was different. He became famous too quickly, but his work never followed up, leaving fans with nowhere to vent their love. They really wanted to spend their money but had nowhere to spend it. After waiting for so long, a work finally came out. Magazines and movies aren't expensive products, so naturally everyone wanted to support it. And while the domestic market for "Dawn Aurora" wasn't large enough, it still had a certain audience. Add to that the top traffic of Yan Yunzhen, who was a walking trending search on almost every media outlet, the crazy shopping of his CP fans and Lu Wenqi's fans, and passers-by who were originally curious to join in the fun but ended up being attracted by the magazine. As night fell on the other side of the Pacific, the physical bookstores were actually running out of stock of "Dawn Aurora".
While expediting printing and distributing goods to major bookstores in China, he also did not forget to report the good news to Yan Yunzhen and Lu Zixi. The first battle was a victory, which was a good thing for everyone.
After hearing what Yan Yunzhen conveyed on the phone, Lu Zixi was stunned.
In his previous life, although he had a good appearance, he was generally a talented actor. Most of his fans were fans of the work and had a good impression of the actor himself, but they were somewhat distant and did not show much enthusiasm. But this time, although he was very talented, his initial fame came from the CP pairing on Weibo, which naturally attracted a lot of fans. Those fans started following him when he was still a newcomer without any works, watching him grow step by step. This kind of nurturing route will make fans have a strong desire to protect him, a kind of impulse similar to working hard to make money to support their son, pushing him to a higher level.
After Lu Zixi reacted, his emotion instantly changed from surprise to touching.
He really wants to thank these fans who work hard for him to help him realize his dream. Even for these people, he must work hard to be worthy of their love.
"You're really great, you deserve this kind of love." Yan Yunzhen seemed to be able to guess what he was thinking. He reached out and combed Lu Zixi's hair, looking at him tenderly and said, "I'm very happy that so many people think you're great like me, and like you as much as I do."
"I feel a sudden surge of pressure," Lu Zixi smiled. "I feel like I'm carrying a heavy burden. What I'm carrying now is not only my own dream, but also everyone's expectations."
"With pressure comes motivation," Yan Yunzhen comforted him, "Don't be afraid, you still have me."
"Speaking of which...when will your mom and grandpa come?" Lu Zixi leaned on his shoulder, looking at the fireplace that was deliberately decorated in a medieval style, and asked while warming himself by the fire, "Are we just family members here? No outsiders?"
"Soon, it should be almost done once the people in the restaurant sober up." Yan Yunzhen finished answering, then caught the subtle point in the previous words, "Hmm? Family, who are you to my family?"
Lu Zixi clearly heard it, but he pretended to be deaf and dumb, looking around and talking about something else: "As for red wine, I can probably drink a little. I don't know how much I can drink now."
"Drink as much as you want, as long as you don't drink too much. I can handle you if you get drunk and take you back to your room. You can jump around as you please." Yan Yunzhen pinched the tip of his nose, lowering his voice with a gentle laugh, "You are my baby, who I finally got with great difficulty."
The author has something to say: Something is expected to happen tomorrow.
I shouldn't just gloss over it, and write it in a stream-of-consciousness style. I hope that my article won't be reported and locked for two days for some weird reasons. Please let me go if you have reported it. I didn't apply for the list.
I will send out the red envelopes tomorrow! I hope the backend will be back to normal tomorrow... I don't know what's wrong with Jinjiang today, I can hardly post anything, my head is bald orz
