Chapter 144 Box Office and Word of Mouth Double Explosion!(Ask for subscription!)

"Click!"

"Ahh

"Hahaha!!!!"

With a click, with the force of being pressed by the boulder, Deng Chao directly twisted the bones of his right arm first.

The bones are not broken, and it is impossible to cut the arm with that treasure-digging parallel folding knife.

"it!"

"Nima!"

"My hands hurt, I'll rub them!"

"Awesome!"

"Hardcore severed hand!"

"I'm still laughing!"

......

The stimulation of this "click" was even much stronger than Deng Chaozha's own knife just now, after all, he saw that people had broken their bones with their own eyes.

Someone subconsciously touched his right hand and pinched it, feeling that it was still on him.

In the crowd, Guo Fan listened to this exclamation and nodded secretly with satisfaction.

The screening of his first movie, of course, has to see the audience's reaction.

At the beginning of the movie, the audience didn't have any reaction, and Guo Fanxin mentioned it at that time.

But now, getting the majority of the audience to scream in the cinema block proves at least half the battle.

Hey.

Guo Fan couldn't help but laugh in a low voice.

An audience member next to him was surprised to see someone laughing in this situation.

He whispered, "Dude, is it that funny?"

Guo Fan immediately said, "No, I just like to watch movies to watch the protagonist being abused." ”

"Your habit is a bit special, people will substitute for the protagonist when they watch movies, you just like to watch the protagonist being abused, it won't be..."

Halfway through the words, the audience next to him immediately seemed to remember something, stopped talking, and moved to the side slightly.

Guo Fan didn't realize it, at this time, he saw that his movie could mobilize the audience's emotions, and he couldn't help but spoil it.

Seeing that the man next to him was sitting a little far away, he leaned over to him.

"I don't think it's bad, and there should be worse ones to come. ”

Hiss......

Breaking your own bones is not bad enough?

Perverted!

I heard that many people who like to watch thriller suspense horror movies have some special fetishes, and the same is true for those perverted killers in the movie.

Thinking of this, she immediately moved to the side without a trace, and accidentally touched the arm of the female audience on the other side, and was glared back by her boyfriend.

However, the next plot made them have no time to think about anything else.

After twisting his bones, Deng Chao used the folding knife to cut his arm little by little.

It may not be appropriate to use cutting, and it is too garbage to dig up parallel goods, so I directly use the knife as a saw.

"Don't pass out. ”

whispered to himself.

"Shhh

"Uhh!!h

Little by little, it didn't take long for the layer of flesh on the upper surface of the arm to be cut to the key tendon.

There was silence in the screening room, except for the sound of constant panting, and everyone stared at the big screen with unbearable expressions.

The knife had already touched the tendon, but the pain was getting worse, and there was a fear that the hand was about to be broken.

Every time I touch the tendons, it's like playing a string, implicating the brain, as if I can feel the heart-rending pain inside!

Finally, I made up my mind and slammed the knife with my left hand.

The tendon is broken!

"Ah!!h

With a scream, he immediately lost his voice.

Deng Chao's body leaned back suddenly, leaning against the mountain wall weakly, his pupils grew, his face was sluggish, his mouth was wide open, and saliva continued to flow out from the corners of his mouth.

"I'm special!"

"Nima!"

"Grass!"

The audience, who had been tense, immediately couldn't help it, blurted out swear words, and didn't care about the public place of the screening hall.

Some viewers couldn't bear to turn their heads away, or close their eyes slightly.

However, when it comes to this, I can't help but secretly watch the big screen.

Scared? or expectant?

Deng Chao saw the faces of his girlfriend, parents, and friends at the same time.

After a brief loss of consciousness, he immediately moved again.

The left hand kept cutting the remaining flesh of the person, but this paragraph was deleted by the photoelectricity, it was too bloody, leaving only the left hand holding the knife to keep cutting, and the right hand continued to splash flesh and blood.

Finally, the last part remains.

Under the severe pain, Deng Chao borrowed the inertia of his body and pulled his right hand back sharply.

A small voice rang out, it was the sound of arms completely parted.

Deng Chaozhuo choked back two steps and stared blankly ahead, looking incredulous.

The remaining half of his right arm was still stuck there by boulders and mountain walls.

"Wori!"

"It's broken, awesome!"

"I'm gritting my teeth!"

"This hand cutting is not much better than giving birth!"

"How do you climb out with one hand?

"This is a suspense movie, it's a complete horror movie!"

"Scalp tingling!"

......

Deng Chao lowered his head and stuck the broken arm in his hand, packed up his things, and took a picture with his camera.

Raising his head, he whispered to the blue sky, "Thank you." ”

Deng Chao, who had only one hand left, climbed up from the crack in the mountain with difficulty, exhausting all his strength.

Lying on the ground weakly, with his face against the earth, he laughed, and smiled so brightly.

After pouring a few mouthfuls of water into a muddy pool, and clutching his broken arm, he stumbled forward against the scorching sun.

The rousing music sounded, as if it could bring great encouragement to people.

In this situation, the audience couldn't help but get excited.

Come on!

Go ahead!

Go home!

A family of three who were traveling on foot appeared in front of them, and when they saw Deng Chao's situation, they trotted over.

Finally saw the person, the sunlight in front of him became extremely dazzling, and Deng Chao closed his eyes weakly, and introduced himself in his mouth.

"My name is... I was crushed by a rock last Saturday, I haven't eaten or drunk for five days, I cut off my arm this morning, can you give me some water?"

At this time, you can still stay awake.

A family of three looked at him with incredulous faces and handed him the kettle.

Then he helped him out of here.

"You should take a break. ”

"No, I have to keep walking, any of you can use the runner to run to the front. ”

The mother and child ran forward, and the father continued to walk forward with Deng Chao in his arms.

Ahead came another adventurer, who looked at him in the same incredulity and gave him his own water.

The helicopter came, kicking up a cloud of dust that made it impossible to open one's eyes.

Deng Chao was rescued.

The end of the credits resumes the opening scenes.

The camera turned, and three years later, Deng Chao and his girlfriend were sitting on the sofa, they were already married and had a child.

The camera flashed everywhere he went, except that his right hand had become a prosthetic.

He still loves to explore, but every time he goes out, he tells his family where he's gone and carries his phone with him

And so far, the film screening is over!

"Bang Bang Bang !!!"

"That's awesome!"

"This is a real man!"

"He's a ruthless man!"

"It hurts so much if I cut a leather bag, I can't stand this special sawing hand!"

"It's worth the money, and I'm still sweating when I turn on the air conditioner!"

.....

The screening venue, which was not a premiere, did not interact with the director and actors and the audience, and the audience spontaneously applauded.

This applause is given to the ruthless man in the movie who cut off his arm!

Even if it's a movie, anyone who watches it will admire it.

"Let's go, it's almost nine o'clock, let's go back. ”

Li Qian and Tong Liya also withdrew, Qi Yukun, Guo Fan, Su Lun, and Deng Chao were also in the cinema, disguised as ordinary audiences, after all, this was the only screening in Beijing today.

However, they all sat separately, and each did not notice the others.

Coming out of the screening hall, the other audience members who left the venue were still full of excitement, and some friends were still chatting with each other about the plot just now.

Tong Liya pulled Li Qian out of the movie theater, and couldn't help but keep talking about the sawing hand in the movie along the way.

"Li Qian, Brother Fan said that this story is what you think, how did you come up with this story, and there is such an extreme method as cutting your hands, it's too scary. ”

As he spoke, he couldn't help but think of the scene just now in his mind, he had just finished watching it, and he still remembered it vividly.

When I think about it, I can't help but shudder.

"What else can I think, think about it with my brain, I was going to shoot the Internet at the time, how to stimulate it, I thought of sawing hands, but Guo Fan still deleted some bloody scenes in the theater. ”

"It's horrible, I've seen some Hollywood bloody horror movies, and none of them are so scary. ”

Li Qian smiled, "That's different, those bloody horror movies in Hollywood are even a little disgusting, and this is cutting off your own hands in a desperate situation, that's the real horror." ”

......

"127 Hours" was screened 50 times in 50 cities across the country on Friday the 18th, and the average number of people per game was not much, after all, it was a suspense movie, a niche film, and it was not directed by Li Qian himself, but he just hung up the title of producer.

With an average of 55 people per game, the attendance was less than 40% during prime time on Friday night.

This number is low, but it is already high for a film that costs less than 1 million to make.

Attendance was low, but Saturday's screening continued as usual.

In order to get a good prime time screening, the box office of the screening was given 10 more points to the cinema, and there were not many screenings anyway, and the screening on Friday was only more than 80,000 yuan.

However, on Saturday, some viewers who watched the screening on the Internet mentioned this movie.

The average number of visitors per game on Saturday also increased, reaching 70 on Sunday.

The new four-day weekday did not hold screenings, after all, it is a niche film, and the audience on weekdays has decreased sharply, which has affected the attendance rate of screenings, and continues to be screened on Fridays, Saturdays and weekends.

By the second weekend, after word-of-mouth, the average number of people per game has reached an average of 98 people per game!

The screenings are all well-located halls, with an average of about 160 or 70 seats, and the attendance rate has reached 60%.

It's not high, but it's a big improvement.

Six days after the screening, it has already won nearly 350,000 box office.

Compared to the production cost of less than a million, it is already considerable.

However, the biggest gain is that the word-of-mouth of the movie has begun to spread, and many of the about 110,000 viewers who have seen the movie have spontaneously started to promote the movie.

"I highly recommend "127 Hours", by far the best suspense film of the year, the sawyman scared me half to death, and I almost didn't dare to watch it!"

"Same recommendation, I also watched the screening, the sawsaw is really a cow batch, it's okay to use a machete or axe to break an arm with a wave of force, maybe I can do it if I'm in a hurry, the key is that Mr. has to break the bones raw, and then use a knife to cut little by little, this is too terrifying, too bull X!"

"I watched it the day before yesterday, it really shocked me, I had an immersive feeling throughout the whole process, every struggle, every time I chiseled stones, every time I drank water, every time I shouted, every time I drank urine, that helplessness, suffocation, despair, are deeply engraved in my heart!"

"I always thought that the two women at the beginning would save the male protagonist, but I didn't expect it to be a soy sauce character, and finally I cut off my hands with a knife, ruthless!"

"What movie are you talking about, what sawyman?"

""127 Hours", produced by Li Qian, starring Deng Chao, Deng Chao's acting skills are really good, I am afraid of this. ”

"Didn't you say that it will be released on the 31st, I'm going to watch it, watch "Jaws: Revenge" on the 30th, watch this one on the 31st, why did it come out?"

"It's a screening, last weekend and last weekend in some places, we only have one screening a week in a movie theater in the city center. ”

"Tell me, what is this film about, what sawyman?"

"I'll tell you, I can't help but spoil it for a long time, that is, Deng Chao's outdoor expedition was pressed by a stone, trapped in a mountain crevice for 127 hours, just like the title of the film, and then finally used a folding knife to cut off his hand little by little. ”

"I'll go, really, it's too ruthless!"

That's what the title of the film meant. ”

"I didn't want to see it yet, but now I want to see it again. ”

"It's definitely worth watching, this movie is also of great warning significance, look at our current life, we will also encounter stones that hinder us, but it should not be as big as his, most of us have intact limbs and sound bodies, you have to force us to a dead end, you can send out your full strength, live hard, come on from now on, don't wait until there is no way out to go and then work hard!"

......

After six days of screenings of "127 Hours", word of mouth has exploded.

Although it was a small-scale explosion, it was only because the movie was too niche, and within the scope of specific suspense and horror movie lovers, the word of mouth exploded.

And after so many days, the film market has also changed.

"Red Cliff" broke 200 million in 11 days after its release, and the box office in the second week was infinitely close to 100 million.

However, in the third week, which was the week just past, because the word of mouth was not very good, there were only 48 million in a single week, a drop of more than 50%.

You must know that last year's annual Chinese film box office champion "Assembly" fell by less than 40% in the third week.

However, it is still no problem to break 300 million, and it is only 50 million short.

"Red Cliff" was also released for more than half a month, and with the start of the promotion of "Jaws" and the word-of-mouth of "127 Hours", these two movies have slowly occupied a certain degree of attention and will not be ignored.

At 6 p.m. on the 29th, "Jaws" once again held its premiere at UME Huaxing Cinemas.

Li Qian has also been busy with color grading and soundtrack in the studio for half a month, and he is short of the final dubbing and post-rendering.

I still have to attend the premiere, after all, it is a movie that I have invested in.

"Director Li, congratulations, the movie "127 Hours" has a very good reputation, and the box office has also made a great difference. ”

Wang Changtian has been in a good mood recently, there are no other movies in the summer except for "Red Cliff", and now "Red Cliff" has been released for 20 days and has entered the late stage, so the next mainland film market is "Jaws: Revenge" and "127 Hours".

As the issuer, it is equivalent to Guangxian dominating the entire August market!

""127 Hours" is a suspense movie after all, and it is not as touched as "Frequency of Life and Death", the audience is too small, and the box office will not be too high. ”

Li Qian is not so optimistic, the audience of "127 Hours" has a good reputation, but there are still a few audiences who like to watch this type of movie, and they are even more willing to spend money.

Even if a bad movie like "The City is Full of Golden Armor" can still harvest a large box office in a scolding, this is the power of blockbusters, even if the reputation is not good, some audiences buy it.

It is not easy for the audience to spend money to buy tickets, general dramas, suspense films, and action movies, and the audience who is willing to spend money is a minority, there are no big scenes, famous directors, and superstars, they think it is not worth it, and they are willing to wait for a period of time to watch piracy.

Wang Changtian didn't care, and laughed, "No matter how much box office it sells, "127 Hours" is a big hit, or Director Li has a good vision and chooses a good director." ”

"There are a lot of capable people, and some are just one chance away. Li Qian smiled.

After a little chat, the premiere began.

Li Qian also went on stage and said a few words casually, but handed over the stage to Qi Yukun.

The first time he participated in the premiere ceremony, he still participated as a director and the absolute protagonist, and Qi Yukun was inevitably a little nervous.

However, the two hosts on stage, Xie Yan and Liu Yan, are also the best among the young generation of entertainment hosts, and they still have the ability to control the stage.

Immediately after that, the film began to be screened.

Jaws: Revenge is similar to the first part, that is, every time the village chief and the resort owner don't believe it, or don't want to believe that there are sharks, and coerce the protagonist in various ways.

In the end, it finally caused a catastrophe, and after a few people died and a few others were injured, they finally became afraid. The heroic protagonist fights alone to rescue the children trapped in the sea by sharks, and after several battles, the protagonist cooks the great white sharks with high-voltage power wires to save the people on the island and the trapped children.

The most important point is to highlight the horror of the great white shark through the atmosphere, mainly describing the various behaviors of people when facing the great white shark, so as to add to the terrifying atmosphere when the great white shark attacked.

A rich kid on an underwater adventure, two women skiing on the water, a young couple making out in the sea, and finally a child attacked by a great white shark.

The attack of the great white shark escalated step by step, expanding little by little, from attacking people to attacking ships, so that the audience in front of the movie deeply felt the terrifying attack ability of the great white shark. At the same time, the helplessness of people in the face of the attack of the great white shark also shows how small and helpless humans are compared to this terrifying piranha.

I don't know what the director thinks in the second part of the original version, Jaws has many more appearances and appearances than the first part, completely missing the essence of the invisible fear of the first part.

In Qi Yukun's script and storyboard, Li Qian still made a deletion for him, and the core essence of this movie is the great white shark that is always hidden in the sea.

Except for the boat that attacked the children at the end, also like the first part, there is no time for the audience to see the entire shark body.

And there are many scenes of sharks abusing and killing the masses in the second part of the original version, in fact, there is no need, and you can escape immediately after a successful blow to deepen the fear.

The invisible is the most frightening thing, not the constant attack of sharks.

The overall structure and rhythm are basically the same as the first part, and the only difference may be that there is no freshness of the first part, which is unavoidable.

The 90-minute film slowly ended with the audience's constant whispers of exclamation.

In the end, the protagonist kills the shark and becomes a hero once again.

However, some viewers are still a little unsatisfied.

"This actor has killed the shark couple and his family, it's so pitiful!"

"What about the revenge that I said, the revenge has not been avenged, and I have taken my life again"

"It's all over the house, I don't know if they have parents and children!"

"Why don't you arrange for the shark to take revenge at the end, then it will become a god!"

"I thought the great white shark would succeed in revenge, and Shiro was looking forward to it. ”

...

Just when the audience was whispering, there was a sudden change on the big screen.

After killing the second great white shark, everything returned to a peaceful atmosphere, and it seemed that the movie was about to end, and the actor Li Guangjie was ready to go fishing by boat.

Suddenly, as soon as the boat left the shore, it was suddenly overturned by something.

Li Guangjie exclaimed, and then fell into the water.

The water surface churned for a while, and it didn't take long for Li Guangjie's body to sink.

The surface of the sea quickly turned red.

Immediately after the big screen goes black, the movie ends.

?????

????

What's the situation?

The audience was stunned by this sudden scene.

Immediately after, in a huge screening room, I remembered the sound of this overturn, and I didn't pay any attention to this public place.

"What the hell did I see?"

"The actor is dead?"

"I'm really right, the shark's revenge has been successful!"

"it, the director really dares to shoot it, and he shot the actor to death!"

"It's awesome, there's a third shark!"

"It doesn't have to be a shark, it could be something else. ”

"Don't even think about it, it's not a shark. ”

"I thought it was over, it scared me!"

"The most awesome monster movie in history, the actor was killed!"

"Wonderful, the last shot alone is much more exciting than the previous one!"

"I've long seen that this protagonist is unpleasant, and he has killed so many people!"

......

The audience was so excited, and in the end, the third shark that came out of nowhere killed the male protagonist seemed to be more exciting and exciting than the male protagonist killing the second shark.

"I'm the hero!"

Looking at this scene, Li Guangjie looked aggrieved and kept shouting in his heart.

But the audience couldn't hear what he was thinking, and no one cared about the dead hero, so the discussion didn't stop.

The last shot made the premiere ceremony complete, and then Qi Yukun came on stage to interact with the audience and answered some questions from the audience and reporters, and they were more excited than the other.

However, Qi Yukun has the essence of Li Qian's handling of the media, and when he talks about him, what he doesn't say is not what he says, and if you ask me, you are thanking the media and the audience.

After the premiere ceremony, at 12:20 p.m., Li Qian got the zero-point box office sent by Guangxian.

The zero point field is 1.3 million, which is 400,000 higher than the 900,000 of "Frequency of Life and Death" that has been screened.

"Frequency of Life and Death" originally had 500 games scheduled for the zero point field, and "Jaws: Revenge" is also this number.

However, late at night is more suitable for watching horror movies, "Jaws: Revenge" has the popularity of the first part, and Li Qian is a famous producer, and the overall popularity is higher than that of "Frequency of Life and Death" after the movie.

After all, it has been successful in the front, and this is the real box office appeal.

No matter how good a newcomer is, it is far inferior to other films that already have guaranteed box office results.

1.3 million zero-point scenes, for a movie with a production cost of 8 million, is already a big hit, it is foreseeable that the box office on the first day is definitely a very objective number, and the scale of the film schedule and copy release in the early days of "Jaws: Revenge" are not as small as the beginning of "Frequency of Life and Death".

"Jaws: Revenge" was a box office hit, "127 Hours" exploded word-of-mouth, and the success of the two movies was just around the corner.

PS: (6000 words chapter, the plot of "Jaws 2" will not be written, a routine with the first part, this film has changed the director, it is not recommended to watch it if it is not too idle, it cannot be compared with the first part, the core essence is missing, "127 hours" Ai Qiyi has the plot of the sawing hand, Teng Xun's was deleted, other channels don't know, you can go and see if you are interested.) )
