Chapter 605: The Dark Horse is Coming
On the evening of the thirtieth day of the Chinese New Year's Eve, the Spring Festival Gala has not yet ended.
As soon as the early hours of the morning passed, the "midnight show" of the Spring Festival stalls began to officially debut.
In this Spring Festival, there are a total of 16 newly released movies, of which only 8 are released in full, and the other 8 are all small productions and small costs, and they are released in some theaters.
8 movies, each of which is not an ordinary product, dares to be released on the whole line during the Spring Festival, and may be the most shabby is "Goodbye, Boy".
After all, its investors are really poor.
Because of the lack of publicity strength and manpower, "Goodbye, Boy" didn't even have a premiere.
In fact, at this time, if they want to hold the launch ceremony, it is estimated that they will not be able to grab other movies.
But the appeal of Gu Xiaobai and Fu Wenyao is still online, and the pre-sale on the first day has a box office of 30 million.
Wang Dawen thinks that no matter how hard he hits the street, he can still have a box office income of 40 or 50 million.
Dongcheng Plaza, the manager of a national chain of cinemas, stood for a while at the entrance of the cinema where the building was empty and only the elevator was left.
At this point, there was hardly anyone in the hall.
There may be a lot of people watching movies on the first day of the new year, but not on the 30th day of the Chinese New Year's Eve.
The theme of the Chinese New Year's Eve is the Chinese New Year's Eve dinner and the Spring Festival Gala, and nothing can shake its status.
"I don't know how many people will be in the midnight tonight...... "The manager thought, should he go back early?
Anyway, if there are few people, I don't think I need to be on duty here.
Thinking so, the manager wandered back to his office, drank two cups of tea, and took a nap before he saw a foreman running over: "Manager, it's fully booked!
"What's fully booked?"
"No, it's "Goodbye, Boy" that is fully booked!"
"Goodbye, boy?" the manager opened the backstage and took a look, and saw that the backstage was red.
In the entire small theater, only the last row of corners remains, and there are still two seats.
"What's going on? Is it a fan charter......
Previously, they have also seen such a situation, the first time some traffic stars made a movie, on the first day of the premiere, fans agreed to charter a movie in a certain theater.
A lot of times, it's also a ghost field.
Look at the reservations, it is full.
However, when I went into the theater to take a look, there was no one ......
It looks scary.
"That's a good thing...... and can make money, and there is no need to arrange cleaning...... "The manager is still a little happy."
Anyway, it's not their own fraud.
On the night of the thirtieth night of the Chinese New Year's Eve, who wants to be busy.
Then he heard the assistant say, "It's not good at all, there's a fight at the door!"
When he followed the assistant out, he saw that there were already many people outside, bustling, waiting for the ticket check to enter the venue.
At the ticket office, there were many young ladies who were questioning the conductor.
"You say they're all sold out......? On the night of the thirtieth night of the Chinese New Year's Eve, who came out to watch the movie when they were full!"
Next to her, her boyfriend glanced at him resentfully, you......
Another family of three, out of the elevator, saw so many people dumbfounded, the wife complained to her husband: "What's the situation? Why are so many people? What? There are no tickets? I said let you buy it first on the road, you have to say that you don't have to buy it in advance......
The husband suddenly smiled slyly: "Wife, can we go back to sleep?"
"You ...... Are you doing it on purpose!" The wife immediately became angry and beat her husband violently, and the four or five-year-old baby next to her clapped loudly.
It seems that this is another man who has no place in the family.
Look at the entire theater again, there are not a few such people.
"What about the manager, what about the boss, can you add up?"
"yes, we can charter it...... There are so many of us, you won't regret it......"
The manager smiled bitterly: "I'm sorry, the schedule was arranged the day before and reported, there is really no more session...... So, let's see if there are any other shows you'd like to see? ”
"I just want to watch "Goodbye, Boy" and I don't want to watch other shows......"
"That'...... Why don't you see if there are any other shows?" "I really don't want to do much today, so let's hurry up."
"Ah, it's too late to rush over now, let's add one......" The wife was still not satisfied, "Otherwise, you can't sell standing tickets, we can take Mazha and sit in the aisle......"
Next to "poof......", my husband was completely impressed by his wife, this imagination is worthy of my wife!
"Forget it, in the middle of the night, let's go back to sleep, and I'll come to you early tomorrow morning to see if it's okay...... Now go back first, I'll buy you a ticket for the day, buy a ticket!" My husband turned on his phone, ready to buy a ticket, and then his eyes widened suddenly.
"I'll go!"
The audience is popular!
After midnight, the theater closes, the next one is 9 a.m., then 10:45 a.m., each of which is almost sold out, leaving only the corners and corners.
After hesitating, even the 10:45 game was gone, and I could only grab the 12:45 game.
How to eat lunch now, I have to worry about it.
"Hurry up, grab it! It's all your fault, I said I wanted to grab the ticket early! There is a cameo from my little white, alas, how can it be easy to grab......"
"Isn't it just Xiaobai......"
"What's not Xiaobai, you guy, Xiaobai fell asleep when he performed on stage, do you know what you missed......"
"Wife, wife, I grabbed it, from another theater, wife, can I go to watch something else when you watch this movie? I want to watch "Crazy Life", I watched it, and there are ...... tickets"
"No, I'll punish you for reading it with me, and I'll write a 1,000-word review of it!"
"Is 500 words okay?"
A family of three, while arguing, left.
The studio manager, on his part, appeased many viewers who wanted to watch the movie but couldn't see it, and gave each person a hot drink, sent them away, and then sighed.
Because eight movies are competing at the same time, the number of films scheduled for "Goodbye, Boy" is very small, about 10% of the film schedule.
As far as he knows, the number of films in his own house is still high, and the number of films in other theaters is even lower.
But now it seems that its box office is probably really going to explode.
"No, I'll ask about the other stores. The studio manager turned on his mobile phone, glanced at the store manager group, and was immediately dumbfounded.
A flurry of messages.
""Goodbye, Boy" exploded, do you want to increase the number of films scheduled tomorrow......"
"Isn't this movie a small budget? Why is it so explosive? Is it really because of Gu Xiaobai? This appeal is too terrifying. ”
"Did you watch the Spring Festival Gala just now? You will know if you watch it, Gu Xiaobai's scene is too shocking! It is really strong to cheat and hang up! It is really not strange to have this kind of popularity on the first day. ”
The two main creators appeared together, and they also sang the theme song at the Spring Festival Gala, which is really appealing. ”
"Do you want to increase the amount of film scheduling tomorrow......"
"This kind of film, idol effect, youth campus film, doesn't have much attraction, maybe it will return to its original shape tomorrow......"
"I guess it's going to be a dark horse, but I don't know if I can make it to ......the end."
"Just look at word of mouth. ”
Yes, the box office is a thing, the first day looks at popularity, and the second day looks at word of mouth.
If you are really sloppy, unless there is a close-up of Gu Xiaobai's 360 degrees without dead ends at all times, it is strange that you can sell tickets!
Movies, in the final analysis, still have to have a good story, and everything else is the icing on the cake.
An hour and a half later, the first movie ended.
The first audience walked out of the theater that ended.
