Chapter 153: Box Office Counterattack (7/7)
In fact...
"Tomb Robbery Notes" and "Legend of the Gods" are essentially the same!
It's all money circle works.
also gathered a bunch of stars, and the same sword pointed at 2 billion...
The same sparse plot!
The difference is that "Tomb Robbery Notes" is really a big IP, and Lu Liuhai and Jing Boran do have a lot of fans...
"Legend of the Gods" made a mistake in casting, and Lu Liuhai + Brother Pao should be chosen...
I can't even play the fan economy!
Insert a sentence: "The Legend of the Gods" is known as a recognized bad movie, with a reputation at the bottom, and was even pulled out by "Minren Daily" to complain, and then what?
Long Wu and his daughter-in-law bought an entire page of an advertisement in the newspaper saying "It's not terrible to be ridiculed by the world, it's terrible not to be seen by you" - a kind of thing that can be hyped up and sold at the box office, you can scold me as much as you want - yes, what they value is that someone will pay for it, not whether it is a qualified movie at all!
This kind of behavior is capitalized 'I want to circle money'!
Tiger pounced, someone asked, 'Why are there so many bad movies this year?'
Lu Xiaoran replied first: 'Our company didn't produce a bad movie!'
After thinking about it, he replied: 'The market is a little impetuous, the audience is also a little impetuous, and more and more people are also talking about the myth of wealth creation in the film industry; after a movie is a big hit, many viewers can't wait to know how much the investors behind it earn; after a movie loses money, many viewers are also busy calculating the impact of the loss figure on the listed company - but all the hustle and bustle has forgotten how the movie itself should be a movie." ’
'Cinema is first cinema, then everything else... Fortunately, the audience's aesthetics have improved rapidly, and no one pays for bad movies!'
After answering this question, Lu Xiaoran picked up some more light questions, such as 'As a director, you should encounter a lot of temptations, right?'
'There are temptations, but I've never stepped beyond the thunder pool... 'Because I have love!'
Of course, the main reason is that he has no interest in hoarfrost - the tree-lined path you yearn for is actually full of hoarfrost every morning and night...
'Who do you think is the most beautiful actress now?'
'Purely talking about appearance, Liu Yifei is indeed the most beautiful actress I have ever seen, but her acting skills... Great for commercial films!'
'Why did you marry Sugar Candy?'
'Because of love, of course, but also because of why?'
After chatting with these people for about an hour, Lu Xiaoran said: 'Okay, I have to sleep, you guys should go to sleep quickly, I have to run an interview tomorrow, let's go, bye!'
Then, Director Lu Hupu promoted it on the hot search...
This hot search should be... Hupu bought it, because many people had gone to Hupu to promote it before, and Nazha was also crying - 'Whoever filmed a thunder drama this year, they all thought they were a character'...
"Xuanyuan Sword", disfiguring acting...
......
At the end of the first day, the single-day box office of "Dear" was 88 million, and the second day of "Notes on Tomb Robbery", the box office was 125 million, and 37 million were dumped...
No way, this is the influence of big IP!
"Nine-Story Demon Tower" had 110 million on the first day, and 100 million at the box office the next day...
Even "Yunnan Worm Valley" has 70 million on the first day!
Coupled with the peak of Lu Hailiu and Jing Boran's political popularity...
If you think about it, there were 72 million on the first day of "To Youth 2"...
Traffic + big IP, if there is no effect, capital will favor this model so much?
That's why "The Ferryman" specially invited him to star, and also asked him to sing a promotional song...
Do you really think that capital is blind?
There is no profit to be made, who will step on the horse and throw money?
Therefore, it is normal, even on August 7th, "Tomb Robbery Notes" still won a box office score of 98 million in a single day, leading..."Dear" 6 million, "Dear" 92 million in a single day...
The attendance rate completely counterattacked "Tomb Robbery Notes"...
Why?
The reputation is good, the quality of the movie itself is good, and it is normal to counterattack!
......
On August 8, Lu Xiaoran accepted an exclusive interview with Orange Entertainment in the company:
"I'm not a consumer subject. It's actually a very personal film, and I really think that filmmakers should take some social responsibility, and I will pay more attention to realistic themes in the future!"
"Censorship... Censorship is not a reason why we can't make good movies, "Orphaned" and "Dear" are all about the theme of abduction, and they can all pass the review!"
"The mainland market is quite tolerant of different types of films, that is, any film can be made, and all genres can be successful. Shooting realistic themes is also what I like, shooting people's emotional things, whether it is love, family, friendship, feelings, etc. ”
"I can't make a movie like the sixth generation, because I'm warm, and when it comes to criticizing reality, I think everyone has their own difficulties, and they are not easy... Of course, although Li Hongqin is very kind, her ending is also very tragic, and there must be something hateful about poor people..."
"The box office is not a flood beast, it is not a bad thing, it is not a devil, and chasing the box office is not necessarily a bad thing, as long as you can communicate with the audience when you make a movie, there will be a box office.
Having said that, whether a movie is good at the box office or not necessarily a good movie, it doesn't have to be.
Is it vulgar or bad movies with high box office?
I don't think these adjectives are right, you can't criticize another audience, they pay for tickets, they think they are watching bad movies, I think this is very unfair, very conservative and old-fashioned thinking.
We can't use our own perspective to judge other people's choices.
Because a hundred flowers are blooming, this is a golden age, everyone can like different things, different things have room to survive, and we should not suppress or criticize those audiences who have different aesthetics from us. ”
This answer is very... Very politically correct!
""Dear" box office, you always kidnap me with the box office, as if once my movie doesn't get a high box office, it will be a failure... I really don't think it matters, as long as I can pay for it!"
At the end of the ten-minute interview, the host was about to leave, and then Zhang Jin knocked on the door and walked in: "The box office of "Dear" has always suppressed "Tomb Robbery Notes"..."
"Really?"
"If you look at the attendance rate, our attendance rate is 26%, and the attendance rate of "Tomb Robbery Notes" is only 14.6%..."
"So..."
Lu Xiaoran suddenly stopped her mouth and looked at the host of Orange Entertainment a little embarrassed, who left with a smile...
......
Why did Lao Lu set "Dear" on August 6?
Just for the Tanabata stalls?
Don't have anything else in mind?
Fools know that he wants to use "Dear" against "Tomb Robbery Notes"!
just wants to prove that the so-called big IP+ traffic faction is not as good as high-quality and sincere movies.
Of course, these have to rely on the audience to pay.
Did the audience pay for it?
I really bought it!
On August 8th, "Dear" received 63 million in a single daily report, and "Notes on Tomb Robbery" slipped to 48 million, a weekday drop of more than 50%...
Don't worry, tomorrow's Qixi stall is the best time to score!
