Chapter 537 Word of mouth hit the streets
Li Mo asked Deng Chao to shut up in the face of criticism, not for no reason.
Although this guy looks like he doesn't care about anything on the surface, he is an extremely strong person in his bones, and he will be hooked if he is a little flirtatious.
Li Mo clearly remembers that Deng Chao's "Breakup Master" and the husband and wife's "Villain Angel" encountered negative comments from netizens one after another, and Deng Chao actually directly scolded netizens on Weibo......
Not to mention whether the movie is good or not, which is a subjective point of view, the audience thinks it is not good, so they can naturally speak freely on various platforms, this kind of thing is simply uncontrollable in the era of self-media.
Even if someone is really maliciously leading the rhythm, it is not the realm where you Deng Chao and Sun Li should end up.
Not to mention that Deng Chao only has two hands and ten fingers, even if he incarnates as a thousand-armed Guanyin and ten thousand fingers, it is impossible to fight with hundreds of thousands or even millions of netizens.
In Li Mo's view, it is a very strange thing for filmmakers, or media people, to run to fight each other with the audience.
If you lose, you will lose face, your favorability will be lost, and you will inevitably collapse;
Win?
How can this kind of thing be won?
If you win one or two, can you still win a hundred thousand millions?
Are you kidding!
If it weren't for Deng Chao's inherent impression in the minds of the audience, coupled with his extensive travels and the interests of people in all aspects, where would he be able to continue the scenery later?
Although I don't know if Deng Chao will also talk to people on Weibo as he remembers, Li Mo asked himself that he has enough influence on him now, so after Zong Shuai was relieved, he specially mentioned such a sentence, asking Zong Shuai to warn Du Deng Chao in his own name.
In many related plans of Molong Media in the future, people like Deng Chao who do not have much to do with the giants in the industry will naturally have their own position......
Due to the release of the Hollywood blockbuster "Transformers 4" this weekend, there are no other movies that have been released this weekend except for "The Breakup Master" invested by Molong Media.
Although the audience and media at the screening had a poor reputation, Molong Media did not give up the follow-up publicity plan as the industry conjectured, but chose to continue to invest funds, and it seems that it has not been affected at all.
It's just that on the online platform that no one notices, there are slowly and steadily more posts and comments discussing the jokes of the movie itself, although there are not many of these things, but for most viewers who have not seen the screening, it still arouses a certain desire to explore.
Under the watchful eyes of industry insiders, "Breakup Master" was released on June 26 with "Transformers 4" one day ahead of schedule.
As expected, with the online release of "The Breakup Master", the number of moviegoers has increased significantly, and comments about Deng Chao's over-the-top performance have also begun to appear on a large scale on the Internet and various media platforms.
"As a directorial debut, Deng Chao, who has been in the entertainment industry for many years, did not give "The Breakup Master" enough awe,"
"The childishness and unreasonableness shown in the movie made him look very rude. In order to make a so-called "comedy", he did not hesitate to use exaggerated body movements, distorted facial expressions, and endless male and female costumes to squeak the audience, and this strong boredom and huge sense of oppression made the audience seriously disgusted. Deng Chao is like a child who does not know how to read words and feelings, after telling a joke that is not funny, he becomes angry with the indifferent audience, and forcibly squeaks the audience's armpits in order to make people laugh. ”
"The power of being a director makes Deng Chao swell to have no scruples, Deng Chao blatantly occupies all the bridges he thinks is brilliant in the movie, he wants to be too many roles, he wants to be handsome, affectionate, humorous, and filial, but he can't do anything, he can only show his exhausted feet. And hidden behind the so-called "sacrificial image" in these bridges is Deng Chao's arrogance for the purpose of being handsome. ”
Regarding the bad comments given by these netizens and audiences, Deng Chao, under Li Mo's suggestion, completely restrained the stubbornness and refusal to admit defeat in his character, but instead tried his best to create an impression of 'I have worked hard but the work failed to meet the audience's requirements, so I humbly accept all criticism, and only hope that the audience can go to the theater to watch the movie, at least go to the field to watch it before I have the right to speak and continue to complain'......
I don't know if the audience eats this set, or if they feel that they don't have the right to speak (slot) if they haven't seen the movie, "Breakup Master" unexpectedly won 52 million box office results on the first day of release, and as of the first weekend until June 29, "Breakup Master" won a total of 220 million box office results.
Although this result is a huge gap compared to the 630 million first weekend box office of "Transformers 4", for Molong Media, this result is enough to ensure a gross profit of more than 20 million in terms of production.
…… Not to mention that the publicity and distribution department can also take ten percent of this box office figure, that is, a distribution commission of 22 million......
In just this weekend, Molong Media has recovered all the production and distribution costs and entered the stage of profitability.
For Deng Chao, this box office figure is also great news.
Because, according to the salary agreement signed between him and Molong Media, if the box office performance of "The Breakup Master" did not exceed 200 million yuan, then the total salary of his director and actors would only be 9.5 million yuan, which is even comparable to the value of the heroine Yang Mi, which shows what a tragic price Deng Chao paid in order to get the right to speak as a director.
But when the total box office crossed the threshold of 200 million yuan, Deng Chao's remuneration immediately became 5% of the total box office of the movie;
The box office figure exceeded 500 million, 10 percent;
more than a billion, fifteen percent;
More than two billion ......
Not to mention Li Mo, Deng Chao himself didn't believe that "The Breakup Master" could reach that point.
You must know that before June 2014, none of the Chinese entertainment movies had a box office performance of 2 billion, and the results of "Thai Embarrassment" are already unattainable in the eyes of Deng Chao now.
…… Hehe, when Zhou Xinchi's "Mermaid" is launched next year, Deng Chao probably won't be so easy to fool.
No matter how bad reviews and complaints are constant, Deng Chao and his "Breakup Master" are in this stormy environment, while resisting the complaints of the outside world without changing their faces, and unceremoniously absorbing the box office brought by the audience entering the movie......
In this case, many people in the industry have also begun to notice "The Breakup Master", a movie that has a good reputation but a bumper box office.
