Chapter 162: Amazing Zero Box Office

Without waiting for Lu Lin to think about it, Wang Changtian's phone called. Guangxian is mainly responsible for the publicity work of the publicity project of "Hou Yi Shooting the Sun", and after the premiere, the views of the media and the evaluations of various film critics are the focus of the Guangxian publicity department.

Early this morning, the people from the Bright Propaganda Department saw this film review on Douban, and some people felt that they needed to pay attention to it, so they reported it all the way to where Wang Changtian was.

Da Lao Wang is a self-made rich generation, and his vision is still quite sharp. He felt that this film review was written like that, but the timing of its appearance was not very good. If you want to say that after the end of the screening, whether it is the film critic or the audience, how to interpret it is a personal opinion.

But it has not been officially released yet, and it is a critical moment for publicity, and it is not good to come up with such a controversial interpretation. But the most important thing is what Lu Lin thinks. Is it a metaphor interpreted by film critics, and when Lu Lin filmed it, he went there.

"Director Lu, have you seen the movie reviews on Douban?"

Lu Lin smiled and said, "You mean to interpret the victory of the Anti-Japanese War from the film, right?"

Wang Changtian said: "Yes, this is it, when you filmed, there were no metaphors, right?"

Lu Lin said with a smile: "I graduated from junior high school in martial arts, it's good to be able to tell the story of a commercial blockbuster clearly, how can I have the leisure to make metaphors?"

Wang Changtian let out a sigh of relief and said, "It's good if you don't have it, it's good if you don't have it." When you are interviewed later, don't say that you have, you can't cause controversy. Besides, it will be released simultaneously in Japan, South Korea and Southeast Asia, and Japan is a big box office, so it's not good to cause any antagonism!"

Lu Lin smiled bitterly, and said continuously: "I understand, I understand! Don't worry, there is no metaphor at all!"

After hanging up the phone, Lu Lin wanted to laugh and feel frightened when he thought of this, how to interpret it?

The script of the movie is not easy to make, it is too simple, the audience finds it boring, and it is too complicated, and it is not good, there is a high probability that the director can't understand it, and the audience can't understand it.

A film that can make a just right story and conceal a metaphor for self-justification has to be the work of a master. Lu Lin's current level is at most a top craftsman, and he still has a long way to go before he is a master.

As for the cold, it reminds me of a joke that Mr. Guo said, artist A reacted to the higher department, and artist B said that there is no treasure island in it, which is .......

Otherwise, Chinese movies are not competitive, the subject matter is too restricted, and there are not many things that can be made. Otherwise, Lu Lin would not have bought "League of Legends" and made a "Company of Heroes" movie set in a future city!

The car entered the city and soon came to the theater that had been contacted in advance. Although it was only a small-scale screening, there were quite a lot of audiences, and the entire theater was full.

When interacting with the audience in the theater, some people still ask about film reviews. A boy with glasses and a man who looked like a man said: "Director Lu Lin, I read a movie review on Douban, and the above interpretation says that this movie implies a metaphor for China's suffering over the past century, is that so?"

Lu Lin laughed and said: "When I was making a movie, I really didn't think about it so much. ”

The boy asked again: "But I watched the movie review first, and then watched the movie, and I think the interpretation makes a lot of sense!"

Lu Lin paused, and then said with a smile: "Don't talk about Hamlet, our film is Houyi shooting the sun, Chang'e, and she will definitely go to the moon in the future." Let's talk about the moon, there are so many people who have admired the moon throughout the ages, some people chant poems, some people fantasize about landing on the moon, some people come up with science fiction, some people write love stories, but the moon is still the moon. Eternal and unchanging, illuminating the past and the present!"

After saying this, the scene was silent for a few seconds, and then thunderous applause rang out.

In the afternoon of the same day, Lu Lin's video was uploaded to the Internet, and under the operation of the glamorous staff, the number of hits skyrocketed and the praise continued.

Some netizens commented: "Director Lu Lin is so awesome, he compares his work to the moon, what you can think of after reading it is your business!"

"I can think of erotica!"

"Chang'e is mine, draw your sword!"

"The second floor is too obscene, drag it out and kill it!"

"The third floor isn't so good!"

In this way, with the concerted efforts of Longlin, Bona, and Guangxian, the advertisements, pushes, and topics related to "Houyi Shooting the Sun" have been bombarded in an all-round way and have come into people's eyes.

When you go out to take the bus, there is a hard platform. Go home or go to work to do an elevator, and there is also an advertisement for "Hou Yi Shooting the Sun". Among the top ten box office cities, there are trailers of "Houyi Shooting the Sun" on outdoor LED screens.

As for the Internet, Wang Changtian personally commanded the glamorous propaganda department, always keeping an eye on the hot topics related to "Hou Yi Shooting the Sun", as well as the comments on various rating websites. If you find an abnormal score, you must report it as soon as possible.

Bona, on the other hand, focuses on distribution, negotiating film scheduling with major theaters, posters in theaters, and KT boards.

As for Longlin Pictures' strength is production, distribution and publicity are mainly based on Bo Na and Guang Xian.

It can be said that in the current domestic film market. Long Lin is good at producing, Bo Na is strong in distribution, and glamorous is very good at hype. The cooperation of the three is basically an invincible state.

It's just that the lion fights the rabbit, and he does his best. "Hou Yi Shoots the Sun" is such a big investment movie, and none of the three companies dares to take it lightly, while doing their work conscientiously, while waiting for the arrival of January 10.

On the evening of January 9th, at Beijing Bona Youtang International Cinema, at more than 9 o'clock in the evening, some audiences waited in the theater one after another. As for movie tickets, they were sold out a few days ago.

In addition to Bona in the capital, theaters with zero point fields are arranged all over the country, and the halls are basically overcrowded. Especially in IMAX theaters, it is absolutely hard to get a ticket.

The pre-sale situation has actually been counted a long time ago, but it has not been officially released, and everyone is not very confident in their hearts, for fear that something will happen, and they dare not be happy too early.

In the early morning of January 10th, the box office results of the zero o'clock field were released, and they were transmitted to the three companies of Longlin, Bona, and Guangxian, which attracted a burst of hearty laughter.

20.22 million!

What is the concept, Director Feng's painstaking work "1942", which only had a box office of 25 million on the first day. Such a zero-point field result can only be broken when "Transformers 4" is released a year and a half later.

After the news was announced, the industry was in an uproar. It's so high, it's too scary! The zero o'clock show is about to catch up with the box office on the premiere day, and it doesn't make people have a way to live! Is the blockbuster so profitable?

As for China Film and Wan Da, who had the opportunity to participate in "Hou Yi Shooting the Sun", after getting such a box office result at 0:00 on the premiere day, they had to have a good meeting without exception.

And Huayi, who is still in a state of box office war with Longlin Pictures, is basically confused!
