Chapter 181: How Did It Break 100 Million?

To say that the whole country is shocked, it is really a national shock!

Well-informed media from all walks of life have been paying attention to the Sunday box office of "Red Sorghum", and in the middle of the night, as soon as the box office was counted here, in less than half an hour, all media had already grasped the box office information.

After being taken aback, he seized the time to adjust the typesetting level reserved for him upwards, and at the same time hurried to write the manuscript, and at the same time, all kinds of media, especially newspapers, did not forget to seize the time to notify the film critics and columnists who worked closely with him overnight.

As a news media, of course, it will choose to report the news event itself of the box office explosion of "Red Sorghum" as soon as possible, but at the same time, just reporting the news itself, plus boasting, how much space can it occupy?

In the final analysis, digging out topics from the news is the only way to increase the attention and sales of newspapers.

As for the topic this time, it's good to dig!

Because the box office of "Red Sorghum" suddenly exploded, the fact itself is already full of topics!

Just over half an hour after various media received the news, the news that the box office of "Red Sorghum" was as high as 134.65 million in the first week had been posted on the Internet by well-informed people.

Then, the major forums spread rapidly.

Li Qian's fans and fans applauded and praised loudly, but the editors and writers of various media immediately set their sights on some other posts.

As a literary film, how can "Red Sorghum" have such a high box office?

This question has been asked to many people's hearts at once!

Especially for many reporters and editors who have been engaged in reporting film and entertainment news for many years, they were also attracted by this part of the discussion on the Internet for the first time.

Yes, it's just a literary movie, how can it explode at the box office to this extent?

So...... Here comes the topic!

…………

The next day, March 19, early in the morning, various newspapers came out one after another.

The box office explosion of "Red Sorghum", with a first-week box office of 134.65 million, has indisputably become the headline of today's major newspapers or front-page headlines or cultural and entertainment pages.

In the manuscript of the report, almost all newspapers were either amazed and praised the historic box office results achieved by "Red Sorghum" as a literary film, or they questioned one after another: As a literary film, how can and how "Red Sorghum" achieve such a high box office?

Then, the advantages were enumerated one by one and overturned one by one.

Three Silver Bears and one Golden Bear at the Berlinale?

Yes, there must be a bonus to this one, and the bonus is obvious!

But relying on this alone, not to mention the amazing box office of 134.65 million in the first week, it is already remarkable to be able to exceed 50 million - or that sentence, this is a literary film that is destined not to be too popular!

Moreover, whether you admit it or not, whether you admit it or not, whether it is the Berlin Film Festival, the Cannes Film Festival, or the Venice Film Festival, because the domestic media has not reported much for many years, so although as the most famous three major European film festivals, their forced standards are high, but in fact, the domestic people and movie audiences are not very familiar with these three major film festivals.

Qin Wei won the award in Venice, of course, there was a wave of reports in China, and Qin Wei was suddenly crowned to the supreme master's throne, Li Qian won the award, and everyone hurried to popularize science about what was going on at the Berlin Film Festival, what is the Golden Bear Award, what is the Silver Bear Award, and how these two awards were issued in the past and to whom, so as to confirm and explain that the award of "Red Sorghum" this time is so great and remarkable - but in the final analysis, it is just a grinding gun!

The reason why you still need to introduce and popularize science like this is precisely because if you don't popularize science, everyone doesn't understand where the excitement is!

In this case, simply bragging that a certain movie has won an international award, and the people will definitely go to the cinema to buy tickets when they return to China?

Don't be funny!

Then, Li Qian's box office appeal is amazing?

This certainly makes sense.

Needless to say, Li Qian's own popularity is unparalleled in the domestic entertainment industry and showbiz, and ...... The first international film festival actor in China!

This forced style is equivalent to coating Li Qian's already incomparable strong popularity, and a layer of golden glittering shell, which looks simply golden and incomparable!

However, a literary film, with just one star, can provoke an amazing box office that broke 100 million in the first week?

Not to mention China, even in the United States, in Hollywood, if you ask Jerry Cullen to star in a movie, he is not so good - there is no precedent at all!

As for the heroine...... Qin Jingjing herself, with her outstanding and rarely matched beauty, has such a small place in China's film and television industry and entertainment industry.

After all, he made his debut as Diao Chan in "Romance of the Three Kingdoms"!

But do you expect her to be a third-tier actress who hasn't made any serious works in the past many years, and hasn't even played the heroine of a movie, to play the box office and pull the audience?

The joke is big!

Then, talk about the movie itself.

What's the story...... It's not ugly, compared with other literary movies whose stories are so obscure that they make people drowsy, "Red Sorghum" basically tells a great story more beautifully.

But the problem is that there is no shortage of literary film directors who can tell stories!

Not to mention anything else, director Zhang Zifangzhang, that is a typical niche literary film director who can tell stories. But as a result, she has made so many movies over the years, and none of the movies have reached a box office of 100 million!

So, how could it break 100 million in the first week?

It simply doesn't make sense!

However, no matter how these writers analyzed, in the end, they still had to admit: the reality is that the box office of "Red Sorghum" in the first week was 134.65 million!

It really broke 100 million historically!

…………

"Tsk...... That's amazing!"

Monday, March 19, 10 a.m.

Oriental Media Group, Chairman's Office.

Zhou Yanghua was looking at the documents seriously on the desk, while Du Weiyun was sitting on the sofa, cocking Erlang's legs comfortably, the coffee on the coffee table was fragrant, and he was holding the newspaper in his hand, reading it with relish, and exclaiming from time to time.

can stay so comfortable in Zhou Yanghua's office, and hundreds of people up and down the entire Oriental Media Group add up, and there is only one Du Weiyun.

is similar to the relationship between Qin Weizhi and Hu Fei, who made Du Weiyun the signboard of Oriental Media Group.

Zhou Yanghua glanced up at him from time to time, and then withdrew his gaze.

He knew what Du Weiyun was looking at - the box office of "Red Sorghum" captured the front pages of almost all newspapers early this morning.

After all, literary films are nothing, and literary films are nothing if they are well made, but literary films have won four awards at the Berlin Film Festival, which is a root vegetable, and now this literary film that has won awards has won more than 130 million box office in the first week of its release, ranking first on the box office list, which is even more of a super news that no relevant media does not pay attention to.

If you count the news revealed to the media by Minghu Culture, the sales of this film in various film markets around the world have exceeded 47 million US dollars, and it is still increasing.

Once a single event exceeds the threshold that limits itself, its influence will inevitably far exceed the normal range of the event itself, and even reach a level of stunning!

Therefore, "Red Sorghum", which has been extremely popular recently, has now won the first-week box office of 134.65 million in one fell swoop, if any newspaper does not report it, it will definitely be outdated!

This obviously made Du Weiyun, who read the newspaper, very greedy.

Qin Wei or Du Weiyun, they all started from art films, internationally speaking, Du Weiyun's reputation and influence are far inferior to Qin Wei, in China, it can only be regarded as a little inferior, both of them are also regarded as master directors of domestic films, and in fact, Du Weiyun made a series of historical and martial arts films in the early years, although they have not won awards internationally, but in China they have won trophies and praise, and those movies have long been regarded as masterpieces of the perfect combination of commerciality and artistry!

But even he, who has been in the domestic film industry for many years, has never won even once the box office in the first week exceeded 100 million!

And now, "Red Sorghum", a literary film with a small investment, has actually exceeded 100 million yuan in the first week!

How could he not be envious!

Inside the desk, Zhou Yanghua listened to Du Weiyun muttering there, and finally couldn't help but put down the document and said: "Okay, Lao Du, if you are greedy, then you can do a good job of publicity, and when this "Lonely Smoke in the Desert" is released, surpass him!"

Du Weiyun raised his head and smiled, his demeanor was free, he looked relaxed and comfortable, dragged the strange Hunan dialect Mandarin, and said, "Surpass him, that's a must!"

After a pause, he said: "If it can't break 100 million in the first week, my boss will lose his underwear!"

Zhou Yanghua couldn't cry or laugh.

Originally, when he came to the office this morning and saw the newspaper, his mood was really checked, but at this time, he was so gaged by Du Weiyun for a while, but he felt that his heart was not so wretched.

So he simply dropped the materials, got up, and said as he walked: "I see that you finished cutting the film, are you idle?"

Du Weiyun laughed and was about to speak, when he suddenly remembered a knock on the door in the office.

Zhou Yanghua went over and sat down and shouted, "Come in!"

The door was pushed open, Xiong Chengchao walked in quickly, and said, "Chairman, the box office statistics of the theater chain for last week and a week have been made, you, take a look?"

Wait a minute, there's a second chapter!
