Chapter 111: Reversal
When I woke up, it was already three poles in the morning, and my grandmother had already gotten up to work.
Tang Li and Xue Yiren hurriedly got up from the bed, and after washing, their grandmother had already prepared breakfast.
The two worshiped the New Year and began to have breakfast.
Grandma sat at the table and looked at the two of them with a smile on her face: "What's the matter? Yiyi, did you have fun last night?"
"Uh...... Happy!" Xue Yiren only paused for a moment, then nodded affirmatively. In her eyes, it was full of joy.
"It's good to be happy, it's good to be happy. Grandma's eyes narrowed when she smiled, clearly looking at her granddaughter and grandson-in-law.
Tang Li looked at her appearance, and couldn't help but sigh in his heart, I don't know how this matter should end in the end, I can't keep dragging it out like this, right?
Before noon, the old neighbors came to play mahjong with grandma, and grandma kicked the two of them out of the door.
"I don't have lunch, let's solve it myself. ”
On the first day of the Lunar New Year, there are still very few places to play on the street, and only a few shopping malls have to be browsed, and I find that I can only watch movies.
So, the two watched all the movies in the Spring Festival file in one go, and even "Bald Strong" was not missed. Watching a movie with a group of children with their parents is also a special experience.
During the waiting period, the two once again brushed the major film and television forums.
Now all the Spring Festival movies have been opened, and the comments on the Internet have also been fully rolled out.
The temporary result is that "Angel Space" is leading in terms of ratings and word-of-mouth across the board. The rating of the professional website Broad Bean is 8.3 points, and the scores of the three ticket-buying platforms are all around 9.5 points.
followed by "Flying Aliens", with a score of 7.4 points for broad beans and a score of about 9.1 points on the ticketing platform.
And "The Self-cultivation of Actors" actually collapsed sharply, with broad beans 6.3, and the ticket-buying platform only scored about 8 points. It's a big surprise.
At this time, the post claiming to be an industry insider before the festival was dug up. His ratings of several films are highly consistent with the real situation. It shows that his identity in the industry is not bragging, so all kinds of worship stickers followed hundreds of floors in an instant.
The person who was slapped in the face was subjected to a constant tailgating and heckling. Some have disappeared since then, and some have come out to resist two sentences, but they were soon overwhelmed by the fans of "Angel Space".
In response to word-of-mouth, major theaters quickly adjusted their film schedules, and "Angel Space" doubled from about 15 percent to 30 percent, second only to 35 percent of "Flying Aliens", which performed well at the box office, and "The Self-cultivation of Actors" fell behind on the first day, leaving less than 20 percent.
In the following two days, the word-of-mouth of "Angel Space" continued to ferment, and the number of films continued to grow, and on the third day of the Lunar New Year alone, it jumped to the first place, reaching 38%. More than a third.
The box office has increased simultaneously, and the single-day box office has counterattacked to the first place. The total box office is only 100 million less than "Flying Aliens", and it is expected to be overtaken within three days.
I knew that on the first day, "Angel Space" was nearly 200 million less than the other party.
At this time, even people who have no eyesight can see that "Angel Space" will rely on word-of-mouth to counterattack and become the box office champion of the Spring Festival stalls. The only question is where it will end up, and whether it will really be able to challenge the Chinese box office championship, as some satellite forecasters say.
In an unknown place, the dungeon system is once again at a loss.
"I combined the two movies "Crazy Alien" and "Flying Life" into one, can't I still fight you? Your film is not "The Wandering Earth", and Xue Yiren is not Wu Jing, you don't follow the material at all!"
For it, the situation is almost irreversible. But irreversible must also be reversed, it has no way back at all, and can only do it to the end.
From the next day, public opinion and cyber attacks on Angel Space escalated again.
Since one o'clock in the morning, a large number of one-point negative reviews have suddenly appeared, and the total score has been lowered by 0.2 points to 8.2 points. A one-point film review of "Science Fiction is Not Nonsense" was hit by a huge number of likes and hit the headlines.
And this movie review has also been frantically forwarded by various big Vs, and even some traditional media have reprinted it.
Two days later, a film review that was originally a high-scoring and high-praise review suddenly changed its score to a one-star negative review, but the related likes were still retained, which means that the weight of this bad review has risen significantly, which once again affected the rating of "Angel Space".
Within a few days, the broad bean score dropped from 8.4 points to 8 points, and it seems that there is no sign of stopping the decline.
In the face of this hysterical attack, whether it was Xue Yiren's fans, Tang Li's fans, or passers-by fans who had just become "Angel Space", they launched counterattacks one after another, and an Internet war was very loud for a while. It has become a strange scenery during the Spring Festival.
However, no matter how the battle is fought on the network, the audience is always voting with their feet.
From the fifth day, the total box office of "Angel Space" surpassed "Flying Aliens" and jumped to the first place. The film schedule is close to 50%. Countless people have chosen to watch the movie twice, or even three times or four times. That strange forgetting effect is stimulating everyone's desire to watch the movie repeatedly.
After starting work on the seventh day of junior high school, Tang Li and Xue Yiren rejoined the crew's publicity team and did roadshows all over the country. Everywhere I went, it was almost full, and the response was strong.
According to the general rule, after the seventh day of the Spring Festival, the box office will be cut off and declined, but for "Angel Space", this seems to be just the beginning. Not only did it not decline, but it continued to decline, and after the first ten, the box office accounted for more than 50% of the market, and it can be said that I want to hit ten.
Such an upward trend continued until the twenty-second day, and the single-day box office finally reached an inflection point. It began to gradually fall back. At this time, the total box office has exceeded four billion. It fills the vacancy of the 4 billion box office level of domestic films. On top of this, there is only one phenomenal film of 5.6 billion.
"Why can this be?" the copy system stared at the numbers in front of him and muttered to himself: "Why can your film be more powerful than the box office momentum of the material without the blessing of the state level and the touting of the official media? This is completely unreasonable." What the hell are those viewers watching so many times?"
Then, another significant deviation from the content of the material stimulated its senses once again.
"Angel Space" was released overseas.
The box office of purely domestic films overseas has always been extremely dismal, and only a few have achieved a certain degree of success, and most of them have not even made a splash.
Among them, the most successful is Zhang Dadao's "Assassin". That was more than 20 years ago.
Therefore, when everyone was arguing about "Angel Space", whether it was for one side or another side against, they didn't pay too much attention to its overseas box office. But this time, it seems a little different.
The quality of this film can be regarded as a milestone in domestic science fiction films, but in the eyes of old Hollywood, it is only a new descendant, and it is extremely difficult to resonate with foreign audiences, especially North American audiences. But this film has a strange magic that does not belong to the film itself, which makes anyone who has seen it have a strong desire to watch the film a second time, and at the same time, this feeling will also drive them to Amway for others. The superposition of the two made the North American market, which even the filmmakers themselves did not report much hope, quickly embarked on the track of soaring box office after a low-key start.
The number of art galleries has continued to grow, but the attendance rate has not decreased significantly. After the first week, it actually achieved a magical box office of 15 million dollars.
The copy system was completely shocked: "There is obviously no such paragraph in the material, even "The Wandering Earth" itself only has a few million dollars." Is he going to abandon the material and go it all alone?"
The solo walk continues.
The filmmaker found that the North American market was unexpectedly powerful, so it urgently produced a dubbed version for it to meet the strange habit of North American audiences who don't like to read subtitles, so as to attract more non-Chinese audiences to watch the movie. This change has achieved its goal, with the significant increase in the number of openings, the box office of "Angel Space" in North America has also achieved an incredible continuous reversal, with the box office in the second and third weeks reaching 30 million and 40 million dollars respectively, and in three weeks, there are close to 100 million dollars at the box office.
This not only greatly surpassed the "Assassin" of that year, but also approached the award-winning film "Jade Jiaolong" directed by the Chinese director Ni En, who has an old Hollywood background.
IMDB's data, from 7.8 points at the beginning, to 7.2 points maliciously brushed by domestic black water, and then rushed up to 7.9 points again, looking at the trend, there is a chance to rush to the ranks of excellent films with 8 points.
This unexpected success has made Xue Yiren's supporters begin to look forward to the prospect of "Angel Space" impacting the little golden man. Even Xue Yiren himself couldn't control his desires.
"Cousin, do you think you can rely on this film to complete that task?" she asked timidly.
The task item she said was, of course, the Little Golden Man Award for Best Foreign Language Film.
Tang Li thought about it, but he still didn't dare to put this satellite, after all, his cousin's acting career had just begun, and he wanted to do it in one step, but he was afraid that the steps would be too big and he would pull the egg. In this movie, there are still many deficiencies and lack of money, so that many details can only be clicked to the end, and there is no way to keep improving.
What's more, the positioning of this film is still a commercial film, and commercial films may be able to think about winning a few technical awards, and if you want to think about the best foreign language film, you can't even think about it.
"However, doesn't this film have the consistent political correctness factor in the Little Golden Man awards?"
"Political correctness, you mean ......," Tang Li narrowed his eyes.
Xue Yiren bit her lip and smiled: "I also think so, saying that our film is a big heroine, and I play the role independently, even when I sacrifice in the end, I didn't grind, I didn't talk about love, I didn't need to prove anything to the other party when I felt dead, I was just loyal to my beliefs and choices." It's very much in line with the characteristics of feminism. ”
"Feminism?" Tang Li grinned: "This can also be involved?"
