"I'm in Ningbo, and our Times Theater here also has a box office steal, this is the "Kung Fu" I bought, but I got the ticket for "No Thieves in the World"!"

"I went to Dongguan Dadi Cinema to watch "Kung Fu", and what I got was the box office of "No Thieves in the World". Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ｂｉｑUｇE。 info The little steel cannon is so shameless that he actually stole the box office of the star lord and resolutely resisted it!"

"I watched it in Qingdao Xingmei, and I got a movie ticket for "No Thieves in the World"!"

With the box office of "No Thieves in the World" and "Kung Fu" being poked out, Stephen Chow's post bar was topped with posts showing box office. Netizens also responded, taking photos and uploading the handwritten box office they bought, as well as the tickets for "No Thieves in the World".

05 years of high-pixel camera phones have not yet been born, and uploading movie tickets to the Internet is not as convenient as ten years later, but Stephen Chow has a lot of fans, and in just a few hours, dozens of netizens uploaded photos. These photos come from different regions, different theaters, and they all bought "Kung Fu", but they got either handwritten tickets or tickets for "No Thieves in the World".

Immediately afterwards, the evidence of "No Thieves in the World" stealing the box office was forwarded in large quantities, from Xinlang's film industry to NetEase's Xiangjiang Manufacturing, from Cat Pounce to the end of the world, whether it is a professional forum or a public forum, you can see posts exposing "No Thieves in the World" stealing the box office of "Kung Fu".

The whole online world is scolded!

Hua Yi felt the pressure and issued a scathing public statement in the newspaper Xinjingbao.

"The film "No Thieves in the World" is jointly produced by Huayi, Media Asia Films, Forbidden City Pictures and Yingyi Entertainment, and the film was officially released on December 9, and has been well received and supported by the audience and the media after its release.

Recently, our company regretted to see a false video circulating on the Internet about the attack on the movie "No Thieves in the World", some people with ulterior motives took advantage of this hype, which not only brought a significant adverse impact on the reputation of the investors, but also fooled the general public, seriously disrupted the Chinese film market, and caused an extremely bad impact on the Chinese film market. As film investors, we have a responsibility to restore the true face of events. To this end, the investors jointly make the following solemn statement:

1. The investor will thoroughly investigate the incident and will take all legal means to investigate the legal responsibility of the relevant responsible person.

2. According to the progress of the investigation, the investor will, when necessary, request the relevant administrative and judicial organs to intervene in the investigation and severely punish the perpetrators of the incident.

3. The investor, who will promptly announce the progress and results of the investigation of the incident, will be released to the public in a timely manner to set the record straight.

4. At the same time, we hope and welcome all media and the general public to provide us with investigation clues so as to assist us in restoring the truth as soon as possible.

It is hereby declared!"

After this statement was issued, not only did it not alleviate the doubts of netizens, but it caused greater anger among the audience, and the entire Internet was scolded, and some radical netizens even shouted the slogans of "boycott Huayi" and "boycott Feng Xiaogang".

Huayi's official website was quickly attacked by angry netizens, and the entire homepage of the website was replaced with a picture of a thief stealing something. In addition to the Internet, almost all of Zhongyi's phones in reality have been blown up, and they don't dare to answer at all, and they are full of swearing words when they are connected.

Not long after Huayi's statement was reported, similar videos broke out on the Internet one after another, these videos were filmed in different cities and different theaters, but the content was unexpectedly consistent, all of which were tickets for "Kung Fu" to "No Thieves in the World".

A video can be said to be accidental, it is a temporary worker's operation error, but so many videos are released at the same time, what reason is there to find?

Naturally, the media will not be idle, and began to do special topics on stealing box office, and interviewed many film and television practitioners to conduct in-depth exploration of the phenomenon of stealing box office.

The entertainment edition of "Yangcheng Evening News" reported with large photos: "According to industry insiders, box office theft incidents are not uncommon, because the interests of the audience have not been affected, and the film party has no sufficient evidence to defend their rights, so, as an unspoken rule, box office theft has been secretly carried out under the surface." But this time, "No Thieves in the World" and "Kung Fu" are both movies with great influence during the Chinese New Year, which has made the topic of stealing the box office lifted, and it is time for this topic to be seriously discussed. ”

Zhou Liming, a well-known film critic, commented in the newspaper: "In fact, whether it is for the film itself, or for the entire film market and all filmmakers, if we want to develop for a long time and be proud of the rivers and lakes, honesty is still the first priority! On the contrary, we should work the quality of the movie, the schedule arrangement, and the dividend system, so as to avoid the phenomenon of stealing the box office. ”

In an interview with the media, Zhang Weiping of the new picture also talked about the problem of stealing the box office: "When I was "Hero", I found that the scrutineers standing in the cinema at that time were all scrutineers made by the distribution company itself, and these people did not change for more than a year, and they mingled with the people in the cinema every day, and they were so familiar with it that they were a mess, can this still be supervised? After work, the brothers went to drink, and when they came back after drinking, as soon as the scrutineer signed, it was the form that showed me? Ten shows were released, two were released for me, and all eight were gone! I estimate that "Hero" was released was stolen forty or fifty million at the box office. As soon as I saw that this was not going to work, when this year's "Ambush on All Sides" came, I would send my own scrutineers! This industry is very chaotic, and there should be some rules!"

Although Zhang Weiping's new picture is a small company, there are no signed actors, and the director is only Zhang Yimou, but the influence of Zhang Yimou's three words in the Chinese film industry and fans is unparalleled, and even Han Shanping has to give face.

People in the domestic film and television industry will almost respectfully call the third master when they see Han Sanping, only Zhang Weiping dares not to give Han Sanping a face, saying that he is a mountain carving.

When Zhang Weiping came out, all the media were stunned, they didn't expect that even Zhang Weiping would stand up.

Breaking news, definitely breaking news!

Immediately afterwards, He Ping, the director of "Heroes of Heaven and Earth", wrote on his blog: "People from the national film and television industry gathered together for a meeting. Everyone is solemn. A male director summed up his creative experience and boasted of the box office, saying that his main theme film actually made money. At that time, I wanted to throw the teacup over very much: Sun Tzu, your main theme box office is obtained by stealing millions of box office from Lao Tzu's movie!"

Zhang Ran, as the initiator, must not be a watcher, and talked about his views in an interview with "Beijing Entertainment News": "I have also encountered the matter of stealing the box office, and I believe that our domestic directors have encountered it." The entire industry hurt by stealing the box office, Chen Peisi Everyone knows that he has made many good comedies before. But he doesn't make movies now, why? Because he was sad because he was stolen from the box office. Many directors' films could have been profitable, but because of a large number of box office thefts, they ended up in a state of loss. As soon as the investors see that the film has lost money, they will not invest again, and the careers of many directors have been ended in this way! I have said that nothing will work, and I suggest that the Film Bureau should set up a box office supervision company to use the identity of a third party to supervise the behavior of the film company and the theater in the market, and punish the theaters that steal the box office!"

Soon after, many directors, including Chen Kaige, Li Shaohong, Tian Zhuangzhuang, and Lu Chuan, also came out one after another. They hate stealing the box office incomparably, but they are forced to stand up and speak, and now that someone has come out to provoke the head, then they have no worries.

These people are well-known and have a certain weight in the circle, and they came out to speak out and pushed the whole incident to the top, and even CCTV made a special program and invited relevant experts to discuss.

This is getting bigger and bigger!

In the conference room of the Film Bureau, Tong Gang picked up the teacup and took a sip of tea, and then glanced coldly at the Wang Zhonglei brothers: "You two are really capable, now there is no one in the whole country who does not know your Wang brothers!"

Wang Zhonglei smiled and said: "Tong Bureau, someone is deliberately manipulating us and trying to make us stink!"

Tong Gang sneered: "Deliberately manipulating you? If you don't steal other people's box office, can people make you stink?"

Wang Zhongjun said bitterly: "Tong Bureau, it's not that we want to steal, it's that our share is low, and the theater chain takes the initiative to move it to us, and this board can't all hit us!"

Now Huayi has reached the point where everyone shouts and beats it, and its reputation is seriously damaged. This matter must be ended quickly, and if it doesn't end, Hua Yi may be finished. But the matter has reached such an extent that Huayi has no way to solve this matter, and can only rely on the strength of the General Bureau.

Tong Gang waved his hand and said impatiently: "Don't come with me like this, the share of "Aviator" is also low, why didn't you move it to them? I don't want to talk nonsense, this matter ends here, and there can be no more upgrades." ”

Wang Zhonglei was overjoyed in his heart, and he asked if he wanted this sentence, "What if Colombia continues to bite us?"

Tong Gang took a sip of tea and said unhurriedly: "This is in China, they will be obedient!" He changed his voice and said: "But it's definitely not right to steal other people's box office, since this matter has already broken out, it should be returned to others!"

"Got it, Tong Bureau!" Wang Zhaojun and Wang Zhonglei glanced at each other and secretly breathed a sigh of relief, this matter is over.

The next day, Tong Gang said in an interview with the media: "Although Chinese films have achieved remarkable results, problems have also arisen. This year, the Film Bureau will make great efforts to regulate the market order. It is necessary to strictly monitor the market of cinemas and theaters, and build a unified, standardized, open and transparent box office statistics platform as soon as possible. At the same time, it is necessary to promote the establishment of a more timely, transparent and accurate market data release mechanism. ”

After the media interviewed Tong Gang, the report about stealing the box office died down. All the media stopped paying attention to the matter, and turned their attention to the Golden Globe journey of "The Aviator" and "Ambush".

Zhang Ran looked at the newspaper in his hand and sighed slightly, stealing the box office is too deep, most of it is a theater behavior, but there are also government departments that require it. For example, in "The Battle of the Hundred Regiments", seven ministries and commissions issued orders requiring each theater to complete as many tasks as possible. The audience for the main theme movie is small, and the theater can't complete the task, so they can only steal it. How can we investigate? Who dares to investigate? If we check it, the board will hit the seven ministries and commissions. So this can only be done.

Of course, Zhang Ran didn't feel that what he was doing was useless, at least this matter was broken six years earlier, so that people knew about the existence of stealing the box office. When the audience walks into the cinema to support their idols and finds that the movie starring the idol has been stolen from the box office, they will stand up and expose it. At least it can curb the theft of the box office to a certain extent!

Stealing the box office cannot be solved in the short term, but Zhang Ran believes that the cancer of the film industry will be eradicated sooner or later when the film industry develops to a certain stage!

At this time, the airport boarding announcement sounded: "Passengers to Los Angeles, please pay attention, your flight CA988 will take off soon, and passengers who have not yet boarded the plane should board from Gate 24 immediately." ”

Zhang Ran stuffed the newspaper into the trash, stood up and said, "Daughter-in-law, it's time to board the plane!"

Zhang Jingchu followed Zhang Ran's side and walked quickly into the boarding gate.

Today is January 15th, and tomorrow the 62nd Golden Globe Awards will officially kick off. (To be continued.) )
