Chapter 027: The New Film Begins

"Brother Xiao Xiang, what are you doing in a daze, people are greeting you!" Xiao Xiao stretched out his hand and shook it in front of Li Xiang.

"Oh, sorry, distracted. My name is Li Xiang, a graduate student of the directing department, and I can be regarded as your senior brother!" Li Xiang adjusted his state and made a brief self-introduction.

"Hello senior brother!" The four girls greeted Li Xiang together, and Xiaoxiao was still grimacing inside.

"You don't know yet, Brother Xiao Xiang is the director of "Hurricane Rescue"!" "Why is this little kid a little biao, he talks about everything, I don't know if I have to be low-key."

"Wow, I'll just say how come I heard my brother's name so familiar, it turned out to be the director of Hurricane. Da Tiantian's eyes lit up.

Looking at Da Tiantian's hot eyes, Li Xiang felt that this girl might have the idea of cooperating with him. Young lady, don't be impulsive, you and I may not be able to move.

On the morning of September 14, the box office of the second week of "Double Treasure Fighting Demons" was released. Lionsgate can be regarded as generous this time, adding $5 million to the publicity and distribution expenses of "Double Treasure Fighting Demons", relying on the good reputation of the movie, it can be said that the money is really spent on the blade. The second-week results of "Double Treasure Demon Fight" did not disappoint, with a score of 7.61 million US dollars, successfully squeezed into the top ten of the North American weekly box office list, and with a slight advantage of less than 100,000, surpassing "Spy Shadow 3", which has been released for six weeks, ranking fifth. Although September is the box office off-season between the summer and Halloween files, this result is enough to surprise people.

As the director, Jason made a phone call a day to report the box office results of "Double Treasure Fighting Demons" in real time, which made Li Xiang very annoying, this hairy man really has no eyesight. To be honest, Li Xiang was completely unpredictable about the box office results of "Happy Death Day", and he was very surprised that the script could pass at the beginning, is this still your country?

What will be held in 08, the whole world knows, exporting your country's culture, let the world re-understand this ancient and mysterious country, is there anything more comfortable than this? I have to say that the timing of Li Xiang's sycophant is really just right.

Whether at home or abroad, the first task of the theater manager is to make the theater profitable, so if the box office performance of any movie is good, people will naturally increase the scheduling rate of what movie. Of course, the exception is a government-chartered movie like the X series, which is a political task and involves the survival of the theater chain, so it is natural to greatly increase the film schedule. Entering September, the domestic film market began to cool down, and a series of movies that can be released to make money have entered this schedule to gamble.

and "Happy Death Day" chose to be released on the same day, and there is also a movie called "Wind and Snow Wolf Road", which is not clear to others, anyway, Li Xiang has no impression. Looking at it, only the director of "Happy Death Day" is still a little more reliable, if you were a theater manager, how would you choose? Can I choose a dog leash? No, there is no doubt that the first-day film schedule rate of "Happy Death Day" is close to 6%. What's even more exaggerated is the number of theaters screened, in 07, the number of domestic cinemas barely exceeded 1300, and "Happy Death Day" got 1220 theaters screened, accounting for more than ninety percent of the total.

The military training lasted for more than half a month, and the four little girls in their bedroom all tanned a lot. Although I hated the black-faced instructor to death, when the military training ended, it was more sad and reluctant, typical of Stockholm syndrome.

The course did not officially start until Monday, and the school also felt that the military training of these freshmen was more difficult, so there was nothing arranged on Friday, and the students had the first weekend vacation after entering the school. The four people in the dormitory had long wanted to go out for a walk, so the four of them made detailed plans, watching movies in the morning, eating lunch, and shopping in the afternoon. Da Tiantian even crossed her hands on her hips, and said to the other three arrogantly: "Let's go shopping in the afternoon, I'll give you a bag by yourself!" It seems that this habit has been in school since then.

What movie to watch has become the biggest problem, and Xiaoxiao was also discussing with the other three people before remembering that today is the premiere day of Xiao Xiangge's movie. So what else is there to say, there is only one choice - "Happy Death Day". The four of them dressed up as fast as they could, and rushed to the nearest movie theater together.

The real peak of movie-going on Friday is actually in the evening, when people leave work after a busy day and get ready for a good weekend. At this time, watching a movie and relaxing is a very good choice, of course, at present, in China, choosing to watch domestic movies is basically adding to the blockage, and there are not many good films without him. It was already more than ten o'clock when the four of them came to the cinema, and they took a look at the release time of "Happy Death Day", and they were lucky that the most recent one was at 10:30, just at the right time.

The four of them have a clear division of labor, you buy drinks, I buy popcorn, she buys movie tickets, Zheng Wei is responsible for selling cute, eh... Something seems to be wrong. After all, Zheng Wei is the youngest of the four, and the old and young are naturally the ones who are taken care of. The four of them completed all the tasks, and the movie began to check in. The prime position for normal viewing is the position in the theater, that is, row 5678, of course, there are also those who like to sit in the front and the back, personal habits are not mentioned for the time being, the position of four people is the middle four of the sixth row.

At that time, there were no advertisements for movies before the screening, and they were basically trailers for recently released movies. The four of them placed their snacks and drinks and sat down in a comfortable position.

"Wow, director Jiang Wen's "The Sun Also Rises" will be released next week, it's not bad to watch the trailer, let's watch it next week?" Kan Qingzi held his hands and said, if it doesn't count "Looking for a Gun", of course it shouldn't be counted, it's Lu Chuan's play, is it really not counted? Okay, don't dwell on this issue, "The Sun Also Rises" is Jiang Wen's comeback after being banned, and people who have watched "The Devil is Coming" are naturally looking forward to his new work.

"Du Qifeng's "Iron Triangle" has Gu Tian Le, I like him so much!" Zheng Wei's eyes were red.

The four of them chatted and discussed, the trailer was played, and the appearance of the dragon mark meant that the movie officially began.

I don't know what the reason is, the opening of the optical fiber and the opening of the Flying Studio seem to be stuck several times, which makes everyone in the theater think that there is a problem with the movie playback. Fortunately, the introduction of the cast and crew returned to normal, and everyone relaxed and quietly began to watch the movie.
