Chapter 499: Small Production, Big Shock
In order not to affect the viewing experience of the audience, the speech and testimonials were very brief, and then the video began to play.
At first, the cinema was a little noisy, but with the appearance of the dragon mark, the surroundings gradually quieted down.
Everyone watched the slowly unfolding images on the screen and were drawn to the story.
Although some people are not very accustomed to the accented dialect, they still keep reading.
Zhao Qian leaned back in his chair and watched his first film as a screenwriter appear on the big screen, feeling somewhat proud and excited, but also a little apprehensive.
Even if it is him, he can't guarantee that the movie he makes will definitely be popular.
Sometimes it's very mysterious, it doesn't mean that if the script is okay, it will definitely be able to produce results, and the butterfly effect has always existed.
Fortunately, there are audience members laughing from time to time, not one or two, but a group.
This made Zhao Qian feel a lot more relieved.
Even the leaders and some senior industry people next to him laughed heartily when they saw the joy.
Journalists are looking at it more carefully and more carefully, which will become news material, and they are also attracted to this movie.
The online publicity was exaggerated before, in fact, everyone watched it for the first time, some were curious, and some had doubts, but as the plot unfolded, they all abandoned these problems and began to enjoy the joy brought by the movie.
The audience of the entire movie theater had all eyes on the screen, and no one was playing with their phones as usual.
After 100 minutes, the film ended, and the audience gave a standing ovation.
Zhao Qian knew that he had succeeded.
Wang Huan was so excited that he came over from the side and hugged Zhao Qian fiercely, patting him on the shoulder vigorously,
Zhao Qian was caught off guard, and grinned in pain: "Damn, let go, don't you lose face for labor and management?"
There are also reporters taking pictures on the side, if it spreads, I don't know what version it will become, maybe people still think he likes men!
"We succeeded! We succeeded!" Wang Huan was as excited as a second child.
Zhao Qian rolled his eyes: "What's the hurry, it's not too late to wait for the box office to come out on the first day." ”
Barely breathing calmly, Wang Huan shook his head and smiled: "Yes, it's not too late to wait for the box office to come out." ”
The relevant leaders and industry bigwigs have taken positions one after another, and the next time is for the crew to be interviewed.
As a screenwriter and investor, Zhao Qian naturally has to be interviewed by the media.
Although he didn't want to deal with the media, in line with the idea of friendly cooperation, Zhao Qian didn't want to offend these uncrowned kings, in case they scribbled through, he would definitely suffer in the end.
A female reporter who felt strong at first glance asked loudly: "Mr. Zhao, what is your expectation of the box office of "Crazy Stone"?"
Zhao Qian smiled calmly: "Naturally, the more the better, who would be disgusted with more money?"
But the female reporter didn't get the answer she wanted, so she was naturally unwilling and didn't plan to let him go, so she asked decisively: "Some time ago, someone said that the prediction of the 200 million box office of "Crazy Stone" is too much and unrealistic, what do you think about this? Do you still think that 200 million box office is no problem?"
Zhao Qian raised his eyebrows: "Everyone here just finished watching the movie, and everyone knows this question in their hearts." ”
"Mr. Zhao......"
"Mr. Zhao, may I ask ......?"
These guys couldn't wait to put the microphone into Zhao Qian's mouth, but fortunately, Wang Huan solved the siege in time: "Ahem, let's stop embarrassing our big screenwriter, let's ask other people, such as me, I like to be interviewed the most." ”
Only then did the media reporter let Zhao Qian go.
Zhao Qian rolled his eyes silently.
This is also the reason why he doesn't like reporters, emmm, it should be said that he loves and hates, taking the entertainment route, it is indispensable to deal with the media, and it is not possible without them.
The next day, people woke up to find a lot of media scrambling to cover the premiere of "Crazy Stone" last night.
Yangcheng Evening News: "When the laughter of domestic movies is getting less and less, a 21-year-old young man has brought a different experience to domestic fans. Compared with those big productions that cost hundreds of millions of dollars at every turn, "Crazy Stone" may be able to give some new inspiration to domestic films......"
Netease Entertainment: "When the audience ended last night, the applause was thunderous, and many people knew that this film would definitely be popular." "Crazy Stone" can be said to be appreciated by both the elegant and the vulgar, and for ordinary audiences, a movie can bring a pleasant viewing experience and stimulate resonance, which is enough......"
Daguang News: "A group of young people have injected new strength into the domestic film industry, proving that not only big productions have a way out......"
In short, overnight, many media praised the just-released "Crazy Stone".
Many netizens who haven't gone to the movies yet are curious, is it really so good-looking?
"It's really good-looking, I swear by the festival, it's super funny!" a lucky viewer who got a ticket to the premiere swore to it.
There are also many people who posted their movie ticket stubs on Weibo, and then posted their feelings after watching them.
"It's really worth watching, at least I laughed after watching it. ”
"As a comedy movie, it is relatively successful, I give four stars, love letters plus half stars, a total of four and a half stars. ”
"It is recommended not to drink Coke during the viewing process, otherwise it will be bad to spray it at someone else's house, don't ask me how I know, I'm washing my daughter-in-law's clothes now, and I fell asleep last night when I knelt on my knees......"
“……”
Of course, it is not without its contradictions:
"Funny for the sake of being funny is not worth advocating, and domestic movies will end sooner or later in the long run. ”
"The director and screenwriter are still too young, and it is too early to make commercial films, so they should make more literary films to hone their skills. ”
"It's too early to celebrate, whether it's a masterpiece or not depends on whether it can stand the test of the market. ”
“……”
However, on the morning of the 26th, "Crazy Stone" was counted on the 25th, and the box office on the first day was 21 million.
Zhao Qian could finally breathe a sigh of relief.
Wang Huan laughed on the phone, which can be described as extremely proud.
As soon as the news was revealed, the media instantly changed their tone.
""Crazy Stone" has a box office of 21 million on the first day, a counterattack of low-cost production!"
"The surprise of Christmas, it is not a dream to expect a box office of 200 million!"
""Crazy Stone", a must-have program for couples and families on New Year's Eve!"
"The last entertainment feast at the end of 2017......"
“……”
Not to mention ordinary netizens, even Zhao Qian was speechless.
Damn, can you have some moderation?
Yesterday's Weibo hasn't been deleted.,Now I immediately changed my tone.,I don't know, I thought the editor was fired.。
The person who said before that it was impossible for "Crazy Stone" to have a box office of 100 million, his face is swollen at this time.
At this rate, the box office can break 100 million in less than a week!
It's only the first day, and the box office will continue to rise in the next week, and then the second, third, and fourth weeks will gradually decline.
As long as there are no accidents in the future, the box office of 200 million should be fine.
In this way, this movie is really a counterattack. The cost is only 15 million, and the box office can have 200 million, and the cliff is crazy!
For a while, large and small film and television companies in the industry were envious of Zhao Qian, even if it was a big entertainment company, they did not dare to guarantee that the movies they made would make money, and works that hit the streets abounded.
So many people took the initiative to extend an olive branch to Zhao Qian, or ask for a script, or invite him to join the company.
Zhao Qian politely refused all of them.
What are you kidding, of course he has a script for himself, and besides, he doesn't have a company, he is the boss, and he still needs to join someone else's company to see other people's faces?
Nerve!
