Chapter 70 The shock brought by the cat's eye movie

"The End of the World" was reversed by the box office of "Super Warriors", and the current daily box office results are powerless to fight back by this Hollywood blockbuster, and they are defeated step by step!

Everyone remembered that someone had said before that there are also two blockbusters in the Chinese film industry with a production cost of more than 100 million yuan this year, and they will shoulder the heavy responsibility of blocking the box office of Hollywood movies in the United States at that time. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info

But now "The End of the World" is dying before leaving the school, and everyone who pays attention to this movie is like a slap in the face, disappointed.

Even, some well-known film personalities began to jump out of the media and scarf, and analyzed the various failures of "The End of the World" as an afterthought.

This is the comment of these well-known people, and no one takes it to heart, the matter has come to this extent, and it is only now out of the aftermath, and it is useless at all.

Thinking about it now, they were all confused by the superficial victory on the first day of "The End of the World" at the beginning, after all, this movie is definitely a Golden Dragon Award-level lineup anyway, not to mention the popularity, everyone in China knows it, and on the day of the movie's premiere, there will naturally be countless fans who come to pay for tickets to enjoy.

But after the premiere, if the box office wants to continue to be full of stamina, it is a matter of word-of-mouth.

Regarding the reputation of the movie "The End of the World", all the people in the film industry couldn't help but sigh.

It's a good art film, but it's not a good film, or it's not a movie made for the general public.

For two days in a row, "The End of the World" was in the market during the Spring Festival, and in the face of the offensive of "Super Police", it was a complete defeat, and it was beaten without the power to fight back.

In less than five days after its release, the box office of "The End of the World" can reach 30 million, which cannot be compared with the box office results of "Super Cop" breaking 100 million in five days!

And with the influence of word-of-mouth divergence, the box office of "The End of the World" will get lower and lower, and this gap will also get bigger and bigger.

Lu Enzhong, the boss of Tianxia Pictures, no longer has the spring breeze on the day of the premiere, and now he is crazy and wants to use various ways to bring the company's blockbuster with a production cost of more than 100 million yuan back to life, but what makes him feel extremely desperate is that despite his efforts, the box office of "The End of the World" not only did not improve, but fell more rapidly.

The box office result of only 30 million was only five days after the premiere, and Lu Enzhong had already been secretly happy before, but this is a complete failure for a blockbuster film with a production cost of more than 100 million yuan and wants to make money during the Spring Festival.

What makes Lu Enzhong feel most panicked is that from the current situation, it has become an extremely luxurious thing to recover the production cost of this film through the box office.

In this way, it is definitely a major blow to Tianxia Pictures.

Although it is not enough to shake the foundation of Tianxia Film Company, it is already a big loss of vitality.

100 million funds, this is not cash that anyone can easily come up with!

Now Lu Enzhong first has to solve how to reduce losses and return more funds.

However, just as Lu Enzhong was racking his brains to avoid losing too much of the movie "The End of the World", a news that shocked everyone in the entertainment industry suddenly came out from Oriental DreamWorks, Time.com, Meituan.com, and Donghai Cinemas.

Buy tickets online and reserve your seats!

Self-service ticket pick-up!

"You're still queuing at the counter to buy tickets? Either too rich or too out! ”

"What does it mean to go to the cinema counter and buy a ticket? long queues; The number of performances you want to see is all sold out or you can't choose a good seat; There is no pomp and circumstance at the right time slot, so you can only wander around and wait for more than an hour...... Physically and psychologically, this is an exertion. ”

"It's much more convenient to buy tickets online through Meituan and Time.com, and it's easy to get to the theater at the time, and the self-service ticket machine can issue tickets in three minutes, and the seats have already been selected, and the price is cheap. If you still insist on queuing up at the counter to buy tickets, either you are too rich to care about the ticket price, or it means that you are an out-of-the-box person who is about to be abandoned by the times. ”

..

All of a sudden, an advertisement promoting the function of online ticket purchase and reservation appeared on major portals and many media, in technical terms, this is carpet advertising bombardment!

In just one day, the online ticketing and reservation system of Meituan and Time.com instantly spread throughout China and was known by countless people.

This system is called Cat's Eye!

Open Maoyan, there is currently only one movie on it that can be purchased online to choose a seat, this movie is called "The Girl We Chased Together in Those Years".

Xiao Huang is a young man who pursues trends, and he usually accompanies his girlfriend to go shopping, eat and watch movies.

Especially near the end of the year, he wants to accompany his girlfriend and have a happy New Year.

It's good to go shopping and eat, although the flow of people at the end of the year is very large, but if you encounter a restaurant that needs to queue, you can't wait to change to a restaurant, which is also more convenient.

But buying a ticket to watch a movie at the end of the year is a very painful thing for Xiao Huang.

After all, he hasn't taken annual leave yet, and basically if he goes to the movies with his girlfriend, he can watch them as he goes, and buy tickets to enter.

If it's okay in normal times, you basically don't need to queue up to buy tickets, unless it's a blockbuster movie, movie tickets will be sought-after, and you need to queue up.

But this time is the end of the year!

Xiao Huang has to go to work again during the day, and after dinner with his girlfriend at night, he wants to go to the movies, and when he goes to the cinema, he almost didn't scare him to death, and the queue to buy movie tickets is simply a few miles away, if he wants to buy tickets to watch a movie, he has to queue for at least nearly half an hour, and he can't guarantee to choose the seat he wants and the movie he wants to watch.

But he couldn't skip work, so he went to buy movie tickets in advance during the day.

Today, after inadvertently seeing the advertisement of the Maoyan ticketing system jointly launched by Meituan and Time.com on the Internet, Xiao Huang was immediately moved and downloaded the Maoyan app with his mobile phone.

In fact, he didn't know that if he updated the apps of Meituan and Time.com, he could also choose seats online.

When he clicked on the Maoyan app, he found that there was no movie in the column of the movies being released inside.

Curious, Xiao Huang clicked on the upcoming movie again, and a movie "The Girl We Chased Together in Those Years" suddenly appeared in it, he still knows this movie, after all, Lin Feng's popularity among young people is not blown!

This movie is the official premiere on the first day of the Lunar New Year! And it was directed and acted by Lin Feng, in Xiao Huang's plan, he was still trying to take his girlfriend to watch this movie during the Chinese New Year.

Romance movies are a couple's favorite!

When he saw the two small words "Buy Tickets" that appeared under the movie "Those Years" on his mobile phone, he couldn't help but click in, 'Donghai Cinema (Yingbin South Road Store)', and continue to order, 'February 12th show'!

Below is a list of movie playing times, Xiao Huang thought about it in his heart, and clicked on the option of 'seat selection and ticket purchase' after the time period is 13:50.

Xiao Huang saw the screen that came out after clicking on the option of 'seat selection and ticket purchase', and he was suddenly a little excited.

Optional, selected, sold, couple seats, four icons, and below the icons is a schematic diagram made according to the seats of the real screening room, and the small squares in it represent the seats in the real screening room.

It's so advanced!

Oh, or the function of this software, it's really too Nima.

Xiao Huang, who saw this function for the first time, was excited and excited, holding his mobile phone and looking at the seat selection screen inside.

However, he saw that in a large blank seat inside, the two squares representing the seats with the best location had turned red, and they looked extremely dazzling in a large white square.

As soon as he thought of this, Xiao Huang immediately couldn't help it, his finger clicked down on the screen, he chose two seats with better geographical locations, submitted the order, and another interface popped up, damn, he hasn't registered yet.

Suddenly, he saw a line of small print on it, Meituan and Time.com members can log in directly, and then he suddenly realized that these three companies must be the same boss.

Immediately, Xiao Huang used his Meituan account and password to log in to the purchase interface.

Paid 18 yuan, received a text message, very smooth, in the past six months, he has used Meituan to buy many times, this process is naturally very familiar to him.

What makes him happiest is that after he bought the ticket, this Maoyan software popped up a self-service ticket collection prompt for him, which means that all members who purchase tickets through Maoyan online seat selection can go directly to the movie hall to find a machine to collect tickets by themselves, and there is no need to queue up to the front desk to verify and then pick up tickets.

Xiao Huang read this prompt carefully and carefully, and felt extremely looking forward to it, today is almost a week away from the New Year, and this movie will be released on the first day of the New Year, he will need to wait at least a week to experience this function.

He is very much looking forward to this!

At this moment, the same process is happening all over China, just like Xiao Huang, curious, downloading software, or directly selecting and paying for seats through Meituan and Time.com, and getting verification codes and self-service ticket pick-up prompts.

Online seat selection and ticket purchase, no need to queue up to get tickets by themselves, when these two functions appeared in front of all netizens, almost blinded everyone's eyes.

Whether you like to watch movies or not, or whether you like Lin Feng's movies or not, as long as anyone with a little curiosity can't help but download the software Maoyan and then experience it.

As soon as they experienced it, many people couldn't help but pay 18 yuan, and bought tickets for the movie "The Girl We Chased Together in Those Years" online for seat selection.

The white squares representing seats in the mobile phone app turned red at a rapid rate, and by 11 p.m., most of the mobile phone seat diagrams for all the sessions of "Those Years" starting at 10:30 on February 12 had turned red.

Even, in some places, the seats in the prime time of Donghai Cinema have all turned red, that is, the movie tickets for this show have been sold out.

By the next day, after Oriental DreamWorks announced the pre-sale box office of the first day of "Those Years", everyone was shocked.

18 million!

When Oriental DreamWorks announced the first-day pre-sale box office revenue of "Those Years", a movie directed and acted by Lin Feng, everyone in the entertainment industry was stunned by this number, with an incredible look on their faces!

Is there any reason for this Nima?

"The End of the World", which is regarded as the pillar of the Hollywood blockbuster, only had a box office of around 20 million on the day of its premiere, and "Those Years", a low-budget love movie, how can it be compared with "The End of the World" at the box office on the first day?

You must know that "The End of the World" is a Golden Dragon Award-level cast, and the director is also a famous director who has won the Golden Dragon Award.

And what is there in "Those Years"?

Except for Lin Feng, a newcomer who is still popular, the female lead Chen Yiran is only a little popular by relying on a talent show, and the other actors are basically passers-by A and passer-by B in the entertainment industry, and no one has heard of them at all.

With the cast alone, "The End of the World" can throw out a few streets from "Those Years".

And now the box office of "Those Years" on the first day is about to catch up with the Golden Dragon Award-level lineup of "The End of the World", is there any reason for this? And this is still Nima's pre-sale, the movie "Those Years" has not been released at all, and it is still a week before the movie can be seen in theaters.

That is, a low-budget romance movie that will be released in 7 days has now reached 18 million at the first-day advance box office.

This fact really makes people in the entertainment industry feel incredible.

How can it be? How so?

Don't say that outsiders feel unbelievable, even Lin Feng himself feels that this first-day pre-sale box office is too beyond his expectations, too unimaginable.

Originally, Lin Feng expected that through pre-sale, it was estimated that the box office on the first day should be around 10 million, but he didn't expect that now there are more than 8 million, it seems that the consumption power of the Chinese people in this world is really much stronger than in the previous life.

And, most importantly, in this world, there is no mobile phone software on the market with the same functions as Maoyan.

After all, in the previous life, Maoyan, Guevara and other movie software, it was only after 2011 that this online seat selection function was available, after all, the agreement that needed to be negotiated was too time-consuming and energy-consuming.

If it weren't for the fact that Lin Feng is now the largest shareholder of Donghai Cinema Line, and since this period of time, he has successively acquired the shares of Cinema Line, and he already has about 65% of the shares of Donghai Cinema Line in his hands, and it is absolutely impossible for the function of online seat selection and ticket purchase to be introduced to the market so quickly.

There are so many aspects involved.

But even so, Lin Feng was very surprised that the first-day pre-sale box office reached the figure of 1800, he touched his nose, this can be regarded as a small surprise!

At this time, his mobile phone rang suddenly, and he picked up the phone to see that it was Mo Shangde calling.

"Mr. Lin, now many cinemas across the country have called us and asked if our Maoyan online seat selection and ticketing system can also cooperate with their cinemas?" As soon as the phone was connected, Mosand's excited and anxious voice came.

Obviously, at this moment, Mo Shangde is both excited and busy, yesterday at the beginning of the all-round promotion of Maoyan movie software, he received several calls to inquire about the details of cooperation, especially today when Oriental DreamWorks announced the first day of the pre-sale box office of "Those Years", today his phone was busy all of a sudden, and there was no time to stop at all.

Hearing Mo Shangde's request, Lin Feng thought about it seriously for a while, made a decision and said: "Cooperation can be cooperated, but you tell them that within a week, the function of online seat selection and ticket purchase can only be opened for the movie "Those Years"!" ”

Originally, Lin Feng wanted to say that the online seat selection and ticket purchase function could only be opened for "Those Years" within half a month, but when the words came to his lips, he thought about it and changed it to within a week.

Because once an agreement is reached with other theaters and cinemas, online seat selection and ticket purchase can only be opened to "Those Years" within half a month, and not to other released movies, the consequences and public opinion pressure brought by this are too great.

Does Donghai Cinema only show Lin Feng's movies during all time periods? Apparently impossible!

But why is Maoyan Movie now only Lin Feng's movies able to choose seats and buy tickets online?

Needless to say, the meaning of this is very clear to everyone.

Mo Shangde also knows very well that Lin Feng, as the behind-the-scenes boss of Oriental DreamWorks, Meituan.com, Time.com, and Maoyan Film, naturally wants to maximize profits, and definitely wants to make his movies a box office hit, and use the privileges in his hands to seek benefits for his films, which is a normal thing.

But if he is the current person in charge of Maoyan Movie, Mo Shangde doesn't want to see this software serve Lin Feng alone, if that happens, he is threatened by Maoyan Movie, there will inevitably be a second Maoyan Movie software.

No one wants to be in danger of being choked at any moment.

"Well, okay!" Mo Shangde is an understanding person, and without saying a word, he obeyed Lin Feng's request.

Lin Feng also heard the faint loss in Mo Shangde's words, he naturally knew that this kind of practice would hurt the other party's enthusiasm, but there was no way to do it.

He has spent so much effort and laid out for so long, whether it is a group buying website or a time network, it is all for the emergence of Maoyan Movie, and the funds he has invested in these three companies in the past six months are definitely calculated in hundreds of millions.

Can't it, Lin Feng spent so much money and energy to make wedding dresses for others, right?

However, he also knows that this kind of thing can't last long, and eating alone alone is the most hated, and it is very likely that it will be attacked by other people, and then the loss of both will outweigh the losses.

"You just say it's going to take a week of back-end technical data updates as an excuse." Lin Feng thought about it and found a reason, otherwise when the time came, in the face of other people's doubts, Mo Shangde's side would definitely be in a hurry.

Lin Feng believes that it is enough to eat alone for a week, as long as his second movie can achieve good results during this Spring Festival, this is very important to his future plans, and there is no room for any mistakes.

With Lin Feng's opinion, Mosand's next work has a focus.

The first to start cooperating with Maoyan Films are cinemas that have not joined the cinema chain in various parts of China, these cinemas are basically based on interests first, and now they can reach an agreement with Maoyan Films, which is naturally beneficial and harmless, as for only in this week, only one movie "Those Years" can have the function of online seat selection and ticket purchase, and other films can only be realized by waiting for a week of technical rectification.

For the statement of Maoyan Movie, those studios didn't take it to heart at all. It's only a week, and they can afford to wait.

As soon as these studios and Maoyan Movies reached an agreement, they followed up with Oriental DreamWorks and these studios signing the release schedule of "Those Years", which was basically the same as that of Donghai Cinemas.

Maybe no one cares about the two studios that haven't joined the theater chain, but what about these cinemas across the country?

With the addition of these studios, the pre-sale ticket office of "Those Years" on February 12 has changed!

It's up!

When Oriental DreamWorks, Maoyan Films, and Private Cinemas reached a tripartite agreement, fans in some cities in China found that the names of other cinemas in the city immediately appeared under the movie "Those Years" by Maoyan Software.

Fans clicked on the reservation interface of these newly joined Maoyan movie camp theaters, and when they saw the white seats on them representing the seats that had not yet been booked, they immediately became excited and pressed their fingers.

Because when Maoyan Movie, Meituan.com, and Time.com can book seats and buy tickets online, this novel online ticketing experience mode has attracted the curiosity of countless young people, so it has caused a frenzy of crazy grabbing.

Otherwise, it would not have set a pre-sale box office of 18 million, which appeared in front of everyone for the first time, and the two novel functions of online ticket reservation and self-service ticket collection accounted for a large part of the reason.

After all, no one has seen the movie "The Girl We Chased Together in Those Years" before, although through a still wonderful trailer and two good original movie music, it has attracted many fans to pay attention to the information of this movie.

But it's not enough for fans to willingly pay for tickets for this movie, but as soon as the two fresh online e-commerce functions of online ticket reservation and self-service ticket collection come out, it will be different!

It was once said that today's world is a world of networks!

This includes e-commerce, and when Meituan and Time.com jointly launched Maoyan Movie, a system dedicated to online reservation and ticket purchase, as well as viewing various movie information, it immediately attracted the attention of countless young people.

The vast majority of young people nowadays are following the trend, for fear that others will say that they are dirty, and now that there is such a new thing coming out, how can they not come to experience it?

18 dollars for a movie ticket?

It's not expensive at all, and don't queue up, you can go directly to the studio hall to get tickets by yourself, and preempt others to book a satisfactory seat, if all this will be realized, these 18 yuan is definitely worth it.

Through the group buying habit on Meituan in the past six months, countless netizens have cultivated the habit of paying for consumption through the mobile end.

Therefore, there is an exaggerated box office result of 18 million at the pre-sale box office of Lin Feng's movie on the first day.

It can be said that it is because of these two novel online consumption and offline self-service experience models that suddenly appeared in front of the public that the box office results that surprised everyone a long time ago.

Now as soon as private cinemas join the circle of Maoyan Films, all private cinemas have made room for the screening of the movie "Those Years".

Just one day later, the first-day advance box office data of "Those Years" was refreshed again, reaching a staggering 21 million box office!

This is a pre-sale ticket office! And it is already a box office counted by fans who have paid real money, even if no one comes to see the movie "Those Years" at that time, it can't change the fact that the movie has a box office of 21 million on the first day.

Within one day, there was an additional 3 million box office, which is basically the box office contributed by those private cinemas after being incorporated into the Maoyan film system, and as more private cinemas join, the first-day pre-sale box office will definitely grow further!

Although there are still four days to go before the Spring Festival, which is the most important thing for Chinese people, at this moment, it is more lively than the New Year for people in the Chinese film industry.

The box office war during the Spring Festival in recent days has dazzled everyone.

Whether it is "The End of the World", which has a domestic investment of more than 100 million, or "Super Warriors" in Hollywood, it has attracted the attention of countless Chinese people.

But for Chinese filmmakers, the Spring Festival schedule a year ago is indeed an extremely humiliating time period.

"The End of the World" gathered many superstars in the Chinese entertainment industry, coupled with the investment of Tianxia Film Company at any cost, this created such a blockbuster that amazed countless people and won the expectation and support of countless people.

However, no one thought that this blockbuster, which had condensed the expectations of countless filmmakers, would be reversed by an ordinary Hollywood commercial blockbuster "Super Warriors"!

Although Hollywood's "Super Cop" also has a production cost of more than 100 million, in the minds of Chinese people, it cannot be compared with the domestic blockbuster "The End of the World".

You must know that the Chinese superstars who participated in the blockbuster "The End of the World" are all well-known superstar-level artists in China, coupled with the ubiquitous advertising bombardment before, this blockbuster produced by Tianxia Film Company, from the moment it was launched, was regarded as the vanguard of blocking the invasion of Hollywood commercial blockbusters into China.

Even in the minds of many people, they didn't think that any Hollywood blockbuster could beat "The End of the World", after all, this blockbuster, whether it is a director or an actor, represents the top production level in the Chinese film industry.

But no one thought that when these two films were released on the same day, they would have two completely different endings.

"The End of the World" opened high and went low, except for the box office on the first day because of the hardcore fans who bought it, and the box office performance beat "Super Men", but at the beginning of the second day, this blockbuster that embodies the expectations of countless filmmakers, because of the extremely poor reputation of fans after watching it, the box office performance has declined like a straight line, and it is not as good as day by day.

Up to now, the cumulative box office of "The End of the World" filmed by Tianxia Pictures has only exceeded 50 million, while the cumulative box office of Hollywood's "Super Men" has already exceeded 100 million, and now it is infinitely close to 150 million amazing box office results.

This kind of ending was something that no one in the entertainment industry expected before!

A movie with high hopes has achieved such a big gap in box office results, which makes the hearts of all Chinese filmmakers full of a speechless bitterness and embarrassment.

However, at this moment, when the Chinese film industry was in the shadow of the Hollywood blockbuster "Super Men", the movie "The Girl We Chased Together in Those Years" directed and acted by Lin Feng of Oriental DreamWorks was born, and it achieved a pre-sale box office of 18 million through online sales with updated functions!

This achievement not only made everyone in the Chinese entertainment industry, but also the producers of Hollywood's "Super Men" stunned, and all of them were frightened by the pre-sale box office results of Lin Feng's movie.

You must know that this is a pre-sale box office, not a box office result after the film's release.

It's unbelievable that a movie that hasn't started screening yet has achieved first-day box office results that are so close to the blockbusters "The End of the World" and "Super Cop" just by pre-selling movie tickets online!

What's going on in this world? A small-budget love movie with a production cost of only about 20 million and has not officially started to be screened on the screen, just through the pre-sale of movie tickets, has achieved a first-day box office of 18 million?

It's shocking and incredible!

Because in their hearts, no matter whether the movie "Those Years" is a small-budget production or a popular theme such as a love movie, no matter what, anyway, at this moment, people in the Chinese film industry have turned their attention to "Those Years", and look forward to this movie continuing to create amazing miracles in the future.

Not why, because this is a pure Chinese domestic movie.

The unbearable use of "The End of the World" was something that no one had expected before, and in everyone's hearts, this was simply impossible.

But now this blockbuster, which has gathered many actors and actresses with an investment cost of more than 100 million, is so vulnerable in front of Hollywood blockbusters.

This makes the media and celebrities who have already released big words earlier think that domestic films will win!

Therefore, the birth of "Those Years" made everyone stunned and made many people feel uncomfortable, but more of it was a sigh of relief, at least the Chinese movies have not all been defeated, and there is still a movie that can compete with Hollywood blockbusters.

And the most remarkable thing is that this movie has not yet been released, and it has achieved such impressive results only through the so-called pre-sale of movie tickets.

And what about after the release?

Will the box office result still be 18 million? You must know that after all, the vast majority of fans who buy tickets through online e-commerce are young people, audiences aged 18-28.

And what about the audience over 28 years old?

Once the time comes, when these audiences who did not buy tickets online through the Internet also pour into the cinema, will the box office still be 18 million?

In this regard, both the media and people in the film industry are full of infinite expectations.

It's no wonder that they are like this, and now the Hollywood blockbuster "Super Cop" has crushed all domestic films in the same schedule in the Huaxia Film Market with its absolute strength and unparalleled box office, and has killed in the Huaxia Film Market, and no one can stop the attack and seizure of the city by this movie.

This is what Chinese filmmakers never want to see, under the overall situation, no matter how shallow Lin Feng's qualifications are, his movies are still based on campus love, and they will not be criticized by anyone or any media at this moment.

In short, at this moment, Lin Feng is the lifesaver for Chinese filmmakers, and it is their last fig leaf.

In fact, the outside world's opinion of the Chinese film industry is much more serious than the news reported by the media!

In less than a week, the Hollywood blockbuster "Super Men" has amassed a box office score of nearly 150 million in the Chinese film market, which is like a slap in the face for all Chinese filmmakers.

was knocked down by others, and the film market in China seemed to be a stripped woman in front of others, without any resistance, and let Hollywood movies do whatever they wanted.

This kind of embarrassment is something that other industries can't feel, and only local Chinese filmmakers can have such a personal experience.

Therefore, although even "Those Years" is not the movie that all filmmakers and media have been optimistic about before, even because Lin Feng is young and vigorous, and has made many achievements in the past year that make many people feel envious and jealous, many people feel very uncomfortable with this young man.

But at this moment, they all had to shift the topic to "The Girl We Chased Together in Those Years", a movie directed and acted by Lin Feng to hide the embarrassment in their hearts!

At the same time, not only the movie "The Girl We Chased Together in Those Years" has received the attention of everyone in the Chinese media and film industry, but Maoyan Film Software has also attracted the attention of countless people at home and abroad.

Maoyan Movie is not so much a software as a function, a function that integrates movie information and online reservation and ticket purchase.

When the Maoyan movie came out, now both Meituan and Time.com's mobile apps have updated this function, which means that now both Meituan and Time.com can transfer to Maoyan Movie through these two platforms and directly book seats and buy tickets online.

In the eyes of these filmmakers at home and abroad, the value of Maoyan movies is much higher than that of "The Girl We Chased Together in Those Years" and Lin Feng!

In their eyes, the reason why Lin Feng, a self-directed and self-starred movie, was able to achieve an astonishing box office result of 18 million on the first day through online pre-sale and ticket purchase, is entirely due to the Maoyan film system, as for the quality of this movie, no one cares at all.

Therefore, whether it is Huaxia or abroad, while they are surprised by the amazing results of the movie "The Girl We Chased Together in Those Years", they also contacted Mo Shangde, the person in charge of Maoyan Film and Meituan.com, and eagerly wanted to reach an agreement with Mo Shangde, so that they could put their own movies on Maoyan Movies, and they could stimulate the box office growth of their own movies by booking tickets online and self-service ticket collection.

In the face of this endless demand for cooperation, Mo Shangde used procrastination one by one, and did not immediately let each family's movies be launched into Maoyan Movies immediately.

However, Mosand's reason is very good, this is not something that your film company can decide in one word, and you still need to reach an agreement with various theater companies.

Without the cooperation and support of cinema companies, it would be impossible to realize the two major functions of online reservation and ticket purchase, self-service ticket collection, so when Mo Shangde said this well-reasoned request, those film companies immediately began to take the initiative to help Meituan and Maoyan Film communicate with various theater companies.

In fact, as long as Lin Feng and Mo Shangde want to, this kind of cooperation can be reached soon.

After all, the rapid development of Meituan in the past six months has had a good foundation for cooperation with cinema companies across the country.

After this method was handed over to Mo Shangde by Lin Feng, it had already been used badly.

It's just that because of Lin Feng's explanation, Mo Shangde had to use various reasons to postpone this cooperation for a week to create an opportunity for "Those Years" to be ahead of others.

Now it seems that Lin Feng's plan has been completely successful.

Originally, when he heard Mo Shangde's reason in the film company, he calmed the desire in his heart a little, but after those private studios were also included in the Maoyan film system, the box office of Lin Feng's "The Girl We Chased Together in Those Years" increased by 3 million on the first day.

It has reached an astonishing first-day pre-sale box office result of 21 million.

This number blinds all filmmakers at home and abroad.

The hearts of those film companies, which had already calmed down, boiled again after hearing the news, and they couldn't hold it back, and began to contact Mo Shangde one after another, urging them to reach a cooperation agreement as soon as possible.

However, in "The Girl We Chased Together in Those Years", which pre-sold movie tickets through the Maoyan film system and achieved such impressive box office results, it instantly attracted the attention of all the media.

At this time, no one in the media, or in the industry, said cool things about Oriental DreamWorks and Lin Feng at this time, or said that Lin Feng and Oriental DreamWorks were grandstanding at this time.

Even some well-known filmmakers and some institutions at the government level have greeted the major media, taking care of the newcomers of Chinese films, and giving the newcomers a blue sky to grow freely.

Because, at this moment, the movie "Those Years" filmed by Lin Feng is like the last fig leaf, covering up the embarrassment of all filmmakers in China!

Especially after announcing that the first-day pre-sale box office of "Those Years" was 18 million, it seemed to inject a stimulant into the Chinese film circle, making the media and some filmmakers excited as if they had been beaten with chicken blood!

In addition, this time, all cinema chains in China also began to take the initiative to contact Mo Shangde to discuss matters related to the in-depth cooperation of Maoyan Films.

It is true that Huaxia's domestic cinema theaters have reached a cooperation in selling movie tickets at a low price because of their cooperation with Maoyan System, which has lowered the profit of each movie ticket, but this is definitely a profitable deal for those theater companies, because the attendance rate of their screening halls has increased, and it is not an ordinary increase.

Although it is now the hot time of the Spring Festival, their movie tickets are not sold at all, but what about the off-season?

In normal times, no cinema can be full, and no cinema can guarantee that the attendance rate is 100%, but now through the previous cooperation with Meituan, various cinema companies have tasted the sweetness of this cooperation.

So now there is not only the stimulation of the first-day pre-sale box office of the movie "The Girl We Chased Together in Those Years", but also the urging of partner film companies, and theater companies have also begun to contact Maoyan Films, wanting to cooperate in depth.

In the face of this situation, the unified answer given by Mosand is that it takes at least a week to do background data processing, no matter how fast it is, this time cannot be shortened, and it cannot be shortened.

The outside world didn't know the operation process of Maoyan Films, and when they heard Mosand's words, they believed everything he said, so they didn't urge anymore, and were ready to wait for another week.

It's just that there is one exception to this, he doesn't believe everything Moshand said at all, and at this time he can't wait for Maoyan Films to start launching their company's movies immediately, because he and his film company really can't afford to lose, and they can't afford to wait.

This person is Lu Enzhong, the owner of Tianxia Film Company!

"Mr. Mo, just tell me the truth, is the boss behind Maoyan Movie Lin Feng?" Lu Enzhong was in Mo Shangde's office at this time, pestering Mo Shangde to stare at him with an unending look.

There's no way, the box office results of "The End of the World" are really miserable, and it doesn't match his identity as a blockbuster with an investment of more than 100 million yuan in the Golden Dragon Award-level lineup before!

And this situation, the longer it is released, the more serious it is.

Now many theater companies have called Lu Enzhong to adjust the schedule of "The End of the World", and this adjustment must be to reduce the number of screenings of "The End of the World", and the sacrifice is naturally the interests of Lu Enzhong and Tianxia Pictures.

For cinema companies, the world is big and the interests are the greatest, no matter what movie, even if it is the supporting role in it, it is also the winner of the Golden Dragon Award, as long as it can't bring them box office and benefits, they will adjust the film schedule and give more screens to those movies that need it.

Lu Enzhong has already heard about those theater companies that want to reduce the screen of "The End of the World", and now they have contacted Oriental DreamWorks and want to release the movie shot by Oriental DreamWorks instead, which is naturally "The Girl We Chased Together in Those Years".

Therefore, he can't wait for a moment now, and it just so happens that he can guess in his heart that Lin Feng and this cat's eye movie must have an unknown relationship, otherwise how could it be that there is only one movie made by Lin Feng on the cat's eye movie, and there are no films from other film companies?

"I'm sorry, Mr. Lu, I have no comment on this matter!" Moshand refused to answer Lu's question.

When Lu Enzhong saw Mo Shangde's appearance, he knew that he couldn't ask anything more, but he already had the details in his heart, confessed to Mo Shangde, and turned to leave.

He is now going to go to Oriental DreamWorks to find that young man - Lin Feng! No matter what he does, he must find Lin Feng, and he must let "The End of the World" get to Maoyan as soon as possible, the longer it drags on, the more unfavorable it will be to Tianxia Pictures.

Oriental DreamWorks.

Lin Feng faced Lu Enzhong's visit, and really couldn't find a reason to refuse, and although Oriental DreamWorks has made many amazing achievements in the entertainment industry, it is still shallow compared with a company like Tianxia Pictures with a history of many years.

Now the boss of Tianxia Film Company has come to Lin Feng in person, if he refuses again, he will really be young and vigorous.

"Hello, Mr. Lu." Lin Feng politely entertained Lu Enzhong in the office, and personally made a cup of tea for this bigwig who has been rampant in the film industry for many years.

Lu Enzhong is tall, he knows at a glance that he is a big man in the north, with thick eyebrows and big eyes, and an unusually straightforward personality, after he saw Lin Feng, his face was stunned, and he sighed: "Mr. Lin, you are really young." ”

Lin Feng smiled slightly when he heard this, he didn't take this to heart, his conversation and demeanor revealed a maturity that did not match his age, and said with a smile: "It's over, Mr. Lu." ”

The two of them each sat down on the sofa, Lu Enzhong took a sip of the teacup, his expression was solemn, his eyes suddenly showed a determined look, obviously he seemed to have made some kind of decision in his heart, I saw him say to Lin Feng seriously: "Mr. Lin, I am a more direct person, if I have something to say, I will say it directly, I am like asking you to do me a favor now, can I make "The End of the World" appear on that cat's eye as soon as possible!" ”

Before Lu Enzhong came, Lin Feng had already received a call from Mo Shangde, so he was already prepared for Lu Enzhong to ask him for help now, and even before Lu Enzhong came, he already had an answer in his heart.

Lin Feng didn't think about it, put the teacup in his hand on the coffee table, smiled faintly, and said: "Yes, but it will take a day and a half, today and tomorrow, there will definitely be online ticket sales for "The End of the World" on the eyes of the next cat, but Mr. Lu, this requires the cooperation of the theater company." ”

When Lin Feng finished speaking, Lu Enzhong was stunned for a moment and didn't react, on the way here, he had already thought of various methods and conditions to negotiate with Lin Feng, but he really didn't expect that the young man in front of him would agree to his request so happily.

"What about your conditions?" Lu Enzhong looked up at Lin Feng and said.

Lu Enzhong has been in the entertainment industry for so many years, naturally he is not an ordinary person, there is no love for no reason in this world, and there is no hate for no reason.

Now that Lin Feng agreed to his request very happily, he naturally knew that the other party must have the conditions not to say it.

At this moment, his eyes were fixed, and he looked at the young man in front of him with a sharp gaze, as the CEO of a large company in the entertainment industry, he had a terrifying aura on his body.

Lin Feng calmly raised his head to meet Lu Enzhong's gaze, he was not affected by the other party at all, his expression was flat, he flicked the teacup with his fingers, made a crisp sound, and slowly said: "Mr. Lu, if you want your company's movies to be listed in Maoyan as soon as possible, you must reach an agreement with the theater company, you should know this very well, right?" ”

Hearing Lin Feng's words, Lu Enzhong nodded in approval.

For Maoyan, a thing that shocked everyone's attention in the entertainment industry as soon as it appeared, he has spent a lot of energy researching in the past two days, in fact, this software has no technical content at all, but the creativity is absolutely first-class.

The future of Maoyan will definitely be a great tool for movie ticket sales, and the most important of them is naturally to reach agreements with various theater companies and cinemas, otherwise software and creativity alone will never work.

The reason why the pre-sale box office of the movie made by this young man in front of him suddenly has such amazing results is inseparable from the full cooperation of Donghai Cinema Line.

And Lin Feng is the largest shareholder of Donghai Cinema Line.

That's all there is to it.

Lin Feng saw Lu Enzhong nodding, so he continued: "If "The End of the World" wants to be listed in Maoyan, it must first reach an agreement with the theater company, but I believe that these will definitely not be a problem for Mr. Lu, so, can I make a small request, in the process of coordination between you and these theater companies, can you let these theater companies arrange a schedule for my movie?" ”

Although the words were light, they fell on Lu Enzhong's ears like thunder, and when he finally knew the true thoughts of the young man in front of him, his heart was full of surprise and sighs.

He looked at the calm young face in front of him, how could he not fuse this face with an old fox who was thoughtful and took ten steps at a time.

Today's young people are amazing! Lu Enzhong sighed secretly.

However, when he sighed, his brows furrowed, and he began to consider the request that Lin Feng said.

The significance of the Spring Festival schedule for film screening, in the entertainment industry, no one is unclear, it can be said that it is a battleground for soldiers, all famous film companies in the Chinese film circle, unless there is an accident, there is no film company that does not want to make a profit in this unique Chinese film schedule.

In China, the most important movie schedule is during the Spring Festival, and at other times, even if it is a peak season, it is not as good as the Spring Festival schedule.

Lu Enzhong can be sure that the cinema company must have already done a good job of scheduling films, and now it is impossible to insert a movie into it.

However, after all, he has been in the film industry for many years, whether it is connections or knowledge, it is not comparable to the boss of ordinary film and television companies.

Thinking of this, Lu Enzhong was stunned, and his mind couldn't help but suddenly think of what the other party said when he met Mo Shangde just now!

"I'm sorry, Mr. Lu, no matter what, no matter what movie, at least after the seventh day of the new year, you can log in to Maoyan."

He kept thinking about this sentence in his heart, but at this moment, everything was clear to him, everything was clear.

What technology, what data, what backstage, what time is needed, those are all excuses, Moshande said that the purpose of these excuses is only one, that is, to delay the time for other movies to log in to Maoyan, the purpose is to let the movies made by the young man in front of him monopolize Maoyan's resources during this time.

Take advantage of this blank time when no other movies log in to Maoyan, and share the fruits of these two functions through the online reservation function and self-service ticket collection.

Now Lu Enzhong completely understands everything about this, but he still has a doubt in his heart, this kind of procrastination design is completely dragging the cat's eye to expand at a high speed, after all, this kind of thing only needs to be done for a while, and others can figure out the key to it as long as they think about it.

In case someone else uses this to talk about things, it will be very unfavorable to Maoyan at that time.

However, now Lu Enzhong can only press the doubt in his heart, and after some careful consideration, he nodded and said: "Yes, I can ask the theater company to arrange a schedule for you through the relationship, but as for how many films you can get for this movie, I can't guarantee it." ”

What Lu Enzhong said was indeed his true thoughts.

You know, now is the Spring Festival schedule, which cinema company is not full? It can be said that he can guarantee Lin Feng's movies and be able to log in to those theater companies, which is already the biggest guarantee for Lin Feng.

As for how many film schedules can be obtained, it depends on the box office of the movie made by Lin Feng itself, as well as the public relations here.

"Okay, then I'll leave everything to Mr. Lu, and I wish us a happy cooperation." Lin Feng didn't say anything, he stood up very quickly and stretched out his right hand.

In fact, in Lin Feng's plan, he didn't ask too much, as long as "The Girl We Chased Together in Those Years" can get those theaters, it is enough, for all theater companies, as long as the released movies can bring them enough benefits, there is no schedule that cannot be adjusted, and even more, as long as there are enough benefits, there is no movie that cannot be offline.

Before, because of the shallow background of Oriental DreamWorks, even if Liu Xinsheng contacted other theater companies, he did not get a schedule, even if some theaters were willing to release Lin Feng's movies, but the harsh sharing requirements were really unacceptable.

This is also the reason why Lin Feng himself and Oriental DreamWorks have no qualifications in the entertainment industry.

In this important schedule, it is very difficult for a newcomer, a film and television company established less than a year ago, to compete for the schedule with other giant film companies, well-known directors, and movies starring Tianwang Actress.

After all, whether it is those giant companies or the queen of the king, they have already proven their strength.

And Lin Feng and Oriental DreamWorks have just stepped into the film industry, even if Lin Feng's previous film "My Sassy Girlfriend", which has created a lot of box office records, is not enough for the theater company to treasure him as a young man.

Now that he has reached an agreement with Lin Feng, Lu Enzhong is ready to leave, and he uses this old face to coordinate with the cinema company that he has cooperated with for many years.

However, when he was about to go out, Lu Enzhong turned around and suddenly asked Lin Feng: "Mr. Lin, aren't you worried about the consequences of this delaying strategy of Maoyan in the future?" ”

When Lin Feng heard Lu Enzhong's words, he was stunned, but in an instant he understood what the other party meant, stopped, looked at Lu Enzhong and said, "Because I am also a filmmaker." ”

Lu Enzhong never thought that from the young man in front of him, he would say such a reason.

Filmmaker?

However, when he thought that the other party was still a student of Yenching Film Academy, this was an orthodox professional background, speaking of which, Lin Feng was really a filmmaker with pure blood.

As a filmmaker, it is understandable that movies are more important than other things, although Lin Feng's approach is likely to bring some harm to Maoyan, but hearing Lin Feng's answer, Lu Enzhong can also accept it.

Lu Enzhong pursed his lips and wanted to ask another question, but after thinking about it, he said goodbye to Lin Feng and turned to leave.

In fact, what he wants to ask is, since as a filmmaker, why can't other movies be listed on Maoyan as soon as possible?

This question is very acute, and Lu Enzhong thinks about it, everyone is selfish, if he is in Lin Feng's position, he will definitely only do more ruthless than Lin Feng.

After sending Lu Enzhong away, Lin Feng returned to the office and began to arrange the schedule that Lu Enzhong would coordinate for Oriental DreamWorks next.

This matter is still for Liu Xinsheng to deal with, and in Lin Feng's heart, he has already made a decision.

For two consecutive days, with the login of retail cinemas from all over the world to Maoyan, the first-day pre-sale box office of "The Girl We Chased Together in Those Years" only rose by more than 1 million, reaching 23 million.

It can be seen that with the saturation of seats in the Tokai Cinema Line and the freshness of online reservation and ticket purchase, the growth rate of advance ticket sales has also become slow.

Just when the outside world thought that the movie Oriental DreamWorks was the so-called first-day pre-sale box office, the film industry suddenly revealed another big news.

When there are still three days before the Chinese New Year's Eve, "The End of the World", which was previously reported by countless people, officially logged in Maoyan, and all fans can officially book tickets online through Maoyan.

On February 8, all fan users who installed Maoyan, Meituan, and Time.com mobile apps received a push notification.

"The End of the World" is officially listed on Maoyan and can now be booked online."

When fans received this push, many curious people immediately clicked on the notification, switched to Maoyan or Meituan, and found that the movies that can now be purchased online for ticket booking have added a "The End of the World" in addition to "The Girlfriend We Chased Together in Those Years".

The push was pushed at 4 o'clock in the afternoon, and now through the Maoyan system, movie tickets can be purchased at 18 o'clock, but because of the comments of "The End of the World" on the Internet, many fans did not buy tickets immediately.

It's really that the reputation of this movie on the Internet is too extreme.

The good ones are too good, and the bad ones are scolded too harshly, but no matter whether they are good or bad, they all have one thing in common, that is, this movie is really not something that ordinary people can understand.

This Chinese New Year, going to see a movie that you can't understand, doesn't seem very good?

Therefore, Lu Enzhong, who has been waiting for the final statistics, when he got February 8th and 9th from Mo Shangde's side, the box office generated from Maoyan was only more than 6 million, and Lin Feng's "The Girl We Chased Together in Those Years" was far from it, and his eyes were full of disappointment.

However, he recovered quickly, no matter what, through Maoyan, at least the company can lose a little less because of this movie.

Although Maoyan did not let "The End of the World" reverse the general trend, it also contributed to the box office and reduced a lot of losses, so Lin Feng's love, he Lu Enzhong must appreciate it.

Fortunately, he did not disappoint Lin Feng, a total of two theater companies looked at his face and arranged a schedule for "The Girl We Chased Together in Those Years".

In this way, with the addition of Donghai Cinemas, there are already three cinema companies that have released Lin Feng's movie, and the standard treatment is at least not lower than that of ordinary blockbuster movies.

As for the movies that can be released across the board, they are either famous directors, movies with the joining of the emperor's superstars, or blockbusters made with huge sums of money, obviously neither Oriental DreamWorks nor Lin Feng have this treatment.

However, Lin Feng believes that it won't be long before he will have this treatment, and in this world, no one will want to get along with money.

When he learned that Lu Enzhong had asked the two theater companies to agree to adjust the schedule for "Those Years", he immediately asked Liu Xinsheng to negotiate a cooperation agreement.

Yanjing Film League, Jiangnan Times, it is these two cinema companies that agreed to arrange film scheduling for Lin Feng.

Because of Lu Enzhong's help, Liu Xinsheng quickly reached an agreement with the two theater companies in the past to screen "The Girl We Chased Together in Those Years", but there were very few films scheduled every day.

And there is only one week of film scheduling, and as for the next film schedule, it depends on how the box office of the film is, so that they can decide whether to increase or decrease the film schedule.

By the next day, countless users who had Meituan, Maoyan, and Time.com installed on their mobile phones received another push.

"Congratulations to "The Girl We Chased Together in Those Years" for officially joining the two theater companies of Yanjing Film Alliance and Jiangnan Times, and welcome fans to choose seats online."

Some fans who didn't choose a satisfactory seat on the first day of the Lunar New Year clicked Maoyan to see if there was a seat that satisfied them.

Now that there is such a good opportunity, they certainly won't give it up.

However, fans found that there were a few more local studios under the movie "Those Years", but there were not many shows, and the time was still a bit tricky.

16:00,18:00,20:00!

There are only three sessions on the first day of the Lunar New Year, and if this time period is placed on the usual holidays, it is a good time period.

But on the first day of the Lunar New Year, it was not a very good session.

There's no way, who said that this movie was temporarily inserted into the schedules of the two theater companies of Yanjing Film Alliance and Jiangnan Times!

But even so, there are still many people who have bought tickets for this movie, because now this movie is very popular on the Internet, especially the promotional video made by Oriental DreamWorks and Popcorn.com, many of them have seen it, so thinking about the Chinese New Year, watching a love movie is also a good choice.

On February 10, after the box office data sold through Maoyan came out, it attracted the attention of countless people.

Today, the box office data of "The End of the World" is 7 million, of which the box office data generated through Maoyan is 3 million, which is half the same as in February!

It can be seen that this movie is indeed not welcomed by fans.

And the movie "The Girl We Chased Together in Those Years", after having the schedule arranged by the two theater companies, the first-day pre-sale box office rose again, and it suddenly increased by 4 million, and the first-day pre-sale box office data has reached 27 million!

This data blinded everyone in the entertainment industry.

At the same time, Lin Feng immediately arranged for Mo Shangde to accept online seat selection for movie tickets on February 13, the second day of the Lunar New Year.
