Chapter 248: Offline Early

Huaying Company has set the schedule of "The End of the World" on November 12, which happens to be Saturday, and if you don't go to work tomorrow, you can go to the cinema at night to enjoy the excitement brought by Hollywood blockbusters. Pen Fun Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info

Due to the controversy in the newspapers, most of the people in the capital knew about it.

The older ones are in the past, and the real ones are the young people, who like new things.

Watching Hollywood blockbusters has undoubtedly become a fashion, and it feels like a lot of face if you can bring your girlfriend to watch it with you.

However, buying tickets has become a problem, especially in Beijing, where there are not many theaters showing and long queues outside the cinemas, which are extremely sought-after, which has given rise to the emergence of ticket sellers.

The ticket seller sold a movie ticket for 15 yuan to 50 yuan, and the supply was still in short supply.

This was not possible before.

Speaking of which, it has a lot to do with the publicity of the news media, the bigger the argument, the more interesting it will arouse the audience, of course, Hollywood blockbusters are attractive in themselves, and everyone wants to see them.

"Brother, can you get the internal tickets? Those ticket sellers are too unreliable. Lin Xiaoling complained.

"What? You film school students are also interested, aren't you engaged in art?" Lin Zixuan teased.

"We look at it with a critical eye, and we don't look at how we know how to be critical. Lin Xiaoling argued.

"Don't make excuses, I don't have a ticket here, anyway, I've seen it, that's all, there's nothing to see, it's not artistic at all, it's not suitable for you to see, why should you go there." Lin Zixuan said with a smile.

"What about you, a professor from our college saw it in advance, and it is said to be quite shocking. Lin Xiaoling didn't believe it.

"I have a ticket here, it's for Sunday night, do you want it?" Mu Shanshan interjected.

"What about you, sister-in-law?" Lin Xiaoling said embarrassedly.

"I don't like to watch this kind of crime-themed films, they are all about fighting and killing, and they are not interesting. Mu Shanshan explained.

"Thank you, sister-in-law. Lin Xiaoling said happily.

The movie ticket in Mu Shanshan's hand was given by someone from China Film Company, and the guest invited by "Cultural Interview" a few days ago was Wang Zhifu, deputy general manager of China Film Company, who was a reformer.

The introduction of Hollywood blockbusters is a hot topic in society, and "Cultural Interview" will naturally not be missed.

Sometimes, when Lin Zixuan sees a certain news and thinks that it has value to be excavated, he will recommend it to Mu Shanshan.

Facts have proved that after the broadcast of "Cultural Interview" produced in this way, it will have a lot of social repercussions, or it just coincides with a certain document to be issued by the state.

This has invisibly increased the weight of "Cultural Interview", which always keeps the pulse of this era.

Colleagues at Huaguo TV knew that Mu Shanshan's father was an official of the Ministry of Culture, but they didn't have any ideas.

"You really don't want to watch it, the film is very good, it's all reviewed, there are no too bloody shots, I'm afraid that children will watch it too." After Lin Xiaoling left, Lin Zixuan asked.

"If you don't go, what am I going to do. Mu Shanshan asked rhetorically.

"Earlier, I didn't want to watch it a second time, no matter how good the film was, it would be uncomfortable to watch too much. Lin Zixuan woke up and said, "Otherwise, let's support domestic movies, there are a few good films tomorrow night, I remember that one is a romance film, and the name is quite literary." ”

In order to snipe "The Outlaw", several film studios came up with their own films.

The quality of these films is very good among domestic films, but most of them are literary films and main theme films.

In this way, on Saturday night, when everyone else was excited to watch Hollywood blockbusters, Lin Zixuan and Mu Shanshan went to a theater in Xicheng District to watch a movie, and the ticket price was six yuan.

Unlike Hollywood blockbusters, which require you to queue up to buy tickets, there aren't many spectators here.

The two walked into the cinema, and the screening room was not even a quarter of the seats, and it seemed empty.

They picked a seat and sat down, waiting for the movie to be shown, and a girl not far away complained that her boyfriend didn't buy a movie ticket for "The Outlaw" so she had to watch a domestic film.

Lin Zixuan and Mu Shanshan glanced at each other and smiled.

When two people come to watch a movie, it doesn't matter what movie they watch, the important thing is that they watch it together, and that's enough.

The movie begins, and the screening room falls silent.

It can be seen that the director of this film has put a lot of effort into it, but it is still a bit old-fashioned, if it might have been popular in the 80s, the current audience will not buy it.

This shows that the system of state-owned film studios is outdated, and the directors are rigid in their thinking, do not learn new things, and cannot keep up with the times.

This is still a problem left over from the era of the planned economy.

Now that Hollywood blockbusters have entered China, they have forced film studios to carry out reforms, forcing film directors and actors to emancipate their minds, otherwise they will be eliminated by the audience.

Halfway through the movie, the audience walked out.

Lin Zixuan and Mu Shanshan saw the end, although the ending was expected, but it was a rare weekend to kill time anyway.

After leaving the cinema, the two went for supper before returning home.

With the release of "The End of the World", it was an eye-opener for Chinese audiences, and it is said that when watching the clip of the collision between the train and the prisoner car, many viewers clung to the chair with their hands and were nervous.

Whether it's the tight storyline or the large number of stunt shots in it, it leaves a deep impression on the audience.

For a time, through word of mouth, the people of the capital rushed to watch this Hollywood blockbuster.

They used to watch third- and fourth-rate foreign movies, bad Western movies imported by China Film Company for a buyout price of 20,000 US dollars, but this time they saw real Hollywood blockbusters.

On Monday, there was a long queue outside the theater, and the movie theater hadn't been bustling in years.

According to incomplete statistics from Huaying Company, on Saturday night and Sunday alone, the box office of "The Outlaw" in Beijing exceeded 700,000.

It is undeniable that there will be more audiences on weekends, but even so, if "The End of the World" is screened for a week, the box office in Beijing alone may exceed 4 million.

The six cities in the country, Shanghai and Huacheng are all economically developed areas, and audiences will be more enthusiastic in the face of Hollywood blockbusters.

After such a rough calculation, the box office of "The Outlaw" may exceed 30 million a week.

This figure even China Film Company did not expect, they thought that it would be good to have a box office of more than 10 million, and they underestimated the strong demand of the people for entertainment life.

After this box office spread, it caused a strong reaction within the film industry.

The difference between Hollywood blockbusters grossing in a day and domestic films in a month is too frustrating.

It was precisely because of their frustration that they strengthened their determination to boycott Hollywood blockbusters.

In the capital, people in the film industry united to demand that "The Outlaw" be immediately withdrawn from theaters and taken offline ahead of schedule. (To be continued.) )
