Chapter 128: Strength
What will be the movie that can make the Li case curious? When his wife heard this, she took the newspaper from Li's hand, only glanced at the headline, and said suspiciously: ""The Great Detective, is this a detective film?" ”
"That's right. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info" Li Case nodded.
"What's there to be curious about detective films?" The wife said puzzled. Since her husband is a director, she also knows a little bit about movies, and as far as she knows, detective films don't seem to have many audiences.
"You don't understand this, it's true that detective films have a small audience, but it's not a niche movie like horror movies and plasma movies." Li said.
"What do you mean, why didn't I understand?" The wife was confused.
"That is to say, there are fewer people who like to watch detective films, but this does not mean that other people hate to watch detective films, and films like plasma films and horror films, its audience is more people who prefer this type of movie, and people who do not have this hobby generally do not choose." Li explained patiently.
"Oh, I see." The wife probably understood the meaning of the Li case. But then she asked, "But what does this mean?" ”
"You think, most people haven't seen or rarely watched a detective movie, and now that there is one, it will naturally bring people a sense of freshness, once the quality of this movie is good, it is likely to trigger a trend of detective films, and even the movie that Cheng Daoming recognizes, will it be a bad movie?" Li said.
If you want to make an appropriate analogy, detective films at this time are a bit like zombie movies in Xiangjiang in the eighties and nineties, although there were also movies about zombies at that time, but they were not a climate, and there were few people who liked to watch this genre, but when the movie "Mr. Zombie" came out, it was applauded and popular. In addition to the good quality of the movie itself, it also has a lot to do with the fact that most audiences have not seen this kind of movie before, and they haven't seen it, so they feel fresh, and word of mouth naturally triggered a boom in zombie movies.
In the view of the Li case, perhaps this movie called "The Great Detective" may be the fierce rival of "Lust and Caution".
In fact, there are not a few people who have the same view as the Li case, but most people think that the box office of "The Great Detective" is so good on the first day is just luck. This can be seen from the major media newspapers.
"Luck or strength?"
"The first day of "The Great Detective" is gratifying, and Cheng Daoming may become a box office elixir"
"Seventeen million, the promotion of "The Great Detective" has a miraculous effect"
……
The prime time of July 1st has always been the focus of attention of the media, and this year's four major productions are fighting head-on, and the topics are naturally continuous, and major media are also vying to report relevant information about the National Day file. As soon as the box office came out on the first day, the most eye-catching of the four movies was naturally "The Great Detective". No one would have thought that the least promising of the four films would do so well. So after some self-righteous analysis, there was the above report. They summarized the reasons why "The Great Detective" went to such a box office into three points, one is Cheng Daoming, the second is that the movie was promoted well before its release, and the third is luck.
Many media reports even bluntly said that it was a pure accident that "The Great Detective" could win so many box offices on the first day, and predicted that its box office was about to usher in a Waterloo. Then, they were slapped in the face. Because the box office of "The Great Detective" came out on the second day.
At the box office on the second day, it was still "Lust and Caution" that won the first place, with a total of 24 million in a single day, followed by "Spider-Man 2", which exceeded 20 million at the box office on the same day, followed by "The Great Detective", 19 million. "The Big Event" ranked fourth with a score of 18 million.
At this moment, many media were silent, but there were still most doubts, and no one wanted to be slapped in the face. But if the box office of the next day can be explained by the above reasons, then the box office of the next few days will completely leave these people with nothing to say.
On the third day, the single-day box office of "The Great Detective" exceeded 20 million, ranking third. On the fourth day, 21.7 million, surpassing "Spider-Man 2" to rank second. On the fifth day, 23.1 million, a difference of 1 million from the number one "Lust and Caution". And by the sixth day, 25 million was already almost the same as "Lust and Caution". On the seventh day, 26.7 million successfully surpassed "Lust and Caution" by a slight margin of 300,000 and successfully reached the top.
Incredible, unbelievable, shocking. Why is this happening, why can a rookie director surpass Du Qifeng and surpass the Li case, is Cheng Daoming really so magical? But there is also Liang Chaowei in "Lust and Caution", is there no star in "Big Event". Not to mention the publicity, if you put commercials, I will also advertise, if you are on the show, I will also be on the show, everyone is similar, why are you high at the box office? Isn't it said that detective films are not popular, why are they so high at the box office? What about the box office Waterloo?
The box office trend of "The Great Detective" in the past seven days can't help but think of "The Hangover". I still remember that on the first day of the release of "The Hangover", the box office on the first day was only 3.7 million, and then with the continuous online publicity and word of mouth, this showed a trend of opening low and going high, and the box office soared all the way, and finally won two weekly box office championships and won more than 100 million box office.
But "The Great Detective" won 17 million at the box office on the first day of release, and after that, it made great progress all the way, constantly surpassing the previous movies, and in the end, no movie can surpass it, because it is already the first. Could it be that "The Great Detective" is a high-profile version of "The Hangover", a box office dark horse 2.0? Thinking of this, many people don't even dare to think about it.
Whether you accept it or not, facts are facts. "The Great Detective" has used iron-like data to prove that it does not rely on luck, but on strength. Within a week of its release, the box office has exceeded 100 million, and there is no problem at all surpassing "The Hangover". Some media outlets who were slapped in the face also began to think seriously, why did "The Great Detective" have such good results?
"Mr. Gu, there are twenty-seven more media today, why don't you come to the studio, if this continues, I'm afraid the studio won't be able to work properly." Li Yefeng called again, this was the third time he had called these days. With his ability, he can handle the work of the studio, which is handy. But when it comes to dealing with the media, he really doesn't have much experience.
As the box office of "The Great Detective" continues to rise, there are more and more media outlets that want to interview him. In the past, he was a gang of runners, and it was difficult for media reporters to find him. But now it's different, he opened his own studio, and if he can't find anyone, he goes to his studio. What, if you don't give an interview, then I'll wait in your studio until you agree. The reporter wants to stay in the studio, and Li Yefeng is not easy to deal with, so he can't ask someone to drive them away. The previous ones were all cold treatments, so you can stay if you want, anyway, when the time comes, you will naturally leave, and you can't go without eating or sleeping. However, with the increasing number of reporters, it has affected the normal work of employees, so naturally they can no longer be left alone.
The second update! Anyway, if you have a recommendation vote, just vote for a few, and it's a waste not to vote anyway.
