Chapter Seventy-Three: Sensation
Four days after its release, the box office exceeded 20 million, what a concept. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info according to this rhythm, it is easy to break the box office of 100 million. And a movie with a box office of more than 100 million yuan, the influence is not half a star.
It's just that this movie came out, why haven't I heard it before? I haven't seen any reports about this movie. It is certainly not easy to snatch 20 million box office in front of "Wuji" in four days. A group of media outlets who noticed this information hurriedly checked for information about "The Hangover", but the result surprised them even more.
This turned out to be just a low-cost comedy movie, and the main creative lineup is not a big name, just one Xu Zheng is still a little famous. Isn't it funny that such a movie can grab 20 million box office in the mouth of "Wuji", or will the star review go wrong?
Some media feel that this matter is a bit unreliable, and feel that they will hold off for a while and wait until the situation is clarified. And some media think this is a good news, and they have been reporting on "Wuji", and they are tired of writing it themselves, let alone the people who watch it. It's also a good idea to swap objects.
In short, after this issue of "Film Weekly", "The Hangover" began to appear in the reports of some mainstream media. It's not much, but it doesn't cost money. And the influence of the mainstream media is not just talk.
These media invariably focused their reports on the box office of "The Hangover", and the title was similar, what "box office dark horse, the counterattack road of small-budget comedy", "20 million in four days, the first film under "Wuji", "Accidental, low-cost comedy makes 20 times more profit in four days"...... No matter how the media reports it, Gu Wenwu has to thank them, because this is also a disguised promotion for "The Hangover".
Media coverage and online publicity go hand in hand, and the benefits to The Hangover are indescribable. After two days over the weekend, Monday's box office unexpectedly dropped to a certain extent, but the results were still satisfactory, reaching 5.25 million in one day. But from Tuesday, the box office began to go all the way up, and by Thursday, the box office had reached nearly seven million. This is already the highest single-day box office since the release of "The Hangover". And in the two days of the weekend, the box office reached eight or nine million, and the figure of more than 17 million was obtained in two days.
Because the movie reported on the front page of this issue is no longer "Wuji", but has become "The Hangover". "Wu Ji" won the weekly box office champion for a month, and finally gave way in the fifth week, losing to "The Hangover" with a box office gap of 1.2 million.
To be reasonable, if it weren't for the fact that "Wu Ji" has been released for a full month, according to the regulations, although the screening time can be extended, the film scheduling rate must be adjusted. Affected by the film scheduling rate, "Wuji" lost to "The Hangover".
It can be said that losing to "The Hangover" in "Wuji" is only because of the problem of film scheduling. This is the general opinion of industry insiders. But people who don't understand don't think so. As a weekly magazine published by the Star Review Club, the influence of "Film Weekly" is the entire Great Xia.
And this weekly newspaper will only feature the front page of the previous week's No. 1 box office movie on the front page. "Wuji" has been in the market for four consecutive weeks, and there are four issues of "Film Weekly" on the front page of "Wuji", from the lineup, content, artistic value to behind-the-scenes footage, a whole page, four consecutive issues, the person who wrote the article scratched his scalp, and only wrote four issues. And like the previous "Hero", it won the box office championship for five consecutive weeks, and even the scandals of several main creators were used in the end.
And this time, the introductory movie on the front page became "The Hangover". An all-round coverage of "The Hangover", and in an instant, the popularity of "The Hangover" expanded by more than one level.
A certain flutter community. As one of the largest communities in Daxia, the community has always been the focus of the water army. But this time, there is no need for a water army, and the spontaneous discussion of netizens has already stirred up the topic of "The Hangover".
"I said that "The Hangover" is better than "Wuji", and sure enough, it surpassed "Wuji" in the second week."
"Upstairs, I also watched "The Hangover", which is much better than "Wuji".
"I haven't watched this movie yet, is it really that good?"
"Here's the trailer link, see for yourself." This is a man of action.
"I can only say that with the lineup of "The Hangover", it is a miracle to be able to win "Wuji", which shows that the quality of "Wuji" is not very good."
"That's right, Chen Kaige also said that no one will be able to understand "Wuji" within five years, whoever likes to watch it."
......
As the saying goes, dog bites people are not news, people bite dogs are news. It is not surprising which movie "Wu Ji" beats. Because of your investment, your lineup is put there, and it's normal to win. But if another movie of "Wu Ji" is defeated, it will be big news. Everyone loves to watch the plot of the ** silk counterattack and the explosion of the weak, and now such a plot has really happened, how can it not cause heated discussions and cause a sensation?
Pearl City, a training room. Tang Wei had just finished a physical training class, and she was taking a break from reading the newspaper.
"What are you looking at, Tang Da Beauty?" A handsome boy walked over and asked.
"Movie Weekly." Tang Wei raised the newspaper in her hand and replied.
"Why do you laugh so much when you read a newspaper?" The man said strangely.
"Is there one?" Only then did Tang Wei realize that the corners of her mouth had risen by a large arc at some point.
"Well, I'm really happy because of this movie, I'm the assistant director." Tang Wei handed the newspaper in her hand to the man, got up and walked out of the training room, took a breath, and called someone by the way.
"What movie?" The man flipped through the newspaper in his hand, but he didn't find the movie Tang Wei said. He didn't realize that the movie Tang Wei said was on the front page, and it was a page article introduction.
In the center of Chengshi, Sichuan Province, Huang Bo is attending a large-scale business event. Thanks to the horror sales of "Story", Huang Bo has become a second-tier star in the limelight, and after signing with Wanda Records, the company has also arranged a lot of commercial activities for him to increase exposure.
After attending the event, Huang Bo was unexpectedly stopped by reporters. Huang Bo naturally would not refuse.
"Mr. Huang Bo, the movie "The Hangover" starring you starred in defeated "Wuji" and won the weekly box office championship last week, do you have any ideas?"
"Now there are remarks that "Wuji" is far inferior to "The Hangover", what do you think?"
"I heard that Gu Wenwu, the director of "The Hangover", is also the lyricist of "Story", is this true?"
"What do you think of "Boundless" and how does it compare to "The Hangover"?"
......
The reporters asked. But Huang Bo only distilled one effective message, that is, "The Hangover" beat "Wu Ji" to win the box office title last week. He was originally irritable due to frequent business activities, and he instantly smiled.
