Chapter 562: The Gap
Kim Young-min didn't even attend the premiere of his company's film a few days ago, but was invited by Li Mo to the premiere of "Strange Her" today, which has a certain purpose.
The most superficial reason, of course, is to prove that he is not stingy because Krystal does not accept his company's films. The deep-seated reason is that he wants to see with his own eyes how good Li Mo is!
That's right, the box office of "My Neighbor is EXO" is estimated to be a cheat.
After consuming the enthusiasm of fans, passers-by are indifferent to this kind of movie that is obviously a benefit of fans, and the attendance rate is declining every day. Even if some fans watch it several times in a row to support, it is a drop in the bucket.
is also a low-budget movie, and Li Mo has a lot of momentum here.
was released across the board, and the premiere had nearly 400 screens across the country, twice as many as "My Neighbor is EXO". Not to mention the star lineup who came to the scene to participate in the premiere, such as Jun Ji-hyun, Lee Min Ho, etc., and even the members of the boy group of other companies who fought to the death with EXO were also arranged by the company to come over to join in the fun and brush their faces, with a strong sense of ridicule.
Who made those EXO guys out of their own hands?
Kim Young-min, a company president-level figure, naturally will not walk the red carpet like those stars. Entering through another passage in a low-key manner, Li Mo's eyes were sharp, and he walked over to greet him.
"I thought you wouldn't come, Lao Jin."
Even if he had a lot of conflicts with Li Mo, he didn't cooperate as happily as he did at the beginning, Jin Yingmin didn't show his face to Li Mo, and said with a smile, "Krystal is also an artist in our company, so it is appropriate to support it." ”
"I'm sure President Kim will be happy to have her on the show."
Kim Young-min smiled lightly and nodded, and excused himself to see an acquaintance. Li Mo knew the meaning when he heard the strings, and did not pester him.
It didn't take long for the guests to take their seats and the movie officially began.
The film tells the story of Wu Moshun, a grandmother in her 70s who has worked hard all her life, who is disliked in society and family, and only his neighbor Old Man Park has a deep love for him; One day, the daughter-in-law had a heart attack because she couldn't stand her bad temper, although the rescue saved her life in time, but after the family discussed, they felt that Wu Moshun would be sent to the nursing home.
The beginning of a bloody Korean drama is Li Mo's specialty.
Before leaving, Wu Moshun remembered that she was too old and didn't know when she would not be able to sleep, so she came to a 'youth photo studio' to take a posthumous photo, but she didn't expect that after the shutter went dark, she was more than fifty years younger and turned back into girlhood. And this photo studio disappeared after she came back to her senses.
Seeing Krystal's corny hairstyle and speechless expression on the screen, the audience chuckled.
Kim Young-min frowned when he saw it, and what he was most dissatisfied with was that Krystal's role now was detrimental to her idol image. Idol is to be young and beautiful, and to give fans the most perfect image at all times.
And being ugly and funny is really not their company's style.
Wu Moshun, who returned to girlhood, changed her name to Wu Douli for herself, and even rekindled her dream of being a singer when she was young. Wu Douli's maverick behavior was welcomed by everyone, and even aroused the admiration of TV directors. But her real identity is a grandmother in her 70s, and there are family bonds. Wu Douli is stuck in a difficult choice, whether to continue to live as Wu Douli or confess to her family.
Krystal's acting skills can be said to have made a great breakthrough, and many viewers were amazed by the dialect and old-fashioned appearance in the film.
Wu Doo-ri moves forward with difficult choices, and discovers in an accident that bleeding will make her old, which deepens her confusion. At this time, Sun Tzu Zhihe urgently needed a large blood transfusion due to a car accident. Wu Douli didn't care about hiding her identity, and directly stood up and asked the doctor to use her blood.
Because of this, Wu Douli turned back into her grandmother Wu Moshun. At this time, in his son's mouth, Wu Moshun knew that the family had already discovered Wu Douli's abnormality, but instead of exposing her, they secretly supported her to pursue her dreams.
In the end, of course, there was a happy ending, and Sun Zi Zhihe was cured and discharged from the hospital. The granddaughter is also the dream of replacing her grandmother and becoming a singer. And the TV director who grandma had a crush on naturally died without a problem, and Li Mo would not spoof the plot no matter how stupid he was.
Just when the audience thought it was over, an easter egg that had not been announced to the public suddenly appeared.
Old man Park, a neighbor who has always been silently good to her, has also become younger, and Lee Min Ho's cameo suddenly blinded everyone's eyes!
Lee Min Ho, who was sitting in the audience, also laughed himself, and the audience's reaction seemed to be unexpectedly good.
Kim Young-min shook his head helplessly, this is where the gap lies. Because of Li Mo's words, some big-name actors are willing to make cameos, even if it's just a scene. On the contrary, the movies that his company is preparing to make, even the big-name actors signed by his own company are not even willing to make cameos. For example, Zhang Dongjian refused to be reluctant to play soy sauce in "My Neighbor is EXO", as if even if he made a cameo, he would be humiliated.
After watching the movie, Kim Young-min left alone. He had to think about something, and the ambition of the silly hat could never be confined to the world of songs.
"Strange Her" grossed 185,237 people on the first day of its premiere, which is not too impressive, but it is also above the passing line. However, after the good reputation of the movie spread outward, the next day was Saturday, and the number of moviegoers instantly exceeded 250,000, and even reached 270,000 on the third day.
In the first three days of the weekend, "Strange Her" received more than 700,000 viewers. The company has cinema companies, and the company has hurriedly stepped up its propaganda offensive.
Krystal and his leading actors also kept running around the country to do publicity work, and in a week, the number of moviegoers approached the 2 million mark. At this time, everyone knows that Li Mo has succeeded again!
And what about EXO, who spoke wildly at the beginning?
Their movie is still struggling to break the 1 million mark, and what's worse is that because the movie attendance rate fell below the warning line after the first week, the theater companies have lowered the film scheduling rate and distributed it to "Strange Her" and other movies instead, and it is estimated that when they break the 1 million movie-going mark, the movie will be drawn.
So EXO has to pay for the original rumors.
Fans of other rival boy bands have come to their official websites to ridicule them for not being able to do their best, and they also said that if the box office of the movie exceeds 3 million, they will hold a free hug event.
Planetary rice naturally wants to help their oppa, and a new round of fan tearing has caused a stir on the Internet.
EXO and a few guys were directly cowardly, and all social accounts were taken over by the company, if they dared to make any trouble, it is estimated that Kim Yingmin would not let them go.
Bian Boxian is so childish, he secretly applied for another account to scold "Strange Her" on the Internet, and even hinted that Krystal was raised by Li Mo, otherwise he wouldn't have gotten female pig's feet.
Who knew that South Korea's black fans were too powerful, and they found out that the ID applied for with a mobile phone account was him Bian Boxian. It's bad this time, Krystal is a senior in the company who debuted earlier than him, and a backlash actually smeared the seniors of the same company because of poor movie results?
