Chapter 266 The Four Great Cinemas of Regret
"Good evening, viewers in front of the TV, I'm your good friend Melinda, and now you may be curious why I'm here!" A girl wearing heavy makeup appears on the screen of a television set. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info
Although this girl has an average appearance, she has an extremely hot body, and she is the main actress of Los Angeles TV.
"Where I am now is the Forest Cinema, which is a small cinema that does not belong to the four major cinema chains!" Melinda continued.
"But today's protagonist is not this forest cinema, but ......"
Then, Melinda's figure moved, and then, in the camera, appeared in a long procession, which was hundreds of meters long, from the Forest Cinema to the avenue of the street.
In order to maintain order at the scene, the police station even dispatched a large number of [police] officers!
"You may wonder what happened to this movie theater and why are there so many people queuing? And this scene has never appeared in the cinemas of the four major cinema chains! Let's interview the people here! Melinda said.
She then walked over to the nearest young man.
"Hello handsome guy, can I interview you?" Melinda asked with a smile.
When the man saw Melinda, instead of panicking, he said excitedly.
"Wow, Melinda, I'm a fan of yours!"
"Oh, is it? Nice to meet you, my fan! Melinda smiled and said, "Now, can I ask you a few questions?" ”
"Yes, you ask!" The man said immediately.
"What are you doing here?"
"Of course I'm here to watch a movie, but this movie is too popular, I've been waiting here for half an hour, but the team hasn't advanced much, it's really damn it!" The man complained.
"So what is it about movies that is so attractive? Can you wait so long to buy a movie ticket? ”
"Of course it's Inception, you don't know, I'm itched by those comments on the Internet, and my good friend also recommended me to watch this movie, so I came! Damn, those guys abandoned me, came an hour before me, and must have been watching a movie right now! The young man complained, "Not enough brothers!" ”
"Okay, thank you for your time!" Melinda ended her interview with the young man.
Subsequently, Melinda found a young couple.
"Hello, can I interview you guys?" Melinda asked with a smile.
"Oh, it's Melinda, of course!" The boy immediately said happily.
"Are you here to watch Inception?" Melinda asked.
"Of course, we're here to watch Inception!" The boy nodded, "You don't know how good this movie is, oh my God, it's the first time I've seen such an interesting movie, it's just amazing!" ”
The boy directly started advertising "Inception".
Melinda smiled bitterly at this.
Then, she directly interrupted the boy and said to the girl, "Why did you come to watch Inception?" ”
The girl replied: "It's all this guy who said that "Inception" is good-looking, and he pulled me over, but I read the reviews of "Inception" is not bad, so I followed!" ”
The boy smiled shyly.
""Inception" is really good, otherwise I wouldn't have brought my girlfriend over to watch it, those friends of mine brought their girlfriends to watch!"
"Is Inception really that appealing?" Melinda asked, surprised.
"Of course, as long as you read it once, you will know!" The boy replied.
"Okay, thank you for your time." Melinda said.
At this moment, a lot of people suddenly came out of the movie theater.
Looks like there's a playback hall over.
However, something happened to Melinda's surprise, only to see that among these people who came out, nearly a third of them chose to rejoin the queue!
This scene immediately made Melinda stunned!
It's too fake, there is wood?
"Is Inception really that good?" A doubt crossed Melinda's mind.
Then, Melinda walked up to a fan, who was one of the people who had just come out.
"You're handsome, can I interview you?" Melinda asked.
Fan A looked at Melinda, and then exclaimed, "Oh my God, you're Melinda!" ”
Fan A seemed very excited, but Fan A's psychological quality was good, and he soon returned to normal, "It's an honor for me to be able to be interviewed by a beautiful woman!" ”
"Are you queuing up to watch Inception?"
"Of course!" Fan A replied.
"But I just saw you coming out of the cinema, were you just watching some other movie? However, if I'm not mistaken, today should be the Inception show! Melinda asked, confused.
"Yes, I was watching "Inception" just now, and to tell you the truth, this is the third time I've watched "Inception", you don't know, this movie is so interesting, she attracts me to watch it over and over again!" Fan A's answer shocked Melinda.
"The third time? You're not kidding, are you? ”
"In front of beautiful women, I never joke! Actually, I'm kind of 'normal', you look at that guy, this is his fourth time today, that guy is the fifth! Fan A pointed to two people and said.
Compared to these two crazy fans, Fan A is really a 'normal person'!
"Is Inception really that good? You have watched it so many times, don't you get tired of it? ”
"Of course, we watched Inception to solve the puzzle! There's so much to get us going with this movie! Fan A replied.
And Fan A's answer made Melinda itch in her heart.
Because she wants to see Inception now.
Next, Melinda interviewed several fans, and almost all of them responded with striking similarity.
"Inception is so good, fortunately, I brought enough money today to support me until twelve o'clock, and several of my friends have gone home because of lack of money!"
"It's nothing, I just like to watch Inception!"
……
Finally, Melinda interviewed the head of the [police] who maintained order, Inspector Jack.
"Inspector Jack, do you have any thoughts on this phenomenon?" Melinda asked.
"I just want to say, these guys are crazy, we people, we haven't had a day off, you can see, there are so many people all the time!"
Melinda: "......"
After interviewing Inspector Jack, this interview has finally come to an end.
"You guys go back, I have something to do today, so I won't leave with you!" Melinda said to her photographer and her deputy.
"Well, I'm a little bit of a problem too!" The deputy said.
"Melinda, what are you going to do?" The photographer asked with a strange look on his face.
"Watch Inception!" The two of them replied in unison.
"If that's the case, let's go back together, I want to see what Inception is like!" The photographer said with a smile.
Then, a group of three walked towards the team.
And this scene made Inspector Jack shake his head, and there were three more people in the team!
The next day, with this news report, the whole of America was shaken.
Is Inception really that good? This doubt appears in the minds of all American movie fans.
At the same time, the box office of the three major movies came out the next day, and this box office shocked fans across the United States.
Many people thought that the box office of "Inception" would decline on the second day, even if the theater alliance increased the film scheduling rate by 3%!
Of course, to be reasonable, the next-day box office should indeed be a little lower than the first-day box office!
For example, "Heroes of the World", on this day, "Heroes of the World" only achieved a box office of 45 million, and it fell by 5 million directly!
And "I Come from the Future" only had a box office of 31 million, which fell directly by 3 million US dollars!
However, their scheduling rate has not decreased in the slightest, and even, the two major movies have each increased their scheduling rate by one or two points.
However, the national box office of "Inception" on the second day surprised everyone and slapped some people in the face!
26 million dollars!
This was the U.S. box office for Inception on Day 2.
When I saw this box office, almost everyone thought that this box office was fake!
The reason is very simple, 15% of the film scheduling rate, to achieve this box office, it must be 100% attendance, but is this possible?
As a result, many people have raised doubts.
Many reporters even openly criticized "Inception" for box office fraud!
However, when the major movie theaters announced their attendance, these media reporters all kept their mouths shut.
The 99.9 percent attendance rate can almost be said to be 100 percent attendance, and there are only a few performances that are not full.
"Crazy, crazy, 100 percent attendance, my God, am I really in Blue Star?"
"My God, "Inception" is going to usurp the rhythm, and if it goes on like this, "I'm from the Future" will be dangerous!"
"In other words, is Inception really so good? How can there be such an attendance rate? ”
……
American movie fans are already crazy!
At this time, the one who was quite unhappy was the boss of the four major cinema chains.
Especially the third-ranked Shellrick Cinema and the fourth-ranked Carmike Cinema, at this time, they want to scold their mothers!
You know, 100% attendance, this Nima, it's all money!
Although Liu Lan and Marcus have contradictions, there is no contradiction with their two theater chains, why were they so cheap at the beginning and did not accept Liu Lan's kindness!
A discerning person can see at a glance that Marcus's "I'm from the Future" is not the opponent of Liu Lan's "Inception", and now, although the box office of "I'm from the Future" has an advantage, this is due to the film scheduling rate!
If it is the same film scheduling rate, "Inception" will definitely be able to beat "I'm from the Future" without even knowing my mother!
"Contact Liu Lan immediately, such an excellent movie can't just be played in the theater alliance!" Then, the bosses of the two major theater chains spoke.
Although it is a bit of a loss of face to do so, what is a loss of face compared to naked interests?
Moreover, "We value Liu Lan's future!" (To be continued.) )
