Chapter 175: Twists and Turns
On August 25, the day after the end of the first week's box office statistics, there was a lot of heated discussion on the Internet.
"Have you heard that Star Media is going to celebrate in advance!"
"Hahaha, Old Man Meng 6666, this kind of adventurous spirit is only loved by him."
"This thing is a double-edged sword, and if you use it well, you can increase your momentum, just like the last "Crazy Stone", which was celebrated in advance at the end of the second week of its release, and it really crushed European and American blockbusters in one fell swoop.
"Why do I think Old Man Meng and Xue Jinxing will slap their faces this time?"
"The big brother upstairs, I feel the same way, I think Ye Xiangdong and Li Long's movies are better than "Spy Change"."
"Yes, I thought it was good the first time I watched "Spy Change", I felt bored the second time, and I wanted to vomit the third time, and "Yanjing Meets Seattle" became better and better the more I watched it, and I still wanted to watch it after watching it, just like a brewed wine, it will become more mellow over time."
"I'm here, big brother, is it really as good-looking as you say? Why haven't I heard of this movie? ”
"This is to blame Ye Xiangdong, the guy who died, Xue Jinxing is so old, and he is still desperately advertising and promoting, he is good, lying down in the gentle fragrance and sleeping, poor Uncle Dabo is unladylike."
"Although I don't know what you're doing in BB, but it seems to be very powerful, Brother Chong, with your attitude, I also want to go and see "Yanjing Meets Seattle"
"Highly recommend "Yanjing Meets Seattle", if it's not good-looking, you come to beat me!"
Evening. Star Media held a celebration banquet of "Spy Change" at the Shenzhou Hotel as scheduled, inviting many celebrities in the circle.
Banquet Center. Xue Jinxing stood there in a black dress, and there were people toasting before and after everyone. A bright smile appeared on his face, which reminded him of Ye Xiangdong at that time, he used to be a supporting role sitting at the wine table, but now he is the real protagonist, and he suddenly felt like he had turned over and became the master.
The only regret is that when he was so majestic, Ye Xiangdong and Li Long didn't come, it was so rude, you deserved to lose to me.
Thinking of this, Xue Jinxing was extremely proud. It's even happier than he won the award.
is different from the lively Star Media, but the people in Dongye Studio are deserted, except for a few sporadic workers, only Ye Xiangdong and other veterans are left.
"Sister Xiaomei, have Huang Bo and Guo Tao been informed?" Ye Xiangdong answered a phone call and asked sideways.
Zuo Xiaomei put down the work in her hand and chuckled: "Your big boss Ye has spoken, how dare we little staff not disobey?" I was relieved and informed. However, "
"But what?" Ye Xiangdong was puzzled.
"But Guo Tao recently filmed a TV series, and he caught up, so he may not be able to come." Zuo Xiaomei spread her hands and said helplessly.
"That's right." Ye Xiangdong thought for a moment. replied: "Forget it, anyway, this time it's just for them to go through the motions, and if they can't go, forget it." By the way, did Huang Bo explain when he would come back. ”
He said the director of the new film was pressing. In order to free up the time on the 31st, I will have to come back the night after tomorrow at the earliest. ”
"Count him as acquaintances." Ye Xiangdong nodded with satisfaction. asked Su Yi again: "Sister Su, help me book 4 tickets to Los Angeles." ”
"Hey, Guo Tao is not going, why do you need 4 tickets?" Su Yi was puzzled, at the end of the month, when the Emmy Awards invited Ye Xiangdong, she naturally remembered it clearly, but the original plan was only Ye Xiangdong, herself, Huang Bo, and Guo Tao, but now Guo Tao is not going, it should be three people, suddenly seemed to think of something, and looked at Ye Xiangdong ambiguously.
"Ahem, I can't sleep alone." Ye Xiangdong touched his nose and said embarrassedly.
Su Yi and Zuo Xiaomei couldn't help but roll their eyes, completely speechless, when they didn't know Yang Ying'er before, they couldn't sleep without seeing you.
Spit and complain, Su Yi dutifully asked: "No. 30?" ”
"That's right."
In Ye Xiangdong's anxious waiting, a few more days later, the domestic box office war was still hot.
"Spy Change", "The Strongest Martial Artist", and "Yanjing Meets Seattle" are like three mountains pressing heavily on the streets, making people envious, jealous and hateful.
In the past two weeks, the situation has changed, "Spy Change" still occupies the box office champion for the time being because of the high-intensity publicity in the first week, but this gap has gradually narrowed, after all, no matter how strong the publicity is, it is limited, and when it reaches a certain amount, this popularity will slow down.
And "The Strongest Martial Arts" and "Yanjing Meets Seattle" are just the opposite, with the decline in the popularity of "Spy Change", their ratings have risen violently, and in just a few days, the gap has been pulled down by 11 million, maybe after tonight, it may be surpassed.
When Xue Jinxing saw this scene, the smile on his face disappeared, leaving only grim, but useless.
On the 29th, a blockbuster news came, and Emperor Entertainment, where Li Long is located, sent the latest congratulatory message: Warm congratulations on Aaron's new film landing in the ranks of Hollywood blockbusters, "The Strongest Martial Arts" will be released nationwide in the United States on September 1, I hope that the majority of fans can support Aaron, thank you!!
As soon as this news came out, not only China, but also the whole of Asia exploded in an instant.
In this world of one superpower and many powers, whether it is the economy or the entertainment industry, the United States has always been sought after.
And Asia has always been a flowering outside the wall and a fragrance inside the wall, with such a glorious addition, Li Long's popularity soared overnight, evolving from an international star to an international director, which made everyone look sideways.
Correspondingly, Emperor Entertainment took this opportunity to hype up in China and promote "The Strongest Martial Arts" with the greatest efforts, and the effect was unexpectedly good, and in less than half an hour, the advertising space that originally promised "Spy Change" changed hands again and became Li Long's cyst.
With the strong rise of Li Long, "The Strongest Martial Arts" was also labeled as Hollywood, and the popularity index climbed instantly, and the popularity index topped the thousand-degree list that night.
Under this series of dazzling hype, it is not surprising that in the early morning of the 30th, the latest box office data came out.
First place: "The Strongest Martial Arts" total box office: 930 million;
second place: "Spy Change" total box office: 820 million;
third place: "Yanjing Meets Seattle" total box office: 809 million;
fourth place: "Who Am I" total box office: 210 million;
The data once again shocked the people, "The Strongest Martial Arts" surpassed, but it was a big advantage, surpassing the second place with a box office of 110 million to win the championship the next week, and it deserved to be a well-deserved international star.
Different from the excitement of the people, for Xue Jinxing, who was in the limelight for a while, this was heart-wrenching news, and it was undoubtedly a basin of cold footwashing water, which suddenly pulled him back from the illusion.
originally thought that the champion was in hand, but Li Long's sudden rise, this was something he never expected, as soon as he thought of the aura of glory on Li Long, Xue Jinxing felt a sense of powerlessness, fortunately, Ye Xiangdong This guy is still behind him, and now he doesn't expect to defeat Li Long, as long as he can suppress him.
After all, if you lose to Li Long, you will be defeated and honored, but if you lose to Ye Xiangdong, hehe (to be continued......)
