Chapter 257: Hypnosis

"Tangshan Earthquake" is about to break 5, and breaking 6 has become a foregone conclusion, surpassing "Chinese Partner" to become the highest-grossing domestic film, and Feng Xiaogang has become the highest-grossing commercial director in the mainland. =Top=Dot=Small-Say"

Looking at the latest movie box office report on mtime, Bai Yuhan was quite unhappy, very unhappy.

The box office record of "Chinese Partner" was brushed off after only one month. Last month, the media, which was boasting that Bai Yuhan was the best commercial director in China, suddenly all began to praise or scold Feng Xiaogang. This kind of taste of the focus of public opinion, Bai Yuhan hasn't enjoyed it enough!

What's even more depressing is that his new film "Master of Hypnosis" is seriously underrated.

"Xiaomeng, you say, do these people have a problem with their brains, watch a trailer, you know that "Hypnosis Master" can't get rid of the shackles of domestic suspense films, old wine in new bottles, change soup without medicine? I made three movies, which one was bad at the box office, and they don't have a long memory? ”

Throwing a copy of "Nandu Entertainment Weekly" on the table, Bai Yuhan complained to Lian Meng, the assistant who came in to clean up.

On the pages of the magazine, the alarmist headline reads: "The increasingly rigid domestic horror genre films reflect the absurdity of the domestic film system." ”

There are many examples of domestic horror movies, and then they are compared with foreign horror films, and the final conclusion is that the distance between the toad and the swan is reached. Then he went on to argue that everything was the fault of the system. Bai Yuhan does not object to this point of view, China's film system is indeed very speechless.

But it shouldn't be, this article. unexpectedly put "Hypnosis Master" as a target, and through the release of several trailers, it was summed up that "Hypnosis Master" is also deeply poisoned by the system. It's just that the previous drugging and mental illness have been changed to being hypnotized.

So he began to follow up and analyze, believing that the box office of "Hypnosis Master" will definitely hit the street.

The words are conclusive, and the oath is true.

It's as if "Master of Hypnosis" is a bad movie.

"Boss, in your usual words, didn't they bring shame on themselves and send their faces to the door. Wait for "Master of Hypnosis" to become popular. Aren't they dumbfounded, if you argue with the boss, you must have the consciousness of being slapped in the face. Lian Meng patted a little fart.

Bai Yuhan shook his head. said very unhappily: "Although you say that, you underestimate the thickness of these reporters' skins, they are right, that is the conscientious media." Be realistic. Represents justice. If what they say is wrong, then it is as if they did not say it, and who can do anything with them, uncrowned king, this is the uncrowned king! I knew I was going to be a reporter too, and I could scold whoever I wanted! ”

"Boss, you seem to be the uncrowned king too."

"How?"

"Station B Weibo, you are a super V, with tens of millions of fans. One sentence can affect how many ignorant boys and girls. ”

"Little dream, I'll tell you. Indeed, as a super V, I have a lot of fans and a lot of influence. However, we have mastered public opinion, and we must not abuse it at will, it is okay to promote and promote movies, and it is understandable that the celebrity effect makes some money. However, we must not arbitrarily publish some current affairs and political opinions that are acupuncture of the current affairs and disadvantages according to personal preferences. You have to understand that when you have a conscience, you don't necessarily have the truth, and when you have the truth, you don't necessarily remember the conscience. As a super V, we need to be more cautious in our words and deeds, promote social righteousness, spread positive energy, and be enthusiastic about public welfare, which is a good thing to do. Scolding the government, scolding the system, and scolding the society is negative energy, and you must not be capricious, only when you have the truth and conscience, can you do so. Got it? ”

Lian Meng nodded: "Understood." But like you, boss, there are not many responsible big Vs, and in Station B's Weibo, many well-known big Vs are talking nonsense, and there is no lower limit for rumors. ”

"So I have a plan, the next step is to rectify Station B's Weibo, add a rumor-mongering reporting mechanism, once it is determined that it is rumor-mongering, and the number of rebroadcasts reaches 500, the account will be banned. Now Station B Weibo is dominant, and it has become an indispensable tool for netizens, and cleaning it up will not cause great turmoil. ”

Bai Yuhan said it easily, but in fact, it is not easy to clean up the Weibo of station B. First of all, after several rounds of financing, although he is the largest shareholder, his proportion has dropped a lot, and the feelings of other shareholders must be considered. Secondly, Station B Weibo has been taken care of by the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology, and many things are no longer something that a company can make decisions without authorization, and it is necessary to cooperate with the government.

All he can do is propose a reporting mechanism, and as for those remarks with ulterior motives, Bai Yuhan can't deal with them if they don't violate the rules of the website. After all, the next goal of Interactive Star is to go public, and everything must be executed according to the rules.

After all, Bai Yuhan is just one person, he can't change the general trend, what he can do is to abide by it as an ordinary person, love the country and support the party, don't cause trouble to the country and the people, not a good person, but definitely not a big villain. Under this premise, live as chic as possible, play with women chicly, do business chicly, and make movies chic.

"I'm not a deputy to the National People's Congress, and I'm not going to speak at the CPPCC, it's just a little gangster!" This is Bai Yuhan's greatest pursuit of his life.

……

The record of "Chinese Partner" was broken, and "Master of Hypnosis" was generally not optimistic, Bai Yuhan was indeed a little aggrieved.

But everything that should happen still has to happen, and it's Thursday, August 5th, and "Hypnosis Master" is released under the onslaught of a bunch of blockbusters.

"Tangshan Earthquake", as always, occupies half of the major theaters, and is riding to the box office of 500 million and 600 million.

"Adella's Extraordinary Adventure", which was released on August 3, although it is a French film, but the director Luc . Besson, but the director of the famous "This Killer Is Not Too Cold", is not weak in China. And the temperament embodied in "Adella's Extraordinary Adventure" is also very unique, with good theater attendance and good box office.

It's a bit unrealistic to fight against the hot "Tangshan Earthquake", and "Adella's Extraordinary Adventure" has little publicity, and neither movie is a serious opponent of "Hypnosis Master".

The only thing that "Hypnosis Master" has to fight with heart is "The Whole City Alert", which is no worse than "Tangshan Earthquake" and has a better director cast. This is a fantasy film directed by Chen Musheng and starring Aaron Kwok, Shu Qi, Wu Jing, Zhang Jingchu, etc., as a domestic co-production, the expectations are very strong.

Fortunately, "Hypnosis Master" is scheduled for August 5, and "City Alert" is scheduled for August 6, which will be released one day in advance, which will help the brewing of word-of-mouth.

In this way, in the midst of entanglement and anticipation, "Master of Hypnosis" met the audience.

On the day of the premiere, Bai Yuhan deliberately wore a hooded mask and ran to an ordinary movie theater. The cinema filmed a total of 30 movies throughout the day, 16 for "Tangshan Earthquake", five for "Adella's Extraordinary Adventure", two for "My Beauty Boss", and the remaining seven for "Hypnosis Master".

Of these seven shows, two are in the morning, three are in the afternoon, and the remaining two are in the evening. Especially for a domestic suspense thriller, it is not that the theater has confidence in the movie and will not arrange an afternoon show.

Bai Yuhan watched the show at four o'clock in the afternoon.

The theater accommodates 80 people, and 36 people sit up, and the attendance rate is so-so, barely reaching half of the attendance. It's just that for Bai Yuhan, who is used to box office explosions, such a premiere attendance rate is still in the afternoon session, which is a little shabby.

But soon, Bai Yuhan was at ease.

With the screening of "Master of Hypnosis", the audience, who was not very serious, was all conquered by the temperament of the movie, quieted down and watched it seriously.

The opening scene is the beginning of a classic horror movie, a middle-aged woman with a child, shivering in the house, and a gloomy young woman outside, trying to open the door and come in. One is hiding in fear, the other is chasing with a gloomy face, coupled with Bai Yuhan's carefully polished soundtrack sound effects compared to the original movie, which immediately makes people fall into the atmosphere of the movie.

This atmosphere makes all the viewers think that this is the time when a horror movie.

An unexpected turn of events soon followed.

A middle-aged woman with her child hid in a room and called for help from a man reading a newspaper. turned out to be Xu Ruining, a psychotherapist played by Xu Zheng, who came to help middle-aged women treat mental illness. Twenty years ago, a middle-aged woman was careless and ran over her daughter in a reversing car, and she always fantasized that her daughter was still alive.

After Xu Ruining's enlightenment, the middle-aged woman finally let go of her heart knot.

Then, this beginning is just a video of Xu Ruining's speech in college, talking about the topic of trance hypnosis and fresh hypnosis. At the end of the speech, Xu Ruining immediately received a request for help from his teacher, Professor Fang, and began to treat a special patient, Ren Xiaoyan.

From the beginning of the treatment of Ren Xiaoyan, the story of "Yin and Yang Eyes" was told, glass marbles, midnight buses, and battles of wits and courage were staged all the time. The rhythm of the movie, which can be said to be oppressive from beginning to end, makes people involuntarily follow the movie, without letting go of any details.

And hypnosis and anti-hypnosis made the audience even more stunned, and they couldn't tell whether Xu Ruining was attacking Ren Xiaoyan or Ren Xiaoyan was fighting back against Xu Ruining.

The falling pocket watch, the flickering cigarette butts, the fingers tapping the papers, this is hypnosis on the surface, and some of the hypnosis enters completely unconsciously. These hypnotsis have to wait for a while before it suddenly happens, oh, it turns out that the sound of high heels can also be a hypnotic tool, and the plucked clock can also be a hypnotic tool.

Ren Xiaoyan's life experience was discovered by Xu Ruining little by little, and at the same time, Ren Xiaoyan also let Xu Ruining show her fragile side and story side little by little.

Wave after wave of **, the impact continues! (To be continued......)
