342: First day box office
With the release of Infernal Affairs, the social repercussions are also different.
There are those who sigh, there are those who regret, and there are those who scold.
In short, if you are in a different identity and look at it from different angles, you can always see something that belongs to you.
The protagonist died at the last moment, and it can be said that Infernal Affairs not only created a new history of Chinese films, but also greatly challenged the existing film and television market.
No one knows what will happen in the future, but now, many people regret it.
This movie does not conform to the current routine at all, and it does not meet people's expectations.
What is the ultimate purpose of the movie? It is to show what people expect from the movie. What most of them can't do in reality, they want to have a film and television work to help them achieve it.
Except for the ending, it can be said that they are all satisfied with this movie. The only thing that displeased them was the ending.
In most people's minds, the final end should be Chen Yongren's return to the police station and his rise to the rank of inspector. Liu Jianming must die, and at worst go to prison.
Instead of being like at the end of now, when all the good guys are dead, the bad guys are able to stand in front of the graves of the good guys and show their respect by pretending to salute.
At night, Qin Dahai sat in front of the computer.
For a whole day today, he only did one thing, went to the theater to watch Infernal Affairs.
After waiting in line for a morning, I finally bought a ticket for the movie at 6 o'clock in the afternoon. After watching the movie, the time had reached nearly seven forty o'clock, and I had dinner outside. It was ten o'clock when I got home.
However, Qin Dahai had no intention of resting. As a professional film critic. Qin Dahai is still very professional. At least he is not like some people who don't even watch movies and make those irresponsible remarks directly on the Internet.
A few days ago, someone found Qin Dahai and asked him to write a film review about Infernal Affairs, perhaps because he had known Qin Dahai's style for a long time, so the other party's requirements were not much, there was only one condition. That is to belittle Infernal Affairs.
At the same time, Qin Dahai was also able to get a reward of 100,000 yuan. And Qin Dahaiwei. The number of followers in the hundreds of thousands is also the most fundamental reason for this transaction.
I made myself a cup of strong tea and lit a favorite cigarette.
Qin Dahai began to gradually quiet down, and the scenes in today's movie passed quickly in Qin Dahai's mind.
Because they are film critics and because of this profession, they are destined to be unable to watch it once like ordinary audiences, just think it's good or not.
They need to have some point of their own, good looks. Why is it good-looking, and why is it not good-looking? They have to tell one, two, three, four. Only in this way can they make their articles more influential.
Compared with those peers who have only existed in this industry for a very short time, Qin Dahai has been in this industry for five years, and his popularity is becoming more and more popular.
Qin Dahai cherishes his present very much, so Qin Dahai will not write easily, he must think clearly and find out the problem before he can criticize this movie.
But after thinking about it, Qin Dahai could only find loopholes from a few subtle goofs. But unfortunately, he will not look for such a small problem.
Compared with other movies on the market, there are very few goofs in Wang Luo's movies, and there are even less than three goofs in a movie.
And Qin Dahai never went to the trouble of those trivial goofs, and in desperation, Qin Dahai had no choice but to write an article at the end.
After all, in his opinion, the problem of the ending is the biggest.
It not only does not meet the current market demand, but also makes the audience feel very disappointed.
This movie is indeed a success, from the beginning, people can't find any faults, and the interlocking plot is thrilling. But the ending part is the biggest failure of this movie.
What is the purpose of our films? In addition to letting people see what they can't do on weekdays, it's more important to convey some positive energy to the society.
But alas, in the second half of the film, I don't see any positive energy. Chen Yongren is an undercover agent and the protagonist.
The good guys are dead, the bad guys are happy, perhaps, that's what you want to express! ’
Qin Dahai really didn't know what to rewrite this article, and Qin Dahai couldn't do the original 1,000-word long review. He didn't want to write too much about the things in the movie, he just wanted to tell everyone what was described in the movie.
Let everyone know that this movie is not about the victory of good over evil, but about the erroneous view that evil must win over good, so as to put Wang Luo in the whirlpool of public opinion and achieve the purpose of his employer.
Of course, Qin Dahai is not a fool, as a professional film critic, how can he not see that this movie is actually not finished?
In any movie, the final result can only be that the bad guys are caught and the good guys are revealed.
Infernal Affairs is a series, and after the second part comes out, I'm afraid no one will think that this is the end.
But it's a pity that even the protagonist is dead, they really can't imagine how Wang Luo will shoot the next film? Is it possible to resurrect the protagonist? Or maybe someone else is going to get him to wrap it up?
In this case, it is clear that it has deviated from the theme of Infernal Affairs, and it does not fit the identity of the series.
In fact, there is another sentence that Qin Dahai didn't say, that is, Wang Luo has already exhausted Jiang Lang's talent, and he doesn't know how to shoot the next movie. That's why the protagonist will die, and in the end, it's a hundred and the series will end.
As soon as Qin Dahai's comment came out, it immediately caused a sensation on the Internet, with some agreeing, some neutral, and some opposing.
I have to admit that in terms of screenwriting, Wang Luo has indeed put a lot of effort into it.
The plot arrangement that was doubted in that world, Wang Luo made changes.
For example, that section in the office. Chen Yongren was an old undercover agent for three years, three years and three years. The ability to resist stress has already reached its peak. When he found out that Liu Jianming was an undercover agent, there was no need for him to panic and escape.
And later, he also found evidence that Liu Jianming was a mole.
Regarding this, Wang Luo added a shot, after leaving the police station, Chen Yongren remembered what Silly Qiang had said to him, and then went to Han Chen's office and found the tape where the recording was hidden. Then he used this box of tape to make an appointment with Liu Jianming.
And this change just explains why he didn't go directly to report Liu Jianming, but asked him out, so that he lost his name.
A micro-film lover named Movie Lover. Bo forwarded and replied to Qin Dahai's comment.
And this comment quickly attracted people's attention, and they began to express their opinions.
From the beginning of Infernal Affairs I, the end of Infernal Affairs II has been doomed, killing people and setting fire to the gold belt, building bridges and repairing roads without corpses. It's a series of movies. Although the end of the second part leaves us with regrets, it is not the end. We all ignore the existence of a soy sauce character. And his words left us with infinite reverie. ’
Film and television lovers did not ask who the soy sauce character was, and even when he said this, many people began to recall the picture of the movie in their hearts and wanted to find this soy sauce character.
But alas, they didn't find out this person.
And this person, who only appeared on one side in the entire Infernal Affairs, and was also seen as a back, a complete soy sauce-type character.
That is the second in the police academy period, Yang Jinrong, at the end of the show, the picture returned to the picture of Chen Yongren being expelled, and at the same time that Liu Jianming said that I wanted to change with him, Yang Jinrong, who was standing behind Liu Jianming, said three words at the same time, I don't believe it.
It is precisely because of these three words that film and television lovers can perceive Wang Luo's deep meaning. also made him feel that in the next film, this Yang Jinrong will definitely be a key figure.
Under what circumstances can the conflict between the front and back be more obvious? Only when Chen Yongren is dead can he play the role of Yang Jinrong.
Although there is a lot of noise on the Internet because of the ending of Infernal Affairs, the rating about this movie is very high, surprisingly reaching a terrifying score of 9.8.
This is the only time in history that there has been such a score once in 10 years.
At that time, the network was just beginning, and the number of people participating in the rating was not very large. Therefore, although the two are both 9.8 points, the gold content is very different.
Late at night, the city finally quieted down after a busy day, and people began to fall asleep, waiting for the arrival of a new day.
But at the headquarters of Roselle Entertainment, the lights are bright.
But almost all the departments related to Infernal Affairs II remained, and they were all waiting for this moment to come, and they wanted to see if Infernal Affairs II could set a new record.
Although today's results are definitely not too bad from the situation reflected by various theaters, there is no specific data after all, and only after seeing the specific data can they really put their minds at ease.
Compared with the last time, Wang Luo is much more relaxed, not as nervous as the first time, as if a good student already knew his score after the exam.
"The results are in!" I don't know who shouted first, attracting the attention of the people who were waiting in the entire office.
Immediately after, a long string of numbers appeared on the big screen.
China Entertainment Cinema Line, 8,500 broadcasts, with a cumulative box office of 110.5 million and an average box office of 13,000 yuan.
'Hiss~~~~'
After reading the first piece of information, everyone couldn't help but gasp, China Entertainment alone was a theater chain, and the box office exceeded 100 million yuan on the first day, which was the first time in the Chinese film industry.
Although there are many factors in this, for example, there were no blockbusters released at the same time, and various theaters gave Infernal Affairs a lot of film scheduling support.
But despite this, Infernal Affairs' box office exceeded their expectations. One point and one billion, if other movies can reach this number on the first day of the country, I am afraid it is already very good.
Huayi Cinema Line, 4,300 broadcasts, with a cumulative box office of 43,430,000 and an average box office of 10,000 yuan.
Compared with Huayi Cinema, the data is not so terrifying compared to Huayu, but here in Huayi Cinema, this data is extremely terrifying.
……
One after another theater results are listed on the big screen, although the numbers behind are getting fewer and fewer, there is no doubt that the box office of each theater on the first day has exceeded 10 million.
There are more than 20 theaters in cooperation with Wang Luo across the country, each of which has exceeded 10 million, so what will happen to the final box office?
The cumulative number of broadcasts on the first day of the country is 42,000, the box office on the first day is 407400000, and the average box office is 9,700 yuan.
'Buzz ......'
The office suddenly became lively, and many people were excited to see the people around them like a bear hug, regardless of whether the other party was a man or a woman, and whether the other party was willing or not.
Even Wang Luo couldn't escape, and was cleaned up by the company's employees.
The box office exceeded 400 million on the first day, even if the box office will gradually fall back in the future, but how much box office can be accumulated in a month?
The box office of Infernal Affairs II on the first day has surpassed Infernal Affairs by more than 100 million, what is this concept? No one dares to imagine. (It's too exaggerated, I really can't imagine it, but considering the background of the plot design of this book, plus the foreshadowing of Infernal Affairs, as well as the attribute bonuses of the Foundation and Infernal Affairs 'Two' (in fact, the one we see), plus the large number of films given by a large number of theaters, it seems that there is nothing impossible to give this box office.) But again, the market is only so big, and the final box office will not be too surprising. )
"Four hundred million...... That's a box office of 400 million? Wang Biwen said excitedly, took out a box of cigarettes from his pocket with trembling hands, took out one and lit it, regardless of the company's regulations.
The first-day box office of 400 million is too big for him, and he needs to light a cigarette to suppress the shock.
Even if the box office will fall later, according to the previous rules, there is no big problem for the box office to break 1.3 billion in the first week. In a month, wouldn't you be heading for the goal of 2.5 billion?
Even if the share is excluded, because the distributor is also a distribution company under Roselle Entertainment, the two shares together are 31.7, if calculated according to 2.5 billion, Roselle Entertainment can get nearly 800 million, even if the tax is removed, the money given to the foundation is about 700 million.
A movie can bring them so many benefits, which was unimaginable before. Wang Biwen only felt that he had dissolved the company to follow Wang Luo, which was regarded as following the right person, and at least he could go out in style. (To be continued.) )
