Chapter 752: Low expectations are a good thing

Lao Mouzi was very lucky, the theater he chose was a little remote, the media didn't take it into account, and after the end of the show, it was far inferior to the scene of those big theaters in Yanjing City, and in the car, he received a report from the investigator arranged by the company.

Several large movie cities in Yanjing, the first and second shows are all full, the second show has just started broadcasting, the tickets for the third show have been sold almost, the situation of the two movies is similar, on the one hand, we have a larger film schedule than the other party, and the difference between one and two shows may still be between the two shows, and the box office will come out.

Lao Mouzi interrupted the other party's eloquent conversation, he didn't want to listen to the other party have been analyzing how much box office there is, how much more will we have more films than the other party's box office, this kind of thing is not calculated by calculation, nor can it be short-lived to get the final answer, what he wants to know is what the reputation is, what the audience's reputation is like after watching the movie, this is what he is most eager to know.

"The response was very good, everyone praised it, saying that it was very enjoyable to watch, and the scene was very magnificent......"

How many years has Lao Mouzi been in this circle, and as soon as the people below opened his mouth, he basically knew that this film might not be expected.

What he wants is not for everyone to praise these, but to read what he wants to express, to praise some of his arrangements, to indulge in the use of some colors in it, these praises are the guarantee of the box office in China, but what about abroad? Foreign audiences who are already used to watching super blockbusters, will they buy it?

"And ......"

"What else, straight to the point."

"The audience said that the actor had found a foreigner. Why tell the story from his point of view, can't our own actors? Isn't it okay to set up a Chinese character? What do they know. How can they understand the director's thoughts, they are all a group of superficial people......"

"Alright. I know. ”

Lao Mouzi interrupted the other party's words, what he had been worried about still appeared, even if Bell is a very handsome handsome guy, he will also be unadaptable, you can't say that the audience is narrow-minded, they don't accept foreign actors, they feel that in a localized movie, especially about the war era half a century ago, you are like the story of "Assembly". It's a story that typical Chinese audiences want to see, but the heroes of this story, you have to say that those women are still acceptable, but the role of such a foreign actor is ......

Really, it doesn't work?

Lao Mouzi has never believed in evil, and this time he is honest, he is a little biased towards foreign battlefields in his heart, just because of the battle between Tiandi Media and the brother group, such a pure movie is tainted with something else, and he knows that once he fails, he will be in great trouble. But it can only be rushed upward.

No director will think that his work is not good enough, Lao Mouzi is no exception, he is still very confident in "Jinling Thirteen Hairpins", and believes that it will have a result that will surprise everyone. has "Twilight - Twilight" as the opponent, which will more or less attract some viewers who don't like Yang Yichen, in China and in Asia. However, there are many people who want to see Yang Yichen fail, and the enemy of the enemy is the strategy of friends. In this showdown, it will be vividly displayed.

…………………………

In China, it is a duel between the two heroes in everyone's eyes. gave a high evaluation, saying that it was a big competition that has not been encountered in ten years, saying that it was a competition between the Mesozoic and the new generation, saying everything, and there were many discussions, all waiting for the result of the duel between the two.

In foreign countries, the movement is much smaller, the brother group is quiet, and Tiandi Media has also made a little movement, and it turns out that the gimmick used in China, which is reduced several times will make people feel like a joke here, in the North American market, this is at best two films from Huaxia, and those propaganda only let people know that there are two films.

There are so many screens in North America, and it is difficult to make a big splash when two movies are thrown in, and the audience has more choices in the summer file, and the screens and publicity that were smashed out by tens of millions of dollars before are effective, but they are far less big than Tiandi Media thinks, so that a group of laymen and some industry insiders who ignore the rules for their own selfish desires can control Tiandi Media, and it is conceivable that it is normal to do such a stupid thing.

Lao Mouzi knows what is going on, he knows that he doesn't have so much appeal, in addition to increasing the base of some screens and making a certain amount of publicity, the rest of the more than 50 million is completely vindictive, even if it has an effect, it is definitely not what was expected at the time.

The country is in full swing and lively, which makes people feel full of confidence, and they feel that this film may create history, no longer let Yang Yichen be beautiful in the past two years, and step on him to become the highest-grossing movie.

Abroad, but it is a big disappointment, the ticket sales are really good, many Chinese and international students are going to support, and a considerable number of local audiences buy tickets into the cinema to watch, but after the first few shows, only four or five percent of the attendance rate, far from meeting expectations, suddenly this Yangzi and several shareholder representatives panicked, held a meeting to the specific person in charge below and slapped the table and scolded the mother, telling the other party what to do......

Brother Chen Jiu was speechless, he had lived in the United States for a long time, and he knew more about it than anyone here, thinking of the small part of the funds that had entered his pocket from the previous crazy publicity expenses, he just wanted to smile at the people present, you guys, please continue, because of you, I can extract more 'bones and blood' from this behemoth.

On the other hand, "Twilight - Twilight", Yang Yichen has his own fixed fan base, his personal influence, covering the fan group at the fastest speed, when the film's pilot trailer attracted everyone's attention, at the beginning of the official release, the total number of more than sixty percent of the audience are fans, coming in groups, calling friends, the spare time life of students in North America is extraordinarily rich, watching movies is just a small entertainment activity, and there is no pressure at all in the economy, and no more reasons are needed, It is enough to support the singers that their idols like, even if it is a movie that purely sells appearance, they are willing to spend this money.

Low expectations are really a good thing.

Because of the frustration of publicity, being widely disfavored, and being criticized by many people, this twilight is actually not particularly optimistic when it is released, and everyone lacks basic trust in Yang Yichen as a blood-sucking ghost, it can be said that it is on the same starting line as Lao Mouzi's new film, and the other party uses Hollywood actors and enough explosive publicity to make the film receive a lot of attention before it is released, although it is difficult to be fully accepted, at least a considerable number of people feel that they can go into the cinema and take a look.

"Twilight - Twilight", on the day of its North American premiere, was sold out at midnight.

"Jinling Thirteen - Hairpin", on the day of the North American premiere, at midnight, the attendance rate was eighty percent, and then began to decline.

At first, the people of Tiandi Media were very happy, thinking that the box office of this film in North America must be good, the marketing plan was successful, and the whole operation process was completely in line with normal business rules, but they ignored the biggest drawback of the layman commanding the insider-not knowing how to do it.

The most important thing in the operation of the film is not how good your business operation is, but that your film is good enough, eye-catching enough, and liked by the audience enough. "Jinling Thirteen - Hairpin", an ordinary belly, after the hit in China, the goal of Tiandi Media was changed from losing money to making money, Lao Mouzi shook his head when he heard it, the investment of more than 100 million US dollars, you have to say that it is all smashed on my movie, I admit to carrying this thunder, but now what have you done with nearly 60 million, this so-called propaganda, I don't carry the thunder.

More than ten hours passed, midnight in China, noon in the United States.

Huaxia is naturally still in full swing, tickets for both sides are selling very well, the two films almost directly monopolize the number of films in the country, and there are only a few Hollywood medium productions and one or two mainstream films that survive in the cracks, and there are only three or four shows a day, and they are still being squeezed, and all the remaining fields are occupied by these two films.

Going hand in hand, the first day of the two films in the first-tier and second-tier city cinemas, almost all of them are full, with the appeal of both sides, whether in terms of investment, directors, actors, storyline, etc., it is almost impossible to distinguish the winner in the first two days, it depends on who reports the box office on the first day.

Everyone knows in their hearts that today's show must have a fake box office, judging from the observation of big cities in China, the two sides are basically at more than eighty percent of the attendance rate in each game, and the box office must be between the two sides, it is estimated that both sides will report a false box office to put gold on their faces, just see who is more shameless, more calculating, waiting for the other party to come up with the numbers first and then raise some of them themselves.

In fact, Lao Mouzi no longer has the heart to pay more attention to the box office on the first day, and more serious problems are waiting for him and everyone.

Problems began to arise in North America, and I didn't observe more, just in LA, the attendance rate is declining rapidly, it is less than half, this is only the first day, it is nothing that Chinese films have encountered such a thing, but now there is a reference in front of you, the attendance rate of "Twilight - Twilight", not only did not decline, but there is an upward trend, according to the feedback of employees in several large theaters arranged by Tiandi Media, the audience, especially young audiences, has a very good reputation for Twilight, And there are few responses to the drama Jinling, most of the current box office providers are Chinese, and the American audience shook their heads in a state of incomprehension after watching it, and after asking, they learned that they didn't understand what this was at all, and the war scene was okay, but it could only be regarded as average.
