"It's a very special movie." After the premiere, that is, the evil Valentine's Day, the professional film critics who squeezed into the cinema for the first time began to use their pen and ink, they originally relied on this industry to eat, and the more influential ones were often invited to participate in test screenings, premieres and other activities.

Zhang Qiu regretted that none of these activities were carried out, and these film critics could only squeeze the premiere like other audiences if they wanted to get the first piece of information. With their professionalism, there is no problem at all to grab tickets, and I don't know if the situation on Valentine's Day will make them awkward.

"It is said that all the hotels in Qingxi were full last night, should we invest in one?" After going to see his performance, Zhang Qiu regretted to return to the script, and when he was tired of writing, he took the time to read the news and movie reviews.

"There are more people who want to open a hotel, do you know why those people don't take action? Because there is only one day a year, Valentine's Day. Ye Qingqing was also busy and said, "No, you can also add a Tanabata." There are 365 days a year, and business is good for these two days. ”

"Film critics and the media don't pay attention to our films, they pay attention to these boring issues." Hongdou glared at him and said dissatisfiedly: "Those express hotels are all professional-level, so you don't need to worry about the man-making movement." ”

In this era of unforgivable spoilers, whether professional or non-professional film critics, they can generally avoid spoilers when writing film reviews, or indicate whether there are spoilers at the beginning, so as not to affect the viewing experience.

Of course, there are also people who take pleasure in it, and there are even special spoiler websites, whether they are spoilers or not, they generally comment on the storyline of the movie, but "Hot Questions About Time Travel" has none of these at all.

The media reports said that the movie was very special, but there was no mention of what was special. As for the film review website, all kinds of film reviews are discussing various issues that travel through time and space, such as the grandmother paradox, as if they are also engaged in scientific research.

This makes people who haven't gone to the movie yet and want to find a clue from it confuse, and can only ask those who have already seen the movie: "What kind of movie is this?" ”

"It's special, it's a difference." I don't know if it's influenced by the Internet and the media, so the audience can't help but sell it, just to see what other people's expressions will be after watching the movie.

"Is it really science fiction? How about the special effects, can they be compared to Hollywood? ”

"Nonsense, Zhang Qiuxi said that it was science fiction, so can it be fake? As for the movie, I can guarantee that it will be very exciting. ”

has formed this kind of situation where everyone sells off, and it is estimated that they don't know how to comment on it, this is indeed a science fiction film, but it is too non-mainstream, almost subverting the audience's previous concept of science fiction films, this feeling is really indescribable, and it can only be experienced after watching it in person.

"The report came out, and the total box office last night exceeded 200 million, of which the box office of our movie accounted for one-third, which is more than 80 million." Shangguan Jin received the latest news and excitedly announced: "We are the box office champions on Valentine's Day, and other films are not opponents, and this momentum can continue." ”

"The best time for this schedule was last night, and the next drop should be very strong." Hongdou said with some dissatisfaction: "And the premiere of 80 million is not high, judging from the current domestic film market, I am embarrassed to say hello to my peers if I don't break 100 million on the first day." ”

"Please, our cost is only 300,000, don't measure it by the standard of a blockbuster, now those who know the inside story are already dumbfounded, this kind of small and big is a miracle in all senses." Shangguan Jin was very content, or very satisfied.

Not to mention professionals and veteran fans, even ordinary audiences can see that this movie does not require much investment at all, and it is a completely low-budget movie. If you want to publicize that the cost of the movie is millions or tens of millions, no one will believe it, and the CG lens is saved to almost say that there is none, the main creator is the investor, and where is the money spent if he really invests so much?

"What is certain is that the investment in this film is definitely not more than one million, but the box office in two days of release is already more than 100 times the cost, and it is definitely the most profitable film in the history of the Chinese film industry, there is no one."

With the longer it has been released, the mystery of the movie has been completely revealed, and the speculation about the cost of the movie is also very loud, although it is not yet accurate, but it has shocked everyone.

Zhang Qiuxi was not taboo at all about this, and was not worried that this was a very hateful and eye-catching thing, and directly disclosed all the phone bills one by one, not only clearly stating that the cost was only 300,000, but also listing in detail where the 300,000 yuan was used.

"Is it really good to show off like this?" That's right, they are definitely showing off their red fruits, and everyone doesn't know what to say when they look at it, and their admiration for Zhang Qiuxi has reached a higher level.

Making movies is a very money-burning thing, although there has been no shortage of small-cost box office dark horses over the years, but it is the first time that the investment cost has been pulled so low. Bring in all the big-name directors in China, and give them 300,000 yuan, and no one can make a movie.

The cost of the movie is mainly based on the script, and the appropriate investment in the script can be saved, Zhang Qiuxi does not need such an investment for all scripts, and the cost of the "Light Dancing and Flying" micro-film is also several times that of this movie.

In the movie, Zhang Qiuxi and the three of them fiercely ridiculed Hollywood movies, saying that the script is king, and it was and will only be like this in the past. This kind of ridicule is nothing in normal times, but this movie proves the importance of the script, as long as there is a wonderful story, how much money to invest is not the criterion of whether it can be successful. ”

"Zhang Qiuxi is Zhang Qiuxi, many film and television workers may be jealous of the cost and benefits of this movie, but this is something that others can't learn. In this movie, we see the joked and free-flowing Zhang Qiuxi in the Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy, with the same humor and spoof, the same absurdity. ”

"Among the domestic film practitioners, Zhang Qiuxi is the only one who dares to ridicule Hollywood, and more importantly, even if Hollywood knows that they are ridiculed, they will be speechless, strictly speaking, Zhang Qiuxi cannot be regarded as a real film practitioner."

At the level of domestic films, if any director or actor dares to mock Hollywood, it will definitely be greeted with boos. Even if most of the scripts of Hollywood blockbusters are relatively weak, and the screenwriters' union goes on strike at two ends in three days, this is not comparable to domestic films.

However, Zhang Qiuxi is different, the novel has long conquered Americans, "Truman's World" and "Strange Heroes in Disguise" have also been successful in North America, and the script of "Hot Questions About Time Travel" is so exquisite that it has the confidence to mock Hollywood. Looking at the whole of Hollywood, there are countless screenwriters who can compete with her.

"This is indeed a science fiction movie, and the issues discussed under the appearance of banter are still very strict, but no one thought that domestic science fiction movies would start with such a unique genre before this."

In fact, some directors have tried science fiction films before, but they are all selling dog meat on the head of a sheep, and the audience and industry insiders do not admit that "Hot Questions about Time Travel" is defined as the first real science fiction film in the Celestial Empire. As for when the first real sci-fi blockbuster will wait, no one can say.

In fact, although no one can deny that this movie is a science fiction film, many viewers still find it unenjoyable, and people are still more accustomed to blockbusters with shocking special effects in large scenes.

In fact, it can be seen that this movie is Zhang Qiuxi's self-entertainment. Independent production, self-investment and self-starring, all seem so casual, the difference is that they entertain themselves at the same time as we, the audience, also high, which many movies can't do. ”

"Watching movies is for entertainment, although I envy Zhang Qiu for their lives so exciting, and I can't wait to join in, but it is enough to see it on the screen and be happy with it, I hope there will be more such self-entertainment in the future."

Before its release, "Hot Questions About Time Travel" was the most talked-about movie, and after its release, the news of this movie was overwhelming, and other films were completely squeezed into the corner.

After a month of release, the box office of the movie failed to exceed 400 million, and on the whole, the box office revenue is only a mid-to-low result, after all, there are several films with a box office of more than one billion, and more than 500 million.

"It's also expected, although this movie is ingenious, but after all, it is only a niche movie, and it is still Xiaoqiu's credit to have such a high box office." Shangguan Jin still said calmly.

If a new group of people starred, this movie would be as successful, but it would not get so much attention, and the box office results would not be so good, this is the appeal of the star.

"Although the box office is much less than that of the disguised monster, we seem to be able to make more money." Ye Qingqing asked: "Have you come out with the account, how much did we earn this time?" ”

"Strange Heroes in Disguise" is a three-party joint investment, and it will be divided into three parts after removing the share of the theater chain, and this time it is an independent investment, and Shuguang Media is also a friendly distribution. Originally, they didn't make much effort, and the movie didn't spend much effort to promote, just to contact the theater chain on their behalf.

In this way, it is equivalent to no distributor involved, Zhang Qiuxi and they can directly share the account with the theater, and more than half of the box office of nearly 400 million is theirs, which is indeed much higher than the domestic box office income of "Strange Heroes in Disguise". R1152
