Chapter 339: A Perfect Ending

Mute!

Yes, almost all the Chinese people who pay attention to "The Legend of Sword and Heaven" and "Painted Skin" have become mute and completely speechless, because they are already stupid, their minds are blank, and their consciousness of speaking is gone.

35 million box office in a single day, which is a good result for any other film.

However, when it comes to the film "The Legend of Sword and Heaven", which was full of momentum two days ago, this data is quite cold and embarrassing.

On the first day, 120 million.

The next day, 95 million!

But on the third day, 35 million, a drop of two-thirds, this can no longer be said to be diving, and it is not an exaggeration to say that it is not an exaggeration to say that it jumped off a building.

In this case, how not to embarrass those who cheer for "The Legend of Sword and Heaven"? How not to shame those who satirize "Painted Skin" as inferior to "The Legend of Sword and Heaven"? And how not to make those who support "Painted Skin" and "The Legend of Sword and Heaven" speechless?

With this kind of box office result like jumping off a building, they don't know what to say at all.

Keep singing hymns? This is also too shameless!

Discredit? This position has changed too quickly, and it is not like this to be a traitor, at least you have to shout a few times and wait and see for a while.

Since this is the case, then it is better to ride the wall neutrally, and if you don't rely on either end, then neither side will be offended.

Of course, there are also people who want to continue to sing praises for "The Legend of Heavenly Sword", and then they spoke in a tone ten times more euphemistic than the previous two days, and a cautious but optimistic said: "This is normal, it doesn't matter, the explosion of passion is always instantaneous, and the aftertaste takes time, so the box office will be better." A cautious but nonchalant said: "It's too early to say that "The Legend of Sword and Heaven" hit the street at the box office. There is no hurry. ”

Unlike the first, second, and third days of release, on the fourth day, the evaluation of "The Legend of Sword and Heaven" as a bad movie on the Internet began to rise surgingly.

"What's left besides special effects?"

"A garbage movie, a waste of my movie tickets!"

"The spicy one next door, except for the special effects, the others are all flying."

"This is a film dedicated to special effects, and the other is to look at Lin Yun-fat's old face, Han Bai's face, Zhao Ziyi's meat, and nothing else."

……

The negative reviews are noisy, and people in the film industry and various media are silent. Seeing that Wang Baogang and Glorious Media almost urinated, Zhao Xingchi was relieved, but also had an immoral schadenfreude mentality.

"Hey, anyway, "Painted Skin" and "The Legend of Sword and Heaven" are allies. It's so immoral for me to gloat like this. That's not right to drop! Stephen Zhao warned himself. But the people of Red Star Media Company began to feel that the boss's mood was much better from this day, and a strange smile appeared on his face from time to time, as if he was a fox who had successfully stolen chickens.

On December 5th, the box office data of the fourth day of "The Legend of Sword and Heaven" was counted: 25 million!

As soon as this data came out, everyone was silent. Those who were still defending "The Legend of Sword and Heaven" yesterday are also silent, because everyone knows what this box office data represents.

"The Legend of Heavenly Sword" is going to be miserable!

said that it would not be enough to hit the street, because it has come down in the past four days. The cumulative box office of "The Legend of Sword and Heaven" has reached 275 million, and the single-day box office has reached 25 million, which is not bad, and it is worth continuing to be released on a large scale.

But it is not appropriate to say that there is no street hit, because the production cost of "The Legend of Sword and Sword" is as high as 200 million, plus the publicity cost of 150 million, the total investment is more than 350 million. According to the 40% sharing ratio of producers, distributors and theaters, the total box office of "The Legend of Sword and Heaven" needs nearly 900 million to barely keep its capital.

One is 275 million, and the other is 900 million, which is too far away.

The most important thing is that the disadvantaged "Painted Skin" has become Zhuyu in the front, and the dominant "The Legend of Sword and Heaven" can't become a broken brick in the back, right?

According to the prediction in advance, the box office of "The Legend of Sword and Heaven" should be 1 billion, and the box office of "Painted Skin" should be 300 million ~ 400 million, a difference of three times.

But now, the total box office of "Painted Skin" has gone to 800 million, and "The Legend of Sword and Sword" is still working hard for 300 million, which is completely reversed!

There is a huge gap between the ideal and the reality, and in the face of the skinny reality, any plump ideal will shrink rapidly.

Subvert the three views!

Everyone was amazed!

"This is not scientific, ahh......h

Beijing, Glorious Media Company.

"How so? Malegobi! For the first time in his life, Wang Baogang, a great director who has always appeared in front of everyone, broke out with a foul language, grabbed the white hair on his head in distress and asked, "What the hell is going on?" The movie football is too slippery, and it has no sense of direction at all! The quality of "Painted Skin" is not as good as "The Legend of Sword and Heaven" in any aspect, why is it so much better than "The Legend of Sword and Heaven"? I'm not even better than a hairy boy who has just entered the film industry? ”

Wang Baogang pondered hard what caused the current box office jump.

As an international director who has been mixed in the circle for so many years, Wang Baogang knows that judging from the current box office performance of "The Legend of Sword and Heaven", although there are more than 20 million in a single day box office, the box office will definitely continue to jump in the future, and theater companies will not hesitate to reduce the number of films. Shopping malls are like battlefields, there is no friendship at all, even if it is him Wang Baogang, in front of interests, the cinema chain dealer will not sell his face.

Of course, with Wang Baogang's current status, he has not lost much if the box office fails, he has long passed the age of chasing the box office, and what he is worried about and thinking about now is not the problem of the box office, but the problem of the Chinese film market.

How can we make a blockbuster that attaches equal importance to business and art in China?

For a long time, directors in China have been exploring this problem, integrating business and art, which is both artistic and profitable.

"Heaven and Earth" is Wang Baogang's exploratory work, but unfortunately it failed. This time he made a comeback and filmed "The Legend of Heavenly Sword", thinking that he had found a balance.

The box office exceeded 100 million on the first day, and the amazing result of the box office exceeding 200 million in two days made Wang Baogang more confident in himself.

But now it seems that he has not found a balance between business and art, or rather he has found a part of it, and a part of it has not been found.

"Baosteel, it's okay, we can take our time. And the performance of the film "The Legend of Heavenly Sword" is also not bad, coupled with the overseas box office, copyright operation and sales of various channels, the company should be able to protect its capital. Li Guangrong, the boss of Glorious Media, comforted on the side, although he regretted it in his heart: "I thought I had picked up a treasure, but I didn't expect to have influence and fame." But the film made is not a blockbuster, this is completely fucking chicken ribs. ”

Chicken. It tastes bad. But it's a pity to lose it.

Wang Baogang, a famous international director, and their glorious media co-produced a movie, which undoubtedly played a huge role in the promotion of glorious media, making glorious media suddenly become a film and television company known to the people of the whole country, and even crossed the ocean and spread to the whole world. In this regard, Wang Baogang is very useful to Glorious Media.

But on the one hand. Investing 350 million to make a movie, not only did it not make any money, but the company had to lose money, which was completely burdensome to Glorious Media.

So. Li Guangrong immediately associated "Wang Baogang" and "chicken ribs" together, but he did not wronged Wang Baogang.

"Thank you." Wang Baogang said with emotion that he could understand Li Guangrong's thoughts, and he couldn't help but be a little ashamed.

Magic City, Red Star Media Company.

"Our people are really happy today, our people are really happy today, we are so happy today, we are so happy today......" The box office of "The Legend of Heavenly Sword" fell for several days, and Stephen Zhao's mood got better inexplicably, and he went to work humming a little song when he went to work.

Everyone in the company looked at him in amazement and speechlessness, and they didn't understand what he was happy about.

Qian Minli didn't understand either, and what made her even more unclear was that what the little song that Zhao Xingchi was humming in his mouth was, it felt quite emotional, and there was an inexplicable sense of joy: "I said, what is the name of the song you hum?" Are you writing songs again? ”

Zhao Xingchi went to the boss's chair and replied casually: "We people are really happy today." ”

"We're really happy today?"

Qian Minli was speechless for a moment, and then she "giggled" and laughed, laughing wildly: "I said you, why are you so clever?" What kind of songs are they composed, they make people laugh when they hear the name. Are you having a good time? Say it and I'll listen to it and help you share it. ”

"Nothing, just a funny joke that came to mind." Zhao Xingchi coughed, casually lied and fooled the past, thinking: "Did I tell you that I am gloating, "The Legend of Sword and Heaven" can't compare to my "Painted Skin"? It's so unstylish! ”

Qian Minli's eyes flashed, and she didn't ask again, but turned to another thing: "Tianfeng TV's "Beauty Appointment" column group has arranged a time, and it is scheduled for the 16th of this month, that is, next Friday, you see?" ”

"Next Friday? No problem. Stephen Zhao thought about it and nodded in agreement.

Due to the unexpected jump at the box office of "The Legend of Sword and Heaven", "Painted Skin" was not drawn in advance and is still being released, but the number of films scheduled continues to shrink.

At the same time, although the box office performance of "Painted Skin" has shrunk seriously, it is unexpectedly strong, and in the first four days of the release of "The Legend of Sword and Sword", it still maintained a box office of nearly 10 million per day, which shocked many people's jaws.

On December 6th, this day is Tuesday, the eighth day of the 11th lunar month, there is no festival on this day, and nothing major has happened in the world.

However, in China, all those who follow the film market remember this day, because it created an unprecedented, but incomparably absurd miracle.

The box office of "The Legend of Sword and Heaven" dived again, only winning 15 million.

However, "Painted Skin", which is close to the next painting, suddenly exploded 16 million on this day, surpassing!

"Is this world a stroke messy?" Such a thought subconsciously appeared in everyone's minds.

However, regardless of whether this world is messy or not, it is true that many people have seen this strange situation and have a messy stroke.

Unbelievable!

"Painted Skin", which is close to the next painting, actually beat "The Legend of Sword and Heaven" at the box office, which has just been released for less than 6 days, and surpassed the box office of 1 million. Although 1 million is insignificant, it is also surpassed, which also means that "The Legend of Sword and Heaven" completely lost to "Painted Skin".

"Painted Skin", under the gaze of many complicated eyes, made a gorgeous turn, and trampled the blockbuster "The Legend of Heavenly Sword", which had an advantage before the release!

All kinds of media are as crazy as chicken blood!

Hundreds of millions of netizens are crazy!

""Painted Skin" defeated "The Legend of Sword and Heaven", and proved who is the real king with facts!"

"The Legend of Sword and Heaven" took a big plunge at the box office, losing to the upcoming "Painted Skin"!"

""Painted Skin" VS "The Legend of Heavenly Sword", 16 million VS 15 million, who is the winner?"

"What a! It's only been six days since it was released, and the box office of "The Legend of Sword and Heaven" is as bad as shit, two days ago, it was still a cowhide to break 10 box office, but I didn't expect the box office on the sixth day to lose to "Painted Skin", which is really bad, and the scum with only five combat effectiveness is scum! ”

""Painted Skin" is really a bunker, it's about to be painted, and the single-day box office can actually overturn "The Legend of Sword and Sword", and the combat effectiveness is really domineering, and it is unstoppable!"

"A cowhide coaxed that he wanted to break the box office of 1 billion, but it turned out to be a problem to break 400 million; A humble statement said that it was satisfied with a box office of 300 million to 400 million, but the box office went to 1 billion. Although the world is unpredictable and full of emotion, I have to say, don't be arrogant, arrogant was split by the audience! ”

……

Some media did a detailed investigation, and found such a conclusion with a smile: "I originally thought that "The Legend of Sword and Heaven" was very good, so I went to see it, but I didn't expect it to be a mess, all relying on 3D special effects and Wang Baogang to sell fame, Lin Yun-fat to sell face, Zhao Ziyi to sell meat, Han Bai to sell face to make money at the box office, the plot is cloudy and foggy, I don't know what Lu Dao is talking about, it is far worse than "Painted Skin", so I turned around and watched "Painted Skin" again! ”

The reason for the weird box office performance came out: because "The Legend of Sword and Heaven" was poor, I felt that the previous average "Painted Skin" was actually quite good-looking, so I went back and rewatched "Painted Skin".

"Sure enough, this is a worse world, I don't want to be how good I am, as long as others are worse than me, I will win." After the results of the investigation came out, netizens ridiculed.

Of course, for the producers and enthusiasts of "The Legend of Sword and Heaven", this survey result made them feel like a mourner.

The sky-defying box office growth of "Painted Skin" is completely jumping on the corpse of "The Legend of Sword and Heaven".

"It's too bullying!" Many enthusiasts are either indignant or tearful at the thought.

"Am I easy?" Director Wang Baogang, who is in the Beijing Glorious Media Company, squeezed out a few tears in an interview with the media, he was too sad.

On December 14th, "Painted Skin" was released for a month and 30 days as scheduled, and the results at the end were perfect.

Total box office in the mainland: 935 million! (To be continued......)
