Chapter 399

Considering that there are too many blockbusters scheduled in the second half of this year, Lin Mu plans to release "Shocking Demon Thieves" in the first half of the year, and at the same time try to release it in the Southeast Asian market on Children's Day, while China and North America will be released after July.

The publicity team has rushed to Southeast Asian countries to promote "Amazing Demon Thieves".

With the news that "Shocking Demon Thieves" will be released first in Southeast Asia, many Chinese fans rioted: "Why is it no longer released in China first?" ”

"I want to see it sooner, ahhh

However, the plan set by Lin Mu was carefully thought out and weighed several times, and it was impossible to change it.

Time passes day by day, and the release date of "Fast and Furious 3" is gradually approaching. The warm-up of fans and movie theaters has also reached the final stage, and countless fans are looking forward to it.

In order to avoid large-scale queuing in movie theaters, the Internet began to sell tickets online in advance on April 27. In less than four hours on the day of ticket sales, major theaters across the country quickly sold 80% of movie tickets on May 1st!!

In the cinemas of those densely populated cities, all movie tickets are sold out within an hour! Tickets are hard to come by!!

In addition to "Shocking Demon Thieves", there are also Cao Lide's "Contract**" and a "Deadly Magic" movie about magic was released, which ignited the popularity of magic movies in advance.

The movie "Deadly Magic" is relatively simple because of the plot and scenes, so its production time is much shorter than that of "Shocking Demon Thieves", and it was released in advance.

And in the next two months, there will be three more movies about magic released one after another, namely "Master Thief", "The Great Magician", and "Magic Wars". They grabbed ahead of "Shocking Demon Thieves", and then wanted to use Lin Mu's "Shocking Demon Thieves" to increase the box office of their movies, and the abacus can be said to be a good fight.

However, some attentive fans soon discovered a situation, most of the major theaters displayed on the Internet only had "Fast and Furious 3", "Contract**", and "Deadly Magic" during the May Day holiday, and other movies completely disappeared!!

This is a phenomenon that has never happened before!!

What's going on??

"Three new films, accounting for 90% of the country's film scheduling rate!!"

"And the 3D/2D versions of "Fast and Furious 3" occupy 56% of the film scheduling rate in cinemas across the country!! Break the Chinese film and television record! And the previous highest film scheduling rate was only 43%!! ”

"The 3D/2D scheduling rate of "Fast and Furious 2" is more than 3 times that of "Contract**" and "Deadly Magic"!!"

Many media have reported this special situation, which has attracted widespread attention in the industry.

At this time, Cao Lide can be said to be so angry that he was like thunder, when the schedule was set in March, he took a look at the release plan of the national film on May Day, and the blockbuster was zero, and he thought that "Contract**" could pick up a cheap price and get more film scheduling rate, but ......as a result, "Fast and Furious 3" suddenly appeared at the juncture, and even said that it would be released on Labor Day, and snatched a large number of films from "Contract**".

Originally, he was very confident in this movie, and he also gave Huayi's boss a military order.

What now? Looking at the film scheduling rate of only 18%, and then looking at the 56% film scheduling rate of "Fast and Furious 3", Cao Lide spurted out a mouthful of old blood.

At this time, Huayi's boss was talking to his secretary about this: "Do you say that this hope film and television group is intentional?" Why every time we Huayi want to release a movie, I hope that the film and television movies will jump out and be released. ”

Secretary: "Probably not, after all, there is no conflict between our two companies." ”

Mr. Huayi thought about it and nodded: "Indeed." ”

The boss of Huayi finally called Lin Mu and told him about it.

"Wang Dong, here's the way it is......" Lin Mu told Song Tiantian as it was last time, and finally said, "I don't care about other film companies, but I don't allow others to extend their despicable means to my employees." ”

Huayi CEO: "......, okay, I'll give you an explanation for this." ”

――――――――

Time flies, May 1, International Labor Day. The Chinese people once again happily ushered in another holiday.

And on this day, cinemas throughout China ushered in countless enthusiastic fans.

On May 1, cinemas throughout China ushered in countless enthusiastic fans.

Enjoy the energetic roar of the car engine, the thrilling fist to the flesh, the bloody battle, the **fat** beauty, and the hearty super visual stimulation!!

"Fast and Furious" has brought them a magical world that they have never enjoyed since the first part, and this time, they are also firmly convinced that "Fast and Furious 3" will definitely not disappoint them.

Today, there are young people, middle-aged people, couples, friends, and many black people who are blonde or online video chatting but can't see anyone.

All of them are ready, let go of their bodies and minds today, devote themselves to the cinema, enjoy the endless shocking sound effects, and enjoy the exciting and tense visual images......

At 9:30, all the 2D/3D of "Fast and Furious 3" was officially released nationwide, especially the 3D theater was the most popular, and the fans cheered constantly when they entered.

And the fans of the 2D theater can only look at those who enter the 3D theater with hatred, and then hate that they didn't grab the 3D ticket, so they can only choose the 2D sneak peek with pain.

Correspondingly, is the release of "Contract**" and "Deadly Magic", although there are no other movies released at this time, all the audience can only passively squeeze into these three movies, but the attendance rate of these two movies is 40%, which is far from the 100% of "Fast and Furious 3", which is still the case that "Fast and Furious 3" really has no place for other audiences to watch the movie.

Soon there was a heavy and powerful roar in the theater of "Fast and Furious 3", and at the same time, enthusiastic screams and cheers rang out from time to time.

When the people outside the theater heard it, they couldn't help but think about it, and they were still fascinated, and they couldn't wait to rush in and enjoy it.

At this time, reporters sent by many entertainment newspapers and newspapers from all over the world arrived in China, some were outside the theater, and some had already entered the theater to watch the movie, they were all waiting for the release of "Fast and Furious 3" to end, and then send the information of the movie back to China as soon as possible.

With hundreds of millions of crazy fans around the world, Fast & Furious definitely deserves to make them do the same.

A day later, many entertainment newspapers around the world reported on the viewing evaluation of "Fast and Furious 3": it was very good!!

Huaxia mtime time network evaluation 85 points, Rotten Tomatoes freshness 75%!!

Rare high score!!

It's hard to get a high score for a sequel, and it's even harder to get a high freshness. The fact that Fast & Furious 3 can get such a high score and high freshness is enough to prove that it is excellent!!

And the surging queue from the Huaxia Film Market about the scene and the tens of thousands of praises are enough to make countless speed fans around the world feel excited!!

Speed introduced! Speed release!! The call is getting louder and louder!!

More and more qualified issuing companies felt this power and began to take the initiative to send people to Huaxia to discuss the introduction of "Fast and Furious 3", and even took the initiative to reduce the dividends of the party. A good movie doesn't need the producer to pull people at all! And the Fast & Furious franchise has done just that.

In the first ten days, "Fast and Furious 3" won a super high box office of more than 9.5 billion yuan in China, which can be called crazy!! Then on the 15th day, the box office was successfully pushed up to 1.3 billion yuan!!

Although the movie "Contract**" has received a lot of praise, the box office competition is still inevitably affected by "Fast and Furious 3", and in fifteen days, a total of 200 million yuan was obtained, which is not a scumbag compared to "Fast and Furious 3".

Whether it is popular or not, all the reasons are that "Fast and Furious 3" grabbed most of the box office contribution.

Cao Lide, who was originally full of confidence, broke out in anger, and naturally hated Lin Mu, the person who blocked his way up.

And "Deadly Magic", a movie with the first magic gimmick in China, was scolded by countless audiences as soon as it was released.

"This is a magic movie, just a few little magic tricks? It's not as good as the Spring Festival Gala!! ”

"What the hell!! The plot is messy, and the actors are acting dry!! ”

"These actors are all **!!"

And its box office can be said to be miserable, the attendance rate plummeted, and the theater side quickly released the movie on the third day, turning the screen to the extremely popular "Fast and Furious 3".

The failure of "Deadly Magic" also made many people begin to be pessimistic about Lin Mu's "Shocking Demon Thieves", but more people are looking forward to its release even more.

With the popular release of "Fast and Furious 3", the actors in "Fast and Furious 3" have once again become famous, and the search hot word list continues to climb. And in the voting of national idols, their rankings began to soar.

In less than five days, Yang Gang, Song Zheng, Zhang Shi, Du Manni, the four Chinese actors, protagonists and directors jumped to within the top 500 of the national idols at once, and the speed is terrifying and staggering!

And because Lin Mu is the founder and boss of the "Fast and Furious" series, the number of votes is also soaring, once again surpassing the second place that originally surpassed him, and once again coming to the second place of the national idol.

When Lin Mu's supporters saw this, they naturally cheered loudly.

In the industry, though, it's more about jealousy!

"It's ...... for a guy who plays a movie to get second Hehe......"

"It's just a stinky boy, and if you get this second, then there will be a place for us old-timers?"

"Be careful that the higher you stand, the worse you fall!!"

"Uncle De, this person has never honored you, the senior patriarch and other seniors, obviously there is no one in his eyes, this is not a good thing."

"Xiao Yuan, you have to find an opportunity to give him a good chill, lest he think that he will be able to soar after making a few movies."

"Master, I'm awake."

"He's got a good special effects company, and if we can, we might be able to inject money into it."

"He's not going to be so wicked, so he's going to have to get to the bottom of him, or steal his team."

The interests are moving, and when a person gets too much, he is destined to have countless eyes. There is no eternal morality, only eternal interests.

Undercurrents are surging!!

――――――――

On May 16, the people of the Spring Festival Gala group contacted Lin Mu and invited Lin Mu to become the director of the Spring Festival Gala for the sixth time.

Lin Mu still didn't agree immediately: "I still have that condition, I hope to be able to get autonomy." ”

The person who contacted Lin Mu was Dao Feng, the leader of the Spring Festival Gala Group, and Lin Mu had always been a big name, so Dao Feng had to go out himself. Seeing that Lin Mu still insisted, thinking about the leader's instructions, he finally had to compromise: "Director of language programs and director of music programs, you can choose one of the two positions." ”

"Can't be the chief director??"

"The chief director? Sneer~~~" Dao Feng sneered in his heart, but he didn't show it on the surface, but said 'sincerely': "The chief director needs to be determined by the leader, if you want, I can help you apply, but you don't have too much hope." ”

"Oh, then the director of language programs, the chief director, I don't think I'm qualified." Lin Mu thought about it and felt that he had been too smooth recently, and he was a little proud, which was not good.

Dao Feng was relieved to see that Lin Mu agreed. After getting Lin Mu, then the director lineup of the entire Spring Festival Gala program group is almost determined. In June, the final list of directors of the 2012 Spring Festival Gala will probably be available.

――――――――――――

June. There was a big event in the entertainment industry that shook the entire circle.

Southeast Film and Television Group was acquired!!!

A film and television group with a market value of more than $5 billion, more than 2,000 film and television works, tens of thousands of famous characters, and numerous awards has been acquired.

Although the former chairman Huang Zelang has been lying in the hospital for several years and has not improved, although the market value has shrunk, it is also a very terrifying behemoth.

Now it has been acquired, and there has been no leakage of rumors before.

What surprises countless people even more is that its new owner is the Zhou Group, which has no experience in the film and television industry, and holds 70% of the shares, and the chairman is Zhou Tao, the son of the Zhou Group, who is only in his thirties, younger than Lin Mu, the youngest film company owner today.

When Southeast Film and Television Group held a press conference, all major entertainment media and economic media across the country were surging. (To be continued.) )
