Chapter 258: "Wushuang" is released

The news that "The Demon Record of the Great Song Dynasty" was finalized was very popular, and it almost soon became the most watched movie in the entire summer file.

Of course, "Wushuang" has Wei Yifa's participation after all, and after the previous Wanrongli incident, it has received a wave of unexpected promotion.

At present, there are still many people who are concerned.

There is also Xu Ji, as a director, who still attracts many netizens.

After all, the original two fairy swords, as well as the soldier assault and other dramas, made Xu Ji gain a lot of fans as a director.

Although this is the case, no one thinks that this summer file "Wushuang" can have the possibility of being with "Da Song Fu Demon Record".

......

"Smallpox said that he wouldn't participate, but he didn't expect to actually start and didn't intend to show mercy at all!"

Phoenix Entertainment, Li Borui opened his mouth and sighed.

Others may not know, but the two brothers have channels to know that this time "The Demon Record of the Great Song Dynasty" is actually planned to be released during the Spring Festival next year.

After all, with such a large investment, a good schedule is naturally very important.

And although the summer file looks good, it is still not cost-effective for a movie with an investment of more than 300 million.

Everyone can see that the sudden finalization of this blockbuster this time is for Xu Ji's big-screen debut "Wushuang".

"It's good for us."

"Then Xu Ji will focus on the smallpox."

Li Bokai said.

Obviously, this unexpected event was a surprise for them.

At the same time, in the company of Rongcheng Tongji Entertainment, You Man happened to talk about it.

"In my opinion, it's probably because of the incident in Wanrongli."

"Wan Rongli exposed the unspoken rules of smallpox and the existence of such a thing as grabbing resources, and now Wan Rongli is a member of our company, and we have naturally become the target of targeting."

"And it can also divert the public's attention through the finalization of "The Great Song Fu Demon Record".

Hearing You Man's analysis, Xu Ji was actually a little puzzled.

He always feels that every time there will be some trolls of unknown origin on the Internet, deliberately trying to bring rhythm.

And every time the goal is Tongji Entertainment.

All kinds of phenomena show that Tongji Entertainment is being targeted.

Wan Vieng is mostly just a fuse.

"Sister Man, pay more attention."

"I always felt like someone was secretly targeting us."

Xu Ji said.

You Man nodded, now that the scale of Tongji Entertainment is getting bigger and bigger, it is obviously unrealistic to want to be as obscure as before.

......

After the official announcement was finalized, the overwhelming publicity of "The Great Song Fu Demon Record" began.

Almost every three days, the two ends will be on the hot search of Weite.

From the actors' gossip to all kinds of eye-catching gossip, anyway, it's all kinds of eyeballs.

It's July, and there's less than a week left before the release of the two films.

At the same time, the pre-sale of movies on various platforms has also officially begun.

On the day the pre-sale was opened, the box office pre-sale of "The Demon Record of the Great Song Dynasty" had easily exceeded 80 million, and it went directly to break 100 million.

And this is only the first day, and the pre-sale of more than 100 million yuan is basically stable.

As for Xu Ji's "Wushuang", it can exceed 10 million.

The most important thing is that there are too few shows of "Wushuang", and some people who want to buy advance tickets in advance find that there is only one show a day, and some are still full.

In addition, the publicity of "The Demon Record of the Great Song Dynasty" is indeed very good, and the number of films scheduled is close to 30% of the horror.

There was a big gap at the box office for pre-sales.

And in addition to "The Demon Record of the Great Song Dynasty", there are several other movies in the same period of this summer.

Although it was not released on the same day, it was only a few days away in time.

At present, "The Demon Record of the Great Song Dynasty" does have the potential to be the overlord of the next summer file.

......

As the UP master of the film and television area, this year's summer file is so lively, Sang Shaolong himself will naturally not miss it.

Sang Shaolong may watch at least twenty or thirty movies from beginning to end every year.

There are many good works, and there is naturally no shortage of bad movies.

Of course, Sang Shaolong of the essence studio self-media, watching movies is actually part of his work.

For him, especially those movies that are very popular and have a lot of discussions, even if he is not interested, he must watch them in order to make videos.

There are also some films that are not much of a person's attention, and even when they are released, there is no movement, but they will also enter the theater if they are interested in themselves.

In fact, there are a lot of interpretation videos of Sang Shaolong's own literary films, but they are not very popular.

It's not like some hit dramas or movies with a high box office, just a random spit on video data is not good.

In fact, what Sang Shaolong is looking forward to most in this summer is not "The Demon Record of the Great Song Dynasty", but the first feature-length film "Wushuang" directed by Xu Ji.

But what made Sang Shaolong feel very speechless was that the number of scheduled screenings of "Wushuang" was too few.

On the day of the release, there were only four screenings in the theater near where he lived.

Although it is not yet full, the rest of the seats are not particularly good.

So in desperation, Sang Shaolong planned to go and see "The Demon Record of the Great Song Dynasty" first, and he planned to watch it anyway, but he reversed the order.

In fact, Sang Shaolong is not very optimistic about this big production.

The main reason is because of the demon fantasy movie genre, and then it is still placed in the context of ancient times, and the requirements for the script are indeed very high.

Including the world view setting, character characteristics, and most importantly, the storyline, if you are not careful, you will overturn.

Install the latest version. 】

However, judging from the trailer released so far, there should be no money saved in terms of special effects, and the possibility of pulling the crotch in this regard is not high.

Time passed day by day, and Sang Shaolong did not update during this time, and he has been waiting for the premiere of the two movies.

Until the day of July 6th, the two films were launched in major cinemas across the country.

However, there is also a big difference, and the scheduling of the two is not of the same magnitude at all.

Obviously, whether it is someone saying hello to the theater chain, they themselves are actually more optimistic about "The Demon Record of the Great Song Dynasty".

The pre-sale lasted for five days, and the box office of Da Song Fu Demon Record alone had exceeded 160 million.

As for Xu Ji's "Wushuang", it stayed at the box office of about 60 million and did not move.

Part of the reason is that the lack of film scheduling has affected the relevant pre-sale box office.

......

"It looks like there's quite a lot of people."

Sang Shaolong entered the theater and looked around.

The premiere of "The Demon Record of the Great Song Dynasty", for a second-tier city like him, it is obviously a very good thing to be able to have an attendance rate of about four or five percent in front of him.

And it's in the summer season.

Not long after Sang Shaolong sat down, the lights in the movie theater dimmed.

For the opening of Smallpox Entertainment as the producer, Sang Shaolong and the audience are also very familiar with the scene.

Soon, the plot of the movie is officially on track.

All kinds of fantastical monsters and spells look dazzling on the big screen.

Sang Shaolong gave the special effects of this movie a fairly high rating.

It seems that smallpox specially invited two of the top ten special effects studios in China to help, and it did bring a good chemistry.

But that's about it.

As for the plot, characters, and even monsters that he had been looking forward to before, they all seemed a bit clichΓ©.

He had already guessed the direction of the plot when he only saw a third of it.

To sum up, this "Great Song Fu Demon Record" needs special effects, special effects, and special effects, and special effects for the characters.

And even if it's a special effect, although it can be talked about as an excellent work in recent years. But it's definitely not without opponents.

So on the whole, Sang Shaolong is obviously dissatisfied.

Before the movie was finished, he had already begun to take out his tablet and start writing the script for the complaining video.

After watching the movie and walking out of the theater, some audiences are still satisfied and feel that the experience is good.

But some were clearly disappointed.

Obviously, people want to see more than just special effects.

And "The Great Song Fu Demon Record" failed to do it.

It's a pity that I didn't buy the movie tickets for "Wushuang", otherwise Sang Shaolong would have planned to watch two movies in a row.

Now I can only go back for the time being, and wait for the next day's show to watch Xu Ji's "Wushuang".

......

On the day of the release of "The Demon Record of the Great Song Dynasty", he even bought the promotion of the software opening screen directly on Weite.

There are also a lot of entries related to movies on the hot search.

If you click in, you can find that most people are boasting.

Especially in terms of special effects, some marketing trumpets even boasted about it.

But this situation didn't last long, knowing that on the night of the premiere, Smallpox Entertainment still failed to prevent bad reviews from appearing one by one by using the water army to control reviews.

"Hehehe, fans are blowing special effects again? This plot is like, no matter how useful the special effects are? ”

"I just finished watching it, the special effects are really good, but this plot is a little too old-fashioned, right? There were no surprises. ”

"Monsters are raging, the protagonist goes up the mountain to learn spells, and then acts chivalrous, this is the plot of a martial arts film more than ten years ago, right? It's just that the villain has been replaced by a so-called youkai. ”

"The actors don't have any pots, but the two actors and actresses don't have any highlights in it, in this case, fans don't brag about their acting skills, right?"

"Old-fashioned, old-fashioned to the point where my grandmother has to shake her head when she comes to see it."

"The promotion is flying, but can you polish the script well? is blind to such a good actor and has special effects. ”

......

Obviously, although it is indeed useful to control reviews and buy hot searches, the audience is not entirely idiots.

If it used to be, such a level of special effects could really make people ignore the plot.

But now the level of special effects on Blue Star is developing quite fast, and although the special effects can surprise the audience, it is no longer enough for them to ignore the shortcomings of other aspects.

Some self-media, including Sang Shaolong, began to complain about "The Great Song Fu Demon Record".

Although the online score of Petal has not yet been scored, it can be seen that it is basically a two-star evaluation.

Of course, word-of-mouth doesn't seem to be good, but the box office of "The Demon Record of the Great Song Dynasty" is quite good.

Just in time for a large number of students to take off during the summer vacation, plus the original publicity was very hard, in the eighteen hours on the day of the premiere, plus the pre-sale box office, it directly won more than 170 million box office.

Leads all the films in the entire summer file.

As for Xu Ji's "Wushuang", there are only a pitiful more than 20 million.

It is estimated that the box office on the first day will only be in the early 30 million.

Many netizens have also been paying attention to the box office and evaluation of "Wushuang".

Let's not talk about the poor box office, but why are there so few people discussing it online?

"Has anyone ever gone to see 'Mushuang'? I didn't have any money, and I regretted choosing to watch "The Demon Record of the Great Song Dynasty". ”

"I also want to ask how is "Musou"? Is it good-looking? ”

"Tongqing, I haven't bought a ticket yet, I want to see the audience's evaluation before going, and now I've passed "The Demon Record of the Great Song Dynasty"."

......

When many people asked, many people began to complain.

They actually want to watch "Wushuang", after all, Wei Yifa and Xu Ji are still very attractive.

But there are too few films scheduled for "Wushuang", and many people can't buy tickets.

"Absolutely, in my small fifth-tier county, there are only two or three movie theaters, but there are only four shows of "Wushuang" in one day, and two of them are still in the early hours of the morning."

"There are too few films scheduled for "Wushuang", right? I can't buy a ticket if I want to, but it's sold out, can you believe it? ”

"I don't understand, what is this theater party? I can't even buy tickets! ”

......

Looking at the complaints of netizens on the Internet, Sang Shaolong was not surprised.

Even in a second-tier city like him, "Wushuang" can't buy tickets for the premiere day.

As for other small, more remote cities or something, the number of shows is estimated to be even less.

Even having only one game a day is not a special case.

Sang Shaolong actually wanted to see the comments of "Wushuang" on the petal network, but he still held back.

Because it was mentioned on the promotional poster of "Wushuang" before, it is best to avoid being spoiled before watching it, otherwise the fun of watching the movie will be greatly reduced.

Sang Shaolong also hates being spoiled the most.

What's more, the movie genre of "Wushuang" is still a striking suspense film.

......

In Beijing, Fengwei Film Association, as one of the eight major cinema chains in the country, a luxurious-looking office door was pushed open.

"Mr. Qi, look at this data."

The middle-aged man, whose hair was mostly gray, took the folder from the other party.

"82% attendance?"

"Is this data real or fake?"

There was a hint of surprise on the man's originally determined face.

"It's true, after a simple investigation, the possibility of fraud is basically ruled out."

The subordinate replied.

Mr. Qi asked a little puzzled, "Something is wrong." ”

"Then why is the film schedule so low?"

The subordinate hesitated for a moment before continuing:

"It's Vice President Liu."

"It seems that someone has contacted our company before, and asked me to help suppress the film schedule of Xu Ji's "Wushuang".

Mr. Qi obviously frowned a little angrily.

"You tell you to go down and increase the number of films."

"I'm not against selling favors."

"But it can't affect our company to make money!"
