Chapter 317 Competing for favor, the box office on the first day was 432 million, a new record
July 11, Beijing, Wanda Cinema.
The ticket hall was crowded.
In recent years, the scale of Huaxia theaters has expanded at an extremely alarming rate, and it has been a long time since I have seen this kind of Spring Festival situation in theaters, "Detective Chinatown" and "Transformers 4" have not yet been released, and "Interstellar" is here again, and many fans in the hall are excited about it.
"Three blockbusters are being screened at the same time, there are a lot of good movies this year!"
"Detective Chinatown isn't a blockbuster, is it? It seems that the investment is not much, and it is reluctant to say that the blockbuster is reluctant. β
"Yes, that's three blockbusters in theaters at the same time!"
"It's not right, "Detective Chinatown" and "Transformers 4" are hit movies, yes, "Interstellar" has only been released on the first day, and it's hard to say whether it will be a hit or not."
Listening to the argument between the two, a girl wearing sunglasses and a mask who looked very small and weak on the side couldn't help but interject: "Interstellar must be a hit, haven't you watched Maoyan's real-time box office?" The pre-sale box office of "Interstellar" has reached 300 million, and the first movie with a pre-sale box office of more than 300 million. β
"Really? Didn't pay attention. The two men who were arguing scratched their heads and laughed.
The girl who came with the girl with sunglasses and masks, who should be a "best friend", gently pulled the corner of her partner's clothes, leaned into her ear and whispered: "Sister, be careful to be recognized." β
The girl in sunglasses nodded, and stopped talking to the two boys next to her.
The girl in sunglasses is actually Zhao Liying, as early as three days before the release of "Interstellar", she instructed her assistant to buy two movie tickets.
In fact, she is not too interested in movies such as interstellar and cosmos, but it never hurts to watch it, maybe when she meets the boss one day in the future, she can chat casually and deepen her status in the boss's heart.
If the sycophant is filmed well, and the shooting is substantial, maybe the boss will be happy - yes, the company has a new project recently, and the heroine has not been decided yet, so it's you!
Of course, there are too many people who pat on the back next to the boss, and the probability of being treated differently by patting the ass yourself is not high, but it's better to be prepared than not to be prepared, right? Besides, I watched the movie seriously, even if I was a sycophant, I could say something better than others, "Interstellar" invested more than 150 million US dollars, and the boss and the boss lady personally played the role of the hero and heroine, needless to say, it must be an itch on the boss, and I have to prepare in advance.
Seeing that Zhao Liying no longer answered, the two boys who had just chatted were chatting more energetically. Men, it's all like this, what do you do when there are beautiful women on the side, although Zhao Liying is wearing sunglasses and a mask at the moment, but look at that figure, can this be bad?
"It's a pity, no matter how good "Detective Chinatown" is, after all, it is a small investment, if it is reversed with the schedule of "Interstellar", "Interstellar" will definitely be able to torture "Transformers 4" to death."
"That's it, at the end of last month, as soon as "China" and "Change 4" were released, the two of us watched it, and it was in this theater that it was so lively at that time? Look at it now, it's like the Spring Festival in the past few years, it's too good! β
The two old men also saw it, the two beauties on the side who couldn't see their faces were still Huashang or Li Mufan, in order to show themselves in front of the beauties, wouldn't this be a desperate praise for Huashang and Li Mu?
It's a pity that Zhao Liying didn't talk again this time, and the two brothers couldn't help but be a little disappointed.
After a while, the ticket inspection officially began, Zhao Liying and her assistant took the lead in walking to the ticket inspection channel, and the two guys who had just chatted sat in their seats for a while.
"Eh, look at the back of that beautiful woman just now, why do I feel a little familiar?"
"Back? To tell you the truth, I hear her voice more familiar! β
"You sound familiar, don't you?!"
"Well, but who the hell is it like?"
β¦β¦
"Interstellar" is 170 minutes long, almost three hours, which is a relatively long movie, this kind of film, if the story is more general, or the viewer is not interested in the subject matter, then the viewing process must be very uncomfortable, but it is clear that most of today's audiences are very satisfied with the quality of the film.
After the movie finally ended, most of the audience members who stood up and left looked very excited, and a considerable number of them were discussing the plot with their friends with great interest, and many even asserted that the film was not inferior to "Inception" in any way.
"Inception" is a masterpiece in the hearts of many people, with a Douban score of 9.4 points, ranking 10th in the Douban TOP250, comparing "Interstellar" with "Inception", which shows the extent to which this part of the audience recognizes the quality of the film.
It's still the same pair just now.
"It's beautiful, but it feels a little unfinished."
"Before I came, I thought that I should not be worse than "The Martian", but I didn't expect to directly do it to the ceiling level of Li Mu's works, and it feels better than "Inception"!"
"It's so shocking, it's just that I want to rewatch it right away without being boring at all."
"Wait!"
One of the guys suddenly stopped, and the other was stunned and asked, "What's wrong?" β
"Go back!"
"Go back? Rewatch it right away? If you buy a ticket right away, you probably won't be able to get a good spot, right? β
"No, I mean I think of who those two girls look like!"
"Like whom?"
"Zhao Liying! Let's go, go back and look for it. β
"It's like it's not, what's the use of finding it?"
"It's useless, but you can use 'No one said you looked like Zhao Liying?' Let's talk. β
"People wear masks and sunglasses, it's too far-fetched to say that they look like Zhao Liying, it's better to listen to the voice!"
"Don't say you look at the two of them, the one wearing the mask is called a tight one, maybe it's really Zhao Liying."
"Wake up! How lucky do we have, Zhao Liying took the initiative to chat with the two of us? β
"Where to chat, people just say a word!"
"It's also a chat!"
The two guys walked back as they spoke, and when they came out, they deliberately observed, but the two women had been sitting on the chairs and had not moved, and they were expected to come out last.
The two looked back, and after a while, the one who looked a bit like Zhao Liying came out with his best friend, and one of the guys took the initiative to go up and talk: "Did anyone say that you look very similarββ"
didn't finish a sentence, but the words that followed were swallowed directly.
He didn't watch it carefully when he talked before the movie started, but he watched it carefully, and the more he watched, the more he felt that this person was Zhao Liying.
"Like what?" Zhao Liying was stopped in the way, so she looked at the comer.
"Zhao Liying?"
He said tentatively.
But what's going on in the theater?
It can be said that it is a sea of people!
As soon as the guy said "Zhao Liying", the result immediately attracted the attention of the people around him, and the fans who were in a hurry turned their heads to take a look:
"What? Zhao Liying? Where? β
"Really?"
Many people immediately gathered around.
If you only attract the attention of one or two people, you may be able to walk away without a sound, and you will suddenly be targeted by so many people, and you can't walk away without knowing it.
The theater staff was also taken aback and hurriedly reported, and then the person in charge came with the security guards to maintain order, and the surrounding audience was more and more excited, and the two guys at the beginning were so excited that they couldn't even speak.
The excited audience began to take out their mobile phones to take pictures, Zhao Liying simply admitted her identity, the audience scrambled to ask questions emptyly, and Zhao Liying briefly answered some of the audience.
"Raider, did you just watch Interstellar? Are movies good? How did you come up with the idea to come to see the movie? β
"I watched "Interstellar", the movie is very exciting, I feel that it is the best science fiction movie in the world in recent years, as for why I came to watch the movie? In fact, every movie directed by Li Mu, as long as I am not working, as long as time permits, then I have to go to the theater to watch it as soon as possible, since I have not joined Huashang Media, I like Director Li Mu's movies very much, I like every one, in fact, I have always been a little fan of Director Li Mu! β
After a short answer, Zhao Liying left with her assistant escorted by security guards, and only a few hours later, this matter directly appeared on the news hot search:
[Zhao Liying admits that she is Li Mu's little fan sister! ] γ
Netizens clicked in and saw Zhao Liying's words, some thought Zhao Liying was very cute, and some also thought that what she did this time was too obvious, and it was the best science fiction movie, and she was a little fan girl, a little scheming.
It's okay if you admit that you're a little fan girl, although there is a suspicion of deliberately pleasing you, but it's also reasonable!
The female is Li Mu's little fan sister, is it abnormal? It's not normal!
Besides, "Interstellar" is the best sci-fi movie in recent years, and it is obvious, the sycophants are too obvious, and it feels too licky.
Everyone admits that as long as Li Mu's movies are made, then at least the bottom line is there.
Let's just put it this way, Huashang's movie is definitely not a bad movie, and it is likely to be very exciting, but can it be compared with the top ten of Douban's TOP250?
Bullying us haven't had time to see yet, have they? You need to know that the higher you hold, the worse you fall!
However, soon the Douban score was officially opened to the public.
"Interstellar" - 9.6 points!
There are only four films on the entire Douban list that are in front of this movie.
Douban TOP250 No. 5?
Although most of the ratings in the early stage of the movie's release are inflated, and the later scores are likely to be lowered, but - 9.6 points?
For a while, the hearts of countless viewers who hadn't had time to watch it were warm.
"It's really fake, it's so good?"
"Don't look at "Gravity" and "Frozen" at the box office, but in my heart, director Li Mu's masterpiece has to be "Inception", but "Interstellar" has really become the ceiling of director Li Mu's works?"
"Who said that Zhao Liying's praise was too fake? Everyone touched their conscience and said, is Douban's 9.6 score the best science fiction movie in the world in recent years? β
"The ratings of the water army are piled up, right? How many days does this score last? β
"Even if the score is inflated, even if it is to be reduced by 0.6 points in the later stage, isn't there still 9 points? How many science fiction films in the world have been rated 9 for decades? Don't say anything, buy a ticket now! β
β¦β¦
Kyo City.
"Actually, I've always been a little fan girl of director Li Mu!"
On the sofa, Yang Mi pursed her lips and muttered in a yin and yang tone.
Zhao Liying went to Wanda Cinema early in the morning to watch "Interstellar", can you watch it? And deliberately made people recognized! It's okay to be recognized, and Balabala herself is Li Mu's little fan sister - you are a little fan girl, and I am willing to make a promise!
It's funny, that's Mr. Li, who doesn't like it?
is too scheming, as soon as this Weibo hot search is on, needless to say, Li Mu must think she is very good when she sees it.
"It's like no one can pat on the back!"
Thinking about it, Yang Mi took out her mobile phone and also posted a Weibo:
"Interstellar, the best sci-fi movie in the world!"
You see, how simple is that?
As for the fact that she didn't watch it at all - did she say she did? She just said that it was the best science fiction movie, couldn't it be to listen to others?
β¦β¦
United States.
In the morning, Li Mu opened his eyes and first looked at Liu Yifei, who was sleeping next to him.
"It's so white!"
Saying that, I couldn't help but gently pinch the flesh on her body, it felt very good, Liu Yifei snorted, I didn't wake up, it was quite tempting.
Li Mu couldn't help but pinch the second handful, and then picked up the mobile phone next to the bed.
He and Liu Yifei are here to attend the North American premiere, with such a big market in North America, he and Liu Yifei can't come in person, as for Deng Chao, Hu Jun, Zhao Jinmai, Yi Yang Qianxi and other domestic actors, the North American audience doesn't recognize it, so let's stay in China to promote!
To be honest, he is still a little worried about "Interstellar", just like the setting that love and gravity can travel through dimensions, gravity is okay, what is love? He estimates that these settings will be difficult for some viewers to accept.
In his previous life, Liu Cixin's evaluation of "Inception" and "Gravity" was much higher than that of "Interstellar", as if he also said that he had a lot of things he didn't understand, and said that if "Interstellar" was a movie made by Chinese people, it would most likely fail, and if Americans made obscure films, people would think it was a brain-burning film, and if Chinese people also made the same obscurity, it was very likely to be scolded.
So now the situation assumed by Liu Cixin in the previous life has appeared: the story remains the same, but the main characters have become Chinese, so will the film really be scolded?
Open Douban, the score has come out - 9.6 points?
Li Mu was taken aback when he saw this score, but he didn't expect it to be even higher than the score in his previous life!
He read the comments of netizens again and found that many people were describing them with words like magnificent, incomparable, breathtaking, breathless, ceiling, best, and standing ovation.
Li Mu relaxed a little.
It seems that Huaxia netizens did not give a very low evaluation because the Huaxia director made a somewhat obscure science fiction movie.
Immediately, he noticed the news that Zhao Liying admitted that he was a little fan girl, and then he grinned unconsciously, and after laughing, he looked at Liu Yifei who was still asleep with a little weakness.
The two have just officially received their certificates, and they are overjoyed because Zhao Liying claims to be her little fan sister, which seems too ......?
"Too what? It's so normal! β
If you are not happy, do you still have to cry and mourn? There is a beautiful big star and little fan girl, so is it very aggrieved?
I really feel aggrieved, isn't that pure and sick?
"Anyway, the resources given to Zhao Liying in the past two years are a bit ordinary!"
Li Mu instinctively thought so.
Immediately afterwards, he noticed Yang Mi's Weibo:
"Interstellar, the best sci-fi movie in the world!"
Li Mu was a little surprised, but he didn't expect Yang Mi to like to watch this kind of movie.
casually gave Yang Mi's Weibo a like, but I didn't expect her WeChat prompt to sound after a while.
"Is it dawn in the United States?" It was sent by Yang Mi.
"Just dawned" Li Mu replied, "I didn't expect you to like "Interstellar" so much, after all, some of the concepts in it sound boring, such as the gravitational slingshot effect, spiral descent and deceleration, and singularity. β
On the other side of WeChat, Yang Mi was stunned.
"What did the boss just say? Why do I know every word, but when I put it together, I don't know what it means? Is it related to the movie? β
"Why don't you just say you haven't had time to see it yet?"
"No, that's scheming!"
After thinking for a while, he replied: "Actually, I don't understand these concepts very well, but I feel that it doesn't affect the understanding of the story at all, by the way, the story structure is very ingenious, and the characters are also very three-dimensional." β
After a while, Li Mu's reply came again:
"Speaking of clever structure, it can be regarded as to the point, I think some netizens can't understand what is going on with the sudden appearance of the wormhole, guess that there are aliens, who is helping the earthlings? It feels like I've made it clear in the movie, but there are still so many people who can't understand it, by the way, where do you see where do you realize how black holes come about? Li Mu finally asked again.
To tell the truth, Yang Mi's whole person was stunned.
How did she know where black holes came from? She just watched Zhao Liying call herself a little fan girl and praised "Interstellar" as the best science fiction, she also posted a Weibo, how does she know what "Interstellar" is about?
The next chat between the two was basically that the donkey's lips were not the same as the horse's mouth, so that Li Mu finally had to ask in a puzzled tone:
"Have you ever seen this movie?"
"Huh? I'll ......" Yang Mi held back for a while before returning, "I'll go see it tomorrow!" β
β¦β¦
When it was almost noon in the United States, the box office of "Interstellar" on the first day in the mainland was finally counted, and the data of the special funding office was more accurate than the data calculated by Maoyan itself with a formula.
432 million yuan.
The first film with a box office of more than 400 million on the first day was born!
