Chapter 617: The First Day Box Office

"What the hell?"

"It's a mess."

"What does this have to do with being a god?"

The audience walked out of the screening hall scolding.

On the seats, Tao Heng and Liu Dongdong had subtle expressions.

Tao Heng asked again: "What do you think of this movie?" ”

Liu Dongdong hesitated: "Speaking from my heart, the quality of the movie is still good, the special effects are very good, and the scenes are also very grand, although it is not as good as Hollywood, it can definitely be called a first-class level in domestic films."

After all, this is a movie that is used to praise his son to the left, and the quality can't be any worse. ”

Liu Dongdong did not say the rest of the words.

That is, this movie is extremely inconsistent.

It is said to be a god, it is an Eastern mythology, but the style is completely Western, Western magic and Western science fiction, it feels like a combination of Star Wars and Lord of the Rings.

It's hard to imagine that spaceships and monsters that can't be hit by eight poles will appear in the same movie at the same time.

Another key is that this movie is too messy, at first glance it looks like a god, but in fact, except for the character name has something to do with the god, the others have nothing to do with the god.

What is a god?

It is the dispute between exposition and interception, and it is the immortal thief of saints.

But what about "Legend of the Gods"?

The King and the Demon Black Dragon, the Golden Dragon True Body and the Golden Sword, as well as the outrageous Spirit Clan and the Wing Clan, where can the real gods have these messy things.

And the protagonist doesn't even know who it is.

Let's say it's Ji Fa, except for showing his face in the Armageddon, he was playing soy sauce throughout the whole movie.

Let's say it's thunder, and there is no scene in the final battle.

All in all, it's a word mess.

A big mess.

I don't know what I'm looking at from the beginning to the end.

Liu Dongdong intuitively felt that this movie was going to hit the street, but out of disgust for Xu Nan, he didn't say what was in his heart, but only said half of it.

Tao Heng asked: "What do you think of the box office of this movie?" ”

Liu Dongdong hesitated for a moment: "The quality is still passable, let's see if the audience buys it." ”

Tao Heng shook his head: "I don't think the audience will buy it, it is impossible for there to be a Chinese person who likes this kind of chaotic god of Lord of the Rings and Star Wars." ”

Liu Dongdong said in a deep voice: "Take a look, maybe the audience will like this." ”

With that, the two walked out of the screening room.

Because Liu Dongdong was busy with his new movie, the two did not continue to be together, but separated directly.

Meanwhile.

Another cinema.

Xiang Qiang, the boss of Xinghai Film and Television, also walked out of the screening hall.

His expression was solemn.

"It's a bit of a hassle."

In line with the idea of knowing oneself and knowing one's opponent, Xiang Qiang specially spent money to go to the theater to watch Xu Nan's "Electric Mother".

After watching this movie, his first thought was:

It's a fierce rival.

"Electric Mother" has a bright rhythm, a simple and rough plot, and a large scene and special effects give the audience a shocking visual enjoyment.

In comparison, "Legend of the Gods" has almost no advantages except for a strong lineup.

From the feeling in his heart, Xiang Qiang feels that the quality of "Electric Mother" is stronger than that of "Legend of the Gods".

But this has inspired Xiang Qiang's fighting spirit.

Although the quality of "Electric Mother" is stronger, he will not necessarily lose.

Sometimes, the box office of a movie is not positively correlated with the quality of the movie.

Bad movies, as long as they are well operated, can still have a high box office.

And "Legend of the Gods" is not bad.

For this movie, he specially invited a Hollywood production team to combine the essence of the Lord of the Rings and Star Wars movies to create an oriental magical version of the world of the gods.

He plans to shoot the Fengshen trilogy and make his son Xiangzuo an international superstar.

This kind of movie with a unique style is the first in China, and with a star-studded lineup, Xiang Qiang doesn't think he will fail.

Of course, "Electric Mother" is indeed a formidable enemy, and he has miscalculated a little at this point.

But he won't lose.

Back at the company, Xiang Qiang held a meeting as soon as possible and called the company's executives together.

"Increase the publicity of "Legend of the Gods", add another 30 million to the publicity funds, and I want the entire network to be the praise of "The Legend of the Gods"."

Some executives disagreed.

"Mr. Xiang, a lot of money has been spent on the promotion of "Legend of the Gods", and it is suspected of waste to continue to increase publicity efforts."

Xiang Qiang's face sank: "Everything is as I say, this is a necessary investment." ”

"In addition, when promoting, we should pay attention to ways and methods, pay attention to setting topics, and strive to attract more audiences to the cinema to watch "Legend of the Gods"."

Since the quality of the movie is a little worse, let's find a way to make up for it in publicity.

Xiang Qiang doesn't want to be able to blow up "Electric Mother", as long as he can pull up the box office of "Legend of the Gods".

The current film market is very large, enough to accommodate two hit movies, his requirements are not high, and the box office of "Legend of the Gods" is 2 billion.

The two big productions were released at the same time, and insiders are very concerned about it.

"Has anyone seen the two movies released today, tell me about the quality?"

""Electric Mother" is the sequel to "Staring Man", and the style is similar to "Staring Man", with big scenes and big special effects, I don't expect the box office of this movie to be bad."

"It seems that Xu Nan only has occasional convulsions, and he can still make a good movie."

"I hate him even more, he can make good movies, but he likes to make bad movies."

"Maybe that's the quirk of the big director."

"What about "Legend of the Gods", what about the quality of this movie?"

"The Lord of the Rings and Star Wars hybrid in the skin of a god, this movie stands out for a mess, I don't even know what the story is telling?"

"Ah, doesn't it mean that this movie is a traditional oriental mythology, and I'm still looking forward to watching a traditional mythological blockbuster?"

"The myth is hairy, this has nothing to do with Eastern mythology, pure Western style, just borrowing the skin of the gods, this movie made me watch it so hot, it definitely hit the street."

"It's really fake, the Legend of the Gods is full of praise on the Internet, how can you say it is so unbearable."

Yes, "Legend of the Gods" on the Internet is all praised, and in terms of word-of-mouth, it even surpasses "Electric Mother".

"The Legend of the Gods", a traditional Chinese mythological epic, every frame is traditional oriental culture, full of traditional beauty."

"I was enthusiastic when I watched the whole movie, the myth and the epic are perfectly integrated, this is a Dongfeng aesthetic movie for everyone."

"The setting of the movie is ingenious and imaginative, this is the best movie I have ever seen."

"The actors in this movie are very suitable for the role, and their acting skills are also very exquisite, and they are all actors and actresses."

"I can say that I watched this movie twice in a row, it's so exciting, especially when Xiqi decided to fight back against Chaoge in the end, I stood up directly, and I can't wait to see the next one."

Of course, there are also a lot of bad reviews about "Legend of the Gods" on the Internet.

"Trash movies."

"You told me that this is a god? Where have the expositions and interceptions gone? What the hell is the demon black dragon, there is a spaceship, where did the spaceship come from in the Shang Dynasty. ”

"I know that this is a movie made to praise people, but this scene-stealing is too serious, the protagonist Ji Fa directly became a passerby, and Lei Zhenzi became Lei What the hell."

However, due to the scattered and fragmented negative reviews, and the fact that there are many people praising the movie, the reputation of "Legend of the Gods" has not been greatly affected.

The reputation of "Electric Mother" is also not bad.

"Very good movie."

"Concubine Liu is beautiful and did not disappoint me."

"Although there is no large-scale plot, Concubine Liu is still very beautiful."

"The special effects are very good."

"I was pleasantly surprised by the easter egg of "Stare Man"."

July 20th passed.

The first-day box office of the two films was also quickly counted.

"Legend of the Gods" grossed 75 million on the first day.

The box office of "Electric Mother" on the first day: 137 million.
