"It's a strange phenomenon, two commercial blockbusters can't do one literary movie, when did the box office of literary films stand so strong?" Za Lang directly posted an article on the headline of its entertainment section "The box office spring of literary films is coming".

"National Day Three-film Competition, Literary Films First Head"

"No matter where the movie is made, there will always be an audience to support it in the cinema, which is the audience trust established by his four excellent films"

"Where: Box Office Leadership Is What I Didn't Expect"

"Where to go: [Scorching Sun]'s first-day box office lead does not mean that the market for literary films has picked up, maybe only a single film is optimistic"

"Expert: Maybe the audience blindly believes in the awards, but it should be commercial films that really make the effort"

"Live for a long time, literary films overwhelm commercial films at the box office"

"Hu Ge's Movie Tests the Waters, Dismal Opening"

"Hu Ge's new movie [The Legend of Young Yue Fei] is less than 1%"

……

What is the situation about the first-day box office phenomenon of the three main competing films in the National Day file that has blown up the entire public opinion? Why does one literary and artistic outweigh two special effects magic movies?

This shouldn't be, it's really been a long time.

So many viewers were curious, and they said that they wanted to go to the cinema to see what "Scorching Sun", which is capable of beating two magical commercial movies, is about.

"I watched the movie, and it turned out that I didn't like to watch literary films, but I just didn't like to watch literary films that I couldn't understand. I understood the previous "Single Zoo", and I also understood "Scorching Sun" this time, including the things that everyone said had depth of thought. I wondered if it was my appreciation of movies that had improved, or if the literary films were just understandable and attractive to the audience? ”

"What a coincidence, I also understand, what the hell is going on? And it's a pleasure to watch. I'm still hovering around in my head with three male actors exploding performances, which is amazing. I finally know why he can win the actor, he won this award, he is not an absolute man at all, the absolute male protagonist should be Deng Chao. ”

"yes, yes, yes, I didn't even recognize where it was. Really, it's a completely different person, and it feels like there's no trace of his real face. The eyes that were scratching around were like a cunning fox that could run away at any moment, and the greasy look on his face, this proper uncle, who was as angry as the taxi driver I saw. ”

"Where, please take my knees, I admit it, you are really an actor. In order to convince others of your acting knowledge, you insisted on getting an actor to prove it, Ling Niu. If our economics teachers are like you, then China will have its first Nobel Prize in economics. It's a pity that my teacher is nothing but neoliberalism, marketization, and the United States. ”

"Haha...... Why doesn't anyone talk about the fact that my Hu Ge's film "The Legend of Young Yue Fei" has so few films scheduled? Shouldn't my Hu Ge be discussed? ”

"Don't make trouble upstairs, Hu Ge is a TV drama actor, so don't come to the movie circle to join in the fun. I'll watch him in a TV series, but he ...... in a movie."

"Why look down on TV actors? Why do you say that TV actors can't act in movies? ”

"Upstairs, have you seen He Fang's analysis of TV drama actors, literary film actors, commercial film actors and variety show coffee? If you read it, you know why, and you won't be howling here. ”

……

In Beijing Juli Film and Television Company, the president Mr. Yang Zhi is not good, what is the situation? Why can a literary film suppress the magic blockbuster that he spent 180 million yuan on? This is a Jet Li movie.

"I want to know why, what is the reason? Is it because we didn't do a good job of publicity? Or is someone else playing tricks? Yang Shi yelled angrily at his subordinates.

"Okay, we'll investigate right away."

In addition to Yang Paper's anger, Wang Changtian also shook his head helplessly at the headquarters of the light, he was not surprised that he had not competed in "The Legend of the White Snake", after all, there was Jet Li.

But this is something he didn't expect to be so far away from "Scorching Sun", he didn't get angry, and he didn't blame others for doing things, because he knew very well that there was really no hands and feet in it.

"Xiao Liu, what is the problem with "Painted Wall"? I think this movie is already very good, why is it still at the bottom? Wang Changtian is reflecting and summarizing.

Xiao Liu thought for a while, "There is no problem with the picture, there is no problem with the actors, and there is no problem with publicity." Netizens reacted more to the story, the story is not enough, the love is not touching enough, the conflict is not fierce enough, and the rhythm of the plot is loose, which is far from "Painted Skin". ”

Wang Changtian nodded after hearing this, "Can Huying's green light system really diagnose the quality of the story?" ”

"I've checked it, and it's really useful, at least the advice given is more pertinent."

"Okay, the script has to go through a green light system before the next movie is filmed, and then our director has to shoot according to the schedule. The level of these directors in Hong Kong will also fluctuate, and they may not be reliable. ”

"By the way, "Painted Wall" must step up publicity and do our best to do the best at the box office, which is also a time to test our distribution ability."

"Okay, Mr. Wang."

Wang Changtian took out a cigarette from the cigarette case on the table and lit it, and then waved his hand at Xiao Liu.

……

He Fang and his entourage ran through Guangzhou in one day, and then got into a business car at ten o'clock in the evening, and the car went straight from Guangzhou to Shenzhen.

It's a really tiring day, the audience is very enthusiastic, although it is a gathering place for migrant workers, but the enthusiasm for movies is very high.

Moreover, they are very simple, because nearly one-third of the migrant workers here are Hunanese, so the support for He Fang's film is more obvious.

With a geographical advantage, this can be regarded as a scoring item.

When they arrived at the Shangri-La Hotel in Luohu, Shenzhen, it was almost twelve o'clock, and everyone had nothing to say.

Tomorrow is the first day of the National Day, and the time to see the real chapter is coming. The two days of September 29 and September 30 can only be regarded as a warm-up, and the real National Day file is the seven days of the National Day.

It was at this time that he received the box office data on September 30, or the first, and now he won't even know where he is, it's not that he has no confidence in "Scorching Sun", but a literary film presses two commercial films of good quality, which ......

Did you travel back in time and change the world? Let the audience in this time and space like literary films? It shouldn't be.

What does "Sunburning" appeal to young people? Deng Chao kissed Wang Leehom excitedly? Or is it the woman at the beginning of the film? Or does the audience like to watch the three actors? Or did the movie move the audience?

But ...... comedy elements of "The Legend of the White Snake", the magical elements, and Li Lianzhuo's acting kung fu, aren't these fragrant?

It stands to reason that it's better than the three men in "Sunburning" who outwits each other, right?

There is also "Painted Wall", which is also a magic movie, a group of beauties of warblers and swallows, aren't they fragrant? Isn't it pretty?

But the facts are in front of him, so that He Fang has to believe that this is true.

September 30 box office rankings:

"Scorching Sun", 28.5% of the film schedule, box office 17.88 million.

"The Legend of the White Snake", 32% of the films, with a box office of 12.46 million.

"Painted Wall", 26% of the films, box office 11.57 million.

……

He really doesn't understand why, why does the audience like "Scorching Sun"?

Not only he has this doubt, but also the public opinion media, which is not on October 1, when the Shenzhen MixC Golden Harvest Cinema did a roadshow, the reporter asked where it was.

"Director He, why is "Scorching Sun" higher at the box office than the other two movies, is it because the audience loves to watch literary films now?"

"You ask me, but I don't know who to ask, and I've thought about it. In terms of hardware conditions, whether in terms of production, cast, or subject matter, "The Legend of the White Snake" and "Painted Wall" are better than "Scorching Sun". But movies don't win by putting hardware conditions, just like football, if you compare the value to determine who wins, there will be no suspense in the football game. ”

"I thought about it for a night last night, maybe there are three reasons, one is that the story of "Scorching Sun" may be more tense and exciting, the second is that the performance makes the audience feel that the wit fight of the three men looks more enjoyable, and the third is that the award and word of mouth may be one of the elements chosen by the audience."

He Fang doesn't know how to explain it, so he can only explain it from these three points and it is relatively reliable.

"Then how much box office do you think "Scorching Heart" will take with the current development?"

He Fang thought for a while, "I predicted that it would be about 200 million, and if I was lucky, it would be 300 million." But now it's hard to say if it's the leader, because with such a big schedule as the National Day file, if the box office of the leading movie is less than 500 million, it won't be good. ”

He Fang's meaning is very clear, "Scorching Sun" can get more than 500 million box office.

But this is a literary film, when did a literary film get such a high box office?

It's crazy, it's almost rare.

"Who gave the reason for [Scorching Sun] to lead the box office of the National Day stalls"

"Who predicts that [Scorching Sun] can get 500 million box office"

"The highest-grossing literary film in history is released? 》

Do you really want to make history at the box office of literary films? 》

……

Where's remarks immediately resounded in public opinion, but is that the end of the matter? Of course not.

"Yang Paper: I have never seen a literary film in the global film market that can lead the box office of an important schedule"

"Cheng Xiaodong: This box office development is very surprising to me, I don't think my movie is bad"

"Jet Li: It's been a long time since a movie has been released in China, and I feel that the domestic market has changed so much"

"Film Expert: Domestic Films Still Have to Be Fair, Not Both Athletes and Referees, This Will Cause Unfair Film Scheduling and Box Office Stealing"

……

"Ah, what does the crew of "The Legend of the White Snake" mean? Are they going to question the box office of "Sunburning"? ”

"This crew is really disgusting, their own movies are not good, and they blame others in a weird way, I really want to find a reason to go to Douban to see the audience's comments. Let's see how many points you score in "Scorching Sun", how many points you score in "The Legend of the White Snake", and how the following audience evaluates. ”

"It's not really going to be boring, is it? After all, the Lake Cinema Line is now the largest cinema line in China in terms of quantity, and the relationship between He Fang and Lake Shadow is needless to say, right? ”

"Upstairs, I believe that they are playing some tricks on commercial films, but they deliberately pushed a literary film to become the first at the box office, which is like a lice on the monk's head."

"What if people play with the lights and it's dark? If you want to be fair and just, you must put an end to the collusion between athletes and referees. ”

"Yes, to insist on opposing both refereeing and being an athlete is a violation of the rules."

"Where did the Lake Shadow Group mess up, and their own family was found to be playing cats......"

……

There was a crooked wind blowing in public opinion, and at the same time, it also made the media reporters like sharks smelling blood, and then quickly went to interview relevant people.

He Fang has never had time to watch the news, and the roadshow is very tired, who still has time to swipe his mobile phone.

So in the face of reporters' questions, He Fang didn't react for a while, but as a person in the entertainment industry, he must first learn to deal with emergencies.

"You said that the crew of "The Legend of the White Snake" questioned the box office of "Scorching Sun" and the Lake Cinema Line?" He shook his head after repeatedly confirming the reporter's question.

"Impossible, I don't believe that this is what the crew of "The Legend of the White Snake" said, you reporters are just shifting flowers, misinterpreting the original meaning, and maliciously leading the war. No one in the crew of "The Legend of the White Snake" who is still a little sensible will say this, because everyone is talking about evidence, and the circle is not big, so you can find out what is going on. ”

"Of course, since public opinion has a tendency to suspect that the Lake Film Group and the crew of "Scorching Sun" are cooperating in trouble, then I promise the public that the tickets for the Lake Film Cinema Line are open and can be verified at any time. Don't say anything that would cover up the evidence, as long as someone wants any data, it can be open for everyone to see. ”

"Of course, if there are still people who are worried that we will cooperate to do things, then you propose a verification method, as long as it does not violate the principle, you can follow your method to investigate."

"If the problem is really found, if the problem of collusion between the Lake Cinema Line and "Scorching Sun" is not ironic, there must be a problem with the fire culture and the problem of the Lake Cinema Line, and there is also the problem of lax supervision by the superior units. I welcome everyone to verify and help the crew of "Scorching Sun" and Lake Film Group prove their innocence. ”

"There is an account that is easy to calculate, that is, how much pros and cons we have gained from stealing the box office and the consequences to Tuanhuo Culture and Huying Group, as long as we calculate this, we can know whether we need to do this."

"If we really play tricks, then the consequences of the Lake Cinema Line will be at least hundreds of millions or even billions, and "Scorching Sun" will also be heavily fined. Of course, the loss of money is secondary, and the most important thing is the collapse of reputation, which is estimated to be hundreds of millions of yuan. But how much profit can you make from stealing the box office? At most, it's tens of millions, right? ”

"For the sake of tens of millions of benefits, do things that may cause hundreds of millions of losses? Besides, I don't think that "Scorching Sun" can make a fortune if it wins the National Day box office champion, Tuanhuo Culture and Huying Group, and this benefit is worth the big risk. ”

He Fang's words could convince the media reporters and the audience, and everyone applauded.

"Where is the director, then you mean that the crew of "The Legend of the White Snake" is spreading rumors?" A reporter continued to ask.

"As I just said, I don't believe this is a question raised by the crew of "The Legend of the White Snake". Because there are no such stupid people in the entertainment industry, unless they really want to stigmatize themselves in the entertainment industry. ”

He Fang immediately appealed to the media, and then he also called Zhang Qian to confirm the matter, and asked Tuanhuo Company and Huying Group to issue a statement, welcoming all walks of life to verify.

"Look at He Fang's attitude, it really doesn't look like he's tired."

"Who knows? Many corrupt officials shouted anti-corruption before they were arrested. Maybe they're confident that others won't be able to find out? Few of these rentiers are true. ”

"Tsk, according to what the upstairs said, there is nothing to be trusted in the bottom of the world. The government is not credible, the rentier class is not credible, and people are not trustworthy, is that understandable, and what you say is not credible? Could it be that you are just spreading rumors with rhythm? ”

"What's the benefit of your whitewashing? Did he send you five cents? ”

"Yo, you still know five cents, so are you receiving five cents to lead the rhythm?"

……

Of course, it is not only He Fang and Huying and Tuanhuo Culture who are pulled into it, but also the heads of companies like Guangguang who also have movies released on the National Day.

The reporter stopped Wang Changtian from asking this question.

"Fake? Says who? We've been in the circle for so many years, and we've been working with Lake Cinema Line for so long, I don't know if they're going to fake it? Some layman issuers should not speculate here. ”

"There is no literary film in the world that dominates the box office? I know, but it's not like you haven't noticed it before, and it can't happen now. We have "Painted Wall" in the theater, and I haven't questioned it, because this kind of questioning is too layman and will be laughed at. The quality of the movie "Scorching Sun" is good, and the box office is high, that is the ability, don't think that people are fake when the box office is good, how to make movies with this mentality? ”

Wang Changtian's words immediately calmed down some somewhat questioning public opinion a little, because what Wang Changtian said made sense.

Mr. Wang, including Huayi, was also stopped by reporters to ask this question.

"Some people take it for granted that if Huying wants to fake, then the consequence they face is that all the theaters will be fake. The movie Huying released by your group today is fake, so can the movie on my Huayi be faked the day after tomorrow? Or is Wanda helping to fake? Isn't that market all in chaos? Don't say that the top doesn't allow this to happen, and the peers in the entire industry won't allow it to happen. Therefore, the person who raises this kind of question is a layman, a person who cannot afford to lose. ”

Mr. Wang's words made public opinion even more normal, and at this time, the crew of "The Legend of the White Snake" also came out to refute the rumors and issued a statement on Weibo.

"Some people maliciously rumor that our "Legend of the White Snake" crew questioned the collusion between the Lake Cinema Line and the crew of "Scorching Sun" to falsify, which is pure rumor. Please give us some evidence of which of us has said such a thing, or expressed such a meaning? Please don't slander us. ”

"In the box office market, "The Legend of the White Snake" temporarily lags behind "Sunburn Heart", which only proves that we are not doing well enough in some places, which is a healthy competition. I believe that in the next few days we will do better and then show our strength. Healthy competition, friendship and mutual assistance are our common principles for safeguarding the Chinese film market, please don't believe the rumors. Therefore, we are deeply sorry for the adverse impact of this rumor on the crew of "Sunburn Heart" and the Lake Cinema Line, and we are also victims of this rumor. ”

This statement was issued very late, just before the early morning of October 1.

At this time, they had already been brought to Shanghai, Huang Yi's hometown, and Huang Yi had to invite everyone to dinner. So they went to a local restaurant in an alley, and it was hard to describe what they were eating.

No way, people who are used to eating spicy dishes don't feel much taste at other dishes unless they don't have much aversion to dishes such as particularly fresh seafood.

A few people ate late and were about to go back, and He Fang received box office information.

The box office on the first day of the National Day stalls on October 1st:

"Scorching Sun", 29% of the films, box office 34.74 million.

"The Legend of the White Snake", 31% of the film is scheduled, and the box office is 17.07 million.

"Painted Wall", 27% of the films, box office 16.87 million.

……

Tsk, this gap has directly doubled, how can this be played? "The Legend of the White Snake" and "The Painted Wall" are too crotch-pulling, right?

"Hey, Director He, the crew of "The Legend of the White Snake" issued a statement......"
