It was already past one o'clock in the morning, and the film critic who had watched the midnight movie sat in front of the computer and opened the document.
He is actually used to writing film reviews with a pen.
But now that the Internet is developed, after he finishes writing a film review, he needs to post it to the Internet platform, or magazines and newspapers as soon as possible. Even so, he still hasn't written for a long time.
It has been a long time since a movie has given him such a feeling.
This is a film good enough to win a Berlin Film Festival Golden Bear, just a nomination, totally a Golden Bear bias, a bias against such a good film.
Critics are finally writing.
Not only him, but many film critics, too.
"How is it? Have the box office and film reviews of the midnight show come out? Have you arranged for our film critics to write film reviews?"
Early in the morning, Director Lin Zhou's cell phone rang.
Director Lin Zhou didn't go to sleep until three o'clock in the morning last night. He looked at the time, and it was only six o'clock in the morning.
He put on the glasses on the bedside table, and his voice was a little hoarse after waking up: "No." He sat on the bed and lit a cigarette, took a puff slowly and then exhaled, "I treat it as a work of art, The box office is not the only criterion for judging it. I also want to see how much box office it can win."
This is the second time he has made such a movie after the classic work he made more than ten years ago. Whether it is the script, actors, or timing, everything can't be met.
During the period after the filming, he seemed to be in a busy and ethereal state as if he had finished a major event.
He tried his best at the Berlin Film Festival, but he didn't get the result he wanted.
But he knows that this circle is like this, there will never be a shortage of excellent movies, and there will never be a shortage of capital operations with a deeper background.
"I said why don't you know how to be anxious? I was so anxious that I didn't sleep all night, but I arranged for a few film critics..."
Director Lin Zhou laughed softly.
His voice is very deep and magnetic.
He said: "The total investment of this film is only 20 million, plus publicity and distribution costs, if the box office exceeds 60 million, it will be considered a profit. What's the rush?"
He is not worried about the box office.
"Don't forget the public relations fee for the Berlin Film Festival." The person on the other end of the phone whispered and hung up.
This movie, at least with a box office of over 100 million, can only recover its cost.
On winter mornings, apart from the office workers, the student party who are still on vacation are still nestled in the bed, sleeping in a daze. The first thing to do when waking up is to turn on the phone and read the news that interests you. Or entertainment news, to see if there are any topics of interest to you.
Today's topic and the number one hot search list is #《死霸》电影评##《权霸》Midnight Field Box Office#
Some people are concerned about the real "Prison Bully" box office, and more people are only concerned about Su Xingchen's box office appeal.
For the audience, they don't know the meaning of the midnight box office, they don't pay attention to this, they just pay attention to the film reviews.
If the movie is good, you can ask your boyfriend/girlfriend/girlfriend/friend to watch it tonight.
Movie reviews from magazines and newspapers came out later, and online movie reviews appeared first.
Some film critics post their film reviews on their blogs or social media platforms such as Weibo.
They flipped through the reviews.
Film critics received mixed reviews.
They opened one of the film reviews, "This is a movie that truly reflects social reality."
When I saw the name, I lost interest in the movie.
The film review is very long, and the front is like writing an essay. There is an introduction at the beginning, saying: "What is lacking in the market now is this kind of shocking reality-themed film, which exposes the school violence and family violence that are common in today's society. Violent incidents such as violence, although people knew that such violence existed in society in the past, they did not have such an intuitive shock and heartache. Those children who are persecuted by violence are the future of our country, and those who commit violence may also be the future moths of society, criminals…”
Then there is a long introduction about the plot.
The young man lying on the bed didn't have much patience, so he turned to the end of the movie review and read the summary and rating of the movie review.
It's six past nine!
Looking at other movie reviews, even if they scolded Su Xingchen for ruining the movie, they hired a traffic star to play it. Director Lin Zhou should hire a powerful new-generation actor. This movie is definitely an award-winning movie. At the back, it also scored a high score of 9.4 points.
Basically nothing below nine points.
This is also normal. When the film was first released, in addition to the real film critics' scores, there were also some scores from the film producer.
Later, with more people commenting, the score will slowly drop to a normal level.
They swipe their fingers quickly on the phone, read every movie review roughly, and then they are sure that this movie can be read.
In addition to film critics, there are also many audiences who watched the midnight movie last night gathered on the Internet.
Different from the restraint of film critics, these fans of Zhensu Xingchen, after watching the movie, they blew up the movie on the Internet, and praised the movie "Prison Bully" to the sky, "It must be Look! You'll regret it if you don't!"
As a result, these comments were hacked by black people on the Internet, all of them were: "Hahahahahaha, here we come, the top ten golden sentences to promote the movie 'must watch it, you will regret it if you don't watch it!'"
"After seeing such comments, I don't even want to read them. What should I do? Su Xingchen's dogs, is it really okay for you to brag about your master like this? Wait for the box office to slap you in the face!"
"Shui Jun also posted 666. I always thought that Director Lin was a clear stream in the entertainment circle, and he never hyped. Are you also buying Shui Jun to read comments now?"
"Didn't you see that the sailors are all bragging about their master, Su Xingchen? Don't bragging about Su Xingchen's dog, we won't go to see it no matter what!"
"What's the matter with Director Lin? When did Director Lin hype it up? I haven't seen Director Lin's movie released so much hype before. Isn't it because the starring role of this movie is Su Xingchen? I'm afraid that the movie's box office will be too low~"
"Wait for a slap in the face hahahahahaha, I'm tired of bragging about their master every day, now it's time to test her box office appeal, Star Dogs, remember to watch the movies made by your master, otherwise your face will be swollen Doesn’t it look good~!”
There are also some passers-by, and the comments are very objective: "Although I trust Director Lin very much, I don't believe in the taste of the Berlin Film Festival. I really don't dare to go to see it, what should I do?"
There are also some people who were really given by Amway on the Internet. Regardless of whether it is good or not, they plan to watch it. They have finished watching all the blockbuster movies in the Lunar New Year file. There is no movie to watch, so they can only watch it.
The rest are Su Xingchen's fans.
Su Xingchen's fans don't care if the movie is good or not. They didn't expect this movie at first, but now that the netizens say it's pretty good
look! look! look!
Su Xingchen was snugly sleeping in Cheng Kangyao's arms, but Cheng Kangyao was watching with his love pie.
He never paid attention to this information in the past, but now because of her, he also has some understanding of this information.
Su Xingchen didn't really care about these things, but he couldn't help but care about them.
He rested one arm under Su Xingchen's neck and did not move, for fear that a slight movement of the muscles in his arm would wake her up.
Cheng Kangyao is a dog, very clingy and hot-blooded, he slept late last night.
The young man's physical strength recovered quickly. At this time, he was already full of energy, and she was still asleep.
But she was destined to not sleep well, just after eight o'clock, the phone rang, Su Xingchen stretched out an arm in a daze, Cheng Kangyao had already picked up the phone to answer it, and put it to Su Xingchen's ear.
"Hello?"
"Are you still sleeping? You can actually sleep?"
Su Xingchen was a little impatient: "The point!"
Li Bin was a little helpless, "The box office for the midnight show has already come out."
"oh."
"You really don't worry about it at all." Li Bin was even more helpless, "The box office of the midnight show was 5.89 million."
"Um."
"It's alright, alright, go to sleep." Li Bin was so excited that no one said anything. He, who was originally very excited, calmed down under her calm monosyllable.
5.89 million is not high, but everyone knows that among the 5.89 million, at least 4 million come from Su Xingchen's personal box office appeal.
Now wait for the box office to come out on the first day.
Li Bin put his palms together nervously, put his two thumbs on his lips, kissed and prayed.
There are not many people watching movies in the morning, most of them are still sleeping late, and those who get up early are also office workers, and not many people will go to the cinema to watch movies.
Only a very small part of the audience came here for Su Xingchen, truly generating electricity for love.
Most of them come here in groups with their classmates and friends. Even so, the attendance rate of the cinema in the morning still does not exceed 70%.
This makes them a little worried.
But after watching the movie, they were so excited that they all ran to the Internet to go crazy about Amway, and swiped twice while doing Amway.
Just now, they only paid attention to the plot and completely forgot to watch the beauty of our family's head, so they decided to read it again.
As soon as eleven o'clock arrived, the people in the cinema gradually became lively.
The attendance rate of movie theaters has also increased.
Some people came to buy tickets, but they couldn't buy tickets, so they could only buy tickets for the afternoon or evening.
People kept coming to ask about the movie times and movie tickets of "Prison Bully".
"Prison Bully" has only five movie screenings a day, which is considered a lot among literary films, and it is because the movie is starring Su Xingchen.
But it is still in short supply.
"Manager, everyone outside is watching "Prison Bully". Many people who come to ask questions have no tickets."
The manager also saw the audience waiting in the cinema, "Su Xingchen's box office appeal is quite strong, so I'll apply to the higher-ups to see if we can add more shows."
The manager himself does not have the right to increase the number of sessions, you have to ask the general manager above.
"Yes, a lot."
"Yes, they are all here to watch "Prison Bully"."
"They should all be Su Xingchen fans."
"You know, the charisma of stars is like this. These fans are crazy to support idols."
"Okay, I know, then I'll add three more episodes. "Pandaman" is about to be released, and not many people are watching it, so I'll drop two episodes."
Originally, three additional games were enough, but who knew that there would be more people coming at night!
Until the end of the midnight show, all the shows of "Prison Bully" were sold out, and the attendance rate was basically over 90%, which was already a very high attendance rate.
Until 8 o'clock in the morning the next day, while everyone was waiting anxiously, the first-day box office of "Prison Bully" finally came out!
