On the first day of the holiday, the fight that belongs to the New Year's Day movie file officially kicked off.
As the lead actor of "Night Walker", Cai Yishu still has a movie road show announcement tonight, so just after twelve o'clock at noon, the working team behind him arrived at home.
Cai Yishu took a sip of coffee and asked concerned, "How is the box office going now?"
"Sixty-five million! It's definitely no problem to break 100 million on the day of the release." The staff handed over the idea equipment, looking excited.
It's only been half a day since the first day, and the box office is already so good!
You know, many people will stay in bed during the holidays, and this afternoon and evening is the peak of the traffic explosion, which is just over 100 million, so there must be no problem.
Cai Yishu proudly curled his lips, scanning the real-time box office updates on the device.
Director Xu Cheng's "Flower Demon" can still be played, and it was released one day earlier than them. Now it has broken through 200 million smoothly, and today it must be heading for 300 million.
The light comedy movie "The Big Bad Man", which was also released at zero o'clock, had a box office of 60.3 million, and they were biting tightly.
A staff member said, "I guess the goal of "The Big Bad Man" is to compete with us for the second place."
Cai Yishu sneered disdainfully, "Second? Just relying on their comedy? Also cooperate with us?"
"Director Song Yonghui's comedy routines haven't changed for three or four years. The audience should have been tired of watching them. You all remember, our goal is not to compete with him for second place, but to compete with director Xu Cheng's "" "Flower Fairy" fights for the championship!"
"Give me something to do! Do you understand?"
The staff looked at each other and nodded silently.
Cai Yishu has been going smoothly since his debut, but his biggest setback was losing his position as the leading actor in "Time Lobbyist" and being held back by the company for a while.
However, Cai Yishu's luck was good. Originally, Bian Jin was chosen as the lead actor in "Detective Night Walker", but when the other party approached the signing of the contract, there was a public opinion of "Fanwei Cafe".
The producer gave up the original male lead, Bian Jin, who happened to be picked up by them.
The production team of "Detective Night Walker" is good, and the momentum after the early publicity is also good.
Cai Yishu's temperament was originally arrogant and arrogant, but now he couldn't hide the pride in his heart, and wished he could raise his head to the sky and live his life.
The comedies directed by Song Yonghui are recognized as top-notch in the industry, and the leading actor Chen Ming is also called the "King of Comedy" of the new generation by the audience. This pair of partners is actually very good.
Also, Xu Cheng is a famous director, and the leading actors of "Flower Demon" are all capable, so he has become a target that can be easily surpassed
It's okay to be open-mouthed in front of your team members, because you are afraid that one day you will slip up and offend someone who shouldn't be offended.
Cai Yishu obviously didn't know the real thoughts of others, his eyes slid down and landed on the real-time box office of "Time Talker".
So far, the real-time box office has not reached 40 million? And this amount also includes the previous pre-sale box office.
Seeing this scene, Cai Yishu sneered even more clearly, "Tsk, garbage is indeed garbage."
"Brother Shu, after the premiere of "The Time Talker" last night, the online reviews were very good. Except for ordinary audiences, the critics almost all praised it."
The staff thought for a while, and truthfully told the trend of the Internet.
"All compliments?" Cai Yishu frowned, feeling incredible.
how can that be
He asked You Meng to arrange some film critics to criticize, just waiting to destroy the movie reputation of "Time Lobbyist" in the first place!
The staff didn't dare to say much, so they quickly searched out the comments of several film critics, "Brother Shu, can you take a look?"
@老洛说电影: "In recent years, there have been endless movies about youth, but "Time Talker" is definitely the TOP1 I have watched in the past five years!
I heard that the screenwriter is a newcomer? But the overall plot is controlled by Teacher Ji Mingyue.
The content of the movie is so ingeniously conceived that a heart booster can be injected within 30 seconds of the opening scene. The love line is not bloody at all, it is so sweet and cruel that it is hard to breathe, and the friendship line of the five-person group is also a must. .
Originally, I couldn't figure out how Wang Zhang, a director who had a background in suspense films, would come to direct youth films? But after watching the movie, I understood.
The lines of time and space reincarnation are arranged tightly without making people feel lengthy. Until the last moment, you don't know how the reversal will happen! Strong push! "
@毒言电视剧场: "I won't say much about the plot, good-looking is not enough to describe the degree of shock, the five main actors are too surprising, all the character creation is above the passing line, no one is holding back.
Ji Li has to be named as the performer, and his empathy ability is even better than the previous roles.
How do you say something in the game? Play the highest output with the least amount of money. Ji Li took the fewest roles and was the highlight of the performance. I am a big man, and the whole scene was full of tears on him. "
@大鹏君: "After watching it, I can't choose the plot and actors for the time being, so I'll just scold the movie for not being able to advertise it well. There are so many famous actors who cameo, but they don't even mention a word? Garbage."
…
The praises from the film critics came one after another, and it was dizzying to watch, especially Ji Li, whose acting skills in the movie were almost exaggerated by them!
The Weibo fans of these people add up to tens of millions at least, and the influence driven by this kind of film reviews is amazing.
There are many ordinary netizens who have been successfully Amwayed by them, and they already plan to take the time to watch it.
Cai Yishu couldn't see that the movie "Time Talker" was good, so he threw away the electronic equipment a little annoyed, "How could there be no bad reviews?"
"Their producers are really willing to spend money to sell fake Amway, but unfortunately, the movie's box office is still a mess."
The staff took back their electronic equipment distressedly, and couldn't hold back for a while, pushing back, "Their producers didn't even do a good job of publicity, how can they have the money to hire film critics to fake Amway?"
"Once the public's word-of-mouth goes up, the screening rate will rise accordingly, and the box office may rise."
Now the box office of "Time Talker" is not strong, in fact, because their screening rate in theaters is too low, and it is the turn of all small movie halls, so the box office does not seem to be strong.
in other words-
At the same time period, there are nine movie halls playing "Night Walker", and only one small movie hall is playing "Time Talker", so after this round, the box office of the former must be higher.
Cai Yishu looked at the staff member coldly, "Did I let you talk? If you are so optimistic about the opponent, you can just resign and go to their side to do publicity!"
The female staff member was so stunned by him that she had nothing to say, so she could only bow her head in silence.
As soon as You Meng entered the door, she felt the gloomy aura of her own artist, "It's noon, who made you unhappy, young master?"
Cai Yishu snorted, and asked straight to the point, "Sister You, I still want to ask you, where is the critic I asked you to find two days ago?"
"What's wrong?" You Meng was puzzled.
The staff approached You Meng and explained the reason in a low voice. The latter obviously did not expect such a situation, and directly made a call.
Not long after, an explanation came from the other end of the phone.
"Ms. You, it's not that I won't help you, but that there's really nothing wrong with this movie. If we insist on saying it's not good, wouldn't we be slapping ourselves in the face?"
"Besides, I heard that the right to publicize and distribute the film has been transferred to Li Xing, and the film critics under our company all have to eat, so we can't offend the real boss for your money, right? "
"Then what, we don't want the rest of the final payment. As for the deposit, just treat it as the hush money you gave us."
The call was hung up suddenly and shamelessly.
A deposit of 100,000 yuan was given out, and it suddenly became a hush money
The other party not only took the money and did nothing, but also threatened it in turn
You Meng's face froze with anger, but she couldn't continue to investigate further.
After all, it is not a good idea to find film critics to deliberately criticize and deliberately damage the reputation of the other film... It is not a good thing to spread the word.
Cai Yishu heard the loudspeaker on the phone, couldn't bear it anymore and smashed the coffee cup on the ground, "Damn it!"
His chest heaved violently, and he felt very angry—
Again!
Why is it like this again!
Thinking back to the opening group photo of "Time Talker", he spent money to buy the draft to stir up his popularity, but everyone was deeply impressed by Ji Li in the group photo!
This time, he originally wanted to hack the movie reputation of "Time Lobbyist" in the first place and bring down their box office, but by mistake, he favored the movie and Ji Li again
Twice in a row, dare he spend money to make wedding dresses for others
"Why don't we just forget about it?" You Meng suppressed her depression and explained to Cai Yishu, "We'll just promote our own movie, why bother with a group of weak people?"
Judging from the current form, "Time Lobbyist" is destined to be their defeat.
As soon as the voice fell, I heard the assistant speak from the side, "Brother Shu, the latest ratings of professional video sites have been released, and our movie ratings..."
"What are you hesitating for? Shut up if you can't speak!" Cai Yishu yelled impatiently, and grabbed the assistant's phone.
Seeing this, he was completely dumbfounded——
The comprehensive score of "Detective Night Walker" starring him is only 7.3 points, which is the last among several movies released on New Year's Day.
And the movie with the highest rating is actually "Time Talker", which is the least favored by the outside world
As soon as the opponent started the game, they scored a high-quality high score of 9.3, and even director Xu Cheng's "Flower Demon" could only rank second with a score of 9.1.
Cai Yishu's breath was a little unsteady, "How could this be?"
"The current box office of "Time Talker" is so low, so the rating base is not large. It is very likely that the current high scores are made by fans."
You Meng stabilized her mind and gave the most reasonable explanation.
"Don't worry, just take a look at our own movie reviews."
Originally, they and the producer conservatively estimated that the movie score of "Night Walker" should be above 8 points, right? Why did it only take half a day to show, and the overall score is so low.
She clicked into the real-time comments under the movie "Night Walker"—
@vik: What kind of messed up adaptation? The essence is in the trailer! The male protagonist's wooden acting skills really made me feel annoyed. The Mu Shen in the novel is just aloof, not greasy who thinks he is handsome! [two hearts]
@木火不语: I bought the first scene this morning on purpose, but after watching it for half an hour, I was disappointed. Can anyone tell me why a good suspenseful crime film is interspersed with such a campus story of the hero and heroine? Something is wrong! Samsung is going for the original. [three stars]
@阿寺老师: The most brilliant part of the original book is the two male protagonists who solve the case! The shepherd is the main one, and the side team is the second. The movie has been changed to a suspenseful romance movie, right? Someone in the comment section is right, the trailer is the essence, the feature film is a piece of shit [一心]
@观启不语真君子: Cai Yishu has a lot of roles as the male protagonist, I have no objection, but why is Mr. Song Qingfeng, who plays the role of the side team, so few roles? The whole character has been on the stage for less than twenty minutes, right? The heroine was just sidelined in the original book, but now there are so many scenes in the movie that they are so pretentious, it makes me sick [Two Hearts]
@朱哥的小笑妹: Don’t be so embarrassing, the actor’s acting skills are fine, if there is a problem with the script, find a screenwriter, Brother Shu is the best! [five stars]
@而裤很刚: To de-mine the fans of the original book, the roles of the two male protagonists have been greatly deleted, and the emotional roles of the male and female protagonists have increased. The essence of reasoning and analysis is summed up in one stroke, the rhythm of the whole movie is chaotic, and many plots seem to be inserted suddenly. All that said, this movie is not worth your money [one heart]
…
Cai Yishu almost had a heart attack when he saw the voices of abuse.
The real-time comments have been filled with the anger of fans of the original book, and the praise of fans has been buried in an instant.
Before the film was released, whether it was the trailer or the promotional poster, they were all aimed at the interaction of the "two male protagonists", and the three released materials all fit the plot of the original work.
Before the film was released, the author of the original book personally called on book fans to support and go to the theater to watch it.
The results of it
The number of heroine roles exceeds the standard, embarrassing and hypocritical emotional lines pile after pile, and the rhythm of the feature film collapses into a mess!
The book fans and movie fans felt deeply deceived by selling dog meat on a sheep's pedestal, so they were outraged and gave an ultra-low evaluation of one star or two stars.
On the other hand, in the comment section of "Time Lobbyist", almost all of them have high scores of four or five stars.
It's not the expected fan score, but the real passerby's "tap water" comment—
@欢乐的粉学习: Strong push! I can't stop crying, I can't stop crying! The relationship between the hero and heroine is so sweet and abusive! There is also Xiang Suian played by Ji Li, everyone must see the end, my tears burst into a torrent. [five stars]
@普噗: Because Haidilao's queue was too long, I bought this movie at the right time, and I didn't expect it to be so good! I can't stop thinking about it, I plan to invite friends to go to the second brush tomorrow! [five stars]
@pjgg: The crew's publicity is not very good. There are so many famous celebrities in guest appearances. Watching a movie is like digging for treasure. [four stars]
@梦梦蛋蛋: The original youth script can do this, and it deserves a high score. I really like Ji Li's character. Who didn't have a secret love in their youth. [five stars]
…
Even though it was a movie released on the same day, one had many reviews but was poor, while the other had few but excellent reviews, and the polarization was particularly obvious.
For movies during the release period, the comprehensive score is very important data.
Its level will directly affect the audience's choice, and will also affect the follow-up efforts of the movie box office.
You Meng realized the seriousness of the problem, "I'm going to make a phone call with the producer, and hire a navy army to suppress the bad reviews first, and the most urgent thing is to raise the film's rating first."
It's only the noon of the first day. If I leave it alone, I'm afraid that at night, the ratings of the movie will continue to drop under the anger of book fans and friends.
Suddenly, a staff member came into the room and asked, "Sister You, did we buy the draft of the marketing account on Weibo?"
You Meng didn't understand, so, "What's wrong?"
"I sent it to the team work group, you have a look." The staff member said, she is responsible for Cai Yishu's promotion and marketing on Weibo, anti-criminal maintenance.
Cai Yishu picked up his mobile phone and opened the team work group impatiently. What was shared in the group was a Weibo content from a marketing account—
[On the first day of the film's release on New Year's Day, "Detective Night Walker" received rave reviews. The acting skills of the leading actor Cai Yishu have been affirmed by many netizens. The box office of the film continues to soar. I feel that it is expected to compete with "The Flower Demon" directed by Xu Cheng for the box office champion .
On the contrary, even though "Time Talker" has a lot of handsome men and beauties, the box office is still at the bottom of the street, and the film score is only 7.3 points. The hero of the box office, do you regret it?]
You Meng shook her head and analyzed it, "We didn't buy such a draft, and it's impossible for the film producer to blatantly drag other competing films..."
"Look, the content of this marketing account seems to be touting Brother Shu, but it's too blunt, and it feels like it's the opposite on purpose."
Cai Yishu stared at the phone screen, feeling more and more uneasy.
The staff continued to explain the situation, "In just half an hour, there were 40 or 50 comments on the exact same marketing account."
Praise Cai Yishu's "Detective Night Walker", and drag and belittle "Time Lobbyist"? Under the operation of this wave of laughter, some netizens have already ridiculed it in turn.
—This draft is too fake! Cai Yishu's team treats netizens as fools? The movie with a score of 7.3 seems to be "Night Walker", right? Rave reviews? Acting is affirmed? Money can turn ghosts around.
—I vomited, I beg Cai Yishu and Cai Fan to let go of the little movie "Time Talker"! Every now and then, I will be pulled out by you to ridicule me!
—Pure passer-by, "Time Talker" is very beautiful and touching, but it is Cai Yishu's "Night Walker". My husband is a fan of the original book. He entered the theater with a smile and came out cursing.
—It’s not necessary, it’s really not necessary, can movie ratings be changed these days
…
Oak star culture.
When Qin Li came in with milk tea, Ji Li was browsing the comments on the Internet with great interest.
"Baby, what are you looking at?"
"Your trick of calling out to catch a thief is really cruel. Netizens are scolding that Cai Yishu's team marketing is too fake." Ji Li smiled.
In fact, Qin Li asked the company's publicity team to buy the drafts of these marketing accounts.
The purpose is to fight the routine of anti-marketing warfare.
After all, the marketing account praised Cai Yishu, and ordinary netizens would not suspect them.
At present, netizens have begun to mock Cai Yishu.
Qin Li personally inserted the straw into the milk tea lid before handing it to his lover. He didn't think the place was crowded, and sat directly next to the other party.
"Don't squeeze here, isn't there another sofa seat?" Ji Li said so verbally, subconsciously making room for him.
Qin Li took the opportunity to kiss his earlobe and said with a smile, "Squeeze to keep warm."
When it was over, he stretched out his arms to circle his lover.
As soon as Qi An entered the office, he saw the crooked posture of the two of them, and almost rolled his eyes to the sky.
is it necessary? is it necessary
It's just a relationship, do you need to be so sticky
"I see that the public opinion on the Internet is almost the same, should we continue to the next step now?"
"Wait a little longer." Ji Li glanced at the time, "After half an hour, I will send it through the crew's official Weibo."
He took a sip of milk tea and added, "In order to direct and act more realistically, it's best to take a screenshot of these marketing accounts and issue a unified statement..."
Qin Li laughed, but did not refute.
Qi An was amazed, "I see, Cai Yishu is going to be played 'to death' by the two of you this time."
"Who made him want to splash dirty water first?"
Ji Li had a harmless face, thoughtful and decisive, "In that case, of course I'm going to make this bucket of water darker, and put it back on his head properly."
It is his true style to avenge all grudges.
"Just do what Ji Li says." Qin Li said.
Qi An nodded, and left the office before the two of them spread the dog food.
Ji Li is drinking the milk tea with a straw in his mouth.
Qin Li's thoughts moved slightly, and he leaned closer and whispered to his ear, "Honey, is the milk tea delicious?"
"good."
"It's better than the ice cream last time? Then I want to try it too."
Ji Li understood the deep meaning in his words, and his cheeks felt a little hot, but he still leaned over and took the initiative to place a sweet kiss on his lover's lips.
"Haven't you always disliked sweets?"
"But I want to eat you."
Ji Li stared at the overly handsome face in front of him, rolled his Adam's apple, and muttered softly, "I want to too."
It's just that the timing is not right, he is busy slapping his face right now.
After Ji Liquietly teased Mimi, she pretended to be nonchalant and turned around.
Qin Li's eyes darkened, and he pulled the other party closer.
…
Half an hour later, the official Weibo of the movie "Time Talker", which has been lazy in business, suddenly issued a serious statement—
"Thanks to everyone's love, taking the opportunity of the film's release, I would like to make an official statement on behalf of the entire crew.
From preparation, filming, post-production, to launch, the entire film crew upholds the firm belief in making good dramas.
At the beginning, the first leading actor of the film did invite Mr. Cai Yishu to join.
However, within a week before and after the film was launched, Mr. Cai Yishu and his personal screenwriter Wang Yongwei modified the plot of the script without authorization. The length and severity of the revisions have completely deviated from the excitement that the original script should have!
Under the premise of several discussions, Cai Yishu's team still insisted on their own opinions, so after careful consideration by the producer, they amicably terminated the contract with Mr. Cai Yishu and the team.
But since the official announcement of the film, the latter team has publicly slandered the crew twice and three times, which is really unbearable! The truth of the script is made public!
In addition, please delete the false news from the marketing account! Otherwise held liable! "
In addition to the lawyer's letter warning the marketing account, the crew also attached the revised script plot, the original screenwriter of the script and the communication voice record of Cai Yishu's team.
The attitude of the crew's official blog was very rigid, and Cai Yishu's name was directly included in Weibo, so the reading volume and attention gradually increased.
— Good fellow! Squat down to a big melon! This is because the crew couldn't hold back anymore and publicly tore up the former male lead
—I knew that when the crew replaced Cai Yishu, it must have been tricky! Didn't expect him to be an actor? What kind of messed up script content is this, a dog blood youth drama
— Have you listened to the voice recording? When I heard the tone of Cai Yishu's team, I wanted to beat him up! Do you really consider yourself an important person
—The content of the script has been changed by two-thirds, and the setting of the male trio has been completely tampered with? Oh my goodness, luckily it was replaced.
—Wang Yongwei, what kind of rubbish screenwriter? How come I haven't heard of it.
Unexpectedly, as soon as this comment came out, it was forwarded publicly by the famous screenwriter Ji Mingyue.
"Because he's just trash that doesn't respect the original script, so doesn't deserve a name."
Ji Mingyue's reputation and connections in the screenwriting circle have always been very good. After her active and strong voice, she immediately attracted the attention of more screenwriters in the circle.
Mr. Fang Qiong, who once won the "Best Screenplay" of the three major film festivals, commented—
"Actually, I read the two volumes of scripts before and after "The Time Lobbyist".
It can only be said that under Wang Yongwei's careful adaptation, the original excellent script was pulled below the passing line. "
Even the president of the Huaguo Screenwriters Association stood up and said—
"Don't let selfish additions ruin what should be an excellent original work."
Well-known screenwriter teachers in the circle jointly spoke out, and immediately raised the authenticity of Cai Yishu's addition of dramas and Wang Yongwei's unauthorized modification of the script to the highest level.
——Cai Yishu and Wang Yongwei, this hot chicken partner, is not the first time to change the script and add drama, right? There are still so many people who don't know
—Jiaxijia is disgusting. Fortunately, he didn't appear in "Time Lobbyist", which almost ruined a good script.
-No way? I plan to watch "Night Walker" starring him tomorrow.
—Don't watch it, the movie "Night Walker" is ugly, I finally understand what's going on with those inexplicably extra emotional scenes between the hero and heroine.
Just when netizens were discussing heatedly, the original author and screenwriter of "Night Walker" suddenly stood up and jointly sued with righteous indignation.
"@蔡思书, @王永伟, ruined my work with Yin Yang script, are you happy?"
