After he muttered a few words, his finger movements were not slow, and he quickly clicked on the rightmost position in the fourth row and the two positions in the fifth row. He wanted to go see it with his cousins!
"I'm going to call Jinyi Cinema over there in the film and television city, hoping to help Teacher Lin."
So I simply bought three prime-time copies of "Journey to the West: Conquering the Demons" as replacements, and went to the Hanlin Academy to post a post!
Compared with such giants, "Immortal" is much shabby. It doesn't even have a midnight screening schedule. As of midnight, 1,500 pre-sale screenings have contributed a total of 3.48 million yuan in box office, with an attendance rate of A terrifying 81%!
Is it so hard to get a ticket for a movie with a ridiculously low schedule
"I don't know what to say. Buying a movie ticket is as difficult as grabbing a train ticket during the Spring Festival!"
"Lin Han is still suitable for writing novels, not making movies, so as not to make any jokes."
Some cinemas also tried to open a non-prime time show, but it was fully booked within three hours!
Tieba has always been very hostile. Almost all these netizens are not very optimistic about the box office prospects of "Immortal". They believe that Lin Han's return to the film industry will be a dud!
"Um, does this really work?"
There are only a few movies in the lineup. Not only are the seats in the best viewing positions locked, but there are even no free seats in the last row. There are only a few left in the corners, and there are several in the second row. The location was purchased.
The Movie Box Office Bar is the most concentrated place in Tieba to talk about movies and box office. It has a high number of members and the number of posts and replies every day ranks among the top of Tieba. Anything related to movies can be found here.
"It's no problem, leave it to me. If there aren't enough people, take the phone numbers of your parents, younger siblings, etc., and be sure to ask them to help."
…
Zhou Wei's post actually does not have any technical content. He is just complaining on his own, but it is true and expresses the aspirations of many fans.
"What's going on? There's no movie theater nearby showing "Immortal." Do we still have to take a taxi to Beicheng Tianjie?"
There is no room for the three of them to sit, unless they sit in the first and second rows!
"Immortal" has been spontaneously promoted among netizens for a long time, but when it came time to buy tickets, most of them couldn't find them at all!
Ten million, twenty million, or thirty million
According to past practice, Zhou Wei would never consider the first few rows. The viewing effect is not good and the neck will always be tilted up, which is very troublesome.
"The movie that claims to be the fastest to recoup its costs in history actually grossed the box office? Now Maoyan Movies' pre-sale attendance rate has been reduced from 77% to 58%. It has been brought back to its original shape!"
Many people have read his science fiction novels, and even more people have heard of his name. He is naturally ahead of the rest in terms of popularity among passers-by. Except for the black spot when he first filmed "Out of the Solar System", no one with a magnifying glass can see him. I can't find anything to blame about him!
Other movies have a long list of movie theater names, but within the main urban area of Chongqing, only 5 movie theaters have scheduled movies for "Immortal".
The moderators of the forum were bombarded by this suggestion. This is a senior Hanlin Academy fan. He replied: "The one upstairs, this is a good idea. In addition, I would like to add that we have Hanlin Academy fans in every city. For each branch, the person in charge of each branch can contact friends who want to watch a movie, then find a suitable cinema, call that cinema, and find a few more friends to call there to express their desire to watch a movie. , if it still can’t be increased, then let’s see if we can contact you to book the venue!”
"Lin Han usually relies on his novels to get to the top of the revenue list, but now he actually wants to buy tickets at the cinema, and he is not afraid of being listed online. Even if the number of shows is small, the attendance rate is really outrageous. Don't wait until then. There were only a few people watching, but the tickets were sold out!”
…
The unity of the Hanlin Academy is obvious to all. In the forum and in the QQ group of administrators, these people actively offer their opinions and suggestions, hoping to change the status quo!
"Just now I was thinking that we should set up a private venue, but not everyone can spare the time. This is good. I'll call Poly upstairs at China Resources Vanguard. Brothers, I'll follow up later!"
There are such wars of words all over the Internet. In this virtual world where each other is invisible, the dark side of many people's hearts quietly bursts out, and all kinds of negative emotions are overwhelming.
"There are so many people buying tickets, and the movie theaters don't even have more movies scheduled. I'm also drunk!"
…
Although "Immortal" doesn't have a lot of films scheduled, it's a hot topic, with all kinds of posts popping up!
The Hanlin Academy, which is usually hidden on the Internet, is like a sleeping lion. Now that they have opened their eyes, fans all over the country can't help but take action and participate!
"No matter, let's try and talk about it later, it's better than doing nothing!"
On this day, those managers who planned their own movie theater schedules had to start scratching their heads. Is the popularity really that high? Will it be empty? What if after arranging a movie, no one buys tickets
"The preview of "The Immortal" is so disturbing to watch. The attendance rate is the highest among all the films so far. The pre-sale seems to be terrible. If there are more movies scheduled, will the box office explode?"
"This is a victory for our Hanlin Academy. It was added after so many people gave feedback to the theater. Although the number of additional shows is small, it is better than nothing. I suggest the poster to use vests next time when you have a black game, and don't embarrass yourself if you are mentally retarded. !”
But there are many fans of Lin Han who have been involved in the movie box office. They are not simple characters. Almost all of them are old people at level 14 or above, and they are very clear about the twists and turns.
"Wait a minute, I have a suggestion. Since the movie tickets are selling so well, we can post it on Weibo and let netizens get excited about it, and then @those movie theater chains and let them do whatever they want."
"I want to boost the box office but can't give up the money. Lin Han is really stingy. Did he spend all the money on the navy?"
"I would like to ask a newbie, is "Immortal" suspected of box office fraud? The pre-sale attendance rate of "Journey to the West: Conquering the Demons" released during the Spring Festival is not as high as it. I went to any theater and found that it was almost full. This movie is very popular. My ability to boost box office is too weak and needs to be improved!"
"@All members, "Immortality" will be released on the first day of the Lunar New Year, but there are only two of the more than 50 theaters in Suzhou where you can watch it. If possible, everyone can take turns to show it to Wanda, Jinyi, Poly, and Chengtian Jiahe called and said that he wanted to buy tickets but couldn't see it! As long as more people say it, they will definitely take it seriously. Whether you can see Teacher Lin's movie at home depends on everyone!"
The Spring Festival Gala, which is getting worse and worse, has been scolded and scolded, and the fireworks are exploding in the sky with bright colors.
Lin Han's readers should not be underestimated. He did not rely on charity from others to be the top of the rich list of Chinese writers, but relied on the best-selling novels one after another.
"Stop talking, I managed to buy two tickets for the last row, but my brother also wanted to see it, so I had to buy him a separate ticket for the front row."
This seemingly contradictory sentence is indeed true. Cinemas are unwilling to schedule movies, and they can't buy tickets for the ones they want to see. There is a huge contradiction between supply and demand!
"Although I bought a movie ticket for the New Year's Day, as long as I can buy tickets here, I can watch both movies!"
The place where I watch movies for a long time has promotions for various other popular movies, but not one is reserved for "The Immortal"!
No matter what the outside world thinks, says, or evaluates, the first day of the Lunar New Year has arrived so quietly!
"At least you can watch it if you put in the effort. It's located in a third-tier city in Hunan, and there's no queue in the entire city."
"Damn it, this is going to cause trouble and prevent people from watching the movie!"
"Hahaha, you're so good at the box office but you still don't admit it. Every idol has its own fans!"
"Speaking of why "The Immortal" has a high attendance rate, that's because it is shown in very few theaters, often only a few in a city. We have no other choice, which is very sad to say. If there were other choices, As for running to the cinema at ten o'clock in the morning on New Year's Day?"
"Explain to the novices why the occupancy rate dropped from 77% to 58%. That's because the cinema saw that the pre-sales of "The Immortal" were very popular and the supply exceeded demand, so it added a few more theaters. At first, there were only 820 shows nationwide. , now it has increased to 1,250 games, do you think the attendance rate will not drop?"
Zhou Wei angrily threw his phone on the sofa. Wasn't he just watching a movie? Why couldn't he succeed? In fact, he didn't have to watch this movie, but he just couldn't swallow it.
"I want to see "The Immortal", but I can't even buy a ticket. Are all those movie theaters eating shit? The film distributor is of no use either. We have to find a way to help Teacher Lin, even if it is a movie It’s a bad movie, so we have to watch it!”
"The poster is a low-end hacker. Do you need to buy tickets for "Immortality"? I have already made back my investment, and it is not as difficult as your Ip Man to make back the original investment."
Everyone is very busy at the end of the year. Originally, none of the managers of the Hanlin Academy Forum could spare time, but now the situation has become so serious. Whether it is for Lin Han or for yourself, we must act quickly.
Not only did it exceed 100 million yuan in pre-sale box office within 34 hours of pre-sale, but even before its official release at 0:00 on the first day of the Lunar New Year, the total pre-sale box office reached 180 million yuan, setting a series of new records!
Tieba is a place where great masters and idiots come out. As the younger age becomes more and more serious, the quality of people chatting in it has also become mixed. People from the Hanlin Academy have made the facts very clear, but some people just pretend not to see it. Or if you can't understand it, you would rather be blind or mentally retarded than forcefully try to hide it.
"As proof, the cumulative box office of "Immortal" is only 10 million. If it exceeds 10 million, I will eat rice fields!"
"I thought it was just me. In order to watch Mr. Lin's movie, I had to get up early and take an hour's bus ride across half the city to watch it. God knows how much I wanted to sleep in!"
The branches of the Hanlin Academy in each city are busy. They have their own QQ group or WeChat group. The group leader directly starts @ all members in the group, and the divers get excited.
Under such circumstances, Lin Han's fans became angry and began to take action one by one to help Lin Han and this science fiction film in their own way.
On this day, the operators of major movie theaters became the busiest profession in the country. One after another, they called to ask why "Immortal" was not shown. The first one gave an explanation, while the second and third ones were just confused. Numbly replied: "Okay, no problem, it has been recorded, and there will be results after feedback."
Just after clicking to enter the seat selection interface, Zhou Wei couldn't help but frown. This was too hot!
Without the background of a big company or massive publicity, "Immortal" relied on the unremitting efforts of Lin Han fans and abruptly increased its games from more than 800 to more than 1,500. Where will its end point be
Soon, there were a lot of replies to the post, and almost everyone felt the same way!
Cinemas always leave 10% of their mobile film schedules, which is more flexible, so some theaters gradually started to try it and opened two non-prime time shows. After the pre-sale results were very promising, they opened another prime time show. Time and again, this little change is encouraging to everyone!
"Anyway, you have swiped your votes, but if you want to swipe, just swipe tens of millions. One or two million swipes is nothing!"
People who pay attention to the movie box office already know that the Spring Festival season has officially begun, and a war without gunpowder has begun. The pre-sales are equivalent to sporadic firefights before the war. This time "Journey to the West: Conquering the Demons" has won a big victory!
As the Spring Festival approaches, Zhou Wei is using his mobile phone to search for movies he wants to watch on Che Guevara. He doesn’t like playing mahjong, and chatting with people is quite boring, so going to the movies has become his best choice!
Just when he thought the seat was locked successfully and was about to pay, the system prompted that the seat had expired. Someone had occupied the two seats in the fifth row before him!
There are actually a Wanda, a CGV and a Huayi Brothers near Zhou Wei's home, but there are none of these three. He has to go to a special place, which is very troublesome!
"Forget it, let's just go out and have fun." He didn't care too much about the price. After all, a movie worth more than 20 yuan is not expensive, and this is not 4D or IMAX.
On the twenty-seventh of the twelfth lunar month, the student party had already gone home, and only some of the working people stayed at their posts. The group that had not been chatting suddenly became active.
