Views:

After learning that "Casino" was removed from the shelves, many film producers were celebrating.

Movie "Endless Night" investment company, in the conference room.

A middle-aged man sitting in the main seat said with a smile on his face: "Get ready immediately and notify all major theaters to schedule films for "The End of the Night". We will take advantage of the period when "Casino" is removed from the shelves. By following this wave of popularity, we will avoid encountering big-budget movies like "Casino" in the future, and then our low-budget art film may never be able to take off!"

Suddenly hearing this, the conference room instantly became noisy.

The main creative staff of this movie were all talking among themselves at this time.

After a while, the director of the movie stood up and said politely: "Mr. Sun, isn't this bad? We just informed the fans to postpone the premiere. Will it make people feel a little uncomfortable to premiere it so soon? repeatedly?"

When Mr. Sun heard this, his expression suddenly dropped and he said: "What are you talking about? You are not in a hurry, but can I not be in a hurry? If this movie is not released for one day, I will not be able to recover my investment. . Just now that "Casino" has been removed from the shelves, isn't it a good opportunity for us? What if we wait any longer and "Casino" comes back? Will it have to be postponed again? "

"Besides, we announced that the premiere will be postponed, but we didn't specify when it will premiere. Isn't this much better than the situation I mentioned?"

The director was speechless at this time. After five minutes, he said: "Mr. Sun, you may not know that "The Return of the Great Sage" is at its peak right now. You chose to release it at this time. , I’m afraid I’m going to have to compete with this movie—”

Before he finished speaking, he was interrupted by Mr. Sun: "Isn't it just an animated movie? How big of a wave can it make? Even if its box office is very good, after so many days, I'm afraid it's already saturated. ?”

The director opened his mouth at this time, but before he could say anything, he was interrupted by Mr. Sun: "Okay, stop talking, this matter is settled-"

What happened in this conference room was certainly not an accident. Almost at the same time, several movies that had originally been postponed were announced for release, causing consternation in the industry.

Many netizens even questioned the sinister intentions of these movies and investors on Weibo.

"What the hell, what's going on? When "Casino" was released, you all took it off the shelves one after another to avoid its sharpness. But after it was taken off the shelves, all of you were so stupid. This is too much. Show your face!"

"Hey, I think they are not shameless, but they are trying to kill themselves! We all know why "Casino" was removed from the shelves. These people dare not challenge this bad movie with hard steel and that bad movie. If they don’t even dare to have anal sex in a movie, can they still have a good ending?”

The temporary premiere of these other movies did not have any impact on the box office of "The Return of the Monkey King", and even, to a certain extent, greatly stimulated the box office of this movie.

In Beijing, a young couple excitedly came to the Capital Cinema and said to the ticket seller at the front desk with a smile: "Hello, I want two movie tickets for "The Return of the Great Sage". The closer the time is, the better!"

After checking the ticketing system, the conductor showed a hint of embarrassment on his face and said: "I'm sorry, sir, today's tickets for "The Return of the Great Sage" have been sold out. You might as well choose another movie and try it." ?These are all newly released films!”

"Well, let's take two copies of "Boundless Night"!"

Half an hour later, I saw the young couple walking out of the screening room cursing.

"Fuck, what kind of movie is this! After watching it for a long time, I didn't understand what he was talking about? Why do you think you have so many special effects in a literary film?"

"This movie is so bad, no wonder they didn't dare to premiere it at the same time as Casino!"

"So what do we do? Choose one of these movies, or wait until tomorrow?"

"Let's go to the nearby Left Bank Cinema to watch it. I've just booked the tickets for the couple's box!"

After the little girl heard this, she immediately stood up on tiptoes, hugged her boyfriend's head, and planted a strawberry with a "chirp" sound.

Jinyi Cinema, screening room of "Don't Ask Me Who I am".

Not even ten minutes into the movie, a young couple ran out, cursing as they ran:

"Damn it, this is too scary. We are the only two in the entire screening room. We are so scared!"

"What kind of horror movie is this? The special effects make me want to laugh! I'll give you fifty cents at most!"

Bona Cinemas, "Holy War."

About half an hour after the movie started, the audience in the screening room started to walk out one after another, and many people were still complaining as they walked.

"Damn it, when I heard the name, I thought it was a big production, but I didn't expect it to be such a rubbish subject. I'd be damned if it could retain the audience!"

"Actually, it's okay. We are all too familiar with this subject matter and it has no appeal at all. Instead of wasting time watching this, we might as well wait for "The Return of the Great Sage"!"

On Douban, with more and more people rating it, and even the possibility of someone maliciously posting bad reviews, the rating of "The Return of the Great Sage" has dropped from the highest of 9.7 points.

Even so, the film still maintained a high score of 9.1, beating all films released during the same period. Even some big-budget commercial films in Europe and the United States were pulled down by this movie.

Those filmmakers and even investors who had previously dismissed animated films did not expect that such a scene would occur, and they were all shocked.

Among them, the media launched massive reports on this movie, which immediately pushed this movie to the forefront.

"The rise of domestic animated films? "The Return of the Great Sage" grossed 500 million in box office in the first month of its release, becoming the biggest winner!"

""The Return of the Great Sage" shines brightly, eclipsing other domestic films and languishing at the box office!"

"Qin Hao: Who said there is no way out for animated movies? Even if there is no way out, I will still find a way out!"

It is said that after these news were published in the newspapers, there was a burst of broken glassware and some offensive and obscene words in the offices of many film investors.

If we talk about the happiest group of people at the moment, they are of course Qin Hao's fans.

They have almost swept the screen!

Almost all people in their circle of friends have been captured by Qin Hao's "The Return of the Great Sage"!

In fact, a saying has begun to circulate on the Internet: If you have never watched "The Return of the Great Sage", then you are embarrassed to say that you are a literary young man.
