Chapter 556: Strong counterattack
Lu Chen also clearly remembered Chen Wenqiang's evaluation of Zhou Yi.
Zhou Yi is a real businessman.
A real businessman is the best at judging the situation. When he faces the choice, he always chooses to be the best for himself. If he needs to put down his face, he will never stand up.
Real businessmen can't be true friends either.
Lu Chen will not be a friend of Zhou Yi. As a business partner, there is no problem, so after the mutual understanding between the two sides reached a consensus, he entered the topic.
"The layout of our new film is too low, I hope that Zhou boss will make more efforts in this regard."
The filming of "Ghost Story" on the first day was less than 20%. It was not too bad, nor did it meet Lu Chen’s expectations. It was the task of Jiayang Film Industry to communicate with the cinemas and cinemas in Hong Kong.
Lu Chen Studio has just established itself in Xiangjiang. All aspects of the channel need to be expanded. There is a lack of contacts and resources in the circle, so there is no such thing as a partner like Jiayang Film.
Zhou Yi smiled and said: "Lu Shao assured that we have this result. I believe that any theater can't ignore it. I have sent people to negotiate with Wanli and Deqing. I believe there is no problem in increasing the number of films."
Wanli and Deqing are the two major cinemas in Xiangjiang. The two sides jointly own more than 60% of the cinemas in Xiangjiang, and their status in the Xiangjiang film circle is very important.
The famous Oriental Hollywood Theatre is the largest cinema under the Wanli Cinema Line.
Zhou Yi said with confidence: "Our current film is not high, mainly because "painting skin" buys a box office and takes up a share, but Huaguan and Xingyi can buy a box office for a week, he can't buy it for a month!"
Buying a box office is a hidden rule in the circle. The rich and powerful owners often play, but they are definitely limited.
Xiangjiang's film market is small in scale, and a few million can occupy a considerable share of the film, but unless it is tolerant to the extreme, no one will lose money to the water.
In order to support the "painted skin" scene, Huaguan and Xingyi bought a box office for four days in a row. In Zhou Yi’s opinion, they basically came close to the limit.
On the other hand, if this cheating behavior exceeds the limit, it will also lead to public outrage.
If you play too much, no one wants to play.
Therefore, Zhou Yi is very determined that the high ticket office of "Painted Skin" will not last long. Once the original shape is revealed, it is the day when the "Ghost Story" is a strong counterattack.
The cinema is not a fool, they are more aware of the tricks, so it is reasonable to increase the "Ghost Story" in advance.
The most important thing is that the surprise sales of "Ghost Story" is undoubtedly equivalent to stimulants, enough to stimulate the sensitive nerves of the theater, so that they can make wise choices.
The facts were not unexpected. On February 22nd, the "Ghost Story" increased to 22.67% in Hong Kong. Many of the events were temporarily increased today, and the box office broke through the 4 million mark.
Its surrounding products continued to rise at the box office with the exclamation in the circle, reaching 3.58 million!
At the same time, the "Painted Skin", which has been strong for a few days, finally showed its real declining trend. At the box office on the 22nd, only 3.1 million were harvested, completely behind the "Ghost Story".
This is somewhat beyond the expectations of the industry. Everyone thought that "Painted Skin" would continue to buy a box office for a few days in order to suppress "Ghost Story". I didn't expect to admit defeat so quickly.
Then there was insider information, saying that because the real box office results were too bad, Huaguan Film and Star Art Entertainment had serious differences and contradictions. Don’t say that they continue to buy box office, that is, publicity is also facing problems.
In just two days of hard work, "Ghost Story" completed a beautiful counterattack, showing the momentum of take-off!
On the Internet, a large number of comments on the "Ghost Story" have emerged, including the articles of many film critics, Wang Dong is in the list.
As an independent film critic, Wang Dong has a habit of writing a film review, that is, he will not publish his own film review before the film is officially released, even if he has seen the premiere in advance.
"Ghost Story" is no exception.
Wang Dong wrote a film review article after being invited to participate in the premiere of "Ghost Story", but he did not publish it on his blog until two days after the film was officially released.
"When I first started watching "Ghost Story", I thought it was a fantasy ghost film similar to "Painted Skin". I also laughed at the fact that the current filmmakers did not conceive ideas and turned the story in "Strange Tales from a Lonely Studio". Change it, add a star face and special effects to the table to fool the audience, it is very boring."
"However, after watching the film, I discovered that although I also used the "Strange Tales from a Lonely Studio", "Ghost Story" and "Painted Skin" are works of different levels, and the two cannot be compared."
"The Ghost Story is too much beyond the painting skin!"
"A smear of Tsing Yi, a broken hat, a pair of shoes that are broken, is the image of Ning Caichen, the protagonist of the play, brought to everyone. The world is full of sorrows, he has a youth to learn, but it is useless, so that he is sold. The hawker of the painting is ridiculed as 'high grade and low status'."
"But even then, he didn't lose the cuteness in his bones. He was innocent and pedantic, but he was also sentimental, positive and optimistic. He often hit the wall when he was not in time, but there was no trace of depression."
"And Nie Xiaoqian, the ghost of a dead family, the female ghost who flows down the barren hill, specializes in sucking the essence of young men. But this is not because of her intention. Every time she hurts passers-by, her heart will be endured by endless self-blame and sorrow. She is beautiful and kind. Although she is forced by the finest trees, although all the ghosts around her are murderous, she still stands alone in her inner conscience, and is unique in that dirty and dark world."
"The encounter between the hero and the hero is an accident, and it is also the fate of the fate. A period of beautiful love connects the whole movie in series. Even if the ending is not perfect, it is still touching!"
“The whole plot is compact, the story is exciting, and the soundtrack theme song is first class”
"There is another impressive character in the play, that is, Yan Chixia, a little bit mad, drunk, sorrowful, demon, in the laughter and roar, I saw an old bone Deep skill!"historical
"I dare to assert that "Ghost Story" will surely make the classics in the ghost film"
Wang Dong’s editor-in-chief, Bowen, wrote more than 2,000 words. It is the longest of the film reviews he has written. It is a rave comment, and all the articles are praises. People are skeptical that he is not What are the benefits of taking the film?
However, anyone who has seen "Ghost Story" will not have such doubts! ——
The second is sent. (To be continued.)
