Chapter 956: The Fans (23)

#《药神》打打《Animal World》, the end of traffic stars#
#《药神》Breaking [-] million in a single day#
The top two most searched on Weibo...

It wasn't Shen Changlin who bought the hot search, but the company bought it...

According to Shen Changlin, who is talking about traffic these days?
Li Yifeng?
Now everyone is discussing Yang Chaoyue and Wang Ju, who cares about you Li Yifeng?

嗏

From the media, including netizens, they are happy to hear that the traffic is being slapped.

Especially the one that hit it is a better quality film...

Actors are also capable...

That would be even more joyful!

Of course, more media and film critics praised "I'm Not the God of Medicine":
"Although it's a bit too much to say "pre-order the best in China in 18 years", but "The God of Medicine" is indeed a good movie in every sense!"

"In the torrent of great changes we have just experienced, there are countless such little people struggling to survive in the torrent of the times, and at the same time trying not to lose their souls. Finally, there is such a movie that allows us to see the times and see Good intentions, see hope. What a great movie!"

""The God of Medicine" is not painted, powdered or polished. It is a rare masterpiece of realism in recent years. It clearly writes about China. !"

"The narrative, acting, rhythm, and camera are all worthy of five stars. After watching the movie, you don't even know who to blame-there is only one disease in this world, which cannot be cured by poverty! It's too realistic..."

There are even real-name bad reviews: "After reading the bad reviews, they are basically given by a few film critics who claim to be independent professionals. Sure enough, they have to speak movie language, commercial kitsch and so on!
Although film critics will have a climax if this theme is filmed like Hou Xiaoxian and Jia Zhangke, but what you actually like is the feeling of two or three of you sitting in the theater, don’t you?
Without this kind of film, filmmakers would be completely speechless amidst the great changes of the times that rapidly abandon vulnerable groups. "

……

With the support of strong word-of-mouth, the box office of "The God of Medicine" was 3.2 million on the second day of its release, 3.98 million on the third day, and [-] million on the fourth day!
The box office in the first week (plus on-demand screenings), the box office went straight to 14.84 billion...

This trend reminds people of "Wolf Warrior 2"!
Many people discussed on the Internet whether "The God of Medicine" can surpass "Wolf Warrior 2"...

This...how is it possible?
"Wolf Warrior 2" can have that box office. The right time, place and people have taken advantage of it. It has become a phenomenal event in 2017. You know, "Wolf Warrior 2" has attracted many middle-aged and elderly people who have never been to a movie theater. Tickets to watch, this kind of influence is simply too terrifying.

If there is no "big accident" - another excellent work that takes advantage of the right time, place and people will appear, and only rely on the normal and stable development of the domestic film market, there should be no film in the next three to five years to break its record.

"Changjin Lake"...

In terms of the number of viewers alone, "Wolf Warrior 2" is missing a lot!
Yang Xiaomi pestered Shen Changlin and wanted him to analyze it...

"Analyze what?"

"Is it possible for the box office of "The God of Medicine" to surpass that of "Wolf Warrior 2"?"

Shen Changlin made a shocked expression: "What are you talking about? A movie with a realistic theme like "The God of Medicine" is definitely not comparable to a popcorn movie like "Wolf Warrior 2" in terms of audience range and acceptance... Even the box office of "Tang Detective 2" has not surpassed that of "Wolf Warrior 2"..."

"...Then how much box office do you think it can get?"

"Between 35 and 40 billion. After all, I only show it for 30 days. After 30 days, it will be released directly, and the Internet video will be seamlessly transferred!"

"why?"

"Because "Operation Red Sea" is about to be released!"

——"Operation Red Sea" is scheduled for August 8st...

……

Generally speaking, the audience will be very enthusiastic when promoting a movie road show with a lot of word of mouth...

Of course, it will be friendly too!

Will there be a premiere of "Painted Skin 2" at Peking University? Some students from Peking University directly questioned whether the film was made or not understood...

Anyway, after so many years of road shows, Shen Changlin has basically communicated with the audience in a friendly way, but this time "The God of Medicine" is different!

Because the release of "The God of Medicine" directly blocked Li Yifeng's "Animal World".

It's really blocked - after "The God of Medicine" was officially released, the film schedule of "Animal World" was cut from 30% to 18%, and then 12%, and the single-day box office also dropped by tens of millions...

It was released for 18 days, with a cumulative box office of 6.07 million...

This result is definitely not able to recover the cost!

There is no possibility of a sequel!

By the way, when Li Yifeng's "Psychological Crime" was promoted, the producer and Li Chenguang's Li Li said: "I think there should be no problem with the box office of the first film exceeding [-] million. As long as it exceeds [-] million, you can continue to make sequels... '

But never shot...

Pulling back, the road show is just to share feelings with the audience, nonsense...

There is no need to elaborate on the previous discussion, but at the end of the questioning session, a boy wearing glasses suddenly stood up and said: "Don't you think that if a movie with a small investment like "The God of Medicine" is really a big hit, it is a kind of industrial movie. Is there any bad news? Now the domestic industrial film has just started a little bit, but it is suppressed by the trolls, screenings, and overwhelming publicity, and it is also praised and trampled..."

Shen Changlin was stunned for a moment, and then replied: "We don't have overwhelming publicity, right? In fact, the cost of publicity for "The God of Medicine" didn't even reach 2000 million... let alone the overwhelming publicity suppression!"

The man insisted: "Small budget and big sales or industrial films, which one do you think is more conducive to the development of Chinese films?"

Just as the host was about to interrupt, Shen Changlin waved his hand and asked seriously, "Are you complaining for industrial production, or do you think it's unfair that "Animal World" lost to "I'm Not the God of Medicine?"

"Both!"

"First of all, let me tell you that industrial production is not the reason why a movie can be sold well. There are so many blockbuster movies in Hollywood every year, and only a few blockbusters. Not to mention, Warner's "Justice League" cost [-] million US dollars. What about the box office?"

"Secondly, the capacity of the Chinese film market is very large. The market can reach one billion in a single day, and the single-day peak of "The God of Medicine" only broke 4 million..."

"In the end, it was not our decision to expand screenings, it was a proposal from the theaters. We originally only wanted to have a wave of screenings on weekends. The theaters felt that the attendance rate was high, so they suggested expanding the scope of screenings..."

"In addition, most audiences only care about whether the movie is good or not, and whether it has a good reputation or not. They don't even know what to order! The domestic market is so big that it can accommodate several blockbuster movies at the same time. As long as the quality of the movie is excellent, it is not afraid that it will not have a box office!"

"But "Animal World" is very good-looking..."

Shen Changlin didn't answer his question, but stared at him: "...Do you insist on forcing me to tell the truth before you are satisfied? The market is very fair. There is a term called repayment effect. It took Shu Qi [-] years to realize it. Putting on the clothes that have been taken off, how can Yingdi Li win the audience's reputation with just one movie?"

"But because of "Animal World", Li Yifeng has not accepted other activities for eight months..."

"So? Is he doing well?"

"At least a pass..."

"Pass? Is a pass enough? If it's really like what you said, eight months in the crew can only produce a pass. Such an actor has no talent. I suggest that he change careers as soon as possible!"
