Chapter 195 This movie really sucks
How to suppress the heat of the next movie?

There are undoubtedly many ways.

The key is to see what the popularity of the movie depends on.

"Crazy Stone" is undoubtedly based on word of mouth.

Then Orange Media wanted to suppress the popularity, so it naturally started from word of mouth.

Hire trolls to bribe film critics to criticize.

Discrediting competitors is commonplace in the entertainment industry.

However, is "Crazy Stone" too dark?
difficult!
Of course, it is difficult to criticize, not because the film has a good reputation and cannot be criticized.

Three become tigers.

All the mouths of gold, accumulating and destroying bones.

How many movies are there that can't be black?
The reason why it can't be hacked is because the investors of "Crazy Stone" are not at the mercy of others.

Perhaps the investment in this film is not large, but the recent popularity makes Wansheng Film and Television feel that there is a possibility of explosion.

Naturally, Wansheng Film and Television will not sit idly by.

After all, this movie is the first to be released among the many movies invested by Wansheng Film and Television.

Wansheng Film and Television is also the sole distributor of the film.

For this movie, Wansheng Film and Television received more box office share than Zhang Yu, the largest investor.

The higher the box office, the more they earn.

Of course, Wansheng Film and Television is not only interested in making money.

"Crazy Stone" became popular, which undoubtedly gave Wansheng Film and Television a good start.

After all, this film is the first to be released among the films invested by the company, which is of great significance.

Your side is black, our side is boastful.

Don't be afraid of controversy, perhaps the greater the controversy, the more attractive it will be to movie fans.

Wansheng Film and Television was established not long ago, but it has recruited a lot of talents in the circle. How to use the controversy to expand the effect of publicity is still difficult for the publicity department.

"Crazy Stone" was hacked, but the momentum became bigger and bigger.

Then, the initial schedule of movies increased from [-]% to [-]%.

Don't underestimate the [-]%, some low-budget films may not get that many films at the beginning of their release.

Orange Media is shooting itself in the foot this time.

"The company has re-evaluated your movie." Wang Mei looked at Zhang Yu and said, "There is a certain chance that a miracle will be staged again."

Another miracle?

In the eyes of everyone, the box office of "Buried Alive" is a miracle.

"The investment of "Buried Alive" is much higher than this movie." Zhang Yu said with a smile, "Based on this calculation, the box office of "Crazy Stone" doesn't even need to reach [-] million."

When Wang Mei heard this, she immediately rolled her eyes.

Judging from Zhang Yu's word of mouth, it seems that the box office of [-] million is easy.

Since it is easy, what kind of miracle is it?

"The box office is nearly ten times the investment, isn't it a miracle?" Wang Mei said, "Why, you still think that the box office of "Crazy Stone" surpassed that of "Buried Alive", and even broke one billion."

Zhang Yu smiled awkwardly, he hadn't thought about it that way.

The box office of the original version was only tens of millions.

Of course, the market potential is different and has no reference value.

The original version was released, and there were not even two films with a box office of over [-] million.

What about now?
There are more than one billion.

What's more, the original investment was several million, and now it is tens of millions.

However, Zhang Yu's expectations for this film are not high, and he will be satisfied if it breaks [-] million.

[-] million, investors can get more than [-] million.

And Zhang Yu took the majority, plus other copyrights are the income, then this film can make him [-] million.

Even if not, it's probably not far away.

A movie earns [-] million yuan, what else is there to be dissatisfied with?

"What's more, you don't know why the investment and production cost of "Buried Alive" is so high?" Wang Mei then laughed, "Forget it, let's not mention this! If your movie beats Chengzi Media's "Feng Shen", I will apply to the company for a bonus for you."

"Then thank you, Sister Hua." Zhang Yu said with a smile.

"You don't like that little bonus either."

Wang Mei seemed to think of something, and then she smiled dumbly.

How much bonus can he apply for?
Zhang Yu's social status is not low now.What's more, he is also the biggest investor in this movie.

"Who would think that money is too much?" Zhang Yu said with a smile, "Besides, Sister Hua doesn't really think that a small-budget film like ours can beat Orange Media's big production, right?"

"Who knows!" Wang Mei smiled, "Why, you don't have confidence?"

"Crazy Stone" is a big hit, and her position in the company will be more stable.

After all, she is the producer and producer of this film.

If this low-budget film really overwhelms "Fengshen", then her reputation in the company will be even greater.

No matter how famous Wang Mei was in the past, when she came to Wansheng Film and Television, she still had to talk about her achievements.

The internal competition of Wansheng Film and Television is also very fierce.

"After all, it's a big investment!" Zhang Yu shook his head and said, "If "Crazy Stone" wants to beat "Fengshen", there is only one possibility, and that is "Fengshen" has a good reputation. It really hits the street, no The kind that came out black."

"If it's just average, it's not impossible to be hacked so badly." Wang Mei said flatly.

Zhang Yu didn't answer, just smiled.

He obviously heard it from Wang Mei's words.

This is the rhythm of hacking "Fengshen"!
However, happy to hear.

You can hack me, why can't I hack you?
Zhang Yu won't dissuade him, it's fine if he doesn't encourage him.

The word-of-mouth reputation of "Fengshen" may really be just average.It's not impossible to be so dark that it hits the street.

If word of mouth hit the street, it would be so black that his reputation would collapse.

Don't underestimate the power of the navy.

Friday, August [-]th.

"Crazy Stone" and "Fengshen" are just released.

The two films are now thoroughly linked.

The promotional momentum of "Fengshen" is astonishing, and "Crazy Stone" has accumulated excellent word-of-mouth by virtue of its screenings, and the momentum is not much weaker.

However, "Feng Shen" is undoubtedly much more than the filming, and won [-]% of the filming.

For the lineup first.

"Crazy Stone" followed with [-] percent.

In addition, there is another film "Ling Long", which has been released for half a month, and the film schedule is still as high as [-]%.

And this film is now approaching the billion mark at the box office.

Perhaps, it will become the highest-grossing film of this summer, and it will also become the fifth film with a box office of more than one billion.

The three films accounted for more than half of the lineup.

For the rest of the films, there are new releases and those with exhausted potential.

Regardless of whether the latter is not mentioned, the former will not have any impact on these three films unless there is a dark horse.

However, "Ling Long" was released half a month ago, although its potential is there, the attention has declined, and it is far behind the two films "Feng Shen" and "Crazy Stone" that were just released.

Therefore, when the film was released, the public's attention was undoubtedly attracted by these two films.

After the film was released, Zhang Yu didn't do any more publicity.

Ning Yuan took the main creator to the road show.

However, there are still a few more games to run, and I guess it depends on the response after the release.

If it's good, maybe a little more.

No, then there is no need.

Roadshows also cost money.

Of course, the money is not paid by Zhang Yu's studio, but by Wansheng Film and Television, the publisher, which is a publicity cost.

"It's fine if you don't promote it, but you are pulling me to increase the box office for your competitors?"

In the corner of a movie theater, Yang Ruoxue whispered to Zhang Yu.

"How much box office can the two of you contribute?" Zhang Yu said, "Look at it, you have an idea. Besides, we haven't watched a movie together for a long time."

"Didn't you watch it together last week?" Yang Ruoxue smiled.

"That doesn't count." Zhang Yu curled his lips and said, "It doesn't feel like a couple watching a movie at all."

"Today?" Yang Ruoxue said.

"Oh!"

Zhang Yu was speechless for a moment.

His purpose of coming here is probably just to know whether "Fengshen" is as he expected.

If you really want to watch the movie as a couple, rather than "going together", I am afraid that the first choice is not this "Fengshen", but "Linglong", which has been released for half a month.

"Couldn't you just say yes, or something like that?" Yang Ruoxue curled her lips and said.

Zhang Yu was dumbfounded.

Why didn't I think of this?

never mind!

Am I, Zhang Shisan, the kind of scumbag who tells lies to coax girls?

The seat next to you will be filled soon.

Zhang Yu and Yang Ruoxue stopped communicating immediately.

Although they wear masks, they are still easy to be recognized.

Zhang Yu obviously felt that the fans next to them had seen the two of them several times.

If it wasn't for the dim lights in the cinema hall, I'm afraid he would have been recognized long ago.

Alas, the distress of becoming famous is unavoidable after all.

The movie starts soon.

In the movie hall, the attendance rate is still very high. Although not all seats are full, the empty seats are almost all on the edge of the front row.

Not many.

"Ok?"

At the beginning of the film, Zhang Yu's eyes lit up.

Dark Wind?
There seems to be nothing wrong with this.

"Feng Shen Yan Yi" is depressing, the saint regards all beings as ants
Forget it, why convince yourself?

Anyway, this movie is different from Zhang Yu's imagined "Fengshen".

The picture is dark, and then the costume props are designed.
Depend on!
How do you feel that there is some western style?

And this feeling is getting stronger and stronger.

then
Well, it's a real hammer.

This film is in the style of western magic and dark.

Even the clothing design is more western.

Zhang Yu didn't like this style.

Maybe other fans like it!
It's unclear how many fans will like it.

However, the audience around him didn't seem to like it very much, and some people couldn't help complaining.

"Isn't it too desolate?"

"It could be that the trees were being cut down too much at that time."

"People in the Yin and Shang Dynasties wore this?"

"It may be to tell Westerners that what you wear as gods is what our ancestors wore, and they were still eliminated."

Half an hour into the film, the scene changed several times.

In addition to the magnificent interior, the exterior is either desert or Gobi, and there are not many plants and trees.

Zhang Yu really didn't pay attention.

As a result, the fans next to him complained about it, and immediately felt that it made sense.

Really want to know what they eat?
Sand, or pebbles?
Halfway through the film, Zhang Yu immediately remembered the film adaptation of "Feng Shen Yan Yi" in his previous life.

Although the protagonist of that one is Lei Zhenzi, this one is Ji Fa.

But the films have great similarities.

This film also gathers all the film elements that the audience can think of.

Chinese mythology, Western magic, comedy, romance, action, monsters, horror, etc., are simply a hodgepodge.

A movie can actually mix so many elements, it's full of slots and it's hard to say what it looks like.

Feng Yongqing's level should be more than that?
Is he really a director?
But thinking about it, it doesn't seem impossible.

Feng Yongqing is good at urban comedy, and it seems that this is the first time he has directed this kind of mythological film.

It seems that no period films have ever been filmed.

No wonder the costumers inside couldn't help but make people complain.

This is not what he is good at.

Aesthetically, it is obviously very problematic.

Single and narrow, the styling is almost exclusively black.

At the end of the film, the two armies of Xiqi and Yin Shang confronted each other, and it was really hard to tell who was who?

Of course, the clothing designs of the two sides are not the same.

When the film is over, the story naturally does not end.

There are also easter eggs, and it seems that a sequel is ready to be made.

"Fengshen Yanyi" is so huge that even if it is adapted into a movie, it cannot be condensed into one movie.

Is there really a sequel?
The film invested [-] million yuan, Zhang Yu still believed it.

It is estimated that there is no water.

In Zhang Yu's opinion, this movie is at least much better than the previous one.

Although it was a fresh start, it did not reinvent itself arbitrarily, at least in terms of respecting the original, this film is much better.

This film is only developed from the perspective of Ji Fa.

At the beginning of the film, Ji Chang is trapped in Chaoge, and Bo Yikao goes to rescue him and dies.

The story is mainly about how Ji Fa rescued Ji Chang, and then sent troops to attack Shang.

Finally, a big battle came.

Visually it's still quite stunning.Of course, it would be even better if we could distinguish ourselves from the enemy.

The logging merchants won the first battle.

There are also many foreshadowings in the film to prepare for the second battle.

Of course, whether there is a sequel or not, it is estimated that watching this film will pay off.

If it loses, I'm afraid there will be no second part, let alone a follow-up.

"how?"

Yang Ruoxue asked Zhang Yu in a low voice.

Zhang Yu smiled without saying a word, just motioned Yang Ruoxue to watch the reaction of the fans.

"can not tell?"

Yang Ruoxue looked at it, then shook her head in doubt.

At the end of the film, the fans left, and they left without complaining about the film.

"Although he didn't say anything, his expression was full of loss and confusion." Zhang Yu said with a smile.

"Confused?" Yang Ruoxue asked doubtfully.

It's easy to understand the loss, but what are they confused about?

"This movie is completely different from the "Fengshen" they expected." Zhang Yu said, "Maybe they doubt whether this movie is adapted from "Fengshen"?"

Adapt it?
right!

The characters are all from "Feng Shen Yan Yi"!
The story seems to be too!
Ji Chang was imprisoned in Chaoge, and Bo Yikao died tragically at the hands of King Zhou.

Of course, there are differences.

For example, Ji Chang fled back to Xiqi, but in the original book it was not Ji Fa's credit.

But with Ji Fa as the heroine, such an adaptation seems to make sense.

"Are there any words about 'Fengshen' in the film?" Zhang Yu smiled, stood up immediately, and said, "Let's go too!"

The two of them were afraid of being recognized, so they waited for the people in the theater to finish before getting up and leaving.

Yang Ruoxue thought about it, and it seemed that there was really not a single word about "Fengshen" in the film.

This shouldn't count as peddling dog meat, right?
After all, it was adapted to "Feng Shen Yan Yi".

"what?"

"Zhang Thirteen!"

"Yang Ruoxue!"

Zhang Yu and Yang Ruoxue had just walked out of the theater holding hands when someone suddenly recognized the two of them in surprise.

I go!

Zhang Yu couldn't help complaining in his heart.

You are so excited!
Get excited, why are you screaming?
Well now, the two of them were immediately surrounded.

And it just so happened that there were media reporters not far away who were doing investigations, so they immediately surrounded them and asked the two of them head-to-head.

"You guys come to the theater to watch a movie when you have time. Did you watch "Fengshen" just now?"

"Why did you choose to watch this film? Is it because "Feng Shen" is the biggest competitor of "Crazy Stone"?"

"What do you guys think of this movie?"

"Is there a threat to "Crazy Stone"?"

"Director Feng Yongqing said to use this movie to tell you and Director Ning what a good movie is. Do you think this movie is a good movie?"

 Next month's update time will change a bit, and it will be in the early morning, so let's try to guarantee the bottom line is still [-]!If there is a change, put it at night.
