Rebirth of Hong Kong - 1978

Chapter 1444 The beginning of Waterloo?
After the premiere of "Untouchable Lovers", there were a lot of positive reviews, but there were also some strange comments.

However, because the premiere is at night and only one show is shown, most of the opinions will not be published until the next day.

And on the first day of the official release of "Untouchable Lovers", because of the previous foreshadowing, many people bought tickets to enter.

Although this is a literary and romantic movie, because of Lin Daoqiu's relationship, and there are no strong movies in theaters.

Therefore, this time, Xiangjiang Cinemas allocated [-] theaters for "The Untouchable Lover" to screen this movie together, which can be regarded as giving Lin Daoqiu a lot of face.

But because it is not related to action and comedy movies, and there are not many big names to help out, the most famous ones are the male and female protagonists, so the attendance rate was only between [-]% and [-]% at the beginning.

If it were an ordinary literary film that could achieve such a result, I am afraid that the director and producer would have been overjoyed for a long time.

But unlike ordinary literary films, the reason why this drama has attracted so much attention is entirely because of Lin Daoqiu's effect.

Among them, there are many fans who are used to watching comedies and action movies made by Lin Daoqiu before, and there are also fans who like Lin Daoqiu's movies because of the previous "Godzilla".

After they bought tickets and entered the theater with excitement, the plot of "Untouchable Lovers" seemed to be different from what they had expected.

If you are an audience who likes literary films, they usually pay attention to this type of film. When watching "Untouchable Lovers", they will pay attention to the plot and the details in the film.

And those audiences who are accustomed to comedies and action movies, the reaction to "Untouchable Lovers" seems to be not so good.

Even if Lin Daoqiu's filter is added to this movie, the audience of a movie of the genre like a romantic literary movie is not big, and it is already great to produce a good movie once in a while.

After the audience who bought tickets and came out after watching the movie, everyone's evaluation of this movie can be said to be mixed.

If it is replaced by Lin Daoqiu's previous action or drama or even special effects movies, even if there are occasional bad reviews, most people will give good reviews.

It's just that this time, although the positive ratings are not low, the proportion of viewers who don't feel anything about this drama, or think it's not good-looking, seems to have suddenly increased.

The next day, the first-day box office of "Untouchable Lovers" was officially released.

"Mr. Lin, this is the first day of box office for "The Untouchable Lover"..."

Fang Jinsheng put the box office statistics from Xiangjiang Cinemas on Lin Daoqiu's table.

Lin Daoqiu took a look at the box office that had been counted, but there was not much expression on his face.

"Untouchable Lovers" received 380 million on the first day.

If this momentum continues, the final box office of this drama will probably be around 4000 million, which is still a good place to think.

If it is close, it is not impossible for less than 3000 million or even about 2000 million.

"Understood, you go out and do something."

After Lin Daoqiu put down the box office statistics, he asked Fang Jinsheng to go out to work.

Fang Jinsheng didn't know what to say, because Lin Daoqiu had never missed a movie before.

It's just that this time the box office of "Untouchable Lovers" seems to be a little different from the previous situation.

"Mr. Lin, in fact, in terms of literary films, the box office of "The Untouchable Lover" is already very good. It has already broken the box office record of the first day of literary films of all dynasties, and it is even higher than the box office of most literary films. high."

Fang Jinsheng worried that the box office of "The Untouchable Lover" would make Lin Daoqiu unhappy, so he could only try to comfort him.

"What's the matter? You're not going to come to comfort me, are you?"

Lin Daoqiu didn't expect that Fang Jinsheng wanted to comfort himself, and he didn't know what to say for a moment.

Lin Daoqiu actually didn't think there was anything wrong with this box office. After all, compared with those popular genre movies, it was really difficult for literary films to compete with them.

Unless it is a plot plus extremely exaggerated special effects, then only the vast majority of the audience can be attracted.

Otherwise, taking Xiangjiang's film market as an example, the number of audiences would not be large. At this time, Xiangjiang's population is only a little over 500 million.

It is already incredible that a special film like "Godzilla" can exceed [-] million in Xiangjiang in this era.

For ordinary movies, basically around 3000 million is considered a big hit, let alone this is a literary romance movie.

So Lin Daoqiu didn't think there was anything to be sad about, but Fang Jinsheng and the others probably didn't think so.

After all, since the first "Young Master Qian", I have made big hits and created box office miracles in Hong Kong time and time again, so it is no wonder that they did so when the box office was not as good as they expected for the first time.

However, there are not a few people who think like Fang Jinsheng. After all, everyone is used to Lin Daoqiu's success and has long been accustomed to it.

And when "Untouchable Lovers" came out with a box office of 380 million on the first day, it can be said that everyone felt that the box office seemed very subtle.

Although it is definitely not very good, it can't be said to be bad. After all, in a year, I am afraid that a movie that can get a box office of 380 million on the first day can be counted on one hand.

It's just that everyone thinks that the box office of Lin Daoqiu's movie on the first day was at least 500 million, but now it's only 380 million, which is really surprising.

But no one said that the box office of 380 million has already broken the first-day box office record of a literary film.

Even if someone talks about this topic, there is no way to ferment it, as if it was naturally blocked by everyone.

"Lin Buling?The beginning of Waterloo? "

After the box office was released on the first day, there were even tabloids on the street with such headlines on the second day, predicting that Lin Daoqiu might have run out of talents based on the box office of a literary film.

If it was another director who got a box office of 380 million on the first day, I am afraid that they have already started preparing for the celebration banquet.

But on Lin Daoqiu's body, it seemed like he had suffered a big failure.

And such a topic is obviously easier to attract people's attention, so it was only published in the tabloids, but gradually, some medium-sized and even large newspapers began to discuss this topic.

Although most people don't think that the failure of a literary film will affect Lin Daoqiu, after all, this is not a movie he is good at, but you must know that in Xiangjiang, there are still many people who want to see Lin Daoqiu's failure.

And here, Golden Harvest and Dibao are definitely the two film companies that bear the brunt.

If Lin Daoqiu really started to turn into Lin Buling as the newspaper said, then they must be the happiest group of people.
