Stop it, boss, I’ve never seen a movie made like this.

Chapter 177 177. Stealing the box office

With the release of two movies in the same period, the box office battle has also reached a fierce stage.

The single-day box office performance of "Return to Youth" on the second day has exceeded 2 million.

"My Wolf Girlfriend" is also on the rise, with a single-day box office of 2.3 million, still firmly beating "Rejuvenation".

But in the eyes of insiders, Bangzi got off to a bad start this time. If it were normal times, they might be able to dominate the Xia Kingdom film market, but this time they will definitely suffer when they encounter "Return to Youth".

This movie is a rival!
The box office is expected to be tied on the third and fourth days.

Sure enough, it was the third day.

"Return to Youth" and "My Wolf Girlfriend" both happened to maintain a box office level of 2.4 million, which is the same! !
Fans of Chen Li and Liu Wanxin cheered instantly.

"It's so handsome! As expected of me, I watched it three times. This movie is really good."

"Wang Anrou is also a good little girl. She whispered and watched Chen Li, and she actually made such a masterpiece."

"There is no need to compare Na Bangzi's movie. They just have the same schedule, but IMHO, the level is still too different."

"The correct answer upstairs is that before watching "Return to Youth", I was also moved by Bangzi's movies, but after watching Chen Li's movie, I realized that their plots are really hypocritical."

“I really highly recommend you go see it.”

"."

When encountering a good movie, people will naturally have the desire to share it, which is why they don't want to see "Rejuvenation" buried.

However, on the third day, things changed again.

The single-day box office of "Return to Youth" was 2.5 million. Although it increased by 1000 million, the single-day box office of "My Wolf Girlfriend" reached 2.7 million, starting to overtake it.

Those who originally cheered were a little stunned, not realizing that Bangzi's movie still had such great potential.

But it shouldn't be. Although "My Wolf Girlfriend" is still very popular and has a large number of young girls supporting it in China, its popularity on all major platforms has actually been surpassed by "Return to Youth".

The gap between the two sides shouldn't be widened, right?
Could it be that the movie "Return to Youth" was a hit but not a box office hit?

This kind of situation often happens in the film market. In Hollywood, there are "Once Upon a Time" and "1995", which are all masterpieces that have won numerous awards and received numerous praises, and the production costs are not low. However, the final box office is not satisfactory, and it is said to be a disastrous failure. Not an exaggeration.

Therefore, netizens immediately thought of this possibility and felt a little regretful.

It's obviously such a good movie, why can't it do well at the box office?Don’t you have any vision?
At this time, many negative reviews began to appear on the Internet.

"It was so boring that I fell asleep watching it. What a crappy movie."

"We watch movies just to have fun and to feel good. "Rejuvenation" has nothing to do with it. I don't like it anyway."

"It looks good, but I just don't like it."

"It's boring. Why don't you watch "My Wolf Girlfriend" to heal yourself?"

"."

These negative reviews seem to appear suddenly, constantly refreshing in the comment area.

Some netizens who did not know the truth were also confused.

What's going on? Is it good or bad?
Wang Anrou also looked very depressed and couldn't lift her spirits after arriving at the company.

"I didn't expect that looking at these data is like looking at stocks. It's so worrying."

Liu Wanxin said: "Your results this time are acceptable. They are already great. Don't worry too much."

Others also offered words of comfort.

If other movies had a single-day box office of 2 million, smoke would have been emitting from the ancestral graves, and they would be sighing like this.

Chen Li walked over and frowned when he looked at the data. "We'll take a look at the box office tomorrow. If the growth is still very slow, there's something wrong."

"what is the problem?"

Everyone looked over curiously.

"Stealing the box office!" Chen Li said seriously.

In the previous life, this kind of situation happened in the film market all over the world, especially in the years when the domestic film market developed wildly, there were endless movie shady cases like stealing box office.

Some theaters do not use machines to issue tickets. Instead, they use handwritten tickets to secretly get a piece of the pie.

There are also cases where movies steal the box office from each other. The most common thing is that you bought tickets for movie A, but ended up getting tickets for movie B.

The water here is too deep, and the hospital and some film producers have ulterior motives. Ultimately, they are just trying to make more money.

This is what the victim and the producer don’t want to see the most. It’s like digging out flesh from one’s own body. Not only is it painful, it’s also disgusting! !
Everyone present was stunned when they heard what Chen Li said.

Disbelief written all over his face.

Wang Anrou jumped up like her hair was exploding and said angrily: "If they dare to steal the box office, this matter will never end!!"

After saying that, she hurriedly ran out. She wanted to go home. She owned a theater at home, and she would definitely not steal her box office. That could be used as a reference value.

Liu Wanxin asked in surprise: "Is this possible?"

Chen Li nodded: "It's almost as good as ten."

Sure enough, the next day, the box office hit another record.

"Rejuvenation" hasn't changed much, it's still around 2.6 million, but "My Wolf Girlfriend" directly broke [-] million!
This is simply a miracle! !

Not to mention Bangzi's movies, it is usually difficult for Hollywood movies to break 3 million in a single day in China, unless it is a popular schedule.

Fans in the baseball circle are excited.

There is no doubt that Bangliu is about to rise! !

Although Chen Li's movie still receives rave reviews, and judging from the purchase of tickets by movie fans, ticket sales are still tight, but the box office growth is not large, which can be said to be very stable.

This is embarrassing and tepid.

Inside the Xingchen Cinema Line office.

Wang Anrou compared the data of her own theater chain with the data of other theater chains, and she noticed something was wrong at a glance.

The film's tickets were not enough to be sold, the theaters were full, and the box office had already surpassed "My Wolf Girlfriend". This was also the case in most theaters, but for a few theaters the situation was the opposite.

Obviously the amount of films scheduled is about the same.

When Wang Chenghan saw this, he did not dare to delay. He immediately arranged for his professionals to conduct comparison and research, and as expected, he also found clues.

In the past, the price increases of Bangzi movies were almost the same, but after the release of "Return to Youth", the price increases increased significantly, and they all increased at night.

Wang Chenghan was also angry. His granddaughter had finally made a movie and had good results, but these people were so greedy that they even reached out!
He didn't say anything, and immediately arranged for people to go to those theaters to collect evidence. After he almost understood the methods used by the other party, he reported it to the domestic film department.

At the same time, some netizens on the Internet noticed something was wrong and posted about it.

#Unexpectedly, Bangzi Movie actually stole the box office of "Return to Youth"! ! #
In the post, a netizen went to the cinema to buy tickets to support "Rejuvenation". The printed ticket was also from the movie. Originally, this was nothing, but when he was taking pictures to record, he accidentally pressed the scan button, but the ticket was scanned. The barcode displayed is the movie "My Wolf Girlfriend"!

He just realized something was wrong!
After this post was exposed, it immediately shot to the top of the search list.

The whole network was in uproar.
