During my years at China Entertainment

Chapter 212 Mars Team vs. Mentor Team, Miracle on the First Day

On December 12, "The Martian" was officially released.

Early in the morning, before Wei Jin got up, he received a call from Han Sanping:

"Wei Jin, it exploded, it exploded, the box office at 0 o'clock was 452 million, it's incredible."

Han Sanping's voice was very exciting. This data is earth-shattering, five times that of "Heroes" and more than twice that of "Painted Skin".

Wei Jin also perked up after hearing this. This is definitely an incredible number. Although it does not represent the first-day box office, there is no doubt that it reflects the audience's enthusiasm for watching movies. Judging from this data, the first-day box office is really likely to create a new record. Miracle.

"Director Han, we have to hold on to such a beautiful result."

"Don't worry, we are already prepared."

At the same time, a large number of audiences are flocking to movie theaters, and many people prefer IMAX theaters. Sci-fi blockbusters are all about pursuing visual effects. Only those who can't get tickets will choose ordinary theaters.

After 20 months of production, a cost of 4 million, Shenzhou , a space walk, plus the premiere news of "The Martian" and super high ratings online, fans are full of expectations for this movie.

Several producers are paying attention to the news on Impression.com all the time.

Several main creators have also begun to gather to prepare for a nationwide tour. Wei Jin has not personally worried about these things for a long time, which shows how much attention he takes this time.

However, Wei Jin will not participate in this road show. He is busy with the post-production of his movie and can only provide material support.

The main creators saw Wei Jin's private jet for the first time and had a real intuitive understanding of his financial resources.

Zhang Ziyi was also shocked. Although his fiancé is a shareholder of Warner, his net worth may not be as good as that of Wei Jin. At least he does not have such a private jet.

The look she was looking at Wei Jin at this moment was also brilliant. If Jing Tian hadn't been by her side, she might have been close to him.

Hu Jun, Wu Jing and Zhang Yi on the side were even more unbearable, and it took a long time to come back to their senses.

The only one who can stay awake is Liu Tianwang. After so many years of filming, he has made a lot of money, not to mention that he has a lot of big friends in the circle, so he has seen the world.

"Mr. Wei, with your plane here, let alone ten days of roadshows, even one month, I won't even say thank you for your hard work."

The speaker was Wu Jing. After he got used to it, he gradually showed his funny nature. However, his words also made some sense. He could come and go freely on a private jet and fly to two cities in one day. There was almost no pressure, and the cabin was luxuriously equipped. It was completely Can rest well.

"If I really want you to perform on the road for a month, I'm afraid you'll have to make a paper man and curse me, right? By the way, when will the movie be released?"

"Spike" was originally scheduled to be released during the Lunar New Year, but after seeing the release information of "The Martian", Wu Jing decisively gave up the idea. He was not that stubborn.

"It's already set for January 1th. You can't beat me now, haha."

In fact, it is difficult for many films directed by Heung Kong to get good schedules if they are not controlled by mainland investors. For example, Zhou Xingxing, his films can only be released during the Spring Festival.

"Okay, don't be poor, Brother Hua, Brother Jun, everyone, take care on the road."

Liu Tianwang took the rest of the people to board the plane first, leaving space for Jing Tian.

"Brother, I'm leaving first, but don't miss me too much."

"Well, Tiantian, you should pay attention to rest. If you come back haggard, I will feel bad."

In fact, Wei Jin did not intend to let Jing Tian go on the road show, but the little girl insisted on it. In her words, the Mars Team is a team and no one can be missing.

It simply didn't take long, which would leave a bad impression on the other creators, so Wei Jin agreed.

"Okay, brother, bye, mua"

With a gentle tap on Wei Jin's lips, Jing Tian turned around and left -

In the afternoon, a large number of comments began to appear online, and the number far exceeded the thousands of people attending the premiere.

"Wei Jin is awesome. I can't believe it. This is a movie that can be made in China."

"Director Wei will never disappoint. I will cover all his future movies."

"I really believe that this film cost 4 million, and any less would be disrespectful to the special effects!"

At the same time, more than 8.5 people have rated it on Impression.com, and the rating of "The Martian" is as high as . Although it is lower than before, its gold content is undoubtedly higher.

Of course, there are also a lot of negative comments, which are nothing more than saying that the script is illogical and relies entirely on special effects.

Most of these comments are made by some film critics. If they don't pick out the specific points, they won't show their level.

But now is the Internet age, and the emergence of Impression.com has given the public a place to express their opinions. Soon these critical comments were drowned in the saliva of netizens.

However, Wei Jin had no time to pay attention to the war of words on the Internet. He was still working hard to raise his own fish.
-

After a fierce battle, Wei Jin held Liu Shishi in his arms and gently caressed the girl's delicate skin with his big hands.

"Master, the company will have a TV series next year. I will leave the female lead to you. I will negotiate with Mr. Cai."

Since he stole someone else's "Bu Bu Jing Xin" and slept with someone else's body, Wei Jin had to make some amends.

"Well, I listen to you."

After the pleasure, Liu Shishi's face was still flushed. Hearing this, he felt even more happy. This man is really good.

Last night, he sent himself a text message as soon as possible to comfort himself. Today, he called to invite him. He even cooked for himself and prepared dinner for him. Master Liu didn't believe it if he said that he didn't have himself in his heart.

"Teacher, do you still remember what I taught you last time?"

Hearing this, Master Liu rolled his eyes at the man, moved downwards slowly, and wrapped Wei Jin in his tenderness.

Wei Jinxiang enjoyed the tenderness of Liu Shishi's little mouth while turning on the TV and waiting for the broadcast of "The Voice".

This is the special performance of "The Martian" recorded on the stage of "The Voice" on the morning of the premiere.

Since the show is already halfway through and there is no blind audition for mentors, Team Mars can only participate in the show in the form of a kick-off, and the mentors and contestants do not know this beforehand.

After Hua Shao finished reading the advertisement at a super fast speed, he began to explain tonight's competition system.

"According to the previous process, the Harlem Mentor Team will face the Chen Yixun Mentor Team tonight."

The two instructors nodded, indicating that they understood and that they had been prepared, but what Hua Shao said next made them dumbfounded.

"But tonight's competition format has changed. It is no longer a two-team PK, but a three-team PK. Here we invite our kicking team, the Mars Team!"

In the background music of "Who Do You Love?", Wei Jin led the Mars team to make a gorgeous appearance.

The reason why this song is used is because the program team believes that it represents the starting point of the music of the Wei and Jin Dynasties.

When the people standing on the stage were clearly seen, the scene erupted into extremely strong cheers, and several instructors also looked surprised. "Hello mentors, I am the mentor of Team Mars. I am leading the team today to challenge you. By the way, who will take the lead first?"

As soon as Wei Jin opened his mouth, he was extremely arrogant. There were a lot of boos at the recording site, and the program's effect was immediately maximized.

"Yeah, yeah, I can't stand it anymore, it's too arrogant, Eason, you go first or me?"

Harlem is indeed an old variety show, and it instantly grasped the code of ratings.

"You don't have to prioritize, let's go together."

Wei Jin's words directly ignited the atmosphere at the scene, and the two instructors pretended to be extremely angry and vowed to defend their dignity.

The students in the team also came to their senses now. Knowing that this was a show, they all became excited and wanted to take pictures.

The final result is that each team will send one person to compete. After the three people sing, the audience will vote.

But the score is not announced immediately. Instead, after all the teams have finished singing, the total number of votes is added up. If the Mars team's score is less than the total of the two teams, it will be eliminated directly. Who told Wei Jin to be so arrogant about one vs. two? ? (I have been thinking about this competition system for a long time, please forgive me)

Then the remaining two teams will eliminate the contestants based on the number of votes each person received. This not only ensures that the Mars team will be eliminated, but also ensures the fairness of the competition between the two teams.

Wei and Jin sent Wu Jing in the first round. Although this guy is a tough guy in kung fu, he is actually a good singer.

The song "Serve the Country with Loyalty" was so majestic that it attracted many audience members to sing along.

In the second round, Hu Jun was sent. Even though he looks tall and thick, he actually comes from a musical family and his singing style is quite unique.

An Italian song "My Sun" directly caused the scene to explode. No one expected that Hu Jun had such a skill, even Wei Jin was quite surprised.

In the third round, Jing Tian was sent. A young girl made her debut as a singer. Her basic skills have not fallen behind over the years, and her level is still high.

The song "Little Lucky" instantly silenced the scene. Many women at the scene followed suit and even Wang Fei was intoxicated.

In the fourth round, Zhang Ziyi was sent. Although he is not a professional singer, he has released an album.

One of my own songs, "Tiannu Scatters Flowers", although the response on the spot was not intense, the singing level was still passable.

Zhang Yi was sent out in the fifth round. At this time, he was no longer unknown. Squad Leader Shi was famous all over the country. He attracted violent applause from the audience as soon as he appeared on the stage.

His father is a music teacher, who cultivated his musical talent since he was a child. Although he did not develop in this area, he also performed on stage many times when he was in the army, and his level was quite high.

The song "It's Not a Sin for a Man to Cry" directly shocked King Liu Tianwang at the scene. No wonder some people in later generations said that Zhang Yi should never be allowed to speak, because he sang the original song as soon as he opened his mouth.

Wei Jin didn't expect Zhang Yi to be so talented, so he thought about agreeing to his request to join the company.

In the last round, Liu Tianwang naturally appeared. The screams at the scene were deafening and about to lift the roof. Thirty years after his debut, Liu Tianwang is definitely one of the stars with the largest fan base.

The song "Today" was directly performed into a live chorus, and even Chen Yixun and Wang Fei stood up and sang along.

In the end, the results were tallied, and as expected, the Martian team had the highest score, but it did not exceed the sum of the two teams and was "miserably eliminated."

"I'm really sorry to have delayed everyone for so long in this issue. I came here today mainly to promote our science fiction movie. Is there anyone in the audience who can name me? If so, the creators can give him an autograph later. "

Wei Jin's words made the scene excited. Who the hell doesn't know "The Martian"? The sound of one after another was heard one after another, which was considered to be promoting the crew in front of the TV.

Wei Jin did not tell lies. The creators had already prepared more than 400 signed stills of "The Martian" and handed them to the staff for distribution.

"It seems that everyone has heard of this movie, so please friends at the scene and viewers in front of the TV, come into the theater and support "The Martian". We will see you there on December 12th! See you soon!"

The main creators bowed and slowly left the stage, and this special episode of "The Voice" came to an end.

"Teacher."

Wei Jin turned off the TV and patted Master Liu, who was lying on top of him and had fallen asleep. The little girl was exhausted.

"What's wrong?"

Even though Liu Shishi fell asleep, he was still working with his mouth reflexively. Hearing this, he opened his eyes and looked at Wei Jin.

"Thank you for your hard work tonight. Next, let my brother love you."

In order to save the little girl from exerting any physical effort, Wei Jin pulled her into his arms and chose to sit sideways.

Soon, Master Liu came to life again -

After finishing the road show for the day, the main creators hurried to another city. After checking in, it was already past 11 o'clock.

"It's almost time. Why don't we take a look at the box office before taking a break? I always feel uneasy without seeing the numbers."

Zhang Ziyi suggested that she was very concerned about the movie box office, and this was probably her personal record.

"Okay, I got almost enough rest on the plane anyway, so I'm not tired at all."

Wu Jing was the first to agree, and the others also nodded.

When everyone arrived at Liu Tianwang's suite, Jing Tian took out his laptop, logged into Impression.com, and refreshed the box office interface.

Not only the main creators, but also many people in the industry are paying attention to the first-day box office of "The Martian", and many filmmakers are waiting for the early morning of the 13th.

While waiting, a few people chatted with each other, gossiping, and chatting about the set. With the snacks shared by Jing Tian, ​​it was not that painful.

"Coming, coming, 4940 million, close to million, we have set a record. Sister Ziyi, Brother Hua, everyone, we have set a record."

Jing Tian was already a little incoherent, and the others also looked very excited.

"That's great. I'm full of energy now. I can't wait to continue the road show, but I probably won't be able to sleep tonight."

"Haha, you kid, just be proud of yourself."

The staff of several major investors who stayed up late waiting for box office data also cheered and took out their phones to report the results.

At the same time, major portal websites also quickly updated the first-day box office data of "The Martian."

“‘The Martian’ sold 4940 million on its first day, becoming a hit at the national box office!”

"The first hard-core science fiction blockbuster in China, "The Martian" sold 4940 million on its first day, setting a new single-day box office record!"

"The rise of domestic science fiction, "The Martian" has achieved both box office and word-of-mouth success, with 4940 million on the first day, setting off a science fiction craze!"

　A new book is on the shelves and the second update is here. I urge all book friends to subscribe and collect it. Thank you all!
