Chapter 569: What Else Do You Want to Say After the Box Office Results Are Released?
Millions of people watched.
This number of people is breaking the record of the live broadcast room over and over again.
This is not tens of millions of people, but tens of millions of people watching online.
There must be too many people here.
It's so scary.
In the live broadcast room, Lin Xing also followed the routine of sweeping the floor and boarded dozens of accounts such as Zhalang Entertainment, Zhalang Movies, and Zhalang Entertainment Ji, and then promoted his new movie.
"If you want to watch movies on May 1st, please watch "The Streets". At the same time, we will also help promote the four movies on May 1st: "The Wire", "Accidental Collision", "Anti-Fraud 2028" and "The Hunt"."
…
"You're laughing so hard at me, Lin Xing, don't you forget your water-carrying persona at this moment?"
"I really didn't expect that Lin Xing would sweep buildings and help promote other movies."
"It's really done by the underworld. You know which of the movies nowadays doesn't have someone behind the scenes? This Lin Xing is so out of the underworld."
"That's right. It's just that Lin Xing is promoting "Pursuit of Fire". I didn't expect that he would also promote several other movies."
"Lin Xing may feel that the Duan Shui character cannot be defeated at any time."
…
The live broadcast room was buzzing like crazy. As for "Pursuit of Fire", it was better, because there was not a lot of publicity for "Pursuit of Fire", so Lin Xing's promotion was just the icing on the cake.
But several other films are low-cost, so their publicity expenses are not much. Now Lin Xing's promotion is really a timely help.
Regardless of whether it was useful or not, Lin Xing did this really well.
After all, even if Lin Xing doesn’t mention these movies of theirs, no one else can say anything about him. You must know that Lin Xing’s movies are being released at a critical moment. Isn’t it normal that he has no time to care about others at this time?
But he never expected that Lin Xing would help them publicize it while sweeping the building.
In this way, it can be regarded as interaction with many movies.
"Chinese movies will definitely be good."
"Our Chinese movies will definitely get better and better."
"Let's support Chinese movies together."
…
Many movies use their official accounts to give general information, and then promote them individually.
All in all, this time the popularity is really high.
Of course, some people also said in a weird way: "Don't worry, Chinese movies are over a long time ago. It's useless for you lousy movies to stick together to keep warm."
This kind of weirdness is useful for other movies, but it is useless for "The Streets".
Lao Zhong said directly: "You can say that other movies are bad, but "Hot Streets" is definitely not a bad movie. I think this movie is not only not bad, but can save the entire May Day movie. As for "The Wire" "The Pursuit" is not a bad movie, it can only be regarded as an ordinary garbage movie. "
"Hahaha, Lao Zhong, you'd better not praise me at all. What you said about "Pursuit of Fire" is just garbage. What do you want me to watch??"
"Good guy, I originally thought that Lao Zhong had changed his gender, but it turns out he's still as sharp as ever."
"I just like Lao Zhong's sharpness. Take a look at what other film critics said about "Pursuit of Fire"? Basically they don't talk about the content, they only talk about how good the fighting scenes are, and they only talk about Chen Sheng's hard work. This kind of review Looks like it’s just right.”
"Yeah, to be honest, this kind of thing is really fucked up. Damn it, one of the current film critics says that every one of them is a fucking idiot, with all kinds of lack of moral integrity. Only Lao Zhong is the same."
"Yes, so I am willing to believe Lao Zhong."
…
This also belongs to word of mouth.
Just like the first batch of audiences will be unconcerned after the release of Lin Xing's new movie, this trust comes from Lin Xing's reputation.
As for film critics, it's the same. You have to know that most of today's film critics are just amateurs, so they have no moral integrity at all.
I won’t talk about other small film critics. Some of them are indeed objective. After all, they can’t get it right even if they want to.
Apart from this, among the major film critics, Lao Zhong is the only one.
That is to say, she really only evaluates any work subjectively, and if it is good, it is good, and if it is not good, it is bad.
Of course, Lao Zhong has no brainless support for Lin Xing, but that is also because Lin Xing's works have never disappointed.
Take this time's "The Streets" as an example. Basically, many people currently praise and support this movie.
Anyway, everyone really liked this movie.
Compared with the critical reviews of "Pursuit of Fire", "The Streets of Fire" is really based on the real reactions of passers-by.
Everyone is currently waiting for updates on the box office.
The discussion about today's box office in the data network forum is quite fierce, and everyone is waiting for the latest box office to be released.
Not everyone thinks Streets of Fire will surpass The Wire.
After all, film schedule often determines everything.
Why do some movies during the Spring Festival even spend money to secure their schedule? ? ?
Isn't it just because the quality of movies is often about the same, and at this time, the box office of those with more movies scheduled will naturally be strong.
"Here I go, I thought "Hot Streets" would be awesome, but I didn't expect it to be this awesome."
"Good guy, I'm afraid the box office of "Pursuit of Fire" won't be too high."
"I almost thought this was a joke. With such data, "The Wire" is already upside down. Tomorrow, his film schedule will be cut in half."
…
It has to be said that everyone did not expect the box office data to be like this at this time.
The first-day box office of "Hot Street" easily topped the list, and the box office on weekdays actually exceeded 100 million.
That's right.
On weekdays, the single-day box office exceeded 100 million on the second day of release.
In addition, the box office of "Fire Pursuit" on the first day of release was only 20 million.
You should know that the screening schedule of "Fire Pursuit" is quite high, but such a single-day box office is simply a complete mess.
The total box office of "Fire Pursuit" in the days of previews has reached 50 million, and now with the 20 million on the first day, it means that the official box office has accumulated only 70 million.
You have to know that this is still under the situation of previews competing for screenings.
It can be said that "Fire Pursuit" is actually almost killed by previews.
In addition, even if they control the reputation, it is still affected.
In short, for many people, "Fire Pursuit" is already considered a bad movie in their hearts, so of course they will not watch it.
"Hahahaha, I'm dying of laughter. This "Fire Pursuit" can be lifted."
"According to the current situation, it's hard to say whether "Fire Pursuit" can reach 200 million in the final box office."
"I didn't expect it to be so exaggerated. Even this movie claims to save the market. I remember An Yifeng's mother said at least 3 billion in an interview?"
"I'm so happy. An Yifeng is fucking bloody again. I told you, he is a box office poison."
...
Most people really didn't expect "Fire Pursuit" to be so weak and flop to this extent.
You have to know that for low-cost movies, breaking 100 million is already good.
Even many art films breaking 100 million is a great thing, just like the previous "Killing Ading" played by Lin Xing.
However, for commercial films, for a movie with an investment of even hundreds of millions, if you only break 100 million, or even 200 or 300 million, it often means a terrible flop.
This time, the film "Fire Pursuit" invited many movie stars, and even the scale of production was quite large. Before, everyone thought that the box office would be over 2 billion yuan.
Yes.
Although "Fire Pursuit" felt that 3 billion yuan was definitely out of the question, 2 billion yuan must be reached.
Because of this, during the May Day holiday, their publicity and promotion expenses had already been spent tens of millions.
Nowadays, the promotion of movies must be powerful, otherwise they will die directly.
For this reason, Bohai Film and Television actually treated "Fire Pursuit" as the number one production in 2025.
There is no wrong version in the 16-9 book and bar!
But I never expected that although the preview was not powerful, it was still within the acceptable range, but the first day of the release would be so miserable.
Before today, Hong Jun, the vice president of Bohai Film and Television, did not take "Hot Street" seriously at all, because in his opinion, his movie was the biggest savior of the May Day holiday.
After all, there are too many movie kings and queens, and these actors are very popular with the public, not to mention that each of them has a lot of fans.
So, just call on fans to rush for pre-sales, isn't it easy for the box office to exceed 100 million on the first day of release? ?
The result... is just this? ?
"What's going on?"
Hong Jun looked at the publicity and promotion and said: "What's wrong with your publicity and promotion? So much publicity and promotion fees have been spent and there is not even a sound?"
The person in charge of publicity and promotion said helplessly: "Mr. Hong, it's really not that our publicity and promotion are not strong, and we have tried our best, but I really didn't expect the audience to resist so much..."
"Resist?"
Hong Jun was a little angry and laughed: "We didn't use traffic artists in this movie at all. We used all acting schools. Even An Yifeng is not a traffic artist. Her reputation is also very good. Tell me, why do the audience resist?"
You know, if such a blockbuster was put on the market before, some resource celebrities would definitely be stuffed in, and even some traffic artists would be stuffed in.
It's just that this time, Bohai Film and Television is thinking of "Fire Pursuit" as their savior.
Yes.
This movie is not only to save the film market, Bohai Film and Television also wants to use this movie to save itself.
But now all this has become fun.
The person in charge of publicity and promotion said with a wry smile: "In fact, Mr. Chen really has no box office appeal anymore. The audience who likes him are now old, and it is even more impossible to go to the cinema..."
There is another thing, that is, everyone knows.
Mr. Chen has many bad movies, and he has sold too many feelings before.
The audience in the current film market does not buy the feelings, not only that, but also the audience does not buy the misery.
No matter how miserable you are, are you more miserable than ordinary people?
No matter how tired you are, can you be more tired than the old farmers? ? ?
In this case, the publicity and promotion of the movie actually needs to be as down-to-earth as possible, but all this needs to be backed by the quality of the movie.
Unfortunately, the quality of the movie "Fire Pursuit" is average, and on the other hand, they want to promote sentimentality, and actors such as Mr. Chen want to play the victim.
As a result, the audience has a rebellious mentality.
Not to mention the control of reviews during the preview, which really annoyed some passers-by.
With all these factors added up, it's hard for "Fireline Pursuit" to not flop.
At this time, many people think that if I want to watch it, I'd rather watch "Hot Street".
"So the market doesn't approve of it at all?"
Hong Jun said in disbelief.
He admitted that he was still a little careless, or he knew there were some bad reviews before, but isn't that the way the movie market works? ?
Often the voices of a few people are louder.
If you listen to the voices of these few people, you will definitely die miserably.
It is precisely because of this that Hong Jun doesn't care about the so-called discussion at all, he only looks at the actual situation.
But the actual situation is not optimistic now.
The box office on the first day was only 20 million, and this was when the screening rate reached 35%.
This box office already means that it's going to be a failure.
"Is there any hope?"
Hong Jun was a little unsure at this time.
The publicity and promotion said with some embarrassment: "It's not that there haven't been movies that have bounced back before, but at this time, the actors need to do their best to run road shows, do everything they can offline, and do everything they can to promote online. Lin Xing's several movies are all like this..."
"Then we..."
Hong Jun was about to say that we should also do our best to run road shows, but he suddenly realized that this wouldn't work.
Road shows are too time-consuming for old men.
You should know that most of the current actors in "Fire Pursuit" are old men except An Yifeng.
Even Hong Fei is actually over 40 years old, and the other action actors are in their 60s and 70s.
You let these old men run road shows desperately?
Let's put it this way, I'm afraid they will really die before they finish running.
"Let's see in the early stage, let An Yifeng run more..."
Hong Jun thought for a while and said: "After all, it's just the beginning. No matter what, we can never give up easily. I think "Fire Pursuit" still has great potential. Let's dig deeper."
As for the happiest people online at this time, it's Yang Tian's fans.
"Still bragging? Still bragging? Didn't you say that An Yifeng's sister Wang has returned? Where is your sister Wang?"
"Hahaha, I remember that An Yifeng's mother looked down on Yang Tian before, saying that a box office of 10 billion was nothing. I wonder if she wants to say something now?"
"Now it's really a matter of time. An Yifeng finally got up so hard, but now she has become a box office poison again?"
"I have said long ago that this woman An Yifeng is too yin. Except for Lin Xing, no one else can control her."
...
Yang Tian's fans are really happy. You know, they were ridiculed by An Yifeng's fans before.
Besides, these fans often quarrel.
"Mom, what else do you want to say?"
An Yifeng asked her mother. (End of this chapter)
