Qi Haoyun tapped the keyboard with his fingers like flying, and said in the Feixun group: "We will meet in the theater then!"
As soon as his message was posted, a large number of responses immediately flooded the group.
"I'm on my way!"
"Haha, I'm in a taxi too, but Huainan Road is very congested now and it's difficult to walk on the road."
"Hey, I'm going to watch "A Chinese Ghost Story" with my girlfriend tonight, aren't you envious?"
"I'm jealous, I'll bring two of them!"
"I'm going to kill you, you beasts. I haven't even eaten yet, and you're all out?"
"I'm ready to leave too. I can finally see Brother Mouse."
"Then be prepared to vomit."
Although his friends took the opportunity to tease him, Qi Hao was not angry at all and laughed loudly: "Get out!"
Qi Hao is a member of the Jinling 6 Morning Support Fan Group. Because of his online name, his seniority and his easy-going temper, everyone affectionately calls him Brother Mouse.
Qi Hao can be regarded as one of Lu Chen's earliest fans. When Lu Chen started the live broadcast at [Starlight Show], he was one of the viewers, and he also rewarded Lu Chen with a lot of star points.
Later, Lu Chen fell out with [Starlight Show], and Qi Hao followed him to [Whale TV]. He liked Lu Chen's music very much, and he can be called Lu Chen's die-hard fan.
The most important thing is that Qi Hao once studied music and is considered a semi-professional. He often comments on Lu Chen's songs in forums, post bars, and Feixun groups. His analysis is well-founded and interesting, because he has also made a lot of comments about it.
Shaofeng has a very high prestige among the fan group.
Although Qi Hao does not hold any position in the Jinling 6 Morning fan support group, his appeal among the 5,000-strong support group is very strong. It was he who initiated tonight's movie-booking event and got the honor.
Great support from friends.
A few days ago, Qi Hao put forward a suggestion in the group. Everyone jointly funded crowdfunding and booked a large theater to watch "A Chinese Ghost Story" on the day it was released, as a way of supporting Lu Chen.
As soon as he put forward this suggestion, the group members responded overwhelmingly, and countless people expressed their intention to participate.
And the fundraising was completed in a very short period of time.
Qi Hao then ran to contact a large local cinema and made a reservation to book a hall that could accommodate 700 spectators. However, even so, there were still many members who did not make it, or who could not grab a spot even if they did.
Many members of the group raised two copies at that time, both of which wanted to bring their boyfriends/girlfriends to watch together, thus occupying the quota. There were too many people to enjoy, which made those who also wanted to join the fun very dissatisfied and started making a fuss in the group.
In desperation, Qi Hao had no choice but to crowdfund again and booked two other theaters in the same theater during the same time period, but still could not meet everyone's needs.
But there is no other way, because this theater only has so many films of "A Chinese Ghost Story" scheduled, and the time has been specially adjusted to meet the demand for reservations. Otherwise, under normal circumstances, the three theaters will not play one film at the same time, and the rate is not high.
Gao's new film.
The film schedule of "A Chinese Ghost Story" in the three major domestic theaters has been announced on the official blog a few days ago. The average is 15.75%, which is already very difficult.
As a co-production between China and Hong Kong and one of the films supported by Hong Kong New Film, "A Chinese Ghost Story" enjoys a basic 10% weekly film scheduling guarantee in domestic theaters, but the specific time and higher film scheduling rate cannot be guaranteed.
The 5.75% paid out is the result of Chenfei Media’s efforts. In addition to the public relations for the theaters, publicity also played an important role. Lu Chen and Filia Chen’s connections in the circle also played a certain role, and their time was not wasted.
The arrangement is too poor.
The strong performance of "Battle of Vulcan", which is also currently being released, has seriously squeezed the market space of "A Chinese Ghost Story". If "A Chinese Ghost Story" does not perform well, the film schedule rate will drop at any time.
Theater chains and movie theaters are very realistic, and the most important factor that affects their film schedule is the box office. Since "Battle of Vulcan" was released on March 20, it has already exceeded 800 million in box office in nearly two weeks.
In the absence of strong competitors, this Hollywood blockbuster has a high film schedule in theaters. It is said that American Superstar Pictures intends to apply for an extension from the State Administration of Radio, Film and Television to further increase box office results.
Although very few Hollywood blockbusters receive postponement treatment, the chance of "Battle of Vulcan" being successful is very small, which also fully demonstrates the status of this Hollywood blockbuster in the current domestic film market.
The more popular "Battle of Vulcan" is, the greater the pressure it will bring to "A Chinese Ghost Story", which is released today!
Qi Hao, who has been following the blog, knows this very well.
He also participated in a spat with film critic Wang Xiaoxu. Although he had confidence in Lu Chen, he still believed that Wang Xiaoxu's analysis made sense.
But this cannot shake Qi Hao's support for Lu Chen at all. He came forward to organize this private movie viewing event, which is a reflection of this support!
Qi Hao, who lives alone, had dinner at a small restaurant outside. After eating, he hurried to the cinema.
The theater reserved by the fan support group belongs to the Guangzhou Cinema Line and is located in a large shopping mall. It is very close to Qi Hao's rented single apartment, only a 10-minute walk away.
This light and shadow cinema has been open for less than a year. The equipment and facilities are very new and the service is quite good.
The movie tickets reserved for the theater have already been sent to everyone's mobile phone via Fetion. After showing the theater staff the identification code that scanned the movie ticket, Qi Hao received his own bucket of popcorn and a cup of Coke and strode in.
Hall No. 1.
The spacious hall is brightly lit, and more than half of the 700 seats are already occupied. Although the movie theater schedule is very tight, even if it is reserved, there will be no more room, but this situation still makes everyone happy.
Hao was stunned for a moment.
You know, there are still almost 20 minutes until the movie starts!
"Eh? Isn't this Brother Mouse?"
Just as Qi Hao was looking around to find his place, a fan who came early spotted him and recognized Qi Hao, whose photo had been exposed in the Feixun group earlier.
He is relatively well-known in the fan group. When the other party shouted, almost everyone turned to look over.
Qi Hao instantly became the center of attention.
Most people have never seen Qi Hao in person, so most of them have strong curiosity in their eyes.
This made Qi Hao feel very embarrassed. He could only smile awkwardly and wave his hands: "Hi, good evening everyone!"
The next moment, the scene exploded.
