On the first day of its release, there were not many viewers who had watched the movie. However, the story of "Shark Tank" was novel, and many viewers were willing to share their movie-watching experience with others.
However, near noon, there was an article in the Xinlang Entertainment section that caught the attention of many viewers. It said that it was Tang An who wore multiple hats and completed the filming of the movie alone.
This issue has also been raised by other viewers, but they have not gone into too much detail.
Even those three film critics focused on the movie itself, regardless of whether Tang An was hyping it up or not.
"The best movie in the entertainment industry in 2004, the funniest joke, and the worst hype!"
The title uses three "most" words in a row, making the audience curious and click on it.
"This reporter previously watched "Shark Beach" at the San Sebastian Film Festival in Spain. This movie is undoubtedly very exciting. It may be the best horror movie I have ever seen. In the end, the movie also won the best
The two awards, feature film and audience choice award, are well deserved!”
"But at the movie premiere last night, I saw a big joke. Except for the heroine, all the main creative staff of the movie were also directed by Tang An. Films participating in the film festival do not need to include the main creative personnel and the cast list.
Naturally, the author didn’t know that all of them were recorded at the time, but this is simply the most ridiculous thing in the world. It is impossible for one person to complete a movie alone, even if it is a movie shot with a portable DV, at all times and in all countries.”
"I feel a little heartbroken. This should have been a classic movie, but it was tarnished because of the director's hype. Did he think the audience would be curious and walk into the cinema because of this?"
The person who posted this article was Xinlang reporter Li Zhiye. He was really angry. Why did he have to resort to crooked ways to promote such a good movie?
But he still ignored the curious nature of human beings. Some people actually went to the cinema after reading this news.
"It's so hilarious. There's only one person in the entire crew. If making a movie was this easy, I'd go too!"
"I heard that Feng Xiaogang's "The Night Banquet" has more than 300 people in the crew. Isn't this nonsense?"
"I'm a little curious now. What kind of movie is the best movie of the year? What kind of movie deserves this title?"
"Reporter Xinlang's film review is still worthy of trust. I hope this reporter's tastes are similar to mine!"
These days, audiences still have a relatively high degree of trust in reporters. Just because it's the best movie of the year, many viewers have already started to think about when to watch it.
...
There was a lot of quarrel online, but Tang An didn't know it. He took Yang Mi to eight movie theaters that day without stopping. He also watched eight movies with him and contributed some movies to himself.
I have no time to watch the news.
However, some fans mentioned that the crew gave a positive answer regarding him alone.
At 6 o'clock in the afternoon, a group of three people arrived at the last cinema of the day. At this time, China Film also calculated the box office again and sent it to Tang An's mobile phone.
620,000!
Tang An was stunned when he saw this number. He confirmed it several times and resisted the urge to call to confirm.
Lin Sheng should not be mistaken about this trivial matter, and it is unlikely that he would joke with him.
That means the box office has increased by 460,000 yuan in one day, and the trend is already very good!
Based on this momentum, it is estimated that today's box office will exceed one million, which is stable. The previous goal of seven million can be raised, and it may even exceed ten million!
At this time, Yang Mi was complaining again, "Brother An, can we go back after we finish visiting this cinema?"
When he first came out, Yang Mi was very interested and signed autographs for fans, but after running around for a day, he became a little bit too much.
"Why, you can't stand it anymore? We're still wandering around the capital. If you travel all over the country in the future, you'll be the only one to suffer if you travel to one city a day!" Tang An turned to look at her and said with a smile.
"But my feet are already very sore!" Yang Mi said with a wrinkled face.
Tang An looked at Yang Mi and Xu Ruoyun. They had obviously not had such an experience and their bodies were not used to it.
"Then let me tell you good news. The box office of our movie has reached 600,000, and it is estimated that it will exceed one million today!" Tang An said with a smile.
"Really?" Yang Mi immediately became energetic after hearing this and asked, "Can there be a million box office today?"
"One million on the first day is already a very good result. As long as the reputation is good, there is great hope for it to exceed 10 million!"
Xu Ruoyun also knows the significance of one million on the first day, not to mention that this is not a film by a famous director or star. If it can achieve this result without any popularity, it is basically guaranteed to exceed ten million.
"It should be stable. Let's go. After running to the last movie theater, go back and have a good sleep. You'll know when you wake up tomorrow!"
...
At 7 p.m., the premiere ceremony of "Kekexili" directed by Lu Chuan was held at UME International Cinema in Dongcheng District.
Compared with Tang An's "Shark Beach", "Kekexili" was much more grand. All Huayi's stars were present and walked on the red carpet.
Lu Chuan confidently greeted each guest there, seemingly regaining his confidence.
"Mr. Wang, you are here!"
Wang Zhongjun, chairman of Huayi Media, also came to support the event.
"Director Lu is very energetic. I hope the audience will respond well today!"
"Don't worry, Mr. Wang, "Kekexili" will definitely bring different shocks to the audience!" Lu Chuan raised his head slightly and said confidently.
"That's good. We have quite a few opponents during the National Day holiday. "New Police Story" has just been released. "2046" has already received 6 million at the box office within 3 days of its release. Although "Cheung Side" has a high box office, it does not occupy the scheduled film schedule. "Shark Beach", according to China Film Statistics, the box office in the early morning hours has already reached 160,000 yuan!" Wang Zhongjun said worriedly.
Now Huayi is not yet the entertainment empire of later generations, and the investment of 7 million in "Kekexili" is not small, and it is very heartbreaking to lose it.
"There are 160,000 in the early morning hours?" Lu Chuan was also a little surprised. It is very rare for a movie with no reputation to win more than 100,000 in the early morning hours!
After a quick chat, Lu Chuan took out his mobile phone and skillfully opened Xinlang, the largest portal website in China, to see what he had discovered.
When he saw the partial article saying that there was only one person in the cast of "Shark Beach", Tang An, Lu Chuan laughed.
That Tang An really used all kinds of gimmicks. Why not just act it yourself and replace the heroine with the hero? Wouldn't it be more attractive?
Lu Chuan knew that this would definitely arouse criticism from many directors in the industry. After all, there are hundreds of people on the crew, and you shot the movie by yourself. Even if you are bragging, don't be so cruel.
What would the uninformed audience think?
Look at the director of "Shark Beach". If one person can make a movie, do you people still need hundreds of people to make a living?
