After seeing the box office data for that day, Shen Lianjie couldn't believe his eyes.
It was like seeing a ghost.
Seven million?
What!
Seven million?
What data is this?
Are you sure this is my second day result of "Capital"?
Shen Lianjie wiped his eyes, then took the report and looked at it again, and checked it carefully several times, but when he saw this astonishing number again, he was dumbfounded.
Zhang Tong: "Subway Station" 15 million.
Xu Xiaoming: "War Night" 13 million.
Li Tong's "Enemies at the same table" 11 million...
Shen Lianjie's "Capital" 7 million...
"Enemies", which was originally ranked fourth, unexpectedly surpassed "Capital" with great ferocity, and even surpassed the box office of 4 million that day to be ranked third...
As for myself, I became the fourth child, and I was only three million away from the "Crazy Life" which had a low investment cost of seven million...
this……
Everyone is making progress, and the box office has reached new highs, but "Capital" bucked the trend and actually dropped three million...
This is no longer a feeling of cheating or cheating, this completely makes Shen Lianjie feel like his world is spinning.
However, after all, he is still an old revolutionary. Shen Lianjie took a deep breath, and then opened the movie ratings on Tomato...
It was okay if he didn't open it, but when he opened it, he actually vomited blood.
He knows that his movie's online ratings are not good, but this data...
The top score was "Buried Alive" with a score of 9.5, and the second score was "Subway Station" with a score of 9. Then he looked at it in order, and finally found his "Capital" in the twentieth place.
The final score of "Capital" is 4.2, and this number seems to be trending downward again. It is basically on the same level as those domestic bad movies with a score of 3.0...
Not to mention the comments below, they are full of abuse and all kinds of criticism, and you can’t even find a single positive comment.
Shen Lianjie closed his eyes, and his dizziness became even stronger.
"I guess I am the director who has been scolded the most among the movies released this year..."
"This..." The assistant looked at the online reviews and hesitated.
"Tell the truth, yes or no!" Shen Lianjie opened his eyes and stared at his assistant.
"That's not true..." The assistant shook his head after looking at the director's negative reviews.
"no?"
"The one who got scolded the most was Lu Yuan, the director of "Buried Alive"...Brother Shen, you are still ranked second." The assistant pointed to the top position on the negative review list and looked at Shen Lianjie.
"What? "Buried Alive" has such a huge reputation, why did he get scolded for being on the list?" Shen Lianjie looked at the comment below strangely, scolding Lu Yuan for deducting 800,000 yuan of investment, and immediately closed his eyes again.
At this moment, he didn't know whether to cry or laugh.
Of course he didn't believe it.
Making a movie with 800,000 yuan is already a joke. Withholding 800,000 yuan to make a movie with 200,000 yuan...
What to shoot with?
Take a shot with your head?
"Brother Shen, how about I contact Liu Fangfei and the others and ask them to arrange some activities? This won't work!"
"Well, go ahead! It's not the last minute yet."
"good."
"Oh, by the way, what is the box office of "Buried Alive"? Are there any statistics?"
"It's still four million."
"..."
After hearing this number, Shen Lianjie felt uncomfortable.
One made a loss at the box office, while the other made a huge profit...
This is really...
Very complicated.
…………………………
September 3rd.
It’s still a hot day for box office competition.
But movie fans are a little confused.
Movie fans who had their tickets in hand that morning and were about to go to Tianhe Cinema to watch a movie were suddenly confused.
They discovered that "Buried Alive" was suddenly removed from the shelves, and posted a compensation notice that took a long time to correct the problem.
What to rectify?
Is there anything that needs to be corrected?
What kind of international joke are you making?
At first they thought the film had violated some regulations and thought it was banned by the radio and television. After all, the scale of some literary and artistic films is a bit difficult to control and indeed they would be reported and re-examined. But when they went to the radio and television to ask , but I haven’t seen any approval from Radio and Television to make "Buried Alive" rectified...
this……
What's going on?
Could it be that the theater chain removed it without permission?
Are you sick?
Don't you want to make money anymore?
The movie fans were naturally quite dissatisfied, so they went to all the major forums, major websites, and major Weibo to continue making noise. Unfortunately, Tianhe Cinema and Lu Yuan became the targets of the fans' attacks, and even Lu Yuan's own number of negative reviews is more than twice that of Shen Lianjie, and he is as stable as an old dog at the top of the negative review list!
No one can understand what this operation is.
After lunch on September 3rd, "Buried Alive" was screened on Tianhe Cinema again, and everything returned to normal. At the same time, Tian Qin and Wan Jia also appeared in the film "Buried Alive".
After the noisy netizens on the Internet saw that major theater chains such as Tianqin and Wanjia had "Buried Alive" and that the quality of "Buried Alive" had been completely improved, they finally understood why it was waiting for the second half!
It turns out that the entire film of "Buried Alive" was re-edited and rectified, which improved the quality to a higher level!
After seeing this scene, there were a lot less trolls scolding Lu Yuan on the Internet. Lu Yuan finally and unfortunately dropped out of the top list. As for Shen Lianjie, he finally succeeded in occupying the first place on the director's negative review list...
Lu Yuan breathed a sigh of relief after seeing him drop out of the top ten!
This comes at a price!
fifty thousand!
Lu Yuan spent a total of 50,000 yuan to re-edit the sample film, and rectified some details again overnight, which brought the quality of the entire film to a higher level.
Although this operation is very cool and no one has ever done it before. After all, it will affect the box office revenue, but this is what Lu Yuan did.
And he did it firmly!
Why?
Lu Yuan was criticized every day on the Internet for deducting investment, even to the exaggerated 800,000 yuan, which made Lu Yuan's balls hurt.
He can't let his reputation be ruined like this.
What can he do?
Could it be that he only deducted 200,000 yuan?
This kind of thing really cannot be clarified. After all, this is a disguised admission that he is a very greedy person...
How is this possible?
I finally made up my mind to spend a lot of money on rectification!
At least judging from the reactions of netizens, you can be considered innocent?
Half day box office?
Anyway, it has already paid back, so half a day will not have much impact...
……………………
In the early morning of September 4th, box office statistics came out again.
When the assistant came to Shen Lianjie's office with the box office report, he saw that Shen Lianjie was a little haggard.
"What's our box office today!" Shen Lianjie raised his head.
"Ten million!"
"Huh, it seems that promoting Liu Fangfei is somewhat effective. At least she has many die-hard fans."
"Yeah, by the way, Brother Shen, there's something I don't know whether I should say...I think it might be important."
"What? Say it!"
"Well... the box office of "Buried Alive" on the third day was 6 million..."
"Six million won't threaten us, right?"
"Because he was removed from the shelves for half a day, the screening was actually not one day, but half a day..."
"What! Half a day? Six million in half a day?"
Shen Lianjie's eyes widened and he couldn't believe his ears.
"This is the report, do you want to take a look?"
"..."
When Shen Lianjie received the box office data of "Buried Alive", his whole body was shocked. At this moment, he seemed to think of Fatty Wei's obscene smile...
