Chapter 151 The first day of horror at the box office
At first there was just laughter in the screening room.
"Funny, interesting!"
"Don't tell me, these jokes alone are worth my money to buy tickets, not to mention it's free now."
"I almost cried when those robbers showed love to each other, but in the end, they were all pretending to be dead. Damn it, it was so 666!"
"Also, there is that Patriarch Bodhi, how funny!"
"The Supreme Treasure actually burned Patriarch Bodhi's hand. It's so cruel!"
"You're talented, you're talented, you're just as good at playing as Lu Xiaobu."
“That’s so funny!”
"..."
But slowly, some people's expressions started to look wrong!
Some people are still laughing until their stomachs hurt.
But some people have tears covering their faces without even realizing it.
Some people even sat there in a daze, watching the plot on the screen, and no longer knew whether to cry or laugh!
Le Xiaojie is the person who doesn't know whether to cry or laugh.
He found the shadow of his whole life in it.
That nagging Tang Seng looks more like his parents, teachers, and seniors.
And that Sun Wukong, who was so arrogant, so wild, and so rebellious that he even wanted to join forces with the Bull Demon King to eat Tang Monk, wasn't he exactly the one who was extremely impatient and had a strong rebellious mentality at that time!
Sun Wukong, who lost his power and was reborn as the Supreme Treasure, is the man who is going through the hardships of society and university!
Suffer, be fooled, be moved, be betrayed.
When I met Bai Jingjing, whom I fell in love with at first sight, although it was not perfect, I never forgot it.
However, fate played a trick on people, and Bai Jingjing died, just like his relationship that ended in vain.
Zhi Zunbao is heartbroken, never forgetting it, and trying to save it over and over again across the long river of time!
However, he met Zixia.
Zhizunbao doesn't want Zixia, he is still thinking about Bai Jingjing.
However, Bai Jingjing saw the tears left by Zixia in Zhizunbao's heart.
Bai Jingjing knew that Zhizunbao loved Zixia, so she gave up and did not marry Zhizunbao.
Le Xiaojie knows that there are ten thousand choices for ten thousand people, Zixia or Bai Jingjing.
But if it were him, he would choose Zixia.
Thinking of this, Le Xiaojie tightly grasped Lin Rong's hand next to him - this was his Zixia!
He kept sighing in his heart - this is the real youth, the youth that cries and laughs, has joy and sorrow!
However!
The final and most uncomfortable choice for Supreme Treasure has come.
If you become Sun Wukong, you cannot love Zixia, but if you want to save Zixia, you must become Sun Wukong.
Seeing this scene, there were only two words in Le Xiaojie's mind - mature!
Maturity is painful, and maturity requires paying a price!
And after maturity, youth is gone!
"Look at that person, he looks like a dog."
With these words, the more than three-hour movie ended.
These words were like a knife, inserted directly into Le Xiaojie's chest.
He held Lin Rong's hand tighter and tighter, and Lin Rong even felt pain.
But Lin Rong didn't say anything, he just hugged Le Xiaojie gently: "I don't need an unparalleled hero stepping on colorful auspicious clouds to pick me up, I just want a silly Supreme Treasure."
At this moment, there is no desire between the two of them, only mutual understanding and love!
Those audiences who laughed from beginning to end are gone. In their hearts, this is a movie that makes people laugh, and it is worth it!
But more people were sitting on their seats, motionless.
They seemed to understand, but they seemed not to understand.
The somewhat messy plot pricked their hearts step by step.
So, they decided to watch it again!
…
When the first audience was watching "Westward Journey".
The first-day box office of "The Young and the Restless" is out!
160 million!
Although it is not the final statistics yet, this number is already shocking!
"Awesome, awesome, it is indeed a big production!"
"That's awesome! You can recover the cost within a few days!"
"The movie is good. If it has my goddess in it, it is a good movie!"
"My boyfriend is the most handsome!"
"By the way, what do you think the first-day box office of "Westward Journey" will be?"
"Let's say 0! No, no, no, it should be a negative number. They still have to subsidize other theaters!"
"Hahaha! It's okay! This is a record for a movie with negative box office."
The publishers of "The Young and the Restless" have already started a celebration party!
"Hahaha, it's great! I made money again this time!"
"That Chen Feiyang is completely over!"
"How dare you challenge us in the ring! Scared them to death!"
…
over time.
The final box office statistics are out!
"The Young and the Restless" box office: 190 million! Almost exceeded 200 million! Shocking!
"Westward Journey" box office: 43 million! Didn't even break through 50 million!
However……
This number made everyone panic!
What?
"Westward Journey" box office, 43 million!
How is this possible?
Aren’t all their tickets free?
No money will be charged unless someone watches it a second time!
With that kind of film schedule, that kind of screening room, and that kind of rubbish time period, someone actually watched it for a second time?!
What a joke!
The official account of "The Young and the Restless" posted a Weibo post.
"There is something! It's better not to deceive yourself."
Although this was not stated explicitly, everyone understood it!
"It turns out that "Westward Journey" is responsible for its own box office!"
"This is normal. Lu Xiaobu is a prodigal! I can't stand the shame of the bad criticism I made before, so I'll clean it up for myself!"
"Okay, you are indeed a prodigal!"
"..."
And this time.
However, some film reviews about "Westward Journey" quietly appeared on the Internet.
This film is divided into three categories.
Category 1: Very good to watch, definitely not a bad movie, a good comedy with lots of laughs, I am willing to spend money to watch it.
Category 2: I didn’t understand it, but I was very sad. This is a tragic film.
Category 3: I understand it, but I don’t want to say it. I want to watch it a few more times and want to drink!
Of course, there are also those who are sensationalist, know nothing, write random movie reviews, and make random comments.
However, this kind of person was completely criticized by people who have actually watched the movie!
Whether you think "Journey to the West" is a comedy or a tragedy, you will always criticize such people!
Gradually, these strange movie reviews began to attract the attention of netizens!
"What the hell? It's a comedy and it's a tragedy?"
"Can a movie in one step convey two completely opposite meanings?"
"Are you kidding me? This isn't the work of the navy, is it?"
"Forget it, it's free anyway, I'll see for myself tomorrow and find out!"
"..."
I have to say that if it were an ordinary movie, this kind of film review with completely unclear meaning would have been criticized long ago!
However, Lu Xiaobu's strategy of free viewing of "Westward Journey" directly wiped out this idea!
Most people have the same idea!
It doesn’t cost any money anyway, you’ll know after you see it for yourself!
Whether it is a comedy, a tragedy, or just those inexplicable movie reviews written by inexplicable people, you will know at a glance!
So with the mentality of the public netizens, a large number of viewers began to pour into the cinema the next day to watch "Westward Journey".
And the counterattack of "Westward Journey" also starts from this moment!
The counterattack, a completely crushing counterattack, a crushing counterattack that makes all filmmakers unable to understand, has begun!
