Chapter 20 The special screening that finally begins
On the popular film review website, although the score of "The Gift of Room No. 7" has dropped a bit, it is still as high as 8.5 points, and the overwhelming praise is enough to prove that the movie is basically half successful.
.
Of course, half of the success is because nowadays, a thousand screens sounds like a lot.
But in fact, it should be noted that there is only one show for a thousand screens, and it is a midnight show.
At the same time, many of these shows are in small theaters.
This is why the attendance rate for more than a thousand shows was more than half, but the box office was only over two million.
And with the increase in the number of moviegoers, a lot of "tap water" began to appear in movies!
Related comments are gradually increasing.
In fact, in the Chinese market, good movies, as long as they can be successfully released, will usually not be buried.
"The Gift of Room 7" may not be considered a true classic, but at least, this movie is excellent in all aspects.
In addition, Li Yihe's "The Gift of Room No. 7" is not a piece of cake. At least, although the cast is not as good as those big productions, it still has a certain effect by taking a different approach.
In fact, the effect exceeded expectations.
If before this, Li Yi's previous reputation for "Bitter Life" would have mired the film's promotion, then when the film's reputation really exploded, Li Yi's previous experience became
part of the publicity!
After all, the drama of the prodigal son returning home is still very popular.
At the same time, "The Gift of Room No. 7" can still be said to be a father-son battle, and it is also very entertaining.
In addition, the promotion of "The Gift of Room No. 7" took a different approach. At first, it was promoted under the name of a domestic horror film.
Those posters and so on are talked about by many viewers on the Internet.
Of course, it's because the movie is really good, otherwise, it would have been sprayed out long ago.
Beijing, Times International Cinema.
Today can be said to be a big day for "The Gift of Room No. 7", because after today's special screening, tomorrow "The Gift of Room No. 7" will officially begin expanded screenings.
Although the number of films scheduled is still not comparable to those of blockbusters, it is no longer limited to midnight shows, and if the follow-up attendance rate is good, there will be more films scheduled next week!
At 7:30 in the evening, it can be said that this is the first prime time show since "The Gift of Room 7" was released.
Although there is only one show, the audience is invited to attend for free, and the media and film critics from all walks of life are even given red envelopes.
But this screening is quite crucial for "The Gift of Room No. 7".
Many people may find it strange, don’t you have a reputation among the audience? Why do you need to do so much?
How many audiences can a film critic's film reviews influence?
Wouldn’t the media report it themselves?
Anyone who thinks this way really doesn’t understand this industry.
In inviting these people, on the one hand, I hope they can say good things about the movie and praise it.
But more importantly, for example, these film critics, many of them are columnist film critics in some media, or they are self-media people with many fans.
If you don’t invite or pay me, why should someone write a review of your movie?
Literati in ancient times also talked about writing fees, let alone in the commercial era?
And these comments themselves are part of the propaganda.
The same goes for media people.
They will take the initiative to report it, but only if the movie itself is influential enough, will they add icing on the cake.
If you are not invited, it may be reported, but the time may be much later, and the movie may not be released by then.
But when the invitation comes, it's different. Whether it's a good review or a bad review, they will report it, and these are also the key to promoting the movie!
In the screening room, more than a hundred people came.
But what Li Yi didn't know was that there was one very special person among this group of people.
That is because it is in a relatively dark movie theater. Otherwise, this special person would definitely stand out from the crowd no matter where he is placed.
Because her tall figure, 1.75cm tall, and high heels can make countless male compatriots feel inferior.
With long straight black hair and exquisite facial features, she is looking at a stunning beauty. The pink-rimmed glasses on the bridge of her nose and the two large hoop earrings hanging on her flawless earlobes make her even more charming.
In this way, compared to her appearance, her figure is more attractive.
The purple slim-fitting shirt has a busty bust, and the buttons on the chest are in danger of being popped open at any time.
Wearing a white skirt, paired with flesh-colored stockings, and high-heeled crystal sandals, she was the target of attention and salutes from the male audience members beside her from time to time even in a dark cinema.
It's a pity that this beauty's reaction was a little strange. She seemed a little nervous, and she would lift the pink glasses frame on the bridge of her nose from time to time.
His eyes frequently drift toward the creative members!
"Beauty, are you a film critic? Or a reporter?" At this time, a middle-aged man showed a smile that he thought was handsome and chatted.
The result was that the beauty rolled her eyes.
"What does it have to do with you?"
The middle-aged man retreated a little depressed.
But I felt even more nervous inside, and I still couldn't help but sneak a glance in the direction of the creative members from time to time.
However, the fashionable girl acts like a thief every time, as if she has done something wrong and is afraid of being discovered.
The person next to her was filled with questions.
It's a pity that beautiful women are beautiful, but obviously, this is not something they can care about.
The person sitting next to the beauty is Du Xianghai, a well-known online film critic in China. With his sharp review style, he has attracted millions of followers on Weibo!
It can be said that he is the number one person!
Sitting with Du Xianghai was another film critic, Fang Long. Unlike Du Xianghai, this one has always been a master of finding faults. No matter how good the reputation of any movie, he can find some faults in it.
Of course, this is a professional requirement. It does not mean that blindly praising is a good thing. Sometimes, the topic needs to be controversial.
Therefore, Fang Long’s business is no weaker than Du Xianghai’s!
The two naturally started chatting.
"Do you think this movie is really reliable?" Du Xianghai asked Fang Long with a smile.
"Hey, the battles in the last "Bitter and Happy Life" were even bigger than now. What was the result? Haha!" Fang Long said sarcastically.
"However, the reputation of this movie on the Internet is very good. I took a look and it doesn't look like I bought it!" Du Xianghai shook his head and said.
"That doesn't prove anything. Do you think a dog can change its habit of eating shit so easily?" Fang Long had a bad mouth as always.
The next moment, Fang Long suddenly felt a chill on his face, but someone poured a cup of Fat House Happy Water directly onto his face!
Fang Long immediately looked at the instigator with anger!
