"Huang Bo is so awesome. One person plays two roles. I don't think it's inconsistent at all, as if they are two people."
"The weak and helpless look of the clone who appeared first was so well done, it was so heartbreaking!"
"Yes, it's so pitiful."
"Li Qian's imagination is really big. I had been guessing for a long time, but I didn't expect it to be a clone!"
"I always thought it was time travel or time reset."
"That robot is so warm. It must be Lu Xiucai's voice. It's so healing!"
"This setting is really awesome. I don't know where Li Qian got so many ideas in his head."
"It was painful to watch from the middle, but the rest is still very touching. It's so difficult to have a friend like a clone who can trust your life."
...
On the second floor of UME Huaxing Cinema, audiences came out one after another in the No. 2 screening room.
More than three hundred spectators came out, and many of them were excitedly discussing the plot of the movie.
The news of the premiere of "Moon" here can be seen in the entire cinema, and other viewers naturally know that they have just watched the premiere.
"How about "Moon"? Is it good?"
"Is it a real science fiction movie?"
"Is there really only Huang Bo as an actor? Will it be boring?"
Some loyal movie lovers present, regardless of whether they knew him or not, just gathered around them and asked them about the movie in a familiar manner.
As for the audience who watched the premiere, as the first group of people in the country to see the movie, some were very proud and began to show off, constantly talking about how good the movie was.
"Let me tell you, this time is definitely worth the ticket price. I will wait for a late night snack and come back and watch the midnight show again. There are still many parts that I don't understand."
"It's an absolute science fiction film, all the scenes are on the moon, and the hero dies in the end."
"Brother, please don't spoil it!"
"The male protagonist died? I didn't want to watch it for a moment. I didn't expect that Li Qian would also play a cruel trick!"
"No way, died on the moon?"
"Oh, one died, and the other returned home. It was absolutely not cruel. The rest is so touching."
"Yes, it's not cruel at all, it's very touching."
"That's right, Healing Xiang's movie is so beautiful that it moved me to tears."
Those who care about "Moon" think this is unreliable.
"real or fake?"
Looking at the exaggerated and artificial expressions of these people, and then thinking about the death of the male protagonist, there is a high probability that they are going to be tortured.
"By the way, why did you say you returned one?" someone asked again.
"Two Huang Bos appeared from time to time in the trailer. One died and the other returned."
The spoiler was exciting for a moment, and the show-off viewers immediately took the initiative to introduce the plot to them, "Listen to me, in fact, those two Huang Bos are not the real him, they are all fake..."
However, he was immediately interrupted.
"Here, don't spoil it, please be a little more ethical!"
Spoilers are the most annoying thing, and there is no sense of expectation at all.
However, both Huang Bos are fake. What is going on?
"I want to know the plot of the movie, but I also want to avoid spoiling it, so I won't tell you anymore!"
With that said, the audience member who wanted to show off went back to the front desk and bought another ticket for the midnight show, planning to watch it again.
Among the more than 300 spectators, there were about ten people. I don’t know if they didn’t understand it or something, but they all bought tickets.
Seeing that none of the people who watched the on-demand screening criticized it. Some people wanted to go to the zero-point screening again. How could other viewers not know that "Moon" would at least not be bad.
For a while, everyone rushed to the front desk, scrambling to buy tickets for the midnight show.
...
At this time, Guangxian held a banquet in a nearby hotel to celebrate the successful release of the movie.
"Congratulations to Director Li. The response from the audience at the premiere was very good. This "Moon" will surely exceed 100 million again."
"It's not just breaking 100 million, this movie is perfect. I think it's very possible to break 200 million."
"This is a science fiction film, a genre that has never been seen in China before. Director Li is the first mainland director to make a science fiction film. He has created a new genre."
The CEOs of various companies congratulated Li Qian one after another. Although many of them did not understand movies at all, they still had the ability to appreciate movies as an audience.
The movie lasts for more than 90 minutes. You can devote yourself wholeheartedly to the plot. Your mood will change with the development of the plot. You may be depressed, helpless, and finally moved.
Such a movie, with Li Qian's fame and the reputation of being the first domestic science fiction film in the new century, will definitely not be low at the box office.
"Then thank you bosses for your kind words." Li Qian clinked a drink with everyone and said with a smile.
At the banquet, Li Qian undoubtedly became the center of attention for everyone.
Another blockbuster movie is about to appear, and the bosses of various companies are jealous. They look at Li Qian with eager eyes.
At the same time, he was also full of jealousy towards Wang Changtian. Guangxian had just entered the film industry. In less than two years, he relied on Li Qian to gain a foothold and just grabbed a share of the market from Huayang and Bernard.
Last year, one movie exceeded 100 million, and this summer's two movies had a box office of over 160 million. The response to the premiere of "Moon" was stable, and it also exceeded 100 million.
The three movies together will have a box office of at least 300 million.
It can be said that the 300 million box office was all contributed by Li Qian. Apart from Huayang Media and Bernard, only Chengtian, which produced "Red Cliff", has a market share that exceeds this figure this year.
It can be said that Li Qian has single-handedly supported Guangxian's film business, and Guangxian's distribution channels are also based on the box office sales of those three movies. With the ability to sell box office, theaters are arranging movies.
, will also relatively favor a certain company.
Jealousy, you can even say jealous, even Yu Dong is no exception. Bernard is not having a good year this year, and the box office of the two blockbusters he leads are not ideal.
Wang Changtian was very useful. His little eyes hidden behind the lenses were always smiling and in a good mood.
With Li Qian's trump card, Guangxian's film business will be able to catch up with Huayang and Bernard in at least two years.
He cannot be like Zhang Weiping, a short-sighted person who sits on the golden mountain of Zhang Yimou but fails to fully use it.
The banquet ended amidst laughter and laughter, and Li Qian also returned home.
As soon as he entered the door, Tong Liya, who was lying on the sofa in the living room, ran over and put his slippers on.
"Yaya, why are you back? Where is the crew?"
Li Qian was a little strange. "Nightclub" was being filmed in Huairou Studio. Less than half a month after filming started, the heroine ran back and Yang Qing couldn't stop scolding her.
Li Qian had no involvement in the preparation process of the film "Nightclub", but he only wanted a heroine for Tong Liya.
The role is simple and the personality is single, so Tong Liya has no problem playing it.
"It's your movie's premiere. I took a leave of absence and will return to the set in two days. The director also agreed."
Tong Liya took Li Qian's arm and was a little embarrassed that she had left her post without permission.
Li Qian pretended to sigh, "I'm not even famous yet, I'm already a big name, and I'll be famous again in the future."
"Who is acting like a big star? He still has a day off from work. He only took two days off after filming for half a month."
Tong Liya snorted, "I didn't come back until your movie was released."
"By the way, how was the premiere?"
Li Qian smiled and said, "The audience response has been very good. The box office will definitely not be bad in the early stage. It just depends on how strong the trend is."
Hearing what Li Qian said, Tong Liya felt relieved. "Mei Lanfang" will be released in the next week. Cheng Kai's famous name is second only to Zhang Yimou in China. He is not an easy opponent.
After washing her face, Tong Liya made a cup of hangover tea, sat on the sofa and talked about some interesting things that happened on the set of "Nightclub".
"Teacher Xu Zheng is also quite fun off-screen. The crew relies on him to liven up the atmosphere."
He also complained about the director, "You don't know, Director Yang Qing is so boring. He has a sad face every day and I rarely see him smile. Without Teacher Xu Zheng, the crew would be really bored to death."
"...You don't go to the set just to have fun. After you finish filming, you'll have plenty of time to play afterwards."
"I'm pretty good at acting, and I don't have many negative moments."
Tong Liya said quite proudly that the role of Tang Xiaolian, the heroine of "Nightclub", is just an ordinary working girl who is somewhat smart. The character design is simple, and he has no pressure to play the role.
"Li Qian, how much box office can the movie "Nightclub" get? Is it possible to get five million?"
Tong Liya is still very concerned about starring in her first theatrical movie. Although she took two days off, she has never been lazy on the set. She wants to follow in Li Qian's footsteps and become a big star.
"Five million is too little. You don't have confidence in me."
Li Qian stretched out his hand and drew a number, "As long as the publicity does not delay the promotion, 30 million is no problem."
"Thirty million, can you sell that much?"
As a movie heroine, Tong Liya is not so confident.
It seems that these tens of millions at the box office are just a number in Li Qian's mouth, but when I think about it, Guo Fan's debut film also sold more than 30 million at the box office. It seems that as long as it is a movie related to Li Qian, it will be a big hit at the box office.
Li Qian shook his head, rubbed his palms on Tong Liya's slender waist, and said with a smile, "You are stupid. Use my name to promote it before the release. The audience will naturally be interested, and the theaters will also arrange the films appropriately.
, at least it won’t be ignored.”
Fame, in the current film market, can be said to be the most important factor for a film, and there is absolutely no one.
Great directors and superstars are hard currency in the film market.
"The Promise" has a bad reputation, and it was easily the box office champion of the year. It swept the entire Lunar New Year season and completely crushed Chen Kexin's "If Love" which had a good reputation.
Which one of "The Golden Jacket" and "The Banquet" has a better reputation, it still swept all the movies of the same period.
But if "The Promise" had been made by an ordinary director, the box office would have been discounted in half, and the audience would have walked into the theater for Brother Cheng Kai.
Although Li Qian's reputation is far less than that of the three major directors, all of his films have been successful and have good reputations, and the two films he has produced have also received good box office and reputation reviews.
"Nightclub" will use the title of producer and accept an interview casually, and the exposure will rise quickly.
And the movie itself is indeed quite funny. It is a skillful narrative flow comedy with black humor, which is much better than those vulgar comedy movies that make money.
Since the movie is limited to a small space, the conflicts between characters will be amplified and the laughter will be stronger.
It's funny, not vulgar, and the audience accepts it well.
As long as Li Qian helps with the promotion and the film schedule is in place, the box office won't be far behind.
Otherwise, with this size and without a relatively big selling point, the distribution company will not release many copies, and the film schedule will probably not reach ten points, and it will not be able to sell much box office at all.
""Nightclub" will be released in March or April next year. By that time, "Cohabitation" is probably almost ready. It will be released during the Lunar New Year period. If these two movies go well, they may be able to earn 100 million yuan next year.
box office."
Li Qian roughly expressed his expectations and analyzed, "After this, if there is another similar movie, the first line will be stable, and no actress in the same age group will be able to match you at the box office."
"One hundred million?"
Now Tong Liya really couldn't believe it. Two movies sold 100 million yuan, and it was an unknown actress starring him. It was incredible.
However, seeing Li Qian's determined tone, Tong Liya also fell into longing and began to look forward to "Cohabitation in Time and Space" and asked about the script.
"Su Lun should have almost finished the idea, and it's time to start writing the script. It takes one month to write the script, and three months to write the storyboard + preparation, which is almost the same."
"I haven't started writing the script yet. It's been more than three months. Is Su Lun doing embroidery..."
As a senior student who is one year older than Su Lun, Tong Liya couldn't help but complain, which also brought her back to reality.
The script hasn't been written yet, so don't think about selling it, it's too far away.
It usually doesn't take Li Qian a month to write a script, but it took Su Lun three months to conceive it.
"Slow work will lead to careful work. If you can't rush this kind of thing, let her do it slowly."
Li Qian was not in a hurry. Su Lun immediately started writing a script as soon as he got the idea, and revised it over and over again, which surprised Li Qian.
It is a good thing to be calm and calm.
...
We hadn’t seen each other for half a month, so we went to have a conversation on the sofa, which lasted for more than an hour.
At a quarter past twelve, Li Qian received a text message from Wang Changtian, announcing that the box office for the zero-hour show was released.
"Moon" was kept secret before its release, but it also whetted the audience's appetite. The box office at zero-point screenings was much higher than that of "Frequency of Life and Death".
2.7 million, which is three times the original "Frequency of Life and Death" and much higher than the horror film "Jaws".
Horror movies have a natural advantage at zero-hour screenings, not to mention the popularity of "Jaws".
"Moon" was able to sell 2.7 million in the zero-hour show, which is enough to prove that the early publicity work was in place to allow tens of thousands of viewers to enter the cinema at midnight.
"How many?"
Tong Liya also came over, looked at the number, and exclaimed, "The zero-point field is so high?"
This show alone at midnight sold 2.7 million box office. How high is that for a whole day?
"They are all movie theaters in the core areas of various cities, with an attendance rate of 73%. The premiere of UME China Star alone has 1,200 seats in 5 halls, and 1,000 tickets were sold for the five after-hours screenings. But it is definitely impossible to do it all day long.
This attendance rate.”
Looking at the relatively simple data in the information, it is slightly higher than Li Qian expected, and the box office on the first day will definitely not be lower than expected.
But Tong Liya is still shocked by this figure. How many movies can't sell less than 2.7 million in one day.
Li Qian saw her red lips slightly open, forming an O-shape, and felt a surge in his heart.
The palm on Tong Liya's slender waist moved around unconsciously, feeling the warmth in her hand.
