The box office exceeded 10 million in seven days. After it made news because someone imitated the plot of the movie and used a fake shark to scare people, it received 940,000 effective clicks and a box office of 4.7 million in three days!
In the 10 days since it was launched, the total box office has reached 15.2 million.
The record of "Sniper Phone Booth" is very close, and it will be broken in one day.
On the Internet, in addition to the continued popularity in major forums, there are finally media reports.
Even large portals like Xinlang began to report on "Jaws."
And it’s not the entertainment category, but the homepage of the website.
“‘Jaws’ Causes Summer Tourism Winter!”
Ordinary news headlines, nothing new, far inferior to those of some small media.
"Recently, a major online movie "Jaws" has been popular on video websites. As a movie exclusively broadcast on the Internet, it also adheres to the characteristics of the Internet, attracting the audience's attention with horror, curiosity, and blood.
However, there are only a handful of scenes where sharks appear in the entire movie "Jaws." It is this shark hidden in the dark that has had an unprecedented impact on the domestic beach vacation tourism industry. According to statistics, so far this summer, domestic beaches
The overall vacation tourism industry fell by nearly 20%.
If you have seen this movie, it is not difficult to understand its impact, because after all, it is related to the safety of tourists, even if it is affected by personal psychological factors.
The ferocious man-eating scene of the great white shark in the movie left a deep shadow on people. When people swim at the beach, they will inevitably think of the danger of being attacked by a shark.
Therefore, out of psychological fear and considerations for their own safety, people will unconsciously want to stay away from the beach. Therefore, tourists' psychological factors will affect tourists' choices to a certain extent, and thus affect the tourism industry.
Travel Trends.”
He was serious and dry, as if he was reporting social news.
But it is indeed social news. The beach vacation tourism industry has dropped by 20%, which is already a serious blow. You must know that it is the most important summer vacation of the year.
Other media are not as subtle as large portals like Xinlang. They can be as explosive as they want.
"'Jaws' is coming and the tourism industry will suffer heavy losses!"
"The tragedy caused by a shark has severely damaged the national tourism industry!"
"National tourism disaster, movie plot repeats itself in reality!"
"A great white shark swept across the eastern coast, and countless tourism workers lost their money!"
Even print media and TV news began to report on "Jaws", and beach tourism companies and surrounding people who relied on the beach tourism industry began to criticize the movie and even clamored for Galaxy to remove the movie from its shelves.
In addition to ridicule, netizens can only say one thing about the impact of "Jaws".
Except for those who rely on the beach tourism industry, even the audience who were frightened by the movie did not have a bad word to say about the movie.
"Jaws" is completely popular, the kind that breaks out of the circle!
Economic news is being reported, social news is being reported, and of course entertainment news is indispensable.
But they are all about the movie itself, and little is said about the director Li Qian.
Under such circumstances, mainstream film critics no longer care about being reserved.
Even if there is no money to be paid and no one is asking for a contribution, he will not hesitate to write a film review that either praises or criticizes.
"A simple but not simple movie. I even think it is the best monster movie I have seen this year. It once again proves that great monster movies are never simply about monsters: the first half is about bureaucracy and vacation. The district boss and village chief, as well as the "leader" in a flashing scene, the second half depicts the confrontation between the characters, the characters are extremely full, the rhythm is relaxed and relaxed, and the soundtrack is the icing on the cake!"
"Even after watching the news and getting ready to watch this movie, I was still shocked. But after thinking about it carefully, you realize that what is more terrifying than Jaws is the ignorance, arrogance and greed of human nature. , Human nature is the most elusive and ugliest thing in the world!"
"Businessmen are so greedy for profit that they don't care whether someone will die tragically. They still do everything first to make money. The onlookers enjoy watching and have no compassion. These behaviors are outrageous and remind me of an article I once read. :
At first, they polluted the rivers and I was speechless because it was not our hometown.
They make tainted milk powder, and I am speechless because the victims are not our children.
Their workers jumped off the building one after another. I was speechless because we are not workers.
Later, violent demolitions took place all over the place, and I was speechless because that was not our home.
Then, some people robbed and some opened fire. I was still speechless because we were not the victims.
The old man was lying dying on the roadside. I was still speechless because those were not our parents.
Finally, when death came straight towards me, no one shouted for me anymore...
Even if the hero in the movie, the security minister who killed the great white shark, was initially forced to conceal the fact that the shark eats people, isn't he also one of "us"?
Shark attack on girl, he did not announce it.
A shark attacked a little boy and he didn't announce it.
Because those are not his daughter and son.
For the third time, his son passed by a shark and was on the verge of death.
In the end, it was because his own children were also in danger, and because his previous actions had resulted in the death of someone, that he couldn't bear it in his conscience, so he went out to sea to hunt sharks.
In the end, he became a hero, even though he indirectly caused the death of the last two victims.
But people will only remember heroes, how realistic it is!”
""Jaws" is a boring horror movie. The monster cannot run rampant, it must die. This is the voice of the people, this is the need of society. The security minister finally luckily hit the oxygen tank, and the huge explosion will The shark is torn into pieces, the shark is dead, the people are saved, the world is peaceful, and a hero is finally born. Compared with all the foreshadowing, the easy killing of the great white shark in the end seems so pale. Isn't this a satire of today's society! "
The reviews of these film critics include both praise and criticism, and they interpret the film from various aspects.
Li Qian also took a casual look, and he had to say that they looked deeper than he did, and they were worthy of eating this bowl of rice.
As for the impact on the seaside tourism industry, Li Qian could only say sorry in his heart.
After watching the news for a while, Li Qian dialed Chen Hai's number at Galaxy Video.
"Hey Mr. Chen, I received a letter from the lawyer of Nansha Beach Resort."
"Then I'll excuse you, thank you."
After perfunctorily asking about the new film, Li Qian hung up the phone. He looked at the lawyer's letter mailed to him on the table and couldn't help laughing.
I thought the other party had some tricks up their sleeves, and wanted to scare people with a lawyer's letter.
What is a lawyer's letter?
It's just a legal threatening letter. He really treats Li Qian as an ordinary citizen.
Besides, it doesn't matter if it's a court summons. The two parties have signed a sponsorship contract, and they are just acting in accordance with the contract.
If there is a chance to meet again, Li Qian would like to tell him face to face that he will make another sequel next summer.
