Chapter 30: Still Strong
When everyone was about to numb after winning a box office of 3.67 million in the first three days of the fourth week.
Yu Donghan Sanye originally expected that the box office would be 8 million in the fourth week, but after the data in the first three days came out, the two felt that they could still maintain more than 10 million.
So call Wang Meng and ask if there are any novel promotional methods. After all, the virus promotion method initiated by Wang Meng on the website forum is still very powerful.
So after a few people discussed, a title like this appeared on the forum again - [Do you understand "This Man from Earth"? A movie that tests IQ?]
When such posts appear, many people find that they really don’t understand them. There are also many who have not seen them before, and they are pulled into the cinema by the last promotion.
When this kind of back-received moviegoers began to be smarter than themselves, major media found that they could not keep up with the times and movies could still be promoted like this.
With such a reason, it is even more violent than spending money on publicity with real swords and guns.
"I have finished watching the third time. I have to say that I have had a different understanding again. In fact, this is a movie that saves human history itself. It uses a man who has lived for 14,000 years to clear away the darkness..." Netizen - Huahua Boy.
"This is my first time watching it. To be honest, this movie is really a bit difficult to understand, and I don't understand." Netizen - Call me Dapeng
"It's still **** if you read it again, those who understand will not explain..." Netizens - Haha, laugh
...
The reporters were once again caught up on the street by the editor for an interview, and these people scolded Wang Meng miserably.
Damn it, okay?
A TV station is broadcasting entertainment news:
"Hello everyone, the young director Wang Meng's "This Man from Earth" is still being released, making a movie that was released for the fourth week, and you can see it from the audience behind me. Although it has been four weeks, many viewers are willing to come to the cinema to continue watching...
The reporter changed his voice and said: "Let's interview what the audience thinks about this movie."
"Hello sir, is this the first time you've watched this video?" the reporter asked.
The young man in his twenties said, "No, no, this is the third time I have watched this movie."
Reporter: "What is the reason for you to watch this movie three times?"
Youth: "I'm not the damn guys on the forum. They actually said that I'm crazy. I don't believe it. I can't understand it. You guys wait."
The reporter was stunned and hurriedly said: "A movie can allow the audience to return to watch for the third time. I have to say that this movie has been successful, and this new online promotion method has also allowed many director and film companies to see new highlights..."
With the hot box office and unique promotional methods, the movie news this week is in addition to "Harry Potter" and "This Man from Earth".
Why? To be honest, in November 2005, there was no Chinese movie that could be successful, so we couldn't always report Hollywood blockbusters. So we had to choose the only highlight of November, Wang Meng's movie.
But Wang Meng knew that December 2005 was coming. If you remember correctly, "If - Love" starring director Chen Kexin, Mr. Zhou, Takeshi Kaneshiro, Jacky Cheung and others will be coming on December 1st.
Not to mention box office, this movie awards alone swept the Golden Rooster, Golden Horse, and major domestic film awards. Director Chen Kexin has been doing well in the mainland since then, and Mr. Zhou has also won the title of "Acting Elf".
But this is not the most important thing, because there is a big bomb in December, that is, on December 15, "The Promise" directed by Chen Kaige will also be released. This film, which is known as a big investment and production, is also coming. I just don't know if it will be hacked.
It seems that Cecilia Cheung and Tse will also become acquainted by the actors in "The Promise". As for whether Teacher Chen's camera will appear in a few years, Wang Meng is of course not sure.
This is still in China. Hollywood's "King Kong" is coming in December, and it is not easy to mess with.
So Wang Meng caught up with a good time.
A few days ago, reporters' interviews with Wang Meng also appeared in the newspaper.
What. "The young director's fight back, the next work will be close to reality and face doubts."
What. "The young director was frightened and frightened to shoot TV series."
Anyway, readers like to read, and reporters like to edit, and they are willing to wash away people's vision.
Blogs and forums in this era are personal promotional websites for celebrities, and Weibo in later generations has not yet become the dominant ones.
So some fans who like Wang Meng very much felt that they were not satisfied, so they opened a blog about Wang Meng, and tens of thousands of people participated in it for a while, which Wang Meng did not expect.
When Wang Meng found out, she was still very excited. After all, she had fans, which was a process that celebrities had to go through. Sometimes Wang Meng still wanted to remember that many of the novels she read in her previous life would contact Sina to cooperate with Weibo, and try it out if you want it.
But after thinking about it, I gave up. Who cares about you?
Besides, there is no time!
During this period, Wang Meng found that his choice not to play "This Man from Earth" was right, because like in his previous life, the movie was famous, but he was also famous for the director and screenwriter.
Even Ren Quan and Li Bingbing are not as popular as Wang Meng, so their news is still the same.
"What is Ren Quan's secret love for Li Bingbing, but Li Bingbing refuses."
"What kind of screen couple is like a passerby in reality."
Pan Hong and Zhao Youliang were just like that, with some effect, but not much effect. Jiang Shuying had a little fame. As for the supporting roles Chen Chichi and Zheng Kai, they had to stare blankly.
In fact, the starring actors didn't know that when the film returned from Hong Kong, Taiwan and Southeast Asia, they became popular.
When the fourth week ended, this movie, which was praised and criticized, won 10.17 million yuan firmly, and the comprehensive box office of the four weeks was 41.67 million yuan. It can be said that the hype and brain-burning plot played a big role.
The total investment and movies that were promoted with less than three million yuan won a box office of 41.67 million yuan, and everyone exclaimed that the wolf was coming.
"Small cost victory, the victory of science fiction movies." - A famous filmmaker.
"The decline in the box office of the movie is what we are most worried about. But this film breaks this fact. So good publicity and excellent film quality are important factors in the success of the movie." - A theater manager.
"Recently, a stranger's name has entered my sight, not just my sight, but my ears, family and my life. Why do you say that, or who is this person?" This is a very special magazine.
Everyone was attracted by the beginning sentences, and then they looked: "This person is young director Wang Meng, or musician Wang Meng, and cartoonist Wang Meng. Yes, I don't know what to call him, as for the movie, I won't talk about it, his news has long occupied the front page recently."
"And what's going on with ears? I recently discovered that my eldest granddaughter likes to listen to "You, the Deskmate", these days, is actually the work of this young director."
"And - the most unforgivable thing is that my little grandson has always asked me to tell the story of "The Bears". The author looked it up carefully, okay? The screenwriter of "The Bears" is also this young director."
"Now my family, my vision, is filled with Wang Meng's story. So the author can't help but wonder, is it a great success or a sudden success, or will it be the injury of Zhongyong in the future?"
Finally, he encouraged: "Young director Wang Meng, don't let me down. Actually, I like your works very much..." - Chen Jianguo, a retired industry insider.
When everyone saw this report, they realized that Wang Meng had done so much.
Wang Meng also learned from Lao Lu that Chen Jianguo was actually a retired former executive of the Ministry of Culture. Lao Lu said that Wang Meng was finally recognized by the upper class, which is commendable, but don’t be proud and keep working hard.
