China Entertainment's My Artistic Career

Chapter 233 Achievements and Disputes

Suddenly, "Defiant" had its first weekend.

From here, the movie's box office began to jump, with a box office revenue of 2739 million on Saturday, another 3184 million on Sunday, and a box office of 7780 million in the first three days of the weekend, which is quite a good result.

And the reviews from viewers have also come out these days. Generally speaking, the reviews are pretty good:
"The choice of actors is very good. Xie Miao's knife swing at the end is really cool to me, and the little fish is really cute. If anyone still has the poster of Marching in the Gobi at the beginning, I will pay a high price!"

"The camera language is very mature, the camerawork and action design are also remarkable, and the rhythm is great. I recommend it with 5 stars. It is the best martial arts movie this year!"

Hey hey hey, "Martial Arts" hasn't been released yet, and at the end of the year there will be "Flying Swords of Dragon Gate" by Xu Ke. How dare you?

"It's a great martial arts movie. I like the costumes, the lighting and the art scenes. I'll give it a try."

However, some people commented that the plot was too crude and was suspected of plagiarizing "Zatoichi".

He Hua didn't care at first. After all, no movie can satisfy everyone's tastes.

It's just that these negative contents were quickly hyped up by thoughtful people, and there were more and more similar negative reviews.

Youhua's propaganda department quickly noticed this power and began to trace the IP address.

Yang Ming sneered: "Don't even think about it. It must have been done by Xingmei and the team from "Martial Arts". This is how they did "Three Guns" when "October Siege" was released."

"Then we are now?"

"They made the first move, so we can't blame them. Send out all the things you prepared and let them have a taste of being fucked." Yang Ming arranged decisively.

"In addition, the live broadcast can be arranged, and each main creator of the crew will have one day."

"Received" "Good"

On July 7th, "Martial Arts" was officially released.

In the eyes of many film companies, the next step may be a fight between the two movies.

As for other movies, Wang Jing's "God of Wealth Inn" has a daily revenue of less than one million, so there is no need to mention the others.

But the box office results of "Martial Arts" came out that night, which shocked people.

The box office on the first day was 1028 million, which was well over [-] million. This result was not worthy of the confidence shown by Director Chen.

And on July 7th, there were a lot of negative comments about it on the Internet, including plagiarism from "A History of Violence", plot comparisons, and the shocking scenes in the movie.

Although these public opinions were quickly suppressed, it also left a bad impression on the audience.

At the same time, on the side of "Defiant", He Hua took the main creators to participate in one road show after another. At the same time, he also accepted the company's arrangement and started a live broadcast with the help of Sina Entertainment. In fact, it cannot be regarded as a live broadcast. After all, the current conditions are still You can't do that in future generations.

It's just an interview broadcast in real time, and netizens' feedback and comments can be seen quickly.

The host simply said hello to He Hua and began to become a mouthpiece for netizens:
"A netizen named Ye Guanfeng wants you to talk about the recent 'plagiarism' incident. Both martial arts movies involved plagiarism."

He Hua had already anticipated these problems, so he was calm and calm: "There is absolutely no plagiarism, but I have also learned and borrowed the strengths of some other movies, such as "The Heroes of the Yellow River" and "Zotou City"."

"With the development of movies today, excellent works are the learning objects for directors like us."

"But it would be a bit unreasonable to say that it is plagiarized because of similar pictures and settings." "What about "Martial Arts"?" the host asked curiously.

He Hua didn't know if it was good to talk about his opponents here, but since it came to this point, there was nothing to hide:
""Martial Arts" is not considered plagiarism, it is just that the story is relatively old-fashioned. The underworld master washes his hands in a golden basin." At this point, He Hua stopped: "It seems that spoilers are not good, so I won't say it anymore."

"Anyway, those who have watched the movie will know that "Sword Rain" is somewhat similar to it."

After this topic, He Hua answered a simple question about the plot:

"This is actually what we want to do more. Just like everyone comes to the theater to watch a movie to have fun, so does the blind man. He just wants justice."

After this day, basically every main creator will come to such a live broadcast, except for Zhao Jinmai's children. He Hua was afraid that the children would be exhausted and did not let her participate in the road show, let alone this.

As time enters its second week, the box office of "Defiant" is still strong, with 4 million on the 2218th, 5 million on the 2085th, 6 million on the 1831th, and 7 million on the 1924th.
The total box office is rapidly moving towards the goal of 2 million. It is certain to exceed 2 million now, and there is hope for 3 million.

The performance of "Martial Arts" was far different from the expectations of the producer and producer.

Its box office could not maintain four digits, 1208 million, 1062 perfect, 943 million.
It seems that director Chen Kexin is going to experience a Waterloo this time.

After these days, theater operators have also come to understand that if they want to make money, they still need to schedule more "Defiant" movies.

Within a few days, except for Star America's own theaters, most theaters increased their film schedules for "Defiant."

The cumulative box office of "God of Wealth Inn" is almost 4000 million. If it is released again, no one will watch it, so it will be cut.

"The Founding of the Party" has a release cycle of three months anyway, so you can take your time and make adjustments first.

"Snow Flower and the Secret Fan" is not as good as Wang Jing's shit and piss, chop chop chop.

"Martial Arts" doesn't need that many scenes, so let's reduce it.

In the second weekend, "Defiant" earned a box office of 50 million in two days with more than 2% and more than 6740 screenings scheduled, with a cumulative box office of 2.4 million. It seems that 3 million is not a big problem.

In Chengdu, in the lounge prepared by the theater, Liu Yifei leaned her head on He Hua's shoulder and fell asleep.

The same goes for the others, who don't pay attention to their manners at all. Xie Miao was lying on the table and his mouth was dripping on the floor. Qi Xi was also sitting on the chair, nodding his head. Song Yang got addicted to cigarettes and ran out to smoke.
These days of road shows are so tiring and we are all so tired.

At this time, He Hua's assistant Xiao Xu came over and showed him the message he had just received:

"There is definitely something wrong with this data. If we extrapolate from Star America's theaters to the whole country, there is a difference of at least several million."

". Enthusiastic people have reported to us that there are cases of 'stealing' box office in other places. We will deal with it seriously and will not rule out using legal weapons to protect our own rights and interests."

"At the same time, if similar situations are found, we hope that everyone will actively give us feedback and we will be rewarded with a single reward of 1000 yuan after verification."

Followed by several photos, you can see that the movie ticket stub above has been manually changed to "Martial Arts".
He Hua was really speechless. How could these people deal with such nonsense?

He picked up his cell phone and called Vice President Lin of China Film Group:

"Don't worry, how could we do this in such a good situation? They all directed and acted on their own."

Of course He Hua understood, but he just reminded them: "It's okay if it's not us."
