Chapter 567 Waiting for a slap in the face! (The second update asks for a subscription! Ask for a monthly pass!)
"Feng Xiaogang's epic production "[-]", which took two years to create, held a grand premiere ceremony in Beijing last night, bringing an unprecedented experience to nearly [-] viewers and leading them to experience the blizzard of [-] The way and the baptism of the soul."

"Tickets for the premiere of "[-]" broke records, and Feng Xiaogang, the King of Lunar New Year, is back!"

"The audience at the premiere gave a standing ovation, Feng Xiaogang and other creators burst into tears!"

""[-]" truly reflected the famine that swept across half of China that year, and the young audience was shocked!"

"Feng Xiaogang boldly said that "[-]" broke one billion without any pressure, pointing to the box office record in film history!"

"Telling Southern Henan Stories from a National Perspective"

On the first day of the release of Feng Xiaogang's "[-]", all the major news outlets gave the most news pages to report.

Almost all of them are well received, just like when "Tangshan Earthquake" was released, it can be seen that Huayi's publicity is strong.

Most of the viewers, self-media, and film critics on the Internet gave positive reviews, and the few negative reviews were covered by Huayi's powerful public relations.

On professional websites, the score of "8" is also close to [-] points, which is a rare high score among domestic films.

Although Feng Xiaogang's "If You Are the One 2" was defeated by "Edge of Tomorrow" before, it does not affect his status as a major director of commercial films, and he is also the most important one in this year's Lunar New Year file.

Moreover, "The Great Earthquake in Tangshan" is the first, and this time it is also a movie adapted from a historical event, which also makes many people look forward to it.

Feng Xiaogang and Wang Zhongjun have already made a one-billion-dollar box office hit in Haikou in front of the media. When asked if they are confident in surpassing the box office record of "The Martian", although they didn't say it directly, the media have already said it for them.

When it was reported, the tone had changed to breaking the record of "The Martian".

One of the best commercial directors in the country threatened to break Tang An's record, so there is a topic. It is best if Tang An expresses his disdain, and then Feng Xiaogang retorts, what a topic.

Although Tang An didn't express disdain, the two words he said truthfully last night made the reporter rack his brains, and used a lot of modifiers to change the meaning.

"Last night, after the premiere ceremony, our reporter met the famous director Tang An. Tang An left immediately after the screening of the film. It was obvious that he was not very satisfied with the film.

Facing the reporter's interview, Director Tang An bluntly stated that "[-]" was too heavy and deliberately exaggerated history."

After a long section of "Tang An's words".

"Director Tang An said that "[-]" is completely incomparable with "The Martian", and the final box office will not exceed [-] million."

Almost every word of what Tang An said appeared in this news article, but if they were messed up and some other words were inserted, the meaning would change completely.

Generally, directors of the same level will not comment on the films of directors of another level. Even if they want to say it, they are all answers.

Because no one knows what kind of ghosts these words uttered from their own mouth will turn into after being modified by reporters.

What's more, it is one of the best commercial directors in the country as the number one director in China. Let's not care whether it is true or not, let's talk about it first.

So, in less than half an hour, many media and even self-media released similar news.

In this way, the current situation seems to be that Tang An is attacking Feng Xiaogang, so Feng Xiaogang's fans will definitely quit.

As the number one director in China, Tang An has his own traffic.

All kinds of ghosts and monsters came out, including Tang An's fans, Heizi, Feng Xiaogang's fans and Heizi, and fans of other directors.

Various self-media and marketing accounts did not miss this opportunity to rub the heat.

"Feng Xiaogang is dying. If you can't play comedy, you can play tragedy. Do you think the audience is as stupid as "Tangshan Earthquake"!"

"It's also broken the record of "The Martian". It would be nice to have four to five billion."

""[-]" is not so sincere, it's so fucking depressing, Lao Zhi works overtime until eight o'clock to go to the movies, and just show me such a disgusting thing!"

"This movie is indeed a bit heavy. If you want to watch a cheerful movie, you should not go there, but this kind of heaviness is very real. It is a true portrayal of the great famine of that era!"

"Stop talking nonsense upstairs, it's real when you watch a movie, how can you not be real when you watch a blockbuster in the United States, and if you talk about "[-]", is it real?
The victims fled to northern Shaanxi and were shot by the army. It was definitely possible that the local warlords did this at the time, but in history, Shaanxi and Selenium rescued hundreds of thousands of victims with the power of a single province.
In the movie, the Japanese army’s initiative to release food is simply farting. The Japanese army in the occupied area in 42 has been driving away the victims. A part of the food is used to relieve the victims.

Also, there was no Battle of Southern Henan in 1942, it only started in 1944, and the so-called 6 Japanese troops lightly defeating 40 national troops are also rumors.

"[-]" was originally adapted from the novel "Revisiting the Story of [-]". Is the novel true?Can it be equated with history?
It is undeniable that "[-]" is not bad, but the truth of all movies is for the movie itself, just to show the heavy and desperate atmosphere, nothing more! "

A fan even refuted the incident in the movie with an example, but there will be more comments to refute him immediately below.

Now the news about that era is all checked from the Internet, and no one knows whether it is true or not.

Maybe this site says one thing and another says something else.

The main point of debate is the box office of movies, and people who eat melons like to predict the box office of movies the most.

Basically, most people think that "8" can earn at least 6 million at the box office. After all, "Tangshan Earthquake" has earned 8 million at the box office. In the past few years, that [-] million is not too much.

Some of Feng Xiaogang's loyal movie fans are confident in hitting 10 billion, and some agree with Tang An's prediction, thinking that the box office will be [-]-[-] million, mainly because the movie is too heavy.

The debate will not stop for a while, and no one can convince anyone until the exact figures come out.

This is not in reality, if you are not convinced, you may be beaten up, and you may be beaten.

On the Internet, you can't follow the network cable to punch the person opposite the computer.

However, the scale of the debate is not particularly large, and it is all about the rhythm of fans and the media.

Tang An didn't let the navy join in either, and continued to promote "Longling Miku".

People in the industry don't agree with Tang An's estimate of 5 million box office for "2". Feng Xiaogang has already successfully passed the theme of misery and disaster once.

As long as the movie has a good reputation, it is inevitable that the box office will explode, no matter how you look at it, it will be more than [-] million.

However, only a few people who were looking for a sense of presence, or people from Huayi and people who had a good relationship with Feng Xiaogang refuted Tang An.

Other fans who watched the movie silently were waiting for tomorrow's first box office to hit Tang An hard in the face!
Huayi Brothers Group and Wang Zhongjun were also annoyed by Tang Anna's 5 million box office estimate.

"If You Are the One 2" has such a poor reputation that it has sold more than 4 million. You said that "[-]" can only sell [-] million. Isn't that disgusting?

In the conference room, Wang Zhongjun asked the public relations department about the trends on the Internet.

"Has Hantang Media done negative marketing to discredit us?"

"Wang Dong, the opponent's navy has not hyped up this topic, and has been promoting "Longling Misty Cave", and has not made any other moves yet." The director of the public relations department replied.

"Didn't expand the propaganda?"

"Still maintaining the state of the previous few days, it seems that there is no real effort."

This Wang Zhongjun is strange, in the face of "[-]", a movie with a high probability of box office and word-of-mouth success, what is he doing without doing his best to promote it?

There is only one week difference between the release time of the two parties, and one week is enough for the word-of-mouth of "[-]" to fully ferment, and it will have an absolute advantage in terms of popularity and film scheduling.

Unless "Longling Miku" can go against the sky, otherwise it will not be able to get rid of the influence of "[-]".

After the influence of "[-]" passed, Cheng Long's kung fu comedy "Zodiac" was released again. If there is a trouble, "Longling Miku" will fail miserably under the attack of the two blockbusters.

Wang Zhongjun shook his head, and didn't care what Tang An was thinking. He was probably too busy with the Internet to focus on movies.

At that time, if the publicity is not timely, the box office will not be as good as expected, and he will cry.

However, Wang Zhongjun did not relax his vigilance, and asked the Propaganda Department and the Public Relations Department to always pay attention to the movements of Hantang Media.

At the same time, Feng Xiaogang, who was on the road show in Shanghai and preparing for the first round of the ten-city tour premiere, also dealt with the reporter's interview with a face full of displeasure.

"My movies are made for the audience. You can ask the audience if the movie is good or not, and ask them if they are satisfied!"

"satisfy!"

"nice!"

"So touching!"

"It's very touching!"

The audience in the audience was also very face-saving, and there were bursts of voices one after another.

Feng Xiaogang continued confidently, "With the support of so many viewers, I believe that the box office of "[-]" will exceed one billion!"

Feng Xiaogang also knew that the media had exaggerated Tang An's words, but the [-] million box office estimate looked down on him too much.

One billion is just the goal of Feng Xiaogang's first stage. His ultimate goal is to break the record created by Tang An and prove his ability!

From comedy to tragedy, Feng Xiaogang has fully understood what can move the audience.

Laughing and crying are the most direct and effective ways. In the past, he made the audience laugh, and "Tangshan Earthquake" made the audience cry.

This time "[-]" is more tragic than "Tangshan Earthquake".

A day passed in the hustle and bustle, just after twelve o'clock in the morning, the box office data for December 12 has been freshly released.

Many people are waiting for this data, after all, it is the first Chinese New Year blockbuster!
However, when seeing this figure, almost everyone is a little bit less convinced.

PS: I don’t know much about what happened in 1942, I just checked the information, please let me know if I’m wrong!
