Chapter 827 I owe Wu Yusen a movie ticket
At the end of July, with the release of the two blockbuster movies "Monster Hunt" and "Pancake Man", Tang An became even busier.

No matter how popular the movie is, the necessary roadshows must continue, unless everyone doesn't do roadshows, then it doesn't matter.

The daily road shows of the two films "Monster Hunt" and "Pancake Man" are much more than "Operation Red Sea", especially the latter, which is simply desperate.

There are 230 roadshows in one month, which is also a record.

Anyone who has climbed up from the bottom, no matter what abilities he has, has the same characteristic, that is "fighting"!
After graduating from university, Dapeng joined Sohu as an intern. After half a year, he became an ordinary full-time employee. It took him another year to go through three departments and become an associate editor step by step.

Even in the era when the Internet just started, this speed is amazing enough. After all, Sohu was listed on Nasdaq in 00, and it is not an entrepreneurial company.

As soon as "Pancake Man" was released, there was a lot of criticism, and even professional directors criticized that it was not a real movie at all.

As for the Internet, the label of bad movies cannot be erased.

Indeed, from the perspective of production, it has not yet reached the passing line for theater movies.

But being able to sell well has its advantages.

Wang Baoqiang's "Havoc in Tianzhu" was later regarded as a bad movie comparable to "Pancake Man" as soon as it was released.

At that time, Wang Baoqiang was more famous and well-known than Dapeng. It was also a comedy, but it couldn't sell well amidst the criticism of bad movies. It took a big dive before two days.

The core of "Pancake Man" is feelings, inspiration, dreams, passion, ups and downs, and sadness. As long as some people get to this point, selling money is not a problem.

"Havoc in Tianzhu" is purely funny, and it's still an embarrassing laugh, and it lacks a factor that can capture the hearts of the audience. The family relationship can't move people, and even the audience's biggest reaction in the film is the appearance of the sixth teacher.

Regardless of the word-of-mouth of these two movies, they have contributed a lot of topics in this summer file. Tang An has also been asked many times about his views on the two movies. million-level movies.

"Actually, the big sales of these two films are within my expectations."

Facing the reporter's interview, Tang An also answered truthfully (after the fact).

But the reporters scoffed.

expected?

The people of the whole country didn't see that these two movies were very popular before, but now that they are very popular, it has become what you expected?

The reporters also had time to wait for Tang to be forced to talk about his foresight.

Not only do I have foresight, but I can also predict the future.

Tang An organized his wording and said, "In recent years, the capacity of the film market has been increasing, especially in popular schedules. There is no problem in accommodating three films with a box office of one billion at the same time within a month.

There are not many movies that I watch this summer. "Monster Hunt" is a family comedy movie. The director brought the creative concept from Hollywood, younger age + family fun, and the audience under the age of 25 in my country accounted for 45%. It has become the main force of market consumption.
"Pancake Man" is about the counterattack of a small person, which is also a very routine and a very useful subject matter.

There are quite a few flaws in the production and plot of the film, but the director, Dapeng, brought his own experience and feelings to the big screen. Although the handling is not very good, but because he has experienced it himself, the director can be better show this process more accurately and impress the audience more truly.”

It seems to be quite reasonable, but the reporters did not buy it.

Who wouldn't know this kind of summary, with hindsight!

There were not many nutritious interviews, and Tang An did not criticize the two films.

He is not a film critic, why waste that saliva.

And there is no need to use this to attract attention and hype.

Besides, those two movies had little effect on OPERATION RED SEA.

The summer season is still going on. "Monster Hunt" officially broke through the one billion mark on the 24th, and the total box office reached 10.09 billion in nine days of release.

Another member of the Billion Club.

"Pancake Man" won 4.13 million in the second week, and the total box office in ten days reached 7.78 million, and there is great hope to break one billion.

The box office of "Operation Red Sea" began to decline, only 3.63 million in a single week, and the total box office reached 25 billion in 37.91 days of release.

In the fifth week, it got 1.46 million, and the total box office reached 39.36 billion, which is only one step away from 40 billion.

This week also released two new films, "Peace Wheel: The Other Shore" and "Dynasty Woman".

Due to the failure of the first part, Fang Leshi, the bottom guarantee of "Taiping Wheel", didn't spend any energy on publicizing and releasing it. He just wanted to take advantage of the good summer market and earn a little more.

In order to avoid the influence of the upper part as much as possible, the lower part was not called "Under the Taiping Wheel", but was temporarily renamed "Taiping Wheel: The Other Shore".

And when promoting it, they tried their best to pack and weigh an independent movie.

Even the editing was redone, using the storytelling method of "The Godfather 2", using memories and flashbacks to connect the stories before and after.

As a result, many pages of "Taiping Wheel: The Other Shore" are from the first episode, and word-of-mouth has not been brought up, and it has gained the reputation of "gathering space to steal money".

For this movie, the marketing team also had their hearts broken. Wu Yusen personally wrote the invitation letter for the premiere, but it didn't work, and no one bought it.

The market is really good, one film is close to 40 billion, one is more than one billion, and another film is nearly one billion.

But this has nothing to do with "Taiping Wheel". The 2800 million results in the first week declared the complete failure of this series. The audience popularity and reputation of Wang Xiaoming, Zhang Ziyi and others were greatly damaged, and Leshi lost their pants.

And Wu Yusen's reputation has also rotted, even worse than Brother Chen Kai's.

"Dynasty's Woman" relied on Ma Zhen's publicity before its release, and the box office was a little higher, earning 8800 million in the first weekend.

Another director was hung up. Seeing these famous directors rushing to the street one after another, Tang An also shook his head secretly.

Every year, new directors continue to emerge, and famous directors continue to rush to the street, disappearing from the audience's field of vision.

Now that "Operation Red Sea" is approaching 40 billion, the road show is almost over, and Tang An can relax without having to do seven or eight road shows a day like "Pancake Man".

I only run two games a day, and I will treat it as a trip across the country, and I will deal with the local optoelectronics by the way.

Let’s pay attention to all kinds of interesting news. Recently, "Taiping Wheel" failed badly at the box office, and the marketing team is still keeping pace, calling on the audience to go to the cinema to support it, saying that everyone who has seen "The True Colors of Heroes" owes Wu Yusen a movie ticket.

Originally I owed Zhou Xingchi a movie ticket, now I owe Wu Yusen another one, then I have to owe Xu Ke one, Wang Jing one, Li Lianlian, Cheng Long, Zhou Runfa, the audience owes a lot gone.

After watching the movie, I still owed a lot of debts, so I can find no one to justify it.
