Chapter 200: .Compliments from opponents

On the first day of the new year, the battle of the Spring Festival stalls officially started.
I don’t know when it started. The seven-day holiday for the Spring Festival has become the scariest period in the film market in the whole year. Although there are only seven days, the box office produced is often higher than that of many other periods in a month.
This year, the four films will compete for the Spring Festival. The first one is naturally the billionaire director Chen Hang. His "Nine Stars Lianzhu" is one of the most anticipated films in the Spring Festival.
It’s just a pity that it’s just one of them, because there is also a "Faithful Dog Hachiko" that was not in the eyes of Chen Hangtai. Whether it is from word-of-mouth or popularity, it is faintly more than "Nine Stars Linking Pearl" meaning.
Even before it was released, it had already won an amazing box office of over 100 million yuan.
At the same time, the movie series also proved that this year's Spring Festival, Chen Hang and his movies are not without rivals.
On the first day of the new year, the four films were officially released on the same day.
In the past, even if it was as hot as a summer vacation, in many cases, the box office for a day was less than 100 million, but in the Spring Festival, a single movie had a box office of more than 100 million that day.
The box office on the first day of the new year this year hit a record high again, with the box office reaching 340 million on the first day.
I have to say that Chen Hang's strength is indeed strong, and coupled with the high-ranking film, on the first day, without any accident, won the box office crown, leading the Spring Festival stalls.
The first-day box office of 122 million made Chen Hang a sigh of relief. Chen Hang has not been without pressure since the news of the double harvest of word-of-mouth at the box office of "Hachiko Hachiko" came out.
But after seeing the box office of "The Story of the Faithful Dog Hachiko", which ranked second in the daily box office, Chen Hang's mood was not so good.
"The Story of Hachiko" was released on Lunar New Year's Day, and the box office received 118 million on that day, which is also over 100 million.
Maybe people think that "The Story of Hachiko" is only 118 million? Is it still worse than "Nine Stars Link"?
However, as a filmmaker and as a director, Chen Hang knows that the daily box office of "The Story of Hachiko" is totally different from "Nine Stars".
Not to mention anything else, just talk about the attendance rate. "The Hachiko" can slap "Nine Stars". Many people may ask, isn't the box office almost the same? How can the attendance rate be hanging?
"Nine Stars" is a science fiction film, and there is a 3D version, and "The Story of the Hachiko" Sorry, this is a pure 2D movie, I want to see 3D, not 3D. Although domestic 3D screens are not mainstream at this stage, the ticket prices are higher because of this.
And "Nine Stars Lianzhu" is the only 3D movie in the Spring Festival except for animated movies. In other words, "Nine Stars Lianzhu" is not as good as "Hachiko" in terms of specific performance.
In addition to the previous box office screenings, the total box office of "The Story of Hachiko" has reached 256 million.
In addition, it is not unusual for him to get a box office of over 100 million yuan for his Chen Hang movie. After all, the cost of the production cost is the number one.
But "The Story of Hachiko" is different. This is a feature film, and this is Wang Yifan's first time for the Spring Festival. Under the pressure of "Nine Stars" to achieve such results, which news will the media prefer?
It is undoubtedly Wang Yifan and his "Hachiko".
What made Chen Hang even more depressed was that the word-of-mouth of "The Hachiko" expanded with the screening, and with the official release, it really told everyone what is unstoppable.
"The Story of Hachiko" can be said that after experiencing that hack, there are almost no negative reviews.
As for the other two, Ma Qingshan's "Warm Winter" is a literary film after all. Although the lineup is good and the attendance rate is acceptable, it launched a box office competition from the very beginning, and received 48 million in the day.
And Wu Han's "Life on the Line" has become a real cannon fodder. Under the attack of "The Story of the Hachiko" and "Nine Stars", the box office of "Life on the Line" was only about 30 million on the first day.
The next day, as Chen Hang worried, the media was obviously more interested in the box office data and performance of "The Hachiko's Tale". More than half of them were reporting on the first day of the box office word-of-mouth explosion of "The Hachiko" news.
"People are not as good as dogs. A dog named Xiao Ba in "The Story of Hachiko" won over 100 million box office on the first day of the Lunar New Year! Attendance and word-of-mouth show a trend of crushing!"
"Director Wang Yifan's pinnacle work, "The Story of the Hachiko" won over 100 million box office on the first day, with a total box office of 256 million! Leading the Spring Festival!"
"Another billion-dollar leader is about to be born!"
This also shows that the effect of the explosion of word-of-mouth that was highlighted earlier is surprisingly good.
It would be almost impossible for "The Story of the Faithful Dog Hachiko" to achieve such a score without the premature public praise.
What's more interesting is that it seems to have been infected by this movie, and the sales of dogs in some pet shops have soared. This is the second time. It was the time of the "Peerless Dogs" trial.
Many netizens have published their pets, and the funny thing is that many of them actually named their pet dogs Xiaoba.
This shows the influence of "The Story of Hachiko".
In fact, Wang Yifan himself is also extremely excited. You must know that although "The Story of Hachiko" was known as a classic in the past life, in fact, the box office did not have that good-looking data.
It was not even shown in China.
At the moment, relying on our own accumulation, with the full support of the era's light and shadow, and various marketing methods, combined with the quality of the film itself, it can be regarded as a miracle.
In fact, many people can't help but begin to analyze the factors of the success of "Hachiko". What are the themes of the current domestic box office blockbusters?
Science fiction, action, comedy, etc., but it has nothing to do with drama.
Now, with the current momentum of "The Story of Hachiko", many people predict that one billion is not a problem at all.
Of course, Wang Yifan has done a lot of work in "The Story of the Hachiko". The original "Peerless Dog" campaign, the later planning of large-scale screenings, etc., plus the quality of the film itself, The current results.
Well, maybe the competitor's discrediting also has some credit.
And no one expected that the next day, Chen Hang was caught at the entrance of a movie theater by a media reporter who was waiting at the entrance of the movie theater to do a live interview. Of course, it was also because Chen Hang did not disguise or cover up.
Originally, the reporter had never thought that Chen Hang would admit that he was going to watch "Hachiko" and contributed a movie ticket to his opponent, but as a result, Chen Hang was worthy of being a billionaire director, and he did not deny it.
In the camera, Chen Hanghong accepted the interview with eyes open: "What do you think of "The Story of Hachiko"?"
"Don't ask me how the quality of the film is, neither the lens skills nor the director's art is worthy of praise." Chen Hang said.
The reporter was not too surprised by Chen Hang's answer. After all, he was a competitor, but then, Chen Hang's words made the reporter excited.
"Let’s talk about the plot first. This is an ordinary and cliché story. The idioms of all warm-hearted films can be seen everywhere in this movie. It is not new. But it is this ordinary and cliché story that makes me a competitor. It has become what it is now." Chen Hang said, pointing at his red eyes.
"Let's put it this way, he deserves such a success to make a simple and clichéd story into such a heavy tear gas! Thank you! Of course, "Nine Stars Link" is not bad!"
