Chapter 591: Shock

Some people do wrong things and say the wrong words, they will do everything possible to repudiate, evade or simply put a dead dog, but some people will abide by the apology, even if it may affect their reputation.
There are a lot of big v small v in the wave blog, both kinds of people, the number of the former is undoubtedly far more than the latter, some even prefer to eat the lawsuit to lose money does not apologize, is worried that it will fall.
Wang Xiaoxu is undoubtedly the latter.
His pen is very powerful, and he never easily loses to argue with others in his columns and blogs, but if he is really wrong, he will not die for his face.
At 10:05 on April 4th, the well-known writer and film critic, in his personal blog with 1.75 million fans, solemnly apologized to "Ghost Story" and Lu Chen.
The cause of the apology is naturally that he last questioned the "Ghost Story" Xiangjiang box office and surrounding sales in "Weekly Movie Talk". It turns out that he is wrong.
Because this evening, Wang Xiaoxu personally went to the theater to watch the movie, and bought a peripheral product.
Without an investigation, he had no say. He admitted that he had made a subjective mistake and had a habitual prejudice against domestic films, but did not expect that "Ghost Story" was so good.
In this blog post, Wang Xiaoxu praised "Ghost Story" and thought that this film has reached a very high standard in terms of plot, character, soundtrack or background props, including special effects scenes, especially in terms of soundtrack and character shaping. Real boutique masterpiece!
The surrounding products of "Ghost Story" are not only rich in quantity, but also excellent in quality, and the price is not very expensive. It is both unexpected and reasonable to be able to set such high sales.
Whether it is the film itself or the surrounding products, the producers have done the word "intention"!
In the past decade or so, the domestic film market has continued to be hot, and with the advent of the Internet era, film reviews have not only been limited to a few professionals, but online bloggers and bloggers have talked about the netizens.
However, in this circle of big and small, Wang Xiaoxu is undoubtedly an influential film critic. His film review articles not only appear in personal blogs, but also often published in newspapers and magazines.
So when his film review written in the form of an apology was published on the blog, it immediately caused a lot of shock in the circle, and many insiders made it forward or comment.
Fans who had been ridiculed by Wang Xiaoxu had seen it. They immediately changed their positions and praised Wang Xiaoxu’s sincere apology and forwarded it in large numbers.
Wang Xiaoxu’s blog fans actually broke through 2 million!
Many ordinary netizens who saw Wang Xiaoxu's blog post could not help but curiosity about "Ghost Story". Everyone wants to see if this film that is so praised is genuine and has ordered movie tickets online.
Although some people suspected that Wang Xiaoxu had collected the money and joined forces with Lu Chen, the sound was too weak to look down on any storms.
The reason is very simple, because the opponent of "Ghost Story" is to import Hollywood blockbusters, rather than a huge domestically produced film, otherwise the doubt will be at least ten times louder.
The public opinion on the Internet can affect the reality. The word-of-mouth of the movie is especially true. The "Ghost Story" on the first day of April 2 was 38.75 million at the box office, breaking through 40 million on the next day, reaching 43 million on the 4th, and breaking the billion in three days!
What is shocking is that the box office of "Ghost Story" on April 5 has soared to 65 million+, and the filming rate has exceeded 30%, and the strong detonation of "Decisive Battle of Vulcan"!
"Decisive Battle of Vulcan" has been released for two weeks, the box office decline is inevitable, but the problem is that since the release of "Ghost Story", its box office decline trend is very star, especially on the 5th, it is even more tragic to 3700 Wan, lost to the "Ghost Story" 28 million box office.
According to the words of a person in the circle, it is the eyeball that broke the ground!
The goal of "Decisive Battle of Vulcan" is to go to more than one billion. The real opponent chosen by it is originally the fantasy movie "The Legend of the Holy Land" that Lions will release on April 9. It also invests in huge Hollywood blockbusters.
Unexpectedly, I did not wait for the "Sacred Land Legend" to arrive, and first lost to "Ghost Story".
On the propaganda momentum, on the scale of investment, and on the special effects scene "Decisive Battle of Vulcan", you can lightly crush "Ghost Story", and the results are really eye-popping.
On April 6th, 7th, and 8th, the box office of "Ghost Story" continued to rise with the increase of the filming rate, pulling out a dazzling big Yangxian line, and before the release of "The Legend of Holy Land" on the 8th. One day, the single-day box office broke 100 million!
For a domestic film, this is undoubtedly a miraculous existence, although it is not unique, but in recent years it is absolutely only this case has no other home!
From April 2nd to 8th, "Ghost Story" was released for one week, and the box office in the first week reached 420 million.
The industry is silent.
Many people know that the investment amount of "Ghost Story" is only 30 million. The domestic publicity and marketing is basically the same as this number. Even if it is counted as the follow-up propaganda investment, it will not exceed 100 million.
The $420 million box office has steadily earned back all the costs and achieved considerable profitability.
Not only that, the sales of "Ghost Story" also reached 80 million+, creating a record of domestic and foreign films including Hong Kong and Taiwan, and this sales performance has greatly exceeded the "Decisive Battle of Vulcan".
A Hollywood blockbuster that has invested more than 100 million US dollars has actually lost to a domestic movie in the surrounding sales. This was something that I could not have imagined before. Now it is really realized!
This can not help but remind people of the previous words published by Lu Chen on the blog, saying that "Ghost Story" will win 500 million box office and over 100 million peripheral sales.
At that time, apart from Lu Chen’s fans, there were not many people who believed that many people in the circle were still secretly laughing at his arrogance and thought that he was overwhelmed.
How is it now? "Ghost Story" more than 500 million box office is not a problem at all, the impact of 1 billion is not a dream, but has such real potential.
The people who laughed at Lu Chen, now they are all swollen!
What is really surprising is still behind. On April 9th, because of the release of "The Legend of the Holy Land", "Ghost Story" finally made people fall down with a slap in the face, and the box office was 87 million.
However, under almost the same platoon rate, the "Holy Land Legend" box office was more than 80 million, and even the first day was lost to the "Ghost Story" that has been released for 8 days!
The first one is sent. (To be continued.)
