Chapter 1158 Depressed Wu Hong
Chen Ziyu first opened the ticket purchase software, and someone had already started leaving comments on it.
"Five-star praise! Another masterpiece by Teacher Tan Yue!"
"The excitement of "Titanic" far exceeded my expectations. I was moved by the love story of Jack and Rose."
"I have never cried like this over a movie. My eyes were a little swollen when I came out."
"Sure enough, Teacher Tan Yue's movies must not be missed."
"I recommend everyone to go to the cinema to watch "Titanic". Whether it is pictures or special effects, it can be said that they have reached the top level in China. It is really fun to watch it on the big screen."
"'Titanic' is definitely a perfect movie!"
Chen Ziyu checked some comments about "Titanic" on other social platforms. After all, the first nationwide premiere had just ended, so there were still few comments online.
But fortunately, they are basically all good reviews.
Chen Ziyu had a smile on her face and said: "Ah Yue, I looked at the current online reviews. Everyone recognizes "Titanic" very much and the reviews are very high."
"As long as everyone likes it, there won't be much energy spent on subsequent publicity."
Word of mouth has a huge impact on a movie.
Even if countless advertisements are placed on major social platforms in the early stage, as long as the reputation after launch is not good or average, the box office results will never be too high.
Tan Yue has seen too many such examples.
A few days before a new movie is released is when Tan Yue is most worried. Now that he heard Chen Ziyu say that the first wave of reviews were very good, he felt relieved.
Chen Ziyu put down her phone: "The movie's good reputation saves a lot of trouble."
There was a red light ahead. Tan Yue gently stepped on the brakes and said, "I wonder what the situation is like abroad?"
Due to certain restrictions, they were unable to directly see the evaluation of "Titanic" by foreign audiences on the external network, and could only wait for Wu Gong to submit the data.
"Titanic" is released simultaneously around the world. To achieve good box office results, foreign audiences' recognition of "Titanic" is also very important.
"I think foreign audiences will also recognize "Titanic"."
Tan Yue frowned slightly, feeling a little worried in his heart, and said, "I hope everything is fine."
Chen Ziyu comforted: "Good-looking movies have no respect for national boundaries. The previous movies, "The Godfather", "Shawshank Redemption", and "The Truman Show" had a good reputation when they were first released in China. They also had a good reputation abroad. The reputation is not bad either. Don’t worry. I have watched many foreign romance films, and the love story in “Titanic” is definitely the best I have ever seen.”
She didn't say that intentionally to comfort Tan Yue.
After watching "Titanic", Chen Ziyu realized that love stories could still be filmed this way.
"Thank you for your encouragement." Tan Yue smiled.
The red light turns green and the car starts.
"When we were at home, we always watched some older foreign romance films together. At that time, I was thinking about when I would see a domestically produced romance film that could be considered a classic, and I finally saw it today. "
Hearing this, Tan Yue burst into laughter.
Chen Ziyu continued: "This is not a commercial bragging. There is a very high probability that "Titanic" will be listed as a model of a romance film."
"I believe it too."
"Titanic" is known as the ceiling of romance movies on earth. Tan Yue is confident that this movie will become a classic.
Chen Ziyu felt that her phone was vibrating. When she opened it, she saw that the company's chat group was already talking about "Titanic".
"Brothers and sisters! I've finished watching "Titanic"!"
"I advise you not to spoil the story."
“I didn’t buy a ticket, I’m jealous!”
"How about it?"
Many people also responded to the emoticon below.
One stone stirs up a thousand waves.
The group suddenly became lively.
"This movie is absolutely wonderful, friends, you must see it."
"All I can say is, Mr. Tan is awesome!"
"A reminder for those with tear incontinence, be sure to grab some extra paper before you go."
"I mean, it's not good for a tall man to cry in a movie theater."
"I'll go with you (dog head) then."
Chen Ziyu told Tan Yue the news in the group.
Tan Yue smiled and asked, "You're not crying, are you?"
"How is that possible? I am a recognized strong woman. How could I shed tears for a movie?"
"Really?"
"Of course." Chen Ziyu didn't want to admit that she shed tears, and the tears were just rolling, not really shed. Then he changed the subject and said, "The little girl next to me was crying a lot."
She noticed that the girl next to her had been wiping her tears. When she left, there was a lot of toilet paper on the ground.
"Titanic" is considered a success if it can move everyone." There were fewer cars in front of him, so Tan Yue gently stepped on the accelerator to increase the speed.
Chen Ziyu stopped paying attention to the chat in the group, looked at the scenery in front of her, and murmured: "It's been a long time since I've seen so many viewers shed tears for a movie in a cinema."
"Titanic" itself is very popular, and the waves of publicity before its release have further increased the popularity to a terrifying level.
Normally, you can find discussions related to "Titanic" on hot topics. As long as a new trailer is released, it will definitely be on the hot search.
Today is the premiere day of "Titanic", and naturally it has become a hot search, with netizens discussing it fiercely.
"Love is a ticket. With it, we can take a time machine, travel through long and short years, and find some memories that once made our hearts beat. Love is also a boat ticket. It has drifted in the vast blue sea of the Atlantic Ocean and sunk into the lonely abyss of tens of thousands of feet under the sea."
"I think in addition to the love and sacrifice spirit that moved the world in "Titanic", I think the director also wants to express a spirit of liberation and reform unique to that era in the film."
"Winning the boat ticket is the luckiest thing in my life. It makes me know you. It's an honor to know you. It's an honor. You must help me, promise me to live, promise me that you will not give up, no matter what happens, no matter what the environment is... Ruth, promise me, don't forget it. - "Titanic""
"Life is all about luck. I like When I woke up in the morning, everything was unknown. I didn't know who I would meet or what the ending would be. I think life is a gift and I don't want to waste it. You don't know what the next hand will be, so you have to learn to accept life. Make every day worthwhile. ——"Titanic"
"There are countless touching scenes after watching "Titanic". "
"When she spit like a man, she was no longer the lady tied to the slave ship, no longer the invisible person standing in a crowded room screaming hard but no one even looked at her. "
"I don't think "Titanic" is a simple love movie. "
As the popularity of "Titanic" continues to rise, the media will naturally not miss the opportunity to rub traffic and start reporting one after another.
"Star Entertainment: The movie Titanic, directed by Tan Yue and co-starred by Li Youfan and Liu Xi, is online today! Let's gather in the cinema together!"
"Film Consulting: According to data, the major theaters across the country are almost full today, and tickets are not available in many places. It is reported that many theaters have begun to adjust the screening rate."
"Southern Entertainment: Titanic is officially online in major theaters across the country today, meeting audiences across the country. In addition, Titanic is also being released simultaneously around the world!"
The popularity of Titanic naturally made the movie forum lively.
A post with the highest popularity wrote: Talk about the moments in Titanic that impressed you (spoilers involved, please do not enter if you have not watched it).
"Her first appearance was like a plot in a novel. On the sun-filled deck, a young girl walked slowly, graceful, charming, but indifferent. The soft sunset shone on her, making her look holy and noble."
"At the moment when Ruth turned around and jumped back to the Titanic, if she had not looked back, if she had left on a lifeboat, no one would have the courage to watch the cruel shipwreck."
"17-year-old Ruth walked through the newly painted corridor, and everyone was waiting for her in the hall. Her maid, Jack's friend, the little girl dancing with Jack, the designer, and Jack. They hugged and kissed, and everyone applauded. At that moment, everyone was fine, without pain, fear, or separation of life and death."
"Too many, too many, I can't remember them all at once."
Modu.
In a high-end private club, in a room, five people sat, sipping tea and chatting.
"Try this tea, I guarantee you have never tasted it."
The five people were talking and laughing, and one of them was Wu Hong.
Among the other four people, two are well-known domestic directors, and the other two are from the business circle.
Every Chinese New Year, the five of them will get together, even if today is the first day of the Chinese New Year.
The person sitting on Wu Hong's left said: "This tea is good. What kind of tea is it?"
"You can't buy it outside. Do you want it? I'll get you some when you leave."
"Just a little? Don't be so stingy."
"It's not that I'm stingy. I don't have much. It was given to me by a friend in the south. If you hadn't come, I wouldn't have been willing to drink it. Just be content."
Several people laughed immediately.
Wu Hong took a sip and couldn't help nodding. It was indeed a good tea.
The person sitting on Wu Hong's right, also a director, joked: "Old Wu, this time your movie is colliding with Tan Yue's again. How do you feel? Can you beat him in terms of box office performance?"
"Yes, Old Wu, this time your movie is also released simultaneously around the world. As long as you surpass him in box office this time, you will be ranked first among domestic directors."
The person sitting on Wu Hong's right continued to joke: "My own movie may not be released simultaneously around the world, so I'm counting on you. When it becomes popular around the world, remember to help your brother."
The five people often joked when they sat together.
These words were just jokes to them, but they sounded different to Wu Hong.
He smiled and said nothing.
The five people were all people of relatively high status and strength.
Although everyone usually liked to make jokes, he felt insulted to have fun with this matter.
He had been an opponent with Tan Yue before, and he lost completely in terms of reputation and box office.
Tan Yue seemed like a thorn in his heart.
Wu Hong cursed in his heart the person who brought up this topic, saying that he was really talking about something irrelevant and making him lose face.
Now, if you randomly pick a director from the top domestic director circle, who dares to say that the box office performance of Tan Yue's film is better than that of Tan Yue?
Everyone is a self-aware person.
Tan Yue's goal is the global film market, and it has long been not limited to the domestic market.
Wu Hong's film can be released simultaneously around the world this time, which is completely due to the company's benefits.
Previously, Tianjing Entertainment Company cooperated with some foreign companies in order to enter the global film market.
Wu Hong's film work is the result of cooperation with foreign countries.
He has no idea about this film, and he doesn't know whether it can be accepted by global audiences, let alone the box office forecast.
This film is a type that Wu Hong has never touched before, so he is very worried now.
For those who don't know the real situation, they think Wu Hong is very glorious, and the film has been released in the global film market.
But only Wu Hong himself knows whether he will gain anything in the global film market this time, which ultimately depends on God's will.
Looking at Wu Hong drinking tea with his head down, as a member of the host, he quickly changed the subject and said, "I've recently taken a fancy to a new project, and you can give me some ideas."
The topic naturally moved away.
Listening to their discussion, Wu Hong has been thinking about his own movie, thinking: the first show has been broadcast, and the comments should be available online.
Wu Hong picked up his phone, stood up and said: "I have to pee, go to the toilet."
He was worried that the topic would turn to himself again by looking at the online reviews here.
If the reviews are good, there will be no problem.
But with Tan Yue in front of him, he was not so confident, so he went to the toilet to find a place where no one was.
"Go ahead."
Wu Hong left the room, went to the toilet, and opened the ticket purchase app on his mobile phone.
As he kept sliding the screen of his mobile phone, his face looked a little bad.
"I want to know what this movie is about? Why don't I understand it."
"It feels good. As a movie that is released simultaneously around the world, I support it."
"I really regret buying this movie ticket. I don't recommend it."
"This movie just passed the passing line. There is nothing too exciting, and there is nothing too bad."
Overall, it is a mixed bag.
Seeing this, Wu Hong became even more worried. It was just the beginning, and he saw many negative reviews in the comment section. The box office performance would definitely be affected.
And this was only the situation in China.
Wu Hong also had no idea about the reviews of his movie on the Internet.
He put his phone back in his pocket, came out of the toilet, took a deep breath, and decided to see if he could improve the reputation through publicity.
