Chapter 267 Crazy Box Office
At ten o'clock in the evening, "Young Chinese Story" was officially launched.
Poetry + music = subversive work. It has not been released yet and has been discussed more than half a million times.
A work that can both subvert and innovate and become popular all over the Internet is the arrival of a new era.
All major platforms gave cover recommendations without exception, and "Young Chinese Story" and "Tomorrow Will Be Better" appeared on the homepage at the same time.
Lin Wanqing has been on the home page several times, but this is the first time for her stage name Nuo Yan.
This is the first time that newcomers can directly get the best resources for their debut songs.
However, compared to debuting as a newcomer at the July 1st Party, it seems normal to recommend to the homepage. Commercial platforms can never be compared with official ones.
"Young Chinese Story" continues to ferment, and the entire Chinese music world is shaken, but this time no one is shouting that it is dark, but that the sky has changed.
Ever since No Yan debuted, everyone has been clamoring that it’s getting dark every day, but no matter how dark it is, it always clears up.
For example, in June, everyone really enjoyed a long-lost sunny day in the Chinese music scene.
Now this song "Young Chinese Story" has the effect of "changing the world". It is another classic song that has been chanted and spread. The Chinese music world has changed into a new world.
It seems like the promise is saying to them: Goodbye, I won’t play with you anymore.
panic.
helpless.
Marvel.
If you don't change, you will die.
It’s a sleepless night for the Chinese music scene.
"Young Chinese Story" appeared on the new song list as soon as it was released, and then started to rise at a rocket speed.
Almost every time I refresh the page, the ranking of this song will rise a few places.
Within an hour of being online, "Young China" ranked first on the new song list and hot song list, and "Tomorrow Will Be Better" ranked second.
Young people immediately downloaded the song, and their parents and elders also downloaded a song called "Tomorrow Will Be Better".
What does it mean to be exposed to rain and dew evenly?
Netizens are looping this song crazily, and everywhere they say "Young men will be strong~"
Musicians in the Chinese entertainment industry are also listening. They listen and read more carefully. They read the entire lyrics word for word, and then carefully compare Liang Qichao's articles, hoping to find something that can be attacked.
Unfortunately, they found nothing.
The combination of classical poetry and modern pop music brings new vitality to the music melody that has been passed down for thousands of years.
They felt as if they were realizing pop music for the first time. Could it be like this? Can you still play like this? Is this even possible for riding a horse?
Enlightenment, enlightenment.
After listening to it several times in a row, many people could only admit that what Zhou Hongyuan said was right.
This is an epoch-making work in the Chinese entertainment industry. Nuo Yan opened a new era with "The Story of Young China".
It turns out that poetry and songs can also be perfectly combined with pop music.
People have always tried to integrate ancient poetry into music, but every time they were scolded, everyone gradually gave up.
Since you can make money and gain a good reputation by speaking in the vernacular, why bother asking for trouble?
Now they understand that it’s not that they can’t write, it’s just that they can’t write well.
Nuo Yan told them in a song that they can write ancient poems, but they have to write them wonderfully. This requirement may seem difficult, but in fact it is not simple at all.
With the song "Promise" in front of them, they can boldly innovate, break through the shackles of tradition, and give full play to their unbridled imagination.
As for the effect, it depends on each person's ability, but one thing is that they will no longer be criticized for being too bold.
From this point of view, Nuoyan is the founder of the new era. From now on, as long as he writes in this ancient poetry style, regardless of whether he admits it or not, he will be honored as the founder.
The ancestors planted trees, and the descendants enjoy the shade.
When the public accepts this kind of song, they will naturally seek more works.
Following the trend is a shortcut. Whether it is music, movies or novels, following the trend is the fastest way to gain popularity.
But can anyone really take advantage of this popularity? This is a big question mark.
"Young Chinese Story" ranked first on the new song chart after one hour.
This is a terrible record. After all, not everyone is qualified to receive the traffic of the official party.
At this time, Xu Nuo and Lin Wanqing were still on the plane back to Shanghai, and they were temporarily isolated from the outside world.
What they didn't expect was that the spread speed of "The Story of Young China" far exceeded the speed of airplanes.
At the Shanghai Airport, someone was walking and humming, "My body is like mountains and rivers, my spine is straight, I dare to measure the sun and the moon again."
"Promise to produce high-quality products" has become a deep-rooted concept in the minds of many fans.
People of the older generation especially love his songs, and this older generation naturally includes senior officials.
Sometimes, power lies in the hands of these people.
A promise does not require power, but what he wants to do requires their nod of approval.
At 12 o'clock, the popularity of "Young Chinese Story" has not diminished. Both the number of downloads and the number of shares have reached record highs.
Official debut + July 1st party traffic blessing, so scary.
On this July 1st, Xu Nuo is very busy, busy singing, and busy promoting the movie "Crazy Stone".
At 12:01, the box office results for the first day came out.
"Shura" earned 150 million box office on the first day.
"Myth and Legend" had a box office of 120 million on the first day.
"Crazy Stone" earned 35 million at the box office on its first day.
In the era of box office inflation, the first-day box office is crucial for big productions, and anything less than 100 million is considered a flop.
But for Crazy Stone, this box office means that the investment has been recovered, because Xu Nuo's investment in this movie did not exceed 10 million.
In addition, a few days before the release, other movies began to promote crazily, and marketing expenses were spent, which took away a lot of popularity.
The 15% screening of Crazy Stone was basically not given prime time. In this case, it was able to get 35 million in box office, which was completely due to the fans' support.
The box office situation on the first day came out, and Shura won the box office championship.
Xu Nuo took out his mobile phone to check the comments of these movies. According to this progress, the box office might be taken away by the top few, so he opened the movie review area.
He found that the comments were almost one-sided negative reviews.
"Damn, I wasted my wonderful afternoon."
"I dug out the entire Forbidden City in the cinema."
"My IQ has been insulted like never before."
"Except for the gorgeous special effects, there is nothing good about it. It is hard to imagine what kind of mental state the director was in to make this bad movie."
"It's blatant money laundering. Where did the 750 million yuan go? It's far worse than the 10 million yuan investment in "Crazy Stone."
Not only "Shura", but also "Myths and Legends" received bad reviews.
"Luxurious lineup, brain-dead plot, I can't figure out who would watch this kind of movie. I admit that I am stupid."
"I can't sleep anymore, I have to give you a bad review." This angry audience posted a long film review, describing in detail how bad the movie is.
The audience's comments were so sharp that Xu Nuo thought they were all water armies hired by other film producers, because most of the audience belonged to the silent majority, and generally rarely gave comments after watching the movie, and all were system default comments.
He clicked on the evaluation records of these people and found that most of the comments were normal, with more positive reviews and fewer negative reviews.
Well, it seems that they are not water army, but serious senior movie fans.
How bad are these movies that so many viewers can give bad reviews uniformly?
And many people also recommend everyone to watch "Crazy Stone". These are not water army he hired. In fact, he has been busy these days and has not taken care of the promotion of the movie.
He has always been regarded by fans as the vanguard of fighting against water army, so of course he will not spend money to hire water army.
Water army is a double-edged sword. It can indeed increase the popularity of movies in the short term, but water army cannot leave traces. Once traces are left, it will be more costly for him.
It is easy to be attacked by opponents and easy to attract fans' plans.
One of the reasons why he has been able to maintain such a high popularity is that he does not hire water army. In everyone's opinion, he stands with fans, not with capital.
No matter which fan, in fact, they hate the guidance of public opinion by capital. No one wants everything they see to be guided by humans.
On the way home, Xu Nuo posted a Weibo to promote the movie: "Crazy Stone will be a groundbreaking work, and the spring of comedy has come!"
This is very crazy, but it is not bragging. After all, according to his plan, there will be a series of comedy films such as "Lost on Journey" and "A Chinese Odyssey" later. It is not an exaggeration to say that the spring of comedy has come.
It was already past twelve o'clock, but there were still many people who did not sleep and surfed the Internet crazily.
"Okay, okay, if it's not good, wait for me to come back and beat you."
"For what you said, I bought this ticket."
"I have seen "Crazy Stone", and there are almost laughs throughout the whole process. I strongly recommend it."
"I have seen it too, it's quite interesting."
Due to the crazy complaints of the audience about several other movies, and many people recommended "Crazy Stone", many netizens decided to go and see this movie.
The popularity of "Crazy Stone" has risen again.
At this time, major theaters are nervously counting data.
"The data of "Shura" is out, the attendance rate is 51%."
"The attendance rate of "Myth and Legend" is 52%."
The staff paused and swallowed, "Crazy Stone... the attendance rate is 75%."
"Well, is there anything wrong with the data?"
"No problem, I have confirmed it repeatedly."
What does a 75% attendance rate mean? It means that if they increase the number of screenings, they can make more money.
Almost at the same time, major theaters adjusted their screenings. Those with poor performance further compressed the screening rate. "Crazy Stone" increased its screening rate to 20%.
Almost comparable to "Shura" and "Myth and Legend", with an investment of 10 million, it is successful enough to share the screening with real big productions.
A new day has arrived, and the real competition has just begun.
