Entertainment Empire

Chapter 206 Sold Out

Luo Xun really guessed it.

Seeing the box office of "Kung Fu" in the first week, Zhou Xingchi was already looking forward to the box office exceeding 200 million. He almost immediately got in touch with the relevant publicity to increase capital investment in the promotion of the film.

Impact 200 million!

China’s 200 million box office!

This is a world that no one can enter except for "Titanic" and "Heroes". Now he also has the qualifications to enter, and it seems that the hope is not small. Of course, if he joins Xiangjiang As for the box office, it is even more foolproof, because in addition to the performance in the mainland market, the results of this movie have actually been achieved——

Mainland Xiangjiang, two blooms?

In short, "Kung Fu" was released in the Hong Kong market at the same time as the mainland, and the current box office trend is very good. It has a faint tendency to surpass "Shaolin Football". You must know that the former movie broke the box office record of Hong Kong movies!

Not only that.

Because Columbia is responsible for distribution, "Kung Fu" has also signed a release contract with the North American market. This is Zhou Xingchi's third target market besides the mainland and Hong Kong...

Week two.

The propaganda begins.

An interview venue was set up in a certain room of Huanyue. Li Feng, the gold medal editor of "Literary News", was personally responsible for this exclusive interview, and he brought his team to the door, because Luo Xun's recent interview was a bit difficult to get an appointment——

Luo Xun arrived at the company on time.

Luo Xun had done a lot of similar interviews and was already familiar with it, so after a polite exchange between the two parties, they determined the general scope of the interview and started the work.

Most of the time we talked about movies.

Later, Li Feng talked about Zhou Xingchi. He smiled and said: "After filming "Kung Fu", Mr. Xing expressed his high praise for you on many occasions. Many people are curious about your relationship in private, because the outside world has Zhou Xingchi’s comments are always accompanied by various controversies..."

"He's fine."

Luo Xun said seriously: "He is a very attentive filmmaker. He will give me some performance guidance when filming. Outside of filming, our communication is more like friends. Regarding the controversy about him from the outside world, I think This is because most people cannot tell the difference between work and private life, and Mr. Xing is a person who distinguishes between public and private matters, not just filming itself, but even business cooperation. He will discuss cooperation with you from the perspective of Xinghui’s boss, He has to be responsible for the show, the company, and the investors, so he always has a lot to bear, but I always feel that he is too tired because of this, and he is too tired to explain when facing controversy..."

"Too tired from living?"

Li Feng was frightened by Luo Xun's shocking words. If the relationship wasn't really close enough, I don't know what Zhou Xingchi would have thought after hearing this comment. But Luo Xun dared to say it, so he naturally dared to continue the interview: "Then Are you surprised by the box office success of "Kung Fu"?"

"No surprise."

Luo Xun smiled.

Li Feng raised his eyebrows. Here Luo Xun answered whether he was surprised or not, and he could move in and out freely: "Why do you say it's not surprising? Is it because of your confidence in the quality of the movie?"

"no."

Luo Xun's smile did not change: "The filming of "Kung Fu" was very careful, but from an actor's point of view, I cannot predict the quality of the finished product in advance, so it is not so much confidence in the movie, but confidence in Zhou Xingchi."

"How to say?"

"A long time ago, I started to watch Xingye's movies, the recent "Kung Fu Football", the more distant "Kung Fu Dragon" series, "The King of Comedy", "Westward Journey", "Tang Bohu Spots Qiuxiang" and so on. It can be said that I have not missed any of his comedy movies, but it is very regrettable that I have watched so many of Zhou Xingchi's movies through discs and other means. I have never been to a cinema or bought a ticket. It has to be said that it is a pity to support him, so since then I have been thinking that when Zhou Xingchi has a new movie released in the future, I will definitely buy a ticket and go to the cinema to support him!"

Li Feng laughed.

Luo Xun shrugged: "I didn't expect that I would support Master Xing in this way - I played a bad guy in Zhou Xingchi's "Kung Fu" -"

Li Feng laughed even louder.

Luo Xun's expression became serious again: "Actually, I have watched so many of Mr. Xing's movies before, but I have never spent money to support them. I always feel that I owe Mr. Xing a movie ticket."

I owe Mr. Xing a movie ticket?

Li Feng's smile stopped and he seemed to be deep in thought. The next day, this interview was reported by "Literary News".

Unknowingly.

There were more people in the cinema.

It was already the second day of the second week of the movie's release, and there was a rare long queue in a movie theater in Yanjing. Several ticket sellers were busy selling tickets.

"A piece of Kung Fu."

"Two copies of Kung Fu."

"A ticket to Kung Fu."

"Give me three tickets to Kung Fu."

"Give me a gong... I went, but I was almost led astray. I have already watched Zhou Xingchi's "Kung Fu", and today I have two tickets for "A World Without Thieves"."

The conductor nodded.

Since the release of the two movies, the tickets for "Kung Fu" have been selling better than those for "A World Without Thieves", so even though most people wanted to buy tickets for "Kung Fu" at first, a few ticket sellers didn't think it was strange, they just casually bought them. As time went by, they finally realized something was wrong——

Several conductors looked at each other.

Too many people bought Kung Fu today!

They are very sensitive to the number of tickets, so they know that Kung Fu has sold enough tickets normally, almost twice as many as A World Without Thieves, but looking at the situation today, it is estimated that it has sold twice as many tickets!

"Give me a Kung Fu ticket."

At this time, another young man with acne in the queue spoke up. The ticket seller subconsciously reached out to take the ticket, but in the end his hand grabbed nothing. He looked at the empty ticket warehouse with a slightly suspicious look, and he suddenly froze for a moment:

No more!

Sold out!

The other ticket sellers also noticed this situation, and they looked at each other in disbelief.

And the same scene.

It happened in more than one theater!

On the second day of the second week of the release, many theaters' golden show tickets for Stephen Chow's Kung Fu were sold out for the first time. Because the incident happened so suddenly, major theaters didn't even have time to adjust the movie showtimes-

What's going on?

This is unscientific!

Some theater managers who heard the news were dumbfounded. According to the trend of "Kung Fu", the box office in the second week should have dropped, but why did it increase on the second day of the second week instead of increasing?
