My movie scared the global audience to tears

Chapter 25 Box Office Breaks 100 Million!

The doctor prescribed a one-week stay for An Qin, and An Qin spent the next few days in the hospital.

She originally thought that the company would be in chaos, but she didn't expect that after a few days, the company was running normally, and she was a little idle.

After trying the food in the hospital cafeteria once, she asked Song Qi not to bring food to her and order food from the cafeteria instead.

The food in the hospital cafeteria tastes good and is convenient.

Moreover, Song Qi's work has also become busy, and it is impossible to deliver food to her three times a day.

"Jaws" has become a huge hit.

Three days after its release, it has become a hot topic on the Internet, and "Jaws" is being discussed in everyone's circle of friends.

"This is the scariest movie I've ever seen!"

"When that shark appeared, I almost pissed myself!"

"Have you ever felt that when you watch a movie, you always feel like you are being stared at by a wild beast? When I watched the movie, my heart nearly jumped out of my chest!"

"I never thought a fish could be so scary! I will never eat fish again!"

After news reports came out about a girl in Huizhou who was so frightened by the movie that she fainted and was sent to the hospital, "Jaws" became even more popular.

In front of the theaters owned by Yinguang Cinemas, there was actually a line of people that would only line up during the three prime time slots.

At the time of release, "Jaws" was only signed with one theater chain, Yingang Cinema, so you could only buy movie tickets for "Jaws" in theaters owned by Yinguang Cinemas.

In front of the national audience, the hundreds of thousands of seats in the Yinguang Cinema Line are obviously not enough.

As a last resort, Silver Cinema Line could only repeatedly compress the schedule of other movies of the same period, increase the number of screenings, and even increase ticket prices.

Even so, every time "Jaws" is added, the tickets will still be sold out.

Even in front of some theaters, scalpers have become active, speculating on the price of movie tickets, with the highest price even exceeding 200 yuan.

You must know that the price of ordinary movie tickets is only ten or twenty yuan, and two hundred yuan is enough to buy ten movie tickets.

But even so, some people still pinched their noses and bought it just to see "Jaws".

Under this hot craze, the box office of "Jaws" is also rising rapidly. The cumulative box office exceeded 100 million on the third day and is quickly heading towards 200 million.

However, everyone in the industry feels sorry for this box office failure.

Because Jaws has only signed a contract with one theater chain, with the popularity of "Jaws", if it were signed to be released in all theaters, the box office would have to be at least ten times higher!

If it is released in the three prime time slots, it is possible that the total box office will exceed 10 billion!

However, due to the director's history of being a hit with the public and the fact that this was a low-budget film with a new theme, many theater chains did not choose "Jaws", and as a result, Silver Cinema took advantage of it.

However, such tight movie tickets have also added fuel to the popularity of "Jaws", forming the effect of hunger marketing and raising the popularity of the movie to a new level.

For a time, the entire Internet was discussing this movie, and the amount of attention in social groups such as horror movie bars and pod horror movie discussion groups was also rising rapidly.

Moreover, all movie-related media are rushing to report on this horror movie.

"Horror movies usher in the new year? "Jaws" sets off a new trend in horror movies!"

"Jaws! The deepest fear, don't get eaten!"

"Looking at film narrative techniques from "Jaws" and discussing how important foreshadowing is!"

Correspondingly, film director and leading actor Song Qi also became popular overnight.

Song Qi has accepted many interviews these days, and reports about him quickly appeared in front of the audience.

"With an investment of 15 million, the box office exceeded 100 million in three days, who is Song Qi?"

"Innovative themes for horror movies, young directors are the future!"

"From owing the company 170 million yuan to landing overnight, what kind of miracle did Song Qi perform?"

After seeing the report, many viewers learned that the leading actor in the movie was the director, and that it was a low-cost movie with a small investment.

"It turns out that the male protagonist is the director! Sure enough, excellent people are excellent in any field!"

"The male protagonist is so handsome! He is so manly! I feel so safe!"

"Niu Bei! If I owed more than 100 million, I would probably jump off the building, what a man!"

"It's better to make money by making movies! A debt of over RMB 100 million was repaid in just one movie."

"You think it's easy to earn more than 100 million at the box office? Let's make a movie like "Jaws" first!"

In just a few days, Song Qi's Weibo account gained hundreds of thousands of fans, all of whom added him after watching "Jaws".

At first, everyone was still expressing their appreciation and love, but after a netizen posted a picture of a shark with the text "How many of these sharks do you think it takes to beat Brother Qi?", the comments started to drop.

The area became a venue for fighting.

Weird sharks were posted one after another, and netizens posted haha ​​emoticons and @Song Qi, asking him to accept the challenge in the comment area.

Naturally, Song Qi would not really respond to such a boring challenge, but netizens had a great time and even gave him the nickname "Brother Shark", which sounded like something from a cartoon

Villain role.

As a result, Song Qi simply changed his account name to "Brother Shark" and also changed his avatar to a great white shark.

However, there are many celebrities and right-wingers. While "Jaws" became popular, some discordant voices also emerged.

Some film critics posted some reviews of "Jaws" on Doujia.com, and they were quite critical of the film's content.

"A vulgar commercial movie full of nudity and bloody scenes should not be so praised."

"It caters to the audience's vulgar tastes, the content is empty and boring, and has no connotation."

"Destroying the marine environment, promoting violent ideas, and excessively expressing the director's personal views."

"It's just a monster that can't turn into a human. It's no different from ordinary horror movies."

Similar comments flooded the film reviews, and were accepted by many simple-minded viewers, who began to criticize "Jaws" together.

These criticisms quickly reached Song Qi's ears, and Doujia.com was also one of the main marketing sites for "Jaws" in the early stages.

Song Qi didn't pay attention at first. There are a thousand Hamlets in the eyes of a thousand people, and a movie cannot be liked by everyone.

But as the criticism grew more and more, he couldn't help but pay less attention to it.

It is normal for there to be different voices on the Internet, but if it appears on a large scale, it means that there must be someone behind it who is adding fuel to the fire.

Soon, these criticisms began to appear in media reports, instantly making Song Qi alert.

Once anything is involved in the media, it is suspected of leading public opinion.

Is there someone behind this?

After the media reported it, Song Qi's blog was attacked. Overnight, many people flooded into the comment area, accusing Song Qi of destroying the marine environment and causing ecological impact by filming in the ocean.

After seeing these remarks, Song Qi quickly determined that someone must have hired trolls to stir up trouble and attack him, because the angle of this public opinion offensive was very cleverly chosen.

This wave of public opinion offensive does not criticize the quality of the movie "Jaws". If you attack him from this angle, it will definitely not have a very good effect.

Because whether a movie is good or not is a very subjective matter. Nowadays, "Jaws" has a very good reputation. Attacking the quality of the movie is undoubtedly an attack on the enemy and will not be accepted by many netizens.

But choosing to attack it from the perspective of real-life shots of the ocean and destruction of the marine environment can easily make many netizens review the movie from the moral perspective of environmental protection.

Once you adopt the mentality of finding faults, you will definitely find faults, because there is no perfect thing in the world.

Song Qi did not reply immediately because this was obviously a trap set by the other party. No matter how he replied, there would be tricks waiting for him later.

This is a war of public opinion. Song Qi must find an opportunity to defeat the enemy with one strike, otherwise he will be dragged into the quagmire.

And his silent attitude also made many skeptical netizens question him.

If he has a clear conscience, why doesn't he come forward to explain?

As a result, the voices of questioning and accusation online began to increase.

At this moment, a piece of news suddenly appeared on the Internet.

The deputy director of the Queensland Tourism Bureau in Australia calls for a boycott of the movie "Jaws"!

After seeing this news, the Internet instantly went crazy.

Some officials actually came out to call for a boycott!

Something big happened!
