My movie scared the global audience to tears

When Liu Hang and his wife left the theater, most of the audience in the theater still had red eyes.

The trash can at the exit was already filled with paper towels, accumulated from the audience wiping their tears during the movie.

On Valentine's Day in previous years, some data analysis companies judged the box office potential of movies based on the number of tissues in the trash cans in theaters.

However, this method is somewhat shameful and has always been regarded as a secret.

Generally speaking, during Valentine's Day, in a full theater, the weight of tissue waste exceeds 20 kilograms, which is considered a very good figure.

But it is said that in this year's "I Saw a Ghost in My Left Eye", the average weight of garbage so far has exceeded 30 kilograms.

Some cinemas have even created a terrifying figure of fifty kilograms.

This is just one factor in analyzing the movie's potential from a side perspective. In fact, the potential of this movie no longer requires side analysis. Everyone can see it. Its data has already exploded.

Since its release, all the data of this movie has directly shot to the first place in the schedule.

After the first day, the movie directly scored 5.681 billion at the box office on the first day, more than doubling the schedule record.

The Valentine's Day period is just a small period, and the odds are not big.

After the market has been squeezed by the Spring Festival stall and the Lantern Festival stall, there is not much oil left for the Valentine stall.

And because of the special nature of the festival, only romantic films have always been chosen to be released during this period, just like the previous Zhongyuan period.

However, the handicap for the Lover's Category is ultimately larger than that for the Zhongyuan Category. After all, the audience for love-themed movies is always larger than the audience for horror-themed movies.

This year, Song Qi's "I Saw a Ghost in My Left Eye" combined these two unrelated themes and attracted two groups of audiences together.

Since December last year, audiences have been bombarded with countless modern LY-type bad movies, and they are tired of it.

Therefore, when Song Qi's movie was released, the audience immediately burst out with strong enthusiasm for watching the movie, and the box office of the movie naturally exploded.

Song Qi did not disappoint the audience, and the film's reputation quickly exploded. It was rated five stars by countless viewers, and the score once reached 9.6 points.

All major film review websites were occupied by excited viewers, and all film review websites were flooded with posts.

Countless viewers expressed their excitement online.

"This is the best modern LY movie I have ever seen, and it is also the best romance movie I have ever seen!"

"I strongly recommend that directors who follow the trend and make modern LY movies watch this movie. This is called a modern LY movie! You won't even copy the homework!"

"A typical Song Qi-style movie with a twist at the end. This routine was used once in "The Sixth Sense", but when it is used again in this movie, it doesn't feel familiar at all. It's still very good to watch. Why not?

Can people learn the essence of Song Qi?"

"Song Qi's movies have some scary scenes, but this movie is an exception. My boyfriend and I were already prepared to be scared, but we didn't expect that Song Qi would use such a romantic way to interpret a ghost relationship.

My wife’s last love is so touching!”

"Tch! How much love can we have after we've only known each other for seven days? To be honest, I thought the same thing at the beginning, but after seeing it later, I suddenly realized that love is never something that can be accumulated over time. Love is a kind of love.

It feels like a meeting of eyes and a panicked heartbeat. As long as you really love me enough, seven days can be as long as a lifetime."

"This is the best romance movie I have ever seen! He Lizhu is really happy! She has a husband who loves her so much that he will stay with her even after he dies.

Also, that interlude is really nice! Does anyone know what it’s called?”

"If there are no accidents, this movie should be the champion of this year's Lovers category, and Song Qi has once again proved his strength.

It can be seen that this is a piece of fun that Song Qi shot casually. His and An Qin's performances in the movie are very relaxed. It doesn't feel like they are performing, but more like they are playing, showing affection across the screen.

However, Song Qi's strong strength is also evident. Even if he is having fun, the rhythm and theme of this movie are always firmly in Song Qi's hands.

As a viewer, I also learned an important truth from this movie, that is, never say that the subject matter is not good, only the people are not good, colleagues in the industry should learn more!"

Don't be afraid of not knowing the goods, just be afraid of comparing goods.

With Song Qi's "The Sixth Sense" at the forefront, the audience naturally couldn't stand the large number of modern LY bad movies that followed the trend.

The quality of the Lunar New Year movies was so bad that they basically ended up losing money.

This batch of modern LY movies in the Spring Festival stalls took advantage of the popularity of Song Qi's new movie and cheated the box office. However, within a few days, the box office began to shrink. In the end, only a few movies made money, and most of the movies just recovered their costs.

The successive box office setbacks have greatly dampened the market's confidence in movies with the theme of modern LY.

All producers want to make money. No matter how good-looking a subject is that makes no money, no one will be willing to film it.

Originally everyone thought this would be a new trend, but they didn't expect that so many people and funds rushed into the market, but they all jumped on it completely.

After seeing this situation, many producers were puzzled.

Why are the producers who followed the trend and made zombie movies and zombie movies all made money, but the producers who followed the trend and made modern LY movies all went bankrupt?

They are all just following the trend, so why can’t modern LY movies follow the trend?

After one modern LY movie hit the market one after another, some people in the industry came to a conclusion.

It’s not that modern LY movies have trouble following the trend, it’s that producers who want to fish in troubled waters and run away as soon as they can make a profit have trouble following the trend.

During the Spring Festival, there were still a few modern LY movies that made money.

And they all have one thing in common, that is, the plot is exciting enough.

Song Qi's modern LY movies are different from his zombie and zombie movies. They are not movies based on the same model at all.

Zombies and zombie movies, the theme is the confrontation between humans and zombies, zombies, and they are movies with heavier commercial elements.

Directors can use commercial scenes such as gun battles, drag racing, and explosions to stimulate the audience and give them a sense of satisfaction.

And these commercial scenes are basically content that produces output based on investment. Even if the plot is not very good, as long as hundreds of zombies can be blown up into the sky with a large amount of explosives, the audience will still find it enjoyable and think that the money is well spent.

Worth it.

But modern LY movies are different. Its theme is not confrontation, but the exchange of emotions.

Take "The Sixth Sense" as an example. Its story content is not about humans catching ghosts, but through the communication between humans and ghosts to achieve emotional communication and stimulate the soul.

To create such a story, you need to know how to design plot conflicts, how to foreshadow it, and how to create emotional explosions, which is much more difficult.

To put it simply, "The Sixth Sense" is actually a relatively artistic film. It has very high requirements for plot design, and it is not easy to follow the trend.

These creators who followed the trend either underestimated the difficulty of creating this subject, or underestimated Song Qi's strength.

"The Sixth Sense" is a good movie that can win awards, but can it be compared to those bad movies that they made casually in a month or two and fooled the audience?

To put it bluntly, these movie creators who are rushing to the street deserve it!

Isn't it natural for me to make some shoddy and bad movies in order to impress the audience, but in the end I failed to do so?

The audience is not stupid, they must be fooled by you?

Just hit the streets!

These creators who follow the trend should be reminded that no matter what the subject of the movie, a serious creative attitude is more important than anything else.

Respect is mutual!
