Since 1983

December 23, Taiyuan.

The zero point scene of "A World Without Thieves" has nothing to do with this city, people live as usual, yesterday Friday, today Saturday, that's all.

Xiao Wang works in a theater in this city, and it is impossible to double repair, so he can only take a monthly break.

At 8:30 in the morning, she arrived at the theater, cleaned up, changed her uniform, and prepared for a day of ticket sales.

The uniforms are ugly. I heard that Yishui's white shirts, black stockings, and small black suits are worn by brothers in the capital. But it can't be implemented, because there is no guarantee of heating here, and it will freeze to death in winter.

Even so, the theater is not bad locally, otherwise it will not join the China Film Times.

"Manager, when are we going to renovate?"

"The leaders above are negotiating with that side. If that side can hold a controlling stake, they will invest money to help us upgrade and upgrade."

"Then do you think we can negotiate?"

"Okay, it's easy to hug your thigh."

The manager chatted with everyone and asked, "Xiao Wang, is the schedule ready?"

"It's done. "A World Without Thieves" is a bit too much, accounting for 90%."

"More than 90%? I don't even look at the movies that are available now. If it weren't for the theater regulations, I would want to be 100%!"

"Are there so many people watching?"

"Hey, the box office at zero o'clock..."

The manager hesitated to speak, and said: "Forget it, you will know when it is announced. This film will hit the single-day box office and the first-week box office, and theaters across the country are waiting.

Well, this year's New Year's film debut, let's cheer up! "

At 9 o'clock, the personnel are in place.

I expected that this film would be popular, but I didn't expect that a few spectators would walk in the first scene during the day. Not much, but a big improvement from before.

The audience was amazed by the uniformly customized poster and the life-size human figure standing sign, and they were unsure and asked: "Is "A World Without Thieves" released?

I heard that a meeting will be held here, is it true? "

"Hello. The film will be released today. You can buy tickets for the first show. The meeting will be confirmed. The specific time is still being communicated."

Xiao Wang kept smiling: "Next, I recommend you to apply for a membership card..."

The same scene happened all over the country, not just in the China Film era.

The first batch of 30 theaters, 872 franchised theaters, 1581 screens. The average price is 1.8 yuan per family, which is so shabby.

Except for places where the conditions are really not good, generally larger theaters are included in the scope of unified screening. This number is 610, 1098 screens.

Unprecedented in the country.

If the proportion of film schedules for later generations can exceed 30%, it is considered a strong push. There are fewer screens now, but there are also fewer film sources. "A World Without Thieves" can get an insane amount of films.

…………

Night, China Film Times Studios.

The hustle and bustle of the zero point field has not disappeared, and the staff ushered in a busy day.

Compared with yesterday, the ticket hall has changed a lot. In addition to the human-shaped stand signboard for publicity, a place was actually circled, sprinkled with artificial snow, and a sleigh pulled by reindeer sat on Santa Claus.

There is also an empty seat next to Santa Claus, and the sign says: "You can take pictures, don't damage it."

What's more, those black silk ladies are also wearing red Christmas hats...

"At 7:10, two copies of "A World Without Thieves"!"

"Sorry, it's sold out, there's still more at 7:40."

"ah?"

The girl was unhappy, and said: "7:40 is the small hall, I want to see Hall 2."

"Aren't they all the same?"

"My roommate watched the Zero Show in Hall 2, and said that the sound system was too overbearing... Is there any more at 9:20?"

"some."

"Then buy 9:20."

"We have an event now, couple tickets are half price. You volunteer to participate, and if you pass, you can enjoy half price."

Hiss!

The boy trembled all over, oops, is there still an exam? But how do couples take the exam? Could it be the kissing contest seen in the movie?

What will she do if she agrees? Should I hold back or refuse with words, can I stick out my tongue? ? ?

The two went to the other side, where they set up a small table surrounded by spectators.

The host said loudly: "When two people come on stage, it doesn't matter if they are a man and a woman, a man and a man, or a woman and a woman. If you hug for 10 seconds, you can enjoy a half-price discount and participate in the lucky draw with your membership card.

The prizes are all behind me, they are extremely rich..."

If it's a kiss, I'm still a little worried, who cares about a hug?

The scene was lively, a couple went up, and everyone counted together: "10, 9, 8, 7..."

The boys and girls are also bold enough to go up, don't look at so many brains, first love, the first time to hug a fragrant and soft girl.

Feet are soft.

Teacher Xu is like the old moon in the legend, how many couples he made and broke up.

The young man pierced the window paper, held hands naturally, and went shopping elsewhere first.

When I came to the bookstore on the second floor, it became quiet instantly. There were not many things on the shelves, and they were all series products. Such as the original soundtrack of "The Wind", signed posters, and a picture book of behind-the-scenes stories.

A collection of previous Lunar New Year movies of Tianxia Film and Television, photos of its stars, desk calendars, etc.

Few people buy it, just take a stroll. The girl looked around, and suddenly found a big box, and asked, "What is this?"

"Movie Puzzle."

The clerk introduced: "Do you know the five-year plan... Yes, we will make a jigsaw puzzle for every movie, this one is "A World Without Thieves".

And these films can also be put together to form a film projector pattern. "

"It's not interesting."

The girl muttered.

The clerk said with a smile: "The rise of Chinese films depends not only on filmmakers, but also on everyone's support. This is actually a reward activity. As long as you put together the projector, you can get a VIP card with the highest level."

"What is the use?"

"Watching movies here, you will always be free."

Wow!

The girl was surprised, and a little stunned, as if she was endowed with meaning, value, and sense of history in an instant!

Immediately bought a puzzle set.

...

Hall 5.

Xu Fei and Tsui Hark lead a cast of starring roles, and they are holding a media conference.

The reporters had seen the media field of "A World Without Thieves" in advance, and today is a form of propaganda.

"Director Xu, it's your first time to shoot a movie in mainland China, can you talk about your feelings?"

"The biggest feeling is the rhythm. No matter what you do in Hong Kong, it is very fast, but here is slower, not to say that it is underdeveloped, but very standardized, beyond my imagination.

Shooting a movie in Hong Kong for a few days is not a healthy method of operation. I think "A World Without Thieves" is the most organized movie I have ever worked on. "

"Which actor impressed you the most?"

"Teacher Ge You."

Ge You didn't dare to dare, Xu Lao laughed and said: "I can't find an actor with a slow pace like Mr. Ge in Hong Kong. His line style was not used to it at first, but after the exchange, I think it is a great one." kind of way."

"Gong Li, you have always been keen on art films, why have you frequently appeared in commercial films in recent years?"

"You should ask my boss, I can't make the decision."

Gong Li blamed it, Teacher Xu said with a smile: "The dispute between business and art, I expressed my views at the Golden Rooster Awards, so I won't repeat it."

It's okay not to mention it, but it's exciting to mention it.

"Mr. Xu, when will you prepare for the new award?"

"Have you thought of a name yet?"

"Is it really based on the media?"

He hastily interrupted: "Going off topic, let's not talk about this, continue!"

A reporter said: "According to some viewers, they couldn't accept Wang Bo's death, and thought it was a tragedy and shouldn't be put in the Lunar New Year file. Others said that Boss Xu kept making commercial films, but ended up with an artistic ending."

"Either the ending is tragic, it is literature and art, and everyone is happy, it is business. As long as the ending is logical and not twisted, there is nothing to dispute."

"But there is an argument on the Internet, saying that because the hero is a thief, there can't be a happy ending. What do you think of this?"

"I agree."

"ah?"

The reporter thought he was going to refute.

""A World Without Thieves" is a mainstream commercial film in the mainland. What is a mainstream commercial film? It is a film that conforms to mainstream values. Evil cannot prevail, good people are rewarded, and those who break the law will be punished...

Is this wrong?

Of course you are.

The key is whether we can have more genre films and whether our policies can be more open so that everyone can see movies of different styles. "

"Then do you think the policy will be more open?"

"All I can say is, we're all working hard."

After the interview, the waiter carried plastic bags one by one, all of which were simple meals from the store downstairs.

The reporters ate here, and the main creator went to Hall 3 to eat, also pizza, beef rice and the like.

Old Freak Xu felt very strange, and said: "I was wrong just now. Boss Xu's film production is slow, but the promotion is much faster than Hong Kong. I have never experienced such an intense promotion schedule."

"Let you adapt in advance, get used to it early."

Shi Nansheng was slick, and asked, "Mr. Xu, has the zero-time box office come out?"

"It came out, we counted it in the box office on the first day, and it will be announced in a few days."

"You can tell from your appearance that it's not bad. Is this movie over 100 million?"

"But what am I busy with? Don't think it's too much, the mainland is so big."

"Yes, the mainland is so big."

Shi Nansheng agreed very much, that's why he supported Tsui Hark's friendship with the boss and paved the way for going north.

Xu Fei took a piece of pizza and approached the actor: "How do you feel?"

"I feel anxious about next year."

Ge You said unexpectedly, "I suddenly felt a little regretful, you said that every film will be popular, but no one can guarantee that all of them will be popular.

Succeed this year, fail next year? The audience likes you now, will they hate you later? I've been under unexplainable pressure recently, and I feel that I'm really going to be hated by the audience, so I'll just retire. "

"Come on, I used to play your niece, but now I play your lover, don't the audience still like you?" Cao Ying teased him.

"puff!"

"puff!"

Spray all over the table.

Zhao Yanni was abducted by Bai Fendou!

Ye Qingjie!

After resting for half a day, watching Hall 2 was almost finished, a group of people got up and went over.

The credits list scrolled on the screen, the lights just came on, and the main creator Hulala appeared on the stage. There were cheers in an instant, but the reporter continued to take pictures before leaving.

Tsui Hark was enthusiastic and positive, after all, it was the first match.

Old people like Ge You and Gong Li even calculate their smiles to a fraction of a cent, just to save some effort. They know that this is only the beginning of the devil's propaganda.
