Many people may have forgotten that this day was originally Singles' Day, after all, it has been so long ago.
Nowadays, Double Eleven every year has completely turned into a shopping festival for merchants, and Double Eleven even starts at the end of September.
One wave after another under the banner of Double Eleven, just to make you spend money.
Of course, everyone has forgotten that Double Eleven is Singles’ Day, because Double Eleven every year basically becomes a festival to show affection.
That’s right.
Just show affection.
Double Eleven is all about giving out red envelopes. Many people show off in their circle of friends after receiving the red envelopes.
This is true for those who get married and fall in love.
As for the cinema, not to mention, people in the love stage are actually willing to go to the cinema to watch a movie.
But in the past two years, the antagonism between men and women online has been too fierce. In short, no one is willing to be a licker anymore. Because of this, more and more people are not willing to spend money anymore. .
Of course, there is also one aspect to the bad economy.
Anyway, fewer couples go to the cinema these days anyway. In addition to the real New Year's Eve, everyone also has a sense of ritual.
As for this so-called Double Eleven, who cares? ?
That’s right.
Because of this, pre-sale during a small period is not ideal.
It was precisely because of this that Yang Tian was worried when she saw that the pre-sales were only this small.
Because she didn’t dare to think about it.
If "Parallel Cohabitation" really fails to reach the box office of 100 million, what should she do? ?
“Actually, there’s no need to worry.”
Lin Xing waved his hand slightly and said: “First of all, we didn’t make up this movie, we shot it seriously. Secondly, we will We have worked hard to promote it, and we have done everything we need to do. If it really fails, then we can actually accept it..."
At this point, Lin Xing paused and smiled and joked: "What's more, it's really a hit. I'm the tallest person to support it. Think about the box office of my first three movies. If this one The movie can't even reach 100 million. Who do you think the media will really blame?"
Meng Yan also laughed at this time: "A Xing, Do you know what I admire most about you? Mentality."
"Yeah, I'm actually a little nervous."
Wu Qifeng also sighed and said, "After all, this is my first time playing a major role in a movie. , I would also be a little worried if I fail."
Yang Tian said: "I am under the greatest pressure, because if I really fail, I feel that no one will want to use me in the future."< br>
"No."
Lin Xing said to Yang Tian: "Believe me, no one will use you in the future, I will use you."
Good guy.
At this time, Lin Xing really seemed to be a bit domineering.
Of course, Lin Xing is really not because of anything else.
First of all, Yang Tian didn't ask for any salary for this movie. Not only that, Yang Tian also got a lot of favors and money.
Not to mention time.
Although Yang Tian does not have many good scripts now, if she wants to perform commercially or participate in events, she will have a lot of money.
From this aspect, at least it can be said that Yang Tian still has something to pursue.
If he could follow the example of some of his peers and just make money, then Yang Tian could definitely start a live broadcast.
As far as Yang Tian's traffic is concerned, if she becomes an anchor, the money won't be crazy.
Not to mention that Yang Tian has been really conscientious in publicity in the past few days since the premiere of "Parallel Cohabitation".
These Lin Xing all see it.
He felt that he had to be kind. If others helped him so much, he would definitely help them too.
First of all, at the beginning of the promotion of "Parallel Living", Lin Xing took the initiative to take over himself.
That is, don't worry about the box office of "Parallel Cohabitation". It's none of anyone else's business. Even Lin Xing can be responsible for the box office.
But Lin Xing also made it clear in advance that he does not think that a single actor is responsible for the success of a movie.
In addition, Lin Xing also tried his best to help Yang Tian.
After all, others can see Yang Tian's pressure.
Now, since Yang Tian is still so worried, Lin Xing might as well just give everyone a reassurance first.
"Actually, I read the novel that Wang Qingfa's audience recommended. It's the rebirth novel. I think it's pretty good. I've already had someone buy the copyright..."
Lin Xing He smiled and said: "After the filming of "Death on Earth" is completed, I may act in this film. If you still have time, we can play it again."
"No. Question.”
Wu Qifeng agreed directly.
He is still willing to cooperate with Lin Xing, not just because he wants to be popular, because Wu Qifeng also wants to film seriously, and working with Lin Xing is just such a joy.
In addition to this, Yang Tian felt that her efforts had finally paid off. Wasn't that what she thought at the beginning? ?
It would be okay even if "Parallel Cohabitation" fails, as long as Lin Xing is willing to play with her next time.
Now that Lin Xing is willing, what else is there to say? ? ?
“Okay, we’ll talk about the future later, and we have to prepare for the worst, but “Parallel Living” hasn’t been released yet, so we can’t admit defeat...”
Lin Xing looked at the crowd and said: "I still say the same thing. At any time, we have to prepare for the worst, but we have to do our best. Let's work together for the next road show."
Everyone also said: "Let's work hard together."
The next day, November 11th, today is Double Eleven.
But basically nothing has changed.
Yes.
Because everyone has bought everything they should buy. You must know that under the general environment, it is really difficult in many cases and it is impossible to buy and buy all the time.
You just need to stimulate it again, and you just make the other person take medicine. If it doesn't work, it won't work.
As for the cinema today, it was actually quite busy.
Because almost five movies were released at the same time today.
That’s right.
It is not just the movie "Parallel Living", there are other movies that were also released.
The bureau coordinated a bit, and then added two more romantic movies.
Yes.
The other two are also romance films.
Then I thought that the Double Eleven period would be better.
One of those two romantic films is called "Unspeakable Love" and the other is called "Love Is Provident". What should I say? ?
These two romantic comedies actually followed a path of happy endings, even sadder than "Parallel Living".
In the end of "Unspeakable Love" the heroine died of cancer.
At the end of "Love Is Provident", the male protagonist died in a car accident.
Hey guys, after the first game ended, the Internet started to curse.
"What the hell, are you crazy? Why did I watch "Unspeakable Love" with my date on Double Eleven, and it turned out to be a tragedy??" Change it up. It’s a comedy in the front and a tragedy in the back. What’s going on?”
“It’s really annoying now. I really don’t want to watch this kind of romance movie.”
“I recommend you not to watch "Unspeakable Love". This movie is a typical pretentious movie, and the script is really rubbish, man. I won’t talk about the protagonist and heroine because I’m afraid of being bitten by fans.”
……
"Damn, damn, "Love Is Provided" was filmed ten fucking years ago. Are there still such trashy movies being made now??"
"I don't know what to say, " "Love and Providence" has ruined so many good actors."
"Double Eleven. I think you should watch "Parallel Living". I watched this one when I ordered it, and I thought it was good."
...
In addition to these two movies, there are two other suspense movies. Not to mention horror and the like, because they are relatively niche to begin with.
As for the current market for old films, it’s not that good.
Because of this, "Parallel Cohabitation" has actually been treated as a bailout by theaters, regardless of whether it is willing or not.
No, the film schedule for "Parallel Cohabitation", which opened on the first day, is as high as 30%. This is actually a lot of films.
Because of this, many people feel that the box office of "Parallel Cohabitation" must be strong on the first day.
As for Double Eleven, the box office must be tens of millions.
In particular, Lin Xing said in a previous interview that he felt that the film was chosen for a small release in the hope that the audience would choose it. After all, big movies are chosen for a large release, so wouldn't the audience be able to see it in a small release? ?
This is true, and it is indeed quite encouraging.
With the official release of "Parallel Cohabitation" today, it actually has a pretty good reputation among passers-by and word-of-mouth.
"I think "Parallel Cohabitation" really takes an unusual path. I really think this film is very good."
"Who says it's not? Lin Xing plays in it. It’s great, I’ve said it before, Lin Xing’s performance is superb.”
"In terms of domineering presidents, Lin Xingyan is really good at playing a slightly sinister person like him."
......
Everyone comes out after watching "Parallel Living" Let’s talk more about the content later.
After all, this is not just a comedy-romance film, it is a fantasy film.
Everyone thinks that the setting of "Parallel Cohabitation" is also good. At least you can't meet yourself when you go through it, so you can avoid some things.
Especially if you can't change so much that you won't even win the lottery.
Of course, what everyone discusses the most is the heroine, that is, the female loser Lei Xiaozhao in the 1.0 version. Everyone likes this 1.0 better.
Because many girls are substituted into it, and many people actually think that beautiful girls will indeed have a miserable life in reality.
In this regard, some people said: "You are overthinking. In this society, being beautiful itself is an advantage and a resource."
Then, there were discussions on the Internet. Off track again.
What should I say? ?
As long as the issue of men and women is involved, many people will definitely quarrel in the end.
Meng Yan also said to Lin Xing at this time: "Axing, fortunately you didn't let our movie promote the relationship between men and women, otherwise we might have been kidnapped."
"The traffic is delicious. After all, if there is traffic, there will be box office, but this is a double-edged sword. It is better for us to do our thing honestly. ”
Lin Xing waved his hand slightly and said: "And I feel that no matter from which aspect, our movie is not about the antagonism between men and women. In this society, it is not easy for women, and it is not easy for ordinary men, either. But This topic cannot be discussed anymore. Even in an environment where public opinion is extreme, if you talk about it, it will easily offend both sides..."
Speaking of this, Lin Xing paused and said: "So why do so many celebrities now only use Weibo as advertising accounts? Because the current public opinion is conservative, many people think why there is no internal entertainment for live people, but when People who live in domestic entertainment can easily get their accounts canceled if they are not careful."
Meng Yan nodded lightly: "Then, Ah Xing, you should also pay attention... ..."
"I'm fine."
Lin Xing waved his hand and said: "I just do things. Just because I am a human being does not mean that I can be unscrupulous. I am not that stupid."< br>
“Judging from the current data from all parties, the attendance rate on the first day is actually not very ideal. Ah Xing, you must be mentally prepared.”
Meng Yan said: "I'm afraid there will be a gap in the box office tomorrow."
Lin Xing nodded lightly: "Don't worry, I am mentally prepared."
At this time, although the box office has not yet It was updated in real time, but many media have already begun to badmouth it.
"I think this "Parallel Living" will be Lin Xing's Waterloo, because I just went to a theater and the attendance was terrible."
"Yeah, the box office was all over the place. There’s an upside down situation, and it looks like “Parallel Living” will be released tomorrow.”
"That's right, it's better to give this series of films to some old films. I think it's better to give them to old films than to "Parallel Living"."
......
More and more The media's bad-mouthing is actually because the data is really right in front of them.
The next day, November 12, the first-day box office of "Parallel Cohabitation" was officially released.
The box office on the first day was 21 million.
This box office made many people start to complain.
“Hahahaha, I don’t think Lin Xing can brag about it?? The box office on the first day was only 21 million???”
“To be honest, I have thought about "Parallel Cohabitation" The box office on the first day would be bad, but I didn’t expect it to be so bad. This series of movies 30% of the time, the box office on the first day was only 21 million? ?"
"This reputation has also collapsed. To be honest, I really think that it is impossible for "Parallel Living" to exceed 100 million." br>
……
After the box office of "Parallel Living" came out on the first day, many people felt that the movie was a hit.
At this time, Lao Zhong wrote a film review about "Parallel Cohabitation".
She had been busy so she didn’t watch the movie, so she watched it on Double Eleven when she had nothing to do.
After she finished posting the movie review, she was really happy to see the news online that "Parallel Cohabitation" was a hit.
"No, "Parallel Cohabitation" was released on a weekday, and it took in 21 million on the first day when the market was so cold. Do you care about this?"
Lao Zhong directly posted another Weibo post: "Can you guys be a little more rational? It's not that the movie didn't break 3 billion or it just flopped."
