C665 The Difference
In another city, Xu Haiyan was enjoying another round of bootlicking from her subordinates.
This time, on the day of her movie premiere, the box office beat everyone else. The result of more than 35 million was simply overwhelming.
The Doomsday Legend that she previously viewed as a great enemy was simply not a match for her. Such a result made even Xu Haiyan feel pleasantly surprised.
"Ms Xu. We have earned a lot this time. The box office is going to explode!"
"Yeah, it's too beautiful. The box office results for the first day of over 30 million are unprecedented in history!"
"This is a result that we can only obtain under Ms Xu's wise leadership!"
"Ms Xu is still the wisest!"
"I think the Doomsday Legend crew is going to cry themselves to death in the toilet. Haha, just over 20 million is not our match at all."
"Hahaha!"
The subordinates were laughing happily. Xu Haiyan also laughed silently for a while before asking one of the subordinates in a low voice. "What you did previously must be kept a secret and must not be leaked out."
"Don't worry Ms Xu, I have already arranged everything. Even if there are people who are suspicious, it is fine. Anyway, the statistics of the box office are all real." The subordinate replied proudly.
"Alright, then everyone will not be able to return until they are drunk. Cheers!" Xu Haiyan raised her wine glass and stood up to indicate to them.
"Cheers!"
On her side, a group of people were celebrating and the Internet was not calm either.
After the first day of screening, from the second day onwards, the viewers who had watched the Sky Castle movie began to post complaints online.
Things began to slowly ferment. From the beginning, it was scattered and scattered, but very soon, it became the hot topic of public opinion.
"Have any of you seen the Sky Castle like me? Can you tell me what it feels like to watch it?" Someone asked on the Internet.
"F * ck, this is a lousy movie. Whoever watches it will regret it. I'm f * cking blind!"
"My heart aches for that 160 yuan. It's like feeding a dog. And he even gave me a pile of dog sh * t!"
"Upstairs are right. This movie is dog sh * t. It should be said that dog sh * t is worse than dog sh * t. There's no more f * cking trash than this!"
"Are you for real? I was just about to go and watch it today."
"It's better not to watch it. The Doomsday Legend is ten thousand times better than this movie. The ticket price is even cheaper. I advise you to go and watch the Doomsday Legend."
Lin Fan's previous doubts had now been answered. The audience's aesthetics were still very normal. No one felt that Sky Castle was a good movie.
Now, everyone on the Internet hated this movie. It was just like a rat crossing the street.
There were even some people who went straight to the movie's official website to leave messages and curse, all kinds of sweet smells coming out of their mouths.
Very quickly, the public opinion about Sky Castle being a lousy movie became the headlines. The popularity was so high that it couldn't be lowered even if they wanted to.
Normally, this kind of headlines would definitely be what everyone wanted. But now, it was different. The headlines of Sky Castle were scolded by others.
Xu Haiyan's banquet was not over yet. Her assistant looked at her phone and immediately reported the situation in a panic.
"Ms Xu, something bad happened. Now, the Internet has scolded us badly, and we are all in the headlines!"
"What? We got such a good box office and we got scolded? Is there someone who maliciously bought Internet trolls to mess with us? Ah?" His subordinates said in puzzlement.
Xu Haiyan took the phone and quickly looked at it. She snorted coldly," If you scold me, then scold me. Anyway, the truth of the box office is right in front of us. It's useless to scold me! "
She knew that this kind of public opinion would definitely have a negative impact on the movie's reputation. However, the netizens were talking about something. Whether the movie she shot was good or not, no one knew better than Xu Haiyan herself.
So now that things had come to this, she did not intend to refute anything. In any case, people were like this now. With traffic and public opinion, it meant that it could be changed.
Whether it was good public opinion or bad public opinion, it did not matter if it was good public opinion or bad public opinion. Actually, the effect was the same. It would always attract more people's curiosity and then go to the cinema to verify it. Whether it was a lousy movie or not.
At that time, they would still have to contribute movie tickets to Xu Haiyan. So in Xu Haiyan's view, as long as she earned money, it would be fine. As for the good and bad reputation of the movie, could it be eaten?
"Ms Xu, I think it's better to deal with the current public opinion. We can't just be scolded and not speak."
"That's right, Ms Xu. If we don't do something about it, wouldn't that make the people who are scolding us even more arrogant?"
Xu Haiyan thought for a while and nodded her head. "Alright, then say something on the Internet."
So she took out her phone and took a photo of the gathering.
She uploaded it on Weibo and posted: On the first day, the box office results were over 35 million, breaking the historical record. Facts speak louder than words. There will always be people watching good movies. Let's have a dinner party to celebrate...
After posting this Weibo post, the netizens saw it and immediately caused a huge commotion.
Especially those who had watched the movie. They felt like their lungs were about to explode from anger.
It was clearly a huge lousy movie, yet they were still quibbling. This was simply lying through their teeth.
And some people who understood could tell that there was something fishy about this.
"Something's not quite right. This Sky Castle is so lousy, why is the box office so high?"
"Yeah, I've long felt that something was wrong. Could it be that there's something fishy going on here?"
"No way. The box office numbers are all calculated by the third-party. There can't be any fake ones."
"Then it's even more confusing. The box office of a movie as beautiful as Doomsday Legend is only slightly over 20 million. Why is Sky Castle able to obtain over 35 million box office earnings on the first day?"
"Could it be that I didn't understand that this is actually a good movie?"
"Upstairs, you don't have to doubt yourself. This movie is undoubtedly a super crappy movie!"
From the start of the scolding, to now, the netizens began to gradually question the authenticity of Xu Haiyan's movie box office.
Netizens with connections and abilities quickly dug out the statistical data from the hospital lines. After careful calculations, they discovered that the box office was indeed real. There were no falsifications, and it was not that the data was wrong.
This result made many people confused. Just like Lin Fan, they were deeply suspicious. It was clearly a lousy movie, but how did the box office go up?
There were even people who said, the domestic movie market was already incurable.
Good movies couldn't get a box office, but bad movies were popular.
Although the reputation was already bad, it just so happened that they knew how to do it. Some people went to buy it, but there was nothing they could say.
Among the countless doubts and doubts, the professional movie review website, dou Zi website, also opened up a channel for evaluating the two movies.
As expected, the results given by the netizens on the rating could still be compared to the actual situation.
The Doomsday Legend had 8: 9 points, sky Castle had 4: 5 points, which was almost double the gap.
