Disaster Artist

In the second week of July, the world is in the spotlight.

The most anticipated commercial blockbuster "Dinosaur Planet" by Tianshan Pictures this summer is on the stage. The film is all filmed using computer motion capture technology, using actors to play anthropomorphic dinosaurs and interpreting the life of dinosaurs in the Ice Age. Preparations are underway. The stage attracted a lot of attention.

Because of the new shooting technology, the cost of film production remains high. The final official cost is 850 million, second only to "Pangu" and "Super Legion". After the series schedule was adjusted, it was chosen to appear two weeks after the "Super Power Legion".

The grand premiere of "Dinosaur Planet" attracted the attention of fans around the world, and then landed in 5,700 theaters. This number also surpassed the two direct competitors and became the movie with the most theaters this summer.

Without a doubt, this is the box office bomb of the week!

However, "Unfriend" appeared like a comet.

The premiere of "Dinosaur Planet" was on Friday, but the entire movie market from Monday to Thursday was dominated by "unfriend"—

It was released in 4,200 theaters around the world, nearly four times the number of previous screening venues in one go. It has truly entered the stage of large-scale public release, and the audience's reputation has also ushered in a second impact test.

407 million.

During the four working days from Monday to Thursday, "Unfriend" handed over a perfect answer sheet, sweeping the box office with great momentum!

What's even more incredible is that the cumulative box office has already made an irresistible impact on "Super Power Legion" and "Pangu", and the one billion box office is already within reach!

Incredible!

and! The sampling survey of the eight major theater chains has also ended, and the theater ratings have been officially released.

"A"!

For commercial films, an "A" rating is equivalent to a box office guarantee; for a thriller/horror film, an "A" rating is almost equal to a full score—

Because generally speaking, it is "B", "B-", or even lower.

In other words, following the media film critics and senior film fans, ordinary audiences also recognized the wonderfulness of "Unfriending", which did not disappoint.

There is no need for professional media forecasts, a box office storm has already arrived with the naked eye.

Now, unintentionally, "Unfriend" VS "Dinosaur Planet" is about to be staged.

Faced with such a phenomenon, how could the news media miss it?

Major newspapers, magazines, and major online media have already reported on it for the first time, and it is also a series of follow-up reports, paying close attention to the biggest hot spots this summer.

And then?

The eyes are also focused on the main creators of "unfriending". From being unknown to becoming popular overnight, the entire group also tasted the taste of attention.

Among them, Xia Yingjia who plays Liuli undoubtedly gets the most attention. After all, she is the core protagonist of the whole movie.

All of a sudden, countless interview invitations all flocked to Xia Yingjia. Naturally, the connection between movies and reality has also become the focus of major media.

Xia Yingjia's reply was also perfect, "I don't know."

Because she really doesn't know.

"I don't know anything." Xia Yingjia said, "When we were shooting the movie, there was no news, and the director also told us that the movie was completely fictional, so, I think, between the two things There shouldn't be any connection. Of course, that's just my personal opinion."

From the perspective of the "unfriend" side, they tried their best to clear the relationship, and it seemed that it had nothing to do with social news. Then, all the related posts of social news were deleted one after another, as if it had never happened.

How should this be explained?

Those who are sensible have already noticed the tricks. "It should be fake news promoted by the crew, so it is deleted now."

A small number of speculations are also very correct. "Deletion means fake news." Even if they didn't think of the crew, they had already left things behind.

However, there is another saying that gradually spreads out—

Maybe it was the murderer behind the "unfriend" who deleted the news? Whether it's a hacker or a ghost, maybe he didn't want to be discovered by everyone, so he kept deleting all traces, just like the end of the movie "Unfriending", disappearing out of thin air, leaving behind an unknown fear.

Creepy!

When such a thought invades the brain, it can't be stopped, and the shivering one after another stimulates more and more audiences to want to enter the cinema, trying to find the truth from "unfriending".

Even though countless netizens have been emphasizing, "This should be the propaganda method of the crew", but the propaganda effect has been achieved, and the whole momentum can no longer be stopped.

The more the discussion and the more debate, the more popular the movie will be, and a whole new wave has formed between them.

However, there are many popular people, such a law will never be wrong. In the midst of the rising noise, the name "Lu Qian" has once again entered the public's attention.

When "Unfriending" was just emerging, some people noticed the director's name, "Lu Qian", but this is the name of a complete newcomer who has never had any director experience; moreover, film directors and idol singers are really different Far too far, it is difficult to concentrate two identities in one person.

Naturally, no one associates Lu Qian with the "time management master" four months ago.

With the box office performance of "Unfriending" getting better and better, seven major theaters screened one after another, UU Reading www.uukanshu. Various topics of com movies also emerged in front of everyone—

"Yeah, so the director is a super handsome guy!"

"I can! Ah, ah, I can!"

"Kneeling and licking the director's appearance, is this really the director and not the actor?"

Before the traffic fans had time to enter the cinema to watch "Unfriend", they had already noticed the director's appearance and screamed.

But soon, netizens realized the problem. They searched for "Lu Qian", jumped out news pictures and photos, and then took it for granted that this should be the director. The hot topic four months ago has long been forgotten by netizens. However, after all, someone remembered it, and immediately discovered the anomaly.

"Wait, is this the master of time management? Not the director, right?"

At this time, netizens didn't think much about it, and they took it for granted that the film director and the idol singer were two people with the same name and surname, trying to correct their mistakes.

Here, there is a small problem-

When "Unfriending" attracted attention in the Dome Cinema, some media reporters had already caught the opportunity, and then when they landed on the detached theater line, the number of interview invitations increased significantly.

However, up to this point, the media is still habitually focusing on the actors. After all, they are the ones who stand in front of the screen to accept the baptism of the spotlight.

Of course, some media have also sent interview invitations to the director, but at this stage, "Unfriending" has not been completely popular, and the director's response to the interview invitation was not timely enough, so the reporters did not urge them again and again.

In other words, no authoritative media has published photos of the director of "Unfriending", and it is precisely because of this that netizens believe that it is just the same name and surname.

Then...the notorious gossip tabloid "Moon" appeared.
