Zhang Yimou is a veteran who has been working in the film industry for many years.
He has a deep understanding of how to get audiences to go to the cinema and buy tickets.
Most audiences actually do not have a clear goal before deciding to go to the movies. As long as they can remember and have a point that attracts them, they will spend money to buy tickets.
These audiences will appear in large numbers during the period when a movie starts to be released, because if they have more time, they will be affected by other people’s evaluations.
The highest box office and the largest number of viewers of a movie are a few days after its release.
Most of the audiences who went to the cinema to watch movies during this period did not care about the quality at all, but only cared about whether there were points that attracted them and whether there were familiar names.
So Zhang Yimou held this premiere to let potential audiences who planned to watch movies during this period know that there was such a movie.
It left them with the impression of Sino-foreign co-production, big production, Hollywood, and luxurious lineup.
In addition, he prepared enough red envelopes, and the reporters who watched the premiere would not find fault with his movie.
At that time, they would choose some good things to say and brush aside the shortcomings.
In this way, both popularity and reputation are achieved.
In the days before the National Day when the box office was at its highest, who could compete with him for the box office?
He sat in the front row and watched his masterpiece, and in his heart he had already put an end to the competition for the National Day.
What could Cao An use to compete with him? He really thought he was the same person.
Since he and Cao An were scheduled for the National Day at the same time, he could always hear people comparing the two and making comparative analyses.
And they always praised Cao An.
This made Zhang Yimou very angry.
Compared with himself, who is Cao An? Is he worthy?
At this time, he had already begun to imagine that he would win the box office champion of the National Day and trample Cao An under his feet.
By then, not only would the domestic box office be high, but good news would also come from abroad.
He would become an internationally renowned director and the first Chinese director.
In his fantasy, the movie was quickly finished.
The lights came on, and he and several main creators came to the stage to answer reporters’ questions.
Holding red envelopes in hand and being merciful in his mouth.
The reporters who attended the event were not rookies. After asking some polite questions, the premiere of “The Great Wall” ended successfully.
The next day, September 30th.
Major media outlets released news about the premiere of “The Great Wall” last night.
At a glance, almost all of them praised the premiere, saying that Zhang Yimou showed the style of a great country.
Reports on the content of the movie were also mostly praise.
“It’s a movie that can rival Hollywood, it’s exciting and satisfying, and it met my expectations before watching the movie!”
“A combination of Chinese and Western cultures, a work of world unity, fighting against Taotie is really exciting!”
“The moon in Qin and the pass in Han, the people of the Long March have not returned. “The Great Wall” perfectly shows the determination of mankind to protect their homeland.”
“Story: ups and downs, rhythm: no boring moments throughout, art: Director Zhang’s aesthetics is reassuring.”
“It’s worthy of being a national master’s movie, the special effects are real and grand, and I was shocked when Taotie appeared.”
“Finally, I can see a magical film that belongs to our culture on the big screen!”
The media’s praise instantly raised the audience’s expectations for “The Great Wall”.
This can be seen very intuitively from the pre-sale and the theater’s screening schedule.
“The Great Wall”, screening share: 65%, pre-sale box office: 124 million.
“The Invisible Guardian”, screening share: 30%, pre-sale box office: 41.97 million.
Before the movie was released, the box office of The Great Wall had already exceeded 100 million yuan.
It directly broke the pre-sale box office record of domestic movies.
Seeing the momentum of The Great Wall, people who are familiar with Cao An are a little worried.
They called him to comfort him, telling him not to worry and believe that things will get better later.
Cao An was not frightened by Zhang Yimou’s huge momentum, but was very confident in himself.
With the production model of The Great Wall, it is hard not to think that it will be a bad movie.
There is just one thing that Cao An is a little dissatisfied with.
That is, Zhang Yimou relied on his relationship in the film and television industry and his popularity among the public to directly market outside the movie.
This made Cao An ashamed, and it was completely an evil trick.
…
With the expectation of everyone, September is about to end and October is about to come.
The big holiday of the whole year is about to begin.
Many viewers came to the theater around 11:30 to watch the midnight show of the movie.
In addition to ordinary audiences, there were also some stars among them.
But they all wore masks to cover themselves up.
In the Imperial City Cinema.
Two tall women gathered together to chat, both wearing masks, so outsiders couldn’t tell who they were.
“Yuanyuan, I see that you rank high online. If CaoDirector An invites you, will you go?”
Wang Luodan asked Gao Yuanyuan.
“Your ranking is not low either, if you are invited, will you go?”
“Of course I will go, Cao An, although he has been in the industry for a short time, each of his works has a good reputation and he is very good at promoting people.”
Wang Luodan answered directly: “Look at those actresses who played Cao An’s dramas, is there any one who is not popular?”
Gao Yuanyuan thought about it and agreed, but she did not answer directly: “Let’s watch the movie and talk about it after watching it. ”
Her purpose of coming this time was to see how Cao An’s movie was. If it was still as good as before, she would accept Cao An’s invitation.
She had already heard from other channels that actresses like Liu Yifei who had a good relationship with Cao An would not star in his new drama.
And Cao An would really invite actors based on the ranking on the Internet, so the probability of her being invited was very high.
There were quite a few actors who had the same idea as her.
As long as they were free, they bought tickets for the midnight show today to watch Cao An’s movie.
As for Zhang Yimou, they had already I saw it at the premiere.
How should I put it, it was just so-so.
So they all wanted to see how good Cao An was this time.
The clock struck midnight.
“The Invisible Guardian” was officially released.
The Golden Dragon Logo, the National Directors Competition, and the icons of Fanxing Film and Television lit up one after another.
Then the words “Director Cao An’s Work” appeared, and the film officially began.
A huge cruise ship was sailing on the sea. A man in a suit came to the bow and fell into memories while looking at the dock not far away.
Through memories, the audience knew the identity of the protagonist, Xiao Tu.
The real streets and the right clothes instantly bring people back to that turbulent time.
The pace in the early stage was very fast. Xiao Tu returned to China, visited his teacher, cracked the teacher’s code, and became an undercover agent.
Then he became a “traitor” and lurked in the Muto Mansion.
Xiao Tu completed a mission thrillingly and met Muto Junko.
Gao Yuanyuan and other viewers praised Cao An’s aesthetics in their hearts.
In less than ten minutes, two female characters appeared. Fang Min and Muto Junjin were both beautiful.
People have to sigh that Cao An is really too I can take photos of beauties.
Gao Yuanyuan thought about what a beautiful scene she would be if she starred in Cao An’s play.
But before anyone could finish admiring Junko Muto’s pure, lovely and beautiful appearance, the first climax came.
Muto Zhixiong took Xiao Tu to find his teacher Fang Hanzhou, which was also his last test for Xiao Tu.
Watching Fang Hanzhou resolutely go to his death to save Xiao Tu.
Everyone realized that the background of the movie was that turbulent time, and the cruel environment had just shown its fangs.
The ups and downs of the plot made the audience have no time to appreciate handsome men and beautiful women.
