In addition, the movie script written by Hiroto Akihara based on this case also gained a lot of traffic.
After the press conference, Hiroto Akihara ordered Asano Aiko to contact the advertising companies she had contacted before, and arrange to write soft articles as soon as possible.
In the following two days, there was a lot of publicity about the work "Memories of Murder" on the Internet and some small and medium-sized magazines.
In these soft articles, the sentence that the film is based on "adapted from real cases" is emphasized.
Under this wave of publicity, many people went to the theater one after another to buy movie tickets for this movie.
However, after a large number of people poured into the theater, they found that the movie had not been released, so they could only ask the ticket seller.
The ticket seller was also very helpless and could only give feedback to the theater manager.
After the latter learned of the relevant situation, they called the crew one after another, changed their previous attitude of indifference, and strongly demanded that the film be released.
As for the theaters that have already screened the movie, they have increased the number of screens and the amount of filming to maximize their profits.
For a time, "Memories of Murder" was showing in theaters all over Neon.
This makes "Memories of Murder" stand out among many movies at once!
By the end of the week, there were more than 200 cooperative theaters across the country, and more than 400 screens for direct release.This is completely the standard of a blockbuster movie!
As for the box office, it reached a full 12 billion yen!
At the same time as the box office soared, many film critics also wrote professional book reviews in newspapers and magazines.
The "Governor News" who has cooperated with Akihara Hiroto commented:
"As a crime-themed film, the film is quite masterful in its suspense setting and handling, and its gloomy and depressing atmosphere is quite a Hollywood blockbuster style.
It's hard to imagine that such a film is actually adapted from real themes.
Fortunately, with the help of Mr. Qiu Yuan, the real culprit was finally caught. "
"Film Weekly", which specializes in film reviews, also published a film review:
"Although everyone is trying to get closer to the truth, the truth is as erratic as the prisoner's shadow.
The police officers from the Metropolitan Police Department have always emphasized reasoning and analysis, and calmly investigate the case, but they have learned to beat and beat through repeated failures, and even beat the police of the local police station in Kanagawa.
Here, the "cat-and-mouse game" between the police and the gangsters is broken, and the police become the targets of molestation by criminals, which makes people feel deeply powerless and hopeless.
It is conceivable how powerless the police were in the Kanagawa serial murder case before. "
……
Under the public opinion, some people who were originally not interested in the murder case also began to cast their attention on it. After all, in the past two years, few movies have been praised by everyone.
Although the mainstream media unanimously praised it, some "public knowledge" still jumped out to speak out, thinking that this "Memories of Murder" is a movie based entirely on the pain of the victims.
Some people even claimed that all the box office should be donated to the families of the victims.
However, these criticisms did not arouse much splash, and were even ridiculed by some fans on the Internet.
After all, Hiroto Akihara said at the press conference that the purpose of making this movie is to make the public pay attention to this matter.
And from a practical point of view, Hiroto Akihara also helped the police arrest the suspect. Isn't this the best compensation for the victim's family?
Facing this great situation, Asano Aiko and Utsumi Takuto were very excited and started further publicity.
Under her active contact, Neihai Tuoren took the main actors and began to hold fan meeting tours across the country, and cooperated with major TV stations to frequently appear on programs for publicity.
Not only that, but the two male protagonists also went to the Kanagawa Police Station to be "honorary policemen" for a day, that is, standing on the road in police uniforms, just for publicity for the Metropolitan Police Department.
Although the schedule was very tiring, everyone in the crew felt a burst of excitement seeing the box office increasing day by day.
……
While the crew was happy, everyone in Dongying Pictures felt depressed, especially Gao Cun Houyi, who was in charge of the negotiation work before, subconsciously broke out in a cold sweat.
When negotiating the copyright of "Suspect X" with Hiroto Akihara before, he has always stood in the position of opposing Hiroto Akihara's request for a share of the box office.
He even persuaded the president and others to let Dong Ying Pictures join forces with other major film companies to issue a joint industry statement.
This made Hiroto Akihara unable to hand over the copyright to small and medium-sized film companies.
As for "Memories of Murder" this time, he is also not optimistic, and believes that the box office will definitely collapse.
In fact, he was planning to wait for Hiroto Akihara's film investment to fail before buying the film and television copyrights of "Suspect" and several other popular works at a low price.
But unexpectedly, Hiroto Akihara, an outsider in the film industry, actually wrote the script by himself and invested in a blockbuster movie!
Such a contrast left him speechless!
What made him even more embarrassed was that his president found himself again and made a request:
"Takamura, I ask you to contact Akihara Yuto immediately and get the movie copyright of "Suspect X", even if you give up 10% of the box office revenue!"
Gao Cunhou swallowed his saliva and could only agree.
However, he also knew in his heart that it is not so easy to obtain the copyright under the previous conditions when he can invest and shoot by himself!
Damn it, why is Akihara Yuto so lucky!
[304.3 Chapter Three Writers Are Lonely]
Two days later, Double Café in Chiyoda-ku, Tokyo.
"Qiuhara, what do you think of the conditions for the opening of Dongying Yinghua?"
After ordering coffee and sitting down, Aiko Asano looked at Hiroto Akihara and asked.
This morning, Dong Ying Pictures sent a high-level executive to propose more favorable conditions, which even included 10% of the box office share.
Akihara Hiroto thought for a while and replied, "Wait a little longer."
Seeing that he didn't agree or refuse, Aiko Asano asked curiously, "What's the reason?"
Hiroto Akihara replied: "Asano, Dongying Yinghua caused us a lot of trouble before. Of course we can't hand over the copyright to him so easily now.
And when the final box office of "Memories of Murder" is released, maybe there will be other more sincere big film companies coming to the door. "
In the past, the big film companies in the industry have been refusing to negotiate with me because I proposed a box office share that did not conform to the neon rules.
But now, Dongying Yinghua has jumped out on its own initiative and destroyed the "industry tacit agreement" with other big companies.
He didn't believe it anymore. Under the temptation of naked interests, other companies would not stand up.
