Not that this movie is great.

But as a commercial film, and as the last part of a series of movies, all story lines have been concluded, and the plot rhythm and pictures are impeccable, at least in the eyes of most viewers.

"Really?" Hu Lai was still a little nervous.

"Really!" Liang Tian turned around from the passenger seat and said to Hu Lai: "Director Hu, I think this one is even better than the last one. There was a section in the middle of the last one that felt a bit slow. I'm watching the disc at home. During the movie, when I have free time during the movie, I will fast forward and watch it, and then return to the original speed at the end.”

She really likes the "Ghost Valley" series, both the novel and the movie.

She even bought the DVDs of the TV series shot in Xiangjiang that disrupted the plot.

This was before she joined North-South Culture.

Now she can take advantage of her job to see the premiere, and Liang Tian is still very excited.

"Director Hu, please relax. Trust me, when you wake up tomorrow, you will see the praise for you in the newspapers!"

"That's right." Liu Piaopiao also echoed from the side: "Director Hu, you really don't have to worry."

They all understand that Hu Lai is nervous, but they also hope that Hu Lai can be more confident.

His work is really good.

"I'll try my best!" Hu Lai was already a little embarrassed by the praise.

With so many people saying nice things in his ears, no matter how low his mood is, it can cheer him up.

"Then I can prepare for the rest of the work with peace of mind." Hu Lai took a deep breath, his eyes full of ambition and imagination for the future.

If he can complete a "Ghost Valley" series, he is not afraid of another "Quest for the Sword".

Duan Jiajia looked at Hu Lai's appearance and knew that he was thinking about it now, so he couldn't help but smile knowingly.

Facts have proved that Liang Tian was right at all.

"Ghost Valley 5" was mentioned in the entertainment pages of newspapers the next day, and more than half of the entertainment pages of Shanghai Daily reported on this movie.

This is also reciprocating a favor.

Because North-South Culture has the relationship with the North-South Forum, it has a good relationship with several reporters and editors in charge of the entertainment section of major newspapers in Shanghai.

After all, people also want the latest entertainment news. The content in the forum comes from all over the world, but it is much faster than them.

If there is any major news, the forum administrator on night duty, that is, the responsible moderator, will contact several familiar reporters and tell them the matter.

You can also catch up on the next day’s news.

Because of this relationship, reporters and editors from several entertainment pages in Shanghai received a lot of bonuses.

Therefore, as long as there is news about North-South culture and North-South film and television, entertainment reporters from several newspapers will take care of it.

In addition to newspapers in Shanghai that have good relations with them, newspapers in other places also affirmed the film.

He also said that in this movie, not only Hu Lai has made progress as a director, but Liu Piaopiao has also made progress.

The other characters in the movie all performed very well, and together they completed a very good work, which is the best gift at the end of the first year of the new century.

These words made Hu Lai embarrassed to read the newspaper.

"Ghost Valley" has a previous foundation, so everyone thinks that the box office will not be too bad.

However, after receiving the statistical data on the third day, Duan Jiajia and others were surprised.

This is not a time when computer systems of later generations can calculate the box office results on the spot.

In some places farther away, tickets are printed and sold in advance.

Counting box office is all about counting ticket stubs.

The data could be sorted out and delivered to Duan Jiajia and others on the third day, which was considered highly efficient.

"How many? Is the data calculated wrong?" Not to mention Hu Lai, even Duan Jiajia couldn't believe it.

This was in 2000, and the number of movie screens nationwide did not exceed .

It’s not the number of cinemas, it’s the number of screens in cinemas.

Under this scale, a movie can exceed 10 million in the period from release to release, which is not bad for a movie.

The movie that broke the Chinese record this year was "Life and Death", with a box office of 1.2 million.

But this is definitely a minority among the minority.

And because this movie is the main theme, it has received strong support from theaters.

At this time, there was no large influx of private capital into the theaters on the market, and the development of theater chains would not begin reforming until 2001.

The second and third places are 33 million and 30 million respectively.

below this amount.

The first-day box office of "Ghost Valley 5" actually reached million.

One million!

That’s the amount that many movies can achieve after only one week of release.

"Ghost Valley 5" already had this amount one day after its release.

Duan Jiajia and others didn't dare to think about what would happen next.

Will it continue to rise, or will it only have the glory of the first day?

"Friends." Duan Jiajia stamped his feet, looked at the obvious amount of more than one million on the compiled data report, and said with some excitement: "We succeeded!"

When they first established the North-South culture, were Duan Jiajia and Chen Zhengnian really so confident?

no.

They also considered what they would do if they failed.

Duan Jiajia can continue to write books, and Chen Zhengnian also thinks that he can rely on his family connections to find a job in a publishing house or magazine and become his editor.

However, rather than retreating, they just wanted to succeed.

And Hu Lai.

In the past few years, all his energy has been focused on the filming of "Ghost Valley".

On average, one film a year.

For a director, this is already a very high output.

Directors of this era are actually not used to filming one film after another without any breaks.

When shooting a movie, there is a lot of preparatory work.

Script, storyboard, crew integration, investment...

Even if the director doesn't have to take care of everything, there is still a lot of preparatory work that needs to be done.

Hu Lai has been dizzy with work these past few years.

There were times when I felt that I was too tired to keep outputting like this.

I am also afraid that I will be trapped in a circle and cannot see the outside world.

After all, there have been many excellent works in the industry in recent years.

Some of the directors Hu Lai had some connections with in the past have continued to remain unknown, while others have soared into the sky thanks to their works.

And those scripts did not appear in front of Hu Lai.

He pushed it just for the "Ghost Valley" series.

Now, the "Ghost Valley" series is over, and he has succeeded!

"We succeeded!" Chen Zhengnian's tone was a little incredulous.

As long as the subsequent box office of "Ghost Valley 5" can continue to rise so steadily.

Chen Zhengnian never thought it would take many days. As long as he could maintain such results in the first three days, it would ensure that North-South Film and Television and North-South Culture would completely gain a foothold in this industry.

What Hua Song, what Wei Tang.

North-South Film and Television is North-South Film and Television.

They have their own scenery and achievements!
