So in the third week, the number of screening screens for "Color Is Empty" reached 648. In the end, the number of moviegoers in the third week (June 30 to July 6) surged again. This campus movie

Comedy continues to overwhelm "Pearl Harbor," which has 318.1 million viewers in a single week, the newly released comedy "The Master", which has 376,000 viewers, and Warner Bros.' latest summer animated film,

"Cats and Dogs", which had 249,000 moviegoers, topped the Korean movie box office rankings this week with 1,268,100 moviegoers. The total number of moviegoers has climbed to 1,981,700...

What does this number mean? It means that "Color is Empty" became the sixth most watched movie in Korean movie history (including American movies) in just three weeks.

In addition to Li Xiaole's expectation, this result completely shocked the leading actors Ha Ji Won, Jo Hyun Jae, and even Kim Jong Min, who has never been slandered by fans, and his online fans exploded from 21,000 to 630,000. Kim Jong Min himself is stupid every day

He browsed his fan website blankly, watching the numbers keep rising. He was completely addicted to this boring activity, and he had never been so happy in his life.

Reporters from South Korea's three major TV stations have also begun to smell the news about this bizarre "Seku" effect. In fact, SBS began to pay attention to this movie as early as the first week's box office rankings were released.

It was mentioned in the entertainment news that the movie was labeled as a "dark horse"; and as "Color is Empty" won the weekly box office championship in the second week and won the championship in the third week, young people all over South Korea were attracted by this movie.

It exploded.

Lee Young-pyo was lying on the bed in his room. He was bored and turned the channel with the remote control. He saw a trendy program "Fashion News" on SBS. A beautiful host wearing glasses was in front of a stall selling clothes.

Report.

"I'm at the entrance of Dongdaemun Market. Although it's not a weekend, it's like a shopping festival. It's very lively. These college students are at the clothing stalls, all rushing to buy the same style of clothing."

When the screen turned, I saw a group of college-looking girls in a clothing stall, competing to try on a shoulder-baring blue sweater.

The camera changes to a female student with big eyes holding a blue sweater. The female reporter asks: "Hello, are you here to buy this blue sweater?" The female student excitedly faces the camera.

Nodding his head, "Yes, yes, this dress is very beautiful and looks very classy."

The female reporter asked again: "Why are there so many people in the store? Why do you still come in to buy clothes? Can't you wait until tomorrow?"

Without thinking about it, the girl answered strangely: "I don't know, anyway, everyone is buying this kind of clothes. They are all over the street. My boyfriend also wants me to buy them. It seems to be the heroine in some movie."

The costumes are indeed very beautiful." After saying that, he asked the reporter strangely: "Have you never seen that movie? It seems to be called "Color is Empty"."

The program director cut the scene back to the show, and the host said: "Let's listen to the opinions of fashion experts about this blue sweater that is popular in Seoul."

Sitting next to the host was the fashion designer whose famous brand was Quan Xiangfeng. He raised his gold-rimmed glasses angrily and sighed helplessly:

"I really don't understand the tastes of today's young people. This Eddie brand blue sweater is an old style from 1998 and has long been out of fashion. Moreover, the actress wore a Dongdaemun replica in the movie. I can't help it.

Understand why so many people like this dress...this is simply a serious setback for the Korean fashion industry."

The camera turned to a female model with curly hair on the opposite side. The model also frowned and said: "I agree with Teacher Quan. I think young people in Seoul should watch more fashion exhibitions and not cheap movies, so as not to be misled.

Appreciation of clothing.”

Of course, SBS is not advertising "Color Is Empty", it is just reporting on a clothing craze that has arisen in Seoul in the past two weeks. This is the famous "Eunhyo's Blue Knitted Sweater" phenomenon, which has led to the streets of Seoul and

On university campuses, there is a serious strange phenomenon of women wearing matching shirts.

Li Rongpyo read the report in rapt attention. He was stunned for a few seconds. He suddenly came back to his senses and took out his mobile phone to call Jiang Cangdong: "Cripple, come up quickly and take the report that Lei Ting sent during this time... What? That's it.

Give me that USB flash drive. Where the hell am I going to find it now? Send me another copy from Lei Ting, immediately, immediately!"

Ten minutes later, Jiang Cangdong trotted up with a USB flash drive and handed it to Li Ronghao. Li Ronghao opened the computer in the bedroom and connected the USB flash drive. When he looked at the data, he was stunned, then slowly opened his mouth and turned his head.

Jiang Cangdong asked infatuatedly: "Are you sure Lei Ting didn't add two zeros?"

"Absolutely not, don't you understand that girl Lei Ting?" Jiang Cangdong promised, wiping the sweat from his forehead. Recently, they were all busy filming a Category 4 film. How could they have time to care about the film market? Lei Ting's report came

, Lee Young-pyo didn’t even bother to read it at the time and asked him to delete it.

Li Rongyu turned to the channel and saw another legal program on the KBS channel. There was a professor with a frown on his face and a Mediterranean hairstyle, speaking righteously:

"This student movie is really too bad. It was used illegally for publicity. I just confirmed that the previous 7 minutes of ********* were spread by someone with deliberate intentions. This is a violation of South Korea's Internet Advertising Law. The prosecutor's office should

Supervise this kind of behavior well... A vulgar and absurd story like "Color is Empty" has become sixth in Korean film history. This is a shame for Korean films."

"What is going on? Are Li Xiaole's movies really watched by so many people?" Li Ronghao suddenly felt that his brain cells were not enough, he touched his forehead and looked at Jiang Cangdong blankly and asked.

"It should be so. Xijie's manager Cao called me before. He said that he had seen our film during the green light review. If he had not signed other films at that time, he would have cooperated with us...

..." Jiang Cangdong was worried that his words would make Li Rongpyo unhappy, so he explained at a very slow speed: "I heard his tone seemed very annoyed at the time, and thought it was a joke. Now that I think about it, what Manager Cao said should be "Color is Empty"

"

Li Ronghao lowered his head and was silent for a long time. After a while, he lowered his head and asked in a complicated tone: "Cripple... tell me, based on the results of "Color is Empty", how much profit will we make?"

Jiang Cangdong calculated silently in his mind and answered with ecstasy in his eyes: "If we calculate it based on 00,000 moviegoers, the company can get a profit of 1.92 billion."

"Almost 100 million?" Li Ronghao suddenly jumped off the bed, howled excitedly, roared Li Zhenxian's "Wow" without emotion, swung his butt and danced around the room. Jiang Cangdong smiled with his mouth open.

It doesn't matter if I don't laugh, I can only hold it in with all my strength.

Li Rongpyo was halfway through twisting his butt when he suddenly remembered something and sat back on the bed with a painful look on his face, then suddenly smiled bitterly again.

"Boss, what's wrong?" Jiang Cangdong was thinking about what happened to the boss who was always out of control. Why was he still a little unhappy when he heard that the company had made three years' profit all of a sudden? Isn't that too little?

"It's nothing... you go and do your work first." Li Ronghao waved without energy and asked Jiang Cangdong to close the door from the outside. He fell down on the sheets, knocked hard on the bed board with his fist, and twisted on the bed.

He groaned in pain: "This one who killed a thousand cuts...Li Xiaole...Lei Ting...all of them were fucking gone at once, and I even took a shitty DVD..."

Amid the uproar from the outside world, the Publicity Committee, one of the nine major committees of the Film Promotion Association, after a fierce debate internally, rejected the information about the director of "Color Is Empty" that was supposed to be published on the website. The reason was that

,According to internal investigation, there were some mistakes in the review of student films this time...

According to regulations, only current students from twelve universities in Seoul, including Dankook University, can apply for student-supported films. However, although this time the applicant Ha Ji-won is nominally one of the producers, he is actually just an actor.

, she had no involvement from the script to the director, and the real producer was Li Xiaole, a dropout from Danguo. This means that "Color is Empty" strictly speaking does not meet the qualifications of a student film.

However, the Film Industry Association knew clearly that they had discovered an oversight, but none of the committee members came forward to say that "Color Is Empty" would be disqualified. The reason was naturally self-evident. In the end, the committee decided that everything should continue as usual, but Li Xiaole must not be promoted.

.

However, the more silent the Film Club wanted to maintain enough mystery, the more curious the outside world became. Soon the entertainment program of MBC TV station exposed Li Xiaole's information, which shocked the industry again. A ten-year-old who was dropped out of school by Dan Guo

A nine-year-old Chinese student studying abroad.

When those people from the headhunting company saw Li Xiaole's photo, they thought there must be a mistake in the information. A cowardly-looking pretty boy directed a movie with 00,000 viewers?

This is absolutely impossible...

After some hard thinking, the headhunters used a list to outline Li Xiaole's relationship network. They all seemed to have come to the same conclusion. The main reason for the success of "Color Is Empty" was to be attributed to two people, one.

It's the mysterious American screenwriter H, the other one is Jin Nan, the producer of the Film Festival, and the 19-year-old Chinese is probably just a puppet.

Only in this way can things be considered reasonable.

Of course, Li Xiaole himself does not care about this argument. In any case, the Chinese name Li Xiaole is still included in the list of Korean film history. Regardless of whether he has real talent or not, 00,000 students watched the movie to support the film. In itself,
