Chapter 61: Chasing after me and scolding? How much hatred?
The fifth day of the release of "Happy Ghost".
Lin Zheng got up early.
Draw cards, wash up, boxing, "Grappling", "Crow Flying on a Plane", and eat.
After finishing what he should do, he turned on the computer as usual and opened the online theater.
"Today, the box office should be around 630,000."
Lin Zheng was thinking.
Ever since I learned about box office fraud.
He began to pay attention to the growth rate of box office, summarized the rules, and calculated it himself.
In the past two days, almost every time there was a big difference.
This is an ironclad fact.
He also had to believe that these box office sales might have been made by Li Changsheng and the others.
Enter the online cinema author backstage.
As the page refreshed, Lin Zheng was suddenly stunned.
Today, the box office growth was somewhat beyond his expectations.
【"Happy Ghost"
Online Cinema 3 (now showing), total box office - 792699
The day’s box office——164,739 yuan.]
"Huh? Why is it so much higher than expected?"
Looking at the numbers in front of him, Lin Zheng couldn't help but be stunned: "Have you tested the water yet?"
Lin Zheng glanced at the date in the lower right corner of the computer. It was only August 3rd, less than five days after it was released, and it had not yet reached the recommended time.
"Or were they afraid that I would find out about the box office fraud, so they changed the method?"
He refreshed it several times and finally confirmed that he had read it correctly.
Although he was confused, Lin Zheng didn't think much about it.
Then I clicked on the movie details interface of "Happy Ghost" and opened the comment area.
Then, click to sort by publication date.
Immediately, a series of fresh comments came into view.
This time, he only glanced at it and was immediately stunned.
It is different from the previous comments where ten out of ten sentences were nonsense.
Today, these new comments in the comment area... seem to be written by normal people!
"Unexpectedly, it is indeed a good movie. Of course, it would be better if the protagonist was not a ghost, but a... in short, some other being with special abilities.
Although I had fun watching it, I kept thinking that I was watching a ghost movie, which made me feel a little uneasy."
"I came here to watch the movie after watching the memes. Compared with the movies that have been released recently, this movie is quite good. Why bother to beat the box office? Although the ghost is indeed a bit scary."
"If Happy Ghost hadn't said he was a ghost, I never would have thought that it turned out to be a ghost."
"For the first time, I feel that ghosts are not so scary, but I am still quite scared. Can the director not make a ghost movie next time? I'm afraid this kind of thing is not suitable as a publicity stunt, right?"
"It's much better than that movie "Love Is Here", those popular stars only make bad movies!"
"@Be calm, hahahaha, the administrator actually left a negative review in the movie review area. Look at the time. You haven't watched it at that time, right? If you don't read it, you will give a negative review. If you are a film critic, I will criticize you in the group!"
"The movie is quite good, but it just doesn't stand up to scrutiny. How can a ghost be so kind? Although it was fun to watch, I can't accept this setting and give it one star."
"This movie is too absurd. Doesn't this kind of thing insult people's IQ? One-star negative review!"
…
Lin Zheng looked at these comments, his lips widened involuntarily, and a surprised smile appeared on his face.
Although many of the extra reviews are one-star negative reviews.
But at this time, he felt that these were genuine one-star differences.
I don’t know how many times better it looks than those junk reviews from the internet!
Lin Zheng continued to scroll down the page and found that there were many times more normal comments than before.
You can see one almost every third.
Although I don't understand what is going on, the situation in front of me is undoubtedly foreshadowing.
His movies seem to have finally gained a group of real audiences who don’t know where they came from!
"I'll just say there's nothing wrong with my movie!"
Lin Zheng clenched his fists excitedly, his face turning slightly red due to excitement.
Although it's fake and real, it's all box office.
But these real box office results will undoubtedly make him more gratified.
and.
Although these extra negative reviews suddenly raised the overall movie's rating to 6.9.
But the negative reviews are basically about the presence of ghosts in the movie.
It can be seen that they are still very satisfied with the overall quality of the movie.
At least Lin Zheng looked through the extra comments and didn't see any negative comments from anyone.
This also shows that the transformation route of supernatural comedies like "Happy Ghost" seems to be feasible.
He read the comments and then clicked into the author area.
One refresh.
Good guy, it only lasted about ten minutes, and it added hundreds of box office receipts!
And, what’s even more miraculous is.
The box office sales of the three movies "Gonjiam", "Ghost Story" and "Brian" have not seen any movement for a long time.
There has also been a lot of growth!
He immediately clicked into the comment section of "Kon Chi Rock", which had the largest box office growth.
I found that there were indeed more than a dozen fresh and painstaking negative reviews inside.
All are kind greetings.
It's even better than the previous comments.
It fully demonstrates the audience of these new comments, their better literary literacy, and their inner anger and fear.
But looking at these comments, Lin Zheng not only didn't feel angry, but actually felt even happier.
"This... new films boost the sales of old films. This is the great god effect, the famous director effect!
Let me just say, how could it be possible that all the box office sales of my "Happy Ghost" were gross?"
Only real viewers thought the movie was pretty good after watching "Happy Ghost".
Only then did I turn around to look at his previous works as a director.
If all the box office tickets were paid, then such a thing would never happen.
The navy doesn't have that much free time.
"It seems that Captain Li and the others may have indeed brushed it off, but they should have brushed it off just a little bit.
If you think about it, if the box office of 2 million is really achieved, wouldn't it be a huge loss?"
Lin Zheng's mood suddenly became better: "And it hasn't been tested yet. With the current box office performance, when it is recommended, the effect will definitely not be bad!
If we can test the waters and promote promotion, maybe the box office can even reach five or six million!"
He smiled and clicked on the long-lost scarf.
I searched for "Happy Ghost" again and planned to see if there were any changes on the scarf.
The search results appeared, and finally they were no longer all posts by trolls.
Instead, there was a series of various "magical events" that occurred around "boosting the box office of "Happy Ghost"".
Watching various ancient emperors, future leaders, alien presidents, and even freshly cut hemorrhoids, using the scarves to boost the box office of "Happy Ghost".
Lin Zhengxian had a black question mark on his face.
But then, he started laughing.
As a surfing expert, he naturally knows how helpful a popular meme can be to a work.
In the past life on earth, there were countless old movies and TV series.
Just because of an inexplicable plot, he regained his second youth.
It can be seen that the extra box office revenue of "Happy Ghost" is absolutely inseparable from these "precious items" that are used to buy tickets for oneself on the scarf.
He continued to scroll down with a smile.
Suddenly I came across a very popular article.
"Critical review of "Happy Ghost": This director is obviously very capable, but he only makes ghost movies! Is this a distortion of human nature or a loss of morality?"
"I also have a movie review? I finally have a movie review!"
Lin Zheng was happy at first, but then he became a little confused: "The distortion of human nature and the loss of morality? Are you praising me or scolding me?"
He observed it carefully with curiosity.
The article was published at one o'clock in the morning last night.
It already has more than 900 likes, 300 comments, and more than 200 retweets.
The data is pretty good.
But the real point is that the person who posted this article was actually an acquaintance!
The nickname is "Be calm".
Just the hardcore fan who went from "Kon Chi Rock" to "Happy Ghost" and left negative reviews.
Looking at this name, Lin Zheng's face immediately darkened.
"What the hell, it's not enough to scold him in the comment section, but he also has to go to the scarf to write a movie review to scold him? How much hatred and resentment are there?"
