Who are you calling "little fresh meat"? I'm the king.

Chapter 135: Definitely Breaking 14 Million! ()

Shen Yan knew he was quite popular. After all, his Weibo followers already reached 400 million...

And he is very active.

Often share daily life with fans...

Including what I ate every day, the crew's filming progress... and even creative experience...

Sometimes I even quarrel with fans.

By the way, he never participates in gossip in the circle.

Unlike... another Weibo celebrity Lu Chuan, Lu Chuan was also a Weibo celebrity in his early days. He treated Weibo as a circle of friends. From Yan Po being hacked to Liu Ye having a child, all the secrets and gossips in the circle were reported by Lu Chuan on Weibo at the first time, and the credibility of the information was so high that it was definitely more reliable than those unprofessional entertainment reporters.

There is also a Honghuang who loves to reveal entertainment insider information. He first mentioned the incident between Zhang Ziyi and Zhao Mingyuan on Weibo, and then he bluntly talked about the special sexual fetish of a famous director, which triggered a wave of entertainment discussions and trends.

Back to Shen Yan, during the promotion of "Back to 20", he clearly felt that he was indeed quite popular...

Even after returning to Beijing, there were fans waiting to pick me up at the airport!
He was confused!

Something totally unexpected...

It's not pretentious.

The phenomenon of fans picking up stars at the airport was originally exclusive to K-pop stars. When HOT first came to mainland China for a concert, some fans would wait at the airport...

Later, SJ came to China for promotion, and even SM Entertainment established Super Junior-M specifically to focus on the mainland market...

Then Han Geng left the group. He is currently the only Chinese star who enjoys the treatment of fans picking him up at the airport...

Therefore, the box office failure of "The Legend of the Condor Heroes" made many people doubt whether fan movies would ever succeed. Later, Wu Lifan's "Somewhere Only We Know" was reduced to 3000 million yuan with a cost of 2.8 million yuan, which made many people realize that it was not fan movies that were not good, but Han Geng's!

Ahem… back to the present.

Shen Yan was extremely embarrassed... because a group of people were holding banners and shouting "A thousand words, the future is waiting for you"...

The slogans are enough to make people tap their toes on the ground, and the key is that there are a lot of people watching...

Shen Yan had no choice but to wave them off to get out of the way. When they reached a less crowded area, he began signing autographs: "How embarrassing! Aren't you embarrassed?"

One of the older sisters shook her head: "...What's there to be ashamed of? We all love you!"

“…How much money did Ji Xiang give you?”

"Who?"

Shen Yan was surprised: "Aren't you hired by my agent? Aren't you the marketing consultants who empower the artist?"

"What the hell?"

"Pretending to be a fake fan to pick you up at the airport?"

“We are real fans!”

Shen Yan signed casually and said, "Okay, you guys are real fans..."

……

Although he was a little skeptical, Shen Yan still posted a photo with fans on Weibo, with the caption: This is the first time in my life that fans picked me up at the airport, and I suddenly feel like I’m quite famous!

Then a group of fans left messages underground: "Where are you?"

“At the Capital Airport…”

Afterwards, Shen Yan promoted "Back to 20" in three cities: BJ, Shanghai, and Shenzhen...

Every time I arrive in a city, there are a bunch of fans waiting to meet me at the airport...

The hotel where we stayed actually received more than a hundred bouquets, all of which were placed in the hotel lobby!
Not only was he surprised, but even the actors who were on the roadshow with him were also surprised.

At the Wanda Cinemas roadshow in Shenzhen, Liu Ye said: "I've never seen such a popular actor. Compared to him, I'm nothing!"

Jing Tian also said: "When we got off the airport, hundreds of people gathered around us, all of them came to see Shen Yan!"

The host continued, "There are a lot of people here today, I guess they are all fans of Shen Yan, right?"

A group of people below shouted: "Yes!"

Shen Yan said: "No, they probably want to listen to my singing for free!" "Then you sing?"

"Sing later..."

A group of people below shouted again: "Sing now!"

"...Okay then, I'll sing 'Let Me Stay By Your Side' a cappella. It's also the promotional song for our 'Back to 20'!"

Shen Yan started singing right away: "I never speak because I'm afraid no one will answer... I never struggle because I know the world is too big~"

……

On the first day of its release, 20 Again took 33% of the screenings, surpassing Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows (Part )…

The latter has been in theaters for twelve days.

The Harry Potter series is a fan film that took in $3 million in the first three days of its release and won the box office, and then took in another $7000 million in the second week.

Ten days of box office 1.5 million...

Before Return to Number 20 was released, Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows: Part 1.6 had already grossed $1.53 million, surpassing the previous Harry Potter film, Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince, which took in $ million.

Cinemas know this: The Harry Potter series will only gross 200 million at most...

This is a judgment based on the market performance of several previous films...

It's obvious that the tail power is insufficient!

Therefore, "Back to 20" got a good screening schedule...

In fact, there are only three blockbusters in this year's Lunar New Year holiday, "The Orphan of Zhao", "Let the Bullets Fly" and "If You Are the One 2".

The promotion of "Back to 20" was good, and it was initially tied to "Introduction to Architecture"...

After the release date was announced, it followed closely behind "Let the Bullets Fly" and "If You Are the One 2" and did bundled marketing...

The heat is high!

The box office on the first day exceeded 1020 million, reaching million~
This isn’t a high score, but you have to remember that November 11th is a Monday… a working day!

The box office result of 1020 million also defeated "Harry Potter" which was released on the 13th day and won the single-day box office championship.

The theater chain took a look and said, "Okay, continue to schedule it, and then take another 1050 million on Tuesday."
The box office exceeded 10 million for two consecutive working days!

By the third day, the single-day box office reached 1400 million.

Word of mouth spread...

"Back to 20" has received very good reviews...

The Douban score is close to 8.2 points.

"It's a film that's full of entertainment, and that's what a commercial film should be like. It's a blessing that a film without any overly ambitious or overly expressive intentions has appeared in our Chinese-language film market."

"It's unpretentious, full of laughter and touching moments. People of all ages will surely have different experiences watching it. It's worth a look! PS: Shen Yan is so handsome, I really want to see him play in a band!"

"The film is a triumphant script, approaching the film in a fantastical way, telling some heavy or poignant stories in a humorous way. The many dramatic effects brought about by "Return" are quite interesting. It lacks a little stamina, but overall it deserves applause."

Objectively speaking, Chen Zhengdao’s filming is not bad, but it shouldn’t be rated 8.2 points!
Well, the original version was after "Miss Granny" and had Lu Han in it, so many people rated it with prejudice... This time it was before "Miss Granny", and Shen Yan had a very high audience favorability...

Most importantly, Da Tiantian has not been equated with bad movies!

Anyway, on December 12rd, when Shen Yan left the publicity team, "Back to 3" had been released for four days, and I heard that the box office had exceeded 20 million!
Well, it’s opening weekend!

I don’t know how they negotiated the screening schedule for “The Laughing Man”—“The Laughing Man” will be released on December 12rd…

It's another play directed by Zhu Yanping...

A bad movie is scheduled!

But no matter what, "Back to 20" will definitely break the million mark!

And the word of mouth is good, Shen Yan's reputation is preserved.
