Huayu: When the director changed his major

Chapter 277 Feng Pants Breaks Defense

The next day, the premiere of "Detective Chinatown" at Yanda University directly ranked second on the hot search list.

Some video clips from the night have also been leaked.

When we saw the witty and humorous answers from the creative team, especially Cheng Xi and Fan Binbin, we couldn't help but laugh.

[Amazing! My Director Cheng actually held the premiere at Yanda University!]

[But honestly, the questions asked by Yan University students are really rude, and they don't even consider who they are asking.]

The most searched topic was an interview with Feng Kuazi.

The bold words uttered by the man with his head held high and wearing a hat - "I am particularly lonely and invincible" - directly became the number one hot search term.

The people under the Weibo post started to make a fuss.

[That's because you haven't met Director Cheng before! ]

[The comment above, Director Feng is right, he has always been number one in the same period.]

[Even when compared to "Let the Bullets Fly," it was number one during their overlapping release periods.]

What's there to argue about? Yesterday's box office figures will be released soon, and then we'll just see who's the best.

As netizens wished, it will soon be the morning of December 12th.

The box office results for the much-anticipated "Detective Chinatown" and "Private Tailor" are finally out.

The total box office on Thursday was 2.5 million.

Among them, "Private Customization" had a box office of 7500 million on the first day.

The box office of "Detective Chinatown" on the first day was as high as 8600 million!
Director Feng, who was still alone in his pursuit of victory last night, was directly defeated!

All of a sudden, Weibo became completely lively.

[I told you not to set a flag, or you'll be slapped in the face in a minute.]

[Last night he was still invincible, but today he is truly defeated! ]

[But it's still 7500 million, maybe it will exceed that later!]

[The person above, you definitely haven't watched "Personal Customization." I'm not even talking about the plot, but the product placement every five minutes really took me away.]

[Yeah, is a big director really that short on money? I decided to take my wife to see Detective Chinatown tonight. Everyone who's seen and heard it says it's good!]

While Wang Zhonglei and Feng Kuazi were waiting for the results at the company, they were surprised to see that their box office was 7000 million more than 500 million.

But when I saw the box office of "Detective Chinatown".

They were all stunned.

"What! 8600 million!?"

"Impossible, how is this possible? Are they trying to steal the box office? It's Thursday!"

But no matter how unbelievable it was, the result was placed in front of them.

Wang Zhonglei immediately called a meeting with the marketing team:
"Add another 2000 million to marketing expenses, and give me full power to promote it!"

"Also, please investigate for me whether the box office figures for Detective Chinatown are inflated!"

"This movie must beat Detective Chinatown no matter what!"

Wang Zhonglei looked fierce but was actually timid, and at the same time, he was thinking:

"Don't lose! If we lose three times in a row, the stock price will plummet. By then, my eldest brother will be back from abroad."

Wang Zhonglei simply couldn't imagine how angry his elder brother would be at that time!

Unfortunately, many things cannot be solved with money.

As more and more audiences go to theaters to watch the two movies.

Initially, the increased publicity for "Personal Tailor" did have some effect, with the box office still reaching 8 million on Friday.

But then came a sudden fall.

Over the weekend, the figures directly reversed to 6100 million and 4800 million.

Meanwhile, Detective Chinatown is making great strides, surpassing 1 million yuan on Sunday alone, bringing its total box office to 3.66 million yuan over four days.

As a result of this increase and decrease, "Personal Customization" performed even worse at the box office in its second week.

In particular, the criticism from film critics and audiences has become increasingly louder.

"This isn't about disgusting yourself and fulfilling others; it's totally disgusting others and fulfilling yourself!"

"The story is fragmented, the structure is broken, and the screen is full of advertisements. They treat the audience like fools!"

"From a purely comedic perspective, 'Personal Tailor' isn't that funny, and the plot is quite melodramatic, a bit forced."

These comments hit home.

As a result, Feng Kuazi's defense was directly broken after he slapped "The Lonely and Defeatable" in the face.

He actually posted seven consecutive Weibo posts starting at 6 a.m., cursing the audience and film critics.

[Feng Kuzi: I give the movie "Personal Tailor" a score of 6 for entertainment and a score of 9 for criticism.

On the other hand, the vast majority of film critics who pretend to know about movies can only give it a score of 3.

From 1942 to the custom-made version, your ridicule and revelry just reflect your shallowness. I despise you. Stop shamelessly trying to lead the audience. It's shameful!

[Feng Kuazi: I'm not afraid of offending you, and I will always be irreconcilable with you. I'm not Zhang Yimou, who will tolerate and indulge you!]

These 7 consecutive Weibo posts caused a huge uproar on the Internet!

Major news portals also rushed to report:

"Daily Entertainment reports: 'Private Tailor,' produced by Huayi and directed by Feng Kuazi, starring Ge You, Bai Baihe, Li Xiaolu, and Zheng Kai, has seen its box office decline recently. Critics have criticized its fragmented storyline and confusing themes, while audiences are particularly dissatisfied with the product placement."

"Director Feng even posted seven Weibo posts starting at 6 a.m. this morning accusing critics and audiences of not understanding movies."

But the situation is quite different for "Detective Chinatown".

"I wonder how many people, like me, went to see Fan Binbin, Chen He, and Xiao Yang with the same expectation of watching a cheesy comedy! But unexpectedly, they were pleasantly surprised!"

"The story is complete, the performance is smooth, and the jokes are not awkward. So this movie is worth recommending~"

"I never thought there would be a commercial blockbuster detective film in China. The comedy aside, I'm very satisfied with the rigor of the two cases! As a fan of hardcore mystery, this looks really exciting."

At this time, Cheng Xi also posted a meaningful Weibo.

【Drunk White:
You can't think that critics and audiences are wrong only when they criticize you.

But when people praise you, just enjoy it and keep silent.

Thank you for your support, dear audience, you are always right.

I said!

Cheng Xi's action can be described as killing someone and destroying their heart.

Your Feng Kuazi's defense is broken. If I don't add some salt to the wound, how can I beat Huayi?

When netizens saw Director Cheng speaking for them, they cheered "666".

As a result, film critics have a better impression of Director Cheng.

With the cooperation of Zuibai’s publicity, positive reviews came one after another.

They are all water troops.

This time, "Personal Tailor" is completely unable to catch up with "Detective Chinatown".

This time, not only did the reputation of Huayi and Feng Pants suddenly deteriorate, but public opinion was also directly reflected in the stock price.

Huayi’s stock price was relatively strong two days before the release, but it took a big negative turn on the third day.

Over the next ten days, the market continued to fall.

Of course, Cheng Xi ordered Li Wentao to sell all his stocks within a week before the film was released.

This time, "Detective Chinatown" competes with "Private Customization", which can be said to kill three birds with one stone and reap great rewards!
