Chapter 137 First Day Box Office
As soon as midnight passed, the box office figures for the Dragon Boat Festival were released.
"Joyful Screen" took the top spot with 3845.6 million views.
"Thunder 5" followed closely behind with 3417.5 million.
"The Abyss" ranked third at the box office with 2314.3 million.
"Youth Without Confusion" ranked fourth with 1856.8 million views.
The box office figures had barely been released when marketing accounts started posting about them.
"Miracle member Matsue crossed over to act in a movie, and the box office was a complete failure on the first day, which shows that there is a clear barrier between movies and idols."
"The box office performance of the movie 'Youth Without Confusion' is poor, which shows that traffic is no longer a boost to a movie, but can actually be a hindrance."
"The previous film directed by Qian You was a box office failure. Now, this film uses popular actress Song Yue. I wonder if he regrets it."
"It's obvious that 'Youth Without Confusion' is at the bottom of the box office, and this kind of movie with popular stars will be cut in half the next day. This movie will add another stroke to Qian You's list of failures."
……
"I knew this movie was worse than a ten without even watching it, and it turned out just as I expected."
"Haha, I expected this result long ago. So many movies use popular actors as the main characters and they're just a bunch of bad movies, just to fleece fans."
"Now Songyue is behaving herself. She really thinks she's something just because her fans praise her a few times. From now on, she should just be a proper idol. Movies are not something an idol like her should get involved in."
"I heard that Yue Xuantong was originally cast in this movie. She has acting skills, movie appeal, and is beautiful. But they insisted on casting Song Yue instead. Casting her would be better than casting a popular idol. This director must have lost his mind."
"If the director wasn't out of his mind, why would he choose Song Yue over Yue Xuantong? The result now proves that both of them are mentally ill."
……
At this time, it wasn't just marketing accounts that were eyeing the film's box office performance; Yue Xuantong was also watching closely.
Seeing the current result, I can finally relax.
This movie will at best break even, and may even lose money. Such a low-budget film won't add much value to her.
She looked down on Song's films, especially.
As he read the comments from marketing accounts and passersby, his smile grew wider and wider, and his fingers swiped across the phone screen.
If Song Yue dared to accept the cakes she didn't want, then she shouldn't blame Song Yue for being ruthless; she would never allow her reputation to be affected in the slightest.
For a young idol to dare to venture into the film industry is like a sheep entering a wolf's den—it's suicide. Let this senior teach her a lesson and teach her some manners.
The agent stood by, smiling and comforting him.
"Don't worry, I'll keep an eye on things for you, I guarantee they won't cause any trouble."
We don't dare to market it too much now. If the movie fails at the box office in a while, we'll market it to you as someone with good judgment who refused to star in it.
Moreover, when Director Song's "The World of Power and Intrigue" is released in the future, you will get much more than you do now, and you might even win Best Supporting Actress.
With both box office success and strong performance, your career is sure to reach new heights.
Who will remember this movie in the future? Even if they do, it'll be because you refused it, and they'll have to praise you for your foresight.
Hearing her agent's comforting words, Yue Xuantong's smile grew wider and wider.
Before going to sleep, I looked at the barrage of criticisms of "Youth Without Confusion" on my phone, and slept soundly while holding my phone. I don't know what good things I dreamed about, but I couldn't help but smile.
The box office of "Youth Without Confusion" is indeed not as good as those movies that grossed over 100 million yuan on their opening day. But is the box office of this movie really as bad as the marketing accounts say?
When Qian You saw the result, he excitedly rushed to tell Song Yue the good news.
"Our movie actually grossed 18 million on its opening day, and the reviews I read were all positive. This movie will definitely break even."
Thinking back to when the script was born from my hands, and now that I finally see it brought to the screen, I can't help but feel excited.
"Matsuki, thank you. Thank you for starring in this film, and thank you for your investment and promotion. Without you, this film's success would have been impossible; you are the biggest contributor."
Speaking of which, I thought of the twists and turns this movie went through. In order to attract investment, he drank until he had a stomach hemorrhage before he finally managed to get investment.
Later, the female lead, who had been finally cast, withdrew from the role; the second female lead, who was brought in by the investors, had her scenes changed and added; and then the investors withdrew their funding.
Looking back now, everything I experienced is still vivid in my mind.
It was through these experiences that he realized how precious Song Yue's performance, the timely investment, and her dedicated acting were.
Qian Youdu couldn't help but want to cry.
There's a saying that movies can break even with only three times the cost of production.
In other words, if the production cost of this movie is 10 million, it only needs to gross 30 million to break even; anything more is profit.
Qian You certainly has ambitions for box office success, but his primary goal is to break even.
Songyue comforted her with a smile.
"Director Qian, this film is your life's work, and the greatest credit is undoubtedly yours."
Moreover, the success of this film is a collective achievement; I simply did what I was supposed to do.
Qian You was so moved that he was almost overflowing with emotion.
"No matter what, Matsue, your significance to this film is irreplaceable."
"From now on, if you ever need my money, don't hesitate to ask."
In the end, Qian You comforted Song Yue.
“Songyue, don’t look at those messages online. Those marketing accounts only care about money and not about their mothers. Even if you pay them to curse your mother, they will find a way to do it.”
Songyue couldn't help but laugh.
"Director Qian, how could I possibly be misled by marketing accounts?"
"Besides, I've been ridiculed by marketing accounts since my debut, so this is nothing."
Qian You couldn't help but smile when he heard this, forgetting that Song Yue had gone through countless experiences since her debut as an idol.
After hanging up the phone, Songyue shook her head with a smile. Director Qian had probably drunk a lot of alcohol, but seeing this result, he should be able to breathe a sigh of relief.
Not only was Director Qian relieved, but Song Yue also prepared to get a good night's sleep after seeing the result.
Tian Jing also shared the good news with Song Yue.
This is Yueyue's first movie, so of course we hope for a great start. If the box office is bad, it will easily attract ridicule.
However, it seems that as long as this movie doesn't lose money, that's already pretty good.
These days, there are very few movies that don't lose money, so this can be considered a small step forward in the film industry.
Tian Jing was already thinking about Song Yue's future plans.
Don't underestimate this small step. Song Yue has opened a small door in the film industry, making it easier for her to develop her career in the film industry compared to others.
After all, the film industry isn't easy to get into. You can see how many famous actors in the television industry are desperate to break into the film industry.
