acting substitution syndrome

With the explosion of "Flying to Ptolemy", the evaluations of the movie on various forums and social networks have also changed, from evaluations of the movie to complaints about not being able to watch the movie.

That's right, complaining.

"Nimma, is it so difficult to watch a movie now? For a movie ticket, I waited from the 16th to the 20th, but I still can't wait for a ticket. Is this trying to force me to buy scalpers?"

"Where is it upstairs?"

"In a small county on the [-]th line, there is only one cultural center movie theater in the entire county. Tickets are sold out as soon as tickets are issued, and sold out as soon as tickets are issued. Don't people in the entire county come to buy tickets instead of working?"

"Don't complain, landlord. You know I'm in Beijing. Although there are many movie theaters here, you can't even grab an IMAX one. I started queuing at 7 o'clock yesterday morning, and it's been almost 5 hours. By the time I got to me, there was only the midnight show at 11 o'clock tomorrow night, and there was only the first row, you think this movie lasts more than 3 hours, and you don't know if you can stand it if you look up!"

"Let's contribute a ticket-buying spectacle in Shanghai. You know the blind date corner in the park. Every morning, there are more than 100 old men and women who go on blind dates with their children no matter the weather. But in the past two days, no one can be seen! "

"Where did you go, you don't know how to buy a ticket?"

"It's true! Hulala went to the movie theater to buy tickets, and I bought them for the children. Now I don't give the children blind dates, I have to buy tickets for the children!"

"Upstairs, maybe this is a new way of dating hahahaha..."

In addition to buying tickets on the spot, there are also mobile terminal ticket purchases, but people soon discovered that several commonly used ticket purchase apps have all failed.

Some showed that the payment could not be made, and some showed that the payment was successful but they couldn’t get the exchange voucher. The customer service calls were all busy. After finally getting through, they were told that the network was down because there were too many people buying tickets!

And this thing?

Needless to say, this is the first time that several major ticket-buying websites have encountered such a thing in so many years. They are too busy to restore the program and restore the network, and they have to respond to complaints from consumers, and they all express emotion in unison.

Look at others 12306!

Why is China's railway ticket purchase process so stable?

12306: No, no, with your crazy ticket-buying model, I would be scared if I came.

……

The key is that there are two other news that have also appeared on CCTV news.

One is about scalpers.

Because tickets are hard to find everywhere now, scalpers are rampant. An ordinary ticket can fetch as much as 160 yuan, and an IMAX ticket can be as high as 500 yuan. There are even scalpers selling "" Fly to Ptolemy's post.

Regarding this phenomenon, relevant departments are also vigorously rectifying it.

The media warned scalpers not to break the law knowingly.

The second news is a bit funny to be honest. It is about Wanda Studios, and an elevator was paralyzed.

An elevator that can accommodate about 13 people squeezed 23 people in abruptly, because everyone wanted to take this elevator to buy tickets, but no one was willing to get down.

Then the elevator groaned and groaned overwhelmed, paralyzed.

It's cheaper to go up the stairs to buy tickets.

……

At the beginning, a big V on Zhihu broke the news that he had bought a standing ticket for "Fly to Ptolemy".

The sharing of this story was also automatically judged by Zhihu to contain a certain degree of fiction, which aroused ridicule from netizens.

But soon netizens discovered that this was not a fictional story.

Because they also... bought standing tickets.

"Look, what is this?"

"Movie tickets, buddy, yes, I bought the IMAX version of "Fly to Ptolemy"!"

"Let you look at the handwritten line on the back of the movie ticket and see what is written there?"

"... standing ticket!"

"That's right, it's a standing ticket! This is the first time I've bought a standing ticket for a movie at the age of 38! I was also reminded to bring my own folding chair! Shit!"

……

The reason why the movie is so popular is very simple. One is Donghuang’s strategic marketing. You see, before the movie was released, they played the banner of starring Robbie. It cost a lot of money and caused a wave of enthusiasm on social media, saying that the movie has amazing visuals, and if you want to watch it, you have to watch the IMAX version.

But Donghuang and the theaters agreed, but IMAX's ticket sales are few.

This is hunger marketing.

The more you can't buy it, the more the audience wants to buy it.

The ticket has become a symbol.

There are many people who were not interested in this movie at first, but now there are voices of not being able to buy tickets everywhere on the Internet, which has aroused the interest of the audience.

What kind of movie is this, you can't even buy a ticket?

As a result, it became the driving force for the audience to spontaneously enter the cinema.

……

As a result, the audience who walked into the movie theater found that the movie was really good, at least worthy of the ticket price, and then they showed off in the circle of friends, which triggered a wave of onlookers.

People who can’t buy tickets are curious, and those who can get tickets show off, so more people enter the cinema with curiosity and come out to show off…

……

Of course, the production and content of the movie itself are the most fundamental reasons for this box office spectacle.

The movie itself is good-looking. Director He Xiangdongguang has polished the script for 12 years, plus Donghuang's special effects production, plus the superb shape simulation of the lead actor Robbie, plus strong support from the Space Administration and the Eastern Military Region...

Of course, there is another important reason.

This movie evokes people's simple patriotism.

It's not that Chinese people like to watch American blockbusters, it's that China itself can't shoot the exciting war scenes and magnificent special effects scenes like the United States.

It's not that Chinese people insist on comparison, but that domestic science fiction really broke the hearts of the audience.

Others can shoot it, but it’s fine if I can’t, and I’m still making money in the name of domestic science fiction.

The anger of Chinese people towards domestic science fiction constitutes derogation.

That constitutes prejudice.

This is to hate iron but not steel.

The more belittled and prejudiced, the more this domestic science fiction will fail to achieve results and become successful.

……

But now, "Fly to Ptolemy" was born, and finally broke the shackles.

On October 10, the cumulative box office exceeded 21 billion.

On November 11, the box office exceeded 1 billion.

……

Ben, you're back.

According to the four-fold leverage law of movies, an investment of about 5 million in a science fiction film is now equivalent to a return of capital.

However, in fact, for these 5 million miles, there are 2 million subsidies from the state's special funds.

So it means that Donghuang has already started to make money.

Moreover, for the remaining 3 million miles, Donghuang invested 2 million, and there is another 1 million, which Mr. Gu promised to give to the two children.

Xiao Yuanyuan and Wang Feifei children.

Each accounted for 50.00% of the investment.

……

On November 11, the single day, the box office reached 11 billion.

The major theaters are planning to postpone the film to mid-December.

By then, it should break through the 50 billion mark.

……

Xiao Zhenting and Wang Kai stared blankly at the child standing in front of them.

Trembling voice: "You..."

Xiao Yuanyuan: "Dad, my personal investment accounted for 12.00% point five, and when the box office breaks through 50 billion, I can share 6 million, and the final tax is 5.1 million."

Not to be outdone, Wang Feifei said, "Me too!"

Mr. Gu came up: "The children wanted to raise funds for Robli to make a movie, so they mortgaged your house with me, and now you can take it away."

Take 5000 million and exchange it for 5 million.

Xiao Zhenting took Fangben tremblingly.

finally realized...

His sky base, which was about to sink, was finally saved.

All this is due to the innocent and simple wishes of the children.

They just want to help Robrie make a movie.

Robrey laughed too.

Scratching his head: "Hey, this is probably unintentional. The children helped me fulfill my wish, and also helped Mr. Xiao and Mr. Wang to get out of the difficulties."

……

That's right, only a net profit of 1.3 million can be successful in betting against each other.

Now, Xiao Zhenting and Wang Kai have a net profit of 5 million yuan.

Xiao Zhenting was at a loss for words, and kept holding Mr. Gu's hand with red eyes, expressing his gratitude to Mr. Gu incoherently, "In the future, Mr. Gu has orders, and he will die."

Xiao Zhenting took a deep breath, and roared angrily: "My grandma's Zhang Dahai, and Guan Hongsheng, I'm out of breath now, let's see how I kill you!"

On November 11, Robrie also participated in the Tmall Gala hosted by Mango Channel.

As a special host, he participated in the Tmall Gala throughout the whole process.

Tug-of-war games, relay races, bubble bed quiz games, and hard-selling prizes, made the audience in front of the TV angry and funny: "We were staring at the screen to grab the red envelopes to grab the prizes. Flying around like butterflies, even the big screen was blocked, so we didn't know whether to watch Robbie or the screen!"

Host Litman invited guests to come up and wrestle with Robrie.

Robbie flexes his muscles.

Then hang shoulders with the guests.

I heard him whisper: "Later buddy, you pretend to lose to me, and I will treat you to dinner after the party is over..."

I still didn’t forget to remind: “Act more realistically, I’ll give you a reminder later.”

Unexpectedly, the big screen was facing Robrie.

Robbie forgot to turn off his microphone.

The scene burst into laughter.

The audience in front of the TV also staggered with laughter.

"Robry, hahahaha, Robbry actually bribed the guests to cheat hahahaha!"

"Robbie's Muscle Scam Hahahaha!"

"Robbie really gave his life for his bragging muscles haha!"

Then, Tmall's turnover exceeded 5000 billion.

……

On November 11, "An Official Comes to the Village" was released on Netflix.

As early as the 10th, Robrie recorded a speech video in English.

The first Netflix promotion.

"Hi friends from Netflix, I am Robrie, an actor from China. It is a great pleasure to meet you in the TV series starring me on Netflix. This is a story about China's poverty alleviation. Here, there are a group of low-income, low-security farmers who depend on the sky for food. The barren land and closed environment have caused extreme poverty..."

Facing the camera, Robery talked eloquently: "...Secretary Feng is an official who responded to the call of the country and came to the western mountainous area to help the poor people. He is one of the thousands of officials who have gone to the countryside to help the poor. He is a real People who exist, his story is a real story, and his contribution to the poor areas is also real and needs to be remembered."

"I hope such a story can move you. Of course, this TV series has no heroes or heroism. How simple working people can change their destiny with their own hands is the theme of this TV series. How to create a better life in their limited youth?" Things that have vitality don't let the years go to waste, this is what I'm about to tell you."

"Thank you for listening to my recommendation. Let's meet in TV series. My Twitter account is... If you have different feelings, please communicate with me."

Off camera, the little assistant Haidong opened his mouth wide.

"Brother, did you memorize the manuscript in advance? Your manuscript is too high-level."

There were several sentences that she didn't quite understand.

Haidong is a serious person who has passed the sixth grade.

"No," who would have thought that Robery said easily, "I just opened my mouth and said it."
