Chapter 507: Locking the Field Is Such a Cool Operation
December 3rd was only the third day of the release of "The Legend of Life and Death", and the single-day box office directly exceeded 300 million.
300 million, in a single day.
It scared the shit out of many people.
How many movies don’t have 300 million in one month of release, but 300 million in one day?
On the contrary, the decline of Wanxian is irreversible. If it were not supported by so many pomp and show stipulated in the contract, the box office of 20 million on the third day would be too ugly.
So far, it has not exceeded 200 million!
In this situation, even if others are not anxious, Wanxian's fans can't sit still.
After all, you can’t let your family lose too badly, right?
Although it is indeed too ugly to lose.
Some fans began to organize and orderly lock cinemas.
What is called locking is to prevent the movie from being watched by the cinema during a period of time and causing it to be abandoned and rescheduled to other movies.
Fans will buy one or two slots to occupy the movie in this time period, forcing the cinema to play it.
This behavior is called locking.
Of course, organized and disciplined fans can buy a few more tickets at the last minute, which at least allows the cinema to earn back the electricity and labor costs of this show.
After all, if only one or two movie tickets are sold for a movie, there is no doubt that the movie is losing money.
This is what Wanxian fans do.
But I couldn’t stand it because there were too many shows and I didn’t have enough money to lock in the show, so I just locked up a ticket once it was over and didn’t pay for it.
This kind of thing, for movie theaters, is simply blocking the way of people and money.
It's clear that no one is watching your movie, but you still block the movie theater and cut off the movie theater's money.
At the same show, the Immortal Life and Death Recording was almost full and there were no seats available. You just want to occupy the pit, but you still dare to do such an immoral thing?
Some theater chains immediately became popular, and before the large-scale lock-in broke out, they were first exposed online.
This incident also added a wave of laughter to Wanxian, making the melon-eaters almost laugh out loud.
They had heard of booking a venue, but this was the first time they had seen such a rude operation.
You have to sincerely help your idol get the box office, and you have to pay for it.
You can do this kind of thing by locking the theater and offending it.
It would be fine if the movie theater turned a blind eye during the unpopular period. Now the Immortal Life and Death Record is a big hit, and the number of shows is not enough. Now that Wan Xian is doing such a thing, isn't it blocking the movie theater's financial path? ?
Destroying someone's wealth is like killing one's parents.
The theater manager even called Wanxian to scold him.
Even the IMAX halls of the other two Huaguoda theater chains have begun to contact Junci, saying that they want to sign a contract with Xianzhong Life and Death Record for the IMAX hall broadcast rights for the later time period.
Of course Jun Ci agreed to the matter of making money, so he agreed readily.
However, Wanxian's contract is still there, and it will take at least half a month to pass before the broadcast rights in the IMAX hall will be vacant.
Except for the first one to cooperate with Junci, the other two theaters will have to wait until half a month before they can release Junci's movies in their IMAX halls.
But at this time, another more critical issue emerged.
The movie was so popular, but the director didn't make any noise from beginning to end, and didn't stand up to support his popular movie?
Although Eagle Media has begun to urgently contact the two leading actors Luo Lanyi and Fu Zhisheng, including several supporting actors, to promote it, but the director can't come out. Isn't this strange?
