Chapter 908

"When checking the screening, the market share of "Dragon Gate Flying Armor" reached 25% on the 15th, but Jiahe Cinema, a subsidiary of Century Peak, encountered a cold reception. Currently, the first day of screening is only 2%. Similarly, "The Flowers of Jinling" has only 2.2% of screening in Wanda. According to insiders, Wanda's headquarters has issued an order to ban "The Flowers of Jinling"; Century Peak has also decided to ban Wanda's films." "Beiping Daily"

"This year's New Year and Spring Festival, Wanda Pictures has also released many films such as "The Flying Armor of the Dragon Gate", "Intimate Enemy" and "The Great Magician"; and Century Peak also holds many films such as "The Flowers of Jinling", "Chasing the K-Stars", and "Tears of the City". The confrontation between Century Peak and Wanda has just begun. How long will this quiet and deep secret battle last? Whether the ban rumors are true can only be seen in the screening." "Wenhui Daily"

"The Peak of the Century and Wanda have a deep grudge. It can be foreseen that after the short battle between "The Flowers of War" and "The Dragon Gate Flying Armor", there will be more opportunities for head-on confrontation in the future, and the good show has just begun." "West China Metropolis Daily"

"The peak of the century and Wanda ban each other, and Zhang Yimou and Tsui Hark's efforts to become cannon fodder in business wars?" Yangcheng Evening News

Although the media cannot determine whether Century Peak and Wanda really banned their opponents, everyone knows the conflict between Century Peak and Wanda. No one finds it strange that the two sides start a war, so the next day, major domestic media reported this news as soon as possible.

However, Century Peak and Wanda both denied the statement of banning their opponents. Some things can be done, but they cannot be said.

Zeng Maojun, the CEO of Wanda Cinemas, said: "Wanda, which has great interests, will not be unable to get along with money. Even if Wanda is willing to vain the profits and block the peak of the century, the investors who point to Wanda's dividends will not agree."

Gao Jun, the head of Century Peak Cinemas, also said: "We do not have the so-called ban on Wanda. We have all the films arranged for them. However, the quality of Wanda's films is average, and we are not optimistic about box office performance, so there are fewer films. If "Dragon Gate Flying Armor" has a good box office, we will definitely increase the film schedule according to the programmatic process!"

Just as the media was talking about the war between the peak of the century and Wanda, the supporters of "The Flowers of Jinling" and fans of "Dragon Gate Flying Armor" also started a fierce battle. Zhang Ran and Zhang Yimou's fans faced Tsui Hark, Jet Li, Zhou Xun, Li Yuchun and others, and the two sides were crazy about each other. The entire battle went from meager to Tieba, from Maopu to Hupu, from Tianya Gossip to Douban Gossip, it can be said that it swept the entire network.

Of course, because the movies in which Century Peak and Wanda banned each other's opponents also caused inconvenience to some movie fans to watch, some movie fans complained on the Internet.

"I recharged my membership card in Wanda, but now I don't even have the "The Flowers of War" and have to go to other cinemas to watch it. How can this happen? When will the country take action to rectify the film industry? Will it really be the case in the future? What will we watch? "

"Why is the war at the film company affecting us? You are kidnapping the audience!"

"Let the film company decide to schedule films for personal gain, rather than based on the audience's preferences, be an unreasonable offense to the audience. In the long run, the entire Chinese film industry will hurt. I just hope that this farce will end quickly, and the General Administration will also pay attention to this matter soon!"

For the audience, they don’t care about the conflict between Century Peak and Wanda. They only know that Century Peak and Wanda block their opponents so that they cannot watch movies nearby, causing them trouble.

Amid the noise, time soon came December 15th.

The promotion and secret battles of "The Flowers of War" and "The Flowers of War" have already made the audience eager to wait. Although it was a working day, many viewers still couldn't wait to experience the atmosphere of the New Year holiday. At 2 pm, "The Flowers of War" was officially released, and the attendance rate remained high. It wiped out the sluggishness of the previous few days, and the theaters were full of lively scenes. At 6 pm, "The Flowers of War" was launched on time, and audiences came to buy tickets in a constant stream. Basically, there were a lot of movie tickets, and the audience was selling out the stars in the screening hall. The audience had something to do if they had anything to come.

"The Flying Armor of Dragon Gate" was released at 2 o'clock, with 115 films nationwide. "The Flowers of War" started at 1 o'clock, and the national number of films was surveyed. 66% of the audience believed that "The Flowers of War" exceeded their expectations.

With the official release of the movie, "The Flowers of War" has sparked heated discussions on the Internet. Zhang Yimou, Tom Cruise, and the heroine Ni Ni were all sent to the hot search list by netizens. #The Flowers of War# was even sent to the real-time hot search and ranked first, with one-sided praise on the Internet.

"This is a restrained feature film, and it is also an action blockbuster that is exaggerated and tender on the one hand, while ostentatious and cruel on the other hand, while sensational but not tear-jerking. It is more of a suppression. The accumulated emotions have nowhere to be vented until the end of the play, and I still feel scared after watching it. I hope this work can awaken the Chinese people and never forget the national humiliation."

"So far, the most successful, most intense and artistic films have been filmed in the War of Resistance Against Japan. China has not written a decent war literature for eight years, sixty or seventy years. Similarly, the anti-Japanese war films are overwhelming, but no one really deeply explores the cruelty of war and the beauty of human nature. Today, such a movie has finally emerged in China. In terms of the artistic level of films, it can be called a perfect film."

"There are no prostitutes and students here. Only thirteen people stepped forward to save thirteen weaker people. They made a choice based on human nature, as if the flames polished in the wind and snow burst out with faint light and heat, and perhaps they could save the match girl."

That night, "Dragon Gate Flying Armor", which has not been on the hot search list on Weibo, finally appeared on the hot search list. However, for the supporters of Wanda and "Dragon Gate Flying Armor", they would rather not be on the hot search list because "Dragon Gate Flying Armor" in the hot search on Weibo, there are two words behind "Dragon Gate Flying Armor": bad movies!

Weibo is a platform with thousands of marketing accounts on this platform. In the past century, Dingfeng had relatively relaxed management of marketing accounts. As long as you don’t crazy fans, create rumors, and violate the law, Dingfeng never interferes; but this time Dingfeng made requirements for these marketing accounts, implying that these marketing accounts criticized "Dangmen Flying Armor".

Marketing accounts rely on Weibo to survive, so naturally they dare not offend Century Peak. Otherwise, Century Peak will find an excuse to ban the account and they will be finished. Therefore, after receiving the hint from Century Peak, thousands of marketing accounts were dispatched collectively to start blackmailing "Dragon Gate Flying Armor", and instantly put "Dragon Gate Flying Armor" on the hot search list in the name of a bad movie.

In recent years, Century Peak has controlled Huxiu through investment and acquisitions, 21st Century Media and other media. These media naturally posted the articles to support "The Flowers of Jinling" and "The Flowers of Dragon Gate" as soon as possible; in addition, Sohu, NetEase and other media, which have good cooperation with Century Peak, have also sang praises for "The Flowers of Jinling" and blackened "The Flowers of Dragon Gate", put the stamp of a bad movie on "The Flowers of Dragon Gate" and talked about "The Flowers of Dragon Gate" in Tsui Hark's "The Wild Prover".

"The plot is long-lasting, and I have said a lot of short dialogues that imitate "Longmen Inn". It's too pale and powerless!! Do you have to compete with "Painted Wall" with whose lines are disgusting? In the end, the tornado final battle was also the same. Jet Li and Chen Kun didn't have a few moves. Jet Li threw a sentence, "If you have the ability, fight me in the storm! You mom might as well say directly, let's go, buddy, fight in the storm, it's easier to do special stunts, and it's better to shoot it in 3D. Then the two of them started playing the chain, Chen Kun turned around, like a nebula chain, and like a gymnastics. There was no kung fu, and it suddenly became a disaster film."

"There are serious loopholes in the special stunts. I fucking saw the black edges you cut in the picture? Beyond the 6th version of Journey to the West, are you just high-tech? Are you satisfied? Are you?"

"There is no worst but even worse! The plot of "Dragon Gate Flying Armor" is nothing new, it can only stir up a cold rice! Director Tsui Hark originally liked you, but you disappointed me this time! Two people in the film fight and started chatting, Damn! It's like a lot of laughter in the cinema. This vest reviews you bought for money are called an occasional joke! Damn, what do you think? In order to make money, I let such a bad Hong Kong drama come to China to deceive the people who like movies and really love movies! Is there no department that can supervise such commercial productions and really come out to cheat money?"

Wanda is not completely without backhand power. Yu Dong has been in the film industry for many years and still has some connections in the media. More importantly, after Huayi was completely defeated by Century Peak, Wanda incorporated the Beijing circle forces. In addition, media such as "New Crystal News" which are incompatible with Century Peak, at least in traditional media, Wanda's power cannot be underestimated.

Under Wanda's control, media led by Xinjingbao and experts and professors led by Zhu Dake were singing praises for "Dragon Gate Flying Armor" and saying it was a new benchmark for Chinese martial arts movies. At the same time, they published articles to criticize "The Flowers of War" from various angles, such as "erotic patriotism", "national consumption crisis", "why do Chinese people want foreigners to come to save", "prostitutes to save women", "why should prostitutes change virginity" and so on; some of them even brought the negative comments of the American media on "The Flowers of War" and shouted, "Americans are not easy to cheat, and "The Flowers of War" are full of bad comments."

While the secret battle with Wanda at the peak of the century, fans of "The Flowers of War" and "The Flowers of War" were also on Douban. Time.com frantically gave their own movies five stars and one star for their opponents. Because the number of participants on both sides was comparable, the rating of "The Flowers of War" always fluctuated around 5 points, while "The Flowers of War" has always been positive.

It's Monday soon, and the latest week's box office data is released.

"The Flowers of Jinling" topped the top with 1.75 million yuan, and "The Dragon Gate Flying Armor" followed closely with 14.25 million yuan. Although "The Flowers of Jinling" and "The Dragon Gate Flying Armor" performed well, the booming situation of the New Year's holiday did not appear, and the two movies did not break any important box office record. Many industry insiders were slightly disappointed with the performance of "The Flowers of Jinling" and "The Dragon Gate Flying Armor". With the expansion of the market, neither movie reached the domineering level of 210 million yuan in the first week of "Let the Bullets Flying" last year's New Year's holiday.

For big productions like "The Flowers of War" and "The Dragon Gate Flying Armor", the first week mainly relies on the sensational effect, the second week is the key to success or failure, and the second week largely relies on the reputation of the movie!
