Chapter 1619 The Avengers are highly anticipated
Li Jiaqi was preparing for the crew of "Thor 2" at this time. She wanted to read the script carefully at noon, but was interrupted by Wang Jie's arrival.
"Director Li, our "Zhu Xian" ratings were only 17% yesterday, and the Internet is in full swing now." Wang Jie was a little panicked. The agent Sun Xueqin on the side was very calm. She didn't support it at first, but Wang Jie must come, so she had to follow him.
"Forehead?"
Li Jiaqi looked at the door and frowned slightly, "Has the premiere ratings come out?"
"It's out, only 17%!" Wang Jie was a little panicked. He was the protagonist of this drama. If the ratings were not high, someone would take the blame, then he would definitely be the big deal.
In the entire "Zhu Xian", there is no need to mention the script provided by Ye Xinghui. No one in the entire entertainment industry has doubted Li Jiaqi's director skills. The heroine Zhao Qiaoqiao has not yet appeared in the first two episodes, so the responsibility for the failure of the ratings is definitely Wang Jie's fault.
Otherwise he wouldn't have been so anxious.
"Okay, I understand. You can go back with your agent first." Li Jiaqi nodded at Sun Xueqin, then pushed the door and walked out.
Inside the general manager's office.
"Mr. Ye..."
Li Jiaqi was a little reluctant to speak but stopped.
Ye Xinghui waved his hand: "Director Li, I believe in your skills. This TV series has just premiered, so I won't be so anxious. The fairy tale film "Zhu Xian" is relatively slow to be popular. I think there is a lot of room for later ratings to increase."
"I understand, but I'm just feeling up and down." Li Jiaqi said with a wry smile.
"Let's have some tea."
Ye Xinghui poured her a cup of tea.
"Thanks!"
After Ye Xinghui's comfort, Li Jiaqi felt much better.
The two were chatting here.
But the Internet became lively.
Netizens who watched two episodes of "Zhu Xian" last night expressed their love for this TV series, but those who didn't watch it yesterday, or who changed the channel after a glance, believed that this drama could not receive high ratings at all.
A netizen said: "I watched "Zhu Xian" for nearly 2 hours last night, with two episodes in total. Overall, it's pretty good. Unfortunately, there are only two episodes. It would be great if I could watch a few more episodes. Zhang Xiaofan in it is a bit stupid, and Lin Jingyu is pretty good!"
"What a f*ck, I changed the channel after a glance. The little brat is in the village. What's so good about it? It's so miserable."
"That's right, although it feels like cultivating immortals, when you see it, you can always feel an old-fashioned smell!"
"It would be fine if Zhao Qiaoqiao appeared first, but I feel that Wang Jie can't hold on!"
“…”
Influenced by the ratings of "Zhu Xian", many netizens used this as an excuse to criticize "Zhu Xian", and even many people who had never watched it were following it.
At the same time, many media have also joined in seeing this phenomenon!
"The reputation of the traditional fairy tale "Zhu Xian" has dropped sharply, and the audience has lost confidence in it!"
"The audience was disappointed with "Zhu Xian" and believed that the acting skills of the male lead Wang Jie have become the biggest failure!"
"Li Jiaqi's work that has worked hard for a year has failed. 17% of the first box office is difficult to bear the banner. Will the first TV series after Xinghui Pictures go public and suffer a tragic defeat?"
"Everyone in the industry said that in addition to the considerable investment in "Zhu Xian", there is a big problem in choosing other actor roles!"
The media joined in and immediately ignited the fire in the hearts of domestic netizens.
...
Suicheng Satellite TV.
Chu Yue walked around the film buying department, and then stared at the speeches of netizens online, feeling so panicked. Although she bought the second round of "The Legend of Chu Qiao", if the reputation of "Zhu Xian" is over, then the future of "The Legend of Chu Qiao" will also have problems.
"Chu Yue, what are you doing?" Du Weixin pushed the door and walked in.
"Du Tai."
Chu Yue looked up.
"Okay, I know you are worried that the matter of "Zhu Xian" will cause us to be affected, but even if it can be damaged, it means losing some money. There is no need to make a fuss. There are so many film and television dramas that have been expected this year, and we cannot guarantee it!"
Du Weixin comforted him.
Chu Yue's anxious mentality has improved a little.
"Actually, our side is pretty good. The one that should be upset now is Xiangnan Satellite TV!" Du Weixin said.
"Xiangnan Satellite TV?"
Chu Yue understood a little. Xiangnan Satellite TV spent a lot of money to win "The Legend of Chu Qiao" two days ago. Suicheng Satellite TV was much worse than it. Even if the ratings of "The Legend of Chu Qiao" are really bad in the future, Suicheng Satellite TV will lose less than Xiangnan Satellite TV.
In fact, Du Weixin really made a name for it.
As soon as Chen Qiuming of Xiangnan TV learned about the ratings of "Zhu Xian", he called Qin Sicheng to the office and criticized him. Although it was not like Lu Dongliang, it was almost the same. In the end, Qin Sicheng patted his chest and promised that "The Legend of Chu Qiao" would be fine, so he was let go.
When leaving the Director's office, Qin Sicheng was still scared.
It is impossible to say that he is not worried about "The Legend of Chu Qiao", but he is more optimistic about himself, and "The Legend of Chu Qiao" will definitely work!
When he bought back the film, he was also looking back at the plot of "Zhu Xian". He was a little confused. This drama is obviously quite good, but why is the ratings far lower than the average ratings of Star Hui Pictures TV series!
"Maybe the expectation is too high."
Qin Sicheng sighed secretly.
However, just when industry insiders were lamenting the situation of "Zhu Xian", "Avengers" was released worldwide at 6 pm this afternoon. The outside of the cinemas in major cities across the Tang Dynasty were crowded with people, and many movie fans called their friends to watch it. Although the scale was not as terrifying as "Avatar", it was far more popular than other movies of the same period.
Tianjin City, Tenglong International Cinema.
A young man about twelve years old was holding a figure of Thor's "Wang Xiaoke". Next to him was his parents who had booked tickets online before. After coming to the cinema, he walked in directly.
There are many movie fans of this age, and everyone's eyes are filled with joy, as if they can't wait.
Soon, the No. 2 cinema was filled with fans and closed the door. The security guards guarding the door started chatting.
"It seems that "Avengers" is quite popular. There are so many people. I guess Hall 2 will be full." said a security guard.
"Absolutely, not only our hall, I watched it just now, and there were a lot of people in the other halls. I guess the box office of this movie will definitely not be low." The person next to me responded.
"Starlight Pictures is so awesome!"
Just as the two were chatting around at the door, waves of exclamations rang out in the cinema.
As the security guards of the cinema, the two of them looked at each other, and their eyes were filled with clarity.
Whether a movie is popular or not or not has a reputation, it is mostly up to the audience to reflect. If the comedy does not laugh and the science fiction drama has no surprise, then this movie is probably cold. If everything goes along, it will not be surprising that the box office is high.
In addition, if the production is well-made and satisfy the appetite of movie fans, the reputation will naturally increase.
