Chapter 51 National Day, the first day of release
October st.

On the day of premiere.

The whole country is paying attention.

Today, a total of four movies were released, including three films by big directors and big productions. Before the premiere, the media hyped it up, saying that this was the strongest National Day box office in recent years.

Not only does it feature Lu Zhuofeng, one of the top three directors in China, but also the top male and female stars of Coconut Mango, who have been in the limelight in recent years, and the veteran international female action star Cai Wenlan. It is definitely a fight between two dragons and two tigers.

The main creative teams of "Glorious Times", "War" and "Funny Road" were interviewed yesterday, and all claimed that their only competitors were two other companies.

"All or Nothing" seems to have been ignored intentionally or unintentionally.

-

The first group of audiences arrived at the cinema early in the morning.

In front of the ticket counter.

"What are we looking at?"

"Let's watch 'Funny Road Show'. It's a holiday now and I don't want to be educated. Let's watch something relaxing first."

"Huh? Didn't you say you wanted to watch All or Nothing when you were watching Cheng Cheng's live broadcast?"

"I was just kidding, why do you take it seriously? No one's money comes from the wind, I was just teasing him, anyone who really goes to watch "All or Nothing" is stupid!"

"Hahahaha, that's true. It's okay for fun, but forget it if you want to spend money. 'Funny Road Show' is good. It's a coconut-filled movie. Watch it with your eyes closed."

"Well, I'll go buy the tickets, and you go buy two bottles of water. If we have time later, we can choose another movie from "Glorious Times" and "War."

"Sure. Although Lu Zhuofeng has not been doing well in recent years, his movies are still guaranteed to be good. They won't be that bad."

-

A group of little black people.

"I've already bought the ticket for the 1:20pm show."

"I bought two tickets too. I plan to go with my girlfriend. If she has any objections, I will break up with her!"

"Brother, you are a real man!"

"I envy you guys. I'm still working overtime today, so I can only go to support Brother Frog in the evening."

"No matter how Frog Brother's film is, I have to go and support him! What's wrong with a movie ticket? Go!"

"rush!"

Looking at the speeches of the little black guys in the group, Cheng Cheng was a little moved. The little black guys are really reliable and they will really help when there is something going on!

After speaking in the group and thanking Xiao Heizi, Cheng Cheng took out the good luck potion from the system inventory and chose to use it.

-

At this moment, Yan Gou'er, Wen Lian, Li Yang, Qi Hao, Beret, and everyone else were exposed, all paying attention to the real-time box office of "All or Nothing".

The fateful moment has arrived.

Whether you can find a way out or destroy all your hopes depends on today!

Shang Shi was a UP host in the film and television section of Bilibili. Early in the morning, he came to a nearby cinema and waited for admission.

But half an hour before the opening of "Glorious Times", the theater staff suddenly announced an unexpected situation:
Due to technical failure, there was a problem with the source of "Glorious Times", and "Glorious Times" could not be broadcast!
There was a burst of curses at the scene.

When I was injured, I rushed to the ticket counter and asked, "When can I watch the movie? I have already bought the movie tickets."

The ticket seller said regretfully, "Sir, we are unable to determine the specific time of restoration at this time. We are deeply sorry for this sudden technical problem. Please rest assured that we have urgently contacted the film company and will do our best to resolve this issue in order to resume the film as soon as possible. At the same time, we will provide a full refund service for the audience who have already purchased tickets for this movie. As compensation for your inconvenience, next time you come to buy movie tickets, we will provide you with a 50% discount on the original ticket price."

Shang Shi didn't have the patience to listen to her long story, so he asked directly: "What about "War"? Does "War" have the latest show time?"

The ticket seller was about to answer when she heard a voice coming from the headset. After a while, she said, "Sorry, you can't watch "War" for the time being."

When he was injured, he continued to ask, "What about 'Funny Road Show'?" A voice came from the headset again, and the ticket seller smiled bitterly and said, "'Funny Road Show' has also had problems."

The injured man said strangely: "Don't tell me that now there is only "All or Nothing" left!"

"Just a moment."

The ticket seller walked over to the side and communicated with the technician through the headset for a while. Then she returned to the ticket counter and said with a little pity, "It seems that there is only "All or Nothing" left. Do you want to watch it?"

When I was hurt, my lips moved, and I cursed in my heart:
What the fuck?!

"Glorious Era", "War", "Funny Road" are all unwatchable, and the only one left is the worst "All or Nothing". How the hell are you funny? !

The ticket seller said weakly, "Sir, why don't you just refund your ticket or go to a nearby cinema?"

When he was hurt, he gave up struggling: "Forget it, just give me a ticket for the latest movie "All or Nothing".

Anyway, he would watch whatever he wanted. His original plan was to watch "The Glorious Era" first, and then "War" and "Funny Road" to make a special for the National Day. He could watch "All or Nothing" or not.

In that case, let me first give a sharp review of "All or Nothing"!
Cheng Cheng, don't blame me, you brought this upon yourself!
-

At this time, this situation occurred in many cinemas across the country. Of course, there were not many such cinemas, probably only one or two out of a hundred cinemas, and they were all under the country's largest cinema chain, Quanzhou.

If it was a problem with Vance Pictures, some people would still suspect whether Jiang Wang did it on purpose, but if it happened across the continent, no one would think so!

Because two of the three films were invested by Quanzhou.

Who the hell would ruin their own business?!
-

Lu Zhuofeng was so angry that he jumped up and down, and even the wrinkles on his face appeared:
"What's going on with Quanzhou! Call them immediately. I want to see them solve the problem before noon!"

At this moment, the other two families were also in chaos, as anxious as ants on hot pan.

They don't understand, Quanzhou has been running a cinema chain for so many years! How could it make such a low-level mistake? !

Although the number of cinemas with problems is not large, the impact cannot be underestimated!

Especially on the premiere day of a movie, every minute and every second is crucial. It not only affects the box office on the premiere day, but also the future trend of the movie, and may even affect whether they can break the box office record!

But the good news is that this time the problems occurred to all three companies at the same time, and the other two did not take advantage of them.

what!
This seems like an opportunity!

After figuring this out, the director of War called a senior executive he knew at Quanzhou Films:
"Boss Ma, can you please help me and give priority to resuming the release of "War", and the release of "Glorious Times" and "Funny Road" should be delayed as much as possible. I won't let you help me in vain, the young handsome guy you liked before..."

-

At ten o'clock in the morning, Shang Shi and a group of "forced" audiences entered the screening room of "All or Nothing".

I found my seat in the dark, sat down, and waited for the commercial break to end and the movie to begin.

This sudden technical problem completely disrupted his plans and made him lose the prime time to upload videos and share them with his fans.

For a UP host like him in the film and television area, time is money.

Fortunately, the gimmick of "War, Glorious Times, and Funny Road Show are all not worth watching, only All or Nothing is worth watching" makes up for this.

He has already thought of the script.

When the video is uploaded, the comments will probably be filled with comments like "You are so miserable but I want to laugh", "A moment of silence", "Sympathy", "Pity"...

However, looking at the audience around him who had no expectations at all, he couldn't help but feel a little sympathy:
I'm here to review movies. I can make money no matter how bad the movie is. What are you guys here for? Are you here to eat shit?
I sent a message in the fan group, saying that I went to watch "All or Nothing" and turned off my phone when I was injured.

After a while, the advertisement ended and the movie began.

The theater fell silent in an instant. Regardless of whether or not everyone had high expectations for the movie, everyone was quite polite and waited quietly for the plot to unfold.

ps: Thanks to the uncle who sells ramen and the book friend 20190502171756294 for the reward of 100 Qidian coins. I wish the two big guys and all the big guys who support this book will become rich in 2024.
