Chapter 265
Chapter 265 Sea Pianist Released, Polarized Word of Mouth
The system rewards were issued in advance, which Xu Mu had never encountered before.
However, this time the reward seems to be only half.
Because, the next movie script was not rewarded to him.
It is estimated that the script of the next movie will not be given to him until the movie is finished.
Of course, this skill reward was also expected by Xu Mu.
No surprises, it really is piano skills.
However, Xu Mu didn't go out of his way to find a place to show off his master-level piano skills.
After all, now that filming is over, there's no need to try it out.
At the end of July, all the post-production of Sea Pianist was completed.
Samples are also quickly sent to relevant departments for review.
Not only that, Xu Mu also signed up for the film Sea Pianist to participate in the International Film Festival.
August 8th.
This day is a good day.
Xu Mu's Sea Pianist is also released today.
The summer file is a time when domestic movies gather.
Because there are no Hollywood blockbusters released in the summer file.
Domestic film protection month, that's not just for fun.
On this day, there are only 3 movies released in the same period.
Although the summer schedule is very tempting, everyone postponed the release date after seeing Xu Mu's movie.
Some movies that were originally released in the summer file were postponed to the National Day file.
Of course, this is also good news for them.
After all, the National Day file is also a good time, isn't it.
Sea Pianist has 2 action films and 1 animation film released at the same time.
Among them, there is no need to guess, the only opponents of Xu Mu's new movie are these two action movies.
And cartoons have no competition with Xu Mu because of their different audiences.
It was also for this reason that the other party chose to release Xu Muxin's movie at the same time.
As for the 2 action movies, they are all Hong Kong movies.
That is Hong Kong movies, otherwise, who would dare to release Xu Mu's movies at the same time?
Hengcheng Cinema.
Xu Mu bought the tickets in advance, ready to experience the advanced special effects of the system for himself.
After all, whether the special effects are good or not, you have to experience it in a movie theater to know.
Moreover, he came here this time to see everyone's impressions of the movie.
After all, this movie is not a commercial film, and there are not so many bells and whistles.
Moreover, there are not many audiences for literary films.
Crucially, The Pianist on the Sea is still a film story that takes place abroad.
Therefore, due to the combination of various reasons, Xu Mu has no idea.
He didn't know if domestic audiences would buy it.
Although with his enthusiasm now, the movie tickets for the first day have already been sold out.
However, who knows what the audience will think after watching the movie.
Will they like this movie?
I don't know all of this yet.
This is one of the reasons why Xu Mu came to watch the movie in person.
At 10:30, Xu Mu followed the team into the screening hall.
After finding his seat and sitting down, he quietly waited for the movie to start.
Most of the people around come together, some are couples, some are friends, and some are family members.
After the big guys sat down, they all discussed the movie in low voices.
They are all looking forward to what kind of movie this will be.
Will it surprise them?
Ten minutes later, the ad was played and the movie officially started.
The movie Sea Pianist is played by a trumpet player.
After he fell down, he had to pawn his trumpet.
In the music equipment store, he finally played a piece of trumpet music, which was unexpectedly the same as the piece in the record collected by the boss.
Thus, the storytelling begins.
After the movie officially started, the scene was still very spectacular.
After all, Xu Mu used thousands of extras and took many shots before this shot was over.
And in the end, it's just a few seconds.
Xu Mu shot many scenes in the movie strictly according to the script.
So the effect shown is not very different from the original movie.
Except for the actors and piano pieces, everything else is basically the same.
When Xu Mu watched this movie, he completely regarded himself as an audience.
The story, though without intense conflict.
However, it has a unique appeal.
At least, Xu Mu thought so.
Xu Mu also liked the performance of the protagonist 1900 in the movie.
And the reason why this movie can become a classic is that 1900 is indispensable.
He is different from ordinary people.
There is a unique aura about him.
You can see the difference from a distance.
And when he plays the piano, it is another kind of beauty.
Extreme, serious, and integrated with the piano.
Xu Mu sat below, followed the movie, feeling the life of 1900.
Of course, when watching a movie, the special effects of the movie also brought Xu Mu a strong experience.
100 million special effects, it really wasn't a joke.
While watching the movie, Xu Mu also looked around to observe the reaction of the audience.
Everyone was stunned by the special effects.
2 hours passed quickly.
At the end of the movie, the lights in the auditorium were turned on, and the audience left one after another.
However, some viewers did not stand up immediately, but stared blankly at the big screen.
It seems that they cannot accept this ending.
After walking out of the screening room, Xu Mu found a place to solve the lunch problem for an afternoon.
After all, it's almost a little bit past the end of the movie.
My stomach is already growling with hunger.
After ordering, Xu Mu found a quiet corner to have lunch.
While eating, he took out his mobile phone and began to scan the news and comments related to Sea Pianist.
Although the ratings of MovieNet have not been officially released, the ratings of some viewers and some film critics have already come out.
Audience 20190115 five-star evaluation: A very good movie, 1900 is really good. The movie is very deep and worth watching.
Audience 14120413 five-star evaluation: I like this movie very much, and I give it full marks. First of all, the male protagonist of this movie is so handsome playing the piano, I didn't expect the piano music to be so good. Facing the waves, wind and rain, playing piano music.
He treats the cause purely, and treats the world purely.
Many viewers, after watching this movie, gave it a five-star rating.
However, there are also quite a few people who directly gave negative reviews after watching Sea Pianist.
The audience Nanshan one star commented: What kind of movie plot, I can't understand it at all, it doesn't make sense at all!
The audience's Misty Rain In Jiangnan commented on half a star: It's not good to watch, I just slept in the movie theater for two hours.
Audience Lu Xingya Yixing commented: It's too ugly, it keeps playing the piano, and there is no storyline.
The audience was full of two-star comments: It's like plain boiled water, it's not good-looking at all. When I watched it, I felt that the time was too difficult, and it was finally over.
Like the audience who liked Sea Pianist, those who didn't like it didn't like it very thoroughly.
Not only is the score very low, but the film review is even more concise.
This movie is so boring that I want to sleep.
After Xu Mu saw these ratings and comments, he was not surprised.
Because this movie, if you don't watch it carefully, it will be really boring.
However, to Xu Mu's surprise, he also saw a film review written by a familiar film critic after watching the film.
That's right, this person is the well-known film critic Hailing.
To be honest, I am looking forward to Xu Mu's new movie, but at the same time I am not looking forward to it.
His previous films were full of strong commercial atmosphere.
However, fortunately, the story is still interesting, and it will not be too disappointing.
Whether it's Manslaughter or other movies, I can only say that it's not bad in my eyes.
However, what I didn't expect was that his new movie Sea Pianist gave me a different surprise. I didn't expect that he could make such an excellent literary film.
1900, the protagonist of the movie, to be honest, he is the most impressive male protagonist I have ever seen.
He has a very high talent for the piano. It can be said that he is a genius. However, a genius, in fact, a genius is indeed the most unfortunate person in the world.
People will be attracted to you when the piano sound starts. However, after the piano sound ends, they will leave again.
1900 was lonely. He had no friends or family. However, he was not lonely. He had a piano that accompanied him all his life.
I won't go into details about the story in the movie to avoid spoilers. However, I still want to tell you about the end of the movie.
I like this ending very much.
Yes, I like it very much.
Although his ending is different from our traditional concept, I have seen his small world in 1900.
.
In the end, I give this movie a 9.8.
As for why 0.2 points are deducted, it is also because of the ending. Although I like this ending, I don't want to see this ending either.
Well-known film critic Hailing commented on Xu Mu's new movie Sea Pianist at length.
It is not difficult to see from the film reviews that the other party likes this movie very much.
Also because the movie had just been released, he was worried about spoilers, so he didn't comment on many things.
However, this can't stop the other party from liking the movie.
Crucially, he finally gave the film a score of 9.8.
This is already a high score among high scores.
In Hailing's previous film reviews, it is rare to have such a high score.
One o'clock at night.
Soon, the box office data for the first day will be released.
The box office with the most box office on the first day was undoubtedly Xu Mu's Sea Pianist, with a box office of 45 million.
However, Xu Mu was not very satisfied after seeing the box office data.
how to say.
If the subsequent box office is similar, and considering that the box office of later movies will become lower and lower.
In other words, Xu Mu probably won't make any money.
Even, you may lose money.
You said, how could he be satisfied in this situation?
The point is, after watching the box office on the first day of the movie, Xu Mu also looked at the ratings on the movie website.
Movie Network's professional rating is only 8.2 points.
That's right.
This score also greatly exceeded Xu Mu's expectations.
Because this rating is really too low!
Sea Pianist, how could it only have a score of 8.2?
Xu Mu took a look at the comment area, and basically scored 9 out of 10 for those he liked.
But those who don't like it are basically 1 point and 2 points.
Therefore, the final score of the movie is not very high.
If this situation is followed, the ratings of the movie will only get lower and lower.
This also means that the reputation of Sea Pianist will not be very good.
In this situation, Xu Mu didn't know what to do.
Because, according to this situation, the movie is likely to hit the street.
Sure enough, when the movie box office data came out the next day, the movie box office of Sea Pianist was only 32 million.
Compared with the first day, it is 13 million less.
This is a dangerous signal.
The second action film Chasing the Tiger is catching up, and the box office of the film has reached 30 million.
There is only a difference of 2 million in the box office of Xu Mu's movie.
Moreover, the reputation of the other party's movie is much better than that of Sea Pianist.
At least in terms of plot, the evaluation is much higher.
This situation not only stunned Xu Mu, but also dumbfounded many directors in the entertainment industry.
What's the situation?
Xu Mu's new movie is not working anymore?
On the third day, the single-day box office of the Hong Kong film Chasing the Tiger officially surpassed Xu Mu's Sea Pianist.
Even the box office of the other two films is catching up with Sea Pianist.
A hotel box.
Director Li, have you looked at the recent box office statistics?
Look, what's the matter?
Haha, that kid Xu Mu's new movie seems to be no good. Whether it's box office or word of mouth, it's dropped drastically.
Hahaha, I saw it. Unexpectedly, he also has today.
I see, this is normal. Tell me, he made a literary film in order to win the best director award. Besides, it's a foreign film. Tell me, can his film not hit the market?
Yeah, I thought I made a few movies that did well at the box office, so I drifted away. Now it's okay, I'm going to stumble!
Come on, let's toast to this festive event!
Come on, cheers.
Li Hua, director of Tianyu, and the others naturally saw the situation of Xu Muxin's movie.
When they saw it, they couldn't help but burst out laughing.
After all, they were very happy to see Xu Mu's movie stumble.
This time, this Xu Mu is finally about to suffer!
Let him be so arrogant before.
Well now, meet Waterloo!
What is not good to shoot, I have to make a literary film.
Do you think anyone can make a literary movie?
The dismal box office situation of Sea Pianist really made Xu Mu feel very dizzy.
For the past few days, he has been thinking about how to deal with this situation.
He even thought of making a big hype to boost the box office figures a bit.
However, Xu Mu thought about it for a long time, but he didn't know how to hype it up.
This is a headache.
Could it be that his movie is really going to hit the street?
Can not be done!
If he really hit the street, he would lose a lot of small targets!
He can take it if he loses a little money.
But he couldn't bear to lose several small targets all at once.
He even dared not be so straightforward when making movies in the future.
However, is there any way to reverse this situation?
While thinking hard, Xu Mu suddenly thought of a solution.
However, he was a little entangled, could the method he thought of really save the dismal movie box office?
