With Chen Xiaolu by his side, he would be able to use the excuse of visiting classes to get into contact with some of the cast and celebrities.
Actually, with the original in the movie as a reference, it's easier to find the right person.
Ye Mo and Chen Xiaolu spent the past few days running back and forth between the production teams. By the end of the month, they had finally confirmed most of the characters.
If it weren't for Chen Xiaolu by their side, they would have thought that they had met a swindler!
On the last day of that month, Ye Mo and Chen Xiaolu returned to Jinning.
During this time, the movie "Living Burial" has also been on the Internet for a few days.
However, from the comments in the trailer, it seemed that everyone was not optimistic because there were no celebrities and the plot was very simple.
Many people were questioning whether this director, Ye Mo, was actually the singer, Ye Mo?
"It has been confirmed. The director of 'Living Burial' is the singer, Ye Mo."
"Being able to make a movie in two days, I really don't like the quality of the film."
"Singing is not bad, but once you become popular, you will immediately make a movie. That's not good!"
"Even he is starting to consume fans. This is such a disappointment."
Everyone was not optimistic about this movie and expressed that they wouldn't dare to test it out on themselves. If it wasn't for Ye Mo's reputation, no one would have paid much attention to it.
December 1st, early in the morning. Today was Saturday, so "Living Burial" was officially selling tickets at each of Star Path Entertainment's movie theaters.
11 in the morning was the first time, but the number of spectators added up to only 100 people from all of the courtyards.
This meant that the fans these days were more rational.
Ouyang Mu posted the box office statistics for the morning to Ye Mo and said, "The two matches for the afternoon are temporarily cancelled. Let's see how the situation is in the two matches tonight."
Seeing such a situation, Ye Mo did not give up. He believed that the situation would improve during the night.
However, the situation was not optimistic.
The first day's box office was only 5000!
The statistics were public, and most people were disappointed with Ye Mo. Some people felt that Ye Mo's attempt to consume his fans had finally paid off.
"Looks like it's a rotten film. Everyone disperse!"
"What a joke, the lowest box office in history!"
"What do you think about the boss of Star Path Entertainment?
"It's been a waste of time, since we've vacated an entire theater. Dozens of academy lines have been added up, making us earn less than a million yuan in one day!"
Zhang Yibo was relieved to see such a good box office. It was really too expensive to treat such a person as his opponent.
Ouyang Mu was also surprised to see this result.
However, movies like this one were produced and released quickly, so there was no systematic way to publicize them. It was normal to have these sort of results, so it depended on the feedback from those who had watched it before.
So he said to Ye Mo, "Let's see how the situation is on the second day. If we can't do it, we can only go online and invest too much into the movie theater."
"Alright!"
Although Ye Ran still had confidence, but with the current situation, he had no reason to force Ouyang Mu to play "Living Burial".
Then Ouyang Mu said, "Maybe we should make some compromises."
Of course, Ye Mo knew what Ouyang Mu meant by compromise. Besides, Ye Mo understood that for a movie like this, without the hype from the earlier period, the only way to attract the audience was to lower the price of the tickets.
"How low are you going to go?" Ye Mo asked.
"The average movie is 35 RMB. I'm going to reduce 'Living Burial' to 20 RMB."
If a 20 RMB movie ticket was still worth more than 10,000 RMB, then it wouldn't be profitable at all. Ouyang Mu took care of Ye Mo by letting Living Burial continue broadcasting for one more day.
However, Ye Mo wasn't doing it to earn money, so no matter how much the tickets cost, he could accept it.
However, this decision made many people feel that Ye Mo was laughable.
Because the production cost could be said to be the lowest in history, such an investment couldn't be refunded. It made those who saw the trailer disappointed by Ye Mo.
There weren't many people who were paying attention, so there weren't many people who were discussing about it.
However, there were quite a few articles on Ye Mo's new movie, "Today's headline", which was based on the law, clarifying the reason why Ye Mo's movie hit the street.
It's just a singer playing a movie across the border as soon as he gets hot, which is the inevitable cause of his failure.
The second was that the film took only two days to take shape from the beginning to the end.
This short production resulted in the screenplay being called only a draft, shooting and later use of the very tense, in this case the film details can not be effectively handled.
The conclusion was that:
Ye Mo was overly confident in his fan effect. He wanted to take advantage of the situation to earn money for his fans, but unfortunately, his fans were very rational now.
The reason Ye Mo made this decision was probably because he knew that his creative ability in the area of songs was in despair, so he was in a hurry to transform.
At the end of the article, he even said to Ye Mo like an old senior: "Read well, we'll wait for you at the construction site!"
This sort of evaluation appeared on the morning of the second day of filming.
Actually, the people who wrote the essays only wanted to try Ye Mo's popularity. After all, he had over a hundred million fans. When the fans found out that Ye Mo actually wanted to show them off, such articles would easily resonate with them.
While the number of articles being praised kept skyrocketing, the box office on the next morning was neither too hot nor too warm. Compared to yesterday, it had risen to 2,000 yuan.
Because it was reduced to 20 RMB, it could be sold for 2000 RMB. In fact, the viewing rate had greatly increased. As for why these people were selling it, no one knew.
But that would only be more disappointing.
"Ye Mo buried himself alive!"
This was the conclusion everyone came to before noon.
Ouyang Mu even wondered if he was really getting old.
I don't understand young people's tastes anymore.
Weren't all the young people these days going back to the topic?
Was "Living Burial" not content enough?
However, at noon the next day, things seemed to have turned for the better.
Jiang Wen suddenly posted on his Weibo a picture of the "Beanstalk" rating, with the details of "Living Burial" written on it.
9.2 points.
This was the score for "Living Burial".
"Pea Office" is a relatively authoritative film review website in China. People generally see the film before viewing, whether the film is worth to see the basis, 70% is to see the "Pea Office" top rating.
Who would have thought that Living Burial would get such a high score?
What was going on?
So everyone began to record the "Beanstalk" website to see other people's film reviews.
The following comments were as follows:
"Everyone, don't be deceived on the surface. This is the most shocking movie that I've seen in the past two years. Such a story can actually extend out from a small coffin."
"The horror and suffocation created by 'Living Burial' completely shocked me. From the first second of the movie to the last second, I didn't even have a chance to breathe."
"At first I thought about going in and getting some sleep, but in the end I was scared out of my wits.
"Living Burial" is one of the best suspenseful thrillers I've seen in recent years, and it's recommended that I try to get into the movie theater. "
If "Living Burial" really wasn't worth watching, the creators wouldn't have paid the troll army for it, because it would have been more expensive.
However, it was only the second day, yet he already had such a high score. Moreover, he was even sent away by Jiang Wen. This would be interesting.
By the time this Weibo post was posted, the box office of 'Living Burial' was still no more than 10,000, and the number of people watching the movie was very few. Even if half of the audience did not come up to comment, the remaining half actually gave 9.2 points.
This aroused an even greater urge to watch the movie.
At 2 PM, the pre-sale tickets for the two matches were sold out.
