Xiao Ge usually recommended movies based on genre, but today, he acted out of character and only recommended one movie. He even wrote a column for it!
It was obvious how much he valued Huo Yuanjia.
[How should I put it? In the beginning, I was like most people and did not have high hopes for Huo Yuanjia. After all, it was Director Li Tai's first movie and the actor was not a superstar. Although it had Y's support, Y did not participate in the filming. Hence, the anticipation for the movie was greatly reduced.
Later on, Huo Yuanjia's ratings dropped to the bottom of the same batch. That made me lose all hope for Huo Yuanjia. I was not planning to watch it, but yesterday, Y's words, 'Those who humiliate China, no matter how far away they may be!' moved me. In the end, I still decided to contribute my vote.
After entering the cinema, I originally wanted to watch for five minutes, then leave if it got boring. After five minutes, I wanted to watch for ten minutes. Then, until the end of the movie, I was reluctant to leave. At that moment, my mind was filled with Huo Yuanjia. The shock I felt was indescribable. I can only say that our country has its own pride! I'm proud of our country!
In this movie, I saw myself. Everyone's growth is divided into stages, and the final stage is to fight for our country!
I won't say much. To prevent spoilers, I strongly recommend Huo Yuanjia! Recommendation: Full stars plus one star!]
Once Xiao Ge's Weibo was posted, it immediately received countless replies and likes.
[Did Teacher Xiao Ge watch Huo Yuanjia too? I watched it too. It's really shocking!]
[Teacher Xiao Ge said what I wanted to say. This movie is really good. You'll regret not watching it!]
[I won't say much. Just two words. Strongly recommend!]
[Teacher Xiao Ge's summary is very incisive. Huo Yuanjia will show you the past of China and let you understand the Chinese spirit!]
[F * ck, stop talking. Do you think I don't want to watch Huo Yuanjia? I can't get a ticket!]
[Same to the previous poster. I just want to ask, why is Huo Yuanjia getting so few showtimes? It's a scam!]
[I've already sold out the tickets for the show three days later. What kind of shitty cinema is this? How can they arrange so many other lousy movies?!]
…
Very quickly, that Weibo post became a trending topic. Everyone wanted to support Y. Now that they heard that Huo Yuanjia was such a good movie, their hearts itched and they could not wait to watch Huo Yuanjia.
However, in almost all cinemas, Huo Yuanjia's screenings were limited to only one or two times a day. This was an international joke. Tickets were hard to come by!
The tickets for half a month were all sold out, and there were countless people clamoring for more showtimes for Huo Yuanjia.
Many people even called 123 * *, the consumer protection hotline to complain.
"Hello, this is the Consumer Protection Association. How can I help you?"
"I want to lodge a complaint against the cinema! I want to watch Huo Yuanjia, but the cinema doesn't even allow me to screen it. All they've arranged are crappy movies. This is an insult to us consumers! "
"Hello, this is the arrangement of the cinema. You can watch other movies first."
"I don't care, I want to watch Huo Yuanjia! The cinema was cheating! I want to lodge a complaint! "
…
No one expected Huo Yuanjia to be like a gust of wind, exploding in popularity in an instant.
In just one day, it went from 7.8 to 8.8, and that was under the circumstance that there were not many screenings.
God would never let down a good work.
A movie like Huo Yuanjia only needed an opportunity. Once the opportunity was ripe, it would rise in popularity in an instant!
And Ye Lingchen happened to provide that opportunity!
Many people had nothing to do because they could not watch Huo Yuanjia. With no other choice, they could only turn their attention to I am Hero.
Soon, another wave of popularity started, but this time, it was the opposite.
[F * ck! How can such a trashy movie get so many screenings? The cinema must be crazy!]
[From start to finish, the most shots were of Wu Han's face. Even when he's swallowing, there's a close-up of his Adam's apple. Is this a f * cking movie?! It's more like a portrait!]
[Is this a martial arts movie? I'm dying of laughter!]
[I'm curious how such a movie can have such a high rating. It's an insult to the entire film industry!]
[Motherf * cker, it's obvious that Wu Han manipulated votes for himself and purposely lowered Huo Yuanjia's rating. Shameless!]
[The film industry is ruined by a gigolo like Wu Han!]
[No wonder there aren't any good movies or dramas these days. It's all because of these sissies. Moreover, these sissies picked up the Sick Man of East Asia brand. I'm so pissed!]
[Let's not talk too much. Yesterday, I broke up with my girlfriend because of the debate over whether to support Wu Han or Y.]
[Previous poster, you're awesome. I support you!]
[That's a real man. Well done!]
…
Ye Lingchen had just gotten off the plane and turned on his phone. There were two missed calls.
It was from Li Tai.
Ye Lingchen replied to Li Tai.
"Young Master Ye, good news!" Li Tai's voice was filled with excitement. Ye Lingchen could even hear his sobbing. "The cinema has finally increased our screenings! From the original 5%, it's increased to 15%! "
Huo Yuanjia was the first movie he directed. That was why he put in a lot of effort. From the start of filming, he had been following along diligently. Being treated unfairly, Li Tai felt terrible. However, now that the situation had taken a turn for the better, it was only natural for him to be excited.
"Hmm? Is that so? "Ye Lingchen expressed his surprise.
The conditions for the cinema to increase the screenings were extremely stringent. Under normal circumstances, the screenings for a movie would only decrease. To increase the screenings, it would only happen when the box office had exploded by several times, to the point where the supply could not meet the demand!
"Young Master Ye, you didn't know? It's because of the video of the battle between Y and the Southeast Asian man yesterday. Many people came to watch our Huo Yuanjia! "Li Tai explained.
Ye Lingchen nodded in realization. He did not expect the video from last night to have such a strong effect on Huo Yuanjia. That was definitely a pleasant surprise.
"Moreover, with the increase in the number of people watching the movie, the reputation of our movie has also increased. The current rating is probably going to reach 9% soon! The number of people watching the movie will only increase! " Li Tai was as excited as a child. He had placed a lot of importance on this movie, and now he finally saw his success.
Apart from him, the entire crew was in a state of excitement. Before this, they were still in a state of helplessness. Unexpectedly, in a single night, there was a shocking reversal. Be it Li Jing or boxing champion Ali, they were all prepared to celebrate.
"Damn, I knew it. I'm a boxing champion. How can I lose to a sissy?!" Ali grinned and laughed heartily …
