Chapter 593: Yitian Takes Off

"Grandma" is not long, only a little over an hour.

After the initial foreshadowing and atmosphere creation, the second half of the film begins to enter the stage of exploring and unlocking mysteries, and the various plot twists are jaw-dropping.

After a series of horrifying plots, there is a jaw-dropping open ending.

All the foreshadowing and clues laid out before converge into an ambiguous ending...

This ending left countless viewers in front of their computers and mobile phones a little confused.

When I watched the movie before, everyone was scared to the point of having chills running down their backs. After finally making it to the end, I felt the urge to go back and watch it again.

What does this ending mean?
This issue immediately became a hot topic on the entire social media platform.

"So what does this ending mean? How did grandma die?"

"Why do I feel like grandma isn't dead at all? Instead, these villagers look more like ghosts..."

"Stop talking nonsense. If all the villagers are ghosts, then the previous plot won't connect at all!"

"Have you never thought of a possibility - the person who really died was actually Xu Hongdou herself! Think carefully about the meaning of the camera position at the beginning!"

"Fuck, now that you put it that way... this camera position represents Xu Hongdou's own spiritual consciousness?!"

"Fuck, is this okay?"

"That doesn't make sense. Doesn't Xu Hongdou often go out during the day? If this is a ghost, it doesn't make sense at all!"

"My friend above, think carefully about why her phone has no signal. Is it possible that something on her body has a forced seal, thus blocking the phone signal as well?"

"That's not right. If that's the case, why did grandma say that the cell tower renovation caused the lack of signal?"

"Is it possible that it is because..."

A storm of discussion has been set off on all social media platforms, and related posts can be seen everywhere.

Seeing this scene, Zhou Hao, who had been worried for a long time, let out a long sigh of relief.

It should be passed!

Although it may not be considered excellent, it is at least above the passing score!

If it was really hopelessly bad, everyone wouldn't be discussing the possible endings, but would be posting curse messages instead.

Although there are sporadic voices now expressing that it is ugly and meaningless... they are only a minority after all, and that is enough.

After drinking a glass of water to calm himself, he called Liu Wei to express his gratitude.

The suggestion for this open ending was given to him by Liu Wei.

Many times, this so-called open ending is actually a way of taking shortcuts, which can to a certain extent avoid the flaws and inaccuracies in the film's plot line.

As long as there are enough debates and interpretations, people will not pay too much attention to the logical flaws in the plot.

On the contrary, if you give a clear and complete ending, then everyone will naturally go back and ponder the previous plot, and it is very likely that they will find various logical collapses...

Many new directors like to use open endings, and this is a big part of the reason. Soon, he also received data reports from Youying.

Two hours after its release, the number of paid viewers had exceeded 230 million, generating a total box office share of 1176.6 million!
The numbers alone may not be surprising, but considering the price of the tickets and the cost of production...it's a huge profit!
And this is just the result for two hours. When the 24-hour box office results come out, it will probably be another amazing record!

Less than five minutes after receiving the news, the official Weibo account of Hongmeng mobile phone released a congratulatory poster expressing its pride and showing off.

After all, this film was shot with their mobile phones... This is more hardcore than any advertisement!

In these two hours, not only the box office data of "Grandma" soared, but also the sales and search popularity of Hongmeng mobile phones...

Seeing the rising number of orders, everyone in Hongmeng’s marketing department was grinning so hard that their faces almost broke.

This spokesperson is a brilliant choice!
Zhou Hao slept particularly comfortably that night.

The next night, he got the first-day box office results of "Grandma" on time.

The total number of moviegoers was 424 million, and the cumulative box office revenue was 2374.7 million yuan.

This result is actually slightly lower than the estimated data given by Youying yesterday. In their opinion, if more than 230 million tickets were sold in the first two hours, then the first day should start with at least five million!
But Zhou Hao himself knew very well that it was difficult.

To put it bluntly, this film is a work for fans.

The subject matter itself is not the kind that can blow up the box office, and the leading role is still carried by Xu Lingyue... There is no big star at the level of a movie emperor to support it. Even though both Youying and Hongmeng are promoting it vigorously, the base is still too small after all.

Moreover, the previous pre-sale activities for movie tickets have actually overdrawn a large part of the potential audience. Die-hard fans have already bought their tickets and are waiting to unlock them online, and the rest are just onlookers.

Therefore, the fact that 424 million people watched the movie on the first day was already beyond Zhou Hao's own expectations.

The over 20 million box office revenue earned on the first day not only easily paid back the investment but also created ample room for profit... I couldn't ask for more, I'm very satisfied.

As for the disappointment on the part of Youying... let them do whatever they want. A movie with such a low budget can achieve such results. If they still think it is not enough to make money... then just go and have fun on your own. I won’t keep you company!

After finishing this movie, he finally had the time and energy to update "The Heaven Sword and the Dragon Saber".

The plot of the six major sects besieging Bright Summit made all the book fans extremely happy, especially when Zhang Wuji appeared with the Nine Yang Magic Art and the Great Shift of the Universe... a group of rich readers were almost going crazy with the rewards!
Even those readers who had previously complained about Zhou Zhiruo's backstabbing plot have now kept their mouths shut.

Cool and it's over!
Then, right after the Battle of Bright Summit, there is another series of exciting stories - Zhao Min sends people to kill people everywhere, stir up disputes in the martial arts world, and directly targets Shaolin and Wudang.

Zhang Wuji feared that Wudang would also be murdered, so he disguised himself and hurried to Wudang Mountain, becoming a little Taoist boy beside his uncle Yu Daying, and secretly learned the secrets of Zhang Sanfeng's Tai Chi...

Then when Zhao Min brought a group of masters to provoke and specifically challenged the seriously injured Zhang Sanfeng, the little Taoist boy Zhang Wuji took the initiative to volunteer to fight.

It was a standard plot of pretending to be a pig and eating a tiger, which made the readers very happy and another wave of rewards took off.

As of this point, when Zhou Hao looked at the performance of this book again... he found that the average subscription across all platforms combined had exceeded 200,000.

This data made him gasp.

Scary, so scary.

Although this data looks very impressive now, the hidden dangers that come with it are also considerable.

Once those disgusting plots come, I'm afraid there will be another riot...
