Poverty alleviation variety show goes to the countryside, my talent can no longer be hidden

Chapter 686: Dog Tie Theory

During the May Day holiday, students and the working class, who had worked hard for half a year, got a rare chance to catch their breath, and the country welcomed a small peak in tourism.

At the same time, the annual May Day battle officially kicked off.

At 8 o'clock in the morning on May 1st, all participating companies could not wait to announce the first day's box office data in order to boost their momentum.

The first day's box office results were basically the same as the previously expected rankings.

"Operation Storm" grossed 1.37 million yuan in box office revenue in just six hours, topping the list.

Not only did the film have impressive first-day box office data, but it also had very good reputation. Almost all film critics and media people on the entire Internet were praising it, and unanimously praised it as a "textbook of commercial blockbusters."

In the scoring systems of major ticket purchasing platforms, the opening score of this film is also quite good, and the score of 9.7 is simply explosive.

There were no surprises in the second place either. "Lost and Love" earned 1.03 million yuan in box office in the first six hours on the first day.

Looking only at the first day box office, the gap between the first and second place is not that big. Plus, the film was already at a disadvantage in terms of screening schedules, so a group of fans and moviegoers started to get excited, saying that the box office potential of "Lost and Love" might even exceed that of "Operation Storm."

As long as the number of films is increased in the future, the box office will definitely surpass it!

"The Last Days" also firmly took the third spot, with a box office of 8143 million on the first day.

Just looking at the data, this result is already quite excellent.

But people in the industry are basically aware that the first-day box office is extremely inflated, and the actual number of moviegoers and attendance rate cannot be compared with the above two films at all.

There were already "ghost theaters" on the first day of the release, which is simply beyond description.

However, even so, the fans are still not satisfied, and they are frantically making their presence known on Weibo and Huaban to speak up for their brothers and sisters.

Sometimes they complained about too few screenings, sometimes they scolded the cinemas for giving them bad time slots, sometimes they started to diss the producers for not doing their job, and finally they even accused "Operation Storm" and "Lost and Love" of stealing box office revenue...

All kinds of bizarre and shocking remarks left the crowd of onlookers speechless.

This group of people are simply beyond the limit!

In fourth place, "Stone" earned 6211 million on its first day.

Pretty general data.

But if you consider the scheduling situation...it's a bit scary.

The first-day box office of "Operation Storm" of 1.37 million was based on more than 28% of the screening share!

The screening rate of "Stone" was only about 7%, but it grossed 6211 million at the box office!

The difference here is obvious at a glance!
What’s even more frightening is that all the major cinema chains arranged the worst screening rooms and time slots for “Stone”, which were basically the ones left over by the top three…

Under such circumstances, the film still managed to earn more than 60 million yuan on the first day, which is really impressive.

For many people who have just experienced the National Day box office battle, a familiar feeling arises from the bottom of their hearts.

This scene really seems familiar!

While struggling to keep up with the top three at the box office, the word of mouth for "Stone" has also been on the rise.

Huaban.com did not release the score as usual, but on major ticketing platforms, "Stone" has already delivered a good score, and it has also caused a lot of discussion on Weibo and other social media platforms. "Has anyone watched "Crazy Stone"? It's quite good!"

"I just finished watching it. It's quite funny, but the plot makes me feel a little dizzy and confusing."

"It's okay. This level of multi-line narrative is quite easy to understand."

"This director is really something. The way he handled the multiple narrative lines and the final explosion really showed his skill!"

"It's really amazing. The final part where the world line ends is simply a stroke of genius!"

"I laughed my ass off when I saw it in the cinema. It was so funny."

"The key is that I don't know most of the actors in this movie yet...but their acting skills are so amazing."

"If one soldier is bad, the generals will be bad too. As long as the director is good, the play will be good!"

"Director Zhang is good. He was the assistant director in Poetry before. He really has some talent."

"This movie is wonderful and worth watching twice. There are so many details hidden in it that I haven't fully understood yet."

"I also plan to watch it again, but the scheduling is really disgusting. The screenings of Stone are basically all midnight shows, which is unbearable."

"At least you have something to watch there. We don't have any shows here. They are all given to Operation Storm and Love and Anxiety."

"Damn, from what you guys said, it seems like a good show. I shouldn't have watched "Scarlet Heart" earlier. I almost fell asleep while watching it."

"Dude, are you crazy? You dare to rush into a movie that is star-studded by a popular celebrity? Isn't this just asking for trouble?"

"I can't help it. My blind date likes to watch it, so I can only accompany him."

"Brother, listen to my advice. If you meet a woman with this kind of aesthetic taste, run away quickly, otherwise you will most likely become her ATM machine for chasing stars!"

"Run quickly +1, this is a bloody lesson..."

It’s not enough to just praise the movie here. After returning from watching the movie, a group of fans all ran to Zhang Mo’s Weibo to give him their praises.

As a result, Zhang Mo directly updated a dynamic message: "The success of "Stone" has little to do with me. I just filmed it honestly according to the script... To put it bluntly, as long as you don't make trouble, it's not a problem to tie a dog to the director's seat."

In order to prove that what he said was true, he even posted a set of nine-grid photos of the script.

This set of script photos is not from "Stone", but from the short film "Poetry" that became a big hit last year. This is obviously to avoid spoilers as much as possible.

But through this set of script photos, it is enough for everyone to understand everything - the textual expression of the script is naturally impeccable, and the most terrifying thing is... the storyboards are so detailed that it is simply outrageous!
How each scene should be shot and what kind of frame the camera should use were all explained clearly, and the director didn't need to think about it himself...

It’s a beginner-level script with zero barriers to entry!

And if you look carefully at the finished film of "Poetry", it is exactly the same as the conception of these storyboards!
With a script of this quality, it's not easy to mess it up.

The seemingly exaggerated "dog tying theory" was immediately recognized by almost everyone.

Director Zhang has a point!
However, the curiosity of the crowd immediately followed - how on earth did "The Undocumented Crime" get ruined in the face of such a script? !
At this point, with every new masterpiece Zhou Hao produces, the stain of "The Undocumented Crime" becomes more and more glaring.

At this moment, Zhang Mo's "Theory of Tied Dogs" has magnified this stain countless times.

No one is satisfied with just complaining and regretting anymore. Now everyone just wants to see with their own eyes how the director behind the scenes can be worse than a dog? !
