Chapter 875: "Horror Live"
Park Ji-hoon was seen spending nearly half an hour in the Girls' Generation dormitory last night and taking pictures. Pen Fun Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info Although he was far away, he could still be recognized as him, and this news was everywhere on the Internet this morning.
Late at night, a man goes to the girls' dormitory and stays for half an hour, no matter what he does, it is easy to provoke reverie.
After Yu Li and others heard about it from their agent, they called Park Ji-hoon as soon as possible. Originally, Park Ji-hoon didn't want to enter the dormitory, but he was forcibly invited by others and others, and in the event of such an accident, he naturally had to take the initiative to take responsibility.
Although it was just a supper together, and the nine of them were there, the rumors on the Internet, sometimes the more ridiculous they were, the faster and more widespread they spread.
"Didn't you take a photo last night, pick a few and post them on the Internet. Park Ji-hoon understood what Yo-ri meant, eating supper together is nothing, it is worried that fans and netizens will explore deeper things - what kind of relationship is worthy of Park Ji-hoon personally buying supper to the door? Yoo Li means to make this person herself.
"Hmm. Yuli replied softly.
Talking to Park Ji-hoon is easy. It's not that he can't think of such a way, but he always has to inform him, and sure enough, he brought it up himself.
"Call me again if there's any surprise. Park Ji-hoon said.
Every morning, he ponders the day's shooting, including his own lines.
"Well, oppa pays attention to his body. Yuli whispered, "I'm hanging." ”
It seems to be an ordinary advice, but it has a strong sense of truth.
Listening to the sound of the phone hanging up, Park Ji-hoon was in a trance for nearly a minute before he gathered his thoughts and focused on the script again.
Sure enough. After several people uploaded photos. The situation was quickly brought under control. The gossip has been greatly reduced, and there is no need for Park Ji-hoon to show up to explain anything.
Early in the morning of June 10, Yuli returned to the set.
The filming of "Pirates" ended this month. Adequate preparation and two-line shooting saved a lot of time.
In contrast, this movie uses a lot of special effects, and post-editing will be more troublesome.
After knowing the bottom of his heart, Park Ji-hoon finally restrained his emotions. The ground pounced on the shooting. The best way to be lazy is to work hard.
During this period, "The Watchers" exceeded 5.5 million moviegoers a month after its release, becoming the third largest film in 2013 after "The Gift of Room Seven" and "Berlin".
In addition to its own quality and company publicity, it is also inseparable from the charm of the leading actors. As early as when the number of moviegoers exceeded 3 million, Zheng Yusheng said that if the number of moviegoers exceeded 5 million, an audience member would be chosen to date her, and Han Hyo-joo said that he would give the audience a T-shirt with his name brand when he starred in "Runningman". Lee Jun-ho also said that he would eat popcorn and watch movies with the audience.
Unfortunately, the film has limited potential. The results are not strong enough, and the 5.5 million moviegoers have almost reached the limit, and there is still room for growth of about 200,000 at most - the number of screens and the attendance rate are falling sharply.
As for "Catch That Guy", although the reputation is excellent, the final box office barely exceeded 2.1 million.
However, "Horror Live" has successfully taken over the baton.
N.E.W has already announced its plans for three films in the summer, and "The Watchers" has made a good start, which has achieved a very good publicity effect for the subsequent "Horror Live".
However, due to the theme of the movie, the results of "Horror Live" after its premiere were not good, and the pre-sale results have been hovering around fifth and sixth, and the rating on Naver was initially only in the early 5s.
A lot of viewers weren't too interested in this dull movie with not many scene transitions.
At this time, the word-of-mouth and popularity accumulated by "The Monitors", as well as the reputation of N.E.W itself, played a very key role, and there are still many viewers attending the paid adaptation meeting! In the entertainment industry, this is a very rare thing, because most of the current audiences are very impetuous, and it is difficult to calm down to enjoy a movie, and sometimes some irresponsible comments can even ruin an otherwise good movie.
It's as if fans have a higher tolerance for celebrities than for young artists who have just debuted, and a steady stream of audiences enter the theater and participate in the commentary.
On Naver, the score of "Horror Live" started from more than 5 points, reaching 7.58 before the official release, and the pre-sale score also jumped to the first place in one fell swoop!
On June 19, "Horror Live" was officially released, with 673 screens across the country, and the number of viewers on the first day was 214935, with a total of 342,000 people.
The paid test screening results were too good, resulting in the release of the movie two days earlier.
On June 20, the number of moviegoers was 293,000, with a total of 63.5 people.
On June 21, the number of moviegoers was 341,000, with a total of 976,000.
On Saturday, June 22, the number of moviegoers was 441,000, with a total of 1.417 million.
On Sunday, June 23, the number of moviegoers was 418,000, with a total of 1.835 million.
It's another "Watchers"-level movie!
In the first week of its release, it unceremoniously occupied the first place!
Of course, it also has a lot to do with the poor performance of movies in the same period. The Hollywood movie "Superman: Man of Steel" in the Superman series barely exceeded 1.2 million viewers in the first week of its release, with many negative reviews, while the movie "The Last Battle", adapted from the best-selling novel by Max Brooks, exceeded 1.5 million viewers in the first week of its release. In contrast, the performance of South Korean local films is too sluggish, and the horror film "The Doctor", which caused a lot of talk at last year's Busan Film Festival, was officially released after more than half a year, but only 30,000 viewers entered the first weekend and two days, which is similar to "The Watchers", which is about to end its release, and the Sino-Korean film "Break Up Contract" has also been ignored after its release.
In addition, the movie "Thecall", also produced by N.E.W, attracted 51,246 viewers into theaters in the first week of release, although it was a huge difference from the top three, but it still ranked 4th in the box office list that week!
Moreover, corresponding to the box office results, the reputation of "Horror Live" is also excellent!
"90 minutes that make you breathless!"
"This is the best movie I've seen this year! 90% of the content takes place in a cramped and closed live broadcast studio, and there are only a few characters who appear, and the main channel for the protagonist to communicate with the outside world is a live telephone, and the TV surveillance screen in the studio constitutes an extension of the scene. It is in this almost enclosed space that the director has a good grasp of the details and rhythm, so that the audience's emotions are unconsciously driven by the plot, the rhythm is constantly accelerated by the dialogue, and the story is written with twists and turns......"
"Ha Jung-woo's acting skills are really outstanding! In such a small-scale movie, the protagonist's demeanor and expression have become the biggest attraction of the film, and the audience needs to intuitively understand the inner changes of the characters from the character's demeanor and expression......
From the "dull" at the test screening to the almost one-sided praise now, "Horror Live" has bloomed with unparalleled charm!
Especially among professional film critics, the film has a high rating of 8.62!
For a movie with such a theme to achieve such results, I have to say that the director and the protagonist have played a vital role!
Not to mention Ha Jung-woo's acting skills, he can almost be said to be a representative of Korean acting.
The director, screenwriter, and editor of this film are all handled by Kim Byung-woo alone, and in the eyes of N.E.W and Park Ji-hoon, he is a more rare talent than Ha Jung-woo! It's a pity that the two sides are only cooperating once, and Kim Byung-woo refuses to join N.E.W. This is not unrelated to his character, his first little-known movie "A Play in a Play", he was the one who took over the production, directing, screenwriting, editing, etc. If it weren't for the failure of his first film and the financial difficulties, his film would not have cooperated with N.E.W.
That's the only fly in the ointment.
But Park Zhixun did not despise him because of this, on the contrary, he also released "Horror Live" in the summer and made every effort to promote it, which won an excellent reputation in the company and even the entire circle!
......
June 27th.
Park Ji-hoon and Yoo Li finished filming "Pirates" and returned to Seoul together.
The crew still has some scattered shots that need to be reshot, but there are no two people, and it will not be officially completed until July.
Yu Li lost a lot of weight, and after saying goodbye to the staff, she got into Park Ji-hoon's nanny car, and immediately relaxed, stretched her legs, leaned on the seat with a big grin, her arms hanging down at her sides, her mouth slightly open, and she refused to move again.
Judging from the weight and difficulty of shooting, she is even worse than Park Ji-hoon.
"The teeth turned white. Park Ji-hoon's nerves, which had been tense, also relaxed, as if he had suddenly unloaded a thousand pounds of heavy burden, and said suddenly after the car started.
Yori didn't react at first, she didn't even want to move her brain lazily, and after a while, she suddenly raised her hand and slapped Park Ji-hoon on the thigh.
"Smack!" Park Ji-hoon's shorts, this slap slapped firmly on the flesh, very loudly.
"You want to murder!" Park Ji-hoon exclaimed after a soft groan.
"I didn't use any strength, I just let my hands fall freely, who ......knows" Yoo Li was also startled, glanced sideways at Park Ji-hoon's thighs, stuck out her tongue embarrassedly, and explained.
"I'll give you a free fall too?" Park Ji-hoon said, raising his hand.
"Don't!" she cried out softly, holding her legs together and protecting her hands with her hands.
She was also wearing shorts.
Fortunately, Park Ji-hoon just scared her.
"What gift is OPPA going to give to Xiaoxian?" asked Yori as she changed the subject.
Tomorrow is Seo Hyun's birthday.
Unexpectedly, Park Ji-hoon showed a slightly helpless expression on his face.
"What's wrong?" asked Yuli as she sat up straight when she saw it.
The two of them won't have another conflict, will they? )
