The controversial May Day movie " There's Nothing That Can't Be Solved by Hot Pot " was released in Australia last week. It only earned US$719 at the box office in four days, which is equivalent to only 5,200 yuan in RMB. Even the domestic box office footage Less than.
"Hot Pot" has been very popular since its launch, and its launch and completion were very high-profile. First, it was reported that the filming of this movie only took 19 days, and then it was confirmed and withdrawn. After several twists and turns, the movie finally decided to officially meet everyone on May 1st.
Due to the fierce competition among May Day movies, "Hot Pot" was slightly inferior both in box office and film schedule. Its reputation and film quality were also questioned by many viewers.
Seeing that "Hot Pot" was not doing well at the box office, director Ding Sheng once burst into tears in the live broadcast room. He looked depressed, his eyes were empty and lifeless, and he sighed at other times. His whole person looked decadent and depressed, which was different from the look he had at the road show. Feiyang's appearance is completely different.
Director Ding Sheng cried in the live broadcast room. It was really sad to watch, but the main creators were nowhere to be seen, leaving the director to yell hard.
Looking through the social software of the heroine Yang Mi , there are only two blog posts about "Hot Pot", and it seems that she is not interested in the movie. In addition, except for the movie premiere, Yang Mi did not participate in any other roadshow activities, while the director traveled to many cities to promote it. Although the director has tried his best, the box office was still not satisfactory. No wonder he had runny noses and tears during the live broadcast.
Later, on the fifth day of its release, "Hot Pot" suddenly announced that it would be withdrawn, and issued a letter of condolences saying that due to various environmental factors since the film was released, it has not been able to meet more audiences. It will be released on May 6 It was canceled on the same day and met with the audience again on another day. The box office at this time was more than 50 million yuan.
Less than a week after the announcement of the withdrawal of "Hot Pot", the film quickly chose to be broadcast online on the platform. This wave of operations also means that the audience who previously paid to watch the movie have become clowns, and only one movie will be released. The 5-day movie has also been permanently placed on the pillar of shame.
Later, when director Ding Sheng responded to the issue of withdrawal, he directly blamed the poor box office on the audience. He said that there is a certain threshold for watching "Hot Pot" and it is not particularly easy to watch. Some viewers cannot calm down and play with their phones for a while while replying to messages, and cannot understand the film at all. Not long after
was released on the platform, Ding Sheng posted another article saying that "Hot Pot" was successfully released in North America and he was very pleased that foreign audiences could understand and enjoy the movie watching process. Perhaps the best result would be to let more people enjoy it.
Ding Sheng’s words really make people feel physically uncomfortable. Before, he meant that domestic audiences could not understand his movies, but now he said that he was glad that foreign audiences could understand and enjoy the movie. Even if the movie was poorly made, it is still getting weird every day. Yes, the layout and size are really not that small.
It’s really bad luck to meet such an emotionally unstable director. He only said that foreign audiences enjoyed his movie, but was slapped in the face by the box office of the movie of US$719. Many netizens left sarcastic comments about this, claiming that they made an insane amount of US$719. This was too much money, and it made other films that were not released in North America jealous.
The audience is the only criterion for testing the quality of a work. I hope some directors will not belittle themselves, embody yin and yang, and focus on making good works wholeheartedly. Instead of blaming the audience's viewing level
