The Director of Music Department

Six hundred and eighty-three. Another crazy one

Movies are really scary.

This kind of news must not be covered up. In fact, the situation is more serious than imagined.

On the night when "Midnight Ring" was officially released on a large scale, more than two hundred people were frightened and sent to the first aid.

Of course, Toei's previous arrangements were indeed timely, so although these people were frightened, none of their lives were in danger in the end.

And only the Shochiku Cinema in Yurakucho, Chiyoda-ku, Tokyo was killed!

A male audience named Komatsu Jingming was frightened to death on the spot!

The frightening scene was exactly the scene where Sadako crawled out of the TV.

Immediately, the news of the entire island country became a sensation, and the incident was reported one after another.

"This is the news channel. Next, let's look at a piece of news. Yesterday, "The Ring at Midnight" directed by the Light of Asia and Huaguo director Wang Yifan was officially released in the island country. More than 200 people were sent to the hospital because the movie was too scary. , Unfortunately, at the Shochiku Cinema in Yurakucho, Chiyoda-ku, Tokyo, a 23-year-old male audience, Komatsu Keiaki, was frightened on the spot and had a heart attack, and died on the way to the hospital!"

"Let us mourn Komatsu Keiaki who unfortunately passed away. In fact, as early as the filming of "Midnight Ring" started, the director Wang Yifan from China once warned the president of Toei Co., Ltd. Tsukamoto Oshima that "Midnight Ring" would It was so terrifying that it might scare people to death, and many people took it as a joke at the time, because in the history of the island country, there has never been a situation where an audience was scared to death by a movie screen."

"For this reason, many celebrities expressed their hope that "Midnight Ring" will be ordered to be banned! So let's see how ordinary people view this matter?"

The scene turned to the street, and a reporter said to the camera: "I am now at Yurakucho 2-chome, Chiyoda-ku, Tokyo."

Speaking of this, the reporter stopped a passerby who looked like a social animal in a suit.

"Hi, I'm Xiao Cong Keiko, the reporter from China, can I spare you a little time?" Xiao Cong Keiko asked with a sweet smile.

"Aha! Of course! Excuse me." The other party was obviously captured by Xiao Cong Keiko's sweet smile.

"Do you know the frightening incident in "Midnight Ring"?" Keiko Xiaocong asked.

"Of course! I've seen "Midnight Ring"! It's unfortunate that someone was actually scared to death." The animal exaggerated.

"Then do you think "Midnight Ring" is scary? Did it scare you?" Xiao Cong Keiko asked.

"Are you kidding me? How could I be scared? However, there are some parts where I was almost scared!" How can a man say he is scared in front of beautiful women?

"Now some relevant people believe that "Midnight Ring" should be banned, what do you think about this issue?" Xiao Cong Keiko asked again.

"Aren't excellent horror movies supposed to bring the audience a thrilling and exciting experience? It's absurd to ban the show because of death. Some children choked on candy, and even choked to death. Are you allowed to sell candy? The so-called relevant people are all cowards!" The social animal said with a look of disdain.

"Ok thank you this..."

"Damen Qilang!" said the animal.

"Okay, thank you Mr. Damen for your answer!"

Then, the reporter interviewed several passers-by, including men, women, old people, and so on.

But the result was very strange, everyone thought it was ridiculous to ban "Midnight Ring" because someone was scared to death!

As a result, the "Midnight Ring" trend swept across the island country and radiated to other Asian countries.

Of course, the frightening thing did not happen again, which made Wang Yifan heave a sigh of relief.

But Tsukamoto Oshima didn't take it seriously at all, but was extremely excited. This incident made "Midnight Ring" suddenly become the cusp of the storm and the focus of the most attention.

For other movies in the same period, no matter how much publicity is used, it is useless.

As for Komatsu Jingming, Dongying also put on a show. Although Wang Yifan didn't like it very much, he didn't stop it, because Dongying did make up for the other party's large sum of money.

This can be regarded as a little compensation.

However, although "Midnight Ring" has created a frenzy of "ring" in island countries and in Asia, its performance in North America is very strange.

The reputation of professional film critics of "Midnight Ring" is overwhelming, and even many Hollywood directors, actors, etc. say that this is an extremely wonderful horror movie.

But in terms of box office, it seems a bit unsatisfactory.

In island countries, the release time of a movie is generally four weeks. Of course, if the box office performs well, it will be postponed.

In fact, it is similar to China to some extent.

"Midnight Ring" was affected by the frightening incident. It was released in the island country for a week, and it earned 3.8 billion yen. It can be said that it exploded immediately.

Of course, "Midnight Ring" can achieve such results, and Toei's generous publicity is also indispensable.

The production cost of "Midnight Ring" is actually not too high, but the publicity cost is three times the production cost!

However, this kind of box office revenue is indeed surprising. Many people are surprised that Tsukamoto Oshima previously boasted a box office of 10 billion yen, but now judging from the current situation, this figure is really not far away. Impossible, but it seems to be just a matter of time.

In North America, however, "The Ring" did not fare as well, with the box office only reporting $2.8 million in its first weekend.

Although this is also due to the fact that there are not many opening screens of "Midnight Ring", compared with the popularity of the island country, it is indeed not at the same level.

The following week, "Midnight Ring" was exposed again, and some viewers were frightened crazy after watching "Midnight Ring", which is no worse than scaring people to death.

As a result, the box office drop of "Midnight Ring" was extremely insignificant in the next week, and it even reported another 3 billion yen.

But in North America, it is still unsatisfactory. Although the reputation is as good as ever, many film critics gave extremely high evaluations, but the result...

1.28 million!

This is the result of the second week of "Midnight Ring" in North America.

By the third week, "Midnight Ring" probably had its box office potential overdrawn in advance in the previous two weeks, so the decline was obvious, and it was directly cut in half.

The weekly report received 1.4 billion yen!

But even so, the box office has reached 8.2 billion yen!

According to the current situation, the screening of "Midnight Ring" can definitely be postponed. It may take longer to break through 10 billion, but it is difficult to achieve a higher box office.

After all, the drop is huge, so the follow-up is unpredictable!

Oshima Tsukamoto was a little bit unwilling, because according to the current situation, it would be difficult for "The Ring" to even exceed 10 billion. After all, such a large drop shows that the potential has been gradually exhausted.
