Chapter 838: Number One In Box Office History!

Chapter 838: Number One In Box Office History!

Below these accounts, all of them had been attacked by angry netizens and viewers. Every Weibo comment section was filled with comments denouncing them for using public opinion to destroy a classic domestic movie!

The netizens asked them to make a public apology. Not only did they want to apologize to “Wandering Planet”, but they also wanted to apologize to the people who had been fooled.

Only the relatively fair and public platforms such as the broken station and the Hupu avoided being affected because they handled the situation well. The rest were not spared.

Those Internet celebrities and marketing accounts wanted to cry as well. They had not expected this to happen.

Actually, it was fine even if things turned out this way. But… They had already apologized. It was just that Jiadian Group did not forgive them. So, how were they going to explain themselves?

At this time, just as the situation was getting more and more heated, suddenly… The trending topics on Weibo, Zhihu, Baidu, TikTok, and other big platforms started to drop or be removed.

Due to the series of reversals and the popularity of “Wandering Planet” itself, this incident had an average of five to six trending topics on every platform. All the users on Baidu, Weibo, and Zhihu could see this topic. But now, it had all disappeared without a trace.

Obviously, someone wanted to deal with this matter silently.

The “silent treatment” was the most common method in public relations. When the public’s opinion was biased toward the enemy, lowering the popularity of the matter was a form of protection.

This time, there were many factions who ended up on the hot search list.

There were the producers and directors of the three movies, some rich Internet celebrities, and even the support of these big platforms. They had been sued by Su Yang earlier, and now they were affected as well. They could not stand it anymore, so they wanted to suppress the popularity and let the matter pass as soon as possible.

As for apologizing…

That was out of the question, they would never apologize in that lifetime.

As a platform, there was a disclaimer clause. Even though there was an obligation to review the user’s speech, it was not to the extent where they could not even create a rumor. Therefore, they felt confident.

The trending topic had been removed. The three movies, the various platforms, and the Internet celebrities were all pretending to be dead. They acted like they did not see it and dealt with it silently. Everything seemed to be suppressed by these “evil” forces.

The netizens were all frustrated. They felt like they had been used, but they could not even complain.

With these capitalists working together to control the public’s opinion, it was too scary!

Furthermore, as the trending topic was removed, many users realized that they would be banned from posting content related to this incident. They could only see their own content, but others could not.

This was obviously a further cooling-off measure for several large platforms.

At this moment, the power of an individual was insignificant and powerless before capital.

It was like a giant gray net that covered the blue sky…

The netizens were unable to vent their anger online. They could only rush into the cinema angrily and continue to support “Wandering Planet” with their actions!

Therefore, thanks to the exposure of this incident, after two days of decline, the box office of “Wandering Planet” rose again on the last day of the Chinese New Year, reaching 430 million in one day!

Therefore, during the seven days of the New Year slot, the cumulative box office of “Wandering Planet” reached an astonishing 2.78 billion yuan!

In just seven days, he had surpassed the records of “Monster Hunt” and “”Fast & Furious 7″” and reached the top of the domestic box office rankings!

This was the first domestic movie that had truly taken the top spot in the domestic box office earnings history!

On this day, the entire film industry was in an uproar!

Everyone was celebrating and happy. After all, this was decades of humiliation!

To the top three most powerful countries in the world, the most important area of cultural promotion, the movies. In the end, the audience loved to watch American movies!

If this was not humiliation, what was it?

On a larger scale, this means that our people are being exported by Western culture.

But at that moment, it was all over!

“Wandering Planet” broke 2.7 billion yuan box office earnings in seven days and successfully reached the top!

The director of “Wandering Planet”, Guo Fan, and the movie’s spiritual character, Wu Feng, had all been tagged on Weibo. Not only were there many netizens congratulating them, but there were also celebrities from the entertainment industry and the film industry.

As for Su Yang, he was the investor, producer, director, and even the male lead in name. There were many people who wanted to congratulate him, but because Su Yang’s status was too high, none of the celebrities or directors dared to @ Su Yang. Therefore, all of them sent private messages or left messages on the first Weibo post.

When Su Yang received the news that Little Deeny had broken the record, he realized that his Weibo had exploded.

He opened his Weibo and took a look, then smiled. He felt that it was indeed something to be happy about. Therefore, he also posted a Weibo post and attached a promotional picture of “Wandering Planet”. ‘Thank you everyone for your support. Without you, there would not have been such a first place in film history. But now, the journey of “Wandering Planet” has not ended. We have already left the solar system, but our journey to the ends of the galaxy has not ended yet. Let us work towards the 5 billion yuan box office earnings!’

This was the first time that Su Yang publicly announced his box office expectations for “Wandering Planet”.

The result made everyone’s scalp go numb. 5 billion yuan box office earnings? Seriously?’

‘One had to know that other than yourselves, the highest box office earnings in the country was only 2.43 billion yuan! And this was even a Hollywood blockbuster, the national phenomenal movie, “Fast & Furious 7”!

‘When “Fast & Furious 7” became popular, it even became a popular meme… Let’s go fast and furious after watching the movie.

‘In the end, you’re telling us that you’re going to grow twice its size…!

‘Let’s not even talk about whether the quality of “Wandering Planet” could be twice as good as “Fast & Furious 7”. Just look at the domestic movie market, could it possibly have such a huge user base?’

For a moment, everyone who saw this Weibo post was suspicious of this question.

‘A movie ticket’s cost is around 20 to 100 yuan. On average, it’s around 40 to 50 yuan. Five billion yuan would mean that you would need more than 100 million people to watch this movie.

‘Can… This be done?’

However, even though they were suspicious, they did not doubt it on this festive day. Instead, they pretended not to see the sentence and gave their blessings.

The first to send their blessings were the artistes under Jiadian Pictures. A-list superstar Han Yi, the current top celebrity Meiyue, and Lin Jiali, who was still a C-list celebrity…

Han Yi posted. ‘Congratulations to Mr. Su for being the main lead and investing in a movie that has topped the box office! It has been fully booked. Remember to bring me along when you have such a movie next time.’

Mei Yue posted. ‘You’re awesome, Boss! You really are awesome no matter what you do!’

Lin Jiali posted. ‘Old Su, don’t forget us when you become rich. Why are some of my scenes cut…’

From their replies, one could tell their relationship with Su Yang. Lin Jiali was like a good friend to them. Mei Yue, on the other hand, had a carefree personality. Only Han Yi had a more formal congratulatory approach since she and Su Yang did not have much interaction.

After they sent their congratulations, everyone realized. ‘Unknowingly, the A-list Heavenly Queen of the entertainment industry, Han Yi, and the top celebrity, Meiyue, are both at Jiadian Group.

‘Jiadian Group is also very powerful in the entertainment industry!

‘As for Lin Jiali…

‘Eh? Did Lin Jiali also act in “Wandering Planet”? Was it the role of the beautiful protagonist?

‘Eh? I thought she was beautiful at the time, but how have I forgotten about her later? Cough cough.

‘Why is it so hard to remember such a beautiful woman… This is too weird. Is there some kind of weird buff?’

After the celebrities from Jiadian Pictures congratulated him, Wu Feng, Guo Fan, as well as some celebrities that Su Yang knew, the director also came to his Weibo to congratulate him. After that, the Best Actor, Best Actress, celebrities, and big shots also came to do the same.

At that moment, Su Yang’s Weibo post was filled with celebrities. Fans didn’t even have time to like it. When they scrolled down, there were hundreds of congratulatory messages from people in the film industry that they knew or knew well.

That was the reality of the entertainment industry. If you didn’t have any achievements, even if you did, not many people would really care about you. However, when you proved your worth, especially when you proved that you could bring value to others, you would be worshipped…

People like Su Yang who was an investor, a producer, a director, and even an actor. Whether it was his acting skills, connections, money, or foresight, he could all help a bunch of people. If Su Yang took a fancy to them and brought them along, they might achieve meteoric success. Therefore, it was understandable that so many celebrities and big shots came to congratulate them.

At this moment of “universal celebration”, of course, it was not perfect. The malicious rumors and competition before the three movies like “From Vegas To Macau 3”, as well as Weibo, Zhihu, and a few other big platforms were high up on the throne, overlooking the people, controlling the public opinion with a wave of their hands. It still made this celebration a little gloomy…

On the second day after the box office broke the record, the seven-day holiday for the Lunar New Year had ended. Everyone was still immersed in their busy work.

Su Yang brought his parents to the provincial city where Jiujiang was located and brought them to watch “Wandering Planet”.

When his parents saw this, their eyes brimmed with tears. They clapped nonstop until their palms were red.

Of course, they were not unique. The entire theater was filled with spontaneous applause from the audience.

After watching the movie, Su Yang’s mother found Su Yang pleasing to the eye no matter how much she looked at him. She no longer looked frustrated because Su Yang had stayed at home for too long…

Su Yang’s father had given Su Yang a “high appraisal” for this movie. He even told Su Yang to work harder to produce a good movie and promote the heroism of their country!

After watching the movie, because it was only the eighth day of the Lunar New Year, most of the shops were still closed. Therefore, Su Yang did not accompany his parents to continue shopping in the provincial city. Instead, he sent them back to their hometown.

After that, he boarded the plane and flew back to Shanghai to officially start his new year of work.

The first thing he did at work was to deal with the matter of “From Vegas To Macau 3” and three other movies joining hands to defame “Wandering Planet”, Weibo, Zhihu, and other major platforms not doing anything and joining hands to remove the trending topic.

Su Yang was someone who would seek revenge for the smallest grievance. If they had not offended Su Yang, he would not have been bothered to do anything to them. But now that they have, if Su Yang let them off so easily, would he be able to live up to his reputation as the top tycoon in the country?

Would the top tycoon be removed from the hot search just like that?

If this matter was not resolved, when he entered the circle of the richest people in the future, he would be laughed at!

Therefore, when Su Yang returned to Shanghai, he immediately gave a call to the reviewers and the employees he knew from the National Films. He complained that the three movies in “From Vegas To Macau 3” had teamed up with fake reviewers to manipulate the reputation of his movie, as well as Weibo, Zhihu, and other major platforms.

When the reviewers and the employees of the National Films received this call, they felt like crying. “From Vegas To Macau 3” was a small matter, but behind Weibo and Zhihu stood the local internet giants.

To be able to become a big shot, the power behind them must be complicated. It was not something that could be dealt with easily. At least, it was not something that a small worker like him could handle.

Therefore, he quickly reported this matter.

Therefore, the matter was reported upwards, level by level, and it soon reached the bosses of the two departments. The bosses had a headache when they received this report.

They also knew that this could be considered a battle between immortals. Therefore, after some thought, they decided to let their subordinates gather the evidence and information first. Meanwhile, they wanted to test the bosses’ attitude and see how they would handle this matter.

After all, only those who had reached that level could help Su Yang fight with the other platforms.

However, when he asked his subordinates to prepare the materials, the bosses of the two departments also raised Su Yang’s position in their hearts.

Su Yang was good at this.

He did not complain about anything else, only that these people were suspected of manipulating public opinion.

In China, manipulating public opinion was a line not to be crossed. Whoever stepped on it would die. This was because it involved the foundation of the country’s rule.

However, in the past few years, all the major platforms had been doing something similar.

For example, putting a message on the hot topic list. Was this considered manipulating public opinion? Of course it was. It would be fine if it was normal information, but what if it was information that goes against the state?

Is this not a big deal?

For example, removing a message from the hot topic list. Was this considered manipulating public opinion? Of course, it was. If the country had something important to promote, what if the platform removed it?

Therefore, these operations were actually stepping on the line not to be crossed. However, all the major platforms avoided this red line with the excuse of ‘advertising’ and ‘business cooperation’.

In addition, they had someone backing them, so National Films turned a blind eye.

But now, Su Yang has revealed that conspiracy, which was like a seven inch snake being beaten up.

It was aimed at the fatal points of all the platforms!

The rest would depend on whether the commander was willing to make a move.

After the bosses set the tone, the employees quickly replied to Su Yang, saying that the bosses had taken this matter seriously. However, they requested to collect evidence, hoping that Su Yang would cooperate and provide more evidence.

Su Yang had all the relevant evidence, so he arranged for Little Deeny to gather all the evidence and send it to the staff.

After the staff finished reviewing them one by one, they said that the screenshots of Weibo, Zhihu and other platforms manipulating public opinion were more obvious, so it shouldn’t be a big problem.

However, the evidence that the three movies, like “From Vegas To Macau 3”, created and defamed was only exposed by a few fake reviewers. This kind of evidence was practically worthless.

Because the other party had a stain on his record, and it was just a chat, it was too difficult to use it as evidence.

Therefore, she hoped that Su Yang would look for more conclusive evidence…

When Su Yang heard the staff’s reply, he frowned slightly. He felt that this was going to be difficult.

‘Proof?

‘Where am I supposed to find it?’

‘It’s not like Wang Jing and the rest have only been doing this for a short time. They have probably been very careful and transferred the money through their sub-account. It’s going to be impossible to get direct evidence from the fake reviewers.

‘And what do they mean by direct evidence?

‘You can’t possibly tell me that direct evidence is something like someone who has confessed on his own by bringing out the screenshots about what the producers of the three movies had discussed, can you?

‘How’s that going to be possible?!’
