Cloud Peak Scenery
Chapter 277 Public Opinion Storm
In a small rental room, a long-haired man with glasses was writing his magnum opus on Weibo.
"In my opinion, the movie *Zombie Taoist* is an over-hyped movie. It's not as exciting as the internet says. It can be said that it's just a successful promotion by Xuan Yao Company!"
"After I sat in the cinema, I was expecting a successful horror movie. I wanted it to bring me that feeling of horror. I wanted to experience the rapid heartbeat after adrenaline soars."
"But I was disappointed."
"This movie is a fake work in a horror coat. There are no horror elements in it. I only saw the dregs left over from the martial arts movies that have been abandoned by the times, and some self-righteous traditional culture."
"It's ridiculous that there are still people in the movie using the Taoist tricks to fool people on a large scale. I even left the cinema after watching half of it."
"Because it's not worth me continuing to watch."
"I would like to advise the audience who are interested in this movie, this movie is not as good as you think, and it can even be said that it is full of loopholes and it is difficult to be logically consistent."
"I know everyone went to the cinema for Lu Xuan, but you must know that he is just a small screenwriter, and this movie may have deviated from its original appearance."
...
This man with a somewhat unsightly appearance is a famous film critic on Weibo.
He has won over a group of fans on the Internet with his unique and insightful views.
This time, the film review he published was a manuscript specially commissioned by a competitor of *Zombie Taoist*.
Now *Zombie Taoist* directly devoured everything!
The box office on the market has been eaten clean.
Their remaining movies have no room for survival.
Now they can only try to use public opinion to break the current absolute monopoly of *Zombie Taoist*.
As soon as this manuscript was released, it immediately became popular on the Internet under the charm of money.
Some people who hadn't seen *Zombie Taoist* but intended to watch it hesitated after reading this movie review.
Indeed, they went to see this movie for Lu Xuan.
Lu Xuan is just an editor, and the director of this film is the protagonist of this film.
Will there be any changes in the plot that Lu Xuan doesn't want to see?
This is definitely a question.
This article quickly spread on Weibo.
More and more people saw it.
And some water armies are also posting words to disrupt the situation below.
In terms of the direction of the wind, it is almost one-sided.
This special phenomenon immediately attracted the attention of Xuan Yao Company, and Aunt Liu immediately called Lu Xuan.
However, before Lu Xuan could make a plan to fight back.
This matter has changed under the joint efforts of netizens.
Some loyal fans of *Zombie Taoist* immediately left a message under this article when they saw this situation.
"I don't know if the author has watched this movie, but from the proud words in this article, I think the author should not have watched it."
"Otherwise, it would be impossible to say such mindless words."
"Anyone who has watched this movie will not say that this movie is a bad movie, and the most important thing in it is logical consistency."
"Most of the domestic horror films use conspiracy or artificial means to determine the main theme of the story, but in this movie, there are zombies."
"I don't know if the author's ass is crooked, and he thinks that the moon in foreign countries is round, but I personally think that this movie is the most special horror movie in China!"
"I suggest the author touch his chest and see if that heart is the color of China."
In this way, a storm that was gradually being gathered was resolved by the fans spontaneously.
Even Xuan Yao Company's water army did not end.
Now Lu Xuan has accumulated a huge fan base!
However, after such a commotion, more and more people became interested in this movie.
Originally, Lin Ying was taking people outside to promote it, and this combination made the popularity of *Zombie Taoist* higher and higher.
The real-time box office situation is also displayed on the ticket purchase website.
In Lu Xuan's opinion, this situation is Lin Ying's success.
He is really suitable for filming zombie movies.
If it were Lu Xuan himself, I'm afraid he wouldn't be able to achieve such an effect.
On the Internet, the soft articles that originally smeared *Zombie Taoist* gradually disappeared, and the rest were soft articles of various praises.
There is no way, netizens like to watch works that recognize their own values.
Instead of not earning a penny, it is better to take money in Xuan Yao Company.
And real filmmakers began to analyze the success of *Zombie Taoist* from a professional perspective.
"I think the screenwriter played a big role in the success of this film."
"Although this movie is a horror movie, with the blessing of Taoist spells, it weakens the horror elements in it, allowing more people to enter the cinema and start enjoying this movie."
"This kind of all-age work is the biggest killer!"
"Especially the Taoist culture is our most precious traditional culture. In our lives, we can more or less come into contact with this aspect. Under this emotion, the appearance of Zombie Taoist means that such a thing will happen, and someone will protect us."
...
"In addition to the domestic first-class special effects and martial arts scenes, it is difficult for this movie not to succeed!"
This manuscript is considered to be the most successful movie analysis of *Zombie Taoist*.
And in this atmosphere of national hot discussion, *Zombie Taoist* directly became the first hot search on Weibo.
And in the second place is Lu Xuan's name.
Lu Xuan once said in a variety show that he wanted to create a new film genre.
At that time, everyone thought that Lu Xuan was bragging, and he couldn't find Bei because of his fame.
But no one thought that a sentence at that time would come true today.
And it has achieved such a successful result!
The first-day box office was 130 million!
This data is much higher than the movies in the Spring Festival档 (dàng - film season)!
Everyone has just experienced the baptism of Spring Festival movies, and under this big production, their vision has naturally improved a lot.
But even so, *Zombie Taoist* still took a bite of meat with a small cost.
And it is expected to exceed the box office of Spring Festival movies!
This is what shocked the industry.
First of all, in terms of subject matter, this is a completely new direction. No one knows whether the audience can accept such a movie.
Secondly, in terms of investment cost.
This movie is really pitiful compared to the movies in the Spring Festival档!
Lu Xuan has created another industry story.
