Chapter 467:
The story starts in Chapter 464 of "Brother Dao Took the Entertainment Industry by Storm, Fans Beg Me Not to Kill Anymore": On May Day itself, "No Bait" was undoubtedly one of the hottest topics in the... Don’t miss it!
On May Day itself, "No Bait" was undoubtedly one of the hottest topics in the entire domestic entertainment industry.
Even though the recent revelations had pulled the guest female lead into a whirlpool of public opinion, it was undeniable that after Ding Wanyu's live-stream clarification and the production team's award-winning incident, the current traffic was actually a boost for "No Bait".
Many melon-munching casual observers got to know "No Bait" because of this.
And on the first day, the high-quality plot of "No Bait" successfully converted this wave of attention into favorable publicity, firmly catching this surge of traffic.
Even though Sun Gong's side was still desperately trying to drag "No Bait" into a new topic abyss, deliberately buying a few negative Hot Search topics, the frontline viewers were the best water army and promoters. Their negative Hot Search topics didn't have any effect at all; passing viewers even took the time to mock them a bit.
These people's impotent rage was quickly ignored by everyone.
Because compared to the scheming of losers, they were more concerned about the plot right now.
To prevent accidentally spoiling viewers who hadn't watched it yet, everyone very conscientiously built high "spoiler warnings" and then engaged in enthusiastic discussions on the relevant platforms.
"No Bait" achieved an astonishing first-day Box Office result during the May Day season, directly raking in 1.6 billion in Box Office on its opening day, stunning everyone in the industry circle.
Since the industry started declining, movie Box Office had basically stagnated.
Nowadays, many film works had actually reached a point where exceeding one billion in Box Office was difficult, let alone "No Bait" surpassing the final Box Office results of many movies on its first day (including pre-sales), directly securing the first-day Box Office champion spot.
This data injected a fresh burst of vitality into the gradually wilting Box Office market of recent years.
And any industry competitor who saw the finished product of "No Bait" couldn't find anything to criticize.
Even with multiple true and false storylines, the final filmed and edited result was still exceptionally clear in its logic, leading the audience layer by layer. The plot twists came without any sense of confusion.
Xiao He's performance, for many in the industry circle, was already on a completely different, crushing level.
There was no other way; Xiao He's existence was just too monstrous. And upon closer look, they realized he had just turned 24.
A 24-year-old newcomer, his second film role was the first billing main actor, and right upon release, his results swept across all other movies in the same period. How were others supposed to live with that?
And Tiger Brother, who had held back all day, finally finished watching all the other movies he had on hand.
As expected, the other movies in the same period this year were simply a pile of crap.
There was a Hong Kong film sequel that seemed to be selling nostalgia but was actually just has-been stars reheating leftovers; there was a campus tragic romance with handsome guys and beautiful girls that was actually a confusing exhibition of idiots playing at youthful angst; and there was a supposedly two-and-a-half-year production domestic cartoon where the characters' dancing was all glitchy...
When Tiger Brother finished watching "No Bait", he felt full of energy.
But after eating crap all day and returning, he felt utterly drained.
Even so, he gritted his teeth and started drafting, preparing to rush and record and edit all the May Day season recommendation videos in time.
Only after Tiger Brother finished all this and was ready to upload to the major platforms did he suddenly realize he seemed to have turned his "May Day Season Movie Recommendations" into a "Solo 'No Bait' Promotion" video.
After hesitating for just one second, Tiger Brother decisively uploaded.
Recommend! What he was recommending was "No Bait"! Everyone, go watch it!
This is divine quality!
Everyone, go watch it!
