The first-day box office of "Swordsman" came out very soon. With its excellent plot and exquisite special effects, Naxi lost 1.65 million box office in one fell swoop, and got 80.00% freshness on Rotten Tomatoes. This word of mouth is still very good of.

Zhang Xiao immediately made people increase the publicity, and the next day he directly increased the film schedule of "Swordsman" by 5.00%, which made Director Gong Pan very grateful.

On the other side, "Windtalker" is not so good. The box office only got 1.21 million US dollars. With more and more fans watching the movie, the freshness score of this movie on Rotten Tomatoes has reached 50.00 %the following.

On the third day after "Swordsman" was released, Zhang Xiao received a call from Wilson, the person in charge of Rotten Tomatoes.

The two had contacted when "Zhu Xian" was hacked.

"Mr. Zhang, this time you and our Rotten Tomatoes website have been slandered by Columbia Pictures." This was Wilson's first sentence when the call was connected.

Zhang Xiaodao: "Mr. Wilson, you mean that this is all a conspiracy by Columbia Pictures to keep the box office of "Wind Talker", right?"

Wilson said in a deep voice: "It must be so. The values ​​of "Wind Talker" are obviously different from the mainstream values. It is normal for word of mouth to collapse, and it is not our problem."

Zhang Xiao asked: "Have you checked yourself?"

Wilson replied: "I checked, and there are no problems. Unfortunately, the outside world does not believe us."

Zhang Xiao asked: "Mr. Wilson, what do you want to say when you call me?"

Wilson said: "I want to join hands with you to sue this rumor team."

Zhang Xiao was taken aback when he heard this, and said, "Mr. Wilson, have you already found out about this team?"

"Yes!" Wilson said. "They did a very stupid thing, which is to leave a lot of posts in the comment section of our website."

"In order to avoid what happened in "Zhu Xian" last time, we paid a lot of money to hire several very powerful computer engineers, and they have locked each other's position now."

Upon hearing this, Zhang Xiao quickly asked, "Then did you call the police?"

"Of course!" Wilson nodded, "It is estimated that they have been caught by now."

Zhang Xiao was puzzled and asked, "Then why are you still looking for me?"

Wilson said with a wry smile, "Because the boss behind our website Rotten Tomatoes doesn't dare to offend Suo Li."

It turns out that the largest shareholder of the Rotten Tomatoes website is Cadiz. Although he is also a billionaire, his worth is nothing compared to Suo Li.

This time Columbia Pictures went too far, directly setting the Rotten Tomatoes website on fire. If the suspicion cannot be cleared as soon as possible, then the Rotten Tomatoes website will have no credibility at all.

A film review website without any credibility is not far from death.

Just when Zhang Xiao, the great god, was mentioned in the comments, Caddis asked Wilson to contact Zhang Xiao, hoping that both parties could share the pressure brought by Suo Li.

Hearing Wilson's words, Zhang Xiao was overjoyed and said, "So you guys want to use me as a gun!"

Wilson said, "Mr. Zhang, we really have no other choice."

Zhang Xiaodao: "Mr. Wilson, you are too weak. If you want to become a fair and just film review website, your attitude on Rotten Tomatoes must be tough, and you must let all movie fans feel that you can stand up to people from all walks of life. square pressure."

"What Columbia Pictures has done is a great opportunity to reshape the image of the Rotten Tomatoes website. I'm not afraid of Suo Li, but I won't hold back the pressure for you either."

"So, I'm very sorry."

After finishing speaking, Zhang Xiao hung up the phone directly.

The Rotten Tomatoes website had a pretty good plan, allowing themselves to go ahead, and they would take advantage of the latter. Zhang Xiao didn't have the habit of letting people use him as a gunman.

If Rotten Tomatoes dared to go head-to-head with Columbia this time, maybe Zhang Xiao would help out, but if Rotten Tomatoes died down and would rather suffer a loss than offend Columbia Films, then there would be no Baguio for it to exist.

Fortunately, the Rotten Tomatoes website did not disappoint Zhang Xiao. Half an hour later, the Walton police arrested a total of 32 Internet gangs in one fell swoop.

The website Rotten Tomatoes sued the gang for serious violations of their reputation.

Perhaps because of the lessons learned from the past, Columbia Pictures did not contact the team directly this time, so the police did not get any evidence that Columbia Pictures hired them.

But things have developed to this point, not to mention people in the industry, even any movie fan knows that this matter must have a deep relationship with Columbia Pictures.

So the Internet is full of posts that fans are joking about.

"I'll go, this is so embarrassing!"

"Why is it Columbia Pictures again, can't we change it a little bit?"

"I got caught twice in a row, Columbia Pictures, you guys should be more careful!"

"It's a shame that Columbia Pictures has done such things one after another in order to obtain high box office for the films it invested in!"

"The filming of "Windtalker" is actually okay, the only problem is that the world view is not consistent with mine."

"Those malicious propaganda teams were arrested, and it felt like there were a lot of posts scolding "Wind Talker" in an instant!"

"For the sake of the box office, dragging Rotten Tomatoes and Xiao Shen into the water, such unscrupulous methods are really shameless."

"···"

Seeing this situation, Columbia Pictures immediately posted a message on its company homepage.

The content is very simple, Rotten Tomatoes and Zhang Xiao's hacking and their facial features, but they still remain skeptical about the score of "Wind Talker" on Rotten Tomatoes.

The official website of Rotten Tomatoes also responded immediately, saying that after the last time "Zhu Xian" was hacked, the website spent a lot of money to strengthen the network security work, and the score of "Wind Talker" did not have any problems.

The two parties came and went, arguing excruciatingly.

Zhang Xiao is very speechless about the IQ of Rotten Tomatoes' high-level executives. Columbia Pictures obviously wants to continue to promote "Wind Talker" through this method. Although it is not a good thing, it is enough to arouse the curiosity of movie fans .

After two days, the Rotten Tomatoes website seemed to realize that it had fallen into the trap of Columbia Pictures, and immediately stopped talking, but it was too late!

"Wind Talker" abruptly used a freshness of 40.00%, and won a box office of 1.07 million US dollars and 1.12 million US dollars on the third and fourth days respectively, ranking third in the European and American film markets.

No.1 is Disney's just premiered movie "Black Panther", which reached 2.2 million US dollars, and its reputation is slightly inferior, but it still can't hinder the enthusiasm of movie fans.

No.2 is also "Swordsman" released by Disney Films, which won 1.72 million US dollars and 1.93 million US dollars on the second and third days respectively, second only to "Black Panther"!
Soon "Wind Talker" fell behind, directly falling from 6000 million US dollars to less than [-] million, and was defeated by "Black Panther" and "Swordsman".
