Only 2 people watched the movie on the first day? The filmmakers of "Lin De Shi Jian Lu" said that they have made back their investment

In the past two days, the movie "Deep in the Woods" has become popular because of its low box office.

However, according to reports, the producers of "Deep in the Woods" and another film "Spring Water and Stars" said that the total investment in the two films was about three to four million yuan, and through the sale of online copyrights, the costs have been recovered and there is even a slight surplus.

Recently, a netizen revealed that among the six new films released on November 4, the box office of "Deep in the Woods" was only 75 yuan a day and there were only 2 viewers.

The two of them supported the box office of a movie on its first day of release, leading many people to leave messages saying that the film was "the lowest-grossing film in 2022."

Afterwards, a netizen with an IP address in Guangdong jumped out and said, "I did contribute that five yuan! Let me correct you, it was not a coupon! I accidentally clicked the wrong button and the five yuan handling fee was deducted for the refund."

However, according to the data from Maoyan Professional Edition, the first-day total box office of "Lin Shen Shi Jian Lu" was 56 yuan, the total ticket price was 28 yuan (including a handling fee of 3 yuan), and there were no refunds. Therefore, there were really only two viewers on the first day of the film's release, but they were not these two netizens, and the total box office actually did not even reach 75 yuan.

The netizen who said he "contributed 70 yuan by himself" later admitted on Douban that "this is fictitious". "I saw a Weibo post yesterday and thought it was funny, so I came here to talk about it. I didn't expect it to turn out like this... I apologize to everyone."

Lighthouse Professional Edition shows that as of press time, the box office of "Lin Shen Shi Jian Lu" on November 11 was 119 yuan, and the number of viewers was 4. As of press time, the cumulative box office was 24,000, and the total number of viewers was 625.

"When the Forest is Deep, the Foothills Are Seen" stars Wang Yonggui, Li Yiru and Mu Mengjiao, and is directed by Zou Feng. Another film, "Spring Water and Stars", which was released on November 4, was also directed by Zou Feng. Both films were produced by Shanghai Huayuxingku Cultural Communication Co., Ltd. and Shanghai Fengsheng Cultural Communication Co., Ltd. On the first day of its release, "Spring Water and Stars" only earned 94 yuan at the box office, with 3 viewers.
