Chen Hao smiled slightly, although Da Meitang just said hello and hung up the phone, but being able to call was already a good start.

Subsequently, Chen Hao took a car to the café where he met Yu Dong last time, and the two agreed to officially sign the distribution agreement today.

When Chen Hao arrived, Yu Dong was already waiting.

"I'm sorry, senior, I've been waiting for a long time!" Chen Hao said apologetically.

"It's okay, I've just arrived. Yu Dong waved his hand and said, "This is the contract, you can take a look first!"

Chen Hao took the contract and looked at it, he had signed a lot of distribution agreements in his previous life, Chen Hao mainly saw that the points mentioned in the last conversation were in the contract, so he signed it directly.

Yu Dong smiled when he saw this, and finally decided to cooperate.

"Senior, where is the first screening of "Comet" scheduled and when will it start?" Chen Hao asked.

"The first show will be arranged at Huaying Cinema, and the time is scheduled for November 25th. Yu Dongdao, "After the first screening, let the school and the theater arrange screenings at the same time, and the scale will be determined when the situation comes." ”

"Okay, if there's anything I need to do, I'll cooperate. Chen Hao nodded when he heard this.

"On the 25th, I came to participate in the screening, and at the same time prepared to accept some interviews for publicity. Yu Dong said.

"No problem. Chen Hao agreed.

After talking, Chen Hao went back to the studio.

There is no one in the studio, Ning Hao's "Incense" is almost ready to start filming, and Xing Aina and Hao Yi are all following to help.

Chen Hao was alone for the time being, so he thought about what his second movie would make.

"Comet" is about to be released, but Chen Hao has no bottom in his heart about how much the final box office will be.

Although "Comet" is a good sci-fi suspense thriller, and won the New Wave Award and was nominated for the Golden Horse, it is considered that the domestic film market is now in a cold winter.

Moreover, the total number of screens in the mainland is less than 1,800, and the ticket price is far less than that of later generations, and there is a headache of piracy, so the box office share of "Comet" is estimated not to be too much.

Chen Hao now mainly has $500,000 that "Comet" sold to Colombia, which is almost 4 million yuan.

After calculation, it is estimated that the funds that can be invested in the second movie will be about 5 million at most.

This investment can't be considered too low now, but it is too little for Chen Hao, and many movies in his mind have to be excluded, and they still have to be made at a small cost.

I just don't know if it will be able to attract investment after the release of "Comet", and if so, the shooting cost will undoubtedly be more generous.

Time flew by, and soon it was November 25th.

During this period, Chen Hao was not idle, mainly busy promoting "Comet" on the Tianya Forum and Diying BBS, which still attracted some sci-fi suspense movie lovers.

Yu Dong also discussed with Chen Hao the promotion of BBS in major universities, and everything was ready, just waiting for the screening of "Comet".

On the day of the screening of "Comet", it was a Sunday, so Chen Hao, Dong Xuan, Zhou Yiwei, Tang Wei, Zhu Yuchen and Haiqing and other main creators came to participate in the screening.

As for Deng Chao, Chen Qian, and Yan Danchen, they were all in the crew at this time and could not participate.

"Before the movie is screened, do we still have to go on stage?" Dong Xuan asked next to Chen Hao.

"Mr. Yu told me, no, we are not famous, at most we will introduce us and we will start directly. Chen Hao nodded.

Dong Xuan relaxed when she heard this, but she felt a little disappointed, she still thought that she could appear in front of the media as the heroine.

Chen Hao saw Dong Xuan's thoughts, and said with a smile, "Everything still depends on how the movie is evaluated, don't say anything bad, if it's good, the media will naturally chase you." ”

Dong Xuan took a deep breath and nodded, "I know." ”

After the group arrived, they said hello to Yu Dong, Yu Dong smiled at everyone, and then pulled Chen Hao to the door to greet the guests.

Yu Dong has been in Emperor Film Studio and Huaying for several years, and his connections are still quite extensive.

Among them, Huaying also came, but it was not Mr. Xu, who was in charge of the distribution, and it is estimated that he would not come even if he was invited.

There were also many film critics and media, and the theater was quickly filled.

Seeing that the time was almost up, Yu Dong personally took the microphone to the stage.

"Thank you all for being able to attend the screening of Bernard's first domestic sci-fi film "Comet" today, which is a very interesting film, and his director is our genius director Chen Hao. Yu Dong pointed at Chen Hao.

Chen Hao was a little embarrassed by Yu Dong's title as a genius director, no matter how he heard it, he felt like a princess selling melons, but he still stood up and bowed slightly to everyone.

"Such a young director?"

"Looks like I'm still a student!"

"What the hell is this Yu Dong, how could he take a fancy to such a director? It can't be a relative or something, right?"

......

Yu Dong turned a blind eye to the discussion in the audience.

"Everyone may think that Director Chen Hao is too young to make a decent science fiction movie, but I want to say that it is precisely because Director Chen Hao is young that it is possible to break through the confinement of domestic science fiction films for so many years.

As a director of the older generation, because of the limitations of the times, his thinking is more or less trapped, and only young people like Chen Hao, who have active thinking and dare to think and dare to shoot, can bring fantasy and even radical science fiction suspense movies.

As for whether what I'm saying is true or not, we'll see in ninety minutes, so I won't say more, let's get started!"

Many media reporters and film critics in the seats laughed and exchanged their heads when they heard this, obviously noncommittal to Yu Dong's words.

Sci-fi films have always been one of the old difficulties of domestic films, and if it is suddenly broken by a young man in his twenties, it will be really hell.

And I haven't heard that this movie has a big investment, how can it be sci-fi?

And without the help of big stars from Hong Kong and Taiwan, how to attract the audience?

It is estimated that it is another pseudo-science fiction, trying to trick the audience into the cinema under the gimmick of a science fiction movie.

When everyone continued to criticize, the theater darkened, and "Comet" officially began.

The first ten minutes were a seemingly unnutritious chatter between eight friends.

"What's this shooting?"

Yu Dong is right, this is indeed a movie that only young people can make. ”

"This can also be called a movie? I make better films than him!"

"This genius director is really a genius!"

......

After watching the opening of the movie, many media reporters and viewers were a little surprised, even if they had made very low expectations, they still didn't expect it to be like this.

To be honest, if it weren't for the invitation, many people would probably just turn around and leave.

At the same time, many media reporters shook their heads with a wry smile, how can I write a report when I go back? There is really no bright spot, it is good to endure without scolding!
