At the end of the recording, Zuo Le Zuodong invited the four mentors out to eat together, which was not only to express gratitude, but also to consolidate and maintain the relationship between the two parties.

In any way, befriending the four music bigwigs has a lot of benefits for Zuo Le.

In the same way, the four mentors are also very willing to get acquainted with Zuo Le.

Not to mention his current status as a director, let's just say that Zuo Le's Shanhe Pictures has recruited troops during this period of time, and has also invested in several film and television projects from the outside world, and the expansion and rise are shocking.

Now, Shanhe has become a new mountain in the entertainment industry, although the background is still a little insufficient, but the prospects are great.

Those who can mix in the entertainment industry are human spirits, and they know what to do in the face of a new giant like Zuo Le.

Otherwise, you think that this group of queen-level music bigwigs will be so idle, and they will come to make cameos, and they will make cameos, and they are very busy.

Zuo Le also knows and understands it.

At first, everyone didn't know each other, you sold a favor, I gave you a face, nodding friends, mutual benefit, and it was normal.

Later, I slowly got acquainted, and the people who didn't meet the temperament broke up, and those who could talk together became friends.

Contacts have been accumulated bit by bit.

.........

The two sides made good friends, and they naturally talked happily at the wine table, and after eating, Zuo Le also took a few mentors to KTV and enjoyed a live concert.

The next day, Zuo Le said goodbye to the four mentors and the director of "The Voice of China" one by one, and then returned to Quancheng with Cen Kun.

After that, Zuo Le and Yan Ni discussed, and the two sides had a clear division of labor, Zuo Le sat in the Dongshan base camp, and was also responsible for the propaganda work of the northern provinces and cities.

Yan Ni led people to the south to carry out the publicity work of "Charlotte's Troubles" in the south.

This year, there is no 30th lunar month, January 31 of the solar calendar is the 29th day of the lunar month, and the next day, February 1st, is directly the first day of the first month, the Spring Festival.

The first day of release of "Charlotte's Troubles" is also on this day, and at the same time, it is also the day of the start of this year's Chinese New Year.

Therefore, two days after Zuo Le returned from Hangzhou, there was more and more publicity in the industry about the Chinese New Year movies, and Zuo Le seemed to have smelled the smoke of the war.

At noon on January 20, 2022, kung fu superstar Cheng Long's new movie "Dragon Totem" was the first to open the pre-sale box office window for the Chinese New Year.

Immediately after 2 o'clock in the afternoon, the biggest hit in this year's Chinese New Year, the new movie "Golden Night Banquet" by the great director Zhang Kaigang also opened the pre-sale window.

At 12 o'clock in the morning the next day, the two movies had a total of 230 million pre-sale box office, and the results were gratifying.

The next day, several Chinese New Year movies in the same period also opened the pre-sale box office one after another, and Zuo Le did not be a maverick, opening the pre-sale window of "Charlotte's Troubles" on the afternoon of January 21.

As of 8 a.m. on the 22nd, the total pre-sale box office reached 58.13 million, and it was the fourth place in the same period in most days.

This achievement aroused the vigilance of several films in the same period, but the other party did not do anything for "Charlotte's Troubles", and at this time, everyone's attention was attracted by "Golden Night Banquet".

Less than 48 hours after the pre-sale box office opened, "Golden Night Banquet" has already earned 285 million, breaking the record of the fastest pre-sale box office to break 200 million, and is about to break the record of the fastest to break 300 million.

Compared with it, "Dragon Totem", which ranks second on the pre-sale box office list, has just broken 100 million.

The fierce momentum made the movies of the same period frightened.

Zhang Kai has just been famous for a long time, and his status in the circle is extremely high, and he even faintly has the posture of the first director in China.

However, in recent years, Lao Zhang's life has not been easy, and the first two movies have received a flood of bad reviews.

Especially the "Bloody Case of Steamed Buns" released last year, which made major film critics spray wildly, known as the invincible bad movie in history, and the audience didn't buy it, and it was tragically painted within 10 days of release.

In the end, this magic blockbuster, which claims to have invested hundreds of millions of dollars, has a total box office of less than 400 million, and the investors almost lost money and almost went to be pants.

The film performance is so poor, Zhang Kaigang, the director, is naturally to blame, and he has also been questioned and his reputation crisis has never been repeated.

Many people question that Jiang Lang is exhausted, he can't keep up with the times, and it's time to take a back seat.

Zhang Kaigang has been in the film industry for decades and has won countless honors and achievements, how can he suffer such a great humiliation, so he immediately began to prepare for a new work, ready to be ashamed.

Although "The Bloody Case of Steamed Buns" lost a lot of money, Lao Zhang's prestige for many years is here, and many people are still willing to believe him.

Soon Zhang Kaigang got hundreds of millions of investment and made a new movie "Golden Night Banquet".

This movie is very big, and nearly 5,000 people were mobilized for the group performance alone, and the starring lineup is even more terrifying.

Fa Ge of the two Golden Dragon Actors, Uncle Ge of the Golden Dragon and Golden Phoenix Double Slam & Cannes, Golden Dragon Actor Liu Ye, and pop superstar Zhou Tianwang.

Golden Dragon & Venice Actress Gonghuang, Golden Dragon Actress Zhou Gongzi, Golden Dragon Actress Zhang Ziyi......

One word, fierce!

Because of this, even if Lao Zhang consumed a lot of the audience's feelings last time, he couldn't help but buy a ticket when he saw this starring lineup.

It is no exaggeration to say that even if the plot is, just watching this group of actors and actresses is only worth the ticket price.

.........

The performance of "Golden Night Banquet", Zuo Le naturally saw it in his eyes, and wanted to say that the pressure in his heart was fake, but he was not too panicked.

From the very beginning, Zuo Le did not regard "Golden Night Banquet" as an opponent, this movie has too strong advantages, and the famous directors are almost out of reach.

Not to mention the audience, even he wanted to go to the cinema after listening to this lineup.

If a low-budget comedy like "Charlotte's Troubles" wants to fight with such a blockbuster, it will definitely die and there is no scum left.

Therefore, Zuo Le never thought of fighting with "Golden Night Banquet", and the two sides didn't have to fight.

The Chinese New Year stalls are very large, tens of billions or even tens of billions of markets, and "Golden Night Banquet" can't eat half of it no matter how fierce it is.

Moreover, "Golden Night Banquet" is an alternate history, which is said to reflect the cruelty of the struggle for imperial power, showing human struggles such as power and lust.

Although "Charlotte's Troubles" also has deep connotations, it generally takes the comedy route.

The themes and structures of the two films are completely different, and the audience groups are also different, so there is no direct conflict.

What Zuo Le needs to be wary of is "Dragon Totem" and "Jigong Biography" of Defeng Society.

Especially the latter, although it is known as a mythological theme, if you think about Guo Banzhu's style, it must be a comedy, and Cheng Long's action movies have always been light and comedy.

These two movies, to a certain extent, coincide with the selling points of "Charlotte's Troubles", and their popularity is not low, which may have an impact on "Charlotte's Troubles".

This is the real rival in Zuo Le's heart.

As for other movies of the same period, there is no shortage of outstanding ones, but the hardware obviously does not show the above ones.

If it weren't for the particularly good quality, the counterattack would have become a word-of-mouth dark horse, and in this year's Chinese New Year file, the eight achievements are Zuo, Zhang, Guo, and Cheng.........
