(Bow and thank you for the monthly pass support of "I Love Diamonds"!)

At three o'clock in the morning, the office of Gerco on the 19th floor of the Otto Building was still brightly lit, and Zhou Ming, Tang Ran, Tang Lin, Jobs, and Disney's distribution manager, Iger, were all in the company's conference room, their eyes glued to the phone on the table, waiting for yesterday's box office results.

The day after Zhou Ming signed the contract with Disney, Disney couldn't wait to discuss with the theater chain and asked for a temporary increase in the number of screenings. This approach is actually unruly, because the film schedule of cinemas has been arranged for a long time, and if it is temporarily increased, it will increase the pressure on the cinema chain, so many cinema chains are unwilling.

However, Disney has a lot of money after all, and it has a very large influence in theaters, and in addition, the Toy Story he launched is also hoped that theaters in various cities can be authorized to be screened as soon as possible, so in this case, the two sides hit it off, completely exposing the capitalist nature that everything else is garbage in front of interests, and finally it was easy to reach an agreement on the temporary increase in Toy Story.

However, although the attendance rate before Toy Story was very surprising, it was under the premise that there were only 20 theaters in the country, and now it will be changed to a large-scale release of 1,000 theaters, and no one can guarantee whether it will be so popular, after all, it is not that there was no small-scale broadcast before The results were very good, and it hit the street immediately after the large-scale release.

Disney will also have such telecommunications, so they asked Iger to come over and wait for the news of the box office.

The atmosphere in the conference room was very tense, and suddenly the sound of footsteps outside the door attracted everyone's attention, after all, this footstep was particularly obvious in the silent night, and then under everyone's gaze, the door of the conference room was opened, and a man and a woman walked into the conference room.

"Hello everyone, I hope we weren't too late. The man said this, but in fact he didn't care about it.

These two were Tang Yi and Tang Wan'er, who later worked together through Tang Lin and Zhou Ming, and since Tang Lin had told Zhou Ming about this in advance, the others were not surprised by their arrival. It's just that Tang Lin frowned very dissatisfiedly and said, "Tang Yi, I think your lateness should be changed, even the always punctual cousin Wan'er has been dragged down by you!"

"I'm sorry, my car had a problem on the road, so I was delayed on the road with my cousin Wan'er, forgive me. ”

Tang Yi apologized very casually, and then he walked over to Zhou Ming with a big grin and said, "We meet again, I hope what Tang Lin said to me can come true, but I hope to see your jokes." ”

Zhou Ming spread his hands at this: "If that's the case, I think I'll have to say sorry to you, because you will definitely be disappointed." ”

Tang Yi sat down with a smile, Tang Wan'er was behind him, she was wearing a cheongsam that could highlight her figure very much, and the light makeup she painted made her pretty face charming and moving, she smiled at Zhou Ming and said: "I'm very happy to meet you again, you are still so handsome, it's not in vain that people have been thinking about you since the last time you were in a hurry at the family dinner in Quan'an!"

Tang Wan'er pouted her little mouth as she spoke, and revealed a faint sadness, completely like a little daughter-in-law who misses her lover, I feel sorry for her.

In this regard, Tang Yi pursed his lips and scolded a slut, Tang Wan'er glared at him, turned around and said to Zhou Ming: "Actually, you can cooperate with me, not only can I give you what Tang Ran gives you, but I can even give you more, how about it?"

Tang Wan'er leaned over as she spoke, not caring that her snow-white breasts were exposed to Zhou Ming's sight, she just blew hot air into Zhou Ming's ears and said, "I am better than that little girl in terms of oral work and bed skills, and I know very well what you stinky men want most in your hearts, do you want to try it?"

In the end, Tang Wan'er bit Zhou Ming's earlobe very provocatively, this time Tang Ran couldn't hold back any longer, she pulled Tang Wan'er away like an enraged lioness, pointed at her and scolded: "You woman is still shameless!"

Tang Wan'er, who was pulled away, was not angry, but giggled: "My sister Tang Ran, it's not right for you to say that, men are animals who like the new and hate the old, even if you get married, he will go out to find the mistress, not to mention that you are not married yet, so if he wants to change the object of sleep, it seems that it is not impossible." ”

Tang Wan'er said in the end: "So I'm just providing him with a reference now." ”

Tang Ran was very angry, and she asked in a cold voice: "Is it? Then Ms. Tang Wan'er, since it is a reference, why don't you show your capital? I think everyone here must be very interested." Of course, if you don't dare, then please put away your set of charming kung fu, please remember your own identity, you are the fourth heir of the Tang family, not the Liuying of Tiandelong District. ”

In the face of Tang Ran's words, the expression on Tang Wan'er's face finally became stiff, because although she was charming and coquettish, she was only for profit, and she didn't really think of herself as a slut.

But in the current relationship, Tang Wan'er couldn't say anything more to Tang Ran, so she could only snort coldly and sit down.

Tang Ran's performance made Zhou Ming a little impressed, Zhou Ming thought that he would have to find a way to deal with it himself, but he didn't expect that Tang Ran, who has always been timid, could solve it by himself, it seems that when it comes to herself, it is her bottom limit.

And as if the story in the dark knew the situation here, not long after Tang Yi and Tang Wan'er sat down, the phone on the table finally rang, making everyone suddenly feel refreshed.

Zhou Ming picked it up and connected it, and there was no surprise that it was a phone call from the box office statistics company, and he said that according to calculations, the total box office of Toy Story yesterday was three million dollars.

Hearing the news, Jobs and Iger cheered loudly at the time, they had been waiting for the result with their hearts, and when they heard it, they couldn't help but be a little excited, and they waved their arms vigorously to vent their feelings.

"Brother Ming, this is really good news! In this way, the box office of this animated film can exceed 100 million as you expected!" Tang Ran said to Zhou Ming excitedly.

On Tang Lin, Tang Yi and Tang Wan'er's side, the picture seemed to be frozen, and their eyes widened in surprise, even if they had already guessed the news, but when they really heard the news, they still had the feeling of listening to legendary stories.

This is too fake, how can he say that he can have as many box offices as he can? Could it be that all the audiences are sent by him?

Tang Yi and Tang Wan'er's minds were extremely confused, and compared to them, Jobs, Tang Lin and Egger felt even more unbelievable as dreaming.

Jobs clenched his fists and looked at Zhou Ming, he still clearly remembered that Zhou Ming told him that he would release Toy Story in a month, and at that time Jobs thought Zhou Ming was crazy. Indeed, he said before that he has been preparing this cartoon for several years, and it can be completed within a month with sufficient funds, but that's what he said!

In such a hurry to release a movie, not to mention that they have no contact with the distribution and no review, it is difficult to guarantee the quality of the film.

It can be said that this is simply a matter of chasing ducks to the shelves, Jobs has forgotten how he promised Zhou Ming in the first place, but he will always remember Zhou Ming smiling and saying to himself, "If this movie is not good, it can get hundreds of millions of box office."

Rao is no matter how confident Jobs is in his work, he will not think that Toy Story can be so popular, but now, Zhou Ming has really done it, this is really a great miracle!

Jobs thought excitedly, tears welling up in his eyes.

Tang Lin and Iger were dumbfounded, compared to Jobs's confidence in Toy Story, they had no concept at all.

You must know that when Zhou Ming found them, he told them that he had a movie that had not yet been produced, and it would be released within this month, and it would get a box office of 100 million, and their first reaction at that time was that he was crazy.

Even people who don't understand movies at all should understand what the concept of a box office of 100 million is, especially the most difficult animated film to sell, if anyone makes a random one can sell 100 million, then I'm afraid that Hollywood is full of billionaires. Therefore, in fact, the box office of the movie is not as easy to get as imagined, not to mention that Zhou Ming only has 200,000 US dollars in publicity expenses, and he has to rely on the Internet that has not yet taken shape to promote it.

It was a road that no one had ever walked before, but Zhou Ming dared to try, and finally succeeded.

At this moment, they couldn't think of anything else but give him a thumbs up and say something great.

However, compared with these people, Zhou Ming himself was also very surprised, because in Zhou Ming's memory, Toy Story finally calculated that the global box office was only 100 million, didn't I think that now if there is no accident, I can have it? It seems that because of his own approach, many things are not the same as before.

Thinking of this, Zhou Ming said with a smile: "It seems that the box office of the movie is still not so naughty beyond our expectations, this result can satisfy everyone, and we can go back to sleep beautifully." ”

Everyone smiled and nodded yes, and the party ended here, and then Tang Lin and Jobs Egger left Jieke's company one by one, but Tang Yi and Tang Wan'er were not in a hurry to leave, and still stayed in the conference room.

Zhou Ming felt a little strange about this: "What are you still staying here for? Are you waiting for me to invite you to supper? Or do you think you just came and don't want to leave like this?"

"It's so sad that we care so much about you. Tang Wan'er sighed and said.

Tang Yi reminded Zhou Ming: "Do you want to know the real reason why we are so late?"

Zhou Ming raised his eyebrows, and he asked tentatively, "Is it about Tang Yu, the heir of the second in line?"

Tang Yi and Tang Wan'er were stunned at that time, and they were stunned: "How did you know?"

Zhou Ming shrugged: "Guess, after all, I went to Quan'an to report him, he must have a grudge against me, with his temper that is so calculating, if he can turn over so easily, there will be a ghost, so he will definitely find a way to retaliate against me, now that you are so mysterious, you are also allied with him, so I think you may bring news about him." ”

Tang Wan'er looked at Zhou Ming's beautiful eyes full of surprise and admiration, while Tang Yi gave Zhou Ming a thumbs up and said with admiration: "I, Tang Yi, have never admired anyone in my life, you Zhou Ming is definitely the first!"

Zhou Ming said a lot of thanks, and then Tang Yi told Zhou Ming: "I don't think it's good news for you, what I want to tell you is that we received the news that yesterday he went to the most chaotic and worst security area in San Francisco, and when he came back, the bodyguards and his doglegs around him were all changed, with his character, I think he found someone to attack you." ”

"Kill me?" Zhou Ming asked.

Tang Yi shook his head: "With what I know about him, I'm afraid his thoughts are more terrifying and dark than this, friendly reminder, he is a very extreme person, so he may choose a more extreme way to retaliate." ”
