Chapter 70: Director Shen, Is Your Heart Okay?
""Buried Alive" counterattacked? and joined the box office war?"
"It's long overdue for a counterattack! With the quality of this piece after rectification, I feel fully qualified to compete!"
"That's a literary film, a literary film and a commercial film, this is not at the same level at all!"
"What's wrong with literary films? Literary films are a head shorter?"
"That's not what I meant, I mean, his total investment isn't much!"
"There are also cases of counterattacks in literary films, although there are not many, but it is still possible after all!"
"Oh, what's the total box office now?"
"Fifth in line. ”
"Fifth...... All right...... How much is there left from "The Capital"?"
"I'll take a look, the total box office of "Capital" is 31 million, and "Buried Alive" is 21 million. ”
"That's 10 million?"
"yes!"
"It seems that there is not much distance, and it is really difficult to counterattack!"
"Yes, it depends on the follow-up, by the way, you look at the major theaters, and their film scheduling and publicity volume of "Buried Alive" have also kept up!"
"Huh, these theaters finally have a brain, and they know that the gold mine still has to be dug ......"
"Of course......"
On the tomato network, there are more and more discussion posts about "Buried Alive" in major movie post bars and literary bars, and the popularity of "Buried Alive" has set new records every day, and finally swiped the tenth place on the homepage list of the whole movie ranking on Tomato Network in six days.
The counterattack of small-budget literary films is what many netizens want to see, and the production of the rectified "Buried Alive" is very sophisticated, which makes them very comfortable to watch, and some literary and artistic elements like this film to the core, and they are so enthusiastic that they are analyzing the connotation of this film and whether the ending of this film is bright or dark every day......
Countless controversial posts have made this "Buried Alive" rise day by day, and everyone is admiring the conception and uniqueness of this film, and it has to be said that it is a historic change to use one actor to support a film!
At least, there has never been a film like this in the history of cinema!
In contrast, the evaluation of "Capital" is not so optimistic.
Of course, it's not deserted in the post bar, and it's also very lively, but it's basically all spraying spray, spraying actors have no acting skills, the plot can't be understood, the details are shit, the special effects are good but the plot is really weak, what shit did Jet Shen spend so long shooting......
The comparison of word-of-mouth, the popularity on the Internet and the relationship between attendance, several theaters finally began to change the number of films.
Replaced part of the schedule of "Capital" with "Buried Alive" and some horror films in the midnight file were also replaced with "Buried Alive".
Well, in a sense, "Buried Alive" is also a type of thriller and suspense film after all, isn't it?
Why do it?
After all, the theater chain also wants to make money, and whichever film can sell tickets can be lined up more than that, and it is impossible to schedule bad movies all day long!
If you don't make money, what kind of theater will you open!
It was in this environment that the early morning of September 6 was ushered in.
"It's exploded, we've exploded, Ah Yuan, grass, don't look at any "recipes", grass, drink with me!"
"You explode every day, what did you explode today!"
"Our single-day box office has broken 10 million!"
"Ten million?"
"Of course, it's not the happiest, you know what the happiest is?"
"What?"
"The happiest thing is that Jet Shen's "Capital" has a box office of only 3 million today, a record low!
"Three million?"
"Yes, three million! Let's go, Ah Yuan, drink and go, I'll treat ......"
"Okay, okay, okay. After hearing the words Wei Fatzi's treat, Lu Yuan, who was originally lazy, suddenly became energetic.
…………………………………………
"Are you happy?"
“……”
"Little Zhong, aren't you happy?"
"Happy, happy!"
"It's good to be happy, see our strength. ”
"See!"
"The day after tomorrow, no, I'll prepare your movie tomorrow, and I'll ask someone to take it for filing and start shooting. ”
"Ah, so fast?"
"It has to be fast, and the future great directors should be like this!"
After drinking, eating barbecue, and paying, Wei Fatzi pulled Qian Zhong and hummed a little song, and walked very happily into the distance along the way.
There was a hint of smugness in his eyes.
Young people always have to be young and frivolous, right?
Although he may not be young now, he must be frivolous!
Life is proud!
"Have you stepped on the pinnacle of life?" Lu Yuan looked quite calm, after all, the money had not yet reached him, and the money was just a number for him for the time being, seeing that Wei Fat Man was so excited, Lu Yuan narrowed his eyes.
"Yes! From now on, I will not be the same as before! No one will look down on me in the future!" Wei Fat Man shook his throat.
"Is that a need for a little goodbye to the past?" Lu Yuan suddenly showed a wicked smile after looking at Wei Fatzi.
"What ritual?"
"Call Jet Shen...... If you pretend to be forced, you have to pack a full set!"
"Yes, yes, yes! I suddenly thought of ...... Xiao Zhong, give me a ...... with my phone."
"Huh, why do you use my phone?"
"I'm afraid that Jet Shen won't answer my phone......"
………………………………………………
Some people are too happy, some people are too sad.
In the dim light, Jet Shen lowered his head and looked at the data report and the decreasing film schedule and attendance rate.
Three million box office.
Is this really my movie?
My total investment is 30 million!
It's all special and hasn't paid back yet!
At this moment, he no longer knows what to say.
The atmosphere was solemn.
It's also very depressing.
At this time, the phone rang.
"Toot toot. ”
"Hey!"
"Hello, is it Director Shen?"
"I am, you are ......"
"Director Shen, how are you doing? Oh, is your heart okay? hehe...... I have heart medicine here, would I like to send you some?"
"Get out!"
"Smack!"
When the original voice became Wei Fatzi's voice, Jet Shen's eyes were red, and he grabbed the phone fiercely and threw it out the window.
He seemed to see Fat Wei's triumphant expression......
It's hateful, hateful, and full of a slap in the face with a successful counterattack lewd smile.
Bang bang bang!
……………………………………
"Ah Yuan, have you slept?"
"I slept, but I was woken up by you, and what did you call me in the middle of the night!"
"We're a box office hit!"
"I know. ”
"You expected it to explode?"
"Sort of. ”
"Ah Yuan, I have to say, you are really a terrible man. ”
"What the hell are you trying to say......"
"Actually, all of this is under your control, right?"
"I don't understand what you're talking about......"
"Joaquin is going to renew his contract with me! 10 years of S-level contract, and promises a top IP movie or TV series every year, as well as various advertising ......"
"That's a good thing! Why, thank you I want to invite me to a big meal? I don't need a big meal, when I look for you in the future, you can come over for a while, or if you really can't get over it, send me all your salary and share in the future!" Lu Yuan remembered the innate dream of opening a restaurant, and he suddenly laughed.
Perhaps, it is impossible to say whether everything is a dream or not.
"Ah Yuan, I'...... I don't want to sign with them anymore. ”
Lu Yihong on the other end of the phone shook his head, and his voice seemed to be a little firm.
"Do you want to change jobs?Have you been in contact with other entertainment companies?" Lu Yuan suddenly felt a little strange when he heard this.
"No ......"
"So what do you want to do?
"Ah Yuan, I'll follow you!"
“???”
"Wei Fatzi told me that you are preparing for the next movie "The Wanderer", ......"
"So what?"
"I'll just sign you for "remote" entertainment and become the first artist to sign with your company!"
“???”
After drinking, feeling happy, and slapping the face, Wei Fatzi and Qian Zhong lay on the bed and fell asleep.
After Lu Yihong's phone call, Lu Yuan couldn't sleep.
Lu Yuan walked out of the house and looked at the moon in the sky, and then looked at the signboard of "remote" entertainment, and suddenly felt that this signboard was a little crooked.
Sign up for our "remote" entertainment?
This Lao Lu took the wrong medicine, right?
Give up Joaquin and don't sign, sign our leather bag company?
Neurotic!
…………………………
"You're crazy!"
"Sister Xia, I'm not crazy, I see a big opportunity!"
"Neurotic, give up a big company like Joaquin and go to a leather bag company like a remote one?"
"Sister Xia, you don't understand Ah Yuan, you don't know what kind of person Ah Yuan is!"
"You know, all I know is that he's a ruffian scoundrel!"
"Yes, I know! He's not a scoundrel! He's a very ambitious, ambitious, and wise man! The birth of "Buried Alive" proves that he has been planning before! I roughly know what he's planning, and besides, his team is the happiest team I've stayed since my debut, everyone is happy, happy, and has dreams, so I want to go!"
"You're crazy! You must be crazy! I'm going to call the mental hospital!"
"I'll go to the "remote" company the day after tomorrow!"
"What are you going to do!"
"I'm going to talk to him face to face, after all, he rejected me......"
“????”
Rejected you?
