459. There are comings and goings

Wang Zhonglei, who came to Nie Wei's office, put a recent statistical report on Nie Wei's desktop, and then sat opposite Nie Wei with an angry face. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info

"Originally, there was 30 percent of the film scheduling rate, but now there are 157 screens missing, and only about 26 percent are left. There was suppressed but hard to hide anger in Wang Zhonglei's voice.

You must know that this is not after 2015, when the number of screens in the country has already exceeded 20,000, and 157 screens are nothing in front of such big data, but this is the beginning of 2006, and the total number of screens in the country is only more than 4,000, and this 157 screens is definitely a pretty big number.

"Except for the Media Asia Cinema Line, the New Literature and Art Cinema Line, and the Yizhu Cinema Line, what about the rest of the cinemas?" Nie Wei asked as he flipped through the report.

When it came to other theaters, Wang Zhonglei's face was a little soothed, and he replied: "The rest of the theaters have maintained a very good attitude of cooperation. ”

This news is quite comforting for Nie Wei, and the starting point of 26% is not bad, as long as the movie is good, Nie Wei believes that the film scheduling rate can still be snatched back.

It's just that he was put on the spot, and Nie Wei was really a little unhappy in his heart.

According to the investigation report, 150 of the 157 screens lost by "Twenty Years Old" were allocated to an upcoming movie, and the production company behind this movie, the film company officially invested by Li Gongzi, is clear at a glance, and it is still those people who do this.

The last time I censored my own movie, this time I was tired of being in the theater again, even if Nie Wei is a mud bodhisattva, he will be really hot.

"Brother Zhonglei, in the past few days, I have asked you to use more heart to stabilize the current cinema operators, and I am also ready to prepare, since the other party has given us such a big gift, I will also return to them. ”

"What kind of gift?" Hearing Nie Wei say this, Wang Zhonglei temporarily put down his anger and asked curiously, ten minutes later, Wang Zhonglei's complexion that came out of Nie Wei's office had recovered as before, which made all the employees very curious, what did Nie Wei say to Wang Zhonglei, who could coax the general manager whose face was as black as ink just now as if he had extinguished the fire.

And after Wang Zhonglei left Nie Wei's office, Nie Wei also immediately began his own revenge.

At this moment, in a film company far away in the south, a general manager surnamed Song was smiling and asking for credit from the Hong Kong capital who was sitting opposite.

"Mr. Liu, this time we offended Huayi miserably, four percentage points, one hundred and fifty-seven screens, which is equivalent to directly ripping a piece of meat on the other party's body, it is estimated that we have now become a thorn in Huayi's side, a thorn in the flesh. Manager Song said helplessly, but his tone was very relaxed, and he even had two more ridicules, obviously not taking offending Huayi seriously this time.

And the agent Liu from Hong Kong, who was sitting opposite, also listened to Manager Song's words with a smile on his face, and then said with an appreciative face: "Manager Song, your performance this time is very good, I will definitely help you say a few more kind words in front of my son when I return to Hong Kong." ”

"Where, where, it's mainly Mr. Liu's handiwork, I'm just an errand talker, without your strategy, this thing can't be done at all." Manager Song complimented him, but he was very disdainful in his heart.

This surnamed Liu spent millions to do this, in the eyes of Manager Song, it is simply synonymous with straw bales, after all, there are millions of dollars that the surname Liu embezzled from all aspects of the movie's expenses, and now it can be used in the movie, but he has to throw money to stumble on others, although he has won a part of the screen, but compared with the pay, this achievement cannot be returned at all.

But who gives the family the right, although the company says that he is the general manager, but in fact, the person in front of him is the general manager, the master behind the family has more than 60% of the company's shares, which is also the real helplessness of Manager Song, his career is just a plaything for revenge in the eyes of others, so naïve, Manager Song is also worried about his future, I only hope that this time I can make the person behind him completely angry, and don't be so naïve in the future.

What this general manager Song didn't expect was that not long ago, Nie Wei made the same evaluation as him, if he knew Nie Wei's mood, maybe this general manager would really find a feeling called 'bosom friend'.

And after the person in charge of Liu returned to his office, the excitement on his face could no longer be hidden, he did this to please the person behind him, more than ten years of workplace experience told him that if you want to climb up, work performance is secondary, and it is more important to please the master.

He didn't realize that he had embarked on a detour, and he was still secretly rejoicing in this time's handwriting, when Nie Wei's movie performance declined, he could justifiably report the good news to the master behind him, and when the master was happy, his chances of going to the next level would be quite big.

General Manager Song's ability is not small, after all, he has been in this industry for more than 20 years, and the person in charge of Liu embezzled such a large amount of money, under the manipulation of General Manager Song, no one even noticed the reduction of publicity and other expenses, which has to say that the general manager's industry experience is really rich enough, spending a little money to do big things, talents.

Of course, this also has a lot to do with the strong film lineup that General Manager Song's company participated in.

The director is Liu Zhenwei, who has filmed countless classic comedies, who is also the screenwriter of this movie, and the cast includes Xie Tingfeng, Cai Zhuoyan, Chen Bolin and Liu Jialing, and what gives General Manager Song room to play is that this film is also known as the orthodox sequel to "Journey to the West", which once had a good reputation in the mainland.

This makes countless audiences look forward to it, after all, the two "Journey to the West" series of Xing Ye are too classic, and countless popular lines have been talked about so far, even after more than ten years, the jokes that are not outdated, as well as the superb acting skills of the actors, etc.

For so many years, everyone doesn't know how many times they have been looking forward to the sequel to "Journey to the West", and now it has finally arrived, which makes this movie press Nie Wei's "Twenty Years Old Again" on the new film expectation list for a while, perhaps this is why the person in charge of Liu dares to compete with Nie Wei's new film at the same time, and Manager Song is also willing to cooperate, because in their hearts, their movies will not lose.

Since spending a lot of money to get more film scheduling rates, the current sequel to "Journey to the West", the movie called "The Great Sage of Love", has a 27% film scheduling rate, just one percentage point higher than "Twenty Years Old Again", this kind of thing Liu has also carefully written down, and this is all data that can be used to invite credit in the future.

There are still three days left before the release of "The Great Sage of Love", and major movie theaters have also started pre-sales of movie tickets.

The name of the orthodox sequel to "Journey to the West" is not fake, the first day of pre-sale exceeded five million, according to this momentum, this movie is estimated to get tens of millions of pre-sale data before release, and the enthusiasm of the audience has also completely inflated the person in charge of Liu.

On the same day, a lot of media were invited to celebrate, and while boasting about the first-day pre-sale box office data of 5 million, he wished the box office of "The Great Sage of Love" to exceed 100 million.

He is so arrogant, on the one hand, for his own future credit, and on the other hand, for disgusting and disgusting Nie Wei, at the celebration banquet, he mentioned more than once that their movie will rank first in the next few upcoming films, which is obviously aimed at Nie Wei.

In addition, he is actually doing this to promote the movie, this person is still a little smart, with such a big fanfare, those invited media have to write a news for them more or less, which will undoubtedly attract a lot of public attention and will also play a good role in promoting the movie.

But just when they were looking forward to the next day's media efforts, and then pushing behind their movies, an article about "The Great Sage of Love" suddenly appeared on the Internet.

"Without Master Xing, will Journey to the West really be a Journey to the West?"

The title of the article is attractive enough, in the eyes of mainland audiences, Journey to the West and Xing Ye coexist with each other, almost equal, and in the previous publicity of "The Great Sage of Love", it has always been regarded as the orthodox sequel of "Journey to the West", but now it has been suddenly mentioned Xingye, which has really caused a heated discussion among many netizens.

Some people think that as long as the story is exciting, it is okay, but some people think that "Journey to the West" is the kind of nonsensical style comedy movie with Zhou Xingchi's personal characteristics, and without Xingye, there will be no orthodox nonsense, even if you find a big-name actor, it is impossible to really perform the flavor of "Journey to the West".

When the person in charge Liu and Manager Song read this article, the person in charge Liu fell the cup in anger on the spot.

"Who is this guy, is this purely against me!!" The person in charge of Liu roared angrily, there is a reason why he is angry, no matter how you look at the content of the other party's article, it is aimed at "The Great Sage of Love", and it also points to the core point of the propaganda of "The Great Sage of Love", and the most important thing is that there are countless people discussing it below.

Even the person in charge of Liu found that there was a voting system for this topic, which was aimed at whether the movie "The Great Sage of Love" was an authentic sequel, there were only two options, whether or not to count, and what made him feel was that the two options were almost equal.

"Are these people blind, the original big talk was Liu Zhenwei's work, and now he is a director and a screenwriter, and the idea is also a script written according to the idea of big words, this is the orthodox sequel, what is there to question this. Manager Song was also depressed, and it was really depressing to have such a thing before the release.

But what scared him was that this matter always made him feel that it was not so simple.

The person who published the article was just a passerby, claiming to be a fan of Zhou Xingchi, and the tone of the article seemed to be just trying to maintain Xingye's comedy status, but what made him wonder was why the article written by such an ordinary person could be on the hot search list of the blog overnight and be seen by hundreds of millions of netizens.

Manager Song felt that someone must be manipulating behind this, and the biggest possibility was Nie Wei.

After all, the blog is Nie Wei's, and this article was the first to become popular on the blog, so it's no wonder that Manager Song is so skeptical.

"This is probably Nie Wei's ghost, but it's okay, it's just an article, and it can't make much waves. Manager Song told his guess to the person in charge of Liu, and did not forget to comfort him.

In fact, the person in charge of Liu also thought that it was Nie Wei, and most of the anger in his heart was also for this reason, but just like Manager Song said, it was just an article, at most, it was the heat of the day, and maybe it could also create momentum for "The Great Sage of Love", in the opinion of the person in charge of Liu, Nie Wei estimated that he was unwilling to make such a little means, which is not enough.

However, the box office pre-sale data of the next day really slapped the person in charge of Liu in the face, although he had long known that it would decline, but it fell by two million at a time, which still made the person in charge of Liu very depressed in the morning.

But how did he know that yesterday's article was just an appetizer prepared for him by Nie Wei, and the real feast was still to come.

Now that article is still hanging high in the top ten of the hot search list, as long as users who enter the blog can see it, and at the bottom of this article, there are already more than 100,000 comments, all of which are discussing whether this movie can maintain the level of "Journey to the West".

There are both pros and cons, and when one side has the potential to overpower the other, the trolls will be dispatched to rebalance the two sides of the discussion.

And the bigger this controversy, the deeper the impression it will leave on the audience, and the easier it will be for Nie Wei's future plans to be done.

Soon the box office of "Twenty Years Old" also began pre-sales, and this is also the last day of pre-sales of "The Great Sage of Love", and tomorrow, the film will be released.

"The box office pre-sale results on the third day came out, five million and 1 million, which is more than the first day, let's thank you Nie Wei a lot, if there is no article, can we break 10 million with the pre-sale results. When he got the pre-sale box office data on the third day, Manager Song was overjoyed, and all the worries in his heart were gone.

"He's shooting himself in the foot, I thought he was such a smart person, but he turned out to be such a stupid move, and it's a shame that the boy has always regarded him as an opponent. The person in charge of Liu was pride at the moment, and his words were often disdainful when he commented on Nie Wei.

He completely forgot that when the pre-sale box office data came out the next day, he was so scared that he didn't sleep for half the night, and finally fell asleep and had a nightmare, scaring himself half to death.

"By the way, the first-day box office pre-sale data of "Twenty Years Old Again" should also come out, Manager Song, you can ask someone. The person in charge Liu suddenly thought that this was also the first day of pre-sale of Nie Wei's movie, so he was also a little curious and asked Manager Song to ask.

Manager Song quickly found someone to inquire about the news, and within ten minutes, he got the news, Manager Song answered the phone, and he was still smiling at first, and in a few seconds, his eyes suddenly widened, which made the person in charge of Liu, who was watching this on the side, subconsciously chuckle in his heart and felt bad.
