Chapter 171: Elder Fang!
In the company's conference room, Fang Bei was scrolling through Weibo.
Because the young lady has been turned off, he can light up the mobile phone screen in a bright light.
Sure enough, Tom's interview has been on the top news of various companies.
The first hot search was not surprisingly taken.
Well, it's just a recipe for iron-clad headlines.
Every time the news with him as the main body is always in the back.
Only news with him in the news will make headlines, and hell.
This news is just an edited short video, which is a simple question that the host asked Tom "What is your favorite Chinese food?" during the interview with the sixth set of countries.
Then Tom said that it was "a dish made by Fang, although it is very spicy, but it is absolutely unforgettable after eating".
Then the hostess discovered the new world and began to ask questions about Fang Bei.
For example, "How do you know Director Fang", "It was rumored that you had a night meeting with Director Fang before, is it true", "Director Fang actually knows how to cook" and other questions.
And Tom was honest with all of them.
The main reason is that Fang Bei's meal of "Sichuan cuisine super doubled" impressed him too much, and his tongue had no sense of taste when he ate the next day, and it took two days to recover......
Then, as expected, the host asked the long-awaited question from Tom: "Mr. Smith, may I ask why you are looking for Fang Dao?
Tom smiled slightly and looked at the camera, as if he was looking at Fang Bei: "Because I made an agreement with Fang at the beginning." β
The reporter asked: "What agreement?"
Tom laughed, and he laughed badly: "We agreed that if my film outperformed his company's superhero movie at the box office in China, he would come to Hollywood." β
End of video.
It was this sentence that completely detonated the Internet!
"Damn?!Director Fang is going to enter Hollywood?"
"I can't stand it! Director Fang thinks this group of people in China is too vegetable? No wonder they haven't said they want to make movies for months!"
"No wonder! Some bigwigs analyzed before that the reason why Director Fang handed over these two movies to others to shoot was to cultivate domestic successors!"
"No! Have you forgotten this foreigner's provocation to the director? Shouldn't we boycott "Captain America" and watch "Your Name" and "The Grandmaster" a few more times? And to be honest, these two movies are not bad!"
"Well said! I'm ready to brush more before you're ready to go for more. (Picture)"
Behind him were movie tickets for several days in a row.
The topic behind it has been crooked, and Fang Bei has no intention of continuing to read it.
But he found a problem.
Second Brother Su said lightly: "It seems that you also feel it, obviously everyone wants to boycott that movie and support your company's film, but why are the box offices of your two movies so much worse than each other." β
Fang Bei didn't speak.
That's exactly what he thought.
No matter how Wu Kai says it, he is also a movie made under his own name, and he is also the orthodox successor of his "king".
In fact, the box office of 500 million yuan in the first year is already very good, and the final result must be 1.5 billion.
This is basically able to catch up with his own "Shadow of Light".
Even if netizens are fighting with each other, everything is normal.
So even if "The Grandmaster" is worse than "Captain America", it can't be twice as bad, right?
Second Brother Su crossed his fingers to support his chin: "I also noticed that something was wrong, so I went to investigate." Then my informant told me...... This is someone swiping the box office for each other. β
Fang Bei raised his eyebrows slightly: "It's unlikely, Tom is not that kind of person." β
What else is called an informant?
Second Brother Su, do you still play undercover games?
"I'm not saying that Tom Smith is brushing the box office, but some people in the country don't want to see you win. β
Fang Bei smiled: "Measure the material resources of the film and television industry, and make friends happy? Aren't they afraid that friends will be surprised?"
Spend money to help people brush up on the box office?
Just to me?
What do these guys have in their brains?
"Where did you get that? Sounds interesting. "After all, this world is over early in the morning, Second Brother Su chuckled, "Because a 'own person' who does not obey discipline is more uncomfortable for them than an outsider who can cooperate." Especially when this 'own person' is better than them, and they find that they can't control you. β
According to Second Brother Su's investigation, the real domestic box office of "Captain America" should be around six or seven billion, and the rest...... Mostly ghost fields.
The main reason is that he took his father's order to talk to other theaters, wanting to increase the number of films in "The Grandmaster" and "Your Name".
But the other party expressed helplessness, saying that either it was a ghost field or it was locked, and they didn't have a way.
And it's not really a ghost field, because someone really goes to see it......
The other party didn't know where to get an activity of downloading what APP to send movie tickets directly.
It's a good deal.
"And this kind of operation?" Fang Bei was speechless, "Aren't they afraid of overturning?
"There are more stupid people. Daddy Su didn't care, "Last week, my company's security guard caught two people, and they are our company's customers. Do you know why they were arrested? They actually wanted to sneak into my office and steal information! Haha! They were under the surveillance camera, and they took a clear picture! You said that they are also the bosses of my company, and it is not stupid to do such a thing? But there are such people in the world. β
Farewell: "......"
I think there is still a logic, you really don't have any logic in this reality......
"So what should I do? Fight back?
"No, you don't have to do anything. Second Brother Su pushed his glasses, "Director Smith has already been angry after learning about this matter today, and I'm afraid he will poke this matter out soon." β
Fang Bei nodded.
Come to think of it, with Tom's haughty nature, it's strange that he doesn't get angry.
While we were chatting, Fang Bei's phone rang.
He glanced at the caller prompt and raised an eyebrow.
The caller was none other than Tom Smith.
"Hello, how is Tom ~ Huaguo's food tour going?"
"......" There was silence for a few seconds on the other side, and Tom's sighing voice was heard, "Fang, I'm sorry, I'll give you an explanation for the box office." I plan to directly terminate the cooperation with the other party's film and television company and directly let the film be screened in China. β
"There's no need for this, and the audience in our country hasn't offended you, right? Your movie is good, you can't stop everyone from watching it, right?" Fang Bei smiled, "But I want to say one thing in advance, Tom, I'm going to work hard to pull the box office, and don't say that I won't win when the time comes." β
Tom's laughter came from the other side: "Sorry, Fang. I don't think I'm going to lose, I'm going back tonight, and when you come to Hollywood, I'll treat you with the best wine and make amends. β
The phone hung up, Fang Bei looked up and said: "That's fine, I'll post a Weibo to promote it later, and let fans go to the theater to watch our movie." β
He is still very confident in the "120E brainless powder"!
Father Su immediately got up: "It's just right, I still have to go to Los Angeles, second, come with me." β
He came here to stop by...... That's weird!
He's here for purpose!
The first is to see how the relationship between Xiao Fang's child and his baby daughter is, and the other thing is ......
Fang Bei asked, "Uncle Su, what are you doing in Los Angeles?"
That's what Daddy Su was waiting for!
Hearing this, he squinted and smiled: "I have a whole street of faΓ§ade and a whole high-end residential building in Los Angeles, and I will collect the rent." β
Just hundreds of thousands, can he use his old man to do it himself?
Of course not!
Money is just a number to him!
But he was very happy to see Fang Bei's expression after hearing this!
No way, the life of a rich person is so unpretentious and boring.
Fang others are stupid.
Why are you showing off in front of me for this?
That's what I heard, right?
You are a big guy who doesn't know how much you have a net worth, and you still show off like me as young as I am......
Seeing the three members of the Su family leaving, Fang Bei took out his mobile phone and posted a promotional Weibo out.
Then he smiled at Wu Kai, who didn't dare to come out just now: "Wait for the box office explosion, brothers! Our goal is 200 million!"
............
After the eldest lady got on the plane back to the capital, Second Brother Su took out the phone and dialed out.
"Well done. β
He rarely lit a cigarette: "You can stop fooling Lu Shengyan to brush the box office, isn't Lu Shengyan looking for a water army? β
"By the way, just now that kid from Fang Bei posted a promotional Weibo, and then he went all out to help him reach the top of the box office. β
"Huh?" Second Brother Su's face suddenly changed, "You said there was a problem with that kid's Weibo?"
Hanging up the phone, he boarded the trumpet and clicked on Fang Bei's Weibo.
I saw the latest one, and he only said one sentence:
""Your Name" and "The Grandmaster" are really good! Kneel down and beg everyone to come and see it! I really don't want to go to Hollywood!"
Isn't that normal?
Second Brother Su frowned, and suddenly felt that something was wrong.
He pulled down and looked at the comments, and then the whole person was speechless: "Stinky boy, are you the tease invited by the other side?"
I saw that the most liked Weibo below were......
"Damn! Director Fang admitted! He really bet it!"
Does it mean that as long as the two movies written by Director Fang are not as good at the box office as "Captain America...... He's going to go to Hollywood and make movies?"
"Well, guys, I have a bold idea......
"To tell you the truth, I have ...... too"
"Hey, hey, hey......"
............
Looking at the loveless eyes of Liu Mang and Wu Kai, Fang Bei scratched his cheeks in embarrassment: "What's the situation......?"
Wu Kai wanted to cry without tears: "It's over...... It's all over......"
Liu Mang felt the same and patted him on the shoulder solemnly: "Thin monkey, mourn." β
Fang Bei couldn't sit still: "No! Can you blame me for this? I'm obviously just promoting movies normally!"
"Are you promoting this old Fang?" Liu Mang's mobile phone was about to press on Fang Bei's face, "What do you tell me about, 'I really don't want to go to Hollywood'? Aren't you suggesting that fans are stepping up?"
Although what I said earlier is not good, it is basically publicity.
But what does this last sentence mean?
With everyone's understanding of the fact that "Fang Don't plan to go to Hollywood, he is entrusting domestic superhero movies to others".
Doesn't this mean that you don't ask everyone to watch less of their own two movies, and watch other people's movies a few more times?
Fang Bei is really speechless now.
You guys really can't read it randomly......
