Chapter 710: Box Office Curve

Looking at this film review article titled "My Name is Charlotte", Liu Hongtao and others did not look very good.

As the saying goes, your family knows your own business.

Liu Hongtao, who is the producer of "Charlotte's Troubles", Peng Damo, who is the screenwriter and assistant director, and Yan Fei, who is the director, can be regarded as the people who are most familiar with this project.

In all fairness, although this film review article inevitably has the characteristics of 'laughing and scolding are all articles' of online text, the problems listed in this article are really objectively existing in "Charlotte's Troubles".

After being bored for a long time, Liu Hongtao spoke first.

"Fang Bo, you also know my situation, we are all laymen in the film market......"

"Yo, you'll know you're a layman. ”

Fang Bo smiled coldly in his heart, but his face remained silent.

As the 'old man' of the distribution department of Wanda Pictures, Fang Bo's connections in the company are not bad.

Happy Twist once tried to introduce a distribution company in the circle, although the senior management of Wanda Pictures did not publicly explain it to the front-line employees in order not to shake the morale of the military, but Fang Bo has worked in Wanda Pictures for more than ten years, and he still heard some rumors.

As an employee of the distribution department of Wanda Pictures, Fang Bo's source of income is not only the company's fixed salary, but also a certain percentage of the total distribution income for each film released.

On the one hand, this kind of regulation can stimulate the enthusiasm of employees and tie them to the film to be released, and on the other hand, it is also so that employees will not slack off, and the introduction of Happy Twist into other distribution companies will inevitably reduce the income of Fangbo's team......

Blocking people's money is like killing parents!

This is also the reason why Fang Bo doesn't treat Liu Hongtao very much.

However, since the other party admitted that he was short and was in front of so many people, Fang Bo felt that he didn't need to worry so much about him.

"Mr. Liu, you are polite, what you said before still has a certain amount of truth, and it also has a certain reference value for our work......

, reference value......

You might as well just say it's useless......

Liu Hongtao's old face flushed, and he forcibly continued what he just said: "Judging from the situation a few days ago, the box office trend of "Charlotte's Troubles" has been steadily rising in recent days, and you just said that this film review appeared on October 2nd, and now it is October 6th, even if it has an impact, it will not only show up now, right?"

After listening to Liu Hongtao's question, Fang Bo hadn't opened his mouth yet, and Yan Fei and Peng Damo, who were sitting next to him, couldn't sit still.

The two of them are not like Liu Hongtao, who usually don't surf the Internet much.

For normal netizen comments, two or three days is actually the time that can really make an impact.

Sure enough, after listening to Liu Hongtao's question, Fang Bo smiled slightly and explained: "Mr. Liu, this actually shows that the movie review I just took out is indeed the spontaneous behavior of netizens. ”

If there was a promoter, this film review would have been rumored a long time ago, and the impact on "Charlotte's Troubles" would only be greater. ”

"Then can we find this netizen and ask him to withdraw or revise his film review?"

"Well, this shouldn't be possible," Fang Bo hurriedly stopped the other party's unrealistic idea, "Hudou.com is strictly confidential about the information of registered netizens, and although the author of this film review has criticized the content of the movie, strictly speaking, the other party did not make up the facts......"

Speaking of Fang Bo, Liu Hongtao and several people understood the meaning of his words.

The other party did not fabricate the facts,

The other party did not target the initiators and boycotts of the movie "Charlotte's Troubles".

Even the other party didn't have any follow-up actions at all......

Whether it's netizens who support him, or those thousands of replies,

It's all an automatic and spontaneous behavior of netizens.

So strictly speaking, the other party didn't do anything at all except write a movie review on the Internet......

What else can you do with other people in this situation?

Not to mention that Wanda Pictures and Hudouwang have no contacts, even if Liu Hongtao and others call the police, the police will not take any action!

This is the Celestial Empire of socialism, is it good without mosquito meat!

Besides, people are just ordinary netizens, after watching the movie, write something to express their views, can you manage it?

Such a rash door-to-door to ask people to revise what they wrote, what if people don't want to?

Could it be that Wanda Pictures is not able to fight to the death?

You Happy Twist is a novice in this industry, and you may be naΓ―ve, and you may still be a big one, but we Wanda can't afford to lose this person.

Seeing that his thinking had obviously deviated from Liu Hongtao, Fang Bo felt that he had the obligation to put forward his own professional suggestions to the other party, "Mr. Liu, the question now is no longer the time to entangle whether this netizen should revise the film review, now that three days have passed, except for this film review, other unfavorable content for the movie has begun to appear, and it is obviously meaningless to do this kind of thing now." ”

"That'...... Fang Bo, you have been in this industry for many years and are well-informed, do you have any suggestions for the current situation?"

"What we should do now is to pull up the daily box office of the movie, so as to force the theater side not to cut the box office of "Charlotte's Troubles". ”

"This ...... The problem is that now I think about what you just said, many viewers already know more or less about the situation of our movie, people just don't enter the scene, what can we do?" Liu Hongtao lowered his head and thought about it, and said tentatively: "Or, let's increase the publicity again?"

β€œβ€¦β€¦ I don't recommend using this method," Fang Bo directly voted against Liu Hongtao's plan, "Mr. Liu, in my opinion, the current publicity of "Charlotte's Troubles" is definitely enough, if it continues to increase, it is difficult to say whether it will cause disgust from the audience. ”

The reason why Fang Bo rejected Liu Hongtao's proposal was naturally because of his small calculations.

Wanda Pictures has internal regulations that the higher the distribution cost of all the films that the company invests in, the less the proportion of bonuses that the publicity and distribution department can ultimately receive.

Although what Liu Hongtao said is not impossible, judging from Fang Bo's experience for so many years, he really thinks that the current publicity and distribution of "Charlotte's Troubles" is enough, and Fang Bo really doesn't think much of Liu Hongtao's 'indecisive and smashing money'......

"Mr. Liu, I don't think we really need to be in a hurry like this," Yan Fei, who didn't speak for a while, whispered: "Although the box office results of our film have fluctuated a little in the past two days, hasn't our film already recovered its costs and achieved profitability? ”

"Alas...... Xiao Yan can see it clearly," Liu Hongtao nodded and sighed, "At this time, even if "Charlotte's Troubles" will be offline tomorrow, we don't have to worry about the bad prospects of the follow-up movie, not to mention that there are hundreds of people who are the same, and those who like it will naturally have those who don't like it, and our movies are not money, how can it please everyone, I am too persistent." ”

"And I've seen the movie release schedule in the last month, other movies don't pose a threat to us, and it's still very possible for "Charlotte's Troubles" to break one billion at the box office. ”

"That...... Mr. Liu, it is said that Molong Media may upgrade one of their company's films. ”

"Molong? They also have a movie this month, what's the name?"

It is an online adaptation of a movie called "Embroidered Spring Knife: Shura Battlefield". ”

"Martial arts films? Then don't worry. ”

"Let's hope so......"
