There are as many as 13 production companies in "Small Times 4", but they basically share the accounts with money. The ones who really have a say in this project are Leshi Pictures, Heli Chenguang and the most wanton culture.

And Guo Xiaosi, the owner of the most wanton culture, is also a shareholder of Heli Chenguang and Leshi Pictures, so the schedule of "Small Times 4" cannot be avoided by him in any way. Guo Xiaosi is in Shanghai at the moment, and it is not worth flying to the capital for this matter, so he held a video conference.

In the capital, in the multimedia office of Leshi Films, Zhang Zhao sat with Li Li, the boss of Heli Chenguang, looking at Guo Xiaosi sitting on the wide sofa in the video screen, and listening to the voice coming from the stereo.

"Then Lu Lin really uses us as soft persimmons, let's set the film for July 9th in April, and now he chooses No. 10, isn't this playing sniper? Why doesn't he also choose No. 9? Or let's not fight him head-on on the 10th!"

Guo Xiaosi was a little excited, mainly because last summer's "Small Times 3" bumped into "Male Soldier Company", and he lost a bit miserably. This made Guo Xiaosi, who was arrogant and arrogant, very unhappy, but he also knew that he couldn't compete with Lu Lin for a while. After the completion of "Small Times 4", he began to prepare for "Jue Ji", preparing to enter the field of Chinese special effects blockbusters and compete with Lu Lin.

I don't know if he didn't wait for him to make any moves, Lu Lin actually came to "snipe" his "Small Times 4". This kind of thing is really unbearable for uncles, but unbearable for aunts!

And on the video, businessman Zhang Zhao actually had a hint of interest. To say that the worst losses in front of Longlin Pictures in the past two years are Huayi, and the other is Leshi. Especially in the Chinese New Year file at the end of 14 years, "On the Taiping Wheel" failed miserably at the hands of "Nuwa Mending the Sky", and the box office results were miserable, which made Leshi Pictures, which opened a guarantee of 800 million yuan, lose money.

In addition to the "small era" three and four in the same schedule competition, it can really be described as a new hatred and old hatred, and the road is narrow!

"If we withdraw at this time, netizens will think that we are afraid of Lu Lin, once we have such a reputation, we will be short of Lu Lin everywhere!" Zhang Zhao said meaningfully.

Li Li felt a little bad, and secretly said in his heart: "We are already dwarves!" When thinking about this, he subconsciously glanced at the video screen.

Guo Xiaosi in it shouted: "We must not withdraw the file, our film has a low cost, there is implantation, and the selling point box office will return to the cost." Besides, I made so much money before, are you still afraid of losing money?"

Li Li felt a little unlucky, but Zhang Zhao didn't care and said: "Indeed, with so many fans supporting, the loss will definitely not be!"

Guo Xiaosi said: "Since this is the case, it is better to release the film one day later and release it with Lu Lin's "Three-Body Problem". Let's see if his sci-fi blockbusters have a large audience, or if my "Little Times" is popular!"

Li Li said: "It seems to be someone else!"

Just before he could say it, Zhang Zhao said again: "Okay, that's how it should be." Released on the same day, the film schedule of "The Three-Body Problem" will definitely be less than 50%, and it is really impossible to say who will win the crown at that time!"

Li Li couldn't hold back anymore and said: "It's just that in this case, our first-day film schedule will not be too high, and both sides will lose, will it be a little worthless!"

Zhang Zhao said: "This is called unbearable, no need to endure anymore." When "Longmen Flying Armor" and "Jinling Thirteen Hairpins" were released on the same schedule, Yu Dong found the General Administration of Optoelectronics and wanted to coordinate the release time of the two films, but Zhang Weipingleng did not agree, and refused to show "Jinling Thirteen Hairpins" in Bona Cinema. Yu Dong was angry, so he simply advanced the schedule and let "Dragon Gate Flying Armor" and "Jinling Thirteen Hairpins" be released on the same day!"

Li Li said: "But those two films didn't win!"

Guo Xiaosi in the video said with a smile: "Now it's different from the past, the market is expanding, the box office can exceed 400 million in a single day, and the two blockbusters can be accommodated." Besides, we have little pressure to return to our capital, so "The Three-Body Problem" is an investment of hundreds of millions of dollars, what are we afraid of!"

Li Li said darkly: "The investment of hundreds of millions of dollars in "The Three-Body Problem" is true, but people have overseas box offices, and the president of the United States is waiting to watch!"

However, these words are only thought about in the heart, but cannot be said outside. It's really because today's Heli Chenguang is too weak, and in terms of development, it all points to Guo Xiaosi's works.

However, it was said that the "three" had been decided, and Happy Pictures issued a statement to the outside world: Due to some technical reasons, the schedule of "Small Times 4" will be postponed by one day and released on July 10. ”

After this announcement was released, it immediately caused an uproar. When ordinary movies are faced with Lu Lin's special effects blockbusters, most of the reactions are to adjust the gears. "Small Times 4" was actually advanced by a day, which is clearly to be tough with "The Three-Body Problem", a box office war!

This melon is too big, enough for the audience to eat for a while!

Netizens watched the excitement, and the filmmakers of several movies in the same period in the summer season held meetings one after another to discuss the issue of schedules, pondering whether to fight or escape!

The most tangled is the boss of "Monster Hunt" and distributor Eucalyptus Pictures, Jiang Zhiqiao.

It can really be said that there is no one line of blessing and disaster, and "Monster Hunt" is also tortuous and difficult. worked hard to finish the movie, and as a result, he starred as a bad artist. had to delete all the scenes of Ke Zhendong, replace Jing Boran and reshoot it, and set it for July 16. "The Three-Body Problem", which is the most anticipated and eye-catching by the audience in the clinker summer file, is actually set for the 10th.

The two pieces are less than a week apart, and it's still not enough insurance!

The initial cost of "Monster Hunt" was as high as 280 million, and after Jing Boran re-filmed, it cost an additional 70 million. Now the cost is as high as 3.5, and the box office needs to exceed 1 billion to have the possibility of recovering the cost.

However, this movie does not have the blessing of IP, and there are no famous directors or big names, in this highly competitive summer file, it is too close to "The Three-Body Problem", and Jiang Zhiqiao really has no confidence.

After discussing with several other investors and directors, Huanle Pictures finally posted on its official Weibo: Due to technical reasons, the release time of "Monster Hunt" was adjusted to Friday, July 30.

In their minds, the 20-day distance from "The Three-Body Problem" is a relatively safe schedule. And there are no decent blockbusters in August, the only downside is that students may spend the remaining half of the month frantically making up their summer homework and then going to class.

But the cost of 350 million is here, and the pressure to return to the cost is huge. Coupled with the unfortunate events of changing people and remaking them, Jiang Zhiqiao and others really didn't have the courage to compete with Lu Lin in July.

It can be said that as soon as "The Three-Body Problem" came out, the movie schedule in the summer of July was more or less adjusted. is the first time to be a director, directing "Pancake Man", Da Peng, has no idea of changing files.

In particular, Mr. Benshan called him and said that he led a group of disciples such as "Northeast F4" to help him at the premiere. Da Peng was moved when he heard this, and said: "Master, it's not a big deal, your health is not good, just leave your house and rest, just call my four senior brothers to come!"

Teacher Benshan said: "If you kowtow to me and call Master, then I have to protect you." It's okay, this body is okay, it's no problem to participate in a premiere!
