Chapter 38, scared to pee

As the movie plays, the supernatural events become more and more intense, and the terrifying atmosphere becomes more and more compelling.

"Ahh

With a scream!

The lights in the screening room suddenly come on, and the movie is over.

"Harry, it's over, why don't you leave!"

Murphy couldn't help but say as the audience walked out of the screening hall with each other in their arms, while his old buddy was still sitting motionless in his seat.

"Yes, can you wait a while? Murphy!" Harry's face was a little ugly.

"What's the matter, are you sick, I'll call an ambulance!" Looking at Harry's face, Murphy was a little anxious.

"It's not Murphy, I'm just peeing! I'm scared!" Harry whispered, his head tucked into his arms.

"I'm scared to pee, why are you ......" Murphy couldn't stop crying and laughing when he saw the water stains on the ground.

……

"When will this movie be shown next, I want to watch it again!"

"How can I see it again, I have to watch it three times, not five!" exclaimed Anna.

……

"This movie was really popular!"

As soon as he came out of the screening hall and saw Lei Weidong and others surrounded by the audience, Murphy couldn't help but say, "Although it is a pseudo-documentary like "The Blair Witch", I have to say that the idea of applying it to the haunted house is really great!"

"Then you keep an eye on it, I'll go back first!" Seeing that no one was paying attention to him, Harry left first.

"Ladies and gentlemen, the next screening will be held in an hour, if you really like this movie, you can help us promote it and let more people know about our movie!"

Lei Weidong and Ada are not good at English and can't give speeches on stage, so Li Yan's characteristics as strong women come into play.

She stood on the booth and shouted.

"Okay, I'm going to call someone, call all my buddies over, and let them know what the scariest movie is!" the boy who was shivering in fear inside screamed and ran away.

"Yes, let's call people! Let more people know about this movie!"

The boy's approach was a wake-up call, and many people ran away screaming.

"Hello, did you make this movie?"

Watching the crowd disperse, Murphy walked over.

"I am a film investor, this is my partner and director Mr. Lei!" According to the negotiated model, Li Yan pushed Lei Weidong out and acted as a translator on the side.

"Hello, Mr. Ray, I'm Murphy from Fox Searchlight!"

"Hello, Mr. Murphy, it's a pleasure to meet you!

Lei Weidong said and invited Murphy to the back of the booth.

There is a small lounge here, which is just right for good conversations.

"Both, I want to ask who owns the film rights, and whether your company is in the United States or abroad!"

Americans like to get straight to the point, and Murphy asked his own questions as soon as he sat down.

"The copyright of the film is in the hands of Li Yan and me, and the film is invested by the two of us. Lei Weidong Murphy's purpose in asking this is nothing more than to confirm the copyright, "Although our company is not in North America, the script has been notarized by the Copyright Society." ”

"I see!" Murphy nodded, "Let's put it this way, Director Lei, this movie is very interesting, I need to bring some friends to watch it!"

"No problem!" Lei Weidong smiled and handed over the business card, "We will continue to screen here during the film festival, and Mr. Murphy is welcome to come to the door to give opinions!"

"Yes, I hope to have the opportunity to cooperate in the future!" Murphy's purpose is to connect and get acquainted.

Now that the purpose has been achieved, he will not stay any longer and get up to say goodbye.

"I hope we have a chance to cooperate!" Seeing that Murphy was leaving, Lei Weidong did not stay, and directly shook hands with him and said goodbye.

"I finally got a buyer, so let him go!" Watching Murphy leave, Li Yan couldn't help but complain.

"It's just the first screening now, and all the people I see are small people, so wait, don't worry! I have confidence in the movie!"

If when he first came to Toronto, Lei Weidong was still uneasy in his heart, but now seeing the audience's reaction so strongly, Lei Weidong knows that the movie has been successful.

------

"That's it, that's where I said!" Before he left the field, a big boy came in with seven or eight companions.

"Such a small place!" the companion looked at the booth and the humble screening room, and couldn't help but complain, "The movie is really as good as you say, so scary!"

"Of course there is, if you don't believe it, let's make a bet, if the movie is not good, I will treat you to a big meal, if it is good, I will eat you this week!" Seeing that everyone didn't believe his words, the boy was angry.

"Bet on it!" his companions laughed at the boy's angry appearance.

"However, if the movie is not good, beware of us K-you!"

"Yes, the movie is not good, just be careful, don't be scared for a while!"

Whether a low-budget movie can be popular depends entirely on word-of-mouth and word of mouth!

Like "The Blair Witch", a movie with an investment of only tens of thousands of dollars and millions of advertising dollars is the only one even in 2019.

Because of the excellent reputation!

Ten minutes after leaving, there were already about 40 people in the screening room, most of whom were introduced by the first wave of audiences.

If it weren't for these people, it would be nice to have more than a dozen people in this wave of screenings.

Just when the movie is about to start screening!

The door to the screening room was suddenly pushed open from the outside, and Murphy walked in with four men!

Seeing the disgusted eyes of many viewers, Murphy showed an embarrassed smile and led everyone to find a seat in the back.

"Good news Xiaolei, I counted it just now, and the audience of the second wave of screenings has reached fifty, and it is almost full, we need to install additional stools!" Li Yan looked at the simple screening hall, a little angry.

Why is the place so small, only about 60 seats, if only 800 seats could be placed!

"If you add a stool, how many people can sit in it!" Lei Weidong looked back at Ada.

"At most, there are more than eighty, no more, this is not our country, even mobile screening halls have strict consumption requirements!" Ada also wants to add a few more stools to let more people know about his own movies, but this is the case, what can be done!

"It's okay, implement the second plan! If there are too many people in Da Ge to get in, you hang a small screen on the booth!"

"Hang a small screen, Director Lei, you're going to show "Ghost Shadow" outside, it's not good!"

"Who said I was going to show "Ghost Record", don't forget that we still have a movie!"

Using "Ghost Shadow" to attract popularity and taking the opportunity to sell "Nightclub" is Lei Weidong's established plan, and of course such a good opportunity cannot be wasted.
