As the president of Zhonghuang Entertainment, one of the local entertainment giants, Bai Chongshi's relationship and connections in the entertainment industry are beyond doubt.

In just two days, he received reliable information through various means.

Maoyan Movie did have a plan for 'box office hype' before, but it has not yet been decided.

Of course, Bai Chongshi thinks that even if it is confirmed, it will be impossible to announce it to the public, after all, this is a shady thing.

He told Xiao Bufan the news he had gotten, which surprised Xiao Bufan, and the thought that he had a little disdain in his heart suddenly disappeared without a trace.

Being able to hear these things from competitors is not something that ordinary people can do.

Xiao Bufan also asked Bai Chongshi curiously, and learned that the other party got the news from Huaxia Brothers Media, and he took a look at Bai Chongshi's magical powers.

But think about it, there is an irreconcilable contradiction between Zhonghuang Entertainment and Oriental DreamWorks, but not with Huaxia Brothers Media.

Like these old giants, they all have a history of decades, and in these decades, all kinds of interests have been entangled, and it is impossible to distinguish the relationship simply by dividing the camp.

Maybe today it is an adversary, tomorrow it is possible to be friends.

Xiao Bufan didn't dwell too much on Bai Chongshi's sources, he got the news, thought about it carefully for a long time, and also discussed it with Bai Chongshi.

It was decided to carry out a 'box office hype' plan for Victory Pictures' racing film this time.

Victory Pictures' new film, Xiao Bufan also invested one or two hundred million, such a large amount of money to invest in, he must at least hear the sound, and then throw money at the box office fraud, which will make the noise a little louder, maybe he can recover the cost and make a small profit.

The most important thing is that through 'box office hype', the financial data generated by the online ticket purchase of timely movies can be improved in the shortest possible time, which will be very good-looking, and further improve the influence and popularity of timely films, which is what Xiao Bufan and Bai Chongshi attach the most importance to.

Moreover, the two of them discussed for a long time and thought about it again and again, and they both believed that this new type of 'box office fraud' was not very risky.

Even if it is discovered by the outside world and the media, it will be exposed at best, and the reputation will only be slightly damaged, and it will not bring substantial consequences, even if there is a negative impact, it will definitely focus more on the movies released by Victory Pictures, rather than on the timely films.

To put it bluntly, Timely Movies is just an Internet e-commerce platform, can some people buy tickets through the Internet, and they can still restrict others from doing so?

The two analyzed this result and decided to wait for the release of the new film of Victory Pictures and immediately start box office hype.

When Xiao Bufan and Bai Chongshi reached a consensus, Xiao Bufan couldn't help but think viciously that if he found out that Yang Ming's "Fast and Furious" was a little abnormal at the box office, he would arrange for someone to expose it, so that guy would fall from the clouds to the mortal world and become the finger of thousands of people.

As for whether the timely movie will also be affected by exposing the other party, Xiao Bufan deliberately ignored it.

In his opinion, as long as he can pay a big price to ruin that person's reputation, he will not hesitate to do it.

At this moment, Yang Ming, who was in the Lion City and was filming in the crew, didn't know this.

However, someone still called Yang Ming to tell him that "Fast and Furious" will be released at that time, and there may be emergencies.

"A while ago, I deliberately asked Hua Mingqiu to hold a meeting to discuss that matter, and then it didn't take long for me to receive Bai Chongshi to inquire about this news, hehe, the other party took the bait, but I estimate that there will definitely be unexpected things happening at that time, Yang Ming should be careful!"

Liu Xinsheng called Yang Ming and said.

Last time, his suggestion of 'box office hype' was vetoed by Yang Ming, and instead asked him to deliberately release the news to attract others to take the bait.

Now it seems that the plan has succeeded.

In the past two days, Liu Xinsheng quickly received the news that Bai Chongshi quietly inquired about Maoyan because he had already made arrangements, and he also heard that there was a lot of movement on the side of the movie in time, and he knew that he was preparing for 'box office hype' at a glance.

The plan went well, he immediately informed Yang Ming, but he also had a lot of worries in his heart.

You must know that this plan is based on the fact that Yang Ming's new film will definitely crush the opponent's movie, in case Yang Ming's new film does not reach the expected popularity, it may be bitten back, and it is considered unwilling to fail and deliberately cause trouble.

At this time, Yang Ming heard Liu Xinsheng's words, thought for a while, and said easily: "Well, that's good, let's sit back and wait for the big drama to begin." ”

Everything he should have prepared was ready, just waiting for everyone to enter.

After several revisions, the document almost summarized all the benefits and disadvantages of 'box office fraud', and waited for someone to detonate the bomb before he could hand over the document to Minister Guo and Tao Lao.

"Yang Ming, the filming of your new drama went well, right?" Liu Xinsheng asked with concern.

"Huh?" Yang Ming was stunned when he heard this, but he quickly reacted and said with a smile: "Everything is going very well, you can rest assured, when, I let you down!"

What are you kidding, if "Furious 5" is not the most successful commercial movie, Yang Ming may admit it, but if you want to talk about racing movies, then apart from a limited number of comparable to "Fast and Furious", he really doesn't know what better racing movies there are.

Maybe there will be in this life, but he doesn't believe that this time Dimei and Victory will be able to make a racing movie that surpasses "Furious 5".

After all, what he took out this time was "Furious 5", a classic that opened in the 3D blockbuster era after 2010 in his previous life, at least with the current film industry in this world, whether foreign or domestic, he can't think of any other film company that can make a classic that surpasses "Furious 5".

Unless it is a miracle, if this is the case, then Yang Ming will also admit it.

"By the way, Yang Ming, should you hold the celebration banquet of "People and Ghosts Are Not Over"?" Liu Xinsheng suddenly asked.

"Huh!"

Hearing this, Yang Ming couldn't help but be stunned, reacted, sighed, and said: "Forget it, I must not be able to leave the crew, anyway, it's all my own family, let's talk about it after the New Year, and give them a big red envelope when the time comes!"

This week, "Ghost Love" has been painted in theaters around the world one after another, this movie was not favored by everyone before, but it has broken many film records in recent years.

This number of days alone, it is estimated that in the past five years, no movie can compare.

The vitality is too strong.

In China, "The Love of People and Ghosts" was released for at least 2 and a half months, which made countless movies unreachable.

In fact, after a month of normal release time, the schedule of "Ghost Love" was basically overwhelming the lowest, with a maximum of one or two shows a day.

But even so, the attendance rate of the theater is very impressive, and many people still choose to watch this movie.

In this case, the theater side will naturally not be easy to paint, although the ticket sales of "Ghost Love" cannot be compared with the beginning, but it is much better than other movies a month after its release, and even some movies that have just been released are not as good as the attendance rate of "Ghost Love".

Such a phenomenon is repeated in theaters around the world.

The box office income of the released movie is very considerable, basically maintaining a high level, and in a profitable situation, the theater chain will naturally not take such a movie offline for no reason.

Although "Ghost Love" can only be released once or twice a day, maybe only four or five a week, even so, there is still a steady box office income.

dragged on and refused to go offline, which surprised many film companies at home and abroad.

The vitality of this film is so strong that it is inversely proportional to its production cost.

Time dragged on and even everyone has forgotten about this movie, it has become a thing of the past.

However, when Oriental DreamWorks officially announced that Yang Ming's last movie "Ghost Love" was officially offline in a small foreign country, the global box office data of this movie was also released.

4.2 billion Chinese dollars!

When many film companies at home and abroad saw this data in the news reports of entertainment media, they were all shocked and shocked, and they felt incredible about Yang Ming's ability to attract money!

50 million!

I heard that the production cost of this love movie is only 50 million Chinese yuan!

Converted into rice dollars, it is less than 17 million rice dollars.

In a blockbuster film produced in Hollywood, it is not as good as the salary of a top superstar, and such a low-cost small production has collected 4.2 billion yuan in the global film market.

What a rebellion against the heavens, what a wickedness.

The rate of return on investment simply breaks everyone's imagination.

The domestic entertainment industry was even more shocked by Yang Ming's "People and Ghosts", everyone had forgotten about this movie, and no one thought that this movie would suddenly pop up again, and the box office would increase by hundreds of millions of yuan again.

Once again, it has become a hot topic.

As fellow film companies, when they saw the global box office data in the news, their eyes were red with envy.

This Oriental DreamWorks has made a fortune again.

This year, not to mention the movies made by other directors, Yang Ming's two movies alone will exceed their income in a year.

"Red Cliff of the Three Kingdoms" has a global box office of 7.5 billion Chinese yuan, and now there is another "Human Ghost Love", with a global box office of 4.2 billion Chinese yuan, and the combined box office of the two films is 11.7 billion Chinese yuan.

After deducting various expenses such as shares, costs, and taxes, all film companies believe that Oriental DreamWorks will earn at least 5 billion Chinese yuan.

It's faster than grabbing money.

It's incredible.

If three or four years ago, someone said that they could make billions of dollars by making two movies, they would definitely be spitted on their faces and daydreaming!

But now that the facts are in front of us, people have to admit that today's film industry is no longer the film industry of a few years ago.

began to change dramatically.

Four years ago, a movie with a production cost of more than 100 million yuan would be called a blockbuster, attracting countless media onlookers and interviews.

But now don't talk about the production cost of 100 million, even if it is 200 million or 300 million, it will not make media reporters move their eyelids, it's too common;

Even fans have been fed by blockbusters in the past few years, and they will never take the production of one or two hundred million to heart again, looking forward to the stars and the moon as before.

It will take at least 500 million to make a blockbuster with a production cost to attract the attention of countless fans.

However, in this situation, Yang Ming successfully counterattacked with a small-budget love movie and achieved a global box office of 4.2 billion against the sky, telling all filmmakers that if you want to achieve a high box office, there is not only one way to make a big investment and a big production.

It is also possible to make it at a small cost!

As long as it's a classic, anything is possible.

The success of "The Love of People and Ghosts" has also attracted praise from many well-known film critics at home and abroad, and Yang Ming's talent has once again been highly praised.

If it is a commercial blockbuster, like "Red Cliff of the Three Kingdoms" to achieve such success, maybe Yang Ming will not be recognized by so many filmmakers.

But "The Love of People and Ghosts" is different.

The fact that a film with a production cost of no more than 50 million Chinese yuan can achieve such amazing box office results is, in their opinion, a miracle in itself.

Many media in China, especially those with official backgrounds, have also devoted a lot of space to news reports and high praise for the success of Yang Ming's film.

In the entertainment industry, many movie peers are amazed, but Yang Ming's terrifying ability to attract money is even more envious.

If its own film company can have such a director, it will definitely be a cash cow.

The speed of making money is estimated to be faster than robbing a bank.

Some film companies also realize that don't forget that "Red Cliff of the Three Kingdoms", which previously attracted 7.5 billion yuan at the global box office, has not yet been released!

I heard that this lower part will be logged in during the Spring Festival, according to the situation of this first part.

The global box office of the next part of "Red Cliff of the Three Kingdoms" exceeded 5 billion, and there should be no pressure.

This year's Oriental DreamWorks is against the sky!

And according to reliable sources, if nothing else, Yang Ming will direct and act again next year to shoot the second part of "Transformers".

has the foundation laid by the first part, and then this second part will inevitably be an irresistible blockbuster!

It's just that now the news that Oriental DreamWorks doesn't have any schedule has come out, and many peers are very eager to know the release schedule of "Transformers", they don't want their blockbuster to collide with this movie, and the result is absolutely miserable.

Even local filmmakers did not expect that Yang Ming, who was previously regarded as able to block Hollywood blockbusters, now not only successfully blocked Hollywood blockbusters, but also beat the other party to the ground, and by the way, many domestic film companies were beaten up.

Such a result was something that no one had expected before.

Now, however, many studios are slowly starting to change.

Even if it is a pig, if it has been taught so many times, it will have a memory, let alone the film industry for commercial profit?

In fact, the local film industry has begun to gradually change in the past two or three years, after the demonstration of several films by Yang Ming.

A powerful giant, learn from Yang Ming to play big investment and big production.

The investment budget of a blockbuster film is now directly starting at 500 million yuan, with a luxurious cast and exquisite special effects, these are all necessary, except for the plot may still be insufficient, there is basically no gap with Hollywood blockbusters in other aspects.

After all, in today's world, compared with Hollywood, the film industry in China is not inferior to technology, nor talent, but concept!

Now, through successive successes, Yang Ming has told all his local counterparts that blockbusters are filmed like this.

In addition, Yang Ming's success is not all achieved by large-scale investment and large-scale production of films, at the beginning he also started with small-budget films.

"The Girl We Chased Together in Those Years", "My Savage Girlfriend", these are all classic low-cost love works, especially "Human Ghost Love", which has just been drawn offline, is a classic case with small and big bo!

Yang Ming used this success to tell everyone that as long as the movie itself is excellent, the plot is brilliant, and the content that caters to the audience and fans want to see is not shoddy, and it can be a big success with a small cost.

The success of "The Love of People and Ghosts" has made more film peers begin to learn and study the path taken by Yang Ming, and everything about him has been talked about by many directors and regarded as a classic.

It's just that what is unknown is that under the aura of countless successes, there are also undercurrents that are surging and brewing to erupt.
