Chapter 143 "Love Saint"
"Boss, last night, the box office of "Slaying the Wolf" was 840,000."
Yang Huan raised his eyebrows when he heard this: "Oh? Are all the screening halls full? β
"Yes, and there are a couple of movie theaters that don't have a break and are showing all night."
Yang Huan doesn't mind the arrangement of the theater chain, in fact, it is all good for him.
840,000 in one night, which is really a lot. After all, there are fewer box offices in the morning and afternoon, and the release will start at more than seven o'clock in the evening, and there are fewer people watching the movie late at night, so it can be nearly a million box office, and I believe there will be some movement today.
"Very good, how about a theatrical film today?"
"As before, according to the news, most of today's movie tickets have been pre-sold, and I believe that the box office will definitely satisfy you. However, it should be impossible to break the box office results of "Truant Dragon". β
Yang Huan waved his hand unmindfully: "This is normal, Zhou Xingchi's box office appeal has begun to show, and it is normal if it can't be compared." β
In the future, the success of the two weeks will be the most guaranteed storage of the box office of Xiangjiang movies. Except for these three people, no one else is eligible to reach the top of the box office charts.
The top ten were almost swept by the three of them, except for Li Lianjie, it is difficult for others to guarantee.
Firefly Pictures can have a Zhou Xingchi, which is enough to laugh proudly, at least the box office of the company's films can be guaranteed, and it will definitely not be lost.
Of course, Zhou Xingchi's style is destined to be difficult to get out of Southeast Asia, even if it is Ridao. At this point, it can't compare to Zhou Yanfa and Cheng Long.
But this is also to blame himself, he is bent on developing on nonsense, even if he changes later, because of the fixed image, it is difficult to make much of a breakthrough. Otherwise, developing more comedic effects, even if more physically, is enough to make him develop better.
"That's right, Zhou Xingchi is really shocking, he didn't even show it at all before, it's really strange."
"That's no way, how can a newcomer who has not come out have such an opportunity, let alone pointing fingers on the set."
He Ling nodded: "That's right, he really likes to point fingers." It's also a loss of Wang Jing's good temper, if you want to change to someone else, it's really troublesome. β
"This person must be in prison, and his movies must make money." When Yang Huan said this, he suddenly thought of a nostril with thick nose hair, and took out a script, "By the way, go find the author of this script, I believe he will have a good time working with Zhou Xingchi." β
"Love Saint?"
"Well, Li Lizhi, I should still be working as a choreographer on ATV now, I think it's very thoughtful!"
Nonsense, how could Li Lizhi, who later made many nonsensical movies such as "Love Saint", "God of Food", "Ouchi Secret Detective Zero Hair", "Domestic Ling Ling Paint", etc., have no ideas.
It's just a pity that the current Li Lizhi has not yet exerted his ability, otherwise, it would not be his turn to find someone.
"Okay, I'll have him called."
"That's the best, sign him into the company as much as possible. If he wants, let him shoot this "Love Saint". β
He Ling was stunned when he heard this: "You yourself said that he was just a director on a TV station, and obviously he had never independently produced a movie." It's too fast to let him direct independently so soon, right? β
Yang Huan shook his head: "It's okay, I have already revised this script, it is very complete, and he wrote it himself, so it should not be unfamiliar." When he agreed, let him go to the crew of "Tricky Expert" as an assistant director, and tutor Wang Jing to familiarize himself with the shooting skills of nonsensical movies by the way, and how familiar he is with Zhou Xingchi, it is best to have a tacit understanding. After a few months, I believe that with his experience and Zhou Xingchi's own presence, he should be able to figure it out. β
He Ling sighed, Yang Huan is in control of such things as making movies. Generally speaking, he doesn't care, and only lets Wang Jing, Yuan Kui and others take responsibility for themselves. But once a decision is made, it will not change, and this kind of domineering temperament has long been accustomed to it.
"That's what you say, I'm out."
"Hmm."
The office quieted down again, took the report, and looked at the numbers on it, Yang Huan was extremely satisfied.
Speaking of which, Firefly Pictures is now full of talents, with directors Wang Jing, Chen Jiashang, Chen Musheng, Yuan Kui, and then Li Lizhi, and he is in charge, which is really good. It would be better if Zhang Wanting and his wife were taken down again.
As for the actors, it's a little worse, but it doesn't matter, anyway, as long as you invite you over, there won't be too many people who refuse.
Firefly Pictures' movies will not be bad at the box office, this is the influence. Now many actors outside want to cooperate with the company, but the heroines and actors in the company are fixed, and they will not look for outsiders, which makes people very helpless.
The other crew members are almost finished, and I believe that as long as the quality of the work is guaranteed, the development will definitely not slow down.
Speaking of which, the development of film companies has accelerated, and many talents have gradually emerged. In the final analysis, after he started the nonsensical movie, many things have changed.
Such as "Tricky Expert" and "Love Saint", are all products of the butterfly effect.
But it doesn't matter if the timeline that appears is right or wrong, as long as it can be used by him. Especially Zhou Xingchi, in the past two years, he has filmed more nonsense, it is best to find a further way for him, otherwise the achievements will be similar to those in his previous life, which would be a waste.
After putting down the report and knowing that the box office of "Slaying the Wolf" was enough to guarantee, he took the phone on the side and dialed a number.
There was a series of bird whispers, and I finally got some things done, and then I hung up the phone.
Call again: "Liu Shuang, come in." β
A minute later, Liu Shuang walked into the office: "Boss, you look for me." β
"Well, help me book a plane ticket to London, England the day after tomorrow."
Liu Shuang raised his eyebrows: "You are alone?" β
"You go to the distribution department and ask two people to come with me." Speaking of which, he looked at Liu Shuang and thought for a while, "You just stay here, you still need to deal with some affairs here." β
"This, okay."
Liu Shuang nodded and walked out of the office.
Since it was decided to use "Slay the Wolf" as a stepping stone, there is no need to delay any longer. Now that the movie is about to be released, Penguin Press has also helped to contact the Penguin Press in accordance with the original agreement signed for the release of "Jurassic Park", so it is natural to seize this opportunity.
This time I went to London, Yang Huanke attached great importance to it. He is also very confident in the quality of the film, but it is difficult to say what kind of Cheng dΓΉ will be released, which requires additional bargaining chips.
Thinking of this, he took out a stack of manuscripts from his desk drawer, thought about it, and took a business card.
The phone was dialed, and when Yang Huan explained his identity, he was immediately overjoyed. When he asked the other party to come to the door, the other party did not hesitate to promise to arrive within an hour.
I hung up the phone, and my face was full of satisfaction.
