Before Meng Chao became famous in the film industry, some grievances could only be borne by himself!

Because now that the movie is finished and wants to be released, if it is not affiliated with the two major private cinema companies of Shaw Brothers and Golden Harvest, then the only thing that can be found is the state-owned cinema chain controlled by the government, and cooperating with state-owned enterprises is always a university question!

If the old man likes money, he will give them money, and if he likes a woman, he will give them a woman, neither of which is touching or pretending to be high, so he will find a way to get in touch with his family, such as helping his wife buy luxury goods, helping his son study abroad, as long as he is a human being, he has weaknesses, he is flesh and blood, and he is in that position, who can resist the constant temptation?

And the director Jia of the Cultural Bureau that Meng Chao met hated that he hated that in addition to loving money, he also had to pretend to be forced, and Meng Chao was very aggrieved, so he could only let him pretend to be forced, and he had already regarded him as a big fool in his mind!

As long as you can solve the problem of theater release, as long as you give Meng Chao a chance, after the movie becomes popular, when you meet again, it should be this old guy who has good things to say to him, this qiē can only be said to be for the movie!

As for the so-called Director Jia, after reading the script and some editing clips brought by Meng Chao, he had already agreed to the release, of course, the most important thing is that Meng Chao gave a price that he couldn't refuse, that is, the benefit fee in Zheng Zeshi's mouth......

……

Although the relationship between Director Jia's side can be regarded as a match, and the problem of the release has been solved, it is only the first step.

In order to explain to the Cultural Affairs Bureau, Director Jia also had to follow the rules and arranged for the midnight screening of the cinemas under the five Shuangbei Cinemas in Yanjing on January 20, which was learned from the Xiangjiang film circle.

The so-called midnight show is the number of screenings after 11 o'clock at midnight or even later, and this time point basically cuts off the consumption desire of many audiences, because young people who like night cattails are mostly in bars and night clubs at this time, and office workers and students will not have time to enter the cinema if they are not on vacation.

In other words, there are only two kinds of people left who can watch the midnight show, one is the people in the film industry, mainly to see the audience's reaction and the level of the movie, and the other is the person who is so idle.

So if you can impress this kind of person, a movie will have a certain potential, and you can arrange better screenings for screening!

In fact, this is a necessary way for new filmmakers, and Meng Chao also feels that this approach still has merit, so he came to a movie theater in the Fifth Ring Road with Guan Zhilin on the night of the release!

At this time, both of them were just Internet celebrities, and basically no one knew each other after leaving the Internet, so the two of them didn't need to do any makeup to go to the movies together, so they bought tickets and entered the theater generously.

This is one of the benefits of not being popular, if "Happy Ghost" really becomes popular as Meng Chao expected after its release, I am afraid that it will usher in a big sensation when I go out again.

"Brother Chao, how did this pair of North Cinemas work? Are all the cinemas you choose so remote? ”

After entering, Guan Zhilin was a little resentful, because she drove all the way, from the third ring road to the fifth ring road, plus the traffic jam time halfway, a total of two and a half hours, and this is already the closest cinema to Huaxia Film and Television City to Yanjing midnight screening of "Happy Ghost".

Meng Chao has been staying in the Fifth Ring Road when he first arrived in Yanjing, mainly because the rent here is relatively cheap, and later the state began to support the development of the film and television industry.

Therefore, Meng Chao is relatively familiar with the situation of the Fifth Ring Road: "It is more difficult to screen the midnight show here, and many office workers living in the Fifth Ring Road have to rush to work in the Third Ring Road at five or six o'clock in the morning, where is there time to watch the midnight show, which drives away most of the audience......

Seeing that Meng Chao's love was a little low, Guan Zhilin realized that she was a little suspicious, and immediately admonished: "Brother Chao, now we are just starting out, I think our movie is funny and novel, there must be many viewers who will like it after watching it!" ”

Sure enough, as Guan Zhilin said, although "Happy Ghost" was only arranged by this cinema called Parkson in a small screening hall of more than 300 people, but after Meng Chao and Guan Zhilin entered, audiences continued to buy tickets to enter, and by the end of the movie, there were more than 200 people!

The audience sat densely, which was a comfort to Meng Chao, and it also proved that the posters they posted outside the movie theater with the Qing Dynasty-shaped Huang Baiming and the three young heroines as the selling points were still quite attractive.

And attracting the audience is only the first step, the rest is to make the audience like this movie, and this qiē needs to rely on the quality of the movie itself, which Meng Chao is particularly confident!

Because "Happy Ghost" was originally a rare classic case in the Xiangjiang film industry in the parallel world that could be sold with a small and broad price, the filming cost of the movie was only less than 2 million, but the final box office exceeded 10 million, and several sequels were filmed one after another, all of which were very popular at the box office, which proves that the audience can actually accept and like this type of film.

At this time, the film began to be screened, first of all, the LOGO of the film company appeared, a strong light came out horizontally, a strong music sounded, and then seven big words appeared: Genesis Film Company!

The design concept of this logo is based on the logo of a film company called Galaxy Impression in the parallel world, and he likes such a simple and powerful form.

And then Meng Chao's name appeared first in the producer column, then director Gao Zhisen, screenwriters Meng Chao and Huang Baiming, leading actors Huang Baiming, Meng Chao, Guan Jiahui, Li Lizhen, Li Xuexin, special thanks to the performances are Shen Dianxia and Zheng Zeshi......

The audience will naturally not be excited when they see all the unfamiliar names, but some people will feel sorry for the movie tickets in their hearts.

The first picture that appeared in the movie was the scene of hanging from a beam in an ancient temple, and the starring Huang Baiming was also a middle-aged ordinary man, which made people cry out for bad luck, but after this shot, he soon jumped out of the mirror and entered the beach at night, and several heroines were playing in swimsuits, which immediately attracted many male audiences!
