Chapter 462: These Guys
"Brother Yuquan, isn't it a gap of $152 million? I believe it will be exceeded, what a mess of $37 million, will those people really be controlled by the audience when watching the movie? On the sofa in the living room on the second floor, Liu Yifei pursed her lips, obviously dissatisfied with the rhetoric of those media or filmmakers.
"Ha, Yifei is right, there are many factors that affect the box office of the movie, where is it so easy to predict, and there is still a long release time, isn't it 152 million US dollars? Who said it couldn't catch up. Wang Luodan, who was sitting next to Liu Yifei, said cheeringly, his expression full of ridicule for those who asserted that "Wild Story" could not break the record of "Titanic".
"Just say it, the mouth grows on others, we have no right to interfere, as long as we don't think so." Jiang Yan chuckled.
"Yes, others can think that we can't do it, but in the end, we ourselves categorically can't think so, self-abandonment, miracles, will always be reserved for those who insist on not giving up." Liu Shishi's voice was sonorous and powerful.
Looking at their eyes with endless concern, Lin Yuquan's heart warmed, and he couldn't help but laugh at himself secretly in his heart, he couldn't even compare to a few women, and the scene of the previous Wenchuan earthquake rescue involuntarily appeared in his mind.
In the case of earthquake disasters, there is a saying that the "golden 72 hours" after the earthquake refer to the survival rate of 90% of the trapped people on the first day after the earthquake, 50%-60% on the second day, and only 20%-30% on the third day, and then survival is a miracle.
I remember that after the time exceeded the "golden 72 hours", although I knew that there was little hope. But countless rescuers still do not abandon and do not give up the fight and rescue.
Why, because little hope does not mean no hope, miracle. Miracles, all people would rather have miracles, and for the sake of this miracle, they will never give up.
All miracles lie in the non-abandonment of life, and the result is needless to say, when rescuers do not abandon rescue efforts. When those buried in the ruins do not give up the belief in saving themselves, the combination of the two finally makes the miracle repeat itself again and again.
The dilemma facing "Savage" at the moment is very similar, if he gives up on this point. So how can he shoot "Immediate Rescue", which intends to convey a strong spirit.
And in the memories of the cultivators he absorbed, the other party had endured countless tests of life and death, and although the other party finally died under the Heavenly Tribulation, the other party never had the idea of giving up. Compare yourself to each other. What is the hardship and danger that he and "Savage" are encountering now.
Thinking of these, Lin Yuquan's unwillingness and troubles after seeing the box office data and reports all dissipated, and his fighting spirit burned again in his eyes.
Indeed, even if "Wild Story" failed to break the record of "Titanic", he didn't need to mind, because "Wild Story" was successful enough, but since it was not time for hope to run out, why did he take the initiative to give up?
What's more, there are so many people who support and love "Savage". They are so eager for "Wild Stories" to create miracles and myths.
"Don't worry, I don't think so." Lin Yuquan smiled lightly. His eyes immediately looked at Liu Yifei, Wang Luodan, and Jiang Yan, and said strangely: "By the way, none of the three of you really wants to go to watch the Chinese men's basketball team play Spain with me tomorrow afternoon?" ”
"Well, we've got plans for tomorrow afternoon and evening!" Wang Luodan grinned.
"That's right, Rainspring, you can leave us alone." Jiang Yan said with a smile.
Liu Yifei bit her lip and looked at Lin Yuquan, then at Liu Shishi, and finally gritted her teeth and said, "Brother Yuquan, you can enjoy the game!"
"Well, tomorrow's game should be exciting, but it's your own loss if you don't watch it." Lin Yuquan shook his head with a smile, the three girls were mysterious about tomorrow's arrangements today, and they always felt that they were deliberately hiding something from him.
In the TV, the diving men's double 10-meter platform final has ended, Lin Yue and Huo Liang won the gold medal for the Chinese army, at this time the women's weightlifting 58 kg final is being broadcast live, the defending champion Chen Yanqing participated in the competition, and in this event, Chen Yanqing can be said to have overwhelming strength, and finally successfully defended the title with a total score of 244 kg, adding the 9th gold medal of the Olympic Games to the Chinese sports delegation, and at the same time refreshing the two Olympic records held by herself in the clean and jerk and the total score, As a result, she became the first athlete of the Chinese women's weightlifting team to win the Olympic championship for consecutive years.
In this regard, Lin Yuquan and the four girls who watched the game naturally cheered, and then chatted with the four girls again, taking advantage of the fact that there was no ongoing final on the live TV, he said hello to the four girls and walked into the room to make a phone call
"Smack", "Damn, why is this happening?" ”
Amid the sound of glass shattering, a curse rang out in the messy room.
The whole country was immersed in the festive atmosphere of the Olympic Games, but in the slightly dark room, a middle-aged man with hair and beard and clothes on his body who seemed to have not been taken care of for a long time sat on the sofa with a depressed face, and on the coffee table in front of him, there were two wine bottles, several white plastic bags that seemed to contain braised vegetables and the like, and a full ashtray, and the entire coffee table was full of water stains, soot, oil stains, and spilled food.
The sound of glass shattering came from a pool of broken glass on the ground not far from the middle-aged man, and it could be vaguely seen that it was the same texture as the wine bottle on the coffee table, but the number of glass shards was obviously far more than the amount that a wine bottle should have.
"Damn, why did I end up like this?" The middle-aged man cursed again, slammed his fist on the coffee table, through the messy beard and messy hair, it was faintly clear that this was Guo Ziyu, a reporter from "Business Week", of course, it would be more accurate to say that it was Guo Ziyu, a former reporter from "Business Week", because as early as a month ago, he left "Business Week", of course, it is also accurate to say that he was swept away.
"Lao Du, Guo Ziyu's matter was handled very well last time, and this time I have a more tricky task for you." Lin Yuquan smiled and said to Du Kefan on the other side of the phone that this Du Kefan was none other than the person in charge of the private public relations team he had set up. Prior to that, he was a senior executive at Ogilvy & Mather China, a well-known public relations firm, specializing in strategic planning and crisis management. Guo Ziyu was not only kicked out of "Business Weekly" like a lost dog, but also became famous in the national media reporter circle through the bombardment on the Internet, but it is not a good name, but a bad reputation and notoriety, with his current reputation. I'm afraid it will be difficult to mix in the media industry in a short period of time.
"What task?" Du Kefan asked with interest, the reason why he was willing to leave Ogilvy and Mather Public Relations to join Lin Yuquan's private public relations team was that Lin Yuquan's salary was difficult to refuse. is also optimistic about the career development of working next to Lin Yuquan.
"If Lao Du has paid attention to "Wild Story", you should know that "Wild Story" is facing a very difficult situation to catch up with the box office of "Titanic", and I hope you will join the publicity camp and work with Dawning Film and Summit Entertainment to develop a strategy. Get the word out. The goal is to help "Wild Story" maximize the box office. Lin Yuquan said slowly.
"Maximize, what is the bottom line of the price?"
"As long as I can afford it, I'll call Chris Summit, the president of Summit Entertainment, later. Anderson and the general manager of Dawning Films, Ding Value, explain this matter, and you should get to work as soon as possible. Lin Yuquan said in a deep voice.
"Okay boss, I'll definitely do my best." Du Kefan smiled.
"Really? I'm looking forward to it, this is the time for you to show your abilities in my company, and only the better you perform, the better you perform, the heavier the burden I can hand over to you in the future. Lin Yuquan said meaningfully.
Although Lin Yuquan did not say it explicitly. But Du Kefan obviously realized something, and his eyes lit up and he suddenly said confidently: "Boss." Rest assured, I will be sure to complete the task successfully. ”
"Good." Lin Yuquan smiled, and immediately called Ding and Chris. Anderson.
In and Chris. On Anderson's phone, after talking about the promotion of "Wild Story", Lin Yuquan immediately asked about the progress of the special effects company.
"Boss, we have almost communicated with the five special effects companies, and I will send you their information tomorrow, but in terms of acquiring the special effects company, we still need more time to collect relevant information." Chris came on the phone. Anderson's voice.
"Okay, thank you Chris." Lin Yuquan said with a smile.
"Boss, this is what I should do, and it's not hard, it's the employees below who are hard." Chris. Anderson laughed.
"Heh, thank them on my behalf, and after the acquisition of the special effects company is completed, I will invite everyone to dinner, and there will be more generous year-end bonuses waiting for them." Lin Yuquan said.
"Okay, boss, with your words boss, I'm sure everyone won't find it hard." Chris. Anderson laughed.
"Haha, I hope it will have that effect too." Lin Yuquan laughed.
"It's almost time, let's go out and buy groceries and cook!" Ends and Chris. Lin Yuquan, who was talking to Anderson, said as soon as he walked out of the room.
"Okay!" Liu Yifei got up happily, her watery eyes flashing one after another.
"Wow, it's nice to save another dinner." Wang Luodan stood up with a smile on his face.
Lin Yuquan shook his head with a smile, went downstairs with the four daughters, and drove out after asking Lin's father and Lin's mother what they wanted to eat at night.
Since there was no heavyweight competition in the evening, after the sumptuous dinner, Lin Yuquan simply went out for a walk with Shi Shi and Yifei, and he was about to get busy again, he cherished the time with his second daughter, especially with Shi Shi, Yifei as the heroine in "Immediate Rescue", has a lot of scenes, after the filming of "Immediate Rescue", the two have a lot of time together, but Shi Shi has very few roles in "Immediate Rescue", and she mainly shoots "The Three Thousand Golds of the Shen Family" with her as the heroine in the second half of the year.
Although the three of them are not as close as the two of them when they are together, the three of them who cherish each other's time together are extremely satisfied with this.
It was almost 10 o'clock in the evening that Lin Yuquan sent his second daughter home.
After a night of speech, Meimei slept all night, Lin Yuquan got up very early as usual, and when he got downstairs, he saw the busy figure of Lin's mother: "Mom, morning!" Oh, it's delicious, was it omelette noodles this morning? ”
"Yes, omelette." Mother Lin said with a smile.
"Then I want two fried eggs." Lin Yuquan smiled brightly.
"Okay, all three are fine." Mother Lin smiled slightly.
"Forget it, I don't want to be called rich and willful. Eat three omelette noodles. Lin Yuquan shrugged.
"It's not the same to eat two." Lin Mu smiled.
"It's better than eating three, Dad?" Lin Yuquan watched as Mother Lin put the fried fragrant eggs on a porcelain plate.
"Outside boxing?"
"Okay, then I'll go to the yard to practice boxing." Lin Yuquan nodded. Walking to the door of the living room, Lin Mu's voice came from behind him: "Give you ten minutes, I'll boil water and cook noodles in ten minutes." He didn't look back and said, "Got it!" ”
After breakfast, as soon as Lin Yuquan returned to the room, he immediately turned on the computer, logged in to the mailbox, and then saw emails about five special effects companies.
After reading the email carefully and weighing it up. Lin Yuquan quickly selected a British special effects company to double deny, in terms of price, this company is not the cheapest. The moving image and rhythm and color are all better at a price, but there is one thing that no other special effects company can match, and that is the efficiency and grasp of physical effects, once the special effects control of "Immediate Rescue" is handed over to the other party. It will then be the pillar of double negation Paul. Franklin is the film's VFX supervisor. The special effects company that led the double negation and cooperation to complete all the special effects by May next year is not ambiguous, but guaranteed, and such sincerity and determination are rare.
After setting up the special effects company, Lin Yuquan was undoubtedly in a good mood, and immediately called Chris. Anderson, the signing of the contract can be done slowly, but he wants to be the fastest and the soon-to-be "Immediate Rescue" VFX Supervisor Paul Anderson. Franklin communicated. In order to start the production of special effects as soon as possible.
Chris. Anderson's work efficiency is very fast, only about twenty minutes. Lin Yuquan then and Paul. Franklin got in touch and communicated by phone, waiting for the time to go to London for the new book signing, and then go to the double negative tour and discuss the details of the special effects. Franklin also said that he will set up a special effects team for "Immediate Rescue" as soon as possible, including contacting earthquake experts to act as special effects consultants.
and Paul. After Franklin communicated, Lin Yuquan went downstairs, then drove out to pick up Shi Shi, and then returned to Ziyu Villa to watch the live TV broadcast of the gymnastics men's team final with Lin's father and Lin's mother.
Yifei, Yanzi, and Dandan did not come, and the three girls seemed to have been arranged since the morning.
China's men's basketball game against Spain started at 4:30 p.m., Lin Yuquan watched the live broadcast of the diving women's doubles 10-meter platform final at home before driving out, first sending Shi Shi home, and then going to Wukesong Gymnasium, converging Xiao Yang, Zhu Yawen, Luo Jin, watching the basketball game is undoubtedly easy to get excited, and then exposed, in fact, he doesn't mind exposing his relationship with Shi Shi, but doing so is unfair to Yifei.
"Liu Yifei, Jiang Yan, and Wang Luodan appeared at the Kyoto Theater of Shuguang Cinema and accompanied fans to watch "Wild Story: The Rise of the Ape Clan" all day."
When he returned to Jia in the evening and saw the entertainment news, Lin Yuquan realized that the third daughter had deliberately concealed what he had done mysteriously today, and he was both moved and distressed.
"Fool, why didn't you tell me? For female celebrities, it is very dangerous to hold such an event if there are no comprehensive protection measures, and what if you encounter a pervert? What should I do if you are hurt in any way? Lin Yuquan scolded Liu Yifei on the other side of the phone.
"Brother Yuquan, we're fine, we have told the agent to arrange security to maintain order." Liu Yifei said with a smile.
"Laughing, why don't you tell me about this kind of thing?" Lin Yuquan scolded.
"If you tell Brother Yuquan, you will definitely not let us do it, we just want to contribute to the box office of "Wild Story". Liu Yifei said pitifully.
"Hey, whose idea?" Lin Yuquan asked with a sigh.
"It's Sister Dandan and Sister Yanzi." Liu Yifei said as if offering a treasure.
"They!" Lin Yuquan's heart warmed, with such a good friend, what else could he ask for?
"Sister Chang, do you know what Yifei and Yanzi did when they went to the theater today?" After talking to Yifei on the phone, Lin Yuquan immediately called Chang Jihong.
"Yes." Chang Jihong's answer was very succinct.
"Then why don't you talk to me?" Lin Yuquan smiled bitterly.
"Because they said they wanted to surprise the boss, I thought it would be better." Chang Jihong said with a smile.
"Surprise, I was almost frightened, if there is something similar in the future, you must tell me in advance." Lin Yuquan shook his head and said.
"Okay, boss, I'll tell you now."
"What's the matter?"
"Zhu Yawen and Luo Jin are ready to go to Shuguang Cinema tomorrow to accompany fans and fans to watch "Wild Story" all day, and Ning Hao and Xiao Yang are ready to go to Shuguang Theater the day after tomorrow to accompany fans and fans to watch "Wild Story" all day."
"These guys, I don't know, no one leaks when I watch the game in the afternoon." Lin Yuquan smiled bitterly and shook his head, but his heart was very warm and warm. (To be continued......)
