In the new film joint theater chain, "Romeo and Juliet" and "Little Ghost Bobby", which were released together with the horror film "Smart: Ghost Shadow", although the first-day box office in the United States was higher than that of "Smart: Ghost Shadow", but there is not much comparison.

There are more than 4,000 theaters in the United States, and "Romeo and Juliet" and "Imp Bobby" have been released in more than 1,000 theaters, and the box office on the first day is only more than 600,000 more than "Smart: Ghost Movie".

You must know that these two movies were released nationwide, and "Smart: Ghost Shadow" was only released in more than a dozen theaters in New Film United Theaters in California.

In such a comparison, the two movies "Romeo and Juliet" and "Imp Bobby" are simply weak.

With the results of the box office on the first day, Torrance decided to increase the schedule of "Smart: Ghost Shadow", and also promoted it in conspicuous places such as advertising screens in theaters.

For a movie, the schedule of the theater is crucial, and can even determine life and death.

Under Torrens's arrangement, the box office of "Smart: Ghost Record" reached $1 million on the second day, surpassing the national box office of "Romeo and Juliet" and "Imp Bobby".

It's incredible, it's an unimaginable achievement.

Torrance immediately thought of a word: explosive!

At this time, he felt that their big boss was vicious, and such a movie with a sword going off the rails could be excavated.

As a professional manager of the cinema chain, he felt that it was necessary to reflect the difference between the film "Smart: Ghost Shadow" with the leaders, and let them communicate with the filmmaker to get the global film distribution rights of the film.

Torrance thought of it and made a plan for the top leaders.

He thought that the upper echelons would be a little hesitant and would think about it for a few days, but he didn't expect the upper echelons to agree quickly.

With the approval of the leadership, Torrance soon began negotiations with MEmu Media.

Wang Hao, who was still trying to knock on the door of theaters across the United States, never thought that a pie would fall from the sky and smash him unconscious.

After all, Wang Hao is a person who has experienced strong winds and waves, and he has been wandering outside since he was a child, and he did not respond to it on the grounds of communicating with the leader, and pressed the other party's conditions.

In the evening, Wang Hao calculated the time on Huaguo's side and made a call to Chen Xiao.

"Brother Chen, New Film United Cinemas wants to take our global film distribution rights, I didn't agree immediately, ask your opinion." Wang Hao wanted Chen Xiao to report.

Chen Xiao on the other end of the phone thought for a while and said: "We have no experience in film distribution, and we have no global layout. Therefore, if we think rationally, it is more beneficial for us to hand over the distribution rights to them. That being said, they can't be left to the slaughter. We have our own bottom line, and we can't let their lions open their mouths. ”

"I see."

After the two discussed the details for a while, Wang Hao had a general direction.

Later, Wang Hao began to negotiate the terms of cooperation with the New Film United Cinema.

After three days of bargaining, the two sides finally finalized the cooperation.

New Film United Cinemas is responsible for the global distribution of Xiaoyao Media's "Smart: Ghost Shadow".

As soon as the contract was signed, Torrens began his actions.

He found an opportunity to organize a movie manager viewing party, and as a veteran filmmaker in North America, Torrance has a lot of connections.

Basically, the managers of the cinemas covering the whole of the United States are here for this viewing party.

"Mark, what kind of movie do you think this is?"

"I don't know, I see that the evaluation of Tomato Network is not bad, and the reputation is very good."

"More than a dozen theaters grossed $500,000 on the first day, which is neither too good nor too bad."

"But you know, it's the movie that costs just over $10,000."

"Oh my God, is your message true?"

"Hehe, I don't lie to you, Torrance and I are friends."

"In that case, I'm going to have to take a good look at this movie."

"The movie begins."

"I hope you don't disappoint me, I'm looking forward to what a $10,000 movie can look like."

……

Well? Is this movie a family documentary?

The first shot of the movie is the actor holding the camera and taking a selfie in the mirror, and the picture quality is very rough.

There were some whispers in the theater.

The way of filming "Smart: Ghost Shadow" is a bit unexpected.

These studio managers are different from the audience in the market, they are very familiar with various types of movies, and from their professional eyes, this movie is not bad as a horror movie, and the beginning is very gripping after the eighth minute.

The originally whispering theater immediately became quiet, and a terrifying atmosphere permeated the theater, and the theater became audible.

Some of them began to cover their eyes with their hands, looking through their fingers, and covering their eyes when they saw the horrific scenes.

1st night

3rd night

……

The rhythm of the movie is tight step by step, rendering the atmosphere to the fullest.

When it was time for the finale, it was the heroine's sleepwalking scene that lifted their hearts.

The heroine "sleepwalked" and left the room and screamed wildly, the male protagonist chased after him, and there were no two people in the picture, only the heroine downstairs screaming and the male protagonist screaming, and suddenly there was no sound.

The camera was still looking at the dark staircase, and after a while I heard someone coming up the stairs and stepping on the wooden floor, which was getting louder and closer...

This shot and sound effects turn up the horror atmosphere to the maximum.

In the gloomy picture, the blood-stained heroine walks towards the camera, looks at the camera and smiles gloomily, and then opens her bloody mouth......

"Ahh Someone couldn't help but scream.

At the end, text appears on the screen: The hero's body was found by the police a day later, but the heroine is missing.

After watching this movie, everyone's hearts in the theater were pounding.

They have the illusion that the film is a documentary, and that everything in it is real and not a movie.

The appeal of this film is truly incredible!

The closing lights in the theater came on.

The people who watched the film were still in the terrifying atmosphere of the film, and no one left.

"How's it going, Mark?"

"A great movie, this small-budget movie, although it doesn't have amazing visual performance, but his 'pseudo-documentary' way of talking about ghost movies has taken horror films to a new level."

"I feel the same way, it's been a long time since I've seen such a powerful horror film, and it evokes a real fear in my heart. Now that the film is over, I feel incredibly relaxed. ”

"Well, this film can be played."

……

The film was unexpectedly successful, and the studio managers who came to see the movie decided to let "Smart: Ghost Record" be released in their studios.

Torrance was very happy to get this result.

After some hard work, it was decided that "Smart: Ghost Shadow" would be released in 3,000 theaters in North America a week later.

Wang Hao told Chen Xiao the news, and Chen Xiao was also rarely happy, and the film finally went out.
