Chapter 363: The Premiere of "War" (2-in-1)

Peng Zhi said, let yourself avoid it, why don't you want Yan Zhangrong?

In terms of publicity popularity, when "Deadly Action" was completely crushed by "Martial Arts Master: War", he already had this idea. Later, when Lian pulled Ji Jiaxin's idiot and did hype and propaganda together, he made some waves.

But what if there are waves? Compared with the majestic sea, the waves are just a dotted white, and compared with the boundless blue, it is not worth mentioning.

In this case, Yan Zhangrong, as the producer of the movie, after seeing it, how can he not know that in the early publicity, "Deadly Action" is seriously unexpected, and looking at the current situation, it is almost impossible to promote that Shanghai can turn around.

If the publicity is not enough, can the box office performance meet expectations? Yan Zhangrong really didn't have this confidence.

However, a large amount of the publicity budget for "Deadly Action" has already been invested. Tens of millions of yuan of funds have been smashed, and no matter how much propaganda has not met expectations, at least there is so much money.

But if it doesn't come out? If it is delayed, more than half of the publicity funds during this period will be wasted.

More critically......

"Brother, I know what you said, but I have to postpone it...... Where will I find tens of millions of dollars to make a promotional budget for this movie...... Brother, why don't you have more support from the head office? After all, it's all the work of the company. ”

Yan Zhangrong said.

Hearing his words, Peng Zhi immediately snorted: "Eh, I also went to the previous preview of your film, and the quality is very good." Sometimes the publicity doesn't come to the expectation, after all, Weiwei Entertainment is in the limelight now, and the quality of our movies is very good, and when it is released, it will definitely be able to win by word of mouth. ”

Hearing Peng Zhi's words, Yan Zhangrong's mood also sank by half.

He had hoped that the head office would be able to provide financial help.

When he decided to invest in this movie himself, many people in the head office criticized it. After all, under the name of 'Huayi Pictures', in fact, Yan Zhangrong has the majority of the capital, the majority of the money made by the film will only be with him, and the head office will get very little income.

When I can't set up a project, I want to make money on my own, and when I encounter difficulties, I ask the head office for help.

But what can Yan Zhangrong do?

This time, he came to the capital for a meeting, and his main goal was to find some help.

And now looking at Peng Zhi's attitude, the situation is worrying.

Taking a deep breath, he tried to cheer himself up. In any case, he still has to continue to try, otherwise if "Deadly Rhythm" loses miserably, then his efforts over the years will really return to the pre-liberation period.

However, after two or three days of activities in the capital, Yan Zhangrong met many people during this period.

He still has connections, after all, he has been an executive in 'Huayi Pictures' for many years, and when he encounters his invitation, many people will still be willing to come out to meet him, so as not to let him eat closed-door.

But that's about it.

Substantial commitments? Not a word.

The only consolation is that he met with the management of several theaters and got a guarantee - the initial schedule of "Deadly Action" is not less than 20%.

To be honest, if this promise had been placed some time ago, Yan Zhangrong would have been even more stupid and dismissive.

In the same schedule, their "Deadly Action", the scale of investment is not small, the star lineup is huge, and the popularity of all aspects of publicity is not low, although 25% of the film schedule is not low, but it is not too much to get so much, it is originally the meaning of the right, why do you need him to come forward to talk about it in person?

But now, being able to get such a guarantee is already a gain.

At the moment, the name of "Martial Arts Grandmaster: War" is too prosperous, and the conservative number of films will not be less than 30%, and may even reach more than 35. Counting the number of films that some other movies get, it is really unknown whether "Deadly Action" can be given 25% in the end.

In fact, at the previous wine table, a representative of the theater who drank too much also revealed that if Yan Zhangrong hadn't come over in person, said some good things, and offered some tangible benefits, I am afraid that the film scheduling rate of "Deadly Action" will not only not reach 25%, but may even fall below 20.

Yan Zhangrong also asked curiously at that time, saying how much they gave "War Fire" over there, and they replied:

"Thirty-eight."

Yan Zhangrong took a deep breath.

But whether you are unwilling or envious and jealous, you have to press it back into your stomach.

……

No matter how much disturbance there is, it is finally time for "Martial Arts Master: War" to go to the theater and meet the audience.

On the evening of June 28, at 12 o'clock in the morning, the midnight premiere of "Martial Arts Grandmaster: War" officially opened.

At this time, it was the third day of the TV series version of the finale, and the popularity of the movie was at its highest.

In the movie theater, Liang Shuyue was waiting in line to enter, and her face couldn't erase the tiredness.

Very early on, in a 'dimensional entertainment fan group' she participated in on the Internet, there were many people in tandem to watch the premiere of "Martial Arts Master: War" together.

She wanted to participate so much that she signed up.

However, later, many of her colleagues also made appointments to watch this movie together, and many people called her.

It is difficult to resist enthusiasm, on the one hand, she is a fan on the Internet, and on the other hand, she is a colleague in reality, and she still chooses her colleagues.

If she were younger, she might choose to watch it with her friends on the Internet. But after all, it has passed the second stage of secondary school, and interpersonal relationships in reality are more important.

Six or seven colleagues who have a good relationship with each other bought tickets together and are ready to see tonight's premiere.

But what made her angry was that just a few hours ago, tonight, the initiator of them said that his wife was not allowed to go out at night, and there was an order to let him accompany his wife to watch this movie.

That's it, after all, who doesn't have a family situation?

But this thing is understandable, but he did a stupid thing that is not very incomprehensible - the movie tickets for the premiere of "Martial Arts Master: War", which are not easy to buy, they are movie tickets booked on the Internet in advance. The friends who made an appointment, the tickets were all bought by this person, and everyone went back and gave him money to finish.

But this guy couldn't come, he wanted to refund the ticket, and he didn't know how to operate, so he refunded all the six or seven tickets in the entire order in one go!

Caught off guard, this premiere started tonight, where can I buy tickets on the spot?

Liang Shuyue really spurted out a mouthful of old blood, and she had the heart to kill that unreliable colleague.

The other colleagues had no tickets and couldn't come, so they decided not to come, and were ready to wait for the next or third day to buy tickets, anyway, they saved running out in the middle of the night.

But where can Liang Shuyue stand this?

She is a big fan of the series "Martial Arts Master", and she watched it when the TV series first came out. Moreover, she is also a big fan of Dimension Entertainment, when she just graduated from high school, she was watching Dimension Entertainment's first work, that is, the second season of the animated version of "Full-time Master". It can be said that the works of Dimension Entertainment have accompanied her youth.

This premiere, she really wanted to watch!

Since this group of colleagues is unreliable, she can only think of some other way.

It happened to rain at night, but even if it was raining, she hurried to the cinema and wanted to buy tickets on the spot.

There are a lot of films scheduled for "Martial Arts Master: War", and many screenings in this cinema are going to show this movie. However, the popularity of the movie should not be underestimated, and the tickets for the premiere are basically sold out, and occasionally one or two are left, and the positions are extremely poor. The first row and the second row are still on the edge.

But what can be done?

She bought one of these tickets first. Even if the location is not good, the viewing experience will be poor, and you have to ensure that you can only discuss these before you can see it.

Anyway, she has already made up her mind, she will definitely brush this film for the second or even third time, and then buy tickets in advance and buy some good seats.

However, despite this, she still didn't quite want her experience to see the premiere so badly.

She waited at the front desk of the cinema, waiting for them to refresh and swipe out the tickets.

What if a fool looks like a colleague of hers and refunds the ticket? Isn't that just a way to pick up the slack!

However, she looked around, and there were quite a few people around the front desk. I came here in the middle of the night for what kind of movie, it goes without saying.

The competition is a bit fierce.

She began to think of other ideas.

took out her mobile phone, she opened the group of his 'Dimensional Entertainment Enthusiasts' before, began to post the location, and then sent a request for help:

"Help! Ask a good Samaritan to help! Ask for a good location ticket for "War"! ”

She is an active member of the group, usually chats and speaks a lot, and there are many people in the group, who are old acquaintances.

So, someone soon gave her a reply:

"Didn't you go and see it with your colleague? Didn't get a ticket? ”

"If you don't follow our group, that's how it ends!"

"Good Samaritans have been heartbroken by you and don't save them."

Seeing these replies, she complained about a wave of bitterness, told the whole story, and then sent a 'pitiful' expression: "All the big guys, it's good, if anyone suddenly has something, contact me as soon as possible, I really ask for votes!" Double the price! ”

Gagged in the group for a while, but in fact, she didn't have much hope for a ticket to get a good position.

The people in this group will buy tickets for the premiere, and they are all fans of Wedo Entertainment. Everyone has been looking forward to the release of "War" for a long time, and it is unlikely that someone will give up tickets.

Chatting here is nonsense, mainly to pass the boring time waiting for the movie to start.

But the emperor lived up to his wishes, and suddenly, her mobile phone vibrated a little, and someone was chatting with her privately.

"Sister Yue, do you still want a ticket?"

One look at the ID, it's very unfamiliar, it should be in the group, but it may be a diving party, the kind that doesn't like to talk much.

But who does she care who is it now? It's the dad who has the ticket!

"Yes, yes, yes! Do you want to let it? ”

"Well, I have one. My mom wouldn't let me come out to see it, and I was going to sneak out of the house at night to see it, but if you want, I can give it to you. ”

"Okay!"

"That double price ......"

It seems that you can make dozens of dollars by changing hands on a movie ticket, which is quite tempting for the student party. What's more, people don't watch the premiere, and they can buy tickets for other shows at any time when they turn back.

However, for Liang Shuyue, she is already working, and there is no pressure to spend an extra movie ticket.

The water that spilled out of the words was spilled, and she didn't plan to break her promise, so she directly transferred the account.

"The money has been sent to you in a V letter red envelope, send me the ticket code." After this sentence, there is also a smiley face.

She saw that the red envelope she sent out was received, and then the ticket code was not sent for a long time.

"Huh?" She had a bad premonition in her heart, and hurriedly asked a few more questions.

Then, she found out that she had been blocked.

Blood rushed to her heart, and now, she didn't know where she had met a liar.

"it!" Ten thousand alpacas galloped past in her heart, and she was so angry that her face turned red.

Turning her head to open the group, she began to scold this bastard liar. Then I turned my head and searched, and this guy dropped out of the group.

Liang Shuyue's encounter received a warm response in the group.

Everyone generally condemned the liar, and then comforted her that she had been cheated of more than 100 yuan, and occasionally some guys with bad personalities and stinky mouths would laugh at her.

Pulling and pulling, her mood is a little better, at least the depression of being deceived is not so heavy.

And then, another person had a private chat with her.

"Satsuki was deceived?"

This time it's an old acquaintance, she even knows that the other party should be an IT man in reality, he may be more than ten years older than himself, an old comrade, and he is in Shenghai, not very far away, and when he held an offline party in the group, he also met the base.

"Hmm...... Crying .jpg"

"Haha, I have a ticket for the premiere here, give it to you."

"Huh? Don't you read it? ”

"I was going to see you, but when I saw you so miserable, I forgot it for you. I'm old, and I can't stay up too much, so I'll buy a ticket later, and I'll see it after work tomorrow. ”

After typing a line, even a ticket code was sent.

Liang Shuyue was instantly moved: "Old U, you are really a good person!" ”

"This is the good guy card......

Liang Shuyue went to get the ticket and found that the location was really good, in the middle of the seven rows, it was perfect.

She turned on her mobile phone, operated on it, bought a movie ticket for tomorrow, and then sent it to Lao U.

"Here, tomorrow at half past seven, I'll show you!"

"Hah, you're welcome."

"You're welcome, thank you for your gift tonight."

With a smile on her face, Liang Shuyue lined up to enter.

There is true love in the world!
