Public opinion is overwhelming.

Sometimes, public opinion is more ruthless than a knife, and there is no blood in killing.

Everyone gave a merciless whip to Yi Feiyang, a maverick Chinese director.

Of course, if Yi Feiyang is not Chinese, if Yi Feiyang is not so eye-catching, if ......

No ifs!

In short, the people who are jealous of the virtuous and the capable, and the people who discriminate against the Chinese, are all fueling the flames in the hope that this matter can be expanded, and it is best to splash all the blackest and dirtiest dirty water on Yi Feiyang.

In this regard, Yi Feiyang doesn't care, the fat man Gao Jiabao, who is Yi Feiyang's friend, is about to be unable to hold back.

If he hadn't been pulled by Yi Feiyang, the fat man would have jumped out directly and grassed the ancestors of these guys for three generations!

"Ayan, I see that you have been a villain lately, and you have bad luck! or go to Chinatown and invite a second brother Guan to come to the town to suppress the evil spirit; Or find grapefruit leaves to wash them well and drive away bad luck! "The fat man gave Yi Feiyang advice.

Yi Feiyang does not believe in ghosts and gods, although Hong Kong has the custom of turning on the plane to worship God and thank Guan Erge, but for Yi Feiyang, it is better to believe in ghosts and gods than to believe in himself.

As long as you stand tall and don't fall, no one can defeat yourself!

Yes, no one can!

……

Faced with the ban of Yi Feiyang's "Ghost Shadow Record", Yi Feiyang himself was deeply affected and was called the "director of death", and some people even ridiculed him, but he became a "director killer" after filming failed.

In this regard, the two brothers Dennis and Adjado are the most happy.

Previously, the authentic "Blair Witch 2" created by the two single-handedly, both in terms of word-of-mouth and box office. was so overwhelmed by Yi Feiyang's "Ghost Shadow Record" that he couldn't raise his head. For this reason, Mr. Gusta, the owner of Lionsgate Films, who helped the two film, did not say anything. But the two guys are also shameful figures. I always feel that I owe something to Boss Gusta.

It's good now, God his old man has finally lost his temper, and then damn China is easy to get retribution!

Yes, retribution like shit!

Ha Luha, the movie shot can scare people to death, this Chinese guy is unlucky this time!

Dennis and Adellado open champagne, meet up with sexy babes, and bump their butts on the dance floor together. Hot dance.

What is schadenfreude?

That's it!

Compared with the short-sightedness of these two unlucky guys, Mr. Gusta, as the CEO of Lionsgate, has a different view on what happened to Yi Feiyang.

If such a thing happens in a conservative country, then it is undoubtedly equivalent to God's wrath, anger and thunderbolt...... The parties have to pay a heavy price for this.

But don't forget, this is America!

The most democratic and liberal country in the whole world!

Any miracle. A country where any legend can happen!

"Perhaps, what happened to China Yi this time is not a bad thing!" Gusta thought to himself as he touched his pretty mustache.

It's a pity that there is not much to talk to next to him. Mr. Mike, the original distribution supervisor, has been assigned to the warehouse as a warehouse manager.

Gusta is worthy of being a person who makes movies, and he is worthy of being the person who will be at the helm of Hollywood in the future.

Just when he was thinking about whether the "movie theater death" was a "crisis" or an "opportunity" for the young Chinese, Mr. Raymond, the president of Paramount, who had seen the other side of the matter one step ahead of him, became furious.

"There is nothing good or bad in this world...... Therefore, since the government has issued a ban, then all publicity and screening plans for the drama "Ghost Shadow" will be suspended......"

In Paramount's spacious and bright conference room, President Raymond spoke.

"But the government ban doesn't say you can't release movie discs, yes, it's discs! At the same time, it was not announced that the other two dramas of Dream Pictures, "Buried Alive" and "Horror Cruise", were banned! ”

"So......" Mr. Raymond glanced at the top management at the company meeting.

"So I ask that from now on, all of you focus on these two things. First, immediately start to produce the movie disc of "Ghost Record", and I ask to make at least 3 million copies for me within three days! Second, increase the publicity of the two dramas "Horror Cruise" and "Buried Alive", if my prediction is correct, these two dramas will be accompanied by the 'theater deaths', and the number of moviegoers will explode in full swing......"

The sound stopped abruptly at the word "erupt".

At that moment, Mr. Raymond's eyes were burning, like a tiger seeing its prey, and the original wooden face was like a rainbow!

Under Mr. Raymond's orders, the entire Paramount Corporation went into action.

First of all, Paramount and Dream Pictures reached an agreement to develop a movie disc business together. Immediately, Paramount's copy factory began to work overtime day and night, desperately rushing to produce the drama "Ghost Shadow".

Before the discs were produced, some North American distributors who had received the news came to order them separately.

"I want 100,000 copies!"

"I want 300,000 copies!"

"I want 500,000 sheets!"

……

In less than a day, the 3 million discs ready for production have been booked. And these are all local publishers in North America.

As for the Japanese, Korean, British, French, and even some of the more remote disc distributors, they all rushed over and said, "We want to pre-order!" ”

Only fools don't know how "popular" the play "Ghost" will be.

Sometimes, scaring people to death is not a bad thing, especially for "horror movies......

Paramount's eyes are red!

What does it mean to be selling hot?

What is sales against the sky?

Look!

The copy disc hasn't been released yet, and it's sold out!

Faced with such a vigorous situation, Mr. Raymond waved his hand, "Increase production by 10 million!" ”

Wouldn't it, go straight from 3 million to 10 million?!

That's the number of platinum discs!!

In an instant, all the people in the copy factory went crazy.

What if there are not enough people?

Secondment to other factories!

What should I do if I don't have enough equipment?

Sign a contract to produce together!

10 million "Ghost Shadow" discs. Considered an impossible task by Paramount's people. Layer by layer.

Countless copy factories. Start the machine and boom!

……

While Paramount was trying to copy the "Ghost Shadow" disc and sell it to a foreign distributor, the company also pulled the horror movie "Ghost Record" that it had originally promoted and replaced it with two other drama from Dream Pictures, "Buried Alive" and "Horror Cruise."

In this regard, many people can't help but wonder, why did Paramount do this?

Even if it is highly praised, it should be "Moonlight" without scandals.

But soon, some smart people understood......

Paramount poster. Advertisements, as well as media news, collectively attacked, with the "dream movie scared to death" incident, starting a new round of momentum.

Please note!

It's a "dream movie scared to death" incident!

And not the "Ghost Record" scared people to death" incident!

Paramount directly expanded the concept of events, making Dream Pictures a media theme, and the scenes filmed by the company deservedly became the "theme"!

Among them, of course, includes the "Buried Alive" and "Horror Cruise" that are being touted!

……

The United States is a super-developed country in terms of information, whether it is newspapers and magazines, or television broadcasts. Even the burgeoning computer networking forums......

All those who like movies, there is no one who does not know about it. "The Murder of Old John", "The Old Man Who Died with His Eyes Rolled His Eyes in Fear", and the slogan "Horror movies made by dreams, do you still dare to watch them?" ”

At this moment, young people are aroused by curiosity and competitiveness, especially in the Halloween schedule, what to watch if you don't watch ghost movies?

Since "Ghost Record" has been banned, then watch "Buried Alive" and "Horror Cruise" produced by the same company, after all, it is still produced by the "death director"!

So, people rioted, and in order to see the latest film from the "Death Director" company, everyone went to the cinema in droves to watch "Buried Alive" and "Horror Cruise".

The situation was like a mass march in the streets, forcing police officers in Los Angeles, New York, and Philadelphia to be vigilant to prevent accidents from happening.

In the words of one hard-pressed cop, "Oh my god, it's been a long time since I've seen a movie like this that blew people up!" ”

In short, under the manipulation of Paramount and Yi Feiyang's unparalleled popularity, the two dramas that were not very popular were completely popular!

……

In the box office list of the third week of the North American Halloween schedule, "Scream 2", which is in first place, still retains the championship, and without the threat of the drama "Ghost Record", the drama "Scream" topped the list for the third week with 14 million.

Lionsgate's horror movie "Blair the Witch 2", which was fully created and actively promoted, also climbed to third place again with the ban of "Ghost Record" and became the third runner-up in this schedule.

However, don't think that "Ghost Shadow" was banned, and Dream Pictures was silent; On the contrary, under the push of Paramount, Dream Pictures' other two dramas, "Buried Alive" and "Horror Cruise", broke into the top 10 together, with 3.5 million perfect gold and 3.3 million US dollars, respectively, ranking fifth and sixth in the box office charts.

That's not all, with the continuous increase in the number of moviegoers, by the fourth week, these two dramas had hit the third and fourth places respectively, and the total ticket income of the two dramas also directly exceeded 15 million!

"Witch 2", which was originally proud, was once again trampled under the feet of these two dramas, which can be described as extremely tragic.

Lionsgate has seen the power of Dream Pictures, the power of Yi Feiyang, and the energy of old Paramount, knows how to use the current situation, and knows how to create publicity......

……

28 November 1998.

Seeing that the Halloween schedule has passed, for this schedule, the biggest winner is, of course, the drama "Scream 2", which has won the box office championship for four consecutive weeks, and no one is invincible in this schedule. However, everyone knows clearly in their hearts that if it weren't for the complete ban on the drama "Ghost Shadow" in North America, maybe the big winner of this schedule would have to be replaced.

But it doesn't matter, for Paramount, which provides theaters, and Dream Pictures, which produces "Ghost Shadows", neither side has suffered a loss in this month's time.

"Buried Alive" and "Horror Cruise", two films with an investment of only $190,000, have achieved a total box office income of an astonishing 38 million, and the proportion of investment in income has reached an astonishing 200 times!

That's not all, the most important drama "Ghost Shadow", although it was completely banned in North America, but people are so weird, the more you don't let them do anything, the more they want to do.

The more the U.S. Electricity Inspectorate banned the screening of this play, the more curious those Americans became, how terrifying this play was and how it scared people to death? Especially those young people, they want to see this drama by all means.

In order to fulfill their wishes, Dream Pictures and Paramount have collectively released the disc of the show...... The ban is clear, prohibiting public screenings in North America, prohibiting posters and advertisements, but not prohibiting the production of CDs for sale......

As a result, in addition to the 10 million copies that have already been pre-ordered, the first day of the release of this "Ghost Record" disc in North America, 2 million copies of the retail sales in Los Angeles alone were sold out in a blink of an eye!

Such an amazing scene directly shocked the people of the old company Paramount.

I've been making movies for so long, and I've never seen such a "perverted" sales scene.

You know, this is an area of Los Angeles, if you add up the top ten cities in the United States, wouldn't it be 20 million?!

I thought that the reservation was hot enough, but I didn't expect the retail to be even more rebellious!

I can't help it, continue to work overtime, rush to make new CDs, and pity the copying workers, who are tired and tired these days, in the words of worker Andrei, "Oh man, look, I used to weigh more than 200 pounds, but now I ...... If you're already thin, you can play the role of a monkey! ”

At the same time, there is good news in Asia and Europe, where disc sales have soared with rumors that "Ghost Shadow scares people to death".

Many people can't see this drama in the cinema, so they can only buy a disc and watch it themselves.

As a result, these publishers were no longer satisfied with the mere sale of pre-ordered discs, but instead had the right to buy copies of discs!

Paramount can't do anything about this, after all, the copy rights of this drama are in the hands of Dream Pictures, and even he bought it from others.

After some communication with the senior management of Dream Pictures...... It's mainly the fat man Gao Jiabao who takes care of this matter, this "miser" and "miser" in Yi Feiyang's mouth, of course, will not let Paramount and those damn publishers take much advantage. In the negotiation of the fat man's "baht must be corrected" and "calculating", he made the opponent hurt a lot, but in order to make a fortune, these guys had to endure it.

After the negotiations, Dream Pictures got the most benefits, and the three major disc distributors in Asia and Europe alone paid a heavy price of 7.5 million US dollars, on average, 2.5 million per family!

Two hundred and five!

What a fortune!

For the fat man Gao Jiabao.

It's these fish that have been slaughtered! (To be continued......)
