Chapter 112: Yu Hang

"It's not impossible," Jiang Yang said with a smile: "But I want to confirm with Sister Zhao that there is a good chance that it will be fine." ”

Regarding the filming of the "Fifty Shades of Grey" trilogy, Zhao Shengnan and Jiang Yang have long discussed.

If the box office is not good or the response is mediocre, then it will not be taken again.

The world is bustling, all for profit.

When an actor makes a movie, he either wants to make a lot of money at the box office, or he fights for a word-of-mouth explosion to win the award.

You can't take it all the same!

The one who can't occupy the same is called a street boy.

The current box office performance of "Fifty Shades of Grey" has greatly exceeded Jiang Yang and Zhao Shengnan's expectations.

The brilliance in Chu Moyan's shining eyes became more and more intense: "It's decided." ”

"Well, it's decided," Jiang Yang said jokingly: "I hope Director Chu won't see strange thoughts and fall in love with other actors." ”

"It's impossible, you're not a cabbage, how can you pick it up anywhere."

Sending Chu Moyan away, Jiang Yang stayed in the room and swiped his mobile phone.

One person was too bored, so he went downstairs to chat with Long Fan and the three of them.

The trio regularly work in the café corner, like everyday office workers.

"Yang Zai, why did you go down to earth?" Long Fan chewed gum, like a big sister in high school.

Jiang Yang saw that there was a violinist playing music in a coffee corner, and said with a smile: "I am bored and uncomfortable in the room alone, and I am looking for you to talk." ”

"I'm scared to death," Long Fan patted his chest: "I thought you were sent by Sister Zhao to monitor whether we were paddling!" ”

"No, no," Jiang Yang reacted, he was considered a manager.

As an employee, of course, I want to keep my distance from my manager.

"It's okay, you continue to paddle, I'll paddle too," Jiang Yang said with a smile: "The four of us can play mahjong." ”

"That's what you said," Long Fan smiled.

"Where's the side dishes?" Jiang Yang asked.

He remembered that Ni Jia's assistant Xiaocai was always mixed with the trio, and he didn't even see him today.

"She accompanied Ni Jia to pick out clothes," Li Feiyang said: "Yang Zai, haven't you opened the schedule I sent you?" ”

"Pick clothes? Why do you have the heart to buy clothes at this time? Jiang Yang said, turned on his mobile phone, looked for Li Feiyang's schedule, and explained: "It's not that I don't watch. After the box office data of "Fifty Shades of Grey" came out, there were too many old classmates and old friends who congratulated Daoxi on prestige. ”

He handed the trio the prestige page on his phone, explaining, "When I first left the room, I replied to all the messages. You see, after sitting here for five minutes, the message is 99+ again. ”

"Yang Zai, then you put me at the top, there are some important information that you still need to pay attention to, I'm afraid that I will always annoy you on the phone," Li Feiyang said.

"Okay," Jiang Yang happily agreed, he looked at the bare schedule: "You-what about me, there is no itinerary." ”

Li Feiyang came back to his senses and smiled embarrassedly: "There is a fashion festival on July 15th. Not only do you have to go, but you also have to sing the theme song of "Fifty Shades of Grey" with Ni Jia. ”

"Someone actually asked me to sing, haha," Jiang Yang asked, "So Ni Jia went to buy clothes?" ”

"Definitely not," Long Fan explained, "It's all red like this, of course, those big brands send you the latest fashion for you to choose from." ”

"That's good," Jiang Yang's heart put down.

His outlook on consumption has not kept up with the speed of the bulging wallet, and his thinking has still not been reversed, but he doesn't want to spend tens of thousands or even hundreds of thousands of dollars to buy a suit.

"Sister Zhao said that you have to maintain your low exposure," Li Feiyang explained, "She helped you push a lot of activities." But I see that Ni Jia is crazy about taking jobs, so I can't see Xiaocai and Ni Jia recently. ”

"Understood, then you are busy," Jiang Yang said.

He replied to a teacher's congratulatory message in the alumni group, and the words of gratitude were just sent, which ignited the enthusiasm of the friends in the group.

Seeing this, Jiang Yang sent a big red envelope of 10,000 yuan, and another burst of thanks.

Having said that, he has been numb in the last few days.

And, in just one week, under the rainbow farts of old classmates, old friends, and old acquaintances, Jiang Yang gradually lost himself and has sent more than 70,000 red envelopes......

It was also at this time that he understood why someone would give a reward to the anchor and spend a lot of money.

Two words: Up!

After the blood surges, the sanity is completely cleared!

In the prestige group, you say a word to me, all kinds of praise, praise, and praise are spread along the radio waves like money.

The atmosphere is here, you can't just say thank you and be done, right?

The tone is high, and then the fire is dumb, which is a big thing to spoil the scenery.

Jiang Yang's ears are soft, and those who are confused by lakes and lakes and ghosts send gods will thank him in the most primitive and rude way - send red envelopes.

Let's take it as a good match!

What's more, the economic strength of many people in the group is not low, and they often post movie tickets and make gestures of encouragement, which is quite touching.

When the time came to half past four, Jiang Yang was about to encourage everyone to eat, when his mobile phone rang.

"Director Chu shouted that let's go, and when the viewing party is over, we will immediately go to Yuhang to publicize."

……

Nanjing-Hangzhou Expressway.

On a speeding business van.

Jiang Yang sat in the spacious and open back row, using his tablet to watch videos.

Generally speaking, the general public's perception is three to five days behind the hot spots.

For example, when a movie is premiered, usually only fan groups, or passers-by who have long been interested, will take the initiative to participate.

No matter how popular a movie is, it still needs enough time to ferment, spread, spread, and ignite on social media, and the longer it is brewing, the more significant the long-tail effect will be.

The gray video on the micro-lag has increased significantly, but the popularity can only be said to be a local hot spot, and it has not reached the level of heated discussion among the whole people.

But there are already self-media people who have begun to stand in line.

Almost all of them are positive.

Jiang Yang didn't need to ask, and he believed that no one bought the water army.

Don't play with bells and whistles in a movie, don't use strange narratives such as interludes and flashbacks that reduce the smoothness of watching movies, tell a good story honestly, the director's basic skills are solid, and the actors' personalities match, there is no reason not to receive praise.

In this worse world, passing is excellent.

Long Fan leaned on the back and watched, and said, "Hey, isn't that the professor of "Wonderful Sayings"? ”

"Wonderful Story" is a popular debate variety show in China, and a group of famous Internet celebrity players have emerged.

Seeing that she and Li Feiyang were interested, Jiang Yang turned up the volume: "I found that almost all of the negative reviews of "Fifty Shades of Grey" are not about the shortcomings of the movie itself, but all of them refer to the sexual fetish elements to play on the topic. Fortunately, the grading system has been implemented in China a few years ago, otherwise it will be reported and taken off the shelves. ”

"Huh? What bad reviews did he make? Long Fan's little face drooped: "In vain, I liked him a lot." ”

Jiang Yang: "Yes, Professor Chu said that he was afraid that our movie would bring bad ignorant girls. ”

"This-" Long Fan was speechless: "I found that the old man with a little ink in his stomach especially likes to point out the country, and he must say that he will bring this bad and affect that." It seems that their youth, their lives, will not make mistakes, there will be no setbacks. Mistakes or setbacks are the bits and pieces that make our personality. ”

Jiang Yang showed an amazed gaze: "Yes, Long Fan, I didn't expect you to say such philosophical words." ”

"You watched my "Wonderful Story" in vain?" Long Fan smiled smugly: "I'm a deep fan. Have you seen it? ”

"Take a look at it once in a while," Jiang Yang said.

"Who do you like best?" Long Fan asked.

"Lei Jun?" Jiang Yang thought about it for a long time, and really couldn't remember the name of the player: "The player doesn't have anything to like, I remember that there was an issue, Lei Jun came, I liked it a lot." ”

"What do you like about him?" Long Fan asked strangely in his heart.

Jiang Yang smiled: "I like that his opinion of the show is similar to mine. Isn't there a saying that is widely circulated on the Internet, the programmer's phrase 'talk is e the code'. Roughly speaking, don't force it, show me the code.

The core meaning is to say and do, and there is no half-dime relationship between the two. Even, Lei Jun also said that he is often wary of people who are like a river. ”

"Ahh ”

"Just memorize that thing, just memorize a hundred golden sentences, it's better to get up a day early and read a good book," Jiang Yang said.

In the video, Professor Chu is still heartbroken, and mentioned that there are several cases of accidental death abroad due to playing with special sex.

Li Feiyang next to him had a completely question mark face, and nodded in agreement with Jiang Yang's statement: "Look at these debaters, the Spring and Autumn brushwork has been used to the extreme. "Fifty Shades of Grey" has a rating of R18, and only adults over the age of 18 can buy tickets to watch it. Hasn't he been in contact with girls? Not to mention eighteen years old, thirteen or fourteen-year-old girls are monkey spirits. ”

Then here comes the highlight!

At the end, Professor Chu mentioned that he didn't watch the movie, but just heard fans mention the synopsis of the story, and then did this episode.

"I haven't seen you give a bad review!"

Jiang Yang didn't want to talk anymore.

Tired!

"Forget it, I estimate that when the movie becomes popular, there will be more negative news later," Jiang Yang swiped his finger: "I'll look at other evaluations." ”

He found that on station B, Brother Seven updated the movie impression of "Fifty Shades of Grey".

In the shot, the seventh brother is facing the screen, and the seventh sister-in-law does not appear on the camera, participating in the discussion in the voiceover.

"Yang Yang fans, I have unfortunate news for you. Your seventh sister-in-law has rebelled!! ”

"Fuck off, I didn't, don't talk nonsense. I just made the mistake that a woman would make and fell in love with two men at the same time," the seventh sister-in-law's hand hammered the seventh brother's shoulder.

"And who are you now?"

"I'm both powdered, I've broken my heart in half. The left atrium lives Jiang Yang, and the right atrium lives Yang Yang. ”

"Then you are so affectionate!"

"My name is fraternity!"

At this time, a bunch of green helmet emojis floated over the barrage.

"I asked the seventh sister-in-law why she changed her mind, and the seventh sister-in-law said that it was because the scumbag brother could fly a helicopter."

"Ah, that section is so romantic, a lonely man and a widow, taking a helicopter ride from the magic capital to Yuhang. Just thinking about it, I want to lie in the arms of the scumbag,"

"Middle-aged women dreaming in moderation helps the family to have fun," Qige quipped.

"You're still a middle-aged greasy man!" The seventh sister-in-law scolded.

"Okay, let's get down to business, we won't spoil the plot. Speaking of the theme, I think "Fifty Shades of Grey" is really a masterpiece, whether it is the image of the actors, the rendering and scheduling of romantic scenes, the development of the emotional line of the male and female protagonists, or even the brainwashing theme song, in all aspects, it has achieved the pinnacle of the domineering president movie. ”

Seventh Brother continued: "At the end of the movie, your seventh sister-in-law asked a soul question, and the tone felt like every word had an exclamation mark: Why hasn't anyone ever made a pure overbearing president movie? Brother Qi thought about it for a while, it was really, of course, the domineering president is an old routine for us to ridicule female frequency.

But Brother Qi thought a lot on the way home, doesn't the routine mean that there are many people who love to watch? This type can last for a long time.

If you want to talk about male frequency, the crooked mouth dragon king who has been very popular in the station recently, the three-year period has reached the series.

You said that if a director really invited a reliable editorial team and invited outstanding actors and actresses to shoot such a story of pretending to be forced to slap the face with revenge elements, would the box office explode?

Many people say that the crooked-mouthed Dragon King is a universal routine in the new century - pretending to be forced to slap his face, but Seventh Brother feels that it is still a new bottle of old wine, and it should be put in the revenge type.

Revenge is a great cool point, because as long as it is based on the starting point of revenge, our words and deeds are justified.

You look at "The Count of Monte Cristo" hundreds of years ago, and now you look at it, revenge is also a great pleasure.

It can only be said that Chu Moyan, a young director, has keen business thinking and has grasped the pain points of modern youth. ”

“……”

Jiang Yang saw the end and was a little lost: "A lot of space is praising Chu Moyan, don't you praise me?" I think I'm pretty good at acting. ”

"Didn't everyone say that the image of an actor is the pinnacle of a domineering president movie?"

Jiang Yang felt that it was not enough, but he could only say lonely: "Okay." ”

Opening the meow eye, Jiang Yang looked at it for a long time, his brows furrowed.

As a screenwriter, he is more commercial, so he paid attention to the box office when he was in college.

He feels that the attendance rate of today's "Fifty Shades of Grey" is unusually high.

Even on Saturday, the increase was abrupt.

"Is it really that hot?"

This question was answered in the evening.

Yuhang, Oscar Studios.

In the question session of the movie-watching activity, a reporter asked Chu Moyan: "Director Chu, all over the country, many netizens broke the news that they bought and watched "Fifty Shades of Grey" at Wanda Cinema, but the final printed ticket showed other movies. There are rumors that Wanda Films are suspected of stealing the box office, do you want to shout at them? ”

As soon as these words came out, the fans present were immediately indignant.

Those who can come to participate in the offline meeting event are die-hard fans, who will be crazy about Amway's people watching movies, and loyal fans who will invite students to watch movies for free.

When they encounter this kind of thing, sometimes they are even more angry than the righteous one.

Jiang Yang also pricked up his ears and stopped chatting with Ni Jia.

The eyes of the audience were focused on Chu Moyan's body, wanting to see how she responded.

Chu Moyan frowned slightly, this reporter was obviously uneasy and kind, and had been "following the good temptation", she pondered for a moment and replied: "I'm sorry, I'm so busy today that my brain is dizzy, I didn't see what was said on the Internet about stealing the box office." When watching the movie, the name of the ticket does not match, which is a common situation.

As far as I know, if the original movie in the theater is not sold, and the movie is temporarily replaced, there will be a situation where the ticket has the wrong name. But stealing the box office remains to be examined. May I ask, what is your source of information? ”

Reporter: "In the evening news of the official media, some reporters visited several Wanda cinemas in Kyoto and Jinguancheng. ”

Hearing such an authoritative set of official media, Chu Moyan was stunned for a moment, and the organized wording was dumb, and said, "Thank you!" ”

Jiang Yang moved his brain, and he also felt that it was unlikely that Wanda would steal the box office, and it should be a movie that the theater temporarily replaced.

Stealing the box office can involve criminal offenses, and it is extremely easy to leave a handle, which is obviously the lowest rate of return in criminal behavior.

It's the senior managers who arrange the movie schedule in the theater, and they are less likely to take that risk.

On the way back to the hotel, Jiang Yang found a news replay of the movie six sets on the Internet.

Sure enough, the outfield reporter said that he had received a report from the masses in Chaoyang, and found that the bills of a certain Wanda Cinema did not match the real movie, and suspected that they were evading taxes.

Stealing the box office is an unwritten saying in the industry, and the official media has put it into the framework of tax evasion in order to make it easier to understand.

……

Yuhang, the Jiangnan Courtyard on the edge of the West Lake.

In Hsinchu, the fragrance of flowers wafts in the ancient courtyard, and the waterwheel in the courtyard is spinning around unhurriedly, stirring up the turbulent water.

Veiled Hanfu beauties pluck the strings of the guzheng in the high pavilion, and soothing music flows over the courtyard.

In a box in the courtyard, a middle-aged man with a slight fortune was angry, spitting and poking his fingers around in the void.

The middle-aged man's name is Zou Donglong, and his muscles are bursting at the moment: "What did you tell me at the beginning?" Yes? I help you press the film, you help me press public opinion, you press you****, you *** is a ***, **** I** you***. ”

Anyway, the star content is extremely high.

The person who was scolded is named Jiang Fan, the current president of Ahri Entertainment, who is only thirty-seven years old.

He is a computer major from a prestigious university, and he has successfully started a business during college, the company drives innovation with technology, and lights up life with technology, which is a leading unicorn company.

Later, Ahri bought Jiang Fan's company, and instead of taking the money from the sale of the company to live happily, he asked to work in Ahri.

Jiang Fan wanted to step into the Tmall Group under Ahri, but was sent to Ahri Entertainment.

But he was not depressed, he was good at dancing with long sleeves, integrating resources internally, greatly improving the weight of the technical team, and making friends externally.

"Brother Long, you have to be considerate of Brother Fan, the heat of the scarf is already under great pressure, but who would have thought that the official media would come out like this?" Next to her, an Internet celebrity beauty persuaded softly.

Her name is Zhang Dayi, and she is an Internet celebrity that Jiang Fan met in Yuhang.

The matter originated from Jiang Fan's heart knot, he dreamed of entering the Tmall Group and taking the helm of Ahri, a commercial giant ship related to the national economy and people's livelihood.

If you want to enter the Tmall Group, you must make great achievements.

Nowadays, the ancient BAT (Hundred Poisons, Ahri, Tengxun) pattern has long since collapsed, forming a pattern of confrontation between Ahri and Tengxun duopoly.

However, the rookie Byte Jitter has risen strongly, which makes Teng Xun, who focuses on interpersonal entertainment, like a pins and needles.

But Ahri was also uncomfortable, facing the encirclement and suppression of Pinxi and Jingdong.

One of Ahri's major flaws is that he has never made any achievements in the field of social entertainment.

If Ahri Entertainment, which he leads, wins the big cake of film and television entertainment in one fell swoop, why don't you have the opportunity to enter Tmall?

Therefore, Jiang Fan attaches great importance to the box office performance of "Three Lives and Three Worlds".

Speaking of Jiang Fan, it must be mentioned that he is a technology maniac and deeply obsessed with the power of technology.

In the model he gave, the box office of the movie has a strong Matthew effect, that is, the strong are always strong.

In the summer movie, Jiang Fan did a processing based on more than 2,000 data collected, and data analysis showed that the box office potential of "Fifty Shades of Grey" far exceeded that of "Three Lives and Three Worlds".

What's worse is that these two are of the same type.

According to the principle of the Matthew effect, "Fifty Shades of Grey" will definitely suck the attention and box office of "Three Lives and Three Worlds".

Therefore, Jiang Fan spent all his strength to suppress "Fifty Shades of Grey", and the cold curtain on the neck was deliberate.

The point is that Zou Donglong doesn't believe Jiang Fan's technical reasoning, he thinks they are all nonsense.

But Jiang Fan's tongue is bright, and he used byte jitter as an example, saying that their recommendation algorithm is black technology, and Tengxun has been defeated and retreated.

Zou Donglong has a deep understanding that he doesn't do much to brush micro lag, but his wife and children love to play, and he is old for a long time.

Zou Donglong was suspicious and listened to Jiang Fan's nonsense.

He also knows that the theater chain below will definitely play the operation of hanging sheep's head and dog meat, and all this actually has his acquiescence.

So in the end, Wanda's revenue and profits will not be affected, and he took Jiang Fan's benefits for no reason, why not?

But who would have thought that the six sets of weird voices of the always cold official media discussed such a trivial matter for five minutes.

That's the official media, which represents an attitude.

With the end of the six sets of official media, other media platforms have followed up, and some fans have even turned over old accounts and talked about inconsistencies in previous bills.

Under the pressure of public opinion, the senior management of Wanda Group has sent a special investigation team to enter Wanda Pictures.

Zou Donglong was furious and came to Jiang Fanxing to ask for guilt.

Jiang Fan took Zhang Dayi to appease Zou Donglong together.

After Zou Donglong finished venting, Zhang Dayi first served tea and water, and said a bunch of good and soft words.

Jiang Fan saw that Zou Donglu's face improved, so he said: "The pressing film was hinted at by you to your subordinates, and there is no written evidence or recording, what are you afraid of?" ”

Hearing this, Zou Donglong's mind cleared up a little, and he felt that this statement was reasonable, but his mouth was hard: "What am I afraid of?" Do you know how many people are staring at my seat? If you miss the pool, you will be pulled off the horse. ”

Jiang Fan smiled and said no more.

, you don't know who your brother-in-law is? If there is no big mistake, who will dare to touch you?

Zou Donglong: "Then what should I do now?" Do you want to continue pressing the tables? ”

"Poof," Jiang Fan almost broke the gong: "Don't press it, the tree is a big move, let's keep a low profile, keep a low profile." ”

"Damn," Zou Donglong scolded: "What's so good about that broken movie?" Then the rate of rise at the box office is not scientific! ”

Jiang Fan pulled the corners of his mouth and smiled: "I said it a long time ago, my data model shows that it is a big disaster." ”

"Hey! Come and report it off the shelves! ”

……

Yuhang, Xixi Wetland.

Jiang Yang, wearing a mask and black-rimmed glasses, wore a peaked cap on his head, and was on the phone: "Shumin, where are you?" ”

After finishing their work, the two found that their respective locations were very close to the Xixi Wetland, so they made an appointment to press the road.

"Here, brother," Tao Shumin said this and hung up the phone.

Jiang Yang found a taxi parked on the side of the road.

The car door opened, and a tall girl walked out with a smile and a wave of her hand, and she came in a long embroidered dress with a white background with a silk texture.

Jiang Yang looked at it in the dim light, and only thought of the words used by the ancients to describe beauty: ice skin and snow skin, light can distinguish people.
