Chapter 51: Life is full of surprises [1/2]
This time for the release of "The Tuner", Zhang Mu can be said to do everything.
After all, this is his first theatrical movie in the true sense.
Originally, he still wanted to invite Jay Chou and Sun Yanzi to run a few roadshows, but unfortunately the agent didn't pay attention to this stubble at all after hearing about it.
However, Jielun is still very particular about being a person, although I don't have time to come, but I still made a promotional VCR and sent it, I have to admit that he has been really popular in recent years.
That night, after coming out of Shanghai Huanyi Cinema, Zhang Mu and others hurriedly rushed to Xingmei Zhengda Cinema, and it was not until one o'clock in the morning that they finally ended their publicity in Shanghai and rushed to Lin'an.
On the bus, everyone was already asleep, but a howl suddenly woke everyone up.
Zeng Li and the little fairy, who were leaning together hand in hand, suddenly opened their eyes in displeasure and stared at Zhang Mu with a death gaze.
But Zhang Mu didn't pay attention to it at all, and after repeatedly confirming the text message several times, he grinned and said: "The box office on the first day is out...... Less than 10 million. ”
Speaking of this, he deliberately paused slightly, but when he was about to sell Guanzi, the mobile phone was immediately snatched by the rebellious little fairy.
"One, ten, hundred, thousand, thousand, ......"
After counting it, the little fairy may have fallen asleep, so she blinked her big watery eyes, looked at Zhang Mu unhappily and asked:
"Oops, it's annoying, how much is it?"
Zhang Mu was not amused anymore, and immediately smiled:
"At present, the feedback collected is 4.75 million, but the data of some cities has not been reported, so the final result of more than 5 million should not be a problem."
This data is definitely incomparable with Lao Mouzi, but it has definitely surpassed most directors.
You must know that the current situation in China is that movies with a box office of more than 10 million are already good, and most directors are still moving towards this goal.
So in the originally lifeless bus, a cheer suddenly sounded.
The power of money is really terrifying.
A few beauties of all sizes, who were still listless, were now energetically surrounding Zhang Mu's mobile phone, constantly studying the text messages on it, as if the box office could be doubled with one more look.
Jiang Wu, Huang Bo and Fan Wei were a little more steady, of course, it could be that they couldn't pull down and grab things with the little girls, so they all crowded to Zhang Mu and asked him to predict the final box office.
At this moment, Zhang Mu's mood couldn't help but be a little excited, although he saw the scene of breaking 100 million yuan in a single day in the later life, but the nature was different.
No matter how fierce the box office of the movies in later generations is, it is someone else's. At the moment, although five million on the first day does not seem like much, it is the box office of his movie in the end.
Faced with the questions of Huang Bo and others, Zhang Mu thought about it and didn't dare to say anything.
"Judging from the comments on the Internet, the reputation of our movie is not bad, if the follow-up can be stabilized, it should not be a problem to recover the cost this time."
Seeing Zhang Mu say this, Huang Bo and Fan Wei were relieved, after all, as long as the company did not lose money, then they would still have the opportunity to continue to cooperate.
Because of the excitement of the box office on the first day, although everyone in the next roadshow crew was still very tired, their spirits were much better.
In many cases, it is not that young people are unwilling to work hard, but that no matter how hard they try, they can't see any hope for upward mobility, which is the source of the disease!
But it's a pity that the little fairy only accompanied the crew for the first three days of the roadshow because of time constraints, and then returned to the crew of "Fairy Sword" to continue filming.
Although Zhang Mu was a little pity, he also knew that the Tang people were also benevolent and righteous.
Fortunately, with the popularity of the album "Red Ling", Zeng Li's popularity is also rising rapidly, and she can meet her fans almost everywhere.
So almost every time she had to sing a song before the crew could get out.
……
April 26, evening, 11 o'clock.
After the last roadshow, the crew finally embarked on the return flight.
On the plane, looking at Zeng Li's haggard face, it was Zhang Mu, who had always been thick-hearted and black-hearted, and he couldn't help but feel a little embarrassed at the moment.
But there really can't be helped.
Although Huang Bo's songs are not low-sound, his powerful face really can't attract a few fans.
So this time, the main propaganda force, after the little fairy left, was almost carried by Zeng Li.
Thinking of this, Zhang Mu silently asked the flight attendant for a glass of milk and handed it to Zeng Li.
Seeing this, Zeng Li couldn't help but look at him suspiciously.
"Milk to sleep, rest for a while, I'll call you when it's time!"
Zhang Mu looked at her panda eyes seriously.
Zeng Li was stunned for a moment when he heard this, and then suddenly smiled, and didn't say anything more. Immediately silently took the milk and drank it, and then closed his eyes with relief.
Zhang Mu looked at Zeng Li who was sleeping silently, and he didn't know what to think about.
However, although Zhang Mu's roadshow is over, the turmoil about "The Tuner" has not stopped.
Just a few days ago, the Western main theme movie "Horror Secret Service" dressed in Hollywood skin was finally released.
As a result, even the most die-hard Hollywood movie lovers left scolding after watching it.
Anyway, the story is clichéd only one aspect, and the biggest problem with this movie is that it is too mediocre.
It's just rotten, and it's not rotten at all.
Some Hollywood movie lovers can even guess the details of the follow-up story without any surprises.
But it's not a special effects blockbuster, so passers-by and audiences don't feel it anymore, which makes the theater empty and happy.
Originally, Hou Yong was quite happy about the crotch pull of "Horror Secret Service", after all, the name of Hollywood blockbusters is still quite scary.
But before he could be happy, he found that although the paper tiger was gone, a wild wolf came out of behind "Jasmine Blossom".
After the release of "The Tuner", the high reputation made Hou Yong panic. He really didn't expect that his family would walk twice in a row.
But just when Hou Yong was thinking about how to deal with it, a phone call from the producer almost sent him to the hospital.
"What? Ungearing? ”
After asking countless reasons on the phone, Hou Yong finally hung up the phone with a dejected face.
After being silent for a long time, when he wanted to tell Zhang Ziyi the news, he was told by his assistant that Zhang Ziyi had left with a gloomy face long before he answered the phone.
Hearing this, Hou Yong couldn't help but laugh at himself with a dejected face, and he didn't want to say anything anymore.
In fact, the reason for the withdrawal of "Jasmine Blossom" is difficult to explain clearly for a while.
However, the most fundamental reason is the contradiction between the management and the management.
