Chapter 16: Something Is Wrong with the World?

Under normal circumstances, when a reporter is invited, a red envelope is given.

This is already an industry practice.

The red envelope does not need too much, just the intention is there, after the reporter gets the red envelope, he will naturally be merciful when he writes, so as not to embarrass the interviewer.

But why, it's been so long, and the people at Summit Film and Television haven't said anything at all.

The reporters present were in a strange state.

In front of them, Xu Nan and Liu Yang finished moving the tables, chairs and benches, and they were about to leave, and finally a reporter couldn't bear it anymore and hurriedly went up to ask.

"That's... Director Xu Nan, have you forgotten something? ”

Xu Nan looked around and shook his head: "No, we didn't bring anything when we came, and there is nothing to forget at all." ”

"Ahem..."Liu Yang coughed loudly beside him.

Xu Nan suddenly realized: "Oh, you mean red envelopes." ”

"No, our peak film and television is so popular now, it's already good that I didn't ask you for an interview fee, and I still want a red envelope, dreaming?"

The reporters who asked widened their eyes in disbelief.

Nima still wants us to pay for interviews?

Yes, there is such a thing as an interview fee, but that is usually when we take the initiative to interview others.

Now you invited us to come to the press conference and asked us for an interview fee!

Can you get a face?

Soon, the matter of Xu Nan not giving red envelopes spread throughout the crowd that attended the press conference.

These reporters, who had been blowing in the cold wind for a long time, immediately exploded their lungs.

"Damn, this guy still wants us to send him news, and he doesn't even give him red envelopes."

"Inviting us over was originally meant to give red envelopes, but this guy doesn't understand the rules at all."

"Damn, I'll write a press release and scold him when I go back."

"I was still thinking about whether to write a tact, but now, a tactful chicken, scold him to death."

"I've never seen anyone so brazen."

...

Li Hua was also angry.

I've never seen such a stingy filmmaker.

Do you even have a clockwork towel?

Or a few bucks.

What we want is not a red envelope, but your sincerity.

Now since you're not sincere, don't blame me for being rude.

......

Back to the company.

Liu Yang asked worriedly: "Mr. Xu, is it really okay not to give red envelopes to these reporters, according to the usual practice, you have to give some." ”

"No one has ever failed to give, I'm afraid..."

"I'm afraid they'll hack us by writing press releases, right?" Xu Nan asked rhetorically.

Liu Yang nodded.

Xu Nan smiled: "Then let me ask you, there are two news articles in front of you now, one is that a person is praised for his good deeds and good deeds, and the other is a person who robs a bank, which one will you read first, and which news will you remember more deeply." ”

"I..."

Liu Yang wanted to say good people and good deeds, but in the end he couldn't speak.

Because he knows in his heart that although good people and good deeds are a little more positive, robbing a bank is actually more eye-catching.

Xu Nan continued: "There is a saying that good things don't go out, and bad things spread thousands of miles. ”

"Anyway, our movie is bad enough, even if it is praised, no one will believe it, so it is better to let more people scold, so that it can attract more people to watch."

Liu Yang nodded thoughtfully.

It seems to be true.

When the Internet is full of voices that the movie is bad, it can stimulate the curiosity of some people, prompting them to go to the cinema to see the movie and see how bad the movie really is.

Originally, the movie they shot was not a classic blockbuster, which can be praised by everyone.

It's better to do the opposite and focus on attracting some people to come and watch, which is also a viable business strategy.

The current box office trend of "Sunny Riverside" perfectly verifies this truth.

......

"Shocked, Xu Nan said that Zhang Yange deliberately touched porcelain, so he took the same movie name."

"The people of the whole country listened, Xu Nan said that the movies he shot were classic movies, and the audience felt that they were not good-looking because the aesthetic level was too low."

"Xu Nan: If you can't understand my movie, it means that your aesthetic level is not good."

"Xu Nan said that if he plagiarized, the whole family would die."

"Use the death of the whole family to prove yourself, why did Xu Nan come to this point."

"Xu Nan explored Liu Dongdong's fart, and bluntly said that it was too rubbish, and it was disgusting to him."

"The story that Xu Nan and Liu Dongdong have to say, warning, involves the lower body parts, and it should be opened carefully."

...

In the hotel, looking at the press release of Xu Nan on the Internet, Zhang Yange smiled happily.

The eyes of the masses were bright.

A director like Xu Nan, who relies on crooked ways, even if he can be proud for a while, in the end, he will still be spurned by everyone.

Public opinion on the Internet is a good proof of this.

At this time, Zhang Yange's secretary walked in.

"Director Zhang, the statistics are out, the box office of our movie is 60 million."

Zhang Yange smiled: "I know that as long as I make a movie well and make a movie with my heart, the audience will definitely be able to feel my sincerity and give me rich rewards." ”

The box office of 60 million is higher than the box office on the first day.

What does this mean?

It shows that this movie is bound to be a big hit.

Zhang Yange was relieved and could go back to sleep well.

Before leaving, he asked in passing.

"By the way, what is the box office of that "Sunny Riverside Picture" today?"

The secretary replied with a strange expression, "Uh... Close to 20 million! ”

"it!"

Zhang Yange was shocked instantly: "Didn't the single-day box office before "The Riverside Scene on a Sunny Day" never exceed 10 million, why did it suddenly jump to 20 million?" ”

The secretary was silent.

Zhang Yange also knew that he couldn't get an answer from his secretary.

But he couldn't figure it out.

He made movies seriously, tried his best to promote them in various ways, and at the same time managed to expose "The Riverside Scene on a Sunny Day", a fraudulent movie that stole their box office.

That's it, the box office of the movie "Riverside Scene at Qingming Festival" has only increased by 20%.

But Xu Nan casually made a bad movie, a bad movie that everyone on the Internet was scolding. The box office has bucked the trend and doubled.

What a situation!

Is there something wrong with the world?
