Chapter 190: "Dragonfly" director Robert
Aerodrome.
The famous director Robert got off the plane.
When he came to this strange country called China, he was in a very bad mood.
"Do you know why my movie was postponed, and what is the explanation given by the other party?"
The assistant next to him said cautiously: "There are some problems with the content and it needs to be re-examined." ”
"Shet."
Robert couldn't help but scold, he is the director of the "Dragonfly" series, the schedule has been set in the United States, and he originally planned to release it in both countries at the same time to squeeze the box office to the greatest extent.
As a result, he suddenly encountered a mysterious force and needed to be postponed.
This made him extremely unhappy.
Sure enough, it is a dark country, and there is no business ethics at all.
When this idea came to Robert's mind, he didn't seem to think about it at all, and his rice country seemed to be like this.
Or rather, it's the same all over the world.
Huaxia's cooperative company attaches great importance to Robert's arrival, and specially arranges a luxury car pick-up, which is personally greeted by the company's boss, which is extremely humble.
Even so, Robert didn't give these people a good look.
In his opinion, if it weren't for the lack of freedom in this country, there would be no need for him to cooperate with these people at all, and the quality of "Dragonfly" alone would be enough to earn a lot of money.
These collaborators did not bring any help to "Dragonfly", but also took away a lot of money that should have belonged to him.
Therefore, Robert's attitude was very arrogant, and during the meeting, the spit star sprayed almost everyone's face.
"The schedule of "Dragonfly 3" has been carefully thought out by me, and if it is postponed, it will bring huge losses."
"I don't care what method you use, anyway, no matter what, "Dragonfly" can't be postponed."
"If you can't, then I wouldn't mind switching to another partner."
The boss of the cooperative company showed a bitter face: "I'm sorry Director Robert, we can't do this at all, this time it's the relevant departments that take action, and no one can change it." ”
Despite having guessed the outcome, Robert was furious.
"Sure enough, it is a country that does not pay attention to business rules, and even the promised schedule can be extended."
The boss of the cooperative company could only helplessly accompany the smiling face, and also complained in his heart.
It's like you're a lot better over there.
After confirming that the postponement of the release was non-negotiable, and there was no way to change it, Robert could only accept this fact.
But that didn't stop him from spraying the people of the partner company with blood.
In his opinion, it is all because the people in the partner company are not capable enough, otherwise "Dragonfly" would not have been postponed.
This time, he lost a lot.
"Dragonfly 3" was originally scheduled to be released simultaneously in the two countries, but now it will be released normally in the United States, but it will be postponed in China.
This will definitely have an impact on the box office in Huaxia.
After the release of the United States, there will inevitably be corresponding resources flowing out, and when netizens watch the pirated version on the Internet, they will not go to the theater to watch the genuine version.
Piracy can never be banned, and it is human nature to like to take advantage, and it can never be changed.
Since there is no way to change the fact that the release has been postponed, the best way is to find a way to reduce the losses caused by this incident to the movie.
In a short period of time, Robert had several options in his mind.
For example, cracking down on piracy and increasing publicity.
"Knock knock."
The blonde, blue-eyed, hot-bodied assistant knocked on the door.
"What's the matter?"
Robert asked.
"Director Robert, there's someone who wants to see you?"
Robert's brows immediately furrowed: "Didn't I say, don't let people disturb me?" ”
The assistant said helplessly: "But this person is different, he is also a director, and he is the director of a billion-dollar box office movie." ”
"Billion box office?"
Robert pouted and smiled: "Maybe in this country, the director of the billion-dollar box office is a big shot, but in my eyes it is nothing." ”
"It's just over 100 million dollars, and it's nothing."
Robert was very confident when he said this, because the "Dragonfly" series he directed had a global box office of nearly $2 billion, a terrifying figure.
"Dragonfly 3" is about to air, and it will be at least a billion dollars at the global box office.
The director of more than 100 million dollars is not worth mentioning at all in his eyes.
"But." The assistant was embarrassed: "This director only used a production cost of one million yuan to achieve a box office of one billion. ”
Million?
Robert was stunned for a moment.
The movie costs a million, but the box office of the movie is a billion!
Box office and cost a thousand to one.
So exaggerated?
"Are you sure you're not wrong, this director only used a million production costs to achieve a billion box office?"
"How can there be such an existence in this country."
Robert instinctively questioned.
He was arrogant and empty-eyed, and he didn't want to believe that there would be such a person.
Although the box office does not represent revenue, the ratio is really amazing.
After so many years of development of Chinese films, there are only one or two such examples, each of which can be talked about for a long time.
How is it possible in a country like China?
"It's really Director Robert, I checked it on the Internet, and that's what it said on the Internet."
Robert smiled contemptuously: "How can things on the Internet be taken seriously." ”
"He must be bragging, anyway, I don't believe that anyone can make a billion box office with one million."
"There can be such people in the United States, but there are absolutely no in this country."
The assistant paused for a moment: "Then I'll let him leave?" ”
Robert shook his head: "No, you can call him up, I'm a little interested in him, and I'm going to expose this liar to my face." ”
"Okay."
The assistant nodded and left the room.
While waiting for the assistant to bring people in, Robert also checked the information on his mobile phone by the way.
He is very good at Chinese and has no pressure to use Huaxia's software.
Soon, he found a lot of information.
This director named Xu Nan does have a billion-dollar box office movie under his name, and the cost of the movie is one million.
Robert laughed at the time.
How is this possible.
This director named Xu Nan must have falsely reported the cost.
Soon, the assistant brought Xu Nan up.
He was smiling, his eyes were sincere, and he looked extremely sincere.
"Hello, Director Robert."
Xu Nan smiled and took the initiative to say hello.
Robert raised his chin haughtily and said to his assistant in English: "Tell him that I don't know Chinese, let him talk to me in English, and ask him to leave if he doesn't know English." ”
Xu Nan was stunned for a moment.
The Internet spread that this director named Robert is very good in Chinese, how to say that he can't speak Chinese.
But it doesn't matter, he can speak English too.
"Hello, Mr. Robert, my name is Xu Nan and I am a director."
Xu Nan changed to English and said hello to Robert.
