It took a lot of effort for Michael to finally break free from the entanglement of reporters.

Jerry Brumheimer's sexual assault scandal exploded like an atomic bomb, swept the Internet, and became the hottest news at present.

Good things don't go out, but bad things spread thousands of miles.

Everyone loves gossip, especially this kind of gossip with scandals.

Netizens and reporters are not to mention how excited they are, and they want to know the situation.

In several successive publicity campaigns, reporters asked about Jerry Blusheimer, which made Michael extremely tired.

The key matter has not been solved yet, it is still entangled, and I don't know if it is true or not, and what the final result will be.

Michael didn't dare to talk nonsense either.

What he is most afraid of now is that this matter will be confirmed, so that the film will be affected.

A scandalous actor can have a devastating impact on a movie's word-of-mouth.

Fortunately, Jerry Brushheimer's matter has not yet been determined, and the two sides are still entangled, and their impact on the movie is limited.

But netizens won't care so much, and online public opinion began to develop in a direction that was unfavorable to the movie.

"A rapist's movie, I don't think it's necessary to watch it."

"Director Michael was a bit unlucky to meet such an actor."

"I have long predicted that this movie will not be good, because Xu Nan has not touched the porcelain movie, and it is known that Xu Nan's movies are very exciting, so it can be concluded that Xu Nan's movies that do not touch porcelain are not exciting, because the movie is not exciting, so the movie results will not be good, and the current situation of "The Lone Ranger" perfectly verifies my prediction."

"Upstairs man, you're such a genius, your predictions are so accurate."

"I didn't believe your prophecy before, but it turns out I'm wrong."

"I've already thought about it, the name of this law is Xu Nan's law of porcelain, everyone can predict the quality of the movie through this law when they watch movies in the future."

"Awesome law, I'll use it."

The remarks on the Internet, of course, Michael noticed.

Now is the critical moment when the movie is about to be released, and he is very concerned about online public opinion, because it will affect the box office of the movie.

Seeing that netizens came up with a so-called Xu Nan's law, Michael was speechless.

What is outrageous Xu Nan's law, there is no scientific basis at all.

This time it was purely the blind cat that bumped into the dead mouse, and if it weren't for Jerry Brumheimer's alleged sexual assault, the movie wouldn't have been affected.

It's a matter of luck, and it has nothing to do with the quality of the movie.

But Michael was in no mood to focus on this kind of thing, because he had more important things to work out.

Because public opinion on the Internet is very unfavorable to the movie, coupled with Jerry Brumheimer's sexual assault scandal, the theater chain notified Michael that he would readjust the movie schedule.

It was a bolt from the blue for Michael, even more alarming than when he saw the Jerry Brumsheimer scandal.

Anyone who knows a little bit knows how much impact the movie schedule will have on the box office of the movie.

If there is no good film schedule, even if it is a peerless classic movie, it will be difficult to achieve a good box office.

The most obvious example of this is the real and fake movie incident some time ago.

Cameron's movie is extremely exciting, but because the three major theaters do not schedule films, it only got a box office of more than 300 million in the end.

Xu Nan's movie is extremely rubbish, but because of the strong support of the three major theater chains, it finally got a box office of 470 million.

This is the best case of theatrical scheduling affecting the box office of a movie.

It can be said that film scheduling is equivalent to the fate of the movie.

Originally, Michael had negotiated the specific film schedule with the theater company before, but because of a series of recent events, the theater company was not very satisfied with the film schedule and wanted to readjust and reduce the film schedule of "The Lone Ranger".

Michael, of course, could not agree.

Facing the representatives of the theater chain, Michael argued: "Everyone, hasn't the movie schedule been said yet, why should it be temporarily adjusted." ”

The representative of the theater chain: "Yes, the film schedule has long been agreed, but you have also seen the current situation, Jerry Blusheimer is suspected of sexual assault, the audience boycotts this movie, we must be responsible for the audience, and the screening of bad movies will affect the traffic of the theater." ”

Michael said bitterly: "Jerry Brosheimer's sexual assault on others is fake, it has not been confirmed, as for the resistance of the Internet, it is only a small number of people, and things on the Internet cannot be taken seriously." ”

The representative of the theater chain shook his head: "Director Michael, things can't be seen like this, whether Jerry Brushheimer's sexual assault is true or not, it has affected the reputation of the movie and made some audiences not want to watch this movie."

As for the boycott on the Internet, it also represents the opinion of some people, and the most important thing is that Director Xu Nan did not touch your movie, according to Xu Nan's law, it means that your movie will not be popular with the audience. ”

"Wardfark?" Michael couldn't help but burst into a foul mouth.

God's special Xu Nan's law, what kind of outrageous law is this, do you cinemas still believe in this?

Instead of believing in this Xu Nan's law, it is better to believe in divination, at least it is more reliable.

Michael retorted sternly: "I can understand the first two reasons, but the so-called Xu Nan's law is simply too outrageous, how can you theaters believe in science, how can you believe in such outrageous things." ”

The theater representative nodded: "Director Michael, I am a graduate of Harvard University, I agree very much with you saying that this law is outrageous, but stupid audiences believe this thing." ”

"You know what I mean, the audience believes this, then we must believe it, because the audience will choose what movie they want to watch because of this outrageous law, as practitioners in the film and television industry, we can only follow the audience's ideas."

Michael had nothing to say.

Because what the representative of the theater said is very reasonable.

The main reason is that Internet public opinion is now very unfriendly to the movie "Lone Ranger".

First Xu Nan refused to touch the porcelain movie, and then there was the movie star Jerry Brusheimer's alleged sexual assault scandal, and the two things together led to this embarrassing situation.

The cinema chain also watches people put down dishes, and when they find that the response to the movie network is not good, they have to lower the film schedule, because they don't want the theater traffic to decrease.

"In short, Director Michael, the Lone Ranger's film schedule must be lowered, but if the film has a good response after its release, we will increase the film schedule according to the situation."

The representative of the theater left a sentence and left.

Michael sighed weakly, the current situation was really tricky.

And the theater side said that after the movie is released, the response will be good, and the film will be released, which is just a comforting empty word.

At that time, it was too late for the theater to schedule the films, and the lost box office could not be recovered.

In short, the key to the problem now is to reverse the unfavorable public opinion on "The Lone Ranger" on the Internet and increase the popularity of the movie.

As long as public opinion reverses and the popularity of the movie explodes, the guys in the theater chain who see the wind and rudder will definitely raise the film schedule.

No one will have trouble with money, especially cinemas.

But what can be done to reverse the unfavorable public opinion about "The Lone Ranger"?

The Jerry Brumheimer scandal is difficult to solve, and he can't intervene in this area.

Michael's brows were furrowed, and he pondered for a long time, but he still had no clue.

At this time, the producer suggested: "Director Michael, it's better to let that Chinese director Xu Nan touch your movie, which can divert the audience's attention." ”

Michael was stunned and looked at the producer sharply.

Actually let me beg Xu Nan to touch my movie?

There is no mistake.
