Chapter 436 This Dog Food, Really, Eats Too Much

Chapter 438 This dog food, really, too much

The morning sun is always so attractive.

At half past six, Lu Yuan got up on time.

Fu Ruisi called Lu Yuan early in the morning, meaning that "Ghost Story" will probably be screened in various theaters in Hollywood tonight. Of course, the screenings are all at midnight, and there are not many films scheduled. .

After all, "Ghost Story" is a horror film, and the investment is very low, so it is impossible for the major theaters in the United States to give this film much treatment. The same is true for China. The movie was scheduled for the midnight slot, and the day slot was reserved for several other movies that were newly released in China...

The outcome of October's box office battle is already clear. "Deep Sea Shark" raked in more than 500 million yuan in 14 days after it was released, and it outshone the crowd. One hundred and sixty million, and the other two hundred and fifty-eight million.

The two films have been fighting for nearly half a month, and the difference in box office is only two million.

This is really...

It's quite stressful.

As for the Hollywood suspense film "October No. 33", it took 35 million at the box office, and the decline is obvious...

no way.

Horror movies are only so big in the Chinese market. Even if the quality of this "October No. 33" movie is not bad, some of them won't watch it.

After all, they don't want to suffer.

When "Ghost Shadow Records" entered Huaxia, it should have been very low-key.

Only a few insiders knew that Lu Yuan's company had made a horror movie in a small Hollywood company.

When the theater released the pre-sale tickets for this movie, the results were not satisfactory.

Basically, less than half of the people bought advance tickets.

Although the title of Hollywood is very useful, but who do you have to share...

after all……

The director is Forex, who failed two movies in Hollywood and almost bankrupted his company.

And the actors are all new faces in Hollywood,

No one knows who it is...

As for the screenwriter, it's even more weird. He wrote two characters in Chinese, eleven.

eleven?

Which idiot would use the strange screenwriter name of Eleven?

This is not a joke...

Total investment……

All right……

After a closer look, it was about $70,000.

$70,000 to make a movie?

What's the joke?

Did you take it with your phone?

You thought it was "The Man From Earth"?

The "Hollywood" movies that combine all kinds of cheating situations are very unpopular with movie fans.

Fans were blinded by the movie's information show, and even Tomato did not have any rankings and ratings for this movie.

Everyone felt that the movie had a strong taste of bad Hollywood movies, and some people even predicted that this movie would become the biggest joke among the movies released by Hollywood in China this year, and none of them.

Of course, some people think that Lu Yuan will fall into a small pit.

What's wrong with you as an agent, but a horror movie?

Is there a market for horror films in China?

Has the box office exceeded 50 million?

No……

The only horror film that broke 50 million was the classic "Panic" two years ago.

"Panic" has spent 30 million investment, okay...

and……

Even if the investment in a Hollywood movie is only 80,000, but if you get it to be broadcast in China, your buyout fee will be at least a few million, right?

A few million, if you go to China to cheat the box office as soon as it is released, or even be taken down after a day or two after it is released, where will you put Lu Yuan's face?

Millions of money are nothing to you, Lu Yuan, but your face doesn't mean millions, does it?

You are a golden hand in movies in the entertainment industry!

Well-known filmmaker Wang Rongguang specially made a calculation for everyone on Weibo.

He is not very optimistic about the future of Ghost Story.

"There is an unwritten rule for Hollywood movies to come to China, that is, the buyout fee cannot be lower than one million dollars..."

"Even if he has one million dollars, it will be converted into RMB 7.8 million."

"7.8 million, so how much box office revenue will it take to recover? At least 20 million box office is required to recover the cost. Yes, this is the cost recovery, which does not include other expenses such as intermediate tax deductions. ...If you're conservative, you'll need twenty-two million dollars..."

"Twenty-two million... Although this box office is very ordinary, it is really difficult to achieve this goal for a horror movie that has always had a small number of films. Everyone understands the current situation of horror and suspense movies in China. The world is in a semi-depressed state..."

"So, this "Ghost Story" may have disappointed Lu Yuan. After all, the miracle of "The Man From Earth" is really impossible to replicate..."

Wang Rongguang's words are very sincere, and at the same time, the content of the words is reasonable.

This Weibo has been reposted countless times, and many people who have long been unhappy with Lu Yuan have left messages under this Weibo, constantly badmouthing Lu Yuan, and even a group of people made a big fuss by using the topic of pre-sale tickets. , said that Lu Yuan was like a flash in the pan, and felt that he might have completely started to go downhill because of this starting point...

But a lot of things are like hitting by mistake. The more people say bad things, the more popular this "Ghost Story" will be. The more people belittle it, the more people will refute it on the Internet...

Indirectly, this "Ghost Story" became a hot search on Weibo.

Also don't forget that Lu Yuan still has a group of loyal fans, and the number is huge!

"What? The movie represented by Ergouzi is about to hit the street? How can this work? I, the president of the Action Film Association of Ergouzi Island, can't bear it! I bought two tickets!"

"Er Gouzi Fan Club came to support, Er Gouzi, although you may represent a bad movie, I can still afford a ticket for tens of dollars... Er Gouzi, come on!"

"I also bought a ticket. The student party has no choice but to support it as much as possible. I hope Er Gouzi will not be hurt by these online doubts!"

"Support, Ergouzi, even though you didn't announce the movie on Weibo, I still want to support you. After all, I don't want your box office to be too ugly..."

"Me too, I also support...huh? Why are there no tickets?"

"I'm gone too..."

"sold out?"

"yes……"

"Damn it, is it so fast?"

"..."

Fans didn't feel anything before.

But after seeing bad news on the Internet, the fans were not happy.

How can our second dog lose face? Is Er Gouzi something you people can talk about?

Even if my second dog really represents an epic bad movie, even if I sleep in the movie theater, I have to sleep until the end of the movie!

Basically, such an uncomfortable thought appeared in every fan's heart!

Then, even though Lu Yuan didn't promote this "Ghost Story" on Weibo, and didn't make much appeal, these fans became excited by themselves.

Then……

After the originally bleak pre-sale tickets were fermented on the Internet and the emotions were so exaggerated, the pre-sale tickets for "Ghost Story" disappeared within a few hours, and even the pre-sale tickets for the next four days were all sold out. up...

Fans who bought pre-sale tickets triumphantly posted a wave of tickets on the Internet, inexplicably feeling a sense of honor as fans.

Fans who couldn't buy tickets were speechless.

They want to post too, but they can't post anything.

The pre-sale tickets after four days are all sold out, what else can I do?

This kind of thing is like comparison, everyone is standing on the same starting line, why don't you have me?

This has an indescribable sense of gap.

…………………………………

"Er Gouzi, we will always support you!"

"Come on Ergouzi, this is our pre-sale ticket, I will continue to buy it when the new one comes out!"

"Ergouzi, we are your Ergouzi Silver Guardians! We will protect your glory!"

"..."

Lu Yuan was very touched when so many people supported him on his Weibo.

But the emotion only lasted less than a minute.

Yes!

After seeing the screen full of Er Gouzi and some fans who thought he was very warm, he specially made a cute cartoon character wearing a Gouzi headgear, and Lu Yuan's heart seemed to be overwhelmed.

He obviously changed his Weibo to Lu Shuai, but why didn't Lu Shuai become popular, but these two dogs spread across the entire Internet like a plague?

Lu Yuan was inexplicably depressed.

Is the screen name not eye-catching enough?

Lu Yuan hesitated for a moment, and changed his Weibo name to "I am Lu Shuai" without further ado, and Lu Shuai added a little emphasis symbol to show that he wanted to be more eye-catching.

Then……

Lu Yuan found that this situation has not changed. Instead, the screen is still full of Ergouzi, and nicknames like Lu Manzi keep coming up.

Has my image collapsed so completely?

I'm so eye-catching, and I've come to hint so properly, so you can't see it?

Lu Yuan had no choice but to follow these sand sculpture netizens after thinking about it.

Just when Lu Yuan turned off Weibo, Lu Yuan heard a knock on the door.

"Come in……"

"..."

"Um?"

The door opened.

Lu Yuan raised his head subconsciously, and saw Wang Jinxue standing at the door in a white dress.

The wind blew her long hair.

She looked at Lu Yuan with a faint smile.

Lu Yuan was taken aback when he saw Wang Jinxue, and subconsciously stood up.

"The dark circles under your eyes are quite dark. It seems that you have been staying up late these days?"

"It's okay... Come in quickly, it's hot, I'll help you make a cup of tea..."

"Drink my tea, I brought some Dahongpao..."

"Uh... Dahongpao? The price is quite expensive, right?"

"Not expensive."

"Your not expensive and my not expensive understanding are really different..."

"Really?"

"Um."

Wang Jinxue looked at Lu Yuan.

He looks really vicissitudes, and at the same time he is a lot darker.

It seems that the sunscreen and other things I prepared for him are useless?

Right……

He probably thinks it's something only girls use.

This person is also true.

"Lu Yuan..."

"Um?"

"..."

Wang Jinxue suddenly stepped forward and gave Lu Yuan a hug, her eyes were full of affection.

"Wait... Do I need to prepare before proceeding to the next step?"

"what to prepare?"

"The last time you made a sudden attack..."

"Really?"

"Click."

"..."

outside.

Lu Yihong originally walked in happily, but after seeing this scene...

The smile faded away.

He looked at the script and turned away without saying a word.

This place feels really unbearable.

………………………

Xu Cancan got off the plane and looked into the distance.

distance……

It should be the crew of "A Chinese Journey to the West", right?
