Chapter 447 Forrest, Who Doubts Life

Chapter 449 Forrest, who doubts life

"Oh, God!"

"This movie gave me a creepy feeling. Even though there were no monsters in this movie until the end, I felt chills behind me watching it!"

"At first I thought the pictures on DV were terrible, and I even had the urge to leave the cinema, but after watching it for a few minutes, I was suddenly attracted by the plot, the sense of reality! Yes, my God, I finally Thinking about why this movie was shot on DV, it feels real! Yes, the blurry DV picture just highlights the realism of this movie! Director Fu Ruisi asked for a coincidence!"

"Oh my God, who is the screenwriter Eleven? He is a genius. It reminds me of the previous "The Man From Earth"...Although they are two films with different themes, they seem to have stepped out of traditional films. way!"

"Maybe this is a revolution in movies? Maybe horror movies can be produced without too many special effects, too many shooting equipment and scenes?"

"There is no doubt that this "Ghost Story" is the best horror movie this year... no, it is the best horror movie in the past few years! It is much better than that "October No. 33"! Although "October No. 33" It is also scary, but the feeling of fear is only produced when watching it. As for this "Ghost Story", it seems to be endlessly memorable. Even after watching it, I still feel shivering, as if there is something in the room ...I shouldn't be able to sleep at night..."

"The name of the movie "Ghost Story", wait! Is it possible that everything in this movie is true, maybe, this is a documentary?"

"..."

"Ghost Shadow Records" is indeed praised and criticized in China.

But in the United States, it is well-received.

At first, not many people went to the cinema to watch the movie, and the tickets were sold at ordinary times, but after the first group of people watched "Ghost Story" and were frightened, they immediately went to the largest movie network in the United States and wrote tremblingly. own message.

Realism!

Yes, Laomei is more interested in ghosts and ghosts. In addition, although the plot in "Ghost Shadows" seems plain, when you really watch it, you will feel that this movie The suffocating horror in the movie...

This sense of terror is persistent! It's not just short-lived like "October 33rd".

The ratings of "Ghost Story" also started to rise in an instant,

The overall score of the online movies of Sweet Potato Movies is 10. This "Ghost Story" instantly got a high score of 8.8 points, which directly dropped "October No. 33" by a full 3 points and ranked in the top ten of Hollywood movies' cutting-edge ratings. , not only has the score reached the top ten, but some horror fans even tried to put this "Ghost Story" on the recommended position of classic must-see...

Overnight, this "Ghost Story" seems to have a trend of explosion...

Generally speaking, for a movie with an investment of 70,000, the premiere can reach 100,000 US dollars, and the box office results are considered good. Now, the first day of the premiere directly came to 200,000...

This……

and many more!

It's exploded!

"It exploded, it exploded!"

"It's unbelievable, this movie actually, actually exploded!"

Forrest stayed up all night, staring at the online reviews and box office with bloody eyes. In the past, the box office would come out in the early morning of the same day, but this time the box office statistics of the major theaters seem to be very slow...

Forrest waited from early morning until noon the next day to get the box office statistics of the major theaters!

When the final box office statistics came out, Forex's eyes widened!

……………………………

"Boss...is he here?"

"What's wrong?"

"Dearest boss, guess what I'm doing calling you now? It's midnight over there, right?"

"How much is the box office of Ghost Story?"

"Boss, can't you cooperate with me a little bit? It's too much for you to ask the box office as soon as you come up. Can you have a sense of humor?"

"Ah...Forrest, it's incredible that you can call me, God, what's the big deal? I'm so excited..."

"boss……"

"What's wrong?"

"Your acting skills are a bit exaggerated..."

"Didn't you say you won't cooperate? I'll cooperate with you..."

"Boss, this taste is different, this...you should be more sincere..."

"Well, my dear Forex, let me ask you sincerely, what is our box office?"

over the phone.

Forex's smile faded away.

The excitement gradually became tangled.

He felt that the scenario he had planned was completely different.

intend……

He cadenced and faltered, and deliberately asked some other questions, and then went around to the box office. Of course, the box office also had to sell well, and he had to wait until he was ready to tell his boss about the final results.

However……

My boss doesn't follow the routine at all.

The reaction was completely beyond his expectations.

Although the voice, tone, and language of the boss cooperated just now...

but……

Why does it sound like an attitude of taking time to deal with it casually?

Forrest suddenly felt a little hurt.

Finally, Forres took a deep breath.

"Boss! The box office of our "Ghost Story" just broke 200,000..."

"Oh……"

"boss."

"What's wrong?"

"Our box office on the premiere day exceeded 200,000!"

"I heard, 200,000...Well, although the grades are a bit bad, don't be discouraged, it will get better, in fact, the grades are not bad... You can save your capital, and maybe you can make a little money."

"what?"

"It's getting late, don't think too much, and don't be sad. We Huaxia have a saying that failure is the mother of success... If you fail this time, you will succeed next time? Good night..."

"Oh... good night, boss."

"Good night."

After Forres hung up the phone, he looked blankly into the distance.

Is there something wrong with what I just said?

Failure is the mother of success?

and many more!

its not right!

Did we get a bad grade on Ghost Story?

Not bad!

The total investment was less than 80,000 U.S. dollars, but the box office on the first day was 200,000. This is a horror movie!

Moreover, this result was obtained in a state where there was not much support at all and the amount of filming was average. This result is actually quite good, right?

Even in the midnight movie of the same period, "Ghost Story" has the potential to become a hit.

but……

Why are you still comforting me?

Forres couldn't figure it out, he put down the phone and sat on the office chair, and fell into self-doubt.

He subconsciously looked out the window.

The noon sun outside the window seemed to dazzle him a little.

America is noon, China is midnight...

At this time, Forres suddenly felt a little stunned.

He suddenly understood!

Looking at Lu Yuan's starting films, it seems that they have always been big box office with a small investment...

"Groundhog Day", "Buried Alive", "The Outcast"...

These movies also don't have much investment.

But the box office is getting stronger and stronger.

Especially "The Man From Earth"...

When thinking of "The Man From Earth", Forex took a deep breath and compared it with his own "Ghost Story".

It seems that the box office of "Ghost Story" is really not very good after such a comparison.

It seems that the boss is very dissatisfied.

In just a few minutes, Forres went from excitement to loss, to loss and then to reflection, and then to reflection.

Just when he thought he understood the boss's mood thoroughly, his phone rang.

"boss?"

"Ah, Forrest, congratulations! Congratulations to our "Ghost Story" box office hit, I will go to the United States to give you a celebration banquet when I have time!"

"???"

What?

Forrest shuddered and almost missed the phone.

The voice on the other end of the phone was very excited, and it sounded a little bit excited.

Forex stared at the phone as if he had seen a ghost, and then stared at it for a long time.

At this moment, when he saw that the phone was indeed Lu Yuan's number, and Lu Yuan's voice was also on the phone, he became confused.

? ? ?

Boss, is this schizophrenic?

……………………………………………

Although Lu Yuan's brain circuit is slightly different from other people's, it is not to the point of schizophrenia.

He's at least mentally normal.

Busy until midnight, the whole person is more or less tired.

Fatigue caused the brain to react a beat slower.

When he heard Forex say 200,000 at the box office, he thought that the 200,000 at the box office was in RMB and not in dollars, but he automatically converted the more than 70,000 dollars he had invested into more than 500,000 RMB in his mind... …

In other words, the way he transitioned was just a little off.

Compared with the box office of 200,000 RMB for an investment of 500,000 RMB, the results in China are indeed pretty average, even for horror movies...

I burned 500,000 investment, 200,000 for the premiere, and deducted the box office share. Can this result be said to be good?

It's just a small profit at most...

A small profit is acceptable, at least not a loss...

Lu Yuan yawned and went to bed...

But when he was lying down, he was suddenly startled!

wrong!

Forres seems to be...

Where is his dollar?

Fuck! Fuck!

He is sober!

I won't be sleepy in an instant...

If two hundred thousand US dollars is converted into RMB, that is 1.4 million RMB!

Invested 600,000 RMB, earned 1.4 million RMB box office, and it was the first day...

This is completely earned, okay? It can be said that it has made a lot of money!

then……

He was excited, and immediately called Forres to congratulate him, as if he completely forgot that he was comforting Forres just a few minutes ago, saying that failure is the mother of success...

………………………

James frowned.

He naturally pays attention to the box office of "Ghost Story".

The box office did not exceed his expectations, and it was indeed a small hit.

After watching the box office, James stared at the screenwriter and director.

He noticed one thing.

Although Fu Ruisi is the director, but in the detailed information, Fu Ruisi seems to be an executive director...

An executive director is not the same as a director.

The difference inside is quite big. If you really want to think about it carefully, then it is a character like the assistant director.

eleven……

James noticed the screenwriter again.

Maybe Eleven is the director of this movie?

Forex is just an agent?

He frowned.

He checked the information online.

But nothing at all...

Then he called Jenny.

A few minutes later Jenny walked in with some files.

"Director James...here is the profile of the screenwriter Eleven."

"Why are the information all blank?"

"Can't find..."

"Huh? You can't even find out?"

"Yes, Forex has done a good job of keeping secrets, we can't find any information at all..."

"..."

James frowned deeply.

eleven……

Who is Eleven?

Why is there no information?

Is it deliberately hidden?
