Chapter 70 Director Shen, Is Your Heart Okay?
""Buried Alive" counterattacked? Also joined the box office war?"
"It's time for a counterattack! Based on the quality of this film after rectification, I feel fully qualified to compete!"
"That's a literary film. A literary film and a commercial film are not at the same level at all!"
"What's wrong with literary films? Are literary films a head short?"
"That's not what I mean, what I mean is, his total investment is not much!"
"There are also cases of counterattacks in literary and artistic films. Although there are not many, it is still possible after all!"
"Oh, what's the total box office ranking now?"
"Fifth."
"Fifth... well... How far is it from "The Capital"?"
"Let me see, the total box office of "The Capital" is 31 million, and "Buried Alive" is 21 million."
"Just ten million short?"
"yes!"
"It seems that the distance is not much, and I really can't do a counterattack!"
"Yeah, it depends on the follow-up. By the way, look at the major theaters. Their schedule and promotion of "Buried Alive" have also caught up!"
"Phew, these theater chains finally have their brains, and they know that gold mines still have to be dug..."
"Of course..."
On Tomato.com, there are more and more discussion posts about "Buried Alive" in the major movie post bars and art bars. The popularity of "Buried Alive" is setting a new record every day. Finally, it reached Tomato.com's full movie ranking in six days. The tenth place on the homepage list.
The counterattack of low-cost literary and artistic movies is what many netizens want to see, and the production of "Buried Alive" after the rectification is very sophisticated, which makes them very comfortable to watch. There are also some literary and artistic elements who like this movie to the bottom of their hearts and are crazy about it every day They are all analyzing the connotation contained in this film and whether the ending of this film is bright or dark...
Countless controversial posts have made this "Buried Alive" more and more popular. Everyone is admiring the conception and uniqueness of this film. It has to be said that it is a historic change with one actor supporting a film!
At least, there has never been such a movie in the history of movies!
In contrast, the evaluation of "The Capital" is not so optimistic.
Of course, the post bar is not deserted, and it is also very lively, but basically it’s all gossip, the actors have no acting skills, the plot can’t be understood, the details are shit, the special effects are good but the plot is really weak, the director Shen Lianjie spent so long filming what the hell...
The comparison of word-of-mouth, the popularity of the Internet and the relationship between attendance, after all, several theaters began to change the number of films scheduled.
Part of the film schedule of "The Capital" was replaced with "Buried Alive" and some horror films in the midnight file were also replaced with "Buried Alive".
Well, in a sense, "Buried Alive" is also a type of thriller and suspense film after all, isn't it?
why is it like this?
After all, theaters also want to make money, and whichever movie can sell tickets, they will line up more movies. It is impossible to line up bad movies all day long!
If you don't make money, why open a theater!
In such a big environment, the early morning of September 6th ushered in.
"It exploded, it exploded, we exploded, A Yuan, shit, don't read any "recipes", shit, go drink with me!"
"You blow up every day, what's going on today!"
"Our single-day box office has already broken 10 million!"
"Ten million?"
"Of course, this is not the happiest thing. Do you know what the happiest thing is?"
"what?"
"The happiest thing is that Shen Lianjie's "The Capital" has a box office of only 3 million today, which is a record low! We are about to explode his ass!"
"three million?"
"Yeah, three million! Let's go, Ah Yuan, go drink, I'll treat you..."
"Okay, okay." After hearing the words of Fatty Wei's treat, Lu Yuan, who was originally lazy, suddenly became energetic.
………………………………………
"are you happy?"
"..."
"Xiao Zhong, aren't you happy?"
"Happy, very happy!"
"It's good to be happy, you can see our strength."
"I see!"
"The day after tomorrow, no, I will prepare your movie tomorrow, and I will ask someone to file it and start shooting."
"Ah, so fast?"
"It has to be fast, that's what future great directors should do!"
After drinking, eating barbecue, and paying the money, Fatty Wei took the money clock and hummed a little song and walked happily into the distance along the way.
There was some satisfaction in his eyes.
Young people are always young and frivolous, aren't they?
Although he may not be young now, he must be frivolous!
Proud of life!
"Are you at the pinnacle of your life?" Lu Yuan seemed quite calm. After all, the money has not yet come to him, and the money is just a number to him for the time being. Seeing Fatty Wei so excited, Lu Yuan narrowed his eyes. Eye.
"Yes! From now on, I will be different from the past! No one will look down on me in the future!" Fatty Wei shook his throat.
"Is that a ritual to bid farewell to the past?" Lu Yuan looked at Fatty Wei and suddenly showed a wicked smile.
"What ceremony?"
"Call Lianjie Shen... Pretend to be a full set!"
"Yes, yes, yes! I suddenly thought of...Xiao Zhong, let me use my phone..."
"Huh? Why use my phone?"
"I'm afraid that Shen Lianjie won't answer my call..."
……………………………………………
Some people are very happy, some people are very sad.
Under the dim light, Shen Lianjie looked down at the data report and the dwindling film schedule and attendance rate.
Three million box office.
Is this really my movie?
My fucking total investment is 30 million!
What the hell haven't paid back!
At this moment, he no longer knew what to say about Southeast.
The atmosphere is very dignified.
Also very depressing.
At this time, the phone rang.
"Beep beep."
"Hey!"
"Hello, is this Director Shen?"
"I am, you are..."
"Director Shen, how are you doing recently? Oh, how is your heart? Hehe... I have heart medicine here, do you want to send it to you?"
"roll!"
"Snapped!"
When the original voice changed to Fatty Wei's, Shen Lianjie's eyes were red, he grabbed the phone fiercely and threw it out of the window.
He seemed to see Fatty Wei's triumphant expression...
Hateful, hateful, and full of obscene smiles that successfully slapped the face.
Clap clap clap clap!
…………………………………
"A Yuan, are you asleep?"
"I fell asleep, but I was woken up by you, why did you call me in the middle of the night!"
"Our box office exploded!"
"I know."
"You expected it to explode?"
"A little bit."
"A Yuan, I have to say, you are really a scary man."
"what do you want to say in the end……"
"Actually, all of this is under your control, right?"
"I can't understand what you're saying..."
"Jajin is going to renew his contract with me! A ten-year S-level contract, and promises a top IP movie or TV series every year, as well as various advertisements..."
"That's a good thing! Why, thank you for wanting to treat me to a big meal? There's no need for a big meal. When I look for you in the future, just come over, or if you really can't bear it, I will send all your salary and share to you in the future." Give it to me!" Lu Yuan remembered his innate dream of opening a restaurant, and he suddenly laughed.
Maybe, everything is a dream or not.
"Ayuan, I...I don't want to sign with them anymore."
Lu Yihong on the other end of the phone shook his head, his voice seemed firm.
"You want to change jobs? Have you been in contact with other entertainment companies?" Lu Yuan was a little strange when he heard this.
"No……"
"Then what do you want to do? You quit this business?"
"Ayuan, I'll follow you!"
"???"
"Fatty Wei told me that you are preparing for the next movie "Wanderer"..."
"so what?"
"I'll just sign you for "remote" entertainment, and become the first signed artist of your company!"
"???"
After drinking, feeling happy, and slapping their faces, Fatty Wei and Qian Zhong lay down on the bed and fell into a deep sleep.
After Lu Yihong's phone call, Lu Yuan couldn't fall asleep.
Lu Yuan walked out of the house to look at the moon in the sky, and then looked at the signboard of "Remote" Entertainment, and suddenly felt that the signboard was a bit crooked.
Sign us up for "remote" entertainment?
Did this old Lu take the wrong medicine?
Give up Joaquin and not sign, sign our bag company?
are you crazy!
………………………
"What? Are you crazy!"
"Sister Xia, I'm not crazy, I see hope!"
"???"
