Chapter 363 "War" Premiere (2 in 1)(1/2)

Peng Zhi said, why don’t Yan Zhangrong think about it when he asked himself to avoid it?

In terms of publicity, when "The Fatal Action" was completely crushed by "The Grandmaster of Martial Arts: War", he already had this idea. Later, when he even brought up the idiot Ji Jiaxin and started hype and publicity together, he found some waves.

But, so what if there are waves? Compared with the majestic sea, waves are just embellished with white, and compared with the vast blue sky, it is not worth mentioning.

As the producer of the movie, Yan Zhangrong could not know what happened after seeing this situation. In the early publicity, "The Fatal Action" was seriously underestimated, and judging from the current appearance, it was almost impossible to promote Shanghai to make a comeback.

If there is not enough publicity, can the box office results meet expectations? Yan Zhangrong really doesn’t have this confidence.

However, the large amount of publicity and distribution budgets of "Fatal Action" have been invested. If tens of millions of RMB are spent, the publicity has not met expectations, at least it has so much money.

But if it is not released? If it is postponed, most of the publicity funds during this period will be wasted.

What's more important is...

"Brother, I know what you said, but it will be postponed... Where can I find tens of millions to make a promotional budget for this movie...Brother, why don't the main company support it? After all, they are all works of the company."

Yan Zhangrong said this.

Hearing his words, Peng Zhi immediately laughed: "Oh, I went to your film before the trial show, and the quality is very good. Sometimes the promotion is not up to expectations, it is not up to date. After all, Weidu Entertainment is in the limelight now, and our movies are of good quality. When it is released, we will definitely win with reputation."

Hearing Peng Zhi's words, Yan Zhangrong's mood also plummeted.

He was also expecting that the head office could provide financial assistance.

When he decided to invest in this movie by himself, many people in the headquarters criticized it. After all, this title of "Huayi Pictures" actually caused the majority of capital Yan Zhangrong brought. The big money of the movie would only be with him, and the income obtained by the headquarters would be minimal.

When you cannot establish a project, you think about making money by yourself. When you encounter difficulties, you will ask the head office for help.

But what can Yan Zhangrong do?

This time he came to Beijing for a meeting, and his main goal was to find some help.

But now, judging from Peng Zhi's attitude, the situation is worrying.

Taking a deep breath, he tried his best to cheer himself up. In any case, he still had to continue trying it. Otherwise, if "The Fatal Rhythm" is a big loss, then his efforts over the years will be back to the pre-liberation.

However, Yan Zhangrong met many people during this period after two or three days of activity in the capital.

He still has connections. After all, he has been an executive at Huayi Pictures for many years. When he encounters his invitation, many people will still be willing to come out to meet him so that he will not be turned away.

But that's all.

Substantive commitment? Nothing.

The only comforting thing is that he met the management of several theaters and got a guarantee that the initial screening of "The Fatal Action" will be no less than 20%.

To be honest, if this promise was put a few days ago, Yan Zhangrong would be even more stupid and disdainful.

In the same period, their "Fatal Action" has a considerable investment scale, a huge star lineup, and a high popularity in publicity. Although 25% of the film schedule is not low, it is not too much to get so much. It is the only way to do it, so why do he need to come forward and discuss it in person?

But now, it has been a reward to get such a guarantee.

At present, the title of "Master of Martial Arts: War" is too popular. The conservative volume of screening will not be less than 30%, and it may even reach more than 35. Including the volume of screenings obtained by some other movies, it is really an unknown whether it can finally be given 25% of "The Deadly Action" to be worth 25%.

In fact, at the previous table, a representative of the theater chain who had drunk too much revealed that if Yan Zhangrong had not come here in person, said some good things, and brought out some real benefits, I am afraid that the screening rate of "The Fatal Action" would not only not reach 25%, but may even fall below 20%.

Yan Zhangrong also asked curiously at that time, saying that they had given "War" how much they gave them, and they replied:

“Thirty-eight.”

Yan Zhangrong took a deep breath.

But no matter whether you are unwilling to accept it or envious, you have to press it back into your stomach.

...

No matter how many troubles there are, "Master of Martial Arts: War" is finally time to go to the theater and meet the audience.

On the evening of June 28th, at twelve o'clock in the morning, the midnight premiere of "Master of Martial Arts: War" was officially opened.

At this time, it was the third day of the finale of the TV series, and the popularity of this movie was at its highest.

In the cinema, Liang Shuyue was waiting in line to enter the venue, and the fatigue could not be erased on her face.

A long time ago, in a "dimensional entertainment enthusiast group" she participated in on the Internet, many people were connecting and making an appointment to watch the premiere of "Master of Martial Arts: War".

She wanted to participate at that time, so she signed up.

However, many of her colleagues later made an appointment to watch the movie together, and many people called her.

It is hard to refuse the kindness. On one hand, she is a colleague on the Internet and on the other hand, she is a colleague in reality. After making choices, she still chose her colleagues.

If she is younger, she may choose to watch it with her fellow friends on the Internet. But after all, she has passed the second phase, so interpersonal relationships are more important in reality.

Six or seven colleagues with good relationships bought tickets together and prepared to watch tonight's premiere.

But what made her angry was that just a few hours ago, tonight, the initiator of them said that his wife would not let her go out at night, and that she had to let him accompany his wife to watch the movie.

That's fine, after all, who doesn't have a family situation?

But this is understandable, but he can't understand a stupid thing he did - the movie tickets for the premiere of "Master of Martial Arts: War" are not easy to buy. They booked the movie tickets on the Internet in advance. The friends who made an appointment all bought the tickets from this person, and everyone will give him money and it will be done.

But this guy couldn't come and wanted to refund the tickets, but he didn't know how to operate it. He refunded all the six or seven tickets in the entire order in one breath!

Caught off guard, the show started tonight, where can I buy tickets on the spot?

Liang Shuyue really spit out an old mouthful of blood, and she had the heart to kill that unreliable colleague.

The other colleagues had no tickets and couldn't come anymore, so they decided not to come and planned to wait for the next day or the third day to buy tickets, which would save them from running out in the middle of the night.

But how could Liang Shuyue stand this?

She is a loyal fan of the series "Master of Martial Arts". She watched it when the TV series was first launched. Moreover, she is also a loyal fan of Weidu Entertainment. When she first graduated from high school, Weidu Entertainment released her first work, which is the second season of the animation version of "The Master of All Time". It can be said that Weidu Entertainment's works accompany her youth.

She really wants to watch this movie!

Since this group of colleagues is unreliable, she can only think of some other solutions.

It happened to be raining at night, but even in the rain, she rushed to the cinema and wanted to buy tickets on site.

There are many screenings for "Master of Martial Arts: War" and many of the movies in this cinema will show the movie. However, the popularity of the movie cannot be underestimated. The tickets for the premiere are basically sold out, and occasionally one or two are left, and the position is extremely poor. It is not enough to forget the first row and the second row, but it is still at the edge.

But what can I do?

She bought a ticket like this first. Even if the location is not good and the experience of watching movies is poor, she has to make sure that there is a ticket to discuss these things first.

Anyway, she had already made up her mind that she would definitely buy this movie twice or even thirdly, and then buy a ticket in advance and then buy a good location.

However, despite this, she still doesn't want her experience of watching the premiere so badly.

She was waiting at the front desk of the cinema, waiting for them to refresh and get the tickets.

What if a fool appears like her colleague and refunds the ticket? Wouldn't he be able to get a bargain?

However, she looked around and saw that there were many people around the front desk. It goes without saying what kind of movie it was for when she came here in the middle of the night.

The competition is a bit fierce.

She began to think of other ideas.

Taking out her cell phone, she opened the group of his "dimensional entertainment enthusiasts" before, started sending positioning, and then sending for help:

"Help! Please help me! Please help me! Please give me a good ticket to "War Fire"!"

She is an active member in the group. She usually chats and speaks a lot. There are many people in the group, and they are old acquaintances.

So, someone quickly replied to her:

"Didn't you go and see it with your colleague? Didn't you buy a ticket?"

"If you don't follow our group, that's the end!"

"A kind-hearted person has been hurt by you and will not be saved."

Seeing these replies, she complained about the bitterness, said the end of the matter, and then sent a 'poor' expression: "Good guys, good, anyone suddenly has something to do, contact me as soon as possible, sincerely ask for the vote! Please ask for the double price!"

She joked in the group for a while, but in fact, she didn't have much hope for getting a good ticket.

People in this group will buy tickets for the premiere, and they are all fans of Weidu Entertainment. Everyone has been looking forward to the release of "War Fire" for a long time, and it is unlikely that someone will give up the ticket.

Chatting nonsense here is mainly to pass the boring time waiting for the movie to start.

But God pays off. Suddenly, her cell phone vibrates, and someone is chatting about her privately.

"Sister Yue, do you still want a ticket?"

I saw the ID, it was very strange. I should be from the group, but I might be a diving party and I don’t like to talk much.

But now she still cares about who is who? The one who has votes is Dad!

"I want it! Do you want it?"

"Well, I have one. My mother didn't let me come out to see it. She was going to sneak out of the house to see it at night, but if you want it, I can give it to you."

"OK!"

"That double price..."

It seems that it is quite tempting for students to make a few dozen movie tickets by transferring a movie ticket. What's more, if you don't watch the premiere, you can buy tickets for other events at any time when you look back.

However, for Liang Shuyue, she is already working, it is still stress-free to spend an extra movie ticket.

She didn't intend to break her promise and transferred the money in a grand manner.
To be continued...
