Chapter 1128 Plan Change(2/2)
Guaranteeing a minimum of one-third of the audience base is already a very high ratio.
But this is not enough for Gerry!
In the past, there were movies like this that had good-looking investigative reports but failed at the box office.
More importantly, the current negative image of "Liu Changqing" has been exaggerated by the media and some celebrities, as if it would be a crime for American audiences to watch this movie.
Gerry put down the report gently and walked back and forth, thinking about Barber's plan, but he still didn't dare to make up his mind.
To be honest, if it weren't for Barber's brilliant qualifications in the past and Yang Ming's concern, he would have wanted to reject Barber's plan immediately. The risk would have been too great.
If possible, he still wants to arrange a trial screening of "Liu Changqing". If the box office results are acceptable, he will further expand the number of theater screenings depending on the situation.
This is very safe and can control risks to a minimum.
When Barber saw Gerry, he still refused to make up his mind, knowing that if he didn't say something serious, he would probably still be hesitant.
So, he stared into Gerry's eyes and said slowly: "No one will ever appreciate expected success; if it is incredible success, this is the real success, the success that makes you famous!"
As a professional manager, when Gerry heard this, he immediately understood what Barber meant.
If it is a sure success, for a company manager, it can only be regarded as basically qualified, not outstanding.
Might be considered conservative.
But if he defies all opinions and achieves unexpected success, then his decision will be judged as wise and decisive by everyone.
Adding a dazzling halo to his qualifications.
"And the opportunity this time is very big. In the history of Hollywood, there has never been a movie as full of contradictions as "Liu Changqing". This will be a storm!" Barber continued.
After saying this, without waiting for Gerry to speak, he took out a plan, handed it to Gerry, and said, "This is the new publicity plan I arranged for people to make. Take a look."
Now it is completely impossible for the media to do positive publicity for "Liu Changqing" on a large scale. So Barber thought about it and did the opposite, and continued to expand the contradiction and make the storm more fierce!
When all the media are madly criticizing a movie, just for an inexplicable reason, it will inevitably make movie fans more curious about the movie.
Gerry carefully read the publicity plan handed over by Barbour, with surprise flashing in his eyes. After a while, he slowly put down the document and breathed a sigh of relief: "Mr. Barbour, your words are always so touching.
As for people's hearts, I think there is no one in this world that you can't talk to!"
When he said this, the meaning was clear.
Barber burst out laughing.
The two of them were already old acquaintances before Yang Ming showed up. They were a film company and a theater company, and they had too many opportunities to deal with each other.
Although Gerry has now agreed to Barber's plan, he still reminds him: "You are walking a tightrope!"
Although "Liu Changqing" has aroused strong curiosity among movie fans, its negative image has long been deeply ingrained due to media publicity.
As Gerry said, Barber's plan was a tightrope walk.
