Chapter 89
New Year, New Year...Novel
The whole world seems to be immersed in a joyful atmosphere. Annual vacations, reunion dinners, bonuses, photos of yourself and your friends and family on social media, or summarizing what you have experienced this year.
On New Year's Eve, the box office of "Fatal Pursuit" exceeded 2 billion. This family movie with a relaxed style and rigorous plot was well received by domestic audiences. As a result of the double harvest of word-of-mouth and popularity, discussions related to it can be seen everywhere.
On the first day of the new year, the crew of "Fatal Pursuit" posted a congratulatory Weibo to celebrate the box office exceeding 2 billion. Audiences who had watched the movie were very happy to hear about it and left comments below. In the blink of an eye, the number exceeded five digits——
[233333 Congratulations to the film crew for their counterattack. When it was first released, it only had a box office of 60 million. This is probably the most powerful dark horse in the Lunar New Year season, right? 】
[Raise your hand, here is an Amway that I gave to everyone around me, and finally convinced all colleagues in the department to choose "Fatal Pursuit" for the annual meeting and movie party]
[The same tap water, the same company film party, "Fatal Pursuit" was almost unanimously praised when it came out of the cinema. However, the director of the department next door bought "Urban Romance"... It made them feel sorry for them]
[233333 The director who bought "Urban Romance" must have received the money. It is said that the box office of this movie has been getting lower and lower for several days and it is still very strong to keep it on the schedule! 】
[How much is the box office now? Has it exceeded 500 million?]
[It’s broken, but wasn’t it revealed that there was box office fraud some time ago? In order to boost the box office, every midnight show was sold out, tsk tsk tsk... I must have lost all my money.]
[Who would have thought? Before it was released, the advertising was overwhelming, and Mingcheng Film and Television’s awesome distribution methods couldn’t save this bad movie... Anyway, the quality of this movie from the actors to the director was very impressive to me and those around me.
My friend’s eyes were completely shattered. However, Mingcheng is also strange. In the later period, it even stopped receiving good reviews. Don’t you think it’s embarrassing to save face?]
[Come on, you still get good reviews, Mingcheng has too much to take care of himself now, how can he be willing to spend money on a bad movie to do this...]
Zou Min closed the page and took a look at the call history with some confusion. There were more than ten calls to Song Tian but were not answered, and five or six calls to potential partners were ignored.
The call ended in just a few minutes. The disastrous failure of "City" cast an inextricable haze over her reputation as a "new director". The film's loss figure also became a source of criticism for major investment producers.
To show off her reputation. To say that she has a false reputation, that she is not worthy of her reputation, and that it brings down the film, as if the failure of the film was her fault from the beginning to the end.
The criticisms were like heavy weights that weighed heavily on her heart, making Zou Min breathless. She almost lost confidence and regretted her previous compromise. This was not her first cooperation with Mingcheng.
She has long been aware of the company's working style. To be honest, when she got to know the crew, she roughly predicted that the film would not be very good. It was just Mingcheng's generous remuneration and its agreement to give anyone who had no foundation in the film industry
The conditions for arranging important roles in one's life are really too attractive.
It doesn't matter, it's just one time anyway, if it's not good, it won't be good. After all, with such a big investment, such a big lineup, I... I still have so many die-hard fans.
She comforted herself like this at that time, and she happily took over this burden. Seeing that her lover, who had never been able to find suitable resources, was finally able to express his ambitions.
Ren Shengsheng's gentle smile went to her head.
There are even a series of backgrounds of this crew from the beginning compiled by loyal fans of "Fatal Pursuit" on the Internet. The word "poor" in this small-production film is very clear. Except for the two leading actors, the whole drama has It is almost impossible to find stars who really need to be paid to hire, and there is no money for publicity and hype. Therefore, even before its release, its popularity was overshadowed by the "well-financed" "City".
But in the photos compiled by Reuters showing the disgraced cast members, Zou Min could easily see how expensive the props, costumes and the filming lineup were.
She felt at a loss because director Shang Shu, who had been working overseas for more than ten years and struggled to find a way to pursue a career in film, quickly became a new star in the industry because his film was blocked. Hong Bozhan, who entered the film industry, has also spread rumors that many big-name directors are interested in him. Before his debut, his homepage was always about singing. Now, with his youthful age, he has He has been dubbed a "powerful group" by the film, television and music circles.
