Royal Beast: A Million Evolutions of Magic Pets

Although Zhang Enshang and others thought Wang Chong was crazy, they still couldn't help but sigh, "It's true, you can do whatever you want if you have money!"

Yan Rui said: "If we let them stand up, then the money they invested will eventually be able to earn back."

"Their purpose of making this movie is to break out of our blockade. If they really win a good battle with this movie, they can gain a foothold in the industry."

"In this case, more people will definitely rush to cooperate with them, and the money invested will naturally be earned back."

"More importantly, it's also a big blow to our prestige."

After hearing what Yan Rui said, Zhang Enshang asked, "Then what should we do? Continue to keep up? Also negotiate guarantees with the theaters? Squeeze them to death?"

Yan Rui shook his head, "We are not Wang Chong. They don't have to make money, and they can do whatever they want if they have money. But we have to make money. We can't spend hundreds of millions of profits to compete with them. It's not worth it."

He said slowly, "We can give them a round of praise!"

"Tomorrow, we will arrange for people to call Manling Film and Television Media Co., Ltd. about the 1 billion box office, and vigorously publicize it. They also said that this is the news from the theaters, and Manling Film and Television Media Co., Ltd. directly negotiated with them about the 1 billion box office.

Guaranteed."

"Normally speaking, their first movie's box office of 400 to 500 million yuan is already an outstanding result."

"But we set a goal for them, 1 billion. When everyone accepts it, if they only have 200 million or 300 million, they will still be embarrassed in the circle. They will be considered to have inflated self-confidence."

After thinking about it, Zhang En said, "Manling Film and Television Media Co., Ltd. will never be able to achieve the high box office results we have set. They and the theater chain will definitely come out to refute the rumors."

Yan Rui said: "It doesn't matter if you refute the rumors. After refuting the rumors, it will be revealed that they have a guarantee of 800 million. It will also have a negative impact on them. When the time comes, we will hype it up and hit them again."

"So, if they were wiser, they would probably not refute the rumors and deal with it coldly."

With the support of Zhang Film and Television Group, within a few days, almost everyone in the entertainment and film circles knew that Manling Film and Television Media Co., Ltd.'s first film "Breathing Pain" was extremely well shot.

In order to arrange the film, the theater chain was directly given a box office guarantee of up to 1 billion yuan!

After learning the news, everyone who had been paying attention to Manling Film and Television Media Co., Ltd. was shocked.

This is almost a box office height that can only be achieved by a large production and a large lineup. With a new small company, a second-rate celebrity, and a low-cost female love-themed movie, it dares to claim a box office of 1 billion. It is crazy!

?

Many people are discussing this particularly outrageous thing, "Have you heard? The film produced by the company founded by Yu Manling has been completed. It will be released next month."

"I heard it, I heard it. It is said that they are extremely confident and think the box office can reach 1 billion."

"Hahahaha, do you think Yu Manling has lost her mind and gone crazy? She is a former popular star who can barely handle her figure and appearance, but she dares to claim this amount of box office?"

"She must have found a rich person to support her, so she expanded!"

"Yes, yes, that must be the case!"

The entertainment industry is very small, and these rumors quickly reached the ears of Yan Zisheng, Shen Zhiyin, Su Tong and Yu Manling.

The first three people were okay, after all, they were all people who had seen strong winds and waves, but Yu Manling was a little uneasy.

She called Su Tong to her villa again, then held up the group chat on her phone and said anxiously, "Sister! What should I do? You see, rumors about us are spreading everywhere!"

Su Tong, who had some knowledge of the matter, coughed and said, "Actually, although they exaggerated a bit, they were right. We did give the theaters a guarantee."

When Yu Manling heard this, her eyes widened in surprise, "Really? How much?"

Su Tong whispered, "I heard it's 800 million."

"800 million?!" Yu Manling's voice trembled.

She looked at Su Tong and swallowed, "Who gave me the guarantee?"

Su Tong said helplessly, "What do you think?"

Yu Manling had mixed feelings in her heart. Should she say that Wang Chong was too stupid, or should she say that he really trusted her too much.

At first, she just casually boasted about the box office of 10, just to express her confidence, but she didn't expect that he would actually take it seriously.

For a moment, Yu Manling felt a little touched and a little strange.

At the same time, Wang Chong was also on the phone with Yan Zisheng, "One billion? Do you think the other party is flattering us?"

Wang Chong frowned, but didn't say much. Just like Yan Zisheng said, he had done everything he could, even if it was to praise him, he could only do it.

At most, we should put more effort into publicity.

...

"Breathing Pain" is also being promoted in full swing.

When Yu Manling terminated her contract with her original agency, she got her own bib account back and began to actively promote her new drama.

However, the effect is not very obvious.

Fans generally have a certain negative attitude towards Yu Manling's appearance in the new drama: because it is too far from the queen's temperament.

In the past, Yu Manling's character design was that of a cold and aloof queen.

The look of the movie was to be more similar to ordinary girls. Yu Manling's makeup was deliberately made ordinary, which was not consistent with her usual cool, glamorous and majestic look.

This also further made people in the industry realize the joke. They felt that Yu Manling's movie would not only not have a high box office, but it might even cause her to lose her fan base.

You know, the most important thing for Yu Manling now is the traffic and fans she gained when she was famous before.

If fans lose their following because of the drastic change in the characters of this drama, then Yu Manling will really go back to before liberation overnight.

The feedback and surveys given by theaters are also a bit unsatisfactory. Perhaps because Yu Manling's previous image does not match the movie, most viewers have a wait-and-see attitude towards this movie.

I think this movie is another farce about popular celebrities making money.

In comparison, "Avengers 5" is much more popular.

Although there is a general environment of boycotting foreign movies and TV series, foreign movies are not popular. But based on the foundation of the previous movies, the base of old movie fans is still quite large.

Coupled with the appeal of two international movie kings and a movie queen, "Avengers 5" has become one of the most popular movies in November even before it is released.

Even though they will be criticized by those keyboard warriors, many old movie fans left messages online saying that they want to watch this movie.

Such a huge difference in the audience's expectations made Yu Manling unable to sit still. If Wang Chong hadn't tried so hard to comfort her, she would probably have caused a lot of trouble.

Seeing that Yu Manling was in a bad mood, Wang Chong couldn't think of any other solution, so he simply did the only thing he was good at, spending money on advertising!

Anyway, he doesn’t need to make money from this movie, so he can just keep advertising and make the movie famous.

As a result, the wonderful trailers at the beginning of the movie began to be pushed all over the Internet.

Even, with the full cooperation of Yan Zisheng and Shen Zhiyin, these trailers were distributed in different versions according to major cities.

Yan Zisheng is also actively cooperating with major platforms.

Bring up some topics related to love. Once you do these activities, if nothing else, the topic of the movie will immediately rise.

Even though everyone is still excited about Yu Manling's acting skills and movies starring popular celebrities, at least they have a lot of expectations for this movie.

Time passes day by day, and in a blink of an eye, March 14th is arrived, White Valentine's Day in the West, the day reflected in the movie.

At 9 o'clock in the morning, Yu Manling found Wang Chong and stayed by his side.

Wang Chong knew that she was unsure and was afraid that the movie would suffer a disastrous failure, so he wanted to find someone to support him.

So even though Wang Chong was busy training and nurturing his demon pets, he didn't chase anyone away and let her wander around.

Yu Manling felt very uneasy, and she began to wander around Wang Chong.

He walked for a while, sat for a while, and then came to Wang Chong to see Wang Chong.

Wang Chong was a little annoyed by her, raised his head and said, "What on earth are you doing?"

Yu Manling showed a pitiful expression and said aggrievedly, "People are not stable because they are afraid that the box office will not be good."

Wang Chong couldn't laugh or cry and said: "An Xin Xin Xin, it's just one movie. If it really doesn't do well at the box office, I'll pay you to make another one."

Yu Manling refused, "No! This is my first starring movie, and I must get good results!"

After hearing what Yu Manling said and seeing Yu Manling's haggard face, Wang Chong decided not to be busy with anything else today and concentrate on accompanying the restless Yu Manling.

Opening the real-time movie box office rankings, Wang Chong and Yu Manling sat on the sofa and began to watch the box office.

There are three films released today. In addition to "Breathing Pain" and "Avengers 5", there is also a niche film.

But in just one morning, this niche film was completely eliminated by the top two.

As of 11 a.m., the box office of "Avengers 5" was 8 million, and the box office of "Breathing Pain" was more than 3 million, which was less than half of the other party's.

Yu Manling's expression was a bit gloomy, her mood became even worse, and she was not even in the mood to eat.

Subsequently, Yu Manling will refresh the data every hour.

13 o'clock, "Avengers 5" 13 million, "Breathing Pain" 8 million;

15 o'clock, "Avengers 5" 16 million, "Breathing Pain" 11 million;

17 o'clock, "Avengers 5" 19 million, "Breathing Pain" 12 million;

Watching it during the day, it seems that "Breathing Pain" will never catch up with "Avengers 5", and the gap is getting wider and wider. Yu Manling is a little desperate.

Wang Chong didn't know how to comfort her. Although he felt that the temporary defeat was nothing, Yu Manling couldn't listen to her.

It wasn't until night fell that the turning point finally occurred.

Haicheng City, a company.

After a hard day's work, a professional white-collar woman stretched her body, picked up her mobile phone, and made an appointment with her girlfriends for tonight's activities.

"Today is White Day. Anyway, we don't have boyfriends. How about we go see a movie together?"

In the group of best friends, a certain best friend suddenly jumped out: "I have a boyfriend!"

XXX was removed from the chat group by the group owner.

"Okay, this guy has been kicked out of the group, let's continue."

"What movie?"

"Isn't the movie Breathing Pains being promoted all over the place recently? Of course you should watch a love movie on Valentine's Day, as it suits the occasion."

"I agree! It just so happens that I have nothing to do tonight."

"Okay, okay! I'll go too."

"+1. I also want to learn two moves."

"Okay, unanimously approved, we can bring that guy into the group."

XXX was invited to the group.

A certain best friend was just about to get angry when she was besieged by a group of best friends. Outnumbered and outnumbered, she could only retreat and beg for mercy, abandon her boyfriend, and go to the movies with her best friends.

""Breathing Pain"? I seem to have seen a lot of advertisements for it recently. Okay, I'll check it out too."

"Okay! Passed unanimously, then let's go together!"

It has to be said that the tens of millions spent on publicity by Wang Chong were effective, and the release date of the movie chosen by Yan Zisheng was also very suitable.

In the evening, similar situations appeared together. Many people who were influenced by promotional videos, trailers, friends around them, as well as various forums and websites came to watch "Breathing Pain" in groups.

"Breathing Pain", which had a low attendance rate during the day, immediately experienced explosive growth at the box office. The box office skyrocketed like a rocket.

And at 10 o'clock in the evening, it successfully overtook "Avengers 5" and received a box office of 46 million, while the box office of "Avengers 5" was 44 million.

At the end of the day, the first-day box office of "Breathing Pain" was finally fixed at 67 million. However, the box office of "Avengers 5" was only 51 million.

After leading for a whole day, the box office of "Avengers 5" was magically counterattacked by "Breathing Pain"!

At 12 o'clock that night, after the first day's box office was released, the entire entertainment and film and television circles were a little dumbfounded.

What kind of movie is "Avengers 5"?

A big-budget movie starring two international movie kings and a movie queen! And it has a deep fan base for the series of movies!

Whether it is a production company or a promotion and distribution company, they are all leading companies in the industry. Such a blockbuster movie actually lost to a little-known movie on the first day.

The one that trampled on the established big productions was just an urban love movie, starring Yu Manling, who was just a second-tier actress, and the company was a new film and television company that had just been established.

The moment they learned the news, people in the entertainment and film and television circles couldn't believe it.

Many people are even comforting themselves that maybe something is wrong on this day. After all, movies by popular stars always have box office explosions in the early stage, and then start to plummet.

Maybe the next day, the box office of "Breathing Pain" will start to plummet like those movies. There are not just one or two people who have this idea.

Everyone is paying attention to the box office performance the next day.

As a result, when the daily box office was released the next day, everyone was shocked!

The gap in box office has actually widened!

Originally, most people thought that "Avengers 5" would catch up with the box office of "Breathing Pain", but not only did it fail to catch up, but it also opened a wider gap!

At the end of the second day, "Avengers 5" had a box office of 63 million yuan that day, which was more than 10 million yuan higher than yesterday. The results were very good.

But the box office of "Breathing Pain" on this day directly reached a terrifying 85 million!

At this moment, everyone who was paying attention to the two movies was a little speechless. Could "Avengers 5" really be unable to beat "Breathing Pain"?

Two international movie kings and one movie queen couldn't beat Yu Manling, a purely second-rate star?

Two established film and television companies can't beat the emerging company Manling Film and Television Media Co., Ltd.?
