The entertainment industry shouldn't be like this

Chapter 63 We were stolen from the tower

Friday, July 5th.

"The momentum is so strong! The box office has exceeded 20 million for two consecutive working days." Producer Dai Shukun said while looking at the latest box office rankings.

"It's normal, worthy of the quality of the film." Luo Jianzhou said calmly.

What they were talking about was, of course, "The Gunslinger," which topped the box office charts.

The producer looked at Luo Jianzhou and smiled: "Now your evaluation of Wang Wei seems to have changed a lot?"

"Humph." Luo Jianzhou curled his lips but did not refute.

Is not this nonsensical?

Everyone has watched "The Gunslinger", are you not worried about it?

As the old man Charlotte said - the first work is about talent, the second work is about potential and height.

We didn't see much talent in Luo Jianzhou, Wang Wei's first film, but we can really see his potential in "Genius Gunslinger".

Luo Jianzhou's greatest advantage is that he recognizes capable people.

"What happened again?" There were too many lice and they were not itchy. Wang Wei felt that there was no bad news that could break his guard, so he calmly took a sip of tea.

Lao Xu shared his experience: "The money that should be spent must be spent at this time. Let's take film critics as an example. If we don't pay, they will be bribed by those who are willing to pay..."

Also - "The heroine induced vomiting in the examination room. Is the invigilator blind? Just let a candidate put a pen into his mouth and harm himself?"

Wang Wei sighed: "That's too much. I'm afraid my reputation as a troll will never be erased."

Luo Jianzhou laughed: "Are you still worried that the popularity of "Genius Gunslinger" will continue until August?"

"Also, we are quite polite. Other studios just go ahead and discredit it."

If it were just the dozen or so media outlets that Wang Weijian was using, there would be no need to panic at all, and they could even be regarded as a boost to the hype.

…

Facts have proved that no movie is perfect. As long as you want to find faults, you can't find any loopholes?

He looked up and saw the expressionless Assistant Ding knocking on the door and coming in, holding a newspaper in his hand.

Everyone can see the momentum of "The Gunslinger" being a hit.

"Also, if the movie becomes a super hit, be prepared to be surrounded by everyone, including competitors who won't be released until next month."

After taking over Dunhuang, Lao Wang only tried to step into the trap and did not find opportunities to participate in the summer movie; Lao Zhou, let alone Lao Zhou, did not care about the promotion and distribution of the movie at all.

The producer nodded and said the same: "This is the summer schedule!"

"Who can say for sure? Anyway, be prepared." The producer shrugged.

Now everyone realized the seriousness of the problem.

In other words, the competition faced by "Genius Gunner" has just begun.

"And it will muddy the waters. In the summer vacation, almost everyone is a competitor to each other, and it is impossible to unite as one."

As for Wang Wei, well...

There is no more suitable candidate than this guy.

Xu Daoxing said directly: "To fight back, we can only fight back hard."

After listening to the report, Xu Daoxing slapped his head in frustration and reflected: "I was careless and didn't warn the crew in advance."

Luo Jianzhou's tone remained unchanged: "This is the summer schedule!"

As far as the producers know, today and next week, Lien Asia Entertainment and Pearl Pictures, which have major productions to be released respectively, have invested resources in attacking "The Genius".

It's hard to blame him.

"Secondly, everyone will invest more resources in the summer season. For example, they are especially willing to spend money to buy film critics."

Moreover, even this small-budget movie, which is well-made now, is still far from being able to hit the summer schedule.

In the two days before and after, it seemed as if the media were not commenting on the same movie.

While Wang Wei mourned for his reputation, he picked up a thermos cup... mixed it with wolfberry and took a sip of health tea.

Luo Jianzhou asked calmly: "I heard that all the media under the company have been notified to suppress the reputation influence of "Genius Gunslinger"?"

Some people attacked the ending of the movie - "The forced ending of Wei Guangzheng lowered the expectations of the entire movie..."

Assistant Ding handed him the newspaper directly.

Wang Chuanqi, who had laughed so hard the day before that his face was on fire, immediately summoned everyone to discuss countermeasures.

Others wanted to laugh but didn't dare, which temporarily relaxed the tense atmosphere.

Lao Xu couldn't help but complain: If it hadn't been for liver editing a month before the release, which almost killed them all, and asked him to rest until the official release to recover, he wouldn't have no sense of crisis at all.

Like all movies that may ignite the summer movie season, "The Gunslinger" will inevitably become a public enemy of movies currently in theaters or about to be released after its first-day box office results are released.

But if they are collectively surrounded and suppressed by the media forces behind the Big Five...

"Even if it is a weak scolding, it is better than being scolded one-sidedly."

At the same time, the praise for "The Gunslinger" in the media, especially from film critics, has inexplicably decreased significantly.

The most common ones are those that attack movie bugs - "The cheating method of playing the piano is neither realistic nor clever, it is ridiculous and ridiculous."

By this time, even the most obtuse people on the crew knew that their film was being targeted.

"The summer season is the most competitive season, and it is only natural to discredit each other."

The producer replied equally calmly: "Yes. After all, a film released by our company will be released next week, and August is the company's main summer schedule this year."

Amid the emotion between the two of them, "The Genius" continued to sell well, but there was suddenly more noise in the media.

Lao Wang, who knew how to save things when he could, blushed and nodded as if he had been taught something.

Lao Wang took a breath and asked humbly: "What suggestions do you have, Lao Xu?"

Of course, it's just recognition. If he really wants to be on an equal footing with him, Wang Wei has to make at least a few blockbusters.

Lao Xu secretly complained about Wang Wei before continuing: "The cruel thing about the summer season is that - first of all, the competitors react very quickly; I suspect that before the box office of "Genius Gunman" has been released on the first day, there will be people targeting us.

The plan is already in place.”

There is an attack on the heroine's character - "Whether intentionally or not, she took advantage of the male protagonist's dream of wanting his mother to live a good life, roped him into her gang, and gave him false hope. And then? Tell him that I'm sorry not to accompany you.

I played it because I want to be a good person... This is the most disgusting heroine I have ever seen."

"Well-known film critics will not slander a good film regardless of its reputation just because they are paid, but they can suppress the film's publicity in disguise by not giving it good reviews."

“This is the summer season!”

As for scolding...

Oh, he almost forgot that the dozen or so media outlets that Wang Wei signed up for in the afternoon were the natural blackmailers of "Genius Gunslinger".

Everyone focused on Wang Wei.

Dunhuang has not participated in the summer game for several years, and Lao Xu's memories of past experiences have been sealed, and they were not awakened until unexpected circumstances occurred.

In fact, he was also wrong.

Wang Wei looked at the title and said, "Pfft!"

Take a sip of tea and spit it out directly.

Oh, we had so many plans, but someone actually stole the tower?!
