Director Sun Zhi is naturally very concerned about the box office of his new film.

He is a director. Although due to his wonderful performance in the past few years, he is already ranked among China's first-line action directors. It seems that he no longer cares too much about the box office performance of a movie. But this time, the investment in "Beasts" is really real.

It was too big. Sun Zhi had invested too much energy and time, and his ambitions were too staggering.

He wants to use this movie to become the top director in China!

Not a top director in the field of action films, but a real top director! What Sun Zhi wants to do is to hope that the audience will remove the word "action" after seeing his name!

Although "Beast" is also an action movie, Sun Zhi knows very well that when your fame and strength reach a certain level, the audience will think of the word "great director" when they think of you, without adding any other words.

determiner.

The new film "Beast" is Sun Zhi's ambitious work.

So starting a month ago, he and the two Chinese creators had entered into a crazy promotion mode. Especially in the days before and after the premiere, they were divided into three groups, and everyone had to travel to a city almost every day to participate in

More than one event to promote the movie!

Because for the male and female protagonists Wang Chong and Zhao Momo, this movie also entrusts their ambitions.

Like Sun Zhi, they all hope that the movie can be like the original Hurricane and the Bourne series, which will not only reap huge box office at home, but also gain enough attention overseas. If the revenue is amazing enough, everyone will have the confidence to make "The Beast" a success.

》Forged into a series, it would be of great benefit to everyone...

Only after New Year's Eve did the crew return to the capital and end the crazy journey of publicity.

It doesn’t make much sense to run publicity during the Chinese New Year. The main position is still on the Internet. And seeing "The Beast" win the box office championship on the first day of the new year naturally made them ecstatic, and they have always been thinking about it.

Finally, they can release the famous "Han Bo and the Secret Room". The pressure on them is really too great!

Your investment is huge, and the investment in "Korean Wave and the Chamber of Secrets" cannot be overstated. Your three main creators are all top Chinese filmmakers, and there is also a quasi-A-list star in Hollywood, but one old white guy can outdo four people.

The combined fame and influence; not to mention that although Sun Zhi and others firmly believe that the action scenes of "Beasts" are more intense and the investment in special effects is more sufficient, "True Lies" is a mountain that they cannot avoid at all!

Just like many old white fans on the Internet ridiculed, "The Beast" really made reference to that classic.

Sun Zhi and the others were unwilling to admit this, but they did not dare to deny it either.

So when "The Beast" beat "Han Bo and the Chamber of Secrets" to win the first-day box office championship, fans of Lao Bai and some inexplicable people began to attack the movie on the Internet, or said that they squeezed "Han Bo and the Chamber of Secrets"

"When they were arranging the film, or ridiculing them for plagiarizing the Hurricane series, Sun Zhi and the others could only pretend that they hadn't seen anything and didn't know anything about it.

Public counterattack?

Stop being ridiculous!

Although the main investor and distribution company of "The Beast" is Pegasus Film and Television, a large domestic company, but who doesn't know that behind Lao Bai, there are now four major domestic giants?

Can you survive an open counterattack?

So in addition to complaining in private, Sun Zhi and the others can only spend money to hire some trolls to maintain "Beasts" on the Internet. In this way, they must also control their speed and counterattack within a limited time.

At the same time, try not to anger the big boss Lao Bai, just in case he gets angry...

So when the crew gathered urgently on the morning of the second day of the Lunar New Year, Sun Zhi seemed very troubled: "Everyone, tell me, what should we do next?"

"There is no good way, Director Sun."

The actor Wang Chong, who was equally troubled, shook his head and said with a wry smile: "We can only increase our publicity efforts and hire more people to protect "Beasts" on the Internet... Fortunately, our movie has a good reputation. I think

You shouldn’t have to worry too much about the box office.”

Although there are constant voices of plagiarism, it is true that the scenes of "Beasts" are bigger and the special effects are more powerful. For ordinary audiences, this is already attractive enough. Otherwise, the box office trend of "Beasts" will not be

More ferocious than "True Lies"!

Although there is the bonus of the Lunar New Year schedule, the quality of the movie itself is the most important influencing factor.

Just when the two men were looking sad, the heroine Zhao Momo blinked and suddenly asked: "Director Sun, how about we go visit Teacher Lao Bai?"

"Visit him? Why?"

After hearing Zhao Momo's words, Sun Zhi was stunned.

Wang Chong also looked at the heroine in surprise, and said with a smile: "Yes, Momo, that person is now our competitor, what good can you get by visiting him? Can we still get him to come forward and say good things for us?

?Besides...that's Lao Bai, you can visit if you want?"

Who in the entertainment industry doesn’t know that Lao Bai generally doesn’t accept visits from people in the industry and rarely participates in any activities?

In the past, there were still people who were indignant about this, saying that he was too aloof and unsocial, but no one dared to say that now. After all, everyone knows that with Lao Bai's current reputation and outstanding record, I think

I don’t know how many people I want to meet. If I really want to meet everyone...

Haha, I probably don’t do anything else but entertain guests every day.

Of course, the more important thing is status. Lao Bai is now a super boss in the Chinese entertainment industry. Not to mention Sun Zhi and Wang Chong, there are superstars like Liang Ren. If Lao Bai doesn't want to meet him, who can say anything?

"this……"

After hesitating for a moment, Zhao Momo pouted and said: "But I think Teacher Lao Bai is very good! Although he is famous, he seems to have never had any bad news, right? He usually doesn't like to appear in public, probably because he focuses on creation.

, otherwise you can write so many novels, scripts or songs in one year?"

"……Too."

After being stunned for a moment, Wang Chong nodded seriously.

Although many people are dissatisfied with Lao Bai, there is one thing that people in the industry know very well: in this colorful world, Lao Bai is like a breath of fresh air in the entertainment industry, never making hype or gossip.

, that is, let the works speak for themselves in a down-to-earth manner.

If you want to take advantage of this kind of person, you can only do it through his works.

but……

Want to be black and white in your work?

You have to find someone who can surpass him in terms of quality and influence for comparison, right? How many can you find in Hollywood, let alone China?

If there is any dark spot, perhaps it is that after so many years since his debut, Lao Bai has yet to win the annual box office championship. Whether domestic or foreign, Lao Bai's works have never achieved this achievement.

But who would really take this as an argument? How stupid would they be?

After a pause, Zhao Momo continued: "And my friend is very familiar with Teacher Lao Bai. According to him, he is actually very kind. No matter you are a superstar or a newcomer in the industry, there will be no difference because of your status.

Treat... We are not asking for a script or anything, we just want..."

"Wow!"

Just when Zhao Momo wanted to express her thoughts, the producer Meng Siyu, who had been silent next to her, suddenly exclaimed and immediately interrupted her next words.

"Uh, what's wrong?"

Sun Zhi, who was listening intently, glanced at him and asked with some dissatisfaction.

Not noticing the dissatisfaction on Sun Zhi's expression, Meng Siyu stood up suddenly, waved his cell phone and shouted: "Old Sun, look at your phone! Look at Teacher Lao Bai's Weibo!"

"Lao Bai's Weibo? What's wrong?"

Feeling nervous, Sun Zhi quickly took out his cell phone.

Wang Chong and Zhao Momo had the same reaction as him. They all took out their mobile phones. They got together early in the morning to talk about things. Except for the real-time box office, no one was in the mood to watch the news or anything. Naturally, they all

I don't know what happened just now. Even when Lao Bai went to see "The Beast" last night, several people knew nothing about it.

So after seeing the latest Weibo post on prc-Laobai, the three main creators of "Beast" were all stunned.

this……

Blinking his eyes hard, as if he didn't believe what he saw on Weibo, Zhao Momo said blankly: "I also said that we should visit Teacher Lao Bai to solve the problem at hand! But as soon as this Weibo was posted, this
Chapter completed!
