Chapter 165 Hot, financing plan (Part 3, please complete the order)
During breakfast, Sun Xiaoyu answered the phone and said to Zheng Ge: "Mr. Zheng, the box office of "Hotel 17" was released last night. Including the scheduled box office, it reached 70 million."
"Only 70 million!"
Zheng Ge felt dissatisfied, originally thinking of breaking 100 million on the first day.
Sun Xiaoyu was speechless for a while. This is a movie made by pure newcomers! From the director to the actors, they are all newcomers.
Hmm! That’s not absolute. There are two veteran actors joining the cast, but they are both veteran actors who have not appeared on the big screen for a long time.
Zheng Ge noticed her gaze, shook his head and said, "Okay, it's not bad. What's your review?"
Sun Xiaoyu said with a smile: "The movie viewing website has a score of 9.8. The scores on several other movie platforms have also reached a score of 9 or above."
"Not bad." Zheng Ge felt a little relieved. Guanyin.com is similar to Douban in previous lives.
"Mr. Zheng, should we go to the cinema today?"
Sun Xiaoyu was eager to give it a try.
"Let's go some other time. I made an agreement with Xiao Meng yesterday that I will accompany Xiao Meng today."
Zheng Ge smiled and said, "There are still a lot of things to deal with at the Power Company. Mr. Guo is in Shanghai, and there are too many things to do. It won't be possible for a while. You can go and coordinate."
"oh!"
Sun Xiaoyu let out a depressed sound.
…
At 9 o'clock in the morning, Sun Xiaoyu went to the power company, while Zheng Ge and Xi Meng went to the cinema.
Of course, for safety, Ah Zheng still followed him.
"There are quite a lot of people."
Looking at the crowded cinema, Simon focused on a poster at the entrance of the cinema. It was a promotional poster for "Hotel 17".
"October 1st!" Zheng Ge smiled.
"Boss, the tickets for 9:30 are gone. The latest one is for 10:50."
Ah Zheng, who went to buy tickets, came over and said.
"It's 11 o'clock. It's almost 1 noon when it ends. What do you think?"
Zheng Ge asked Xi Meng.
"Okay!" Ximeng smiled. For her, watching movies is the second most important thing.
If you really want to watch a movie, you can just call and rent a movie theater.
"Then let's go over there and have a rest." Zheng Ge took Xi Meng to the booth next to the floor-to-ceiling window, ordered two cups of coffee, and chatted while waiting.
Simon took a sip of coffee and said with a smile, "Looking at the popularity, this movie is really going to be a hit. Brother Zheng, congratulations! You're going to make a lot of money again this time, why don't you give me a red envelope to celebrate?"
"Okay, I can't do without yours."
Zheng Ge couldn't help but laugh.
To be honest, when he came to watch a movie and heard that there were no tickets, he was not only not angry, but actually very happy. This shows that the box office was a hit!
This cinema is also a very large cinema in Jiangnan City.
At 9:30, there are three theaters showing "Hotel 17", but even so, there are no tickets.
He wished he had no tickets every day.
Gradually, more than an hour passed.
It's their turn to enter.
Walking into the screening room and looking around, the occupancy rate in Zheng Ge's screening room was at least about 70%.
Soon, the movie will play.
There are not many scenes in this movie. Most of the scenes are in a hotel, where various bizarre things happen, triggering stories one after another.
This suspenseful movie has some funny elements.
Some of the laughs made moviegoers burst into laughter.
In the movie, the heroine Bai Wenjing is dressed in red and is very beautiful.
I believe that after this wave, it should attract a lot of fans.
"The heroine is so beautiful."
Xi Meng whispered in Zheng Ge's ear.
"I can also introduce you to each other." Zheng Ge said with a smile.
"That's not necessary." Simon shook his head and said with a smile, "Just let it go."
Zheng Ge nodded and continued watching the movie.
The plot of the movie is good and very eye-catching, making people get involved unconsciously.
Before I knew it, two hours had passed.
After the movie was over, the audience left the theater in order, still unsatisfied. Some of them were with their friends, talking about the plot of the movie with great interest.
Basically all good reviews.
"It looks really good."
Ximeng admired.
"Let's go have dinner. Where do you want to go in the afternoon?" Zheng Ge took out his cell phone and asked while opening the movie review.
Normally, I seldom see Ximeng, a magical city and a Jiangnan city.
Since we met and it's the holidays, it would be nice to go shopping with her.
To him, Simon is not only a partner, but also a friend.
Ximeng narrowed his eyes and smiled, "Let's go to the West Lake."
Zheng Ge: "Okay."
…
After leaving the cinema and sitting in the car, Zheng Ge began to read movie reviews.
"I'll wipe it, you big dark horse!"
"Is it Hotel No. 17? I watched it last night and it was really good."
"Yes, not only is the plot good, but the actors are also well chosen. It's not like a certain movie, where you just look for big names and don't care about the fit between the actors and the characters."
"These actors are all newcomers, and it seems that several new talented actors are about to make their debut."
"I like Liuliu."
"I like it. The actor who plays Liu Liu is called Bai Wenjing. She is so beautiful."
"Don't you pay attention to Uncle Gao? Uncle Gao is old, but his acting skills still kill a lot of young people."
"Agree."
"..."
After reading some comments from netizens, Zheng Ge put away his phone.
Almost unanimously positive reviews.
But Zheng Ge knew that this was just the beginning.
With the box office of "Hotel 17" soaring, there will definitely be a lot of bad reviews.
There is no other way. Wherever there are people, there will be fights.
During the prime time period on October 1st, a large number of works by famous directors were released. A large number of films with big-name stars were cast. However, they were crushed by films made by a group of newcomers. It’s strange to be convinced.
If you are not convinced, you will be suppressed.
A common method of suppression is to invite trolls to use all their strength to blackmail people.
…
On October 1st, Zheng Ge stayed with Xi Meng all day long.
The next day, Simon went back to work. Although it was still the October 1st holiday, for her, there was no concept of a holiday at all.
The group is getting bigger and bigger, there are more and more affairs, and there are endless documents every day. How can I have time to take a vacation?
If Zheng Ge hadn't come yesterday, she would have spent the whole day reading documents in the study.
Xi Meng went to work, while Zheng Ge came to Xianyu Company and talked with Meng Tongfeng about the next development of the Xianyu platform.
"Brother Zheng, Paipai.com of Penguin Group has begun its transformation and is preparing to become a trading platform for idle items. Once the transformation is successful, it will be our main opponent."
In the general manager's office of Xianyu Company, Meng Tongfeng said to Zheng Ge seriously.
"Penguin, there is indeed a threat. How are the financing talks going on with Taobao?"
Zheng Ge said with narrowed eyes.
Xianyu is preparing to launch a financing plan, and the financing source is Taobao, the country's No. 1 e-commerce platform. Once the financing is successful, Xianyu can use Taobao's resources to soar into the sky.
The current Xianyu development is too slow.
It has been more than half a year, and there is still not much improvement. Based on its own development alone, it is estimated that it will take at least another year to truly rise.
