This is the rhythm of firing. Zhang Yimou is broad-minded and unwilling to take the lead. Moreover, he and Ye Ming have a good relationship. It is obviously not worth it to break up directly.
But when it comes to a matter like this, Weiping doesn’t see it that way.
Zhang Weiping is a businessman, and everyone knows that his relationship with Ye Ming is a bit relaxed, but it is definitely not a good one.
Moreover, some time ago everyone was touting the golden armor everywhere in the city, but now in a situation like this, almost everyone is touting the running bar.
And in terms of box office, Run Bar has directly surpassed several streets in the city. The weekly box office has reached nearly 500 million, which is definitely a rhythm that defies heaven.
This obviously has the intention of seizing the share of the golden armor in the city.
Otherwise, the box office of a movie like Golden Armor might have increased even more.
In the company's office, Zhang Yimou said with some worry: "Ye Ming is a person who must report his flaws. If you offend him like this, will he look for opportunities to retaliate? After all, our movie is about to be released.
Well, when it comes to making money, I make a lot of money.
Subsequently, there will be income from cassettes, overseas copyrights and other peripherals. I must have made a lot of money.
I think there is no need for us to offend Ye Ming at this time." Zhang Yimou did not agree with Zhang Weiping and Ye Ming's direct confrontation with this matter.
Ye Ming is not the kind of person who swallows his anger, he is the kind of person who does not wait for revenge overnight. Anyway, Ye Ming is the kind of person who can take revenge today but will never wait until tomorrow.
Zhang Weiping said with great certainty: "Don't worry about this, I know it in my heart.
Look, it was reported that we are the best in the city. We are the annual champions, but Ye Ming surpassed us in two or three days. Can we bear this?
We don't care if he competes for the championship in 2007, but he is clearly stepping on us to get the upper hand.
Therefore, at this time, I will not let go of this opportunity for speculation. Yes, this is me using Ye Ming to hype up the golden armor in the city.
Since the release of Running Bar, no one has paid much attention to Golden Armor.
Think about it, does this have a big impact on the income of our movies?
Now that I have attracted everyone's attention again, what can I do if I offend him on such an issue?
I am a businessman and I have to think about my investment. If I can make more money and increase the box office of Golden Armor, this is what I should do.
As for how to make a movie and how to build a good relationship with people in the entertainment industry, this is what you, the director, should do.
Besides, my relationship with Ye Ming is not very good to begin with, so it’s impossible for him to treat me as a friend, right?"
Zhang Weiping is self-aware of this. After all, the fight between him and Ye Ming is not just a day or two.
Although they will not become enemies at this time, if they want to become friends, it is simply impossible.
And after such an incident, the two people are almost equal, even if they are not enemies.
This actually makes it more difficult for Zhang Yimou to do it in the middle.
But what Zhang Weiping said is also relatively practical. Zhang Weiping himself is a businessman, and he must be responsible for his own investment.
At this time, in fact, if you start a fight with Ye Ming, it is just to gain popularity. Relatively speaking, it is a very easy way to attract everyone's attention.
Zhang Yimou could only say helplessly: "Forget it, I think this matter is enough. After all, Ye Ming is not easy to deal with. Don't offend him too much."
Regarding Zhang Yimou's proposal, Zhang Weiping nodded in agreement and said: "Okay, I will restrain myself from this. After all, I am here to gain popularity, not to offend Ye Ming to death.
I have to be careful if I offend someone like this."
In order to gain popularity and increase the box office of Golden Armor, Zhang Weiping actually went all out.
Faced with Zhang Weiping's provocative behavior, Ye Ming could actually have rebutted him directly, but if he retaliate directly about this matter, it would make him look so incompetent to a certain extent.
Ye Ming was not willing to end the matter easily like this.
Zhang Weiping was always against him for more than a day or two. He was always causing trouble for himself.
Ye Ming actually found such a person very annoying.
Therefore, when Hong Fei asked Ye Ming for advice, he said: "Boss, this Zhang Weiping is not authentic. I already apologized to you last time and gave in. But in such a critical situation, he has created another obstacle for us."
Boss, how about I find an opportunity to clean up their company?"
Ye Ming shook his head and said: "Zhang Weiping is a businessman. Therefore, under such circumstances, it is normal for him to gain popularity in order to increase the final box office of his movie. In fact, I have already
Knowing that someone is envious and jealous, even if Zhang Weiping is not the first to jump out, he will definitely jump out after others.
Anyway, as long as he is doing it to hype his movie, it doesn’t matter how he says it. You can’t ask a businessman to be like a saint and have no desires or demands. Isn’t this the truth?”
Even though Hong Fei couldn't understand Ye Ming's words like this, he still felt that they had a noble meaning.
Hong Fei explained: "Actually, if we talk about it in private, we really don't care about this matter. You know that one kind of rice can feed all kinds of people, and this movie cannot be liked by everyone.
In my opinion, as long as two-thirds of people like it, it is good. If four-fifths of people like it, it is genius level.
Therefore, in such a situation, I will just say it in front of the boss. In other cases, I will definitely try to understand this kind of thing.
So are we pretending not to see this kind of thing?" Ye Ming said very definitely at this time: "It's almost like this.
It’s better for you to be careful and don’t make it difficult for yourself. Zhang Weiping is a guy who cares about food but not about fighting. He must teach Zhang Weiping a profound lesson.”
Revenge does not last overnight, this is also a method Ye Ming often uses. Hong Fei was a little confused and gave Zhang Weiping a profound lesson, how to do it better.
Hong Fei immediately felt that something like this was a bit embarrassing. Zhang Weiping was not just a cat or a dog, he was also a person of considerable status in the entertainment industry.
Ye Ming immediately said: "The box office, I'm talking about the box office, don't those fans always like to support the original version. Then we will work hard on such a thing.
Originally, I was actually unwilling to participate in such a thing. Our movie "Run Brothers" had such a box office, which was already rare in those days.
Therefore, I am not willing to get involved in this kind of thing. But Zhang Weiping is not very authentic. You said that the city is full of big steamed buns, and this kind of video has appeared for so many days.
He didn't ask and didn't take it seriously. Isn't this just letting it go? But at this time, our movie had a good box office, surpassing the Golden Armor in the City, and he actually brought up the old thing again.
This is a bit unkind.
Therefore, I decided to intervene in this matter. The box office is only so high, and Zhang Weiping is jealous. If the box office reaches one billion, will he be so angry that he vomits blood at this time?"
In the future, if the box office of a movie exceeds 1 billion, it will already be considered a standard feature of blockbusters. Of course, the later Love and Tomb Raiders does not count, it is a wonder in the entertainment industry. To be honest, Love and Tomb Robbery are both golden IPs.
Just talking about it, it is an IP that can earn a lot of nostalgia no matter how you read it.
Needless to say about love, there are so many people’s memories. Although there is a suspicion of borrowing from American TV series, as long as the reference is good, it doesn’t matter. Anyway, they are all everyone’s memories.
As long as these people are starring, even if it is in a box-like apartment, there will still be a lot of audiences willing to pay.
Tomb Robbery is also one of the two classics of the Tomb Robbery style. It can be regarded as a work in the founding sect. But if these two works are added together, what kind of ghost will it be? Could it be that it is causing trouble?
Of course, if it had been made clear during the promotion that it was a side story, or it had been made clear that it was a love story, then it would not be a big deal.
If you like it, just go and watch it. If you don't like it, then there is no such thing as a dark love story at this time.
The key is that in a situation like this, the promotion was based on the feelings of a love apartment, but in the end it was a tomb-robbing flow that we were shown. This can be regarded as deceiving the audience's feelings.
Therefore, at this time, Love Cemetery has basically created a history. The box office on the first day may be higher than all the box office on other days. In other words, the total box office of this movie may not exceed six
Billions.
In fact, this is a very big harm to fans of love and tomb robbers, especially to those fans of love, it is definitely a very big harm.
Anyway, it’s hard to say whether the audience will have the same emotional support as before when there is a second big love movie.
Of course, this is the box office later. Have you ever seen a box office of 5 billion? Wolf Warrior 2 has a box office of more than 5 billion.
If Ye Ming said that Chinese films could reach such a high level in the future, not many people would believe it.
But this is a fact. Therefore, when Ye Ming saw the box office of less than 500 million, he really felt that it was not very good.
From Ye Ming's point of view, even if he has said a billion dollars, the box office is not that high.
After all, after one billion, it couldn't even make it into the top ten at the box office. Even if it made one billion, it couldn't even make it into the top twenty.
This period is only ten years. It can be seen that the box office of Chinese movies has developed rapidly, which is absolutely shocking.
Huihuang.com fully recommends it. This is Ye Ming once again using the killer weapon of Huihuang.com.
Originally, this time the Running Brothers movie had the help of CCTV to promote it, and it even made the news. This was already a very rare promotion.
Therefore, although Huihuang.com promoted Running Brothers, Huihuang.com did not fully exert its efforts.
This is also Ye Ming's test of how his company's movies will fare according to normal advertising on Huihui.com without the full support of Huihui.com.
For example, the forced pop-up window was useless this time on Huihuang.com.
But Zhang Weiping was actually jealous and wanted to start a fight with Ye Ming, so this time Ye Ming launched an all-out publicity campaign on Huihui.com.
As a result, this thing is also very strange. In the history of movies, there is generally a pattern, that is, the box office of a movie is the highest in the first week, and then slowly declines in the second and third weeks.
If there are no surprises, the movie's box office performance in the first week will definitely be higher than that in the second week.
Of course, this decline generally has a limit, and it declines slowly. Weird diving championship movies such as Love and Tomb Raiders do not fall within this rule.
This is not a publicity method that ordinary imaginations can come up with.
Of course, there are some surprises to this pattern. For example, for Titanic, the box office in the first week was not as high as in the second week.
And this time, the box office of Ye Ming's Running Brothers actually increased in the second week. The box office every day was more than 70 million. This was the case for the first three days. In three days, it won two
More than 100 million box office results.
This is an even more amazing performance. Running Brothers was able to win so much box office. This time, everyone focused their attention on publicity.
A big killer of Ye Ming’s propaganda is the forced pop-up window of Huihuang.com.
Of course, the quality of the movie Run Brothers is also very good. The acting skills of the actors are not the best, but they are above the level. Xu Zheng, Huang Bo, Wang Baoqiang, and Deng Chao Wang Zulan are all powerful actors in the future.
Even if Wang Zulan is not the best actor, he still has the title of Variety Star King.
It's evident how good his acting skills are.
And there are also special effects from Brilliant Film and Television, which is a big plus for Running Brothers. These are not special effects for fifty cents, but Hollywood-level special effects.
Therefore, viewers who have watched the movie will generally say that it is a work of conscience.
At least no one would say that Ye Ming was cheating everyone of their money.
Therefore, in the second week, many people actually went to the cinema with their families to watch the movies twice or three times.
This is also an important reason for the increase in box office in the first three days of the second week.
