After the annual meeting, the app pulled out a banner: Famous singer and director Qin Xiaobao stands for me as a great writer.
There were still a small number of people watching the live broadcast, and most readers were in a state of confusion. They were surprised to find that many authors and many books they were following had posted chapter tweets, and they were actually recommending movies.
After reading the notes and photos, it suddenly dawned on me.
The most direct impact is on "The Rebellion of the Immortal" and "Ghost Blowing the Lamp". The collection and subscription of the two works have skyrocketed, and everyone wants to see how good the stars are.
After discussing with Kiwi Tao, the website organized a separate event to draw movie tickets, which made many authors envious. No one else has received this kind of treatment.
For Qin Xiaobao, he is naturally happy to have an extremely huge publicity channel for no reason. This resource is difficult to measure in terms of money.
Quickly or slowly, on December 28th, the month-long promotion of the movie came to an end.
He, his brother, and Liu Tianwang completed the scheduled schedule completely, while the other actors participated as much as possible.
Tired is really tired.
If it were summer, it would definitely be dark. Xiaobao himself had traveled to nineteen cities, held more than sixty meetings, had no less than 20,000 people, and traveled hundreds of thousands of kilometers, which is equivalent to traveling half of China.
The effect is very significant.
On the 26th, "This Man Came from Earth" officially started pre-sale. In two days, the pre-sale box office reached 1.84 million, temporarily ranking first among all new films released, slightly higher than "Happy Enemies", that is, Xu Zheng
's new film.
After hearing the news, everyone breathed a sigh of relief. The publicity was effective, and pre-sales were very important. This was a good start, as it was related to the theater schedule in the first two days.
Occasionally, I can see news that a certain director denounced him, and the theater suppressed it and deliberately refused to schedule films.
Simply put, film schedule is the movie release rate.
For example, a movie theater has ten screening halls, and each hall shows ten movies a day, which is one hundred shows. If it takes up 20% of the movie schedule, your movie will be rotated twenty times a day.
The longer the queue, the more people watch? The theater's revenue will naturally increase.
Those so-called suppressed directors? In fact, it’s nonsense. If your movie is really watched by people, will the theater not want box office? If you don’t make money, are they deliberately suppressing you?
Do not make jokes.
Before the release, if the effect is not yet visible, the theater will tentatively schedule the films based on the film lineup, publicity, word-of-mouth, pre-sale amount and other factors. In most cases, it is accurate.
Of course, there will also be situations where reputation collapses after a hit, or there is a counterattack, so it is not set in stone.
When Qin Xiaobao returned home, Liu Minghua came to the door.
"Wanda Cinema 23.7%? Dadi 22.6%, China Film 12.8%, Pacific 19.5%..."
Xiaobao poured him a glass of water: "China Film is so low? Why?"
"Oh, they invested in "Happy Enemies"."
"I understand," Qin Xiaobao sat down and said, "Then why is Wanda only 24 years old? We didn't have a very happy chat last time, so the manager is optimistic about us."
"You can only believe half of what a businessman says unless you show actual results," Liu Minghua said very indifferently: "You talk nice, but you give the leading actors face and your title. In fact, the 24 film schedule rate is no longer
Lower.
You don’t know that two more movies were announced at the beginning of the month and will be released on New Year’s Day. With the new movies released this week and last week, the number exceeds ten, which is already quite high.”
"Haven't you all seen the movie?"
"I can only represent my personal opinion after watching it. Who can guarantee that the audience will like it 100%? Director Ning Hao has been making movies for so many years, and Xu Zheng has joined us, so he is barely on par with us. That is because he has a fan base."
Xiaobao heard it, and it meant that he was taking advantage of his brother.
There is nothing to be ashamed of. If you eat meat by force, your brother and the others are on your side anyway. The greater their influence, the more you will benefit.
"After this period of publicity, the predicted box office is a bit higher, already approaching 400 million."
"Predictions are all false, you have to look at reality." Qin Xiaobao has never posted similar propaganda on Weibo, for fear of being slapped in the face later: "Isn't that what you came here this time to say?"
"I was passing by downstairs while doing some work. I stopped by to see you. I haven't seen you for a long time." Liu Minghua smiled and said, "By the way, are you ready? The Gold Label Awards will start the day after tomorrow."
"What's good to prepare for is singing. Now that I don't dare to do anything else, it's okay to sing a song."
"That's fine. Tomorrow Xiaoming will send the dress over for you to try on first. Make sure to rest these two days and don't stay up late."
"I see."
"What about that? Why don't you reconsider the idea of a female companion?" Liu Minghua asked.
"What's wrong?" Qin Xiaobao was surprised: "Isn't it Zhang Bichen?"
"It's inconvenient. Last week she was photographed traveling with her boyfriend outside the industry. There have been rumors about you two in the industry. If they appear together on the gold label, it seems..."
"Ha!?" Qin Xiaobao was shocked.
Damn it, this young lady actually has a boyfriend.
"This... is too sudden."
"She didn't explain it on Weibo, and the company said it was the artist's private matter and didn't respond." Liu Minghua paused and said, "You want to be more open-minded."
Anyone with a discerning eye can see that Qin Xiaobao has a good impression of Zhang Bichen. It may not be called like or love, but if it develops slowly, maybe something may happen.
But now...
Qin Xiaobao suddenly felt a little confused. No wonder the young ladies hadn't chatted with him recently. At first, he thought he knew he was busy, so he didn't bother him. It turned out to be another reason.
If you haven't fallen in love yet, why should you fall in love first? If you are successful in your career, will you be disappointed in love?
Speaking of feelings, there are some. The young lady smiles very sweetly and is very comfortable to chat with. When he heard the news, he felt mixed emotions in his heart.
"Didn't you say it before?" Liu Minghua still has the ability to observe words and emotions.
Qin Xiaobao shook his head: "No, I guess they just regard me as a friend, but they are not that familiar with me, so they didn't tell me."
"You haven't confessed your feelings, have you?"
"How is that possible!" Xiaobao seemed to have been stepped on: "I'm very reserved, okay? Besides, I haven't confessed my feelings for her yet. It's a bit like meeting the most beautiful girl in the class in high school."
"That's good, that's good!" Liu Minghua breathed a sigh of relief. If the boss really confessed and was rejected, it would be embarrassing: "I can't say too much about things between men and women. You can take care of it. What's the problem?
Tell me immediately."
"Well, give me a few days to adjust. It'll be fine." Qin Xiaobao forced a smile and said that he was very sad. He certainly wasn't, but the feeling of loss was unavoidable.
Fortunately, I knew it early and it was still too late to turn back.
He didn't want to continue this topic: "Where did Wang Bingbing find the treasure? It's pretty good."
"Hey, the little girl is pretty good," Liu Minghua said proudly, "My schoolmate introduced her. After a few chats, we decided to sign her. She just graduated from Jilin University."
"Is she quite a singer or an actress?"
"Professional hosts, but now they are blooming on multiple fronts, and there is no absolute. This time I have been running for a month, and my fans have increased a lot. I have more than 200,000 followers on Weibo." Liu Minghua was very proud.
"Well, our family is indeed lacking in artists. I think she is quite seasoned and doesn't look like a newcomer at all."
"How about..." Liu Minghua's eyes lit up: "You will take her to participate in the Gold Label?"
"Can I go without being invited?" Xiaobao hesitated.
"What's the point? Bringing in new people. You're so popular right now. The organizer won't know anything about it. If you agree, I'll ask you right away."
"Ask!" It's the same no matter who you walk on the red carpet with. It would also be a good thing if you can bring someone new from your company.
Liu Minghua stood up and made a call. Xiaobao also picked up his phone, opened WeChat, and saw Zhang Bichen's profile picture. He swiped to the left and was about to delete it when he suddenly laughed.
No, no, men shouldn't be too stingy.
The young lady is not wrong either.
It was my own idea to invite her over in the first place. It can only be said to be a beautiful misunderstanding.
"The organizer agreed." Liu Minghua came back excitedly: "They have made a lot of phone calls in the past few days, for fear that you would not attend."
"That's fine."
"There's one more thing don't forget." Liu Minghua reminded: "The end of the gold label is the premiere of our movie. The friends and companies you need to invite have already been contacted. Out of politeness, you'd better make a call in person."
"Okay, I'll fight now."
Huang Bo will definitely shout, forget about Chen He, Lu Han, Chao Ge, Sun Li will attend with him, He Jiong and Sa Beining should be no problem, both of them have to participate in the Gold Label Awards, turn around and go back to the Magic City, and still
There are Deng Ziqi, Dai Jun, Da Zhangwei, Tao Jingying...
Looking at the address book, Qin Xiaobao suddenly looked forward to it. Who would his brother Tianwang and the others invite?
