It is agreed that the 18th line will be top-notch?

Chapter 459 Success is the Mother of Failure

"'The Boys 2' is out, everyone go watch it!"

"..."

The person who said this was not the publicity hired by the group, nor was it the work of Chengyu Media, but Luo Ruying.

She actually took the initiative to help the group promote its new movie.

The audience surrounding the holographic projector burst into laughter.

"Okay, okay, buy the tickets!"

"Buy! You must buy! Mom will buy you whatever you want!"

"No, Kuiguang Group, what's wrong with you guys? You actually let Luo Ruying come out to sell tickets. I'm going to turn from a fan to a hater! You can't bully children. Let me sell it. I can do it!"

"..."

In a teahouse not far away, Yang Ruoqian sat in his own private room, looking down through the window at this grand event.

There were not many people in the room, only Yang Ruoqian, Chang Zhiqing, a middle-level manager from the operations department, and Shao Yiqi, who had recently contacted the zoologist and was almost mentally ill.

The room they were assigned had its own screening equipment and was in a very good location in the shopping mall.

You can eat by lowering your head, watch the currently airing "The Boys 2" by looking up, and see the group's surrounding industries by turning your head.

It can be said that among the exclusive private rooms, this room is the most luxurious.

"Not bad, it looks very popular." Shao Yiqi commented casually, "It looks like the domestic box office is stable this time."

Yes, the current box office of "The Boys 2" did not surprise Mr. Yang at all.

It would be strange if anything went wrong with such a luxurious team.

The biggest variable now is how overseas markets perform.

As they watched the movie and ate at the same time, they could all tell that the quality and plot of this movie were still top-notch, and there was no decline compared to the first one.

The first part of "The Boys" ends with the protagonists successfully completing their revenge and eliminating the evil celebrity superheroes. But as we all know, the evil behind all this is related to Homelander and the company behind it, and the protagonists are wanted for this and can only live in exile.

The second part follows the first part and continues the story.

The Hero of the Motherland still appears to be a savior in front of outsiders, but behind the scenes he behaves like a nouveau riche who has made a fortune, wantonly swaying the darkness in his heart.

But this time, the film weaves in the story of the origin of Homelander’s identity, while also beginning to slowly unravel the worldview.

Since three of the seven superheroes died mysteriously or fell into disgrace in the first film, the team is seriously short of members.

So, according to the procedures, a staff member of the company called in a young man who was blind but had excellent hearing and could manipulate the javelin as if it were his own hands.

Then, while visiting his new teammate, Homelander smiled and encouraged him, but unexpectedly, his face suddenly turned gloomy, and he stretched out his hands at lightning speed and slapped his new teammate's ears like slapping a fly.

A second ago, Homelander was all smiles, praising his new teammate with approval: "And you, my friend, you are the real hero."

The next second, he looked fiercely at his new teammate who was covering his ears and screaming on the ground with an extremely terrifying look. His tone was so calm that it made people shudder with ridicule: "Now~you are just a useless blind man?"

After saying that, the Homelander stepped over the blood flowing on the ground and began to threaten the employee who followed the procedure, bringing the whole movie to a new climax.

"..."

There are many scenes in this movie with huge contrasts and extremely strong emotional changes, which are enough to become famous scenes.

Even before the movie was released, people who had watched the movie were already discussing this plot online.

Yang Ruoqian took a look at the content of the movie and couldn't help but sigh in his heart.

There is little room for accidents.

The movie is really well made and every actor's performance is as stable as in the first part.

Shao Yiqi was eating and watching a movie at the same time, and asked casually, "By the way, where is Shang Qianyu? Normally, she would definitely come here to eat at this time, why didn't I see her today?"

In the past, Shang Qianyu would find excuses to eat and drink when he had nothing to do; when he was taking a walk in the company, he would finish a lot of snacks in the rest area.

The movie was released today, and it performed quite well at the domestic box office. Given her personality, she would have shamelessly followed him here to eat and drink for free.

Could it be that this child has become calmer after not seeing him for a few days?

Yang Ruoqian knew that some people would be curious about this matter, and said, "I sent her and other actors from the crew out to take advantage of the popularity of the movie and at least make her familiar in the overseas market first."

In other words, Mr. Yang has been cheated by Xiao Shang so many times, and this time he finally found an opportunity to exile her abroad, how could he not seize it?

If Shang Qianyu were eating here, he would definitely be trying to take credit and be very proud of himself, which would cause considerable psychological trauma to President Yang.

"Sure...By the way, how is the overseas market performing?"

Yang Ruoqian retracted his gaze and took out his cell phone: "Just ask and you'll know. Xiao Shang should have some first-hand information."

In fact, the secretary who is still handling documents in the company should also have the box office information of some regions, but she needs to make a summary, so she has not reported it yet.

"Xiao Shang, come out quickly."

After arriving at the destination, Shang Qianyu still found some time to have a big meal, and even took some photos of the feast to send to Yang Ruoqian.

Shang Qianyu replied almost immediately: "Xiao Shang is here! What do you want, boss?"

Yang Ruoqian asked: "How is it? How is the overseas market response?"

"Very good, very good!" Shang Qianyu's typing speed was obviously much faster than when he first joined the company. "I feel that the scale of my book signing event here is not inferior to that in China. I heard from the local staff that according to the trend of the first day, the final total box office is expected to reach at least 3000 million US dollars."

As if worried that Yang Ruoqian would not be satisfied with this figure, Shang Qianyu immediately added: "Boss, don't think that 3000 million US dollars is not enough for you to fill your teeth. In fact, it is really a lot!"

"This place is not as good as ours in terms of population or economy. If even here can contribute so much box office, other places will only be higher."

"I just overheard the statistics from the sister next door. They said that the total global box office this time is expected to exceed 4 million US dollars!"

When Yang Ruoqian saw this number, his heart suddenly skipped a beat.

With the global box office, plus the domestic box office, plus peripheral sales... it feels like the group will be able to save enough money for a cruise ship soon?
Seeing that Yang Ruoqian still didn't say anything, Shang Qianyu quickly gave a few examples: "Boss, let me tell you about this concept...'Captain America 3' has a global box office of about 4 million;'Pirates of the Caribbean 2' has a global box office of about 4 million." "Our movie box office is already at this level, it's really good! Although it can't compare to those monsters in the top ten, this is our first attempt. First, we need to build a good fan base and operate the basic plate well.'The Boys 3' will definitely exceed 10 billion box office!"

"No one can resist the hook left at the end of the movie. Some people have already complained that they have seen novels with fragments, but have never seen movies with fragments."

"..."

Shang Qianyu sent a lot of messages, seeming to be very worried that Yang Ruoqian would not be satisfied with the overseas box office performance, and worried that Yang Ruoqian would not be satisfied with his own performance.

A global box office of over $4 million was, in an absolute sense, a huge success. It not only broke domestic records, but also ranked in the top 40 in the entire history of film.

This is a brilliant achievement that many filmmakers would never dare to imagine.

But in relative terms, this success does not seem to be huge.

After all, the Kuiguang Group has created so many miracles that, in comparison, this number can only be considered mediocre.

To put it bluntly, there are too many excellent projects in the group.

Yang Ruoqian had recovered from the pain of having to earn an unknown amount of money and said, "You think too much. I am very satisfied. I am really very satisfied! You have earned enough. Take a rest and don't put too much pressure on yourself."

In fact, he really wanted to say, brothers and sisters, you should earn less, all the money is earned by you, who can earn more than you?

But thinking about the many people eating together, he controlled his desire to complain.

Moreover, what Shang Qianyu said was not wrong.

This is the group's first real attempt to step onto the international stage, and fan reputation is still in the early stages of accumulation.

Once everyone has a clear understanding of the quality of "The Boys 2", the actors' acting skills and the plot, and once the actors have accumulated a large number of global fans, coupled with the itchy hook left at the end of the movie, the box office of the third part will inevitably usher in a large-scale explosion.

Shang Qianyu said cautiously: "Really, Boss? You don't think I earn too little, do you?"

Yang Ruoqian suppressed the urge to block him: "Okay, my phone is out of service, I'm hanging up, let's talk next time."

"Boss, before it was out of oil, last time it was out of water, this time it was out of fire, what will happen next time?"

"Bye."

After driving Shang Qianyu away, Yang Ruoqian received another letter from Mag.

"Sir Yang, great success, great success, hahaha!"

Yang Ruoqian had been waiting for this guy. He took a bite of food and replied slowly, "Did Mr. Mag get any specific information?"

"The statistics are still being processed," Mager continued, still using his strange Chinese. "According to calculations by our professional staff, the global box office is at least $4 million."

Yang Ruoqian was a little curious: "For Mr. Mag, does a global box office of 4 million count as a 'huge success'?"

Success is certain. If a movie that makes it into the top 40 in global film history is considered a failure, then there would be too many failed movies to count.

However, the global box office share will have an additional money-sharing link, so the proportion of money that can be shared will be lower than that of the domestic box office.

This cash flow is not a small amount of money for Mag's company, but it doesn't seem worth being so happy about?

"Yes, I definitely will!" Mag typed slowly, but it was obvious that he was very happy. "I see potential, potential! The first movie has such a good performance, I believe it will be even better in the future. I believe in my vision and your ability, Sir Yang!"

potential……

Haha, ordinary outsiders only see the potential of "The Boys 2", but Yang Ruoqian is different. What he sees is even greater.

Looking at the current attention of netizens, all the big news in the entertainment industry are basically completely divided up by this movie and Luo Ruying.

Has anyone else noticed the upcoming "Wandering Blue Star 2"?

From the perspective of filming costs, the cost of "Wandering Blue Planet 2" is far higher than that of "The Boys 2".

Everyone's attention is focused on this movie, so who will pay attention to "Wandering Blue Planet 2"?

When countless netizens were rejoicing that domestic culture had finally begun to go abroad and the domestic entertainment industry had finally ushered in a milestone honor, Mr. Yang secretly released the movie at this time.

Then it must be a failure, right?
Yang Ruoqian couldn't help but feel a little emotional when he thought about how he came up with such an idea just to lose some money.

In the past, he at least had the opportunity to work on some outrageous projects that would fail at first glance.

Nowadays, it is difficult to create a box office failure just by relying on acting, plot, technology, etc.

You have to rely on diversion, deception, and sneak attacks.

The success of "The Boys 2" was exchanged for the failure of "Wandering Blue Planet 2".

To sum it up with an old saying, success is the mother of failure. If you want to fail, you must succeed first.

After finishing the meal, Yang Ruoqian waved his hand and said, "Okay, the group doesn't have any drinking culture. Just do your own things after dinner."

Shao Yiqi still had to quickly get the preparations for the zoo started, and couldn't let him just sit here and waste time.

After saying that, Yang Ruoqian left the restaurant.

When they walked downstairs, a young girl who looked like a reporter and who had just been happily "interviewing" Luo Ruying with a microphone spotted Yang Ruoqian and quickly ran over.

"Hello, Mr. Yang. I am, uh, an unknown up-loader at Station B. Can I ask you a question? One, just one!"

Yang Ruoqian stopped and said, "Go ahead and ask. We have a little time."

In fact, the girl hadn't thought about what question to ask, but she came up with the impromptu wording because she didn't want to miss the opportunity.

Be sincere and try to make others accept your request.

Several questions flashed through her mind, and she suddenly had an idea and asked, "Mr. Yang, your "Boys 2" has achieved great success in the global market. You should enter the international market in the future. Have you ever thought about opening a company branch overseas?"

Overseas company branch?

Yang Ruoqian was stunned for a moment - he seemed to have never thought about this question carefully. (End of this chapter)
