China Entertainment Anchor

Chapter 630 Charity Reservation

"What other musical instruments can it be paired with?" Liu Yifei asked.

"Tao xun, dongxiao, guzheng and other traditional Chinese instruments!"

Liu Yifei walked out of the piano room disappointed.

Early the next morning, Zhang Yang had just finished breakfast when his assistant suddenly came to his home.

Zhang Yang saw him and asked casually: "Did something happen again?"

"Something did happen." The assistant said seriously.

After hearing this, Zhang Yang felt that his crow's mouth was acting on him.

He walked to the sofa and sat down, motioning for his assistant to sit down as well.

The assistant did not hesitate. After he sat down, he said to Zhang Yang: "Since early this morning, screenshots have been circulating on Tieba, Bibo, and Zhihu.

Accused that Broadway, Paragon and other Anler-owned theaters have all kinds of fancy bookings. "

Liu Yifei also nodded, then walked to Liu's mother, opened her arms and shouted: "One by one."

The assistant nodded and continued: "As of the end of yesterday, the cumulative box office of "Monster Hunt", which was released for 43 days, has reached 23.54 billion.

It is still about 1.2 million short of the domestic box office record of "Manslaughter". They are now starting to hit the box office. "

"But they have an advantage. Anle has its own movie theaters. They have 17 movie theaters in 29 cities in China. Their cost of raising box office is too low. It may only cost about 1.2 million to rack up a box office of 1200 million. "The assistant analyzed.

"They have a lot of ideas to create a domestic movie box office champion!" Zhang Yang said with a smile.

"Then it's okay if you all live here."

"This is a suburb after all. Although it is not far from the city, it will be troublesome if there is a traffic jam. You also know how congested the capital is." Zhang Yang continued.

"This is Anle, who has produced masterpieces such as "Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon" and claims to stick to the expansion of art theaters." Zhang Yang couldn't help laughing.

""Monster Hunt"?" Zhang Yang quickly realized what was going on.

"Indeed, Mom, it would be nice if you have the opportunity to change your place to live for a long time. It's usually too empty just for you and one or two other people." Zhang Yang analyzed seriously.

Before Zhang Yang could answer Liu's mother's question, Liu Yifei also walked down the stairs.

She said to her mother at this time: "That's the bad thing about a big house. Sometimes it's scary."

"Isn't it good over there in the courtyard, Zhang Yang, don't you think so?" After Liu Yifei finished speaking, she continued to talk to Zhang Yang.

Although he released a song, at most it was a little way to vent his emotions. To say that he had completely let go, he didn't believe it.

This is also a feature of a large house. The echo is very loud, and sometimes it gets louder and louder.

Now there is another movie using this method to win the domestic box office championship.

The assistant thought it was no wonder. The boss had just experienced that his movie could not participate in the Oscars.

Although Zhang Yang was smiling, his assistant felt a little cold.

Mother and son were connected, and one by one immediately screamed "wow" in Liu's mother's arms, saying that he wanted to go to his mother's arms.

"Why are you laughing so loudly? You can hear them all in the small playground." Liu's mother came to the hall and asked Zhang Yang with her child in her arms.

"Tell me how he operates. Let me open my eyes." Zhang Yang said to his assistant with a smile.

"There is no place where everything is perfect." Liu's mother said nonchalantly.

Mother Liu didn't stop her and let Liu Yifei take the child over. The little guy giggled as soon as he reached Liu Yifei's arms.

Seeing this, Mother Liu pinched his face and complained: "I have worked so long for you in vain."

Zhang Yang and Liu Yifei looked at each other and showed a tacit smile.

Liu Yifei walked directly to Zhang Yang and sat down and said, "If you have any happy things, tell them so that Yiyi can be happy too."

Liu Yifei said and kissed her one by one.

Mother Liu also sat down, she was also a little curious.

Zhang Yang looked at the assistant and said, "They are all so interested, why don't you tell me."

The assistant continued to explain: "According to the information we learned from Bibo, "Monster Hunt" is reserved in the early morning, from 1 o'clock to 6 o'clock, and all seats are shown to be full.

Forget it, they reopened the show in the same theater every 15 to 20 minutes, and some shows were still full. "

After hearing this, Liu Yifei couldn't help but widen her eyes and asked: "What do they want to do by raking in the box office so frantically?"

"They probably want to win the box office title of a domestic film," the assistant analyzed.

"What's the point of winning such a championship?" Liu Yifei couldn't understand.

"Maybe I have made enough money and want to achieve both fame and fortune." The assistant analyzed.

This time "Monster Hunt" includes reshoots with changing roles, and the cost was only 3.5 million. Now their box office revenue is more than 9 million, which is a huge profit.

Moreover, the monster elements of this movie are obviously going to be sold in the global market. In addition, it can also sell some peripherals. If the financial benefits are enough, it will be a good choice to become the box office champion of mainland movies.

"Is the discussion about scarves hot?" Zhang Yang asked.

"It's so big, it's even out of the circle."

"Then let him be more out of the circle!"

The assistant reminded Zhang Yang at this time: "Boss, I need you to contact the scarf department in person."

After Team Zhou was "prompted" by Zhang Yang, talking in the bib was no longer so easy.

Even if there is Xinlang Entertainment's 15th anniversary event, he can at most take more care of the entertainment section, but no one will care about him when it comes to the comprehensive section.

"Isn't there something wrong here? Go over and help him." Zhang Yang looked at his assistant and said with a smile. When the assistant saw the smile Zhang Yang looked at him, he knew that his boss had seen through all his little thoughts, but it didn't matter because he didn't hide it from his boss.

"Okay, I will communicate with Mr. Wang and get the matter done." The assistant assured Zhang Yang.

After saying that, he said goodbye to Zhang Yang and went to work.

Zhang Yang looked at the assistant's leaving figure and shook his head. Turning around and looking at his son, he reached out to take the child from Liu Yifei's arms.

As a result, the little guy was not willing to come into his arms.

Zhang Yang couldn't help but stare at him and said: "You are so disobedient. It seems that you are not cute at all."

Liu Yifei rolled her eyes at Zhang Yang and replied: "You are not cute."

Zhang Yang reached out and pinched the little guy's nose, but the little guy stretched out his hand and hit Zhang Yang's fingers. It's really not cute at all.

In the afternoon, the news about Anle Pictures’ booking of the theater was just like adding fuel to the fire. The news spread more and more widely, and it directly ranked in the top ten of the comprehensive section of the scarf.

And he had no intention of falling. With the crowd so angry, Anle quickly issued an announcement.

This announcement is particularly interesting. They directly created a new concept of "charity reservations."

They invite people over 60 years old, children under 12 years old, doctors, nurses, people with disabilities, teachers, volunteers, and people in the military and police system to watch "Monster Hunt" for free.

The time is two weeks, which means that basically until the end of their postponed screening, the venue will be reserved.

They also gave a perfect answer for showing a movie in fifteen minutes.

This was a miscommunication of information, which led to errors in film scheduling at the cinema. They have already criticized and educated the relevant personnel.

Such deceptive words may not have any effect in 05, let alone today in 15.

No need for Zhang Yang to contribute any more, now it is the whole people who are launching a crusade against Anle Pictures. And it is a well-founded crusade.

First, you have so many queues to show charity movies at midnight. Are there so many elderly, children, and disabled people going to watch the movie in the middle of the night?

Second, the theater chain showed one movie eight times in the same hall of the same cinema. What’s even more funny is that the attendance rate for these eight times was 100%. What were they watching?

Third, it’s still this cinema. Why are the durations of other movies not adjusted correctly? Only the producer’s own movies are shown for 15 minutes or even 10 minutes.

Some netizens asked in their souls, I believe that Anle Pictures is not trying to boost the box office. They are really doing "charity". Do you believe it?

Who can believe this! Faced with overwhelming public opinion, Zhang Yang wanted to see what they would do.

Of course, Zhang Yang felt that this was not enough, so at five or six o'clock in the afternoon, he provided this new idea to his assistant.

So soon a hot search appeared on the scarf, asking the General Administration to look up "Monster Hunting".

This topic was soon ranked among the top 50 in the comprehensive section.

If Anle could still remain calm in the face of overwhelming public opinion, then this hot search made them restless.

If the film bureau really wants to investigate them, it means that it will not accept their statement of "charitable movie theaters".

I don't know what the consequences will be.

Will Anle Pictures just sit back and wait for death? of course not!

So the next day, Zhang Yang received a call from someone.

An unexpected phone call in the middle of cleaning up. Lao Mouzi called Zhang Yang while he was accompanying his child.

Lao Mouzi and Jiang Zhiqiang, the boss of Anle, have become friends since "Hero". At first, Lao Mouzi was worried that Jiang Zhiqiang would lose money if he invested too much, so he advised him: Don't imagine how big the domestic market is.

But Jiang Zhiqiang said: "It doesn't matter. If "Hero" doesn't work, one day the audience will still like to go to the cinema to watch it."

Since then, Lao Mouzi's films have had a stable collaborator, and he is Jiang Zhiqiang.

Even after he switched to LeTV, he collaborated with Jiang Zhiqiang in the movie "Return", and their cooperation did not end until the current "The Great Wall".

"Brother, why are you calling me when you have time? How is the filming of "The Great Wall" going?" Zhang Yang answered the phone and asked with a smile.

"The shooting is over, now we have to enter the post-production phase." Lao Mouzi said with a smile.

"Then I'll wait to enjoy your blockbusters, senior brother."

"Do you have time recently? I have an old friend here who wants to meet you."

"Oh!" Zhang Yang said "oh" in his second voice.

"Mr. Jiang from Anle, he said he wanted to get to know you. He and I are old friends, so he gave you this call." Lao Mouzi explained.

"Brother, when is your movie expected to be released?" Zhang Yang did not answer his question, but asked something irrelevant.

"At least not until the end of next year!" Lao Mouzi said uncertainly.

"Look at it this way, I may not be free during that time. I have a lot of things to be busy with!" Zhang Yang said with a frown.

Zhang Yang secretly said that you stayed at Cannes last year to attend the closing ceremony of my movie. No matter what the reason was, I accepted this favor, so I went to attend your movie premiere.

Now if you ask me to meet Anle's boss, it's still when something like this happens to him. Okay, then I won't go to the premiere.

Of course Lao Mouzi heard the hidden meaning in Zhang Yang's words, and he made a decision after thinking about it for a while.

"Zhang Yang, your own affairs are more important. If you don't attend a premiere, just be absent!"

Zhang Yang checked the time after hearing this. It was only around 10 in the morning. Zhang Yang took the initiative and said, "Senior brother, I hope you understand. Are you free this afternoon?"

Lao Mouzi also wanted to resolve this matter as soon as possible, so he said simply: "Yes."

"Then let's meet in my studio this afternoon!" Zhang Yang suggested.

"Okay, Zhang Yang, I've wanted to see your studio for a long time."

Soon the two hung up the phone.

Liu Yifei on the side listened to the entire conversation between Zhang Yang and Lao Mouzi. At this time, she asked curiously: "How are you going to deal with this matter?"
