The diva and I cross each other

Chapter 467 The right time, right place and right people
"How much? More than 7100 million? Is that true?" In the master bedroom of the villa at night, Lin Shuwen was stunned when she heard the box office performance of "The Return of the Great Sage" on the first day of its release.

"This is still only an 8.3% filming rate. If the filming rate increases in the future, breaking 10 billion won't be a piece of cake. Wenwen, get ready to unlock new tricks!"

Lin Shuwen was a little unconfident at this moment, and she asked weakly, "What's the unlocking position?"

"Of course it's steamed buns with ham!"

Luo Ming has been craving for big white steamed buns for a long time!

"You guy."

"Wenwen, you can't afford to lose, right?" Luo Ming interrupted Lin Shuwen and asked with a smile.

"Who can't afford to lose! Besides, you may not win! How can an animated film easily break 10 billion? The highest box office of a domestic animated film is only 4 million, and that was several years ago."

As she spoke, Lin Shuwen seemed to regain her confidence, and her voice unconsciously became louder.

Luo Ming chuckled. In his opinion, Lin Shuwen was just being stubborn!

He has already won this time.

The next day, Lin Shuwen took Luo Fei shopping, while Luo Ming brought Luo Yi to Zhuoguang Technology.

It’s not that Lin Shuwen didn’t want to take Luo Yi with her. Lin Shuwen also asked Luo Yi to go shopping, but Luo Yi refused without even thinking about it.

Luo Yi is a fan of Lin Shuwen. Even when his idol personally invited him to go shopping, he refused. You can imagine how torturous this activity is for a man.

Luo Yi did not go shopping with them, and Luo Ming felt that he could not leave the child at home alone, so he simply took him to the company.

Luo Yi is still somewhat curious about Zhuoguang Technology.

On the one hand, it was because the company belonged to his brother. Luo Yi still couldn't understand how Luo Ming, who had some social anxiety, could have founded such a big company.

On the other hand, Zhuoguang Technology has appeared in the news too frequently during this period. Luo Yi and Luo Fei are not the kind of people who like to show off, and no one in their school knows that they are Luo Ming's younger siblings. But they can see reports about Zhuoguang Technology in the news every few days, so it is hard not to be curious.

After Luo Yi came to Zhuoguang Technology, Luo Ming directly handed him to his secretary Li Yan, asking Li Yan to take him around the company while he went to Zhuoguang Entertainment.

At this moment, Chen Junmiao and Su Qing have already sent out the press release and are buying hot searches!
Seeing Luo Ming coming, Chen Junmiao stopped the work in his hands, turned around and greeted Luo Ming.

Luo Ming nodded and asked, "Miao Miao, has the press release been sent out?"

"Don't worry, boss. It has been sent out. Once the purchased trending search arrives, it should be able to go up quickly."

"That's fine, Su Qing. It's almost time for your animation team to start producing 'Ne Zha'." Luo Ming changed the subject.

Su Qing was stunned when she heard this, and asked tentatively: "Boss, don't we have to wait until "The Return of the Great Sage" is over before we start production?"

"What are you waiting for? You don't think that 'The Return of the Great Sage' will lose money, do you?"

“That’s not the case. I just feel that The Monkey King: Hero is Back may not make much money and will not bring much benefit to the company.”

"Stop, stop, stop!" Luo Ming interrupted Su Qing and said, "Whether you make money or not is not something you should consider. Besides, the company doesn't lack this little profit.

I know you've been worried about the performance of The Return of the Great Sage these days, but you can't delay for too long. You should start working from next week."

Since Luo Ming had said so, Su Qing naturally would not refuse. She asked tentatively, "Boss, how much is the investment for Necromancer?"

In its previous life, "Ne Zha" was produced by 1600 co-investors with a total investment of 6000 million.

The effect produced with 6000 million yuan is already very good, but occasionally you can still see where the funds are insufficient.

Since we have to do it in this life, we must not be hindered by funding issues.

Thinking of this, Luo Ming said directly: "It's still a 100 million investment. Even if you can't build enough, I can add more."

"That's enough! One hundred million is enough! Don't worry, boss. We will do our best to complete Necromancer."

Luo Ming nodded, turned and left.

Around 10 a.m., the hot searches bought by Chen Junmiao began to take effect. As long as you opened the social media platform, you could see the relevant press releases for "The Return of the Great Sage".

First of all, I would like to congratulate "The Monkey King: Hero is Back" for becoming the number one in the first-day box office history of domestic animated films.

This press release was purchased by Chen Junmiao with great care. Nothing can compare to data. Only the most authentic data can attract the attention of passers-by and make everyone think that this movie is amazing.

Then there was a discussion on the plot of "The Return of the Great Sage" and some film reviews.

As we all know, mindless blackening is whitewashing, and mindless whitewashing is also blackening.

If you really want to promote a movie, you can't just say good things throughout the review. The ratio of good to bad words should be controlled at 82 or 73. Chen Junmiao has been in the entertainment industry for so many years and has handled many similar incidents for Lin Shuwen. Naturally, he knows what to do. The press releases Chen Junmiao buys are also of this type.

Thanks to this operation, "The Return of the Great Sage" has received rave reviews online.

At this point, Zhuoguang Entertainment no longer needs to control the remaining comments. It is only responsible for maintaining order and allowing netizens to speak freely.

But as public opinion fermented, a hot search term that Chen Junmiao had not expected became a hot search on Weibo.

#The Return of the Great Sage: Hunger Marketing#
When Chen Junmiao saw this entry, he was a little unresponsive at first.

The main reason was that she had never heard of linking movies with hunger marketing.

Chen Junmiao immediately clicked on this hot search term, and then he knew what netizens were complaining about.

The filming rate of "The Monkey King: Hero is Back" was too low, and its online reputation was so good that many people went to buy tickets, only to find that they were hard to come by!
Many netizens complained on Weibo that tickets for "The Return of the Great Sage" were too difficult to buy.

Those who have bought tickets or have already watched "The Return of the Great Sage" are frantically showing off their ticket stubs to show their presence.

Many people like to show off themselves, especially when they like to show off something that others don’t have.

For example, right now, many people on the Internet are saying that they can’t buy tickets for “The Return of the Great Sage”.

Correspondingly, there will definitely be some people who have already seen it and come out to say that they have seen it and it is very good, and they suggest that everyone continue to grab it.

I have experienced something that others cannot experience, and suddenly I feel it tastes better.

What's more, "The Return of the Great Sage" is an excellent drama in all aspects, especially after Luo Ming spent 1 million yuan. Except for the old-fashioned plot, "The Return of the Great Sage" has almost no other obvious shortcomings.

Besides, the plot is old-fashioned, which is not entirely a disadvantage in a sense.

In addition, as soon as Chen Junmiao’s press release was sold today, word of mouth for “The Return of the Great Sage” has begun to ferment.

Due to various factors, netizens who failed to buy tickets are becoming more and more anxious.

As a result, some netizens became angry and started to complain about this matter online, which led to the emergence of this hot search term.

"It's weird. Tickets for other movies are freely available, but why is there no ticket for 'The Return of the Great Sage' in every cinema?"

"I'm speechless. Will these cinemas make money? Why are there so few screenings for movies with such high attendance rates?"

"There are indeed too few screenings. The theater near my house only shows The Monkey King: Hero is Back twice a day, and the first one is at 9 a.m. Don't even mention me! My son, who is in the fourth grade this year, won't even get up at 9 a.m."

"It's the same with the two cinemas near my home. There are no films scheduled at all. It's a pity that I can't watch anything even if I want to."

"I found that the theaters invested by Penguin have scheduled quite a lot of screenings for Monkey King. You can go to Penguin and try it."

"What the above person said is right. I bought tickets today at the cinema invested by Penguin."

Chen Junmiao looked at the netizens' replies and sighed, "I really admire Mr. Luo. When this hot search term came out, "The Return of the Great Sage" really had the right time, place, and people. The box office of a movie is often linked to the right time, place, and people."

"Mr. Chen, what do you mean?" Su Qing asked curiously.

"Take 'The Return of the Great Sage' for example! Mr. Su, at this stage, do you not have much hope for domestic animated films, and think they are not as good as foreign animated films?"

Su Qing nodded, this is an objective fact.

"In this case, when audiences walk into the cinema, their psychological expectations are not particularly high. If 'The Monkey King: Hero is Back' is strong in all aspects, it will be easier for them to meet their expectations. When they watch the movie, they will think 'The Monkey King: Hero is Back' is better. This is the right time."

"What about the locals and people?"

"The advantage is that The Monkey King: Hero is Back is really good! Especially the last scene where the stone is melted into armor and the flames are swung into robes. It is so fascinating that the audience is completely captured.

As for the topic of man and nature, this is the hot search. This hot search has further increased the audience's desire for "The Return of the Great Sage". At least in the next half month, the audience will be more inclined to buy movie tickets for "The Return of the Great Sage". As long as the screening is scheduled, "The Return of the Great Sage" will definitely take off. "

In fact, Su Qing didn't sleep for several hours last night because of the success of "The Return of the Great Sage". After listening to Chen Junmiao's words, Su Qing became even happier.

Su Qing was happy, but on the other hand, some people were miserable!
Today, except for the theaters invested by Penguin, the rest of the theaters have been having a huge headache these two days.

Scheduling films is a technical job for theaters, but no one has the ability to predict the future. They can only rely on various data, early popularity, etc. to make an estimate to decide on the initial scheduling.

There is actually nothing wrong with this. After all, those highly popular bad movies had very high box office in the first few days, and only showed signs of decline when their reputation plummeted.

Take Luo Ming’s previous life’s "Detective Chinatown 3" for example. A bunch of people criticized "Detective Chinatown 3" as a bad movie, but it did not affect the box office revenue of 12 billion from the first day to the third day of the Lunar New Year!
