Huayu: The director just wants to save money

Chapter 615: All the tricks are worked out, but the success is in vain

At this moment, in the plot of "Business Tycoon", Qian Duoduo, played by Da Tiantian, has discovered something wrong.

She had obviously made many attempts to "lose money".

But each of these attempts ultimately turned into an operation of "making money" or "saving money".

Hao Zhuan (Zhou Mo), a new director hired at a huge price, turned out to be a genius.

We provided employees with extra meals, extra equipment, extra benefits, and better remuneration, hoping to directly increase costs. However, we unexpectedly significantly improved the efficiency of filming, and ended up saving even more money.

After waiting for a long time for their own movie to be replaced by other companies, they were ready to use it as a stepping stone, but unexpectedly it unexpectedly brought huge traffic to the movie and saved a lot of publicity expenses.

When Qian Duoduo discovered that something seemed to be wrong, the movie was only a few days away from being released.

"Why is this happening?"

Qian Duoduo couldn't figure it out.

But no matter how confused I was, I didn't have time to think about it.

She had to do something before the movie was taken off the screen.

"No, if I go on like this, how can I make the money? How can I bankrupt the company and then go home to inherit the family property?" Qian Duoduo pondered.

Finally, she came up with a good idea.

She wants to be a mole, backstab her own movie, and help her competitor.

So, Qian Duoduo first signed a gambling contract.

The bet is that ticket sales for its own films will eventually exceed 3 million.

If it works, their company will make a lot of money.

If she failed, she would have to pay a huge sum of money, enough to bankrupt the company.

"How can a movie with a cost of only six or seven million yuan earn three hundred million yuan at the box office?" Qian Duoduo is very confident in his prediction for the movie.

Then, she took an extra sum of money to promote the rival film, making the other party's traffic several times that of her own film.

In the end, she even bought some negative articles about her and Hao Zhuan on the Internet.

Outsiders will think that their company is a makeshift team and the works they produce will definitely be rubbish.

"With these three approaches, I don't believe I won't be doomed."

Qian Duoduo thought happily that she had already begun to fantasize about the days when she would go home and live off her parents.

Of course, Qian Duoduo is still a very kind person.

She knew that her company's first film was the result of all of Hao Zhuan's hard work, and that by doing this, she was actually trampling on Hao Zhuan's work.

Therefore, she made some operations on the company's assets, so that even if the bet failed, Hao Zhuan could still obtain a large sum of funds.

This money can be regarded as Qian Duoduo's apology to Hao Zhuan. It is enough for Hao Zhuan to pursue his dream and make the movie he wants.

"When the time comes, you will pursue your dream of making movies, and I will pursue my dream of staying at home. We will both have a bright future!" Qian Duoduo said happily.

However, there is a saying that man proposes, God disposes.

Qian Duoduo had calculated everything, except that he didn't expect that their first movie would be such a hit.

then……

Ten Days Later (Movie Time).

"What? You said our movie defeated "xx" (the antagonist)?"

In the office, Qian Duoduo was stunned.

She was already enjoying herself so much that she didn't even pay attention to the movie.

I came here on a whim today to take a look at the company. If the results are too bad, I'll also comfort Hao Zhuan.

Who would have thought that as soon as she sat down, Hao Zhuan gave her big news.

Qian Duoduo had never understood the meaning of the word "outrageous" so clearly as he did at this moment.

She never considered the possibility that her own film would be comparable to "xx".

Why? Is she worthy?
This is like in Journey to the West, the Nine-Headed Insect ordered Benboerba to capture Tang Monk and his disciples.

Everyone knew that this was an impossible feat.

Unexpectedly, after a while, Benboerba actually captured Tang Seng.

It's too ridiculous.

In the cinema, almost everyone smiled knowingly when they saw the surprise on Qian Duoduo's face.

Only in some corners, a few people in the entertainment industry had tense facial muscles.

Wu Baige, Lu Tailang and others: Guess why we are not laughing?
This segment is obviously a replica of the scene when Zhou Mo first debuted.

In the entertainment industry at that time, not many people believed that Zhou Mo could defeat his opponent.

But they won.

And it was a huge victory.

Some viewers thought silently that if someone else filmed this material, the audience might not believe it.

But who made the protagonists Da Tiantian and Zhou Mo?
This is how they got here.

Back to the movie.

Opposite Qian Duoduo, Hao Zhuanzheng said happily: "Boss, the response to our movie is very good this time. The audience, especially the young people, like to watch our movie very much."

Halfway through his words, Hao Zhuan bowed to Qian Duoduo somewhat embarrassedly.

"I'm sorry, boss. I apologize for my arrogance. You are right. We should have more romance movies. If you hadn't insisted on making romance movies, our movies wouldn't have achieved such good results. Today's results are all thanks to you."

Qian Duoduo:......

Meaning, she shot herself in the foot?

Qian Duoduo was just about to slap himself twice when he suddenly remembered something else.

"Even if this is the case, it's not right. Even if our movie is really good, the performance of the rival movie shouldn't be so bad. Why?"

Hao Zhuan knew about this and explained.

"Logically speaking, the performance of the rival film would not be bad, but a few days ago, there was suddenly a lot more publicity about them on the Internet, it was overwhelming.

Many netizens actually do not like such intensive publicity, so they expressed their dissatisfaction on the Internet.

After learning about this, the rival film company did not admit its mistake but directly deleted the post. This later caused dissatisfaction among netizens, and there were more negative reviews for the movie.

As a result, their movie box office was even worse.”

Hao Zhuan also specifically concluded: "If you ask me, this kind of operation is simply digging your own grave, boss, don't you think so?"

Qian Duoduo:......

"Yes, yes."

As soon as these words were spoken, there was laughter in the theater.

On the screen, Qian Duoduo's expression at this moment was really funny.

The contrast of trying every possible means but ultimately failing is vividly reflected in Qian Duoduo.

Zhou Mo gently pinched Da Tiantian's palm.

"Did you hear the laughter of the guys? This is the recognition of you by others."

Da Tiantian's face was red, and I didn't know if she was excited or embarrassed.

Hearing Zhou Mo's question, he just nodded.

Zhou Mo asked again: "So now, do you still think that my estimate of the final box office of the movie is wrong?"

Da Tiantian was silent now.

It can no longer be easily predicted.

What if it's the same as in the movie?
