I really don't want to be the top streamer anymore

Yiguo made his attitude very clear in the video.

The one I am most optimistic about is Xu Kong’s new movie.

There is no way. Xu Kong’s previous battle record can be checked, which makes it difficult to ignore.

Of course, in comparison, the other two films actually have some chances.

After all, the investment is not small, and the cast and crew are there. Judging from the trailer, the subject matter also seems to be quite competitive.

But overall it collides with Xu Kong's "Infernal Affairs", so it doesn't have much chance of winning.

It depends on how many audiences it can attract and whether the final box office is too bad.

……

"It can be seen that Changyun Film and Television's "Young People Have No Troubles" is a fantasy feature film."

"From the trailer that has been released so far, it seems to be an adventure-oriented film. This is indeed a good subject for promoting newcomers. Of course, it can be seen that Changyun Film and Television is quite concerned about this newcomer named Guo Zirui."

“The cast is so strong, but the stage is almost built just for him.”

"It all depends on whether this newcomer is truly worthy of the company's training. Such a starting point is relatively rare in the entire entertainment industry."

After Yiguo gave his box office prediction for "Infernal Affairs", he began to discuss two other films released during the same period.

"My current box office forecast is that it will be between 10 billion and 20 billion."

"Of course, this is assuming that the entire movie, including Guo Zirui, performs normally."

"If the main character doesn't act well and makes people feel out of place, then this kind of fantasy theme is undoubtedly fatal."

……

"In addition, the last thing we want to talk about is Ping Ye's new work "Starry Sky"."

"I don't think I need to introduce Ping Ye's name in detail."

"I have also made special video analyses of his previous two films, especially his debut. If you are interested, you can check it out yourself."

"In short, Ping Ye's style is indeed more like that of a literary and artistic film."

"Although his previous films were not romance-themed, the main stories were still about love."

"But his style is not very similar to some traditional so-called art films or commercial films."

"You might think of Xu Kong's "Sweet Honey", but it's a completely different style."

"Ping Ye's films are very selective with their audiences. Sometimes, just one shot or one line can make people fall in love with them."

“So the box office performance of his first two films was not that high.”

"This time, I feel like if we perform well, we can probably get a box office of 1 billion?"

"It's normal to fail if the performance is not good."

……

Although Yiguo is just a self-media blogger.

But in fact, many people in the industry will watch her own videos.

Especially things like box office predictions and related analysis.

Strictly speaking, it is still quite meaningful for reference.

Especially as Yiguo's fan base grew in size and influence, she also got some gossip and inside information that she had not been able to get before.

The accuracy of the prediction becomes more and more accurate.

Of course, it’s not that there have been no failures.

The most recent one was during the Spring Festival, regarding "Operation Red Sea".

She herself did not expect that a military-themed movie could win the Spring Festival box office championship.

All she could say was that she had overestimated Xu Kong as much as possible, but she still failed to make an accurate prediction.

……

"You don't really take what Iguo said as the correct answer, do you?"

"She's just a clown!"

At this time at Changyun Film and Television, two young actors were chatting.

One of them just finished watching Yiguo’s latest May Day prediction video.

He heard the sound coming from beside him, but didn't take it too seriously.

In fact, this person was previously criticized by Yiguo in a video for his poor acting skills and was not suitable to be an actor.

Then I started to hate the other person.

Both of them starred in the company's soon-to-be-released film "Young People Don't Have Any Troubles".

Although they are newcomers who joined after Changyun Film and Television was established.

But he is not completely a newcomer. He has produced some works in the past.

This movie is the first work that the two have participated in since joining the new company.

Of course, everyone is paying close attention.

……

"No big deal."

"Didn't President Zhu say that our new movie will definitely be the box office champion during the May Day holiday?"

After turning off the video, the young actor answered.

As for the actress who just complained about Yiguo, she couldn't help but say:

"Then you might as well believe the video just now..."

She knew it very well.

Although it may not be as accurate as what Igor said.

But at the same time, it is extremely difficult to defeat Xu Kong.

Relying on a newcomer to compete with the movie headed by two Hong Kong movie emperors, which was written and directed by Xu Kong himself.

It's really too fanciful.

……

"Xiao Mian, what do you think?"

Huang Zexuan was confused and asked subconsciously.

Mu Mian rolled her eyes.

It seems a bit inconsistent with her cute style.

"I see with my eyes!"

In fact, after Mu Mian terminated his contract with the company, he wanted to join Fengge.

She really admired Xu Kong.

I have watched and listened to many of the director's film and television works, as well as the songs he wrote, many times.

Although Feng Ge recruited a large number of new people, she was still eliminated because she did not meet the requirements.

In the end, in a fit of anger, he ran straight to the rival Changyun Film and Television.

……

"I'm telling you, you're just too honest."

"Didn't I tell you at that time to take the initiative to fight for it?"

"If you do that, maybe you will be the male lead in this movie."

Mu Mian said to the boy with some disappointment.

In her opinion, there was nothing special about the young newcomer named Guo Zirui.

Although Huang Zexuan looks a little silly.

But it is much stronger than the other side.

"I fought for it..."

Huang Zexuan retorted in a low voice.

"fart!"

"With your personality, you are not suitable for the entertainment industry."

"In our line of work, we have to fight for and rob ourselves."

"Why are you being so humble? How confused are you?"

……

Huang Zexuan, as usual, could only remain silent.

Mu Mian felt angry when he saw the cowardly look on his friend's face.

"I don't even know what to say to you."

"Forget it. Have you told your agent what you were told to do?"

"It just so happens that the company has approved a lot of film promotion funds. You can at least be considered male...male number nine!"

"And you're one of the company's own artists. When they're marketing for Guo Zirui, they'll even include you."

……

Huang Zexuan: "I said it, but my agent said it's impossible..."

Mu Mian was speechless.

"But you can take us along when the movie goes on tour."

Hear the supplement after this.

Mu Mian's expression looked a little better.

"Forget it. We are just newcomers after all. It's not bad to be able to follow the roadshow..."

At this point, she suddenly remembered something and began to speak:
"When we are in public, we must keep our distance, otherwise if some rumors come out, it will affect my future development."

Huang Zexuan nodded in agreement. But after a while, the girl seemed a little embarrassed and added:
"But we are still good friends privately."

"Let's go. I'll treat you to something delicious later."

……

Yiguo’s video is like a fuse.

In fact, there are some similar film and television self-media and bloggers.

Most of them have some relevant cooperation with some film and television companies to varying degrees.

Although I don’t accept every promotion from the other party.

But it is certainly impossible to offend someone right away.

Yiguo is a special case because she does not accept any film or television promotion related offers.

Moreover, he has been able to reach his current size by focusing on telling the truth in his videos.

Although many netizens were more optimistic about Xu Kong’s new movie before.

But no so-called film and television blogger with a large number of fans has come out to say this.

Now Yigo directly predicts that "Infernal Affairs" will be a hit, while criticizing the other two movies.

Later, many film and television bloggers decisively chose to join the group.

Anyway, as long as there are more people, no one will blame themselves.

Many people think this way.

……

"These film critics and internet celebrities, they know nothing!"

"All they do is lick Xu Kong all day long, as if Xu Kong or Feng Ge can give them money just because of this?"

"This is fucking sick!"

At this time in Changyun Film and Television, the floor of Zhu Changyun's office was a mess.

He had obviously just had a terrible tantrum.

He was still cursing.

"Boss Zhu, the key thing now is to do some relevant public relations work."

Lu Hanwen couldn't help but remind him.

I have to say, ever since I followed Zhu Changyun out.

The original Mr. Zhu, who was always in control and seemed unperturbed by fame or disgrace, now has his filter completely shattered.

He is just an ordinary film and television blogger. Is it worth Zhu Changyun to be so angry?

Moreover, he was in a hurry at this moment, which made the confidence that Zhu Changyun had shown before seem like a joke.

After all, lies don't hurt, the truth is the sharpest knife.

……

"Just watch and deal with it."

"If possible, sue that guy called Yiguo."

"I want to let her know that she should not just keep talking nonsense and trying to attract attention all day long."

Zhu Changyun spoke.

However, Lu Hanwen just nodded and didn't say much.

In fact, he knew Yiguo.

The other party has been engaged in film and television self-media for a long time.

He is one of the oldest film and television bloggers.

To be able to reach its current size and scale, we have had a lot of dealings with these film and television companies.

So there is no need to worry about being sued.

Besides, even if I sue this time, it probably won’t have much effect.

Let’s not talk about whether we can win or not.

Even if you win, you won't get any substantial benefits.

The video has already been circulated widely, and public opinion has already been stirred up. Taking the video down will not change anything.

What's more, the whole process will definitely take a long time.

By that time, the May Day period will probably have been over for who knows how long.

It's a sheer waste of time and resources, a thankless task.

But Zhu Changyun was angry, and Lu Hanwen knew it was best to go along with him.

……

"By the way, what is Huayuan's reaction?"

Zhu Changyun couldn't help but ask.

Because they are not the only ones affected this time.

The new movie directed by Ping Ye from Huayuan is also a victim.

At least there is definitely a problem in public opinion.

The bad box office performance is a big deal for any movie that has not yet been released.

But Lu Hanwen shook his head.

“They didn’t react.”

Zhu Changyun was stunned for a moment.

Then I couldn't help but start thinking.

A large company like Huayuan must have its own very complete way of handling this minor public relations crisis.

But why is there no action yet?

Could it be that there are other considerations involved?

Lu Hanwen also reminded:

“I don’t know what they are thinking.”

"There has been no action behind the scenes, and openly, not even a single statement has been posted from the official account."

Zhu Changyun pondered for a while:
"Just keep an eye on them and wait a day. If they still don't take action, just ignore them and we will handle it according to the normal public relations process."

After Zhu Changyun calmed down from his anger, he regained some of his rationality.

It was given a relatively normal way of handling it.

……

But the two of them probably would never have thought of it.

In fact, it is far less complicated than you think.

The reason why Huayuan did not take any action this time.

Just watching various bloggers and netizens frantically criticizing their new movie.

These are purely internal issues of the company.

"Has Pingye not dealt with it yet?"

Li Wanshu looked at his assistant and asked.

The other person nodded.

"Well, it is said that Director Ping Ye believes that the outcome will be revealed once the movie is released, so there is no need to pay attention to those comments now."

……

Li Wanshu couldn't help but curse:
"Isn't this pure idiocy?!"

Movies are not that simple, at least the film industry is not that simple.

Why do some movies cost less to produce than to promote them?

This is because public opinion is very important in many cases.

Now that so many people are pessimistic about the film, the box office will definitely be affected.

And Ping Ye’s choice was to just ignore it?

Outrageous!

……

The key point is that he was originally opposed to Ping Ye's film being released on May Day.

The other party insisted on his own way and even chose to go to the chairman of the company.

He knew that Ping Ye had a special relationship with the chairman.

But unexpectedly, the film was finally given full responsibility to Ping Ye.

It is true that he is a film director, but how could he possibly do all the professional work related to promotion, distribution and operation just by doing it casually?

Of course, there were some people who couldn't help but laugh silently because of anger.

Li Wanshu was also somewhat relieved.

Maybe it was right not to hold myself accountable.

Otherwise, he and Ping Ye would probably have some conflicts again.

……

"Xu Kong must beat this guy into submission!"

"Oh shit!"

Li Wanshu couldn't help but start to surrender to the enemy.
