Chapter 782

Wu Yusen was also in a very upset mood, so he blurted out this sentence, which can be regarded as implying that the failure of this film was not solely due to himself.

But he didn't expect Wang Zhongjun to reply immediately, and the atmosphere became a little subtle.

Wu Yusen's face was livid. In the past few decades, apart from the unpleasant experience in Hollywood, there was not a single company whose boss did not try to please him in various ways.

Don't talk about hating him, it's too late to win him over!

Next to him, Kang Pei watched the play with great interest, and now "Tai Ping Wheel" is of no value to him. Anyway, the overseas copyright is sold, and the guarantee is also sold, making a small profit.

It seems that Wu Yusen's impression in the hearts of the audience is too bad, otherwise the early box office would be unreasonable.

Like Wang Zhongjun, a director who rushes to the street is of little use to Kang Pei.

Ordinary potential directors may not have a chance to come back after they hit the street, because unlike these famous directors, they think highly of themselves, often take it for granted, and are often too egoistic, unwilling to compromise for the market.

Because even if they rush to the street, they still don't have to worry about not having a movie to shoot, while the ordinary potential newcomers are more motivated, hardworking, and willing to compromise for the market.

However, Kang Pei will not admit that when he selected the schedule for the movie, after repeated investigations and studies, it was finally set on December 12th, and he dismissed "The Year in a Hurry" which will be released on the 4th.

They didn't care, but Zhang Zhao was going to die in a hurry. The bottom line was that he spent the money. If the box office was too bad, only his family would lose.

Moreover, Kang Pei was so disappointed in Wu Yusen now that he was even beaten by a low-budget movie like "The Year in a Hurry".

"In fact, Wang Xiaoming is also a good actor. After all, he won the Golden Rooster Best Actor back then and was recognized by the audience. This time, he may not perform well. Director Wu is also worried about the film. He is too impatient. We all understand." Zhang Zhao quickly smoothed things over.

It was fine if Zhang Zhao didn't say anything, but Wu Yusen's face turned ugly once he finished speaking.

Wang Xiaoming used to be one of the best Mesozoic actors in the mainland on the big screen. The second actor in "The Wind" and the first actor in "Chinese Partners" all performed very well, and the box office was also a hit. Actor of the Golden Rooster, surpassed Chen Kun and Liu Ye, who were the first to make efforts on the big screen at that time, and there is a faint trend of No.1 in the Mesozoic Era.

However, these two films were made by Tang An. Wang Xiaoming performed so well in Tang An's film, and won high box office and won awards. But when it comes to him, the box office hits the street, and the award is also forgotten.

Isn't this still an obvious irony that he is not as good as Tang An in training actors!
Seeing Wu Yusen's expression, Zhang Zhao knew that he had said something wrong, but now he had no time to worry about it, so he quickly changed the subject and started discussing a plan.

"Chairman Kang, Director Wang, the current situation is not good for us. "The Year in a Hurry" is a big hit, and "One Step Away" will follow. If the box office cannot recover as soon as possible, there is no way to make it back. Zhang Zhao said eagerly.

"Is there any good solution for Mr. Zhang?" Kang Pei asked, but he couldn't think of anything to do anyway.

Zhang Zhao pondered for a moment, his mind spinning rapidly, and after a while, he opened his mouth and said, "The attention of "Taiping Wheel" is not as good as "Detective Chinatown 2" and "The Year in a Hurry", we must arouse the attention of the audience." Attention and curiosity, this is the first step and the most important.”

Hearing that Zhang Zhao had an idea, everyone looked at him expectantly, waiting for him to come up with a good solution.

"We need a topic, what is the most popular at the moment, we have to find a way to connect together."

Wang Zhongjun immediately said, "Bundled marketing with "Detective Chinatown 2"? There is nothing to make a fuss about the two films."

Zhang Zhao shook his head, "It's not "Detective Chinatown 2", there is still one person now, as long as there is news about him, it will soon become a hot topic."

Who can overwhelm the limelight of the most popular Chinese New Year movie"

Everyone was a little puzzled, but they quickly realized it.

There is only one person in the film and television industry who can do this.

Kang Pei frowned slightly, "You're talking about Tang An."

"Yes."

Zhang Zhaodao, "Although there is no news related to Tang An right now, as soon as he has something to do, he will soon attract the attention of the audience."

"Then why is it connected with Tang An?" Wang Zhongjun asked immediately.

If Wu Yusen had frequently blasted the media before the release, Tang An would have been more aggressive. But now that the box office of the movie has hit the street, it would be embarrassing to do it again, and the audience would just take it as a joke.

""Operation Red Sea" is a war movie, and "Taiping Wheel" can also be regarded as a war movie, so it is naturally related."

Zhang Zhao directly expressed his thoughts, shifting the focus of publicity from romance films to war films, and pulling Tang An's "Operation Red Sea" to gain popularity.

There is no way to do this, and even a rough plan has been figured out.

The focus of the publicity was changed, and at the same time, some media were found to interview Wu Yusen, mainly about war movies, and then "Operation Red Sea", which is also a war movie, was brought along to let Wu Yusen say something big, and the media also created momentum to make "Taiping Wheel" It blows to the same level as "Operation Red Sea".

Although this cannot completely increase the movie box office, it has at least one more hot spot.

Propagating disaster love has failed, no matter how miserable it is, it will not go anywhere, it is better to change the way of thinking, maybe it will have a miraculous effect.

The few of them talked too closely there, and they all figured out the specific implementation plan and steps, without any estimation of Wu Yusen who was sitting next to them.

It's very unpleasant to be ignored by others, and Wu Yusen feels very aggrieved to try to save Tang An's popularity in order to save his movie.

Wu Yusen opened his mouth, wanting to reject their ideas, but when he thought about his current situation, he still sighed secretly and didn't make a sound.

No matter what, the most important thing for Wu Yusen right now is the box office of "Taiping Wheel".

After the discussion, they talked about the release date of the second part. After all, the box office of the first part is dismal and the reputation is not good, which will definitely affect the second part, and the box office may be even lower.

"How about moving it to June to avoid the summer schedule." Wang Zhongjun suggested.

Originally, they planned to release it in the summer. After all, the Spring Festival is too fast. They have to wait for the movie to be launched on the video website to gather enough viewers to attract the audience who watched the first part on the computer to the cinema to watch the second part.

But as it is now, it would be courting death to go to the summer vacation.

Zhang Zhao denied it, "I think it's better to release it in the summer. The lower part will be affected by the upper part. The box office will definitely not be ideal. No matter what, it won't be worse. It's better to release it in the summer time. After all, it is the best time. , the market is enough, the audience is enough, maybe you can get a piece of cake!"

It sounds nicer to share a piece of cake, but what Zhang Zhao meant was that it’s going to hit the street anyway, so it’s better to find a good schedule and see if you can drink some leftover soup between several blockbuster movies.

If there are no blockbuster movies in the general schedule, the market will not be popular, and "Under the Taiping Wheel" is likely to be uninterested.

If there are blockbuster movies, the schedule is low, and it is easier to be eaten up by one or two blockbuster movies, and there will be no soup at that time.

Kang Pei felt that there was some truth to it. Anyway, there was no hope, so it was better to give it a try.

Avoid the summer file, at most about 1 million at the box office, but switch to the summer file, the box office will always be more than [-] million, and you may be able to drink a few more mouthfuls of soup.

If you break the can and smash it, maybe you can drop a baby.

However, Wu Yusen finally couldn't help but speak.

"I don't think it should be released in the summer. The competition is too fierce. It's better to choose a schedule with less competition."

Ma De, "Red Cliff" was killed by Tang An back then, and this year was swept away by "Detective Chinatown 2", and he had to rely on Tang An's popularity to increase the box office.

Now, he is going to face Tang An again next year. Isn't this sending him in front of Tang An, putting his face close to let him beat him!

Wu Yusen would never agree, it was only three things, he couldn't let Tang An beat him three times, let alone send him to his door to seek death, selling swords?
