[Chapter 270.266: Artist's business]
According to the usual practice, if the box office performance on the first day is not good, the subsequent film schedule will drop. On the contrary, if the performance is good, the film schedule will be improved.
One night, Da Peng tossed and turned and did not fall asleep.
He couldn't imagine what would happen if the screening rate was lowered.
Three hundred million, four hundred million?
Knowing that Dapeng was anxious, the next day, Lin Xun made an appointment with the leading actors of the Sewing Machine Band and invited them to dinner.
"Don't worry, this is only the first day. Many viewers are hesitant and haven't watched the movie for the time being. I believe that in a few days, people will watch it after the word-of-mouth has fermented. There is still a long way to go."
"Maybe." Dapeng was not in a high mood, and felt that his tone was low. He didn't want to spoil everyone's happiness, and forced a smile: "It's up to people to make things happen, and it's up to God to plan things. Everything will be fine."
"Come on, let's have a toast!"
"Yes, I trust Director Dapeng." Reba raised his glass and said with a smile, "I also trust Director Lin's vision."
It is impossible for an actor to say that nothing happens after the actor is paid and the filming is over.
Why do you get such a high salary, word of mouth.
Only one film and television drama that is better than the other can you maintain your popularity and reputation.
Otherwise, no matter how popular you are, it will be gone if you pounce a few more times. Who would dare to ask you to film a movie if you are a box office poison.
Actors are the ones who hope that film and television dramas will become popular and sell well more than anyone else.
Reba is no exception.
She has never been idle these days, running publicity everywhere, and posted countless articles on Weibo, just to attract more audiences to the cinema.
In private, she also spends her own money to buy trending searches.
To be honest, he really doesn't have much confidence in Da Peng, but he has confidence in Lin Xun.
This play was recommended to her by Lin Xun. She believed in Lin Xun's vision, and the acting of this play was indeed not bad.
If it weren't for Dapeng's bad reputation, this situation wouldn't have happened.
But she didn't say these words, and there's no need to say them. The performance has been performed. If there is any opinion, it's okay to raise it when the phone is not turned on. At this time, it is completely unreasonable.
"Let's not talk about the box office. Here I would like to thank you, Dapeng. Thank you for asking me to act in this movie. If you have anything to say in the future, just let me know."
Qiao Shan said boldly.
"Ham, what's this called? You're right to support me. I've found several actors in this show but they didn't come. Either they hate the low pay or I hate me. Let's not talk about it. Let's have a good drink tonight."
Maybe it's the last meal, Da Peng thought to himself.
The box office on the first day was not satisfactory, and Lin Xun specially invited him to dinner, probably because he wanted to dismiss him.
There are some things that people don't say clearly, but he should also be aware of them.
At the end of this month, tidy up and resign, everyone looks good.
The market has proved that he is really not suitable to be a director. This time he wasted hundreds of millions of funds and changed his boss, which is not good for him.
Lin Xun drank fruit juice, took a sip, and said to everyone: "There is something I forgot to tell you. I have asked the theater for two days. Tomorrow and the day after tomorrow, our schedule will not change."
"Everyone, don't be idle, go out for a run if you have nothing to do, I have arranged the city tour and so on for you."
"Thank you for your hard work. Don't blame me as a boss for being cruel. I will give everyone red envelopes when the box office sells well."
With a sip of wine in his mouth, Da Peng swallowed hard, his eyes widened: "Really!"
Judging from the ticket sales data, today's box office is a little better than yesterday's, but it's not much better, at most a few million more.
Such an increase cannot improve the film schedule. The only result is that the film schedule will be cut tomorrow, and the box office will drop off a cliff.
Unexpectedly, Lin Xun actually fought for two days. As long as the box office of Sewing Machine Band rebounds greatly in these two days, there is no need to reduce the film schedule in the future, and it is not impossible to even increase it by a few points.
"I can still lie to you."
"Thank you, thank you. I'll drink three cups, and I'll be on tour tomorrow."
The big friend was overjoyed, raised his head and drank a few glasses of white wine, his throat was very hot, and his face turned red.
Lin Xun didn't stop him, these few cups should be drunk by everyone.
The box office of the company's three films, Anti-Drug 2 and Flash Girls, have all risen sharply. Only Sewing Machine Band has touched the edge of being cut off.
In order to lock up Sewing Machine Band's two-day schedule, he paid a price.
That is to suppress the filming of Anti-Drug 2 and Flash Girl for two days, and release the Avengers to take a breather.
Not because of the Sewing Machine band, in a few days, there will be nothing about the Avengers, this Hollywood movie is completely rubbed on the ground.
"Go ahead, I wish you all the best and a big box office hit."
Lin Xun is also betting, betting that the audience's word-of-mouth is fermenting, and more and more people are willing to trust Dapeng and go to the cinema to watch movies.
This movie shouldn't be buried like this.
Da Peng is a talented director and should not be buried.
"Relax, even if the box office is not good, I will still vote for you in the next play, at worst, I will start all over again."
Patting Da Peng on the shoulder, Lin Xun gave him a reassurance.
"Thank you." Da Peng burst into tears and was moved.
Thousands of words were in the wine, and he picked up the bottle and drank another glass. After a while, he couldn't bear it anymore and ran to the bathroom to vomit, and the rest of them followed suit one by one.
Few of the audience were sober. Seeing Reba looking down at her phone, Lin Xun asked, "I'm sorry, but the sudden announcement didn't disturb your schedule."
"Ah, it's okay, I'm very free these days." Reba smiled.
Lin Xun turned his head and glanced, "You still need to ask your boss for leave if you are free."
On the WeChat page, Reba kept sending Yang Mi an emoji with clasped hands.
"It's just like that, it's really nothing." Reba laughed dryly, "I don't want to go to any reception, I might as well run a publicity campaign when I have that time."
Ordinary people have a relaxed time during the holidays, but artists, on the contrary, are busier during the holidays.
It's the Chinese New Year this month, and Lin Xun, a popular actress like Reba, can be counted on how busy she is.
"At this time, your boss Yang still wants you to attend the reception?" Lin Xun poured Reba a glass of warm water, and the two chatted.
