The program team lost contact, and the desert island live broadcast reversed the character design

On the short video platform, the topic of street interviews mentioned the Spring Festival movies:

"Which movie do you want to see most?"

""wreath"."

"Of course it's Su Zhe."

"When I go to the cinema, I only watch Su Zhe."

In surveys conducted on various forums, "Wallen" undoubtedly occupies the title of "Most Watched Movie During the Spring Festival".

Even though the publicity cost of "Wallet" was not high, and was even at the bottom in the same period, it made it impossible for other movies to attract the audience's attention no matter how much money they spent.

In this situation, the most anxious person is Zhai Xiaowen.

The war epic he has been preparing for two years, "The Battle of the King Kong River", which is also a main theme movie, has already been scheduled to be released during this Spring Festival.

Relying on his appeal as a famous director, no matter how strong Su Zhe's appeal is, there are still some media and audiences paying attention to him and giving him some space.

But the problem is that the themes of the two films are too similar, so they will naturally compete with each other for traffic and audiences.

The popularity of "The Garland" means that the future of "The Battle of the King Kong River" is bleak.

This made the producer very anxious. As a war film, "Battle of the King Kong River" had a very high investment, and if it flopped, all the money would be lost.

He couldn't help but suggest:

"How about we withdraw the schedule? I heard that some movies have already been withdrawn."

Zhai Xiaowen became anxious when he heard this. As a veteran and famous director, he announced the Spring Festival schedule early, but was forced to change the schedule by a junior. Where would his face be?

"No! We set the release date first, and The Wreath will be released later. Why should we give up the release date?"

The producer was very frustrated:

"My great director Zhai, just because he has so many fans and high traffic, he is now the number one star in China!"

"Is there still justice?" Zhai Xiaowen was furious. "Movies are art, how can they be tainted by these traffic and fans!"

Also participating in the discussion in the conference room were the leading actors of "The Battle of the King Kong River".

They were quite calm about losing to Su Zhe - it was not shameful.

Instead, they were more afraid that the film would flop and affect their careers due to the impact of "Hua Lu". So they all advised Zhai Xiaowen:

"Director Zhai, don't be angry. Who made Su Zhe have so many fans?"

"Yes, in the age of traffic, there is nothing we can do. We have to withdraw the film if necessary."

Cheng Yongjun, who plays the third male lead, almost became the male lead in Su Zhe's sketch "Not Short of Money", but quit the role to star in this movie, forcing Su Zhe to perform on the Spring Festival Gala alone.

(It’s been so long, I’m afraid you’ve forgotten this person)

Logically speaking, what he is most worried about is that "The Battle of Changjin River" will flop, which would make him a complete clown and become the material for ridicule by marketing accounts.

But he was very calm, looking at the group of insects in front of him talking about the "traffic era" and "fan economy", and sneered in his heart:

"It's as if Su Zhe's success depends on fans and traffic."

Why do so many viewers pay attention to Su Zhe's new works? Isn't it because he has made excellent movies one after another?

What's even more terrifying is that Su Zhe is too careful about his reputation and would never make a cameo appearance in a bad movie or deceive his fans for money or so-called favors.

Fans will never buy tickets and find out it’s a bad movie, with Su Zhe appearing in only a few clips, and can only console themselves by saying it has a lot of philosophy.

This kind of accumulated trust is extremely terrifying and is often the symbol of a superstar of an era.

And in the mouths of these people, it seems that Su Zhe is only good at attracting fans and creating hype.

What made Cheng Yongjun even more helpless was that the people in front of him did not say these words to belittle Su Zhe.

These words are what they really think; this understanding is their outlook on life.

This suddenly reminded Cheng Yongjun of the time when he met Su Zhe during the rehearsal of "Not Short of Money".

At that time, he thought that as a big star and big boss, Su Zhe would be very busy, and even if they met, he would only paint a rosy picture for him, telling him how much money he could make after becoming famous and encouraging him to work hard.

But Su Zhe always rehearsed until very late and only discussed the lines of the sketch with him, as if they were the purest creators.

Pure, as if there were no interference from fame or fortune when they were rehearsing.

"wrong."

Cheng Yongjun suddenly remembered that Su Zhe had talked to him about fame and fortune:

“Don’t think too much, just do your work well, and everything will be fine.”

At that time, Cheng Yongjun felt that Su Zhe was very naive. Perhaps his talent was too difficult to conceal, and he had never felt that his talent was not appreciated. It was too easy for him to become famous, so he thought all his success was taken for granted.

It seems that as long as you do it seriously, your work will speak for itself.

But Cheng Yongjun has been working at the bottom for many years. He has seen many talented people, but he could only leave sadly.

He knew that the world was not like that, and the entertainment industry was even less like that.

Opportunity is the most important thing in this circle.

So, he betrayed Su Zhe just to seize this opportunity.

Now he regretted it, not because he regretted betrayal, but because he regretted——

How can you create good works with these insects?

"Don't withdraw the schedule." Cheng Yongjun finally expressed his opinion, "As long as the quality is good, the Spring Festival schedule can accommodate two blockbusters."

No one looked at him, and no one listened to his opinions.

Because he is the smallest star with the fewest fans, he was "lucky" to be promoted by Zhai Xiaowen.

Just as his opinions were never respected throughout the filming process.

They would never be like Su Zhe, who discussed the lines of "Not Short of Money" with him and even argued until they were red in the face - it was too low-profile.

For some reason, Cheng Yongjun thought of the past again.

……

Under Cheng Yongjun's silent gaze, everyone reached a consensus - not to withdraw the film.

It’s not because they finally respected Cheng Yongjun, but because the withdrawal of the film was very damaging to the film——

Not only did all the early publicity costs go to waste, but it also left potential audiences with the impression that "the quality is poor and we dare not release it."

This means that most of the withdrawn films are unable to achieve satisfactory box office results. Thinking about it afterwards, it would have been better if they had just gritted their teeth and released them in the first place.

Moreover, "The Battle of the King Kong River" also has some confidence - even if it cannot surpass Su Zhe and cannot win the box office championship, the box office of the runner-up will usually not be low.

They insisted on releasing the film as scheduled!

However, apart from "The Battle of Changjin River", other movies do not have this confidence.

Two films were announced to be withdrawn from the schedule, and other films also took the initiative to cut their publicity budgets. Anyway, they couldn't compete with "Wallet", so they might as well save some costs.

In fact, according to the convention of the entertainment industry, when encountering such a popular movie, if you can't criticize the movie, you can criticize the creators.

A business worth billions can be considered a high-end business war, enough to make people do whatever it takes.

But the problem is that Su Zhe can’t be slandered!

Although Su Zhe has been recording programs abroad recently, his reputation as the "Captain of China" has been very successful in Japan and South Korea, which has given him a lot of luster.

As a result, thousands of people avoided "The Garland", which stood out during this Spring Festival.

Just waiting for release.
