This director only makes bad movies

Normally, when you invite reporters over, you have to give red envelopes.

This is already an industry practice.

You don’t need too many red envelopes, just what you feel is enough. After receiving the red envelope, reporters will naturally be merciful when writing to avoid embarrassing the interviewer.

But why, after such a long time, the people from Summit Film and Television didn’t express anything at all.

The reporters present were all in a strange state.

In front of them, Xu Nan and Liu Yang had finished moving the tables, chairs and benches and were about to leave. Finally, a reporter couldn't stand it anymore and hurried up to ask.

"Um, Director Xu Nan, have you forgotten something?"

Xu Nan looked around and shook his head: "No, we didn't bring anything when we came here. There's nothing to forget at all."

"Ahem." Liu Yang coughed loudly next to him.

Xu Nan suddenly realized: "Oh, you mean the red envelope."

"No, our Summit Film and Television is so popular right now. It's already great that we don't ask you for interview fees. You still want a red envelope? Are you dreaming?"

The reporter who asked the question opened his eyes wide in disbelief.

Nima, you still want us to pay for the interview?

Yes, there is an interview fee, but usually we take the initiative to interview others.

Now you are inviting us to attend a press conference and asking us for interview fees!

Can I have some face?

Soon, the news of Xu Nan not giving red envelopes spread among all the people attending the press conference.

The reporters, who had been exposed to the cold wind for a long time, were immediately furious.

"Fuck, does this guy even want us to send him news? He doesn't even give him a red envelope."

"The reason for inviting us over was to give us red envelopes. This guy doesn't understand any rules."

"Damn it, write a press release and scold him when you get back."

"Originally, I was still thinking about whether to write more tactfully. Now, I'm so tactful. Let's just scold him to death."

"I have never seen anyone so shameless."

Li Hua was also very angry.

I have never seen such a stingy film producer.

What about your wind-up towel?

It doesn’t cost more than a few bucks.

What we want is not a red envelope, but your sincerity.

Now since you are not sincere, don't blame me for being rude.

Return to the company.

Liu Yang asked worriedly: "Mr. Xu, is it really okay not to give red envelopes to these reporters? According to the usual practice, some should be given."

"No one has ever refused to give, I'm afraid."

"Are you afraid that they will write a press release to discredit us?" Xu Nan asked.

Liu Yang nodded.

Xu Nan smiled: "Then let me ask you, there are two news articles in front of you now. One is about a person who was praised for doing good deeds, and the other is about a person who robbed a bank. Which one will you read first? Which piece of news will you remember more deeply?"

"I"

Liu Yang wanted to say good things to good people, but in the end he couldn't speak.

Because he knows in his heart that although good people and good deeds are more positive, things like robbing banks are actually more eye-catching.

Xu Nan continued: "There is a saying that good things don't go out, but bad things spread thousands of miles."

"Our movie is bad enough anyway. Even if we praise it, no one will believe it. So why not let more people criticize it? This will attract more people to watch it."

Liu Yang nodded thoughtfully.

That seems to be the case.

When the Internet is full of voices saying that this movie is bad, it can actually stimulate the curiosity of some people and prompt them to go to the cinema to watch the movie to see how bad this movie is.

Originally, the movies they shot were not classic blockbusters that could be praised by everyone.

It is better to do the opposite and focus on attracting some people to come and watch. This can be regarded as a feasible business strategy.

The current box office trend of "Along the River on a Sunny Day" perfectly proves this truth.

"Shocked, Xu Nan said that Zhang Yange deliberately chose a similar movie title."

"People across the country, listen, Xu Nan said that the movies he shot are classics, and the reason why the audience finds them unpalatable is because the aesthetic level is too low."

"Xu Nan: If you can't understand my movies, it means your aesthetic level is not good enough."

"Xu Nan said his whole family would die if he plagiarized."

"Use your whole family to die to prove yourself why Xu Nan has reached this point."

"Xu Nan explored Liu Dongdong's fart and bluntly said it was too rubbish and disgusting to him."

"The story Xu Nan and Liu Dongdong have to tell, warning, involves the lower body, so read with caution."

In the hotel, Zhang Yange smiled happily as he looked at Xu Nan's press release that was overwhelmingly popular on the Internet.

The eyes of the masses were sharp.

Even if a director like Xu Nan who relies on evil methods can be proud for a while, he will be despised by everyone in the end.

Public opinion on the Internet clearly proves this point.

At this moment, Zhang Yange's secretary walked in.

"Director Zhang, the statistics are out. Our movie's box office is 60 million."

Zhang Yange smiled: "I know that as long as I make a movie well and with my heart, the audience will be able to feel my sincerity and give me generous rewards."

The box office was 60 million, which was higher than the box office on the first day.

What does this mean?

It shows that this movie is bound to be a big hit.

Zhang Yange was relieved and could go back and have a good sleep.

Before leaving, he asked in passing.

"By the way, what's the box office of "Along the River on a Sunny Day" today?"

The secretary responded with a weird expression: "Uh, close to 20 million!"

"Fuck!"

Zhang Yange was immediately shocked: "The single-day box office of "Along the River on a Qingming Festival" had never exceeded 10 million before, so why did it suddenly jump to 20 million?"

The secretary was silent.

Zhang Yange also knew that he would not get an answer from his secretary.

But he couldn't figure it out.

He made the movie seriously and worked hard to promote it in various ways. At the same time, he also found a way to expose "Along the River on a Qingming Festival", a scam movie that stole their box office.

Just like this, the box office of the movie "Along the River During the Qingming Festival" only increased by a mere 20%.

But Xu Nan casually made a bad movie, a bad movie that everyone on the Internet was criticizing. The box office has bucked the trend and has fully doubled.

what's the situation!

Is there something wrong with the world?
