This director only makes bad movies

After the movie was released, Xu Nan has been paying attention to the box office situation.

Lin Ziyi is as concerned about the movie's profits as he is. Her current situation is very delicate. If she causes losses to the company due to wrong decisions, it will easily affect her authority.

Fortunately, the feedback from the data is good. The movie's attendance rate is not low and no worse than other movies. The single-day box office is about two to three million, so the theaters do not suffer.

If you include the shares held by Nanhai Film and Television, Emperor Cinemas actually made a profit this time.

No one in the company was gossiping. This decision was not considered a failure, nor was it a success.

"President, this is an invitation to the premiere of "The Hobbit". Who do you plan to let go?"

The secretary came over and brought over an invitation.

This kind of social activities usually involve the company's executives, but after thinking about it, Lin Ziyi took the invitation.

"I'll go in person this time."

"OK."

The secretary handed the invitation to Lin Ziyi, and Lin Ziyi decisively called Xu Nan.

"The Hobbit premiere, are you going or not?"

Movie premiere?

Xu Nan raised his eyebrows. He was familiar with movie premieres, but the premiere of "The Hobbit" was different.

He's preparing to work on "The Hobbit" and you want me to go to the premiere?

This is tantamount to poaching someone else's corner and then showing off in front of others. It's pure yellowish behavior.

"Isn't this good?" Xu Nan replied.

"It's up to my mother-in-law to tell you whether you want to go or not." Lin Ziyi said simply: "We've already made a copycat movie, so what are you afraid of?"

"Then I'll go."

Xu Nan decisively agreed.

He was also somewhat curious about the movie premiere in the United States, and also wanted to see how the filming of "The Hobbit" was going.

In his previous life, he had watched "The Hobbit", but he had long forgotten all the content. He only remembered that there was a dragon named Smaug in it, and he was killed in the end.

Now it’s not bad to have the opportunity to watch movies for free. By the way, I can also get in touch with colleagues in the United States to see if there are any opportunities for cooperation.

The next day, Xu Nan got dressed and met Lin Ziyi to attend the premiere of "The Hobbit".

The scene was very lively, with many celebrities and industry insiders present. The embarrassing thing was that Xu Nan didn't know many people. At most, he had a certain impression of a few of them who were famous.

His main focus is on the domestic entertainment industry. Although he has been strengthening his understanding of the American entertainment industry recently, it is still not in-depth enough.

"That's James, the director of The Hobbit."

Lin Ziyi said something, but it didn't take him to tell Xu Nan to recognize James. After all, he often watched news about "The Hobbit" during this period, and he remembered James' appearance very clearly.

He has a high nose and blue eyes, a slightly serious face, and talks and laughs naturally with the guests.

At this moment, Xu Nan couldn't help but have a thought - she didn't know what his expression would be like after knowing what he had done.

Lin Ziyi took Xu Nan up to say hello. James was very polite to Lin Ziyi, but Xu Nan was ignored the whole time.

After a brief chat, the two of them took their seats. Soon, the theater darkened and the movie started to show.

It starts with the Fox Film and Television logo, and then comes the main film of "The Hobbit."

Xu Nan cheered up and watched the movie seriously.

I have to say that this movie is really wonderful. The exquisite transformation, the climax of the plot, and the superb acting skills of the actors all combine to form a wonderful movie.

Especially after the dragon Smaug appeared, Xu Nan even heard someone in the theater scream in fear.

This special effect is so realistic, the dragon on the screen is just like the real thing, giving people unparalleled pressure.

Naturally, after the protagonist completely killed the dragon Smaug with a black arrow, Xu Nan naturally breathed a sigh of relief, and his intense emotions were released.

In the end, the dwarves successfully restored their country, and at the end, Bilbo even interacted with the Lord of the Rings.

"Wow, wow, wow."

At the end of the movie, the guests present applauded in unison, and the mood was very enthusiastic.

Xu Nan also applauded. This movie is so exciting. Unless it encounters force majeure, it will definitely be a box office hit.

James came on stage proudly and began to tell interesting stories about his filming of the movie. The guests present were also very considerate, holding him at the center like a star holding the moon, and they all found different angles to praise the movie.

The Lord of the Rings series has been rebooted, and "The Hobbit" is so exciting. There is no doubt that there will be a sequel to this movie, and many people here want a piece of the action.

At this time, Xu Nan received a call from film critic Martin.

"Boss, I have already written the film review. Let's take a look at the content. If there is no problem, I will send it out now."

Xu Nan lowered his head to look at the screen of his mobile phone. The title of Martin's film review was simple: "The Hobbit is a rubbish movie, a bunch of answers without any highlights."

The culture here in the United States is more direct, unlike the domestic culture which is more subtle. Here you just scold directly, the more direct the better.

Xu Nan read this movie review as quickly as possible.

Well, it's very well written and very exciting. This is the effect I want.

He quickly sent a message back to Martin: "Very good, send it out immediately. Don't forget what I told you."

"No problem, boss." Martin quickly replied.

He is a very professional film critic and will do whatever his boss says, as long as he is paid enough.

After making sure that his film review would satisfy his boss, Martin immediately sent it out.

Xu Nan followed Martin's account, and when he saw the movie review posted, the corner of his mouth curled up into a smile.

It happened that at this time, James passed by Xu Nan, and he immediately stood up with an exaggerated tone, just like a fanatical fan.

"Director James, this movie "The Hobbit" is really wonderful. It is the best movie I have ever seen, bar none. You are simply a genius."

Lin Ziyi gave Xu Nan a strange look.

Why is this guy's tone a little strange? It feels like in that special little movie, Huang Mao loudly said to the sufferer that your wife is excellent.

She quickly shook her head, this must be an illusion.

James was a little surprised to be praised in this way, but after discovering that the speaker was an inconspicuous yellow-skinned boy, he didn't think much about it, thinking that he was a fan of his.

This was not the first time he encountered this situation. He nodded slightly and replied: "Thank you."

After saying that, James left directly. He's just a fan, so it's good to be able to answer him. The movie has been released, and he still has a lot of things to be busy with.

After finally getting rid of the congratulatory guests, James returned to the backstage. At this moment, his assistant came over.

"Director James, something is wrong."
