The entertainment industry shouldn't be like this

Chapter 63 We Have Been Stolen
Friday, April 7.

"The momentum is really strong! The box office has exceeded 2000 million for two consecutive working days." Producer Dai Shukun said looking at the latest box office rankings.

"Normal, worthy of the quality of the film." Luo Jianzhou said lightly.

What they were talking about was, of course, "Genius Gunner", which topped the box office rankings.

The producer looked at Luo Jianzhou and said with a smile, "Now your evaluation of Wang Wei seems to have changed a lot?"

"Hmph." Luo Jianzhou pouted, but did not refute.

Is not this nonsensical?

Everyone has watched "Genius Gunner", can you have no clues in your heart?
As the old man Charlotte commented - the first work is based on talent, and the second work can better see potential and height.

Luo Jianzhou did not see much talent in Wang Wei's first work, but his potential can really be seen from "Genius Gunner".

Luo Jianzhou's biggest advantage is that he recognizes capable people.

Of course, it's just a recognition. If he really wants to be on an equal footing with him, Wang Wei has to make at least a few blockbuster films.

Moreover, even this well-made low-budget movie is still far away from actually making a summer release.

Luo Jianzhou asked calmly: "I heard that the media under the company have been notified to suppress the word-of-mouth influence of "Genius Gunner"?"

The producer also replied calmly: "Well. After all, next week there will be a film released by our company, and August is the company's main summer schedule this year."

Luo Jianzhou laughed: "Are you still afraid that the popularity of "Genius Gunner" will last until August?"

"Who's to say for sure, anyway, be prepared." The producer shrugged.

"Besides, we are still being polite. The other studios are going to discredit it directly."

Like all potential summer blockbusters, "Genius" inevitably becomes the public enemy of current or upcoming films after its first-day box office release.

As far as the producers know, today and next week, Lianya Entertainment and Pearl Pictures, which have big productions to be released respectively, have invested resources to attack "Genius Gunner".

Oh, he almost forgot that the dozen or so media outlets that Wang Wei wrote to in the afternoon were the natural dark spots of "Genius Gunner".

In other words, the competition facing "Genius Gunner" has just begun.

Luo Jianzhou's tone remained unchanged: "This is the summer vacation!"

The producer nodded and said in the same way: "This is the summer file!"

……

Amidst the emotion between the two, "Genius Gunner" continued to sell well, but the noise in the media suddenly increased.

Facts have proved that there is no perfect movie, as long as you want to find faults, where can't you find loopholes?

Some attacked the ending of the movie - "The forceful Wei Guangzheng at the end lowered the anticipation of the whole movie..."

Some attacked the heroine's design—"Whether intentionally or not, she took advantage of the hero's dream of wanting his mother to live a good life, pulled him into the group, and gave him false hopes. And then? Tell him, I'm sorry not to accompany you Playing because I'm going to be a good person... This is the most disgusting heroine I've ever seen."

Most of them attack movie bugs—"The cheating technique of playing the piano is neither realistic nor brilliant, absurd and ridiculous."

And—"The heroine vomited in the examination room. Could it be that the invigilator is blind? Just let an examinee stick a pen into his mouth and hurt himself?"

At the same time, the praise of "Genius Gunner" in the media, especially the praise of film critics, has inexplicably decreased significantly.

Two days before and after, it seems that the media commented on the same film.

By this time, no matter how dull the crew is, they all know that their film has been targeted.

The day before, Wang Chuanqi, who was laughing so hard that his face was cramping, had a hot face, and immediately called everyone to discuss countermeasures.

After listening to the briefing, Xu Daoxing slapped his head angrily, and reflected: "I was careless, I didn't remind the crew in advance."

"Summer vacation is the most competitive time, and it is the most normal thing to smear each other."

It's hard to blame him.

Dunhuang has not participated in the summer file fight for several years, and the memories of Lao Xu's past experience have been sealed up, and it was not awakened until now when an unexpected situation occurred.

After Lao Wang took over Dunhuang, he only stepped on the trap, and didn't find an opportunity to participate in the summer file; let alone Lao Zhou, he didn't care about the promotion and release of the movie at all.

As for Wang Wei, uh...

In fact, he was also wrong.

Old Xu couldn't help slandering: If it wasn't for the editing of the liver a month before the release, which almost killed them all, and let him rest until the official release, he would not have no sense of crisis.

Old Xu secretly complained to Wang Wei before continuing: "The cruelty of the summer file is that—first of all, the competitors' reactions are very fast; The plan is already in place.”

"Secondly, everyone will invest more resources in the summer. For example, you are especially willing to spend money to buy film critics."

"Well-known film critics won't discredit a good film regardless of their reputation just because they received money, but they can suppress the promotion of the film in disguise by not giving good reviews."

"What's more, if the movie's super-selling momentum is obvious, you must be prepared to be surrounded by everyone, including competitors who will be released next month..."

Now everyone is aware of the seriousness of the problem.

Everyone can see the momentum of "Genius Gunner".

If it's just the dozen or so media outlets on Wang Wei's bar, there's no need to panic at all, and it can even be regarded as a boost to hype.

But if they were encircled and suppressed by the media forces behind the Big Five...

Lao Wang took a deep breath and asked humbly, "Then Lao Xu, what advice do you have?"

Xu Daoxing said directly: "To counterattack, we can only counterattack forcefully."

"Even if it's a weaker scolding, it's better than being scolded one-sidedly."

"And it's going to muddy the waters. In the summer, almost everyone is competing with each other, and it's impossible to unite as one."

Lao Xu shared his experience: "At this time, the money that should be spent must be spent. Let's take film critics as an example. If we don't pay, they will be bought by those who are willing to pay..."

"This is the summer file!"

Lao Wang, who can save, saves, blushes, and nods as if taught.

As for scolding...

All eyes were on Wang Wei.

There is no better candidate than this guy.

Wang Wei sighed: "It's too much, I'm afraid my reputation as a troll will never be washed away."

The others wanted to laugh but didn't dare to laugh, which relieved the tense atmosphere for a moment.

While mourning for his own reputation, Wang Wei took a sip of health-preserving tea with a thermos... with wolfberries.

Looking up, he saw the expressionless Assistant Ding knocking on the door and coming in with a newspaper in his hand.

"What happened again?" Wang Wei felt that there was no bad news that would break his defenses, so he took a sip of tea calmly.

Assistant Ding handed him the newspaper directly.

Wang Wei looked at the title, "Pfft!"

A sip of tea is sprayed out directly.

Day, we planned so much, but someone stole the tower? !
