Entertainment: The opening and the official announcement of the national goddess

Chapter 665 Measure the belly of a gentleman with the heart of a villain
Zhang Xiaodao: "It's a good thing that "Battle of the Red Cliff" has become popular overseas, and it can greatly enhance the confidence of domestic directors to hit the global market."

For Zhang Xiao, the ideal state of "Battle of the Red Cliff" is that the domestic box office hits the street, and the foreign box office sells well. Judging from the current situation, the trend of this movie is really the direction Zhang Xiao hopes.

Yang Mi glanced at him, playful: "You don't have any regrets? This is the work of Hua Yi and Chen Gang!"

Zhang Xiao said lightly: "I haven't put Chen Gang in my eyes for a long time, don't you know, as for Huayi, even if they can make ten "Battle of the Red Cliff", it doesn't matter to us." any threat."

"Honey, what we want to conquer now is the sea of ​​stars, a little Huayi is nothing!"

Yang Mi said: "Okay, Director Zhang has a big heart, but I, a little girl, don't have a big heart like yours."

Zhang Xiao giggled and said, "Who said that, your mind is bigger than mine."

Yang Mi was taken aback for a moment, but she quickly came to her senses and said angrily, "Fuck you, you're not serious."

Jiangnan TV.

Chen Gang, Fa Ge, Liang Chaowei, Jin Chengwu, Zhang Zheng, Liu Yi, Yang Ying and others who had just finished recording a talk show dragged their exhausted bodies back to nine o'clock.

These people are the real protagonists of "Battle of the Red Cliff", and they are also the main force of this film's publicity.

For more than a week, "Battle of the Red Cliff" has been promoted by them, so everyone is exhausted.

Walking into the treasure chest, Chen Gang ordered a table full of meals.

Just about to start eating, Wang Jun's phone call came in.

"Dagang, what are you busy with?"

"Dinning, Mr. Wang, is the overseas box office coming out?" Chen Gang's voice was full of tension and worry.

Now the domestic first-day box office is only 2.8 million, which is still far from Chen Gang's original expectation. If the overseas box office is not good, then the movie will really be completely over.

Wang Jun laughed loudly and said: "Yes, it's out, 9500 million US dollars, "Battle of the Red Cliff" has earned 1.39 million US dollars at the global box office, ranking second in yesterday's box office rankings, only 2000 million away from the champion dollar gap."

"Really?" Chen Gang was pleasantly surprised, but asked in disbelief.

"Of course it's true." Wang Jundao: "You can check it online, "Battle of the Red Cliff" has a freshness rating of 80.00% on Rotten Tomatoes abroad. I believe you know better than me what this means."

Chen Gang slapped his thigh suddenly, and said excitedly: "That's great, that's great."

Wang Jundao: "Da Gang, don't get too excited, whether "Battle of the Red Cliff" will be successful or not depends on the film schedule of the theater."

Chen Gang was taken aback, and said, "Zhang Xiao?"

"No!" Wang Jundao: "Zhang Xiao doesn't care about these things, it is Yang Mi who really leads the overseas filming of "Battle of the Red Cliff". Yang Mi made a phone call to find out."

"If she has the intention of lowering our film schedule, I will immediately go to the Culture Department."

Chen Gang nodded and said, "Okay, I see!"

After hanging up the phone, Chen Gang said with a smile: "Everyone, good news, our overseas box office has won 1.39 million US dollars, and the global first-day box office reached [-] million US dollars, ranking second that day."

"Good!" Everyone was very happy when they heard it.

Yang Ying said: "Director Chen, the box office is so good, why shouldn't we celebrate it?"

Chen Gang nodded and said, "It's true that we should celebrate, but I still have something to trouble you and Liu Fei."

Liu Fei and Yang Ying looked at each other, and asked in unison, "What's the matter?"

Chen Gang said: "The overseas production rights of "Battle of the Red Cliff" are in the hands of Yang Mi, can you give her a call?"

Brother Fa narrowed his eyes slightly when he heard the words, and said, "Director Chen, are you worried that Zhang Xiao will reduce our overseas filming?"

Chen Gang nodded, and said: "You all know the relationship between me and him. "Battle of the Red Cliff" has exploded overseas, and I will gain great fame from it. This is definitely what Zhang Xiao doesn't want to see. If As a result, he reduced the number of films in theaters, and the box office of our film will die."

As Zhang Xiao's year-end friend, Fa Ge was very dissatisfied with Chen Gang's suspicion, and said: "Director Chen, I think you are a little unreasonable, I know Zhang Xiao's temperament very well, he must not be able to do such a thing of."

Chen Gang didn't expect that Brother Fa would defend Zhang Xiao like this, and he was slightly taken aback.

Liang Chaowei was worried that the two would have a conflict, so he hurriedly said with a smile: "It's just a phone call, it's not a big deal, so please do me a favor and ask!"

Yang Ying took out her mobile phone and said, "Okay, then I'll call Mimi now."

Soon, after the phone call passed.

Yang Mi's voice came from the other end of the phone: "Miss Yang, shouldn't you be promoting "Battle of the Red Cliff", why are you free to call me?"

"My dear Mr. Yang, you are powerful now, and the little girl has come to ask for help." Yang Ying said.

"What's wrong? Brother Xiao Ming hit you?"

"Dare he?"

"Then what's the matter to ask me for help?"

"It's about the overseas filming of "Battle of the Red Cliff"."

When Yang Mi heard this, she was silent for a while, and said, "It turns out that Director Chen asked you to be a lobbyist!"

Yang Ying said: "Besides me, there is Feifei, she is beside me."

Yang Mi said: "Tell Chen Gang that we are neither Huayi nor him. We can't do such a despicable thing. It is very rare for "Battle of the Red Cliff" to get a box office of nearly [-] million US dollars without publicity. Yes, it has a very big role in promoting domestic films to go abroad."

"As long as the box office and attendance of "Battle of the Red Cliff" can be maintained, I will not reduce its film schedule, but will increase it."

"What my husband meant was to be impartial, how many films "Battle of the Red Cliff" can get depends on how good it is."

Hearing Yang Mi's words, Chen Gang let out a long sigh of relief.

Fa Ge glanced at him directly, and cursed secretly: "It's really a villain's heart to measure a gentleman's belly!" '

Yang Ying said: "Mimi, thank you and Brother Xiao. After my promotion here is over, I will definitely go to Yuzhou to treat you to dinner."

"You can pull it down!" Yang Mi smiled and said, "You're in Yuzhou, how dare I let you treat me to dinner?"

Next, the two chatted for a few more words before hanging up the phone.

Chen Gang said: "Yang Ying, thank you."

"It's nothing!" Yang Ying shook her head and said, "Even if I don't make this call, Mimi won't lower our screening rate."

Chen Gang smiled brightly and said nothing.

After drinking and eating, everyone went back to their rooms to rest.

Liang Chaowei came to Brother Fa's room and said, "Brother Fa, I feel that you are somewhat dissatisfied with Director Chen. Is it because of Zhang Xiao?"

Fa Ge said: "No, I just can't understand Chen Gang's villainous face. If I hadn't been the protagonist of "Battle of the Red Cliff", I would have left with Teacher Chen and Teacher Li a long time ago."

Liang Chaowei sighed and said: "And Zhang Xiao, director Chen is indeed a bit of a petite, but judging from the current situation, once "Battle of the Red Cliff" is successful, Chen Gang is likely to become an international director. You don't need to offend him."
