My Online Dating Partner Is a Celebrity

Vol 14 Chapter 308: Counterattack

  "Dingling! Dingling! Dingling! Jingling~!"

  The phone's ringtone kept ringing, even if Zhang Yun covered his head with a pillow, the ringtone still penetrated into his ears.

   Zhang Yun, who had barely slept last night, sighed and answered the phone.

  "Hey, if you have something to say, please let go of the fart." Zhang Yun said nothing nicely.

  "Are you so unkind on New Year's Day?" He Yubai's voice came over the phone, "Are you still not satisfied with me?"

  Zhang Yun looked at the ID, only to realize that it was He Yubai who always used landline to make phone calls.

   "I'm sleepy to death." Zhang Yun casually explained, "But what's wrong with being polite to you?"

   "There is nothing wrong, but I wanted to introduce you to a friend in Hollywood, it seems that you don't need it anymore." He Yubai's tone seemed to hang up.

  Zhang Yun heard the three words "Hollywood" and got up from the bed with a "rub".

   "Brother Bai, misunderstandings are all misunderstandings. Happy New Year! Want a red envelope?" Zhang Yun's attitude changed in an instant.

   "...Can you be more shameless?" He Yubai was speechless.

   "How can I have a face in front of business?" Zhang Yun said with emotion, and then asked, "But I didn't expect that you actually introduced me to people in Hollywood. Come on, what friends do you introduce?"

"I just want you to go to Hollywood to develop, don't block our way of Guanghai." He Yubai gave a pale and weak explanation. He did not directly answer Zhang Yun's question, but said, "Congratulations! "

  "Congratulations to me, what?" Zhang Yun didn't understand.

  "You new world boss, how come the news is more inaccurate than me, an outsider?" He Yubai said, ""Kung Fu" premiered for twelve hours, with a counterattack in film volume, and the box office has exceeded 1 billion."

   "Oh, this, it's nothing, normal level." Hearing such a news, Zhang Yun was very calm.

   "It sounds like you are not surprised at all?" He Yubai was puzzled.

   "A work with such a huge amount of effort will surprise me if the box office is not high." Zhang Yun said very pretentiously.

"It seems to make sense... I really didn't expect that the first film your New World ventured into the movie circle had such a huge battle." He Yubai said with a little admiration, "Originally, the number of films was only fourth. "Kung Fu", because of its excellent reputation, has caused theaters to temporarily increase the number of films. After so many years in the Spring Festival market, "Kung Fu" is the first to make theaters busy."

   "I told them a long time ago that "Kung Fu" is going to get 6 billion box office." Zhang Yun hummed.

"To be honest, I really admire you. Not only did you not relax during this year's rest, you even went further." He Yubai said, "If it weren't for such a good result in "Kung Fu", I would really hesitate. Introduce Mark to you."

   "Mark?" Zhang Yun raised his eyebrows, "How do I feel that I have heard this name?"

  "Aren’t the Americans called Jack Mark or something? You must have heard of it." He Yubai smiled, "This Mark is the young owner of Tulun Pictures. Knowing him will be very beneficial for your new world to enter Hollywood."

   "Tulun Pictures?" Zhang Yun was taken aback, "You really gave me a gift..."

  Hollywood is the world’s largest film production base. There are countless large and small film production companies there. Several of them can be called the top regardless of scale or reputation.

  For example, the "Yunque" cooperating with He Yubai’s Guanghai, compared to Tulun Pictures, which He Yubai introduced to Zhang Yun.

  The blockbuster films made by Turun Pictures are too numerous to count. This film studio began to show fame in the 1980s and is now one of the Hollywood giants. If Zhang Yun can really catch up with Tulun Pictures, then the future film road of the New World can be described as a map of Pingchuan.

"Whether it is a big gift or not, it depends on yourself. I am only responsible for introducing you." He Yubai reminded, "Mark likes Chinese culture very much. The several Kung Fu films that Tulun made before were all advocated by Mark for investment. Of course, In the end, you also know that it was a terrible death. If you can become friends with Mark, perhaps, Chinese movies can really appear in Hollywood."

   "I hope so." Hearing He Yubai's instructions, Zhang Yun also became serious, "Anyway, thank you in advance."

   "Don't thank me, it's your "Kung Fu" that proved yourself." He Yubai said, "Okay, so be it, you should enjoy the praise of netizens!"

   "Netizens' praise and criticism should be the last thing to listen to." Zhang Yun said a well-known saying.

   "Then what do you hear about netizens?" He Yubai asked strangely.

   "I have friends, why should I listen to what netizens say?" Zhang Yun replied.

   "It makes sense." He Yubai felt that this was quite correct, "Hang up, I will arrange a meeting for you."

  After saying this, He Yubai hung up the phone directly.

  "He Yubai...this person is quite interesting."

  Zhang Yun looked at the phone and couldn't help but tweeted.

  Simply washed his face, Zhang Yun picked up the phone and opened WeChat-there were already nearly 99 unread messages in it!

  As soon as we opened WeChat, congratulations flooded. Anyone from Qing Dynasty, from Qi Xiaoyun, from Yi Xuebin, from teacher Li Xiaoliang... everyone's WeChat content can probably be summarized into four words:

   "Kung Fu" is awesome!

  Pre-sale before the Spring Festival, "Kung Fu" is not a big one. This is not because netizens do not trust the new world, but because they are not familiar with the new world and the cinema.

  Movies don’t mean that they can sell well if they are filmed well. Many excellent movies have a low box office, and even have no name. The reason is that it has a pitiful number of films.

  For example, "The Crowd", the film layout of this movie is really difficult to describe.

  How hard is it to say a word? The director and actors personally end, begging the theater to arrange more shows!

  A movie theater may only have one movie a day, and this one is still in the middle of the night, and some movie theaters simply don’t arrange movies.

  In this case, there is a ghost if the box office can be high!

   Although the word-of-mouth of "Kung Fu" is quite good in advance, because New World has never cooperated with theaters before, it is naturally difficult to gain the trust of major theaters.

  So on the morning of the first day of the new year, "Kung Fu" can only barely reach 10% of the film schedule throughout the day. It is located behind "Students", "Crossing", and a family comedy "Old Friends Reunion".

  This is because the early stage of "Kung Fu" was so popular, the theaters gave face to it!

  The smaller number of films, the pre-sale box office of "Kung Fu" will only be 500 million, which is not too prominent.

  However, when the premiere ended at twelve o'clock on the new year, everything quietly changed.

  The word-of-mouth of "Kung Fu" is rising rapidly, and the popularity is very hot; the other movies have mixed advantages and disadvantages, and the popularity is directly crushed by "Kung Fu"!

  No way, "Kung Fu" is really too good, and the other movies have their own problems.

   Under normal ratings, a four-star rating accounted for nearly 50% of a certain "Kung Fu" page, and a five-star rating reached 15%.

  It can be described as a word-of-mouth burst!

   Corresponding to it is the "pull" of films such as "Protege", "Crossing" and "Old Friend Reunion".

  These three movies are flawed to varying degrees.

  The actors of "Protege" are online, but the plot can only be regarded as a pass. A suspenseful film about police and robbers, there is no suspenseful atmosphere at all;

  As a sci-fi special effects film, "Crossing" is quite enough, but the plot is extremely stretched, and it’s okay to watch a lively scene. If you really study the plot carefully, it will be a shit;

   "Old Friends Reunion" not to mention, all the mistakes made by comedy films, this film basically made them again.

  As the so-called "relying on peers", the three movies with a higher volume than "Kung Fu" each have their own problems, which makes "Kung Fu" stand out easily.

  Good reputation, comedy and special effects film.

  The New Year's Eve, the picture is a fun and lively, "Kung Fu" naturally became the audience's first choice.

  This has also led to the fact that 10% of the film schedule cannot meet the needs of the audience at all.

   Seeing that "Kung Fu" is full of games, and the games after two days are full, the movie theater can't respond, so there is no need to do business.

  Only the afternoon of the first day, "Kung Fu" temporarily added thousands of games across the country. As a result, the box office of "Kung Fu" rose visibly.

  The more films are arranged, the more people watching, the more people will praise the excellent plot and special effects of "Kung Fu", attracting more people to buy tickets...

  So falling into a virtuous circle, just on the first day of its premiere, "Kung Fu"'s box office exceeded 1.5 billion, leading the second-placed "Through" by 200 million!

  And this is just the beginning!
