Chapter 645: Film Arrangement Crisis (Part 1)

In Beijing, Wangfujing Shopping Mall is crowded and very lively.

The last film and television carnival of the year is being held now. Many film crews and movie stars have appeared at the event, attracting many media and audiences. This is also a good opportunity to promote the films that are to be released during the Spring Festival.

There are less than twenty days until the Spring Festival, and the entrance to the event area is already filled with various promotional display racks and posters.

Among them, the most prominent one is "Hao Lan Girl" starring actress Wei Bing.

This movie, produced by Universal Media with an investment of more than RMB 500 million, stars almost every actor familiar to netizens in addition to the popular movie queens. It is also the most popular Spring Festival movie on the Internet today.

In addition, also released at the same time are the comedy film "Happy Days" and the suspense film "The Detective".

, the campus romance film "Song of Youth" and other movies, the posters of each movie are extremely attractive, and many fans who recognized their favorite actors came forward to take photos.

In comparison, the "When Men Are in Love" display stand placed on the edge looks much deserted.

Many viewers naturally know that this is a work written by Ye Zhiqiu, but at most they just glance at it and walk away, showing little interest.

It's not like Ye Zhiqiu is starring, and Huang Zhengmin is a frowning, somewhat decadent uncle making a romantic movie. No matter how you look at it, it's not as eye-catching as the young male and female stars in the poster of "Song of Youth"!

However, during the interview session, Ye Zhiqiu and "When a Man Loves" still attracted many reporters to interview.

"Mr. Ye, there are rumors on the Internet that there will be three new songs of yours in this year's Spring Festival Gala. Is it true?"

The reporters were obviously much more curious about Ye Zhiqiu than the movie, and they asked some irrelevant questions. Ye Zhiqiu answered in a tight-knit manner: "Three new songs for the Spring Festival Gala? I submitted three songs, and the program team finally decided

shall prevail.”

"Mr. Ye, the two TV series "Legend of Sword and Fairy" and "The Splendid Young Master" were launched at the same time. The Internet said that this is another confrontation between you and Zhang Yifan, Huahai Entertainment and the Universal Group. What do you think?"

Ye Zhiqiu naturally would not be fooled and said casually: "Watch it on Huahai TV and Penguin Video, please support me."

Everyone was obviously not satisfied with this answer, and the next question was already raised.

"Mr. Ye, many netizens are very dissatisfied with the ending of "The Prequel of Sword and Sword". What do you have to say?"

When he said this, the reporter wearing glasses looked at Ye Zhiqiu with sharp eyes and gritted teeth. He was most likely one of the book fans.

"..." Ye Zhiqiu said decisively: "This is a promotion event for "When a Man Falls in Love". Please ask questions related to the movie, otherwise I will refuse to answer."

Many reporters were disappointed, but finally returned to normal questions.

"Mr. Ye, you are the screenwriter of this movie. Can you summarize what kind of story this is?"

After the words fell, everyone turned their attention to Ye Zhiqiu.

"To put it simply..." Ye Zhiqiu thought for a moment and replied: "This is a story about adult love."

Everyone was stunned and glanced at Huang Zhengmin, who had a beard and looked like a mature man next to him. They felt that Ye Zhiqiu seemed to have said something, but at the same time, he seemed to have said nothing.

The reporters changed the topic and asked Zhang Kang.

"Director Zhang, I heard that you had several film offers, why did you finally choose this one?"

Zhang Kang said with a smile: "I was a little hesitant about the script at first, but when I saw the script, I almost immediately decided to make this movie."

The reporters were stunned. Zhang Kang is also one of the well-known Mesozoic directors in the industry. They didn't expect that the script of this movie would be rated so highly.

The question once again turned to the actress who played the heroine, "Ms. Xia Lei, how did you feel about starring in this movie?"

Xia Lei smiled and said: "The biggest impression is..."

"The talent of screenwriter Ye, and the acting skills of Zhengmin."

The reporters asked several questions in succession and gradually discovered a surprising fact.

Whether it's director Zhang Kang, the male and female leads Huang Zhengmin, Xia Lei, and the supporting actress Zhang Feng, the crew of "When Men Fall in Love" all seem to be quite confident in this movie.

On the same day, the interview clips were posted online. Although the movie was not very popular, it still attracted many comments from Ye Zhiqiu fans.

"The missing person is back!"

"This guy finally showed up."

"He dared to show up a while ago, if he wasn't afraid of being beaten on the street."

"I want to ask, what does 'adult love' mean?"

"It means that you can experience adult love by yourself."

"Is this driving?"

"Hehehe, it sounds a bit lewd."

"...the two talents upstairs."

"To be honest, although Ye Zhiqiu is very talented, I really don't think highly of this movie. It can be seen from the film scheduling rate announced by the ticket network. This movie is only less than 3%. It is estimated that it will be very popular if it can recover the cost.

.”

"I am a fan of dog authors, but during the New Year, of course I still want to watch big productions like "Hao Lan Girl" or "The Detective King"."

While there was a lot of discussion on the Internet, the luxuriously decorated office at the headquarters of Universal Media.

After the knock on the door, a deep "come in" sound came after a while.

The door was opened, and the agent next to Wei Bing glanced at the girl who was dressed young and fashionable, with a good figure, a blushing face, lowered her head, and walked out of the door.

There's been a change, and it's not the same third-tier actress who stayed there for more than half a year.

In the office, Yang Chuqiang, who was sitting on the executive chair, glanced at Wei Bing and his agent and said with a smile: "The new actors the company is planning to promote have great potential."

"The appearance is good." Wei Bing made a harmless comment and sat down on the sofa naturally.

"But it's still not as good as you were back then." Yang Chu pointed out pointedly.

Wei Bing looked calm and replied: "Thanks to Mr. Yang for being so considerate."

Yang Chuqiang laughed, did not continue on this topic, and moved forward a small stack of documents on the table.

"The film schedule of "Hao Lan Female General"."

The agent's eyes lit up and he quickly stepped forward to take the stack of documents and returned to the sofa to read through them.

"In addition to our own Universal Cinemas, the other major cinemas have basically won."

"It premiered on the first day of the Lunar New Year, with a 35% film scheduling rate, the highest among all Spring Festival movies. Additional films will be added in the future based on box office results."

Hearing this, the manager almost burst into laughter, and Wei Bing's eyes finally flashed with uncontrollable joy.

Whether a commercial film is successful or not, box office is of course the most important criterion.

As for the box office, the film scheduling rate plays a crucial role. In some cases, it is even more important than the quality of the film itself.

Six movies were released during the entire Spring Festival, and "Hao Lan Girl" was able to get a 35% film schedule rate, which is basically stable.

"Right." Yang Chuqiang suddenly remembered something and asked.
