Chapter 112 This luck is too bad(1/2)
Kyoto,
Haolaike Villa Area.
Since three years ago,
After this area was classified as a tourist residential area by the Kyoto Land Management Bureau, various villa buildings have sprung up like mushrooms after a rain.
here,
Not only is it close to the center of Kyoto, but it is also a rare downtown scenic spot.
people who live here,
Most of them are wealthy businessmen with successful business, famous star directors, or hold high official positions.
in,
Then lived Wang Aiye.
now,
Wang Aiye sat on the soft leather sofa, looking very confused.
beside him,
Sitting there was another middle-aged man.
"Where's my box office?"
Wang Aiye’s voice was neither sad nor happy.
But this sentence made the middle-aged man tremble all over.
The next second,
The middle-aged man stood up hurriedly and said in a hasty tone: "Director Wang, I will definitely increase my efforts in publicity when I go back. Maybe the subject matter is too unpopular, so the public acceptance is low."
Hearing the words,
Wang Aiye did not respond.
Looking down,
Wang Aiye is checking the popular rankings on Huabo.
in,
The popularity of "The Tuner" has already reached the top 150!
This month,
The name Chen Ming is almost being talked about.
After a long time,
Wang Aiye spoke slowly: "It took a little unknown boy a week to make a short film with no empty seats in every venue."
"What's even more ironic is that he also makes suspense films."
to be honest,
Wang Aiye didn't even take Xu Manke seriously.
Xu Manke does have some acting skills, but the biggest highlight of the short film "The Tuner" is the script.
On the other hand, his film "Room 7", so far, the total box office is barely equal to "The Tuner".
However, "The Tuner" only has two screenings per day, is limited to ten cities, and has a screening period of only 35 days.
"Room 7" has a full two-month release period, with up to five shows per day, and it is launched simultaneously in theaters across the country.
Thinking about it this way,
Wang Aiye suddenly doubted his life.
Do not know why,
He actually didn't have much anger in his heart.
instead,
He became extremely curious about Chen Ming.
The next second,
Wang Aiye motioned the middle-aged man to sit down and said, "Don't waste your energy on publicity. Save the money. I plan to make another movie."
The poor box office performance is the result of a combination of influences from many aspects.
Just publicity,
It's not enough to save "Room 7" from being miserable.
"After you go back, help me find out about Chen Ming. If you have any news, tell me. If he has any plans to make a movie recently, tell me."
Wang Aiye ordered.
The middle-aged man nodded in agreement and quickly left the villa.
soon,
Wang Aiye received a piece of identity information about Chen Ming in his mailbox.
"It turned out to be him."
Wang Aiye remembered the scene when he met Xu Manke at the Kyoto Cinema. Chen Ming was following Xu Manke at that time. He looked very ordinary, so Wang Aiye didn't have a deep impression of Chen Ming at that time.
After a brief browse,
Wang Aiye saw the last sentence of the email.
for a moment,
His eyes shone with a strange light.
"According to director Wan Youcai of Yuncheng, Chen Ming is currently planning a script for a TV series. The content of the script is unknown, but the theme is tomb robbing."
Grave robbing?
Wang Aiye's eyes flickered uncertainly.
Suspense movies are just unpopular!
But tomb robbing is the founder.
Moreover,
What’s so exciting about tomb robbing?!
But it was precisely because of this that Wang Aiye became interested in Chen Ming.
After thinking for a moment,
Wang Aiye couldn't help but laugh and said: "Since you plan to make a TV series, then I will also plan a TV series. I can't beat you at the box office, and I don't believe that I can't beat you in the ratings."
for a moment,
Wang Aiye's temper got worse.
Although he has always shot movies and has never been involved in TV dramas, it shouldn't be too difficult for him.
It really doesn’t work,
He also has connections as a TV drama screenwriter.
He just wants to compete with Chen Ming!
...
The afternoon of the 1st.
The main competition and the individual competition stage officially begin.
Six hundred players must complete the first round of individual elimination within five days, and draw lots.
Chen Ming's luck is pretty good.
The number 77 was drawn on the third day!
That is to say,
On December 1st and 2nd, he can take a complete rest and only need to watch other players' live broadcasts in the room.
In this regard,
Chen Ming was very satisfied.
at least,
He had more time to prepare.
After going upstairs,
Chen Ming knocked on Su Rou's door. There was a sound of running, and the door opened in response.
