Chapter 359 Small goals, 10 million
Chapter 359 Small goals, 10 million
I have seen "Let the Bullets Fly", and there is nothing bad to say.
A group of people from Baoying Publishing Company gave "Let the Bullets Fly" an average of 9 points after watching it.
People in their distribution companies have a scoring standard for a movie.
It's about the same score as Douhu.
A score of 5 is a pass, a score of 6 is enough for a game, and a score of 7 or above is definitely a good film.
And 9 points, that's a magic movie.
A magical film, it is worth all the resources of Baoying Publishing Company.
Zhang Haotian felt that this was a movie, a real movie.
If he knew that the movie "Let the Bullets Fly" would not disappoint him, then after watching "Let the Bullets Fly", there was only one thought left in Zhang Haotian's mind.
How can the promotion of "Let the Bullets Fly" go further.
Because if there are no accidents, no, there are no accidents, this movie will definitely become the most powerful spoiler in this year's National Day file.
"Mr. Yu, what other comments can I make? I don't have any comments. I think there must be nothing wrong with this movie."
After hearing Yu Xiaoshu's words, Zhang Haotian said a little bit dumbfounded: "I even think that no one will give any opinions on such a movie."
Yes.
What else can I say? ?
It is even said that Yu Xiaoshu is the screenwriter and director, and also undertook the post-editing. Not only that, but all the episodes of this movie were also made by Yu Xiaoshu.
How many positions does he hold?
And how did you get so busy?
What is the most important thing?
The most important thing is that Yu Xiaoshu has done all these things.
Yes.
Not one failed, all done.
Do you think this is awesome? ?
What's even more awesome is that it's nothing to finish it, he has done it quite successfully.
Take a look at the finished film of "Let the Bullets Fly", it looks like it was shot by a mature director. Of course, the director Yu Xiaoshu changed from chief director to assistant director, and then the position of chief director was given to Li Qing's name, but this does not affect Yu Xiaoshu's awesomeness at all.
Awesome people are awesome wherever they go.
You said, what other suggestions did Yu Xiaoshu make?
What do you want to change? ?
Is there anything else that can be changed? ?
no more.
What else to change? ? ?
Teacher Yu, you have the final say.
Zhang Haotian was convinced, and now he believed that what Zhu Di said at the beginning was right.
That's right.
Yu Xiaoshu really has the ability to turn stones into gold.
I can't say how much this "Let the Bullets Fly" can get at the box office. After all, the two heavyweight films in the National Day file are quite competitive, but it shouldn't be a big problem to wrestle with them.
Zhang Haotian said: "Then Teacher Yu, shall we set the screening of "Let the Bullets Fly" a week before the National Day?"
"Yes, there is no problem half a month in advance. We will first screen screenings in first-tier cities, and then expand the scope of screenings one by one. I don't understand this. You are professionals. You judge. I only have one request. , that means the first round of screenings must be bombed."
Yu Xiaoshu said to Zhang Haotian: "After all, we have kept some of the actors in a state of secrecy until now. At this time, when it is released during the screening, it will definitely explode. This effect can only be done once, so it must be arranged well. .”
Zhang Haotian nodded lightly: "Teacher Yu, don't worry, I will find a solution one by one, but are you sure that the premiere ceremony will be arranged this way?"
Yu Xiaoshu said: "Well, let's arrange it like this, and if you need to do something on our side during the next publicity, you can contact me in time."
This time, about "Let the Bullets Fly", Yu Xiaoshu must of course make full preparations.
Next is the premiere.
Among other things, Yu Xiaoshu is not a newcomer, not to mention his reputation in the director circle is really not ordinary.
Although Yu Xiaoshu is not considered a director, but one thing to say, he is indeed more famous as a director, especially as a director of TV dramas.
Think about it, which TV drama director doesn't want to have a screenwriter like Yu Xiaoshu?
In the past year or so, how big a record has Yu Xiaoshu set in TV dramas?
This record cannot be said to be unprecedented, but it can indeed be called unprecedented.
It is truly unprecedented.
Among other things, is a "Soldier Assault" considered a god? ?
Is the "Everything is Good" before "Soldier Assault" also considered quite awesome? ?
What's more important is that Baiqian Media only has two TV dramas. The reasoning trilogy "Undocumented Crime", "The Hidden Corner" and "The Silent Truth" before this is not as good as one. powerful? ?
Both TV dramas and web dramas are blooming.
Under such circumstances, who do you think would not want a screenwriter like Yu Xiaoshu?
In the past, everyone often talked about how good a platinum screenwriter was, and even thought that a platinum screenwriter could replace the director.
But everyone often said that, and not many have seen it?
But it's different now.
Now everyone has really seen one, and it has been steadily improved step by step.
And later, on September 9st, 1 days before the premiere of "Let the Bullets Fly", Baiqian Media's third TV series "Little Farewell" successfully made everyone feel bad about Yu Xiaoshu again. admiration.
At the premiere of "Little Farewell", Yu Xiaoshu said: "The post-production of "Let the Bullets Fly" has been completed a long time ago. The reason why we didn't announce it to the public is because we want to surprise everyone when the time comes, so we will do it in advance. On-demand screenings will start on September 9th, really good movies are not afraid of on-demand screenings, and we also believe that the word-of-mouth of "Let the Bullets Fly" will make everyone enter the cinema to support it."
Okay.
Everyone already thought that "Let the Bullets Fly" might really be a fraudulent movie, but for this movie, everyone even thought that Yu Xiaoshu would only find his fans to come in.
Where did you think of the result.
Yu Xiaoshu actually planned to make this movie seriously, and more importantly, to start screening.
Who doesn't know which movie dares to start screening often means that everyone really has confidence in this movie.
Is this "Let the Bullets Fly" really work?
Isn't it a bad movie? ?
Of course, the media would not let Yu Xiaoshu go, so some media continued to ask: "So, Teacher Yu, when will the trailer for this movie be released?"
"For a good movie, I don't think there is a need for a trailer, and some movie trailers are a kind of deception, so I hope that everyone can go to the cinema to watch this movie and see how it is. So, isn't it a good movie?"
Yu Xiaoshu said seriously.
have to.
Some people present felt that Yu Xiaoshu was inflated, and everyone thought that Yu Xiaoshu was so yin and yang, and other movies were just a dead duck with a hard mouth.
So some media continued to ask: "Then Mr. Yu, what is your expectation for the box office of the movie "Let the Bullets Fly"?"
Yu Xiaoshu thought for a while and said: "Anyway, it doesn't matter whether it's Baiqian Media or me, we are all elementary school students in the film industry after all, so I don't think we can set too high a goal for "Let the Bullets Fly". It's better to set a small goal..."
Speaking of this, Yu Xiaoshu paused for a moment, and then continued: "The box office is only 10 billion.
"Ms. Yu, you, how much did you say???"
The media who asked Yu Xiaoshu felt that they had heard it wrong.
You call this a small goal? ?
10 billion? ?
What the hell is this?
Who doesn't know how difficult it is for a movie to get 10 billion?
Many newcomers, no, not only some newcomers, but also some older generation filmmakers, even if they have not failed often, often their movies have a box office of hundreds of millions and they are very popular.
Many people think that if the box office of a movie can reach 1 million, then it is really exceeding the goal.
Put Yu Xiaoshu here, 10 billion? ?
The launch conference of "Little Farewell" was completely upstaged by Yu Xiaoshu.
At the same time, Yu Xiaoshu also said that Zhang Yi's guest appearance in the movie "Let the Bullets Fly" was just a publicity before, but others thought it was impossible.
But this time at the launch conference of "Little Farewell", Yu Xiaoshu directly proved it.
He even laughed and said, "I think Director Zhang is a good actor."
Well, those who didn't know at this moment thought that the "Little Farewell" press conference had become the "Let the Bullets Fly" press conference.
As soon as the press conference was over, the media coverage began.
"At the launch conference of "Little Farewell", Yu Xiaoshu claimed that "Let the Bullets Fly" will be screened in advance before the National Day file starts."
"At the launch conference of "Little Farewell", Yu Xiaoshu's expectation for "Let the Bullets Fly" was a small goal, 10 billion."
"At the launch conference of "Little Farewell", Yu Xiaoshu claimed that Zhang Yi, the director of "Little Farewell", also participated in "Let the Bullets Fly"..."
……
Needless to say, the media's reports were all over the place.
And this is exactly what Yu Xiaoshu wanted.
If there is no sensational topic, how can it stimulate everyone's discussion?
This is not.
Almost instantly, "Let the Bullets Fly" rushed to the headlines of the hot searches.
"I don't know if "Let the Bullets Fly" is good or not, but Yu Xiaoshu really dares to think about it."
"I used to think that a small goal of 1 million would be enough to act aggressively, but Yu Xiaoshu came up with a small goal of 10 billion."
"Hahaha, I can only say that there is nothing to say. Is Yu Xiaoshu the king of bullying?"
"Yu Xiaoshu didn't make such a publicity before, what the hell is he doing with such a publicity?"
"Yu Xiaoshu, hurry up and down a few, what's with this kind of shameless publicity picture?"
""Let the Bullets Fly" hasn't released a single trailer until now, and then Yu Xiaoshu said that there is no need to release the trailer, what are you doing here?"
……
On the Internet, many people felt a little confused after watching some of Yu Xiaoshu's reports at the launch conference of "Little Farewell".
Or feel a little speechless.
Everyone really didn't understand what Yu Xiaoshu was thinking yesterday and then?
There were also some people who hated Yu Xiaoshu too much, so they directly opened fire on him.
Everyone thinks that "Let the Bullets Fly" must be a bad movie, and Yu Xiaoshu uses such gimmicks to promote it.
Su family.
Su Dong looked at his daughter Su Qing and said, "Do you still believe in Yu Xiaoshu?"
Su Qing turned her head and said, "Dad, why don't I believe it???"
"Look at this Yu Xiaoshu, he has tried everything to promote this, what do you think he can trust?"
Su Dong said sarcastically.
"Dad, I really think you should take a good rest for a while, and then think about it carefully. When you were young and wanted to do things, was there a so-called old man who said you couldn't do this or that? If there was , so what is the difference between you and that old antique now?"
Su Qing looked at her father seriously and said, "Do you think a person who thinks his movie is bad would dare to open it? You are also a director. If you think any movie is bad, you dare to start it first." reflect??"
This remark made Su Dong speechless for a while, or he didn't know how to say it at all.
He really hates Yu Xiaoshu, and this hatred comes from failure.
It came from the fact that Su Dong had failed many times with Yu Xiaoshu, and he even felt a little angry or frustrated.
For this reason, Su Dong had to deny Yu Xiaoshu without any reason.
It seems that only in this way can he prove that he is better than Yu Xiaoshu.
But what's the point? ?
As Su Qing said, if it's a mule or a horse, you'll know when you pull it out.
For a movie, which filmmaker would dare to order it first when he knew it was a bad movie? ?
Are you impatient? ?
But Su Dong still wouldn't admit his mistake, he sneered and said, "Look, this is Yu Xiaoshu's gimmick, and the small target is 10 billion? Although I don't know anything about his film, but if he is really a new director If you want to make a movie with a box office of 10 billion yuan, then I'll just kill myself."
Even the angry words came out.
Su Qing shook her head and said, "You don't need to be killed, I just hope you can treat Yu Xiaoshu fairly and justly."
At the same time, on the Internet, Yu Xiaoshu doesn't only have black fans, he also has some fans who really like him, and these fans will naturally speak for Yu Xiaoshu.
The reason is very simple.
Neither are fools.
In the past year and a half, Yu Xiaoshu has created more than a few miracles, how could he be a fool? ?
As Yu Xiaoshu's fans, the happiest thing is to believe that Yu Xiaoshu is over.
Yu Xiaoshu will never let you down.
So these people fought back one after another.
But no matter what, in the end, just under everyone's expectations, the day of screening is getting closer and closer.
And because of the success of "A Little Farewell" on the Internet, it can be said that there are more discussions about "Let the Bullets Fly".
You, Yu Xiaoshu, have no failures in TV dramas.
But that doesn't mean you, Yu Xiaoshu, can do well in the film industry, right?
