Huayu, my wife, I support myself

Chapter 227

It's normal not to be optimistic.

After all, Li An, Wu Yusen, Yu Rentai, Yuan Heping, Jackie Chan, Li Lianjie and others were gradually driven back.

How could Lu Chen gain a firm foothold in Hollywood?
"Are you not optimistic about Lu Chen?" Xia Mou's partner Lu Lu asked with a mysterious smile.

"Do you think I should look after it?"

Xia Mou shrugged his shoulders. Anyone with a little sense knows that Hollywood is not interested in Chinese films, including some works that have achieved very good results in China.

"It doesn't matter whether you like it or not." Of course, Lu Lu also knew that the higher-ups had no hope for the influence of Lu Chen's "Shark Beach" in Hollywood: "The National Teacher's "Jinling Thirteen Hairpins" doesn't have to be in Hollywood. Will it be released? At that time, we will create an atmosphere where the two dramas will face off again, and with what Lu Chen said before, it should be no problem to become popular."

"What's the use of this?"

Xia Mou curled his lips: "Aren't you afraid of losing face here?"

Xia Mou sighed, always felt that this was a fucking thing, in order to make the column group and the program popular, they actually wanted to do all kinds of things.

Obviously, these two dramas have already won or lost in China.

"Don't think so much."

Lu Lu said: "Let's split up tonight. You went to the cinema to watch "Shark Beach". By the way, how is its attendance and audience in Ugly Country? For me, I will lead a team to interview some passers-by near another cinema. "

"Can……"

Xia Mou nodded, he also understood that such things are quite common.

Both at home and abroad like to play such routines for the sake of the popularity of the show.

"Shark Beach" has also been screened here for two days.

eight pm,

All the employees of their column group mobilized collectively.

Go to the cinema and wait.

a movie theater.

After Xia Mou took the ticket and entered the theater, he froze for a moment.

He looked at the movie ticket in his hand again.

That's right.

The movie shown this time is "Shark Beach"!

so what?

The attendance rate of the theater was so high that Xia Mou couldn't believe it.

In his opinion, with him added, it is already remarkable that there are more than a dozen audiences in this [-]-seat theater.

who knows.

After entering, there was a lot of woo ya ya.

That's at least half the seats, right?

Xia Mou was stunned.

After being urged by the audience behind him, he came back to his senses and began to find his position.

Soon, the movie begins!
In a few minutes.

Surrounding voices suddenly sounded.

"Wow, what a big shark head!"

"Those two rows of teeth look horrible!"

"God, it's so pitiful to be eaten by sharks like this!"

"It's so realistic, I didn't expect Orientals to make such perfect special effects!"

"Oh, my God, poor girl!"

"Damn shark, let go of that beautiful girl!"

"Oh my god, it's too scary, scarier than watching "Saw" at home!"

"At that moment, I felt a little pain in my thigh!"

The exclamations of these crooked nuts sounded from time to time in the theater.

When Yang Mi took off the earrings and necklaces and was about to do something, some timid audiences even covered their eyes involuntarily, not daring to watch this terrible scene.

"Oh!"

"My God!"

"Buy it!"

"Oh, God!"

Amidst the exclamations of the audience one after another, Yang Mi gritted her teeth and completed the stitches one by one.

"hiss!!!"

This made Xia Mo almost unbelievable.

real or fake.

Like it so much?

As a senior entertainment reporter, he couldn't believe the scene in front of him.

However, he quickly reacted and began to record the reactions of these crooked nuts after watching "Shark Beach".

And some viewers who couldn't bear to watch this scene and closed their eyes still didn't open their eyes.

"Peter, are the stitches finished?" A Caucasian girl asked tremblingly as she gently tugged on the arm of the Caucasian guy next to her.

"Hiss, it's over, it's over!" The boy was trembling and stuttering.

"Then what happened to your teeth!"

"I'll just wait...me!"

After this scene passed, the audience's discussion sounded in the long-silent projection hall.

"Phew! It's so scary that someone would use earrings and necklaces to sew wounds!"

"This director's idea is too crazy!"

"Oriental people always come up with some strange ideas, just like the four great inventions that changed the world!"

"I don't know if there is such an exciting scene below. I didn't even blink my eyes just now. That girl played really well!"

"Oh, my God, you actually finished watching it completely. I couldn't help but close my eyes when I saw half of it!"

"French, you'd better go watch your art movies, this is a movie for men!"

"Appreciate the movie with an artistic eye, and see how beautiful the pictures and shots of this movie are!"

The movie comes to an end soon.

By the end of the movie, almost no one in the 120-seat auditorium had left early.

Moreover, Xia Mou also heard quite a few viewers saying that they want to buy tickets and come back to watch it again.

"This oriental director is too crazy,"

"Oh my god, I only watched the next ten minutes, it's really shocking!"

"What a brave Oriental girl, I think I'm in love with her!"

"Hey Jenny, I have a movie recommendation for you, it's great."

"Steven, don't watch those boring literary films, here are exciting movies that you have never seen before, the heroine has a great figure!"

Xia Mou watched all this quietly, until now he still didn't react.

Who knew Shark Shores would really be popular with these crooked nuts.

.........

at this time.

The interview team led by Lu Lu was also in action, bringing his assistant to interview the audience who came out of the movie theater.

"Hello, sir." Speaking proficient English, Xia Mou asked with a smile: "Excuse me, did you just watch "Shark Beach"?"

"Yes."

Seeing that it was a reporter's interview, the Ugly country audience also cooperated: "I really didn't expect a Chinese director to make such a movie. I thought it was made by our Ugly country director..."

blah blah blah.

Xia Mou on the side was smiling all over his face. At this time, he had accepted "Shark Shore" and seemed to be able to cause quite a stir in Ugly Country.

The interview is over.

Several people couldn't believe it.

Xia Mo said happily: "Continue!"

"There's a guy over there picking up tickets."

Xia Mou's eyes were sharp, and he saw a girl collecting tickets, so he greeted the team and surrounded her.

The problem is no different from before.

"I came to see "Shark Beach". This is the second time I've watched this movie." The girl raised the movie ticket in her hand.

"the second time."

Xia Mou's eyes lit up instantly.

Just when she was about to ask, the girl had already started talking on her own: "This is a very good movie, the best Chinese movie I've ever seen, and it's also the best thriller I've ever seen. The girl is so beautiful and brave. And the director of this film is too imaginative. By the way, I think you are also from Huaguo, can you tell me the Chinese name of that oriental girl?"

Of course, Xia Mou and the others agreed to this request without hesitation.

The girl talked for several minutes.

Seeing that it was almost time, she bid farewell and ran into the cinema.

As if he didn't want to miss anything.

Xia Mo looked at Lu Lu in surprise.

"Hasn't she seen it once? How does it feel like she looks like it for the first time?"

"how could I know."

Although Lu Lu was very surprised that this passer-by girl liked "Shark Beach".

But at this moment, his mood is undoubtedly good.

"I didn't expect the audience in this ugly country to like "Shark Beach" so much. We are really lucky."

"I won't be so lucky next time." The assistant shrugged.

Difficult to reach.

It is also true that there may be ugly Chinese audiences who particularly like "Shark Beach".

However, in his view, such examples will not be too many.

Because this is Hollywood,
There is a natural sense of rejection of Chinese films.

"Not always."

Lu Lu snorted. At this moment, a couple walked up not far away. They seemed to be going into the cinema to watch a movie. Everyone immediately surrounded them.

"Hello sir."

This time it was Lu Lu's assistant who asked the question. The English level of their team is very high, otherwise they would not have taken the role this time.

"Excuse me, are you going to see that movie?"

"Feel sorry."

The man shook his head: "We haven't figured it out yet, we're going in and choosing..."

Hearing this, Lu Lu was a little disappointed.

Then he gave way directly.

However, just when the man was about to leave, the female ticket next to her suddenly said: "I heard that the Chinese movie seems to be good, why don't we go and watch it...it seems to be called..."

Lu Lu said excitedly, "It's called "Shark Beach."

The girl turned her head: "Yes, it seems to be this one. A friend of mine recommended it to me. She said it was the best shark movie she had ever seen. They all liked this movie. After watching it, they discussed it. To be honest, I was very surprised, because I heard that the director of this movie is from Huaguo..."

Lu Lu, who just gave way to the road, was taken aback for a moment.

"You guys also know "Shark Beach"?"

"Of course." The girl stopped: "Of course I know. "Shark Beach" is very popular. Many of my friends have watched it. After watching it, I came back to chat. I haven't watched it, so I don't know how to join them. topic."

A few minutes later the couple left,
Lu Lu's assistant looked at Lu Lu strangely.

Lu Lu couldn't believe it.

"The "Shark Shore" seems to have only been released for two days. Have so many people seen it?"

The assistant also thought for a while, no way, how much did Jiaxing Media spend to promote "Shark Beach" so well?
Yep.

Another passerby appeared.

Lu Lu also noticed the other party.

The two looked at each other, and were about to step forward for an interview, but who knew that this passerby walked over directly.

"Hello."

"Alas, hello."

The two immediately responded to each other in English. It was a girl in a down jacket who should be about the age of a high school student.

He looked at Lu Lu and the others with a trace of curiosity: "Are you from Huaguo?"

"Yes."

Lu Lu smiled and said, "We are from Huaguo, a video website. We are doing a program, interviewing Ugly about movies..."

"Is it "Shark Beach"?"

The girl's eyes were shining brightly: "Can you tell me the name of the heroine of "Shark Beach"? I like her performance so much, and I don't know if she will come to Ugly Country. I want to get her autograph Woolen cloth?"

This is trust.

This was Lu Lu's instant reaction.

Otherwise, there are so many ugly fans of "Shark Beach"?
The girl smiled excitedly: "I went to see it when it was just released yesterday. This movie is so wonderful. I didn't even go to see "Harry Potter" just to watch this movie."

"Why do you like this movie?"

Lu Lu couldn't help asking, but the girl asked inexplicably, "Why don't you like it? That oriental girl is so beautiful. Is she famous in China?"

Lu Lu thought for a while: "Yes."

"What's her name?"

"Her name is Yang Mi."

Lu Lu answered quickly.

The girl immediately looked excited: "She is so brave. If there is such a brave star in reality, I will definitely be crazy for her."

Is this crazy powder?

Lu Lu was stunned again, the girl was quite extroverted, then Lu Lu asked several questions about the movie.

Those who didn't know thought it was the girl who was interviewing them.

10 minutes later,

The girl jumped for joy when she got enough information about Lu Chen and Yang Mi.

""Shark Shore" seems to be really popular in Ugly Country!"

"I'm a little uncertain now."

They also asked questions about "Jinling Thirteen Hairpins".

who knows.

They know the movie has their local stars in it though.

But no one was interested in watching it.

Most of the answers are that they don't like movies with such themes.

However, the number of people interviewed was too small to serve as conclusive evidence.

So they started wandering around again.

Continue to interview several passers-by who came out of the movie theater.

"Sorry, I'm watching Harry Potter."

"I watched "Shark Beach", and I personally like it very much. I feel that Huaguo's movies have improved a lot without knowing it, and they are almost catching up with those top directors in our ugly country."

"I watched The Tourist."

"It's "Shark Beach". I just finished watching it with my classmates. Everyone likes it very much."

"Loved Shark Beach."

"I watched both "Shark Beach" and "Jinling Thirteen Hairpins", but I left after halfway through "Jinling Thirteen Hairpins", and then went to see "Shark Beach", but the result was an unexpected surprise."

……

Successive interviews.

Everyone is a little tired.

And Lu Lu and the others have completely changed from suspicious to shocked.

She clearly remembered, as long as the passers-by had watched "Shark Beach".

Basically, they all showed that they liked this movie very much.

This probability can no longer be explained by coincidence.

An established fact was placed in front of them, "Shark Beach" seemed to be really popular in Ugly Country.

This conclusion can be drawn from their interviews with passers-by before.

such a result.

Not to mention Lu Lu, basically no one in their entire team dared to believe it.

After Lu Lu let out a long breath, she couldn't help breathing quickly and said, "Do you think "Shark Beach" is going to be popular in Ugly Country?"

It seems so!
No one responded, but they nodded in unison.

Although the results are somewhat unexpected, nothing is more convincing than personal experience.

Now the problem they face is.

If such a result is spread to China, will anyone believe it?

Both Lu Lu and Xia Mou froze for a moment.

"Really are……"

"Too surprising..."

Xia Mou and Lu Lu who came back to the hotel said at the same time.

Xia Mou's record book is also filled with the reactions of the audience who watched "Shark Shore" three times tonight.

That's right, Xia Mo watched a total of three episodes of "Shark Shore" tonight.

The first game had the lowest attendance.

about 50.00%,
The attendance rate of the second game is the highest, around 70.00%.

The attendance rate of the third game was slightly lower than that of the second game, but it still had an attendance rate of about 60.00%.

This result undoubtedly surprised him the most.

now,

The staff of the column group are also chatting on twitter.

At this time, their boss also called.

The other side asked: "Is the work going well?"

It was Xia Mou who answered the phone, and Xia Mou's answer was: "Smooth, very smooth, so smooth that it's unbelievable. The audience here is very fond of "Shark Beach"..."

"I understand." The boss comforted: "You are all excellent employees, be patient with the audience in Ugly Country, edit it later, and our goal will be achieved... Cough, if it doesn't work, you can shoot something else, let us It is not bad for domestic audiences to look at the current situation of Hollywood, if not, then spend some money and ask for a few trusts."

"Boss, don't ask for support."

Xia Mou said with some excitement: "Boss, "Shark Beach" is very popular in Hollywood."

"It's normal."

The boss's voice was still lukewarm: "Chinese films are indeed very unpopular in Ugly Country...see you, wait a minute...what did you say?"

In the end, the voice of the boss suddenly rose sharply.

Xia Mou also forced himself to calm down: "Boss, we split into two groups today, one went to the movie theater and the other went to the street for interviews. The average attendance rate of the three movie theaters was above 60.00%, and the conclusions from the interviews were similar.

That is, "Shark Beach" is very popular in Ugly Country. "

"You send me the collection of interview clips."

Compared with Xia Mou's attendance rate of the three games tonight, the boss obviously believed in their interview materials more.

"I'll send it to you now."

After taking out the computer for a while.

After seeing the four words in the email indicating that the sending was successful, Xia Mou couldn't help but say: "Boss, the box office of "Shark Beach" will be out tomorrow, I believe you will be surprised."

After a few minutes.

The voice of the boss came again on the phone: "Congratulations, you have made meritorious service, I have decided, after you come back from Ugly Country, I will add a chicken leg to you."

"Thank you boss."

Xia Mou is also welcome, of course he knows what their first-hand information means!
After hanging up the phone.

Xia Mou is going to wash up and go to bed here, and he has to work tomorrow.

As for the Huaguo kiwi fruit.

After receiving the information sent by Xia Mou, the editing team immediately started working overtime.

But after reading all the materials, the dozen or so editors in the editing room couldn't help raising their eyebrows.

Are you sure it wasn't edited?
Also, is this too obvious?
Are you not afraid that netizens will think it is fake?
