I went viral when I attended my ex-girlfriend's wedding

Chapter 565
The second part of "Home Alone" is related to the first one.

Not just at the actor level.

The plot is more or less similar.

a new Year.

During the National Day holiday.

Ma Yuxuan, who did not travel to Chengdu last time because he was forgotten at home, is still planning to go abroad with his family this year to enjoy this rare leisure time.

Of course his careless parents will not forget to take him with them this time.

It's just that their personality of throwing things away hasn't changed much.

Seeing the plane getting ready to take off.

The whole family hurried to the airport.

Very busy.

This time Ma Yuxuan was not forgotten at home.

But it was forgotten at the airport when checking in.

By accident, I boarded a flight to another country!
It was the first time he came to a big city that was completely unfamiliar to him.

Kevin, who is clever and mischievous, can't help but be secretly afraid.

Worse.

He actually met the two stupid thieves who were badly damaged by him in his house in the last episode.

The two had just escaped from prison.

I happened to run into Kevin.

Naturally, this time I have to avenge my past humiliation.

then.

Kevin's battlefield has moved from his home in the previous episode to Central Park, hotels, Toys "R" Us and old houses abroad.

Advantages of comedy.

is innate.

It can be described as the C position in the film market.

Because the audience is wider.

So it’s not weaker than special effects films at all.

In addition, there is a word-of-mouth guarantee from the first film.

This film brought countless families into the theater as a group as soon as it was released.

Tickets are selling out quickly.

First week of release.

"Home Alone" alone made a total of 1.4 million.

Although it is lower than the 1.9 million in the first part.

But don't forget.

The first part was released during the Spring Festival of the year before last.

What time is it now.

Such a comparison.

The box office is really not low.

And most series comedy movies.

Box office trends are almost always on a downward trend.

Very few can come from behind.

Not to mention that the subject matter of "Home Alone" is too restrictive.

Want to create unlimited imagination within a limited scope.

That was really not easy.

This is also the fundamental reason why the box office began to plummet after the third film.

It tests the screenwriting skills too much.

Writing is repeated.

Nothing new.

The audience gradually stopped buying it.

Don’t repeat it.

How can there be so much inspiration?

It's so difficult to be a human being.

So sometimes enough is good.

Let’s take a look at the new film “Father and Daughter Love” invested by Galaxy Entertainment.

It only took in a box office of 3442 million in the first week.

He rushed directly to the street and went to grandma's house.

Even if the cost is not high.

Outside media reported that it was only around 4000 million.

Only high and not low.

But I can’t stand it and no one cares about it.

Although the realistic family themes are enough to make people tear up in some plots.

But the audience can feel the stiffness of the script.

If the lens language is not expressed clearly.

Then they can't even concentrate on the most basic level of concentration.

What about empathy?

According to the critics.

In this "Father-Daughter Love" film.

All the lines are in a language style in which men silently and women cry.

More than 30% of the shots are scenic shots of the great rivers and mountains of the motherland.

There are also 20% of shots that go back and forth without meaning.

The remaining 50% is barely the main plot line.

Speak in human terms.

The audience members who have paid money are the easiest to be satisfied.

As long as the technology is good.

Put in the effort.

The old man will always be at your mercy.

Crying and laughing.

But the film is overall boring, mechanical and forced transitions.

Who can give you a good look?

make money?

Make money from the northwest wind.

I don’t know if the source of the script is a flaw or not.

But there are definitely a lot of problems with the filming.

Galaxy Entertainment here.

Shao Xiao just took a look at the report and threw it away.

The stark numbers are too eye-catching.

Out of sight.

Don't worry.

The director of "Father and Daughter Love" has actually worked with him several times before.

Trustworthy in terms of vision and making money.

Shao Xiaogang had been talking to several other film companies for a long time.

Only a fraction of the actual cost of 3500 million was obtained.

But who would have thought this movie was so bad.

It collapsed immediately.

Just over 3400 million were sold in the first week.

Go on like this.

Don't talk about making money.

Recovering costs is a problem.

Shao Xiaogang couldn't help but sigh.It cannot be ruled out that the influence of the Côte d'Azur Company's sniper is involved.

But how big can the impact be?
It's not like the other party is forcing all the viewers to go into the theater.

Tracing the source.

Isn’t it because of the lack of reputation?

Not attracting people.

It's a good time.

Millions were wasted again.

Not much to lose.

Otherwise, he really doesn't know what to do.

"Dong Dong Dong~"

Just as he was thinking.

There was a sudden knock on the door.

"Enter."

Shao Xiaogang raised his head.

At this time.

Feng Ying from the music department walked in slowly.

I was slightly surprised to see a few pieces of paper scattered on the ground.

But she quickly adjusted her facial expression.

"Mr. Shao, these are the three singers who are preparing to release albums in early May. Take a look." Feng Ying handed him the information.

"Okay, you don't have to show it to me, you can just arrange it directly." Shao Xiaogang quickly waved his hand.

"Okay, Mr. Shao, but here's the publicity fee, look at it," Feng Ying asked tentatively.

"No."

Shao Xiaogang felt uncomfortable when he heard about the money: "Let them pay it directly. Now all singers in the company are treated equally, and no money is allowed to be invested in publicity."

It was originally to deal with the Côte d'Azur Company.

Too much money was spent on the DIA girl group.

In addition, the movie aspect has not improved either.

The financial picture is very unsightly now.

I can only take a breath for the time being.

Cut back on other people’s expenses.

"I see."

Feng Ying roughly understood the reason, but then she hesitated: "There is something else I need to tell you, Mr. Shao."

"There's no one else, just tell me." Shao Xiaogang gave her a dissatisfied look.

"Well, it's about the DIA girl group. When their previous album "Fire" was selling the best and most popular, I signed a lot of subsequent commercial performance contracts for them, and the quotes I gave them were not low, like what? Brand activities, ceremonies, online promotions, etc. are all relatively high-end and easy tasks, but since the rise of the I hope I can cancel the contract. They would rather pay a small part of the liquidated damages than continue to perform according to the contract, you see." Feng Ying said truthfully.

Shao Xiaogang was very angry when he heard that. He immediately slammed the table and said, "What do you mean, they want to replace the DIA girl group with the X girl group?"

"The words didn't explain it, but that's probably the idea." Feng Ying said.

"No, the X girl group is very popular, but the DIA girl group is currently considered a top group in the country. Is the gap so big?" Shao Xiaogang didn't understand.

"In the early days, the two were almost the same, but recently the DIA girl group's commercial performance quotations have been incomparable to those of the X girl group, and they have fallen sharply." Feng Ying explained.

"Just because the other party is an international girl group? Has it opened up the American market?"

Shao Xiaogang was furious after hearing this.

In this regard.

Feng Ying didn't know how to answer.

International trends are one aspect.

The domestic situation is not optimistic either.

After the tide of public opinion changed.

Experienced the Singing on Fire video incident again.

The current X girl group.

It has really been crushed in all directions.

See her silent.

Shao Xiaogang frowned at first.

He closed his eyes and thought for a moment.

Then open your eyes.

Subconsciously he glanced at the box office statistics sheet that he had just thrown away on the ground.

Think back to the disparity in numbers.

His anger was quickly replaced by helplessness.

"What is the liquidated damages set?" Shao Xiaogang, who calmed down a little, continued to ask.

"Not much, just tens of thousands of dollars. Some of them are old partners. It's more of a formality for both parties." Feng Ying replied immediately.

"They don't have to pay tens of thousands of yuan. MSI Entertainment won't squander even this small amount of money. Let it be voided. It's all voided."

Shao Xiaogang said with a huge headache: "I hope you can contact them for some other jobs. It doesn't matter how much or how little money you have. You have to maintain your popularity from time to time."

Seeing how much money was spent.

We can’t just let it go just because we lost to X girl group.

This girl group.

No matter what, it can't be ruined in his hands like this.

"I understand, Mr. Shao."

Feng Ying went down after saying that.

However, it didn't take more than a few minutes.

Yu Di, who was in charge of the artist department, came over again.

"What's the matter with you?"

Shao Xiaogang is really worried now.

Inexplicably very irritable.

One bad thing after another.

Isn’t there some good news?

"Mr. Shao, this year there are many singers in the company, big and small, who are dragging their feet on renewing their contracts. Something is wrong. I asked my people to check it out. The results are not optimistic. Many companies outside the company are now asking for help. They are poaching people from our company," Yu Di said hurriedly.

"Poaching? What's going on? Is it the Côte d'Azur Company's fault?" Shao Xiaogang said in surprise.

"No."

Yu Di shook his head and said: "No sign of the Côte d'Azur Company's involvement was found, but Meichuang Gioia was found."

"Lu Mingzhong? What a stab in the back."

heard.

Shao Xiaogang's entire face darkened.

"Do you know what conditions they offer?" He gritted his teeth.

"I'm not sure, but Mr. Shao, I personally feel that most singers don't want to leave because of the treatment." Yu Di looked at Shao Xiaogang's face and said.

"It's not because of the treatment? What's the reason? Let's be clear." Shao Xiaogang asked doubtfully.

"Mr. Shao, this is just my own feeling. Just listen to it. I always feel that everyone doesn't want to go head-to-head with Côte d'Azur Company."

Yu Di said bravely: "Especially after the DIA girl group incident, everyone seems to be privately becoming more and more dissatisfied with the company's arrangements."

Hear this.

Shao Xiaogang's expression suddenly changed.

want to say something.

But the words reached his throat.

It was swallowed again.

If Galaxy Entertainment crushes Côte d'Azur along the way, it will destroy everything.

They were afraid that they wouldn't say a word.

Just because I lost too many times.

Everyone lost confidence.

Start to cherish your own feathers.

So selfish.

They are really a bunch of unfamiliar white-eyed wolves.
