Huayu: The director just wants to save money

Chapter 361 All coincidences are inevitable
Boomerangs always appear so quietly, yet so refreshing.

Zhao Ritian’s bet seemed like yesterday.

Another one million RMB was spent.

Zhao Ritian was awarded the title of great philanthropist.

This time, Zhao Ritian disappeared for two days.

Forty-eight hours.

When he came back, he regained his experience.

And he said: "I made mistakes the first two times. I didn't expect that Sakura would actually be released. Someone told me before that the situation over there was very abstract, and I didn't believe it...

But my promise is still valid. I still believe that the first-day box office of "Cold Wind" in Sakura will only be seven figures. If the situation is as I said, then you can give me face and send Zhou Mo a sarcastic remark, and you can also come to me to receive a red envelope!"

One is the most talked-about movie in the current entertainment industry, "Cold Wind".

One is Zhou Mo’s black piece. Two consecutive failures still cannot change his ambition. In fact, he becomes stronger and stronger, and more courageous with each setback.

So, that night, the hot search of "Zhao Ritian visits "Cold Wind" three times" successfully went viral.

Its popularity is even higher than when Zhou Mo banned a group of anti-traitor artists.

The latter is ultimately a struggle within a circle.

Even in the eyes of some people, Zhou Mo is not a good person, and the so-called ban is purely "dog bites dog, both end up with a mouthful of fur."

The former obviously has a lot to do with ordinary people——

That's a serious million.

Don’t worry about Zhao Ritian’s identity, how much money he has, or what conflicts he has with Zhou Mo, but he is really giving money away.

Anyone who gets money from him, even if they are Zhou Mo's fans, except for some extreme ones, will basically say thank you in their hearts.

If you like a star, the star will not give you a penny and may even ask for money from you.

But if you follow Brother Zhao, he will not only share money with you, but also thank you.

So, it’s better to be a fan of Brother Zhao than a fan of celebrities.

In just a few days, the number of fans of Zhao Ritian's account on Duoyin increased from hundreds of thousands at the beginning to millions, more than tenfold.

This speed of increasing followers further boosted the popularity of the topic.

At the same time, it also allowed some people with a keen sense of smell to refresh their understanding of tadpole sounds.

Early the next morning.

The box office of "Cold Wind" on its first day of release in Sakura was announced, which is equivalent to RMB 17 million, far exceeding Zhao Ritian's estimate of "not breaking eight figures".

After learning the data, netizens urged Zhao Ritian to give out his coins as soon as possible under his account.

To the surprise of netizens, Zhao Ritian did not raise money this time. Instead, contrary to his usual practice, he started giving out red envelopes that afternoon.

at the same time.

Due to the impact of Zhao Ritian’s three consecutive failures, the box office of "Cold Wind" began to soar again on the last day of the movie’s release.

According to the data Zhou Mo obtained, after the news of "Zhao Ritian's defeat again" spread, within 24 hours, Leng Feng's box office increased from less than 5 million to more than 40 million.

The increase in the number of moviegoers was partly because "Cold Wind" was released in Sakura and they wanted to support the crew", and the other part was because they saw "Zhao Ritian".

To a certain extent, it can be said that Zhao Ritian's operations provided the film with nearly 20 million additional box office revenue.

When Da Tiantian learned about Zhao Ritian, she felt that this guy was indeed lucky.

Although more than three million red envelopes have been sent out, it is estimated that the money can be earned back in the future with the help of millions of fans on Duoyin.

"This guy is really lucky, but he hasn't shown his face. I really want to see who has such a big opinion of you."

After hearing this, Zhou Mo raised his eyebrows.

"Why, you want to know what this guy looks like?"

"I'm just a little curious." Da Tiantian said casually.

That afternoon.

After Zhou Mo and Da Tiantian finished lunch, he suddenly took her out of the house, saying he wanted to give her a surprise.

When we arrived at our destination, it was a coffee shop.

There was a person waiting in the private room for a long time.

When the man saw Zhou Mo and Da Tiantian, he became excited and said quickly, "I have always wanted to meet you two up close, and today I can finally fulfill my wish."

Da Tiantian looked at Zhou Mo and asked him to explain.

Zhou Mo gave her a look, signaling her to be patient.

Seeing this, the man immediately smiled and explained, "Sorry, I was too excited. I heard from Director Zhou that Princess Tian wanted to meet me and see what I, Director Zhou's hater, look like. I'm honored to have aroused Princess Tian's curiosity."

Da Tiantian reacted: "Are you Zhao Ritian?"

The man nodded: "But my name is indeed not Zhao Ritian. Ritian is taken from my name. I made some slight changes and adjustments to form the two words Ritian."

Da Tiantian suddenly understood: "I see, hello Zhao Hao." The man smiled awkwardly again: "Sorry, Princess Tian, ​​my name is not Zhao Hao either."

Da Tiantian:?

She was stunned, and her brain seemed to have frozen.

I was playing with the two Chinese characters "日天" in my mind. When combined together, it's obviously "浩". What else could it be?
The man didn't keep the secret for long and quickly explained:
"My name is Zhao Danda. The last two characters mean upright and aboveboard. My father hopes that I will be an upright person."

Da Tiantian: ...

every day.

Dan Da.

It is really just a slight combination of two words.

But why this change?

Remove one stroke from a character and put it on another character.

This kind of train of thought is too weird.

She glanced at Zhao Danda, but to be honest, this man's behavior really lived up to his name. He gave money as he said, without any ambiguity.

"So you two have known each other all the time?" Da Tiantian realized something was wrong as soon as she finished speaking.

The first time she saw Zhao Ritian... no, Zhao Danda, when he commented online, he also let Zhou Mo read his comments. It was obvious that Zhou Mo didn't know Zhao Danda at all at that time.

Zhou Mo: "We met a few days ago. The specific time should be when he lost the second bet with his online friend. Then we met.

I signed a contract with him, helped him pay for the bet, and he helped us promote "Cold Wind".

In addition, the contract has already been signed with Ziyin. He will become one of the recommended platforms of Ziyin in the future, and will continue to contribute to the promotion of our film by giving money and using the character of "Zhou Mo Heizi". "

Since they have all signed the contract, there is naturally no problem in talking about it face to face.

Da Tiantian has been running the company for several years after all, and after Zhou Mo's explanation, everything was connected in an instant.

"I see. After you lost the second bet, you disappeared for two days. That should be when you met Zhou Mo. Then the money for the subsequent distribution of money should have been paid by Zhou Mo?"

Zhao Dan nodded.

"Princess Sweet is as good as a god. It's true. One million at a time is really too much for me. Director Zhou contacted me and said he wanted to sign a deep cooperation agreement with me, so I agreed."

Da Tiantian was puzzled: "I remember you weren't a rich second generation?"

Zhao Dan smiled bitterly: "I am indeed a rich second-generation, but only compared to ordinary people. One million is not a small amount. For me, it is enough for one time."

Da Tiantian was suddenly disappointed: "I originally thought you were one of those super rich second generation people with a lot of spare money, and you just don't like Zhou Mo, so you want to keep playing with him."

She thought Zhou Mo was finally going to make an enemy of someone, and she wanted to see if she could be like a princess saving a frog once.

Who knew this was it?
Zhao Dan smiled bitterly: "Princess Tian, ​​you are joking. I did not like Director Zhou's movies before because I thought some of the content was too ridiculous. But after Sakura Foreign Affairs announced the list, I realized that I was too short-sighted."

On the side, Zhou Mo thought.

No, it's not that you are short-sighted.

But the world will become more and more outrageous in the future.

It’s really hard to imagine if you haven’t experienced it.

Da Tiantian asked again: "Then the promotion of "Cold Wind" in the last few days was done by you two together?"

If you calculate carefully, starting from the second time, the two million finally converted into at least 20 million in box office revenue.

It's a profit anyway.

"It can only be said that we are just going with the flow. After all, neither Danda nor I thought at the beginning that this bet would be so popular. But since it has become so popular, we might as well increase the efforts." Zhou Mo explained.

That’s how powerful it is to have control over a publicity platform.

Although "fire" has a certain degree of randomness, neither the platform nor the capital can completely create or control it.

But this person who has become popular can be controlled through cooperation, signing contracts, etc.

This is also the origin of the question "When will you start selling products?" that will appear in the future.

And now, this is what Zhou Mo is doing.

He didn't expect "Zhao Ritian" to become popular at first.

And it is difficult for the platform to create such opportunities.

The probability is low and it is easy to end up losing more than you gain.

On the contrary, the cost of this model, where an individual becomes famous and then cooperates with the platform, is undoubtedly much lower.

A moment later, Zhao Dan left.

Da Tiantian analyzed: "This is what you said. The Douyin platform will launch a phenomenal internet celebrity every once in a while, for example, every three months. Is he the target this time?"

"That's right, it just so happens that this person actually likes to be famous. He previously sent out red envelopes online and openly opposed it, all for the sake of fame.

So, I just cooperated with him and saved myself the trouble of streaming. ”
