Huayu: The director just wants to save money

Chapter 478 Breaking the Record Again

I have to say that there are really a lot of people in the entertainment industry who like to be opinion leaders.

Then the endings of these opinion leaders are basically similar.

Overturned.

A typical example is Zhao Mouxin.

Of course, there are also some people who, because they have received the money, have no choice but to say something, but the result will be the same if they say too much.

Still overturned.

Therefore, speaking less in the entertainment industry will definitely save you a lot of trouble.

When Zhou Mo said this, he winked at Hu Ge.

Hu Ge saw what Zhou Mo did and coughed lightly.

He was also young and frivolous, and he also couldn't control his mouth, although later on, according to the personality and route designed for him by the company, he basically spoke very little.

But some dark history can still be found if someone is willing to dig it out.

Zhou Mo didn't mention this matter any more and changed the subject.

"By the way, Lao Hu, I never asked about the crew of your "The Disguiser". How is it going?"

Hu Ge came back to his senses and said, "Very good Director Zhou, it is expected to be broadcast in May."

Director Zhou: "Old Huo will be broadcasting after you two. When the time comes, you two can compete with each other. The one with the better performance will have a reward left for you."

Hu Ge was shocked: "Director Zhou, I can't compare with Lao Huo. The preparations for "The Invisible Guardian" are too thorough."

Zhou Mo joked: "Then I asked you to join the crew of "Guardians" but you refused and insisted on going to "The Disguiser". This was your own choice, young man."

Hu Ge sighed and said, "Director Zhou, you told me that the main plot of "Guardians" is about falling in love, and falling in love with several people at the same time, so I refused.

I didn’t expect the script for Guardians to be so good.”

He felt aggrieved when talking about this. The difference between "The Disguiser" and "Watchmen" that Zhou Mo mentioned to him was too huge.

So he chose the pretender without any hesitation.

Now, I just regret it, so much.

Zhou Mo spread his hands: "Look, the difference is here, isn't it? When Lao Huo heard the news from me, he immediately chose "Guardian" and said that he just likes dating."

Hugo: ...

Zhou Mo comforted him, "But you don't have to worry. Doesn't The Disguiser have three male protagonists? All the popularity of the three men is on you. You can fight against Lao Huo."

Hu Ge raised his eyebrows and felt a lot more relaxed.

Three against one, he felt he could fight.

Before he could finish his words, Fu Dalong came over again.

"By the way, Director Zhou, are we going to the Terracotta Warriors later?"

Zhou Mo nodded: "The Terracotta Warriors and Horses Museum has contacted me several times and invited us to promote it there, so this is what we should do."

During the promotion of "The Great Wall" during this period, the Terracotta Warriors and Horses Museum was a unit that had been agreed upon long ago. They helped with the promotion while they went on the roadshow.

It is a mutual achievement.

After everyone finished their meal, the assistant called.

"Director Zhou, the first day's data is out."

Zhou Mo felt a sudden silence around him.

"How many?"

"Two billion."

Zhou Mo's eyes widened instantly. 170 million, another record-breaking number.

He took several deep breaths in succession, which helped him to calm down a little.

After hanging up the phone, I looked around and saw that the entire crew had gathered over.

"How much?" asked Da Tiantian.

Her voice was trembling, and her eyes were fixed on Zhou Mo's phone. Zhou Mo coughed lightly and shared his excitement with everyone.

"One hundred and seventy million."

The moment the voice fell, the surroundings immediately fell into silence, leaving only the sound of heavy breathing.

This silence lasted for nearly three or four seconds before it was finally broken by a cheer.

"One point seven hundred million!"

“The record has been broken again!”

"Wuhu, take off!"

Everyone spontaneously began to celebrate and party with each other.

Zhou Mo looked at everyone with a smile, feeling their high spirits.

These are normal reactions.

If he wasn't already a mature director, he would probably be making a scene with the guys right now.

Looking at Da Tiantian again, she was holding her chest and looked like she couldn't breathe.

Seeing Zhou Mo looking at him, he quickly grabbed Zhou Mo's hand.

Zhou Mo knew that this was a situation that would only occur when one was extremely nervous, so he immediately approached her and gently patted her back. After a while, Da Tiantian's breathing slowly returned to normal.

"how's it going?"

Da Tiantian took a sip of water and let out a long breath.

"It's okay, it's not a big problem."

Zhou Mo watched her face return to normal, and then he joked, "I don't know who said last night that he was professionally trained and a veteran star. No matter how much the first-day box office is, he won't panic."

Da Tiantian rolled her eyes at him. Her slightly rosy face looked a little cute with this expression.

"You're just asking for trouble. I didn't expect it to be so high. 170 million, this number is a bit too exaggerated."

"Is exaggeration bad?"

"Okay, of course it's good. The movie I star in should be this good!" Da Tiantian lifted her hair.

Zhou Mo didn't say anything either, just looked at her with a smile.

Da Tiantian felt a little embarrassed by being looked at, and licked her lips: "Well, I really didn't expect it just now. It's higher than the first day box office of "Cold Wind"."

"It should be the events of the past month or so. The audience has been devastated by two consecutive blockbusters, and they are retaliating by spending money on us." Zhou Mo thought about it and came to a conclusion.

The first-day box office of 1.7 small goals indeed exceeded his expectations.

I originally thought that it would be at most the same as "Cold Wind". Without any special highlights in the later stage, it would probably not be as good as "Cold Wind".

But now it seems that the opportunity has arisen again.

Da Tiantian asked: "By the way, what do you think the final box office of this movie will be? Can it be 2 billion?"

At this time, the first wave of excitement of the people around had almost passed. Hearing Da Tiantian's question, they came over again and looked at Zhou Mo eagerly.

Right now, the only movie in the entire entertainment industry that has grossed 2 billion yuan is "Cold Wind".

If "The Great Wall" can also earn 2 billion, they will have set a record.

Although the second number is not as nice as the first one.

But two billion is totally too expensive.

Zhou Mo thought for a moment and said, "According to the normal trend, it should be no problem to reach 2 billion in the end. We should trust the audience accumulated from the previous dramas. There is nothing wrong with our plot, so there will be no sudden drop."

Everyone was completely relieved.

Now that Zhou Mo has said so, the 2 billion box office is basically secured.

Zhou Mo reminded.

"Even though I said that, we still have to work hard on publicity. Don't think everything is safe. We have to work hard before the results come out."

"Don't worry, Director Zhou, it's fine!"
