Huayu: The director just wants to save money

Chapter 480 Bastard

Chapter 480 Bastard
Wu Baige was hospitalized.

The news was captured by reporters and spread, but was quickly suppressed by Huayi.

When Zhou Mo learned the news, he was already in Xianyang.

"I don't know if Wu Baige can finish filming 'The Crossing' smoothly." He muttered.

Big sweet alert.

"What do you want to do again?"

"Nothing, it's just a pity." Zhou Mo sighed, "I heard from the grapevine that Wu Baige went in after seeing the box office of our movie on the first day. If he saw the box office of the next few days, I don't know how angry he would be."

"The Great Wall" achieved continuous reversal at the box office in the next three days as usual.

By the fifth day, when Zhou Mo and his team came to Xianyang for a roadshow, the movie's box office had exceeded 700 million yuan and was beginning to hit the 800 million yuan mark.

Da Tiantian: "Be a decent person and don't really make Wu Baige angry and cause any problems. Be careful that Huayi will use this as a pretext to reverse the situation for you."

Zhou Mo comforted her: "Don't worry, I know everything. Didn't you see that I haven't said a word about him since the premiere?"

Da Tiantian asked back: "And then the news about Wu Baige's breach of defense was trending on the website every day?"

Zhou Mo said sternly, "Tiantian, I want to correct you on one thing. Lizhan is a free creation video platform, and so is Zhiyin. I have no way of controlling what the creators on it create. After all, I am just an ordinary director."

Da Tiantian rolled her eyes at him and let him experience it himself.

Before entering the box, Da Tiantian gave a reminder.

"Remember what you just said. Don't even mention Wu Baige in the last sentence. All creations are made by users themselves."

Zhou Mo smiled and nodded.

"Don't worry, I understand."

Tonight, there is a banquet for the crew and the Terracotta Warriors Museum.

In "The Great Wall", the model of the Terracotta Warriors in the underground palace is a one-to-one replica of the real Terracotta Warriors, and this operation requires the cooperation of the museum.

Now that the movie is released, it’s natural to express my gratitude.

At a banquet, people clinked glasses and exchanged cups.

Apart from those basic polite words, the most interesting thing was what the museum director blurted out when he saw Fu Dalong.

"Like, really too much like."

This made Fu Dalong speechless for a long time.

Zhou Mo laughed at the side: "I told you, Brother Shan must have been a person in a pit in his previous life, and then he came out of the pit in this life and wanted to reminisce about the past, so he played the role of Ying Zheng."

The others also smiled kindly.

The next day.

The roadshow of "The Great Wall" in Xianyang also officially started.

According to the original plan, the person mainly responsible for interacting with the audience is still Zhou Mo, which is also the practice of all past movies.

But when they got to the scene, many audience members kept asking Fu Dalong questions.

Seeing this, Zhou Mo simply handed over the position of "boss" to Fu Dalong.

Although I didn't make any preparations in advance, Fu Dalong's level was more than enough to deal with some basic problems.

"Teacher Fu, how do you feel about leaving the film you starred in halfway through?"

"It's actually not that bad. The growth of the character Ying Zheng is more reflected in The Myth, while in The Great Wall, he is at his peak when he appears, and the plot is already very complete."

"Then the character Ying Zheng died from the backlash of the seal. Do you think it's regrettable or a tragedy?"

“No, I don’t think so. All the fans here should have noticed that the Qin Shi Huang in The Great Wall is completely different from the Qin Shi Huang in real history.

In The Great Wall, Ying Zheng finally died for his ideals. He succeeded in protecting his people. This situation is not a pity, but a perfect ending. "

"Director Zhou, I would like to ask if the suspense you set up at the end of the movie, where Xu Fu met Emperor Wu of Han and discussed the matter of immortality, is related to the subsequent witchcraft disaster?"

Zhou Mo's eyes lit up.

After several days of roadshows, this was the first time he heard someone ask about this plot.

Looking at the person who asked the question, Zhou Mo picked up the microphone and nodded.

“Yes, since we are going to film Xu Fu’s mischief, the sequel will definitely talk about the Emperor Wu’s witchcraft disaster, which deeply affected the fate of the Han Dynasty.

In fact, anyone who has studied history a little should know that Liu Che did a lot of wrong things in his later years, and the years of war before that also messed up the country's economy. If it were not for Huo Guang and Emperor Xuan of Han, the Han Dynasty might have gone downhill completely after Liu Che.

The next season of The Great Han will also begin with Huo Guang taking over a declining country and tell how he governs it.”

The plot was explained, and the film was advertised. The questioner's eyes lit up: "Director Zhou, are you saying that The Great Han will film the witchcraft disaster?"

Zhou Mo shook his head: "Although I really want to say yes, unfortunately, this part is not included in "The Great Man". We will consider incorporating this part into the next movie.

The witchcraft disaster will become the opening of the next movie."

The person asking the question was a little disappointed when he heard that it was not in the drama, but then he thought, it would be fine in the movie as well, and the special effects in the movie would be better.

Zhou Mo put down the microphone, feeling satisfied.

The person who asked the question is really a genius. He was able to do two advertisements in a row.

I'll find a chance to add you as a friend.

……

After staying in Xianyang for three days, Zhou Mo and his team moved to other cities.

That’s what a roadshow is all about, it requires constant running back and forth.

Although the places are different, the problems are actually similar.

So over time, people will get bored.

Fortunately, Zhou Mo would report the film data to the crew as soon as possible every day, and then everyone would continue to work hard as if they had been injected with chicken blood.

Until the 22nd day, the end of January.

The total box office of "The Great Wall" exceeded 2 billion.

The crew had already returned to Yanjing at this time.

Zhou Mo had already booked the hotel in advance, and another wave of banquets was about to begin.

At the banquet, Da Tiantian once again gave out money.

Zhou Mo roughly calculated for her that from the time the movie was released to now, this girl has spent tens of millions of dollars.

In fact, although the box office of "The Great Wall" is likely to be higher than that of "Cold Wind", the final profit should be less than that of "Cold Wind".

After all, the special effects requirements for cold wind are not that high, and the cost of calling people is much lower.

Wu Jing is the only main character, and the rest didn't spend much money.

Even Wu Jing had an old contract and didn't spend much money.

The Great Wall cost a lot of money.

But since Da Tiantian was willing, Zhou Mo just let her do it.

At night, the banquet ended.

Da Tiantian's face flushed red as she was supported by Zhou Mo and walked back to the room.

He walked while mumbling to himself.

"Two billion. Two billion."

"Okay, two billion."

While Zhou Mo coaxed her, he cleaned the rice residue from the corner of her mouth.

This iron-headed kid really had a lot of fun this time and didn't even care about his image.
