Huayu: The director just wants to save money

Chapter 597 Zhou Mo, he broke the record again

2.2 billion.

When Zhou Mo heard this number, he suddenly found it hard to believe.

How can it be so high?
Why?

Although Zhou Mo is quite confident about the box office of "The Students", to be honest, the result of 2.2 million is still a bit exaggerated for him.

He originally thought that with the help of the June exam, he could push the movie's first-day box office to 1.8 million at most, which would have broken his previous movie's first-day box office record.

But 2.2 million...

This result is almost catching up with the previous life's "The Mermaid".

Although "The Mermaid" had another explosion thanks to the "last movie ticket" promotion, which led to a surge in the box office performance of Chinese-language films.

But Zhou Mo thought about it for a while and decided that as long as "The Students" could maintain a good reputation in the future, there would still be more than one chance for a reversal even if there was no such publicity opportunity.

A typical example is that the results of the June exam will be released in a week.

And this wave will definitely attract a group of audiences to the movie.

"So, it seems possible to break through 3 billion?" Zhou Mo suddenly realized.

Thinking of this, he instantly lost his composure.

Originally, he had hoped to achieve a major breakthrough in the domestic box office with "The Mermaid".

But now it seems that there is no need to wait for "The Mermaid", it is not impossible to rely on "The Students".

In this case, Zhou Mo immediately gave instructions to the person in charge on the phone.

"In this case, part of the previous promotional plan can be changed. Let the company add more promotional funds to fully stimulate the potential box office of the movie."

Although the screen-sweeping propaganda may indeed cause some people to feel bored.

But to be honest, intensive bombardment of information input is indeed one of the simplest and fastest-acting ways of attracting target customers in the public relations field.

Of course, the premise is that the direction is right.

If, like some companies, you go in the wrong direction, the more exposure you get, the more doomed you will be.

The main point is to add fuel to the fire of the company's demise.

On the other side, the person in charge was also very happy.

Next, it’s time for him to show his skills.

"Yes!"

call ended.

When the other people heard Zhou Mo's request, they had already vaguely guessed the situation of the movie.

It must be a good performance, and not just ordinary good.

Otherwise I wouldn't be so excited.

After waiting for Zhou Mo to hang up the phone, they couldn't wait to ask, "Director Zhou, how much is the movie box office? Why are you so excited?"

"2.2 million." Zhou Mo said.

The leading actors looked at each other and their reactions were exactly the same as Zhou Mo's just now.

"How many?"

"2.2 million." Zhou Mo said again.

next second.

Teng.

Guo Jingfei suddenly sat on the sofa, muttering to himself.

"2.2 million, 2.2 million..."

Looking at Li Guangjie, he had a similar reaction.

"It's over 200 million. It's so high."

Lei Jiayin swallowed his saliva and said, "Director Zhou, our data should break the record."

Zhou Mo nodded.

"Of course, and the breakthrough is quite a lot, tens of millions."

"What if the price goes up further in the future..." Bai Ke followed up with a question.

"Yes, there is a high probability that you will break records one after another." Zhou Mo looked around at the people and told them what they wanted to hear the most: "In other words, if everything goes well, you should be the holder of the box office record."

Hearing this, Guo Jingfei suddenly let out a cry and stood up again.

"Record holder!" Then he kicked the foot of the bed with his toes and lay back down with a look of pain on his face.

Everyone:...

Forget it.

Leave him alone.

After taking a few deep breaths, Li Guangjie calmed down.

"Director Zhou, the box office of our movie is much higher than expected, right? Why is it so high?"

Yes.

Why is it so high?

Everyone has this doubt in their mind.

Although "The Students" is not an art film, it is not a pure commercial film either.

There are indeed some shocking and depressing contents in it.

Gao Ying's line can indeed be considered a small achievement.

It does look good.

But the story of Su Ming is a bit uncomfortable.

Although at the end of the movie, Su Ming found his own career and developed his own career.

But no matter what, for an ambitious young man in his twenties, returning home and starting over is an unavoidable choice.

However, Zhou Mo feels that some of the negative emotions towards watching movies are actually not a big deal.

There may be depressing content, or it may make people feel helpless.

The most important thing to increase movie box office is to make people feel emotional resonance.

Once the emotional resonance is reached, it doesn't matter even if there is repressed content.

There are many depressing parts in "Dying to Survive". One person died of illness, another died of a car accident, and the protagonist's own family had a lot of messy things, and he even went to jail in the end.

Isn't the story depressing?

Definitely depressing.

But the box office is still not small.

This is the fighting power of emotional resonance.

And "Students" also achieved this.

"What's more, there is this guy. To be honest, this guy's box office appeal is actually quite strong." Zhou Mo pointed at Guo Jingfei who was still squirming on the bed.

Everyone looked at Guo Jingfei in the direction of the finger, then looked away.

This is quite true.

Since "Victory is Justice", Guo Jingfei has been one of the most popular male stars among the Mesozoic male stars.

Coupled with the subsequent support of the "TFBois" group, this guy's traffic is really not to be underestimated.

And apart from Guo Jingfei, the influence of the other people is no less.

Among the several leading actors in the crew, basically everyone has his or her own representative work, and very popular characters and images.

These are all real box office appeals.

"So, will we be busy next?" Fan Qiaoqiao asked.

"Of course. What's the matter, Sister Qiaoqiao?"

Fan Qiaoqiao glanced at Zhou Mo and smiled, "Whether it's there or not, it has to be there. All my time this month has been allocated to "Xinxin Xueshi"."

Zhou Mo looked at the others again.

"You guys? Now you know the situation. With such good results, we will definitely be working non-stop in the next few days. Everyone should try to arrange their time in advance."

"Don't worry, Director Zhou. We have already arranged the promotion for the movie a month in advance." Everyone assured.

"Okay, then the next step is the road show this afternoon. You can take a break first. We will set off on time at 2:30."

After explaining everything, Zhou Mo called the company again and asked them to verify the data again. If there was no problem, it could be released.

A moment later, the first-day box office data of "The Students" was announced as 2.2 million.

That sentence once again appeared in the minds of many people in the entertainment industry.

"Zhou Mo, he broke the record again."
