September 3rd was a slightly rainy day.

After breakfast, Fatty Wei stared at the box office report on the Internet with a joyful excitement.

Of course, he was not happy about the box office of "Buried". After all, the box office on the second day was also four million, with no change from yesterday. If there were no accidents, four million a day would have been the limit of the box office of "Buried".

After all, it’s just one cinema chain, and the box office is just this much at best.

What made Fatty Wei happy was that the box office of "Capital" did not continue to rise like other movies. Instead, it dropped by three million, and the box office was only seven million on the second day.

Seven million, although it is still an insurmountable mountain for "Buried Alive", but for "Capital" which invested 30 million...

Are you kidding me?

The box office on the first day was 10 million, and on the second day it was 7 million, so how much was it on the third day?

There are more and more others, but you are getting less and less...

You are so happy, little brother.

Fatty Wei looked at the pre-sale tickets online and the crowded seats, and he was so gloating that he laughed like a pig.

Comfortable.

"Brother Wei, is it okay for us to gloat over other people's misfortunes like this?"

"What do you know? I have a grudge against him."

"Oh, what vengeance?"

"Wife-stealing... there are some things you shouldn't ask, you know?"

“Ohhhh.”

In the office of Remote Entertainment Company, Qian Zhong subconsciously looked at Fatty Wei's head and suddenly felt that his head was a little green.

However, after seeing the unfriendly look in Fatty Wei's eyes, he finally didn't dare to ask anything.

Everyone has a long past that is too painful to look back on. Only by crossing this long river can a person grow.

Fatty Wei seems to have grown up.

Qian Zhong suddenly thought of this sentence.

"What are you two doing?" Lu Yuan came out of the bathroom after brushing his teeth and yawned slightly.

He has been staying in the company for the past two days and has not gone out. His cell phone has been turned off.

He has been in a gloomy mood for the past two days.

The power of online trolls is very strong. Whenever Lu Yuan opens his phone, three or four headlines will pop up. Among these three or four headlines, there must be one that trolls Lu Yuan...

There are all kinds of criticisms, and they are very good at spreading false information. Every day you can see a few fans asking Lu Yuan to get out of the director circle, saying that Lu Yuan has ruined Chinese films and set a very bad precedent!

Lu Yuan felt upset when he saw the thief!

I only embezzled 210,000 yuan. Is it as serious as you say?

What a psycho!

Lu Yuan originally wanted to clarify things on Weibo, but then he thought, what is he clarifying?

Does that mean he only embezzled 210,000 yuan, not 800,000 yuan?

Oh my god!

Isn't this just slapping yourself in the face?

"No... Ayuan, good news, the box office of "Capital" the next day was only 7 million!"

"Seven million? It's dropping so fast? Ten million on the first day, seven million on the second day? It's dropping instead of rising?"

"Hahahaha, of course. If you don't believe me, just look at the internet, everyone is criticizing Shen Lianjie and Capital City."

"oh?"

Lu Yuan took the phone from Fatty Wei and after reading the comments on the forum, his unhappy mood suddenly improved.

"Rubbish director, did you eat all the 30 million?"

"What the hell is this? What the hell is this!"

"Rubbish, trash, what the hell are you doing?"

"Did you eat S? F*ck!"

"Shen Lianjie, do you really want to destroy Chinese movies? Thirty million and you made this kind of shit? Boycott, we won't watch your movies anymore..."

“…”

When Lu Yuan saw the words “You want to know how to ruin Chinese movies”, he suddenly laughed.

Is this all the fun of trolls trolling?

The trolls stood on the moral high ground and put the righteous hat of Chinese movies on people's heads, constantly criticizing...

At this moment, he suddenly felt that he and Shen Lianjie were brothers in distress!

Wait, that’s not right, it seems that Shen Lianjie was criticized even more harshly!

Human beings are such strange animals. When they see someone who is more miserable than themselves, they feel happy no matter how unhappy they are.

"Fatty Wei, have a cigarette!"

"Didn't you say you quit smoking?"

"I've quit smoking for two days..."

"Does two days of abstinence count as abstinence? I can't give it to you. Didn't you ask me to supervise you before?"

"Two days of abstinence is enough! You've been supervising for two days and you're tired too... Seeing how hard you've worked in the box office these past two days, how about letting you be less tired?"

"That makes sense. Xiao Zhong, go buy some cigarettes..."

"I have to buy it again?"

"Nonsense, if you don't go, who will? Didn't you hear Ayuan say that I'm too tired these past two days? I need to rest. Can I go buy it?"

“The money…”

"Why talk about money? What's our relationship? It's too formal. Go ahead."

“…”

Looking at the direction where Qian Zhong left without saying anything, Lu Yuan frowned and stared at Fatty Wei.

"I think you're a bit shameless."

"Ayuan, you are not a good person either."

"Who said that? You and I are not the same kind of people..."

"Yes, you are not the same kind of people. You are a very bad person. At least I can't think of such a bad idea as throwing firecrackers into someone's car!"

"Actually, I'm a simple person." Lu Yuan sighed and looked out the window, seeming a little sad. "It's life that has made me less simple..."

"Pooh!"

The more Fatty Wei looked at Lu Yuan, the more disgusting he felt about him. He spat fiercely and was about to smoke a cigarette to continue thinking about the filming progress of "The Wanderer" when the door of the company opened and Qian Zhong returned with nothing in his hands.

"Where's the cigarette?"

"It seems that a guest has arrived..."

"Guests? What guests?"

Fatty Wei subconsciously looked at the door, only to see three or four cars parked there, and at the same time, several familiar people walked over with eager smiles on their faces.

Fatty Wei was stunned after looking at these people.

Liu Mingrui, vice president of Tianqin Cinemas, and Li Cong, son of Wanjia CEO?

Also, Lu Yuan’s rich second-generation girlfriend?

There’s nothing strange about Lu Yuan’s rich second-generation girlfriend coming, but what’s the meaning of the other two people coming?

Fatty Wei narrowed his eyes.

Lu Yuan stretched and smiled faintly. After considering the popularity on the Internet and the guidance of the trolls, Lu Yuan suddenly understood something.

Are you here?

…

Liu Mingrui and Li Cong originally thought that Wang Jinxue, the investor, could decide everything, so they went to Wang Jinxue to discuss the screening from the beginning.

They said all kinds of nice things, but they didn't expect Wang Jinxue to say that she couldn't make the decision and wanted to ask Lu Yuan.

Who is Lu Yuan?

Just a little-known director...

Birds don't usually make a sound.

But at this time, they could only follow Wang Jinxue to find Lu Yuan.

Meet this little director.

When they saw this "remote" entertainment company, they were quite speechless.

This company is really...

It's so crude, no wonder the prologue of "Buried" was shot like that...

They met Lu Yuan.

They thought Lu Yuan would be very respectful, even enthusiastic, when he saw them.

It turned out that Lu Manzi was as barbaric as the legend said.

There are only two choices!

Either cooperate or get out!

They didn't even give them a second way out, not even asking for negotiation.

Moreover, from beginning to end, Wang Jinxue stood beside Lu Yuan without saying a word. Her originally powerful aura seemed to have subsided at this moment...

It seemed that she had become Lu Yuan's assistant.

"Leave some space for us so we can meet again in the future. Your share is so high, we can't make much. Even a famous director would only charge this much!"

"See you later then."

“…”

"Can't we discuss it?"

"See you later, Fatty Wei, the tea is cold..."

"Less. Your request for 41 is too much. Besides, you didn't authorize us first. The most you can ask for is 40 like Tianhe..."

"See you later." Lu Yuan smiled politely, stood up and shook his head.

"Okay! Damn it, 41 is 41, fuck!"

Li Cong's face turned pale and he was sweating profusely, but he could do nothing about this bastard Lu Yuan.

This person is so rude. In such hot weather, doesn't he turn on the air conditioner?

Liu Mingrui was speechless as he looked at the tea.

Even the tea we were given tasted bad!

They all suspected that the tea was expired!

Li Cong and Liu Mingrui came quickly and left quickly.

The purpose of their visit was to sign the screening rights for "Buried Alive".

I was very depressed when I left.

Although they obtained the screening rights, the high profit margin left them speechless.

"Haha, your subordinates are all a bunch of blind bastards! Now that I've signed a high profit-sharing agreement, are you satisfied?"

"Your men are the same?"

"Let's wait and see who has the higher box office!"

"Yes, let's wait and see! Haha! The box office competition has just begun!"

"hehe!"

…

"I didn't realize you're quite good at business." Wang Jinxue suddenly looked at Lu Yuan after the two left.

"Not bad." Lu Yuan nodded slightly.

He didn't understand whether to do business or not, but he just wanted to vent his anger...

Who made these two cinema chains ignore them even though they made them run their legs off?

Now?

Now it feels good!

This breath of air feels so good!

"Why is your phone turned off these days?"

"The mobile phone doesn't work very well. There is often no signal."

"Do you think I will believe your lies?"

"If you don't believe me, I can't help it..."

"The September box office war has officially begun, you need to prepare a little bit..."

"What are you preparing for? Didn't it start a long time ago?"

"No, the box office war officially began after Buried Alive joined the battlefield..." Wang Jinxue glanced at Lu Yuan calmly, her beautiful eyes showing some deep meaning, "Did you expect them to come looking for you?"

"I didn't expect that."

"oh?"

"I have a question..." Lu Yuan suddenly stared at Wang Jinxue.

"Do the trolls who criticize Wanjia and Tianqin Cinemas on the Internet have anything to do with you?"

"Why do you ask that?" Wang Jinxue looked at Lu Yuan, her eyes still indifferent.

"No... I always feel like there's someone behind the scenes manipulating all of this... It's weird."

"Aren't you the person standing behind the scenes?" Wang Jinxue suddenly laughed, and her smile was beautiful and bright.

"It's not me..." Lu Yuan shook his head.

"Oh, then it all seems to be a coincidence."

"Yeah?"

"What do you think?"

"Haha, it must be a coincidence." Lu Yuan also nodded and looked outside the house.

The box office war has indeed begun.

Is Buried Alive okay?
