After "Chungking Express" was released, it was a good thing for both Zhou Yiyang and Moonlight Girl. At least they no longer had to be kidnapped by public opinion.
Zhou Yiyang also took this opportunity to immediately set the release date for the highly anticipated animated film.
Many people are discussing them now, so don’t miss out on this popularity.
Tang Yue sat in the room, glanced at her phone, and raised the corners of her mouth slightly:
"That's pretty good. A lot of people who used to curse us have stopped cursing us now, and are even buying pre-orders for our new movie."
Su Yin exclaimed, turned around, and looked at Tang Yue with a bit of surprise: "Tangtang, how did you know about this? Did someone tell you this specifically?"
"That's not the case," Tang Yue raised her eyebrows and said with a smile, "I just marked those foul-mouthed people. I thought they would fight back against the odds, but I didn't expect them to give in so quickly."
Wang Xingrui stretched out her body and immediately started laughing:
"Tangtang, you're really too free! But I'm still happy to hear this kind of thing. After all, they were so pessimistic about our movie in the beginning."
"The tide is turning so fast right now." Lin Xuan'er put down her equipment and walked over to the others with a smile. "I just checked out the reviews. They're all saying that President Zhou has done something big this time, and there will be more and more good movies coming out in the future."
"Really?" Su Yin blinked, and there seemed to be a hint of distrust in her eyes: "Why do I feel that everyone is a little too optimistic to think so?"
"I don't know," Lin Xuan'er shrugged. "Regardless, Chungking Express has received very good reviews. And since it's a film that relies heavily on its actors and plot, it's a big plus for the four of us."
Tang Yue hummed, and then said:
"That's true. I just took a look at Weibo, and there were quite a few people praising our acting skills. Not to mention people like Xiao Xiao Su who have already been recognized, the three of us have proven ourselves this time."
Su Yin smiled gently, standing in the winter sunshine, and everyone was mesmerized by her smile:
"Well, your acting is already very good. It's just that everyone was paying attention to something other than your acting skills before."
While the four of them were all happy about their new reputation, Zhou Yiyang had already slowly returned to the room with a relieved smile on his face.
To be honest, when he invested in the filming of "Nezha: The Devil Child Comes into the World" this time, he encountered quite a lot of resistance.
There are also fewer investors than before. Although everyone believes in Zhou Yiyang's vision and level, they are still unsure about such an animated film.
After all, before this movie, the box office record of animated films did not even exceed 500 million.
The investment in the production of this movie alone has exceeded 10 billion, not including the marketing costs and the management fees paid to theaters during the Spring Festival.
It can be said that if it were not for the guidance of Zhou Yiyang and the gimmick of Moonlight Girl's dubbing behind it, this movie would probably not have been able to complete the investment.
Although the bulk of the cost was paid out of Zhou Yiyang’s own pocket.
It's just that he can't show his stress in front of other employees and actors.
When the pre-sale started today, Zhou Yiyang's heart immediately became nervous.
He was very worried about something unexpected happening. After all, there is a big difference between cartoons and live-action movies. Maybe no one would buy it!
However, when the pre-sale of the movie started, Zhou Yiyang looked at the suddenly skyrocketing box office data, and an expression of relief finally appeared on his face.
"The first-day box office has already exceeded 100 million! Mr. Zhou, that's amazing!"
At this time, Bai Yangyu pushed the door open and walked in. He glanced at Zhou Yiyang, who was sitting on a chair leisurely drinking tea. He thought to himself that he was indeed CEO Zhou, as he could be so calm.
"Mr. Zhou, the pre-sale results are in! They're much better than we expected! I think this has something to do with the strong reputation of Chungking Express. It proves that no matter the genre, as long as you make it well, you'll definitely find an audience!"
"Yeah." Zhou Yiyang nodded calmly and said softly, "Didn't I tell you long ago that our movie will do well at the box office this time?"
"But now there are also many people saying that our film borrows from myths and legends, and that we are just trying to capitalize on the popularity of the film. The final box office will definitely not be satisfactory."
"Really?" Zhou Yiyang touched his chin and chuckled after hearing this. "I feel like, as long as it's a movie we make, there will always be people who are dissatisfied."
"Ah," Bai Yangyu shrugged. "Some people do this on purpose. They just don't want to see us succeed so smoothly! It's a pity they can't change the audience's mind. Anyway, judging by the current pre-sale results, the audience is still very confident in our movie."
"Yeah," Zhou Yiyang nodded. "But don't bother these four with the promotion work for this movie. After all, they're just dubbing, so don't give people the impression that they're stealing the show. Besides, their main focus now is on the Spring Festival Gala."
"Of course," Bai Yangyu hummed, then suddenly thought of something and burst into laughter. "I remember a lot of people still don't know that the Moonlight Girls will be singing three songs in a row at the Spring Festival Gala this year, right? Considering how enthusiastic netizens are about these four people, if they knew about this, they'd probably be pissed off to death!"
Zhou Yiyang turned around to look at Bai Yangyu, who was beaming with joy, and said with a smile, "It's not that exaggerated, but the four of them did break the record during this Spring Festival Gala. I'm afraid many people didn't expect it."
"Yeah, at first I thought it was fake. There was only so much time, and the four of them had it all to themselves for twenty minutes. That's incredible! Anyway, I think after this Spring Festival Gala, their status will probably be elevated to a higher level."
"Well," Zhou Yiyang patted Bai Yangyu's shoulder and said with a smile, "Don't pay attention to them. Don't forget whose agent you are. Helian Bei and Luo Chenlinghu will both be performing in this year's Spring Festival Gala, so pay more attention to them."
"I know, Mr. Zhou!" Bai Yangyu laughed. "How could I possibly forget them all! But compared to Moonlight Girl, I now feel that Helian Bei's star power is a little less. If it weren't for the fact that time was running out, I think the Moonlight Girls would have been invited to the New Year's Eve performance in America this year. They're so popular!"
