Chapter 617: Prelude to the release of "Red Sun" 1
Song Fang’s mother, his real mother! I didn’t expect my son would get such high scores. It felt like I was living in a dream.
Even Teacher Wang, who was so angry that he quit the group, didn't try to keep him and directly called Song Fang's father.
Song Fang's father inherited his father's business. He is the type of old-fashioned domineering boss and has his own capital chain empire selling home appliances.
At this time, Song Fang's father was taking on a big order worth one million.
He was surrounded by bodyguards in black, and facing him was a vulnerable competitor and partner.
The phone rang at the right time. Song Fang's father pursed his lips. His eyes were three parts cold, three parts soft, and four parts cold. He nodded apologetically to the partner, answered the phone, and said in a low voice: "Woman, you successfully interrupted my contract."
Song Fang's mother said in a humiliating voice, "Don't worry about your little company! Something has happened to your son!"
Since he became an adult, Song Fang has never smoked, drank, fought, or done anything that has anything to do with other people.
Even Song Fang's father is used to it.
He thought that the matter that made his wife Tianci call to report must be a big deal. He heard that his son had been getting close to a girl named Fu in his class recently, and he followed her around like a lapdog every day.
Song Fang is 17 years old and is already half a man in all aspects.
Song Fang's father's heart skipped a beat, and in his mind he had already imagined his son getting pregnant by someone else's daughter.
Depend on!
shame!
This is a great shame for the Song family!
This is a shame that cannot be erased even if you kill this son!
Song Fang's father felt very involved in the situation, just like he imagined it. He clenched his fists and was furious. "He is not my son. I don't have a son as wicked as him!"
"That's great!" Song Fang's mother said happily, "Remember what you said today. From now on, he is my son alone."
"The baby I worked so hard to cultivate finally became a god today!"
Song Fang's father: "???"
What kind of god?
Unlucky god?
"My son, in this final exam, tied for third place in the city with the elementary school bully Lu Yubai!"
Song Fang's father was extremely shocked, "He even bribed Lu Yubai to upload the answers to his exam questions?!"
"…What nonsense are you talking about! Teacher Ma called personally! He confirmed that my son got third place in the exam because he inherited my excellent genes!"
It turns out that he relied on his excellent skills and didn't cause any trouble!
Song Fang's father breathed a sigh of relief, and shamelessly asked Song Fang to recognize his ancestry and said, "I said that the seeds I planted personally must be excellent!"
“…”
Song Fang's mother thought her husband was shameless, but she couldn't argue on the phone. "I heard that it was Fu Zhi who gave our son extra lessons. Fu Zhi is such a lovely girl! I think she's good. Don't you know Lu Jingqing? Ask him and see if you can arrange a marriage for the two children? Let the two children spend the rest of their lives together and make progress together?"
Of course Song Fang's father knew Lu Jingqing.
The two of them often deal with each other in business.
This time he came to sign the contract, and in the next private room was Lu Jingqing who was signing the contract with his partners.
Song Fang's father waited specially for Lu Jingqing to sign the contract.
The two good brothers invited Lu Jingqing to dinner, and after three rounds of drinks, he finally told his wife what she really thought.
Song Fang's father said, "Your daughter has done such a great favor to us, the Song family, that we have no other way to repay her except to let my son marry her!"
Lu Jingqing: “…”
"I don't think you want to repay me."
Lu Jingqing smashed the wine glass on the table and stood up: "You are no different from those coquettish bitches outside. You all want to play farmer and snake with me, repaying kindness with hatred!"
Song Fang's father: "..."
Have you discovered all this?
——
On the other side, inside the hot pot restaurant.
"Sister Zhi," Song Fang was in a very good mood as he ate some beef tripe and put it on Fu Zhi's plate. "I heard that cheating, giving private tutoring, etc. will only result in the deprivation of the right to be a class teacher. Qian Wenrui can still continue to be a subject teacher. It's too good for her."
Qian Wenrui is snobbish and selfish. I don’t know how many good kids she has made autistic.
Fu Zhi used chopsticks to stir the tripe on the plate. Hearing this, he raised his eyes, with a cold and arrogant look in his eyes. "People who are calculating and angry usually don't live long."
Moreover, "after she transferred the students from Class 1 and 2, the students' test scores were not as good as those from Class 21, which had a great impact on her career."
Fu Zhi was speaking the truth. After noticing that Qian Wenrui had coughed up blood, he reminded her early in the morning to go to the hospital for a comprehensive check-up. There was an 80% chance that she had cancer.
But seeing Qian Wenrui still jumping around, it is obvious that she didn't take Fu Zhi's words seriously at all.
It really proves the saying that serious illnesses don’t need to be treated because they cannot be cured, and minor illnesses don’t need to be treated because they will pass if you just endure it.
Song Fang didn't understand the twists and turns of medicine.
But he knew that for this final exam for senior high school students, many parents and teachers would evaluate everyone's college entrance examination results based on this score.
He looked at the complete transcript from the city and found that many of the good students in Qian Wenrui's class had surprisingly poor test scores.
It can simply be described as a disaster!
Qian Wenrui has no way of explaining to these parents!
Song Fang thought about it and felt that Fu Zhi did a great job.
Ten years in the east, ten years in the west!
It's time for Qian Wenrui to suffer the backlash.
…
After dinner, I went to the milk tea shop and ordered two cups of milk tea.
It was exactly one o'clock when Fu Zhi and his group walked towards the classroom.
She received a call from Feng Bo.
Fu Zhi recently went abroad and studied at school for a while. She only occasionally asked about the filming of her movie, Red Sun, on her phone.
As the saying goes, every profession has its specialties. Fu Zhi's major does not involve film shooting. She is only responsible for spending money and initializing the script. Then she becomes a hands-off boss and leaves all professional matters to Feng Bo.
"Ms. Fu."
Fu Zhi put on the Bluetooth and said "hmm" softly.
The film was in preparation for more than a month, and basically every time there was something, it was Feng Bo who took the initiative to contact Fu Zhi.
I made many phone calls, big and small, to Fu Zhi.
It's nothing more than letting Fu Zhi finalize the plans for some final related matters.
"It's like this. Several movies that will be broadcast during the Spring Festival have passed the review and will be available for pre-sale on Weibo. If you are free, please log in to Weibo and repost the message for our crew to promote it and generate some heat." Feng Bo attaches great importance to this movie. Although the shooting time was short, it incorporates his many years of hard work.
There is no way he doesn't care about the box office this time.
As a comprehensive means of communication for the entire public sphere, Weibo has brought great convenience to film marketing.
A good Weibo preheating is almost a sign of whether a movie can create sparks!
As the director of the drama "Red Sun", Fu Zhi has no less to do than the two leading actors Ye San and Guang Yuan.
Especially since Fu Zhi's influence is now comparable to that of a second-tier star, Feng Bo wants to arrange for her and Ye Sanguangyuan to take part in some variety shows together to promote the new movie.
But Fu Zhi himself didn't have that intention.
She thinks she has no jokes or funny points, and is too lazy to go on variety shows and chat with people she doesn't know well.
Feng Bo got anxious when he heard this and said bluntly, "Ye Shiyun has a bad reputation and his acting skills were poor before. Netizens have a bad impression of him and don't buy his account at all. As for Guangyuan, although he is an award-winning actor, his movies have been popular but he is not popular in recent years. He has no appeal. If you don't join us in marketing, the major theaters will not schedule a film for us if the Weibo trend is not right!"
Fu Zhi knows a little about scheduling films.
Good movies have many viewers and make a lot of profit. Theaters would like to show the same movie 24 hours a day to attract traffic and make money. However, for some movies with poor reputation or that do not look like they will be big hits, theaters may only schedule one film every four or five days.
Feng Bo said, "It's ok to schedule the film the next day, but I'm most afraid that the dog-like cinema will schedule your film in a hellish way, not only scheduling your film at 1 a.m., but also making the ticket three times more expensive than other movie tickets!"
"Besides, although Red Sun has won numerous awards, it has been labeled as a required reading and examination subject for the college entrance examination. You say that students like it, but can they not resist it?"
"Our starting point is not as good as other movies. If you don't make any progress, our movie will be a complete flop!"
Why did Fu Zhi make this movie? It wasn't because she was short of money, she just wanted to promote her brother Ye Shiyun and teach the Mu family a lesson.
But now?
Judging from what Feng Bo said, as long as she doesn't participate in that variety show, or other promotions, it will be a long time before major theaters give her movie a prime time slot!
She has it so hard!
Fu Zhi expressed his feelings in his circle of friends.
As a result, within a minute after she posted this message, all the lambs to be slaughtered in her WeChat, the first, second and third generation rich people, left messages under her message.
——【Miss, my family owns a chain of hundreds of cinemas in City Z. I will ask them to make a movie for you! 】
——【What's so difficult about this? 】
——[Some cinemas in City S have been arranged. 】
——[Zhizhi, my second uncle has opened several cinemas. I will try my best to build beautiful ones for you! 】
——
Another person who saw the post on WeChat Moments was Gu Yanqi.
Click his tongue.
He looked up at Li Nanli who was sitting at the desk, "Zhi Mei'er is in trouble."
The man's eyes moved from the documents to Gu Yanqi, his eyebrows slightly raised.
"Zhi Mei'er's movie is about to be released, and I'm worried about the movie theater's scheduling," Gu Yanqi handed the phone to Li Nanli, "In addition to my brother, I remember that you and Jiang Jinshu's family have many chain movie theaters across the country. I asked Jiang Jinshu to schedule a screening for our Zhi Mei'er. You can't let my Zhi Mei's movie flop, right?!"
Gu Yanqi made the arrangements with great confidence, talked a lot, and even called Jiang Jinshu.
However, the other party responded that they wanted to make two movies, "Nianbai" and "Wings of Heaven".
Gu Yanqi realized later that Jiang Jinshu’s Lunar New Year film was “Wings of Heaven”.
So this is to promote their own movie, and why not let his sister have a share of the pie.
Gu Yanqi criticized Jiang Jinshu harshly and loudly.
The other party hung up the phone.
Gu Yanqi was very angry and complained to Li Nanli, but he did not get a response from Li Nanli.
He was just about to ask if Li Nanli was too cold and didn't care about his wife's affairs.
When I turned around, I saw Li Nanli sending a message.
It is clearly visible on the WeChat page.
Li Nanli: [Liu Mi, make some arrangements. Find Mr. Jiang and ask him to schedule only Zhizhi's movies in Jiang's and Li's cinemas during the prime time of the Spring Festival. 】
Gu Yanqi: “…”
Yes or you can, brother.
Knowing that the younger one can’t convince him, just go to his father and give him the order!
——
Li Nanli and a group of bigwigs in Fu Zhi's powerful and mysterious circle of friends are quietly trying to help Fu Zhi schedule films during the prime time in the cinema.
Feng Bo, who knew nothing about this, was so anxious that he burst into tears.
When he was filming a movie, he had to coordinate Guang Yuan and Ye San, who disliked each other, and he had to focus on the excitement, rhythm, and visuals of the plot itself... He simply couldn't care about these fancy things.
The movie release market now is different from the past when the Internet was not well developed.
Let's not talk about the distant past, let's just talk about Mu's. The first thing they adapted was Zhang Yuanhui's very popular novel "Nianbai" ten years ago. Not only did Zhang Yuanhui gain 400,000 fans thanks to this book, but the several movies he filmed before were all very popular and left a very good impression on the public.
Even though Mu's previous attempt to market Fu Zhi's helpful and donative personality failed, Zhang Yuanhui just posted a Weibo about the launch of a new drama and it immediately became the second most searched topic.
It is worth mentioning that the number one on the hot search list is Ye Shiyun, who was scolded like a dog and could only stare and shout one, two, three, four, five when acting.
Zhang Yuanhui's Weibo posts were filled with positive reviews. The Mu family had built up a lot of connections in the industry over the years. When a movie is released, Mu Changqing can just contact a few bosses and the scheduling of screenings at various private cinemas is basically secured!
But "Red Sun" is isolated and helpless. Feng Bo is confident that the content and sophistication of the film can surpass Zhang Yuanhui, but due to external factors, he is not sure!
Especially during the Spring Festival, there is fierce competition among various films, and Feng Bo has no control over what the theaters do!
He was so worried that he couldn't sleep for nights.
Especially looking at the hot searches on Weibo, several movies such as "Nianbai", "Wings of Heaven" and "Watching" were frequently searched and received constant positive news, while "Red Sun" was full of negative criticism just because of the leading actors!
He had already estimated that any cinema with its mind would not schedule their films at a time in the human world!
Just as he was thinking about it, someone suddenly added him on WeChat, and the note read: Hello, I am Li Ze from Evergrande Cinema.
! ! ! !
Evergrande Cinema? !
Damn it!
What does that mean? Isn’t this the big cinema under the Li family, the third largest cinema chain in the country? Why add him?
Feng Bo's heartbeat suddenly accelerated, thump thump, one beat louder than the other, and he clicked the "Agree" button without even thinking!
A bold, yet fearful, idea gradually emerged in the minds of everyone present.
He respectfully sent a "Hello".
After all, Li Ze is quite famous in the entertainment industry, and he is a young master from the side branch of the Li family.
He has been in the film industry for many years and has a keen eye!
The person on the other end quickly replied, "I'm here on behalf of Evergrande Cinema to consult you about some movie scheduling matters."
