Entertainment: The joy of being a director is beyond your imagination

Chapter 145. Investigating me? Then don’t blame me for investigating back! Xiaobing!

"Hand-on is fine, but anal is not."

Pei Ran was also confused. Why was Fatty Fan so excited about the topic of anal sex? Did she have a fetish for it?

Then Mr. Pei can only say that he has unique insights into the treatment of constipation.

Fatty Fan on the other end of the phone heard this and said lazily, "You will be fined for using puns."

"You were the first to use the pun, so I'll deduct your money first."

"To be honest, I'm rich."

"Then I won't pretend anymore. I'll reveal my cards. I'm even richer." Pei Ran was not willing to be outdone. When it comes to talking skills, Mr. Pei currently has no rivals.

But obviously.

Fatty Fan was not a pushover either. "Really? If my calculations are correct, then the wealthy President Pei has almost drained all your savings due to the huge initial investment in the Maoyan app, such as the movie copyright licensing fees and the installation of machines, right?"

"Although I cannot deny that this project will make you a lot of money in the future, it will take time to recover the cost of this thing... In other words, Mr. Pei is already stretched to the limit, right?"

Pei Ran's eyelids twitched.

This woman's words really hurt my lungs.

She was right. The initial investment in the Maoyan app did stretch Pei Ran's capital chain to the limit. Movie copyright licensing fees, equipment installation, technology research and development... each of these items was a big expense.

It can be said that most of the money he earned from his previous films was thrown into it.

This is also the reason why Pei Ran suddenly developed Happy Muggles.

However, once the box office dividends from "Sunset" arrive, I will be rich again...it's just a matter of time after all.

"You investigated me... and you investigated me so thoroughly?"

"Hehe, what's wrong with checking? Mr. Pei can also check me."

When the mouth is open, the tongue is like a lotus; when the mouth is closed, the sperm is held in and the jade is spit out.

Fan Xiaopang’s language skills are indeed excellent. The pun he said… Mr. Pei didn’t know how to respond for a moment.

Fatty Fan continued, "Before you check me, why don't you have a video chat? Otherwise, you might get confused after not seeing each other for so long and make the wrong check again."

No one gave Pei Ran a chance to speak.

After hanging up the phone, the QQ video call came.

Pei Ran took a glance.

The silk nightgown stuck to her body, revealing her curvy figure. She was lying on the bed with her chin propped up, exuding an unconcealable laziness. Her eyes were half-closed, and the maturity of Bingbing was truly dazzling.

Compared to a beautiful mature woman like Liu Wanqing.

Fan Xiaobing is obviously a beautiful young woman, more tender than a mature woman and more attractive than a young girl.

Pei Ran stared at the deep yet snow-white ravine, but soon moved his gaze upwards, staring at her extremely full and crystal red lips and said, "You're calling me dressed like this, right?"

"Like it?"

"like."

"How much do you like it?" Fat Fan smiled charmingly.

“I liked it so much that I took a screenshot.”

"You can take a look in bed, but if it leaks out... don't blame me for sending the lawyer's letter to Bu Pei Media." Fat Fan kept smiling, but he raised his hand and gave the screen a middle finger.

Pei Ran withdrew his gaze.

He turned around and continued to check the daily activity data of Maoyan app that had just been sent to him, as well as the user suggestions left by Han Jianu, and asked, "So, you called me... just to talk nonsense and make fun of me for not having money? There is nothing serious at all!"

"Why don't you have anything to do?" Fatty Fan curled his lips to show his dissatisfaction, "I am just concerned about you..."

"By the way, you can show off that the gossip you told me was true, and then make fun of me for becoming a pauper, right?" Pei Ran continued.

"It's just my opinion."

"Then Master Fan Xiaopang, are you willing to help me?"

“How much do you want?!” Fat Fan waved his hand.

"Well...cooperating with Happy Muggles will probably cost around 5-6 million. My fourth film cost around 50-60 million. Naturally, the more projects Maoyan can offer, the better."

Hear the words.

Fatty Fan still had a cocky expression on his face, "I can't help you with money, but as for other things... you can ask for anything you want, little brother!"

"Heh." Pei Ran sneered.

Feeling looked down upon, Fat Fan was a little angry.

But thinking about the amount Pei Ran just mentioned...she decided to help him out. For example, she would not deduct money from the pun Pei Ran mentioned.

Then she also told Pei Ran the purpose of her visit, "On October 10, Guanyin Bridge will be screened in Dongjing. Can you come and support me, little brother?"

"July isn't even over yet, and you've already booked me for October?"

"Who made you so busy, little brother?" Fatty Fan smacked his lips. "I called you a while ago, but you didn't even answer. I sent you messages and QQ messages, but you didn't reply."

"..."

At that time, Pei Ran was in the crew of Burning Sun.

Although I saw it, I didn’t reply.

"I can't guarantee that I'll be able to make it."

"It doesn't matter. Your own business is the most important. If you can make it in time to come and show your support to me, I will thank you in my own way. If you can't make it..."

"You won't thank me?"

"You can't even catch up, and I'm thanking you? You're greedy, aren't you, little brother?"

Pei Ran curled his lips, "You got the cause and effect wrong. If you are willing to give something to your brother, then I will rush over to support you no matter what you say. But I have to be the one to shut up, so what can you do... Tsk tsk, you are not sincere."

Hear the words.

Fan Xiaobing thought for a few seconds, then the little hand that was supporting her charming face began to slide down and pull open her collar... ready to give something now.

Pei Ran stared at it intently, afraid of missing it.

But he said honestly, "Who do you think I am? Can you control me just by my looks?"

Upon hearing this.

Fatty Fan put his hand down suddenly, "Okay then."

"..."

Grass.

I should have waited until she revealed it before I started showing off.

"Since Director Pei doesn't want sex, then...how about I act in your film? The kind that doesn't require pay?"

"Haha, how come you're eating and taking at the same time?"

"Okay, then I'll be in your movie, don't forget to pay me."

How shameless! Pei Ran complained in his heart.

But on second thought...it would be a good idea to let Fan Xiaopang play the female landlord A Xiang in Detective Chinatown. In the previous life of Detective Chinatown, this role was played by Yaya.

He has few scenes, but there is nothing wrong with his acting.

But the role itself is beautiful, mysterious and slightly aggressive. Yaya, who has a gentler appearance and temperament, can play the role but it is not particularly good. On the contrary, a mature sister type like Fan Xiaopang is more in line with the setting of the heroine A Xiang, and can even add a sense of complexity of a femme fatale.

In addition, there is the international commercial value that Fan Xiaopang brings... If we really let her come, there will be many benefits.

Most importantly, she's free.

So Pei Ran agreed immediately.

Seeing Pei Ran agreed so readily, Fatty Fan actually felt a little regretful. She tentatively asked, "You know me, my stinky brother. I only talk about wealth, but in fact, I am already poor..."

"Don't listen, don't listen, the bastard is chanting sutras."

"You little bastard! You don't want to accept my toast, right? I'm just being polite to you, but you take it seriously?! You really want me to participate in the film, but you don't even pay me!"

"correct."

"Okay, okay, when we meet again, if I can let you see my butt, I'll take your last name!"

"Humph, who are you threatening? Not only will I look, I'll also touch it!"

"How dare you! If you dare to touch me, I will break your hand!"

Ah.

Pei Ran stretched out his hands and posed in a bodybuilding pose, showing off his biceps. "You, Fan Xiaobing, with your tiny arms and legs, you want to break me? It's more likely to be broken by pinching than by breaking."

"You want to break my biceps? Stop yelling."

"Damn you dog man!"

……

Finished the call with Fat Fan.

Pei Ran called Han Jianu in.

He had just seen some good user suggestions and thought it was worth a try. It would not only improve Maoyan's social system, but also perhaps take the opportunity to increase the first-day box office of "The Sun Also Rises".

Activities like giving away movie Easter eggs when buying tickets, ticket stub re-creation competitions, etc., may be considered redundant by people who are obsessed with "letting go" in future generations, but at this point in time in 2011, they can be said to be very novel activities.

Maybe it can also attract a lot of Maoyan’s “seed users”.

After discussing these ideas with Han Jianu and confirming the feasibility of these suggestions, Pei Ran assigned the task and asked them to upgrade the Maoyan app and develop these functions.

Of course, these features are limited to Burning Sun.

After Han Jianu left.

Pei Ran took Liu Wanqing to a restaurant.

I am preparing to have a meal with the CEO of ByteDance to discuss the possibility of future cooperation. He is one of the leaders of future Internet giants. If I don’t invest and make a lot of money...it will be really hard.

But obviously there is no such thing as collaboration.

It’s not something that can be finalized over a meal.

Even if both parties have the intention to cooperate, the details and interests still need to be carefully considered.

This kind of cooperation with Happy Muggles is not exactly the same.

So there is no way to rush it.

Time quickly came to the day of the premiere of "The Sun Also Rises".

Transformers 3, which premiered in China on July 45, now firmly occupies 25% of the screenings and % of the prime time slots, while other films can only take up the remaining screenings and slots.

There is nothing we can do about it.

The movie Transformers 3 is very special nowadays. It has nothing to do with the Domestic Film Protection Month. Its attendance rate and box office reputation are so amazing that many small cinemas have even given up on other Chinese-language movies and only show Transformers 3 in the theaters!

However, "The Sun Also Rises" started large-scale screening with 30% of the screenings and 20% of the showtimes, while the search results were slightly inferior, with only 25% of the screenings and 15% of the showtimes.

It can be said that apart from these three.

Other films can't even serve as a foil.

However, due to the ticket subsidy activities and discount activities of Maoyan App, and the fact that Transformers 3 and Burning Sun are not the same audience.

On the day of its premiere, "Burning Sun" was still very popular.

The search for the same suspense movie category as Burning Sun is a big problem~
It can be said that it is not as good as the best, but not as good as the worst.

One day passed.

No need to wait until the next morning.

The Maoyan app has already compiled the box office data of the two films on the day of their premiere.

Search the first day box office of 36 million yuan.

The Sun Also Rises took in 61 million yuan on its first day.

with no doubt.

The Burning Sun has directly set a new record for the first-day box office in the suspense film market, and it has directly raised the box office by more than 20 million compared to the previous film, The Accidental Detective! !

This data did bring some small shock to the film industry.

"Awesome! I thought Pei Ran only knew how to control women, but I didn't expect he could also control the box office... Over 60 million! This is really going to take off!!"

"I really like "The Burning Sun"! It's so good!! The film is about solving crimes, human nature, and jokes in an orderly manner. It really makes people eager to watch it! But what I think is the most amazing thing is... This movie actually has a plot between men! ”

"The box office is so high!"

"No need to guess. I guess someone will come and say soon, look, look, Director Pei has cheated the ticket sales again. He is relying on gimmicks to gain box office traffic again! I am too lazy to criticize him!!"

"There's really nothing to criticize this time. Apart from the quality of the movie itself and the pre-screening publicity, Maoyan is actually the biggest contributor. You can choose seats and buy tickets online, and it's much cheaper. You can also draw a chance to get a free ticket... With so many ticket subsidy activities added up, it's hard for the box office to be low."

"But I have to say, cat's eye is really useful!"

“Push! Push! Push hard for me!!”

The existence of Maoyan not only temporarily calmed down Pei Ran's haters, but also created a convenient way to buy tickets for fans, and President Pei also made money.

Three birds with one stone.

But one of the birds will definitely not stay still for long.

Just because the black fans are being honest for now doesn’t mean they will be honest in the future.

Who knows when they will pop up and shout that Pei Ran's Burning Sun can get such a high box office, it's all because of Maoyan's ticket subsidy event! If there is no such preferential event, no dog will go to watch this kind of drama between men!
Or maybe, Transformers 3 made over 3 million yuan on the first day purely by selling tickets, and you, Pei Ran, relied on the three means of "ticket subsidies, word of mouth, and cross-circle marketing" to barely reach half of the first-day box office of Transformers ?
It’s really a dish!!

Like this kind of speech.

That's just black for the sake of being black.

Transformers 3 is a box office hit after the first two films, not to mention it is a Hollywood classic, so it would be rare for the box office to be low...

Fortunately, Pei Ran no longer cares about the comments of these black fans.

And, in fact.

Pei Ran shouldn't be the one feeling uncomfortable.

It should be Director Kai Ge.

He never expected...

Pei Ran, who was criticized for relying on hyping up women to gain traffic for his movies, was thought to have turned over a new leaf when he saw that there were no scandals about his movie as it was about to be released.

But who the hell knew... this kid has endless tricks!
……

"Old Chen, please don't do this. I can't stand it."

Old man Kai Ge’s young wife Chen Hong frowned, a blush now appeared on her face, and her charming body, which still had charm, kept twisting slightly because of old man Kai Ge’s big hands.
