I was just thinking about taking the arts exam and you said I've been playing supporting roles

Chapter 180 Completely Takes Off~~~
"A new model for selling movie tickets! Pre-sale sales of Love Is Not Blind exceeded 33 on the first day!"

"Zhang Yimou's new film "Love Is Not Blind" tries selling tickets on the Internet, and group buying websites are flooded with orders!"

"The Internet counterattack of low-cost movies! Group buying websites helped "Love Is Not Blind" to achieve a miracle of 33 pre-sales on the first day!"

"It's Zhang Yimou again. Group buying of movie tickets has become a new favorite among young people nowadays!"

……

The next morning, several domestic portal websites including Sina published news about Love Is Not Blind and group buying.

Among these are articles purchased by publicity and promotion agencies, as well as articles published spontaneously by the website.

In short, the pre-sale of "Love Is Not Blind" was a hit.

buzzing-

The phone on the bedside table vibrated.

Teng Huatao, who was sleeping with an actress from "Look at This Family" in his arms, picked up the phone and frowned when he saw the caller ID of his assistant Zhao Zhao.

Calling yourself at this time?

"what happened?"

He pressed the answer button, his voice sounding a little impatient.

"Director Teng, Love Is Not Blind sold 33 on the first day of pre-sale!"

Swish!
The naked Teng Huatao woke up immediately and sat up from the bed. The little star next to him raised his head in confusion.

"70, first day pre-sale?"

"Yes, all the media were reporting this early this morning!"

"This kid is so lucky. Zhang Yimou's title as a producer is still useful!"

Teng Huatao obviously thought it was the result of Zhang Yimou's supervision.

But think about it, if the pre-sale on the first day was 70, doesn’t that mean the total sales over seven days would be more than 200 million?

This pre-sale made Teng Huatao's face look a little ugly.

He may shoot TV series, but he still knows about the situation in movies, after all, the old man is in this circle.

"This movie should do well at the box office!"

“It depends on word of mouth!”

"If your reputation is bad, there will still be backlash, and there will only be more criticism..."

The pre-sale is as popular as the first day.

But if the movie is bad, it will only receive more abuse; refer to Zhang Yimou's "Three Guns"!
Thinking of this, Teng Huatao laughed coldly and said, "Wait until it's released. That kid and that student director won't be able to make a good movie!"

"Director Teng, the news said that this movie opened up a new pattern in ticket sales..."

"Don't listen to the media's hype. They all paid for it. How can you exaggerate a pre-sale price of 70?"

Teng Huatao knows the nature of the media very well. These bastards are exploiting people and sucking their marrow out of them. None of them is a good person.

They do things for money, and if you don't have money, they will blackmail you to death. Teng Huatao has been bribing this group of people for many years.

Whenever he thought about paying tribute, he felt a little distressed.

"All right!"

Zhao Zhao suddenly felt that maybe Teng Huatao was a little stressed out by Chen Jin. The media was unscrupulous, but they couldn't just write nonsense, right?

Zhao Zhao also knew about group buying, but it seemed like this was the first time he heard of selling packages for a certain movie.

If this isn’t a new model, then what is?
However, Teng Huatao was very angry, so she couldn't say much. She just responded with a few words and then hung up the phone.

The next second she turned on the computer and started searching for Didi Tuan.

It would have been fine if he hadn't looked at it, but as soon as he looked at it he found that Chen Jin's endorsement photo was hanging high there. His handsome look made Zhao Zhao a little dazed.

She subconsciously clicked on it and found the activities organized by Didituan.

Ten minutes later, she didn't know why, but she bought a popcorn and drink combo for one person on Double Eleven.

59 yuan, it’s really a great deal.

She decided to secretly watch the movie to see if it was as terrible as Teng Huatao said.

***
"The publicity from the media and Weibo worked!"

"Today's orders are obviously much more than the same period yesterday!"

“We are going to add some more flash sales!”

At noon, looking at the message sent by Chen Hui, Chen Jin smiled slightly and said, "Okay, thank you, Mr. Chen!"

"polite!"

In fact, Chen Hui was also very excited yesterday. He didn't expect that all the activities combined would add nearly 15000 paying users.

This is much more effective than the previous few promotions.

I didn’t expect this kind of group buying of movie tickets would be so popular.

“It seems that there is a reason why Alibaba attaches so much importance to the Double Eleven Festival!”

Alibaba started to build momentum across the entire network a few days ago. This year's Double Eleven shopping event featured a 50% discount on all items, hitting the lowest price of the year, and directly shouted the slogan of the Double Eleven Shopping Festival. It was not known whether it was Chen Jin who gave him the inspiration, or whether Jack Ma originally wanted to organize such a festival.

As a result, group buying websites also responded and directly promoted the Double Eleven Group Buying Festival, which also offered the lowest prices in group buying history.

When it comes to competition, the two companies are not in a competitive relationship.

One is online shopping, the other is offline group buying, which covers almost everything that the Chinese people need to eat, wear, live and travel.

So under such momentum, the concept of Double Eleven Shopping Festival has become more and more deeply rooted in the hearts of netizens. Many people can no longer wait and are waiting for the arrival of Double Eleven so that they can buy the clothes, shoes, etc. that they have longed for.

The traffic on Taobao’s webpage is setting new records every day, and the promotion of “Love Is Not Blind” that can be seen everywhere on the page is also seen by netizens time and time again.

Offline pre-sales have also begun to increase.

Actually, not many people bought tickets offline yesterday, with only more than 2 tickets sold in advance, and many of them bought tickets for the sake of producer Zhang Yimou.

And group buying websites have become the main force.

But today, it's completely different.

With efforts made both online and offline, several leading group buying websites have been sought after by many couples and netizens.

Seeing this trend, Meituan, Lashou and others followed suit and began to modify the prices of their packages, determined to compete with Didi.

The battle of a thousand regiments was fought against the opponents.

Although Didi is now wealthy and looks very powerful, Meituan and Lashou are not just sitting there to do the work. The investors behind them have also begun to make efforts to support this most explosive battle on the Internet.

However, Chen Jin, who was the direct fuse of this battle, acted as if nothing had happened. After finishing his morning class at Beijing Film Academy, he went straight to the School of Film Science.

I will be interviewing several people in the afternoon, mainly senior people in charge of film marketing and event planning.

There are also public relations, legal affairs, etc. These are generally standard personnel in film companies.

"Brother Jin, how much is the pre-sale?"

As soon as he saw Chen Jin, Guo Xun rushed out of the meeting room.

His body was pushed by the chair and he staggered in front of Chen Jin; his eyes were as red as a monkey's, he hadn't shaved his beard, and there was a circle of hair around his chin. Chen Jin was frightened by his appearance.

"Brother, don't tell me you didn't sleep all night?"

"I had a fight with you!"

Sun Ran suddenly came out of the bathroom, his face obviously not looking good: "I was so excited that I didn't sleep all night!"

Chen Jin: “…”

"Sleep, I can't sleep!"

"Why should I sleep too if you can't sleep?"

Chen Jin woke up Sun Ran in the middle of the night and was amused by his excited screams.

He could imagine Guo Xun's sleepless look.

It is quite normal to think about it. A non-professional college student was admitted to Beijing Film Academy for his dream. When he was 30 years old, he felt that he was getting closer and closer to his dream, but the despair of not being able to attract investment almost brought him to the bottom.

But at this time, he met Chen Jin, and his whole life seemed to be turned upside down.

He worked hard to make his debut film, and of course he hoped that this work, which took him many nights and overtime work, would have a good box office.

But in fact, it is difficult for newcomers' works to be recognized by the market.

It’s still Chen Jin!

It's this guy again.

He brought in Zhang Yimou to be the producer of his debut film, something Guo Xun had never dared to imagine in his life.

His own debut work, produced by Zhang Yimou?
In fact, Guo Xun had already cried a little that day, but Sun Ran and Chen Jin didn't know it.

He knew that his dream was within reach.

As long as this movie is released, no matter what the reputation is, at least the box office is guaranteed.

5000 million!
On that day, he silently made a wish in his heart for a box office number that he had never dared to imagine before.

He also felt that even if Zhang Yimou's name was used, it would be difficult to achieve this box office result.

After all, Zhang Yimou is not omnipotent, he is just a figurehead.

But yesterday, just yesterday!

On the first day of pre-sale, the box office of "Love Is Not Blind" exceeded 33.

This is a pre-sale record that has never been achieved by any other Chinese director's debut film.

Even movies by big directors like Zhang Yimou and Chen Kaige only had about 100,000 more pre-sales on the first day.

Ning Hao, whose debut theatrical film "Crazy Stone" took over 05 million at the box office in 2500, has been hailed as the most talented director in China in the past decade.

A piece of fame.

But now, Guo Xun felt that surpassing him was like a piece of cake.

Although this comparison is a bit unfair, 10 compared to 05, but the pre-sale is definitely better.

"Crazy Stone" had no pre-sale box office at all.

"Brother Guo, it's not necessary, ah, we are not necessary!"

Chen Jin felt that Guo Xun was about to cry, and quickly patted his shoulder: "This is just the beginning. You are so excited about the pre-sale of 70. What will happen if our box office reaches several hundred million?"

"For a few hundred million, I'll just go out and run naked!"

Guo Yun yelled, and everyone in the company heard: "I said it!"

Sun Ran: “…”

Chen Jin: “…”

Gong Geer: "..."

The key point is that Gong Geer also said in a funny way: "I can do it too!"

"Fuck you~~"

Who wants to see you running naked? Chen Jin only wants to expose Guo Xun’s dark history.

"Sister-in-law, did you hear it?"

“When the box office breaks 2 million, I’ll ask Lao Liu to come over and make a documentary about the behind-the-scenes of Love Is Not Blind for Lao Guo, so I can submit it for awards and have it screened!”

"Remember, there must be a streaking scene, foreigners love to watch this!"

"Shoot, just shoot!"

Guo Xun was really tough. Sun Ran looked at him unhappily and muttered, "With your beer belly and fat body, who would want to see you naked? I don't even care~~~"

“I love watching!”

Chen Jin smiled and said to Gong Ge, "Old Gong, do you love him too?"

"I don't love anything, don't get involved, I just want to run naked!"

"Why don't you just run naked and sing at the same time? Zheng Jun's song is quite suitable for the occasion!"

"Sing if you want!"

Comrade Lao Gong participated in the 07 Happy Boys competition and was among the top four in Xi'an and top 18 in the country.

"Stop talking nonsense, how much is the pre-sale?"

Guo Xun was extremely anxious.

"Then I said, can you just go to bed?"

"Okay, okay, I'll do anything you ask me to do!"

"Sister-in-law, I heard it. Now he listens to me!"

Chen Jin smiled at Sun Ran, but his eyes looked at the system. The real-time pre-sale figures on it were very clear. To be honest, Chen Jin was a little shocked.

Damn, so many?

It’s only the second day!

And it only took half a day.

"More than 119!"

Chen Jin suddenly said to Guo Xun, and everyone at the table was stunned when they heard the number.

Obviously, I was stunned by this number.

119 million!
In other words, the pre-sale price has increased by nearly 50 today.

At about the same time yesterday, it was only over 20!

More than double?
thump!
Guo Xun suddenly sat down, and Sun Ran next to him was shocked, thinking that he had died suddenly.

"Lao Guo?"

She shouted with a worried look on her face, but Guo Xun just smiled and said, "It's okay, I was just pretending!"

"Your uncle!"

Sun Ran threw a direct punch, almost hitting Guo Xun in the chest.

After all, they were a couple who had been married for many years. Sun Ran just couldn't bear to do it, and finally pinched his chest hard, causing him to scream in pain.

"Should!"

"Sister-in-law, give him more force!"

"Hu~~"

Guo Xun, however, sat there, rubbing his face with his hands, then raised his head with tears in his eyes, glanced at Chen Jin rather embarrassedly, and said somewhat sentimentally: "Brother Jin, thank you, really!"

"My whole family and I thank you..."

"get out!"

Chen Jin had obviously noticed that Sun Ran's eyes were red.

Many people are not without talent, but they lack... someone who can discover them.

There are many good horses, but there are few good horse trainers!

It is precisely because Guo Xun understands this truth that he knows how great an influence Chen Jin has on his life now.

Maybe he will become famous someday in the future, but... definitely not now!

"Go to bed now!"

Chen Jin kicked him, but unexpectedly Guo Xun was so unruly and started crying.

"Photograph!"

Chen Jin was taking pictures with his cell phone, but Guo Xun couldn't help himself.

Sun Ran next to him also started crying. Only she understood how long Guo Xun had persisted in pursuing his dream of becoming a director!
