Chapter 434 Brother Zhi deserves this!

The premiere of "The Wandering Earth" was originally planned to last for a total of thirty-five minutes, that is, fifteen minutes before the movie starts and twenty minutes after it ends.

But the reason why plans are called plans rather than results is because unexpected factors may appear during the execution.

For example, the raincoat I forgot to bring during the crisis period, the sudden inspiration from Party A, or the last LOL game the night before the final exam...

At the premiere, the unexpected factor was that the audience was so excited!

Faced with constant questions and interactions from the audience, the originally planned 20-minute fan interaction session was suddenly extended to more than half an hour.

It wasn't until the premiere hall had to be cleared for the next event that Li Youzhi finally left the theater with Liu Yun and others under the unkind eyes of the theater cleaning lady.

After making an appointment with Liu Yun and others for tomorrow's thank-you banquet for the project team, it was already past 12 noon when Li Youzhi returned to the dormitory.

As soon as he entered the dormitory door, Li Youzhi couldn't wait to lock the door and opened his system panel - the two suggested tasks just now had been refreshed, and Brother Zhi had to endure it for a long time!

With a soft beep from the system, Li Youzhi's luxurious system panel instantly appeared in front of him;

[User: Li Youzhi]

[Appearance: 94 (upgrade completed)]

[Temperament: 96 (upgrading)]

[Voice: 92 (upgrade completed)]

[Amazing value: 36005885 points]

[SS-level reward treasure chest, C-level reward treasure chest to be extracted...]

Immediately, Li Youzhi focused on the two treasure boxes waiting to be extracted in the inventory.

Although the production cost and production cycle of "The Wandering Earth" were the largest and longest that Li Youzhi has ever experienced so far, seeing the SS-level treasure box and C-level treasure box made Li Youzhi feel that his life was complete.

Although they are cute and cute when they are short, they are the best when they are big and long!

It’s not in vain that Brother Zhi spent so much time thinking about it.

All this...it's worth it!

(_)

After thanking himself for his hard work, Li Youzhi immediately took out the two treasure boxes and chose to open them.

Immediately, a golden legend and an elite blue prompt interface appeared in front of him!

[SS treasure chest is opening... Congratulations to the user for obtaining [Talent·Top Aesthetic]. Description: Talent attributes, after fusion, can increase the user's aesthetic level to the full level. After fusion, the user can perceive the beauty of everything and form a memory point. After talent integration, the user's existing aesthetic-related skill level will be increased by +1, including but not limited to painting, music, design, photography, and performance. PS: Everything in this world contains beauty, some obvious and some hidden deep. And now...you have the eyes to spot them! 】

[C-level treasure chest is opening... Congratulations to the user for obtaining the language self-service skill package [Chinese Dialect Proficiency]. Description: Contains 129 dialects from the top ten official language families and eight local language families. PS: 50,000 amazing points for each dialect can be redeemed by yourself. Do you want to experience the barrier-free experience of being able to meet the aunts across the country without suffering any disadvantages due to language barriers? Buy it! 】

What a fool!

Li Youzhi's eyes widened instantly when he saw the two system prompt pages appearing in front of him.

Before this, he had drawn a talent attribute - that is, absolute pitch.

He already has a very clear understanding of the attribute skills of talent type; compared with other single skills, talent type increases the basic upper limit of a certain field!

Take absolute pitch as an example. After integrating this talent, Li Youzhi's understanding and learning ability in music-related fields have reached the top level.

And compared to the absolute sense of sound... this [top-level aesthetic] talent attribute is simply a bug!

Let’s not talk about the wide scope of application of the talent of improving aesthetics... the effect of improving existing aesthetic-related skills alone is completely worthy of this SS-level treasure chest!

What aesthetic-related skills does Brother Zhi have now?

[Intermediate photography] [Intermediate folk music] [Intermediate painting] [Intermediate dance spirit] [Intermediate body imitation/expression control]...

This time, I’m so fat!

Looking at the long list of skills in his attribute column that could be directly upgraded using talent buffs, Li Youzhi chose fusion without hesitation!

With a ding-dong in his mind like water dripping into a lake, Li Youzhi felt that something in his mind was being reorganized rapidly.

Feeling the wonderful changes in his mind, he silently looked at the dialect-proficient self-help skill package and curled his lips in disgust.

It's not that Brother Zhi looks down on this skill, but he thinks the PS of the dog system is very problematic.

China has a vast territory, abundant resources, a large population, and a complex dialect system.

Convert all the dialects here and go quarrel with the aunts all over the country - what the hell kind of situation is this?

The greatest use of this technology is, of course, to spread good cultural and entertainment works to every corner of the motherland, and to translate those cultural and entertainment works that cannot benefit due to language problems into dialects, so as to provide them to the elderly people in remote areas who cannot speak Mandarin well. ah!

After once again despising the system, Li Youzhi silently extracted 33 million points of stunning points and devoted himself to his own appearance attributes!

[Tip: Invest 33 million stunning points to improve the appearance attribute. After the improvement, the appearance attribute is 98... Are you sure to upgrade? 】

Looking at the prompt in front of him, Li Youzhi pressed the confirm option without hesitation.

Zhi Ge has been waiting for months, just for this day!

Beep!

Following another prompt from the system, Li Youzhi felt that the room was instantly filled with a milky white light. The next second, a huge warmth flowed into his body along every pore.

It felt like the whole person was stuffed into a smooth and soft place, and a strong sleepiness came over him. Watching his user appearance attributes change from the status of upgrade completed to the status of upgrade, Li Youzhi took the With a satisfied smile, he thrust into the bed.

The next moment, a gentle snoring sounded.

Just as Li Youzhi was struck by a strong sense of security and satisfaction, he fainted.

Qingdao has been prosperous for centuries.

Seeing Sun Boyang, who had gone to investigate the enemy's situation, walk into the office, the members of the "Transformation 7" publicity team all fell silent.

Not for anything else, just because Sun Boyang's state... something is wrong!

What's wrong? Sun Boyang, who always scolded Fang Qiu during the project development process and remained calm and composed, was like his second brother who had just finished vomiting foam, and his whole body was drooping!

"Mr. Sun, how are you doing on the scene? The theater box office data has just been updated. The pre-sale tickets for "The Wandering Earth" are rising rapidly. They have exceeded 57 million. It seems that they will exceed 8,000 today. The number is determined... maybe, we have to go for eight figures..."

Seeing that no one was saying anything, Wang Xinmiao, the leader of the social media group, bit the bullet and asked for instructions.

"ah……"

Raising his head and looking at Wang Xinmiao, Sun Boyang's lips twitched.

After seeing the scene in the theater, the data of "The Wandering Earth" is not surprising to Sun Boyang.

It's no surprise because after so many years in the industry, Sun Boyang has never seen a movie with such strong emotions at the premiere of "The Wandering Earth"!

Speaking of surprises...it's the speed at which word-of-mouth and box office fermentation is so fast!

When I went to the theater to watch it live just now, the box office of The Wandering Earth was less than 40 million!

In the office, Sun Boyang couldn't help but smile bitterly when he saw the eyes of a group of colleagues and subordinates looking at him.

Judging from the current trend, the reputation of "The Wandering Earth" cannot be limited. According to the current box office growth rate, the film schedule of "Transformation 7" will definitely not be maintained.

This time to win the domestic distribution of "Transformation 7", Changsheng Century paid a 120 million agency fee to the Hollywood production company and invested 250 million in publicity and distribution expenses.

Based on a 20% share of the box office, excluding all taxes and fees, the domestic box office of this film would have to be at least 2.2 billion to recoup its costs.

Now it seems... losing money is a certainty.

After thinking about the current situation comprehensively, Sun Boyang waved his hand.

"According to the previously planned word-of-mouth sniping strategy, let the most popular platforms target negative reviews on Douban, Weibo, Doushou, and Tieba. Limit as much as you can... limit as much as you can."

However, in the face of his instructions, the group of people in the office did not move at all.

Seeing the weird expressions on everyone's faces, as if he had witnessed his wife stealing someone, Sun Boyang couldn't help but get furious!

"What are you doing standing still? Didn't I tell you what to do? Go and execute it!"

Faced with his sudden roar, everyone present shrank their necks.

"Mr. Sun... I can't execute it... Take a look..."

After a while, Sun Boyang's assistant finally timidly took out his mobile phone, clicked on a video and handed it over.

When he picked up the video and took a quick look at it, Sun Boyang was stunned.

What is being played in the video is Li Youzhirong's speech at the premiere ceremony of the store.

"Actually, "The Wandering Earth" is not as good as everyone said. It has many fatal problems... For example, the service attitude in the theater is not good, the seats are too hard, the popcorn is too sweet... There are too many Chinese elements in the film... The basic logic is incorrect...it is not the heroes who save the world in the end...there are no American characters appearing..."

"Mr. Sun, it's not that we don't want to be black... but that everything that can be black has already been said by this guy at the premiere ceremony!"

();

Holding the phone and looking at Li Youzhi who had completely predicted his own prediction, Sun Boyang's mentality... collapsed!

From the moment he came across the project "The Wandering Earth", he felt that he was always a step behind.

No matter which way he takes, he seems to be blocked by the other party in advance.

This feeling is like a Mathematical Olympiad champion who was invincible in elementary school and was suddenly thrown into the Chinese Academy of Sciences.

"Mr. Sun...what should we do about this situation now?"

"Mr. Sun, Director Wang of the group just called to inquire about the status of the project. How should we respond?"

"Mr. Sun..." "Mr. Sun...?"

At this moment, Sun Boyang suddenly felt that everything around him was chaotic.

His eardrums seemed to have been filled with lead water, and all sounds became blurred.

Looking at Li Youzhi talking eloquently on the phone screen, he pursed his lips, and his expression changed from aggrieved to angry, and finally... turned into despair!

"This kid is too difficult to kill...it's too difficult!"

"I can't do... I can't do this question!"

In the office, amidst rapid questioning, Sun Boyang suddenly grabbed his head with both hands... and knelt on the ground with a pop.

Just when Sun Boyang's mentality collapsed, the screen of his cell phone that he dropped on the ground suddenly flashed.

CCTV-6: Although we have not won the championship, we are confident enough; we have shortcomings, but we have tried our best; we have made progress, which is worthy of recognition; we have faith, and we are full of hope - if this trend becomes strong, the film market's tendency to be foreign will stop. That’s it! Today, our Taiwan Best Film Appointment section will show the classic action movie "Once Upon a Time in China". The movie is not important, I hope domestic film and television creators will listen to the theme song more! If you don’t understand what this Weibo means, I suggest you go to the cinema and watch “The Wandering Earth”!

Observation on Chinese Movies: A common man has great ambitions, but a great man cannot be harmed; his actions are persevering, and his fragrance lasts for a long time; the spring rain moistens the wood, and the pines and bamboos walk on the frost; only the essence is unique, and the transformation is flying! A small step for the cultural confidence of film and television creators, a giant step for the Chinese film industry! # The premiere ceremony of "The Wandering Earth" by Li Youzhi # The first solid step for Chinese science fiction movies.

Beside Sun Boyang, looking at the two Weibo posts that popped up on the screen of his mobile phone, several employees of the Changsheng project team grinned.

What kind of monster are we facing this time!

When Li Youzhi woke up from a coma, he saw a ton of messages from Liu Yun.

Wiping the irritation from his mouth, looking at the box office that exceeded 100 million at nine o'clock last night, and then seeing the movie channels shared by netizens and the screenshots of more than a dozen official Weibo accounts supporting "The Wandering Earth", Li Youzhi rubbed his hands I rubbed my numb neck and felt happy.

So...how important is it for a filmmaker to produce good content?

Just like a girl who has been beautiful since she was a child, studies well, is filial to her parents, and has been admitted as a teacher... When she reaches the marriageable age, she is directly promoted by the neighborhood aunt, and she explodes in the city's dating circles!

Li Youzhi took a deep breath when he saw that "The Wandering Earth", which was already well-received after its premiere early in the morning, had already grossed 150 million at the box office.

Who else? !

Early in the morning, an arrogant roar came from the dormitory.

It turns out... there is no one left.

With the support of movie channels and many official media, as well as more and more word-of-mouth reviews about the movie, even though there are some criticisms about the details of the movie on the Internet, the box office of "The Wandering Earth"... cannot be stopped!

After completing 100 million on the first day, the daily box office growth of The Wandering Earth exceeded 100 million in the next seven days.

The box office growth, which has been booming for a week, has only slightly declined due to the intense heat in mid-August.

But it is still growing at a rate of 50 to 70 million per day!

Just like that, on August 22nd, twenty days after The Wandering Earth was launched, the box office performance finally reached an important point.

Early in the morning, around nine o'clock.

Sitting in the office, Tu Zheng smacked his lips when he looked at the bright red words "2 billion" on the box office screenshot Liu Yun sent him.

Looking at the screen of the mobile phone again, "It is expected to break the domestic film record, "The Wandering Earth" will create a miracle!" "With an investment of 140 million, investment accounted for 35%, Qiang Sheng Film and Television may become the biggest winner of "The Wandering Earth" ""Dear" and "The Wandering Earth" have exploded in popularity one after another, Qiangsheng Film and Television's stock is booming!" Tu Zheng's expression was a bit complicated.

Silently, he opened Li Youzhi's shaking hands.

Looking at that handsome face that looked like he deserved a beating, Tu Zheng felt a little complicated for a moment.

It's not that I don't want to kill this kid, it's just that this kid... is a little bit exciting to me!
