Chapter 524: All Jokes Are Serious

Twenty-eight billion, a very scary number.

Movies of this level are rare and rare.

Everyone was looking at Luo Mo, including Zhong Lin and the other two members of the audit department.

After Luo Mo closed the notebook, he originally thought about whether to be more "conservative" or to follow their words and give a number realistically.

Just when he fell into a brief tangle, Fang Jie's way of speaking was not much different from that in "The Director's Show".

"Director Luo, do you want to calculate how much box office is left for you to use?" Fang Jie said with a smile, her tone was teasing, as if she was joking.

Many people laughed along with him, which was enough to liven up the atmosphere.

Luo Mo looked at her, and in a tone similar to hers, he pretended to be joking: "How about 2.8 billion? Haha!"

After laughing, he made a serious face.

I'm seriousjpg.

I am the only one left, and there are 2.8 billion left, so what can I do?

I can only feel aggrieved, and everything is taken care of.

But because this number is so outrageous, others cannot take it seriously.

Even if it's nonsense, it has to be done in a certain way. A new director who has never made a live-action movie comes up and claims 2.8 billion?

Why don't you just break the historical box office record of domestic movies?

Therefore, everyone felt that Luo Mo was just joking.

It’s normal to have oral pleasure, who wouldn’t?

Wang Rong glanced at Luo Mo, took a sip of the coffee he bought, and said, "Hey, it's time to fulfill my duties as [Producer]."

"We also talked about this issue on the way here. Regarding the new movie "I'm Not the God of Medicine" that Director Luo and I collaborated on, it's only... 100 million!" Wang Rong said.

Luo Mo glanced at Wang Rong.

On the way here, the two of them didn't talk at all.

Wang Rong kindly rescued the siege, and Luo Mo was definitely not a monster. When he saw Zhong Lin looking at him, he nodded to her.

Zhong Lin smiled and said: "The numbers are quite good, just add up to 8 billion."

"Okay, 8 billion is the bottom line of this plan. I hope there will be a good result in the end and surprise everyone." Zhong Lin agreed.

Next, the meeting lasted for about ten minutes and then came to an end.

In fact, the number eight billion is also a heavy burden.

Most of the directors present are experienced people who have experienced ups and downs.

There have been times of glory and times of loneliness.

We all know that when it comes to movie box office, you can only do your best to do your job well, and then let the market give you the final result.

These days, more and more large-scale productions are losing money. The figures reported by everyone are at least breakeven, which is actually unrealistic.

If any individual movie loses money, then the total target of 8 billion will be further away.

Tian Ou looked at Luo Mo and muttered in his heart: "Look at what you are capable of. If you can really make 2.8 billion by yourself, then thank you very much!"

After the meeting, Zhong Lin took a deep look at Luo Mo and took the lead.

The eleven directors also got up one after another and went downstairs while chatting.

"Fang Jie, is your movie the first to be released among us?" Feng Ji was the first to talk about this matter.

Fang Jie nodded, and then said: "It's not just me, Director Hua's new film has just been scheduled for next week, just like me."

Director Hua's full name is Hua Longgang, and he is from the Mediterranean, so he wears a hat all year round.

In addition to hats, he also likes to wear sunglasses, even indoors and at night.

Today was a meeting in the audit department, so he took off his sunglasses in the conference room, revealing a pair of triangular eyes.

Now, just as he was about to take out his sunglasses and put them on, he heard Fang Jie mentioning herself.

Next week is also considered a holiday, but it only has one legal holiday.

The schedule is okay, but I can’t say it’s particularly good.

The figures reported by him and Fang Jie were 600 million and 800 million respectively.

What Fang Jie is about to release is a youth film. In the past few years, youth films have been quite popular in the market. Many low-budget youth films, without the help of big names, have a bunch of unknown young actors.

It can achieve good box office results.

Director Fang Jie has always believed that she is a woman with delicate emotions. She feels that although it is her first time to try a youth film, the box office should not be bad.

What's more, she spent a lot of money to buy the copyright of a well-known romance novel.

On many platforms, the male protagonist in this novel has always been among the top three in the "Most Favorite Romance Novel Male Protagonists" poll.

Therefore, although the number she said was 800 million, her inner expectation was to exceed 1 billion.

In addition, the male protagonist of this movie is also a male artist under her banner and is known as her company's "son". She also wants to make him famous through this movie.

Movie themes such as youth movies are actually similar to idol dramas.

Box office is not everyone’s only pursuit.

Praising people is also very important.

Some movies, even if they become popular, are not very strong in attracting fans. People are not likely to fall madly in love with a certain star because of this movie. Youth movies are different. The ability to attract fans in youth movies is relatively strong among all kinds of movies.

of.

The more fans you have, the more ways you can make money.

As for Hua Longgang's movie, it is an action movie.

In the past few days, the box office of action movies has also shown a slight decline.

The most important thing is that action actors are in short supply, and there are still a lot of older people to take the lead in filming.

There are only some tepid "old people" who suddenly made a comeback by relying on a certain action movie, and there are not many new action actors who have made good works.

Hua Longgang also had great ambitions for this movie, wanting to sweep away the decline in action movies.

But what the outcome will be remains to be seen after the film is released.

"Then I wish you two a good start." Li Dongliang said to Fang Jie and Hualong with a smile.

Many people also echoed a few words, all of which were business compliments.

Luo Mo is the most isolated person in the entire small group.

He can also keenly feel that everyone has their own thoughts.

Many practical reasons force many directors to be duplicitous, hoping that their films will be popular and others' box office hits will be low.

For example, this time the review department hired five directors from the older generation, including Luo Mo, a total of six new generation directors.

By then, the media will still have those marketing accounts that only seek traffic, won’t they use this to make comparisons?

The fight between the old and the new, praising one and suppressing the other are their common tactics.

Therefore, Luo Mo felt that it was meaningless. Seemingly simple things like helping each other sometimes required structure.

For him, he just wants support from the audit department and other parties, and he just wants resources.

As for the rest, just do your part of the job well.

After everyone arrived at the underground parking lot, they waved goodbye.

Luo Mo and Wang Rong came in the same car and had to go back to the hotel together. Tomorrow they would fly back to the studio together.

As soon as he got in the car, Wang Rong stared at Luo Mo seriously.

"What's wrong?" Luo Mo touched his thin face and asked.

"Were you serious just now?" Wang Rong said.

"what?"

"You must have been serious just now, right?" Wang Rong said again.

He looked at Luo Mo and said: "Box office, I mean the 2.8 billion box office."

Luo Mo looked at him and said lightly: "Guess."

Wang Rong looked at him and said: "Did you know that in the situation just now, even if you were joking, if someone wants to mess with you,

Facing the media, he will tell you what you said."

"Tsk, tsk, humans are so bad." Luo Mo took a sip of coffee.

Wang Rong looked at his appearance and became more serious: "This guy is serious!"

.

·…



In the afternoon, Xu Chujing came to the hotel.

She will fly to the set tomorrow with Luo Mo and Wang Rong, which will be her first visit to the set.

At the same time, we will also see if there is any role for her to make a cameo, which can be considered as a contribution to Luo Mo's first live-action film.

And at night, the finale of "The Beginning" was updated on time.

In addition, since Fang Jie and Hua Longgang's movie will be released next weekend, the review department and other parties are also very efficient, so they started to take action and announced their participation in the "Ten Billion Box Office Plan" tonight

List of directors.
