China Film Group was still in the same reception room, and Lin Shu was still facing Han Sanping and Weng Li.

But compared with the previous few days, the two people's attitude towards Lin Shu was obviously more kind during this meeting.

This is not difficult to understand. Previously, Lin Shu was just a new director. No one knew whether the movie would be a success, so there was no need to be overly enthusiastic towards him.

But in just a few days, Lin Shu single-handedly made himself and his movie popular all over the Internet. With this marketing skill, even if Lin Shu doesn't join the entertainment industry in the future, a lot of people will ask him to do it.

Marketing Director.

Getting back to the subject, the reason why Han Sanping came to Lin Shu this time was very simple: to discuss the release date of A Study in Scarlet.

"...According to Director Lin's suggestion last time, I studied the January schedule in detail. Among them, we scheduled Red Cliff Part 2 to be released on the 8th, and Crazy Racing on the 20th. In addition to these two films released by our company

, there are also imported foreign films and Hong Kong and Taiwan films to be released in January."

Lin Shu looked at the report in his hand and listened to Weng Li's analysis of the movie release situation in January. Although he didn't say it explicitly, his tone was still telling Lin Shu to try not to choose a January schedule.

"Xiao Shu, you heard what Manager Weng said, please tell me what you think."

Han Sanping is also an old stinking monkey. The last time he came, it was Director Lin. This time, he just called Xiao Shu. As expected, if you want others to respect you, you have to be tough enough.

"Third Master, Manager Weng, I looked at the movie release status on this report. It's like this. The 26th is the first month of the lunar month and it's also a Monday. I'm wondering if A Study in Scarlet can be released on the 23rd, which happens to use three days of the weekend.

Let word of mouth ferment."

Weng Li looked troubled and was about to speak again, but Han Sanping stopped him with his eyes before he opened his mouth.

"Xiao Shu, I think you are right about the audience problem of the movie you mentioned last time. The audiences of Study in Scarlet and Crazy Racing do not overlap. But the day you chose, the 23rd, is not a good day..."

"I looked at the situation today and it seems that there are no new movies released?"

The current Spring Festival schedule is not the kind of battle between gods and queuing up to be released in the future. The three major domestic directors also pay more attention to the summer schedule, so Lin Shu wants to get a good position for his movie.

"It is true that there are no new movies released on the 23rd, but the day before there was a movie called Huang Baiming's A Happy Event at Home, and there was also a movie starring Andy Lau on the 26th. So this date is the day of death, and no one in China dares to schedule their own movies.

Released on this day."

Is there a happy event at home? Playing with dragons and phoenixes? I’ve never heard of it!

Lin Shu secretly thought to himself. If he was a little afraid of Red Cliff, he didn't care about these two movies at all. They are not on the same level as Sherlock.

Although Lin Shu is very confident in his films, he also understands that the domestic film industry has not yet developed, and except for a few Hong Kong and Taiwan directors, no one else has the confidence to compete with them.

So if Lin Shu wanted to convince Han Sanping, he had to point out the benefits of being released on the 23rd and speak with facts.

"Third Master, I still think the 23rd is the most appropriate date. The momentum on the Internet has just begun, and it is expected to reach its peak next month. If we miss this opportunity and release it again, the day lily will be cold."

"Fengkou? Where did you learn these strange words?"

Han Sanping laughed and scolded, and then said seriously: "What you said is true, but are you really confident that you can resist this attack from both front and rear? Crazy racing has a fan base, which you can't compare with."

Lin Shu sat upright and looked at Han Sanping. He must not be soft at this time.

"Third Master, to tell you the truth, if my movie has a fan base, then I will directly compete with Chibi. How can I play with these two movies? With the advent of the Internet, Research in Scarlet will be released during the Spring Festival.

I have the advantage, how can I lose?!"

Han Sanping stared at Lin Shu and asked seriously.

"So confident?"

Faced with this question, Lin Shu's face showed the signature smile of the Thunder Monkey King.

"There is a saying that goes well, pigs sitting on the wind vent can fly into the sky. Mr. San, you have seen my movie, it is not a pig, but it has a big wind vent now, it can't go straight to space!"<

/p>

"Hahaha! It's a trap, and it's a pig. Xiaoshu, I think you shouldn't be making movies at all, you should start a business. After all this rhetoric, those investors still have to obediently pay for it!

”

Han Sanping praised, how did he know that his words would be verified by the Thunder Monkey King in a few years?

"Third Master, so you agree with my suggestion?"

Lin Shu asked in a restrained voice. No matter how good he just said, it was Han Sanping who made the final decision.

Looking at Lin Shu who was slightly nervous, Han Sanping nodded and said: "If your movie is Pig, then there won't be many movies that can be watched in China."

"This movie will be released on the 23rd as you said!"

"Pah!" Lin Shu clapped his hands and said excitedly: "That's right! Third Master, please keep an eye on me. I'm going to make over 100 million yuan with this film!"

In his previous life, Lin Shu participated in many movies, some of which were worth over 1 billion, but he was just an unnamed minor supporting role in them.

For people who don't have a deep relationship with each other, when you introduce yourself, it will only make people think that you are trying to force yourself, and they won't look at you, so there is nothing to be excited about.

Although A Study in Scarlet is based on the British TV series Sherlock, Lin Shu was responsible for everything from preparation to filming to post-production.

If he didn't really understand, Lin Shu would probably want to handle photography and lighting himself.

With this close relationship and Lin Shu himself starring, it can be said that after the movie is released, the word Lin Shu will be equated with A Study in Scarlet. Sherlock will also become his classic role on the big screen, which makes

How could Lin Shu not be excited?

"Breaking 100 million?!"

Han Sanping stared at Lin Shu with wide eyes and said in disbelief: "Did you know that last year, not counting European and American blockbusters, there were only 7 domestic box office films that exceeded 100 million yuan!"

Facing Han Sanping's surprise, Lin Shu seemed calm, "I didn't know at first, but now I know."

"You know? Are you still confident that you can break 100 million?"

"Yes!" Lin Shu said with certainty, and then seriously conducted a market analysis for Han Sanping.

"Third Master, I wonder if you have noticed that the ratings of the Spring Festival Gala have been declining year after year. Now that the lives of Chinese people have gotten better, the threshold for mental excitement is relatively higher. There has not been a big improvement in the program level of the Spring Festival Gala. The audience is not satisfied with it.

The enthusiasm for the Spring Festival Gala naturally dropped."

"In this case, movies have become an alternative. I am confident that the Spring Festival period will soon develop into a box office battlefield that will not lose to the summer period!"

Han Sanping stared at him seriously for a few seconds, finally shook his head and said.
Chapter completed!
