Zhang Xiaodao: "It's a good thing that "Battle of Red Cliff" has become popular overseas. It can greatly enhance the confidence of domestic directors to hit the global market."

For Zhang Xiao, the ideal situation for "Battle of Red Cliff" is for it to be a hit at the domestic box office and a big hit at the foreign box office. Looking at the current situation, the trend of this movie is really the direction Zhang Xiao hopes for.

Yang Mi glanced at him and said, "Don't you regret it at all? This is the work of Huayi and Chen Gang!"

Zhang Xiao said lightly: "I have not taken Chen Gang seriously for a long time. Don't you know? As for Huayi, even if they can make ten "Battle of Red Cliffs", so what, it will not be of any use to us.

Any threats."

"Honey, what we want to conquer now is the sea of ​​stars. A small Huayi is nothing!"

Yang Mi said: "Okay, you, Director Zhang, have a broad mind. I, a little girl, don't have as big a mind as you."

Zhang Xiao chuckled and said: "Who said that, you have a bigger mind than me."

Yang Mi was stunned for a moment, but she quickly reacted and said angrily: "Fuck you, you are so dishonest."

···

Jiangnan TV station.

Chen Gang, Fa Ge, Liang Chaowei, Jin Chengwu, Zhang Zheng, Liu Yi, Yang Ying and others who had just finished recording an interview show dragged their exhausted bodies back to nine o'clock.

These people are the real protagonists of "Battle of Red Cliff" and the main force in promoting this movie.

For more than a week, "Battle of Red Cliff" has been promoted by them, so everyone is very tired.

Walking into the treasure chest, Chen Gang ordered a table full of food.

Just as we were about to start eating, Wang Jun's call came in.

"Dagang, what are you busy with?"

"We're having dinner, Mr. Wang, has the overseas box office been released?" Chen Gang's voice was filled with a hint of nervousness and worry.

The current domestic first-day box office is only 280 million, which is still far behind Chen Gang's original expectations. If the overseas box office is no better, then the movie will really be finished.

Wang Jun laughed loudly and said: "Yes, it came out. With 95 million US dollars, "Battle of Red Cliff" has a global box office of 139 million US dollars. It ranked second in yesterday's box office rankings, only 2,000 US dollars away from the championship.

A difference of ten thousand dollars.”

"Really?" Chen Gang was very surprised, but asked in disbelief.

"Of course it's true." Wang Jundao: "You can check online. "Battle of Red Cliff" has a freshness rating of 88% on Rotten Tomatoes abroad. What does this mean? I believe you know better than me.

.”

Chen Gang slapped his thigh suddenly and said excitedly: "Great, great."

Wang Jundao: "Dagang, don't get too happy too soon. Whether "Battle of Red Cliff" will be successful in the future depends on the film schedule of the theaters."

Chen Gang was stunned and said: "Zhang Xiao?"

"No!" Wang Jun said: "Zhang Xiao doesn't care about these things. The one who really leads the overseas filming of "Battle of Red Cliff" is Yang Mi. I know that Yang Ying, Liu Fei and Yang Mi have a good relationship. You let them two

Yang Mi, give me a call and have a look."

"If she has any intention of lowering our film schedule, I will go to the Department of Culture immediately."

Chen Gang nodded and said: "Okay, I understand!"

After hanging up the phone, Chen Gang said with a smile: "Everyone, good news. Our overseas box office revenue reached 95 million US dollars. The global box office on the first day reached 139 million US dollars, ranking second on the day."

"Okay!" Everyone was very happy when they heard it.

Yang Ying said: "Director Chen, the box office is so good, why should we celebrate?"

Chen Gang nodded and said: "You should indeed celebrate it, but I still have something to trouble you and Liu Fei."

Liu Fei and Yang Ying looked at each other and asked in unison: "What's going on?"

Chen Gang said: "The overseas filming rights of "Battle of Red Cliff" are in the hands of Yang Mi. Can you give her a call?"

Fa Ge narrowed his eyes slightly when he heard this and said: "Director Chen, are you worried that Zhang Xiao will reduce our overseas film schedule?"

Chen Gang nodded and said: "You all know about my relationship with him. "Battle of Red Cliff" has become a hit overseas. I will gain great fame from it. This is definitely something Zhang Xiao doesn't want to see. If

As a result, he has lowered the movie schedule in theaters, and our movie’s box office will be ruined.”

As Zhang Xiao's best friend, Fa Ge was very dissatisfied with Chen Gang's suspicion and said: "Director Chen, I think you are a little unfounded. I know Zhang Xiao's temperament very well. He will definitely not be able to do this kind of thing.

of."

Chen Gang didn't expect Brother Fa to defend Zhang Xiao like this, and was slightly taken aback.

Liang Chaowei was worried that there would be a conflict between the two, so he quickly smiled and said: "It's just a phone call, it's not a big deal, just do me a favor and ask!"

Yang Ying took out her mobile phone and said, "Okay, then I'll call Mimi now."

Soon, the call came through.

Yang Mi's voice came from the other end of the phone: "Beautiful Yang, aren't you supposed to be promoting "Battle of Red Cliff"? How come you have time to call me?"

"My dear Mr. Yang, you are so powerful now, and this little girl is here to ask for help." Yang Ying said.

"What's wrong? Brother Xiao Ming hit you?"

"He dares?"

"Then why do you need help from me?"

"It's about the overseas filming schedule of "Battle of Red Cliff"."

When Yang Mi heard this, she was silent for a while and then said: "It turns out that Director Chen has asked you to be a lobbyist!"

Yang Ying said: "Apart from me, there is Feifei, she is right next to me."

Yang Mi said: "Tell Chen Gang, we are neither Huayi nor him, and we cannot do such despicable things. It is very rare for "Battle of Red Cliff" to have a box office of nearly 100 million US dollars without publicity.

It has a great role in promoting domestic films to go abroad."

"As long as the box office and attendance of "Battle of Red Cliff" can be maintained, I will not only not reduce its film schedule, but also increase it."

"My husband means to be impartial. How many films "Battle of Red Cliff" can get depends on how capable it is."

Hearing Yang Mi's words, Chen Gang breathed a long sigh of relief.

Fa Ge glanced at him directly and cursed secretly: 'It's really a villain's heart to judge a gentleman's heart!'

Yang Ying said: "Mimi, thank you and Brother Xiao. After my promotion here is over, I will definitely go to Yuzhou to treat you to dinner."

"You can pull it off!" Yang Mi said with a smile: "You came to Yuzhou, I have the nerve to let you treat me to dinner?"

Next, the two chatted for a few more words and then hung up the phone.

Chen Gang said: "Yang Ying, thank you."

"Nothing!" Yang Ying shook her head and said, "Even if I don't make this call, Mimi will not reduce our film scheduling rate."

Chen Gang smiled brightly and said nothing more.

After drinking and eating, everyone went back to their rooms to rest.

Liang Chaowei came to Fa Ge's room and said, "Fa Ge, I feel like you are a little dissatisfied with Director Chen. Is it because of Zhang Xiao?"

Fa Ge said: "No, I just can't stand Chen Gang's villainous expression. If I hadn't been the protagonist of "Battle of Red Cliff", I would have left with Teacher Chen and Teacher Li long ago."
