You made me a superstar

Chapter 406 Sniped!

On the evening of August 21st.

The Chinese film industry has been shaken!
The earthquake involved Huaxia Wangda, Yongxin, Meikairui, Boda and other cinema groups...

["Infernal Affairs" suffered unfair treatment! 】

[Photos, videos, recordings exposed! "Nightwalker" is suspected of stealing the box office, operating in the dark, and suppressing "Infernal Affairs"]

[The daily box office was stolen close to 500 million!How miserable and dark is "Infernal Affairs" going through these days? 】

【…】

"Focus News", "CCTV Online", "Yanjing Media", "China Entertainment"...

Countless mainstream media reporters rushed to major theaters at the same time, and almost turned their microphones on the staff of the theaters.

"It's none of our business! These are temporary workers, and our senior management doesn't know anything about it..."

"We really don't know about this, we are actually fans of "Infernal Affairs". I recommended "Infernal Affairs" on Weibo a few days ago!"

"It's temporary workers, and now we have fired these temporary workers..."

"Don't shoot, don't shoot, you ask me a hundred times, a thousand times, ten thousand times, my answer is the same, I really don't know..."

"..."

under the lens.

Zhang Qian, manager of the marketing department of Wanda Cinemas, had a bitter expression on his face. Facing the sudden arrival of numerous reporters, he was shocked and angry. No matter what the reporters asked, he denied it.

Not only did he deny it, but he even released an entry form for new employees, saying that during the period when "Infernal Affairs" was released, he had been on business trips and had no idea what happened.

When the relevant investigation department intervened, the marketing manager of Wanda Cinemas still looked like this, sure that he didn't know anything.

When the relevant departments wanted to investigate the deputy managers, they found that those deputy managers had formally submitted their resignation letters as early as yesterday and had disappeared.

Wanda Cinemas is like this...

"I do not know!"

"We arrange the films normally according to the regulations, and we will also refund those who have refunded tickets!"

"We don't have handwritten tickets, how can we do these unprofessional things..."

"Although we have an online ticketing system, many of our tickets are sold on the spot, and we don't need an ID card to sell tickets. We buy them if they want to buy them, and we refund them if they want to refund..."

"We don't know either!"

"How could we do things like steal the box office? If we have the brains, why are we still here to sell tickets? Why don't we just do business..."

The staff of Yongxin Cinemas looked blank.

It seemed that they didn't know what was going on at all, and they didn't think it was stealing the box office or what it was.

The relevant departments investigated for a long time, but did not find any problems.

Finally, when investigating the group of movie fans who "sell and buy tickets", I finally found out some tricks!
They were all bought!

Following the clues, he quickly found the main messenger of this incident.

The main messenger is Zhao Sicheng, a former member of the Huaxia Directors Association!

"Yes, I did it. Is there a problem? I like to do it. What can you do with me? Extradite me to Huaxia? Do you have the ability?"

"And, did I commit a crime? Did I not commit a crime at all? Did I violate the national interest?"

On the phone, Zhao Sicheng's attitude was very arrogant.

He is arrogant and has his own arrogant capital!
The person is abroad, and he is already an American with a green card in the United States...

Everyone has nothing to do with him.

..............................

"Damn politicians!"

James Lee looked at the box office of "The Departed" and cursed angrily.

Just a few days.

Christian has traveled to more than 20 cities following Olsen with the poster of "The Departed".

These more than 20 cities are all areas where Olson's radiation range is relatively small...

Politicians need a glamorous image, while Christian needs popularity and box office.

The two of them resembled the story described by the Chinese idiom "Wolf in gangs", which made James Lee and the team of "Superman 2" queasy!

[Under Mr. Olson's initiative: 5.00% of the box office revenue of "The Departed" will be used for the welfare of children in orphanages, and [-]% of the box office revenue will be updated with the equipment of front-line police officers... 】

[The real superhero has always been by our side! 】

[California Police Officer Luis: This is the best movie I have ever seen, I have been crying, so moved! 】

[The box office of "The Departed Walker" was robbed, and the police officers spontaneously came to maintain order after get off work! 】

On the Internet, every hot news seems to be telling the social popularity of the movie "The Departed".

Christian's move is too ruthless!

Directly turning the movie "The Departed" into a social topic, there is such a hint of moral kidnapping between the lines.

Yes!

Especially when James Lee saw fans of "Superman 2" on the Internet calling for "Superman 2" to learn from "The Departed" and donate 15.00% of the box office to charity, he almost Pass out out of breath!
Too bad!
How much is the investment in "The Departed Walker"?
If I remember correctly, the cost of this movie is only 800 million US dollars!

How much did they invest in "Superman 2"?
Nearly $5000 million!

The two people are not in the same order of magnitude at all, and they can't even be compared on the same level!

The 15.00% of "The Departed Walker" doesn't matter at all, people have already paid back their capital, every time it is released, they earn once, and don't care about the 15.00% charity benefits!

What about "Superman 2"?

Don't see that "Superman 2" is massacring and suppressing everything in China now, but if you really want to pay back, you have to earn at least [-] million US dollars at the box office!

The cost return is only the return on investment funds, and it does not include the cost of time, energy, manpower, and material resources!

To put it bluntly, the box office of "Superman 2" is at least [-] million at the global box office, and you can almost make a small profit!

At this critical moment, let him spend another 15.00% of the box office for charity?
Isn't this a sharp knife on his aorta, causing blood to flow?
Not to mention that the investors behind him are unwilling, even without those investors, the DV company behind him would not be willing. This is a complete idiot!
"Mr. James, what should we do? The box office of "The Departed" is close to 1000 million US dollars, and we still only have 500 million US dollars..."

The voice of the assistant came from the ear.

James Lee didn't respond, but watched more and more discussions about "The Departed Walker" on the Internet.

Even, according to the news, Christian followed Olsen and just announced his next itinerary on the Internet. The FBI official website of the city where the next itinerary will be held has already written the words "warm welcome", even in Florida. At that time, Lieutenant Governor Sergey even announced that he would personally come to greet Congressman Olsen and others...

After all, Sergey is also a black man!
"Are there many black actors in our "Superman 2"?" James Lee asked subconsciously as if thinking of something.

"Not many... And, there were almost no black actors in Superman 2... Wait, no, yes, Mr. James, do you remember how many black hippies were in Superman 2? They were villains, Kicked away by Superman..."

"Damn it! Hurry up and cut out the shots of these black gangsters, don't let the public opinion spread!" James Li's face changed drastically!
"understand……"

The assistant's face also changed drastically. He nodded for the first time, then turned and left the office.

The current contradiction between whites and blacks in Laomei is getting deeper and deeper. At present, the overall direction of Laomei has a vague trend of black lives. "Superman 1" is easy to say. Steve Doan, one of the directors, has black blood and pays great attention to details. , there is no problem of black playing the villain, and "Superman 2" is directly directed by James Lee himself...

In this context, it is extremely easy to be exploited and attacked by people with intentions.

After the assistant left, James Li silently looked at the comments on the Internet...

Ok!

Although there are various voices on the Internet, no one attacked "Superman 2" because of this problem...

James Lee shrugged.

Did he think too much?
Just when he was relieved and was about to continue thinking about the follow-up promotion of "Superman 2", there was another knock on the door outside the office.

"Come in!"

He saw the assistant who had just left running over in a hurry, with a flustered expression on his face.

"What's wrong? Ruijin?"

"China's new round of box office is out!"

"Don't worry, how much is the box office?"

"Our "Superman 2" only has a daily box office of 500 million RMB, which is more than 1000 million less than yesterday!"

"what!"

When James Lee heard these words, he was stunned.

For the first time, he thought Rui Jin was joking with him...

But after seeing Rui Jin's serious expression, he turned serious, and then opened the box office information that Rui Jin handed over.

The moment he read the box office data, he was stunned.

"Superman 2" grossed 500 million on the [-]th...

"Infernal Affairs" 3000 million...

"Night Walker" box office 700 million...

"what happened!"

The huge gap made him unable to help but scream.

Ruijin was also in shock, and after a while, he still didn't recover from the astonishing sense of gap.

In the end, he looked down at the latest news from Huaxia, and muttered to himself: "The box office of "Night Walker" was found to be flooded and falsified...by some means, it stole the daily box office of "Infernal Affairs" which was close to 500 million..."

After being greatly shocked, James Li tried his best to keep himself calm, then grabbed the notebook in Ruijin's hand, and looked at other news from Huaxia.

After reading a series of news, he felt incredible...

I thought "Superman 2" was a movie that could snipe "Infernal Affairs".

But no one thought that his "Superman 2" was sniped in China instead!
