In a five-star hotel.

Pan Shuai's assistant held his mobile phone and read: "Director Pan, the box office of "The Great Times" has reached 6000 million today. If this trend continues, it will probably break [-] million by the tenth of this month."

Pan Shuai was lying on the sofa, and a female technician was sitting on him to help him in the spa.

"How about the reviews online?"

"Uh... Well, the current score of "Big Times" is 81 points, ranking second among all summer movies."

Pan Shuai frowned and said, "Second?"

"Yes."

"Who is the first?"

The assistant replied cautiously: "It's "Youth in Youth", with a score of 92."

"What!!!" Pan Shuai raised his head suddenly, looked at the assistant in disbelief, and said loudly, "You as a teenager? Is it the movie invested by Chenghai Entertainment?"

"Yes, it is."

Pan Shuai sat down directly, and said with a cold face: "How is this possible! How much is their box office?"

The assistant refreshed the interface, and when he saw the real-time box office data on the phone, "Youth in Youth" had surpassed "The Great Times", the assistant was also confused. He knew that if he told Pan Shuai this, Pan Shuai would be very angry, but He had no choice but to pretend to be unbelievable and said: "The box office of "Youth in Youth" has reached 670 million, surpassing our "Big Times"."

"Snapped!"

Pan Shuai grabbed the wet towel and threw it heavily on the ground.

"How is this possible! How could I lose to them! I used the famous writer Guo Jingwen for the script, and all the actors I used were first-line stars. How could it be possible to be overtaken? I know, I know, Guo Hai must He used his father's Wanjiang Cinemas to falsify the box office data."

The assistant suddenly realized.

That's right, there are indeed box office cheats in the film industry.

And many great directors have used it.

There are generally three methods used. The first is fake audiences, which is to buy up all the movie theater seats at midnight to increase the box office. This kind of situation is also called ghost theater in the industry.

The second is to lock the market. If no one is watching the movie and a seat cannot be sold, you can buy a seat with your own money to increase the number of movies and prevent the movie from going offline in advance.

The third is called moving bricks, which is too much, that is, you bought "a", but the movie ticket turned out to be "b", and the theater said that you can watch "a" with the ticket of "b". The so-called stealing box office is also the worst kind.

Guo Hai owns a theater in his home, so Pan Shuai would naturally suspect that the data of "Youth in Youth" was falsified.

Ever since, in the next day's road show interview.

The reporter asked: "Director Pan, how do you think "Youth in Youth" has surpassed "Big Times" at the box office."

Pan Shuai smiled immediately: "As far as I know, "Youth in Youth" was filmed by Chenghai Entertainment. You may not know that Guo Hai, the boss of Chenghai Entertainment, is the son of the chairman of Wanjiang Group. With this level of relationship, box office falsification is also normal, right?"

Pan Shuai's tone was very calm, but the reporters were blown away.

"Director Pan, are you saying that the box office of "Youth in Youth" was faked?"

"Director Pan, do you have evidence?"

"Director Pan, why do you say that?"

Pan Shuai laughed and said, "As a young director, I really can't provide any evidence, but I don't think the film made by a new screenwriter and director will surpass the "Big Times" that I have carefully polished for several months."

The reporters didn't want to hear Pan Shuai pretending to be b. They just wanted to write these words as entertainment news and post them on the Internet.

Pan Shuai's purpose is also this.

Therefore, the news of the fake box office of "Youth in Youth" was quickly spread to various platforms.

When Guo Hai and Fang Cheng heard the news at the same time, they laughed so hard that their stomachs ached.

……

next night.

Fang Cheng also participated in the second road show of "Youth in Youth" in Shanghai.

The reporter quickly asked this question.

"Director Wang Jing, what do you think about the box office fraud of "Youth in Youth"?"

Wang Jing was not used to this feeling of being surrounded by stars, and it was also the first time for him to stand in front of so many cameras, and he didn't know how to respond for a while.

Fang Cheng took the microphone and said with a smile: "I think it's kind of funny, haha."

Two meaningful hehes made the cameramen focus on Fangcheng.

"Some people obviously haven't seen our movies, but they can make up our box office fraud without evidence. To be honest, I believe that most of you here have watched these two movies. "Youth in Youth" " and "The Great Times" who is good and who is bad, everyone knows very well that we are young and inexperienced, but this does not mean that the movies we make are not good. On the contrary, I think seniority does not prove anything. Someone who has been a director for seven or eight years, isn't it still impossible to produce a masterpiece?"

Click click.

The shutter was pressed frantically.

"Mr. Fang, are you talking about Director Pan?"

"That's what you said, I didn't say it."

"Ha ha ha ha."

There was a burst of laughter at the scene, and everyone knew it.

Interviewing Fang Cheng is much more interesting than interviewing Pan Shuai.

"Mr. Fang, I remember you were just a songwriter before, why did you think of writing a script as a screenwriter?"

Fang Cheng smiled slightly and said: "It's like being ordered in a crisis. Our company couldn't find a screenwriter to cooperate with, and I have always been interested in writing, so I wrote it myself. In fact, the script of "Youth in Youth" is not mine. My first work is "Knives in the Snow", and the results are not bad, if you like it, you can check it out on Penguin."

There was another sound of the shutter being pressed.

Fangcheng brought surprises one after another tonight.

"Mr. Fang, can we see your other film works?"

"Of course, if the performance of "Youth in Youth" is good, our company will naturally prepare a new film project. You can wait and see."

The interview is coming to an end.

Fang Cheng said again: "I hope that all journalists will stop posting news about box office fraud, because it has already affected the reputation of our company. If this matter continues to spread, we will pursue the legal responsibility of the relevant personnel.

As one of the shareholders of Chenghai Entertainment, I can guarantee with my reputation that the box office of "Youth in Youth" is absolutely not faked. First, we have confidence in our own works. Second, we don't think there is any movie in the summer file. Can compete with us.
