The author has something to say: Because there is a big reflection on the movie "Crazy Rabbit" (and it is very scary), so the scumbag author changed the title of the film to "Fantastic Rabbit"

Brother Lu also understands this truth, but it's really hard to say whether "The Magical Rabbit" will be able to return to the original.Because the company's publicity expenses have exceeded the production cost by a lot. In addition, in order to squeeze out the film, the commission for the cinema is not calculated according to the low price of the ticket, but according to the original price.

In this way, the box office pressure on a movie that could have paid back its original 6000 million yuan has suddenly increased to more than [-] million yuan.

The summer movie market was already in a slump. Before that, there were not many screenings and not much box office. Lu Jianyuan was restless and afraid that Lu Jianxing would make a joke, so he simply went to the meeting room and kept scanning with his mobile phone.

However, what is surprising is that "Magic Rabbit" has the highest attendance rate.

He himself was surprised, and when he saw the real-time box office soaring, he was surprised and nervous, and kept refreshing to see the new data.

Chen Cai was also at the company that day, and everyone else was concerned about the rabbit's first-day box office, while he was busy arguing with Jiang Shuai on the other end of the phone.

Jiang Shuai didn't sign a contract after coming here yesterday, and he doesn't know where to wander today. Sister VV called Chen Cai to tell him to implement the matter as soon as possible. Chen Cai took advantage of no one's attention, but changed her rhetoric after calling.

He first tried hard to persuade Jiang Shuai not to enter the industry, saying how hard and tiring this industry is, but Jiang Shuai naturally refused to listen, and Chen Cai persuaded him not to join his own company, and if it was impossible, don't ask him to be his agent, after all, he is still young Well, there are no resources.

Jiang Shuai didn't take it seriously at all: "What resources, you don't have them, I have them, let me introduce them to you!"

Chen Cai couldn't laugh or cry: "Then who is the agent for whom? Isn't it great that you have the resources to play by yourself?"

Jiang Shuai said solemnly: "I have resources but no team. What should I do if I lose a good hand?"

Chen Cai: "..."

"Besides, there are so many messy things in the circle, I can't just take care of everything, some things have to be replaced by someone, right?"

"You're quite self-conscious," Chen Cai said speechlessly, "You're planning to be the one who will take the blame for yourself before you're famous."

Jiang Shuai couldn't help laughing on the other end, and corrected him: "You don't need to take the blame, let others take the blame. I will send you two little followers later."

"...Be serious," Chen Cai was convinced, and asked him seriously, "Didn't you want to enter the entertainment industry before? So many people poached you and you were scolded away, why did you suddenly change?"

Chen Cai remembered that Jiang Shuai said more than once that the entertainment industry was too chaotic and there were not many fuel-efficient lamps, so stay away from it in the future.At that time, when others poached him, he refused, and the other party refused to give up, and he even scolded him, so Chen Cai couldn't figure out why he suddenly changed his mind.

Who knows that Jiang Shuai doesn't seem to want to explain, humming: "One moment and another moment. Besides, I don't feel at ease following others, but it's definitely okay to follow you, and you won't cheat me."

Chen Cai heard that she couldn't ask any questions, so she had to give a few words of advice and then hung up.

He has nothing to do with this person, and now sister VV is obviously using Jiang Shuai as fat, and she would rather let him coax her than let Yang Xue and Sun Quan get in touch.Chen Cai had a terrible headache, but Yang Xue's heart had long been agitated.

This day for lunch, it was rare for her to go to the company's restaurant. She saw Chen Cai's position from a distance, bought something casually, and looked for it with a plate.

Chen Cai looked up to see her, and greeted her with a smile.

Yang Xue sat down on the opposite side, and then asked: "I heard that the company has a newcomer, which is very good. Sister VV is assigned to you?"

Now she and Sun Quan are acting vice presidents in rotation. Although there is an agent in front of her, and it is a situation where you are the first day and I am the fifteenth, they both enjoy it.

Chen Cai didn't hide anything, nodded and said: "I came here yesterday, he is very handsome, it's a pity that Mr. Yang didn't meet him."

"Don't worry," Yang Xue said with a smile, "there will be many opportunities to meet in the company in the future, and we will always meet. But you, you have only signed with Luo Bo for a few days, and you are about to take over a newcomer who just entered the industry. It’s not opened, it’s almost like breastfeeding a baby, so you can get busy?”

Seeing that Chen Cai bowed her head and fiddled with the rice and said nothing, she continued, "I have an idea, but I also consider that you and I are colleagues after all. Think about it. If you misunderstand, it will be meaningless."

Chen Cai guessed her reason for coming, and said with a smile: "That's what I said, Mr. Yang, you are also my leader now, and I can't ask for advice on work. How can I just think wildly."

Yang Xue nodded: "I'm also a happy person. If you say that, then don't worry about other things. I heard that this newcomer has some background and knows you too, but to be honest, you can't hold him down in this situation. .”

She paused after she finished speaking, and seeing that Chen Cai had no dissatisfaction, she smiled and continued: "We are agents, to put it bluntly, we provide professional services. Planning, drawing blueprints, and customizing development routes. But most newcomers have low obedience and pay too much attention to self-feeling. I want to drink, I want to rest, why can’t I do this, why can’t I say that... He doesn’t understand the rules, you have to give He stands. This early running-in is a waste of time. And this is very difficult for you to do."

Chen Cai wasn't afraid of this, but she really didn't want to take over this matter, so she hurriedly said, "Then sister Yang, what can you do?"

After he finished speaking, he paused, and first expressed his attitude, "To be honest, I refused to come to this matter, but people speak lightly and no one cares. It would be great if Sister Yang had any ideas and arrangements, which would be of great help to me."

Yang Xue was surprised: "You don't want to bring new people?"

"I don't have the energy," Chen Cai said, "I'm worried about Luo Bo's affairs. I've been auditioned everywhere and I've been rejected by others. Although I went to the crew this time, I'm also worried. I'm afraid I will suddenly receive a call saying that I don't want him gone."

He just made an excuse casually, and didn't think of a routine. Who would have thought that Yang Xue thought for a while, shook her head and said, "This time probably not, the crew and director Han don't know each other. And with Xu Huan here, the two of them packed it in." , not at all."

Chen Cai responded casually, then suddenly realized that she suddenly opened her eyes and looked up at her.

Yang Xue lowered her head, pretending to pick up vegetables for dinner, but reminded in a very low voice: "Luo Bo's first film was Han's, and then the two fell out."

Director Han was the leader in the early TV circles, and all the TV shows he made were popular, and almost everyone was popular.This person is also talented, as a director, screenwriter and dubbing, everything is top-notch.When Chen Cai was in school, she saw that this man liked men, but thought it was nonsense, because this man was old and ugly, and his wife was one of the four most beautiful.Later, those posts disappeared, and these things were not passed on.

"Robo was lucky back then. Just as he turned his back on him, something happened to him, so Rob returned the fire for two years. Later, Han made a comeback. Play tricks."

"How many years have passed now?" Chen Cai asked in surprise, "As for hating so many years?"

"What do you think? That person is cruel. There are not one or two people who were blocked by him. But in the final analysis, these people have no background and no backing, and the influence of the surname Han is extraordinary. They are a group of their own. The circle is very grouped, he is not old when he is old. There are many sharp-headed people who want to squeeze in and want to please him, what else can they do?" Yang Xue sighed after finishing speaking, shook her head and sighed, "This business, that's it. , worship the high and step on the low, this man, don't lose power if you lose anything."

She still had something to do, so she said hello and turned to leave.Seeing that her food was barely moving, Chen Cai felt emotional for a while, but couldn't help wondering what Yang Xue would do.

When he returned to the company in the afternoon, he took a special look at Yang Xue's side. There was no one in the office there, and he should have gone out at noon.

Chen Cai took a short breath, and was looking up information about that director Han in her office. While she was busy, she saw a group of people walking towards the conference room for high-level executives not far away. Brother Lu was at the front , followed by a few vice presidents, everyone looked very strange, with mixed expressions of joy and anger.

Chen Cai glanced back and forth a few times but didn't see Lu Jianxing, and heard someone chattering behind him as if talking in a low voice, she didn't bother, picked up her cup and pretended to pass by, and within two steps, she was thrown into a crowd of people.

Those few people were completely unprepared, and even greeted him warmly when they saw him: "Look, look! The rabbit is going to explode!"

What is Chen Cai thinking about?After taking a closer look, I realized that these people were watching the real-time box office of the ticketing platform.The number one above is none other than "Fantastic Rabbit".

"Look, Brother Chen," the colleague stomped excitedly, "The rabbit is estimated to exceed [-] million today!"

Chen Cai was taken aback. Although he knew that the colleagues in the Propaganda Department had been busy working on this film recently, generally speaking, the publicity was a little late, and there had been no news before.

While he was shocked here, he was as happy as his colleagues in his heart, and hurried to the work group to congratulate his colleagues in the Publicity Department and Publishing Department.

It's just that there was jubilation outside, but the atmosphere in the meeting room a few meters away was not right.

Tianyi's Propaganda Department and the Distribution Department have always been at odds due to historical issues, either pushing each other's way or competing for credit.Lu Jianyuan didn't want someone to engage in infighting at the beginning of the incident, so he had to comfort him, but as soon as the gunpowder went down here, Xiao Wang Dong sighed heavily.

Lu Jianyuan frowned and looked over, and heard him regretfully say: "I know Mr. Lu, you are young and energetic, and you usually make some decisions, promote a few people, and insist on guarding against our vice presidents. It is said that we are in the same company and should be united. Mutual aid, when you guarded against us, we didn't say anything. But this time, isn't it too much?"

As soon as he spoke, the others fell silent, looking at him and Lu Jianyuan secretly.

Lu Jianyuan sneered and asked, "What does Mr. Wang mean? What are you dissatisfied with?"

Wang Dong didn't answer him, he turned his head and glanced at the others, shook his head and shrugged, then spread his hands again, with a helpless expression on his face.After doing enough, he said slowly: "There are too many unsatisfactory things... Let's talk about the ticket compensation this time. This is the first time I have heard that the ticket compensation is higher than the production cost. What kind of concept is this? Our God How much is Yi's annual net profit? There is also a commission from the sale, today the film will exceed [-] million, and the company will give away a small [-] million for nothing in a day."

"I also agree with Mr. Wang's statement on this point," someone on the side echoed, "The cost of publicity and distribution of the movie was only a few million before, judging from the current momentum, it can be paid back on the first day, and then it will be pure profit. .Now it’s a good thing, the money has been divided by others, and the platform and theaters have been replenished, and we ended up losing money and making money!”

Lu Jianyuan thought that this would happen, but he didn't expect them to speak so forcefully that he was almost trembling with anger: "Then according to Wang Dong's idea, with a few million publicity fees, 42% of today's films can be produced?? You guys Fucking dreaming!"

Director Wang smiled and said, "Even if there is no 40%, there will always be 30% of the first day's schedule. We can accept 6000 million box office on the first day. 6000 million can almost pay back!"

After he finished speaking, he looked to the side, and the people below immediately began to discuss in whispers.

Lu Jianyuan was annoyed. From the corner of his eye, he caught a glimpse of someone moving outside. When he turned his head, he saw that the door of the conference room was gently pushed open.Wearing a windbreaker, Lu Jianxing hurried in with a few documents in his hand.

Several people in the discussion were a little surprised, and looked towards the door with different expressions.

However, Lu Jianxing didn't care about the focus of these eyes. He first put down a stack of papers, and then said to the vice president of the Propaganda Department, "Dongshi Media issued a statement angrily accusing us of unfair competition. You should deal with it."

This matter is important, the vice president quickly got up, and was about to leave when he was suddenly stopped.

"Since it's a meeting, why didn't anyone take minutes?" Lu Jianxing looked around, then tapped on the table lightly, and a person came in from the secretary's office.

The other party seemed to have been prepared for a long time. After coming in, he found his position and immediately started working mode.

Lu Jianxing first said to the vice president: "You go down a few minutes later, and you will leave later after signing." After speaking, he asked, "What did everyone talk about just now? Who will repeat it now."

Someone next to him speculated on the situation, and immediately recited the speeches of the few people just now.Lu Jianxing paid a little attention to that person, but at the end he laughed.

"I didn't know Mr. Wang was so powerful before, but company affairs are not child's play, and the market will not follow personal wishes. If it weren't for the change of marketing strategy this time, no one can say how the box office of "Magic Rabbit" will be. Today's premiere To achieve such good results, we should first express our gratitude to the decision makers and executors." After he finished speaking, he smiled again and said to Mr. Wang, "However, for Mr. Wang's doubts and regrets, , we should also pay enough attention.”

He seldom stands out, and he is also reticent in meetings, most of which are played by Lu Jianyuan himself.Hearing his words, Wang Dong guessed that this person was here to smooth things over, he couldn't help laughing, and then said contemptuously: "It's easy to say, how do you take it seriously?"

"Wang Dong has been trying his best to promote the gambling between Tianyi and Zhongyin this year, and he seems to be very keen on this business." Lu Jianxing held down the information in his hand, pushed it forward lightly, and said with a smile, "Then How about just following what you just said, we have an internal bet. According to Wang Dong’s logic, Rabbit invests 2000 million, 500 million is announced, and the box office will definitely be 6000 million on the first day. Then our National Day file "Trek" invested 1.2 3000 million, does it mean that only 3.6 million is needed for the announcement, and [-] million box office can be achieved on the first day?"

Wang Dong was startled, and suddenly couldn't continue.

Lu Jianxing smiled and continued: "Then let's take this as a bet now. As long as Director Wang can get 3000 million publicity fees and win 3.6 million box office on the first day, then I will transfer 10 million yuan in my hands to you." % of the shares. Conversely, if Mr. Wang can’t do it, then you need to transfer 10% of the shares to me. Mr. Wang, how about this proposal?”

As soon as this remark came out, the conference room fell silent.

Lu Jianyuan was also taken aback, and at the same time applauded in his heart, he couldn't help but look at Lu Jianxing frequently, admiring his courage.

The eyes of the others rolled wildly, not only wondering whether the hands-off shopkeeper had taken medicine today, but also feeling that the current scene was really lively.

Everyone looked at Wang Dong silently, waiting for his response.

"The company's affairs can be fooled casually with a paper bet!" Dong Wang hated in his heart, but he didn't dare to accept it. He just said in a high-sounding tone, "Mr. Lu, you are too much playing with the company's affairs!"

"Then these words must be returned to you in the original words. Without Jianyuan's decision and the efforts of colleagues in the publicity department, where would the high box office come from? Wang Dong casually set a rule and used it to question others, and I reversed it." I asked you, but you didn't admit it."

Lu Jianxing took back those few pages of the contract, and then sneered, "That's simple, for today's matter, Director Wang will either accept the bet, or publicly apologize on the company's intranet for his unreasonable troubles that disrupted the company's order."

After he finished speaking, he glanced at the others: "I don't ask you to be united and friendly, but if anyone wants to point the knife inward and hold back, then I'm afraid it won't work."

Brother Lu was sitting on the side, and couldn't help but look at the expressions of the crowd. Some of them looked very unnatural, and they seemed to be really intimidated.That Wang Dong couldn't go up or down in one breath, his old face was flushed, and he didn't move.

He finally let out a sigh of relief in his heart, and while he was happy, he was curious about the gambling agreement.

The contract has been under Lu Jianxing's hands all the time, probably because of a moment of excitement, it was always tails up.Brother Lu quietly took out a copy, glanced at it, and was immediately dumbfounded.

The black and white words on it, where is the gambling agreement, there is only a big row - "Housing Lease Contract"
