Superstars In Parallel Time and Space

"Chen Dong, the overall attendance rate is not bad, within our acceptable range." Bruce Li called Chen Mubai at night to report the situation.

"I have already managed to maximize the film schedule. Except for our theaters that have a little more film schedule, the other film schedules are not high. Even in prime time, there are only two or three shows at most. They still use American films. Lord."

"Unless the follow-up movie has a big explosion or the attendance rate is very high, it is possible to add a little film schedule, but it is estimated that there will not be too many."

Listening to Bruce Lee's report, Chen Mubai didn't speak. He didn't speak until the other party had finished speaking.

"Thank you for your hard work. We have just entered the American market from Huaxia. It is already very good to be able to do this. When we enter here, we have to get a share of the pie. Naturally, they are not happy to see us grow, and I am afraid that we will retreat."

"It's fine to play steadily. I guess if you are willing to give a little film arrangement, you want to see how our movie responds. This is an estimate of our prospects. After all, if we want to enter the international market, we must have a large ticket warehouse in North America. They are also looking at us. potential."

"Solomon is still promoting "Infernal Affairs". If our attendance rate is high, they will find stars who are bigger and more famous than us, and they will get more attention. At that time, the box office of their film will also be improved. "

"Look, if there are theaters that are willing to sell, we will acquire them and expand the scale bit by bit. Now that we have officially entered the American market, those companies are also guarding against us and will not allow us to expand comfortably. "

"However, capitalism is still based on money. No one will have trouble with money, and they can't be united. There must be a poorly managed theater chain that will be sold. If other companies want to stop us from acquiring it, then only they can do it." To buy, it will compete with us.”

"If you bid for the acquisition, I'm afraid the theaters selling it are very happy to see this situation. Once this happens, many theaters that don't make money will definitely have the idea of ​​selling it to make a fortune."

This is also easy to understand. Suddenly someone wants to take over something that is not profitable. As a result, people from two or more parties come to grab it. Naturally, the one with the highest price will get it.

This also means that the sale price will definitely be much higher than their expected price. After all, there are people competing to increase the price. If your price is low and the other party does not sell, there will always be someone willing to pay a high price.

Now Mubai Entertainment has just entered the American market, and if they want to further expand their influence, they can only spend money to open the way.

Mubai Entertainment's cash flow is very abundant, not to mention there are two big brothers behind it, both of whom are rich, and they are not short of money!

Weiyu has the ambition to enter the international market. Once it successfully invests in Mubai Entertainment, it will be very helpful to the spread of its products and greatly enhance the company's popularity.

Once this kind of prospect is seen, the income on stocks is calculated in tens of billions, what is this small amount of money?

Weiyu is bound to increase its bets to follow the investment, and it's not the kind of empty promise. Chen Mubai himself is investing money, so what reason do they not follow?

"Okay, I understand. I will pay attention to those theaters that are not doing well, and then I will contact them to see if they are willing to sell." Bruce Lee nodded.

Only when the boss let go, he can let go.

He can feel Chen Mubai's ambitions for the American film and television market, but he can't do it directly, he still needs Chen Mubai to open his mouth.

It will make the boss feel uncomfortable.

Therefore, when he was reporting, as long as he told Chen Mubai about the matter, the other party would definitely take measures.

This is also a small strategy, which can not only test Chen Mubai's meaning, but also get the answer.

 …

Half a month has passed.

The word-of-mouth of several movies has been stabilized. Among them, "Nezha: The Devil Boy Comes into the World" has the highest box office, with a box office of more than 20 million U.S. dollars, followed by "Infernal Affairs 2" with a box office of nearly 20 million U.S. dollars. Action" has a box office of more than 10 million.

This war movie is good, but the United States has had this type of movie, and it's not very good. In contrast, they are not very interested in this movie.

But what the film captures still raises the question, would a country really pay that price to save a citizen who is not very important?

At least not in the perception of the American people, the price paid is too great.

Many soldiers were sacrificed, and two people were killed by the special forces, and several people were disabled.

You must know that it is not easy to train every soldier of this level, and those who can enter the special forces are considered one in a million, and the sacrifice of such a character is to save a meaningless citizen?

If it is reasonable to say that it is to save ministers, scientists, and businessmen like the president, at least it is a person with a pivotal position, and the sacrifice is worth it.

There is no point in sacrificing for the sake of unimportant people!

But that being said, the message behind the film is worthy of attention. Many people believe that if a country can do this, it will really make the people feel safe.

Some people believe it and some people don't believe it, and there are discussions about it, but this movie is adapted from a true story, and there are indeed evacuation operations in similar situations, which adds a bit of credibility to the matter.

This is the power of cultural output. As long as the work can be published and people can watch it and trigger discussions, it will be successful.

So far, it seems that what Chen Mubai did together is quite successful.

Although the movie wasn't a big hit, it was still famous. Everyone still remembers the name Chen Mubai.

Under such circumstances, his new film and television drama "Prison Break" naturally attracted everyone's attention, and he also gained his own fans.

Originally, this show had been promoted before, but it was not strong enough. After all, the filming had just started, and the actors who appeared in it were not very famous to the American public, and few people paid attention to it.

It's different now. The word-of-mouth and response of the movie has been fed back to this drama, and there are quite a few people who pay attention.

Mubai Entertainment has also launched a vigorous promotion in the United States, because "Prison Break" is about to be released.

The first episode is broadcast first, and then one episode is broadcast every week. Like American and British dramas, do as the Romans do.

This method also makes it unnecessary for all film and television dramas to be broadcast before broadcasting, which greatly reduces the broadcast time for a long time.

It can be seen from the title of the play what type of work this is, and everyone is still very interested.

The portraits of Chen Mubai and Liang Wei are the most eye-catching in the stills. They are also the leading actors of "Infernal Affairs", which makes many people who like the movie "Infernal Affairs" interested.

After all, the performance of the two in "Infernal Affairs" was so good that it made people's eyes shine. Everyone still has confidence in their acting skills.

In addition, although the themes are different, they are also similar. Crime dramas are very interesting.

"Hey, Angle!" Mitchell greeted Angle.

"That Chinese star you like, Chen Mubai, his new work "Prison Break" is about to be released, did you know?"

Mitchell knew that Angle liked Chen Mubai at the movie theater last time, so he went back to learn more about him, and then he found that this Chinese star is a bit powerful, no wonder so many people in the United States are discussing him recently, his talent is so outstanding!

Even compared to many well-known international stars, Chen Mubai is not inferior to them, he is indeed very powerful.

After watching the movie last time, he made an appointment with Angle twice, but she brought Millie with her each time, and the three of them watched several works by Chen Mubai.

Mitchell knew little about Chen Mubai from the beginning to a very good understanding later on, and he also participated in the topic discussion. The three of them discussed happily, which made him see hope for a while.

It's just that he and Millie are talking most of the time, and Angle listens to the two of them talking more often. If people who don't know this see it, they will think that he is interested in Millie!

Angle is currently indifferent to his offensive, which makes him a little frustrated.

Fortunately, Millie noticed something. She is not stupid. If she didn't have some purpose, how could she come out to play every day?

This is not something that ordinary friends can do.

Then she specifically asked Angle about the specific situation, only to learn that Mitchell wanted to chase her, but at this stage she had no intention of falling in love.

After several contacts, Millie became interested in Mitchell, so she told Angle that if she was sure that she would not be with Mitchell, she would try to chase Mitchell.

Yes, Mitchell failed to impress Angle but impressed Millie...

Angle was a little surprised, but she really didn't intend to be with Mitchell, so she chose to help Millie and help her attack Mitchell.

She secretly set the two up, so every time they were together, Millie and Mitchell talked a lot, and she was more of an escort.

It's just that Mitchell didn't know about all of this, and he thought that Millie kept talking to him because of the active atmosphere and was afraid of embarrassing him, which made him have a different feeling for Millie in his heart.

"I know, but not every website has that show, only a few websites." Angle replied.

"Yes, I also want to ask you, I don't know where to watch it, but I don't know..." Mitchell nodded and said, "I usually watch TV shows on Fox and AMC, but both of them are Without Prison Break..."

Millie said, "I know, I told you about a website..."

"This website is a video website specially established by Chen Mubai. It focuses on Huaxia's film and television works. There will also be his own works, which will be released here in the future, so there is no need to go to other websites. In the future, chasing his works will be here, which is very convenient. .”

Mitchell was taken aback: "Really?"

"Yes." Millie nodded and smiled: "I saw in the media news that there is a person who doesn't think the drama produced by Chen Mubai is in line with our appetite, so they don't buy the copyright, even if a TV station buys this drama , and may not buy the next drama, so it’s better to go to his website.”

"Okay, I'll make a note of it, and I'll look for it when I get back." Mitchell nodded.

"Shall we watch it together?" Mitchell looked at the two and said sincerely: "I think we can buy some delicious food, let's look forward to it together?"

"Okay!" Millie said excitedly.

"Okay." Angle nodded in agreement.

"Okay, I'll be in charge of shopping, tell me what you want to eat, and I'll prepare it for you!" Mitchell smiled happily.

Well, all three are very happy.

They all felt that they had achieved what they wanted.

 …

"Prison Break" premieres at 12:00 local Friday.

If it is in China, Chen Mubai's works are usually displayed around 8 pm, which is the prime time, people can watch TV after get off work and school after staying at home after dinner.

But it’s different in the United States. There is usually a break at noon, and I don’t go to work until around 2 pm. During this period, I have absolute time to watch TV.

After get off work, instead, they may have various parties and go out to play, and there may not be as many people watching during the noon break.

Moreover, many people like to watch dramas and listen to music to pass the time during work hours. The joy of fishing at work is far more enjoyable than watching dramas after get off work~

It was broadcast at noon, even if some people might not have watched it, they can watch the replay or watch it on the website when they go back at night, which is not a hindrance.
