[PS: I don't think it's appropriate to see the arrangement of zero point field by some readers. You are right. It's really inappropriate for children's animation to be placed in zero point field, but a blockbuster must be tested by playing zero point field. This is a must, not only in zero point field in the future.]
"It's all right, maybe we can rely on word-of-mouth to turn things over!" megil quickly comforted herself after almost falling down with cerebral hemorrhage.
Although the zero point box office is too fierce, it is not impossible to remedy it. As long as the audience's scoring and reputation can go up later, there is still hope of resurgence.
So, after Meggie was worried for two hours, the film finally finished playing, and there was a burst of applause in the whole cinema. This applause is not very enthusiastic, but it is not too little, that is, the normal level.
But this level makes Meggie more anxious.
"Mr. Meggie, I'll see you in the hotel tomorrow!" after watching the film, boss Jia stood up very calmly, smiled with Meggie, then separated from Meggie and went back to his hotel to sleep.
By the way, if there is no miscalculation, Natasha should have been waiting for herself in bed at this time. The spring night is short. It's 2:20 a.m. now, we should hurry up!
But Meggie was not so interested. He went back to his home. At about 9:00 the next morning, boss Jia, who was still sleeping with Natasha, was awakened by his bodyguard. He said that Mr. Meggie had been waiting for him for half an hour.
"It's over! It's all over! Mr. Jia, it seems that we're all over this time!" megil said with a forced look on her face when she saw boss Jia.
"What's the matter? What's the matter?" boss Jia asked in surprise.
"The score of the audience at zero yesterday has come out. See for yourself!" Megill threw a piece of paper to boss Jia.
"Not bad, there are still 7.8 points!" seeing this score, boss Jia couldn't help laughing and said.
"Mr. Jia, sometimes I really admire you very much. You can laugh at such a situation!" Megill said helplessly.
"Of course I can laugh. In our hometown, 60 is a passing score. I got 78 and have passed!" boss Jia smiled.
"But the pass line can't save the film, let alone the huge cost we invested!" Megill wailed "Mr. Jia, our two companies have invested a total of $100 million! But the box office at zero point is only 550000, and the average score of 7.8 is as flat as water, which proves that in the eyes of the audience, this is a very ordinary work, and there is no possibility of outbreak in the later stage. Such a work may not even have a box office of $10 million. We will lose to grandma's house!"
Seeing Meggie's appearance, boss Jia couldn't help feeling, patted each other on the shoulder, and then asked, "by the way, the last element, how about the critics' comments?"
"It's too early now. Only a few morning newspapers have commented on the film critics, but the combination is two words" general "!" megil sighed again, and then handed the two newspaper clippings to boss Jia.
Boss Jia first saw the first newspaper clipping. There were a lot of words. There were thousands. Boss Jia read it for a long time and refined the following comments.
"This is a film jointly produced by Fox and Daqian entertainment in the 21st world. It is said that it has invested 100 million US dollars in the production cost. I just want to say that it is a waste of money."
"This film can't be said to be good or bad, because I can't find a place where I can praise him, but I can't find a place where I can scold him!"
"This film is completely made according to the standard commercial film routine of Hollywood. The 3D animation production is a little surprised, but it still feels too fake. Although the Pokemon on the screen looks very loving and real."
"Finally, this is a very average film. There is no memorable place. Sooner or later, it will not be thrown into the mediocre garbage. Adults are not recommended to watch it, but it's good to take children. At least children won't cry when they watch it!"
This is the first film critic's comment, and boss Jia saw the second one. This is a very brief introduction, because the film critic put together several recent films for comment, and Pokemon is the one with the least number of comments, just one sentence in total.
"It's very boring. I'm about to fall asleep. I don't understand why those pocket monsters fight. Fortunately, the children around me have been very quiet and focused on watching movies. I can have a good dream in the early morning. Thank you very much!"

"It's interesting to write!" after reading the two critics' comments, boss Jia couldn't help laughing.
"What's the point? The whole article says that our films are very mediocre, and specially points out that they are not suitable for adults. This is to kill us. These damn film critics must have been bribed by others!" Megill roared, and then directly threw the pot on his competitors.
This is also the way Megill can solve the bad situation, that is to throw all the pots on Daqian and his opponents. He is pure and flawless and has no responsibility.
In fact, there's no problem throwing this pot on Daqian. After all, boss Jia is quite arbitrary when making movies and doesn't give fox any chance to intervene in the plot in the 21st century. Therefore, boss Jia really should carry this pot.
"Hey, it seems that the film is really bad!" boss Jia shook his head and sighed. "Mr. megil, I'm very sorry to disappoint you!"
"Hey, I have nothing to be disappointed. I'm afraid the company has suffered unimaginable losses. I will..." Megill wailed.
"No, I won't let Mr. Megill bear the loss alone!" boss Jia said suddenly "Mr. Meggie, I think so. I can buy back all the shares in the films in the hands of 21st century fox. I will return all the money fox has invested to fox, so as not to let 21st Century Fox have any losses. Can this alleviate Meggie's difficulties?"
"Mr. Jia, you're not kidding!" Megill looked at Jia Yapeng in disbelief. Is there such a fool in the world?
"Of course I'm not kidding!" boss Jia couldn't help laughing. "To be honest, I'm very optimistic about the future of Pokemon. I think it's a film that can make money... At least it won't lose money. So I'm very happy to buy the remaining 30% of the film revenue investment in the hands of 21st century fox. As long as 21st century fox is willing, I can pay at any time!"
"But there is only one thing, that is, this commitment is only valid today. After 24 o'clock today, I won't have this commitment again!"
"I see!" Meggie quickly ran out of the hotel and probably went to the head office to discuss it.
"Jia, are you really sure that a movie with such bad data can make money?" after Meggie left, Natasha came out in her pajamas and asked curiously "I have also participated in the premiere of many films before, and I have had contact with many Hollywood managers. All the films that collapsed on the zero point three element basically have no possibility of turning over!"
"Well, let me ask you a question. You've seen the film. Do you think it's good? Tell the truth!" boss Jia smiled.
"Good looking!" Natasha did not say whether she nodded. "I really cried when I saw the appearance of dream and super dream, and when I saw them fighting for Pokemon!"
"That's right!" boss Jia picked up a newspaper clipping on the table and smiled. "In fact, these two film critics are good. Did you say that this is a film suitable for children!"
"These Hollywood filmmakers are so superstitious about zero point three elements that they forget that this is a film for teenagers!" boss Jia counseled.
