Chapter 559

Under the same night sky, several people are happy and several people are worried.

Shanghuan, Xiangjiang branch of Huaguan film, although it is more than 7 p.m., many employees are working overtime. The office area is shrouded in an invisible and repressive atmosphere, which makes everyone cautious. Even the strength of typing the keyboard has become much softer, as if hitting the key points will suffer disaster.

This low pressure lasted for several days in the company.

However, a week ago, the situation was completely different. Huaguan film and Star art entertainment's "painted skin" sold well at the box office and crushed its rivals. It was incomparable scenery. A celebration party was held early.

At that time, the atmosphere in the office was very relaxed. Everyone was full of energy and energy. The common goal was to make the box office of "painted skin" break through the 100 million mark in Hong Kong, and then pursue and kill the mainland while winning.

But who could have thought that the situation would turn sharply in just a few days. The box office of "painted skin" fell to make people vomit blood, and the market reputation was terrible. Don't say more than 100 million, even breaking through 50 million is an extravagant hope.

Such ups and downs really make people confused. Many employees are even confused. They don't know how long they can work in this job. Will Huaguan film, which suffered a disastrous defeat, withdraw from Xiangjiang?

In fact, the same question is also torturing Cui Xingxian, the head of Huaguan film.

Huaguan film was one of the first mainland film companies to enter Hong Kong Island after Xiangjiang introduced the new film policy. At that time, Cui Xingxian was ambitious and cooperated with Star art entertainment to launch a project to shoot "painted skin" in the shortest time, with the intention of cutting the largest piece of this attractive cake.

"Painted skin" has invested more than 100 million. Cui Xingxian's goal is to win one billion box office worldwide and launch Huaguan film's first shot to go south to Xiangjiang.

But the first step of his ambitious plan was a blow to the head!

On the surface, "painted skin" has achieved a good box office, once breaking the weekly box office record of Hong Kong made (CO produced) films in Hong Kong.

But outsiders may not know that Cui Xingxian himself clearly knows that behind the box office of "painted skin" is a huge amount of advertising investment and a large amount of marketing support costs.

If the cost is calculated, Xiangjiang's box office share is not enough to make up for the investment in advertising and marketing, let alone the cost of shooting and production. It's a mess.

Huaguan film is a big business and can afford to lose tens of millions, but its partner Xingyi entertainment can't stand it. The two sides have serious differences in the follow-up publicity of the film, which almost came to the edge of breaking up.

Cui Xingxian was so angry that he wanted to smash the ashtray on the table into each other's face when he remembered the mean and stingy face of the general manager of Xingyi entertainment during the last meeting and consultation.

Hit the evil spirit!

When Cui Xingxian first came to Xiangjiang, he met a master at a party among his friends. The other party told him that he had evil spirits in his life recently, and it would be difficult to make mistakes.

Cui Xingxian laughed it off at that time. Now he knows that the master is really capable.

His "Sha" is undoubtedly Lu Chen!

When I think of Lu Chen, Cui Xingxian hates his teeth itching. This boy who doesn't know from which horn pimple suddenly sprang out, not only took away the beauty he wanted to pursue, but also became a stumbling block on the development of Huaguan film.

Let him stumble!

However, Cui Xingxian had nothing to do with Lu Chen. Lu Chen had the support of the Li family behind him. Cui Xingxian couldn't provoke him at all. He plotted against him and couldn't fight directly. As a result, he was defeated again.

Lu Chen is the bane of his life!

Sitting in the office, Cui Xingxian thought more and more. He couldn't help but stretch out his hand and pull off his tie to make his breathing smoother. Then he habitually held the mouse and opened the website of Hong Kong Island news.

He just clicked on the web page and a news pop-up window popped up.

"The box office of the ghost of a beautiful girl broke half a billion, and the stars gathered at the celebration party of Shangri La Hotel!"

“****！”

Cui Xingxian's mood finally completely out of control, grabbed the mouse and smashed it against the wall.

Bang! With a crisp sound, the valuable Bluetooth mouse fell apart on the spot and died!

The Secretary sitting in the outer room across a wall was startled. He secretly turned his head and looked at the office with the door closed. He was very tangled - do you want to go in and ask?

Recently, the boss's temper is getting worse and worse. She is worried that she will become a tool to vent her anger.

Cui Xingxian, who fell something, finally recovered a little calm. He pressed the internal contact button of the phone and asked the Secretary to find a new mouse for himself, while gritting his teeth and secretly swearing.

"Lu Chen, let you be proud this time. We'll see!"

Unlike Xiangjiang, the home of Huaguan film is still in the mainland, and "painted skin" has not lost!

Cui Xingxian's resentment is so strong that Lu Chen, who is now in the banquet hall of Shangri La Hotel, feels a chill.

"What's the matter?"

Chen Feier, who was beside Lu Chen, shivered when she saw him. She asked with concern, "have a cold?"

Lu Chen rubbed his nose and said with a smile, "no, I suddenly feel a little cold."

"Is it still cold?"

Chen Feier looked around and said with a smile, "it's busy enough in the evening."

"Ghost of a beautiful girl" was released for seven days, with a box office of more than 50 million. It is natural to hold a celebration party. This time, it was particularly grand under the strong requirements of Jiayang film industry.

In Xiangjiang, the celebration of film sales is a tradition and a means of publicity or, more accurately, showing off. Therefore, the organizers should invite all media and guests from all aspects outside the inner circle to join in.

In this world, there are very few people who provide timely help, and there are countless icing on the cake. Lu Chen studio and Jiayang film widely send invitations. Unless they can't really come, they all attend in person or send someone to attend.

All the friends Lu Chen knew in Xiangjiang entertainment circle came to join in. Liu Gangsheng failed to participate because he performed in the mainland. He also specially called Lu Chen to express his congratulations.

Therefore, the huge banquet hall of Shangri La Hotel is full of guests, and the well-dressed gentlemen and ladies are in groups, making it a real arena for fame and wealth.

As the protagonists of the celebration dinner, Lu Chen and Chen Feier undoubtedly got too much attention. They are the focus of attention wherever they are. There are countless people who know each other and chat up.

Lu Chen doesn't really like this kind of communication, but if Lu Chen studio wants to grow in Xiangjiang, it is very necessary to expand the network resources in the circle.

This is probably the so-called people can't help themselves in the Jianghu.

Of course, I don't know how many people will envy this kind of "involuntarily" and pursue it hard!
