"Any new movies delivered today?"

In the studios of major movie theaters, the staff are sitting in front of the computer with their legs crossed, preparing to arrange films for next month's theaters.

Next month happens to be the month of the movie Clash of the Gods, when many blockbuster movies will be released together. Recently, the film scheduling rate of the pre-sale schedule alone has basically taken up more than half of the prime schedule next month, leaving only some late-night slots that are not very good.

Movie theaters have to make money even when they are open, so late-night stalls cannot be wasted on this. Especially when there are so many movies next month, it is not very cost-effective to choose which movie to put in the late-night file. Instead, various screening halls fight in the prime time.

"It would be great if a horror movie could be sent to the late-night file, otherwise no one would want to watch it in the middle of the night."

The staff sighed when they talked about it.

It’s impossible to imagine,? It’s been a long time since there have been any outstanding domestic horror films. In addition, the market has not been very prosperous. There are too many shoddy movies, and the audience’s enthusiasm has declined. Over time, no investors are willing to invest in this area. No one invests, and the director of the crew can't get money,? So a vicious circle is formed.

"Let me take a look... hmm? Why did the satellite transmit a new film source?"

Just as everyone shook their heads, sighed and chatted, a staff member suddenly said unexpectedly.

"Is it that new Hollywood commercial Star Wars movie?"

Another person continued: "The courier has sent the hard drive over yesterday,? It's already in the file, so don't look at it."

"Not yesterday's one,? I received the key for yesterday's one."

The staff member shook his head: "The name of this movie is... "Ghost House"?"

Good guy, when it comes to horror movies, there really is a horror movie.

"Huh? Horror movie? I haven't heard of any horror movie being completed recently."

"Indeed,? The one about paper figurines that received the most attention seems to have just started."

"Maybe it's a low-budget horror film with a small crew, right? Not too scary."

People in the office came over curiously, waiting for the encrypted folder to be transferred.

When the transmission was completed, many people gasped.

"Schedule films according to the highest level first?!"

Scheduling of films generally depends on the pre-sale attendance rate. If there are many pre-sale tickets, if the cinema wants to make money, it will of course arrange more good time slots. In addition, if the pre-sale results are not satisfactory and you still want to get a good position when ordering screenings in advance, you will have to spend more money.

Of course, this Dorset's money is naturally not a small amount, unless you are backed by a big investor, you don't even have to think about it.

"This level of on-demand access ... I haven't seen one this year."

They swallowed, and looked at each other, "And director Q? I've never heard of the name of the director or actor, and they haven't even held the opening ceremony, have they even ordered screenings?"

Which movie company is this rich? There was no rumor about it before.

"And... comedies, spy horror movies? What kind of unreliable category is this?"

The staff even hesitated to speak. This label classification really makes people speechless.

"Forget it, even if it's a bad movie, but at least they have money. Since they have priority viewing rights, let those movies that have been scheduled for prime time be moved for a day, and let's arrange a later evening time slot for this one first."

Being able to add this kind of authority without making a sound, it can only be said that the company behind it must not be able to provoke it, and it may have a lot of background.

"It's just the first show, and it's still a priority. You can open a separate small screening hall in prime time first, so it's not considered an offense."

Thinking of this, they all nodded in agreement and went to make a film for this ghost building, and released the pre-sale on various platforms after the film was finished.

To be honest, this strange classification, unknown directors and unknown actors, coupled with the fact that from the start of the filming to the completion of the editing and submission to the final release, let alone the popularity on the Internet, there is not even a bit of news, it can be imagined How dismal the final pre-sale will be.

As a result, no one expected that just 15 minutes after the pre-sale tickets were put up, the staff logged into the backstage again and exclaimed in disbelief: "All the tickets for the "Ghost Building" screening are sold out?"

They lined up a VIP screening hall with 50 small seats for ordering screenings, but it didn't take long before it showed that all seats were full and sold out.

Not only this movie theater, but many other movie theaters in Jiangzhou have also experienced the same situation. As long as it is placed in the place where the pre-sale and screening invitations are received, almost no tickets are reserved for the first show of the day, and all of them are sold out, and there are even many direct reservations.

Many people were amazed, "Which super rich second generation is here to play movies? The ticket price is not cheap after all."

On the other side, the Ouroboros organization is in full swing.

Almost all the movie theaters showing "Ghost Building" in Jiangzhou City were booked by them.

Director Q's second work. Everyone knows its importance.

It doesn't matter whether the audience will buy it or not, but it is certain that the whole world will watch it.

It's just that no one expected that the way the last "Desolate Village" was released was so mysterious. After the news came from the artist that the filming was over, the major organizations immediately sent people to the cinema to stay every day. As a result, it was not until today that the news that "The Eight Classics of Ghost Building" was released in theaters was really unexpected.

Of course, no matter what method or how unexpected it was, after the movie was released, everyone in the other world who knew something about the director rushed to the scene to watch it immediately.

Discussions in the actor forum are even more in full swing.

["Ghost House" premieres in a few days, is anyone going to see it?]

1L: Nonsense, of course I’ll go see it, the tickets for the first show here are all sold out, and I can’t even grab them. What kind of rubbish cinema has so few films.

2L: Satisfy you, other movies have to be reviewed for pre-sale, this one just finished filming last week, and it's about to be released, who doesn't say that the director is awesome after watching it

3L: Definitely watch it, isn’t it said that the S-level bosses also participated in this movie

4L: Damn it! The big artist has participated in the performance, this is definitely a must! ! !

5L: When the actor system was bound, who would have thought that it would be possible to be on TV one day

...

Soon, time passed slowly in the discussions on the actor forum, and finally the day of the release came.

"Ghost Building" is not a very long movie, only a little over 90 minutes in total.

Soon, the actors who watched the advance screening came out of the cinema one after another, all of them with heavy hearts.

"Director Q, it's really... so scary."

Such a horror and immersive movie, just thinking about substituting them in and shooting it would be suffocating. As a result, the director abruptly cut such a difficult movie into a comedy spy movie.

The most frightening thing is... Even the big artist has not escaped from the clutches of director Q, and has been reduced to a role in the blame several times, unable to control the plot.

You know, senior actors can control the plot to a certain extent. However, the existence rate of Yu Chenxue in this movie is not even as good as the crow.

[After watching today's "Ghost Building", I feel heavy, the world is really going to change]

[After watching "Ghost Building": A glimpse of director Q's dominance from a movie]

Even with the aftertaste of the actors being so heavy, Ouroboros will only get more nervous.

"Even artists are under the control of Director Q!"

The candles were flickering in the great hall, and several speakers and high-ranking councilors looked ugly.

The speaker of the black party even walked back and forth on the spot with his hands behind his back, stroking his beard from time to time, heartbroken.

"Originally, the director system should be in our pocket, but now we have no clues about the other party! We can even lose track of an actor last week, trash!"

indeed.

Before they focused on the two actors Anna and Crow.

The crow is a member of Ouroboros, but obviously, whether it was the provocation of the director in "Desolate Village", or the lowest-level D-level actor Anna after the release of "Ghost Tower", the one who died was Ouroboros high-level A A top actor with a red scarf is enough to show the director's attitude.

Anna was fine, she lost her right away. It is said that the person who took the order was in a trance, and returned the deposit directly, and was unmoved by the organization's high intelligence fee, only saying that he had provoked someone who shouldn't be provoked.

Someone you shouldn't mess with

The black speaker sneered.

If you say you shouldn't provoke him, he finished provoking him sixteen years ago, so why wait until today

"Where is the artist, have you got in touch?"

The chairman of the blue party frowned: "The instructor said that everything you want to know is in the movie, and he has nothing to say about the rest."

The black speaker seemed about to get angry, but in the end he was hesitant and snorted heavily.

Some congressmen speculated in amazement: "Could it be that the director's intention is to dominate the world?"

The last movie was released for two days. Except for the actors, all the audience who were lucky to be selected were forced to bind the actor system. If it is released directly in theaters this time, wouldn't anyone who watches the movie become an actor

This idea has been affirmed by many people. After all, becoming an actor means always lowering the director's head.

"No, we absolutely cannot let the director achieve his goal!"

The black speaker slapped the table and made a direct phone call to book all the upcoming screenings in the next dozen movie theaters in Jiangzhou and Haizhou.

The chairman of Deep Blue hesitated to speak: "It's too impulsive, we haven't figured out the director's intention, so it's too hasty to act rashly."

"What can be hasty? Is there anyone in the world who doesn't know the high reward we offer? We intercepted the movie tickets so that we can take the initiative. Is it possible that his director is still greedy for the box office money?"

...

In the end, the meeting broke up unhappy.

However, on the other side, the culprit has no such awareness at all.

He edited for seven full days before he had time to take a good rest.

After waking up, Zong Qi didn't see a ghost at home again, and left a crooked note on the table, recording with a brush that they went out to buy a mobile phone.

Zong Qi recalled that there was such a thing. A few days ago, I heard that Xiaohong had an idea to let the cowards do the live broadcast, which was quite thoughtful.

Alone at home, he didn't bother to start a fire, so he just picked up the key and went out, and went downstairs to eat something.

"Ding-"

The black-haired young man yawned and was about to go out when he opened the door and found a familiar white figure at the door.

"What a coincidence."

Yu Chenxue withdrew her hand that was about to knock on the door: "Are you going to go out?"

The author has something to say: Ouroboros member: Is it possible that his director is still coveting the box office money

77: That's right! ! I'm short of money, big brother! ! !
