"Wha… what!!! How much?" A completely unbelievable voice came from the other end of the phone, "Fang… Manager Fang, did you make a mistake? Or are you talking about "I Only Like You" directed by Zheng Kangde? Did you accidentally confuse the two movies?"
The woman's voice was calm and steady. "You're right. It's Shen Mian's 'Dream Seeker'!"
"But... But this is absolutely impossible! Currently, the screening rate of "I Only Like You" alone is already 50%. How can we spare 60% for "Dream Seekers"? "
"Reduce the screening rate of "Like", such a simple question, do you need me to teach you? I want to see the new screening schedule tomorrow morning!" The woman said decisively and hung up the phone directly.
…
On the way home.
Ning Xi sat in the passenger seat, propped up her head and looked at Lu Tingxiao beside her and said, "Although there are only a few viewers, the reactions are quite good! There are hot spots almost every few minutes throughout the movie! If the attendance rate is high, the effect will definitely be great! But the female audience in front of us is so calm, she didn't react at all... Maybe she doesn't like this type of movie?"
Lu Tingxiao glanced at the girl in the rearview mirror and said, "Whether she likes it or not, you can find out tomorrow by paying attention to the screening rate of 'Dream Seekers' scheduled by Huaying."
Ning Xi was stunned when she heard this, "Huh? Huaying's screening rate? What does that mean?"
Lu Tingxiao: "That woman is Huaying's general manager, Fang Jiayue."
Ning Xi was stunned. "Oh my god! She is the general manager of Huaying Film Line? Why didn't you tell me when you were in there just now!"
Lu Tingxiao: "I didn't see her face at that time."
"Uh, okay..." Ning Xi was a little nervous when she learned that the mysterious female audience member was actually Fang Jiayue. "Hey, I don't know if she likes it or not! It would be terrible if she doesn't like it! The screening rate of our film is already pitifully low... Oh! I'm so nervous! Boss! Boss! Do you think she will like it?"
Lu Tingxiao: "I like it."
"Uh, why are you so sure?" Although Ning Xi was happy to hear that, she was still curious as to why Lu Tingxiao was so sure.
Lu Tingxiao glanced at the girl and said meaningfully, "If the general manager of Huaying is a man, the probability of him being optimistic about this film is 70%. If it is a woman, the probability is 100%."
Ning Xi sweatdropped for a moment: "Uh... Thank you so much for thinking so highly of my ability to seduce girls..."
…
The next day.
Today is the fourth day of the release of "I Only Like You" and the second day of the release of "Dream Seekers".
"I Only Like You" has become completely popular on the Internet and has become a hot topic. Whenever people talk about movies during this period, they will talk about this urban drama with the highest investment among domestic films this year. As for the box office, it has always been strong, and has now exceeded 300 million. The screening rate of major theaters has also been high.
For movies that make money, everyone is naturally willing to schedule more screenings.
The only cinema chain with a strange screening schedule that is out of tune with other cinema chains is the Huaying Cinema Chain.
At this moment, in the conference room of the Huaying Company building, the company's top executives were holding a meeting.
At the meeting, everyone looked unhappy.
Fang Jiayue's order last night has caused an uproar within the company today...
