Yue Guan and Bi Zhifei did not avoid Shen Teng and Da Tiantian when they called, so they both heard it.
Although they didn't know what movie Yue Guan wanted to make with Director Bi.
However, the name Bi Zhifei alone made them feel so terrifying.
After Yue Guan hung up the phone, Da Tiantian's voice stuttered a little: "Yue... Yue Guan, do you want to make a movie with Director Bi?"
"Yes, Director Bi's theoretical foundation is still very strong. You also know that in the movie "The Richest Man in Xihong City", Director Bi actually worked as an assistant director."
"His theoretical foundation is strong, but the success of "The Richest Man in Xihong City" has nothing to do with him. It's all about your control."
Da Tiantian directly attributed the credit to Yue Guan.
There's nothing wrong with being reasonable.
If "The Richest Man in Xihong City" was given full control to Director Bi, there's no telling how it would turn out.
Shen Teng thought of more things than Da Tiantian.
Yue Guan had just answered Xu Zheng's call and called Director Bi back. He also said on the phone that he would pair Director Bi with a big-name actor.
It’s terrifying to think about it.
"Director Yue, don't you want to recommend Xu Zheng to Director Bi?" Shen Teng asked.
Yue Guan glanced at Shen Teng in surprise: "Brother Teng's IQ has improved very quickly."
Shen Teng: "..."
Da Tiantian: "..."
After a moment, Da Tiantian said with a strange expression: "Isn't it too insulting to let Director Bi make a movie?"
"You don't understand, this movie can only be made by Director Bi."
If you want to make "The Master of Expansion", the requirements for the director are very high. The first is to be able to cover it, and the second is to be generous and willing to cover it.
Taking these two factors into account, there is no more suitable candidate than Director Bi in the world.
Yue Guan was unwilling to go into battle directly.
Director Bi can do it.
He was already sentenced to death anyway.
Now that Yue Guan has given him a chance to start a new life, what kind of bicycle does he want? Nothing else matters.
Besides, Director Bi originally looked down on these great directors. Yue Guan and Director Bi had known each other for more than a day or two, and he understood this.
Yue Guan estimated that Director Bi would be very excited if he really talked with Director Bi about the idea of "Expansion Master".
"Will Xu Zheng agree?" Shen Teng asked.
Yue Guan smiled and said, "Xu Zheng and I had an agreement beforehand. We're just willing to admit defeat. Besides, if he can make this movie well, I might be able to give him a best actor award."
Hearing what Yue Guan said, Shen Teng was moved: "A movie king? Yue Guan, what do you think of me?"
"You can't, you're not qualified to act in this drama."
Shen Teng originally felt sorry for Xu Zheng.
After hearing Yue Guan say that he was not even qualified to film this movie, his heartache turned into envy and hatred.
"Director Yue, why are you so nice to Xu Zheng?" Shen Teng was even a little jealous.
Yue Guan patted Shen Teng on the shoulder: "Your image is indeed inappropriate. There is nothing we can do about it."
Yue Guan was actually not joking with Shen Teng.
If "The Expansion Master" is completed, it is really possible for Xu Zheng to win the best actor.
The protagonist is set as an actor who is very innocent at first, and then goes up all the way, becoming brilliant and lonely, transforming into a director, becoming a box office hit, and reaching the pinnacle of life.
Then it starts to expand.
Begin to separate from the masses.
I began to feel filled with a sense of mission to educate the audience.
Eventually, the numbers in his bank card grew.
His audience is dwindling.
With Xu Zheng's acting skills, it's easy to do this kind of scene.
This kind of movie that satirizes reality has always been the favorite of professional judges.
This is popular at the Oscars and is actually popular at the Golden Dragon Awards.
If Xu Zheng acted in "The Expansion Master", Yue Guanzhen felt that he might be able to win an actor award with this drama.
Of course, whether Xu Zheng is willing to act is another question.
Anyway, he had made the bet on his own, and Yue Guan didn't force him.
"Okay, let's not discuss this for now. "The Richest Man in Xihong City" hasn't been released yet. Let's work harder and try to beat the box office of "Embarrassed in Thailand"."
In that case, "The Richest Man in Xihong City" will be the highest-grossing comedy in domestic films.
Hearing Yue Guan talk about this, Shen Teng and Da Tiantian also cheered up: "Is there any chance?"
"It depends on how much crotch is stretched in the back of "囧". As long as "囧" is a good foil, we will definitely still have a chance."
The quality of competitors at the same time determines your own height.
Behind the high box office of "Wolf Warrior 2", there is also a great contribution from "Three Lives Three Worlds Ten Miles of Peach Blossom".
Da Tiantian and Shen Teng are both sincerely looking forward to the continued crotch lifting in "囧".
The sincerity of both of them moved heaven.
The next day.
The box office gap between "The Richest Man in Xihong City" and "囧" has further widened.
"囧" is definitely not a blockbuster, but the upper limit of its potential is obviously getting lower and lower.
In the entire drama, except for Xu Zheng, the heroine Zhao Zhetian and the second male lead Bao Beier all have the ability to persuade them to quit. There is really no way around this.
Compared with the cast of "The Richest Man in Xihong City", they are not on the same level at all.
Not many people are paying attention to the box office of "囧" now.
Everyone is looking forward to whether the box office of "The Richest Man in Xihong City" can surpass "The Journey to Thailand" and become the highest-grossing domestic comedy movie.
Yue Guan is actually looking forward to it.
If you have a chance to win first place, why not
He doesn't think "The Richest Man in Xihong City" is better than "The Lost Man in Thailand", but the box office level is not absolutely proportional to the quality of the film.
At this time, no matter how humble you are, you are sick.
Yue Guan directly increased publicity funds by 10 million.
The publicity director of the crew of "The Richest Man in Xihong City" took the 10 million to market Yue Guan's performance in "The Richest Man in Xihong City".
In the words of the person in charge, what others should market has already been marketed, and there is little potential left.
The biggest selling point of our movie is you, the director.
Nothing wrong.
Yueguan's popularity is already the highest.
He didn't let the publicity department release his press release before, but in fact, in addition to being the director, he also had a publicity point for this drama.
He had a guest appearance in "The Richest Man in Xihong City".
Wearing a white suit, he sat in front of the piano, with the lights shining on Yue Guan. While playing the piano, he sang "Write a Poem for You" affectionately.
The publicity department cut out this video, and it started to flood the screens of major video websites, Weibo, Douyin, and Station B.
This video is not funny at all.
But really handsome.
And it’s broken.
Yueguan's fans burst into tears.
"I have always been looking forward to His Majesty's concert, but I never thought that I could only realize my dream in a movie."
"I've done it three times just to see His Majesty play the piano."
"Why is this man so handsome in Licking Screen?"
"I feel like I've been turned upside down."
…
"The Richest Man in Xihong City" actually has many classic funny clips, which are very magical.
Xuanfa did not let it go, and the edited short video attracted many viewers into the cinema.
However, this short video of Yue Guan playing and singing topped the list of views on all major video websites.
In terms of popularity, Yue Guan doesn't need to be humble now, he is arrogant.
And with enough publicity.
As a result, the box office of "The Richest Man in Xihong City" was an unexpected hit, bucking the trend and rising on October 3, and successfully surpassed the total box office of "囧 in Hong Kong".
Twenty-three days later, the total box office of "The Richest Man in Xihong City" officially surpassed "The Journey to Thailand" and became the highest-grossing domestic comedy film.
Yue Guan's directorial debut delivered a perfect answer.
