Chapter 293(1/2)

[60,000 US dollars, hundreds of millions of US dollars in box office?!]

[DV movie, cross-age concept!]

[Genius director Daniel, Edyado, became famous in one fell swoop!]

One report, under the publicity of major media, newspapers, news and television and other media channels in the United States, a big wave was set off across the United States in just one day.

Marketing success?

Many people don’t think so, they just feel that they are being played with.

But there are also a large number of economists who believe this is a successful marketing campaign.

Both sides hold the same term.

Of course, most people have an attitude of venting their anger!

"The top secret file of shit, the real case of shit~"

"Putting aside the top secret archives and the witch gimmick, what's left of Blair the Witch? I dare say that without this fraudulent marketing, the movie could have a box office of $200,000, thankfully."

"To be honest, "Blair the Witch" is really awesome, and it can even be said to be trash."

In just half a day, public opinion reversed.

Genius directors Daniel and Edyado have become the targets of everyone's beating. Even the three starring actors in the film have been affected a lot and have been criticized as shameful liars.

Does Daniel care?

Is Edyado angry?

No!

On the contrary, they are secretly happy!

Daniel is 37 years old and Edyado is 31 years old. They don’t say that they are worthless and are poor, but they are just one of the ordinary people, and their lives can only be described as life-taking.

However...it's different now, they've become famous!

"With a production cost of $60,000, he created a movie with a box office of over 100 million US dollars. Who else in Hollywood can do it except us?"

"No!"

"None!"

"The only profit ratio is our "Witch Blair"!"

At this moment, Daniel and Edyado were very excited.

The mood was in full swing.

"Edyado, look, I'm right. What's the point of giving up some reputation, and what's the point of being scolded by someone? As long as we can get tickets to Hollywood and get the favor of major Hollywood film companies, then everything is worth it!"

Daniel was excited.

For this reason, he proposed to open a bottle of champagne to celebrate on the spot.

"You're right, Daniel!"

Edyado sighed: "Once upon a time, in the eyes of many people, we were just a piece of shit, an existence that everyone disliked and could be ignored at will. But now, who dares to ignore our existence? Even now, in the eyes of many people, we are still smelly shit, but now we have packed a layer of candy paper. As long as it is not exposed, we are delicious candy!"

People with dreams are not afraid of difficulties and suffering, but the most feared thing is to be ignored by others.

If others trample on you wantonly, it at least proves that you exist;

But once everyone ignores you, that is what Daniel and the others are most afraid of!

It is obvious that at this moment, they have achieved unprecedented success in a sense.

"Ding Ding Ding ~"

At this moment, the phone in the hotel room rang.

Daniel took the opportunity to answer the phone.

"Hello, who?"

"Oh, you're a Boston Post reporter and want to interview us?"

"no problem!"

"But there is a premise that I have to tell you, the California Entertainment News, the Global Times, the Washington Morning Post, and the Youth Daily, they made an appointment with us first. You can only queue up now, I'm very sorry."

"No~, it's not a matter of money!"

"What? $10,000 reward?"

"Well, since you are so sincere, there is no reason for Edyado and I to refuse you. Well, three days later, we can reserve you half an hour of exclusive interview time in three days."

After saying that, Daniel hung up the phone with a smile.

"Is it a meeting for an exclusive interview again?" Edyado asked with a smile.

"That's right."

Daniel said happily: "In addition to this one, there are already as many as 7 major media outlets, which shows how prosperous we are now."

They are proud, are they floating?

It is natural for anyone to become the darling of major media reports from an unknown person, and no one can remain calm.

Daniel said again: "Edyado, now, apart from the interview, I think we should talk to Wald Pictures."

"What are you talking about?"

"Of course we're talking about "Blair Witch 2". And this time, we can't be as hasty as last time. This time we don't have a director's salary of $2 million, so we will never direct "Blair Witch 2"."

Hearing Daniel's words, Edyado nodded heavily.

Only one movie "Blair Witch 1" did bring a considerable income to Daniel and the other two. With the big red envelopes given by Zhuke, they earned millions of dollars, but they believed that compared with Wald Pictures' income, they suffered a huge loss.

This time, the sequel is started, shouldn’t we get a little more?

.........

In the afternoon of that day.

After accepting an interview with the California Entertainment News, Daniel and the others came to Wald Pictures.

Vice President Kevin Feige met them in person.

"Hi, welcome to you, two talented directors." Kevin showed great enthusiasm.

That's what the film company is like.

Whoever can make money for the company is the old man.

"I'm glad to see you again, Mr. Feich." Daniel and the others responded enthusiastically.

After some chat.

Daniel said: "Mr. Feich, I think I should strike while the iron is hot now and immediately announce to the outside world that "The Witch Blair 2" will be about to start filming. This will definitely have a huge effect on the box office of our movie."

"That's right!"

Edyado quickly echoed: "We both take action, directed again, and assemble the original team, will surely create a higher box office."

Slap sex!

Kevin Feige nodded frequently and even applauded and showed goodwill.

"The two of you think is exactly the same as me." Kevin laughed.

real?

Suddenly, Daniel and the others showed a look of surprise.

Before they could ask questions, Kevin said again: "Don't worry, the second part will be filmed. You two are still the best candidates for the director."

"Thank you, thank you very much." Daniel and Edyado thanked repeatedly.

"but......."

Suddenly, Kevin Feige showed a hint of embarrassment again, "I believe you also know that it will take at least 4 to 8 months for the theater party to settle the share of our share and income, and our company's funds are a little tight."

Daniel: “….”

Edyado: "…..."

Bullshit!

Is Wald Pictures' funds really tight?

Indeed, after all, the two movies "Harry Potter" and "Spider-Man" require a lot of money. In addition, the filming of "Butterfly Effect" and "The God of Death is Coming", and the investment of tens of millions of dollars in "Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon" and so on.

Wald Pictures does lack liquidity, but it is absolutely impossible to say that it is really not money.

Not to mention anything else, Wald Pictures has given out $30 million at one time, which is nothing wrong.

However... the unanimous opinion of Zhuke, Kevin Feige and others is that the second part of "The Witch" will definitely not be filmed in the near future.

Now that the blame has been successfully passed, Wald Pictures has ensured its cleanliness.

Once the second part starts filming, it will inevitably hit Wald Pictures' credit and reputation.
To be continued...
