Cui Zhihao seemed to have thought of something as he revealed a suspicious expression. "But, Director Zheng, there's something I don't quite understand. Wasn't your film supposed to be released next month? Why did it suddenly move forward to this month? "
"Hehe, I wonder if Manager Cui knows that Shen Mian has a new film coming out recently?" Zheng Kangde asked meaningfully.
Cui Zhihao thought for a moment. "Of course, the great Director Shen knows about it. I was surprised before that Director Shen actually released a new film without any news at all. I paid special attention to it and found out that all the actors this time are newcomers!"
Zheng Kangde chuckled. "Director Shen's film is very coincidental. The theme is also a youth comedy, and it's also a woman dressed as a man. I'm really afraid of Director Shen's reputation!"
The audience had preconceived notions. When two films with the same theme were released, they would generally prefer to see which one they would watch first.
Although Zheng Kangde said that, in reality, his tone was full of mockery and disdain.
Cui Zhihao immediately understood what Zheng Kangde meant. All these years, Zheng Kangde had always been suppressed by Shen Mian. It seemed like he was planning to use this opportunity to suppress Shen Mian in one fell swoop!
Even if he wanted to release the film before Shen Mian due to preconceived notions, he could have waited a little longer because the same theme would cause competition among the audience.
However, Zheng Kangde purposely released the film two days later than Shen Mian's and released it almost at the same time. It was obvious that he was planning to steal all the market share of Shen Mian's film and directly suppress it to death!
Shen Mian's film did not have a big shot or a backer. How could it compete with Zheng Kangde?
It was almost a dead end …
Cui Zhihao shook his head and said, "Hehe, Shen Mian is indeed amazing, but it's also a fact that the box office has been going downhill these years. It's almost impossible for it to regain its former glory! Now, he's willfully produced such a low-budget film. Does he think he's still the Shen Mian from ten years ago? Is the film market still the same as it was ten years ago? It's not that I want to say this, but Director Shen really made a mistake this time. His long-accumulated reputation might be destroyed because of this film … "
Zheng Kangde poured a glass of wine for Cui Zhihao and asked casually, "How does Manager Cui plan to arrange Director Shen's schedule?"
Cui Zhihao gave him a knowing look. "Of course, we'll do what we need to do. Our cinema isn't a charity, we're all here to make money. Even with Shen Mian's reputation, this movie obviously can't hold up at the box office. At most, we'll get a 10% screening rate …"
…
After the negotiation, both parties continued to drink and chat. Finally, both of them left in satisfaction.
Liang Biqin said excitedly, "Director Zheng, you're amazing! With such a high screening rate, our box office definitely won't be bad! "
When the trailer first came out, because of the actor's popularity, there were a lot of little pink fans who praised and expressed their anticipation. However, there were also quite a few who scolded them for being clichéd and brainless. At first, she was a little worried …
"Hehe, of course! Don't overestimate the taste of the audience these days. The people who come to the cinema to spend money are getting younger and younger. They only know what's good and what's bad, and they're just here to watch the show. They'll watch whatever you arrange for them! "Zheng Kangde said confidently.
Liang Biqin nodded in agreement with Director Zheng's words.
Of course, what made her feel better was that Shen Mian was doomed this time!
