Chapter 2204 - 2204 Twins

2204 Twins

If the movie theaters gave 70% of the screenings to Tian Guang and left the remaining 30% to a dozen other movies, it was good enough if White Fox even got 3% of the screenings.

Even if someone really wanted to watch the movie, they might not be able to buy tickets. In this case, how could the movie achieve good results?

It could be said that White Fox was doomed to fail.

Tian Guang was very satisfied and said, Your judgment is really admirable. Come, lets drink again.

For a moment, the room was filled with the smell of alcohol.

Tian Guang gave his a.s.sistant a look, and the a.s.sistant immediately stood up. He opened the door and called in more than ten young and beautiful beauties. Some of them were familiar faces from TV shows and movies. Although they were not famous, they were still actresses.

As soon as they entered, the entire private room was reinvigorated. The beauties walked toward the managers one by one and poured them wine. Tonight, all of you must enjoy yourselves to the fullest.

Manager Zhao reached out to take the gla.s.s and held the womans hand. Not only did the beauty not retreat, but she also said softly, Manager Zhao, let me give you a toast myself.

With that, she brought the gla.s.s to his mouth and let him drink it.

The others followed suit. For a moment, the entire private room was filled with unbearable sounds.

Tian Guang looked at the scene in front of him and knew that his movie would be a success.

When Director Cao received the news of the movie theaters schedule, he immediately panicked.

Are you sure? Did they give all the screenings to Tian Guang?

The a.s.sistant said, Im sure. The screening information for Tian Guangs movie has already been released. Itll get more than 70% of the screenings.

In the past, even the most popular directors and artistes would only be able to get 40% of the screenings at most. The box office sales would only increase to 50%. This time, they actually gave Tian Guang so much.

Thats right, Director Cao. In that case, there wont be many screenings left for us. Not many people will watch the midnight or workday screenings.

Director Cao held the information and fell into deep thought.

What did the investors say? Director Cao asked.

Our investors cant compare to Tian Guangs investors. Although were thinking of a way now, we havent made any progress.

Director Cao put down the information and said, Thats true. Tian Guangs works have had a good reputation and box office results in the past few years. The investors he found are definitely not bad.

The a.s.sistant said in a low voice, Director Cao, I heard that the reason why Tian Guang did this is not mainly because hes targeting us but Qiao Weiyang. Why dont we get Qiao Weiyang to look for Tian Guang and apologize

No! Director Tian immediately objected. You want Qiao Weiyang to sacrifice herself for the sake of our movies box office results? Whats going on in your head? Besides, youve seen what happened before. What does it have to do with Weiyang? Do you really think that after she apologizes, Tian Guang will show us mercy?

The a.s.sistant knew that he was wrong. He lowered his head and said nothing.

This news quickly reached Qiao Jierou.

At the Qiao familys house.

Old Madam Qiao drank her tea and asked, Is there no other way?

Theres no other way. It seems that Director Tian is really too disappointed in Sister, which is why hes like this. Ive already told Sister not to offend such a big shot, but she just didnt listen. After the endors.e.m.e.nt, she stood up for Cheng Yijia and offended Director Tian.

Old Madam Qiao was also frustrated. Weiyang has been too stubborn since she was young. She always causes trouble.

Huang Shumin couldnt help but say, Its fine if the only person her decision affects is herself, but White Fox is everyones hard work. Its indeed too much for everyone to be dragged down because of her.

She didnt say the rest of her words. With such a big production this time and Qiao Jierou playing one of the two female leads, Qiao Jierou originally had a chance to consolidate her popularity and even advance further. In the end, she had to stop here because she was involved in Qiao Weiyangs feud. How could this be taken lying down?

Qiao Jierou felt really uncomfortable. She lowered her head and did not say anything else.

How could Huang Shumin bear to see her daughter suffer like this? She said, Mom, you have to stand up for Jierou. Its not easy to film a movie. Its the blood, sweat, and tears of so many people. If n.o.body watches it, itll really hurt all the staff who have contributed.

We definitely cant let this matter go just like that. Theres still more than a month before the movie is released. Everyone, lets think of a way together, Old Madam Qiao said.

What other way can there be? Huang Shumin asked.

Old Madam Qiao was also deep in thought. Huang Shumin probed, Should we get the production team to delete all of Weiyangs scenes?

Qiao Jierou shook her head and said, Its unrealistic. Many of her scenes are with me. Her character is also important to the main plot. If theyre deleted, the movie will be incomplete.

If they could delete Qiao Weiyangs scenes, Qiao Jierou wouldnt have dragged it out until now.

Theres only one way, then. Contact Director Tian and lets have a meal together. Get Weiyang to come over and apologize to him. Old Madam Qiao finally came up with a plan.

Huang Shumin immediately agreed. Thats a good idea! Mom, youre indeed knowledgeable.

Old Madam Qiao was pleased by her words, and the mean smile on her face widened.

Qiao Jierou pursed her lips. This idea is good. Only Grandma could think of such a good idea. But the problem is that Sister has never gotten along with us. Im just afraid she wont lower her head.

She wont lower her head? Old Madam Qiao said angrily. No matter how she threw a tantrum in the past, it didnt hurt her interests! This time, if she doesnt lower her head, even shell be left in tears at the consequences! Wont she consider the severity of the matter?

Qiao Jierou quickly said, Grandma, youre so considerate. Ill get someone to contact Director Tian and ask Director Cao to come over as a witness. Sister will definitely come.

Qiao Weiyang quickly received the news of the movie theater screenings.

As one of the current top screenwriters, she had always been up to date with the developments in the industry.

Lu Mingjue sat opposite her and twirled his pen. He said, Sister-in-law, youre really taking the brunt end of things this time. Even without you making a move, Tian Guang is so ambitious that he wants to take away all the screenings and box office sales. He even said that this grudge is because you had offended him and his daughter. This way, the people in the industry wont think that hes greedy. Instead, theyll think that hes targeting you because hes protecting his daughter and work.
