Dimen Pictures, a conference about "Small Town Zombies" is going on.

Company president Bob Weinstein is talking: "The distribution department did a good job this time and signed a movie with great potential."

Rohrer said modestly: "The main reason is that the film itself is very characteristic. I'm just lucky."

"At present, the box office of this movie is $5.67 million on the first day, and I heard that many viewers are quite satisfied with this movie."

The head of the market research department replied: "We hired a survey company last night, and we also went to various theaters to do sample surveys. The result of the statistics is an average score of 7.2 points, which is a score of more than 1,000 people."

"Okay, Rohrer, you go to communicate more with the theaters, strive for more theaters, more film arrangements, and increase efforts in publicity. I will approve a sum of 1.5 million US dollars.
