Chapter 287 Box Office and Word of Mouth (Part 2)

"This incident of stealing the box office was done by the former Liu Ben alone, and has nothing to do with our Wancheng Group. Our group has fired such a person who is harmful to Wancheng Group and the development of Huaxia Film. We also sincerely apologize for the inconvenience caused by Mr. Chen Ze, and our group will also make up for the box office that "The Dead" lost in the first two days."

Three days after Chen Ze sent this meager note, Wancheng Group suddenly issued such a public statement. In the statement, the former Liu Ben who caused this incident was fired, and he also promised to give Chen Ze a compensation.

As soon as this statement came out, it immediately surprised countless filmmakers and media people who were concerned about the outcome of this incident. They all knew that Wancheng Cinema's position in the film industry was simply unchallengeable.

Otherwise, after so many filmmakers suffer, there won't be no one who wants to expose it. They all thought that after Chen Ze singled out this incident, the end would be miserable.

At the very least, his movie "The Dead on Baker Street" and future movies are not expected to be shown in Wancheng Cinema. Unexpectedly, Chen Ze had nothing to do, but their Liu Ben dismissed get out of class instead.

The name Liu Ben is also hated by these filmmakers. The unspoken rule of stealing the box office has been carried forward in his hands, and it has become a cancer in the film industry until today.

Such a person, this group of filmmakers all hate him so much that their teeth itch. I can't wait for him to be dismissed by Wancheng Cinema sooner. But unexpectedly, not only was Liu Ben not dismissed, but his status had become more and more stable over the years.

Even so stable that they are completely desperate.

But at this moment, he was fired because of a case of box office theft.

"How is this possible? Who is Chen Ze?"

The filmmakers were both delighted and shocked. At first, they thought that Chen Ze was just a talented cartoonist. In the film industry, but a newcomer.

But looking at it now, it was actually possible to move to Liu Ben. His background is probably not that simple.

Regarding the statement issued by Wancheng Cinema this time, Chen Ze was no less surprised than these filmmakers.

"How is this going?"

Chen Ze murmured in his heart, not only this statement, Chen Ze even received a letter of apology privately sent by Wancheng Group. Said that the box office will be re-stated. Return Chen Ze's movie justice.

It's so strange,

Chen Ze originally thought that after breaking up with Wancheng Cinema this time, he would definitely not be able to cooperate with them in this movie and future movies.

Unexpectedly, the overlord of theaters of this level would admit his mistake on his own initiative. And I have to make up for the box office I lost in the past few days.

How could Wancheng Cinema be so reasonable? No way.

Of course, Chen Ze knows that this is impossible. Wancheng Cinema can grow as big as it is today, and no small tricks have been used in the past when starting a business. Although Chen Ze didn't know Wancheng well, he knew from the fact that no one in China's film industry had dared to expose the box office theft for more than ten years, this Wancheng Cinema was definitely not a reasonable person.

"Could it be that they want to maintain their brand image?"

Chen Ze thought of a reason, after this incident. The image of Wancheng Cinema in the minds of netizens has plummeted, and many netizens said they would never go to their theater to watch movies again.

From this point of view, Wancheng Cinema's statement may be to save its image in the hearts of netizens.

There was some truth to it, but Chen Ze felt that there should be other reasons. But there was another specific reason, Chen Ze couldn't think of it for a while.

Just when Chen Ze was a little entangled in Wancheng Cinema's statement, Wancheng Cinema successively recalculated the real box office of Chen Ze's theatrical version of "The Dead on Baker Street" two days ago.

On the fourth day, the box office reached 63 million. On the fifth day, it reached 58 million. In just five days, the box office of Chen Ze's "The Dead on Baker Street" reached more than 300 million.

The box office statistics of these two days, together with Wan Cheng's previous statement, immediately caused a wave of repercussions on the Internet.

"Let me just say, the quality of this theatrical version is so high, the current box office is considered normal."

"Shut up for Wancheng. In any case, it's good to correct your mistakes."

"I originally planned not to go to the Wancheng Cinema to watch movies, but since everything has been corrected, I can still consider going to your theater to watch movies in the future."

First of all, netizens are happy that Chen Ze's movie has won so many box office. Secondly, they all expressed their applause for this behavior of Wancheng Cinema, and said that they will continue to support Wancheng Cinema in the future.

Although netizens said they would no longer go to Wancheng to watch movies in the past two days, Wancheng is one of the largest theater chains in China and has a lot of theaters. Many netizens have long been used to watching movies in their theaters.

If you don't go to see them, it will be quite troublesome to change places. Now that Wancheng Cinema has issued such a statement, they will naturally go downhill.

From this point of view, if Wancheng wanted to save his brand image, his effect had indeed been achieved.

After so many incidents, the popularity of "The Undead on Baker Street" has greatly increased, and it has almost reached the point where everyone knows it.

Taking advantage of this wind, the total box office of Chen Ze's movie is also rising steadily, and sometimes the box office even rebounds in one day.

It broke 300 million on the 5th, 500 million on the 10th, and on the 19th day, the box office exceeded 800 million. Although it usually takes a month for a movie to be released, that is to say, there are still eleven days before Chen Ze's movie is released.

But just like that, with so many days left, Chen Ze's movie box office has already broken 800 million, such a figure that he had agreed to bet with Wang Xiao.

And it's not just the box office, the rating of Chen Ze's movie on the time website has already exceeded 8.5 points. A few days ago, due to the attack of some naval forces, Chen Ze's movie once dropped to about six points.

However, since Chen Ze sent out that meager note, there was a wave of support for Chen Ze on the Internet, and the ratings of Chen Ze's "The Undead on Baker Street" have been rising step by step.

Netizens have given a very high evaluation of this theatrical version.

Finally, the day before the box office of Chen Ze's movie broke 800 million, its rating on the time website had already exceeded 8.5 points.

The box office exceeded 800 million and the score exceeded 8.5 points. With the completion of these two records, everyone knew that Chen Ze had won the bet between Chen Ze and Wang Xiao.

What will Wang Xiao do? Will he fulfill the bet, or renege on his face? Everyone was very curious, and everyone turned their attention to Wang Xiao.

*****

"Damn it, I didn't expect Chen Ze to actually do these two things."

Sitting on the sofa in his home in a high-end community in BJ, Wang Xiao thought. His heart is now full of regret.

Originally, after he asked Liu Ben to steal the box office, Chen Ze's box office plummeted. In addition, Wang Xiao hired a navy to go to the time website to lower the rating of Chen Ze's movie.

After completing these two items, Wang Xiao thought that he was sure to win this time.

But I didn't expect things to turn around. Liu Ben, who helped him, was fired directly, and the score on the time website also exceeded 8.5 points.

"Who is this Chen Ze?"

Wang Xiao knows Liu Ben's energy. It is no exaggeration to say that he is a big boss in the Chinese film circle. It was such a person who was actually fired because of Chen Ze. I heard that the founder Xiong Pin fired him personally.

It is really unimaginable for Wang Xiao to be able to work for a character like Xiongpin.

Originally, he thought that Chen Ze was just an ordinary person, at most a well-known cartoonist. Now it seems that things are not so simple. Chen Ze's background seems to be quite deep.

Wang Xiao, who wanted to wear this layer, broke out in a cold sweat from behind, that he had offended such a person. He can even work for someone like Xiong Pin. If he really wanted to argue with a small film critic like himself, he might not even know how he died.

Therefore, Wang Xiao felt quite regretful in his heart now. He only scolded himself for not accepting money from Lotte Club Shi Jieren, and for not dealing with Chen Ze.

"I hope that Master Chen Ze will not remember my villainous mistakes."

With a feeling of uneasiness, Wang Xiao sent up the meager amount she received for fulfilling the bet after Chen Ze had reached both of the standards. (To be continued.
