Chapter 482 Mr. Xu, guess what, we made money again!
# Xu Xiyu’s first animated film "Robot Wall-E" is screened in China#
November 1st.
A piece of news appeared on major platforms.
After these days of regular publicity, plus "Xu Xiyu makes an animated movie" is just a gimmick.
Therefore, the discussion on "WALL-E" on the Internet at this time is not very popular.
Faced with this situation...
"I always think this movie is going to be a hit, really." Cheng Yunqing couldn't help but said to Hu Ningtian in a villa on the outskirts of Beijing.
"Probably not. Didn't Xiyu say that the market for animated movies is not big? In the past, the domestic movies of all ages with the best box office sales only cost 700 to 800 million yuan, which is barely enough to make up for the loss."
"Having said that, I still feel something is wrong. The main reason is that the quality of this movie is really high, and the story is simple but heartwarming. It has a low threshold for watching movies and has a certain depth at the same time."
"Hey, don't think too much. Trust Xiyu's judgment. He is professional in this regard." Hu Ningtian said, reaching out to hug Cheng Yunqing.
But his movement was dodged by Cheng Yunqing.
"If you can't hold it in any longer, I'll go find those lovers you kept. As I said before, I won't let you touch them before we get married." Cheng Yunqing rolled his eyes.
As soon as these words came out, Hu Ningtian was not angry, but rather helpless.
It's not that he can't hold it in, nor does he want to take advantage.
The main reason is that he feels that physical contact is conducive to deepening the relationship. This was the inspiration given to him last time when his sister hugged Xu Xiyu in the reading room and said, "It's so good to have you."
To be honest, he and Cheng Yunqing got along quite well, because Cheng Yunqing had a really good personality, and sometimes it could even be said that he was as carefree as a boy.
But precisely because of this, he always felt that the two of them were developing into brothers, without any ambiguity at all.
Look at the state of getting along with Xu Xiyu, her sister, acting coquettishly, blushing, and even acting a little rogue.
Looking back at myself...
no.
Another day, I'll ask that bastard Xu Xiyu how he should go further.
All his interactions with women over the years have been in nurturing relationships. In other words, people have always coaxed him, but he has never coaxed women.
People's behavioral inertia is very serious. Hu Ningtian would probably be much better off if he had only a few years of experience supporting others.
Thinking of this, he stretched out a little bored and said: "I heard from Xiyu that this time he didn't even ask for favors for the announcement."
"What's asking for favors?" Cheng Yunqing didn't understand for a moment.
"It's just to find other artists to help him promote. In the past, when new movies or TV series were released, he would find familiar artists to help him promote. This time, he didn't even find anyone from his own company."
"Is that so?" Cheng Yunqing nodded thoughtfully after hearing this.
Half an hour later...
"Then what's going on with these people?" Cheng Yunqing pointed at the screen of his mobile phone.
Hu Ningtian took a closer look after hearing this, and his attention instantly wandered: "This thief also lied to me and said that he didn't have a WALL-E figure. I saw one in his office last time, and he refused to give it to me if I asked him for it."
That's right, a video of Li Shanling taking a selfie with a "WALL-E" figure is playing on the screen of Cheng Yunqing's mobile phone.
I saw Li Shanling holding the WALL-E figure to her face and smiling: ""WALL-E" is really good to watch. It is a high-quality animated movie suitable for all ages. I hope everyone will support it!"< br>
Not only Li Shanling, but also Gu Lixiati, Li Qiyang and even more than 50 artists who participated in the "National Style Culture Festival" last time are all posting similar videos or photos to help promote it.
Moreover, without exception, they all got figures of "WALL-E" or "Eva".
Not to mention, if this was a live-action movie, it might not be able to get so many artists to help promote it. It’s not that there is not enough favor. But sometimes, the announcement of live-action movies will cause conflicts in cooperation, making it inconvenient to promote.
Animated movies don’t have this concern.
However, they had no worries, but Xu Xiyu was dumbfounded.
"Hell, what's going on? Who asked them to distribute it, and where did this figure come from?" Xu Xiyu really didn't understand.
Some time ago, he had been paying attention to the National Style Cultural Festival; later, he had been discussing with Hu Ningtian about "separating the family", an important matter related to future development.
In addition, he himself does not have much expectations for the box office success of "WALL-E".
Therefore, they did not interfere too much in publicity and left everything to the company's publicity department. With so many high-quality projects to practice on, their abilities have actually improved.
As a result, I never expected that they seemed to be too "high", and now they are doing this kind of job to "stab" themselves?
"Xinbao, Xinbao, come in." Xu Xiyu raised his head and shouted towards the door.
Soon, Shan Xinbao opened the door and came in, looking puzzled: "Mr. Xu, what's wrong?"
"Find the person in charge of the promotion team of "Wall-E" to come here. I have something to ask him." Xu Xiyu ordered.
"Okay." Five minutes later, in the office.
Looking at Zheng Yingle, the head of the publicity team of "WALL-E", standing in front of him, Xu Xiyu didn't know what to ask.
He was very impressed by this kid.
When Hua Qing changed jobs, his boss wanted to take him away, but he didn't leave. Because of this, his colleagues who changed jobs laughed at him, saying that he had no chance of success.
But later, he successively handled projects such as "Hurry Up", "The Beginning", and "The Richest Man in Xihong City", and his work performance was excellent, and he could be considered to be on his own.
Therefore, Qiao Shuangshuang gave him the responsibility for the promotion and distribution of "WALL-E".
Thinking of this, Xu Xiyu said: "I just saw that the artists within our company, as well as some artists who have a good relationship with us, are helping to promote "Wall-E". Is it you who is responsible for this?"
"Mr. Xu, this is what I should do!" Zheng Yingle quickly expressed his stance.
"..." Xu Xiyu.
"You don't need to praise me, it's not a big deal. If you want to take credit, the biggest credit belongs to you. They are giving you face, not me." Zheng Yingle spoke with a hint of honesty in his sincerity.
"..." But Xu Xiyu was completely speechless by these words.
However, not only could he not blame Zheng Yingle, he also had to smile and praise: "You have done a good job. The company needs talents with subjective initiative like you."
"Mr. Xu, you are so grateful!" Zheng Yingle said excitedly, "I will definitely continue to work hard."
"Um... cough... what, I asked you to come here. I want to ask if you have made any other arrangements for this publicity work?" Xu Xiyu said in as natural a tone as possible.
"Yes, this time we have a total of three major categories and sixteen sub-categories, and the promotion is divided into four stages. Mr. Xu, if you have time, I will give you a brief report." Zheng Yingle said with a little excitement.
When making plans before, Mr. Qiao was always reviewing them. Mr. Xu didn't read much at all because he was busy.
Now that you have the opportunity to perform, how can you not give your boss a good report on your work?
But Xu Xiyu's eyebrows almost stood up when Zheng Yingle said "three major categories, sixteen sub-categories, and four stages".
Good guy, are you making this fight too big?
So, he asked with some confusion: "Are there enough publicity funds? I remember that the publicity funds for this movie are not that much, right?"
"Mr. Xu, although the money is indeed not much, it doesn't matter. Your face is on display here!"
"???" Xu Xiyu almost showed a "black question mark" expression.
Fortunately, Zheng Yingle was only happy and didn't notice anything unusual. He said, "If you don't want to talk about anything else, let's just talk about it, because Mr. Ke took the initiative to open the planning project of the "National Style Culture Festival".
Those scenic spots and event organizers that have accepted the plan will jointly launch discounts on ticket purchases with us when the movie is released. Holding movie tickets can enjoy discounts on scenic spot tickets.
There are also Happy Valley and Wangxian Valley, which have been cooperating with us, and they expressed their support immediately. Especially Happy Valley, they are just waiting for our IP to become popular so that they can hold theme activities. ”
"Discount for purchasing tickets?" Xu Xiyu was really shocked now. Damn it, where did this genius come from? Can such cooperation be negotiated?
"Also, the brands we have cooperated with before are planning to co-brand with us. Especially the Yunjing sweeping robot, they are particularly interested in the cleaning robot WALLI.
After all, it is an animated image, so there is a lot of room for development. This matter is discussed by our business side, but in the final analysis, it is your reputation that everyone believes in the quality of this movie.
In order to make them feel more at ease, I organized a preview screening last time and specially invited representatives from various brands to come and watch it. They all praised the movie full of praise. ”
"Is there a joint name?" Xu Xiyu no longer knew what to say.
"Yes, Mr. Xu, that is to say, we have already started making money before it is officially released?" Zheng Yingle's chest puffed up when he talked about this, "Mr. Xu, in the final analysis, this is all because of your good reputation. Ah!”
"..." Xu Xiyu opened his mouth again and again at these words, and finally he could only say, "Thank you for your hard work."
"It should!"
"Okay, I'm just asking. You can give Xinbao a copy of the plan later. I'll take a look at it later. You can go ahead and get busy."
"Hey, okay." Zheng Yingle responded quickly.
After he left, Xu Xiyu looked at the closed door and recalled what Zheng Yingle had just said. It was really hard for him to say: "Zheng Yingle, you got this name well, you really won!"< br>
Here, he had just finished sighing.
On the other side, Zheng Yingle, who returned to the work group, suddenly also exclaimed: "Holy shit, it's Mr. Xu as expected. Even Luo Shu is helping with publicity?! Xiao Wu, please contact me and send a set of figures to Teacher Luo Past.”
That's right, the bastards from the Anti-Egg Alliance are on the move.
Xu Xiyu, on the other hand, had just opened the promotional plan sent by Zheng Yingle and did not know about it.
Note: Zheng Yingle appears for the first time (Chapter 248).
