Chapter 268: Fan Disel Joins Morning Light!

Early this morning.

Douyin, Weibo, and a certain app...

and several other social platforms.

Basically, they were all flooded with British Duel.

Especially Douyin!

These bloggers crazily pushed it.

Some did it voluntarily, some...

Cough cough, they got paid!

Naturally, this was done by Morning Light's publicity department.

After all, the heat of our boss's new movie must be blown up!

The title of the video that ranked first on Douyin's hot list.

#Detailing the stars that appeared in the opening of British Duel#

As expected.

What was bound to come still came.

"Gao Qiqiang and Liu Huaqiang, strong-arm buying and selling!!!"

"I saw Bai Lu, baby, and Zhao Lusi!"

"When I watched the movie, I didn't even notice Da Mi Mi!"

"Look at 1:20, that person squatting on the ground... Holy shit, isn't that my brother Shan Zheng?"

"That shoeshine guy, I— I almost didn't recognize Director Ning Hao!"

"666, Xu Zheng played the vagrant, and Ning Hao played the shoeshine guy!"

"Look at those old guys playing chess—Feng Xiaogang, Zhang Yimou, and Ge You!"

"Whoa, the guy next to them watching the chess looks like Wu Jing!"

"......"

Netizens frenziedly researched the opening of British Duel nonstop.

Soon.

There were also specialized bloggers who slowed down the opening of British Duel frame by frame, then searched for details inside.

For example, hidden stars.

For example... how many stars appeared in that short few-minute shot.

Chen Ning is a movie blogger on Douyin.

With British Duel released and such huge hype, how could he possibly miss it?

Last night, after he finished watching the premiere,

he had a premonition.

The opening scene with celebrity cameos would definitely spark a net-wide discussion.

Morning Light's publicity department, right after the premiere ended, immediately released some footage for free.

Among them, naturally, were the opening shots of British Duel with the celebrities' cameos.

Mainly to make it convenient for these bloggers to edit and use.

So, Chen Ning went back, stayed up all night analyzing, and edited together a video.

It wasn't until six in the morning that he posted the compiled video on Douyin.

He got up at noon.

Chen Ning saw that his Douyin backend had 99+ unread messages.

Then he opened the video he'd posted that morning and instantly got excited!

As expected, it didn't disappoint his expectations.

The video went viral!

It hit Douyin's hot list, with over 500k views and over 40k comments.

"I knew it, I knew it!!!"

Chen Ning excitedly jumped up from bed.

Before this, he only had a few ten thousand followers.

Only a few hours have passed?

His followers increased by over 80k!!!

Such overwhelming fortune!

Thanks to British Duel, thanks to Director Lin, thanks...

Afterward, he opened the comments section.

"666, this blogger is awesome!"

"Wow, I love it, I love it—I like this meticulous blogger!"

"Dude's awesome—if you don't look closely, you wouldn't know this shot hides so many stars!"

"Awesome, awesome!"

"The value of this shot must be worth tens of millions, right?"

"Tens of millions? You're underestimating these stars—look, even Zhang Ziyi is just a cameo.."

"I'd call it the most valuable shot in Chinese film history!"

Actually.

Netizens overthought.

So many big stars cameo in his movie, and none took money.

Each one is eager to come.

But, you need to replace with someone else.

Wanting so many stars to appear together, maybe spending tens of millions may not get them.

This is the gold content of Mo's connections!

Here.

Lin Mo doesn't have time to care about the online miscellany.

He is persuading Fan Di Sai Er.

Already mentioned before.

In this world, Fan Di Sai Er is not yet famous, only having self-directed and self-acted a DV film.

So..

Cough cough, you know.

Such a big star, we must dig him over.

"Vin, I know you currently have no signed agency, so today I came to you, just want to talk about this topic!"

Lin Mo also didn't beat around the bush, directly just frankly wanting to sign him.

Fan Di Sai Er listened, then froze for a moment.

"Director Lin, I must admit, I hadn't really thought about this before; hearing you bring it up today, I'm really surprised..."

Yes, Fan Di Sai Er never even considered this.

Then Lin Mo smiled and said: "You've also seen my strength; what I told you before is all true. The next film is preparing to have you as the male lead; I can tell you in advance that the investment for my next film will not be lower than British Duel!"

"Moreover, I can guarantee that after you sign with my company, you'll get at least one blockbuster per year, and you will be the absolute male lead!!!"

Lin Mo has said this so many times he doesn't even know how many.

If Wu Jing and Shen Teng were present, they would surely show strong approval.

One blockbuster per year...

Absolute male lead...

Fan Di Sai Er is so excited right now he can't speak.

He took a sharp breath, his voice trembling with uncontrollable excitement: "Director Lin, you're giving me an unbelievable opportunity! I... I really don't know what to say. To be the male lead in your film, and also get a blockbuster each year, this is... this is practically a dream come true!"

"I am willing, oh, I am certainly willing to join your company; this is not just a job opportunity, for me it's an honor to fight side by side with a true film master!"

See that?

What is called being able to speak?

This is it!

Lin Mo hearing this also laughed: "Haha, good, good, Morning Light welcomes you!"

Just like that.

A rising international star formally joined Morning Light Group.

Fan Di Sai Er is very clear about Lin Mo's strength.

Especially in Huaguo, his influence is truly huge!

Moreover, Director Lin Mo is now advancing into the European and American film market.

He greatly anticipates that Director Lin's next film will have an investment even larger than British Duel..

Simply unimaginable.

British Duel's global release third day!

Including pre-sale box office.

Total is 4.7 billion USD!

In RMB that equals 3.429 billion.

Lin Mo's previous work 《Wolf Warrior》, if I remember correctly, should have broken 2 billion in three days.

However, 《Wolf Warrior》 was only the national box office.

After these three days of statistics.

In China, 《British Duel》's three-day box office is only 1.7 billion, still not as high as 《Wolf Warrior》.

But after thinking, it's still understandable.

After all, the craze of 《Wolf Warrior》 cannot be replicated.

With top-level endorsement, propaganda plus the main melody, positive energy, National Day holiday slot...

None can be missing.

But...

《British Duel》's overseas box office performance blew up!

"Holy shit, Director Lin, this film is super popular overseas!"

"Three-day box office 3.4 billion, holy shit!"

"Awesome!!!"

"666!"

"In Bangzi Country, 《British Duel》 is also very popular!"

"In Dao Guo, it's the same!"

"......"
