Chapter 487

Beijing Huanyu Company.

In Lin Yu’s office, the executives of the two companies were still arguing endlessly about the clash of release dates.

Everyone hoped Lin Yu could change the slot.

Not to go head-to-head with these domestic and international films.

"Stop."

"Don't argue anymore."

"I have decided: 'Birth of the Demon Child' will be released as scheduled, and we will absolutely not withdraw."

"Whoever says another word of nonsense, pack your bags and leave."

Lin Yu pressed his brows and said in a deep, dissatisfied voice.

This noisy clamor was giving him a headache.

Then, he angrily pressed the cigarette butt into the ashtray.

Lin Yu’s shout...

...truly startled the dozen or so people in the office; they had never seen Lin Yu lose his temper like this.

Da Peng and Xiao Jie looked at each other.

He moved his lips twice, finally sighed, and the marketing department staff shook their heads helplessly.

Too stubborn!

President Lin is truly incorrigible!

Although Lin Yu is the boss of these two studios, he is after all a young man in his early 20s, full of vigor, and simply won't listen to others' advice.

Are you kidding?

How can an animation compare to a disaster film?

How can it compare to a patriotic mainstream film?

How can it compete for the market with the Avengers meticulously crafted by Marvel?

If you don't pull it from the schedule, there’s only a dead end.

And the marketing department supervisor, including the department staff, sneered at Lin Yu’s arbitrary behavior.

Too amateur!

As an artist, it’s undeniable that Lin Yu is a talented genius who excels in acting, variety shows, music, and every other aspect.

But he doesn't understand the market at all.

He doesn't understand what a cinema chain is.

He doesn't understand the current target audience in the environment.

But Lin Yu spoke so decisively.

No one dared to raise any objections.

However, the old employees of Huanyu Company still secretly told Boss Yang about the situation.

These old employees had worked at Jiaxing Media before and knew that Boss Yang and Lin Yu had a close relationship. They didn't have a say, but Lin Yu wouldn't ignore Boss Yang’s words, right?

Xiao Jie from the Rainbow Animation Studio agreed with both hands; he knew the inside story.

He knew that Boss Yang had quite a few shares in this animation.

Others might not understand the Chinese film market.

Boss Yang, who had been in the industry for many years, could definitely weigh the pros and cons, make Lin Yu pull back from the brink, and prevent Huanyu Company from suffering an unprovoked disaster.

"Ring ring."

Lin Yu stood in front of the office window.

He opened the window to breathe the fresh night air. Seeing the caller ID was Da Da Mi Mi,

Lin Yu didn't feel any surprise.

"Let’s go out and talk!"

This sentence from Lin Yu, taking the initiative,

actually caught Yang Mi on the other end of the phone off guard.

She had already prepared a belly full of persuasive words, but they were blocked at this moment.

"Okay."

Yang Mi didn't say anything else.

She drove her Porsche straight to Houhai.

Both of them tacitly waited for each other at the small skewer shop opposite the bar from last time.

Lin Yu had just finished ordering skewers when Yang Mi arrived carrying red wine.

They drank and chatted until dawn.

The two kept chatting.

But they didn't mention a word about pulling the film from the schedule.

"The moon tonight is so round!"

"Yeah! The last time I looked up at the moon, it was when I was with you."

"You’ve lost weight again during this time."

"Period dramas, if you don't lose weight, you don't look good on camera."

"I won't pull it from the schedule."

"Hmm, I believe in you."

Lin Yu and Da Da Mi Mi leaned on the railing by the lake, chatting casually.

"I thought I was going to argue with you,

but now it seems there’s no need."

Yang Mi looked down at the moonlight on the lake and said truthfully.

Before coming,

Yang Mi had looked carefully.

At the films scheduled for release next month.

Among these dozen films, the most inconspicuous one was 'Ne Zha'.

No lead actors with box office appeal,

no well-known voice actors.

Even the production company was a nominal makeshift team.

Let alone comparing it to overseas films, it probably couldn't even beat these domestic films.

However, just now, seeing Lin Yu’s confident and composed state.

Yang Mi suddenly woke up.

From being a substitute member on 'Keep Running' to where he is now, every step Lin Yu took was full of miracles.

Isn't this exactly what I like about Lin Yu!

If I had tried to persuade Lin Yu to pull the film today,

it would have gone against my own wishes and heart.

"I just received a message from Brother Jing."

Lin Yu handed his phone to Da Da Mi Mi.

[Yu-zi, I know you have a film coming out. But the summer competition is too big, and the overseas promotion will be very strong this year. We pulled 'The Climbers' from the schedule. If you can't handle it, you should avoid the edge too!]

Seeing the message from Wu Jing on the phone.

Yang Mi’s brows furrowed.

"'The Climbers' is said to have a very grand cast, not only Wu Jing and Zhang Yi, but also the addition of Best Actress Zhang Zhang Ziyi. Is even this kind of film having to retreat?"

"And looking at Wu Jing’s inside information, it’s estimated that X-Men and Avengers will increase their promotional efforts. Maybe the leads will even drop into the premiere. The scene will be unimaginable."

"What do you think, Lin Yu?"

Yang Mi pursed her lips, feeling complicated.

"If that’s the case,"

"then I have to increase the bet!"

"Sister Mi, is your funding still sufficient?"

"I want to put more effort into the promotion."

Lin Yu smiled and said firmly.

???

"Ah!?"

After hearing Lin Yu’s words,

Yang Mi’s beautiful eyes darted, full of confusion.

Not only not pulling it from the schedule, but increasing the promotion!

Is there something wrong with this kid’s mentality?

"Sigh!"

"It’s a pity they have international stars standing for them. If I could invite Li Jing from Chentangguan and the Third Prince Ne Zha to help, that would be great."

"Then Captain America, Iron Man, Hulk, and Black Widow would all have to step aside for me."

Yang Mi: I asked you to consider pulling the film, and you’re thinking of inviting gods?

It’s clear that this kid’s mentality is absolutely fine, but his mental state is hard to say.
