Chapter 712

In the Qingbei forum, everyone was discussing Seeing Jin Li and Gu Cheng everywhere.

【First time discovering that appearance and strength can coexist.】

【How can they have so much energy? I heard from their roommate that they are still studying at night.】

【Could there be special learning methods?】

【Impossible, university knowledge is several times more profound than high school. If you rely entirely on rote memorization, you cannot understand it.】

【Is it that people who look good have better brains, and people who look stupid have bad brains?】

【During the summer vacation, I worked in a star's studio and found that the star's schedule is really busy.】

【I guess they developed a unique concentration system in their busy schedule, so they can handle complex work in a multi-threaded and fragmented way, which corresponds to high efficiency in learning.】

【So, if we also experience the life of a star, can it be fed back to learning?】

【Saying this, you think too highly of yourself. You think you can be a star just because you want to be?】

The discussion in the forum was heated, and the discussion in real life was also heated.

Not only was the discussion in the school heated, but the discussion on the Internet was also heated.

The most eye-catching one is the movie *Counterattack* starring Seeing Jin Li this year!

The box office gap between it and the 10th place in mainland film history is only 500 million left!

And now it is just after school started, and *Counterattack* has been extended until after the National Day holiday, which means *Counterattack* has plenty of time to break the box office record.

The 10th place in mainland film history can already be celebrated in advance.

Therefore, the outside media's box office expectations for *Counterattack* have been changed again and again.

Originally, everyone just thought it could rush into the top 10 of the mainland film history box office ranking, but now *Counterattack* can already start looking forward to 9th place.

Because the gap between 9th and 10th place is not big, there is only a gap of 200 million.

Everyone thinks that before the end of September, *Counterattack* will be able to reach 10th place, and it still has a complete National Day holiday to rush, perhaps it can rush over 200 million.

Then *Counterattack* will become the new 9th place in the mainland film history box office ranking!

This result is higher than everyone guessed, exceeding everyone's expectations.

The investors who produced this youth-themed movie have laughed crazy and earned crazy.

At the same time, the youth movie theme was also brought to fire by *Counterattack*.

Since the summer vacation, the number of youth film projects has obviously increased, and everyone is optimistic about this huge market.

In addition, *Counterattack* is not only exerting force at the domestic box office, but also continuing to try to open up channels abroad.

Hong Kong is an international city, and achieving excellent results in Hong Kong is easy to attract attention from other places.

And *Counterattack* was released in dozens of countries in Southeast Asia at the same time, and many nearby countries felt the trend of *Counterattack* and sent people to talk about the introduction.

As far as Seeing Jin Li knows, Director Xu is already talking about the introduction with more than a dozen countries.

And Sister Fang reports to her every day that there are countries contacting Director Xu, and the conditions offered are quite good, and Director Xu has signed the introduction agreement.

So the data used in domestic reports are actually wrong, or it can be said that they calculate the data according to the lowest growth rate.

Because they did not count the fermentation of the overseas box office.

The mainland is a huge market, but overseas is also.

As long as there are enough countries introduced, the box office will accumulate, and it will also be a huge help.

Sui Lingfang said on the phone: "Director Xu's signing action is very fast. For this reason, in some countries that are difficult to negotiate, they have also made concessions in terms of interests."

"Director Xu's move is to make *Counterattack* famous, and also to gild himself, hoping to open up international fame through the film market."

"At the same time, this is only good for you and not bad. Now the reports used by the media on the Internet are all the lowest growth data, without counting the overseas growth."

"According to our internal estimates, maybe we don't need to wait for the National Day holiday in October to exert force again. *Counterattack* may already be able to take the 9th place in the mainland film history box office in September, refreshing the record!"

Seeing Jin Li's eyes were full of surprise.

"Is it so fast? The speed is much faster than I thought, just like taking a rocket."

Sui Lingfang sighed: "You haven't seen how enthusiastic people from other countries are to come to talk about copyright introduction, because *Counterattack* is not a mainstream work."

"Of course, I don't agree with this point. I think *Counterattack* has positive energy and is very mainstream, but in the eyes of other countries, this is not our country's mainstream movie, but an inspirational film about youth. This subject matter is actually very easy to introduce."

Seeing Jin Li thought for a while: "But I remember that youth films don't seem to be introduced much abroad."

Just because the country lacks this part of the channel, she has to borrow Yi Yi Media's introduction channel and use performing a self-made drama they filmed as an exchange.

Sui Lingfang smiled: "Yes, other countries didn't introduce this kind of film much before because they felt there was no market."

"Introduction also requires paying a copyright fee. Films without a market will only make them lose money."

"But *Counterattack* is popular in many countries, either the first on the list or the top three on the list, which makes them see the potential of this film to cross borders and languages, so they all come to talk about introduction."

"As long as the action is fast enough, those countries can introduce it before October, and the box office can grow a little bit."

Speaking of this, Sister Fang also thought of something and said: "That's why I said that domestic media have not considered many aspects. *Counterattack* has won many overseas introduction and release copyrights. Even if it is off the screen in the country, it can still be released in other countries."

"It absorbs the global box office. If the box office doesn't rush up after it is off the screen in the mainland, but with the continuous gathering of overseas box office, the overall data can definitely rush up."

Seeing Jin Li joked: "I don't know which department customized the top ten list of mainland film history box office, or whether this is not an official list, but a list of data statistics spontaneously by the people."

"I guess some people who don't want *Counterattack* to be on the list will probably deliberately distinguish between domestic and foreign box office and make two lists."

Sui Lingfang smiled: "If they really do this, then I don't have to worry."

"Now the data statistics of the whole network, the top ten list of film history box office all include overseas box office data."

"After all, those who can get our top ten film history box office have the value of introduction, and overseas copyrights are not worried about selling, and there are other countries buying."

"If you really want to calculate domestic and foreign separately, then *Counterattack* can rush in by relying on the mainland box office, but the ranking is not at the front."

"But for the box office ranking at the front, it may be a huge impact. I remember that among the top five box office, three movies have huge overseas markets, and they all calculate overseas data to determine the ranking."

Seeing Jin Li said: "It's good that you have a response plan."

Sui Lingfang's words turned, "It's just that as overseas copyrights are constantly signed, you also urgently need to go overseas for publicity."

"Many famous overseas magazines have sent invitations to Chenxi Entertainment and the crew, hoping that you can go to film."

Seeing Jin Li pondered for a while and said: "Then move the domestic announcements again, and prioritize the overseas announcements first."

"We must consolidate overseas popularity, strive to call on more people to enter the cinema to watch, and try to improve the box office further. For any movie, publicity is necessary."

Sui Lingfang said happily: "Yes, that's my idea too, I was just about to mention it to you."

"It's just that you will be a bit more tired this way. You have to take a plane to fly everywhere every weekend. I am worried that your body will not be able to adapt, and the itinerary you participate in is relatively short."

"Some countries are far away, and just taking a plane takes five or six hours, or even eight hours."

"The time you participate in activities may not be as long as the time you take a plane."

"I am thinking, why don't you ask for one more day off? It's not asking you for a long vacation, just three consecutive days off on Saturday, Sunday, and Monday. Ask for leave on Monday to give you more time for itinerary arrangements, how about it?"

Special times require special treatment. Seeing Jin Li only thought for a few seconds before agreeing.

She is not a stubborn person who must give up her career struggle for her studies.

*Counterattack* is now in the anxious stage of rushing the list, and rushing a little more box office is a little more.

After all, she doesn't have the potential to break the film history box office for every movie, and she is not sure how the movies she films in the future will perform.

Now, *Counterattack* is the most weighty chip in her hand, and its performance is even more powerful than *Dawn*, which is more suitable for international promotion.

To be a big hit, it not only requires a good script, good actors, and good publicity, but also a bit of luck.

Obviously, *Counterattack* was blessed with this luck.

It is very likely that this movie is the most brilliant movie in her acting career, and she naturally wants the brilliance of the movie to be even more powerful.

"If there are many publicity announcements, I don't mind taking a small long vacation, or asking for a few more days off every week."

"The most important thing now is to show the momentum of *Counterattack* rushing the box office. Once a wave is formed, this momentum will continue to grow like a snowball, and it will be difficult to stop."

Sui Lingfang said: "Then let's prepare from this weekend. Director Xu has urged me many times, hoping to take you to participate in publicity activities overseas."

"It's just that there are too many publicity invitations on his side, and he hasn't screened out high-quality announcements, so I suppressed it and didn't tell you, so as not to distract you from your studies."

"He only screened the announcements yesterday and handed the list to me, so I told you."

Seeing Jin Li was about to say okay, when a flash of inspiration suddenly appeared in her mind, saying:

"Send me a copy of the announcement list, I want to confirm it again."

Sui Lingfang was stunned: "Confirm it again?"

Seeing Jin Li said meaningfully: "Just treat it as me being a little uneasy, helping to calculate this announcement list in advance to see which announcements can be participated in and which cannot."

"Coming overseas to participate in publicity activities, we are unfamiliar with the place and the language is not clear, so we must also pay attention to our own safety."

"And many times, it is not that the local environment is a problem, but that the announcement itself has a problem, especially the problem of thought. I think this needs to be focused on."

Sui Lingfang opened her mouth wide: "This... why didn't I think of this!"

It is indeed difficult to think of.

After all, who would have thought that flying for more than five hours, crossing thousands of mountains and rivers, and participating in announcements in a place where the language is not clear and the environment is strange, you have to do a political review in advance?

Whether the announcement organizer has published sensitive remarks before, and whether the stance is problematic, in the era of increasingly network information and openness, it needs to be valued.

Seeing Jin Li is not worried about the director and herself.

But she is worried about other actors.

What if other actors answer sensitive questions under the guidance of the organizer during the announcement, and then netizens feel that her thinking is wrong and attack her.

Then, *Counterattack* will definitely be implicated and cool down.

It doesn't matter if *Counterattack* cools down after a year or two, but at least in the critical stage of rushing the list this year, it must not cool down.

Sui Lingfang said by analogy: "Looking at it this way, not only do we need to screen the quality of the announcements, but we also need to screen the accompanying personnel, especially the matter of hiring translators."

"I think hiring local translators is unreliable. Translators may also collude with the host to fool us. It is better to hire a translator from our country to take with us."

Seeing Jin Li thought for a while: "Then keep the original video well, and every word the translator says must have a clear sound source. If something happens in the future, it is a problem caused by the translator, we have the right to pursue it."

Sui Lingfang: "Okay!"

After hanging up the phone, Seeing Jin Li didn't play with her mobile phone anymore, but continued to read.

She originally wanted to ask Gu Cheng if he wanted to participate in overseas publicity announcements together, but just after picking up the phone, she felt it was unnecessary to ask.

Gu Cheng's role in this drama is not heavy, but he is the absolute male lead.

His popularity overseas is definitely higher than other supporting roles.

If Guang Ge wants to develop Gu Cheng's international influence, he will definitely let him participate.

But if some domestic announcement itineraries are more important, Gu Cheng doesn't have to go.

Only she, the female lead with the most scenes, must go, so that the overseas publicity of *Counterattack* can be launched.

At the same time.

Inside Yi Yi Media, there was also a violent vibration.

Mr. Yang first fired the batch of screenwriters who were muddling through and living on salaries.

Then he issued a recruitment order to the outside world, sincerely recruiting fresh graduates and new screenwriters to intern at the company and write scripts.

In addition, he thoroughly investigated the company's previous script problems and discovered a very shocking fact.

That is, among the TV dramas produced by the company in recent years, only two of the scripts used were produced by screenwriters hired by the company.

More than 10 other scripts used were filmed using those scripts bought from new screenwriters.

After Mr. Yang discovered this, he felt very ridiculous.

No wonder netizens on the Internet were scolding them, saying they were professional households of rotten dramas and the source of rotten films.

They all used the scripts of new screenwriters, can they not be rotten?

But what is even more ridiculous is that the scripts produced by those professional screenwriters were actually not as good as the works of new screenwriters in internal evaluation.

When thoroughly investigating the company, Mr. Yang also told other senior executives the opinions of Chenxi Entertainment.

"Seeing Jin Li still likes *Invisible Secret* very much, and she hopes to let the new screenwriter who created this drama take charge of the modification."
