Chapter 459 Success Is the Mother of Failure

"The Black Robe Inspection Team 2" is out, everyone go check it out!"

"..."

The person who said this was not the publicity hired by the group, nor was it the work of Chengyu Media, but Luo Ruying.

She was actually helping the group promote the new movie on her own initiative.

The audience around the holographic projector burst into laughter.

"Okay, okay, buy tickets!"

"Buy! You must buy! Mom will buy you whatever you want!"

"No, what's wrong with you, Kuiguang Group? You actually let Luo Ruying come out to sell tickets. I'm going to turn from a fan to a hater! You can't bully children, let me sell them, I can!"

"..."

In a teahouse not far away, Yang Ruoqian sat in his own private room, looking down at this grand occasion through the window.

There were not many people in the room, only Yang Ruoqian, Chang Zhiqing, a middle-level manager of the operations department, and Shao Yiqi, who had recently contacted the zoologist and was almost mentally exploded.

The room they were assigned had independent projection equipment and was in a very good location in the shopping center.

You can eat by looking down, and watch the "Black Robe Inspection Team 2" being broadcast by looking up. You can also see the group's surrounding industries by turning your head.

It can be said that this room is also the most luxurious among the exclusive private rooms.

"Not bad, it looks very popular." Shao Yiqi commented casually, "It seems that the domestic box office is stable this time."

Yes, the current box office of "Black Robe Inspection Team 2" has not surprised Mr. Yang at all.

It would be strange if such a luxurious team could go wrong.

The biggest variable now is how the overseas market performs.

While watching the movie and eating, several people can judge that the performance of this movie in terms of quality and plot is still at the top level, and there is no decline compared to the first part.

The first part of "Black Robe Inspection Team" ends with the protagonist group successfully completing revenge and eliminating the evil star superhero. But everyone knows that the evil behind all this is related to the motherland hero and the company behind it, and the protagonist group is also wanted because of this, and can only live a day.

The second part continues the story from the first part.

The Homeland Warrior still looks like a savior in front of outsiders, but behind the scenes he behaves like a nouveau riche who got a windfall, wantonly swaying the darkness in his heart.

But this time, the plot of the movie interweaves the plot of the origin of the Homeland Warrior's identity, and also begins to slowly reveal the worldview.

Because the protagonists of the first film caused three of the seven superheroes to die mysteriously or be disgraced, the seven-man team was seriously short of members.

So a staff member of the company called in a young man who was blind but had excellent hearing and could manipulate the javelin like his own hands according to the process.

Then, when the Homeland Warrior visited this new teammate, he smiled and encouraged him, and at the same time, when no one expected it, his face suddenly became gloomy, and he stretched out his hands at lightning speed and slapped his new teammate's ears like slapping a fly.

A second ago, the hero of the motherland was smiling and praising his new teammate with approval: "And you, my friend, you are the real hero."

The next second, he looked fierce and terrified at his new teammate who was covering his ears and screaming on the ground with an extremely terrifying look. His tone was so calm that it was scary, but it was accompanied by a chilling ridicule: "Now~ you are just a useless blind man?"

After saying that, the hero of the motherland stepped on the blood flowing on the ground and began to threaten the employee who followed the procedures, bringing the whole movie to a new climax.

"..."

And there are many scenes in this movie with such a huge contrast and extremely strong emotional changes, which are enough to be recorded in famous scenes.

Even before the movie was released, people who had watched the movie were already discussing this plot online.

Yang Ruoqian took a look at the content of the movie and couldn't help sighing in his heart.

There is no room for accidents.

The movie is really well made, and the performance of each actor is as stable as the first one.

Shao Yiqi was eating and watching a movie at the same time, and asked casually: "By the way, where is Shang Qianyu? Wouldn't she definitely come here to eat at this time normally? Why didn't I see her today?"

In the past, Shang Qianyu would find some excuses to eat and drink when she had nothing to do; when she was walking around the company, she would finish a lot of snacks in the rest area.

The movie was released today, and the domestic box office performance was quite good. With her personality, she would have shamelessly followed here to eat and drink.

Could it be that this child has become calmer after not seeing her for a few days?

Yang Ruoqian knew that someone would be curious about this matter, and said: "I sent her and other actors in the crew out, taking advantage of the popularity of the movie, at least to make her familiar in the overseas market first."

In other words, President Yang has been cheated by Xiao Shang so many times, and this time he finally found the opportunity to exile her abroad, how could he not seize it?

If Shang Qianyu had eaten here, she would definitely be taking credit and being complacent, which would bring a lot of psychological shadow to President Yang.

"Okay... By the way, how is the overseas market doing?"

Yang Ruoqian retracted his gaze and took out his mobile phone: "Just ask, Xiao Shang should have first-hand information."

In fact, the secretary who is still processing documents in the company should also have box office information in some regions, but she needs to make a summary, so she has not reported it yet.

"Xiao Shang, come out quickly."

After arriving at the destination, Shang Qianyu still found a gap to eat and drink a lot, and took a special photo of the whirlwind to send to Yang Ruoqian.

Shang Qianyu replied almost immediately: "Xiao Shang is here! What do you want, boss?"

Yang Ruoqian asked: "How is it? How is the overseas market response?"

"Very good, very good!" Shang Qianyu's typing speed is obviously much faster than when he first joined the company. "I feel that the scale of my autograph session here is not worse than that in China. I heard from the local staff that according to the trend of the first day, the final total box office is expected to reach at least 30 million US dollars."

As if worried that Yang Ruoqian would not be satisfied with this number, Shang Qianyu immediately added: "Boss, don't think that this 30 million US dollars is not enough for you to fill your teeth, in fact, it is really a lot!"

"This place is not as good as ours in terms of population and economy. Even this place can contribute so much box office, and other regions will only be higher."

"I just eavesdropped on the statistics of the sister next door. They said that the total global box office this time is expected to exceed 400 million US dollars!"

Seeing this number, Yang Ruoqian's heart twitched inexplicably.

With this global box office, plus the domestic box office, plus the peripheral sales... It feels like the group will soon be able to save enough money for a cruise ship?

Seeing that Yang Ruoqian still didn't say anything, Shang Qianyu quickly gave a few examples: "Boss, let me tell you about this concept... "Captain America 3" has a global box office of about 400 million; "Pirates of the Caribbean 2" has a global box office of about 400 million."

"Our movie box office is already at this level, which is really good! Although it can't compare with those monsters in the top ten, this is our first attempt. First, we will build a good fan base and operate the basic plate well. "The Boys 3" will definitely exceed 1 billion box office!"

"The hook left at the end of the movie is definitely something that no one can resist. Some people have already complained that they have seen people writing novels in fragments, but they have never seen people shooting movies in fragments."

"..."

Shang Qianyu sent a lot of messages in a hurry, seeming to be very worried that Yang Ruoqian would not be satisfied with the performance of the overseas box office this time, and worried that Yang Ruoqian would not be satisfied with his performance.

The global box office of more than 400 million US dollars is a huge success in an absolute sense. It not only broke the domestic record, but also ranked in the top 40 in the entire film history.

This is a brilliant achievement that many filmmakers dare not even think of.

But in a relative sense, it seems that this success is not huge.

After all, there are so many miracles created by Kuiguang Group. In comparison, this number can only be regarded as mediocre.

To put it bluntly, there are too many excellent projects in the group.

Yang Ruoqian also recovered from the miserable situation of making an unknown amount of money at this time and said: "You think too much. I am very satisfied, really very satisfied! You really make enough, take a rest, don't put too much pressure on yourself."

In fact, he really wanted to say, big brothers and sisters, you should make less money. You have made all the money. Who can make more than you?

But thinking of the many people eating together, he still controlled his desire to complain.

Moreover, Shang Qianyu was right.

This is the first time the group has truly tried to step onto the international stage, and the fan reputation is still in the early stages of accumulation.

When everyone has a clear understanding of the quality, acting skills and plot of "The Black Robe Inspection Team 2", and when the actors and characters have accumulated a large number of global fans, coupled with the itchy hook left at the end of the movie, the box office of the third part will inevitably usher in a large-scale explosion.

Shang Qianyu said cautiously: "Really, boss, you don't think I make too little, do you?"

Yang Ruoqian suppressed the urge to block him: "Okay, my phone is out of power, hang up, talk next time."

"Boss, it was out of oil before, out of water last time, and out of power this time. What will it be next time?"

"Hang up."

After driving Shang Qianyu away, Yang Ruoqian received another letter from Mag.

"Sir Yang, it's a great success, a great success, hahaha!"

Yang Ruoqian had been waiting for this guy for a long time. He took a bite of the food and replied slowly: "Did Mr. Mag get specific information?"

"Statistics are still in progress." Mag still answered in his strange Chinese, "According to the calculation of our company's professional staff, the global box office is at least 400 million US dollars."

Yang Ruoqian was a little curious: "For Mr. Mag, a global box office of 400 million is considered a 'great success'?"

Success is certain. If a movie that can squeeze into the top 40 in the history of global movies is considered a failure, then there are too many failed movies to count.

However, the global box office share will have another link to share the money, so the proportion of the money that can be shared will be lower than the local box office.

For Mag's company, this cash flow is not a small amount of money, but it doesn't seem to be worth being so happy about?

"Yes, definitely!" Mag typed slowly, but it was obvious that he was very happy. "I see potential, potential! The first movie has such a good performance, I believe it will be even better in the future, I believe in my vision and your ability, Sir Yang!"

Potential...

Haha, ordinary outsiders only see the potential of "The Black Robe Inspection Team 2", but Yang Ruoqian is different. He sees something even more far-reaching.

Looking at the attention of netizens now, the big news in the entertainment industry has basically been completely divided up by this movie and Luo Ruqin.

Has anyone noticed the upcoming "Wandering Blue Star 2"?

From the perspective of filming costs, the cost of "Wandering Blue Star 2" is far more than "Black Robe Inspection Team 2".

Everyone's attention is locked on this movie, so who will pay attention to "Wandering Blue Star 2"?

When countless netizens are ecstatic that domestic culture has finally begun to go abroad and the domestic entertainment industry has finally ushered in a milestone honor, Mr. Yang secretly released the movie at this time.

It must be a flop, right?

Thinking about how he came up with such an idea just to lose some money, Yang Ruoqian couldn't help but feel a little emotional.

In the past, he at least had the opportunity to do some outrageous projects that would fail at first glance.

Now it is difficult to get a Waterloo box office just by acting, plot, technology, etc.

It must rely on diversion, deception, and sneak attacks.

Use the success of "Black Robe Inspection Team 2" to exchange for the failure of "Wandering Blue Star 2"

To sum it up with an old saying, success is the mother of failure. If you want to fail, you must succeed first.

After dinner, Yang Ruoqian waved his hand: "Okay, the group doesn't talk about drinking culture. After dinner, just do your own things."

Shao Yiqi still has to hurry up to get the preparations for the zoo done, so he can't let him eat and waste time here.

After that, Yang Ruoqian left the restaurant.

When he walked downstairs, a young girl who looked like a reporter who had just held a microphone and was happily "interviewing" Luo Rujin saw Yang Ruoqian with her sharp eyes and ran over in two steps.

"Hello, Mr. Yang, I am, uh, an unknown up master on Station B. Can I ask you a question? One, just one!"

Yang Ruoqian stopped and said: "Ask, there's just a little time."

In fact, the girl didn't think about what questions to ask at all, but she didn't want to miss this opportunity and thought of a temporary wording.

Be good at attitude, take up as little time as possible, and be sincere to let others accept your request.

Several questions flashed through her mind, and she suddenly had an idea and asked, "Mr. Yang, your "The Black Robe Inspection Team 2" has achieved great success in the global market. You should enter the international market in the future. Have you ever thought about opening a company branch overseas?"

Overseas company branch?

Yang Ruoqian was stunned for a moment - he seemed to have never thought about this question carefully. (End of this chapter)
