Chapter 56: The Good Luck Potion is Still Working

Chapter 56: The Good Luck Potion is Still Working
Teikyo, at the entrance of a movie.

A little black guy came out, still with disbelief on his face.

Although he was one of the first black fans who bought tickets to the cinema to support Cheng Cheng, and he also spoke up for Cheng Cheng online and supported him in making movies, it is impossible to say that he did not have any doubts in his heart.

Even if he didn't think he had it, most of the black guys who bought tickets did.

They bought the tickets because they had the money and they just wanted to support Frog Brother and make him feel that he is not alone and that they, the little black guys, are behind him.

And they also think that what Frog Brother did is definitely worth the money of a movie ticket.

As for the movie, they really don’t think Cheng Cheng can make it well.

After all, Cheng Cheng was a complete layman before, and his professional level in his own field was so poor that he was criticized by the whole network, let alone making movies across industries.

What's more, look at the main creators of the movie: Wen Lian, Li Yang, Meng Cai, Qi Hao, none of them are very popular.

Therefore, they have already admitted the loss before buying the movie tickets.

Even if the movie is bad, what's wrong with losing the money for a movie ticket?
Hasn't Frog done enough?
But after watching the movie, he realized that he was overthinking!
Oh shit!

Who said Frog Brother can’t take good photos?

This movie! The concept, texture, camera, rhythm, plot, casting, acting, subject matter, special effects! Everything is impeccable!

He really understands!
He really knows how to make movies!

This black guy opened the group chat and typed like crazy:

"Brothers! Go watch All or Nothing!"

"It's so good!"

"Brother Frog really didn't lie to us!"

-

At this moment, cinemas across the country.

All the audience who watched "All or Nothing" were excited!
Dijing.

“This movie is so good!”

“I didn’t expect Cheng Cheng to be so good at filming, and he acted so well too.”

"Indeed! His performance scared me, especially the part where he asked Wen Lian to kneel down for him. My god, the sense of oppression was too strong!"

"And he's super handsome! Why didn't I notice it before?"

"My favorite part is when he handed his daughter over to Li Yang. I feel like he brought this character to life!"

Yuanxing Province, Fuhai City.

"This movie is so scary, I will never travel to Southeast Asia again!"

"Yeah, it's too shady. The police actually cooperated with that group of fraudsters. It has become an industry."

"To be honest, this movie is really well made and very educational."

"I will have to recommend this movie to my childhood friend. He often plays online gambling. I have to let him know that there is no such thing as luck. It's all a trap set by others to deceive you."

Xueyu Province, Yulong City.

"The acting of all the actors in this movie is really good. I thought it was just a joke, but I didn't expect Cheng Cheng to get a bad hand and win! Who could have thought of this!"

"You know what, it's really like that! And I didn't expect Cheng Cheng's acting is the best! His performance in it is so explosive! It feels like his acting is broken, I can still remember the look in his eyes in it now!"

"Li Yang is also very good! There are also Wen Lian, Qi Hao, Yan Gou'er, and another one whose name I don't remember clearly, but it seems that none of them are bad."

"Wen Lian is so beautiful in there! My saliva is flowing!"

"Look at what you've accomplished! I still think Yan Gou'er is pretty, so damn pure! Ahhh, has she ever had any works before? I'm going to become her face-hungry lover!"

"How does Cheng Cheng choose actors? Each one is better than the other!"

Fenglin Province, Shilin City.

“I’m still not finished!”

"Looking at the last shot, it seems there will be a second part."

"I hope so. I think this movie is so interesting. It seems like this is the first anti-fraud movie in China. It turns out Cheng Cheng didn't lie! He wasn't having a seizure!"

"Since he got sick, it seems like he has become more talented, more handsome, and has better acting skills!"

"If you say that, I'm going to get sick too!"

Lancang Province, Langang City.

"I didn't expect Acai to be a pure love warrior!"

"Who is it? I really didn't expect this! Without him, the protagonist group would have been basically wiped out."

"Maybe it's because the ending is too dark that the film was not allowed to be broadcast, but the flaws do not outweigh the merits. This movie is really enjoyable to watch. I don't know how much it will make at the box office."

"Before, when Cheng Cheng was crazy, he said that his small goal was 1 billion yuan. At that time, he was ridiculed by the whole network. Now I think 1 billion yuan seems to be really possible."

"Don't tell me, don't tell me! I really think this movie has the potential to be worth 1 billion!"

——Soon, it was eight o'clock in the evening, and there were only four hours left until the early morning. The first day's box office battle had entered the second half.

But it is also the most critical moment!
Lu Zhuofeng asked: "What is our current box office?"

The people around him said, "It's already 2.32 million! Director Zhang!"

Lu Zhuofeng nodded arrogantly!
2.32 billion!
This is a first-day box office result that is unattainable in the careers of many directors, but in his case, it just barely reached the passing line that he expected!

Lu Zhuofeng: "What about the other two?"

"The other two are lower than ours. "Funny Road" is 2.05 million, and "War" is 1.89 million."

Lu Zhuofeng sneered in his heart.

Ma Qibin is still a little short of it. Does he think that by inviting Cai Wenlan, he can compete with him?
Cai Wenlan is just an outdated old-fashioned action star, and her fan base has long been old! Ma Qibin has some box office appeal, but compared to him, he is still far behind! There is no comparison at all.

Lu Zhuofeng suddenly had a feeling of being lonely at the top. In terms of domestic box office appeal, he was number one by a large margin!

No one can compare to him! Moreover, his movie "Glorious Era" is also full of big names!

"Yeah." Lu Zhuofeng nodded calmly and said, "There is still a lot of time left. Let's make another effort and try to make up for the accident this morning."

"Okay!" The people around him left quickly.

What happened in the morning did not last long. After only three hours, theaters across the country that had problems resumed screenings one after another.

It probably only affected the box office by a few millions.

However, this incident also led to a lot of disputes.

Both "Glorious Times" and "War" called all over the continent, hoping to have their films resumed broadcasting first. Only "Funny Road" was an honest person who waited patiently.

So, "Glorious Times" and "War" resumed broadcasting one after another, but "Funny Road" had to wait for another half an hour.

Because of this matter, the main creative team of "Funny Road Show", including the brother, sister and director, had a black face at the premiere and almost cursed people on the spot!
This matter has now become a big deal on the Internet. Insiders have revealed the inside story, saying that "Glorious Times" and "War" have teamed up to harm "Funny Road".

funny!

Are they working together to harm "Funny Road"?

It is obvious that both "Glorious Times" and "War" wanted to take advantage of the unexpected incident to trick the other two, but they just happened to reach a tacit understanding.

In other words: it's totally broken!
Just when Lv Zhuofeng was immersed in the first day box office breaking the 3.5 million mark, suddenly bad news came:
"Director Lu, it's broken! There's a problem with the cinema again! We can't watch "War" and "Funny Road" again! And there are twice as many cinemas as in the morning!"

Lu Zhuofeng raised his head and almost spit out a mouthful of blood: "Or is it a theater under Quanzhou?"

“They are all cinemas under Jeonju!”

Lu Zhuofeng's eyes widened: "Or is "All or Nothing" the only one worth watching?"

"Yes!"

Lu Zhuofeng yelled, "So what is the box office of All or Nothing now?"

"thirty million."

Lu Zhuofeng couldn't believe it: "Even the last gamble is 30 million?!"

-

The director of "War" is here.

Ma Qibin was furious: "What? Another problem? Why did we have to deal with it? There was nothing wrong with "All or Nothing"?!"

"Quanzhou is still investigating the cause. They explained that it might be a human error. They made an error when loading or configuring the movie files, which resulted in incorrect file paths, configuration settings or playback parameters for our three movies. Fortunately, All or Nothing was configured correctly. It might also be that the file was damaged or the format was incompatible. In short, the problem was the same as this morning."

"Then why didn't these cinemas have any accidents during the day but happened at night?"

"I don't know about that, but it could be because the file is damaged. There was a problem with the source of the film that Quanzhou transmitted to the theater. It broke after playing it a few times."

"Fuck it!" Ma Qibin cursed loudly.

He immediately called his contacts across the continent, urging them to resume broadcasting "War".

-

The main creators of "Funny Road Show" are here.

Ning Shan: "Again?! I've had enough! What a rubbish cinema chain in Quanzhou. If you can do it, do it. If you can't, give it to others!"

Mi Hai, the top actress of Coconut Mangmang, was also very angry: "If Quanzhou hadn't made the mistake this morning, our box office might have surpassed "Glorious Era"! Ningshan, director, what do you say we should do!"

Ning Shan made a decision immediately: "Call Quanzhou. If they do it on the first day of the month, we will do it on the fifteenth! This time we must ensure that "Funny Road" is broadcast first, and "War" and "Glorious Times" must be put behind."

Mihai: "That's right! And we have to let them recover an hour later than us!"

The director of "Funny Road Show" is not as well-known in the industry as Ning Shan and Mi Hai, and he is also a bit timid: "Isn't this bad?"

Ning Shan said, "What's wrong with that? Director, if you don't hit me, I will! I have a bad temper, so I'll take it!"

-

The luck potion is still working!
