Chapter Thirty-ninth, the schedule

"Hard Fruit Candy" will be released on July 19?

"This is not good news. What is the theater company doing?!" Victor was quite angry.

Zhu Ke also squinted his eyes.

Every year in North America, the first weekend in May to mid-August is the summer season in North America and the season is also a time for blockbusters. Many major Hollywood companies can earn a huge box office in the summer season.

Of course, this also means that the fight is extremely tragic!

If large companies are like this, it will inevitably lead to the fact that the movies produced by medium and small film companies cannot get enough screens to be released and can only be reduced to cannon fodder.

Isn’t July the summer season in North America!

The movies produced by small film companies are not afraid to be released in the summer season, for fear of being crushed.

I’m afraid of movies that cost tens of millions of dollars. How can I dare to compete with blockbusters produced by big companies in the movie “Hard Fruit Candy” with less than 1 million dollars?

Aren't you afraid of being crushed into cannon fodder?

Obviously, Wald Pictures is not that hard-working!

"Boss, the theater company is going to mess with us!"

Victor took out the July North American movie schedule and looked at the high-volume films above, and couldn't help but feel anger in his heart.

Which of the films such as "Evaporation Secret Order", "The Clock Tower Monster", "A Different Miracle", "Independence Day", "The Killing Moment", "The Big Wave" and other films are not released by the six major Hollywood productions?

Damn it!

Zhuke looked at the videos released in late June and July, and he was so stupid!

"I'm Ge, I want me to die!"

"These videos are all the top 40 films in the North American box office rankings this year. No movie has a North American box office of less than $50 million!"

Kidney pain.

For those who are worth less than 1 million US dollars, what should I do to make these blockbusters?

Hit the stone with eggs, hit the stone with eggs!

"Marsha, please contact several theater companies to see if our "Hard Fruit Candy" can be released in early August or mid-August." Zucker said immediately.

"Okay, boss."

Sister Martha immediately called the theater company, but the results were not ideal.

"Boss, several theaters said that the August schedule is over and cannot be adjusted. If... if it is forced to postpone the release, it will only be September." Sister Martha's face was also ugly.

"The shit is released in September! All the students go to school in September, so let the ghosts watch the movie!" Zhuke couldn't help but get angry.

Victor looked at Martha and said in a deep voice: "How many films can they schedule for "Hard Fruit Candy" on July 19?"

There is no hope of adjusting the schedule at present, so I can only make efforts on the release screen.

"The first weekend is 300 screens. And they also said that this is because our previous movie "Rolla Run" has won $100 million overseas, otherwise it would be difficult to get 100 screens." Sister Martha said gritting her teeth.

Snap 300 screens?

What's enough for?

The theater company treats "Hard Fruit Candy" and Wald Pictures as cannon fodder!

Yes, the movie "Fruit Hard Candy" has a small cost and is even more of a niche movie. It will not achieve too high box office, but the quality of the movie is good. If you arrange a good schedule, there will always be a box office of 6 million to 10 million US dollars.

As for now?

Thank God for being scheduled to be released in the summer season where blockbusters are crowded, and I can win $3 million!

"Boss, do we want to postpone "Hard Fruit Candy" until March/April next year?" Victor suggested.

The schedule in March and April is relatively loose. According to Victor's arrangement, "Fruit Hard Candy" can indeed achieve a good box office, but Zucker doesn't want to wait!

"Don't wait for next year, it's scheduled to be released on July 19." Zucker gritted his teeth.

"But......"

Victor wanted to say something, but was interrupted by Zucker.

In March and April next year, there will be a forced movie "Barish City", with a box office of nearly 60 million US dollars in North America, which is enough to beat a number of movies with niche themes.

Although the summer season is full of blockbusters, "Fruit Hard Candy" is a niche movie with a completely different taste. As long as you do a good job of publicity, you may not be able to achieve a good box office. It's just that it's very difficult and almost desperate.

In fact, there is another reason why Zhuke didn't say it out.

The director of this "Hard Fruit Candy" is Zach Schneider!

The future Hollywood super director!

Zucker has seen Zach's finished films, and it has to be said that they are even better than "Fruit Hard Candy" in the original time and space. The delay in the release of the film will inevitably lead to a series of unexpected situations. Choosing to face the difficulties will inevitably make Zach Schneider more grateful to Wald Pictures. Deepening the connection between the two will be of great benefit to the future.

.........

July 4.

Wald Pictures.

Director Zach Schneider sat on the sofa with an ugly expression, and his whole body trembled with anger.

"Zach, I'm sorry. We at Wald Pictures are too weak to give you a good schedule and number of screens. After all, "Fruit Hard Candy" is your first official movie, and I didn't expect it to be messed up because of our Wald Pictures. Well, I, Juke Wald, say to you again, I'm sorry~"

Zhuke's expression, which seemed to be hit, made Zach feel even more guilty.

have a look!

Take a good look!

Benefactor!

A great person!

"I, Zach, is just a director, and Mr. Wald is the boss of the film company. The movie "Hard Fruit Candy" has not achieved good schedules. He is the biggest loss. But now he is so comforting and authoritative. I, a young director, I..."

Zach felt more and more guilty: "Maybe I should go back and continue shooting the song MV."

Thinking of this, Zach immediately stood up and said solemnly: "Mr. Wald, the movie has not achieved good schedules. It is not your responsibility, but my responsibility. If... if my director skills are a little more solid, I will definitely impress more theater companies. You don't have to say sorry to me, it is me who should apologize to you~!"

After pausing, he continued, "Maybe I'm not suitable to be a director. I don't have the talent for director. I may keep shooting mvs in the future, so I...."

"fart!"

Zucker yelled at him: "Zach! Mr. Zach Schneider, remember, you are a genius, a rare movie genius!"

"Isn't it just a movie? If you pay, you will pay. I value you as a person. As long as you are willing to shoot and I still have money, you will keep shooting. If you don't have a movie, just shoot two movies. If you don't have a movie, you can shoot a hundred and eighty movies."

"No money? At worst, I can mortgage the company. I don't believe we can't succeed!"

As he finished speaking, Zach was moved.

Look, this is a kind of grace to know the favor!

Zach Schneider, who was excited at this moment, almost knelt down and was willing to drink, smoke, and perm his head for the Zhu family for generations.

"Oh, I didn't expect that I have such good acting skills." Zhu Ke praised himself in his heart.
