This director only makes bad movies

After much effort, Michael finally broke free from the reporters.

Jerry Brusheimer's sexual assault scandal exploded like an atomic bomb, sweeping the entire Internet and becoming the hottest news at the moment.

Good things don't go out, but bad things spread thousands of miles.

Everyone loves gossip, especially scandalous gossip.

Netizens and reporters were extremely excited and asked for details, especially wanting to know what was going on.

For several consecutive promotional events, reporters asked about Jerry Brusheimer, which made Michael extremely tired.

The key point is that this matter has not been resolved yet and is still entangled. I don’t know whether it is true or false and what the final result will be.

Michael didn’t dare to talk nonsense.

What he fears most now is that this matter will be confirmed, which will affect the movie.

The impact of a scandalous actor on a movie's reputation is simply devastating.

Fortunately, the Jerry Brusheimer matter has not yet been finalized. The two parties are still entangled, and the impact on the movie is limited.

But netizens didn't care that much, and online public opinion began to develop in a direction that was unfavorable to the movie.

"I don't think there's any need to watch a movie about a rapist."

"Director Michael is a bit unlucky to meet such an actor."

"I have long predicted that this movie will not be very good, because Xu Nan has not touched the porcelain in this movie. It is known that the movies in which Xu Nan touches porcelain are all wonderful, so it can be concluded that the movies in which Xu Nan touches porcelain are not good. It’s exciting, because the movie is not exciting, so the film’s performance will not be great. The current situation of “The Lone Ranger” has perfectly verified my prediction.”

"Man upstairs, you are really a genius, your predictions are so accurate."

"I didn't believe your prediction before, but it turns out I was wrong."

"I have already thought about it. The name of this law is Xu Nan's Porcelain Law. When you watch movies in the future, you can use this law to predict the quality of the movie."

"Excellent law, I will use it."

Of course, Michael noticed the comments on the Internet.

Now is a critical moment when the movie is about to be released, and he is very concerned about online public opinion because it will have an impact on the movie's box office.

Seeing that netizens had created a so-called Xu Nan's Law, Michael was speechless.

What an outrageous Xu Nan's law, there is no scientific basis at all.

This time it's purely a blind cat meets a dead rat, and if it weren't for Jerry Brusheimer's alleged sexual assault, the movie wouldn't have suffered.

This is a matter of luck and has nothing to do with the quality of the film.

But Michael was no longer in the mood to pay attention to such things, because he had more important things to solve.

Because the public opinion on the Internet was very unfavorable to the movie, and due to Jerry Brusheimer's sexual assault scandal, the theater notified Michael that it would readjust the movie's schedule.

This was a bolt from the blue for Michael, even more alarming than when he saw the Jerry Brusheimer scandal.

Anyone who knows a little bit about the industry knows how much impact a theater's film schedule will have on a movie's box office.

If there is no good film schedule, even a masterpiece classic movie will have difficulty in achieving good box office.

The most obvious example of this is the real and fake movie incident some time ago.

Cameron's movie is extremely exciting, but because the three major theater chains did not schedule the film, it only received a box office of more than 300 million.

Xu Nan's movie was extremely rubbish, but thanks to the strong support of the three major theater chains, it ended up with a box office of 470 million.

This is the best example of theater schedules affecting movie box office.

It can be said that scheduling is the life of a movie.

Originally, Michael had already negotiated the specific film schedule with the theaters, but due to a series of recent events, the theaters were not very satisfied with the film schedule and wanted to readjust and lower the film schedule of "The Lone Ranger."

Of course Michael couldn't agree.

Facing the representatives of the theaters, Michael argued: "Everyone, the film's schedule has already been agreed upon. Why do we need to make temporary adjustments?"

Representative of the theater chain: "Yes, the film schedule has been agreed upon a long time ago, but you have also seen the current situation. Jerry Brusheimer is suspected of sexual assault, and the audience is boycotting the film. We must be responsible to the audience, and the screening is not good. Movies will affect theater traffic."

Michael said sincerely: "Jerry Brusheimer's sexual assault of others is false and has not been confirmed. As for the resistance on the Internet, it is only a small number of people. Things on the Internet cannot be taken seriously."

The theater representative shook his head: "Director Michael, you can't look at things this way. Whether Jerry Brusheimer's sexual assault is true or not, it has affected the reputation of the movie and made some viewers not want to watch the movie.

As for the boycott on the Internet, it also represents the views of some people. The most important thing is that director Xu Nan did not criticize your movie. According to Xu Nan's law, it means that your movie will not be popular with the audience. "

"Wardefake?" Michael couldn't help but cursed.

God Xu Nan’s Law, what kind of outrageous law is this? Do you theaters still believe in this?

Rather than believing in Xu Nan's Law, it is better to believe in divination, at least that way it is more reliable.

Michael retorted righteously: "I can understand the first two reasons, but the so-called Xu Nan's Law is simply too outrageous. If your theater chain believes in science, how can you believe in such outrageous stuff?"

The theater representative nodded: "Director Michael, I am a graduate of Harvard University. You said this law is outrageous and I completely agree with it, but stupid audiences believe this stuff."

"You know what I mean, if the audience believes this, then we must believe it, because the audience will choose what movies they want to watch because of this outrageous law. As practitioners in the film and television industry, we can only follow the audience's ideas."

Michael had nothing to say.

Because what the theater representative said makes sense.

The main reason is that current online public opinion is very unfriendly to the movie "The Lone Ranger".

First, there was the movie Xu Nan refused to touch porcelain, and then there was the sexual assault scandal involving the movie's star Jerry Brusheimer. The two things combined led to this embarrassing situation.

Theater chains also rely on people to place their orders. When they find that the movie's online response is not good, they have to reduce their film schedule because they don't want the theater's traffic to decrease.

"In short, Director Michael, the film schedule of The Lone Ranger must be lowered, but if the movie gets a good response after it is released, we will increase the film schedule depending on the situation."

The theater representative left a message and left.

Michael sighed feebly, the current situation was really difficult.

Moreover, the theaters said that they would wait for the movie to be well-received before releasing it, but this was just empty words to comfort people.

When that time really comes, it will be too late for theaters to schedule movies online, and the lost box office will not be recovered.

In short, the key to the problem now is to reverse the negative public opinion on "The Lone Ranger" on the Internet and increase the popularity of the movie.

As long as public opinion changes and the popularity of the movie explodes, theater chains will definitely adjust their film schedules.

No one has trouble with money, especially theater chains.

But what can be done to reverse the negative public opinion about "The Lone Ranger"?

Jerry Brusheimer's scandal is difficult to solve, and he has no hand in it.

Michael frowned and thought hard for a long time, but still had no clue.

At this time, the producer suggested: "Director Michael, why not let that Chinese director Xu Nan touch your movie? This can divert the audience's attention."

Michael was stunned and looked at the producer with sharp eyes.

You actually asked me to beg Xu Nan to share my movie?

Is there any mistake.
