Chapter 384 The forest is big and there are all kinds of birds

After hearing Dong Yiya's words, Rong Guang was shocked. In his impression, although Zhang Yuanhui was not very reliable, he did not have the character to cause trouble. Otherwise, he would not trust him to manage Suzaku Pictures. Even if

Rong Guang himself doesn't care, there is another major shareholder, Yindu Institution.

As a state-owned factory, Yindu Institution also has accompanying personnel this time, and they will never let Zhang Yuanhui do whatever he wants.

Rong Guang immediately became anxious. No matter who it was, as long as he came to Cannes with him, he must be responsible for bringing him back to his country. So while he asked, he and Yuan Quan hurried to the local police station.

Dong Yiya also kept the story short and described the whole incident:

Didn’t it turn out that they were setting up a stall to sell movies?

Zhang Yuanhui was very energetic, and he personally guarded the booth and greeted various film dealers.

The film market in Cannes is not a vegetable market. Usually they pull out posters, and if they are more sophisticated, they bring in equipment to play on the spot. However, the sound of people communicating is relatively low, mainly because they are afraid of affecting the people around them. Not to mention

What did you say and how many times did you shout?

Zhang Yuanhui's mind was relatively quick. After discovering this situation, he was ready to play tricks on the posters. So he called his friends and translators, and hand-written several giant banners on the spot. Anyway,

The kind that scares people to death as soon as they enter the venue.

In fact, this does not violate any rules. The Cannes market pays according to the area. The venue rented this time is large enough. As long as the banner is placed in its own venue, the staff will never pay attention to it.

But the bad thing is the content of the banner.

There is nothing else, just exaggerated words and a bit too awesome. As a Chinese who has been influenced by "Yellow Crane Sister-in-law", who doesn't know how to write a few messy banners?

However, there is a banner hanging in the most eye-catching place, and it is the same banner that caused the accident - "Shaolin Temple", the most popular movie in history! It crushes global movies and specializes in all dissatisfaction!

A note needs to be made here: the four words "number of viewers" are written very small. At a glance, it becomes - "Shaolin Temple", the first movie in history!

One thing to say, not to mention the two sentences about the map cannon, in fact, the content of this banner is really without any moisture.

Generally speaking, two major data are used to calculate the performance of movies. The most commonly used data is the box office, which you should all know. The other is the number of moviegoers, which is what South Korea is used to counting.

Back then, the number of viewers of "Shaolin Temple" far exceeded 1 billion. Do you want other films to compare with it?

Regardless of those objective reasons, this film did create a record for the most viewers in the history of movies. And it has held this crown for a long time, and no other film can shake it.

Okay! You should be able to guess what happened, but some people can't stand it.

As the old saying goes - there is no best text!

Do you dare to say that you are number one? Don’t blame others for finding fault.

Due to the weak overseas distribution capabilities at that time, except for Hong Kong and several Southeast Asian countries, film producers in other countries and regions did not introduce "Shaolin Temple" at all, not even including Taiwan. Of course, Taiwan at the time had some policy factors.

By the way: It is for this reason that many countries and regions have never purchased the copyright of "Shaolin Temple", so they came here to try their luck this time.

Therefore, many people overseas have almost never heard of this film. Only a few hardcore Chinese kung fu enthusiasts still have some vague impressions that they know that this film is the debut film of Jet Lee (Li Lien). Also because of the overseas

Due to copyright issues, almost no one has seen it.

But that's it. They have no idea or understanding of how awesome "Shaolin Temple" was back then and how much of a sensation it caused in the country. Not only have they not watched it, but they don't even know that it has such tragic and amazing results.

!

After understanding this, you should be able to understand that a completely unfamiliar movie dares to call itself the first in history?

Most of the people were watching the excitement and making some slanderous remarks at most, just waiting for these Chinese people to pretend to be idiots.

However, there will never be a shortage of people who are short-sighted. Finally, someone raised a question, hoping that Zhang Yuan would ask them to take the initiative to put away this banner.

Zhang Yuanhui is of course confident, and his performance is his confidence. Let’s explain it with “bala bala”.

Don't tell me, the explanation is quite effective.

Most people were dubious and chose not to bother with it. Some even called in the staff, but the staff were also unsure of the authenticity of the content and did not dare to take care of it rashly.

Finally someone found out - the number of moviegoers!

Those who doubted became more hesitant. Who doesn’t know that China has the largest population in the world, maybe... it’s true?

To be honest, if we enter the era of smartphones, this problem will no longer be a problem. No matter how obscure the knowledge is, you can search it clearly on the Internet.

But now it’s impossible to determine the truth?

Seeing this scene, Zhang Yuan couldn't help but feel happy. He didn't do anything arrogant. Anyway, he had achieved his goal and attracted many onlookers, and many film producers had left their business cards.

Originally, this matter should have ended like this. However, the forest is so big that there are all kinds of birds. Zhang Yuanhui and the others were unlucky enough to meet a gangster.

The more the bully thought about it, the more unconvinced he became, so he turned around and summoned a British reporter to prove it. Why was this British reporter able to prove it? Because he was a well-known "movie know-it-all" in the small circle, especially when it came to data.

, the British reporter can almost speak and speak, so he is a very powerful person.

When the British reporter made a guarantee that the film with the largest number of viewers was definitely not "Shaolin Temple", he then reported a series of film names and numbers, showing off complacently, which attracted cheers from the surroundings.

However, looking at the data emperor, Zhang Yuan thought they looked like "idiots". Who is this white-skinned pig? Is he out of his mind? Maybe foreigners don't know, but Chinese people may not know "Shaolin Temple"

? And there are people from the Yindu organization around, and they have first-hand data on "Shaolin Temple".

And there is no water in this data. In those days, state-owned factories had to pay all profits and taxes! And there was also the Price Bureau back then. The price of movie tickets could not be one cent lower, and it could never be one cent higher. The regulations were so strict that it was impossible to do so.

Do tricks.

That’s not even counting. After the old copies are collected, they are distributed to various projection teams to show outdoor movies? How many more screenings are there secretly in the cinema?
