Chapter 626: Box Office Champion

Thank you readers!
"'Mao Mountain Taoist Master' is a genuine and conscientious local production?"
"Haotian Pictures, the hope of Huaxia cinema?"
Tian Qiuming's lips curled up into a sneer when he read the screen full of positive reviews.
"Pay all the comments you want! What kind of trash film is this? And you call it the hope of Huaxia cinema? Dammt, are you looking down on me?" He snorted.
He switched to his movie review page, and the corner of his eye twitched when he saw the page full of negative reviews.
The negative comments had been pouring in since midnight.
However, he was not angry. After many years as a director, he had long gotten used to it. There was no such thing as negative publicity. The more they commented, the more famous his movies became, and the higher his profits.
It did not matter if the movie was horrible. Any movie that could entice viewers to pay for cinema tickets was a good movie.
Tian Qiuming's name alone was very appealing. With a bunch of big-name celebrities starring in the movie, it would not be a problem for him to earn 500 to 600 million during the Lunar New Year period.
"All you Internet trolls are vulgar and crass. How could you possibly understand my movie?"
He sat in his villa which was worth tens of millions, lit a cigar, poured a glass of red wine, and slowly sipped it. From time to time, he would quarrel with netizens. What a relaxing day!
"All these losers are idiots! What do they know?"
He felt disdainful toward the people dogpiling on his movie.
As he scrolled down his feed, he gradually realized that something was amiss. Why were there more and more people speaking up for Haotian? He wondered how much money they spent on paid commenters.
'Hm? Isn't Ma Hongbin a famous film critic? He had been enthusiastically criticizing Haotian before. Why is he on their side now? How much money did he receive?
'Huh? Tao Fei too? Why did he change sides?'
He became more and more confused as he saw those big names.
'This shouldn't be!
'Haotian Pictures only has been established not long ago, and they aren't connected to the bigshots in the industry. How were they able to bribe so many people and so quickly?'
"Hmph! So what if you bribe so many people? At most, you'll earn a little more from the box office. You might not even recoup the money you spent on paying the critics. You'll never catch up to me."
He felt disdainful.
Today, his movie was scheduled for many screenings. He would easily rake in 70 to 80 million, and maybe even 100 million.
That trash movie would make at most three or four million. That was a twenty-fold difference.
"Haotian's boss must be an idiot!"
He took a sip of red wine and sneered.
Not long after, his phone rang. He picked it up and saw that it was the president of his company.
"Hey, President Lin, Happy New Year! Wishing you riches and prosperity!"
He shouted as soon as he picked up the phone.
