Chapter 78 - Pre-Sale
After Fu Mingxu left Fu s.h.i.+han"s room, he returned to his own room. He picked up his phone and ordered, "Add fuel to the fire with that Weibo post to the Fu family. Fu Hanchuan has severed ties with the Fu family."
His face was full of gloom.
Just by spreading the news that the Fu family did not care about Fu Hanchuan, Fu Hanchuan"s life would still be the same as before. Only by severing ties would Fu Hanchuan"s life be truly miserable.
He wanted everyone to know that he was the only Young Master of the Fu family and that he was the only one who would inherit the Fu Corporation.
Fu Hanchuan would always be trampled under his feet.
a.s.sistant Lin also followed the Fu Corporation"s Weibo. When he saw the Fu Corporation"s post, he laughed mockingly..
The CEO of his family was the head of HD Group. All the companies in H City wanted to curry favor with him, so he didn"t need to have anything to do with the Fu family.
a.s.sistant Lin didn"t tell Fu Hanchuan about this. Fu Hanchuan wouldn"t care about the Fu family"s att.i.tude.
Telling him was just a waste of his time.

Two days later, the pre-sale of the movie started.
The box office of "Floating Cloud Atlas" was more than ten million yuan, while "Wind and Cloud Records" was more than sixty million yuan.
Those who wanted to see "Floating Cloud Atlas" were mostly watching. They were worried that the movie would be bad and waste money. Some wanted to see "Wind and Cloud Records".
It was obvious that Fei Long Film was opposing Feng Entertainment. As long as it was during the broadcast time of "Floating Cloud Atlas", "Wind and Cloud Records" would definitely be showing as well.
Li Yongnian looked at the crowded movie theater and returned to his office. His eyes were filled with pride.
"CEO Li, it seems that the Feng Corporation will not be able to make a comeback this time," the director of "Wind and Cloud Records", Teng Yunlong, said with a smile.
Li Yongnian was very polite. He picked up a gla.s.s of red wine and gave it to Teng Yunlong. "That"s partly because of you. If it wasn"t for this good movie that you directed, how could I have crushed the Feng Corporation?"
"Hahaha, I"ve also received a lot of benefits. I still have to thank CEO Li."
In the past, the profit was usually 40-60%. This time, he was actually able to get 80% of the total box office earnings. Teng Yun was extremely happy.
He raised his wine gla.s.s. "CEO Li, let"s celebrate our victory in advance."
"Come." Li Yongnian laughed loudly.
...
In the screening room of "Floating Cloud Atlas", everyone was focused on the movie screen. From time to time, they would burst into laughter.
Compared to "Floating Cloud Atlas", the screening room of "Wind and Cloud Records" was silent.
A portion of people had left the venue early, or was playing on their phones. One after another, they started to complain online.
[I was very disappointed when I watched "Wind and Cloud Records". I heard that there was a 400 million investment.]
[What a waste of my money!]
[It"s so embarra.s.sing! Those actors with rubbish acting skills, as well as those costumes! I simply cannot bear to look!]
Almost everyone who had seen "Wind and Cloud Records" was complaining.
Some of the voices that were defending their idols were drowned out by the complaints.
After seeing the complaints online, some people stopped thinking about watching "Wind and Cloud Records".
The reaction from "Wind and Cloud Records" was not good. Everyone turned to look at the comments on "Floating Cloud Atlas". However, they did not find any comments. The netizens started to speculate.
[What"s going on with "Floating Cloud Atlas"? There are still no comments? That"s not normal.]
[Could it be that it"s too ugly and they don"t want to write any comments?]
[It"s possible that no one is going to watch it, so naturally, there are no comments. ]
[Disperse. It"s better not to go to the movies for the time being. There are no movies to watch.]
They really did not think highly of "Floating Cloud Atlas". "Wind and Cloud Records" had invested 300 million, yet the reviews were so bad, not to mention that "Floating Cloud Atlas" had spent less than 10 million.
