"The Man Without a Name" was set for August 6, 2004, which made many distribution companies and producers angry and relieved.

After all, Chen Hao is in the limelight now, if he meets "The Man Without a Surname", then it is likely that both sides will lose, and even worse, he may be crushed unilaterally, no matter which situation is not the best result.

Now, there is at least a gap of more than 3 weeks between the blockbusters, which is undoubtedly much better, and it will not affect each other's top weeks at the box office.

As for the box office in the next few weeks, it depends on the word-of-mouth of the film!

Of course, the one who is a little depressed is Huaying, after all, "Shrek 2" is a Hollywood film introduced by Huaying.

The release time of "The Man Without a Name" and "Shrek 2" is only 4 days apart, and it is "The Man Without a Name" that is the first to be released, which is undoubtedly not very friendly to "Shrek 2".

However, "The Man Without a Name" also has investment from Huaying, and it definitely surpasses the animated film "Shrek 2" in terms of box office potential.

Therefore, Huaying didn't say much about it, and was also invited to participate in the viewing party of "The Man Without a Surname", after all, Han Sanpin's attention to Chen Hao is no secret in the circle now.

With the support of Han Sanpin, Haotian Film and Television has more advantages in terms of film scheduling and producer sharing, which can be seen with a clear eye.

There are still many things that cannot be seen, such as with Han Sanpin, Huayi and other Haotian competitors will also have scruples and dare not mess around.

The competition can only come openly, but it is only competing with Chen Hao head-on, and now except for the three major directors and the well-known directors of Xiangjiang Treasure Island, I am afraid that there is no chance of winning at all.

And even if it is the three major directors or the director of Xiangjiang Baodao and Chen Hao face to face, I am afraid that I dare not say what the odds are, at most five or five!

......

Time flew by, and soon in late June, the special effects shots of "The Man Without a Name" had been completed, and Chen Hao hurried up to make the final editing.

By the end of June, "The Man Without a Name" had finally officially completed all the post-production.

On June 30, Chen Hao held a viewing party of "The Man Without a Surname" in Haotian Film and Television.

Several important domestic cinemas and distribution companies have accepted the invitation, such as Jiangsu and Zhejiang Times, Guangdong Jinyi, Huaying Xingmei, New Film Association, etc., and of course, their own Haotian Cinema Line is indispensable.

"Mr. Chen, congratulations on the new film being released again. Huaying's Xiao Li smiled when he saw it.

"Thank you, Assistant Li, please. Chen Hao said with a smile.

Haotian Film and Television's movies are basically distributed in cooperation with Huaying, and since "Moon", Assistant Li has been in contact with Haotian, so they are also very familiar with each other.

"Director Chen, this time it's a sci-fi film again, ready to hit a new box office high?" Assistant Li said with a smile.

"Hahaha...... With your kind words, I also hope to break the box office record of "District 9". Chen Hao said with a smile.

The mainland box office of "District 9" is 103 million yuan, and if "The Man Without a Name" breaks the box office record of "District 9", it will naturally also break 100 million!

In 2004, what was the concept of being able to have two movies that broke 100 million at the box office?

The whole of China can only be done by national teachers (plus the upcoming "Ambush on All Sides"), and Feng Cannon's "No Thieves in the World" at the end of the year only broke 100 million for the first time.

Chen Kaige did not break 100 million for the first time until "Wuji" in 2005.

Besides, the director of Xiangjiang Treasure Island, as of 2004, only Xing Ye's "Kung Fu" box office exceeded 100 million in the mainland!

The box office of two consecutive movies has exceeded 100 million, second only to the national teacher, and this achievement will undoubtedly make Chen Hao's title of "fourth director" more stable.

It will also make Chen Hao one of the most appealing commercial film directors in the mainland!

And the investment in "The Man Without a Name" is as high as 40 million yuan, plus the publicity is at least 10 million, which is the cost of 50 million.

According to the 40% box office share, it will take at least 125 million yuan to ensure that it will not lose money.

Of course, these do not include Western film markets such as Xiangjiang, Baodao, Southeast Asia, South Korea and island countries, and North America.

However, in Chen Hao's view, even the mainland is best to protect the capital, otherwise it is a little unreasonable.

It can only be said that the current mainland film market is far from being developed, and the ceiling is too low!

"Brother, congratulations!" Yu Dong saw Chen Hao coming over enthusiastically, and hugged him.

"Thank you, Brother Dong!" Chen Hao patted Yu Dong's back and said.

Now Yu Dong is in good spirits, since the merger of Berna Culture and Poly Group's Oriental Shenlong Pictures into the imperial capital Poly Bona, relying on Poly's strong capital, Poly Bona can be said to be booming.

Now Poly Bona is already a leader in the domestic film distribution industry, and has been involved in film investment and production, opening up the upstream of the film and television industry chain.

Since 2003, when I first invested in the movie "Beauty Grass", I have invested in "Please Praise Me" and "I Love You Again" this year.

"Please Praise Me" was invested by Poly Bona and Haotian Film and Television, while "Say I Love You Again" was cooperated with Xiangjiang's Yingyi Entertainment.

Poly Bona is backed by Poly Group, and has a good relationship with Haotian Film and Television in the mainland, and has opened up the road of Xiangjiang Film Distribution by virtue of its previous operations.

Now it is cooperating with Xiangjiang's entertainment companies to invest in films, and being able to cooperate with Xiangjiang's superstars and well-known directors can be described as a smooth road to development!

Therefore, Yu Dong is now in high spirits, and he is not so envious and jealous of Chen Hao.

"The promotion of "The Man Without a Name" has been going on for a while, and then you have to take a few leading actors to run the promotion. Yu Dong said.

The publicity of "The Man Without a Name" can actually be regarded as publicity from the start of filming, after all, Chen Hao's name is now not inferior to the three major directors, so everyone is very concerned.

It's been 4 months now, and the real publicity started when "The Man Without a Name" was finished and post-production began.

Well-known websites such as movie theater posters, bus body advertisements, Tianya Forum on the Internet, and Qidian Chinese Network have already placed advertisements for "The Man Without a Name".

Now that the production of "The Man Without a Name" has been completed, Chen Hao has to lead the team to promote!

"No problem, after the film viewing meeting is over and the film schedule is determined, I will start to promote. Chen Hao nodded.

Yu Dong nodded when he heard this, "That's good, let's go, I'm looking forward to your new film." ”

Chen Hao smiled and entered the small theater renovated by the company with Yu Dong.

"Thank you very much for being able to enjoy your presence today, although we are all old friends, but thank you in advance!" Chen Hao said with a smile.

"Mr. Chen is polite!"

"Mr. Chen, we have been looking forward to your new film for a long time!"

"It should be that we thank Mr. Chen for making a good movie!"

......

"Hahaha...... Everybody's praised. Chen Hao smiled, "Since everyone is in a hurry, then I won't waste time, let's start watching the film directly!"
