Fang Kai is the manager of Yanjing Dadi Cinema, and as the legendary theater manager, Fang Kai's most important job every day is to consider the problem of the theater's film scheduling, and because of this right, Fang Kai has been living quite chic-

The Earth Cinema has eight halls!

Among the cinemas in Yanjing, it is the largest batch of cinemas, and because it is located in a prosperous location, this cinema has a certain sense of existence in the entire Yanjing, and Fang Kai's status as a cinema manager is naturally rising.

Sit in the office.

Fang Kai said to the secretary: "Show me yesterday's data table, including "Myth" and "Peacock" and the attendance rate of all the movies, and I also want to know the situation this morning." ”

"Good manager. ”

The secretary immediately went to explain Fang Kai's task, and it didn't take long for her to bring the points file and table statistics, through the statistical data on these documents, Fang Kai could know at a glance the specific performance of the major movies in the movie theater schedule yesterday.

"Myth. ”

"Peacock. ”

took out the pen and directly circled the two most watched movies in the National Day file, Fang Kai made a decision in his heart after a comparison, and the schedule of "Myth" can be appropriately increased later, and the schedule of "Peacock" should be slowly reduced, but it can't be reduced too exaggerated, the distributor and producer behind this movie have a lot of background, and the theater chain has also said hello, so I have to grasp the degree of it-

Fang Kai is familiar with this.

Movies have never been high at the box office, because the time period of film scheduling is also divided into prime time and garbage reality, before 12 o'clock at noon and after 12 o'clock in the evening are basically garbage time, no matter how high the film schedule is, the box office of the film will not rise significantly, make good use of the garbage time scheduling, you can make a good face-saving film scheduling rate.

This method.

The insiders are tacit.

Under normal circumstances, if a film is scheduled a lot of garbage time, it is likely that the film is a film invested by a certain theater chain, and the theater chain has clear regulations that require each theater to ensure a specific number of shows, but the quality of this film is not too good, and the theater manager can only schedule this film in garbage time in order to cope with errands.

So there is a lot of knowledge in film arrangement.

The quality of the film and word of mouth can only be used as a reference, what really makes the theater manager interested is actually the attendance rate, although the reputation of "Myth" is not as good as "Peacock", but the audience who chooses to watch this movie is indeed more, in this case, Jackie Chan must be given more films, and the theater cannot get along with the money.

So......

Some movies are obviously very bad, but the box office can be very high, just because there are many audiences, how does the theater care about your quality and reputation, let's improve the film schedule, the more films are scheduled, the box office will naturally be higher, the box office will be high, and more people will see it, this is a vicious circle formed because of monetary interests!

Of course.

Fang Kai actually still has a bit of movie feelings, if it is indeed an excellent film, even if it is not so profitable, Fang Kai will generally arrange some good scenes, of course, this is limited to mainstream movies, for some small-budget movies, Fang Kai's patience is not so much, for example, he is now reviewing movies other than "Myth" and "Peacock", and the speed of browsing data is much faster, because these two movies in this National Day file can be regarded as big productions-

Everything else is cannon fodder!

After all, it is a National Day file, and there are always distributors who want to get a piece of the pie during this holiday, so there are still quite a lot of films left outside of "Myth" and "Peacock", circle a movie called "Eros", Fang Kai made a big cross, tomorrow or even this afternoon, Dadi Cinema will not provide a film schedule for this movie, because the two films arranged by this movie yesterday were not watched by few audiences.

"Crazy stones?"

Another movie came into Fang Kai's sight.

Fang Kai didn't watch this movie, as a theater manager, although he is responsible for scheduling films, he will not watch every movie that enters the film schedule, only movies such as "Myth" or "Peacock" are eligible for Fang Kai to participate in the viewing party held by the distributor.

"Two were scheduled yesterday. ”

"The first game was very poor. ”

"Attendance was a little bit better in the second game. ”

Looking at the performance of "Crazy Stone" on the first day, in connection with the box office of the first day of this movie and the actual situation, Fang Kai shook his head, in some small cinemas in second- and third-tier cities, this movie may continue to be scheduled, but in Yanjing Dadi Cinema, according to the results of this movie, it can also be prepared to go down.

The relevant markings are done.

Fang Kai looked at this morning's data table again, the popularity of "Myth" has not decreased, and "Peacock" has decreased slightly, these situations are in line with Fang Kai's expectations, and also make Fang Kai more determined, but when he saw the movie that ranked third in the data this morning, Fang Kai couldn't help but let out a soft sigh-

Crazy stones?

Yesterday's data of this movie was only ranked sixth, Fang Kai had already planned to put this movie into the cold palace, anyway, it was just a small cast of two or three million, and it was an experimental movie at first glance, but the data of this movie this morning was significantly higher than yesterday, and the attendance rate also rose to 40%!

To know......

The attendance rate of the first show of this movie was only 20%, and even the attendance rate of the show at one o'clock in the afternoon was only slightly better, reaching a pitiful 25%, but this morning, the number of moviegoers suddenly doubled?

It's so unusual!

Keeping his eyes on this movie, Fang Kai knew that this situation could not be ignored in general, so he got up directly and said to the secretary who was waiting outside: "Arrange tickets for me for the latest "Crazy Stone", and ask for the eighth row." ”

"Okay, it's going to be a ...... in time"

Turning on the internal system of the theater, the secretary looked at it, suddenly covered his mouth, and then looked back at the manager: "The eighth row is sold out......"

Sold out?

Fang Kai didn't think much about it, veterans of watching movies knew that the eighth row was comfortable to watch: "Then the seventh row." ”

"The seventh row is also sold out. ”

The secretary seemed to know Fang Kai's question, and took the initiative to say: "All the seats in the sixth row to the ninth row are full, and now only the fifth or tenth row is left......

Fang Kai's eyes widened slightly.

He was not angry that he didn't have a good position, but was shocked that the movie tickets for "Crazy Stone" sold so well: "How much attendance is this?"

"Uh...... 70%？”

Glancing at the screen and saying this unexpected number, the secretary was also stunned, as Fang Kai's secretary, she knew very well what this attendance rate meant!

Dark horse!

Fang Kai's breathing was a little shorter, but there was a clear smile hidden in his voice: "Give me a ticket now, the nearest show, wherever you sit, I will meet this dark horse in person." ”

……

Nearly two hours later.

Fang Kai had sweat on his forehead, trotted back to the office, the secretary saw him and was about to speak, Fang Kai directly interrupted the other party: "Let someone bring me the film schedule, and immediately improve the film schedule of "Crazy Stone......"! By the way, what do you want to say?"

“……”

Seeing that the manager was a little emotional, the secretary's voice was a little empty: "The movie tickets for "Crazy Stone" at eight o'clock in the evening ...... sold out in advance...... Some viewers are in a mood......"
