Chapter 122: Fan Effect (1/5)
On December 26th, a working day, "Back to Twenty Years Old" received 23 million in a single day, still occupying the top spot at the box office, while "Jinling Thirteen Hairpins" and "Dragon Gate Flying Armor" fell to 14 million...
More than 10 million!
In the four days of its release, the cumulative box office successfully exceeded 100 million, and the word-of-mouth and box office were far ahead!
At present, the cumulative box office of "Dragon Gate Flying Armor" is 290 million, and "Jinling Thirteen Hairpins" is 320 million...
I don't rule out the possibility that "Twenty Years Old Again" will surpass one of them!
Not only that, Orange's official Weibo announced: The Korean version of "Twenty Years Old Again" also dominated the domestic box office rankings during the same period...
A dual-purpose book, a double harvest!
'The Japanese version, the Thai version, and the Spanish version of "Twenty Years Old Again" have been negotiated with the producer, and will be launched soon, and the American version is being discussed...'
In fact, the so-called dual-use book is a script, and China and South Korea each make a version, but the film cannot be distributed overseas.
Anyway, this is a small production, the Korean version, 800,000 moviegoers can make a profit, and 1.4 million moviegoers will be rolled down in the first week...
And the movie doesn't expect any overseas revenue.
The main income is the domestic box office...
The Chinese side, that is, the orange image script, and the filming experience, fixed 20% of the copyright income...
If it weren't for the fact that the overseas branch of Orange hadn't been established, there would be no need to share the cake at all...
The news came out, and the box office was stimulated again!
What is it called?
Cultural Export!
......
"Cultural output can't be talked about, "Back to Twenty" is actually similar to Hollywood's "Back to 17 Years Old" script concept..."
Lu Xiaoran put down the newspaper in his hand and continued: "It's just that I turned the male protagonist into the female protagonist." ”
"Tsk..."
Zhong Lifang said: "But your idea can bring at least hundreds of millions of income!"
"Not only that, haven't you seen our company's stock price limit?"
Lu Xiaoran became interested: "... I really don't understand the stock market, is it possible to increase the stock price as long as the box office is a big hit?"
Zhang Jin: "Not necessarily, "If You Are Honest Do Not Disturb 2" also sold well, and Huayi's stock price did not rise much!"
Brother Song added: "So, word of mouth is also very important!"
"Zhang Weipin was beaten and hurt, and now he doesn't speak!"
“... He thought that if he hired a bell, he would be able to sell films overseas... How can it be so simple!"
"However, "The Thirteen Hairpins of Jinling" is indeed a good movie, but it is not suitable for the Chinese New Year!"
"Well, this movie is a little too tragic... I heard that "1942" is also next year's Chinese New Year!"
“... I have already told Xu Zheng that I will make a sequel to "People in Embarrassment". ”
""The Thirteen Hairpins of Jinling" signed up for the Oscar, will it make a big comeback?"
“... You call Jiang Yanming yourself, she is in North America, ask her about the situation of "Jinling Thirteen Hairpins"!"
Jiang Yanming is the chairman of Huashi Film and Television, a company specializing in the overseas promotion of Chinese films, and has been stationed in North America and Australia for a long time.
Behind Huashi are three private listed companies, Orange, Huayi and Bona, which jointly invest and support.
Chinese films are really marginal themes overseas, and it is impossible to expect Haitui Company to promote them, so you can only throw money at yourself...
Lu Xiaoran originally wanted to buy Huashi, and then throw money into it little by little, since Huayi and Bona also have the heart, let's do it together!
When you are free one day, make a "Crazy Rich Asian" ("Crazy Rich Asian"), and a drama will directly make Huashi up!
"Jiang Yanming said that the release of "Jinling Thirteen Hairpins" in North America has encountered great resistance..."
"Normally, the release of Spielberg's "Empire of the Sun" was hindered back then, not to mention movies like "The Thirteen Hairpins of Jinling", which positively depicted the war of aggression against China!"
“... You mean the right-wing forces on the Japanese side?"
"Yes!"
Zhong Lifang nodded, signaling that she knew...
"How much box office do you think "Twenty Years Old Again" can get?"
“... According to Orange Ticketing's prediction, there should be 350 million!"
"Not only that, there should be another wave on New Year's Day three days..."
"It won't really surpass "Dragon Gate Flying Armor"... We also have an investment in that movie!"
"The story of "Dragon Gate Flying Armor" is also too bad..."
"Xu Ke has been a little obsessed with special effects in recent years!"
"If the movie only has technology, it's better to just play video games!"
"Bona is so disgusting, the sailor bought it, and he really wants to step on "The Thirteen Hairpins of Jinling" to death!"
“... should sponsor him to pay the producer fee for "Embroidered Spring Knife"!"
The investment in "Dragon Gate Flying Armor" is 35 million US dollars, and it is obvious that the domestic box office will not be able to recover its cost!
Overseas copyright income cannot be distributed to other investors.
However, Xu Laowei should be happy, he got in touch with South Korea's special effects company Digital Creative, successfully became a shareholder, and often plays special effects blockbusters in the future - helping to support the survival of Korean special effects!
"Embroidered Spring Knife", including the scheduled "Sword Rain", was handed over to the orange special effects in the later stage, and Xu Lao Wei was very unhappy...
Lu Xiaoran said: "It's normal to surpass "Dragon Gate Flying Armor", Tang Yixin and Wang Kai have accumulated too much goodwill through "Why Sheng Xiaomo", and there are many fans, two brushes, three brushes, and directly brushed up the box office!"
“... That's what you call the fan effect?"
"Yes... But I still think that the basis of the fan effect is a good movie, and this year's Chinese New Year file is a light-hearted and pleasant film like "Twenty Years Old Again"..."
Zhong Lifang thoughtfully: "No wonder you dare to set "Back to Twenty Years Old" as a New Year's file!"
“... Huh..."
Lu Xiaoran is not an immortal, and the unpredictable prophet can only be based on what the husky knows.
He just thinks that "Twenty Again" is not a big investment, and the atmosphere is very suitable for Christmas...
The most important thing is that the South Korean side is scheduled for Christmas, and both sides will be released at the same time to achieve the greatest effect!
......
Three days on New Year's Day, "Twenty Years Old Again" won another 120 million box office, and after 11 days of release, the cumulative box office exceeded 300 million...
Now, no one doubts that "Twenty Years Old Again" can surpass the total box office of "Dragon Gate Flying Armor"...
What does the outside world think of "Twenty Years Old Again"?
Yu Dong said:
Hong Kong directors have rich production experience and star resources, and they hold together, but they don't know what mainland audiences like. They took out everything at the bottom of the box and slapped it all over again. For example, "Yangmen Female General", "Hongmen Banquet", "Guan Yunchang", "New Shaolin Temple"... The routines and experiences they succeeded in that year invested a lot of money to shoot, and 200 million yuan was a threshold, but the mainland audience still didn't accept it.
The future still depends on young directors in the mainland!
Weibo proposes the concept of fans!
"It's because of Tang Yixin's fans that the box office of "Twenty Years Old Again" on the first day is close to 20 million!"
The former one is not easy to get, who knows which young director can blossom?
But the latter one is very interesting, it turns out that Tang Yixin's fans boosted the box office!
That's simple, let's find Tang Yixin or an actor who is almost as popular as her to film!
