Chapter 198: Sugar Man's Step-by-Step Shock

"Nightclub" is scheduled to be released on October 31, which happens to be a Sunday.

In this time slot, there are really no movies that can be played.

Although there are blockbusters like "Resident Evil 4", the release time is late November.

And the box office of a movie basically depends on the first half of the month.

Take "Rain of Swords" as an example, it swiped 45 million box office in the first half of the month, and the final box office was only 48 million.

So, the real competitors of "Nightclub" are those movies that were released before November 15th.

Ning Hao has already figured it out, in this schedule, in addition to "Nightclub", there are eleven movies released.

There are literary films such as "Rizhao Chongqing", as well as kung fu films such as "Kung Fu Wing Chun" and "The Legend of the Knife".

Although kung fu movies have always been very popular, without the addition of big-name martial arts stars, the audience will not even look at it, let alone literary films.

The rest are movies like "Journey to the West" and "Tigers Are Marrying", which you know are bad movies as soon as you hear the names.

So after a round of exclusion, there are only two real opponents of "Nightclub": "My Sassy Girlfriend 2" and "Love Outstanding".

"My Savage Girlfriend" is a Korean movie released in 2001, and once it came out, it set off a bloody storm of "barbarism" throughout Asia, and all women were looking forward to being savage girlfriends for a while.

Even a salted fish like Liu Sisi is thinking about playing a role like a savage girlfriend in the future.

In the next few years, island countries and Hollywood have remade "My Sassy Girlfriend", and now the Celestial Empire has also filmed a version, and a 2 has been added, which is obviously frying cold rice.

Although it is undoubtedly a bad movie, it can't stand the strong appeal of "My Sassy Girlfriend", and maybe the audience will pay for it.

As for "Excellent Love", it is an urban love movie, with Yao Cheng and Liu Ye, the queen of the topic, as the protagonists, and Ning Caishen as the screenwriter, and it is estimated that the appeal is not small.

However, there is no director who can make urban love movies in the Celestial Empire, and the works made are basically out of reality and very embarrassing.

Therefore, a movie like "Love is Outstanding", even if it is not a bad movie, the quality will not be much higher.

Moreover, "My Sassy Girlfriend 2" and "Love Excellent" are still the same theme, focusing on urban and love, and the two are real competitors.

Analyzed in this way, a black humor comedy with a bit of suspense like "Nightclub" has almost no rivals.

Then, all that remains to focus on is how to promote it, so as to maximize the box office.

Three people with three cups of tea, the discussion was full of ideas.

Ning Hao said: "The magic capital, the imperial capital, Yuzhou and other ticket warehouse cities, they all have to go to the roadshow, let's go separately, it's no problem to seven cities in three days, right?"

Huang Bodao: "In addition to the roadshow, I think online publicity is also very important, and we recorded a lot of tidbits during filming, which can be released on Weibo." ”

Zhou Jin said: "You are right. ”

In fact, the name "Nightclub" was specially changed to attract the audience, and the original name was "Late Night Supermarket", which is not attractive when you hear it.

Later, it was changed to "Nightclub", and then the video of Hu Ge and Yu Qian singing love songs and Lao Hu stripping naked was sent out, which caused a bunch of fans to associate with Zhun Bao.

"There is also a screening ceremony, I plan to find a few schools in the imperial capital and the magic capital, and other cities will not do it," Ning Hao knocked on the table and said: "Anyway, our cost is small, we can earn 10 million, 20 million will make a big profit, and 30 million will be blood." ”

Huang Bo smiled: "You are quite confident, I don't ask for more, I will be satisfied if I can guarantee 20 million." ”

Zhou Jin pinched his fingers and calculated, if there were 20 million box office, more than 6 million would be distributed to them.

Coupled with the copyright fees of the Internet and TV, as well as overseas income, it is not a problem to make seven or eight million.

The total investment of "Nightclub" is 2.5 million, which is three times the rate of return.

Zhou Jin invested 200,000 yuan, and the converted salary was 100,000 yuan, so he could get close to one million? !

, in just a few months, he became a millionaire?

He worked tirelessly in his previous life, and he didn't save enough for a million in his life.

After settling the accounts, Zhou Jin's whole person became excited.

"What are you doing?" Huang Bo saw him smirking there, and said, "Have you dreamed of getting rich?"

Zhou Jin said excitedly: "It's a fortune, an old nose is rich." ”

"How much is the point of interest," Huang Bo hated that iron could not become steel, and said: "Are you satisfied with this achievement? ”

"Yes, yes, you always have feelings and dreams, and I am a layman. Zhou Jinhun doesn't care, he is beautiful himself.

In the future, I will be rich too.

……

Magic City, Sugar Man Company, President's Office.

Cai Yirong is very irritable now, even more irritable than when her aunt comes.

"Step by Step" and "Strange Man and Plum" are the two TV series starring Sugar Man, and now "Strange Man and Plum" has been successfully completed, but "Step by Step" has a big problem.

They have been preparing for this project for more than half a year, and they are about to start filming, but at this time, a news came out: Yu Zheng's new drama "Palace Lock Heart Jade" has been completed!

And "Palace Lock Heart Jade" is actually a Qing piercing theme, and it is also a history of Kowloon's succession.

Cai Yirong was very angry, and after investigation, she found out that when the project of "Step by Step Shocking" was established, there were executives in the company who leaked the bottom.

Yu's mother originally intended to shoot a Qing piercing drama, and after hearing about the filming plan of the sugar man, she immediately concocted a script with the same theme to seize the opportunity.

When Sugar Man was still filming "Strange Man Yizhimei", "Palace Lock Heart Jade" had already been started, and when "Step by Step" was launched, everyone was finished.

One step is slow, one step is slow, it is estimated that by the time "Step by Step" is broadcast, "Palace Lock Heart Jade" will be booming.

When the time comes, this plagiarism infamy, maybe you will have to memorize it with "Step by Step".

Thinking of these things, Cai Yirong couldn't wait to take a knife and slaughter the guys under her hands.

"Aggressive~" There was a knock on the door.

Cai Yirong raised her head from the table, straightened her loose hair, suppressed her anger and said, "Come in." ”

"Squeak~" sounded, and a big bald head came in.

"Mr. Cai," the bald brother came to her desk and whispered, "It's all figured out." ”

"How?"

The bald brother said: "Hu Nantai, broadcast at the beginning of the 11th year." ”

"So fast?" Cai Yirong fell into the chair as if deflated, "They are really rushing to seize the opportunity." ”

"So, what should we do?" the bald man asked, "Isn't it time to develop the conference and let the actors come over to set the makeup?"

"What kind of press conference is there yet?" Cai Yirong almost shouted, "Now that someone else has taken the lead, is it humiliating to open the development conference?"

The bald brother sighed in his heart, how could he succeed when he met such a boss who was not strict in his work and became angry when he encountered something.

In his opinion, the management of the sugar man is extremely chaotic, whether it is the establishment of film and television dramas or the management of artists, it is like a small workshop.

To put it simply, Zhou Jin filmed a "Nightclub", with more scenes than Hu Ge, and the salary was only 10,000 yuan, so let's fool the hell.

He saw with his own eyes that Zhou Jin was involved from pre-casting to post-production.

He was busy for months, and he only had 10,000 yuan, and he didn't believe it.

Obviously, there's something wrong with that.

He just saw through it and didn't say it, and the sugar man actually let it go, I really don't know if he didn't see it, or everyone was fooling.

But what does that have to do with him?

The bald brother smiled: "Actually, it's not necessarily a bad thing to let them take the lead." ”

Cai Yirong glanced at him, "You don't have to comfort me. ”

The bald brother said: "I'm not comforting, things have happened, it's useless for us to be angry, we can only find a way to reduce the loss first." ”

"How to alleviate it?" Cai Yirong finally came back to her senses and said, "You sit first." ”

The bald brother moved a chair and sat down, and said, "In my opinion, we are now frightened step by step, and there are two things that need to be done the most." ”

"One is a development conference, showing that we are the originator of Qing Piercing, and the other is just plagiarism, and then mobilizing public opinion to attract attention. ”

"As for the other one...... What's more, if we do it well, maybe we can turn defeat into victory. ”
