Chapter 112: Intense (4/5)

"The Legend of the Hongmen Banquet" was withdrawn for a week, and Liu Yifei didn't have to run the publicity over there for the time being...

In other words, the highest benefit of a drama "Source Code" is, of course, Lu Xiaoran, but his status has already arrived, and it is difficult to continue to improve...

Anyway, no one will say that he is one of the four major directors in China.

It's Lao Liu, a "Source Code", whose value has doubled!

Her popularity is at the national level, and she has three national dramas, "The Family of Gold Powder", "The Legend of Sword and Fairy", and "The Legend of the Condor Heroes"...

If it weren't for the fact that 'national sister' was not popular back then, she would have been the first generation of 'national sister'...

After moving to the film industry, his popularity gradually dispersed, and two works in three years...

The drama "Source Code" directly pushed her to the top of the new generation of actresses!

Let's put it this way, "The Legend of the Hongmen Banquet" was originally mainly promoted by Li Ming + Feng Teddy, but now it has become her, and the draft is all "The crew is rainy, and it is not lost for 11 hours", "Twisted by the blower to the hair", "Self-taught pipa"...

The circle is so realistic!

The three major actors of "The Legend of Hongmen Banquet": Li Ming, Huang Qiusheng, and Zhang Hanyu are not as popular as Liu Yifei's current popularity!

Lu Xiaoran is quite happy, there is a girl who runs a roadshow with him, it is better than being alone - Wan Qian has only been with him for three days, and "Liu Rushi" has been launched...

......

Sian.

The "Source Code" roadshow arrived at Lu Xiaoran's hometown.

Lu Xiaoran is now Xi'an's business card.

When he arrived in his hometown, Lu Xiaoran worked hard, and even sang "Decent" on the spot - he rarely sings...

Not only that, but he also gave face to an interview with a local TV station.

It is a small program called "Entertainment News List".

I did a special interview.

"Recently, there is a Chinese-language movie, "Source Code" swept the box office market, 7 days after its release, the mainland box office was close to 400 million, and the global box office was close to 500 million, we are honored to invite the director and starring Lu Xiaoran to talk to us!"

“... Hello everyone, I'm Lu Xiaoran. ”

"Is there anything you want to say about the box office?"

"When I was shooting, I didn't think about it so much, what we thought about was to save the capital first, because this type is considered a zero foundation in China, and only if the capital is preserved, can we continue to do it in the future... I really didn't expect the audience to be so enthusiastic, it's really like what Mr. So said, the audience is generous, of course they see our shortcomings, just don't say it, choose to forgive!"

"Many people on the Internet say that your achievements at the box office have surpassed Feng Xiaogang and Zhang Yimou, what do you think?"

"Filmmakers from different eras can't be compared together, they can only work together!"

"There is another question, many people think that "Source Code" should be released for the Chinese New Year, what do you think?"

“... In fact, China Film also suggested that I release it in December, and they think that any mature film market will definitely appear after experiencing full market competition... But this year's Lunar New Year files are saturated, and the investment in "Jinling Thirteen Hairpins" and "Dragon Gate Flying Armor" is definitely higher than that of "Source Code", if they don't return, then I'll retreat!"

"And I always feel that the most important thing now is to fill the genre vacancy of domestic films, this is the meaning of "Source Code", I think the significance of "Source Code" itself in the market is more than it gets a billion box office!"

......

Hotel suite, Lu Xiaoran is eating noodles.

Liu Yifei was swiping his mobile phone, looked up and suddenly asked:

"Director, many people on the Internet say that "Source Code" can exceed a billion box office, what do you think?"

“... Difficult... It is estimated that it will drop to 20 million in a single day next week!"

"Why?"

Lu Xiaoran eliminated the noodles, wiped his mouth, and continued: "It's mainly because of piracy, and the scene of our movie is not big enough, and the theme is not vulgar enough!"

Liu Yifei didn't quite understand: "Aren't we a 3D movie?"

“... But the projection equipment in many movie theaters is not good, and it will be the Chinese New Year file soon, and we can occupy a month's schedule, which is already very good..."

"Then how much do you think it will be at the box office?"

"800 million should be fine, no matter how high it is, you have to see the quality of other movies..."

"But "The Thirteen Hairpins of Jinling" said that he could pass one billion..."

"Zhang Weipin's words can only coax children, don't believe him..."

Zhang Weipin's original words: The investment in this film is 600 million, and the Chinese box office is expected to be 1 billion, which is not a big problem for me. According to the 40% profit, I can have a profit of 400 million, and the remaining 200 million will be collected from the overseas market, how big is it?

Hanging explosion!

Liu Yifei puffed up his mouth, and then asked: "Director, has your next play been selected for the Berlin Film Festival?"

“... How do you know you?"

"Sister Tangtang told the media that day..."

“... It's a literary film, and I'll go to Harbin next month to shoot it!"

"Do you think I'm suitable?"

Liu Yifei blinked, staring at him...

Teacher Lu has just had a full meal, what is the so-called food and clothing...

Swallowed: "... You're a little bit worse, the movie is about sex and violence, and the scale is too big..."

"Are you acting?"

“... I don't act, I'm a lot worse!"

"Forget it..."

......

"Source Code" collected another 150 million the next weekend, and it was released for ten days, with a cumulative box office of 540 million...

A bunch of people preach that the age of a billion is coming...

Then, on the 21st, the single-day box office of "Source Code" dropped to 21 million...

The single-day box office for four consecutive working days was around 20 million, and the cumulative box office in the third week was 680 million...

surpassed "The Great Tangshan Earthquake" and topped the box office champion of domestic films.

Many people expressed regret that 680 million in 17 days, 1 billion must be hopeless!

Lu Xiaoran thinks it's normal, no matter how popular the movie is, it will be weak as the release time increases...

Although "Source Code" is under the banner of a conceptual science fiction movie, it is still essentially a commercial film with popcorn attributes.

can win 540 million in ten days, 680 million in 17 days, which is already the result of Lu Xiaoran's movie reputation realization for more than so many years!

Moreover, November is not yet a Chinese New Year!

Lu Xiaoran knows very well that "Source Code" is not likely to get a billion box office.

Even if Orange launches a ticket supplement of 40 million, it is useless!

He's already happy, though...

Broke the box office record of domestic films...

Four years after the director's debut, he finally ascended to the throne of the first box office of the year - a domestic film.

By the way, "The Female General of Yangmen" was released on the 18th, and the reputation is sparse, even if there is Zhang Baizhi + Ren Xianqi...

Five-day tour of the cinema...

After five days of release, it was directly lowered, and the cumulative box office did not reach 10 million - not enough for Zhang Baizhi's salary!

Not only that, "East Becomes West 2011", which was released on the 24th, was also swept by the tail of "Source Code", and could only be relegated to second place...

"East Becomes West 2011" is a bad movie, so I won't say much about this.

On the 29th, "The Legend of Hongmen Banquet" was released...

The box office on the first day was 21 million, and successfully pushed "Source Code", which was released for 18 days, to the top of the box office...
