Chapter 256: Drink plenty of hot water
May 16th.
After fifteen days of screenings, "The Grim Reaper is Coming" has attracted enough eyeballs.
And on this day, the screening is finally going to premiere.
This is not the previous "Crazy Stone", or "The Night the Comet Commet", "The Grim Reaper is Coming" is not known how many times stronger in terms of actors, publicity and investment.
So on the day of the premiere, the film's scheduling rate accounted for 30%.
What does this mean?
This shows that as long as 10 movies are arranged in the theater, then 3 of them are "Death is Coming".
Everyone is a businessman, and the reason for doing this is naturally not because of Chen Xiao's face, but because after market research, I feel that "Death is Coming" can be worthy of this film scheduling rate.
And "The Grim Reaper is Coming" did not live up to the optimism of various theaters.
Before the release of the movie, there were more than 100,000 pre-sale screenings, and the pre-sale box office alone reached 90 million.
What is this concept?
This shows that as long as the movie is released safely, it is very simple to break 100 million yuan in the premiere.
And the box office of the premiere exceeded 100 million, which seems to be no longer as shocking as it was many years ago, but it is still a high honor for a movie.
That's a concept that gets off to a good start.
That is, because of the 90 million box office pre-sales, some software has also made a good estimate of the box office of this movie.
The estimated box office is 2.8 billion yuan.
The share ratio between "Bleach Reaper" and major theaters is 39%, if the box office can reach 2.8 billion yuan, then the box office should be about 2.6 billion, and the filmmaker's share should be about 1 billion.
Subtracting the 200 million invested, the net profit of 800 million is not bad.
Well, isn't that good?
It's a big profit, okay.
Don't think that movies are so easy to make money, and lose more money.
And what about Chen Xiao?
Half of the 200 million invested is his own, so he can get a net profit of 400 million.
In more than half a year, 100 million has become 500 million, this is money making money!
As for the 2.8 billion box office predicted on the software, Chen Xiao didn't have anything to say.
There are too many things that a movie can influence, and the prediction is just a reference, but even if it is just a reference, it will definitely be much more accurate than Chen Xiao's own prediction.
According to his estimates, even if there is a difference, it is a maximum of about two or three hundred million floats.
On the day of the premiere, Chen Xiao stared at the box office for a while.
The box office of the movie was refreshed in real time, and it didn't take much time at all, that is, when the movie went on sale, the box office of "Bleach Reaper" plus the advance tickets had exceeded 100 million.
It's less than an hour, and it's as simple as eating and drinking.
After breaking through 100 million, it will continue to increase by hundreds of thousands and hundreds of thousands.
After watching for a while, Chen Xiao went to sleep, but he was very tired for half a month, running around every day, and his eyes were black.
And the weather is also relatively cold these days, and the wind has blown for so many days, and there are still some colds.
Now that I'm finally able to get some rest, how can I not get a good night's sleep?
There's nothing you can't get a good night's sleep, and if you can't, get a little more sleep.
Then I slept late into the night, and was finally woken up by the sound of the phone.
Chen Xiao looked out of the window and ...... It's been a good night's sleep.
But who woke him up in the middle of the night?
Needless to say, the first thing that came to mind must be Wu Daoyi, but after looking at the caller ID, I found that it was really not.
The call was from Bai Yiyi.
"Hey, Yiyi. ”
"Hey, have you seen the box office of the premiere of your movie" Bai Yiyi's voice was quite noisy, and he didn't know what he was doing.
Chen Xiao said: "No, how much is the box office? But according to estimates, it should reach 150 million." ”
"Wait a minute. ”
As soon as she didn't say a word, Bai Yiyi heard that something was wrong: "What's the matter with your voice, do you have a cold?"
"It's a little, but I just woke up, my voice is a little muffled, it's okay. ”
"Really?"
Chen Xiao nodded: "Really, it's just that there has been too much cold wind blowing in the past two days, and it's okay to sleep well." ”
"Oh, then you'd better hurry up and rest, have you taken your medicine?"
"If you have a cold, you don't need to take medicine. ”
"Okay, then you should be careful and drink more hot water. ”
'Poof', Chen Xiao couldn't help laughing, who said that only straight men would say drink more hot water?
Bai Yiyi over there was still puzzled: "What's wrong?"
Chen Xiao stopped laughing, coughed lightly twice, and looked sad: "You don't care about me." ”
"No, I don't care about you. ”
"You have to know that people with colds are very fragile psychologically, and you must comfort them well, such as ......"
Before Chen Xiao finished speaking, he heard Bai Yiyi say: "I love you, dear, it's just that we are far away from you now, so you must take care of yourself more, and I miss you very much." ”
Chen Xiao swallowed a mouthful of saliva involuntarily.
Bai Yiyi was still talking in a deliberately coquettish tone in the paragraph just now, and this moment really charged him.
That's too lethal, isn't it?
Bai Yiyi asked sweetly, "So...... Wouldn't it be better for me to say that?"
"Uh...... Good...... Let's pass. ”
Chen Xiao hurriedly changed the topic: "Didn't you talk about the box office before?"
Bai Yiyi said: "Yes, I took a look at the box office of "Death" yesterday, and the box office of the premiere was more than 190 million, and it was 5 million to 200 million, and I also invested 5 million." ”
Chen Xiao smiled: "Look, believe me didn't let you lose money, right?"
"Hmm. ”
"So what do you want to do when you make money?"
Bai Yiyi had experience this time, and said with a smile: "Of course I invited my boyfriend to dinner, he made me so much money, of course I want to be rewarded." ”
Chen Xiao said: "I'll do the math for you, according to the momentum of the movie, even if the five million you invest is quadruple, it will be 20 million, this is 20 million, and you can be regarded as a rich woman." ”
"Bah, the rich woman is so ugly. ”
"That's Bai Fumei, look at you, you're white, rich, and beautiful, oops, who is so blessed, to have such a beautiful girlfriend as you, it must be open. ”
Chen Xiao spoke with a loud voice, and Bai Yiyi giggled.
"I guess you're also open, otherwise you wouldn't be so good, I'm the happiest person. ”
When ordinary people's flirting and scolding came to Chen Xiao and the others, it completely became an alternative mutual compliment, you praised her for being beautiful, and she praised you for being handsome.
And then both of them were happy in their hearts.
After being busy for a while, Chen Xiao hung up the phone.
At the end, he shot back: "Remember to drink more hot water." ”
