122. Advance ticket office
Public opinion on the Internet quickly brought Xu Shi to the fire, and both his actions and his words and deeds were appreciated by most people.
After the broadcast of the "Huaxia Public Welfare Tour" program, Xu Shi's popularity reached the highest, and he was directly on the hot search almost on the same day, and even approached the first place in the hot search for a time.
After all, he risked his life to save people, and it was so thrilling, how could people not like it, and at the same time, his words and deeds never took credit, and even pushed the benefits out for a time.
Many official Weibo or short videos of the fire department are promoting Xu Shi, and there are even many short videos that show their booked movie tickets.
After this incident, the corn side and the theater chain began to pre-sell the box office two weeks in advance, and in general, except for the Spring Festival stalls and some popular movies two weeks or a month in advance, the rest are pre-sold three days in advance.
Originally, the same was true of "One Man's Martial Arts", but after Xu Shi's incident, Maize and the theater quickly seized the opportunity and immediately advanced the pre-sale time.
At the same time, the corn side also began to send people to stare at the pre-sale box office, as long as the pre-sale box office results are good, then they will immediately go to negotiate with the theater chain again to increase the number of shows and time.
This is also the June 1st, there is no blockbuster and "One Man's Martial Arts", coupled with the current heat, the negotiation of corn is very smooth.
The movie has sold 7 million box office after a week of pre-sale, which is already a very good result.
At the same time, this also gave corn a bargaining chip, and the schedule and broadcast time of "One Man's Martial Arts" were adjusted again, and a lot of shows were added, and most of the time was at eight or nine o'clock.
This time, Zhang Yang and Sun Tu couldn't sit still any longer, and after they finished dealing with the matter at hand, they came directly to the capital.
Not only them, but many people in their circle came with them.
If Zhang Yang succeeds this time, then for these people, it is equivalent to finding a way to invest.
In recent years, their coal bosses have also begun to become cautious in their investments, unlike at the beginning, when they saw what they were investing in, and now they also need to be carefully examined.
It's not that they haven't invested in movies, and they even said that they have invested a lot, but there are very few that make money, and many of them lose money cleanly, and few of them return to their capital.
But this time is different, first Sun Tu's own investment in "Martial Saint Guan Yu" made a lot of money, and this time "One Man's Martial Arts" is now making a huge noise, and the probability of making money is very high, which makes them start to care about the film industry again.
And they also began to watch people get off the plate at this time, and Xu Shi was the person they temporarily selected.
However, before that, they also inquired about Xu Shi's situation with Zhang Yang, and they almost knew some of Xu Shi's temper.
Their previous method of arranging actors at will is difficult to work here in Xu Shi, but they don't care about it, as long as they can make money, who cares about this.
Soon the time is the last day of May, and tomorrow the movie will be released, and the advance box office at this time has reached 13 million.
According to the share negotiated between corn and the theater chain and the movie theater, excluding the 8.3% indivisible box office, the movie theater took the remaining 43%, the original 7%, and the remaining 50% is their share with the corn.
According to the agreement signed between Corn and Jingwumen, Corn took 10% of the remaining 50% as agency fees, as well as 2 million publicity fees, and the rest was all their investors.
To sum up, out of these 13 million, Xu Shi and they can now get more than 2.7 million, nearly 3 million.
This has almost recovered nearly three million investment before it officially starts to be released, and it is foreseeable that this film will definitely make a lot of money.
And in fact, this is basically equivalent to recovering the cost, because there are also network copyrights and other copyright benefits.
As soon as this data came out, not to mention Zhang Yang and them, the industry was shaken, and no one expected that such a movie with an investment of only 10 million was about to recover its cost.
Although there is a big reason for Xu Shi, if there is no publicity for him to save people, the box office of the movie would not be so crazy, but it can also be seen that everyone actually has a high degree of recognition for Xu Shi.
As long as the reputation of this movie is not bad, then it can be expected that in the next period of time, Xu Shi will become an instant hit with this movie.
Coupled with the desperate spirit of Xu Shi's films, the audience's recognition of Xu Shi will definitely be higher, and Xu Shi's becoming a box office call is no longer a dream, but something that is about to happen.
Some companies that were still waiting and watching could no longer bear it at this time, and secretly began to contact those under Xu Shi.
Even if Cheng Dapeng has clearly refused, he has received invitations from many companies, and the conditions are better than the other.
Cheng Dapeng is the most valuable actor in the team besides Xu Shi.
And judging from some comments on the Internet, Cheng Dapeng's popularity is not low, and most of his evaluations are positive.
If it is operated well, Cheng Dapeng may also have a certain box office appeal in a short period of time.
Although many companies are now starting to take the route of traffic stars to make quick money, it does not mean that they have given up their real box office appeal, but because the popularity of traffic stars has begun to decline slowly in recent years, they pay more attention to these people with acting skills.
Xu Shi's arrival has also opened a new door for them, and now many companies are taking the route of traffic stars, in addition to being able to make quick money, there are too few actors who really have acting skills, many are still old, and they have acting skills, but the conditions do not meet.
Now that Xu Shi is doing this, they see that action movies actually have a lot of money.
And action movies actually don't have much requirements for acting skills, just like Cheng Dapeng, there is obviously not much acting skills in the whole process, and they are basically with a straight face, but because of the wonderful play, the audience likes it very much.
However, Dapeng rejected all these invitations, and he had already made up his mind in his heart to follow Xu Shi and would not leave Jingwumen.
This also disappointed many companies, but there were also many people who expressed their intention to leave, which made them happy, not a monolith.
And when they knew that Xu Shi had only signed an initial contract with them, they were even more excited, and they seemed to be aware that Xu Shi was unwilling to force these people to stay, otherwise he would not have increased the liquidated damages of these people at this time, and he didn't even arrange a serious agent, only Liu Yan was in charge of all of them.
