Chapter 435: Early Release

"Mr. Song, the box office of "God of Medicine" has exceeded 100 million, with an average attendance rate of 47%, far exceeding other films, although the Douban score has not yet been released, it is basically a five-star praise, Director Lu's movie has to be word-of-mouth and a box office hit!"

Li Tianyuan, the head of the distribution department, was quite excited to report the latest data to Song Ge.

Song Ge laughed when he heard this, and said: "Yes, I really didn't expect that he could make a movie with a tragic theme so popular!"

When Song Ge said him, he was referring to Lu Lin. Although he is only a producer, the final storyboard script was written by Lu Lin. Wen Muyu is more often an executor.

And the industry also regards "I Am Not the God of Medicine" as Lu Lin's work, just like the director of the "A Chinese Ghost Story" series is Cheng Xiaodong, "Smiling Proud Jianghu" is Hu Jinquan, and "New Dragon Gate Inn" is Li Huixuan, but without exception, they are all regarded as the works of producer Xu Ke. What you see is whose creative intentions are reflected in the film.

"Mr. Song, now the online call for early release is very loud, and the theater chain is also willing to schedule the show for us, do you think we are a day in advance?"

As a traditional off-season, there are generally no decent movies released in March and April. "Batman v Superman" is not very powerful, and suddenly a phenomenal film with an explosive reputation suddenly appeared, and the theater side was also very surprised and excited!

Song Ge thought for a while and said: "It's really not like a good movie released on April Fool's Day, okay, then a day earlier!"

After the decision, the distribution department of Longlin Pictures worked urgently, so that "I Am Not the God of Medicine" met with the audience in advance on March 31.

On the morning of April 1, the box office data was transmitted to Song Ge, of which a total of 176 million was collected in advance screenings, and 2.01 was reported on the first day of the release, and the cumulative box office has reached nearly 400 million.

What's even more awesome is the rating, Taopiao 9.8, Maoyan 9.7, Time 9.3, and even the always strict Douban.com has a score of 9.1, this is not an ordinary explosion, this is the rhythm of taking off!

And the attitude of the industry is also a one-sided praise.

Many artists who have participated in the screening publicity activities have come forward to express their opinions, director Gu Yiwei: "It is rare to have such a movie presented to everyone on the screen. With courage and conscience, face the reality and face the challenges we will all face. A movie with a conscience, a sense of responsibility, and love. Thank you. ”

Director Cao Baoping said on Weibo: "There are very few Chinese films that touch reality and resonate with this kind of film, we have ignored it for too many years, and finally such a film has come back." The degree of completion is high, and the actors are very good. This is a great inspiration for Chinese films. ”

And Huang Xiaoming, who is popular but has repeatedly acted in bad movies, @Lu Lin on Weibo: "The movie is so special that I will be called to play no matter how small the role is, I will be willing to pay for it in the future." ”

As a result, netizens frantically complained, "Fortunately, I didn't let Huang Jiao star!"

"He's going to act, and this film will drop at least one point!"

……

Bona Films, Yu Dong, looking at the news data on the mobile phone, there is a feeling of being in a different world. I still remember the class that explored "The Battle of the Deer" last year, when talking about the adaptation of "Lu Yong's Case", he didn't think that Lu Lin could shoot this film well.

is familiar with the shooting, but it is both box office and word-of-mouth, and it has only been a little more than a day, and the cumulative box office has reached 400 million. If it goes on like this, there is no suspense about breaking 2 billion, and it will reach 3 billion if it is not good.

In addition, I remembered the gambling contract I told Lu Lin, and I called after thinking about it for a while. The person who answered the phone was Lu Lin's assistant Gao Wen, saying that Lu Lin was filming. After hanging up, I waited less than ten minutes before I called back again.

"Congratulations, Brother Lu Lin, you won the Oscar first, and now you have made a 9-point masterpiece, this is to grasp both the box office and art!" Yu Dong said with a smile.

Lu Lin on the other end of the phone said: "The main thing is that the subject matter is good!"

Yu Dong: "What you say is too modest, if someone else shoots, it will either be too sad or too profound to be released, you have just the right grasp of this scale!"

Lu Lin said: "Who told me to always think about the box office first!"

Yu Dong suddenly lowered his voice and said: "I said brother, the box office of your film is at least two billion, and it is more than 700 million to you, and if you go to Xu Zheng's share, it will start at five or six hundred million, you won't really want to donate!"

He promised to donate 10 million, which is relatively nothing.

Lu Lin said: "My piece can be regarded as consuming the suffering of patients, and I have this ability, if I really want to say that I put money in my pocket, I can't get over it with my conscience!"

Yu Dong nodded, and said in a muffled voice: "Righteousness!"

Clinker Lu Lin said: "A movie with a box office of more than 2 billion yuan is rare for others, but for Longlin Pictures, it is also a commonplace, and it is nothing to donate the proceeds, just treat it as if it has never been filmed, and it is not particularly troublesome!"

When Yu Dong heard this, he was injured by a 10,000-point critical hit, "more than 2 billion box office", "mediocre", "not particularly troublesome", and only said after a while: "This B pretended to make me speechless and hung up!"

Yu Dong's depression is not mentioned, Huayi's Wang Zhonglei has also been paying attention to the information of "I Am Not the God of Medicine" in the past few days, sitting in the chairman's office this day, chatting with Wang Zhongjun.

"I really didn't expect that a movie with a realistic theme could have such a high box office and such a high rating!" Wang Zhonglei sat on the sofa and was amazed.

Wang Zhongjun stood in front of the floor-to-ceiling window, looked at the scenery in the distance and said, "I really didn't expect it, but it's a pity that we haven't cooperated with him!"

Wang Zhonglei coughed twice when he heard this, in fact, Huayi had the opportunity to cooperate with Lu Lin at the beginning, "Hou Yi Shoots the Sun", but he felt that the investment was too big and the risk was too high, so he rejected the project. Since then, the relationship between the two has been relatively poor, and there have been many box office wars.

"At the beginning, he said that he would donate all the proceeds of the film, do you think he will regret it?" Wang Zhonglei changed the topic.

Wang Zhongjun turned around and sat down and said, "Not necessarily, I don't think he's the kind of person who takes money very seriously!"

"According to what I said, we will donate this 10 million!" Xiao Wang always said with a smile, but he didn't take 10 million in his eyes.

Instead, he said with palpitations: "Hey, you said that he didn't want to make a trick on us, right? If he said how much he earned, we would donate as much, and at this time he couldn't admit anything!"

His bet with Lu Lin was a verbal agreement, and if this was the case, it would definitely not be able to count. Just like the original account sharing dispute in "Journey to the West", the supplementary agreement has been negotiated, and it is just one signature away.
