"Hello Miss Zhang, are you looking for Director Lu? He's by my side, I'll let him answer the phone." ”

The three of them were about to go out to eat when Kun's mobile phone rang, and the call was from Zhang Xiaoya.

In fact, Lu Yi originally had a mobile phone, but because he emptied his family after making a movie, he sold the mobile phone.

In addition, he has nothing to contact recently, and various media are promoting what small color screen mobile phones will be released soon, so he has not configured another one for himself for the time being.

When you have money, you can directly get the best mobile phone when the time comes, and then pin it to your waist, how face-saving it is!

"Will there be more theaters? Well, I know, thank you, Miss Zhang. ”

Zhang Xiaoya was obviously also paying attention to the case, and after knowing the result, she immediately called Lu Yi and asked Lu Yi to prepare for the expansion of his movie screening theater.

Zhang Xiaoya doesn't need to take the initiative to push this, as long as the news comes out, the bosses of those theaters will probably take the initiative to find her.

If you have money to earn or not, that's a fool.

In addition to talking about the theater, Zhang Xiaoya also talked to Lu Yi about other things. For example, having a meal together, and what are the preparations for Lu Yi's new movie.

The meaning is obvious, Lu Yi is going to be popular, and it is also very beneficial for Zhang Xiaoya to close the relationship in advance.

"It doesn't really make sense to call me or not, I know I can make more money anyway. ”

After Lu Yi hung up Zhang Xiaoya's phone, he shook his head and said to Huang Bo.

"Director Lu is right!"

Huang Bo rolled his eyes after hearing this and replied, what he said was right, but he always felt that there was such a smell in his words?

"Director Lu is going to make a fortune! When the box office is in hand, at least we have to be invited to the Diaoyutai Restaurant for a meal." ”

Kun Ding and Zhang Xiaoya guessed correctly, the reaction of the theater chain was faster than they imagined.

In the afternoon, soon the number of screenings and theaters of "Twelve Angry Men" expanded to the whole country.

Five shows a day, more than 1,000 theaters play together, this hand, is almost like a blockbuster.

After all, those theater owners are not fools, a movie with good quality and reputation, and there are hot opinions across the country.

No matter how you look at it, this time is the best time to make money, and if you don't increase the number of shows and screens, won't you have trouble with money?

Even "Reservoir Dogs" with Kun Town has also been stained with a lot of light, not only has the number of screenings increased, but there have also been a lot more theaters.

It was the beginning of the era of cinema at its finest.

Now there are more than 3,000 theaters in the entire empire, with nearly 30,000 screens, which are mainly concentrated in the first and second tier cities in the central area of the empire.

Elsewhere, there are less than a hundred in West Kunlun and Yindi'anzhou, as well as in Jinzhou.

This number does not match the size of an empire, a large country with a wide territory, and the world's largest economic, technological, and military strength and population, and the consumption potential of the film market is far from being tapped.

Therefore, in order to stimulate the further development of the film industry and meet the growing spiritual civilization needs of the broad masses of the people.

The country has built three major film and television bases in the south, Loulan and the East China Sea, plus the original imperial capital and Bingcheng, forming five major film bases in the southeast, northwest and northwest.

Immediately, the film market across the country was rectified, a large number of theaters were built, and the number of domestic screens increased by 2,000 in just one year, and the number is still increasing.

According to the empire's plan, the empire's future theaters will cover the fourth and fifth tier cities, West Kunlun and Yindi'anzhou, and the Golden State will be covered, and the number of theaters will probably become a terrifying data growth.

In addition to this, the importance of copyright was determined, film censorship was relaxed, and a film classification system was introduced.

The multi-pronged approach has brought incomparably strong confidence to all those who are engaged in the film industry in China.

"Do you think the people of Huayi Company will not recognize our contract and swallow our box office directly?"

After the box office came out on the third day, Lu Yi couldn't calm down, so he went to Kun Town early in the morning.

At this time, the single-day box office of "Twelve Angry Men" soared directly to more than five million a day, and the total box office was already six million.

Even "Reservoir Dogs", the total box office at this time is almost close to one million.

Such a large sum of money scared Lu Yi.

What's more, the box office is so high, and no one talks to them about sharing, and he can't be sure.

"No, they don't have to ruin their friendship with two directors who are about to rise because of a movie. They are film and television distribution companies, and they all have their own mature set of operating systems. After the movie is drawn, you will know when the box office is divided. ”

When he said this, Kunmachi himself was not quite sure.

There is a saying in Huaguo that wealth moves people's hearts.

It's only been three days now, and the two movies have brought nearly seven million box office, and if they can be released for a full month, the box office of these two movies is estimated to exceed 100 million.

You must know that before this, their movie didn't do any publicity.

As far as the money for movie copies and posters is concerned, it is really not much money for the box office of the current movie.

"The box office share will not be available until the movie is drawn?"

Lu Yi was still worried about whether the money could come to him, but Kun Town's words immediately diverted his attention.

"That's right, generally speaking, the movie is roughly half a month to a month to draw, and if the movie is good, there may be an extension. It is estimated that the box office share of your movie will be settled in at least a month. ”

Kun Town glanced at Lu Yi curiously, and didn't understand why this guy didn't even know this, because he had always regarded this guy as his predecessor before.

"No, I remember that some film and television companies settle and share by week, according to the number of points at the box office. Why is it so long now? A month from now, what will I eat next?"

The little money that Zhang Xiaoya compensated for was a bit expensive in the past few days, and after sending some home, Lu Yi didn't have a few dollars left in his hand.

If you have to wait for a month or more, you will have to drink the northwest wind again.

After listening to Kun Town's words, Lu Yi was dumbfounded, he always thought that the box office could be settled every week!

Because he searched on the Internet, many movies are settled and shared in this way, and he has also confirmed it.

So I've been very indifferent, leisurely waiting to settle for myself.

It's only a week, and I can still wait for this little time.

Now it's gone, what to do?

"It depends on the person, generally the kind of director with a guaranteed box office has this treatment, and only those old film and television companies will have this treatment, nothing else, haven't you looked carefully at the contract we signed with Huayi Company?"

The contract indicates the approximate time, and this Kun town has seen it.
