Chapter 742: Zero Point Box Office
"Oba, hurry up, we're going to be late!"
"Oh, it's not even eleven o'clock. ”
"Then we'll have to hurry, too. ”
Hearing Yun'er's constant urging, Su Yan was also speechless for a while.
Today is the 26th, and on Friday, he and Cha Tae-hyun, Cho Jung-seok and the assistant directors brought their families, and a total of more than a dozen people made an appointment to have a meal together, and the time was after the premiere.
Strictly speaking, it should be a supper, and Su Yan will invite guests, but in order to check the situation more completely and add some fun, Cha Taehyun also came up with some tricks.
There were a total of 8 groups of people, and he chose eight different theaters in Seoul, the nearest one is in the city center, which is also next to the meeting place, about a 10-minute walk, and the farthest is an hour faster without traffic jams, which is equivalent to saying that the unlucky guy has to eat at 2 o'clock in the middle of the night.
There is a saying that the person who proposes will be injured, and after the on-site lottery that was advertised together the day before yesterday, Cha Tae-hyun himself got the farthest option, and squatted in pain for half a day speechless.
Yuna was the luckiest and got the location in the city center.
However, there was still a small episode during the period.
Because it was the tail end of the summer vacation, it was a weekend, coupled with the pervasive publicity, and I didn't see any excellent films for half a month, which made fans enthusiastic, except for the first three rows, all the positions were sold out, like Yun'er drew the prime location, and it was basically full.
This is naturally very good news, but how not to be discovered has become a headache for several celebrities, because it is not winter, and it is impossible to wrap it tightly.
And in the theater, the distance between each other is so close, if you wear sunglasses and a hat, it is estimated that it will make others more curious.
Su Yan didn't have much to do about it, so he could only say that he was going in a little later.
"Report, I'm in place, no one has found out for the time being, over!" Cha Tae-hyun.
"Report, my wife and I also sat down, but she was recognized, and she is currently being watched, help!"
"Report, I went to buy Coke popcorn with a big bang, and took the initiative to talk to the next door, I don't know who I am at all, sad, over!"
While waiting in the lobby, Yuna took out her mobile phone and watched the group chat, having a lot of fun, while her hands began to type.
"Report, Oba and I are currently on standby, ready to go in ten minutes late, over. ”
"Wow, you guys are cheating. ”
"I didn't expect that. ”
"Ahem, ahem, Yuna is very smart. ”
Seeing that the situation was similar, the two didn't buy snacks and walked in directly.
Good guys, with the bright light of the big screen, you can see that the screening hall of more than 300 people is full of people, even the front position.
"Oba, there are so many people!"
After finally finding her position, Yuna excitedly looked at the front and back, left and right, and whispered.
"Well, a lot indeed. Su Yan was very satisfied with the attendance, of course, he also knew very well that this was only a special case, and only the most prosperous places in Seoul would have such an effect, such as the suburbs or other places, and it would be thankful that half of the midnight performances could be performed.
Just as the two of them were adjusting their moods and planning to enjoy a sweet date quietly, the young lady sitting next to them suddenly exclaimed.
Su Yan turned his head and found that the other party was staring at him in a daze, covering his mouth with one hand, his expression was very surprised.
"Shh!! I'm Su Yan, but please be quiet, don't disturb others watching the movie. ”
The girl nodded, his Korean was really as bad as it was on the show, but he finally understood it.
"Director Su, can we take a photo together when we go out?" The young lady came together with two people.
Su Yan pondered for a while, which made the little sister very nervous, afraid of being rejected.
"I have a better proposal, when it's over, we'll have an actors' dinner, and if you have time, I'll invite you to join us. ”
The sudden surprise made them clench their fists and tremble, and they asked several times in a row: Really?
After being sure, it's like a nod of garlic.
Su Yan is also targeted in doing this, firstly, it is a fan benefit, since it is fate, it is not a big problem to have a meal together.
In addition, it is also doing word-of-mouth, young Koreans like social software very much, think about it, I went to the movie and met the director and heroine, and as a result, I was invited to have a supper with all the actors, which will definitely become a hot topic, which can be regarded as a way of hype.
Then Su Yan will definitely not take the initiative to ask the other party to send something like the circle of friends, the original intention is to express gratitude, since you recognize it, I will not deny it.
Yun'er looked at all this and smiled, and took out her mobile phone: Report, Director Su is exposed, and two fans will be brought to participate in the meeting, Zhou knows.
"Hahaha, Director Su 666666 was actually recognized before Yun'er. ”
"We have to come on, the directors are more famous than us, so sad. ”
"There is no limit to the amount of Korean beef in the evening, and my daughter-in-law and I have dinner every time. ”
"You'll have to wait, I'll be an hour sooner. ”
Half an hour later, Su Yan was very relieved that the fan lady finally stopped secretly glancing at the two of her and focused on the movie.
For the entire 90 minutes, although there was no standing ovation from the audience at the premiere, there were exclamations, laughter, and exclamations one after another.
Su Yan's location happened to be not far from the aisle, so he took a good look, and out of more than three hundred people, only two people went out, and they came back soon.
With ten minutes or so left in the movie, he turned around.
"We're going to go out first, there's a Jacos in the parking lot downstairs, and the license plate is KLS357. ”
"Why don't I come with you. The young lady picked up the bag.
"Don't finish reading the end?" Su Yan was surprised.
"It's okay, I'll brush it again tomorrow. ”
"Okay, let's go. ”
The audience sitting in the back row heard the conversation of several people, it was very strange, this ending is the most exciting, why someone would leave at this time, I really can't figure it out.
took the elevator down to the parking lot, and the two young ladies dared to speak.
"Really, is it really Yun'er and Director Su!"
"Hahaha, have you always been suspicious?" Lin Xiaoyun said with a smile.
"No, no, no. The ponytail girl shook her hands: "I just sigh that I am too lucky." ”
"Are you college students?" asked Su Yan as he sat in the co-pilot.
"Well, a sophomore in Ewha University, can you take a picture first, I said I met you in the class chat room, but the children didn't believe it. Another girl with long straight black hair asked cautiously.
"Absolutely!"
Saying that, Yun'er and Su Yan turned their heads at the same time, smiling and comparing scissor hands.
"Click!"
"Hahahaha, the children are crazy, and they envy the two of us for being able to go to dinner with you. ”
"I feel like I'm going to buy a lottery ticket tomorrow, I'm so lucky. ”
Hearing that the young lady was chatting happily in the back, Su Yan also smiled at Yun'er.
Because it would take some time for the others to come, Yun'er drove slowly, and even so, she was still the first to arrive.
And this barbecue restaurant is normally closed, but it happens to be a store opened by Cha Tae-hyun's friend, so he is waiting for this crowd here.
It didn't take long for Lee Sang-geun and his wife to arrive, and after greeting the two female college students, they sat there with a heavy heart, looking at their phones from time to time.
Su Yan knew why.
He's waiting for the box office report for the midnight show, which normally comes out at half-past two or three.
"Don't worry, it must be good!" Su Yan patted him on the shoulder and comforted.
Immediately afterwards, Cao Zhengxun, his wife and other relatively close personnel arrived one after another, leaving only Cha Taixian and his wife.
"Why don't we start first, we're all hungry. ”
Su Yan's proposal was agreed by everyone, the soju beer was boiled, and the best beef sizzled on the grill.
"Well, can't you all wait for us a while?"
After another twenty minutes, the old car and his wife pushed the door in.
"How's it going?
As soon as he sat down, he asked.
Li Shanggen shook his head and was about to speak, when his mobile phone suddenly rang.
The noisy crowd immediately quieted down, but in the middle of the night, his wife was on the side again, so it couldn't be a harassing call.
"Hello!" he picked up with a slightly trembling hand under the gaze of everyone: "En, okay, I know, hard work." ”
The call ended in less than thirty seconds.
Su Yan stared at each other closely, the corners of his eyes seemed to twitch slightly, but his expression did not change, and he couldn't tell whether it was good or bad.
"How's that?" Cao asked urgently.
"Ahem, what, the box office doesn't really matter, right? ”
"Director, don't do this, just say it. ”
"Hurry, hurry, hurry. ”
"Don't sell it!"
The two female college students also understood why this group of celebrities gathered here in the middle of the night, and they also became nervous.
"First of all, it's over 10,000. ”
Li Shanggen still wanted to act, but he couldn't hold it back.
"Eighty-seven thousand !!"
"Oh!!"
More than a dozen people were stunned for a moment, and then they all began to knock on the table, and the plates and chopsticks slammed into each other.
Cha Tae-hyun stood up and shook from side to side and began to dance,
Cao Zhengzheng whistled, and Li Shanggen raised his arms and shouted
...
"Bang!"
The shopkeeper opened a bottle of champagne: "Taehyun asked me to prepare, and I can finally open it with peace of mind." ”
Su Yan excitedly hugged Yun'er and turned around twice, and it was successful!
It's no wonder that everyone got carried away, and although the midnight show did not represent the final box office, it was a guiding light.
As long as it can break more than 40,000 that night, it can be regarded as a successful movie, and 80,000 is a hurdle, and all works that break 10 million must at least reach this number.
Cha Tae-hyun's "Walking with God" has a cumulative box office of 14.4 million, and it broke 10 million in 16 days of release, and his vigil box office is also in the early 100,000s.
Eighty-seven thousand is like a shot in the arm for everyone.
You must know that after several years of development, the number of big screens is a lot more than at that time, according to the zero point box office is normally one-fifth of the whole day, at least the first day can reach 450,000, and the highest in Korean film history is the 650,000 viewers created by "The Battle of Mingliang", but he is also the overall champion.
Cheers !!
Everyone celebrates with a glass of wine.
