Chapter 1217

"The Speed of Life and Death" opened a small-scale screening with 200 screens.

The box office on the first day was 1.26 million! This result is not good, but it is not bad.

However, it is definitely not possible to satisfy Yang Hao.

The box office of 1.26 million US dollars is actually not low, after all, it is a small-scale screening, and I have found some media and film critics to tout it before, and there are not too many publicity means, after all, Mina's side also has to consider how much publicity money to invest according to the performance of the follow-up screening.

At the earliest, in order to increase the publicity efforts, Lin Xiao even did not hesitate to pay the publicity expenses in advance, but now, with Ling Xiao Pavilion and Lin Xiao's status, it is obvious that he will not continue to use this way. Moreover, the Mina Group will not allow Lin Xiao and them to use this method again.

Don't look as if the publicity and distribution costs are paid in advance by the filmmaker, which can save Mina a lot of risks, but in fact, in terms of its own publicity budget, a distributor like Mina Group can make a profit, and it must give priority to the media under its own group.

Therefore, it is impossible for the Mina Group to agree to such a thing again.

Many people may think it is inconceivable that the other party wants to pay this fee for you, and you still don't do it?

In fact, this is really the case, because, for example, the publicity budget is 1 million US dollars, and this million US dollars is advanced by Mina Group, which means that this money will be deducted from the box office share of the film at that time.

Mina Group probably won't do much in this money, but don't forget that if Mina Group spends it itself, it will definitely give priority to the media under the group, which itself is self-produced and sold, and the profits will naturally come out.

It can be said that it is spending other people's money to pull business for yourself.

So, unless it's a movie that's quite unfavorable, otherwise, it's impossible for them to agree to this way.

Because of the preferential deduction method, unless the box office of the movie is really bad, there will be no loss at all.

Because it's all the filmmaker's money that is lost.

However, "The Speed of Life and Death" does have its excellence and uniqueness, so after the word-of-mouth of the media and film critics, as well as the audience's word-of-mouth began to spread, the attendance rate of "The Speed of Life and Death" began to rise.

The next day, "Speed of Life and Death" was still 200 screens, but the daily box office was reported to be 1.48 million!

That's a very good increase.

In the offline survey, Mina Group surveyed 1,000 viewers, of which more than 30% of the audience gave a rating of A, 22% of the audience gave a rating of B+, 21% of the audience gave a rating of B, 18% of the audience gave a rating of B-, and the rest gave less than 10% a rating of C.

The average rating has reached the level of B+, what does this mean? It shows that the reputation of "Speed of Life and Death" will not be bad.

Some people may think that the B+ rating is not high, but in fact, even the average rating of the previous "Air Prison" is only A-.

"Speed of Life and Death" is a foreign language film after all, so this result is already very good.

On the third day of the screening of "Speed of Life and Death", the box office increased to 1.88 million again! This time the increase is very large, and the single museum is close to 10,000 US dollars.

It can be said that it is a very good performance.

However, the box office did not continue to rise afterwards, after all, "Speed of Life and Death" is not the kind of real blockbuster, so this result is already very satisfactory to the Mina Group.

Next, "The Speed of Life and Death" will be screened on a large scale.

Mina Group won 1,600 theaters for "Life and Death".

This number is not as good as "The Hangover", nor is it as good as "Prison in the Air", but for a foreign-language film, it is already a very good release scale.

The first day of the expanded screening of "Life and Death" and the first day of the opening weekend in North America, Friday!

"Speed of Life and Death" won the first-day box office of 11.28 million, which disappointed Yang Hao and relieved him.

may be a little worse than "The Hangover" and "Prison in the Air", but it is enough to make other directors of the same level in China envious, jealous and hateful.

"Speed of Life and Death" reported 13 million again the next Saturday, and the box office trend is very normal.

On Sunday, the box office dropped slightly, with a box office of 10.21 million, but it also brought the box office of "Speed of Life and Death" to 34.49 million in the first weekend!

This box office actually won the weekly box office champion of the week.

This is something that Yang Hao didn't expect, no way, this schedule is the off-season, and other movies in the same schedule don't have any big productions, so this number is really not high, but it still won the weekly championship.

Coupled with the box office of more than 6 million in the previous screening, the box office successfully exceeded the 40 million mark in the first weekend.

When the news came back to China, the entire Chinese film industry exploded.

"Speed of Life and Death" is a hit in North America, which is not too heavy news, but don't forget that the combination of the previous "Hangover" and "Air Prison" is enough to make people think about it carefully.

You must know that before, Yang Hao's movies, in North America, could not even be screened on a scale of 100 screens.

Qin Gang is similar, Fan Wencheng is a little better, and there was a "Dangerous Couple" before.

And what is really terrifying is that these three movies not only won the top three Spring Festival stalls in China, but also collected more than 90% of the box office, which can be said to sweep the Spring Festival stalls and monopolize the Spring Festival stalls.

Then, the three movies got a very good box office in North America, and all this, what is even more terrifying is that these three movies are all written by Lin Xiao.

What does this mean? It shows that Lin Xiao is a person who can create international directors in batches, how can this make those domestic directors not moved?

That's an international director, don't talk about fame, let's talk about profits, since Fan Wencheng "Dangerous Couple" was a big success in North America, his director's salary has been stuck at about 20 million, and all of a sudden, it has risen to 8 million US dollars!

Yes, it's dollars! And now, even after "Prison in the Sky", Fan Wencheng's salary will definitely exceed 10 million US dollars, and he can even get a box office share.

Moreover, the right to speak has certainly been greatly enhanced.

The same is true for Qin Gang and Yang Hao, in the domestic film market, the salary of domestic directors of 20 million Chinese yuan is basically the ceiling.

Of course, there are also some top directors who can get some box office shares, but the key is that as long as there are blockbuster works overseas, then the unit of remuneration will be changed to US dollars, and it will increase exponentially all of a sudden, whether it is identity, status, or fame and fortune, it will increase exponentially, who can not be tempted? Who can not be envious and jealous?
