Chapter 17: Disaster
The release cycle of a movie is generally one month, and in this month, the most important thing is the box office of the first two weeks.
Tang Yiyi put the schedule on the May Day holiday, and a week has passed by now, and the audience's enthusiasm for watching movies has almost been consumed.
But overall it's already pretty good.
The box office reached 70 million in one week.
Originally, Tang Yiyi wanted to see if he could find a way to stimulate the box office in the second week, so that it could reach about 90 million.
In this case, even if the remaining two weeks are not good, the income of 10 million box office should not be too much of a problem.
But after thinking about it, Tang Yiyi's small abacus missed the 512 earthquake.
That is, for the movie "Crazy Stone", the release cycle is only twelve days...
Twelve days of time at the box office wants to reach a small goal.
To be honest, it's difficult!
Tang Yiyi doesn't have this confidence at all...
After all, when such a big thing happens, who would be in the mood to go to the theater to watch a movie?
Not to mention the aftershocks that lasted for days...
All eyes of the whole country are on the disaster area!
And in the previous life, in order to mourn the disaster, he specially issued a document that no entertainment activities were allowed within three days.
This is tantamount to a serious blow to Tang Yiyi.
Thinking about it, Tang Yiyi didn't have any good way.
Can't you tell the florists that there will be a disaster in a few days?
You don't have to think about it, you will definitely be treated as a neuropath!
And after the incident, it is estimated that Tang Yiyi will be brought closer to the research institute for research...
It's scary to think about!
"Forget it, it's man-made, if you can't reach a small goal, you can't reach it..."
Tang Yiyi sighed.
I can only work hard to run the roadshow propaganda in the past few days.
Just do everything you can.
For the rest, leave it to fate!
So in the next few days, everyone was very surprised to find that Tang Yiyi was working harder than a few days ago when he was promoting the roadshow.
As for the reason, he was also prevaricated by Tang Yiyi with "hoping to achieve a small goal as soon as possible".
But the bitterness in Tang Yiyi's heart cannot be explained by outsiders...
As of May 11, "Crazy Stone" has grossed a total of 87 million.
It's hard to feel ...
Not even 90 million is broken.
After finishing today's roadshow, Tang Yiyi called everyone together and announced the end of the roadshow.
Everyone also breathed a sigh of relief, and sighed that it was finally over and they could take a good rest.
After dinner in the evening, before everyone left, they all congratulated Tang Yiyi in advance on the box office of his first movie.
But Tang Yiyi just accepted everyone's congratulations with a wry smile and didn't say anything.
I asked my assistant to help book a ticket to Chang'an.
Tang Yiyi rushed home overnight.
I entered the house in the dust, and it was already past eleven o'clock in the evening.
The parents who were about to fall asleep were a little surprised, and at the same time a little surprised.
After chatting with his parents for a few words, he went back to his room to rest.
For one night, Tang Yiyi couldn't sleep all night.
How to say it.
Although he is only a small person, he still hopes to do his part to help those who are suffering.
He's already figured it out.
Tomorrow, I will use the money I have earned over the years to donate to the disaster area.
In addition to the investment that has been used, there is also a series of money spent on the purchase of real estate and shops in Beijing, Shanghai and Guangzhou.
At present, he has more than 3 million funds at his disposal.
Although it may not seem like much at all in the eyes of others, before the box office share comes down, this is all Tang Yiyi's savings...
In addition to that, he also decided to become a volunteer in the disaster area!
In this way, Tang Yiyi fell asleep in a cranky thought.
I woke up the next day and finished breakfast.
Tang Yiyi worked in the study for a while.
I saw that the time had come to half past eleven.
I took my parents out for the reason of shopping.
There are also aftershocks in Chang'an...
And the fluctuations are not small!
This is also the reason why Tang Yiyi insisted on pulling his parents out of the house.
Anyway, it's really not safe to be around home!
He wanted some of his relatives and friends to go out and hide from him.
But I can't help it, I really can't find a good reason.
In fact, he was just overly worried.
Although there will be aftershocks in Chang'an, the impact is not very large.
When I go out, I just want to have peace of mind.
Wandering around the streets casually for a while.
Sure enough, the ground began to shake!
Tang's mother didn't stand firm all of a sudden, and almost fell to the ground, but fortunately, Tang Yiyi was quickly helped.
"Why do you suddenly feel a little dizzy in my head, the world is spinning..."Tang Ma said.
"There was an earthquake. Tang Yiyi replied.
"Huh, there's an earthquake?" said Tang's mother, a little incredulous.
But she suddenly noticed that everyone in the roadside shop looked very panicked and began to run out.
Some people also shouted "earthquake earthquake", and she believed it.
"It is estimated that the magnitude of this earthquake is not small, otherwise we would not have such a big aftershock..."Tang Dad said.
Tang Yiyi nodded.
In fact, it is.
8.0 magnitude earthquake...
Throughout the history of China, there have not been a few earthquakes with a higher number than 8.0...
At the same time, the Internet also exploded directly.
Journalists from media and television stations also began to rush to report.
That's when everyone knew.
It turned out that there was a disaster in Wenchuan, the capital of Shu.
At the same time, Tang Yiyi's mobile phone was also blown up suddenly.
Everyone knows that it is only a matter of time before "Crazy Stone" breaks 100 million at the box office.
But now it's okay, I don't have to think about it anymore.
However, Tang Yiyi seemed very calm about this.
After all, there was plenty of preparation in advance.
"Mom, Dad, I'm going to volunteer in the disaster area. Tang Yiyi said to his parents.
"No! can't go!" Tang Ma immediately stood up and refused.
"The Internet and TV stations have already reported that the 7.8 magnitude earthquake is there! You said that if you go, if there is another aftershock, what will happen to you and your father!"
"Mom, don't worry, I'll definitely take care of myself and come back safely. ”
"That's not going to work! I said I can't go, I can't go!" Tang Ma said resolutely.
It's understandable that mothers don't want their children to be in danger.
"Go! Dad supports you to go!" said Tang's father, who hadn't spoken for a long time.
"The surname is Tang! Is he your own son? If you don't follow me, stop him and let him go to such a dangerous place!" Tang's mother began to scold Tang's father angrily.
"Of course I know that he is my son, but I also know that he is a party member! As a party member, he should be like a soldier! Stand up when the country needs it! Do what he can!" Dad Tang said categorically.
Tang Yiyi was stunned for a moment, originally he was still thinking that his parents didn't agree, so he would find an opportunity to sneak away and then have a prelude.
But I didn't expect my dad to support him so much!
"Then if he donates a little more, he can also help the country!" said Tang's mother.
"Mom, don't worry, I promise to call you every day when I find a time to report my safety. Tang Yiyi said.
In the end, Tang Yiyi's mother who couldn't stand it, plus Tang's father, who has been supporting his son all the time.
In the end, Tang's mother got angry directly, and after leaving the sentence "What do you like!", she got up and left angrily.
"It's okay son, I should go to you, Dad supports you! I'll persuade her from your mother's side, remember to promise your mother's words, and call back every day to keep her safe." ”
"Yes, I see!"
