On the morning of February 16, Ying Tianfu. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info

Also less than ten o'clock in the morning, Zheng Yuan got last week's box office rankings.

At that moment, his face instantly sank.

Although there were some psychological preparations in advance, the name in the first line was too dazzling, and the box office figures behind it were too amazing!

So much so that his eyes fell on that line of box office, and he never took his eyes off it for a long time, and he didn't even go to see his "Escape Hero" ranking for the first time, and how much the box office was!

48.16 million!

Over the years, as one of the most stable actors in the domestic film industry, Zheng Yuan has successively starred in more than 20 movies.

In the early years, especially before the price increase of movie tickets in 93, everyone's box office was generally low, but in that era, he already had a box office of nearly 40 million masterpieces, and then the collective price of movie tickets rose, and the domestic box office market has always been soaring, and the movies he has made in the past seven or eight years, as long as they are commercial films, there is no box office less than 50 million! There are even two masterpieces that break 100 million!

However, even so, he is known as the "most reassuring actor" in the domestic film industry, but he has never won such a high first-week box office!

After watching it for a long time, he raised his hand and loosened his tie, turned his head and asked Fang Zuotong, the agent next to him, "Have you broken the first week record of Director Zhao's "Shoubi Nanshan"?"

Fang Zuotong shook his head, "No, it's just a few hundred thousand! ”

After a pause, he said in a deep voice: "If this movie can get a little more canvas and scheduling rate at the beginning, it is estimated that it will be no problem!"

Zheng Yuan nodded and loosened his tie again.

Finally, he still looked down.

"Escape Hero", box office 27.77 million! Four weeks after its release, the cumulative box office was 71.31 million.

With a sigh, his fists clenched, he released them again, and sighed again.

No more anger!

If he was still full of anger and dissatisfaction when he first received the theater to adjust the canvas and film schedule, seeing this box office figure of 48.16 million, thinking about the fact that this movie is already the third in the history of the box office in the first week of the domestic film box office list, somehow, I feel a little relieved.

Because...... In the case that the resources everyone got from the theater operators were basically the same, he was no longer an opponent at all, and he was ahead of others by nearly 3 million on the first four working days of this week, but in the three days of the weekend, he was suddenly opened up by more than 20 million yuan!

This is no longer a question of who has a few more canvases, a few fewer canvases, or whose film scheduling rate is a little higher or lower, which fully shows that whether the other party relies on Li Qian's personal appeal or the quality of the movie itself, in short, this box office is already a phenomenon!

Yes, it's not that I'm too bad, it's that the other party is too good!

And helplessly, this sentence is not self-comforting!

In fact, if you do the math, you got 71.31 million in the four weeks after its release, and this box office is good enough!

Next, I have signed a guarantee agreement with many theaters, which can ensure that my film will be released for at least two weeks, and there can also be a certain guarantee on the canvas and film arrangement, 85 million is at least, and 90 million is also very hopeful.

If you can make a small explosion in the next two weeks, maybe ...... You can also see the threshold of breaking 100 million!

The summer file looks lively, but the emphasis is on winner-takes-all, Hollywood blockbusters, plus all kinds of domestic productions, large and small, will share the box office in the past, and in the end, only a few will win!

Most of my past films were released in the summer, which is very different from the current box office, which is very different, unless the film has a particularly good reputation, it will be a big hit, and it will exceed 100 million, otherwise, 80 million to 95 million is probably the grade I am in, it is difficult to go up, but it can't fall under normal circumstances.

Merely...... With the sudden explosion of "My Sassy Girlfriend", which has formed a huge gathering effect on the box office, it is obvious that all other movies of the same period will be greatly affected at the box office, so this box office is still slightly lower than expected, at least the idea of monopolizing the Valentine's Day schedule and forming a concept of "Valentine's Day schedule belongs to Zheng Yuan" is basically not achieved.

Even, the outside world may think that "the Valentine's Day schedule belongs to Li Qian"!

However, after calming down, this result can be reluctantly accepted!

Of course, unwillingness is certain, envy, jealousy and hatred are also certain!

However, it is such a big hit, and it is the third in history, what can you do in the face of such a film?

Do you continue to be angry, angry?

What's the use?

Merely......

After looking back and forth at the numbers of 48.16 million and 27.77 million for a long time, he still said: "You can help me make a call over there, Zou Wenhuai, or Mr. Qi." I...... Don't fight!"

Fang Zuotong looked at him, and after a while, nodded, "Okay." I'll fight!"

The two were silent.

Then, Zheng Yuan turned his head and asked him, "Have you seen that film?"

Fang Zuotong said: "Yesterday, I went to see it, and we went together." ”

Zheng Yuan raised his hand and patted his head, "Oh, yes, you still called me at that time...... Is it really pretty?"

Fang Zuotong pondered for a moment when he heard this, and then said: "Maybe now that this box office comes out, many people will think that this should be Li Qian's personal star effect, plus the special time of Valentine's Day is just linked to the title of this movie, so it has pulled up such a high box office, but after I watched it, I ...... The first two factors, there must be, no one can deny it. But in my opinion, this film should be more than a big hit this week, and next, it may not be as fierce as this week, but the box office is not too bad!"

After a pause, he said: "How can I say it! Love, and comedy, he grasped these two points very well, and it was a matter of course that they were popular." The name Li Qian was hung up, just a temptation!"

Zheng Yuan's eyes shrank for a moment, and then asked, "...... do you expect Can it break 100 million?"

Fang Zuotong thought for a moment and nodded, "Personally, I don't think it's a big problem!"

Zheng Yuan lowered his head.

After a while, he took a deep breath, turned his head to look at Fang Zuotong, and said, "Help me find a place, I'll go and see if it's a good way to see this film!"

Fang Zuotong was stunned when he heard this, "Then today's event ......?"

Zheng Yuan waved his hand, "Push, all push!"

After a pause, he said: "The box office is already like this, in the next two weeks, I can get 20 million, but if it's not good, it's more than 10 million, no matter how much I toss, the effect can't add much, the next activities, you can help me push it!"

Speaking of this, he turned his head to look at the glass wall of the building opposite outside the window, thought for a moment, and said slowly: "In the next film, I must get more than 100 million! I haven't exceeded 100 million for two years!"

Fang Zuotong looked at him with a deep gaze.

After a moment, he nodded, "Good!"

…………

On the same day, Chengdu Prefecture.

Lu Ping collapsed on the sofa, his eyes closed, and he hadn't opened them for at least ten minutes.

Everyone looked at each other, but no one spoke.

And at this moment, no one seemed to want to read the printed paper of the box office rankings, so it had to fall into the hands of Lu Ping's assistant - he held it like a hot potato.

It reads very clearly: "Hello Woman!", with a weekly box office of 22.44 million, ranking third, and a total historical box office of 32.66 million!

In fact, this result is okay!

Two weeks after the release, although there is a Valentine's Day schedule included, after all, the first week of release is after the Spring Festival, and at that time, movie theaters across the country are deserted to the extent that the door is crowded, and in fact, although "Hello Woman!" won the box office list in the first week of release, the box office was only 10.22 million!

For the movie "Hello Woman!", the investment is just over 20 million, the break-even line is about 55 million, and it got 32.66 million two weeks before the release, as long as the follow-up box office does not fall sharply, it means that this movie can basically guarantee a return on its cost when it is released for four weeks, and even start to make a small profit!

With two weeks left at the box office, no matter how much, it will be a steady net profit!

And with Lu Ping's word-of-mouth, with his film's ability to consistently stabilize the box office, and with the word-of-mouth evaluation since the release of "Hello Woman!", is it possible for this movie to stage a big dive?

No way!

Therefore, directing a purely commercial film for the first time can already ensure that he can make money, and it is even possible to earn one or two million, just this result is enough to make the next Lu Pingshui rise!

It's hard to say anything else, next time we talk about cooperation, don't care who you talk to, the director's salary of three million is the start, and even the box office commission can be mentioned!

At least since their debut, the three public films, including literary films and commercial films, have all made money, and the audience's reputation is still unusually good, winning the box office list and the best director of the Great Wall Award - can not only win awards, but also make money, this qualification, this reputation, in terms of Lu Ping's age, is simply too strong!

Therefore, no matter who is asked to evaluate, you must admit that Lu Ping is very good!

But on the contrary, there is an even more bullish one pressed on the top of the head!

But on the contrary, defeating that person and overpowering that person is even more important to Lu Ping than making money, a good reputation, and everything else!

In terms of movies, box office, and markets, "Hello Woman!" won, and it can be regarded as beautiful!

But for Lu Ping personally, he would feel like he had lost!

And it was a terrible loss!

In the first week of release, when the situation was not too favorable, the other party actually bucked the trend and exploded in three days over the weekend, which not only wiped out the previous disadvantage at the box office on weekdays in one fell swoop, but even greatly shook off the competitors in the same period, with an advantage of more than 20 million, leading by a large margin!

One is 48.16 million, and the other is only 22.44 million!

More than double the lead!

The problem is, it's still the other party's film debut!

Gao Lanlan frequently gave Xia Xiaoyue a look, and in the end, Xia Xiaoyue was the first to speak: "Husband, it's okay, although I haven't been able to overpower him this week, but Sister Lan has also said it, you also said that he relied on the fan effect and star effect, and when this wave of box office explosion passes, by next week, he will definitely be completely revealed! But we won't, you are famous for your stable box office, let's go for a long time! Who wins and who loses, you have to wait until you get off the line to see the total box office...... Sister Lan, you said I was right, right?"

Gao Lanlan smiled, turned her head to look at Lu Ping, whose eyes were closed, and said: "Yes, Xiaoyue is right, don't be too angry, Li Qian is the most popular star in China after all, and it's Valentine's Day, and his group of young fans are all going to cheer, and it's not surprising to get this box office......

Halfway through her words, she saw Lu Ping suddenly raise his hand and wave.

The eyes were still not open, but the meaning of the gesture was clear.

Gao Lanlan was halfway through her words, and immediately stopped.

"Husband......" Xia Xiaoyue called him timidly.

Lu Ping still didn't open his eyes, but said tiredly: "Go out, I want to be quiet alone for a while!"

Several people looked at each other, but in the end, everyone got up one after another.

Lu Ping's assistant was originally holding the box office rankings, but when he walked out a few steps, he remembered again, walked back two steps like an electric shock, and carefully put the piece of paper on the coffee table.

When everyone went out, and when the sound of the door closing sounded, Lu Ping on the sofa couldn't help but sigh.

After a while, he finally opened his eyes.

Pick up that piece of paper and look at it again - yes, the data can't be wrong, 48.16 million, vs. 22.44 million!

1st place, 3rd place vs 3rd place!

It's very dazzling!

Moreover, his box office in the first two weeks combined with 32.66 million, which is not as good as the other party's three weekends!

Imagine ...... It's not a long way to think, just a few days ago, when this movie was first released, although even I had to admit that this movie was very good, but when I saw the attendance rate of the other party, I still deceived myself in my heart that this week, I should be very hopeful to suppress the other party!

But the result ...... It's ironic!

Not only did he fail to suppress him, but he couldn't even suppress "Escape Hero", which has come to the fourth week!

Also, calm down and think about it, the quality of that movie is there, maybe changing an ordinary person to be the director still needs a slow process of word-of-mouth dissemination and fermentation, but with the words "Director Li Qian" there, and with his strong appeal to fans, this movie is simply natural to save the slow fermentation process - even if it needs to be fermented, it also refers to a wider range of word-of-mouth fermentation!

Under tremendous pressure, people can't help but think narrowly and biasedly, even the smartest people do. But once he calmed down to think about it and think about it, at this moment, Lu Ping actually felt that he had nothing to say about losing - the weekly box office gap of more than 20 million, even the quality of the film that he felt was quite good, as long as he was not blind, as long as he was not stupid, what could he say!

It's just that at this moment, recalling the words he said to Lu Lingxi arrogantly at that time, he couldn't help but feel extremely embarrassed in his heart-

When I return to Beijing to meet, how should I face her?

***

It may be that I am too tired to run back and forth, and during the annual meeting, I drank alcohol, stayed up late, and chatted, resulting in the two days when I came back, and the state was not very good, and I felt that I couldn't keep up!
