To measure whether a film is good or not, in addition to its historical status and influence, the most intuitive thing is undoubtedly the box office.

The box office of 13 million on the first day, not to mention history, is not the best even in the same period.

However, "The Grudge" is an unpopular horror film, and there is no superstar lineup, and the investment is only more than 10 million, and the cost was recovered in just one day, which can be said to be the biggest dark horse in the first half of the year!

"The first day of box office recouped costs!

Wang Feng finally picked a very auspicious day when no celebrity would steal the limelight from him, and grandly released his latest album, but the headlines he dreamed of were occupied by the damn porter!

Over the past year, it seems that every time he wants to make headlines, the words "porter" and "Tianman" will come out in a very timely manner, kick him away, sit on the headlines, and enjoy the glory of thousands of people.

Wang Feng had to suspect that this was a conspiracy of the porter to blush at his fame and deliberately target himself!

first comics and games, and then animations on TV, as well as the endless famous songs that made Wang Feng envious, and now this girl has actually entered the film industry!

Youmu is mistaken, it's only been two years since I saw his name!

Every time, as long as He Chen makes a move, he will inevitably make headlines!

The media is not tired, Wang Feng is already tired of it.

Was it easy for him to make headlines last time? Is it necessary to target him like this? Does he have to fly a plane to hit the Pentagon to make headlines? Can he still have a good time?

Slander is slander, as a member of the entertainment industry, he is still very aware of the weight of this news.

Horror movies are niche. The amount of film is small. In such a situation, it can exceed 10 million. It's really rare. And this horror movie has no superstars to attract popularity, which means that its story is very scary - horror movies are not scary, no one watches them at all.

I used to think he was a children's writer who created children's works, but I didn't expect horror themes to be so powerful! Comics, animations, games, movies, songs, basically related to entertainment, he seems to know everything. Wang Feng mentally calculated, such an awesome person must need a large number of younger brothers who can observe words and deeds before and after the saddle. Do you want to go to him and make headlines?

However, if you want to talk about flaws, "The Grudge" also has a very big flaw.

He Chen gave an advertisement to "Love Apartment" at the end of the film.

"The resentful spirit learns the truth, "Love Apartment" is grandly opened, the address is XXXX, Ping'an City, and the appointment phone is XXXX. ”

This copper-filled word will destroy the atmosphere that has been brewing so hard at once.

Since the final ending of "The Grudge" is completely destroyed, it gives the feeling that there will be countless more stories to come. So many viewers who have been listening to the ending song Asamiko's version of "Bugs Flying" and waiting to see the easter eggs saw that what they were waiting for was such a thing. scolded their mothers one after another.

In addition to this unappetizing advertisement, it can be said. "The Grudge", as Tianman's first live-action cinematic comic work, has achieved a very great success.

not only makes Tianman more famous, but also proves to the film and television industry that a new script adaptation channel has been born, and Tianman also has greater confidence and expectations for the three theatrical versions that He Chen personally advised.

"Thirteen million on the first day!, it's not so fast to rob a bank! The boss is amazing!"

"It's not all ours, cinemas and producers are generally 64 points, and movie theaters are 60%. ”

"That's a lot! We've been short of money lately, and at this rate, isn't that equivalent to a half million a day?"

"The cost can be more than 10 million. Two days is the return on investment, and the other talent is profit. ”

"The medicine guide is also very powerful, and he can perfectly restore the atmosphere in the "Curse" comics. In the comics, we turn the pages by ourselves, giving a certain amount of relaxation and time to think, and the overall atmosphere is more depressing. In the movie, they all follow the director, they can't help us at all, the rhythm is even more tense, and my heart is pounding from beginning to end, as if it is about to jump out of my chest. ”

"That's natural, the boss's story, there's nothing unclassic!

Wang Feng put down his words on Weibo and said that he would bet on the box office of "The Grudge", saying that if the box office could exceed 100 million, he would kiss the donkey's butt. ”

"The box office broke 100 million? The theme of horror movies is not so easy to achieve. ”

"Hehe, do you despise the appeal of the boss, or do you despise the attractiveness of the boss's story? Of course, 100 million is not a problem, and now film critics generally believe that the box office of "The Grudge" exceeds 100 million. ”

“…… How can I look down on the boss? I'm just sighing, the cost is 10 million, and if the final box office can reach 100 million, it will be a 10-fold rate of return! What if the box office of those blockbusters is higher than ours? In terms of earning power, the horse can't catch up with "The Grudge"!"

"This is still in the hands of the boss, a relatively low-value work, if a few others are also released, hehe, I don't know if this year's box office list will be dominated by our Tianman. ”

"Let's not talk about the box office list, at least it can alleviate the financial pressure. ”

Zhou Zhe, Luo Hao and others are imagining a better future, and they are spending money every day during this time, and this is the first time they have seen profits other than comic book subscription income, and Zhou Zhe almost burst into tears.

It's a pity that he seems to have forgotten one thing.

"...... the "Curse" movie, it doesn't seem that we invested in it, right?" He Chen ruthlessly punctured the colorful bubbles and pulled everyone back to reality.

Everyone was stunned for a moment, and then it was as if they had a spring dream of having 72 virgins who could warm the bed, but after being woken up by Jiyou mercilessly, they were extremely depressed and unhappy.

Only then did they remember that it seemed that they personally sold the film adaptation rights of "The Grudge" to Tianhai Film Factory at a "high price" of 2 million, and the current box office of "The Grudge" will have nothing to do with them.

Speaking of which, the adaptation rights of horror themes are sold for two million, which is indeed a high price.

However, when comparing 2 million to 40 million, everyone feels pain in the flesh, heartache and egg.

However, if you think about it carefully, even if you turn back time and give them a chance to choose, I'm afraid they will still sell it - after all, they can only make zuò animation, although it is also a film and television work, but the process of making zuò is completely different, even if they want to make a movie, they can't make it.

And if the film adaptation rights were not sold, they would not know the drug director, and their ability is simply not enough to make a theatrical version, maybe Tianman's own animated film will not be able to appear.

When you think about it, this result does not seem entirely unacceptable.

……

After the release of "The Grudge", the business of "Love Apartment" became extremely hot.

However, due to the lack of expansion, there are very few rooms in "Love Apartment", and counting all the single courtyards bought by He Chen around, there are only about 20 households.

In the face of the sudden increase in customers, room reservations have even been queued for half a year.

The fact that a haunted house-themed hotel can become so popular proves the hidden curiosity of human beings. In order to repay the expectations of the fans who came to support him, He Chen specially trained a group of "Ga Coconut" with professional qualities.

"Tonight, follow your own team duty schedule, always pay attention to your own safety, keep a safe distance, don't be hit by customers, and don't attack customers. At the same time, remember the stupid mistakes you made before, don't run to the wrong place, turn off the used mechanism, and if you get stuck, use the walkie-talkie to call the nearest companion instead of asking the customer for help!

A group of young girls dressed in a uniform white cocoun-white dress lined up in three rows, listening to a woman in the same long dress at the front of the line.

"Understood!" the girls replied loudly in crisp voices.

The leader nodded in satisfaction: "Our slogan—"

"There is no scariest thing, only more frightening!" the girls shouted.

"Very good! Let the customer feel the sincerity of 'Gacozi'! If the customer is the most frightened, he will get a bonus of 100 yuan; if he sends a cry for help to the front desk or the police station, he will get a bonus of 200 yuan; if he successfully scares the couple into breaking up, he will get a bonus of 500 yuan! Okay, for the bonus!

"Trying to be scary!"

A group of girls put the things in their hands on their heads, and suddenly turned into a group of captive and hideous coconuts.

Then the leader gestured to the coconut to start moving, and in the hazy moonlight, countless white shadows streamed out of an old house, and then disappeared into the flickering lights of the house.

Outside the neighborhood, the lights are bright, the traffic is busy, and the red men and women indulge in the nightlife that has just begun.

And in this secluded community, the chirping of insects, cats, and gurgles echoed from time to time, and occasionally one or two miserable screams sounded, which added to the gloomy atmosphere of the place, and even the half moon in the sky seemed to be afraid of the coconuts in droves and timidly retreated into the clouds.

I don't know what the reason is, after a night in "Love Apartment", many seemingly intimate couples have broken up inexplicably. If there is no breakup, the relationship will be deeper, more tolerant and understanding of each other, and sweeter and happier in life.

At some point, a strange urban legend has been circulating among the crowd and has endured for a long time - if you stay in Love Apartment for one night, false love will be cursed and true love will be blessed!

As a result, for some couples who pursue true love, "Love Apartment" has become the final level to test true love.

"I'm going to live with you in "Love Apartment"!"

This has also become a very popular and romantic confession, and once won the most popular confession.

"Love Apartment" has changed from a horror-themed apartment of "The Grudge" to a "love" apartment. (To be continued......)
