Chapter 841: Calf Protector (2-in-1)
A good film may not have a good box office.
Good hype often yields a good number.
Gan Jing is now well versed in it, but he still regards the former as the foundation, a hype may bring a considerable box office, but fans and audiences are not fish, just seven seconds of memory, they will be very cautious next time facing a bad movie director or actor.
No one's money is blown by the wind.
"Killer's Memory Act" premiered on Saturday night, December 5th, a day when many people are ready to relax after a workday.
"What's the film today? Huh? "SpongeBob SquarePants: Marines"? "Sudden Stars"? "Incredible"?"Durala's Marriage?"Murderer's Memory?"Daughter-in-law, what do you want to see?"
"The sponge is too naΓ―ve, and it must not be good-looking if it is starring Yang Mi, and it is incredible that it is Wang Baoqiao, Xiao Shenyang, and Dapeng...... Ah, Wang Baoqiao has fallen. The name of the murderer is terrifying, so let's do it. β
"Okay, two tickets to Durala's Wedding Story, a bucket of popcorn and two glasses of Coke. β
"Hey, wait, wait, "The Memory of the Murderer" is starring Forrest Gump, as well as Huang Bo and Zhou Dongyu, watch this one. β
"Okay, two copies of the Killer's Memory Act. β
"I've been too busy lately, I haven't paid attention to Forrest Gump's new film is this, he and Huang Bo must be acting online, beating all kinds of students, I don't know what story it's about. β
Similar conversations take place in different movie theaters across the country, and even with the loudest publicity, it is still difficult for all fans to know the situation, and movies are a part of life, but not the whole of life.
However, compared with this type of fans, the vast majority of people bought tickets in advance and waited for admission when they saw the announcement, and the pre-sale of the movie's own platform, Maoyan's online ticketing, Alipay and WeChat's respective channels, these share figures are actually quite a good part.
It also proves once again that Forrest Gump, Huang Bo, and Zhou Dongyu can carry the box office of the movie, especially the former two.
At half past seven in the evening, theaters in different places were released simultaneously with the premiere in Beijing.
When the 100-day red logo came out, many viewers sent out a knowing smile, and many of the good films that impressed them in the past two years were marked with this logo, and sometimes it was difficult to remember what movies they had watched for a while, but the roses that kept appearing seemed to imply the word "good film".
When the opening passed, Huang Bo appeared, accompanied by background music, and the viewing atmosphere quickly fell to the point where it was in line with the positioning of suspense films.
"I kind of regret buying a ticket to come in. β
"Hey, Liu Taimin is a bad person. β
"Yoo Tae-min turned out to be a bad cop. β
"Forrest Gump and Zhou Dongyu are in love, and there are clips again. β
"Li Jinxiu is sick again, I'm, Huang Bo really looks like a neurotic!"
The two fought. β
"What??? Liu Taimin is good??? Huang Bo is a bad guy!!"
A single dog viewer who watched the movie live has the habit of whispering while watching the movie, but fortunately, all his self-talk is moving with the turn of the film's tight links, which barely makes the person next to him resist the urge to do it - after all, the words are similar to the heart.
When the lights in the theater are turned on, many people have a trance that time flies, followed by a discussion of the biggest reversal at the end of the movie.
"In the end, I was a little confused, is Liu Taimin dead?"
"The paragraph just now seems to be Li Jinxiu's fantasy, he always fantasizes about protecting his daughter, but in fact, he is the biggest villain. β
"This shot is interesting, and it shocked me at the end. β
"Once you start, you can't stop!"
The audience who came out of the screening hall was discussing the plot of the movie just now, and they passed by the audience of different theaters.
Movies aren't all there is to life, but two hours sitting in the theater is all there is to it.
β¦β¦
Gan Jing finally breathed a sigh of relief after finishing the premiere, feeling that he had completed another job, he did not immediately pay attention to the box office results, but participated in the literary symposium in the capital as he said in front of the media.
What is the Literary Symposium for?
Most of the content is used for nonsense, and there are peers, government officials, market experts, and literary critics.
Gan Jing is puzzled by some identities, and he really can't figure out what they do, but since they all participated in the symposium, they still have some identities.
He didn't like to participate in this kind of event in the past, but this time it was mainly to send a signal to the outside world.
At the symposium, Gan Jing tried his best to control his desire to speak, and did not want to disturb the high-minded talk of a group of people too much, but in the end, after being asked several times in a row, he still said something a little disappointed.
"Literary and artistic work is done, according to me, it's okay to talk about it occasionally, but practice still needs to be practiced. β
Gan Jing talked to death, and no one asked questions later.
After a day's symposium, he received a notice of the box office results on the way back.
From half past seven on Saturday night to six o'clock on Sunday night, even if it is a complete day, the box office result of "Killer's Memory Law" is 180 million Chinese dollars.
That's a pretty good result.
Gan Jing looked at the number on the screen, and after a simple calculation, he felt that the box office in the first week should be enough to return to the cost, so the next thing is the profit time, however, when it comes to the 18th of this month, there will be Huang Bo, Chen Kun, and Shu Qi's "Looking for the Dragon", according to Huang Bo, he feels good about acting.
From the 5th to the 18th, it is two weeks, and if you keep the capital in the first week, I don't know if you can get 200 million at the box office in the second week.
Gan Jing knows the weaknesses of this type of suspense film.
Similarly, after filming his first suspense film, "The Killer's Memory", he was also thinking about how "Sunburning" should avoid this weakness in the box office market.
The former uses the whole film to create the biggest reversal for the audience at the end, and the plot of the latter should think about how to pull the audience's attention while letting the audience guess the final ending.
It's not easy to get, but it's worth trying.
Gan Jing's mind was spinning around something that should only be considered by the director, and the next moment, he suddenly remembered the director of this movie, well, I don't know if the director Cao Baoping is good to get along with.
The nanny car arrived at the villa.
Gan Jing didn't get out of the car and didn't enter the living room, just sat on the deck chair by the pool, and began to use his mobile phone to swipe Weibo, he directly searched for movies or his own name.
He found that the relevant comments recently published on Weibo are actually more realistic to reflect the audience's attitude.
After about forty minutes of brushing, Gan Jing saw a lot of praise, but it is true that many people said that they were not interested in such a theme, and they were ready to watch it for free when resources were released on the Internet.
This kind of is more helpless.
Seeing that the mobile phone was about to run out of battery, a call from Zhou Dongyu suddenly came in.
"Congratulations, Uncle Gan, another movie has been successful. The girl first gave congratulations.
"It's okay, decent results. "Gan Jing's standard is a little higher.
However, Zhou Dongyu's purpose in calling was not for this matter, she said the main topic after chatting for a few sentences: "Uncle Gan, it was the Golden Horse Award on the 20th, did you get invited?"
"Huh?" Gan Jing said in his heart, "It seems to be." β
Under normal circumstances, he will receive invitations from major film festivals, but due to the schedule and arrangement, he does not attend much......
"Uncle Gan, is it a normal invitation?" Zhou Dongyu asked again.
"What do you mean?" Gan Jing didn't react for a moment.
The girl then asked, "Is there an invitation to the award presenter?"
It turns out that this is the case, Gan Jing understands that Zhou Dongyu has won an international actress award so far, and that time was the award he gave her.
In this case, in order to create an atmosphere, the official will often invite people with special significance, at the beginning, he was a Chinese who had just won the Cannes Best Actor, so he would find himself to present the award to Zhou Dongyu, who is also a Chinese.
Now, she is her boss and her eldest brother, if she is found to be awarded the actress, the implication is still more obvious.
"I remember there was an invitation, but it was certainly not a guest presenter. However, has the list of award presenters been announced? There is still half a month to go. Gan Jing's thinking came to his senses, this time the Golden Horse Award of Baodao was shortlisted for "July and Ansheng", and Zhou Dongyu had some hope.
Zhou Dongyu's tone was slightly disappointed: "It hasn't been announced, but I think a big guy like you may have received it in advance or has inside information." β
Gan Jing smiled dumbly: "If there is, I will definitely tell you." Well, the Golden Horse Award, since they are all shortlisted, I won't blow the wind in the media, otherwise if I really win, others will definitely say that there is my factor. β
Although this "July and Ansheng" does not quite match Gan Jing's aesthetics, it is indeed the book that Zhou Dongyu received herself, including the funding injection of Bairihong, which was followed up after she determined the next step.
If she can win the award, this movie will be the faintest trace of whooping red since her debut, except for "The Love of the Hawthorn Tree".
Zhou Dongyu didn't know if she could win the award, but she wanted this award in her heart, not only in her acting career, but also in her personal psychological expectation of getting closer to Uncle Gan.
If, if you are more greedy, the award is awarded by Uncle Gan himself, it will be the best!
Zhou Dongyu hung up the phone, she didn't get the answer she wanted, but she still had an idea.
"700 million, you come here, I'll discuss something with you. The girl called her agent.
After she completed the announcement of "The Memory Law of the Murderer", the schedule was temporarily empty, and the recent period of time is mainly to study the script of next year's film, the hero Xiao Nezha.
"Dongyu, what's wrong? I'm blowing the box office with someone else. "700 million is from the media, because this name has a relationship with Bairihong, and finally succeeded in becoming Zhou Dongyu's agent, and it has been a year or two for a while, and the two get along very well, and some of her thoughts about Zhou Dongyu are also in the palm of her hand.
"You've been sending out some press releases in the past two days. Zhou Dongyu thought about it and said his thoughts, "Let's just say that Jinma intends to invite Uncle Gan to be this year's award presenter." β
"Eh, has it settled? It's a good thing!" 700 million slapped his thigh, very excited.
"I don't know, but I want him to participate in the awards. Zhou Dongyu glanced at the agent.
700 million: "Uh......"
She asked tentatively, "Never from the company's channels?"
Zhou Dongyu immediately said: "Of course not." β
Qi Yi coughed and said slowly: "That's the case, if you go through the company's channels, even if the Golden Horse Awards are not under pressure, but after this matter is known by the boss, he will know that you want him to be the guest of honor, and after Brother Gan knows, in terms of his ability, he speaks, will the Golden Horse Awards not give face? It's not a trophy for nothing, it's just a win-win thing like going to the award." β
Zhou Dongyu's eyes lit up, this kind of thinking, well, everyone who is an agent is quite dark-hearted.
She patted her agent and said appreciatively, "Okay, just do what you say." β
700 million took the order and left.
Zhou Dongyu thought silently for a while, and then picked up the mobile phone to send a congratulatory message from a group of peers, Uncle Gan has Uncle Gan's circle, of course she also has her own circle, after all, it is a well-known flower in China.
β¦β¦
In the news in the media, Gan Jing didn't notice the press release issued by his company, but was attracted by another thing.
The Hong Kong Film Awards and the Golden Horse Awards have always been two important awards in China, the former is usually held on the first Saturday of April and the shortlist is announced in February, and the latter is held in November or December and the list is announced in October.
However, before the list is announced, many entertainment film and television media will have some guesses about the shortlisted works, some of them guess accurately, and some of them guess more casually, which also involves the use of some relationships.
Any film festival is to feed a large number of related voters, and the more accurate guesses in the near future can attract the attention of the audience, which can be called the existence of the vane of the awards.
After getting the 310 million report card of the first week of "The Killer's Memory Law", Gan Jing shifted his energy to the preparation of the company's mythology series, and he had to have a rough understanding before the end of the month and then flew to the United States.
At this time, Yang Lan of the New Media Department found Gan Jing with the public opinion analysis summary of the public relations department.
"Boss, the public opinion of the Academy Awards is not very good for Zhou Dongyu. Yang Lan held a thick stack of analysis materials.
"What's the matter? The competitor is too strong?" Gan Jing didn't hear clearly, thinking that it was the Golden Horse Awards, and recalled it a little, "I haven't watched "Assassin Nie Yinniang", and I haven't watched "Farewell in 100 Days" either. β
As soon as Yang Lan heard it, she knew that the boss was talking about the recent Golden Horse, and hurriedly corrected: "No, it is the Hong Kong Film Awards, which have not yet been announced." In the predictions of several media outlets, "July and Ansheng" was not shortlisted. β
Gan Jing was a little surprised: "None of the finalists were shortlisted? Who is there this year?" He felt that Zhou Dongyu's performance in this play was still okay.
"Tang Wei, Miriam Yang, Zhang Aijia, Lin Jiaxin. Yang Lan reported a few predicted names.
Gan Jing was not familiar with the two names, thought for a while, looked at Yang Lan, and asked, "Hong Kong actor?"
Yang Lan shook her head and said, "Two Hong Kongs, two treasure islands." "Tang Wei became a Hong Kong actor through the policy, and he has always been protected by Hong Kong forces.
Gan Jing frowned: "This is a little too protective of calves." β
He shook his head again and again: "Not good." Not good. β()
