Chapter 604: Where to Sleep
"I just finished taking a shower and was about to rest, what are you calling me out for at this point?" I put down the hair dryer in my hand, grabbed a towel with one hand and wiped my hair, "If there is nothing important, I will go to bed, and you will rest early, it is already more than 11 o'clock, and the clock will turn soon, and you will not sleep yet?"
"Where can you sleep, Brother Chen, aren't you worried? Aren't you nervous at all?" Yang Wendi was a little excited.
"Are you talking about movies, what's there to be nervous about?" I asked.
Yang Wendi will call me, and he has such a tone, most of it is because of the movie, she has been worried a lot these days, this is the first movie in the sense of our company, and no one in the whole company does not care.
I was also concerned and nervous, but when I came out of the cinema and heard what those people said about the movie and what I saw in the cinema, I felt a lot more at ease.
A movie can make people cry, even if the box office is bad, so what? At least the word of mouth is there, at least the movie is not bad.
I want to make money, after all, this is the first movie I made, but it's not like I can make money if I want to, I have to look at the market and the audience. I'm not completely sure about making money, but at least I'm applauding, and I feel more or less comforted, and the pressure is not as great as before.
I'm afraid that after the movie is made, it will not be popular or popular, and that will be the real blow.
"It must be a movie thing, the box office of the movie will be counted immediately, don't you care at all?" Yang Wendi said, "This movie is your debut, if this movie can be successful, our company will really enter the entertainment industry." ”
"Who else besides you and Liang Fanghong?" I said, "where are you now?"
"We are in the company now, and the accurate box office of the movie is still being counted, but I have some connections, I can get the data in advance, wait for 12 o'clock, integrate the data in their hands, and speculate a little, although it is not so accurate, but I can also calculate the box office preliminarily. Yang Wendi said, "We are waiting in the company now, in addition to me and Liang Fanghong, many employees are also there." ”
"Okay, no problem, then you wait for me for a while, and I'll go too. "I thought about it and decided to go to the company and accompany Yang Wendi, Liang Fanghong and them to wait for the data to come out, otherwise even if I lie in bed tonight, I guess I won't sleep well.
I changed into clean clothes, drove to the company, entered the company's gate, the time had passed 12 o'clock, Yang Wendi saw me come in, looked up and greeted me: "Brother Chen, wait a minute, my friend has sent the data to me, I am calculating, and the results will be available immediately." ”
That's not actually how movies are counted at the box office.
Now they are all developing in the direction of automation, and the same is true for the box office of movies, computer ticketing, network feedback, and a fixed time every day will automatically send box office data to the National Film Administration Film Special Fund Management Center, and then automatically calculate and count the real-time box office.
However, it has just turned the clock, and the accurate box office data has not yet come out, Yang Wendi must have obtained the box office data of some places through some relationships, and the statistics will be carried out manually, and the overall box office will be preliminarily estimated.
Although there will be some gaps with the actual box office, it is possible to estimate the actual box office through rough calculations.
I waited on the side for a while, and after about ten minutes, Yang Wendi stopped his pen, and the excitement on his face did not subside: "Brother Chen, the statistics are out, do you know how much we had at the box office today, no, should we say how much yesterday's box office was?"
"How many?" I can't guess, no specific concept.
"43 million. Yang Wendi reported a number, "This is still the box office data of some places, because of time, only these data are obtained, which is not very accurate, and the actual box office should be higher than this month, estimated at about 50 million." ”
"That's not very high. I said.
50 million has not been able to recover the cost, although the investment only cost 20 or 30 million, but the box office of 50 million has to be divided with the theater.
If the net profit is 50 million, it will be profitable, but this is just a day's box office data, and if it can reach this level, the box office will definitely not lose money in the future.
I know that.
"We only have an 8% film schedule, and we can't even reach 10%. With such a high box office, it is already quite good, and at night
