Chapter 99 Calculations

In the small office, everyone stopped what they were doing, and only the sound of rapid breathing remained, and the voice of the employee in charge of reporting was particularly loud at this time.

"Mr. Wei, the first printing of 50,000 copies of the magazine, today sold 8,700 copies. ”

"Okay!" Wei Jianbang really breathed a sigh of relief after hearing this data, and couldn't help shouting.

In terms of today's sales situation, it has basically met the expectations of Wei Jianbang and others, and if the circulation situation in the next few days is stable, there should be no problem with the circulation of the inaugural issue of "Dragon, Tiger and Leopard" reaching 80,000 copies.

As a newly founded magazine, if this achievement is really achieved in the end, then Wei Jianbang will really have the confidence to speak in front of Jiang Ran, after all, this magazine is a ten-day magazine, and three copies are published in January.

"How is the sales feedback?" Lin Guoguang asked with concern.

"Editor-in-Chief Lin, judging from the feedback from various channels, the sales distribution of the magazine shows a trend of less before and more later, so we analyze that the reputation of our magazine is good, and the sales may increase in the next few days. ”

After hearing this, Wei Jianbang glanced at Lin Guoguang, a relaxed smile appeared on his face, and then said: "Okay, everyone! It's not too late now, everyone has worked hard for a while, I have already booked a restaurant, and the company invites everyone tonight." ”

"Okay, thank you, Mr. Wei!"

"Oh, Mr. Wei is rare to be generous, you must have a good meal tonight. ”

Wei Jianbang looked at the jubilant appearance of the employees below, and his heart was full of satisfaction, "This is my career!" He subconsciously clenched his fists and thought with some emotion.

When Wei Jianbang and others were having dinner, Jiang Ran was also paying attention to the release of "Dragon, Tiger and Leopard", but he waited until the next day to receive a call from Wei Jianbang.

"Jianbang, how were yesterday's results? I thought the results were not good, you didn't dare to call me?" Jiang Ran said with some dissatisfaction.

Wei Jianbang carefully explained: "Mr. Jiang, the main reason is that when the results were counted yesterday, it was very late, and I was afraid of delaying your rest, so I delayed it until today to report to you." ”

Jiang Ran just complained because he didn't wait for the result yesterday, so after listening to Wei Jianbang's explanation, he said: "Okay, don't talk about the rest, when you have important matters in the future, you can call me at any time, don't worry about time and other reasons." ”

"Okay, Mr. Jiang!"

"Tell me, what happened yesterday's release?"

Wei Jianbang pressed down the uneasiness in his heart and said excitedly: "Mr. Jiang, yesterday "Dragon, Tiger and Leopard" sold more than 8,700 copies, and the sales trend is growing, I believe that today's results will be better. ”

After Jiang Ran listened to Wei Jianbang's words, a smile appeared on his face, and he encouraged: "Well, the results are not bad, I hope you will make persistent efforts to achieve the agreed goal as soon as possible, and my dry stocks can always be prepared for you." ”

Wei Jianbang and others' production ability is indeed good, just as predicted, "Dragon, Tiger and Leopard" in the following days, with the spread of word of mouth among salty and wet lovers, sales are getting better and better, by the time the second issue is launched, the circulation of the inaugural issue has reached more than 90,000 copies, much higher than expected.

When "Dragon, Tiger and Leopard" magazine was on sale in Hong Kong, "Ghost Guy" produced by Ran Feng Film was finally completed after nearly a month of shooting.

Liu Liwei is now standing at Jiang Ran's desk, reporting on the production of the film and asking for instructions on the distribution of the film.

"Mr. Jiang, now that the movie has been completed, in terms of distribution, do you think it will be released now, or will it be released after the establishment of our own theater?"

Jiang Ran is also a little undecided about this issue, it stands to reason that since Ranfeng Group is about to set up a theater chain, it is of course best to leave the film to his own theater company, but until now, Ran Dong has only won two stores, plus decoration and other work, Ran Feng's own theater line does not know how long it will take.

Jiang Ran rubbed his temples, and then asked Liu Liwei's opinion.

"Ah Wei, what do you think?"

Of course, Liu Liwei hopes that the movie he supervised can be released as soon as possible, but he hopes that the movie "Ghost Guy" can become the opening work of Ranfeng Cinema and leave a mark on the history of Ranfeng.

"Mr. Jiang, although the film is now finished, it will take some time to complete the post-production, so the finished film will not be produced until at least the end of this month. ”

Jiang Ran listened to Liu Liwei's words, thought about it silently, and then said: "Anyway, the movie is still in production now, let's take a look at the construction of the theater first." ”

After Liu Liwei heard this, he was overjoyed, and Jiang Ran obviously acquiesced to his suggestion.

"Hey, Ah Wen, what happened to the TV series you talked to Hu Hai about some time ago?" Jiang Ran hadn't paid much attention to this matter recently, but now he suddenly remembered.

Liu Liwei was obviously a little unprepared for this question, and was stunned for a moment before he said: "Didn't Mr. Jiang give us an idea last time?"

"Later, I discussed it with Hu Hai and thought it was a very good idea, after Hu Hai wrote a synopsis of the story, I communicated with ATV, and they agreed to our plan, and now the editorial department is improving the script, and now it is almost complete. ”

Jiang Ran asked a few more words about this TV, and then cared about Wu Yusen.

"John Woo has been on the crew for so long, how is he now?

"Director Wu's directing experience is really very rich, he has his own understanding of movies, when he was in the crew, he often communicated with Awen, and now he is basically familiar with our company's production process. ”

Liu Liwei said this, as if he remembered something, and suddenly laughed.

Jiang Ran gave him a strange look and asked, "What's wrong?"

Liu Liwei saw Jiang Ran staring at him curiously, immediately put away his smile, and said: "I think of Director Wu's shocked and incredible look when he first came to our crew, when he saw Awen's director's script and thick shooting plan, and now it's a little funny when I think about it." ”

Jiang Ran smiled, Ran Feng has always had a long preparation time in the early stage of each movie, editing detailed shooting plans and scripts, and these preparations can be said to be unique in the current Hong Kong film and television industry.

Therefore, Jiang Ran was not surprised by John Woo's surprise, he hoped that John Woo could familiarize himself with the process and habits of Ran Feng through this close contact with Ran Feng's filmmaking.

"And is he used to our way of making it now?"

Liu Liwei did not answer Jiang Ran immediately, but after thinking about it carefully, he said: "His original habits have been formed for so many years, and it is still a little difficult to fully adapt to our production method in a short period of time, but he is not rejecting our strict production process, I think this is a good phenomenon." ”

After listening to Liu Liwei's words, Jiang Ran nodded, expressing his agreement, and then asked: "Then has Director Wu submitted a film plan to the company now?

"When I was still in the crew, I talked to him about it, and he just said that he didn't want to direct a comedy movie for the time being, but Director Wu himself had no idea about his next step, and I think he was a little at a loss now. Liu Liwei was a little helpless about this.

Jiang Ran thought for a while, and then said: "In this way, let him go through the company's stock scripts in the editorial department first to see if there are any ideas in them that he is interested in." We can't let him stay idle all the time, we're working on the source now. ”

Jiang Ran said this, paused, and then explained: "If he still doesn't find inspiration in the editorial department, let him come to me, I have an idea here and want to talk to him." ”
