Chapter 797 Unstoppable!
Gerst is a theater owner, well, a small theater owner.
Now, though, Gerst has a little trouble.
"Damn, why did I refuse the cooperation of Shuguang Entertainment in the first place, I'm really a fucking fool!" Watching the box office of "Monkey King" climb steadily, and watching the theater owners who accepted "Monkey King" make a lot of money, Gerst felt that his heart was bleeding.
As a businessman, he can get along with anyone, but he can't get along with money, but now, he just can't get along with money!
"Damn, I knew that "Monkey King" was so perverted, I should have accepted Zhao Zhonghua's request in the first place!" There is no doubt that Gerst regretted it, and he regretted it very much.
For him, the most painful thing every day is to watch the money spent in vain pour into the hands of his peers, and then he can only silently watch others count the money with tears in his eyes.
"Hey, you shouldn't have listened to Sures! And Jackson, it's too waste, why did Lao Tzu put the treasure on his waste in the first place?"
Gust wanted to cry without tears.
I think that at the beginning, when the three major movies were not on the shelves, Sulace and Jackson informed him not to schedule "Monkey King", and then, in order to gain the friendship between the two, Gerst stupidly agreed.
Of course, at that time, Gerst didn't feel that he would suffer by doing so, because in his eyes, Hu Yu was completely a running companion, and even whether he could run with Cameron and Jackson to the end was a question.
Therefore, offending Hu Yu and befriending Jackson is definitely a big lucrative thing.
Moreover, in order to let Jackson and Sulace know him, he acted as a pioneer, and he didn't even give a screen to "Monkey King"!
However, the subsequent development was beyond his expectations, or rather, it was beyond everyone's expectations, no one thought that Hu Yu, who was the least optimistic, would turn into a black black horse that could no longer be black, directly crushing "Galactic Empire" and "Sun God"!
It can be said that when Gust saw the box office of "Monkey King", his eyes were about to fall to the ground.
This is too fake, there is wood?
Gerst even wondered if he was dreaming.
It's a pity, it turns out that all this is true, Cameron, who is ranked No. 1 in the world, and Jackson, who is ranked No. 3 in the world, were really defeated by Hu Yu, and Hu Yu completely crushed Jackson, look at the global box office on the 27th, "Monkey King" is almost twice as much as "Sun God", this is not completely crushed, what is?
Well, now that other theaters are making a lot of money because of "Monkey King", especially when he sees his opponent's theater making a lot of money, he is almost jealous.
"The most hateful thing is that the attendance rate of "Monkey King" is exceeded, and there is a ninety-five percent attendance rate!"
In the morning, Gerst met one of his old opponents, and the news was still his old opponents, well, his old opponents just wanted to bury themselves.
This is 95% of the attendance, and if you put it down, the theater doesn't know how much you have to earn!
This is also because there are fewer people watching movies in some time periods, you must know that the attendance rate of "Monkey King" in prime time is as high as 100%.
Then, looking at the attendance rate of "Galactic Empire" and "Sun God", "Galactic Empire" is okay, the attendance rate is as high as 86 percent, but "Sun God" is much worse, and now it is only 55 percent attendance.
You know, on the 25th, "Sun God" still had 78% attendance, and only two days have passed, and the attendance rate has dropped by 23%, which is not too miserable!
Now, I'm about to become the joke of the whole city, picking up sesame seeds and throwing away watermelons.
"No, I must introduce "Monkey King", it's not too late to introduce it now, isn't there an allusion in Huaxia, it's called making up for the dead, isn't it too late?
Gerst made up his mind.
Then, without saying a word, Gust directly booked a plane ticket to the City of Angels, and now, the scheduling rate of "Monkey King" is controlled by ADC's CEO Dridge, oh, it shouldn't be called AMC, it should be called the Dawning Theaters of the United States.
On this day, there are many people who made the same decision as Gerst.
When they saw the box office of "Monkey King" on the third day, they couldn't stop yelling anymore and drove to Los Angeles one after another, wanting to win the screening rights of "Monkey King".
What, where does the scheduling rate come from?
Isn't "Sun God" a good source of film scheduling?
Why does a movie with a low attendance rate get a high scheduling rate?
City of Angels, Hollywood, Dawning Cinema Line Headquarters Building.
The CEO runs the company.
Dridge sat in the office, crossed his legs, drinking the quintessence of China..... Longjing tea, so uncomfortable.
"It's been a really comfortable day!" Dridge said with a smile squinting his eyes.
Originally, Dridge thought that after accepting the appointment of Dawning Entertainment, life would be difficult, but it turned out that he thought too much.
Not only did his little life not be the contrary, it also moistened a lot.
Before the acquisition, Dridge was often worried about the company's growth, but now, he doesn't.
"Knock knock!"
"Come in!"
Then, a sexy blonde beauty walks in, it is none other than Ava, Dririch's secretary.
"What's the matter?" asked Dridge.
"Sir, the owner of Dream Cinema is here, he wants to see you, you see?"
"Is Dream Cinema the same Corey who rejected us and didn't give us any face?" asked Dridge.
"Yes, sir!"
"Okay, I see, let him wait an hour!" Dridge sneered.
Although Dridge thinks that he is not a person with a small belly, he is not very generous, you must know that at the beginning, after Zhao Zhonghua acquired AMC, he also took Dridge to some small theaters to pull the number of films.
Because Dridge is a native of the United States, taking him there can sometimes play a certain positive role.
In fact, Dridge did help Zhao Zhonghua, but there are also some theater bosses who look down on Dridge, including Corey.
Now, Corey came to him for help, and if he didn't put it down, then he wouldn't be Dridge.
"Do as you ask, sir. Ava said delicately.
"Well, let's go!" Dridge said casually, waving his hand.
It wasn't until Ava had left that Dridge sneered.
"Hehe, I looked down on "Monkey King" before, but now I see that "Monkey King" is popular, and I want to come to get a piece of the pie?
Before, it was Dritchie who begged his grandfather to tell his grandmother to pull the film, but now, it is those theaters that come to woo him, and feng shui takes turns!
Now, I don't know how many theater owners want the screening rights of "Monkey King".
Therefore, Dridge is a little disdainful of the number of films scheduled by Dream Cinemas, after all, Dream Cinemas is just a small cinema.
If Dream Cinema is a medium-sized cinema chain, then Dridge will not treat it like this, because he still has some use value.
But now, although Dridge has use value, it is too small.
VIP lounges.
"Miss Ava, how is it, when is Mr. Dridge seeing me?" Corey greeted Ava as soon as he saw her coming.
"Excuse me, Mr. Corey, Mr. Dridge is in a meeting and doesn't have time yet, please wait a minute!" Ava said.
"Miss Ava, how long will it take?" asked Cory.
"An hour. ”
"Okay, I see!" Corey was not angry, an hour was not very long, he could wait.
For the sake of money, what is the point of waiting for an hour?
At this time, another person came to the VIP room.
This person, whom Corey knew, was one of his peers and the owner of a small cinema chain, whose name was Ade, but Ade's cinema was a little larger than his.
Corey has always wanted to surpass Ade's Friendship Cinema.
When Ava saw Ade, her eyes lit up and she immediately walked over.
"Hello, Mr. Ade!"
"Hello, beautiful Miss Ava. When Ade saw Ava, he also greeted with a smile.
"Mr. Ade, President Dridge has instructed you to come directly to his office!" Ava said.
"Okay, please Miss Ava lead the way. ”
"This is what I should do!"
Then, Ava and Ade left the VIP room directly, leaving only a stunned Corey.
Didn't you say that Dridge was in a meeting, didn't you say that you would have to wait for an hour, why could Ade go straight to the office when he came?
Liars, all liars!
Corey only felt that his lungs were about to explode, but when he thought about it, he still sat down, no way, now the situation is stronger than people, he can't just leave in a huff now.
He is a professional businessman, and he still has some patience, and he is reluctant to spend that white money.
……
Time passed, and another three days passed.
In the past three days, "Monkey King" is still very strong to occupy the throne of the global daily box office champion, and what is surprising is that in the past three days, the box office of "Monkey King" is still growing strongly and has not fallen!
You must know that even Master Cameron's "Galactic Empire" reached a fixed point at the box office on the fourth day, with a box office of up to 150 million US dollars.
But after the fourth day, "Galactic Empire" began to decline, and on the fifth day it returned to the standard of the third day, with a global daily box office of only 140 million, and on the sixth day, the box office was only 120 million.
On the fourth day, "Monkey King" got a global box office of 170 million US dollars, on the fifth day, it was 173 million, and on the sixth day, it was as high as 178 million US dollars.
The strength of "Monkey King" shocked the world.
Although it is said that the first week is a strong period for the movie, generally speaking, after the first few days of strength, the box office will more or less fall back, but "Monkey King" actually came to a strong six-day streak.
A large number of experts' eyes fell to the ground.
Of course, the reason why "Monkey King" is so strong is related to her film scheduling rate, in the past three days, the global film scheduling rate of "Monkey King" has also increased, and it is precisely because of the increase in film scheduling rate that the box office will continue to rise.
And in these places, the place with the fastest growth in film scheduling rate is the United States.
Now, "Monkey King" has a screening rate of 40% in the United States, which is the film with the highest screening rate among all the released films, surpassing Master Cameron's "Galactic Empire"!
Six days ago, Master Cameron's "Galactic Empire" did have the highest film schedule, but now, "Galaxy Empire" has only 30% film schedule.
However, "Galactic Empire" is not bad, and the most tragic is Jackson's "Sun God"!
The film scheduling rate of "Sun God" is not even 20%, only 18%.
For a while, there were even many people who did not recognize the identity of the three major movies of "Sun God".
There are even many people who ridiculed "Sun God", such as "Tell a joke, "Sun God" is one of the three major movies!"
Of course, this is also related to the quality of "Helison", there is no doubt that Jackson still has the ability, he did not adapt "Helios" into a bad movie, and the rating on IMDB is as high as 7.1.
For an adapted movie, a score of seven points and one is not low.
You must know that there are many directors who can't even get a passing score of six in their film adaptations, and among these directors, there are some world-class directors.
Jackson was able to get this score, which can already be said to be qualified.
However, it also depends on who you compare yourself to.
Cameron's "Galactic Empire" has a rating of 8.3 points on IMDB, which is 1.2 points higher than "Sun God", and the rating of "Monkey King", although it is not as against the sky as when it premiered, also has a score of 9.5 points, which is 2.4 points higher than "Sun God".
Therefore, in front of "Monkey King" and "Galactic Empire", "Sun God" was turned into scum in seconds.
In addition, some brain-dead fans of "Helios" think that Jackson's "Helios" is not good, which leads to the market of "Helios" is not very good.
Just look at the box office in the next few days.
On the fourth day, "Sun God" only got a global box office of 83 million US dollars, and on the fifth day, the global box office was less than 80 million, only a mere 79 million, and on the sixth day, it was even worse, only 77 million US dollars!
The development trajectory of "Sun God", it can be said that "Monkey King" is completely opposite, "Monkey King" is six consecutive rises, and "Sun God" is six consecutive declines!
Therefore, even an idiot can see that "Monkey King" is already unstoppable.
At this time, many people remembered Hu Yu's declaration in the filming of "Monkey King", which hit the top ten in the world and the Oscars!
At that time, everyone thought that Hu Yu was joking, but now, no one thinks so.
Because, "Monkey King" is heading towards the top ten in the world, or even the top five in the world!
