175 box office small climax (1)
The movie is finally released, and Luo Yu no longer has the same leisurely time as before. On the first morning, he came to the company early in the morning, and the whole company had already moved efficiently, and some purchased data and materials were constantly sent to Yu Dong's desk.
Yu Dong picked up the document and looked at it, and then handed it to Luo Yu: "Judging from the information, the response to the movie is very good, it seems that we succeeded again this time." Congratulations here, you're not far from a famous director now, and you'll be a great director after making a few more movies!"
Luo Yu smiled, "What a famous director, the gap is too big." I'm just doing a little bit of work right now, accumulating some experience or something. If you want to become a famous director, you can only hope for a few more years!"
"Don't talk about that, look at the information!"
Luo Yu looked at the data analyzed by some experts, and finally came to the box office of about 200 million. Experts are more optimistic about two points, the first is that the movie is adapted from it, which is very popular among young people. This will trigger their viewing, which has an innate advantage.
The second is that the main focus of the movie is love, and love is also one of the more profitable themes, as long as the quality of your movie shooting is good enough, there is absolutely no problem in making money.
Luo Yu muttered, "Of course, first of all, adaptation will cause an IP boom, which will make many film and television companies shift from simply relying on screenwriters to write scripts to buying copyrights." As experts say, there is a certain readership, and more importantly, there is a mature story that is accepted by readers, that is, the story is mature and complete. The screenwriter can rely on the adaptation, which greatly solves the problem of difficult scripts. ”
"My own is a relatively bullish existence on the earth, and I also read it back then and wrote it down according to my memory. Although there are some places and differences, what I wrote is more in line with the current reality. Although the content has been modified, the classics have been retained. ”
Luo Yu put down the information, "It is true that such a movie has taken a great advantage on the basis, and this is a mature and potential market." Finding some adapted films and television solves the problem of difficult scripts to a certain extent. In fact, my movies don't sell stories, they sell feelings. Watching a movie will make them feel pure love, and then reminisce about their youth, and that's enough. As long as there is resonance and the quality of the movie is good, there is a good chance that the movie will succeed. ”
Yu Dong nodded, "It makes sense, looking at the data movie box office should be good." This time we won a total of 1,000 screens, and all of them were good screens, and some other scattered small screens or theaters had 500 screens, and of course some are still talking. As long as the movie responds well, I guess the screen can be added a bit!"
Luo Yu shook his head, "I estimate that it is very difficult to increase the screen, and now it is the summer vacation, and the competition is fierce." And there are also foreign blockbusters to make money, so it will be dangerous to continue some small-scale movies or some movies with a bad reputation. I'm definitely better off being wary. ”
Yu Dong smiled, "Don't worry, I've already thought about these and there are no problems." In fact, the most important thing is the quality of your film, which is the core of whether we can make money. ”
Luo Yu returned to the office and picked up the newspaper and read it seriously, and a lot of entertainment news reported the information of the movie. However, now there are many movies and big names, and many movie stars and famous directors have released or are about to release movies. Although his own film has been reported, it is also limited coverage.
Looking at the Internet again, many people have already started to discuss movies. On big websites such as Movie Network, netizens and fans are mostly talking about foreign blockbusters, or movies by some famous directors and big stars. Although some people talk about Luo Yu's movies, they are only a very few.
……
The first day passed like this, although Luo Yu didn't help much, he also paid attention to the information on the Internet. In this way, you can see the shortcomings of the movie from the mouths of netizens, and the movie is still for people to watch in the end.
In the conference room, the company's management is gathering to make further arrangements after the latest box office exits. At nine o'clock, Yu Dong opened the folder and watched carefully, while the eyes of the others were focused on him.
Yu Dong put down the folder, "We succeeded again, the box office of a total of 1,500 screens on the first day was 8 million. ”
Hearing the word eight million all cheered, the film invested 20 million. This includes publicity and shooting, because there are no big names, so a lot of money is saved in terms of stars, and these funds are directly used for film quality and publicity.
Yu Dong said excitedly: "If this continues, we have once again successfully shot a successful small-budget movie, judging from the current data, it is certain to make money, it depends on how much money we can make." Everyone has to act, and all departments work closely together to get more box office. ”
"The Propaganda Department stepped up propaganda and smashed all the remaining 2 million spare funds. If the box office response is good, we will continue to increase publicity, and the Propaganda Department will be responsible for planning. The distribution department began to contact the theater chain and strive to sign more screens, which I will personally follow. There are also some small cinemas and private cinemas that don't let go, and you can pull one is one. ……”
Taking advantage of Yu Dong's assignment, Luo Yu picked up the information and looked at it. The better 1,000 screens of "First Close Contact" contributed more than 6 million to the box office, and the attendance rate was only 65%. Of course this is the average for the whole day, with 90% prime time in the evening. On the whole, it is not bad, if the word-of-mouth fermentation will definitely go to the next level, of course, if the quality of the movie is poor, it will definitely collapse, but Luo Yu is very confident.
The other 500 small screens contributed less than 2 million to the box office, and some specific data are not counted. There is no way to do this, most of these screens are in some third-tier cities or counties, and the small scale and capital are not so strong. Naturally, it is not so satisfactory at the box office, but this is also meat that must be eaten.
Let's take a look at the number one movie, a foreign blockbuster "The King's War". It is indeed a blockbuster with an investment of hundreds of millions of dollars, which is full of some international celebrities and some of the latest movie special effects.
Luo Yu was blinded by the gorgeous data, the box office exceeded 100 million on the first day, and the box office exceeded 100 million for a week. Now the box office is also maintained at 50 million, and it is a weekly box office. Such data directly falls on Huaguo's movies, and the gap is too big. Huaguo's most powerful "Special Police", the box office barely exceeded 100 million on the first day of release and remained for three days, but now it has fallen badly. At present, the first is "The King's War", with a total box office of 800 million.
The second is "Star Guard", with a total box office of 740 million
The third is "SWAT", with a total box office of 685 million
The fourth "Gorgeous Adventure", with a box office of 650 million
……
Chinese films are only ranked third, and the fourth is H country films, and some media have reported on the first few films. Especially for the Chinese movies, there is no sense of shame.
Luo Yu looked at the box office silently, and some were just infinitely angry. Many film powers have turned Huaguo into their ticket warehouse, and they come here like mosquitoes to suck blood. And some people did not feel the danger at all, but instead advocated for them. What a sad thing this is, if this continues, will there still be a market for Chinese films?
Luo Yu was instantly full of fighting spirit, and one day he would make a movie with a box office of more than one billion or two billion. One day, his films will be screened around the world......
