Chapter 69: 10 million box office

(Thank you brothers for your support, ask for a ticket!Thank you!)

Wu Cheng's combination punch came down, and directly beat Jiahe to a blue nose and swollen face, and Zou Wenhuai was very angry, but he was helpless, there were too many differences in the theaters, and there was no suspense in the result.

From this ending, Zhao Yazhi could see that Wu Cheng's worries that day were simply pretended by him, and the purpose was just to sleep with them.

Although she was a little annoyed, she didn't say anything more when she saw his happy smile. Of course, at this time, she had already gone to the crew of "Book of Swords and Enmity" to report.

The company's finances were handed over to the deputy Ma Xinlian, who was a twenty-five or sixteen-year-old woman, who naturally passed the test in appearance, and her ability was also very good, and she was a returnee. Of course, returnees are nothing new in Xiangjiang, because it is indeed convenient to study abroad here.

Ma Xinlian's work ability is quite strong, although she has been acting as Zhao Yazhi's deputy, but in fact, most of the things are solved by her. She also knows that although Zhao Yazhi is the company's financial manager, she is actually the boss's wife, and even the boss sometimes has to look at her face.

In the whole company, who doesn't know that the boss has great respect for the boss?

Yes, although she is only a deputy, Ma Xinlian does not feel that she has no talent, but is very respectful to Zhao Yazhi, Zhao Yazhi has any questions to ask her, and she is also very careful to answer.

Now the finances of the Flying Dragon Theater are what she is taking the lead in.

In fact, on the eleventh day of the release of "Miscellaneous", the Shaw Brothers had already fully painted it. There are too many theaters, and it is actually normal to paint in ten days.

If it weren't for the third week, Wu Cheng would have held a movie lottery in his Feilong Cinema, and the box office of 'Miscellaneous' would have peaked.

At the end of the third week, the 'miscellaneous' had no choice but to draw in advance, after all, the box office potential of the entire Xiangjiang is only so little, and the 'lucky draw' is actually squeezing out the box office potential.

Wu Cheng is actually satisfied, because the box office of 'Miscellaneous' has exceeded 10 million, although it has not broken the record of 'Five Lucky Stars', it can be regarded as an extraordinary performance.

In fact, if it is released under normal circumstances, it is unlikely that the box office will break 10 million, but Wu Cheng spent 500,000 yuan and came to a lucky draw, so he barely broke it.

And the film "Half a catty", its stamina is not small, although under the crazy blow of "miscellaneous", they still stole nearly 7 million box office, which is more than 1 million less than the original historical box office, but it also shows its original huge box office potential.

This result broke Zou Wenhuai's heart, if it weren't for his own willfulness, the result would definitely not be like this. If it weren't for his impatience to let out his words, Wu Cheng would not have cooperated with Shao Tycoon, if he hadn't cooperated with Shao Tycoon, then he would have an advantage in the theater.

Too many ifs, so that Zou Wenhuai hated Wu Cheng so much.

Because calculated carefully, the box office potential of 'half a catty' is greater than that of 'miscellaneous', but in the end, the box office was actually less than 3 million, which made him not angry.

'Miscellaneous', Wu Cheng did not let "Drunken Fist" take over, because the box office potential of Xiangjiang's movies is under the pressure of these two films, and if you want to recover, you have to wait at least one or two months.

Otherwise, Zou Wenhuai would not have to draw the 'half catty' in advance.

If there is no box office "miracle" of "Miscellaneous" in front, the box office results of nearly 7 million in "Half a catty" are already very beautiful, and even the Xu brothers feel quite satisfied.

But looking at the super high box office of more than 10 million yuan of 'miscellaneous', they only have a bitter smile in addition to a bitter smile. Who said that Boss Zou is not so bold and unwilling to spend money!

Originally, Xu Guanwen also felt that Donglong could also smash it if he threw money into activities, but Zou Wenhuai directly refused, 500,000 is not a small amount, and it is still a question whether he can smash out a million box office, after all, the box office potential has been squeezed almost to the bottom.

Moreover, he doesn't want to be said to be imitating Wu Cheng anymore and following his example.

Therefore, in this battle, Wu Cheng's Donglong defeated Golden Harvest, and also made Donglong directly gain a firm foothold in Xiangjiang, and many filmmakers came to vote, and the theater line did not worry about the lack of film sources.

Wu Cheng handed over the distribution rights of the 'Miscellaneous Family' Nanyang area to the Shaw Brothers, but the distribution of Japan, South Korea and Baodao was pinched by him. But as a result, the issuance of Japan and South Korea was very smooth, that is, the issuance of the treasure island, which was affected by Jiahe, which was a bit difficult.

If it weren't for Shao Tycoon's earning a lot this time and sending some kindness to help Wu Cheng say a few words, Donglong International would probably have to hand over the issuance of Treasure Island to Shao Tycoon.

This discovery made Wu Cheng a little embarrassed, and at the same time reminded him of the film "Taking the Wrong Car" that opened up the situation in the future Xinyicheng on Treasure Island.

However, it seems that his situation is different from that of Xinyicheng at the beginning, and his films are not without a market in Baodao, but the distribution is influenced by Golden Harvest. And Xinyicheng was originally to open up the treasure island market, so it filmed "The Wrong Car".

The film "Taking the Wrong Car" was made by Xinyicheng for the big box office of Baodao, and it was written by Huang Baiming in two days, which caused a movie-watching miracle on Baodao.

Although its box office in Xiangjiang was average, it was re-screened eight times in five consecutive months, making him the first Treasure Island film to be released in mainland China the following year.

It can be said that this drama has achieved the prestige of Xinyicheng and Huang Baiming, and Huang Baiming's creative speed has also become a benchmark for Xiangjiang filmmakers.

Thinking of Huang Baiming, Wu Cheng felt that he could attract this talent, and now he is still a screenwriter on TV station, so it is entirely possible to be co-opted.

Just when Wu Cheng was thinking about these things, Hong Jinbao came to Wu Cheng with the script.

"Ah Cheng, can you shoot this script?"

Hung Jinbao was a little excited, because this script was thought up by himself when he was filming 'Miscellaneous', although it was a bit rough, as long as it could be filmed.

When Wu Cheng saw the words 'loser', he couldn't help but be a little stunned. Because he knows this play, and he knows who wrote the script of this play, in addition to Hung Jinbao himself, there is another person, and that person is also Hung Jinbao's royal screenwriter - Huang Shanyao.

But now that this Huang Shanyao has not appeared, I didn't expect Hong Jinbao to write it out himself.

Although the script looks a little rough, it is much better than the scripts of other filmmakers, which is somewhat influenced by Wu Cheng.

Wu Cheng said with a smile: "Brother Sanmao doesn't plan to rest and rest, I just filmed 'Drunk One', and 'Drunk Er' doesn't want to shoot much!"

Hong Jinbao smiled: "How can I compare with you, you have so many things to manage, I just need to make a film." Ah Cheng, do you think this script can be filmed?"

"Of course, you can shoot it, but I think it's better to write the dialogue or something first, and if you add dialogue on the set, it will definitely have an impact on the quality and progress of the film. ”

Hong Jinbao rubbed his hands a little embarrassed and said: "In terms of dialogue, I want the company's screenwriting team to polish it, and when the script is completely formed, I will make a budget!"

"It's good for you to look at it, how can you say that you are also the deputy manager of the production department!" Wu Cheng said with a smile: "The box office share of the Shaw Brothers has come down, you can call the brothers out to celebrate in the evening, and those dividends that should be paid to the brothers will also be sent down, which can be regarded as boosting morale." ”

Hong Jinbao said with a smile: "I didn't expect the sixth uncle to be an old man! I heard that Golden Harvest owes the Xu brothers some overseas box office shares, and now they are still owed! Fortunately, we didn't choose Golden Harvest in the first place." With these dividends, it is estimated that those guys will wake up laughing at night when they dream!"

Wu Cheng said with a smile: "The sixth uncle doesn't need to tie us to his boat, so naturally he won't just default on his share, otherwise, where will his old face go!"

"By the way, Ah Cheng, when is your "Drunken Fist" going to be released!"

Wu Cheng froze, shook his head and said: "It's July! It's the summer season, and now the box office potential of Xiangjiang has been almost squeezed, and the release of "Drunken Fist" is a little unsuitable. ”

Hong Jinbao nodded when he heard this, and said, "I'll go back and tell Ah Long, he has been a little unbalanced psychologically in the past few days, this kid is always so impatient!"

Wu Cheng chuckled when he heard this, although Shenglong's temperament, although he didn't understand it as Hong Jinbao, he was equally clear. "Brother Sanmao, you go back and tell him that if he wants to go to the West in the future to fight the world, he will hone his acting skills for me, and save the time to go out and look foreign. ”

When Hong Jinbao heard this, he couldn't help but be slightly stunned, and finally said with some worry: "Ah Cheng, you don't want to take us to Hollywood now, do you!

Wu Cheng glanced at Hong Jinbao and found that in his eyes, he also had a strong yearning for Hollywood, so he was silent and said: "Breaking into Hollywood, that is definitely wanted, but not now." After all, we still have the big enemy of Golden Harvest in Xiangjiang, and if they lose this time, they will definitely want to find a way back, but we haven't completely gained a foothold. So, the road, you have to take it one step at a time! If you take too big a step, it's easy to pull the egg!"

Hong Jinbao chuckled when he heard this, but he was also relieved, at least Wu Cheng was not overwhelmed by the victory, he was worried that Wu Cheng was too young and vigorous and easy to lose his way.

But now it seems that his worries are a little unnecessary!

It's hard to imagine that a person as big as him would have such a calm temperament. Sometimes Hong Jinbao feels that what is sitting in front of him is not a young man, but an old man.

While Wu Cheng and Hong Jinbao were chatting in the office, Wang Xin, a secretary dressed as an office girl, knocked on the door and said, "Boss, it's almost time for lunch!"

Wu Cheng was stunned for a moment, got up and said, "Brother Sanmao, I asked Ms. Chen for dinner at noon, are you interested in accompanying me to meet you?"

Hong Jinbao was puzzled: "Which Ms. Chen?"

"Ms. Chen Shufen!"

Hong Jinbao was stunned for a while, came back to his senses, and said, "Is it the same Ms. Chen Shufen Chen who you invited her to join our Donglong International last time, but was rejected by her?"

"Well, it's her!"

"Why did you get in touch with her again?" Hong Jinbao was stunned for a moment, and finally shook his head and smiled: "Forget it, I still don't want to join in this fun, and when the matter is done, we can get together again." ”

"Then I'll go first!"
