Chapter 171: Five Billion (Ask for the First Order!)
After surviving a publicity period, a big star has to lose several pounds!
Including Zhao Zhenghao, after the opening of "A Chinese Ghost Story" and the itinerary suddenly became busy, his weight, which had been very stable before, also showed an irrepressible downward trend, and he lost two kilograms in ten days!
Uncontrolled weight loss like this is very damaging to your health, and from time to time, your body will be broken down sooner or later.
Zhao Zhenghao still wants to work for the health of fans for another 50 years, but he doesn't want his body to collapse early.
The movie "A Chinese Ghost Story" is being screened, although the box office situation has met Zhao Zhenghao's expectations, but there are contract constraints, and the roadshow planned by the distributor, even if Zhao Zhenghao is tired, he has to grit his teeth and persevere, and he can only be lazy in other aspects.
After the release of "A Chinese Ghost Story", Zhao Zhenghao adjusted the program list of the "Dangerous Journey" world tour again, and the singing and dancing programs that consume a lot of physical energy have been reduced to the limit, the three most classic songs "Billie Jean", "Thriller" and "Smooth Criminal" , The number of performances at each concert has been reduced to one, it is this song, Zhao Zhenghao also streamlined his dance moves, and no longer forced himself to pursue true singing, and chose lip-syncing.
In the other performance repertoire, the number of lyric songs was also consciously increased, and the effort was as little as possible while ensuring the excitement of the concert.
In addition, the arrangement of the program is no longer as compact as before, one after another, but between the two songs, some dialogue and interaction with the audience at the scene have been added, while recovering physical strength, and at the same time adding some fun to the concert.
On the tenth day of the release of "A Chinese Ghost Story", the "Dangerous Journey" world tour came to Yangcheng again, and during the concert in Yangcheng, Zhao Zhenghao interacted with the audience as usual.
Since "A Chinese Ghost Story" is being screened, Zhao Zhenghao first asked the audience, "Have you all gone to watch my movie?"
The audience who can come to the concert site is all die-hard fans of Zhao Zhenghao, not to mention that the quality of "A Chinese Ghost Story" is still above the standard, it is worth watching, even if it is bad, in order to support their idols, they will go to the cinema to buy a ticket.
Therefore, the audience's response was unanimous, "Watch!"
"Are you planning to watch it again?" asked Cho Jung-ho jokingly with fans.
Zhao Zhenghao himself also knows that there is no need to watch a popcorn movie like "A Chinese Ghost Story" twice, so without waiting for the audience to respond, he continued to say, "Thank you very much for your support, now, you all know, I not only sing well, dance well, acting skills are also good, and the director is okay, so in the future, I will not only continue to make good music to repay everyone's love, but also make more and better movies as a gift to you. A Chinese Ghost Story ", support my new movie!"
The audience said in unison, "We will always support you!"
"Thank you, do you think the theme song of the same name of the movie "A Chinese Ghost Story" is very good?"
"Sounds good!" the audience responded crisply.
The quality of the song "A Chinese Ghost Story" is really good, and the sales performance after the listing is also very good, with the total sales of the music source in the first week reaching 350 million, becoming another song by Zhao Zhenghao with the sales of more than 300 million.
"Actually, there is also a Cantonese version of this song, and next, I will give it to everyone, I hope you can like it!"
In fact, the Cantonese version of "A Chinese Ghost Story" is its most classic version, because the original version of the "A Chinese Ghost Story" movie was originally the Cantonese version, and the Mandarin version was dubbed later.
Similarly, the Mandarin version of "A Chinese Ghost Story", the lyrics were also refilled later, although to a large extent, the charm of the original version was retained, but because Master Huang Zhan followed the principle of nine tones and six tones in Cantonese when composing the music, it still sounded less charming.
Now, Zhao Zhenghao has taken out its Cantonese version, which can be regarded as a tribute to the master Huang Zhan.
Sure enough, the original Cantonese version of "A Chinese Ghost Story", like a melodious nine tones and six tones, quickly immersed fans in Yangcheng.
After the concert, Zhao Zhenghao put the sound source of the Cantonese version of "A Chinese Ghost Story" on the shelves of Penguin Music, as a follow-up publicity means, and continued to promote the movie "A Chinese Ghost Story".
And, from this day on, in the traditional Cantonese-speaking areas of Guangzhou, Hong Kong and Macao, "Zhenghao Studio" has launched a Cantonese dubbed version of the movie "A Chinese Ghost Story", attracting interested audiences to enter the theater for the second time.
According to statistics, the Cantonese dubbed version of "A Chinese Ghost Story" has made a contribution of more than 200 million to the total box office of the film.
After the movie "A Chinese Ghost Story" entered the third week of its release, the single-day box office on weekdays showed an obvious decline curve, from more than 200 million per day in the previous week to more than 100 million.
On the weekend and two days of the third week, although the single-day box office has rebounded again, the cumulative amount in two days exceeded 400 million, so that the total box office successfully exceeded 4 billion, accumulating to 4.3 billion!
This also includes contributions from the Cantonese dubbed version.
After entering the fourth week, the single-day box office of "A Chinese Ghost Story" continued to fall, five days on weekdays, with an average of more than 50 million left every day.
However, despite this, the total box office of "A Chinese Ghost Story" still accumulated to 4.8 billion after this week, which is only one step away from the 5 billion mark!
At this time, the scheduling rate of "A Chinese Ghost Story" has dropped from more than 50% to less than 15%.
Entering the fifth week, as the film scheduling rate continues to decline, the single-day box office of "A Chinese Ghost Story" continues to decline, but it can still increase by 20 million per day.
Sure enough, although "A Chinese Ghost Story" failed to exceed 5 billion at the total box office as everyone expected, this historic moment still came as scheduled on the 31st day of its release!
So far, "A Chinese Ghost Story" has become the ninth film in 2014 to exceed 5 billion in Longguo, and it is the fifth domestic film to achieve this achievement.
