Chapter 121: A Brilliant Step [5/5]
Chen Tian also thought that when "Hard Fruit Candy" was released, it would be the same as "Buried Alive" and "Super Burger King", taking the previous screening route, and then expanding the scale of the release.
Chen Tian did not expect that "Little Sunshine Beauty" failed to get a large-scale release, although the release of "Little Sunshine Beauty" is destined to collide with several blockbusters.
Chen Tian is also confident that he will seize the audience with this film, but the current situation is something he did not expect.
"Justin, there's really no way to do it this time, but the good news in the bad news is that in addition to the six major theaters, other theaters were willing to schedule more films for us.
But although they occupy more theaters, the movie-watching habits formed by the audience are not ...... or where they are located."
Eric Lomis didn't continue, and Chen Tian understood what he meant.
Just like Chen Tian himself, he habitually goes to which theater or theaters, and will not suddenly change to a theater that he is not familiar with.
Since the six major cinema chains can account for 80% of the box office revenue, they are not just gathering people's viewing habits.
More importantly, their supporting facilities, the audience's enjoyment of watching the movie, and the facilities around the theater, including parking lots, are determined by many factors.
The cinemas of the six major cinema chains often occupy the best viewing spots in the city, which is why they account for 80% of the box office revenue.
So in contrast, those theaters in towns or small cities, even if they are full of "Little Sunshine Beauty" every day, may not be able to bring a good box office.
Even sometimes a box office is not much higher than maintaining theater facilities, so such a schedule is meaningless, which will slow down the box office.
"Eric. How much can they give from the six major theaters?"
Chen Tian felt that if the box office was good, there was no reason for the theater not to increase the schedule for "Little Sunshine Beauty".
"The six major cinema chains together arranged 300 for us on the first day. However, other theaters can give us almost 1,600, which is almost 2,000 in total. ”
"Wow. Sounds like a massive release. Chen Tian said in a self-deprecating tone.
"There is no way, the six major theaters have left more screens for films such as "The Lord of the Rings 3" and "Mona Lisa's Smile", "The Last Samurai", "A Basket of Children", "Cold Mountain" and so on.
This time, the number of theaters released in "The Lord of the Rings 3" will exceed 4,000, plus several other films.
Although we can understand the arrangement of them in terms of the total number of people, I always feel that there is something wrong with it.
Justin, it's really not okay for us to adjust the schedule? Or we'll bring it to a small release in November.
I think we're doing well, so they're going to agree to our request, what do you think?"
"Eric, I think so too. ”
Chen Tian couldn't think of a good way for the time being. can only hope to rely on the word-of-mouth of the film to get more films.
Eric Lomis, on the other end of the phone, sighed depressedly, he originally wanted to use the word of mouth of people who watched "Little Sunshine Beauty" at the New York Film Festival to get more attention and get a good box office.
Coupled with the help of Harvey Weinstein, he tried to hit the Oscars and then have a boost to the box office, but now everything has become different due to the theater arrangement.
"I think we have to choose 50 or 100 theaters for small-scale releases, and of course we have to choose theaters in the six major theater chains.
In terms of timing, I think it would be a good choice to start on December 5th, which happens to be Friday.
If the grades are not bad. It should be able to get a good scale of release on the 19th. ”
After temporarily confirming the unanimous idea of a small-scale release of "Little Sunshine Beauty", Chen Tian hung up the phone.
Then sat in front of the computer and typed on the keyboard, Chen Tian first wrote the script of "The Queen Wears Prada".
With Lauren Weisberg's explanation, combined with the film in my head. Chen Tian wrote the script very quickly.
Chen Tian did not immediately write the storyboard script, and at twelve o'clock in the evening, Chen Tian wrote the script of "The Queen Wears Prada".
Although it was not early, Chen Tian was not sleepy at all. With a feeling of excitement, Chen Tian wrote the script of "League of Assassins".
Tapping on the keyboard, Chen Tian was based on the script written by the later "League of Assassins". The only change is the change of the identity of the hero and heroine.
This script will be used for preliminary role auditions, not the final script.
Unconsciously wrote until three o'clock in the morning. Chen Tiancai completed the entire script of "League of Assassins".
Looking at the original script that had been written, Chen Tian smiled.
After a brief tidying up, he lay down on the bed and fell asleep.
"The Secret Date of Justin Chan and Anne Hathaway" -- such a news story appeared in the entertainment section of the New York News the next day.
Newspapers that were not very interested in Chen Tian also became concerned with the $100 million bet between Chen Tian and Fox at the New York Film Festival.
Coupled with the successive reports of dating Anne Hathaway, it made those lace tabloids even more excited.
They even began to eagerly search for evidence that Chen Tian and Scarlett were about to divorce.
Some lace tabloids even used in the newspaper that the two were still separated after they got married, and there was no joint property as evidence to prove that Chen Tian and Scarlett had a weak relationship.
Justin is dating Annie again, once again illustrating the end of his married life with Scarlett Johansson. ”
"Love at first sight is always just a joke, where do Justin and Scarlett go?"
"Anne snatches love with a knife, and there is a fight between two women, Scarlett and Anne. ”
For Scarlett's fans, Chen Tian and Scarlett's breakup is something they are happy to see, and in their opinion, Chen Tian is far from worthy of Scarlett.
Anne Hathaway's fans were also dissatisfied, and they were unhappy with Anne Hathaway's involvement in Chen Tian.
And their dissatisfaction is not because Anne Hathaway intervened. It's because they feel that Chen Tian can't be compared with Annie at all.
Under a sense of conscious guidance, most of the people were belittling Chen Tian, and in their opinion, Chen Tian and Scarlett were married.
However, Chen Tian and Anne Hathaway frequently dated, and in their opinion, Chen Tian's behavior was terrible.
Someone even raised a mention of a video about collective resistance to Chen Tian on the Internet.
Faced with these messy scandal reports, Chen Tian chose to laugh it off.
All he has to do now is to determine the heroes and heroines of "League of Assassins" as much as possible.
Especially after the heroine and the male protagonist are swapped, the heroine of the whole film becomes particularly important.
However, Chen Tian called Kate Beckinsale and Milla Jovovich separately, and received two terrible news.
Due to scheduling reasons, Kate Beckinsale and Milla Jovovich will not be able to take over the show.
These two bad news forced Chen Tian to find the heroine again, and Chen Tian also returned to Los Angeles from New York.
Because Sophie Marceau happened to be in Los Angeles, Chen Tian wanted to see if she had a schedule.
If anything, Chen Tian wants to try Sophie Marceau.
After getting off the plane from the airport, Chen Tian, who was sitting in a taxi, looked at the blocked road, and an excellent way to promote "Little Sunshine Beauty" popped up in his mind.
If this publicity method is successfully implemented, it will definitely be an excellent step for "Little Sunshine Beauty", which has not been able to get a good theater. (To be continued......)
