Chapter 865: The Audience Who Was Still Being Fooled
Cheng Long did not respond positively to the question of the box office of "Immortality" exceeding 100 million, he just said that he was looking forward to more than 100 million.
After all, this movie, except for the third master and them as actors, the script is creative, and the publicity is powerful, it is difficult to say that it can really touch the hearts of the audience.
It's just that Cheng Long completely underestimated the power of Li Feiteng's fans, and also underestimated the energy of the innovative movie "Immortality".
It's like an inspirational movie adapted from the variety show "Chief Disciple", and the box office finally entered the billionaire club, although it took more than a year, but it was also a miracle and a brand fan movie.
So after the premiere on the night of January 4th, all the movie theaters that night were full.
This is a sure thing, the reason is that the 19 million advance ticket office takes two or three days to consume.
However, in fact, after the pre-sale box office of "Immortality" was so high, Tengda Cinemas, including other theaters in cooperation, began to release "Immortality", and the film scheduling rate reached seventy percent, and there were more than 3,000 cinemas across the country.
Movie tickets were sold out like crazy, and there were long queues at the entrance of movie theaters in major cities.
At this time, on the Internet, various comments about "Immortality and Immortality" also popped up.
"I didn't expect that the third master would lie to us like this, this movie is really good-looking, there are no big scenes, no special effects, no spaceships, no flying away, but just a few people chatting, but it brought me a powerful shock. ”
"It's really a good movie that can't be missed, and the happiest thing in this life is to see the third master appear on the big screen. I'm really looking forward to the third master's next movie. ”
"The third master is really born to be a director. No. The third master is an omnipotent god, and he is the idol I worship the most in my life!"
"Long live the third master, I love the third master, everyone supports the third master's movie, let this movie create a brilliant zào, just like everyone supports the third master's novel!"
"After watching this movie, I think that the third master may really be immortal!"
……
Fans are crazy about the praise, time online. The number of reviews of "Immortality" reached 300,000 times overnight, and tens of thousands of people replied to praise it below.
As for the bad reviews, they have long been drowned in the sea of people.
"It's so hot. ”
Li Feiteng, who is still in New York, called to ask about "Immortality", but at this time, the box office has not completely come out, because the box office statistics will wait for three days later.
What the company gave him feedback was the number of bookings on the box office line every day.
Since the release of the movie, the box office bookings of Time.com have been more than 2 million every day. The total online sales box office is already 13 million.
Arguably. This movie, with a total box office of more than 50 million, is already ironclad.
Finally, three months later, it is unknown how much box office "Immortality" will reach after it is released.
Li Feiteng only knows that "This Man is from Earth" will be released in 800 theaters in North America on February 4.
It's really hard to say how much the two twin brother movies can create at the box office in the world.
The only thing that is certain is that the production cost and publicity cost of "This Man is from Earth" will be lower than that of "Immortality ".
The film market in North America is different from that of Huaxia, if this movie is popular at the beginning, then the theater giants will compete to release it.
If not, Tengda Media's cinema chain in Hollywood is simply not enough to generate a big box office.
Tengda Media Group, in Asia, has a total of four cinema chains, three in the mainland and one in Xiangjiang, with a total of about 1,200 cinemas and a total investment value of 2.6 billion US dollars, and has not yet really achieved a break.
It is precisely because of this that Tengda Media does not dare to buy theaters in Hollywood now, which brings too much burden to the company.
Li Feiteng seems to have unlimited scenery, but in fact, if he wants to ensure the survival of Tengda Group's cinema plan, he must ensure that within three years, there will be no heavy losses in film and television investment.
In detail, Tengda Group's largest profitable business is advertising business, with an annual turnover of more than 10 billion RMB, making it the largest online and offline advertising company in China.
However, in the film and television business, in fact, it has always been an investment, and the funds have not yet been returned.
Yanjing Feiteng 3D Film and Television Base, with an investment of 6 billion RMB.
The movie "The Legend of Wukong" has already spent 370 million US dollars, and it will take at least about 500 million US dollars to complete the production, which can create a box office miracle and whether it can make money, I really don't know.
Even if the cinema chain is a risk shared by many companies such as Wanda, Feiteng Industrial, Feiteng Technology, etc., it is connected to the lifeblood of Tengda Film and Television, and it is very important to develop the cinema market, which is also prepared for "The Legend of Wukong".
The success or failure of "The Legend of Wukong" is related to the future of Tengda's film and television industry, and even the future of Chinese films.
If the film does not reach more than $1.5 billion at the box office, Li Feiteng can actually announce the split of the film and television business and then sell the shares.
"I heard that this film is not a movie, it is a videotape left by the missing couple in their apartment. ”
"Take a good look and you might find something. ”
"The police didn't detect it, it seemed like they had filmed a ghost. ”
Today is the day that "Supernatural: Ghost Record" will be released in more than a dozen movie theaters in New York.
This movie, the people in the cinema, only tried to screen it because of Li Feiteng's identity, and the recent topic is particularly lively.
Although it is very popular, they don't think that such a movie can sell at the box office.
On the contrary, it is said that if you make a videotape, it will have a high sales.
Of course, Li Feiteng will not let go of the videotape market, in fact, the sales of Ghost Shadow's videotape may really be able to create an unpredictable price.
Because the tape is bigger, it's like seeing a video tape left by a missing couple.
Li Feiteng listened to their discussions, pressed the cap on his head down, and then followed the crowd into the movie theater.
Although the movie has already been seen. But he wanted to know how the audience reacted.
Tickets for Ghost Shadow are low. Only $10. and the local theater chain in New York adopts a 6:4 split ratio.
There is no way to do this, the cinema company will always take the lion's share.
On the other hand, videotapes are already available in Asia in Feiteng Lee's videotape factories, and the Ghost Shadow's videotapes have already begun to be produced overnight, and in less than a month, the videotapes will be sold throughout North America.
The first batch of ghost video tapes produced 5 million discs, at a cost of $6 per disc. That's $30 million.
As for the cost, it may be more than 2 million US dollars, and the profit is very considerable.
"Oh my God!"
"God, it's terrifying!"
"What a sound!"
"Oh!"
In the cinema, all kinds of people were frightened, starting with ghosts, and whenever it was night, the audience was short of breath, especially after hearing the sound of dong and seeing the various weird reactions of the heroine Ellen. I was so nervous.
Li Feiteng didn't watch the movie at all, he just paid attention to the audience. When watching this movie, the whole process of the table xiàn.
The ghost picture is very unclear and shaky, and if you can't get used to it, you will feel nausea and vomiting.
After the movie, he walked out with the audience, and everyone's expressions and reactions were very different.
However, none of them said that the movie was bad, because they didn't treat it as a movie, but as a real videotape.
"Sam, take Jack to see it again tomorrow, we can definitely find something from the movie, as long as we find clues, we will definitely be able to rescue the missing Ellen and Bert. ”
"Oh, it scares me to death, Bert is dead, oh my God, that Ellen must have been ghosted. ”
"Neither of them will die, why haven't the police found them yet!"
Li Feiteng listened to the chat of the audience around him who watched the ghosts, a smile rose on the corner of his mouth, and then strode to a Chevrolet.
After getting in the car, he called Wang Xuebin.
"Chairman. ”
"Mr. Wang, please negotiate with AMC and Warner Cinemas, and do your best to schedule ghost films in various states. ”
On the same day, the box office of 16 movie theaters in New York came out.
A total of $220,000 was sold at the box office!
16 companies, there are actually 220,000 box office, almost every movie, and the attendance rate has reached more than 9%.
The response from the audience was very good, and the booking of movie tickets was very optimistic.
AMC Cinemas in New York hurriedly reported the number to the headquarters.
At the AMC headquarters, it began to negotiate with Wang Xuebin to negotiate a new box office sharing contract.
It's a pity that the theater chain will always be the strong side, and in the end, Tengda Pictures only increased by 0.2 percentage points.
That's a 5.8:4.2 split.
But it doesn't matter, when the contract is signed, the ghost will be expanded to 500 cinemas starting next week.
If the box office is good, of course it will continue to expand, all the way to more than 1,200 cinemas.
After the ghost matter was resolved, Li Feiteng took his own special plane and returned to China.
After flying across the Pacific Ocean, he landed on the Xiangjiang River.
Because "Immortality" was released simultaneously in Hong Kong, Macao, Taiwan, and Singapore, Li Feiteng also values the overseas market, and he also believes that overseas fans can create more box office for him.
Li Feiteng, as the director and starring actor, was absent from the premiere in the mainland, and all the actors of "Immortality" are also in Xiangjiang.
Of course, he wants to have a press conference to announce the box office of "Immortality" to the world.
The box office number, except for the high-level shareholders of Tengda's headquarters, is not clear to people in the circle, including the starring role.
As with the usual box office celebrations, the box office word count made by the ice sculpture needs to be smashed by all the leading actors and directors together, so as to make a good fortune, hoping that the movies that are still on the file can break through to a new high.
Cheng Long, Fa Ge, Liang Jiahui, Zhang Manyu, and Huang Shengyi have all arrived at the press conference, while Li Feiteng is still on his way over.
Journalists have already started asking questions.
A reporter asked: Brother Cheng Long, how much is the box office of immortality in a week?
Cheng Long smiled: "I don't know either. (To be continued......)
