Chapter 55: "Monster Hunt" Released (Fifth Update)

Shen Lin has always been very confident in himself since the beginning of filming, nonsense, with the blessing of the memory of the original time and space, no more self-confidence, like words?

"Monster Hunt" is now the work in which Zhao Liying's studio occupies the largest share of investment.

changed the actors, and the investment was greater.

He has reason to believe that this version of "Monster Hunt" will be more successful at the box office.

However, the publicity of this kind of thing must be in place as much as possible!

Therefore, Shen Lin put forward the strategy of 'selling miserably'.

There are too many stories to tell behind "Monster Hunt", so he dared to 'sell miserably' in front of so many people.

Of course, the quality of the movie itself must be excellent, otherwise no matter how miserable Shen Lin sells, it will be impossible to succeed!

The strategy was very successful, and the "Monster Hunt" chapter of "Running Man" was broadcast on July 10, and on the same day, the search volume for Huba and "Monster Hunt" skyrocketed.

……

The story of "Monster Hunt" is very simple, that is, the young man Tianyin accidentally became pregnant with the little demon king who was about to come into the world, and he was protected by the demon master Xiaolan all the way to avoid all kinds of monsters.

The reason why Xiaolan protects Tianyin is to sell Huba for a good price...

Of course, the end of the story must be that the two of them work together to save Huba.

Typical DreamWorks-esque anime ending.

Typical structural patterns of family carnivals.

In order to ensure the publicity effect, Jiang Zhiqiang and Shen Lin temporarily decided to increase the roadshow of "Monster Hunt" from the previous 13 to 20, and concentrated in second- and third-tier cities.

Not only that, Dong Zijian's advertising company also came in handy, and they laid the cinema lines in the fourth- and fifth-tier cities.

In short, the cost of publicity has directly increased from the previous 100 million to 800 million, plus the cost of 400 million.

The cumulative cost of "Monster Hunt" has reached 200 million!

"If I lose this time, I won't make movies in the future!"

Shen Lin invested 200 million, Jiang Zhiqiang also paid close to 200 million, and the rest was invested by Dong Zijian and some other idle small foundations.

"Don't worry, I won't let my money go down the drain!"

Shen Lin assured.

On Thursday, July 16, "Monster Hunt" ushered in its premiere.

The box office is beautiful!

On the first day of release, "Monster Hunt" set a new record for the highest first-day box office of a Chinese film with a box office score of 1.1 billion!

directly broke the previous record of 7.8 billion on the first day held by "Chinatown Veteran".

Of course, compared with the box office record of nearly 400 million on the first day of release of "Furious 7", there is still a bit of a gap.

On the second day of release, the box office almost unchanged, winning 1.7 billion, the box office on Friday should have been higher than that on Thursday, but there was no way, Dapeng's "Pancake Man" was released, and it directly divided nearly 30% of the film schedule.

"Pancake Man" is Wanda's own son, which is jointly invested and distributed by Sohu and Wanda, and Wanda must take care of a lot in terms of film scheduling.

In addition, the popularity of "The Return of the Great Sage" has not decreased.

Although "Monster Hunt" occupies the first place in the film schedule, with nearly 40% of the film schedule, in fact, it is not too different from the number of screenings of "Monster Hunt".

Fortunately, the popularity of "Pancake Man" is not too high, and within four days of its release, it 'only' grabbed a box office of nearly 400 million.

"Monster Hunt" reported 1.9 billion in the first week, and won the box office champion of the week without any accidents.

"The Return of the Great Sage", under the attack of two new films, still relied on the powerful 'tap water' to get a box office result of 200 million, and successfully pushed the cumulative box office to 600 million.

"The Chinese mainland film market produces 600 million box office!

set a record for the highest box office in a single week in history, and the summer file successfully defeated the Spring Festival file, and a new record was born.

The single-week box office hit a new high, and at the same time Saturday (July 18) also created a single-day record of 200 million yuan, which is inseparable from the box office performance of the three major heroes of "Monster Hunt", "Pancake Man", and "Journey to the West: The Return of the Great Sage", among which "Monster Hunt" also won the first week box office championship of mainland domestic films with a score of 1.9 billion in the first week. ”

"Every year from June 10th to July 10th is the traditional domestic film protection month, which is already an unwritten practice in the industry, during this period, the import of overseas blockbusters is not encouraged, which makes several domestic films such as "Monster Hunt" avoid the competition of Hollywood imported blockbusters, and with the help of the summer file, it is logical that the box office is a big hit. ”

……

The three movies "Monster Hunt", "Pancake Man" and "The Return of the Great Sage" exploded at the box office, and Shen Lin was very happy, not only because he made money.

According to the current box office trend, "Monster Hunt" is likely to get a box office of 2.5 billion, as the largest investor, he can get a share of nearly 400 million, and a movie earns 200 million!

In terms of "The Return of the Great Sage", he can also get at least 80 million shares!

Of course, I will be happy that the investment has paid off, and the main reason is that with the big sales of the three films, the previous "Small Times 4" and "Gardenia Blossom" have dropped to less than five percent in an instant, and not only that, but the box office revenue is also negligible.

This is a classic example of good money driving out bad money.

It shows that our audience is sensible, and if there is a choice, they will never watch bad movies!

There are only a few really brain-dead audiences, and when the directors make a movie with their hearts, the audience will watch the movie with an appreciative attitude!

……

"Monster Hunt" is in full swing, several leading actors are running around the world to promote, and as an investor in the movie, Shen Lin also flies everywhere.

Today is July 24, and the Modu station is promoted.

The box office of "Monster Hunt" successfully exceeded 1.5 billion in eight days after its release, and the box office exceeded 100 million for eight consecutive days.

The business car carried several main creators and Shen Lin.

"It seems that your appeal is really strong!"

Hu Ge looked at Weibo and said with emotion: "My fans are all saying that they watched "Monster Hunt" because of you!"

"I didn't do it. ”

Shen Lin rolled his eyes.

In the past few days, Shen Lin found that Hu Ge was indeed a very good person, and the values of the two were very similar.

"You didn't even participate, you're better than me!"

Shen Lin noticed that Hu Ge's expression was a little lonely, it stands to reason that he is the absolute starring role in "Monster Hunt", but when it was promoted, the main focus was Zhao Liying plus Shen Lin.

Even Huba has a higher level of attention than him!

"When your "The Pretender" and "Lang Bang" are released, you will know what it means to return the king!"

Indeed, the broadcast of the two TV series directly made Hu Ge the undisputed king of the small screen faction, attracting countless fans.

“… How do you know I'm going to have these two TV series on the air?"

Hu Ge looked at Shen Lin seriously: "Have you been secretly crushing on me?"

"Get out! I don't have any friends until I have no friends! I have 18% of Dongyang's shares in the afternoon, and they will ask my opinion before starting to shoot each work, and your Mei Changsu is recommended by me!"

“… Thank you!"

"You're welcome, the first TV series that anyone asked me to watch was "The Legend of Sword and Fairy"!"

"Is "The Legend of Sword and Fairy" really the first TV series you watched?"

Zhao Liying also joined the discussion.

"Of course not, it's the only TV series I watched in its entirety for the last time, and I can't watch the current TV series!

Seeing that the topic was about to change to worrying about my country's TV drama industry, Zhao Liying suddenly proposed: "Hu Ge, do you want to come to our studio?"
