Chapter 100: A frightening silence
The value of a thing to a specific person is naturally determined by the scarcity of such a thing for that person. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info
For Gu Cheng, the richest man and the first handsome man in the Chinese media industry who has been in the midst of thousands of flowers and has not touched a single leaf.
Sex, naturally, is the least valuable and least lacking. Sex can fill his life as much as air as long as he wants.
Beauty is slightly better than sex, but it is also too scarce and worthless. Casual hook of hands, thousands of beautiful women casually entertained.
Love, which is more scarce than beauty, needs and deserves to let him pay attention to and care for a part of his soul.
But love is not the most lacking,
What is lacking most is spiritual mutual appreciation.
In this world, there are too few girls who can make Gu Cheng smile and naturally appreciate each other.
The slightest coincidence between "I don't really care about listening to your songs, but I accidentally hear the whole world listening to your songs" and "Actually, you don't care if you're watching my movies, but you're relieved to find that the whole world is praising my movies" is more scarce than love. It is so scarce that people who can't even take **** beauty can't understand it.
The birds flew high, and the lonely clouds went alone. I don't get tired of seeing each other, only BoA rights.
The mutual appreciation that you never get tired of seeing each other is actually much more difficult than love.
So much so that Gu Cheng was embarrassed to tarnish that appreciation with love for a while.
Therefore, this Christmas Eve did not have any "bloody disaster", and it was spent so peacefully.
Quan Baoya watched the movie quietly for more than three hours, and finally found that she couldn't say a single word of evaluation - if the generalization and expression of language are enough, what do human beings want movies for?
At least the top movies can't be summed up in a few words.
……
After playing with Gu Cheng for two days, Kwon Bo-ah went to NHK TV to prepare for the Red and White Song Party.
On Gu Cheng's side, the good news of the box office success flew like snowflakes.
"The box office on the first day of Christmas Eve exceeded 400 million yen. ”
On Christmas Day, it soared to 530 million yen, with a total box office of 900 million in 48 hours of release, and the cumulative number of moviegoers exceeded one million. ”
The distributor, Toho Pictures, is also one of the main cinema chains of the film, and has hundreds of TOHO theaters in the whole of Fuso, so the box office statistics are very easy to obtain.
After getting the data, the senior management of the distribution department of Toho Pictures was extremely excited. Such a good result is very rare in recent years.
900 million yen!
In the summer of 2005, before the renminbi entered the appreciation channel, it was equivalent to 63 million yuan or 8.5 million U.S. dollars at an exchange rate of about 14 yuan.
In the past 04 years, "The Lord of the Rings 3", known as "the second best Oscar best picture in human film history", had a global box office of $1.1 billion (the first was "Titanic")
In the coming 05 years, the global box office of the Oscar-winning picture "Million Dollar Baby" is $220 million.
Of course, this may not be a problem, after all, except for the years when "Titanic" and "The Lord of the Rings" appeared, the best-grossing commercial films of the year were not the ones that won the most awards.
But a film that is positioned as a literary film and a film that educates the world and shows the way, and at the same time achieves a great box office, is definitely an aura that shocks its peers.
As far as the domestic market of Fuso is concerned, if the final domestic box office of a film exceeds 5 billion yen, it can be ranked in the top 20 in the entire history of Fuso films, and if it exceeds 10 billion yen, it can be ranked in the top 10.
The "first weekend" was 900 million in two days, which is properly destined for this film to easily lock in the top 20 in history and is very hopeful to enter the top 10 in history.
Dongbao Pictures naturally reported the relevant data to the major relevant media for the first time, in order to strengthen publicity and momentum.
Gu Cheng didn't want this film to make money, and he also knew that the investment was small, so he gave the distributor a higher share ratio, so that Dongbao Pictures was happy to fight for his own interests.
What's even more rare is that with the soaring box office, the film's reputation has not declined like other overmarketed films.
The vast majority of awesome movies, because after there are more people touting it and after the inertia of word-of-mouth marketing is formed, some people who are unconventional will feel tired and bored with alcohol, and they will rebelliously black. But "Sunset in the Three Chomes" didn't even know how to hack people's mouths.
"I've never seen a movie that resonates with me so much, and it's not pretentious. ”
"I saw it in the movie. ”
"I've been blowing up tempura for twenty years, and I've always suspected that tempura can't be fried, but now I believe it. McDonald's automatic fryer!"
"I'm a sushi chef who has just come out of school, and I thought I was a bit old-fashioned and would only squeeze me. After watching the film, the master invited me to drink once, and we reconciled. ”
"I watched Muneshin Kimura play the tea ceremony, and I thought he was a pretend, but after watching the movie, I realized that my original vision was too naïve. ”
"The broken fragments and wreckage can be so beautiful, and finally a new way of living, a new way of doing things. I think Kazuo Inamori should learn from Gu Cheng how to behave. ”
"I used to see so many people like it, I was tired of watching it, and I wanted to go dark. Because others blew it, I thought it was a literary film that pretended to be forced to make people unintelligible. But after watching it, I realized that there were outliers in literary films that made herbivore men see how to live...... How do I squirt this?"
"I used to think that the phrase 'there have been rulers in the history of mankind who were very popular with both workers and capitalists, such as the Führer,' was the boast of the batons. But since there can be a work in this world like "Sunset in the Three Chomes" that convinces both literary and artistic youths and young people on the street, what is impossible about the previous proposition?"
The tears that should be earned have been earned, both literary and artistic youths, and those who hit the streets.
After making the tears money, after breaking the beauty to others, it left a trace of the illusion of life that made the eliminated dicks on the street endless, and the realm of making money was different.
The number of users of YY Asia has been led to great development in this Christmas file.
Because of Sun Zhengyi's SoftBank and Yahoo Fuso's banning, many mainstream online media are not easy to find resonant communities that praise "Sunset at Three Chome", and the needs of people who have watched the movie to write their experiences and post movie tickets cannot be vented.
In the end, those netizens naturally thought of posting their experiences on YY.com, and begged for onlookers to like it. In this herbivorous country with a declining economy and confusion, I have found a harbor to huddle together for warmth.
Originally, before December 24, the number of users of YY Asia in Fuso was 650,000, and in Dongyi was 400,000. Just two days later, on December 26, when YY Asia counted the background data, it reached 760,000, and by New Year's Day, it exceeded 1 million, and then gradually slowed down.
Toho Pictures' own TOHO cinema line has almost increased the scheduling rate of "Sunset in the Three Chomes" to an outrageous 80%, which makes all of Fuso's peers envious to death.
Although other major cinema chains in Fusang will not be like Dongbao because of the high publicity and distribution of films, they will not be unable to get along with the profits of the cinema chain itself, and a scheduling rate of more than 60% is a must. At the peak of the holiday, the number of screens of the film in Fusang exceeded 5,000.
This series of winds has helped the fire to rise, making this week-long New Year's holiday very murderous at the box office. 900 million in two days, 1.5 billion in three days, and 2.7 billion in one week......
On January 3rd, a Monday, which was also the first working day after the New Year's Day holiday, the box office of "Sunset in Sanchome" was fixed at 4 billion yen.
As everyone returned to work, the growth rate of the box office has obviously declined, and only the evening stalls are still hot every day, providing at least 100 million yen of box office every night.
And what makes the production, publicity, and theaters very gratifying is that the nightlife tolerance brought by "Sunset in Sanchome" is obviously much higher than other movies in the same period.
Originally, unless the midnight show in the past two years was a restricted-level film, it would be difficult to have a high box office, because the people of Fusang were under great pressure and few people had the energy to stay up late to watch literary films. But "Sunset at Sanchome" made TOHO Cinemas tempted to try to continue the film in large numbers at midnight on weekdays.
In the end, the attendance rate was higher than those H small movies, and then other theaters also followed up to ensure a high attendance rate of at least 3 shows a day, and even from the second half of the night to 3 o'clock in the morning, 20% of the seats can be occupied. In the second half of the night, he can also earn 30 or 40 million yen for the film.
It is said that this time has made it quite difficult for those *** directors and stars of Fusang these days. Teacher Ozawa and Teacher Hatano lamented one after another: The drought and the waterlogging of the waterlogging, they have already blocked the gods and Buddhas to kill the Buddhas, Gu Cheng, are you still embarrassed to rob the sisters of the hard-earned money of selling meat?
After five working days, a total of 900 million yen was earned at the box office, plus the previous cumulative 4 billion, "Sunset in the Three Chomes" has entered the "Top 20 Box Office Club in the History of Fuso Films".
And this film has only been released for half a month.
On January 9th and 10th, another weekend after the start of the holiday, all the film industry observers were speculating that "this weekend will be a few percent lower than the average daily box office during the original long holiday", but it turned out to be a slap in the face again.
Because there is no obvious "holiday average daily box office recession", it is still soaring at about 500 million per day.
The same was true for the week that followed, until the weekend of January 17, when the single-day box office slowly fell to more than 300 million a day, about 30% lower than when it was at its most popular, and the pattern continued in the following weeks.
By the end of January, the box office data exceeded 8.5 billion.
On February 8, when the neighboring countries of Huaxia and Dongyi celebrated the Spring Festival, the box office of Fusang accumulated 9.3 billion. In March, when the film was released in Fuso, the final box office was fixed at 11.7 billion yen, squeezing out the 11 billion old film "Antarctic Story", and finally ranked 5th at the box office of Fuso Film and Television.
But it's a pity that Toho Pictures just launched an annual blockbuster anime production "Howl's Moving Castle" two months before the release of "Sunset in Sanchome".
Relying on the high single ticket price of anime special effects dramas (movie tickets in Fuso special effects anime are very expensive, so the easiest ones to rush the box office are cartoons, which can also be regarded as Fuso's national conditions), "Howl's Moving Castle" won 19.5 billion yen at the box office when the number of moviegoers was only slightly higher than that of "Sunset in Sanchome".
From this point of view, "Sunset of the Three Chomes" can be regarded as "born at an inopportune time", and in the end, in Fuso, it only hit the "second place at the annual box office".
However, this achievement has also surpassed the third work of the year, the "Goddess of Fuso Drama" Masami Nagasawa's famous masterpiece "Calling Love in the Center of the World" by 3 billion yen.
What's more, compared with other Fuso films, "Sunset in Sanchome" has an additional advantage:
This is not a movie that only Fuso people will watch.
As the wheel of history rolls into 2005, before the winter vacation, Dongyi and Fusang have successively introduced this movie.
The Fuso background of the film, with its universal significance, has become unimportant. The Dongyi people, who are also struggling with the homogenization Matthew effect, also need such chicken soup to give their souls a second longer.
