Chapter 454: Harvest of '09

It takes a process to go from obscurity to being appreciated, for "The Adventures of Li Xianji", He Mu's recommendation shortened the process, He Mu believes that even without him, this animation will win the love of netizens with its own hard power, and ferment into an unprecedentedly powerful word-of-mouth storm, but he shortened this time.

When everyone unanimously praised this animation as the best animation in 10 years, no one will forget that a big star recommended it, including the original author of the animation.

He Mu didn't see Shishi when she was in the Tiger Wolf Company, she has been too busy recently, "Fairy Sword 3" has gone through a large round of local station broadcasts, and she is finally going to enter the satellite TV station to see the real chapter, she needs to obey the arrangements of the Tang people to do some publicity work, in addition, Tiger Wolf's 10-year key project "Step by Step Shocking" will be launched soon, Shishi must be ready to join the group at any time, Datang He Mu and Shishi have determined the time for the reshoot of the last scene of "Brake Horse Town", and it will be completed as soon as possible, so that the two can continue the next work without worry.

In the afternoon, Xu Jinglei and Zhang Yibai came to Shuimu together, and watched the finished film of "Du Lala's Promotion" with He Mu and Shuimu senior management in the small screening room.

The film as a whole is more textured, and it is a rare kind of fashionable love film in China. If you don't study the plot in detail, it still looks more comfortable, and Lao Xu's directing skills make the mediocre script "Durala" interesting. This is definitely the best choice to attract petty bourgeois audiences, but it is estimated that it will not be liked by Wenqing, so the most popular online score may not be high, because Douban, Time and other rating sites are in their hands.

After the screening, the screening room resounded with sparse applause, and He Mu saw that Lao Xu was expressionless, and he didn't know whether he was satisfied or dissatisfied. After entering He Mu's office. He Mu proposed to Lao Xu Zhang Yibai that the movie be released in March and April, so that it can dominate a small schedule and the competition intensity is small.

Originally, Zhang Yibai also wanted to get involved in the Spring Festival. Those who are a little ambitious know the benefits of mixing up the schedule, but when He Mu said that he had selected a movie to be released around the Spring Festival, Zhang Yibai also dispelled this idea, although in his opinion, "Durala" has enough gimmicks. Competitiveness should not be underestimated. But sandwiched in the middle of so many blockbusters, and it is indeed a bit rushed, even if there should be a box office of 100 million, it may only end up being 80 million, which is a bit more than worth the loss, so I obeyed He Mu's arrangement.

Before leaving, Zhang Yibai asked He Mu if the TV series was made into a movie, would he have any trouble. As the producer of two movies with more than 100 million yuan, He Mu has gradually won the reputation of "film gold hand". People say that the success of "Very Perfect" and "Glass Heart" is inseparable from He Mu's good vision, so much so that Zhang Yibai, an old filmmaker, will also learn from He Mu, who made the movies he has made in his life not have a good box office for a year.

"As far as I know, "Wulin Gaiden" is rumored to have a plan to make a movie, which has aroused the excitement of fans, I think it should not be a problem for the box office to exceed 100 million, so whether there is a head depends on the influence of the original TV series, if you want to shoot the love version of "Carry Love to the End", I believe it will not be worse than "Wulin Gaiden", He Mu said, he smelled a little clue from Yao Chen's Weibo, it seems that Shang Jing intends to plan the big movie "Wulin Gaiden", He Mu has not finished speaking, "However, there are also examples of failure, such as " The days of living with a flight attendant", so only influence is not enough, if the TV series adaptation wants to succeed, the director, actor, screenwriter and timing, none of these elements can be missing. ”

It's a little embarrassing to say this to an old filmmaker, but Zhang Yibai is very teachable, "Thank you for your advice." It seems that he did have the idea of making a movie version of "Will Love".

"Director Zhang can come to Shuimu at any time if he has any financial problems, I also watched "Will Love" to spend my adolescence ten years ago." He Mu said very sincerely, "Carry on Love to the End" is indeed of great significance to people of their age, Zhang Yibai nodded after hearing it.

After leaving, Lao Xu asked Zhang Yibai, "Lao Bai, do you really want to shoot the movie version of "Will Love"?" Why didn't you tell me? ”

"I also made a temporary decision, Lao Xu, I think we should contact Yapeng, this film can't do without you, and it can't do without him." Zhang Yibai said seriously.

At night, He Mu pinched Zilin's shoulder and back, and said flattering words, and finally persuaded his wife to help him check the accounts, but the body of his wife and children is still the most important, seeing that the time was almost ten o'clock, He Mu hurriedly stopped Zilin, "It's okay, it's bedtime, this account is not in a hurry, let's get it tomorrow." ”

"It's okay, just one more point, husband, your company made a lot of money last year, and the profit level is very high." Zhang Zilin said enviously, what she was thinking about now was when she and Elena Xiao Yueyue's Ai Linyue could also achieve this scale.

"It's our company," He Mu kissed his wife and corrected, and then couldn't help but ask curiously, "How much did you earn?" In fact, the account has been calculated by the company, He Mu only needs to check whether there is any greasy, but he is not good at numbers, so he didn't see the most Lu Dao at all, and I don't know how much the company finally earned last year.

Zilin turned to the back page, "As of December 31, 09, the company's total revenue was 88.1 million, and the total expenditure was 33.5 million. ”

Shuimu Forest only has the business of film, and the 30.5 million yuan spent includes the largest film production and distribution expenses, the most helpless tax expenses and inevitable administrative costs, including human salaries, office costs, public relations expenses, etc., compared with the huge income, this is not a problem.

The total income of 82.1 million is the sum of the income of the three films without removing the cost, which is also Mizuki's only source of income.

Night. "Shop" made a good start for Shuimu Forest, the production cost of more than two million plus publicity and distribution was less than five million, and the advertising placement saved more than two million for the cost of the film, and the final box office was 56 million, as the producer and distributor, Shuimu Forest can get 43% of the box office, which is the harvest of 24 million. As an excellent comedy that has aroused wide resonance, it is deeply loved by the people, and has made good progress in the fields of movie channels and DVD sales. The on-demand rate of "Shop" is now high in long-distance buses, but most of them are pirated, and Mizuki can really get not much money, and the company has also responded to relevant departments, including the problem of online piracy, but the relevant departments have pushed two four six, and it has not been solved so far.

Overall, so far, Night. "Shop" brought 27.4 million revenue to the company (before deducting costs and expenses), including box office revenue, advertising revenue, DVD revenue, derivative copyrights, etc., which can be called a model of small soldiers' great achievements, and the company's team is still thinking about how to squeeze its surplus value. Selling them at the reserve price is also a small profit.

"Very Perfect" is the film that Shuimu Forest earns the least, with a total investment of 30 million (including Zhang Ziyi's discounted salary), a mainland box office of 108 million, and a profit of more than 10 million at the box office.

This movie Mizuki only invested 2 million, accounting for 6.77% of the total investment, and can enjoy 15% of the mainland box office revenue, but does not participate in the sharing of overseas and other copyright derivative income, fortunately, this form of distribution was chosen, the overseas box office of "Very Perfect" is very average, even bad, far less popular than the mainland, even in the Korean market, which has high hopes, there are only more than 100,000 moviegoers, and the box office can only exceed one million yuan. In addition, Mizuki is also one of the distributors of "Very Perfect", and with this part of the income, the film only brought 4.3 million revenue to the company, which is less than "Night. Shop", and it is a one-time income, but this movie is the first 100 million yuan movie produced by Mizuki, and the impact on the company's fame when the box office exceeded 100 million is no longer measurable by money.

To say that the most successful and made great contributions to the company is "Glass Heart", the cost of this film is less, the production and publicity are only 15 million, and the advertising placement has also recovered a little cost, but it is not as good as "Night. The final box office is the highest of the three films in Shuimu Forest, as high as 115 million, ranking 13th in the mainland box office list in 09, this film is independently funded and distributed by Shuimu, and the company gets a share of 49 million from the box office.

The box office of "Glass Heart" is Mizuki's largest income in 09 years, in addition, "Glass Heart" also successfully sold North American rights and adaptation rights, earning 800,000 US dollars, about 5 million yuan, in addition to North America, "Glass Heart" also entered the Japanese and South Korean markets, basically did not make money, it is considered to have paid tuition, and has won word of mouth and attention, expanded its overseas influence, and is not a loss, as well as regular DVD distribution, TV station copyright sales and other income, a total of 2.4 million, this part of the income " "Glass Hearts" is better than "Night. The shop is strong, after all, the influence is there.

To sum up, the revenue brought by "Glass Heart" to the company totaled 56.4 million, excluding costs.
