92. Win or lose
(The last two days have been very busy, and there is only time to code words in the evening, so there is only this one today, but I will take the time to make up for it on the weekend.) )
Looking at the box office data in his hand, Feng Xiaogang smiled wryly and couldn't help shaking his head.
"What's the matter, isn't this box office stat very good? Now the media outside are advocating that you and that kid named Ye Sumang will have a dragon fight. Wang Zhonglei, who is also a partner and chairman of Huayi Brothers, looked at Feng Xiaogang who shook his head and sighed puzzled, and didn't understand that he had to look sad to achieve such a good result.
"I know my movie, in fact, when I watched "No Thieves in the World", I felt that I was going to lose at the box office this time, and now it seems that this is indeed the case." Feng Xiaogang shook his head and said the reason for his cognition.
In Feng Xiaogang's view, he was able to achieve such a good box office income on the first day, firstly, because of the constant hype of the media before, and secondly, his own appeal, and the theaters he released were about 500 screens more than Ye Sumang. But even so, he can only make a tie with Ye Sumang's movie, as a top domestic director, this has already been lost.
And looking at the crazy box office trend of no thieves in the world in the past few days, Feng Xiaogang no longer dares to predict what situation the box office of this movie will reach, he only knows that his movie will lose, and I am afraid that it will lose very badly.
"Lao Feng, don't be so pessimistic, it is still unknown who will kill the deer, let's just wait and see what happens!" Wang Zhonglei didn't expect Feng Xiaogang to defeat a cutting-edge director's film without a fight, and he also had a trace of curiosity about Ye Sumang and his world film and television.
Not to mention how bitter Feng Xiaogang is, Ye Sumang's head has already exploded, and the employees in the company have been in and out recently, with big smiles on their faces, who made the box office of "No Thieves in the World" only 4 days, it has already exceeded 20 million Huaxia coins, and if it goes on like this, there will be a big breakthrough at the box office in the next three days, and the red envelopes sent by the company will definitely be very rich.
And such a strong box office also brought them a full sense of honor, now walking in the floor, many employees of other companies are looking at them with envy, and some of the bold will ask two sentences, when they learn that their company shoots the world without thieves, those people's faces will show a surprised face, the feeling of admiration and envy also makes these employees very proud.
"Energetic!" Ye Sumang passed by the corridor with a smile, watching several employees holding large boxes back and forth, and couldn't help but sigh with a smile.
"Mr. Ye is good!" Several employees passed by Ye Sumang's side, no matter how much work they had in hand, they would pause, nod their heads before leaving, and they now admired this little boy from the bottom of their hearts.
The good box office coupled with Jiang Xin, an actor with both strength and appearance, joined the company, Ye Sumang is in a really good mood now, after returning to the office, he suddenly thought of something, so he made a phone call with a smile on his face, and soon, Ning Hao hurriedly ran into Ye Sumang's office.
"Yezi, I'm still busy, I'll talk about something soon." The company bought a new batch of photographic equipment, Ning Hao was checking it with love, who would have thought that Ye Sumang would call him on the phone, and said that this matter must be said in person, he had to reluctantly put down the latest camera and hurriedly ran over.
"Good thing!" Ye Sumang said with a smile: "Do you want to be a director independently?" ”
"What?" The impatience on Ning Hao's original face suddenly turned into an expression of disbelief.
"Let you be a director, you don't really want to do this job for me for the rest of your life, do you?" Ye Sumang smiled, letting Ning Hao be independent He has been thinking about it for a long time, and he feels that the time is ripe now, and the company is indeed short of directors.
Ye Sumang said it simply, but stopping in Ning Hao's ears made this fat boy's head blank for a while, director, these two words he dreamed of countless times in his dreams, but after the opportunity was really placed in front of him, his heart felt full of complexity.
"Ye Zi, I'm going to be a director, what should the camera crew do?" Ning Hao wanted to be independent, but he felt that he couldn't do without Ye Sumang, they had been together for more than a year, and the two had always been gold partners, and now they suddenly separated the two, in fact, not only Ning Hao was reluctant, but Ye Sumang's heart was also reluctant.
"Bai Ge, that kid has understanding, there's nothing wrong with letting him take your place. And it's not right away that you become an independent director, you have to come up with a script that satisfies me. ”
"That's no problem! I thought about the script when I looked back! With an excited smile on his face, Ning Hao hurriedly left Ye Sumang's office again, but this time he didn't run to the photography department, but went directly to his cabin and thought hard about the script.
In the next three days, the box office of "No Thieves in the World" and "Mobile Phone" has always been the focus of media attention, but soon everyone was disappointed, the box office of "Mobile Phone" is very good, and it will exceed 10 million in four days, but compared with the box office of 30 million a week "No Thieves in the World", it is not a little bit worse.
Many pro-Feng media began to make excuses for the big director, but none of them found fault with the film, but they all accidentally pointed the box office gap to the investment of the two.
"No Thieves in the World" invested a total of 30 million, and "Mobile Phone" only invested 7 million, it can be said that Liu Dehua's salary in "No Thieves in the World" is worth the investment in the entire film of "Mobile Phone", they make a proportion according to the investment in tickets and the profit of the box office, and think that "Mobile Phone" will still surpass "No Thieves in the World" in terms of profits.
However, Ye Sumang smiled disdainfully after reading such a report, even Feng Xiaogang, who was far away from Kyoto, was the same, he was not a person who couldn't afford to lose, the box office data was there, no matter how much he shirked it, he was still defeated, he knew this very well, and he generously admitted it to everyone.
However, soon, the media's statement had no foothold, "No Thieves in the World" after the first week of the box office of 30 million, the second week did not decrease but increased, reaching a week of 45 million income, the total box office income also reached an astonishing 75 million, this is only two weeks of box office income, according to the world without thieves There is still nearly a month of release period, the box office of this film will be able to reach a very amazing number at that time.
As for "Mobile Phone", which was regarded as an opponent before, under the suppression of "No Thieves in the World", it also earned 25 million box office in eleven days, which is definitely a good result in previous years, and maybe it will be the box office champion of the Chinese New Year, but this year, the dark horse of "No Thieves in the World" made this originally good result immediately dusty.
