Chapter 319: Sneaky Peace

On October 25, Golden Harvest will draw "Plan A" in theaters.

After the box office of this movie exceeded 10 million, it was released for nearly ten days, compared with the film's rise at the beginning, it only won less than 3 million box office in these ten days, and the total box office can be more than 14 million.

If it were in the past, this box office result would definitely be worth Zou Wenhuai's feast and publicity. It's a pity that "Plan A" is far less popular than "True Colors of Heroes", which has a box office performance of nearly 26 million.

It's just that Ye Jingcheng gave it an extra period of time, and it was only a matter of time before it broke through the box office of 30 million. Even if Ye Jingcheng takes a shortcut to brush up on one or two million box office, his honor as a 30 million producer is well deserved.

So it's not that "Plan A" isn't shining enough, it's only that "The True Colors of Heroes" is more eye-catching than it. "Plan A" was removed from the screen, and "Killer Trench" relayed the former as promised.

Zou Wenhuai probably doesn't know where he is now, resentful or cursing Ye Jingcheng, what kind of freak is this kid?

When Hong Kong Island generally grossed 1 million, he created the first 10 million box office.

By the time the box office average has risen to three or four million, his films have exceeded 20 million at the box office. Before the average box office line rises to 5 million, a box office of 30 million is about to explode.

At the same time, when Shaw Brothers did enough publicity, "Blade Runner" also landed in its theaters. Let the outside world seem that this war without gunpowder has nothing to do with the green lantern, but the battle between Golden Harvest and the two major companies of Shaw Brothers.

Both sides have maximized their advantages, the appeal of Jiahetong Guò Chenglong, and the use of various publicity methods by Shaw Brothers have made the audience seats of the two cinemas not bursting, but the movie tickets have been sold out.

The biggest reason is the scalpers, who are very flexible animals.

And these scalpers found unlimited business opportunities for reselling movie tickets from "The True Colors of Heroes", which was released in southern theaters. Seeing such a big move by the two major film companies, I think there is a limit to how bad the film is, right? So they smelled it one after another.

However, Golden Harvest and Shaw Brothers did not do what Green Lantern did, restricting purchases to achieve the maximum possible restriction on scalpers. may be in their hearts, the emergence of scalpers is not related to the operation of the theater chain, as long as they can sell all the movie tickets.

On this day, Lei Juekun invited Ye Jingcheng to the Peninsula Hotel for afternoon tea and discussed the actions of the two major film companies. After all, the audience flocked to the cinemas of Golden Harvest and Shaw Brothers to consume, and the flow of people for Green Lantern and Golden Princess would naturally decrease.

The box office of "The True Colors of Heroes" dropped by three percent on the same day, which does not seem to be much, but in fact, the box office of "The True Colors of Heroes" has begun to be weak, after all, the one-month release period is enough to squeeze its potential to seventy-seven eighty-eight.

Now the box office is only more than 600,000 per day, and if you subtract 30%, it is not even 500,000, and the film wants to break through the box office of 30 million as desired, which will undoubtedly increase the release time by several days.

Ye Jingcheng's advice is to go with the flow, even if Jiahe or Shaw Brothers have any unfavorable actions against them, they can only come to cover up the water now.

Unless they draw "The True Color of Heroes" in advance, not to mention whether they can find a movie in the town, do they want Ye Jingcheng to give up 30 million results?

For Lei Juekun, if the box office can exceed 30 million, although there is no substantial gain for him, but as a party united with Qinglantern, Princess Jin also has a position to declare sovereignty with Jiahe and Shaw Brothers.

In this way, the two did not continue the topic again. Lei Juekun originally had such a plan, asking Ye Jingcheng to brush up on the box office of one or two million at the end of the day, and directly advance the next time of "The True Color of Heroes".

But think about it, how much does this affect his reputation, even if the outside world acknowledges him as a 30 million producer.

In addition, the operation of the two cinema chains is still profitable, although the number of profits is not large, but the income from this period of time is added. At least 20 million profits were brought to the golden princess, the largest of which was a box office of four or six points.

The second is the 'rent' paid by the Southern Cinema Line before operating the periphery, borrowing the platform of the Golden Princess, and finally the theater's own operation, the amount of drinks and snacks is like gathering sand into a tower, and this one alone has earned three or five million, so not to mention that the theater is still profitable, he is willing to take a proper ride from Lei Juekun.

There is another thing worth mentioning, that is, in addition to the two major companies of Shaw Brothers and Golden Harvest, Ye Jingcheng also pays attention to an overlooked object - Anle Film Company.

The boss of this company and Jiang Zhiwen, Ye Jingcheng already has a preliminary understanding of him, and he may lack ability, but his ambition is definitely no less than anyone else.

Even if he didn't have the box office appeal of Ruchenglong, and the means and resources of publicity were not as good as Shaw Brothers, he still chose to quietly participate in this war.

The movie recently released by Broadway theaters is a movie full of Hong Kong flavor in translation, called "Uncle is in Trouble". The film is not a big investment, and the two starring actors include Jayne. Vader and Richard Pryor weren't big stars at this time.

But this movie also has its strengths because it is a pure comedy. The story of two little people who are mistaken for a bank robbery is the background, and the story of a prison cowboy competition successfully escaped, coupled with the process of escaping from prison in layers of progress.

By placing the characters in an environment that doesn't belong to them, they create jokes that people don't need to understand the language too much, and they can understand it simply and directly.

At present, Hollywood's science fiction films are indeed popular, and the premise is that there must be a perfect story, reasonable logic and the audience's recognition. Otherwise, a hammer in the east and a stick in the west may not be able to compare with some small-cost systems.

Among the low-budget movies, comedy films are the easiest to get ahead. This is also the reason why he is low-key, Jiang Zhiwen is not competing with the two major companies for the box office, but waiting for Golden Harvest and Shaw Brothers to 'hit the street' by themselves.

Because there is a certain risk in releasing science fiction films, it does not mean that Shaw Brothers and Golden Harvest will definitely step on this risk. If a classic Hollywood blockbuster is really released, the result is not at all something he can resist.

If An Le declares war on the two major companies in advance, it will naturally be good to be able to do what he wants, which will also help him personally and the company's reputation, and he can even eat the box office of the two companies in a grand manner.

On the contrary, if either Golden Harvest and Shaw Brothers came up with a classic Hollywood blockbuster, wouldn't Jiang Zhiwen shoot himself in the foot? Not to mention the indirect Shao Yifu and Zou Wenhuai.

Compared with these two tycoons, there is still a long way to go in terms of level. Naturally, I don't want to offend the other party for no reason, otherwise the other party really wants to attack him, and it may not be useful to move out his old beans. (To be continued.) )
