Chapter 540: Look at me and ignore you!
……
Half past six in the afternoon, in Shumi's studio. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info
In Feng Chang's office, Feng Chang and Qiao Jun sat together, seriously discussing things related to "The Hangover", and also checked some data that had just been asked from the Film Association, frowning: "...... "The Hangover" has been released since the early hours of this morning, but the results are not ideal!" It's been 18 hours now, 2,501 theaters have been released, the box office is only 8.22 million, and the average attendance rate is 30......"
"Hey...... This situation is really not good......" Qiao Jun replied in a calm voice.
As the head of the film and television department, he is naturally the best at analyzing films.
Among the Chinese New Year blockbusters released in the Spring Festival this year, "The Hangover" is much weaker than other movies, and it is obviously a lot worse in terms of film scheduling. Although Shumi Studio tried its best to communicate, in the end, it only managed to win 2,501 theaters, and each theater averaged two screenings a day.
The schedule of "The Hangover" is a little worse, but the 2501 theaters and only 8.22 million on the first day did hit the streets, and it was not an ordinary fight, if you compare it with the other six Chinese New Year blockbusters, it will be a pounce!
According to the data transmitted by the Film Association, among the other six films released on the first day of the Lunar New Year this year, the highest box office is the all-star lineup of martial arts comedy "Ouchi Secret Agent: Jianghu Fengyun", which was released in 3515 theaters, and the box office has exceeded 40.23 million, with an average attendance rate of 85%, and the box office is expected to break 50 million in 24 hours.
In second place is the drama comedy "Meng Bao Chuang Yanjing 2". This film starring the famous Meng Bao sisters Xiaoxiao and Xiaofei's original team, continues to implement the cute and hilarious style, with a total of 3475 theaters, and an 18-hour box office of 39.42 million, with an average attendance rate of 86%, and a 24-hour box office of more than 50 million.
As for the sci-fi comedy "Super Detective 3" in the third place, the Xianxia comedy "Amazing Fairy Story" in the fourth place, and the box office of "The Girl's Fantasy Journey" in the fifth place have all exceeded 30 million, and even the worst "Trick War" has a box office of 25 million, with a 55% shooting rate.
Compared with these films, the box office of "The Hangover" in the early 8 million is not a hit on the street, so what is it?
According to the box office law of the film, the box office on the first and second days is the highest, and it will decrease in the future. In the most competitive Spring Festival stalls, the box office of 8 million on the first day is just cannon fodder, and it is very likely that it will be squeezed out of theaters after two weeks of release, and the final box office may be about 30 million-
30 million box office seems to be a lot, but the total investment of "The Hangover" is 25 million, plus the later publicity, 30 million can't beat it, so calculated, "The Hangover" at least made Shumi Studio lose 15 million!
For Shumi Studio, which has been smooth sailing and making a lot of money, this achievement is simply a knockdown on grandma's house!
Feng Chang thought wildly in his mind, and then sighed lightly: "...... There is no way, Shumi Studio's connections in the film and television industry are still too weak. Who would have thought that after the premiere of "The Hangover", whether it was the media or film critics, they were all collectively singing down, and few said that it was good......"
After the premiere of "The Hangover" on the 11th, the funny comedy "The Hangover" was evaluated by many filmmakers as a ", pee, fart" work, and all kinds of film reviews were criticized, saying that the content of the film was "vulgar, swearing, meaningless" and so on.
The evaluations of these media and film critics have influenced the audience's choice to a certain extent. Otherwise, "The Hangover" really wouldn't have pounced like this......
Qiao Jun nodded and agreed: "The top priority now is to first reverse the evaluation of "The Hangover"......"
"Contact film critics and media, these are another investment, and I still have to ask Mr. Da Shu to discuss it later......" Feng Chang remembered Shu Hongming's money bag again.
"Teacher Da Shu is in the recording studio now, right? Speaking of which, he and the rice are really hard enough......" Qiao Jun said with a smile, "Today is not only the first day of the Lunar New Year, but also Valentine's Day in the West, this kind of festival, the two of them are still working overtime in the studio." ”
"Yes! There are not many people in the circle who work as hard as them. Feng Chang smiled and nodded.
"If other celebrities had their current fame, they would have started to flutter and play big names a long time ago, maybe they would have been infected with a bad habit, but Teacher Dashu and Dami have always been so diligent and humble, let's follow the right person." Qiao Jun had a very happy expression, "...... Mr. Da Shu is very responsible at work, if he knew that the box office of "The Hangover" was only 8 million, he would definitely be busy in the studio until late today. ”
"If Teacher Da Shu is busy late, the rice is estimated to be accompanied by him. The two of them are not separated from the scales, and the scales are not separated from the scales......" Feng Chang sighed, "...... The relationship between the two of them is really good! ”
"Shall we go to the studio and see the two of them? The box office of "The Hangover" is too much of a headache, so I still have to let Mr. Da Shu get an idea. Qiao Jun proposed.
Feng Chang raised his hand and looked at his watch: "Gotcha!" Let's wait a little longer and find Teacher Da Shu, let him and the rice be crooked for a while......"
"That's right, the poor box office must affect the mood, let's make them happy for a while......"
The two of them chatted for a while with a headache, when suddenly they heard a knock at the door.
Feng Chang said "Please come in", and then saw an employee of a studio walk in, holding four lunch boxes in his hands: "Manager Feng, Director Qiao, it's time for dinner, this is your two ......"
"Hey, thank you." Feng Chang thanked him, took the lunch box and opened it, "Yo!" Today's dish is so rich! Braised pork, chicken thighs, dry fried fish ......"
The employee replied with a smile: "Teacher Dashu came at noon and ordered that the standard of working meals should be a little higher in the past two days......
Qiao Jun smiled slightly, then turned his head to the employee and said, "By the way, did Mr. Dashu and rice have they sent their dinner?" ”
"Huh?" The employee was stunned for a moment, "Teacher Da Shu and Rice, didn't the two of them leave just now!" ”
"What? Let's go?! When Feng Chang and Qiao Jun heard this, they were speechless for a while.
"yes, they said hello to me when they left, and the rice looked very happy...... Today is Valentine's Day, and looking at their appearance, they should be on a date, right? There is such a pair of loving bosses, and they feel that they are fed candy every day...... "The employee is envious.
Feng Chang and Qiao Jun glanced at each other, and the corners of their mouths twitched for a while.
Okay, what about these two goods? They didn't say anything about the praise before!
……
This year's Spring Festival in Yanjing City happened to encounter continuous snowfall, and the snow suddenly became heavier in the afternoon, and a thick layer of paving on the road outside has been paved, adding a little romantic atmosphere to this New Year and Valentine's Day.
A café near Shumi's studio.
Shu Hongming and Rice walked into the café together in simple disguise, stomped their feet, shook off the snowflakes on their bodies, and Rice muttered softly: "Why is it snowing again?" I can't go to a lot of places now......"
Rice was originally planned to have a good time~
Shu Hongming smiled slightly: "Wherever you want to go, I'll take you there." ”
Rice glared at Shu Hongming: "Don't tell you villain!" ”
"Big rice beauty, I was wrong today, please, give me a chance, okay?"
Rice couldn't help but smile: "Don't be!" ”
The two of them walked to the bar and glanced around, only to see that the café was already full, only a seat in the corner was still empty - today was Valentine's Day, and most of the people sitting in the café were also couples, and the atmosphere was very warm and ambiguous.
Shu Hongming and Rice walked to the only vacant seat and sat down, and the waiter walked up to Shu Hongming and Rice, briefly introducing today's special meal or something.
The waiter didn't say a few words, and suddenly as if he had found something, his voice became louder, and he said in surprise: "You are ......."
"Shh Shu Hongming and Rice made a silent gesture together, and then Shu Hongming smiled and said, "I'm sorry, please treat the two of us as ordinary guests today, don't disturb us, okay?" ”
"Uh...... Of course! The waiter nodded, then whispered, "I want two signatures, okay?" ”
"That's fine." Shu Hongming smiled and agreed.
When Shu Hongming and Rice ordered, the waiter left happily, and then quickly walked up to them with a signature book and asked Shu Hongming and Rice to sign their names.
However, the two faces of Shu Hongming and Rice are so eye-catching that they can't be low-key if they want to.
It didn't take long for a couple sitting next to Shu Hongming and Rice to recognize the two of them, and came over and greeted them in surprise: "You are Da Shu and Rice?" ”
The couple was a little loud, and when the people around heard it, they all looked at the position of Shu Hongming and Rice, and they were suddenly surprised again.
Shu Hongming and Da Mi were suddenly a little helpless, and nodded together: "Hello." ”
"Wow! It's really you! I really didn't expect to meet you two, we are your fans! The woman looked excited," ...... My name is Xiaomo, this is my boyfriend Ma Shuming, I wish you two a happy Spring Festival, a happy life, and a relationship that has always been so good...... Also, can you give us an autograph? ”
"No problem." Rice agreed, and looked at the group of eager people around him, knowing that some of them would be busy for a while.
Sure enough, after signing autographs and taking photos of the couple, the other couples in the seats also stood up and walked up to Shu Hongming and Rice, asking for autographs and group photos.
After sending away the fans, Shu Hongming and the rice finally came up.
After being disturbed by the fans, the rice couldn't pretend to be angry if he wanted to, but he still decided to give Shu Hongming some "color" to see, holding a fork and forking the cake on the plate, and snorting angrily to express that he was very angry: "Do you really know that you are wrong? ”
"Well, I know that's wrong." Shu Hongming's performance is very doggy.
Rice was a little smug and continued to ask, "It's good to know it's wrong!" Tell me, am I important or is my work important? ”
"You're important."
"Am I important or is the studio important?"
"You're important."
"I'm still ......" Rice was about to continue asking, but he heard a soft sound of "fluttering" next to him, and turned his head to look, only to see that the girl named Xiaomo in the seat next to him was laughing, and secretly holding his mobile phone to take pictures.
Rice stuck out his tongue, then gestured to Xiaomo's mobile phone with scissors, and then turned his head to Shu Hongming and said, "I will spare you today, and you will dare to ...... me like this in the future."
