Chapter 300: Three Days of Madness
The high reputation of the screening field and the good start of the zero point show have made "Crazy Stone" have a high appearance.
The Wang brothers breathed a long sigh of relief, and Zhang Tan was calm and passionate.
And that's just the beginning, more exciting to come.
In 2007, movie theaters have successively adopted computer ticketing, but there are fewer networks, and more are manual ticketing, so it is difficult to clearly know how much box office is produced on the same day. But the major companies have their own statistical channels, and they are generally able to do it, and estimate how much box office they sold the day before the next day.
This kind of statistics is also a matter of proportionality.
How many movie theaters with online ticketing are there in the country, how many films are scheduled in various places, and the sampling statistics and summary analysis of movie theaters with manual ticket sales can get the results.
On the first day, the data of theaters from all over the world was brought over, and the employees of Huayi Brothers began to count early in the morning, and the king didn't go anywhere after eating lunch, so he stayed by the side.
"Huh......" The employee who presided over the statistical work was a little presumptuous, and after calculating the results, he couldn't believe it, "Calculate it again." β
The second time I calculated it, it was still the same number as before.
"This ......"
Xiao Qian was sure that he was right, so he had to hand over the result to the king: "Mr. Wang, the result is out." β
"Okay, bring it!" The king immediately opened the result report, and then, frowning, "Xiaoqian, did you miscalculate?" β
Xiao Qian said: "Mr. Wang, I have calculated it twice, and it is indeed this number." β
"You give me the spot again, don't be sloppy." The Lord will not believe this number very much.
The little money had to be counted a third time.
Calculate step by step, and dare not be sloppy in the slightest.
A few minutes later. The results are calculated, and they are still consistent with the previous results: "Mr. Wang." That's right, it's the number. β
"Really? Are you sure the formula is correct? β
"I've calculated the daily box office of several movies for the company. There's no way you could go wrong. β
"Really?"
Xiao Qian was also speechless: "I have calculated several times for each step, and it is not wrong at all, but if it is wrong, the data sent by theaters around the country is wrong." But I checked it, and it seems that the data of each theater is much higher than the previous box office data of our company's movies, which should not be wrong, it is impossible for so many data to be wrong. β
With this guarantee of Xiao Qian, the king will finally believe the data in his hand.
And then. I saw him grinning: "Haha, ******, who will dare to question Lao Tzu's vision in the future!" Huayi Brothers can invest in so many successful movies, not only my brother has vision, but also my lord will also have vision. β
After a pause, the king will call Xiao Wei: "You immediately send me this box office statistics, and let all the cooperative media report this!" β
"Okay, Mr. Wang."
"Don't forget to send a message to Lu Ying."
"I won't forget it."
After the explanation, the king will sit on the boss's chair. After thinking about it, he stood up again, walked to the cabinet next to him, and took out a bottle of red wine and a glass. I poured myself half a glass of red wine, sat back on the sofa, and tasted it leisurely.
"Sweet. It's so sweet! β
β¦β¦
When he received the box office statistics on the first day of release, Zhang Tan was running in the park.
Do it all over again. He has always valued his body as precious, and only with a good body can he enjoy the beauty of this life to the fullest. So every day from three o'clock in the afternoon, he would go for a run in a quieter park nearby.
He doesn't like to exercise in the morning, because the morning may not be the best time to exercise, and after sweating, he has to change his clothes and take a shower when he comes back, which is troublesome. Exercising in the afternoon will be a shower in the evening, which is relatively simple, and experts also say that 3 to 5 pm is the best time to exercise.
"Weiwei, are you sure there are no statistical errors on Huayi Brothers' side?" After running a lap, Zhang Tan didn't even breathe, but just looked at Ma Weiwei in surprise.
"Yes, boss, I asked Huayi Brothers carefully to make sure it was this number, and they also counted it several times."
"Tsk, this ......" Zhang Tan opened his mouth, and he didn't find the right wording for a long time, "We're going to be on fire, it's going to be hot!" β
Ma Weiwei said excitedly: "Yes, comparing the box office trends of domestic films over the years, "Crazy Stone" is basically safe to break 100 million, and maybe it can be higher!" β
"Okay, borrow your auspicious words, if the box office can really break 100 million, go back to the company, the crew, and each of you will wrap a fat red envelope."
"Thank you, boss." Ma Weiwei said with a smile.
"It's not too late to wait for the box office to break 100 million."
"It's okay, I'll thank you sooner or later." Ma Weiwei's confidence is greater than that of Zhang Tan, "Oh yes, boss, Deputy Director Liu of Zhejiang Satellite TV will come to Beijia tomorrow and invite you to have a meal with Zhang Weishen to discuss the broadcast of "Dragon Babu". β
"Lao Liu is here, okay, you reply to him and he said I agreed, and then I will come to be the east, Weiwei, you arrange."
"Okay."
Pressing down on this good news, Zhang Tan continued his running without shock.
In the outside world, Zhang Tan is not so calm.
As Huayi Brothers announced the box office of "Crazy Stone" on the first day of release, it immediately caused an uproar, and the fastest responding online media have already played a hot and thrilling title.
One stone stirs up a thousand waves.
Shattered an eyeball.
"The box office on Friday's first day was 8 million, and the momentum of "Crazy Stone" is unparalleled!" -- Salary.com.
"There are still three days before the National Day Golden Week, and "Crazy Stone" has already set off a wave of movie-watching." - Pig nets.
"Stone Zero Field set a new record of 1.06 million, and won 8 million on Friday's premiere day, and set a new box office record for domestic films on non-holiday premiere days." ββMtime.com.
Fox News: "The film schedule is 100%, the attendance rate is as high as 50%, and the word-of-mouth of "Crazy Stone" has begun to convert into box office. β
Huayi Brothers' official Weibo: "Great news, Huayi Brothers and Tan Zhang's new film "Crazy Stone" was released strongly, and 1.06 million in the zero point field reached a new record. On the first day, with a box office of 8 million, it set a new record for the non-holiday premiere box office of domestic films in Chinese film history. This National Day, let's go crazy together! β
Zhang Tan's personal Weibo account: "Zero point field 1.06 million." 8 million on the first day, two new records, thank you for your support! β
September 28 is Friday, and the statutory holiday of this year's National Day is from October 1st to October 7th, which means that the last Friday, Saturday and Sunday in September are all normal working days. "Crazy Stone" was deliberately released three days before the National Day, just to give word-of-mouth a warm-up time.
I didn't think that the zero point show broke 1.06 million, and on the first day of release, it won 8 million at such an amazing box office.
This 8 million is nothing at the box office on the opening day. This year's "Transforming Autobots" was released on Wednesday, and the box office on the opening day was almost close to 20 million, and the blockbuster "Jing Ke Assassinating Qin" in 02 was released on Sunday, and the box office on the premiere day was more than 10 million. But on the non-holiday premiere day of domestic films, the 8 million of "Crazy Stone" is still a big new record.
Comparing it in the larger environment, it is clearer and clearer.
In the whole of September this year, the total box office of the market in the first 27 days just reached 25 million, that is, the market in one day was less than 1 million. Now "Crazy Stone" counts the zero point field, and it sold 9 million in one day. It is equal to the sum of the national box office in the previous week or so, and this momentum is scary.
The next day, the print media also reported on the box office of "Crazy Stone" on the opening day.
"Is Crazy Stone really going crazy?"
"8 million on the first day, experts are optimistic that the box office of the stone will exceed 100 million."
"Tan Zhang's directorial debut - the female film was a box office hit. It is a standard interdisciplinary talent. β
"The war between two groups of bandits and security guards, Crazy Stone had its national premiere yesterday, causing a crowd of moviegoers."
"The first day plus the zero point field. The strong box office of 9 million has increased the market by 900%. Why is the stone so attractive? β
"Conscientious production, Tan Zhang brings a ray of light to domestic films."
"Stone must be a shot in the arm for Chinese films!"
This first-day box office. It's really like a shot in the arm that hits the hearts of many people. Zhang Tan's fans were naturally cheering, and they were running around on post bars, forums, and Weibo, and at the same time further promoting the movie. Many film critics also congratulated Stone on his first-day results.
Of course, sour grapes and trolls are also indispensable.
What "100% of the film is scheduled, the audience has no choice", what "the movie is well made, it is better to do a good job of publicity", what "no matter how good the hype of a bad movie is, it is a bad movie", what "the cinema film schedule has been monopolized by capital", what "no one cares about humanistic care movies, and urine fart are very popular, what is wrong with the Chinese audience" and so on.
However, the presence of these trolls is relatively low, and as more and more people watch "Crazy Stone", the praise is becoming more and more dominant. In Douban's score, even if two or three thousand people scored after the premiere, they still maintained a score of 9.1, and it was a five-star or four-star rating.
Soon, the box office for the next two days was freshly released.
Following the 100% film schedule on the first day, the second day and the third day were also 100% scheduled, because there were really no good films in the same period. In the current Chinese film market, there are too few films that can make money, basically a blockbuster comes out, as long as there is no competition from another blockbuster, it can get 100% of the films.
The box office of the second day, the statistics are 8.5 million!
The box office on the third day, the statistics are 11 million!
In the first week of its release, three days, plus zero point screening, "Crazy Stone" earned 28.56 million yuan, and the box office became higher and higher day by day, handing over a perfect and impeccable box office answer.
As perfect as the box office, it is word of mouth, after its national release, it has been tested by countless audiences, "Crazy Stone" not only did not "show its original form" as expected by those trolls, on the contrary, after more and more people liked and respected it, the evaluation of the movie has basically stabilized.
"This is a conscience production of a domestic film, this is a movie that really does not insult the IQ of the common people, this is a movie that can make people laugh for two and a half hours, this is a comedy that laughs non-stop when you watch it, discusses it non-stop after watching it, and laughs when you think about it from time to time."
"The seven days of the National Day are coming, can "Crazy Stone" set off a crazy week?"
"Can 'Crazy Stone' reverse the gloomy image of Chinese cinema?"
The eyes of all filmmakers are gathered here, and everyone knows that Chinese films will not be rotten forever, but what to do to change is very confused.
Perhaps "Crazy Stone" can shed some light. (To be continued.) )
