"Director Zhang, Director Zhang, the statistical results are out!" The next night, Lao Mouzi was in his office in Beijing, and his assistant secretary knocked on the door and came in, holding a folder with a look of excitement on his face.

"Oh? Show me! When Lao Mouzi saw the secretary's expression, his heart was relieved, and it seemed that this statistic was good. The results of hourly statistics have always been an important data to measure the performance of a film, and this data is often more revealing and instructive than the more accurate and balanced weekly and monthly data.

Although Lao Mouzi is very confident in his big production, after all, it is the first time to try the international market, and before the results come out, everything he has is just speculation. After all, it is a big investment of more than 500 million, and when it is almost time to reveal the results, Lao Mouzi can't help but be nervous!

Taking the folder in the secretary's hand, Lao Mouzi endured the excitement in his heart and gently turned the first page.

The familiar report makes it easy for him to grasp the main point. Selectively ignoring the dense data above, he slipped directly to the most critical labeled data!

This look made Lao Mouzi's heartbeat a little faster!

B Summoning Wan!

Lao Mouzi is a senior director, so he naturally knows what this data means! Just a 24-hour box office has exceeded 10 million, Rao is he has experienced countless big formations, and there is also a wave of ecstasy in his heart at this moment!

"It's done!" Lao Mouzi: "Smack! He closed the folder as soon as he was relieved, and shouted!

Seeing the boss's happy look, the secretary also laughed. During this time, although Lao Mouzi was still confident outside, the secretary also saw his anxiety when there was no one behind his back. Knowing that this is the biggest investment he has made since directing the movie, even his veteran assistant can't help but sweat for him! In his opinion, it was a bold adventure.

Until now, he can't understand why Lao Mouzi believes in such a young screenwriter so much, believes in his book, and is willing to spend a lot of money to shoot it. Of course, he doesn't understand, because he is not an old planner and does not have the latter's unique vision for movies!

The old planner, who was very happy, immediately couldn't help but make a phone call to Liu Yufan. He has many old friends, but at this time, the person he wants to share the news most is this little friend who has just met. For him, Liu Yufan is more like his comrade-in-arms who fights side by side.

And this movie of "Pirates of the Caribbean" is the result of the joint efforts of two people!

Liu Yufan's phone was connected immediately. The night before, this guy was also uninvited, and he wanted to know that he was in an irritable mood, so he stayed with him for a while, but today, he was busy preparing for the Spring Festival Gala. After all, there is less than a month to start, and there are more rehearsals during this time.

"Brother Zhang!" On the other end of the phone, Liu Yufan's relaxed voice came. During this period of time, the relationship between the two has become much more familiar, and in private, Liu Yufan no longer called Lao Mouzi "Director Zhang," but changed his name to "Brother Zhang".

"Haha, Yufan, are you still on the TV station now?" Lao Mouzi laughed before he spoke, obviously showing that he was in an extremely happy mood.

"Yes, I just finished the rehearsal, big brother, seeing you smile so happily, there is good news." Liu Yufan knew what Lao Mouzi had been worried about in the past two days, and now that twenty-four hours had passed, it was estimated that there was a result over there. Liu Yufan is not worried about whether this movie can achieve good results in the Western film industry, after all, in the parallel world in the past, Liu Yufan clearly remembers that the box office of that movie finally exceeded 500 million, which is a very high figure. And in this life, the remake made by himself, Liu Yufan has full confidence to surpass the original version. Not only because of the large investment, but also because of the design of all the actions, which is much more exciting than the original. When it comes to filming martial arts actions, foreigners can't catch up with here, "Chinese kung fu"! ..., "Hehe, I said you kid, I don't know why you're so calm, and you don't look worried at all." That's right, the results are out, the box office for a while, Yufan, guess how many? My big screenwriter? Lao Mouzi was not only happy, but also made a joke about Liu Yufan.

"Hehe, Brother Zhang, I'm a layman about this, don't sell it to me, just say it, anyway, I don't have any concept in my head, there must be a lot." Liu Yufan said with a grin.

"It's not a lot, more than 13 million!" There was unconcealed joy in Lao Mouzi's voice, and his voice couldn't help but raise a lot.

"Yo, that's a lot." Liu Yufan said cooperatively over there, but this surprise component was somewhat pretended, just because he remembered that the data of later generations did not seem to be like this. However, thinking that this is only 24 hours of data, it is estimated that there will be more gradually in the future.

"Hehe, yes, this data is already comparable to "Resident Evil" and "Star Wars", which is a good sign. You must know that their films have gone through a lot of pre-publicity, but the movement of our film is much smaller, and they are still going hand in hand with them, which shows that the audience is very buying. Lao Mouzi said excitedly.

Lao Mouzi was right. The popularity of this magic-themed film abroad is indeed something he didn't expect. Many people were deeply surprised by the grand battle scenes and special effects when they saw this film for the first time, coupled with the extraordinary scene music, which became the highlight of this classic movie, so it is no surprise that this movie became popular. Many people watched it for the first time, and then called more friends and walked into the theater again to watch the second show. Out of the hour data actually contains four loops of data. Lao Mouzi didn't forget to look at these parameters. From these data, he can see that the first round of screenings of "Pirates of the Caribbean" is actually not very ideal, and it was not until the second round that there was a more obvious increase, and in the third and fourth rounds, it directly showed a blowout growth!

Lao Mouzi is too familiar with this kind of data, which is completely a harbinger of a successful film!

"Really, that's great, hehe!" Liu Yufan echoed with a smile on the other end. Although he is only a screenwriter, he is also proud of the popularity of this movie. The most important thing is that Lao Mouzi is very interesting, and the remuneration given to Liu Yufan is directly the share of the income of this film. Although Liu Yufan doesn't know how much the final income of this film will be, thinking of the hundreds of millions of box office, it is estimated that it will not be less.

"My big screenwriter, just watch, hey! In this film, I have a hunch that it is likely to break through the 100 million yuan mark! Lao Mouzi said. In fact, he is just a conservative statement, such a film, such a set of box office data, the bottom line in Lao Mouzi's heart should be more than 200 million box office. For the current situation that there are very few domestic films with a box office of more than 100 million, this box office is enough to be proud of!

"Well, big brother, I predict that this film will be able to pass 500 million box office!" Liu Yufan secretly thought of Lao Mouzi's "rat eyes" in his heart, and simply boldly "prophesied" him.

"What? Hehe, my big screenwriter, you really dare to think, 500 million box office? Do you think it's Titanic? But to borrow your auspicious words, maybe this film can really create a box office miracle! Lao Mouzi said with a heart. This happiness, people's words are much easier, Lao Mouzi's phone call, after more than half an hour, he was reluctant to put it down, and finally had to pull Liu Yufan to have a big dinner together at night, so he put down the phone and continued to harass his friends. …,

On the first day of the overseas release of "Pirates of the Caribbean", the box office hit a good start of 10 million, this news, in the domestic film industry, can be said to have dropped a bombshell, Feng Dagang, Chen Kaige, Zhang Jizhong and other big-name directors all learned the news for the first time, and they were immediately surprised, envious and many other mentalities surrounded them. When they lamented that Lao Mouzi's treasure was finally right, these people put away their previous disdainful mentality and began to find the source of the film through various channels to watch it carefully.

watched this time, I understood why this film was able to achieve such results, and I also understood where the gap between myself and others was. These people are not stupid, watch this plot, watch this special effects, watch this background music, absolutely high-quality, Hollywood-level boutique! They are clamoring every day to march to Hollywood, to march to Hollywood, but they know that the gap is too big. They didn't expect that this seemingly impossible goal would actually be achieved by Lao Mouzi!

"Perhaps, from this moment on, Lao Mouzi and they will no longer be directors of the same level." These people thought helplessly. They are all people with vision, although they can't make such a film themselves, but they can measure the value of such a film, with this film, Lao Mouzi has the capital to march into an international director!

"The key is that this book is well written, and I don't know where he found this book, Liu Yufan? How does this look like a Chinese name? But this plot, this setting, this is written by the Chinese? With the eyes of these people, they naturally noticed the name of the screenwriter, and some careful people even noticed that even the author of the background music was this Liu Yufan.

Liu Yufan, many directors, began to pay attention to this name from this moment. (To be continued.) [Text provided by]
