Chapter 219: There is no silver here

On the second day of the Lunar New Year, the number of screenings of "This Man from Earth" eventually doubled as copies were delivered to various theaters.

And the box office of the movie was finally set at more than 10 million.

From the 4 million opening day box office to the 10 million box office on the second day, this data is not so common, especially during the Spring Festival.

Not to mention, this 10 million-level box office was actually achieved by more than 400 copies of the movie.

You must know that one of the secrets of many movies being able to break 100 million at the box office on the first day is the intensive film schedule - more than 20,000 or 30,000 shows were discharged on the first day, so that many audiences who entered the cinema almost had no choice, and frantically absorbed the box office of the audience who wandered away without a specific viewing goal!

And how many copies of "This Man is from Earth"?

More than 400 copies were in place one after another, and on average, each copy was only 11 or 2 shows, and the total schedule data of the day was 5,000.

What's more, this is not the first-day box office, but the second-day box office!

Under normal circumstances, the box office on the first day is usually the highest box office, and then as the potential audience gradually decreases because they have already seen it, the box office will only continue to decrease except for weekends, not grow!

So the surging calls made by the theater owners once again flooded Yan's mother's mobile phone, and the number of movie copy orders for "This Man from Earth" exceeded 500 in one day!

Coupled with the more than 400 copies that have already been sold, the total number of copies sold in this movie has quietly exceeded 1,000.

Even if it's still only twelve games a day, a thousand copies is enough to drain 12,000 games! Of course, the actual situation will definitely not shoot 12 shows directly, with the good relationship between Ji Yanran and Yan Ma and those theaters, as well as the good box office of "This Man is from Earth" itself, Chen Mo feels that 14 shows a day are less.

With a box office of 55 yuan per show, the attendance rate is even a little lower. The total box office of about 30 million in a single day is basically a breeze.

And this data is enough to satisfy most theater owners.

The actual situation is also the same, although on the third day of the first lunar month, "Beihai Beihai", which has a high demand for the box office champion of the Chinese New Year, was released, so some of the theater resources were diverted, but the total number of films of "This Man from the Earth" still went against the current to reach 15,000.

As for the single-day movie box office. It's -- 60 million !!

Compared with the total box office of 30 million expected by observers, the single-day box office of 60 million has fully doubled.

"Big boss, it seems that the drama boy really heard your prayers, and you can't shape this golden body even if you don't want to."

This situation allowed Yan's mother to joke with Chen Mo on the phone.

Who would have thought that a movie with an investment of only more than 100,000 yuan would actually earn more than 70 million yuan in three days after its release, becoming the first big dark horse in the film circle in 2002?

And 70 million is just the beginning, this parallel world movie from release to release. also follows the principle of having a cycle of 30 days and then making way for new films, but because of the use of thirty months instead of weeks, the box office data of "This Man from Earth" easily exceeded 370 million in the first ten days.

The box office data of the second ten days decreased slightly, but it was still a box office of more than 210 million, and the last ten days, especially the last three days near the next screening, there was a surprising data rebound, and the box office broke 300 million again in ten days!

In the end, the total box office of "This Man is from Earth". The cumulative amount has reached 800 million!

And that's just the beginning. Because the 600 million box office is only the domestic box office in China, after being shocked to hear that such a super gold-attracting film was released this year, film distributors from overseas countries flocked to the city and quickly negotiated with Storm Audiovisual to introduce "This Man from Earth" into their respective countries.

Although it is a long-term business plan, most of the contracts take the one-time buyout of a country's film copyright, rather than the collection method of film box office sharing. But it was still easy for Storm Audio-Visual Company to make more than 40 million dollars.

As for the overseas box office, it won't be able to come out for a while, after all, because not a single distributor buys the copyright, the release time is different in different countries.

Of course, as a big country of cultural export. This kind of overseas copyright income of less than 50 million is a large amount for Storm Audio-Visual Company, which has a registered capital of only 20 million, but it is a bit insufficient in the eyes of the public -- everyone has long been accustomed to seeing all kinds of blockbusters with overseas copyright income of more than 100 million, or even more than 100 million.

But the investment of more than 100,000 yuan, compared with this huge ticket sales, still easily attracted the public's attention.

Anyway, whether Chen Mo believes it or not, after various analyses by countless professional analysts and non-mainstream analysts, he has been crowned with the latest title of "genius screenwriter", not only do people from all walks of life want to do an exclusive interview with him, but many film companies also can't bear to hear the news, trying to ask Chen Mo to help write a script, as for the price...... Good, quotient, quantity!

This situation has even easily turned into a phenomenal event, not only various entertainment news rushed to report, but even the seven-o'clock news of national television reported the news of "This Man is from Earth" for two consecutive nights, characterizing it as a rare back-to-basics science fantasy blockbuster.

Well, anyway, Chen Mo doesn't know what it means to return to the basics.

In order to cover up his ignorance, Chen Mo declined all interviews without hesitation, and also rejected all requests for high-paying invitations to the script, he just fulfilled his promise to shape a golden body for the drama prodigy.

After shaping the golden body, Chen Mo realized that the matter of shaping the golden body did not cost as much money as he imagined, and he spent less than 500,000 yuan in total.

And in this world, there is no secret to anything that will be exposed to the sun.

Before the movie started, Chen Mo prayed to the drama boy that if the box office broke 100 million, he would give the drama boy a golden body at the box office, and the allusion was soon spread in the form of multiple versions.

According to incomplete statistics, after this news spread, at least 130 directors in China who are filming new dramas or are about to shoot new dramas urgently opened the altar to worship the opera god boy, as for what these directors prayed for when they worshipped the opera god boy, then no one knows.

Chen Mo, who is the initiator. and the members of the crew of "This Man is from Earth" completed the second internal account split.

800 million box office, as the producer of Storm Video and Audio, the share is 45%, which is converted to 360 million.

According to the contracts signed with those big-name actors, these people can each take 10% to 5% of this billions of wealth.

Tens of millions of accounts per person. It seems that it is very easy for the actors, actresses and prospective actresses to be loyal to Storm Audio-Visual Company and Chen Mo, the new boss, to a big step.

And Chen Mo is kind, even the two lucky old drama supporting actors who were found to play the role were given millions of extra red envelopes and became millionaires, and the two of them were almost knocked down by this huge happiness, from the time they got the money to the time they left with a thousand thanks, they were like sleepwalking.

I have to admit it. Wealth is really moving.

After everyone left, Chen Mo was busy with the second thing that had been specially mentioned by Yan's mother.

At the beginning, Chen Mo accidentally said that he had leaked Oscar, and then lied that he wanted to get a few English songs, which was always remembered by Yan's mother.

In addition, Old Man Qiu was not pressing, and Chen Mo, who was helpless, could only decide to make an English album to block the mouth of the world.

So choosing a song has become a very headache for Chen Mo.

After the election comes and goes. Chen Mo finally circled eight songs, and this song was out of one of Taylor Swift's songs. All the others are covered in Chinese or from Chinese to English, they are - "Take-Me-To-Your-Heart", "Moonlight-Flower", "no-way-I-can-ride", "only-leve", "Lemon-Tree", "baby, Im-sorry", "Now-you-are-gone", "love-story".

The lyrics and songs of these songs were taken by Chen Mo to the Five Music Workshop and given to the owner of Qiu Fang for the first time when he was an old man. After looking at it with wide eyes for a while, Old Man Qiu turned his head and glared at Chen Mo and said: Xiao Chen, you did it on purpose! ”

"No, old man Qiu, are these lyrics ...... What's the problem? ”

Chen Mo hurriedly shouted injustice, in fact, he had already checked the website of the Copyright Office before coming. He has no problem with these lyrics and songs.

"Of course there is a problem! Big problem! Old Man Qiu continued to stare at Chen Mo, and without looking at it, he used his right index finger to re-emphasize the score paper that recorded the lyrics and songs: "Xiao Chen, what kind of bird language are you writing here?" Don't say that you don't know the score, but you don't know the lyrics, how tormenting it is for me as a bad old man. ”

Halo -

It turns out that the old man said this.

"Well, that's like this, Mr. Qiu, I use all these songs in English, because I think so...... Well, songwriting is a thing, and occasionally it should be in line with the world, although English is only a small language with few people in this world, but I'm afraid that after trying it, I feel it, it seems that using it to create songs and singing is also quite questionable, so this is an attempt, well, an attempt to break through the mother tongue! ”

Fortunately, Chen Mo had expected this situation a long time ago, so this explanation could come with an open mouth.

"Oh? It's true? ”

Old Man Qiu didn't fully believe it.

"Nothing short of real gold! Pure! Chen Mo nodded immediately, and quickly added: "But old man, if you really feel that you can't get used to hearing it, then I'll get some Chinese versions out in a few days?" ”

"That's pretty much it." The old man was finally satisfied, so he raised his right hand and stretched out his five fingers to Chen Mo: "List of musicians." ”

With so many songs, accompaniment music and harmony are absolutely indispensable, and Chen Mo naturally prepared a list of musicians and instruments that he needed to use early on, and sent the list to Old Man Qiu as soon as possible.

After taking the list, the old man began to call, one by one to call the musicians on the list to come over, and occasionally there would be a musician who could not come because of an accident, so the old man hung up and called again to the spare tire.

Of course, Qiu Dalin is indispensable if there is no one missing from the musicians, and the position of the chief electric steel player of the big white band is as stable as Mount Tai.

But this time, it was Miss Feng who rushed over first.

"Aren't you busy today?"

Chen Mo was quite strange, he originally thought that Miss Feng would be busy with work again, and she wouldn't be able to get over at all.

"The first month has just passed, and it is still early before the next wave of consumption boom, where are so many things busy, you should ask me how idle I am today."

The cold winter has not completely passed, and Miss Feng can't wait to change into a close-fitting white dress, revealing her proud capital.

Even if she doesn't rely on her posture to eat at all, Miss Feng never seems to miss the opportunity to show her figure in a low-key manner, so she does not hesitate to become a beautiful frozen person like an ordinary girl.

And white is one of Chen Mo's favorite colors, he thinks that girls always look very handsome when they wear clothes of this color, and Miss Feng is completely in line with his aesthetics, this is a little distracted by not paying attention.

"Hey, what are you looking at?"

Miss Feng shook her fingers in front of Chen Mo's eyes.

"Of course it's to see beautiful women." Chen Mo, who was exposed, rarely felt ashamed and uneasy because of this, he just replied truthfully: "Miss Feng, this white dress is especially suitable for you, but don't you really feel cold?" ”

"Do you know Chen Mo, if you omit the last few words, I will sincerely thank you."

Miss Feng gave Chen Mo a roll of her eyes, but she was still secretly happy in her heart - it wasn't that she meant anything to Chen Mo, just because her natural beauty was affirmed, who would a girl not like to be praised for her good looks?

"Hey, do I still need to hone my speaking skills......

Chen Mo was frustrated.

"Hehe, Chen Mo, don't pretend, hasn't anyone said that your acting skills are actually terrible?"

Feng Zhinan smiled skillfully and ruthlessly exposed Chen Mo.

And Chen Mo was an eye-picker, Feng Zhinan's unintentional words made him immediately remember that on Chinese New Year's Eve, he accidentally touched Ji Yanran's proud breasts, and then wanted to repent but was told by Ji Yanran that his acting skills were rotten.

Although Chen Mo was in a very apprehensive mood at that time, but now that Feng Zhinan unintentionally mentioned it, what involuntarily came out of his mind was charming, and that wonderful feeling lingered in his mind, seeming to ...... Never left.

"Heh, sure enough, I wasn't the first to find out."

Feng Zhinan couldn't guess what Chen Mo had in mind, but at least she could easily guess the most basic situation through the changes in Chen Mo's expression.

"How, how could it be!" Chen Mo's heart was empty, and he argued strongly: "Miss Feng, please respect yourself, I am now a man who is known as a genius screenwriter!" (To be continued......)
