"What do you think of these two ......" Wu Kebo was talking to Wang Jinghua in Orange Sky's office, but these two people were a bit of a lively mentality, and now, the heart picture was done with Hua Yi first, which gave their sworn enemies a chance to breathe, and he was naturally happy to watch the show.

Wang Jinghua sat at the desk, her face did not have the respect for Wang Zhongjun in Huayi, after all, she was also one of the bosses of Orange Sky: "I don't think Shao Yingying should lose." ”

"Sister Hua, your joke is a bit big, the two movies "Hero" and "Ambush on All Sides" have cultivated a lot of irons, and this group of irons can make the box office of "A Thousand Miles Ride Alone" float to a certain height, Shao Yingying, a person who does not have too many roots in the film market, can win Zhang Yimou? I don't believe it anyway. Wu Kebo not only didn't believe that Shao Yingying could win Zhang Yimou, but even he felt that Wang Jinghua was a little obsessed with Shao Yingying, as if this man was omnipotent in her eyes.

Wang Jinghua didn't refute, but just put forward his own reasoning: ""A Thousand Miles to Ride Alone" is not a commercial film, the highest box office record of literary films in the past was created by Zhang Yimou, but in recent years, there is only one movie with a box office of more than 10 million in the literary film market, that is, "Peacock" released at the beginning of this year, which was filmed by Gu Changwei. As a literary film, I don't think it's strange if Zhang Yimou can surpass Gu Changwei's box office, and I can use my own shortcomings to beat others' strengths...... What is the difference between this and Tian Ji horse racing? Boss Wu, what I mean by strength is the box office. ”

In terms of box office results, Zhang Yimou's commercial films have indeed surpassed literary films a lot, which is considered Zhang Yimou's strength, and there is nothing wrong with it. At least the current box office record of mainland Chinese movies is others.

"According to what you say, Shao Yingying's strength is also a commercial theme?"

"It's not good to say, anyway, this kid is very good at capturing the audience's taste. On the small screen. He is always a winner, and so far, except for the opening ratings of "Bright Sword" lost to the end of "Deep Love and Rain", I haven't seen him lose, besides, that was a few years ago. He...... It's like having a natural sense of smell and knowing which bite the audience is good at. ”

Wang Jinghua has praised Shao Yingying for a long time. But what surprised Wang Jinghua the most was that this kid was a yellow finch in the mantis catching cicadas, and she never imagined that Hua Yi would end up in his hands.

With Wang Jinghua's praise for Shao Yingying, he still underestimated him. How could Wang Jinghua not look at Shao Yingying?

"Wait for the box office news, no matter who wins or loses, it will be good for us, it is best if Huayi loses and can't raise his head again. Then. We'll be able to take advantage of the situation. ”

Like Wu Kebo, Shao Yingying, Wang Zhongjun and Wang Zhonglei are waiting for box office news, and all three of them have returned to Huayi Company, because today's major theaters will send the results of the first day.

In Wang Zhongjun's office, Shao Yingying sat very steadily, he did not bring back the tension in the movie theater the day before, in the eyes of outsiders, the current Shao Yingying is like not fighting with the heart picture at all, more like drinking tea calmly at home.

Backbite!

The phone rang in Mr. Wang's office. At the same time, all three of them stared at the phones on the table. Among them, Wang Zhongjun's eyes were full of worry, Wang Zhonglei was expectant, but Shao Yingying, there was no wave in his eyes.

Click.

At the moment when Wang Zhongjun picked up the phone, a slight voice came out, and then the phone was attached to Wang Zhongjun's ear, and after a few seconds, the worry in his eyes disappeared instantly, and he asked in astonishment: "Say it again, how much is it!" ”

Wang Zhonglei leaned forward, he wanted to know the number, but when he got closer, Wang Zhongjun slowly put the phone back in its place.

He ignored Wang Zhonglei's eagerness and said to Shao Yingying: "The news has come back." ”

"Say." Shao Yingying's face was very calm, but his thumb and index finger still betrayed him, and the two fingers were pinched together, and even the flesh on the fingers was slightly white.

Wang Zhonglei then asked, "Brother, you said it!" ”

"Nine million and sixty thousand ......"

Scold!

Wang Zhongjun seemed to have just reacted now, reached out and pulled the tie on the collar of his neck, and directly pulled the first button on his shirt without untying it: "Xiao Shao!" Nine million !! ”

The world is spinning.

This number made Shao Yingying feel that the sky was spinning in front of him, and the heart that was beating wildly drew an arc at the corner of his mouth in infinite joy.

He couldn't be upset!!

The national box office of "Embroidered Spring Knife" on the first day was 9.06 million, which is counting the national box office of Xiangjiang and Baodao, even so, this result is rare even in 2005, when the competition for the annual box office championship was so fierce.

"Whew!"

Shao Yingying can finally take a breath, and with the box office result of 9.06 million on the first day, he can be considered to have some confidence.

"Is this the result of online pre-sale, or is it ......" Shao Yingying is indeed very happy, but he is also the first of these people in front of him to wake up, if the online pre-sale results account for the majority, it is very bad news, it can only be said that the previous publicity was good, this kind of movie will generally be weak in the later stage, and the box office in the first week will be very popular and immediately begin to fall sharply.

Wang Zhongjun said excitedly: "Among them, the online pre-sale of the movie has reached 3.83 million, and the rest is all pre-sold in theaters and on-site box office!" ”

As soon as this news comes out, it proves that "Embroidered Spring Knife" is really popular!!

No matter how much money is spent on online pre-sales, it only proves that there will be a lot of people entering the theater without paying cash for the premiere, although this is also considered a box office, and it still cuts the range of on-site ticket purchases. If the fans who watch "Embroidered Spring Knife" and the fans who get tickets in online pre-sale follow the current ratio, it proves that the group of people on the Internet is coming in waves, and the ticket sales at the ticket window prove the durability of the box office. After all, online shopping is not the mainstream of life in 2005, even if the online publicity is good, this wave of people will not enter the theater for the second time after this boom, not to mention that there are so many Tao-Bao users, in the case of such a large amount of publicity, they have not been able to make them pay money, let alone think about it in the future.

"What about word of mouth?" Shao Yingying asked anxiously.

Wang Zhongjun and Wang Zhonglei both laughed: "Xiao Shao." You're in a hurry, it's only been a day. ”

"Right...... It's only been one day. Shao Yingying is a little anxious, and the word-of-mouth of movies generally rises up after the box office comes out a week. There are really a few people like "Wu Ji", who have been scolded from the release to the next painting, and in the end, even the director has been forced to make all kinds of concessions.

Thinking of "Wuji", Shao Yingying suddenly thought that the box office of "Wuji" on the first day seemed to be more than 9 million, but he couldn't remember exactly how much, but the box office of "Wuji" in the first week was divided by everyone, some said it was 60 million, some said it was 74 million, and some said 80 million. But the total box office finally climbed to 180 million, hitting a box office peak.

Shao Yingying didn't dare to think so much, his psychological expectation was 100 million. As long as "Embroidered Spring Knife" wins 100 million at the box office, it will not lose, and it will even make a profit, and after 120 million, it will be a big profit. Further up...... He hadn't thought about it. What he thought about was that "Hero" sold 18.74 million for various copyright fees in addition to the box office. If "Embroidered Spring Knife" works well and can sell the copyright for about 12 million, then this is not a movie that has made a good start for Huayi.

In the film industry, a large investment does not necessarily make a big profit, and the movies that really make money in theaters have to be said to be a small investment like "Crazy Stone", who makes you have to give 60% of the box office to others, and you can only take 40%, and even this 40% includes giving some money to the theater?

After getting the good news, the three Huayi bosses began to go everywhere, because at this time, some theaters had begun to ask for an extension of the release time. This is the time when Huayi really makes money, once there is such a requirement. As is customary, the box office from the extended release time will be reduced from three points to two.

When Shao Yingying and the Wang brothers went to major theaters to negotiate at the same time, another good news came back, Shao Yingying was on the cover of "Time Magazine"!

The cover of the latest issue of Time Magazine is Shao Yingying, and under his huge photo, there is a 'Titanic' sailing on the sea, and the English accompanying it is 'I want to challenge the box office record of that ship in China!'" ’。

Rumble!

As soon as this news exploded, the whole country fell into heated discussions when the word-of-mouth of "Embroidered Spring Knife" had not yet come out, Shao Yingying challenged the box office record set by "Titanic" in China? Why is he? Is it just "Embroidered Spring Knife"?

Various analyses in various entertainment news began to attack collectively, and "Embroidered Spring Knife", Hua Yi, and Shao Yingying became the most common words in the media.

"Hello audience, have you watched the recently screened "Embroidered Spring Knife"? Here the editor will reveal a little gossip to you, on the cover of "Time Magazine", Shao Yingying, the screenwriter and starring of "Embroidered Spring Knife", this time, the slogan he shouted in "Time Magazine" is to challenge the box office record set by "Titanic" in my country, can he get his wish? Welcome to continue to tune in to the ongoing coverage of Entertainment Pioneer. ”

"This is "A New Era of Entertainment", Shao Yingying and Hua Yi can be said to have a strong momentum in the recent year, and the release of "Embroidered Spring Knife" has allowed us to see a different martial arts world, but this is not the theme of this issue, the theme of this issue is "Shao Yingying appeared on the cover of "Time Magazine", and declared that he would challenge the ...... of "Titanic"

As soon as the news in Time Magazine appeared, there were more and more reporters who went to Huayi Company, and almost everyone who came to Huayi Company would ask for an interview with Shao Yingying, which made the reception staff at the door of Huayi tireless.

"Everyone, our Mr. Shao doesn't have time to be interviewed now, if you want to interview, please make an appointment, Mr. Shao's secretary didn't tell me about today's interview, so don't embarrass me, okay?" The reception staff looked pitifully at the reporter with a long gun and a short cannon in front of him.

At this time, Shao Yingying rushed back from outside, and behind him was Zhang Wan, who had just returned from filming "Life and Death".

"Mr. Shao!"

When this title appeared, the reporter turned his head at the same time, and then surrounded Shao Yingying in the crowd with a 'hula'.

"Mr. Shao, did you say that you want to challenge the box office record of "Titanic"?"

"Mr. Shao, why did you say such a thing in an interview with Time Magazine?"

"Mr. Shao, do you think that "Embroidered Spring Knife" can surpass "Titanic"?"

Zhang Wan blocked all the reporters, and said while separating the crowd: "Mr. Shao, you go in first, and I'll leave it here." ”

"No, I'll do it myself." Shao Yingying dragged Zhang Wan in front of him behind him, looked at everyone without being nervous at all, he said: "I said the sentence of challenging the box office record set by "Titanic" in my country, yes, but at that time, "Embroidered Spring Knife" had already been filmed, and I was the first time to play the leading role in the movie, this movie is very important to me, but it has nothing to do with the challenge. ”

"As for when I will challenge the record of "Titanic", I will tell you in advance, but not in a straightforward way, thank you, I still have something." (To be continued......)
