One hundred million!

"Source Code" took three days to break the final results of "Crazy Racing", and it took only three days to push the box office to 108.5 million with a box office of 38 million on September 30, 36.1 million on October 1, and 34.4 million on October 2, which is only three days.

In other words, even if the box office is only 30 million per day for the remaining four days, the box office will break through the 200 million mark very safely, don't forget, the Golden Week has not passed yet!!

When Shao Yingying received a call from Zhang Wan during the busy publicity period, he was in a hurry to touch up his makeup on Zhejiang Station, and he was going to participate in the show after finishing his makeup.

"Boss Shao, 100 million, it's only been three days and it's already 100 million!!"

Shao Yingying held the phone, while the makeup artist was waiting: "Brother Zhang, don't be impulsive, now only you Director Feng is in charge of the company, if you, the person in charge of the overall situation, float up first, the people below may be able to fire guns at the media." Immediately let everyone in the company shut up, whether it is an artist, an employee, or a clerk of the company, so that they are not allowed to mention the matter of "Source Code" on any occasion, even if a reporter asks, they can only send blessings to this movie, and they don't say a word other than that. ”

"Why? Now that we are about to hit a high box office, why are we still so cautious? ”

"It's not a matter of prudence, the more you have to be careful, you think, everyone is opening a restaurant on the same street, just your own fire, who is not angry? If you are on fire, it proves that your chef is good, if you, the boss, are arrogant and have a broken mouth. That will make everyone hate you. We have enough enemies, and now, what is not better than making money quietly? ”

"Okay."

Zhang Wan did not contradict Shao Yingying. took all his words to heart, because he didn't see Shao Yingying miss it: "What about that side of Colombia?" Chris comes and goes twice a day, and I can't hold it anymore. ”

"That's tense too." Shao Yingying showed a smile and said, "Brother Zhang, you have to think about why he runs so hard, right?" If he doesn't think our book is good, when did you see him running to Huayi like this? It's not like we're going to go up to the pole and beg for help. This time, let's not ask for it. If you wait for me to go back, I guess we should see by then. ”

Shao Yingying is not in a hurry at all about Hollywood coming to buy the script, and it is not normal for Colombia to be so eager to get the script adaptation rights. Hollywood scripts are stored in 'libraries' in every big company, so why did they just look at Source Code? Shao Yingying pondered that it was probably the success of "Source Code" in North America that moved Colombia, if a film made entirely by Chinese could make a jaw-dropping result in Hollywood. I'm afraid it's unlikely that they'll be in a hurry even if they don't want to.

Everyone has to think about the consequences of replacing these Chinese with Hollywood stars. What's more, "Source Code" is still a small investment movie.

hung up the phone, Shao Yingying started the promotional activities again, these four days, he had to call Zhang Wan almost every day to ask about the previous day's box office before he could sleep, and when the week was over, the Asian box office came out.

South Korea, $2.4 million; island nations, $1.8 million; Hong kong. 12 million (HKD); Treasure Island, 17 million (NT$).

Of course. This is only the box office results, and when the relevant departments over there deduct all the miscellaneous expenses, the last thing left is the actual results that Huayi can receive in the account.

At the same time, the box office results in Europe also came back, France, 870,000 (US dollars); Netherlands, 604,000 (US$); Spain, 490,000 (US$); United Kingdom, 790,000 (US$); Italy, 840,000 (US$); Germany, 170,000 ($).

It's very interesting that such a movie that was once popular in North America and had a rampant reputation has not reached a million dollars in any country in Europe, which has already illustrated a very important problem, that is, as long as the movies made by pure Chinese do not bear the names of Li Lianjie and Cheng Long, they will not sell well in Europe, and even their films may not be able to open the box office in Europe. But Hollywood stars can do this, and even some big Hollywood names can make these countries contribute millions or even tens of millions of box office results, which is still the result of dollar conversion.

It's just that......

Why hasn't the North American report been brought back yet?

This is Shao Yingying's only question after hearing Zhang Wan's report on the Asian and European box office!

North America can't work more slowly than Asia and Europe, and if there is a comparison, Shao Yingying can only suspect that someone has done something to the box office results, or that someone has seized the box office results and not released them.

Huayi's relationship is only Colombia, if Colombia deliberately slows down the progress, then Shao Yingying wants to know the results of North America......

"Boss Shao, 200 million, our box office in the mainland has exceeded 200 million, the weekly champion must be ours, and the annual champion will definitely not be able to run."

Zhang Wan was very excited in another contact, when he heard that Shao Yingying was slow to ask about the mainland box office results, Zhang Wan took the initiative to report the mainland box office: "Now the total box office of our Golden Week is 213 million, and all major theaters have begun to contact us to delay the time for "Source Code", if this situation continues, even if we use a month to tie the record of the first week, we can be regarded as making a big profit!" ”

"Brother Zhang, do you want to go through the North American box office report with Columbia?" Shao Yingying asked with the phone.

Zhang Wan explained urgently: "How could I not want it? I'm also worried about the North American box office, but Chris said that their head office suffered a fire, and a guy smoked in the computer room and set fire to the pile of waste paper, and all the articles stored in the zài computer were destroyed, and they told us to wait an extra week. ”

"By the way, another Hollywood company has contacted us."

Hearing this, Shao Yingying asked directly: "Who?" ”

"MGM." After Zhang Wan finished saying the name, he didn't know how to say it and said, "That's the case." They came to me, but I had my secretary stop me, and we didn't have much contact with MGM. They will come up rashly, and I am afraid that I will fall into the pit, so I will not see them. ”

Shao Yingying smiled, which shows that the results of "Source Code" are not generally good in North America, otherwise it is absolutely impossible to attract MGM!

"Brother Zhang, contact MGM, don't agree to anything. Just listen to what he says, and you fool the people at MGM as you fool Colombia away. Remember. When you contact MGM, you can reveal a little bit of your complaint, uh, just complain that we haven't gotten the box office report for Source Code in North America until now. In addition, only the friendship of the landlord is allowed. I promise, you're bound to get something out of it. ”

Shao Yingying is not familiar with Hollywood, but he also knows that those big Hollywood companies are used to tearing each other down, when Zhang Wan contacted MGM, Shao Yingying didn't believe that MGM's people didn't want to snatch the script of "Source Code", otherwise, why did he come all the way here?

Well, take the relationship between Colombia and Huayi. How are the people at MGM going to tear down the stage?

Quite simply, it's a guò chat to hear what you're complaining about. If you complain that there was a fire in Columbia, and there is a lot less text, then they must have something to say, for example, they will tell you that there was no fire in Columbia, and even if there is a fire, it will not take long to calculate the box office provided by a theater. For example, they will directly come up with the box office number to prove that their ability to do things is stronger than that of Colombia, no matter how MGM chooses, Shao Yingying can grasp the first-hand information at the first time, after all, the official statistics will not be released until a few days later.

After the 11th Golden Week, the mainland box office began to decline collectively, and the box office performance of "Source Code" dropped by 80 million in the second week, and it passed the second week with a score of 130 million. This is not only the result of the decline in spending power in the market after the end of Golden Week, but also the ...... Piracy came out.

Shao Yingying was busy with the second publicity on the way back to the company and saw a vendor selling "Source Code" pirated disks with his back pockets, and he also specially asked Sun Shengnan to buy one, and when he returned to the company, he was not furious, because this pirated disk was not stolen in China, it should be in South Korea, he can see very obvious Korean and English double subtitles under the screen, even if Shao Yingying in the movie still speaks Chinese.

Okay, now this group of pirates is big enough, and they have all started to internationalize......

Fortunately, even though "Source Code" only grossed 130 million in the second week, it still won the second week of the week and pushed the total box office to a height of 340 million.

In 97, "Titanic" set a box office record of 360 million in the mainland, which amazed all Chinese people, and even kept this record until today, because until today, no domestic film has ever reached the mainland box office of 360 million. This is also the reason why "Time Magazine" asked those nasty questions when interviewing Shao Yingying, people have enough capital to make him proud, even if that movie has nothing to do with him.

When the box office of "Source Code" reached 340 million, the media couldn't sit still again, and almost every newspaper and magazine began a comprehensive appeal, and even major websites participated in the call camp, and everyone wanted to see the moment when a domestic film broke the record of "Titanic".

Ten years ago, "Titanic" created a miracle of 360 million in the mainland, and this achievement made us spend a full decade chasing it. Today, I must say that we are almost catching up, we are only 20 million short! "Source Code" is about to trample the big ship under its feet with a score of 340 million, as a Chinese, I don't care whether this movie is good or bad, no matter the production company of this movie, I am willing to pay 200 yuan as a contributor to repeatedly contribute to the box office, just to break this humiliating record! And, I would like to appeal here, please everyone who has not seen this one can take a look at the original version, first, this movie will not disappoint you, and second, your ticket stub will always prove that you participated in this important battle, let's step on that ship together! ——Huayi Performing Arts Network.

"This is an exciting time, "Source Code" has approached "Titanic" with a box office of 340 million in two weeks, breaking this record has become inevitable, if someone wants to see this day come soon, they can go to the cinema to contribute." —Southern Weekly.

"Winning is a certainty, it depends on when you win. Perhaps, this is the most exhilarating moment for the fans, we are now 20 million away from the ship overhead, and that's it. —National Telegraph.

"A roar from the East. He once said that sooner or later he would trample the "Titanic" under his feet, and now, he has done it, he is the mysterious Oriental who this magazine interviewed wèn, the hero - Shao! —Time Magazine.

Two weeks have passed, and all the newspapers, magazines, and websites have begun a storm of propaganda when "Source Code" is about to break the record set by "Titanic", and they know that this moment will come sooner or later.

At this time, Zhang Wan brought back two pieces of information from MGM's contact, first of all, the box office of "Source Code" in North America reached 27 million in the first week, squeezing into the top ten of the single-week box office list, if it weren't for the temporary change of schedule of "Spy 3" from August to October, then, "Source Code", which has not been impacted, is likely to rank higher, after all, the single-week performance of "Spy 3" has reached 70.18 million; The second news is that "Source Code" is being actively screened in North America, and Columbia is also negotiating with major theaters about the delay, after all, the longer the film hangs on the screen, the higher the proportion of tiers that the producer and distributor get.

With these two pieces of news, Shao Yingying had a complete bottom in his heart, and he asked Zhang Wan again: "Has there ever been a fire in Colombia?" ”

"I also asked this question, but there was no response, they said that they had not paid attention to this issue."

Call.

Shao Yingying took a breath, thought in the office, and asked for a while: "MGM is also here to buy the rights to adapt the script?" ”

"No, MGM came to ask if we had any plans to make a sequel, and they wanted to buy the script for the sequel, which means that they would release the sequel themselves to create a Hollywood source code blockbuster. In addition, they wanted to buy all the rights to Source Code from us, making the film a MGM franchise, and they would never ask us to refund all of the box office receipts for the first part of Source Code. ”

Hearing this, Shao Yingying smiled and said crookedly: "If you want to be beautiful, if they want us to retreat, we have to agree." ”

Shao Yingying, who leaned back on his chair, looked at the ceiling and said, "Wait, wait until we break the record of "Titanic"......"

"Also, Time Magazine is here again, and they want to interview you a second time." When Shao Yingying heard Zhang Wan's last news, his whole person was in good spirits: "Arrange it, I really want to hear what the reporter has to say." ”

Touch.

The door of the office was pushed open by Wu Rubo's daughter-in-law at this time, and she forgot about these for the first time, which made Shao Yingying and Zhang Wan look back at the same time.

"It's broken!"

Zhang Wan hurriedly asked, "What's broken?" ”

Shao Yingying glared and said, "Is it really broken?" ”

Wu Rubo's daughter-in-law nodded quickly: "It's really broken!" ”

Zhang Wandu was about to make these two people crazy: "What the hell is broken!" (To be continued......)
