Chapter 209: Worth?
The filming cost of "The God of Medicine" was 78 million, and the publicity and marketing costs were almost 30 million.
Xiaobai's investment of 50 million, half of which has not arrived, according to the box office of 2.5 billion, the filmmaker's divisible box office is about 900 million, and it is not 600 million, but don't forget, the release of "God of Medicine" this time is controlled by Bai Xiaofei's studio, and the distribution fee is also paid in advance by Bai Xiaofei's studio, and the producer of the movie clearly says Bai Xiaofei Studio!
If you can take away most of the box office, that's how it should be!
According to the signed contract, in addition to box office revenue, copyright income and peripherals, Bai Xiaofei's studio can participate!
What I especially regret now is Dong Ping...
Dong Ping is the major shareholder of 21 Holdings, and Xu Zheng and Ning Hao are also shareholders of 21 Holdings.
By the way, Dong Ping is also the former chairman of Ahri Pictures.
Therefore, the first person who can participate in "I Am Not the God of Medicine" should be Ahri Pictures...
It's a pity that they came to the conclusion based on big data that the probability of hitting the street with a theme like "The God of Medicine" is 90%!
That's right, Ahri Pictures is so awesome, the vice president of the family publicly said, 'Ahri Pictures no longer hires professional screenwriters, but plans to select a group of online writers and post bar owners, and adapt their original online literature into movie stories, the specific form is to divide them into several groups to engage in a knockout competition, and the final winner's work will be adapted by Ahri to invite professional screenwriters to work together to adapt it into a film. ’
People also said the famous 'psychology of buying tickets with slings': making movies must meet the three major conditions of having IP, star lineup and slings counterattack theme, otherwise it will be "not collected".
To sum up, Ahri Pictures' attitude towards movies is: of course, making movies is to make money; Making IP movies is the best way to make money, and Chinese audiences are actually so confused!
It is true that movies are commodities, but after all, they are also art and expression, so how can they only recognize their economic attributes?
On the other hand, if the law allows, could it be that the entire film and television industry should become the Ivy industry?
……
On the 16th, "The God of Medicine" was officially released for 17 days, and the single-day box office of the movie has dropped to less than 30 million, although it still occupies the single-day box office...
It's the same with any movie, after the climax, there will be fewer viewers to watch it!
"God of Medicine" is not a special effects movie like "Avatar" that created a 3D pattern, it is just a 2D movie!
Fortunately, there are no Hollywood blockbusters released in the same period, according to the forecast, as of the 20th, before the release of "Ace Agent", the cumulative box office of "The God of Medicine" should reach 2.3 billion, and whether it can break 2.5 billion in the end depends on the screening time and whether "Ace Agent" will be powerful...
has passed the most critical period of publicity, and the main creative team is also much more relaxed, receiving interviews from time to time.
They are all busy people with their own things.
Xiaobai and Yang Lan have nothing to do recently, so they discussed it and are ready to go to Thailand to see the ladyboy!
Of course, I can only go for three days, "God of Medicine" is still in theaters after all, and some interviews and the like still have to be accepted, and on the 25th, there is a public media meeting for Bai Xiaofei's film plan...
At nine o'clock in the morning, the little couple went to the capital airport very happily, neither of them brought an assistant, went out on a trip, what assistant to bring?
After arriving at the airport, they were stunned and surrounded by a group of reporters and screaming fans!
“… it, what's the situation? ”
"You posted your itinerary on Weibo?"
"I just posted a plane ticket, and my fans never block me at the airport, except during the promotion period..."
Xiaobai is a little weak-hearted.
The young lady directly gave him a roll of the eyes...
The box office of "The God of Medicine" has soared all the way, and it is already the box office champion of 2D movies released in the mainland, of course, Xiaobai has to thank the fans, so he chatted with the fans on Weibo.
Someone asked him what his itinerary was recently, and he posted his plane ticket and said, "Combine work and rest"...
That's the case, although Xiaobai's Weibo fans have 40 million, most of them are Buddhist fans, and they never chase stars, send support, etc., even the recent super talk list, Xiaobai is ranked outside the three hundred, it stands to reason that there should be no fans who go to the airport to wait for him...
Mistaken!
"Director Bai, the box office of "God of Medicine" broke 2.2 billion, is this your expected result?"
“… I'll tell you the truth, I thought at first that I could get back to basics, so I was really surprised, I didn't expect it to be so good, I can only thank the audience! ”
While answering, he grabbed the young lady's hand tightly and walked in the direction of the departure hall.
How could the reporter who finally caught him let him go so easily: "Some people compare "God of Medicine" with "Wolf Warrior 2", saying that the box office of "God of Medicine" is not as good as "Wolf Warrior 2" is a shame for Chinese films, what do you think? ”
“… Says who? Sick, right? It's not a genre movie at all, how can it compare to the box office? "Wolf Warrior 2" is a very good work, and Wu Jing is also a good friend of mine, don't say such things in the future! ”
"Someone has calculated an account, the two movies "Wolf Warrior 2" and "God of Medicine", you can earn one billion, is it true?"
"I don't know, all my money is taken care of by the company's people, and I don't know how much money I have!"
I can't admit that this is killed, there is an element of showing off wealth!
"Some netizens suggested that you donate part of the money for charity, do you have this plan?"
“… Every time our studio produces a movie, we will retain one percent of the box office revenue for charity, so I won't bother netizens if I don't do charity! ”
"I heard..."
"Okay, we still have to catch a plane, if you have any questions, wait for me to come back from Thailand, and then ask again!"
Finally arrived at the waiting airport, and was about to go through the security check, Xiaobai waved his hand at the fans who had been following, directly pushed away the microphone in front of his nose, and turned his head to prepare for the security check.
The movements were inevitably a little rough, and the reporter was unsteady on his feet and fell to the ground.
“… Hit..."
I just wanted to touch porcelain, but I suddenly realized that there were cameras all around, and a group of fans holding mobile phones to record the video, and hurriedly got up from the ground...
Hey, in the era of self-media, it's not as easy as before to touch porcelain stars!
I think that at the beginning, Li Yapeng beat the paparazzi at the airport, which aroused the sympathy of many netizens...
"Southern Weekly" also published a special report - "Li Yapeng, I am not a prodigal person"
……
The plane took off, pulled the young lady over, let her lean in her arms, and for a long time, did not speak.
"What's wrong? Get up on the wrong side of the bed? ”
"No, I'm calculating how much money you have!"
“… Did you figure it out? ”
"It's too hard without a calculator, do you know it yourself?"
The young lady decided to give up, after all, the base was too big, and it was difficult to calculate love, which exceeded her brain capacity.
"I really don't know."
"There's always an approximate number, right?"
“… I'll do the math, from "Scrapwood Brothers" to "Knocking on Heaven's Door"... I can't figure it out, there are at least a billion anyway! ”
"You're so rich?"
Yang Lan was a little surprised, although she knew that Bai Xiaofei was a money-making machine, but in just three years, she had earned a net worth of more than one billion, which was too exaggerated!
“… Is a billion a lot? Twist vine and Ma Yun are worth tens of billions of dollars! ”
The young lady asked rhetorically: "Why don't you say that Jeff Bezos is worth more than 100 billion dollars?" ”
“… What does it have to do with me that he has money? ”
"Then what does Ma Yun's money have to do with you?"
“… Well, every man has a dream of being the richest man! ”
"And the dream of a group of wives and concubines?"
