Chapter 020: Shouldering a Heavy Responsibility
Cinema reception.
Xu Zheng, Ning Hao, and Baoqiang chatted about the filming of "People in Embarrassment".
There were many audience members and reporters sitting in the front row, and everyone asked questions to set off the atmosphere before the screening.
The position of Hengyu and the four of them is in the middle of the theater two rows back, and the best position is naturally reserved for Han Dong and other bigwigs in the entertainment industry.
Andy was holding his mobile phone and watching the news boringly, and suddenly pushed Fang Ziheng with his elbow: "Hey, why don't you go up?" ”
"I just played a small supporting role, why go up and rub the heat!"
"Our Hengyu is one of the investors, why don't you go up!"
Let's Hengyu.
Fang Ziheng looked at the ice beauty and smiled with satisfaction.
Sister An's centripetal force is good, and it didn't take long for her to completely integrate into the big family of Hengyu.
After Hengyu was established, Fang Ziheng transferred the investment in "People in Embarrassment" to the company's name.
On the one hand, it is to facilitate accounting and tax transactions, and on the other hand, it is for "People in Embarrassment" to pass the review.
Huaguo's films, if they want to pass the review, they must have complete procedures.
"Forget it, you didn't even send anyone up to the movie."
"When our company's movies are released, I can stand on the stage for as long as I want, and I can talk as long as I want."
Hearing Fang Ziheng be so shameless, Andy turned his head in surprise, stunned and speechless.
"Hypocrisy!"
After speaking, she didn't give Fang Ziheng a chance to refute, turned around and whispered to Concubine Lin, leaving the back of her head for him.
In the front row, Yu Feihong couldn't help but cover his mouth and snicker, only thinking that the concubine's Hengyu company was really interesting.
The boss is not like the boss, and the employees are not like the employees.
As the time came to seven o'clock, the film was officially screened.
The first to appear was Xu Zhengxu's bald head, and he wore a wig in the movie, which was in strong contrast to the appearance of bragging on stage just now.
"People in Embarrassment" is undoubtedly a very brilliant comedy movie, with dense and unconventional laughs, as well as an exploration of people's hearts.
Baoqiang's turtle and Xu Zheng's shrewdness form a great contrast, and an inadvertent small action and dialogue can make the audience laugh.
Hearing the continuous laughter in the theater, Xu Zheng and Ning Hao, who were sitting in the first row, breathed a sigh of relief, and put down most of the big stone in their hearts.
The audience's feedback does not seem to be fake, indicating that the premiere was a success, and it depends on whether the box office will be strong tomorrow.
After the movie ended, everyone in the audience stood up and applauded.
Hua Yi Xiao Wang clapped his hands and was worried.
Feng Pants's "If You Are Honest, Do Not Disturb" has been released for a week, and the box office slashed by 80 million in the first weekend.
The cost of the movie is less than 30 million, and Hua Yi will definitely make a lot of money in this wave.
However, at this time, "People in Embarrassment" came out, and the two movies were both comedies, and they were only released a week apart.
Xiao Wang has confidence in Feng Pants, and he also knows that if the two tigers fight, there will be damage.
"People in Embarrassment" is a small-cost production, with a budget of less than 10 million, and those who are barefoot are not afraid to wear shoes, Hua Yi really can't do anything about people.
Xiao Wang didn't think that Xu Zheng could steal the limelight of Feng Pants, what he was really worried about was that he was afraid that "People in Embarrassment" would steal the box office that originally belonged to "If You Are Honest, Do Not Disturb".
In Xiao Wang's heart, in the field of comedy for the Chinese New Year this year, the box office output should belong to Hua Yi and "If You Are Honest, Do Not Disturb".
"No, I have to talk to my eldest brother when I go back, let Xiao Gang stop filming the big earthquake next year, and let him do the whole comedy first."
"In addition, if you have more contact with Xu Zheng, it is best to get him to Huayi."
Thinking of this, Xiao Wang turned his head to look back, and happened to glance at Fang Ziheng who had seen it.
Looking at each other, Xiao Wang smiled reservedly, and underestimated in his heart: "This kid, won't he also make a comedy?" ”
.........
After the premiere, Fang Ziheng didn't stay long and returned to the company directly.
Xu Zheng and Baoqiang continued to run non-stop publicity, and Ning Hao also accepted a lot of interviews, and he really didn't have time to entertain everyone.
Hengyu General Manager's Office.
The four of them sat on the sofa, still reminiscing about the movie "People in Embarrassment".
Wen Muye held an apple in his hand and said curiously: "You say, how much box office can this movie get?" ”
"At least twenty million!"
Andy was the first to respond, and took "Crazy Stone" as an example.
"The plot of the movie is compact, it takes the market route, and it is the first Spring Festival theme, and the box office of 20 million is only a lot more."
Fang Ziheng nodded, the ice beauty is worthy of being a high-achieving student, not only using data analysis, but also comparing according to the actual situation.
He roughly has a number of box office points for "People in Embarrassment", although there is a year difference between the time of release and the previous life, but because it is in the Chinese New Year, the box office foothold in this life is estimated to be higher.
He didn't hurriedly throw out his speculation about the box office, but looked at Concubine Lin who was gnawing on apples.
"Sister Lin thinks so."
When she first came back, Ice Beauty didn't know which tendon was wrong, so she bought a big bag of apples and came back, saying that she would like to invite everyone to celebrate Christmas.
Fang Ziheng originally wanted to say that Christmas is a foreigner's holiday, and Lao Tzu is a flower grower, and he does not engage in the set of worshipping foreign flattery.
After thinking about it, forget it, Andy took the initiative to treat guests, and being a boss can't always hit the kindness of his subordinates.
"I also think that the box office of "People in Embarrassment" will be very good, 20 million is the bottom line, and 30 million is not impossible."
"Don't forget, after December is the Spring Festival travel period, "People in Embarrassment" almost expresses the difficulties of our country's Spring Festival journey, as long as the film's reputation is strong, a little publicity will resonate with the masses."
Sister Lin said what Fang Ziheng was thinking.
In the last life, "People in Embarrassment" was released in June, although it took the summer vacation, but it also missed the big hot spot of the Spring Festival.
In the previous life, the total box office of "People in Embarrassment" was more than 37 million, with a total investment of 7 million, which is a veritable little dark horse.
The investment in this life has increased by 1 million, a total of 8 million, with the bonus of the New Year stalls and the Spring Festival hot spots, and it is possible for the box office to exceed 50 or 60 million.
Sixty million!
After deducting the income from the theater chain and the distribution costs, the producer can almost get nearly 20 million.
Hengyu Media accounts for 20% of the investment share, that is, 4 million, and the net profit is 2.4 million.
It was launched in August and released at the end of December, with an income of up to 15% in less than half a year.
After discussing "People in Embarrassment", Concubine Lin, Andy, and Wen Muye were undiminished, and they started to speculate and analyze the box office of "The Nameless".
Among the three, Wen Muye was the most excited.
This guy kept talking, conducting an all-round analysis of "The Nameless", praising Fang Ziheng in and out of words, and finally changed the conversation: "Director Fang, now the role of propaganda is getting bigger and bigger, let's only smack two million fees, isn't it a little less!" ”
"Two million is a lot, and the publicity and distribution cost of "People in Embarrassment" is only a few hundred thousand."
Fang Ziheng snorted twice and glared at him, he really didn't know how expensive firewood and rice were at home.
Tens of millions of small cost to make, what more bicycles.
When the movie is released, it will not be enough to go on TV a few more times.
Thinking of being on TV more, Fang Ziheng squinted his eyes and looked at Concubine Lin like a wolf grandmother: "Sister Lin, I will give you full authority for the promotion of "The Nameless", you are the person in charge of publicity and distribution!" ”
"How to fight a beautiful propaganda war and fire the first shot of our Hengyu depends on you, Sister Lin."
Sister Lin has a deep background and a huge network, so it's a pity not to make good use of it.
Brush..!
Andy and Wen Muye's eyes looked at it instantly.
"I..."
Sister Lin's beautiful eyes widened, and she suddenly felt her shoulders sink, and a cauldron flew down from the sky towards her.
She opened her red lips, looked at the expectant eyes of the three people, and suddenly was full of pride, and waved her big hand: "Okay, leave the propaganda to me!"
Don't worry, I will definitely let the news of the release of "Nobody" enter thousands of households. ”
