"How many?"

"It seems like it's almost 200 million."

"I'm going to go, this shit is going crazy."

On September 25, "The Richest Man in Xihong City" was screened nationwide, with a total of 80,130 screenings.

Such a large-scale screening naturally attracted the attention of many peers. Therefore, a bunch of people are watching to see how much the box office of "The Richest Man in Xihong City" can reach today.

Xu Huazhang and Remy are one of them. Xu Chuan, as the main Chinese artist they are currently suppressing, needs to pay attention to any major trends.

"The data hasn't been closed yet?" In a villa in Shanghai, Xu Huazhang leaned on the sofa and smoked a cigar.

"In fact, it has ended, and if nothing else, today's single-day box office is 200 million. In this way, the total box office of Xu Chuan's movie will reach 300 million in two days. Remy, who was across from him, replied.

Hearing this, Xu Huazhang's calm expression that he had been deliberately maintaining was almost untenable.

After swallowing the clouds and spitting out the fog for a while, he pretended to be calm and said, "Are there so many? Did that rural person from the countryside brush up on the box office? ”

"I don't know." Remy shook his head.

After speaking, she glanced at the computer screen in front of her, just as the latest box office news officially released by the ticketing software at this time.

So she said: "It's officially confirmed, and the box office of this movie has reached 300 million in two days." ”

Hearing this, Xu Huazhang sighed, took another puff of cigarette and said, "How much does his movie cost?" ”

"I can't find the specific figures, but all the costs combined, it is estimated that it is only in the early 200 million, and it is likely that it will not reach 200 million. If the 300 million is real data, then he is afraid that this movie will make a lot of money. ”

Hearing this, Xu Huazhang couldn't help but pause while still smoking a cigar, and began to calculate Xu Chuan's income in his mind.

The sharing of the movie is actually not complicated. 5% of the total box office will be paid as a special development fund for films, and 3.3% of the relevant taxes and fees will be paid at the same time.

It is worth mentioning that this 3.3% tax is not the same as the income tax paid on the box office revenue. If you take the box office, you have to pay it, no matter if you make it or not.

After paying these things clearly, the rest is the box office that can be divided.

is like the 300 million box office of "The Richest Man in Xihong City". The money that can really be used to get the theater, Xu Chuan and the distributor to share is about 270 million.

Of these, 50% are cinemas and 7% are cinemas. The remaining 43% is Xu Chuan's side and the issuer.

According to the contract signed between Xu Chuan and the distributor, he accounted for 33% of the box office and the distributor accounted for 10%.

Calculated in this way, with a box office of 300 million, Xu Chuan's revenue is more than 90 million.

The cost of "The Richest Man in Xihong City" is actually far less than Remy guessed, and the total cost of production plus publicity and other expenses will be 150 million.

The cost of publicity is now the lion's share of the bill. Xu Chuan's side actually paid about 110 million.

In other words, the box office of the two-day screening Xu Chuan can actually be regarded as a return to the capital, and the rest is to see how much money is earned.

In the villa, after Xu Huazhang calculated the accounts for a while, he extinguished the cigar in the ashtray, took a few deep breaths, and then continued to pretend to speak indifferently: "I don't know if this box office is true yet."

When it is released, it is not certain whether it will collapse or not. It's too early to say that the redneck made a lot of money.

By the way, he arranged 80,000 screenings in the screening venue so shamelessly, and now he is brushing so many box offices, is there no movement among his peers in the film industry? ”

When Remy heard this, he immediately understood what Xu Huazhang meant, so he said, "I'll arrange it." ”

At the same time, the popularity of the entry #The richest man in Xihong City on the Internet with a two-day box office of 300 million# continues to rise.

To be honest, it is not for nothing that the box office broke 300 million in two days after the release.

But the box office reached 300 million in two days of screening, and "The Richest Man in Xihong City" is still the first one.

This is simply unheard of for many peers.

A feeling of jealousy rose uncontrollably from their hearts, and the whole person was a little uncomfortable.

Even Bai Baiyu, who is on Xu Chuan's side, felt a little sour after seeing this box office data.

Last time in the car, he asked Xu Chuan what the estimated box office was, and when he heard Xu Chuan report a 2.5 billion out, he thought that Xu Chuan was daydreaming.

Now this data can be regarded as a slap in the face, so that he has to muttered from time to time: "This grandson is really unreasonable, how can he do anything or something?" Now the screening can be ordered like this, and the public screening is not allowed to go to the sky! ”

It was at this time that some content suddenly began to appear on the Internet complaining about Xu Chuan's ugly appearance.

It's completely shameless to say that 80,000 screenings have been screened.

How can anyone order 80,000 screenings?

Are you on the spot?

People are all scheduled for public screening, and they are not as fucking as you.

Some so-called industry insiders came out one after another as if they had been discussed.

Opportunism, disregard for the lives of others, breaking the rules of the industry, and destroying the unity of the film industry can be all buttoned up by Xu Chuan.

This voice of public opinion naturally reached Xu Chuan's ears.

At this time, he was sitting on the bed and recovering his soul.

There are many night owls in the entertainment industry, and Xu Huazhang can not sleep in the middle of the night. But Xu Chuan can't, his biological clock has always been relatively regular. And he's almost tired like a dog these days, where can he stay up all night.

After returning to his soul for a while, he looked at the time, and it clearly showed that it was half past one in the morning.

So, he opened his mouth and said into the phone: "This group of people has this perseverance, isn't it better to do something than to pull these eggs on the Internet?" ”

"Hahaha, Brother Chuan, don't be angry, they just want to take advantage of this point that no one will make the content real, so that tomorrow morning, everyone will see what they want."

Xu Chuan naturally understands this truth better than anyone else, but after he was woken up, his mood was uncontrollable and irritable.

is also because it is an employee of Xu Chuan's studio who called, so he will speak more casually.

After coming back to his senses for a while, Xu Chuan continued: "In this way, you arrange for someone to upload news on the Internet, and say that our screening on the 26th will be increased from 80,000 to 120,000. ”

"Huh?" The person on the other end of the phone was stunned for a moment, and then said, "Didn't you agree to add it here?" ”

As I said before, there are no good movies at this point in time, and the theater chain is open every day to do business, and the attendance rate is quite bleak. Now that "The Richest Man in Xihong City" is so strong, it is natural to want to continue to increase the opening.

But Xu Chuan's side did not agree. The reason is just like those people on the Internet now, 80,000 screenings are already a very jealous show, and they will indeed face problems in public opinion.

Of course, the "whining" and "smearing" of peers can actually be used as farting.

But the public is also an extremely susceptible group to public opinion. If this kind of public opinion is not handled properly, it may provoke a rejection reaction outside of the movie.

This kind of rejection will affect some people who originally planned to watch Xu Chuan's movie, and finally didn't watch it.

Especially those who don't have a strong desire themselves, but because everyone goes to see it, he goes to watch it when he's bored. Or maybe you're just going to go to the movies, but you can watch anything.

These two groups actually contribute a large proportion of the box office. If you really don't look at these public opinions, Xu Chuan's income will be reduced a lot.

"Let's put it first, and then arrange some people to bring the rhythm, and mention the 120,000 screenings more. When the public opinion is almost over, I will find a time to clarify it tomorrow. Xu Chuan said.

"Okay, then you can rest first, and I'll arrange it here." The person on the other end of the line didn't ask why.

After hanging up the phone, Xu Chuan opened his mobile phone with his strength and looked at related topics on the Internet.

After looking at it for a while, he felt that there was nothing new, so he threw his phone aside and continued to sleep with his head covered.

It is worth mentioning that what he just arranged was not messed up. In fact, when he wanted to increase the number of screenings yesterday, he had already thought about it.

Therefore, the practice of letting this kind of gossip go out is a plan he prepared in advance.

This is done for three purposes.

The first is to find some topics to stimulate the market's attention to the movie, which can come from positive or negative public opinion.

The second purpose is to anchor the figure of 120,000.

Why anchor this?

Mr. Lu Xun famously said that if you want to open a window, then you had better come up with a suggestion to lift the roof.

Although the phrase was originally intended to refer to our eclectic character, it is actually used all over the world. This strategy is often used in commercial pricing.

Therefore, instead of asking them to raise 80,000 now, it is better to let them mention 120,000 things, anyway, Xu Chuan doesn't really plan to open 120,000 games, this is a complete rumor.

But with the 120,000 in this rumor in the front and 80,000 in the back, everyone will be a little more acceptable.

You know, it's easy to raise the threshold for accepting numbers. It's like a lot of people can't take out 10,000 yuan, but they still feel from the bottom of their hearts that there are very few prizes of 10 million.

It's not pretending, it's not hard-mouthed. It is because the number on the Internet is often measured in billions, which makes people's perception of 10 million biased.

Anyway, if you do this, at least on the audience's side, there is a high chance that the number of 80,000 screenings will be desensitized. Originally, compared to peers, the audience didn't have much concept of this thing.

As long as the audience doesn't feel anything wrong after desensitization. That peer can still be used as a fart.

The above is the second purpose, and the last purpose is that Xu Chuan wants to raise the file.

Now the momentum of "The Richest Man in Xihong City" is too strong, and the number of screenings with a high attendance rate is a batch, considering that there is still a "70 Years" to be launched on the National Day.

Xu Chuan pondered that it would be better to take advantage of the current file and let the theater directly pull the film scheduling rate to the top, and then eat a wave of box office first.

If you want to achieve this effect, you have to go back to the second purpose, which is to anchor the number of 120,000.

Since there are so many screenings, the number of films scheduled for public screening is really 120,000, and it seems much more reasonable to pull the film scheduling rate to more than 30%.

Perhaps, according to the actual situation of the current theater chain, it is not impossible to pull to 40%.

Of course, this scheduling rate is the next few days, and after other movies come up later, it would be quite ideal to have a 25% scheduling rate.

After a night without words, the next morning, the first thing Xu Chuan did when he got up was to pay attention to public opinion on the Internet.

After a night of fermentation, the more exciting number of 120,000 replaced 80,000.

In addition, Xu Chuan has a lot of sunspots, and now the crusade on the Internet about the ugly appearance of "The Richest Man in Xihong City" is even more enthusiastic. If this were a different person, it wouldn't have been so much attention.

After studying it and calling to explain some things, Xu Chuan didn't care anymore.

In the afternoon, Xu Chuan started his first roadshow in Zhengzhou.

At the same time, in the chairman's office of Ziyi Media on the other side, Xu Huazhang leaned back and put his legs on the desk and said, "Do you remember what I said about Xu Chuan before?" ”

"Yes." Remy, who was sitting on the sofa, nodded when he heard this.

"The countryman from a poor place is like this, greedy, you know, only care about the little interests in front of him, 120,000 screenings, and he can figure it out." Xu Huazhang sneered.

After finishing speaking, he didn't wait for Remy to reply, but continued to ask: "How is Cheng Quanxing's arrangement?" ”

"He already agreed to work with us yesterday. To be honest, watching these newcomers who have nothing to do with him rise up, their group of people is more uncomfortable than us. Remy began.

When Xu Huazhang heard this, the leg that was originally resting on the table was immediately retracted, and he slapped it and said, "Okay!" It's just going to have to be a bit of a bit of a hot. ”

Cheng Quanxing, who is 65 years old this year, is one of the most prestigious and well-known directors in China. The most valuable thing about such a director is not only himself, but also those people and forces around him.

"Eh, the official account of "The Richest Man in Xihong City" has just been clarified, saying that 120,000 shows are rumors, and the number of shows arranged today is still 80,000, and there is no increase." Remy said, looking at his phone.

"Convinced, this is? I thought that hillbilly's heart was higher than the sky, and he still had time to be soft? Xu Huazhang laughed dumbly when he heard this.

After laughing for a while, he suddenly realized that something was wrong: "No, who released the news of this 120,000 games?" ”

"Popping up on the Internet."

"Fooled, this news must have been released by the migrant worker himself." Although Xu Huazhang spoke arrogantly.

But this does not mean that he is an idiot, on the contrary, he can become the new leader of Ziyi Media, which naturally has a few brushes.

As soon as he said this, Remy also reflected what was going on.

At this moment, she suddenly realized why the group of people from Ziyi Media at that time could never play Xu Chuan.

This small fight was easily resolved by him, which is equivalent to giving him a topic for nothing to continue to stir up the heat.

Thinking of this, he opened the comment area of the relevant rumor-refuting news again.

Basically, they all persuaded Xu Chuan not to listen to those "sour people" farting, and to open more shows early so that everyone could watch the movie early.

In the evening, Remy found that there were more and more people who wanted Xu Chuan to open more screenings, and she wouldn't believe it if no one pushed and killed Remy in the back.

Thinking of this, Remy got up and went to Xu Huazhang's office, and the first thing he said when he entered the office was: "Xu Dong, why do I think Xu Chuan is planning to raise the file?" ”

After saying this, she told Xu Huazhang about the public opinion situation again.

After listening, Xu Huazhang, who was originally dealing with other things, stopped what he was doing and began to think.

After thinking about it for a while, he was just about to speak, when he heard a sentence from Remy's side: "It's really been raised, a notice has been issued, and the file will be released on the 27th." ”

"Tomorrow?" Xu Huazhang said when he heard this.

"Yes, tomorrow, according to this trend, the film scheduling rate is estimated to break 30%." Remy spoke.

"How much does he have at the box office now?"

"It's already over 400 million." Remy looked at the data.

Hearing this, Xu Huazhang couldn't help but look at his watch, it's only 8 o'clock now, and today's box office is estimated to be 500 million.

The screening point reached a box office of 500 million in three days.

This fuck!

This made Xu Huazhang couldn't help but take out a cigarette and light it and said, "Tsk...... Do you know why that turtle in the countryside is so annoying to his peers?

Because he has always had to make big news since his debut, it seems that he is so capable. Everyone is pretending to be a grandson to get up step by step, he wants to be a grandfather when he comes up, why? ”

Xu Huazhang's words didn't seem to match Remy's topic.

But it is actually very expressive of his feelings, because he predicts that when Xu Chuan raises the file in this situation, the box office will be better.

But he has nothing to do, if Ziyi also has a movie online now, he can still think about stealing Xu Chuan's box office, the problem is that Ziyi doesn't have this project.

As a result, he can only achieve verbal victory through belittling and ridicule.

In other words, Xu Huazhang is actually a bit of a defensebreaker, especially the last sentence that everyone is pretending to be a grandson to get up step by step.

On the surface, he is talking about Xu Chuan's peers, but in fact, he is also talking about himself. It's true that he is a rich second generation, but he still has to kneel when he should kneel.

After kneeling for a long time, seeing Xu Chuan, a person like Xu Chuan standing and eating, the uncomfortable feeling was indescribable.

On the other side, Xu Chuan, who was annoying to his peers in Xu Huazhang's mouth, was receiving a call from his seventh colleague who was looking for him today.

"Not really, if there is a new project, I will be the first to notify you."

"It's not a prevarication, I also know that you have plenty of funds and resources over there, but I really don't have any new projects recently."

"Okay, okay, keep in touch, keep in touch."

After saying this, Xu Chuan hung up the phone, threw the phone aside, and then couldn't help but rub his head.

Seven calls, each with similar content, were all asking if Xu Chuan had any new projects. If there is a new project, be sure to give them a share of the investment.

What annoys peers and the like, it's something that can only be said after a preset position. Capital is profit-seeking, and there is no position at all.

Today, Xu Chuan has affected their interests, and Xu Chuan is their father, so he is ruthless. On the contrary, if Xu Chuan can make money with them, then he can also be about equal to the father of these people.

The entertainment industry has never been short of money, what is lacking is good projects. However, it is difficult to judge whether the project is good or not, so there is an investment method to chase the fame and past achievements of the main creator.

Obviously, Xu Chuan, who has done nothing in the past few years, is "a good project in a good project" in the eyes of many capitals.

It just so happens that movies are the direction that everyone prefers to vote. After waiting for three days of box office data, these people finally couldn't bear it.

Another few hours passed, and the news that the box office of "The Richest Man in Xihong City" exceeded 500 million appeared on the Internet.

Now, there are more people thinking about calling Xu Chuan.

The night passed, and the next morning, the first thing Xu Huazhang did after getting up was to call Remy to ask about the film schedule of "The Richest Man in Xihong City" released today.

"The latest news is 160,000 games, and the film scheduling rate has reached 40%."

Hearing this, Xu Huazhang finally couldn't maintain his calm image.

began to scold angrily: "Shit! Fuck, these movie theater owners are crazy, is that turtle their dad or their grandfather, how can there be such a film? ”

"Dong Xu, there really aren't any good movies to arrange in the past two days." Remy explained helplessly.

"Pay attention to how much he can get at the single-day box office today, and report to me as soon as there is news." Xu Huazhang hung up the phone directly after speaking.

The day passed quickly, but for Xu Huazhang, today was particularly difficult.

Although he said that he wanted Remy to pay attention, he was actually paying attention himself.

At 8 p.m., the box office reached 700 million.

At 9 p.m., the box office reached 800 million.

At 10 o'clock in the evening, the box office went straight to 900 million.

In the end, in the early hours of the morning, the box office of "The Richest Man in Xihong City" was fixed at 914 million.

In other words, in one day, "The Richest Man in Xihong City" won a single-day box office of 408 million under the super high film schedule. You can't get into the top 10 on the planet.

The single-day box office of "Tang Detective 3", which ranked first, reached 1.011 billion.

"Monster Hunt 2", which ranked eighth, also reached a single-day high of 546 million.

But in Blue Star, Xu Chuan's "The Richest Man in Xihong City" currently ranks first in the single-day box office in the history of domestic films.

"! This country dog!! "Xu Huazhang is really a little unbearable.

After Remy on the other side saw this data, he recalled Xu Huazhang's various contemptuous accusations for Xu Chuan, and a lot of thoughts came to his mind for a while.

At the same time, their counterparts in the film industry are completely insane.

In their opinion, such a broken comedy can make so much money? Can you make so much money by changing your own vote?

The theater chain is also crazy, how much do you make in the queue, isn't it? Tomorrow there will be a little more.

"Damn, I don't want to be the box office champion director, right?" The director of the richest man in Xihong City went crazy, looking at this achievement, the whole person fell into a beautiful fantasy.

The directors are crazy, and those actors are naturally no exception.

The heroine Du Wenyu looked at this achievement, and the whole person fell directly into a state of confusion.

Is she going to become the heroine of the box office champion?

Just me?

Just me, Du Wenyu, can too?

At this moment, she recalled the experience when she participated in "Creation 101" and wanted a debut position, but her agency Haehan didn't want to praise her.

And Lin Mengying, as a producer and producer, is even more crazy in madness.

She never thought that the first film she invested in would achieve such good results.

So, the crazy Lin Mengying frantically rewarded Xu Chuan, and the award-winning Xu Chuan's legs were shaking when he walked the next day.

On the 28th, the film scheduling rate of "The Richest Man in Xihong City" reached a new high, reaching about 45%.

However, the box office did not rise as expected, but declined a little, and the daily box office on the 28th was 395 million, which was not much down.

As a result, the box office of "The Richest Man in Xihong City" also came to 1.309 billion.

The amount of account sharing on Xu Chuan's side reached 396 million. Compared with his cost of 110 million, it can be said that he has doubled.

On the 29th, the film schedule returned to 40%, and the daily box office continued to decline, and it is currently 302 million, which is already a big drop compared to the previous day.

However, no one will sing the film down because of this decline.

Because it's not normal if it doesn't fall.

Compared with the cliff-like decline of some movies, the decline of "The Richest Man in Xihong City" is quite strong.

At this time, the total box office of the movie has reached 1.611 billion.

The release time is a month, and only three days have passed now, and there are still about 27 days to go.

The movie "The Richest Man in Xihong City" is estimated by peers, and the total box office is likely to reach 3 billion. If it really reaches 3 billion, "The Richest Man in Xihong City" is the No. 1 box office movie in the history of Blue Star comedy.

At the same time, it ranked fourth at the box office in the history of Blue Star films.

If it can exceed 3.8 billion, it will be the No. 1 box office movie in the history of Chinese domestic films.

The box office of the film history champions on the Blue Star side is far less than that on the planet. "Changjin Lake", which ranks first in film history on the earth, has 5.7 billion, and "Operation Red Sea", which ranks 10th, both have 3.6 billion.

Of course, for Xu Chuan, his filming of "The Richest Man in Xihong City" was just a test of the water, and he didn't expect to do so much on this movie.

If he really got 3 billion as his peers estimated, it would have been a big surprise to him. All he can do is to continue to do a good job of propaganda work in the coming time.

However, the reality did not allow him to continue the roadshow.

As soon as the National Day comes, it is a hassle to travel for two or three days at the beginning and end, so simply stop.

Second, Xu Chuan received two invitation letters from Zhao Kangnian.

The content of the invitation is simple.

The first one was used during the day on the viewing platform on the right side of the capital square. The second one is used to watch literary and artistic gatherings at night.

To be honest, when he saw these two invitations, Xu Chuan couldn't sleep with excitement.

He never imagined that one day he would be able to sit up close and watch such a ceremony.

Of course, all this has to be thanks to "Singing the Motherland".

Zhao Zhi said that everyone likes this song very much.

Thank you for your commuter pass.
