"Senior brother, the box office of "Painted Skin 2" broke 50 million on the first day, and the box office reached 120 million in three days on the first weekend, which is even better than "Walking with God", a big hit!"

Listening to the excited voice on the other end of the phone, Wu Yuan shook his head with a smile.

He knew the box office results of "Painted Skin 2" in the first weekend earlier than Liu Yifei, but he still said with a smile: "It's so stakes, it seems that it is the right choice to choose director Kaige to take over this series." ”

In this life, the box office market of Chinese-speaking mainland films is even better than the same period in the previous life, and has even doubled.

Taking "Let the Bullets Fly" released in 2010 as an example, the movie had a box office of 30.18 million on the first day, a box office of over 40 million on the second day, and a maximum single-day box office of 60 million, with a total box office of about 170.2 million in the first week.

The box office of "Tangshan Earthquake", which was released in the same year, was 36.2 million on the first day, breaking 160 million in four days, and 180 million in the first week (seven days).

It's only 2009 now, and the box office of "Painted Skin 2" broke 50 million on the first day, and the box office was 120 million in three days over the weekend, which is undoubtedly twice as fast as the original time and space.

can have such good box office results, of course, not only because of the quality of "Painted Skin 2" itself, but also because Wu Yuan has opened up the mainland film market.

Otherwise, according to normal time and space, when "Painted Skin 2" was released in 2012, the box office on the first day could be 70 million, which is even more exaggerated.

But does this mean that "Painted Skin 2" is really better than 2010's "Let the Bullets Fly" and "Tangshan Earthquake"?

Not necessarily.

The main reason why "Painted Skin 2" can achieve such good box office results in 2012 is that the plate of the film market is larger, and more people choose to go to the cinema to watch movies, which makes the box office of this movie so good.

Otherwise, Guo Xiaosi's "Little Times" is often hundreds of millions of box office, does it mean that the movie is a high-quality movie?

How much box office a movie can get in the end, although its own quality is important, but the more important thing is to see whether the film market is big at the time of release.

After Wu Yuan woke up from his dream, his biggest contribution to the Chinese film market was not to win several major European awards, nor to make many blockbusters in Hollywood.

His greatest contribution is to accelerate the development of the mainland film market!

After the stimulation of many excellent movies such as "Your Name", "Painted Skin" and "Gravity", many Chinese people who were not interested in watching movies in the cinema were brought into the cinema.

At present, the domestic film market is almost one or two years faster than the original time and space!

Don't underestimate this year or two!

The total box office of mainland movies in 2009 was only 6.2 billion.

By 2010, that number had become 10.172 billion.

In 2012, it grew to 17 billion!

This is the result of the original time and space, and after Wu Yuan was born, this year is not over, the total box office of mainland movies has reached 8 billion, and there are Chinese New Year movies released on the 12th, 18th, and 28th in the last month, and the total box office in the mainland in 2009 is afraid that it is expected to hit 10 billion!

"Walking with God" and "Painted Skin 2" are leading the charge!

"The final box office result of "Walking with God" reached 460 million, ranking first in the box office list of mainland films this year!"

"The first place position has not yet been hot, "Painted Skin 2" has been released again, "Painted Skin 2" has the popularity of the previous work, this box office increase data looks more fierce than "Walking with God", it is possible to break 500 million box office!"

"In this way, this year's light and shadow era alone will be able to win 1 billion box office, accounting for one-eighth of the total box office in the mainland!"

"Although the company does not produce many movies every year, we take the boutique route, and one of them tops ten of other film companies!"

On the phone, Wu Yuan said to Liu Yifei proudly.

Although the light and shadow era only produces three or five movies a year, the quality is hard enough, except for the unprofitable literary films such as "Ocean Paradise", just two commercial films can earn more than 300 million net profits for the company!

In addition, the company's TV drama business can earn 100 million yuan a year, and the brokerage business is becoming more and more one of the biggest money-makers.

Roughly calculated, the era of light and shadow can almost earn more than 400 million and 500 million a year, and 400 million can be left after paying taxes.

On the side of the cinema brand in the era of light and shadow, there are not many profits, and most of the profits have been invested in the expansion of the cinema chain again.

The film market in the mainland can develop better than the original time and space, and Wu Yuan's light and shadow era cinema has also contributed a large part of its efforts.

Otherwise, there are not enough movie theaters to support it, even if the audience wants to watch it, then they can't find a place to watch it!

In the past two years, the income of the theater chain in the light and shadow era has basically been used to continue to expand, and more than 60 theaters have been opened in China, as well as 16 franchised theaters, and the pace of expansion is still continuing.

As for the light and shadow broadcast, this thing is still a money-losing business, and you have to throw tens of millions of dollars into it every year to maintain the servers needed for domestic site operations.

After doing South Korea, Southeast Asia, and Japan, the money will have to continue to be doubled.

Wu Yuan has already arranged the financing of Light and Shadow Express, although he has made a lot of money, but it is impossible for Light and Shadow Express to get back the money in the short term, and it is not enough for him to keep smashing this bottomless pit alone.

However, thinking of the light and shadow broadcast, Wu Yuan thought of one thing that the company told him when he called him two days ago.

"Sissi, the later stage of "Lonely and Brilliant Gods and Ghosts" has been completed, and the company plans to premiere on New Year's Day on January 1st."

"tvN and Light and Shadow Express will be broadcast simultaneously, and it will be broadcast in the form of a Jinyao drama for the time being, with two episodes broadcast every Friday and will be broadcast in two months!"

Here in South Korea, the drama broadcast on Monday and Tuesday is called Moon Fire Drama, the drama broadcast on Wednesday and Thursday is called Mizuki Drama, the drama broadcast with 2 episodes on Friday is called Jin Yao Drama, and the drama broadcast on Saturday and Sunday is called Weekend Drama.

The above broadcast methods, except for the Jin Yao drama, which is broadcast in two episodes, the others are one episode per day.

And each episode is about an hour long, and the length of the episode is controlled around 20 episodes.

In addition, there is also a form of TV drama broadcast in South Korea, which is broadcast every day from Monday to Friday, with each episode of 30 minutes of daily dramas, most of which are mainly indoor sitcoms or emotional dramas.

This kind of daily drama can easily shoot hundreds of episodes, and it is the same as grandma's footwrap, smelly and long.

And the way and type of TV dramas broadcast in South Korea are actually learned RB, and even the name is learned RB.

Do as the locals do.

Since "Lonely and Brilliant Gods and Ghosts" is a drama that wants to enter the Korean market, Wu Yuan must of course arrange the broadcast of this drama in accordance with the Korean TV drama broadcast rules.

"Okay, no problem." Liu Yifei's sweet voice came from the other end of the phone.

"Senior brother, are we going to go to South Korea to do propaganda then?"

"Yes." Wu Yuan sighed.

Originally, he planned to come to the United States, and he would not do anything else if he didn't finish the later stages of "Interstellar" at once.

However, the broadcast and publicity of "Ghost" is very important to the company's next development strategy, and he has to cooperate with the publicity.

"Let's meet in Seoul then!" (End of chapter)
