Chapter 752: New round of box office wars

Thursday, January 1, 1981.
The first day of the New Year happens to be a holiday, so many people watch movies.
Although the new art city's films are the most anticipated, on this day, other film companies still gritted their teeth and launched their own films, trying to win a good movie box office score during this period.
Because this is the next weekend, these consecutive days are basically not slow, so the people have plenty of time for leisure and entertainment.
In addition, everyone also wants to bode well.
Not only the three major cinema lines, but also other scattered cinema lines and theaters are full of movies today, basically no one is empty.
However, there are so many viewers in Xiangjiang, and they will naturally choose to watch.
Judging from the current survey situation, most people will choose to watch "Best Partner", but many people are looking forward to Jiahe Hongjinbao's Kung Fu movies. In addition, Shao's new director Wang Jing also has a funny movie "Women's Big" Decisive Battle.
To say that Wang Jing is really desperate, he finished shooting "Police. School" in October, and in a blink of an eye he took another film, from the start of production to the completion of production, which is 30 days.
The reason why a movie was filmed for 30 days was because Wang Jing had learned his last movie on the street.
Yin Jun told him, "If you are not serious about the movie, it will reward you with the box office on the street", he remembered this sentence firmly, so after shooting "Police. School", face In response to Shaw's request, he modified the script he had written before and then started shooting.
Hong Jinbao's new film is called "The Thief Zheng Ping", and the model is a bit similar to "Owl and Dumbo". With Hong Jinbao's head, he can't think of a super classic like "Five Fortune Stars". Moreover, the true creator of "Five Fortune Stars" , Or Huang Bingyao.
In addition, Wu Siyuan also had a movie released, called "Midnight Coffee", and he also found 12 theaters to be screened. This is a tiger's mouth extraction. It can organize so many theaters outside the three major theater lines. Fully embodies Wu Siyuan's communicative ability.
But the rest is not important, the most important thing is to watch the quality of the movie.
So as soon as the box office report on January 2 came out, everyone was in an uproar.
The first place, "Best Partner", 1.8 million.
The second place, "The Women's Decisive Battle", 330,000.
Third place, "The Thief Zheng Ping", 270,000.
Fourth place, "Midnight Coffee", 160,000.
the fifth place……
The second to fourth places, together, did not reach the fraction of "Best Partner", which is really unexpected.
Before, even if Yin Jun's movie came out, there has never been such a sweeping result!
Unexpectedly, this time the gap was so great, could it really be that Yin Jun alone could rule the movie world?
Of course, this argument is still a bit biased.
Because Cheng Long ’s film was not available at this time, nor was Xu Guanwen ’s film. The two big stars of Xiangjiang did n’t fight
Best Partner
directly, which was an important reason why
Best Partner
had such a high box office.
However, the data of 1.8 million at the box office in a single day is really amazing!
The last such a high first-day box office, still cost 90 million yuan "Police. School", but "Best Partner" even if Yin Jun ’s sky-high script fee is added, it can cost up to 20 million, so The astonishing rate of gold absorbing, if you don't succeed in two weeks, you have to break the 13 million box office!
As if to confirm everyone's guess, the Friday of the second day of "Best Partner" fell 33% and cut the box office of 1.4 million, but on Saturday, it immediately rose to 1.8 million.
The high box office is one thing, and more importantly, everyone is very interested in the endless high-tech methods in the "Best Partner" and the hilarious and warm clips. There are often people who have a stomachache.
On Sunday, the biggest day of rest, and with the good word of mouth fermentation of the previous few days, "Best Partner" hit the 2 million box office in one breath, becoming the second film in the Xiangjiang local film that broke the 2 million box office in a single day. !
So for the first four days of the first weekend, "Best Partner" directly won the box office of 7 million, both achievements and word of mouth became popular.
The rest of the films were still clamoring for the "best partner" movie, and suddenly became silent.
Except for Wang Jing's "The Women's Decisive Battle", which won 1.9 million in the first four days of the weekend, it was barely qualified, and the rest lost all the pants.
Especially for Siyuan Film Company, they spent a full 4 million yuan in the production cost of "Midnight Coffee". They invited Zheng Yuling and Deng Xirong to star in the box office. According to the results of the box office of 850,000 in the first four days of the first weekend, it is estimated that the total box office of 2 million won Being forced to go offline is a huge loss!
Jiahe was actually uncomfortable. Hong Jinbao fried cold rice again, but his performance was getting worse and worse, much worse than the summer. This made people inside Jiahe question whether this former Kung Fu star had lost his charm. , Began to go downhill?
There are also some comments in the newspaper. Do you think that the Xiangjiang movie is now at the stage of winner-take-all?
Although the Xiangjiang film market has gradually begun to prosper, if it is just one or two powerful, it will be a harm to most filmmakers in Xiangjiang.
After all, most of the filmmakers in Xiangjiang belong to film companies, not broker companies like the United States, which greatly restricts their cooperation in the film.
Unlike several other frowns, Xinyi City, on Monday night, hosted a banquet for Fulinmen Restaurant, the most famous restaurant in Xiangjiang today, and invited a full 20 tables of banquets. !
A lot of reporters went to the scene and watched the stars of Xinyi City to celebrate. It was really a thriving scene.
No wonder they are happy.
After the box office came out in the first week, a lot of cinema operators from overseas had to buy the local release of "Best Partner" at a high price.
Originally Xu Guanjie was famous, plus a super-goddess of Zhao Yazhi, the combination of the two combined with the momentum of "Best Partner" such as breaking the word of mouth and the box office, those cinema liners do not rush to be strange.
The highest Japanese theater provider gives a buy-out price of 10 million Hong Kong dollars. If you want to share at the box office, it is 30% of international practice.
Even the cinema operators in Southeast Asia, which have always been stingy, have given a total price of more than 12 million Hong Kong dollars. Together with Treasure Island and South Korea, the total price has now reached 30 million!
However, Lei Juekun was not in a hurry.
He is very optimistic about "Best Partner" and thinks that the box office in the second week can still perform well. If the box office can be stabilized in the second week, the price can be increased by at least a few million. After all, the quality of a movie, after the second week, you can definitely see it completely.
After waiting for a week, he wasn't able to wait.
Lei Juekun can afford it, but some people can't wait.
He was Wu Siyuan, who suffered a lot of losses.
In the past two years, Wu Siyuan asked Yin Jun to get a movie script. The results are very good. He can earn at least about seven or eight million yuan.
But he was also unwilling to make money only by Yin Jun's script, so he has also made a lot of films in the past two years, and he has made a lot of money, but he has lost a lot in general.
Then this one, which he had high hopes, felt that he could break through the warm and funny love film of Yin Jun's famous work "Goodbye Seven Days Love", but he suffered such a tragic loss that he could not have expected.
A movie has a net loss of more than 3 million yuan. How can the price of Xiangjiang skyrocket now? This money is enough to buy 6 500-square-foot houses!
In other words, if Wu Siyuan took the money to invest in real estate instead of making a movie a few months ago, he would still make more than 20%!
Wu Siyuan's family is not thick, and suddenly lost a loss of more than 3 million, which is a bit hurting. The savings over the past two years basically have little left.
If there is another film like this, Siyuan Film Company will have to close down. ~ Www.EbookFREE.me ~ At this time, who was the first person Wu Siyuan remembered?
Of course, Yin Jun!
As long as Yin Jun is willing to take action, even if the price of his current script has soared to 5 million, at least Wu Siyuan can earn three or four million and restore a lot of energy.
In fact, the reason why Wu Siyuan did not ask Yin Jun to take the script before is because the price that Yin Jun wants is getting higher and higher, and has reached a point where he can't afford it.
For example, Cheng Long ’s movie made in the United States actually cost 10 million Hong Kong dollars!
Also in the "Best Partner" now, Xiangjiang filmmakers all know that Yin Jun wants 5 million, and Xinyi City must buy Yin Jun's script in the next two, and they are not allowed to do it by themselves. Start in the fourth part.
Wu Siyuan was thinking at the time that his Yin Jun's script, a movie only earned seven sub-heads, and he worked hard for a while, but only three or four million were credited. Isn't it too bad?
So, he found several screenwriters himself, and he polished the script well. Originally thinking of investing heavily, he did not expect to invest heavily in Dapu Street.
Now the strong contrast between "Best Partner" and "Midnight Coffee" is to tell Wu Siyuan with facts, you want to get rid of Yin Jun's influence and make big money yourself, which is really whimsical!
Wu Siyuan ’s best path should be to make small-cost movies. After accumulating enough resources, continue to make medium-capital movies. Big-capital movies do not have to be done-even the seven major Hollywood giants. There are several bankruptcies. Where is your small film company in Xiangjiang, where is it eligible to play big production?
But in this impetuous society of Xiangjiang, Wu Siyuan was forced to make a big production, which ushered in a disastrous defeat. ) !!
