Entertainment, I only like to make movies

Chapter 27 Zero Point Box Office
Walking out of the Wanda Cinema, Han Dong went home first.

Fang Ziheng and Chen Yu found a restaurant near their home for supper.

At the dining table, Chen Yu held warm rice wine and said with a smile: "Our distribution department has made a rough deduction for the film, and it is estimated that the box office can reach 8000 million, and 1 million is not impossible."

"1 billion!"

"Brother Yu, in honor of your auspicious words, if it really exceeds 1 million, I will treat you to a big meal."

Fang Ziheng was overjoyed, no matter what China Film's speculation was, at least they had confidence in "The Unknown".

Two days ago, Deng Chao and the others also made a prediction on the box office, thinking that the box office would exceed 6000 million.

He also made box office predictions, but he didn't have the nerve to say so.

In the last life, "The Unknown" was released in 18. Without any publicity, it earned nearly 8 million at the box office relying on its super high reputation.

I remember that when the total box office came out, I was really shocked.

In 18, a movie with a production cost of only 3000 million yuan, no famous director, no big stars, no publicity, achieved a super high box office of nearly 8 million yuan.

This is not a big profit, but a blood profit!
A small-budget film has created a net profit of [-] million yuan for the producer. This is the dream project of many film companies.

In this life, the release time of the movie has been pushed forward by ten years.

To be honest, Fang Ziheng didn't know how much box office he could get in the end.

After all, the film market at the beginning of 09 was very different from that in 18, and he didn't remember how many fast screens there were when "The Unknown" started painting in 18.

Another, the movie ticket price in 18 is incomparable to now, it's so cheap.

Half an hour later, Huang Bo, Bao Qiang, and Deng Chao came to them with excited smiles on their faces.

"Director, I want to eat clam shells!"

As soon as Song Yi entered, she went straight to the ordering area, muttering about eating seafood.

"Eat what you say, and treat me tonight!"

Fang Ziheng rolled his eyes, and said dissatisfiedly, he had never seen such a rude little girl.

"I want to eat, so I treat guests." The little girl retorted in a low voice, ordering a lot of them eloquently.

"Tut tsk tsk tsk"

Deng Chao looked left and right, showing his aunt's wretched laughter, which caused Sun Li to pinch him several times.

After a while, the food and drinks were served, Fang Ziheng toasted everyone and said, "Everyone go back to rest early tonight, and the second round of publicity will start tomorrow."

"Are you with us?" Song Yi looked over and asked expectantly.

"Of course, I'm the director, how could the promotion be without me!"

Fang Ziheng hummed twice, and stuffed the little girl's mouth with a clam shell.

"Everyone is working hard, if the box office is good, I will give you red envelopes!"

"Don't worry, the director, this is what our actors do."

"Haha Ziheng, you said that you want to give out red envelopes, and I'm in good spirits."

After a supper until eleven o'clock in the evening, Fang Ziheng parted ways with the others and returned to his nest near Nortel.

Hengyu arranged a hotel for the protagonists, and just made do for one night.

The following publicity is very important. The first stop is naturally the mainland of the Imperial Capital. First, it will go to the four major districts in the city, and then the third and fourth ring roads and other bustling neighborhoods.

After the promotion of the imperial capital, you have to fly to first-tier cities such as Shanghai, Yangcheng, Shencheng, and Jinmen.

Then you have to go to seven or eight economically strong provinces, and it takes about half a month to go around.

Movie promotion is like this, there is no room for falsehood. When the lead actor arrives in a city, he will go to a few more movie theaters, which can attract many locals to the movie theater, thereby raising the box office a little bit.

After taking a shower, Fang Ziheng came to the bedroom with a cup of hot tea and turned on his laptop.

First click on professional websites such as Douban.com, Mtime.com, Movie Express, etc., and some fast film critics have already posted movie reviews.

Douban movie column, film critic Zhou Hong——"After watching the movie, I have to say that "The Unknown" is an excellent work. The new director Fang Ziheng brought me and the audience a big surprise."

Mtime Movie Channel, Film Critic Wang You——"The best comedy film of the year, beat "If You Are the One" and "On the Journey"!"

After a quick scan, Fang Ziheng knew that the above two cliffs had accepted Andy's red envelope.

Nima, the praise is not on point, so I have to add a few words to analyze the plot!

Refreshing the webpage constantly, more and more movie reviews appeared on the Internet.

The second wave is more professional, analyzing "The Unknown" in detail from the perspectives of plot, narrative, logic, details, structure, shots, and lines.

After the dissection is over, there will be a final summary. Their film critics are optimistic about this movie and strongly recommend it.

After reading many movie reviews in detail, Fang Ziheng called 666 directly!

He really deserves to be a film critic, he speaks clearly and logically, and is more professional than his director's analysis.

After watching for a while, he clicked on Tencent, Sina and other media networks. Before Weibo came out, these two portals plus Netease were more powerful.

Media reporters are not very professional. Anyway, they are astonished as they are, and they take money to do things.

Tencent hangs the most, hanging a red banner on the home page of the entertainment section.

There is a line of block letters clearly written on it.

"Nobody's Name, Best Movie of the New Year!" "

Then there are several poster images of the movie, as well as photos of the crowd at the premiere.

And then it was the reporter's compliment. After a set of procedures, it not only exploded the hot topic, but also ruined the text.

buzzing..
Just as Fang Ziheng was fascinated by watching, the phone suddenly vibrated.

"Hey, what's the matter?"

"What! You are going downstairs to my house right now!"

After hanging up the phone, Fang Ziheng froze for a moment, quickly took off the bath towel, found pajamas and changed into it.

Five minutes later, there was a knock on the door.

Fang Ziheng opened the door, and there were two tightly packed figures standing outside the door.

"Come in, why are you here?"

Two figures entered the door one after the other, took off their hats and scarves, revealing two beautiful faces.

Concubine Lin looked around the room a few times and lamented, "Andy and I are nervous and can't sleep."

"You are nervous, but I am not?"

Andy carried a bag of food, went to the sofa area and sat down, without the slightest awareness of being a guest.

"No...why you can't sleep and come to my house?"

Fang Ziheng gave them water while squinting at the two beauties.

He is just the boss of the company, and he is not responsible for comforting the emotions of the employees.

Concubine Lin took off her coat, showing a slender and uneven figure, walking back and forth in the living room: "You don't understand, this is the first movie I produced."

Well, Sister Lin is getting nervous!
It was the first time to make a movie, sister Lin had a heavy responsibility, and the zero box office was about to be released, she was so excited that she rushed Andy to find Fang Ziheng.

Handing over the teacup, Fang Ziheng patted her on the shoulder in an old-fashioned way, and said with a smile, "Relax, I'm the director. What are you afraid of?"

"It's because you are the director that we are worried!" Andy muttered to himself while lying on the sofa, half-closed his eyes.

Fang Ziheng: "."

Very good, so you are such employees!
I said why are you running here?
Why don't you trust me!
Facing the doubts from the two generals of the company, Fang Ziheng had no choice but to respond positively to restore the prestige of the boss.

"You two are worrying too much. China Film Distribution Department is not as professional as you. They dare to bet. What are we afraid of, Hengyu?"

Pushing Sister Lin's shoulder to let her sit down with peace of mind, Fang Ziheng made a fool of himself: "Do you know what Chen Yu told me?"

"How to say?"

The eyes of the two beauties brightened, and they stared straight at it.

After telling Chen Yu and his publishing department's speculation about "The Unknown", Fang Ziheng raised a finger and waved it in front of them.

"This number!"

"Hiss 1 million!" Concubine Lin exclaimed, her breathing was quite rapid.

"That guy won't be lying to you, anyway, China Film Distribution will definitely make some money."

Andy also sat up straight, pointing out the problem, with a hint of disbelief on his cold expression.

Fang Ziheng smiled angrily, and suddenly found that the two beautiful subordinates were getting more and more resentful.

"Okay, you don't believe me, how about we make a bet?"

"What are you gambling?"

"Just bet."

buzzing.
Just as Fang Ziheng was about to speak, the phone rang again.

"Hush Chen Yu's call."

After making a quiet gesture to the two women, Fang Ziheng connected the phone.

"Hello, Brother Yu."

There was silence on the other side of the phone. Fang Ziheng and Sister Lin, who came over to eavesdrop, looked at each other, and their hearts suddenly tightened.

What the hell!

It won't be a real rush!

Did the two crow mouths in front of me really hit the mark?
Three seconds later, Chen Yu's laughter came from the phone.

"Director Fang, congratulations, as of now, 650 theaters across the country have shown zero box office."

"186 million!"
