China Entertainment: I just want to give my child a home

Chapter 94: The box office exceeded million. Brother is a good actor (please subscribe!)

On February 2, "Xiu Chun Knife" was released in theaters nationwide.

Many people are eyeing its first-day box office.

Even Chen Dong himself is no exception.

In the early morning of that night, Chen Dong received a call from Director Han and learned the results of the first day immediately.

1021 million!
  A very unexpected and exciting number.

But if you think about it carefully, it makes sense.

After all, in the past month, the investment in publicity alone was no less than two million.

Even if it is a three-no movie, it will make a lot of splash when it is put into the market.

What's more, the investment in "Xiu Chun Knife" is not low, the director is not bad, and the leading actors are also somewhat famous...

At the same time, the movie has a good reputation online.

Some praised the thoughtfulness of the costumes, some praised the beautiful scenes, some praised the action scenes for being exciting and not dragging out, and some praised the beauty of the heroine played by Ms. Liu...

Apart from the starring role, the most discussed character is Zhou Yiwei's Ding Xiu, especially his phrase "you have to pay more", which made the audience laugh.

Next is Zhang Yan, played by Yang Mi. In the play, she looks disheveled and bullied by Ding Xiu. I really feel pity for her.

In addition, Wei Zhongxian, played by Mr. Jin Shijie, has explosive acting skills and is terrifying to watch.

Eunuch Zhao, played by Nie Yuan, plays cleanly and neatly, which is also a pleasure to watch...

On the second day, the box office revenue was 1190 million.

If it doesn’t drop, it means that the movie’s box office is stable.

Ms. Liu is very happy recently, not only because the performance of her first album exceeded expectations, but also because the movie she starred in as a female protagonist is finally getting better.

It is said that TV series accumulate popularity and movies increase popularity.

It can be said that the popularity accumulated by Liu Yifei from the broadcasts of "The Family", "Dragon" and "Legend of Sword and Fairy" is not inferior to that of the previous A-list celebrities, but compared to them, her popularity is A big difference, she is only a quasi-A-list female star.

Well now, "Xiu Chun Knife" has only been released for two days, and her mother told her that her endorsement fees and other quotations have already started to rise.

I believe that it won’t be long before the coffee status can be promoted to the front line.

In fact, even without the blessing of the heroine of "Xiuchundao", Liu's popularity will experience an unprecedented surge after "The Legend of the Condor Heroes" starring Liu is aired next month.

In one fell swoop, she left the big beauties ahead of her behind, and relying on her terrifying popularity, she was able to steadily elevate her status into the ranks of first-tier actresses.

Originally, Ms. Liu's album was a bit unsold at this time, but because her performance in "Xiu Chun Knife" has been soaring at the box office, and her role as Zhou Miaotong has attracted a large number of fans, her album sales have become sluggish. , once again ushered in a wave of upsurge.

Breaking 300,000 yuan in a single month is no longer a dream.

On February 2, the first-week box office results of "Spring Knife" were released, with a revenue of 23 million. "Fearless" starring the super kung fu emperor Jet Li had a first-week box office of 6800 million, temporarily securing the top spot at the weekly box office this year.

On the same day, "The Savage Secrets", which had already been canceled repeatedly by theaters, chose to be released early, and the final box office was less than 700 million.

It can be said that this box office is really disappointing for director Wang Jing's reputation as the father of commercial films in Hong Kong.

Two days later, "Fearless" was released, with a total box office of 9600 million, almost breaking million.

In fact, if "Xiu Chun Knife" hadn't taken away some of the scheduled films, the box office of this movie would have easily exceeded 100 million.

In the second week, "Xiu Chun Dao" scored 1900 million at the box office.

The total box office came to 8700 million.

Week three...900 million.

The total box office was 9600 million.

Although the daily box office has dropped by 1 million at this time, there is still one week left and there is no doubt that "Xiu Chun Knife" will break 100 million.

This also means that Chen Dong will not break his promise to a small goal he shouted at the premiere. On March 3, Liu Yifei's first album "Philippines" was released for one month, with sales of 5 copies in this month.

I don’t know how many professional singers I envy.

At the same time, it also explored how deep the water in the music industry was, which made many popular stars and actors ready to make a move.

Just like singers also like to cross over to become actors, it is actually the same truth.

The typical example is Jay Chou.

The fan film "Initial D" starring this guy last year had a box office of 6300 million in the mainland alone. I heard it was 3786 million Hong Kong dollars in Hong Kong, and an overseas box office of 2250 million US dollars, making investors a lot of money. .

Therefore, he was attracted by Zhang Weiping of New Picture. Recently, news spread on the Internet that Jay Chou will star in Lao Mouzi's new movie.

Chen Dong's news is more sensitive. It is about the "City of Golden Armor". I heard that the script has been sent to the General Administration for filing.

On March 3, the 13th day after "Xiu Chun Dao" was released, the box office successfully exceeded 28 million.

There are media outlets that don't care about martial arts ethics and shout out, "Director Chen Dong has revived a dead martial arts film."

Isn't this purely flattering to kill him?

These media reporters have no bottom line for the sake of gimmicks.

On March 3, "The Legend of the Condor Heroes" starring Liu Yifei and Huang Xiaoming premiered on Qilu TV.

The next day, the media broke the news that the show's ratings exploded.

Reached an astonishing 6.5%.

Miss Liu's popularity has indeed increased again.

However, on this day, "Xiu Chun Knife" was released exactly one month ago, so it had to be finished.

The total box office stopped at 1.012 million.

A very gorgeous result.

Even if other income such as film advertising and overseas copyrights are not included, this box office data alone is enough to give investors a satisfactory answer.

SIPG and Bona, who had clearly had the opportunity to join the ship, now regret it. The reason for regret is not that they did not get a share of the "Xiu Chun Knife" cake, but that they gave up the opportunity to participate in Chen Dong's follow-up film. Except for Wanda and Guangguang later, as for Tang Ren, they didn't take it too seriously.

The success of "Xiuchundao" not only caused discussions in the industry and online, but also caused the three major associations to hold script seminars one after another.

As their member and the screenwriter and director of "Xiu Chun Dao", Chen Dong was naturally notified to participate.

But where does he have time to listen to a group of old men and women analyzing the script? The key is that he still wrote the script.

At this moment, Chen Dong returned to school. He was not here to attend an interview for freshmen. Although he happened to catch up with the first round of interviews for 06-level art candidates, he was here to fill in the topic of his graduation thesis.

The leaders of the hospital once again urged Chen Dong to study for graduate school and promised him a guarantee, but Chen Dong still refused.

Firstly, he is very lazy, and secondly, graduate school is of limited help to him.

The preparations for the "Inception" project were almost complete. Director Nolan personally called Chen Dong and urged him to hurry over. The next step was to hold a opening ceremony for the film.

Previously, Zhong Lifeng proposed to Chen Dong to sign Zhang Songwen, but Chen Dong had no objection.

However, Zhong Lifang made no further moves during this period, and he thought the other party had forgotten about it.

Today Chen Dong came to the company and happened to meet Zhang Songwen, but he saw a contract in his hand. Isn't it the contract with the company?

"Director Chen, I will be yours from now on, so please take good care of me."

Zhang Songwen obviously has thick eyebrows and big eyes, but at this moment he was smiling so hard that he couldn't even find his eyes open.

Chen Dong twitched the corner of his mouth, stretched out his hand to shake the other person's hand, and did not care about his ambiguous words, but glanced at the contract in his hand and asked, "How long did it take to sign?"

"Hey, ten years."

Chen Dong: It turned out that he was going to work for me for ten years, and he still smiled so happily. I was right, my senior brother is a good actor!
