Chapter 386 Box Office!box office!
"How's the box office?"

On July 13th, in the building of the Film Association, the statisticians were counting the box office uploaded by various theaters across the country. The president of the association came to this office in person and asked.

Every morning, the box office of the previous day will be counted and released. There is no exception. This is also one of the things that the Film Association is responsible for after its establishment.

It's just that in the past, these statisticians did it themselves, and the people below were responsible for publishing it. The president of the association never asked.But today is different, because among the box office releases today, there are two that he is very concerned about, one is "Hong Kong Island" by Wu Baige, and the other is "Infernal Affairs" by Chen Ze.

After the box office of these two movies went through some time ago, he knew that countless netizens must also be paying attention to the box office this time, so he had to ask in person to see how the box office of these two movies was.

"President, the first-day box office of "Hong Kong Island" is 300 million."

The statistician knew that the chairman actually came to see the box office of the two films "The Storm of Hong Kong Island" and "Infernal Affairs", so they directly reported the box office of these two movies to him.

"So much? Not bad, not bad, haha, not bad." The president was stunned, and then laughed.Last year, the highest first-day box office of the summer file was only 8000 million. Although "Hong Kong Island" did not break the record this year, it was already the highest in this year's summer file.

At the beginning, he was worried that if "The Storm of Hong Kong" hits the market as he expected, he would not be able to explain it to the outside world. Now that he heard so many box office results, the president let out a sigh of relief, feeling that he had Sure enough, I thought too much.

"Then "Infernal Affairs"?" the president asked, very relaxed at the moment.

"The box office of "Infernal Affairs" is 820 million." The statistician said.

Hearing this number, the smile on the chairman's face stopped abruptly: "What? How much?"

The chairman couldn't believe his ears. Chen Ze's "Infernal Affairs" only arranged for him 5.00% of the filming. How could it have a box office of more than 3000 million.Besides, the number of films in "Hong Kong Island" is more than ten times that of his. Even if the box office ratio of the two is the same, Chen Ze's "Infernal Affairs" should be more than 1000 million at most. This, this is more than 800 million. how come?

"More than 800 million presidents." The statistician continued, "This year's summer season has increased by more than 30.00% compared to last year. Yesterday's total box office was 520 million."

Hearing what the statisticians said, the chairman finally realized that this year's box office is so good, it has increased by 30.00% compared to last year, so compared with last year's 7000 million, the gold content of "Hong Kong Island" has dropped a lot not enough.

Moreover, the schedule for Wu Baige's new movie is about 50.00%, but the box office accounted for less than 50.00%. The box office accounted for a movie's premiere did not exceed the schedule, so it can only explain one thing, this movie In fact, it is not popular, and the reason why the box office seems to be okay is only because of the queues.

"However, even so, the box office of Chen Ze's new movie is too high. You are not mistaken in the statistics, aren't we planning to arrange only 5.00% of the movie for him?" said the chairman of the film association, he still didn't dare Believe in the box office of Chen Ze's movies.

With a 5.00% schedule, it actually accounted for more than [-]% of the box office ratio. This, this is simply against the sky. It is almost impossible for Huaxia to produce such a movie.

"We have investigated the chairman. In fact, judging from the situation reported by the major theaters, "Infernal Affairs" is more popular than the data can show. Almost every theater said that 5.00% of the film schedule is not enough. Fans Almost all of them went to see "Infernal Affairs", and many theaters also raised their film schedule a little on their own."

"And according to their reactions, although the box office of "The Storm of Hong Kong" is not bad, but the word of mouth is very poor. Reduce the film schedule of "Hong Kong Island" and increase the film schedule of "Infernal Affairs."

The statisticians spoke and reported all the information and data they collected from the theater to the president.

What they said was long and a bit complicated.But all in all, it means the same thing. The finalization of "The Storm of Hong Kong" is far from as good as it seems. The theaters are all asking to reduce the film schedule of "The Storm of Hong Kong" and give up the film schedule to "Infernal Affairs".

"Well, let's wait a little longer, watch it for another two days, watch it for another two days, if it still doesn't work after two days, cut down the schedule of "Hong Kong Island" and give it to "Infernal Affairs."

The chairman said, in fact, he has realized that everything is as he thought, and Wu Baige's new movie is really not good.But whether it was out of consideration for Wu Baige's face or the relationship with Wu Baige, it was impossible to cut his film schedule the next day, so the chairman decided to wait.

"Okay President, will the box office of each family be distributed to each family yesterday?" the statistician asked.

"Let's send it to them according to the procedure, and then announce the result on our official Weibo." The president said.

******
In Wu Baige's office, there are several people in the room at the moment, all of them are the assistant directors of the crew of "Hong Kong Island". They all have smiles on their faces, as if something particularly good happened.

"Haha, Director Wu, congratulations. The box office on the first day was 7000 million, setting a new high for this year's summer season. It seems that our movie has guaranteed a minimum of 20 billion." An assistant director said.

They all just got the data from the Film Association and knew the box office of the film, so they hurried to Wu Baige's office to congratulate him.

Because each company only got the box office data of their own movies and did not know about other movies, so these assistant directors didn’t know that their movies were actually not that good. words come.

Hearing what they said, Wu Baige also showed a smile on his face. Since he hit the market for several movies in a row, he has become more and more cautious about the box office. Now he heard that the box office on the first day was 7000 million. The total box office It may reach 20 billion, which makes him very happy.

"It's not bad, but we have to make persistent efforts." Wu Baige nodded, "By the way, let the Weibo of our movie spread the news, and say that our movie has set a new record for this year's summer premiere, and the total box office is even higher. 20."

20 billion. At present, only a few films in China have reached it. Wu Baige’s previous highest-grossing film was actually less than 20 million. He would never have dared to call it that way before, but now he hears the box office on the first day. From then on, he felt a little bit ecstatic, thinking that [-] billion was already a sure thing.

"Okay." An assistant director nodded, "By the way, how much box office do you think Chen Ze's new movie will have? Will he regret quitting when he hears our box office?"

"Hahaha, his movie is only 5.00% of the schedule, how high the box office can be, it is estimated to be several million at most, and he looks like a street, he is not qualified to be compared with our movie." An assistant director said.

"Yes, he still quit our film crew. I really don't know what to do. Our movie is worth 20 billion. It's already a face to him to cast him. He actually quit. I want to see if he knows our movie premiere this time." Daily box office, will the intestines of regret be green."

Another assistant director said that what he said seemed like 20 billion is really a sure thing.

"Haha, then @ him, let him see our box office on the first day. I'm just worried that if he finds out, he will be so angry that he won't be able to eat."

"Yes, just @ him, and 'congratulate' his box office by the way, haha, let's see how he steps down this time."

Several assistant directors said that they didn't even know how much box office Chen Ze's new movie had earned, but in their view, it was nothing more than a few million. Cannon fodder movies are not qualified to compare with themselves.

Because, all of them didn't pay attention to Chen Ze at all, and started to tease, the whole office was filled with laughter.
