On the second day of the Huo family's wedding appreciation banquet, the weekly box office of "Seven Days of Love" came out. Pen Fun Pavilion wWw. ｂiquge。 ｉｎfo

In the first week of "Seven Days of Love", the box office score was 2.45 million, ranking fifth in the box office of Xiangjiang's movies in the first week of this year.

It seems that this result seems to be very good, but if you know that the box office of "Seven Days of Love" directly exceeded 850,000 on the first day, and once again broke the single-day box office record of 820,000 Xiangjiang created by "Selling Deed", you know that such a weekly box office result is purely too ordinary.

Half of the reason why the box office on the first day was so hot was because of the good reputation of "Seven Days of Love", and the other half was thanks to the support of the stars of "Wulin Gaiden".

The first-day box office is Tuesday's data, and it stands to reason that even if it will decline in the next few days, if the word of mouth is good, there will be a wave of rebound at the box office on Saturday and Sunday.

can look at the first-week box office of 2.45 million, it is obvious that the results have been declining all the way, and there is no recovery at all.

This is a very general manifestation of word-of-mouth.

On the day the results came out, Golden Harvest Cinemas and other cinemas directly announced that they would reduce the cinema support for "Seven Days of Love", leaving only 15 cinemas in total, almost halved from 25 in the first week.

In stark contrast to "Seven Days of Love", "Drunken Fist", which has been in theaters for two weeks.

The second week of the release of "Drunken Fist" coincided with the first week of "Seven Days of Love".

The box office of "Drunken Fist" in the first week was 2.82 million Hong Kong dollars, and of course it was impossible to break through the first week's results in the second week, but its box office results of 2.46 million in the second week still blinded many people's eyes.

Such a result not only helped "Drunken Fist" beat "Seven Days of Love" and became the champion of the week, but also created the second smallest box office result in the history of Hong Kong - second only to "Seven Days of Love".

But the second week of "Seven Days of Wrong Love" increased the number of theaters screened, and the second week of "Drunken Fist" decreased by 3 theaters!

In this way, the results of "Drunken Fist" are even better than "Seven Days of Wrong Love"!

Without saying anything, Golden Harvest added all the 3 movie theaters that were withdrawn from "Seven Days of Love" to the screening of "Drunken Fist".

Guan Yi was not reserved at this time, in fact, he began to contact film distributors in other cities three days ago, hoping to sell them "Seven Days of Love", and the price was negotiable.

Before the release of "Table to Seven Days", everyone chased Guan Shirt and wanted to buy the distribution rights in other cities, but three days after the release of "Table to Seven Days", these old rivers and lakes saw that "Table to Seven Days" was actually of average quality and did not have much merit, so they were not in a hurry.

If it weren't for the good reputation of "Seven Days of Love" and the cameos of the stars of "Wulin Gaiden", which is popular all over Asia, audiences in Asian countries have high expectations, and they may not be willing to buy "Seven Days of Love".

Even if you want to sell foreign copyrights now, the price is not the original price at all, at most half of the previous price, or even less.

Golden Harvest is even more indifferent to Guan Shan, in fact, at the beginning, Golden Harvest was not very interested in "Seven Days of Love".

Guan Yi asked in a hurry here, and Golden Harvest gave a buyout price of 1.5 million.

Guan Yi immediately slammed the door and left, he felt that this price was an insult to himself - the global box office of "Seven Days of Wrong Love" is more than 60 million Hong Kong dollars, and you Golden Harvest has made a lot of money in it, but the price of the sequel to me now is only 1.5 million, which is too insulting!

But when he synthesized his opinions, he was shocked to find that even the price given by all the foreign publishers added up to only 2.3 million Hong Kong dollars, which is also a hard-earned price, not only can it not be higher, but it will be even lower as the box office of "Table vs. Seven Days of Love" continues to decrease.

So, after the box office of "Seven Days of Love" came out in a week, Guan Yi could only be full of grievances, and signed copyright sales contracts with seven or eight publishers respectively, with a total price of 2.3 million Hong Kong dollars.

Guan Shan's investment in "Seven Days of Love" has reached more than 1 million Hong Kong dollars, which is more than double the initial cost of less than 400,000 yuan.

For this reason, he even asked Zhang Bingqian to borrow money from his family to shoot.

It should be said that during the production, Guan Yi was not a rough fabrication, and he was still willing to spend money on many scenes and content that should be there.

Of course, now according to market estimates, the total box office of "Seven Days of Love" in Hong Kong should be around 4 million.

With the results of 4 million, "Seven Days of Love" will definitely be able to return to its original cost in Xiangjiang, and even make more than one million yuan without a problem, but compared to the input-output ratio of "Seven Days of Love", it is simply too bad.

Guan Shan was very disappointed, thinking that the theater chain was not supportive enough, and everyone's eyes were too picky...... and so on, which led to the failure of "Table to Seven Days".

But he didn't think that if it weren't for his gimmicks like "the sequel to "Seven Days of Love" and "The Starring Role of "Wulin Gaiden", it would probably not even be 1 million in the first week.

The story is old-fashioned, the plot conflict is not new, vulgar sensational, and the acting is hypocritical and blunt...... These shortcomings are not at all the characteristics of a good show.

Guan Yi was very unhappy, but Zhang Bingqian was very happy.

The profit income of the local port of "Table to Seven Days" is about 1.2 million, plus the net profit of 2.3 million in other cities, that is 3.5 million.

Guan Shan agreed to give half to the family, that is, 1.75 million, and then Zhang Bingqian already had about 700,000 in his hand, this time he lent Guan Shan a part of the filming, and the capital would naturally be returned, so there was a total of about 2.5 million.

The Guan family has a small villa and a car, and the rest is some household use, such a large amount of money is enough for the family to live comfortably.

Unlike the Guan family, which has its own joys and sorrows, the new kung fu star Cheng Long is immersed in joy at this time.

As soon as the box office results of the second week of "Drunken Fist" came out, Luo Wei immediately called Cheng Long, telling him to take a break and go back quickly, the company was ready to open a new drama for him, and strive to make him popular again.

If it had been before, Cheng Long would have been grateful to Luo Wei, and without saying a word, he would have said, "I have rested enough, and I can start a new drama soon."

But now, Cheng Long's mind has changed.

The first stems from Luo Wei's miserliness.

In 76, Cheng Long, who came back from Australia, signed a 3-year contract with Luo Wei, and Luo Wei promised Cheng Long at that time that in addition to a fixed salary every month, Cheng Long would be given 3,000 Hong Kong dollars per play.

This kind of salary is definitely very cheap for the stars of Xiangjiang, but for Cheng Long, who has been reduced to working on a construction site in Australia, it is already a very high price.

So Cheng Long readily agreed, and worked very hard to make more than a dozen movies for Luo Wei in about two years.

These movies have made and lost, but Luo Wei still gave Cheng Long a remuneration of 3,000 per film as agreed, and Cheng Long's small life was quite good.

This year, Wu Siyuan borrowed Cheng Long to film, on the condition that Cheng Long help shoot two films, and give Luo Wei 100,000 yuan for one film.

Luo Wei has now lost confidence in Cheng Long, and more than a dozen movies have not become popular, is this guy a dou who can't be helped?

So seeing that he could earn 200,000 yuan for nothing, Luo Wei of course agreed.

As a result, the first part of "Serpentine Trickster" sold 2.7 million, Wu Siyuan earned more than 600,000, and Cheng Long also emerged.

Seeing that he was making too much money, Wu Siyuan directly gave him 50,000 yuan in order to have a good relationship with Cheng Long.

Cheng Long was honest, so he gave the money to Luo Wei first, but Luo Wei only took 3,000 to him as a dividend, which is equivalent to the price of Cheng Long filming one more film.

Cheng Long didn't say anything at the time, but he felt a little uncomfortable in his heart.

As the saying goes, you don't know the high and the low without comparison.

After cooperating with Wu Siyuan in two movies in a row, Cheng Long feels that Wu Siyuan and Yuan Heping give themselves a lot of room to play, and they pay attention to the opinions they give.

But Luo Wei's side is different, basically Luo Wei said what to do, Cheng Long's opinion has no effect at all.

That's it.

But another contradiction lies in the relentless pursuit of Cheng Long by He Guanchang of Golden Harvest.

Who is He Guanchang in the film industry?

That's almost the handle of the tripod!

Except for a few people, there is no one with more seniority and prestige than him.

He not only greeted Cheng Long with warmth, but also pointed out various opinions on many details of Cheng Long's movies, and often invited Cheng Long to dinner and chatted with him about the trend of world movies.

Cheng Long was sent by his parents to study at the Chinese Opera Research Institute in Yu Zhanyuan since he was a child, and was only brought to Australia by his parents when he grew up, and returned to Xiangjiang within a few months.

Suddenly there was such an amiable big man to care for him, and Cheng Long was a little moved.

The most important thing is that He Guanchang looks up to him very much.

Before "Drunken Fist" was released, He Guanchang took a check for 1 million to Cheng Long and asked him to go to Golden Harvest to make a movie, and the termination fee with Luo Wei was completely the responsibility of Golden Harvest, so he didn't have to worry about it.

Although under Chen Zhiqiang's persuasion, Cheng Long returned the check, but compared He Guanchang and Luo Wei, Cheng Long felt that the gap was a bit big.

Anyone who is a person who has the ability to break through the world does not want to follow a stingy boss, which is a great disrespect for their hard work.

The difference between 3,000 and 1 million can be understood by any person.

The second reason for Cheng Long's change of thinking lies in the gap between Golden Harvest and Luo Wei Film Company.

Luo Wei Film Company is a small film company, and like Siyuan Film Company, it is an affiliated company that relies on Golden Harvest to eat.

Golden Harvest is not only much larger than Luo Wei Film Company, but also has its own theater, its own studio, and more professional talents.

No matter from which point of view, Golden Harvest has a future for development than Luo Wei Film Company.

He Guanchang also promised Cheng Long that as long as Cheng Long passed, Golden Harvest would make him at least three movies a year, and there would be no financial cap.

And every movie respects Cheng Long's opinion, he is the leader, Golden Harvest is only responsible for providing funds, personnel and venues, etc., in addition to the fixed salary, he will also be given 10% of the box office of Xiangjiang as a share.

Making movies in such a large-scale and ambitious company will undoubtedly make Cheng Long's dream of surpassing Li Xiaolong further realized.

And then there's another point, it's about Yin Jun.

Cheng Long already knew that "Seven Days of Wrong Love" was written by Yin Jun, and Cheng Long admired this young man who had eaten together, and felt that he was talented and polite, and would not look down on himself, a rough man who had never read a book, and he could be sure that he was capable and promising, which was worth being a friend.

Seeing that Yin Jun has written so many best-selling movies and TV scripts, Cheng Long has not the slightest doubt about Yin Jun's screenwriting ability.

Golden Harvest also told Cheng Long that if he felt necessary, Golden Harvest would ask Yin Jun to write at least one movie for Cheng Long every year at any cost, so that he would not only be famous in Xiangjiang, but also in the world.

This is in line with Cheng Long's dream of surpassing Li Xiaolong.

After "Drunken Fist" became popular at the box office, Cheng Long sometimes dreamed during this time, and he could dream that he filmed a script written by Yin Jun and then became a world superstar.

When he woke up, Cheng Long woke up laughing.

So, with so many factors, Cheng Long is not so enthusiastic about Luo Wei's eagerness to make a movie by himself.

And no matter when the movie is filmed, Cheng Long has already made a decision that for the sake of his future, he will not renew the contract with Luo Wei.

I should have a broader world!

Cheng Long thinks so, and it happens that many people think so too.

When the box office results came out in the second week, Luo Wei called Cheng Long first, and the second person who came to the door was Wu Siyuan.

Wu Siyuan didn't say much, thanked Cheng Long for helping him make two films, and then took out two stacks of big golden bulls from his bag and handed them to Cheng Long.

Cheng Long scratched his head: "Brother Yuan, ...... are you?"

"Aaron, take it! You earned so much money for Brother Yuan, this is what you deserve. Wu Siyuan said with a smile, "It's just that you don't have to be so stupid to give it to Ah Wei, otherwise you can only get 3,000 yuan of hard work when the time comes." ”

Cheng Long was stunned for a moment, and then he was a little embarrassed.

The last time he filmed "Serpentine Trickster", Wu Siyuan gave Cheng Long 50,000 yuan, but after Cheng Long gave it to Luo Wei, Luo Wei only gave him 3,000 yuan.

Cheng Long is not the one who gossips about others behind his back, he smiled, took the money, and didn't say anything more.

After the two finished chatting and Cheng Long left first, Wu Siyuan made a phone call downstairs with a smile and went out.

"Brother Chang, I've already given the money, we can wait and watch the show. ”

"Good work. ”

On the other side of the phone, a voice with suppressed excitement came. (To be continued.) )
