Chapter 156: Successful Consumer Word-of-Mouth (First Update!)
On the second day of the first episode of "Millionaire", another statistic happened to come out. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info
That was the first week of Cheng Long's "Drunken Fist".
The first week of "Drunken Fist" was as high as 2.82 million Hong Kong dollars, which did not break the box office records of "Seven Days of Wrong Love" and "Selling Deed", but it was 130,000 more than the 2.69 million of "Ghost Fighting", and it has ranked third this year.
As an up-and-coming star, Cheng Long's second self-directed and self-starred movie can get such results, which is already very good.
The key is that the audience's reputation is very good, and anyone who watches it will recommend it to friends, so Golden Harvest predicts that even if the original number of theater screenings is maintained, the decline should not be higher than 40% in the second week.
It's just that Golden Harvest didn't do this, they did the opposite, and directly increased the number of screening movie theaters by 5, which surprised and delighted Wu Siyuan and Cheng Long.
Because "Drunken Fist" is in the second week of release, the attendance rate will definitely decline, and Golden Harvest can't make a lot of money by doing this, but in turn, it can make "Drunken Fist" sell more and help Cheng Long hit a higher box office record.
But Wu Siyuan quickly came back to his senses.
He remembered what Yin Jun had said to him before, if it was according to what Yin Jun said, Jiahe would simply push up Cheng Long's market value, thus making him more confident and inflated.
Later, when he returned to Luo Wei and helped Luo Wei make a movie, but if he got so little, he would definitely feel that Golden Harvest was more sincere.
At that time, Jiahe raised the price to poach people, which was definitely a sure thing!
Wu Siyuan originally wanted to talk to Cheng Long about Jiahe's plans, but seeing Cheng Long's grateful appearance, he remembered that he had only borrowed Cheng Long for a year, in fact, no matter where Cheng Long went, it was impossible to cooperate with him anymore, so he endured it.
Anyway, it was not him who lost in the end, but Luo Wei, a miser.
The extra money I made on "Drunken Fist" is the reward for cultivating and building Cheng Long!
Golden Harvest announced that it would release "Drunken Fist" in five more cinemas, which caused dissatisfaction with Guan Shan.
Of course, the canvas added to "Drunken Fist" announced by Golden Harvest does not occupy the share of its own cinema chain of 15 cinemas, but they joined in the friendly cinemas outside, which has no impact on the upcoming "Seven Days of Love" today, and "Seven Days of Love" is still a total of 25 theaters.
At the premiere, Yin Jun did not appear outside and was not interviewed by reporters.
This was not Yin Jun's shirk, but Guan Zhilin knew that Brother Jun didn't like to socialize, so she helped him push it off in advance, which made Zhang Bingqian a little unhappy.
But Yin Jun didn't know that he entered the cinema early and chatted with the bigwigs in the film industry who came to cheer.
Knowing that Yin Jun was coming, even Zou Wenhuai came over in person, chatted with Yin Jun for a few words before leaving, Cai Yongchang simply took Yin Jun everywhere to meet people in the film industry.
Although Yin Jun is a little shy and will not take the initiative to meet others, but this is the premiere scene of "Seven Days of Love", Yin Jun naturally wants to give face to Guan Shirt and help greet others - this is actually not a premiere, it is just that people come to cheer for face, and everyone sits together and chats.
Yin Jun wrote "Seven Days of Wrong Love" for Guan Shan, which has been spread from Jiahe, and in recent days, everyone in the film industry has known it, although everyone has only heard about it, but this does not prevent everyone from recognizing this rumor.
Except for Yin Jun, there should not be such an excellent screenwriter who wrote such a good script for Guan Shan, a person who is about to hit the street.
Because of this matter, Cai Yongchang called Yin Jun to apologize, saying that it was leaked by someone in the company who was accidentally drunk, the problem is that this leak was leaked when "Ghost Fights Ghost" had been released, and it was not counting the rumors they put out for hype, even if Yin Jun was a little unhappy, but he didn't say anything.
Yin Jun didn't say that he was like a turtle, unwilling to show the water.
It's just that he's worried that this will make Guan Yi lose face.
Others are already saying that Guan Shirt relied on Yin Jun's book to make "Seven Days of Wrongness" a blockbuster, which is a big disparagement or insult for Guan Shan, a once brilliant actor, so when Yin Jun saw Guan Shirt on weekdays, he never mentioned this matter, and even "Table to Seven Days of Love" didn't have any opinions, pretending not to know.
Now that almost everyone else knows, Guan Shan is even more uncomfortable when he thinks about it.
If "Seven Days of Love" is a box office hit, Guan Shirt will definitely not care.
But what if "Seven Days of Love" doesn't do well at the box office?
Most of the people will be even more embarrassed and angry.
Yin Jun didn't want Guan Shirt to be the result in the end, but according to his understanding of Guan Shirt and listening to some of the details of the movie Guan Zhilin told him, he already felt in his heart that Guan Shirt was probably going to finish his old book this time.
Yin Jun naturally couldn't do anything for Guan Shan, Guan Yi was forty or fifty years old, and he wanted a 16-year-old young man to save him, and he really had no face to see people.
But Yin Jun couldn't do nothing.
Not for the sake of Guan Yi taking him in for a month, but also for Guan Zhilin's sake.
This delicate girl who has tied her whole body to herself, Yin Jun will never let her face an unfortunate situation.
Fortunately, this time there is still an old book to eat, although it is very likely that there will be no next time after eating this time, but at least 2 million, 3 million profits can be guaranteed.
If Guan Yi listened to Yin Jun's advice and asked Guan Zhilin to convey it, if he sold the copyright in other cities before the movie was released earlier, he would at least be able to earn one or two million more.
However, Guan Shan's self-confidence is very strong, and he feels that "Seven Days of Love" will at least not be much worse than "Seven Days of Love", so he is ready to wait for the first week of high box office to come out before talking about foreign copyrights.
Zhang Bingqian and Guan Zhilin are both women who don't understand business, to be precise, women with average IQ, so they don't think there's anything wrong with Guan Shan doing this, and the pursuit of profit maximization is the best.
Guan Zhilin later changed her position because Yin Jun said it, and resolutely did what Brother Jun said, so she objected.
Excluding those speculative film companies that went out of business after making a movie, there are only a few dozen film companies in Xiangjiang now, far less crazy than the hundreds in the 90s.
There are five or six people from film companies who came to the scene today, and there are also managers of more than a dozen theaters, Cai Yongchang picked an important one to introduce to Yin Jun, and they saw that there was Jiahe by Yin Jun's side, so they would naturally be more disciplined, and they would not directly run up and ask Yin Jun to give the script or something.
Guan Zhilin finished dealing with reporters outside, rushed in and held Yin Jun's hand, smiled sweetly and talked to others with him, and didn't even care about his parents who were chatting with others on the side, which really made Zhang Bingqian angry, thinking that this girl hadn't married before, and she was going to get married in the future, so she had to forget her parents and younger brother?
But on the other hand, Zhang Bingqian is very proud.
Daughter's vision and luck are much better than herself, before Yin Jun became famous, he discovered him and became his closest little girlfriend, according to Yin Jun's kind and nostalgic character, her daughter definitely doesn't have to worry about it in this life.
Even if there is any embarrassment in the future of the Guan family, with a daughter here, it will definitely not be bitter.
Half an hour of socializing passed quickly, and when it was 7 o'clock in the evening, everyone sat down in the cinema seats on time and watched the movie.
Even if he thought it would be more unsightly, Yin Jun still watched it very seriously, he treated every TV series and movie, whether it was a bad movie or a good movie, he would watch it seriously, and he never gave up halfway.
"Table to Seven Days" tells the story of "Seven Days of Love" two years later.
Yang Naidong's husband disappeared again because he did not repay the loan, and the house was also confiscated by the court.
Yang Naidong was desperate and went to Hong Kong Island to join Li Du.
But Li Du now has a girlfriend Zhang Yuchun, and Zhang Yuchun naturally can't accommodate Yang Naidong, and targets Yang Naidong everywhere.
Fortunately, the neighbor's little sister Azhi helped Yang Naidong, and finally in a series of misunderstandings and misunderstandings, Yang Naidong was finally with Li Du, with a perfect ending.
After watching the movie, the lights turned off and flashed everywhere, and the audience left one after another.
Judging from their reactions, "Seven Days of Love" is not bad, some of the jokes in it, the cameos of Guan Zhilin and other stars of "Wulin Gaiden", and the perfect finale, have made many people discuss.
Many movie theater owners and industry insiders also warmly congratulated Guan Shan and congratulated him on making another good film.
Guan Zhilin was extremely proud.
Looking at the smiling girl on Jiaojing's face, Yin Jun also laughed, hiding the idea that he was becoming more and more unoptimistic in his heart.
Why is "Seven Days of Wrong Love" so successful?
On the one hand, it is its joke, on the other hand, it is the cohabitation life of a pair of lonely men and widows, and finally there is the faint regret of "not staying in love" at the pier.
Zhang Tingjian's sequel "Goodbye Seven Days of Love", not only does not continue such advantages, but instead excavates deeper literary and spiritual connotations, such an effect will naturally not be good, and it is normal not to get a high box office.
However, Guan Shan's sequel "Seven Days of Love" went to the other extreme, making a city farce, the characters are not fully expressed, there are too many characters and it is unnecessary, many scenes and plots are hurried, Guan Zhilin's performance in it has no aura at all, and Wen Bixia who hurried by is like a little fool, and she is not brilliant.
And then the final comedy ending, of course, satisfies some people's appeals, but just like the novel routine of "tragedy is eternal", such a happy ending is not necessary for a comedy movie like "Seven Days of Love", which is more literary and artistic, at least there is no regret that there is no way to stay together.
According to Yin Jun's experience and understanding of the Xiangjiang film industry in the past few months, Guan Shan's first-week box office should be more than 2 million, and whether it can reach 3 million depends on word-of-mouth and the audience's preference.
But that's about it.
If there is no big surprise, half of the diving in the second week is certain, and the final finish can reach 4 million, which is already a surprise.
Coupled with the income of two or three million in other cities, Guan Shirt can be regarded as a success in consuming "Seven Days of Wrong Feelings".
I just don't know, will Guan Shirt be satisfied, will he feel that he can make persistent efforts and shoot the third part again?
If that's the case, it will be a disaster for Guan Shan, and Yin Jun doesn't know how to persuade Guan Yi to give up at that time.
Or can you just helplessly watch him go to the point of no return to failure? )
