Chapter 321 The real business war scene! (Ask for monthly ticket)
This period of time was very busy, and Li Youzhi worked continuously for nearly two months.
After coming out of the cinema, he did not go back to school directly. Instead, he walked around the city center and chose New Year's gifts for several teachers and teachers' wives in the school. He went shopping until dark before returning to the dormitory.
The Chinese New Year is just around the corner, and school has already closed.
Winter vacation is different from summer vacation. For college students, summer vacation is for leisure. But regardless of how you get ganked by your mother, you still have to go home during the Chinese New Year.
Most of the traitors of Heguang Culture have packed their bags and returned to their hometowns one after another with an average salary of more than 20,000 yuan per capita this month.
After returning to the dormitory and changing his clothes, Li Youzhi threw himself on the bed and turned on his mobile phone.
"Brother Zhi, I'm leaving first. When you come back on the tenth day of the Lunar New Year, don't miss us at school!"
"Father, I will bring you beef jerky when I come back during the Chinese New Year! You must take good care of yourself at school and don't let your son worry!"
"..."
Li Youzhi smacked his lips when he saw the voices sent by Liu Meng and Zhou Yuan in the Heguang Culture Nizi subgroup.
A bunch of idiots, does Brother Zhi worry about you?
With this in mind, he pressed the voice button.
"Sons, you are worrying too much... My teachers and wives knew that I had nowhere to go during the New Year, so they asked me to go to their place to celebrate the New Year a week ago. The only thing I am confused about now is whether to have the New Year's Eve dinner at the dean's house or at Let’s eat at the principal’s house. Let’s eat at the dean’s house. It will look like we have no leadership. Let’s eat at the principal’s house, which will make us feel ashamed of our teachers. Oh…it’s so distressing. What do you think I should do?”
brush!
Seeing a large number of middle fingers floating up in the crowd, Li Youzhi chuckled and started shaking his hands.
At this time, the first screening of "Dear" in various regions across the country has been completed, and the comment area with trembling hands is already abuzz.
It's obvious that this movie has a lot of staying power... it's huge!
"After coming out of the screening room, I couldn't help but shed tears when I saw the parents of orphans handing out commemorative ticket stubs. The social significance of this film is simply overwhelming. After watching movies for so many years, it was the first time that I felt that the movie tickets were worth the money. Do you know what it feels like to sell it cheap?!"
"It's so cheap! Damn it, when I was watching the movie, I cried when I saw Brother Hua being forced to jump off the bridge by a liar. I cried when I saw the death certificate that Mr. Han was holding. I cried when I saw the list of missing children at the end of the film. This bastard didn't let me go after I left the cinema. He also arranged for an orphaned parent to put a child-finding advertisement on my ticket stub. My tear ducts became inflamed from crying, and I spent seventy yuan on medicine. That’s a lot! @I advise my little brother Li Youzhi to reimburse me!”
"Same as tear duct inflammation... But what really made me burst into tears was when I walked out of the cinema and saw the orphaned parents pasting advertising stickers on their ticket stubs. I suddenly figured out something; one time when I was in preschool It rained heavily after school, and there was a small puddle next to the school with a lot of tadpoles in it. I played there for a long time. My parents didn’t find me until night, and they beat me up hard when I got home. .
That was the only time my dad ever hit me, so it still leaves a deep impression on me and still holds me in my heart. It wasn’t until I watched the movie today that I understood why they hit me so hard that night. The childhood obsession was completely released the moment I saw those orphaned parents with wrinkles deep into their bones. Woo hoo..."
"Mom, I really can only watch this movie once... my eyes can't hold it the second time!"
Li Youzhi grinned as he looked at the lively chatters in the comment area who still couldn't get over the emotions of the movie.
Look, look... what is a good movie?
This is the kind of movie that can make the audience think and make them feel something, instead of the audience watching the special effects for two hours with popcorn and not remembering anything after leaving the door!
From today on, please call Brother Zhi...an artist!
Crab!
Jingle bell bell bell…
Just as Li Youzhi was secretly feeling inflated, a call suddenly interrupted his fun of scrolling through his cell phone.
Seeing that the call was from Liu Yun, Li Youzhi immediately picked up the call.
Before he could speak, Liu Yun's overjoyed voice penetrated his ears!
"Xiao Zhi, the box office statistics for the first screening are out. Can you guess how much it is?!"
Hearing Liu Yun's voice on the other end of the phone, Li Youzhi smiled and immediately reported a number;
"According to my estimation, the attendance for the first show is basically around 50,000. Based on the average movie ticket of 49, it's more than 2.4 million?"
"..."
Liu Yun on the other side of the phone went silent when he heard the number reported by Li Youzhi after some thought.
What does this feel like?
It's basically like a pussy that's not showing off, and it's like dry stool stuck in the throat,
After a long while, Liu Yun finally smiled bitterly:
"Do you know how to tell fortunes? 2.38 million! The first show in the first round had a box office of 2.38 million and an attendance rate of 80%! Good guy, when the theater chain sent me the data just now, I They all thought they had seen it wrong. For such a film about anti-trafficking, if it can be screened during the Chinese New Year and sell so much, it will definitely be able to make its money back!"
Ha ha,
Listening to Liu Yun's excited voice, Li Youzhi laughed.
In fact, he basically knew the situation of the movie when he came out of the cinema.
Although Brother Zhi has no statistical data, Brother Zhi has a system!
After the movie is screened, the surprise value income is basically about 500,000 viewers.
This little account makes Brother Zhi look like a mirror!
Li Youzhi can roughly understand the reason for Liu Yun's excitement at this time;
This guy has made films and TV series before, and has been a director for more than ten years. This is the first time he has embarked on a serious film project. During the period after the film was completed, this guy's expectation for "Kiss" was not to rush into the street!
What's going on with "Dear"?
Including the current publicity and distribution costs, the current investment of more than 30 million has been completely spent. This is no longer considered a small budget, it can be considered a medium-budget film project.
For such a film, plus Liu Yun's debut as a screen director, there must be pressure.
Now that the box office performance of the first screening is good, I can finally breathe a sigh of relief.
After all, for a director, if his first screen debut can make money, then this road will be available in the future. If this is the first film that hits the streets, basically I will go back to filming TV series in the future...
As we all know, there is a chain of contempt in the film and television industry.
Maybe if your TV series is good, people in the film industry won’t particularly look down on you. But if your TV series is good, but your trial movie fails, the dogs in the film industry will probably laugh twice when they see you.
Although he has always been accustomed to using small things to create tension and excitement, Li Youzhi would be lying if he said he was not happy that "Dear," a movie with a realistic theme and a public welfare nature greater than commercial value, could achieve such screening results.
Sensing Liu Yun's excitement on the other side of the phone, he chuckled.
"Wow, let me first congratulate Director Liu for making his debut film a box office success of over 10 billion!"
"Don't you kid, stop talking nonsense to me. You're still asking for tens of billions. After the Spring Festival, the final box office will be 300 million. I'll do the splits when I go out! What's going on with the director of "Dear" this time? Others don't know, but you don't know. ? Damn, with this script and such a group of actors, a dog can be filmed behind the guide tube. Hahaha..."
After laughing and cursing, Liu Yun immediately stopped his excitement and began to arrange the next thing.
During this period of time, as a film director, Liu Yun has been cooperating with film promotions in various places. But at the same time, he is actually in charge of film production.
Now that the box office results are good at the screenings, the promotion efforts must be increased, and he is really too busy with some things.
"Xiao Zhi, the theater just called me and asked our project team to send a representative to join the Spring Festival film scheduling group. I must be too busy here. I will ask them to pull you in a while. You can keep an eye on the theater. If you have any questions, please contact me."
After explaining a few words to Li Youzhi, Liu Yun hung up the phone.
After a while, a WeChat group invitation appeared on the screen of Li Youzhi's mobile phone.
Seeing the group chat called [2.8 Spring Festival Movie Schedule Announcement Group for National Cinemas] with 28 members, Li Youzhi quickly clicked in.
Just when he was thinking about labeling the group name card as "Dear" Producer, he saw several IDs in the group chat chatting like crazy.
"Minato! The attendance rate at the screening venue is 80%. There really is no lower limit to get the film schedule, right?"
"Where did this nonsense come from? There are really no rules at all. I blindly set the schedule without looking at the subject matter, and then just point out the data without saying anything. This circle is getting more and more chaotic!"
"Theaters, you should keep your eyes peeled. Don't schedule more movies like this just because of these data. I'm not saying this just because our movie is scheduled to be released during the Spring Festival. It's completely true. Think about it for the benefit of your theater chain!"
Um?
Looking at those speeches, Li Youzhi raised his eyebrows.
Minato, people say that the Spring Festival is a Shura festival, but I haven’t felt it before.
Unexpectedly, as soon as Brother Zhi arrived, he stepped into a real business war scene!
Because of Sting!
