Chapter 65 Final Box Office

The box office performance of "Comet" was almost halved in the third week, which poured cold water on the crew who had expected the film to break through [-] million box office this week, and also made everyone's interest depressed a lot.

However, Chen Hao didn't care much about it. He could still accept this result, and he had already achieved his expected goal!

"The current box office is already a big surprise. It was a problem before the movie was released. Now it seems that the box office should exceed [-] million. Everyone should be happy." Chen Hao laughed.

"That's right, I was worried about whether the box office would exceed 100 million!" Dong Xuan laughed.

After all, "Comet" has an investment of only 5, and it is still a sci-fi film. The director and starring actors are all students who are in school or have just graduated.

It is estimated that the first reaction of everyone at the time was to accumulate experience and earn extra money by the way. Who would have thought that the box office would exceed [-] million?

"You still think the box office will exceed one million? I was wondering if this movie will be released?" Hai Qing said bluntly, and then looked at Chen Hao with embarrassment, "Director, I don't mean to look down on you! "

"Okay, stop explaining!" Chen Hao shook his head, "Why don't I like listening to you so much!"

"Hahaha……"

Everyone couldn't help laughing when they heard the words, and their mentality lowered a lot!
"It's nothing, let's go back, but when the film is finished, Berner should hold a celebration banquet for us. There should be a lot of people coming. You are also ready, come and participate!" Chen Hao said.

Everyone naturally nodded and agreed when they heard the words. The celebration banquet was also an exposure for themselves, and the people who will come at that time should be the senior management of many companies. This is also an opportunity to accumulate contacts.

When "Comet" came out at the box office in the third week, the time also passed 2001 and officially entered 2002!

At the end of 2001, Huaxia officially joined the WTO, and the impact on all walks of life across the country really began. The film industry has also begun to show signs, but more are still in the making, waiting for the opportunity to finally explode.

In 2001, the total box office of the film market in mainland China exceeded 9 million yuan, a year-on-year increase of 12.2% compared to last year, and a year-on-year increase of 11.2% in distribution revenue, which can be regarded as bottoming out!
The top box office list in 2001 was "Pearl Harbor" starring Ben Affleck and British Rose Kate Beckinsale, with a box office of 1.04 million, and it was the only movie with a box office of over [-] million.

The runner-up is also a Hollywood film, "Charlie's Angels", starring the big-mouthed beauty Cameron Diaz, with a box office of 7500 million.

The No.3 box office was directly cut in half, temporarily occupied by "The Lost Secret Service" starring Long Ge, with a box office of 4000 million.

It's temporary, because Feng Dapao's "Big Whistleblower" has reached 3300 million at the box office so far, just tying his own "Endless" box office record.

However, judging from the current performance of "Big Name", it is not difficult to increase the box office by another 1000 million!

Chen Hao's "Comet" currently has a cumulative box office of 884 million, temporarily lagging behind Guo Tianwang's "Romantic Cherry Blossom", ranking 7th in the annual Chinese movie box office list and 20th in the annual total box office list.

In 2002, after the first week, that is, the fourth week of the release of "Comet", the film box office was more affected by piracy, and the decline even exceeded 4%.

The single-week box office has fallen below one million, with only 79 box office results, and the total box office of "Comet" has reached 963 million.

The only good news is that the audiovisual copyright of "Comet" was actually sold. Although the transaction price was only 20 yuan, it should be to buy the name of a genuine manufacturer, and it may still be a pirated version when it goes back.

Just like the genuine seller of "Heroes" spent 400 million anti-theft, but ended up selling pirated discs himself, mainly because the genuine version did not sell well, and it was not as profitable as the pirated version.

Instead of letting pirates who spend nothing get all the money, I'd rather get a share of it myself.

Considering that the audio-visual copyright of Guoshi's "Heroes" was sold for 1780 million yuan, and his own "Comet" was not even a fraction, the gap is too big!

But now Chen Hao is more worried about whether the box office of "Comet" will exceed [-] million!
The impact of piracy and the current downturn in the film market have greatly exceeded Chen Hao's expectations.

In the previous life, Chen Hao's movies were known for their strong battery life, but now the box office has dropped so much that Chen Hao is not used to it.

Moreover, the film has been released for 4 weeks, and the next box office will definitely be even less. It may not be profitable to show it in theaters, and I don’t know if it will be directly drawn!

But then Yu Dong called and assured Chen Hao.

"Brother, don't worry, I have already contacted you. "Comet" will continue to be released until the box office exceeds [-] million. Make sure your debut film has a perfect ending." Yu Dong assured.

Chen Hao knew that Yu Dong was selling his own favor, but this was an aboveboard conspiracy, Chen Hao still had to accept it, and Yu Dong had helped him a lot when the two cooperated before, which was not bad.

More importantly, the box office of "Comet" can exceed [-] million, which is of great benefit to Chen Hao.

"Then thank you senior, I was still worried just now." Chen Hao smiled.

"If you don't mind, brother, call me Brother Dong, and we will be brothers from now on." Yu Dong suggested.

"Brother Dong!" Anyway, Yu Dong is old and will be a big boss in the future. Chen Hao is not at a loss for shouting Brother Sheng.

"Hahaha...Okay, brother, you just wait for the good news that "Comet" will break [-] million at the box office!" Yu Dong laughed.

In the fifth week of "Comet"'s release, the movie's box office continued to drop sharply, only 5 was reported, and the cumulative box office was 31 million, which was still less than 994 million.

However, it is only short of the last 6, and it should be successful as long as it is released for another week.

The following week, which was also the last week of "Comet"'s release, made a total of 15 box office revenue, and the total box office finally broke through 1000 million, reaching 1009 million.

At the same time, "Comet" is officially under drawing!
With a total box office of 1009 million, "Comet" was able to squeeze out Guo Tianwang's "Romantic Cherry Blossom", ranking 2001th in the box office list of Chinese movies in 6, and the ranking of the annual total box office list also rose to 15th. bit!
At the same time, the news of the underpainting of "Comet" also attracted media reports.

Sohu Entertainment reported: Student director Chen Hao's first film "Comet" finally sold out with a box office record of over [-] million. There is no doubt that this is an extremely eye-catching box office result.

New Wolf Entertainment: "Comet" proved itself as a dark horse with a box office score of 1009 million, and its director Chen Hao also proved his potential as a commercial director!
Wangyi Entertainment: New Wave Award + Golden Horse Award + 2001 million box office, this debut work is amazing!Chen Hao is definitely the biggest discovery in the Chinese film industry in [-]!
