Chapter 104 The box office on the first day exploded
In the capital, at a movie theater of Star Cinema Line, a reporter took the microphone handed by the host and said:
"Hello Director Jiang Liu, on the night of the premiere of "Mobile Phone" directed by you, some netizens left a message on the "Mobile Phone" column page of Sina.com, summarizing the four major destructive effects of "Mobile Phone" on women."

"The differences are: at the beginning of the film, Yan Shou accidentally left a mobile phone at home, and his wife Yu Wenjuan answered the phone when she heard the ringtone. Who would have thought that Wu Yue would say "Why don't you answer my call?" and Yan Shouyi would pretend to be relaxed and explain It only increased Yu Wenjuan’s suspicion.”

"Most married ladies are restless after watching this episode, because everyone thinks their husband has said something similar."

"Two: Yan Shouyi and Wu Yue came back from a date and frantically deleted text messages and call records."

"Three, Yu Wenjuan called to catch someone raping."

"Four, the TV station is having a meeting. Yan Shouyi imitates the tone of calling a colleague, "What are you doing? It's a meeting. ""ah! "I'm waiting for you", "the signal is not good" and other excuses made the wives and girlfriends in the cinema feel chills."

"In this regard, as the director of this film, how does Director Jiang view the four lethality points summarized by netizens?"

"Also, have the above four things happened to Director Jiang and experienced it, so I wrote the script of "Cell Phone" with empathy."

"Ha ha."

Amid the laughter of the moviegoers, Jiang Liu took the microphone and smiled: "First of all, the chief screenwriter of the script of "Mobile Phone" is the great writer Liu Zhenyun next to me."

Jiang Liu introduced Liu Zhenyun and clarified his behavior, which instantly caused laughter from the audience.

"As for the four major lethal forces, I have to clarify for the majority of male compatriots that most male compatriots are more family-oriented and love their wives and girlfriends. I hope that all female friends will believe in their husbands and boyfriends, and more importantly, their own vision. !”

"Alright, dear fans, friends from the media and reporters, Director Jiang Liu and our creative team will continue to perform road shows to promote the movie. This interactive session ends."

As the host shouted to get off the stage, Jiang Liu raised his hands and said, "I would like to wish you all an early New Year's greetings. Please help us promote "Mobile Phone" more. The creative team and I can't thank you enough."

"what."

After leaving the cinema, Jiang Liu ran all the way to the promotional vehicle, breathing into his frozen hands.

"Yu Dong is here."

"What is he doing here? Where is he?" Jiang Liu looked at He Jing.

"That's not it." He Jing pointed to a broken Santana not far from the road.

"I'll go take a look." After trotting up to Santana, Jiang Liu rubbed his knees and joked: "It's time to be rich, and the broken car is still not replaced."

"Compared with your dedication, I am still in the entrepreneurial stage, so I can save as much as I can." After responding to Jiang Liu, Yu Dong smiled and asked: "The box office in the capital is out, guess how much!"

Jiang Liu combined the information about "Mobile Phone" circulated on the Internet yesterday and said: "It's over 20? You came to me just to announce the good news?"

"What a blessing for 20 yuan."

Yu Dong said with excitement: "The capital alone is 73. China Star Cinema, a subsidiary of Xingmei Cinemas, had a box office of 16 yesterday."

Jiang Liu was stunned: "Oh my god, so tall? I didn't expect it at all."

The total production of "Mobile Phone" is 1500 million. What Jiang Liu thinks is that if the movie box office reaches 3500 million, Yixin will make some money from the box office, and then sell the video rights and TV rights, and the income will be okay.

He really didn't expect that when "Mobile Phone" was first released, the capital alone could achieve such impressive results.

His reputation can't help the movie box office.

But judging from the current situation, "Mobile Phone" may explode at the box office on its first day.

"I came here mainly for two things, both of which I have agreed with Boss Han."

"The first thing is that Guangdong Zhongkai Video will spend 800 million to buy the video copyright. Now it depends on whether you agree or not."

Jiang Liu scratched his head.

When doing business, it's best to shop around. He wanted to ask what price Yahuan Audio and Video, which had been cooperating with Yixin, could offer.

But since Boss Han and Yu Dong both approved of this business, he didn't want to say more.The most real thing is to get the money in hand. The longer the video copyright is sold, the more pirated discs will become rampant on the market.

"You have collected a lot of information in the rear. I listen to you. I agree with this matter. I need to sign to find Xing Aina."

"Then it's settled."

Yu Dong nodded happily and said: "The second thing is that you will finish the promotion in the capital the day after tomorrow and go straight to the Magic City. "Mobile Phone" will hold another premiere in the Magic City to increase publicity."

"Based on the box office in the next few days, there may be a third show in Chengdu and a fourth show in other cities."

Jiang Liu heard an unusual smell.

Boss Han, the head of China Films, and Boss Yu of Poly Bona should be sure that "Mobile Phone" is going to be a hit.

Otherwise, there would be no reason to hold a premiere after the movie is released, create gimmicks, and increase publicity expenses.

"I agree. I'll leave if there's nothing else to do. Keep in touch on the phone."

Yu Dong hurriedly stretched out his hand: "Okay, Mr. Jiang will continue to lead the team to promote, Boss Han and I will prepare a celebration banquet for you in the capital."

"Okay, let's get out." Jiang Liu nodded and got out of the car, then got into the van in front of him.

Back in the van, Jiang Liu informed Ge You and Fan Binbin of the good news sent by Yudong.

Everyone was overjoyed when they heard that "Mobile Phone" had a box office of over 70 yuan in Peiping alone.

Fan Binbin, who was the most excited, was talking incoherently and dancing in the car, a bit like a turned serf singing.

In order to take a step forward, her master Xiao Yanzi stepped out of the category of TV actor and starred in a big movie. He prayed to God and worshiped Buddha. He used many methods to play an extremely ugly role in "Shaolin Soccer".

She easily starred in "Cell Phone", and now it seems that the box office will not be bad, how can she not be overly excited.

After announcing the news, Jiang Liu immediately closed his eyes and took a nap. Roadshow promotion is more tiring than filming a movie, so he has to stay energetic at all times.

One day later, the propaganda in the capital ended, and Jiang Liu and his party flew to the Magic City.

As soon as they left the airport, He Jing received the specific first-day box office figures from Yixin.

"How much?" Jiang Liu turned his body sideways and asked.

"203 million." He Jing looked at Jiang Liu in disbelief.

Ge You: "Oh ho."

Fan Binbin was restless and said, "Sister He, is this number a record-breaking number?"

"Uh." Jiang Liu didn't express any opinion. Instead, he asked, "Which region has the worst box office?"

He Jing ignored Fan Binbin and replied to Jiang Liu: "The box office where we stand has not picked up, and the box office on the first day was less than half of that in the capital."

Jiang Liu stood up and said calmly: "It's normal. I hope the premiere in the Magic City will have some effect."

Different regions have different hobbies and habits of the audience.

Audiences from the north and the south will like martial arts films such as "Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon" at the same time, but they may not like the realistic story film "Cell Phone".

The story of "Mobile" is indeed aimed at a national audience.

However, many factors such as the actor's northern spoken language and the unfamiliar city in the movie will affect the enthusiasm of southern audiences for watching the movie.

If Jiang Liu remembered correctly, none of Feng Dapao's early films achieved high box office in the south.
