Chapter 149 Box office of 5000 million in six days

"Director Jiang Liu, how do you personally feel about the rumors about you?"

Gossip?

Jiang Liu thought for a while. Recently, Zhang Weiping continued to use "Hidden Dragon and Crouching Tiger" to hack him.

Take the "Pirates" animated clip.

Then there is the romantic news about him and the heroines of "Pirates" Qin Lan and Liu Tao.

Jiang Liu didn't look down on these little tricks at all. Zhang Weiping's methods of hyping and smearing were not sufficient and skillful enough to be worthy of attention.

"I'm not as bad as some people describe me to be, but I'm not a saint either. I make mistakes and lie, and it's hard to be sincere to people. I'm just an ordinary person."

Without waiting for the audience to ask again, Jiang Liu raised the microphone again, looked thoughtfully at Sha Yi and Qin Lan on the left and right, and said: "It seems that the term ordinary people is not quite right. Where there are ordinary people, there are noble people and humble people." , suddenly there are class distinctions, which is not in line with the national policy of equality for everyone."

"But this kind of philosophical issue should be left to the philosophy students and leaders to worry about. We are all ordinary people."

"Director Jiang made frequent remarks today, but our creative team still has a lot of schedule, so the interview can only end here. Finally, I once again ask all the viewers to support the movie "Pirates"."

After getting off the stage, Jiang Liu asked curiously: "There is no signature event?"

"Director Jiang, if you don't sign autographs, just spend another 10 minutes signing autographs. "Pirates" will be enough for one show."

"Too."

At this point, the road show promotion of Yongle Cinema ended. Jiang Liu and his group boarded the commercial vehicle of United Cinemas that was ready to go and rushed to the next promotion point without stopping.

After spending a day visiting five movie theaters in Shanghai, they rushed to Nanjing overnight.

United Cinemas is one of the top three major cinemas in China, with franchised theaters all over the Yangtze River Delta, and their promotional schedule is particularly intensive.

But the hard work also paid off hugely.

After Jiang Liu took a short break from promoting in Nanjing, the box office results for Western Christmas Day, December 12, were newly released.

The national box office reached a new high, reaching an unprecedented more than 2500 million.

Among the 2500 million box office, "Heroes", which has been in theaters for ten days, has grossed 1100 million, and "Pirates", which has been in theaters for four days, has grossed 1260 million.

The box office of "Pirates" at Xujiahui Yongle Cinema reached 55 yuan.

It has successively broken the single-day record of 32 yuan held by "Titanic" for many years.

And not long ago, "Hero" set a box office record of 40 yuan in a single cinema in a single day.

The single-day box office of the entire joint theater chain also reached a terrifying 202 million yuan, breaking the single-day box office record of 185 million set by "Hero".

in the capital.

Three days before the release of "Pirates."

The capital's new movie theater chain has reached 540 million yuan.

Another Xingmei Cinema Line has a box office revenue of more than 160 million yuan. Adding the two together, the box office in the capital has exceeded 700 million yuan.

Previously, the box office of "Titanic", the record holder for the highest box office of Chinese movies, was only 430 million yuan in the first three days, and "Hero" took 480 million yuan.

In terms of numbers alone, it goes without saying that "Pirates" is a box office success.

Several managers of theaters in the capital threatened to face the media that they were "more optimistic about the potential of "Pirates"."

Some managers even confidently stated that they would strive to be the number one box office hit for "Pirates" in the country.

"Heroes" and "Pirates" have made strong box office sales one after another, and the box office market is improving.

In the news at 26pm on the 1th, the state media CCTV spent nearly a minute describing this grand occasion in the domestic film market with the title "Domestic Chinese Films - Two Heroes Fighting for Hegemony".

For a time, the Chinese film market ushered in an era of vigorous development.

Chinese-language films, domestic films are heading towards glory, and news of going abroad is happening all over China.

Local print media and emerging online media are frantically chasing a new round of news related to "Pirates" and "Heroes".

Jiang Liu's rather philosophical theory of ordinary people, the inspiration for "Pirates", was widely publicized by the media, further increasing the popularity of "Pirates", and the total box office of the movie jumped to more than 5000 million yuan.

"Pirates" opened its midnight screenings on the 21st, and the total box office by the 26th exceeded 5000 million yuan.

The total box office of "Pirates" exceeded 6 million yuan in 5000 days, although it did not break the record of 5000 million yuan in box office in three days held by "Heroes".

But this box office figure is enough to make many people, including Jiang Liu, laugh from ear to ear.

Last year's "Mobile Phone" stayed in theaters for several months, and the final box office was just over 5000 million. "Pirates" grossed over 5000 million at the box office in just six days.

With such a fast box office accumulation, it can be concluded that the box office of "Pirates" will exceed [-] million, and the film will never lose money.

Even Jiang Liu couldn't help but snicker in private.

Not only does "Pirates" not lose money, it also knocks "Hero" off the altar and sucks the box office of "Hero".

If his memory is correct, the original one-day box office of "Hero" once reached 1700 million yuan, but now it can only hover around 500 to [-] million yuan.

However, the situation between the two heroes is something that the country and the film market are happy to see.

This proves the potential and prosperity of the market, which will attract more funds to enter the film market and accelerate the development of the Chinese film industry.

It's the 27rd.

One of the investors of "Hero", Zhang Weiping, general manager of Capital New Picture Company, was the first to sit still and once again told the media that the total box office of "Hero", including the Hong Kong box office, successfully exceeded 1 million yuan.

"Hero" director Zhang Yimou has also achieved great success in the field of commercial films after winning multiple awards in the field of literary and artistic films.

He is China's first commercial director with a box office of over [-] million.

Zhang Weiping also vowed to announce a set of figures.

"Hero"'s pre-roll advertising revenue reached 2000 million yuan, far exceeding last year's record of 1200 million yuan for "Big Shot".

Including audio-visual copyright auctions, corporate-sponsored premiere events, etc., the total revenue of film products exceeds 5000 million yuan and is expected to reach 6000 million to 8000 million yuan.

Walking to the Sifang Hotel in Guangzhou, Qin Lan looked at the entertainment news and asked Jiang Liu: "Is it true? Has "Hero" already made so much money?"

"Who knows, leave him alone." Jiang Liu shook his head and put down his phone.

They had just arrived in Guangzhou and had a rare night's rest. Instead of worrying about whether Zhang Weiping was bragging, it was better to relax and go to bed early.

"Hey, you guys are better."

After sleeping with Jiang Liu for at least twenty or thirty times, Qin Lan is now no longer shy and has to hold the big teapot even when talking: "My body is full of yang energy, and the bed will be warm after a while."

"Your room doesn't have air conditioning?"

“It’s cold even with air conditioning.”

Jiang Liu stroked his satin-like back and said speechlessly, "It's strange for a Northeasterner like you to be afraid of the cold."

"Then we all sleep on the kang in our hometown. The kang is so warm." Qin Lan retorted.

"That makes sense. Come on, let me warm you up." Jiang Liu held Qin Lan's waist.

Perhaps it was a rare moment of relaxation, or perhaps the box office performance of "Pirates" was too promising, so Qin Lan engaged in a rare vigorous exercise.

Jiang Liu thought that this matter made sense.

"Pirates" adds too much to the actors.

Not to mention Qin Lan, an unknown little actor, he was so excited when he saw that the box office of the movie he starred in was going to exceed [-] million yuan.

Sha Yi, who is extremely famous, was also extremely excited along the way.

Once the box office of "Pirates" exceeds [-] million, it will become an epoch-making movie, and the leading actors like them are not mentioned all the time.

Their huge influence will bring them higher pay and popularity.

"dong dong"

Jiang Liu, who had been squinting to enjoy himself, was curious: "Is there someone knocking on the door?"

"in spite of."

Qin Lan hummed in a thick nasal voice while breathing rapidly.

"You'll be fine later, don't worry."

Jiang Liu was dissatisfied and raised his body half up with his elbows on the bed. He had not yet reached the point where he was so lustful that he fainted.

"If someone calls me when something happens, it must be Liu Tao."

Qin Lan ignored Jiang Liu and pushed him down, and raised his voice to a loud level in an extremely provocative manner.
