I want to make headlines

Chapter 703 First Day
"Forrest Gump turned the movie premiere into the opening ceremony of a film festival." —— Huaxia Entertainment News
"On December [-]st, the premiere of the movie "Love What I Love" caused heated discussions."——Huaxia Film and Television News
"Forrest Gump is back, the premiere is full of stars, it is really No.1 in China." —— Star News Weekly

"The two chairman of China Film Group attended, Chen Daoming, Ge You, Wang Zhongjun and others were present, and Forrest Gump's "Love My Love" attracted the support of colleagues." —— Jingcheng Daily

Compared with the paper media that first released news on the [-]nd, the online response to Forrest Gump’s new play that was released on the [-]st was much faster. Several platforms such as Baidu search volume, WeChat keywords, Weibo hot search list, etc. They all rushed to the forefront.

For a while, it seemed like a national movie.

Of course, the publicity team will not lead the publicity in this way. Although this film has Huayi and Bairihong’s investment and deep participation, the two Hollywood giants, Paramount and Fox, should not be underestimated. Gan's role as the protagonist is popular in China, but abroad, when the giants publicize it, it is still a standard Hollywood-style publicity.

However, although it cannot be said to be a national movie, seeing the current popularity and the ostentation of the premiere, it seems that there is no big problem in calling Forrest Gump a national actor.

Fans of star actors often like to rank and rank, but the existence of Forrest Gump has begun to change this phenomenon.

When encountering this kind of thing, Forrest Gump's fans threw out two ineffective Oscars and Cannes trophies, and the scene immediately quieted down;

There must be awards, and there must be box office. Both hands must be grasped, and both hands must be strong.

Soon, the first-day box office of "Love What I Love" was on the table of investors.

Gan Jing didn't sleep well the night after the premiere, and he had more entertainment than others. This time, all the stars gathered and everyone wanted to chat with Forrest Gump for a few minutes. Let’s go again, otherwise there will be no such thing, so why are so many people who come back and have been forgotten?
That is not in vain!

As the organizer of the premiere, Gan Jing naturally cannot put on a high profile. No matter what kind of praise the outside world gives, in terms of qualifications, he still belongs to the younger generation.

"According to this trend, one billion in the country is no problem, right?" Old Chen looked at the box office data on Forrest Gump's desk, his expression very excited.

"The box office on the first day was 1.4 million. Is this the domestic single-day box office record?" Gan Jing glanced at a group of company executives in the office and said thoughtfully, "One billion is definitely no problem. Not bad, even if the box office drops next week, it should be able to pull up another wave by Christmas."

Yang Lan from the new media department nodded and said, "We've already finished the promotional copy for Christmas, and we'll launch it through various channels to stimulate the market when the market is in decline next week."

How to choose the timing of publicity is a very professional thing.

"The screening ratio of the major theaters is close to 40%, which is already higher than that of the National Day file "Heart Blossoming Road"." Another film team said.

Gan Jing signaled with his eyes that he knew that Huang Bo's movie raked in 12.1 billion a while ago, which is already a benchmark for domestic films, and now "Love What I Love" in China naturally uses it as a comparison.

"Then everyone has worked so hard, try not to lose the chain in all aspects, and when the work is over, we will give out bonuses. I will announce the box office in North America as soon as I receive it in the WeChat work group." Gan Jing clapped his hands , Encourage you high-level people.

When a group of executives dispersed excitedly, only Lao Chen and A-Gump were left in the office.

"Forrest Gump, what do you think will happen to the box office in North America?" Lao Chen didn't ask this question in front of people. He was afraid that getting a bad answer would affect morale. didn't come out.

Gan Jing shook his head, he was not too sure on the eve of the upcoming North American box office, but analyzed: "This time the competition is not only Depp's "Transcendence", but also "Hunger" which was released last month. "Game 3", the series has already accumulated popularity, as long as it is not too bad, the competitiveness is good, not to mention that it has only been released for less than two weeks, it is hard to say whether we can win popularity from it."

"Besides, according to the statistics Andy gave me, the number of movie viewers this year may be slightly less than last year. Until now, there have been no movies in North America this year that have exceeded 4 million dollars."

Lao Chen was a little flustered by this wave of strength analysis. After pondering for a while, he looked at the domestic box office, poured a cup of tea to soothe his throat, and then asked: "If the country can exceed one billion, then it is almost There are more than 1 million U.S. dollars, and if the North American side makes up more than 1 million, and the European side makes up more, it will not lose money, right?"

Gan Jing denied it again: "Do you know how many films were released in North America this year? Nearly 700 films! But the total box office market over there is just over 100 billion US dollars, which is an average of 0.14 million US dollars. If North America does not perform well in the past, they will It's not like you can still give face in China, and wait and see if you can counterattack with word of mouth."

Old Chen panicked even more: "Crap, this doesn't work, that doesn't work either, what the hell are you watching our movies?"

Gan Jing raised his head slightly, his eyebrows slowly frowned, and said lightly: "Although I have been against Depp before, but he does have a skill, and if he doesn't keep it all right, he will turn over. "The Hunger Games 3" is the first effort made by Lionsgate. Three parts. This situation must be faced squarely, besides..."

buzzing.

The phone on the desk vibrated.

Gan Jing, who was originally speaking calmly, had sharp eyesight and quick hands, grabbed the phone, tapped the answer button at a speed that Old Chen couldn't react to, and at the same time tapped the external voice.

Andy's voice came out from the phone. He obviously understood what such an answering speed meant. He didn't say a word of nonsense, and directly reported the data: "The box office on the first day in North America was 6100 million US dollars."

Just this sentence, the words from that man, smoothed A-Gump's frowning brows!

In the next second, Gan Jing's hearty laughter resounded unscrupulously in the office.

"Jie Jie Jie, what did I say! I just said it, it will definitely work!"

"Hey, who else? What's the Hunger Games, what's Depp!"

Gan Jing laughed to himself for a while, then suddenly remembered another matter, and hurriedly asked Andy who was quietly listening to his laughter on the phone: "How is "Transcendental Hacker"?"

"The box office on the first day was US$1115 million." Andy reported the figure without pausing.

"Jie Jie, this old man rushes to the street." Gan Jing laughed heartily again, "Everyone has to get out of the way, the wheels from the Forrest Gump have already run over!"

Old Chen on the side couldn't hide his joy, but he was a little ashamed when he faced A-Gump's completely different appearance from before: "That, that, reserved, reserved, how indifferent just now!"

Gan Jing rolled his eyes at him, what a fart indifferently!
Isn't it natural to laugh when you win?

Jie Jie Jie Jie.
