I just want to copy books quietly

Duan Xiaochen brushed his hair with his hand, straightened his collar, and then took two steps back to look at him.

"Not bad, very handsome."

Although during this time, she was having trouble with Du Caige.

But of course she will accompany the press conference.

That's why she won't give up the position next to Du Caige to other flirtatious bastards.

Chapter 690 Definitely Profitable

In the past two years, new movie theaters have sprung up in Dahuaguo like mushrooms after rain.

The number of canvases is constantly increasing.

When Du Caige wanted to acquire Starlight Cinemas, the total number of theaters nationwide was more than 100, and the total number of screens was more than 300.

Now, more than a year later, the number of theaters has exceeded 1, and the number of screens has exceeded 3000 yuan, reaching more than [-] yuan.

Many experts predict that next year (2011) the total number of theaters will exceed 4000, and the total number of screens will exceed 2.

As a comparison, in Du Caige's impression, the number of theaters in China on earth exceeded 2014 in 4000, and the total number of screens also exceeded 2 in this year.

For Azure Star, the development is 3 or 4 years ahead.

The nearly doubling of the number of screens has also made Dahuaguo's movie box office rise steadily in the past two years.

In the past, a movie with a domestic box office of hundreds of millions was already a ceiling.

And that year, the domestic box office of Shu Yihuan's "Three Heroes of Jinmen" exceeded one billion.

Now his "admiral", in an interview, said with a smile that he hopes to look forward to a domestic box office of 20 billion.

Du Caige actually thought so too.

Why can't "Wulin" go to Xiao and think about the 20 billion domestic box office?

At present, 99 of the 72 Hongyuan Commercial Plazas in the country have been completed and put into use.

In other words, 72 new dream theaters have been added.

These 72 dream theaters have a total of 484 screens, and the capacity of the theaters is relatively large, with an average of 10 screens in each theater.

These screens are the latest and best playback devices, all of which can play 3D movies, and 113 of them are iax screens, ensuring that each theater has at least one iax screen, and theaters in first- and second-tier cities even have 2-3 iax screens .

The original "Starlight Studios" has now undergone an upgrade.

The number of theaters is still 76, and the total number of screens has increased by 22 to 405 after the renovation; 58 of them are iax screens.

Unknowingly, Zhumeng Huyu has become a company with its own distribution capabilities, 148 theaters, and 889 screens.

Of course, it is still incomparable with the largest theater chain in the country.

Zhounan Cinemas has also expanded in the past two years, and the total number of theaters has exceeded 750. Although many of them are small theaters acquired and have a small number of screens, the total number of screens has exceeded 3500.It occupies almost a quarter of the total number of screens in the country.

However, the theaters of Chasing Dream Interactive Entertainment are already a force that cannot be ignored in the industry, accounting for 6 of the total number of screens in the country.

And we must pay attention to a fact: that is, the equipment of Chasing Dream Theater is relatively new, the design of the theater is also very novel, and the number of people in each theater is relatively large.

In the industry classification, it belongs to "super large" theaters.

It is precisely because of the strong support of this theater chain that Du Caige's "The Romance of the Dragon and Snake: One Personal Martial Arts" was able to get the first day of 36 films in the highly competitive summer file.

In the first three days of the screening, the screening rate of "Wulin" in Chasing Dream Cinema reached 60, which is amazing.

At this moment, it is the time when the major film companies are making efforts, and Hollywood movies are also eyeing.

There are currently 13 films being released across the country, of which they can be called threatening, and there are also 4-5 films.

The results of these films are actually good. "Wulin" got a 35-36 film schedule, which can be said to be a tiger's mouth.

If the word-of-mouth and attendance rate are not good, profit-seeking capital will definitely reduce the film schedule of "Wulin".

And then there are several masterpieces, including Hollywood masterpieces, and Shu Yihuan's "Master Admiral" will be released.

They will also have an impact on the filming of "Wulin".

Unless, the word-of-mouth and attendance of "Wulin" is too strong and strong.

In order to keep the 36 film arrangement, and even go one step further.Can you get what you want?

Among the many powerful enemies, what kind of performance will the "Wulin" have?

Soon, this painstaking work will meet with the audience.

An ugly daughter-in-law must see her in-laws eventually.

Du Caige felt his heart beat 168 times faster than usual.

But on the surface, he was no different than usual.

Even slightly more chatty.

In the face of many media participating in the press conference, Du Caige's brain was running at high speed, seeing through all the traps and traps, and answering in a very personal style.

"Excuse me, Hemingway, according to the Stars and Stripes media reports, Yan Yingzhen, the general manager of Hongyuan Group, is pregnant again. As we all know, President Yan and you once had a daughter. May I ask if the child in her belly is yours?" Finally, a reporter couldn't hold back and asked a question.

Do you want to ask such a sharp question from the beginning?

Du Caige glanced at Duan Xiaochen, she smiled and didn't seem to care.

"This question has nothing to do with Chasing Dream Cinema, and it has nothing to do with tonight's premiere. However, I will make an exception to answer—first, you should ask Mr. Yan's doctor to confirm whether she is really pregnant, and then come Ask me. Thanks, next!"

The next reporter persisted and continued to ask: "Then, Mr. Du, is Mr. Yan really pregnant? Of course we can't ask Mr. Yan's doctor, please give us an answer!"

"When my eyes evolve the function of B-ultrasound, I will be able to answer you. Next!"

Seeing that Du Caige was still unwilling to answer this question directly, the rest of the reporters would not ask questions as long as they didn't deliberately want to disgust Du Caige, so as not to annoy this boss.

Questions began to focus on movies, Hongyuan Commercial Plaza, etc.

For example, "After the current 99 Hongyuan Commercial Plazas are all completed, is there any plan to build more dream theaters?"

"I have discussed this with Mr. Yan. I have ideas but no specific plans. Maybe there will be more Hongyuan Commercial Plazas, or maybe we may buy some theaters from other commercial real estate to join Dream Cinema .”

Another reporter asked: "What are your expectations for the box office of 'One Man's Martial Arts'? Do you think this movie can make a profit?"

This is a very common question.And Du Caige's answer is a bit unusual: "I expect this will not be the highest-grossing work of my directorial career."

There was laughter and applause from the audience, and many people were applauding Du Caige's witty answer.

Even if you don't actually get someone, you will follow the crowd and clap your hands a few times.

Du Caige laughed too.

After a pause, he gave a more precise answer: "I personally think that even if not everyone likes this story, through the trailer, many viewers may know that this movie is an innovative action movie. The shooting method, many viewers may be interested in coming to the cinema to find out."

He smiled and said: "Besides, everyone knows that this movie is a 3D movie, and the best viewing effect can only be achieved with a 3D-iax screen, so the price of movie tickets is very high. In summary, I think 'Wulin' should be able to win If it reaches a good box office result, more than 5 million, it will definitely be no problem."

"I have calculated the cost of this movie for you before. In fact, the total production cost, including shooting and post-production, is 9700 million in total. This can be checked. Then, in terms of publicity, more than 4500 million was spent domestically. .In Stars and Stripes, we also invested 1500 million U.S. dollars in promotional expenses, which is equivalent to about 3800 million U.S. dollars. Then the total cost is 18 billion. In addition, the placement of advertisements has already returned more than 3400 million yuan."

"Everyone knows how to do arithmetic, right? Subtract 18 million from 3400 billion and multiply by 3. As long as the box office is more than 4 million, this movie can pay off."

"So, yeah, I think the film is definitely going to be profitable."

The reporters were very satisfied with this answer.

Then the reporters asked some more about the acquisition of Warner Bros. Pictures.

But not much was asked.

Because of this topic, Juzhi Investment has held a special press conference before.

Can't find anything new.

Du Caige just talked about Yan Yingzhen's "2, 5, 10" plan, but although this is news, it is nothing new.

2 years, 5 major productions, 10 billion investment.

It would be odd for Warner Bros. Pictures not to.

In which of the past few years has Warner Bros. Pictures spent less than $10 billion?

"Hemingway, I heard that a large part of the funds for Juzhi's acquisition of Warner Bros. Pictures was borrowed from GS Co., Ltd. In addition, I noticed that there is also GS Co., Ltd. in the production of this 'Martial Arts', Even Ms. Choi Min-jeong, the president of GS Co., Ltd., played the role of Yan Yuanyi in "Wulin". What is your personal relationship with Ms. Choi Min-jeong?"

Du Caige put away his smile: "Ordinary friends."

Chapter 691 Premiere

"I'm just an ordinary friend? Mr. Du, what you say is really hurtful." Cui Minzhen walked beside Du Caige with a polite fake smile, but her voice was very separated from her expression, full of a kind of resentment between lovers, let Du Caige listen to it I just feel creepy.

Because Duan Xiaochen was beside him, even though she was smiling, Du Caige seemed to be able to see that the anger bar above her head was rising rapidly, and it would be full soon, and she could use her big move.

But the next moment, Cui Minzhen's voice returned to normal. It seemed that he was just acting and joking, "Haha, I expect you to say that we are close and trusting partners. Mr. Duan, Mr. Du and I talked It's a joke, you don't mind."

Duan Xiaochen smiled and said, "What do I care about? What right do I have to care about. I'm just a close partner of his, a colleague."

"Hehe." Cui Minzhen smirked.

"Hehe." Du Caige's cheeks twitched, and he smiled miserably.

He clearly felt that although Duan Xiaochen had bright eyes and bright teeth, and a friendly smile, like a young girl in her teens, she was fresh and beautiful.

But under that smile, there was an aura that made him shudder.

To paraphrase a description often used in fantasy: every cell in his body is screaming: he will die, he will definitely die!

At this moment, the strong desire to survive played a role.

He tactfully added: "Xiao Duan and I are not only partners in business, but also partners in life."

The voice was very soft, so no unrelated people could hear it, but those close to him, including Fang Muchen, all heard it.

Although they didn't interrupt, they all sighed in their hearts: I have never seen Mr. Du with such a strong desire to survive!

Duan Xiaochen nodded slightly.

Although she didn't say anything, the murderous aura on her body has disappeared.

Du Caige wiped his sweat.

Huh survived.

Although I don't know how long the ventilator can last.

But it survived for the time being.

Soon, they came to Chasing Dream Cinema and led media reporters, relatives and friends invited to watch the ceremony, industry professionals, film critics, etc. into the first hall.

Hall No. [-] is the largest and most well-equipped hall in Chasing Dream Cinema. The screen is naturally an IMAX giant screen, and the sound effect is enough to make you feel immersive.

After everyone was seated, a few lucky viewers who got the qualification to watch the premiere through a lottery were also ushered into the venue with the friendly smiles of the staff.

Yang Liqi looked curiously at the group of people standing in front of the big screen, and finally his eyes fell on Hemingway.

This was the closest contact he had with his idol, Hemingway.

Even now, he doubts that he is in a dream.

Isn't this luck too bad?

It was actually drawn from tens of thousands of people.

Shouldn't I sacrifice a chance to win the grand prize of the Mark Six Lottery?

In this event, all IDs who have purchased "Those Years" and "Old Boy" online at the same time can automatically and freely get a chance to draw a lottery, which is a great reward for fans.

There are 7 lucky ones who will receive the redemption code for the tickets for the midnight session on July 9th of "The Romance of the Dragon and Snake: One Personal Martial Arts".

And the ten luckiest lucky ones will be invited to watch the premiere live, and they can also bring a companion.

Of course, it is inconvenient for some people to come here, but it doesn't matter, this spot can be transferred.

For example, the guy sitting next to Yang Liqi is dressed in fashion, wears men's perfume, and brings a girl with a model figure to attend. He is suspected of being a rich second-generation boy.

Yang Liqi had a brief conversation with him just now, and found out that he spent 3 yuan to buy a quota that was transferred by someone else.

This person claimed to be surnamed Zhang and named "Guodong". He was also a diehard fan of Hemingway. He also collaborated with Hemingway in making movies and played roles in Hemingway's movies.

Yang Liqi felt that he looked familiar, but he couldn't remember where he saw it.Perhaps he had a cameo in "Those Years"?

It was too late to talk about it just now, but Yang Liqi would like to have a good chat with this person later.

Ruoping held Yang Liqi's hand tightly, she should be extremely nervous and excited.
