I just want to copy books quietly

Normally, the final box office of a movie should be 45 times the box office of the first week, but movies like "Wulin" and "Doomsday Crisis" are in place, fans have been waiting for a long time, and a large number of movies flocked to the cinema to watch the movie in the first place , the final box office is 23 times the box office of the first week to be reasonable.

Therefore, most industry insiders predict that the final box office of "Wulin" will exceed 20 billion, but it is unlikely to exceed 25 billion.

Don't take 25 billion for nothing.

This is already scary!

Because the overseas box office of "Wulin" is also quite high, and it won 114 billion yuan in the first week!

If the overseas box office is counted, the final box office of "Wulin" may reach 4050 billion U.S. dollars, and it is likely to rank among the top 5 box office revenues in world film history!

Even the top 3!

The current No. 5 movie at the global box office is precisely that "Doomsday Crisis", with a global box office of 1885 billion U.S. dollars, equivalent to 47 billion U.S. dollars.

And the movie with the third highest box office in the world has a total box office of 3 US dollars, which is equivalent to 2142 billion Chinese dollars.

Immediately afterwards, in the second weekend of its release, "Wulin" won 146 billion and 163 billion box office on Saturday and Sunday respectively.

Although it failed to break the single-day highest box office record again, it continued to maintain the single-day box office champion.

And brought the total domestic box office to 1268 billion yuan.

Then on Monday, July 7, its 18th day in theaters, "Wulin" continued its momentum.

Although this day's single-day box office only got 5800 million, and finally fell below the 6000 million mark, but other movies are not up to the mark!

Therefore, "Wulin" is still thriving, winning the single-day box office champion for 10 consecutive times.

But a powerful enemy is coming soon!

At this time, the promotion of "Lord Admiral" is in full swing.

"It's the last day of the countdown to the release of Lord Admiral!"

Shu Yihuan's movie fans have already started carnival ahead of schedule.

Although "Wulin" is novel enough and earth-shattering enough.

However, Shu Yihuan has already secured his position as the "No.1 director of domestic martial arts films" with several classic works in more than ten years.

Yes, in the promotion of "Master Admiral", it is still emphasized that this is a "martial arts film".

Unlike "Martial Arts", the focus of the promotion is "action movies".

Shu Yihuan said in an interview, "My movie is to express the martial arts in my heart, the chivalry in my heart. A warrior without a chivalrous heart is empty and pale in his heart. A chivalrous heart without martial arts is powerless and fragile. Yes. Only the combination of martial arts and chivalry is the romance in my heart."

The new film is ready to go, and Shu Yihuan is in high spirits.

But neither he nor his fans dared to say that they would break the single-day box office record and the first-week box office record set by "Wulin".

Shu Yihuan said in an interview, "A commercial film, of course, its box office is an important measure, but it can't be measured only by the box office. After all, film is an art, after all, it carries many things."

You didn't say that before.

Of course, Shu Yihuan is a normal person and not crazy.

Therefore, no matter how confident he was, he did not dare to speak wild words at this time.

His previous expectation for "The Admiral" was that the box office would exceed 12 billion on the first day, 4 million in the first week, and the final box office would exceed 16 billion, preferably 20 billion.

So even though he is depressed, he has a lot of beeps. It is absolutely impossible for "Master Admiral" to reach the box office of "Wulin"!

Chapter 716 It wasn't the market that chose him but he led the market

When Shen Jinsong walked into the office, Shu Yihuan turned his back to him, standing where he usually liked to stand, looking into the distance.

"Director Shu!" Shen Jinsong greeted with a smile.

Shu Yihuan turned around with a polite smile on her lips, but her eyes were a bit sullen.

"Boss Shen." He nodded.

Shen Jinsong tried his best to make his voice sound loud and full of energy, "Is Director Shu here to discuss the celebration banquet with me?"

"The movie hasn't been released yet, why not a celebration banquet?" Shu Yihuan's voice seemed a little depressed, "It's director Hemingway, who is said to be opening a show at the Hongyuan Hotel in a few days, with a domestic box office of 15 billion and a global box office. A celebration banquet breaking through 30 billion. Tsk tsk, high spirits, a winner in life. This is only his third movie, can you imagine?"

Shen Jinsong sat in his chair and opened the drawer.

He didn't answer directly, but just said with a smile: "Where is Director Shu going to put the celebration banquet for the admiral's global box office of 30 billion?"

Shu Yihuan said with a blank expression: "If the lineup of Stars and Stripes can't be improved a bit, let alone 30 billion, 20 billion is impossible at the global box office. Mr. Shen, what's going on? You ran away two days ago Let’s take a trip to the Stars and Stripes, what’s the result?”

Shen Jinsong took out two small boxes from the drawer, picked up one and threw it at Shu Yihuan.

Shu Yihuan took a look, frowned and stretched, "Cohiba's limited edition cigars, it's too wasteful for you to put them in the drawer so casually. It's not that you don't have money, so you should set up a constant temperature and humidity cigar. Store it in the cabinet."

"I'm not that particular, and I can't really taste the quality of cigars." Shen Jinsong smiled and took out the special cigar lighter and cigar cutter from the drawer, and began to open the small box in his hand.

"Then why do you buy such an expensive cigar? This one costs more than 6000." Shu Yihuan said.

"Because I have money, I can afford it. There is no difference between a cigar worth 100 yuan and a cigar worth 6000 yuan." Shen Jinsong unskillfully cut off the end of the cigar, took out the lighter and lit it .

After taking two deep breaths, the smoke did not pass through the lungs, and it was quickly spit out.

Smelling the alluring scent of cigars, under Shu Yihuan's speechless eyes, Shen Jinsong said, "I can't do anything about filming for the time being. As you can see, this is obviously Hemingway's operation, deliberately letting Warner Bros. Movies change their schedules and release earlier, fight with us, and steal our film schedule. This has nothing to do with the quality of the film, even if their film quality is a mess, those theaters will give priority to their film schedule, because they are Warner.”

Shu Yihuan walked over from the window in silence, and took the cigar cutter and lighter from Shen Jinsong.

After lighting his cigar, Shu Yihuan retreated to the single sofa in the guest seat, stared in a daze for a while in the light blue smoke slowly dissipating, and then said: "The first day's 7 filming is barely enough. "

Speaking of this, the corner of his mouth twitched, "I have experienced more difficult days before, so what are you afraid of? I am a director of Dahuaguo, and the overseas box office is relatively high. This point, Stars and Stripes should also have a few .”

"It's not just higher," Shen Jinsong smiled and flattered, "It's second. When the admiral is released, he should be able to rise to the first place."

The overseas box office of Shu Yihuan's movies has accumulated more than 27 billion U.S. dollars.

It is currently the director with the second largest overseas box office among the directors of Dahuaguo, and the gap with No.1 is quite small.

"Second?" Not only was Shu Yihuan not happy, but she smiled wryly, "After two years, it would be nice to keep the second place. You forgot that Wulin's overseas box office has exceeded 15 billion, and it has only been released for more than ten days now. He went for the 30 billion overseas box office. Maybe next year, even when Wulin ends its screenings, his overseas box office will surpass mine. The younger generation is awesome!"

Shen Jinsong forced a smile and did not refute.

He knew that what Shu Yihuan said was the truth.

"However, after all, I can be regarded as a director with achievements," Shu Yihuan said as if to cheer herself up, "Although our first day of filming is cut now, as long as the attendance rate is good, there should be more filming for us in the later stage. .”

"It will definitely." Shen Jinsong agreed.

Although in fact he didn't know it.

"How about the movie Three Days to Kill?" Shu Yihuan asked.

"It is said that it is not bad." Shen Jinsong replied cautiously.

"The production cost is 1.6 million US dollars!" Shu Yihuan sighed.

"Three Days to Kill" is one of Warner Bros. Pictures' big productions this year.

It was originally supposed to be released in August, but apparently because of Hemingway's operation, it was brought forward to July 8, to compete with "Lord Admiral".

A skinny camel is bigger than a horse. What's more, Warner Pictures has entered a low ebb period, but their management is not good, but it doesn't mean that their movies will be of poor quality.

At that time, Shen Jinsong wanted to temporarily change the schedule of "The Admiral", but the theaters did not let go. If they adjusted the release time, they would lose a lot of money.

At that time, Shen Jinsong wanted to question the other party: Then why can the "three-day pursuit" adjust the schedule casually?

Fortunately, he retained a bit of reason, and didn't ask such words that others can just find an excuse to dismiss, which will have no effect and will only offend others.

Moreover, Shen Jinsong considered that the initial publicity investment of "Master Admiral" should be able to attract enough people to enter the cinema.

As long as the attendance rate is good and the word-of-mouth is good, the subsequent filming should be improved a bit, and finally accepted that the filming of "Admiral" was cut.

Moreover, although Warner Pictures produced three films to compete with "The Admiral", Shen Jinsong felt that the only real threat was the "Three Days to Kill" with a cost of 1.6 million US dollars.

The other three, one is a low-cost comedy film of Warner Pictures, which will be released on July 7; two are independent films distributed by Warner Pictures. Releases July 26.

This is to encircle and suppress "Lord Admiral"

In addition, there are two other films that can be called large-scale productions of the eight major companies. The schedule was adjusted.

Shen Jinsong suspected that this was also Hemingway's influence.

The Stars and Stripes is a country of capital, and if you have money, you have the right to speak.

With the wealth of Hemingway and Yan Yingzhen, it is too simple to affect the release time of several movies.

There is no need to owe favors, as long as Warner Bros. Pictures gives a certain return in the future, it is enough.

Fortunately, this is only in the Stars and Stripes Movie Market.

In China, Chasing Dream Huyu does not have a completed film that is just waiting to be released.

Hemingway wasn't as influential either.

Well, to be precise, Hemingway has considerable influence, but several companies with strong strength in film and television production are not friendly to Hemingway.

Such as Oasis Film and Television, such as Silver Star Entertainment.

Only Duan's Films has no conflicts with Hemingway, but Duan's Films has no major productions recently.

Therefore, "Admiral" only needs to face legitimate competition from "Wulin" and other film companies in the domestic market, and does not need to face deliberate encirclement and suppression.

This also made Shen Jinsong full of confidence in the "admiral".

With Shu Yihuan's famous brand, the 15 billion domestic box office can always be guaranteed, right?

Then overseas box office, 68 billion should be no problem, right?

Then count the copyrights sold to the European film market, and then count the value created by online on-demand, commemorative DVD releases, movie soundtrack CDs, and other peripheral products.

The expected box office of "Master Admiral" may reach 2123 billion.

Based on the cost of 4 million, the box office profit that the producer can get should be more than 3 million.

The rest of the income is also expected to reach 23 billion.

According to the investment ratio, Shen Jinsong's personal investment should be able to make a profit of about 1 million.

That's pretty good.

After completing this vote, you can consider withdrawing. After all, the current Du Caige is no longer something he can shake, and he can only avoid his edge.

Otherwise, maybe one day I will die without knowing how to die.

After hanging out in the Stars and Stripes for a long time, Shen Jinsong didn't learn anything else, but one thing impressed him deeply: don't go against capital.

This is a bloody lesson.

Chapter 717 Why His Movies Are So Popular

"Tell me, why are Hemingway's films so popular overseas? The overseas box office even exceeds the domestic box office."

Shu Yihuan's voice interrupted Shen Jinsong's reverie.

"It's luck. His luck has always been good." Shen Jinsong laughed.

Shu Yihuan shook her head slowly, "It's not luck. If I always simply use 'luck' to summarize other people's success, then I will stay where I am, and I will never be able to improve. I must find the reason for his success."

Shu Yihuan was very melancholy.

It took him 8 movies to get 27 billion overseas box office.

The "Three Heroes of Jinmen", which he had high hopes for, only earned more than 5 million overseas box office.

Before that, he never dared to imagine that there would be any domestic film whose overseas box office could exceed the domestic box office.

In his perception, even if the overseas box office can only reach half of the domestic box office, it is already super successful, and can be hyped up by the media as "going abroad and winning glory for the country".

And the overseas box office of "Wulin" is higher than the domestic box office, which is simply a fantasy!

Although it is not the first case in the history of Great China, after all, there are some low-budget movies that bloom inside the walls and are fragrant outside the walls.

But it is definitely the only movie with a box office of more than [-] million yuan, the overseas box office exceeds the domestic box office.

Who cares whether you stay where you are or continue to improve... I just want this movie to make money for me.Shen Jinsong didn't say it, but said with a smile: "The English songs and novels he wrote are also very popular, and he has also won awards from the literary circle and Grammy."

Shu Yihuan was thoughtful, "You mean, he understands the culture of the Stars and Stripes, the market of the Stars and Stripes, and the needs of the audience of the Stars and Stripes, right?"

"probably."

Shen Jinsong's tone was perfunctory.

In fact, he had discussed this issue with his friends in the Stars and Stripes.
