this time.

"Harry Potter" box office sales are steadily increasing every day.

The next day, it was another 300 million box office, and the total box office directly reached 700 million.

On the third day, everyone had to go to work, but the box office was a little less, only about 1.5 million more.

at this time.

Chi Hongxin, the director of the "One Shot to Kill" crew, was already extremely anxious.

His movie's box office hit its peak on the first day.

In the past three days, it has been hovering around 100 million.

After three days, there were only about 500 million, but "Harry Potter" has already reached nearly 1 billion.

In just three days, it already doubled his box office.

As soon as three days passed, it was time for theaters to rearrange their film schedules.

That evening, after the last wave of movie screenings.

The director and several assistant directors were sitting in the studio waiting for news.

After a while, the first call came.

Chi Hongxin quickly answered the phone.

"Hello, Mr. Wang, how much film will we have scheduled next?"

"Thank you, what about Harry Potter?"

"Why is it so high?"

"There's nothing we can do about it. The other party is a joint venture between Cameron and Jiang Yu. The audience's intention to watch this film is very high, and the pre-sales have reached one billion. No one can catch up with their movies this summer. Of course we have to make money, Director Chi, do you have anything else to do? I'll hang up if you don't, I'm very busy here."

"Okay, get busy."

After a while, another call came.

"Hello, Mr. Li, our film schedule, ah, why has it dropped so much?"

"Okay, please..."

The calls came in one after another.

Chi Hongxin's face darkened every time he answered a call.

About half an hour passed.

The call was finally answered.

"Director Chi, what's going on?"

Chi Hongxin sighed: "Star Cinema has reduced our movie screening capacity to 25%. Hengdian Cinemas is higher, at 30%. Other cinemas' movie screening capacity is around 25%. Wanda's At least, it’s 20%”

"It's a little worse than expected, but it feels okay." said an assistant director.

Chi Hongxin shook his head: "Do you know how many films of "Harry Potter" have been scheduled?"

"How many?"

"Basically, they are all above 50%, with Wanda reaching the highest level, reaching 60%."

"What did you say?" The assistant director and other staff were stunned: "Director Chi, did you hear wrongly?"

"The managers told me personally on the phone."

The assistant directors were stunned.

The film scheduling method of theater chains is basically adjusted based on the combination of pre-sale box office and box office in the previous three days.

After all, they also want to make money, and they must arrange more movies that make money.

For example, in the pre-sale, a total of 500 tickets were issued and all were sold out, and in the first three days, all the tickets issued were also sold.

This shows that the audience's desire to watch this film is much greater than other films, and many viewers did not buy tickets.

The time for a movie to be released on the shelves is limited, so of course it is necessary to maximize adjustments and increase the amount of movies scheduled.

And if 500 tickets are issued for a movie and there are still 100 left, these 100 tickets will be a waste of the theater's resources. In fact, 400 tickets are enough.

Then we will definitely have to reduce the number of films arranged.

But what is the concept of more than 50%? For every two movies, one is showing "Harry Potter"

Generally speaking, if a movie can have about 30% of the film schedule, it is already very good, and it is basically certain to exceed one billion.

Above 35%, even if it is extremely good, there is no problem if it exceeds 15 billion or even 20 billion.

The film schedule of "Wolf Warrior 2" is around 40%, but because it is in the New Year period and there are several days of vacation, it easily exceeds billion. Of course, there are also some schools, military units, and public institutions that have reserved the venue to watch it. , otherwise there wouldn’t be so many.

However, "Harry Potter" did not have schools, military units, or public institutions booking the venue to watch.

Putting aside the good relationship between Wanda's Principal Wang and Jiang Yu, other theater chains actually gave such a high number of films.

This is too scary!

This is the number of films that I have obtained by using the quality of my films.

Chi Hongxin felt so uncomfortable.

In fact, they have about 25% of the film schedule, which is already very good.

But the bad thing is, the protagonist of their movie is Xiao Qing.

I got started by riding on Jiang Yu’s traffic.

And the fact that this movie had such a high box office in the beginning was also due to his previous hype with Jiang Yu.

If in the end, the loser is too miserable, for example, if someone else has five billion, they only have one billion, which is a five-fold difference.

There is a high possibility that it will be backfired by traffic.

"Director Chi, what should we do now?" the assistant director asked worriedly.

Although he is an assistant director, he is also an experienced assistant director. Of course he knows this kind of thing.

"Yes, if this trend continues, we..."

"Jiang Yu is still the same Jiang Yu. I really regret why I chose Xiao Qing as the protagonist!"

Chi Hongxin sighed, he had no good solution.

At this time, the assistant director next to him asked tentatively: "How about... we do a few ghost scenes?"

Ghost theater is a special place in the film and television industry. When the cinema has stopped showing movies at midnight, you can pay them to arrange a few shows for you in the evening. It doesn't matter if someone goes to see it. If no one goes to see it, they just spend their money. these events.

Of course, no one can know these things.

And theater chains are naturally happy to make money.

When Chi Hongxin heard about the ghost show, his eyes lit up at first, and then he shook his head: "How many ghost shows can we book? One hundred million? Two hundred million? What does this box office mean compared to Jiang Yu? Woolen cloth?"

Everyone sighed.

indeed.

Even if they can reach 20 billion, add another to million, and in the end, Jiang Yu's box office will be more than billion, which will have no effect at all. If anyone finds out, things will be in trouble again.

Chi Hongxin shook his head.

He is also an old director in the industry. He had no plans to make movies at first, but he couldn't bear the financial backers who gave him too much.

And the script of this movie is really good.

But, I really used the wrong person.

I originally thought that Xiao Qing's traffic would be useful, but who knew that if such an incident happened, I might not even be able to save my reputation, so I could only sigh.

"Let's take one step at a time."

...

Under such a strong film arrangement rate.

"Harry Potter" box office continues to rise.

Even on weekdays, the box office can exceed 200 million.

A week later, the box office had reached 1.7 billion.

And on the weekend, the box office surged again.

It is already overwhelming.

Related hot searches make headlines every day.

Box office has stabilized.

Jiang Yu felt relieved and left the rest to Su Ling.

He and Su Muyu peacefully joined the crew of "I'm Not the God of Medicine".
