From traffic to movie star

Chapter 248 Box Office King VS Super Dark Horse
A call from Xiangyang from the Guanchi Courtyard quieted down the medal meeting room.

Mao Bin waved his hand to let the employee from the marketing department leave first, and took over the box office and attendance data form brought in by the other party.

Wei Xun picked up the phone, pressed the answer button, and greeted with a smile: "Mr. Xiang, happy new year."

"Happy New Year, Mr. Wei." On the other side of the phone, Xiang Yang said in a gentle tone, "Haven't you slept yet?"

Wei Xun slid over the data sheet in Mao Bin's hand, lowered his head to browse casually, and said, "Isn't this waiting for the box office data of "Detective Chinatown"? If the result doesn't come out, I can't sleep."

Xiang Yang said politely: "Mr. Wei, do you still have to worry? The movies you produce have always been guaranteed at the box office. This time, "Tang Detective" had a box office of 1.9 million on its first day, which directly broke the first-day record of Chinese local movies. Tomorrow's headlines, It must all be "Tang Detective."

The last movie to break the first-day box office record for Chinese local movies was "Once Upon a Time", with a first-day box office of 1.75 million.

But people in the industry know in their hearts how "Once Upon a Time" got its first-day box office of 1.7 million yuan.

It's just brushed up by the investor.

And "Tang Detective" is the real data, but it is not mixed with any water!

The box office on the first day was 1.9 million, strong enough to make any film company despair!

As Xiang Yang said, tomorrow's headlines must belong to "Detective Chinatown"!
"Since Mr. Xiang said that, I feel relieved. When you called just now, I thought Guanchi was going to cut the filming of "Tang Detective"."

Wei Xun looked at the data sheet in his hand and said with a smile: "This year's film competition is too fierce. I watched Times Pictures' "Surprise Along the Way", the box office is only a pitiful 4000 million, and the attendance rate is also the bottom. Nobody's Chinese New Year" swallowed the film, it's really surprising that a small-budget film exploded to such an extent."

Xiang Yang thought for a moment, and said: "Actually, it was expected. The quality of Times Pictures' movie is not bad, it's quite satisfactory, but there are some problems with his family's funds recently. Ticket subsidies are too little, and the publicity is not in place. , so the attendance rate is not high. And Dynasty Entertainment spent tens of millions of ticket subsidies for "Nobody's New Year", so it was able to spend nearly [-] million on the first day of the box office, and the number one attendance rate, maybe "Tang Detective" "Can you also consider it?"

In fact, Xiang Yang called because he wanted to cut the filming of "Tang Detective".

The film schedule for the Spring Festival is too tight. Although "Tang Detective" has the most box office, it also has the most film schedule. If the attendance rate cannot keep up, a small part of the film schedule will still be taken away.

Because it is obvious that the movie "Nobody's New Year" with the highest attendance rate still has a lot of room for improvement.

But before Xiang Yang opened his mouth, Wei Xun stopped him.

So he had no choice but to settle for the next best thing, implying that Wei Xun would pay for "Tang Detective" to increase the attendance rate.

In fact, if "Tang Detective" can make up tickets like "Nobody's New Year", the attendance rate will definitely not be exceeded by the other party by 10%.

However, "Tang Detective" already had a box office of 1.9 million on the first day, so why should the medal be spent to make up for it?
So Wei Xun pretended not to understand Xiang Yang's hint, and exclaimed: "Dynasty Entertainment is indeed a listed company. It's a big deal. It's a small family with medals, and they don't have so much money to squander, so they don't ask how good the attendance rate is. They can keep it." What do you think, Mr. Xiang?"

On the other side of the phone, Xiang Yang was silent.

After a long time, he said in a difficult voice: "Boss Wei is right, I won't bother you to rest in the middle of the night."

Wei Xun hung up the phone with a smile.

"Detective Chinatown"'s 1.9 million box office on the first day, as well as the box office transcripts of films produced by Medal, can be a bargaining chip for Wei Xun to negotiate with the theaters tonight.

His meaning is very clear, 36% of the filming of "Tang Detective" can't be filled, but so what, if you give me the filming, don't even think about swallowing it. movie idea.

"In the first three days, it was impossible to give up the film schedule of "Tang Detective". Tonight, you contact the major theaters overnight and be tougher."

Wei Xun looked at Mao Bin, said with a smile, ""Nobody's New Year" may be a big hit movie, but when we come to our place, no matter how big the movie is, it has to be in the back row."

Compared with the quantity and quality of blockbuster movies, who can compare with Wei Xun in recent years?
Mao Bin settled down and said, "Okay Brother Xun, I'll go and communicate with them right away."

For the film and television side, the theater chain does occupy a dominant position, but it is not absolute.

For example, Wei Xun's achievements in one high-grossing movie after another, no theater dares to ignore him easily.

This is the reason why the big shop bullies the customers, and the big customers bully the shop.

In the end, Wei Xun looked at Dong Zhen and said, "Tomorrow's draft will be released overnight tonight, and it must be the box office champion on the first day."

Dong Zhen smiled and said, "It's ready."

That night, Times Pictures’ “Surprise All the Way” spat out 3% of the films at one time, and several other films were also cut and screened, and a total of 4% was spit out. The 7% of the films were all given to “Nobody’s Chinese New Year” .

As for "Detective Chinatown", the original schedule remains unchanged.

Just after the first day of the Lunar New Year, the audience woke up in the morning, and the Internet was already full of promotions for several Chinese New Year movies, among which "Tang Detective" and a low-budget film "Nobody's New Year" attracted the most attention.

""Tang Detective" had a box office of 1.9 million yuan on the first day, setting a new record for the box office of Chinese local films on the first day. Wei Xun is a well-deserved king of commercial films!"

"The box office of the small-budget movie "Nobody's Chinese New Year" was 8900 million on the first day, and the attendance rate ranked first in the Spring Festival.

"Box office king VS movie dark horse, who will win the peak duel?"

The Internet is amazed at the achievements of "Detective Chinatown". In recent years, almost every one of Wei Xun's films has broken the box office records of Chinese films.

The box office on the first day was 1.9 million, just short of 2 million.

Facts have proved that Wei Xun's record in the field of commercial films is unrivaled!
Under this premise, "Nobody's Chinese New Year" received 21% of the film schedule, and there is a great trend of catching up.

The easiest way for a new director to rise to the top is to kill the established king. Kang Cheng, the director of "Nobody's New Year", was pushed out by Dynasty Entertainment.

"The talent and strength of Wei Xun, a genius of commercial films, is the rise of another powerful director in Huaxia!"

Director Kang Cheng was following Wei Xun to hype, and the leading actor, Meng Guang, still didn't let Wei Xun go.

"Thanks to Wei Xun for letting Meng Guang go and making such a good movie "Nobody's New Year"."

Not only that, because of the failure to tear up the filming of "Detective Chinatown" last night, rumors of Wei Xun maliciously occupying the filming began to spread on the Internet.

When Wei Xun first started his career in the film industry a few years ago, Dynasty Entertainment never maliciously occupied Wei Xun's movies, but now that his own interests were involved, he immediately jumped out and called for grievances.

But if you want to move the filming of "Tang Detective", how can it be so simple?
"Let's release some of the tickets we prepared, and contact the major theaters. "Tang Detective" needs to follow up with the film schedule. It is best to force "Nobody's Chinese New Year" to raise the ticket price."

Wei Xun smiled and said to Dong Zhen: "Also, I seem to owe an interview with Zhou Peng of Gossip Weekly, so let's do it today. They should pay for the blood sucked by "Nobody's New Year" for so long." Pay a price."

　ps: Thanks to the three big guys of 'Gentlemen's Actions', 'Long Ziyu' and 'Wu Qianyu' for their rewards, it's a waste of money.
