Entertainment, I only like to make movies

Chapter 257 Eighty million in nine days, crazy killing!

682 million dollars!

This is a very exciting number!

Liu Qianqian and Fang Rou high-fived each other and shouted 'YES', as happy as a child who picked up a lollipop.

Fang Ziheng also breathed a sigh of relief, and while gesturing to Fang Zhongxin to drive, he said, "Andy, have the data of the movies released in the North American market at the same time been transferred? What does Deng Wendi say?"

"Turn it over, I'll send it to you right away."

"Deng Wendi is actively expanding the publicity and distribution, and it is expected to win 1800 theaters and 3500 screens for "Looking for the Dragon" tomorrow."

Andy quickly regained his composure, and relayed the contents of Deng Wendi's overseas calls one by one.

"3500 yuan, it seems that Ms. Deng really worked hard this time!"

Fang Ziheng smiled, very satisfied with Deng Wendi's attitude towards "Looking for the Dragon".

I remember that last year "Edge of Tomorrow" opened in 1900 theaters, and it was logged in 3800 fast screens at the same time. The box office on the first day was 370 million US dollars!

"Looking for the Dragon" achieved a score of 2600 million with 5500 theaters and 682 screens. Comparing the two, it is even higher than "Edge of Tomorrow" in terms of attendance.

At present, the total number of screens in the North American film market is about 30000, and "Looking for the Dragon" can be screened on 9000 screens at the same time, which is the limit that [-]th Century Fox Film Company can achieve.

No matter how much it is, it is beyond the scope of Fox's ability. The North American market also has cultural restrictions and protection laws.

Soon, Andy sent over the data of movies released simultaneously in the North American market.

北美电影市场，12月25日至2012年1月1日。

No.1 "Mission: Impossible 4", defended the box office champion in the second week with 2542 million US dollars, with a total box office of 1.124 million US dollars.

No.2 "Sherlock Holmes 2", with 2088 million U.S. dollars, won the second consecutive box office runner-up for the second week, with a total box office of 1.109 million U.S. dollars.

No.3 "Mouse Laibao 3", with a weekly box office of 1637 million US dollars and a total of 9073 million US dollars.

No.4 "The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo", with a weekly box office of US$1482 and a total box office of US$5558 million.

No.5 "War Horse", with a weekly box office of 1442 million US dollars and a total box office of 4045 million US dollars.

No.6 "My Family Bought a Zoo", with a weekly box office of US$1324 million and a total box office of US$4073 million.

No.7 "The Adventures of Tintin", with a weekly box office of 1144 million and a total box office of 4048 million US dollars.

There are still three remaining films with a weekly box office of less than [-] million yuan, so there is nothing to fear.

"Looking for the Dragon" has only been released for one day, and the 682 million US dollars can't make it to the list. It will have to wait until next week to show its edge!
Next, Fang Ziheng took the main creator of the film and ran to four movie theaters in one go, and was interviewed by the Imperial Capital News in the evening.

At ten o'clock, fly to Shanghai, and then hurry up to sleep.

On the second day, I still go to the cinema first, then accept interviews from the local media, and take photos and interact with fans.

After a day of travel, the body is weak, so don't be tired.

Imperial Capital, Magic City, Hangzhou City, South View, Sioux City, Shacheng, Yuzhang, Yangcheng, Shencheng, Yudu, Sichuan City, from north to southeast, from southeast to Lingnan, and from Lingnan to southwest.

A total of 15 cities were arranged on the publicity list, and the whole group was exhausted and kept their feet on the ground.

1 month 5 number.

The main creator of the film "Looking for the Dragon" came to Yuzhang, Wanda International Cinema near Bayi Square.

As Fang Ziheng's hometown, it was naturally warmly welcomed by local movie fans.

Liu Qianqian, Liu Ye and others also worked hard to promote, enjoying the cheers under the spotlight while showing their professionalism.

Everyone was tired, but they were really happy in their hearts. The smiles on their faces froze and they didn't forget to wave and interact with the fans.

No way, the movie is too hot!

In the past four days, "Looking for the Dragon" has continued to be popular, and the single-day box office on the 1st and 2nd holidays once again exceeded [-] million.

No. 3 and No. 4 saw slight declines, taking 9300 million and 8800 million single-day box office respectively.

Five days after its release, "Looking for the Dragon" swept everything, with a total box office exceeding 5 million yuan!

[-] million in five days!

Irresistible, unsurpassable box office myth!

Such an unfathomable achievement made countless colleagues in the industry collectively lose their voices, and completely stunned the media reporters chasing interviews.

The high popularity has set off a carnival among movie fans on New Year's Day, and theaters continue to increase the number of movies scheduled. The national average schedule was as high as 80%.

Dominate the screen!

On the occasion of the New Year's Day in 2012, "Looking for the Dragon" achieved the dominance of the national theaters and entertainment Internet for the first time.

There are voices reporting and praising the film everywhere.

At the same time, the box office of the fountain has also created a strong movie reputation.

The rise of Weibo provides the audience with an unimpeded chatting platform after watching the movie.

Countless viewers took out their mobile phones to surf the Internet immediately after watching the movie, and posted their impressions to the "Looking for the Dragon" Weibo account.

Or gather under the Weibo of Fang Ziheng, Liu Qianqian, Liu Ye, Huang Bo, Liu Jialing, etc., and blow rainbow farts.

"Even though it's only the first film, I still want to say that "Looking for the Dragon" is the best movie in the "Ghost Blowing the Lantern" series, bar none!"

"A typical representative of the Hollywoodization of domestic films, the shooting technology is impeccable, and the special effects gave me a great surprise. Although the plot is over-adapted, the characters are close to the original. It is a rare and excellent adaptation."

"I would like to call "Looking for the Dragon" the best fantasy adventure business in Huaguo! Although it does not have much plot connection with the original work, all the characters are created in line with the characteristics of the book.

Especially Staff Officer Yang, starring Liu Qianqian, made my eyes shine. Since stepping out of the comfort zone of costume dramas, the young lady's acting skills have improved significantly. Well, there is also that mouth-watering figure... Looking forward to the next one! "

"It's unexpectedly good. There are no faults in all aspects. It's really not easy for Fang Ziheng and the film's creators to produce such an adaptation project at such a high level!"

"Xia Yu and Huang Bo are funny, Liu Ye and Liu Qianqian are in charge of IQ and opening the tomb, a passionate and fantasy tomb robbery adventure, a huge underground palace, guardians of the thousand-year-old cemetery, vast and mysterious, so handsome!"

"The operation of all aspects of the film has fully met the standards of Hollywood fantasy blockbusters. Fang Ziheng understands movie fans, and is even more right for movie fans. I must give him a thumbs-up, and let's go~!"

"Niu Potian! As soon as "Looking for the Dragon" was released, it set a high standard for Huaguo's fantasy special effects blockbuster. The details and effects presented by the film industrialization system are amazing. Fang Ziheng's screenwriting imagination is still so powerful!"

"If it's not popular, it's unreasonable! I like Fang Ziheng and the young lady crazily. I love to watch the movies that the two collaborated with. The only regret is that the sequel is a bit difficult to produce!"

Compared with the shocking praise of the media, the evaluation of movie fans is more real and rare. The fantasy world with Huaguo characteristics created by "Looking for the Dragon" is like a sharp sword that has pierced the hearts of countless people.

It's beautiful, it's really beautiful!
For the second time, Huaguo movie audiences called out the special effects blockbuster with Huaguo characteristics, which is not worse than Hollywood movies at all!

In a five-star hotel.

Fang Ziheng, Liu Ye, Huang Bo, and Zou Zhaolong finished their massage, chatted and laughed, and went to the restaurant for supper.

In the VIP box, the ladies of Liu Qianqian had already ordered dishes and were waiting for them to eat together.

Liu Jialing opened a bottle of red wine, stood up and offered Fang Ziheng half a glass, and said with a smile, "Director Fang, I want to ask your opinion on something."

"Oh, what's the matter, Miss Jialing?"

Fang Ziheng tapped the table twice with two fingers, swallowed the fried noodles in his mouth and smiled.

Liu Jialing is usually more reserved, maintaining the demeanor of her predecessors, only playing very well on the mahjong table.

After a few days, this was the second time she poured herself wine. The first time was at the dinner where the single-day box office of "Looking for the Dragon" exceeded [-] million for three consecutive days the day before yesterday.

Based on intuition, it should not be about "Looking for the Dragon".

Everyone also relaxed their movements, looked at Liu Jialing, and waited for her to speak.

"That's right. Yang Sheng from Hong Kong Island knows that you are busy, so he specially sends his greetings to Director Fang through me. This year, Emperor has invested in a movie called "Reverse War". Yang Sheng wants to seek Hengyu Media's help in publishing it."

""Reverse War"!"

Fang Ziheng's heart skipped a beat, and he instantly recalled the situation of the movie.

"Reverse War", directed by Hong Kong director Lam Chiu-hsien, is a gunfight action movie starring Zhou Milk Tea, Xie Tingfeng, Lin Peng, Bai Bing, An Zhijie, Jin Yanling, etc.

He forgot the plot of the movie, which roughly tells the confrontation between the International Security Bureau police and the international criminal group.

Among the two forces, one is the older brother and the other is the younger brother. The two are anxious about each other in their family relationship and work, and in the end, the evil can outshine the good.

This is the customary way of Hong Kong Island, kidnapping official justice with family affection and brotherly loyalty, so as to reflect the inner world of the character.

The box office doesn't seem to be high, barely breaking [-] million. The Emperor made a small loss in this movie.

Yang Cheng, an old guy, naturally didn't come to ask Liu Jialing to help build a bridge, he is really old enough.

After thinking for a while, Fang Ziheng nodded in response, and said, "Sister Jialing, you reply to Director Yang, Hengyu has accepted this film, let him come to the Imperial City to discuss the specific distribution share."

"Understood, thank you Director Fang!"

Liu Jialing smiled openly, raised the red wine to pay respects to Fang Ziheng, do it first!

Liu Jialing is quite proud of Fang Ziheng's willingness to give face, and is also very fortunate that she is from the mainland.

There are so many people in the film and television industry in Hong Kong Island, and in the past few years, no one can shoot Hengyu's project.

She still remembers that when she signed the contract with the producer Lin Feifei, the other party said with a smile: She made the right move to go back to the mainland to develop.

Thinking about it now, the reason why she was able to land an important role in "Looking for the Dragon" was because of her cadastral status in the Mainland.

After supper, everyone went upstairs.

Fang Rou pulled Liu Qianqian to follow, and said with a smile: "Brother, I almost forgot, Mr. An sent me a message this afternoon, and it was also about the release?"

"Ha, it seems that our Hengyu is really famous, and people have come to seek distribution one after another."

Fang Ziheng was overjoyed, gasping in amazement, leaning on the sofa in the living room of the suite, crossing his legs and lighting a cigarette, looking like a big boss.

Fang Rou reported while the two went to the water: "It's also a movie on Hong Kong Island. If it wasn't for Liu Jialing's advance, I wouldn't have thought of it."

"What's the name of the movie?" Liu Qianqian took off her coat and interjected.

"It seems to be called some kind of battle, wait for me to check my phone."

Fang Rou came over with two cups of hot tea, took out her phone from her pocket, clicked on the text message from Andy, squinted her eyes and said: "The movie is called "Chill", and it is also an action shootout movie. Participate in film and television investment, seek our Hengyu distribution!"

"Chill!"

Fang Ziheng muttered softly, secretly thinking that it was this movie.

This movie is much better than "Reverse War". It has a lot of great actors, both in terms of plot and highlights. It is known as the best Hong Kong Island police and gangster movie after "Infernal Affairs".

"Tell Andy that this film Hengyu has accepted, and it will be negotiated according to the release of 12 points, at least not less than 10 points!"

Fang Ziheng made a final decision, and he was full of style.

After Hengyu established a group company, it has successively mastered and released several blockbuster movies. The downstream publicity and distribution channels have been completely improved in the past six months.

Among private film and television companies, Hengyu Group is now a well-known brand.

This time "Looking for the Dragon" reproduced the movie-watching craze, which brought subtle changes to the structure of the entertainment industry.

The producers who had previously approached China Film, Huayi, and Bona for distribution began to turn their attention to Hengyu Media, trying to use Fang Ziheng's hand to maximize the effect of film promotion.

For the first time, Hengyu Media has received foreign films seeking distribution.

This is a great thing, which shows that the company's authority has been established. While everyone chose to believe in Fang Ziheng, they also took a look at Hengyu Media's distribution capabilities.

It is foreseeable that starting from 2012, there will be more and more films released by Hengyu.

接下几天，《寻龙诀》持续火爆，分别在5号、6号、7号、8号拿到8200万，7700万，7100万、6500万的好成绩。

The rate of decline has been stable and has remained within 10%.

On the morning of the 9th.

The box office data for the second week of "Looking for the Dragon" has been released.

People in the circle and movie fans who pay attention to the box office of the movie squeezed into the Weibo of "Looking for the Dragon" immediately.

With anticipation, everyone clicked on the heavy box office data sheet.

Mainland movie market, box office list for the week from January 1nd to January 2th.

No.1: "Looking for the Dragon", released for 9 days, with a weekly box office of 5.81 million and a total box office of 8.095 million!
8 million in nine days!
The extremely dazzling data blinded everyone's eyes.

Many people subconsciously rubbed their eyebrows, wondering if they had read it wrong.

That's right!

"Looking for the Dragon" once again broke all records, and its terrifying box office is unmatched.

In front of the computer screen, in front of the screen of the mobile phone, countless people must watch the total box office of the movie,
Shocked speechless.

Invincible!
"Looking for the Dragon" is invincible!

Fang Ziheng is invincible!

The movie fans were happy, screaming and pounced on Fang Ziheng and Liu Qianqian's Weibo, sending the most sincere blessings and rainbow farts.

The entertainment media is also excited!

While reposting, scolding Hengyu Media, scolding them for being unprofessional, it was released at the box office in the early morning, and it is only now released.

The rare end of the mainstream media, extensive coverage of this feast of the film industry.

This week, the mainland film market has entered the hottest time in film history, which is even higher than last year.

The atmosphere of New Year's Day and the enthusiasm brought by "Looking for the Dragon" have made movie theaters all over the country extremely popular, and the attendance rate of 3D screening halls has always exceeded 75%.

Overnight, it seems that the world has changed.

Going into the cinema to watch a movie, watching a "Looking for the Dragon" has become a subconscious trend of the public.

Whether it's a single office worker, a married couple, or the middle-aged post-70s.

The common people are full of interest in movies about fantasy tomb robbery, and in the emperor's tomb of Genghis Khan opened by Mojin Xiaowei.

Find treasure in the tomb and make a fortune!

The audience is excited when they think about it, and they substitute into it while watching the movie, wishing they could become a member of the trio.

The popularity of the film market has also caused the market value of several major companies in the film and television industry to skyrocket.

Huayi and Guangxian have the most rises, and even Huatest, which specializes in TV dramas, gets a big chunk of meat.

The boss of Huatest also specially held a meeting to discuss the company's strategy, whether Huatest Film and Television should set foot in the film market.

Ali made another offer to Hengyu, offering 60 billion soft sister coins to acquire 45% of the shares of Hengyu Media Group.

You know, just half a month ago, Ali gave a price of 50 billion soft sister coins to acquire 50% of the shares.

In just half a month, the quotation was 10 billion higher, and even the shares were 5% less.

Zhang Yun from Alibaba's strategic investment department came to Hengyu for the second time and had a friendly discussion with Concubine Lin, saying that Jack Ma admired Fang Ziheng very much and invited him to Hangzhou to discuss the entertainment business.

Fang Ziheng shook his head and laughed when he heard the news. He was in Hangzhou two days ago, why didn't Jack Ma come to see him.

Let him meet Jack Ma in the past and listen to the other party's fooling and brainwashing, thinking too much!
But one thing is certain, "Looking for the Dragon" is really crazy.
