Entertainment, I only like to make movies

Chapter 263 Breaking 13 billion in a low-key way

New Year's Eve, a traditional festival in Huaguo.

It is also a traditional stove day, which is usually regarded as the beginning of a busy year.

It means that people start to prepare new year's goods, sweep the dust, sacrifice stoves, etc., and prepare to have a good year cleanly, expressing people's good wishes to bid farewell to the old and usher in the new, and to welcome good luck and happiness.

Today is the 23rd of the twelfth lunar month, the New Year's Eve in the northern region.

In the compound building complex, red lanterns are hung high, and the green trees are covered with clouds and colors, and the atmosphere of the Spring Festival is everywhere.

Eleven at night.

Fang Ziheng and Song Yi returned home, embraced each other and went upstairs to the bathroom.

Zeng Li went to accompany Concubine Lin, saying that they were going to buy new year's goods tomorrow, and they would discuss what to buy together at night.

The discussion between the two was false, but it was true to give Song Yiteng a place.

The little girl is busy flying all year round, and rarely stays alone with Fang Ziheng.

As big sisters, Zeng Li and Concubine Lin naturally knew what the little girl was thinking, so they slipped away after the dinner.

Just after twelve o'clock, the two came out wearing bath towels, and when they were about to score twice, Fang Ziheng's cell phone rang.

Liu Qianqian made a video call on time.

"Yeah, Miss Sissy."

Song Yi felt guilty, pointing at the photo on the phone screen, hesitating.

"It's okay, you get under the covers, your sister Qianqian is afraid that I will go out and fool around, so she called to check the room."

Fang Ziheng was a thick-skinned group, and he sold the young lady by opening his mouth.

The two climbed into the quilt, Fang Ziheng leaned against the head of the bed, propped up his legs, let Song Yi hide in his arms, and then covered the quilt.

After finishing everything, he connected to the mobile phone to preemptively strike, and asked in surprise: "Sissy, where are you, the plane is here so soon?"

"No, this flight is not a direct flight, and it will take a connecting flight in half an hour."

Liu Qianqian showed her figure from her mobile phone, beside Lao Mouzi, Liu Ye, Huang Bo and others.

"Everyone, good evening, happy New Year's Eve."

Fang Ziheng waved and greeted everyone calmly.

Under the covers, Song Yi was startled, her little heart was beating wildly.

It’s over.

It’s over.

How come there are others, so they won't be discovered!
She nestled on Fang Ziheng's lower abdomen, put her arms around his waist, and did not dare to move.

Liu Qianqian walked around with her mobile phone, and after everyone finished greeting, she smiled sweetly: "Director, how is the premiere of "Embroidered Spring Knife" going? We just bet on the first-day box office on the plane?"

"Oh, who made the bet!"

"Brother Bo opened it, and he said that the box office on the first day was 3000 million!"

"How much did you guess?"

"Hee hee, I guess 4000 million!"

The little sister's beautiful eyes are shining, she is very satisfied that Fang Ziheng lives at home, and there is no one else around.

Before posting the video, she had made up her mind that if Da Mimi went to the duplex building, she would definitely show up at this time, holding Fang Ziheng in her arms to demonstrate to her.

She just made a video call to Concubine Lin and Concubine Zeng, and the two appeared at Concubine Concubine's house, indicating that there is only one iron in the duplex building.

Hmm... Tiezi should take a shower in the bathroom.

The young lady analyzed the situation in an instant with her not-so-smart mind.

At this time, Huang Bo came behind her, poked out his greasy head and exaggerated: "Director, how much box office do you think "Embroidered Spring Knife" can get on the first day, Brother Ye told Xia Yu at least 3500 million!"

"How much did Director Zhang guess?"

"Hehe, Director Zhang watched the entire film, but we didn't let him join!" Liu Qianqian giggled and pointed the camera at Lao Mouzi.

Lao Zhang was with Andy, Ni Tan, Liu Jialing and others, happily chatting about movies.

Andy took a few moments to look at it, but didn't come over to speak on purpose. All that should be said was finished at the Imperial Capital Airport in the morning.

In this trip to North America, apart from promoting "Looking for the Dragon" and "The Year of Chasing Dreams", there are two other things.

One is to sell the copyright of "Flying Swords of the Dragon Gate", and the other is to continue to cooperate with Deng Wendi to shoot medium-budget R-rated movies in North America.

Last year, Hengyu and Deng Wendi tried their hand at a small game, cooperating on an R-rated movie called "Ghost", and the two sides made a small profit of 2000 million US dollars.

This year Fang Ziheng plans to increase investment and invest in the production of three 3000 million US dollar production projects in one go.

"The premiere was very good, at least 4000 million at the box office on the first day, Sissy, what is your bet, ask Huang Bo to prepare a copy for me later."

Fang Ziheng smiled, moved his body to lean against the head of the bed, and guided Song Yi to crawl in the center of the bed.

"A big meal, a whole fish feast!"

Liu Qianqian made a gesture of scissors, smiled brightly, and turned her phone to Huang Bo's depressed face.

hiss..
Fang Ziheng took a light breath and kept a calm smile on his face: "Brother Bo can eat whole fish feast.

That's it. Next year we will go to Hengdao to start work. He will be the first to treat guests. He will have a whole fish feast in the West Lake first. Anyone who sees him will have a share! "

"What, those who see it have a share, director, you are too cruel!" Huang Bo cried, complaining about his wallet.

There was laughter from the other end of the phone, Liu Ye, Reba and others gloated.

After chatting a few more words, boarding began over there.

Liu Qianqian gestured to Fang Ziheng and hung up the phone hastily.

call..
A sigh of relief was exhaled.

Fang Ziheng lifted the quilt, Song Yi raised his head, and looked at him with winking eyes.

the next day.

Song Yi was still sleeping soundly, she was tired last night.

Fang Ziheng got up quietly, cooked breakfast and went to the study to check the online reports and film reviews of "Xiu Chun Dao".

In addition to the release of "Xiu Chun Knife" during the Spring Festival, there are also 20 movies released.

January 1: "Crisis Public Relations"

January 1: "Wedding Wine"

January 1: "Killer Ouyang Potted Plants"

January 1: "Unforgettable Survival"

Counting "Looking for the Dragon" and "The Year of Chasing Dreams", there are a total of 22 movies currently in theaters.

Originally, "The Girl We Chased Together in Those Years" was also released in January, but somehow it was withdrawn and moved to March.

Among the 22 movies, ten of them are comedies, which shows that everyone thinks that comedies are more in tune with the atmosphere of the Spring Festival.

It's no wonder that Li Ming, who is a galloping pony, was dissatisfied. The entire January of 2012 could be described as a fight between dragons and tigers, and the major producers and distributors played their heads.

Since the early hours of last night, reports on "Xiu Chun Knife" have gradually increased on the Internet. Hengyu Media, China Film Group, and Galloping Horse are working together, and no producer in the industry can compete alone.

The zero box office is 625 million, a very eye-catching figure!
Before noon, "Embroidered Spring Knife" occupied the most popular search lists. With a large amount of publicity expenses, it successfully took over the popularity of "Looking for the Dragon" and became the most popular movie during the Spring Festival.

"Embroidered Spring Knife"!
A story dedicated to the Ming Dynasty Jinyiwei, a powerful and violent institution.

Douban Film Critic: From the promotional positioning of "Xiu Chun Knife", it can be seen that this is not a martial arts movie, but a slightly serious and orthodox costume movie.

"The whole film is not passionate, romantic, or heroic, but it is full of brotherhood and real love.

In the movie, Shen Lian, played by Deng Chao, as the core character, made a choice related to his wealth and life in order to love Zhou Miaotong.

The elder brother played by Wang Qianyuan chose to take all the responsibility out of love for his brother.

When all the dust has settled, all the causes are planted on love, and all the fruits are also born on love! "

Tencent Entertainment: Unexpectedly good, the script written by Fang Ziheng is always worth looking forward to!

"Newcomer director Hao Yi, his narrative ability must be appreciated. "Embroidered Spring Knife" is a traditional martial arts film with a complex relationship between characters. The main and sub-plots are multi-lined, but they don't look messy, and they are explained clearly one by one over time.

Several leading actors have excellent acting skills, and they are always immersed in the entangled hearts of the bottom soldiers of Jinyiwei in the late Ming Dynasty.

The film seems to have a small structure, but it is fascinating, allowing the audience to immerse themselves in it. The picture is superb and the service is excellent. It is worthy of an excellent work with an investment of 1.2 million! "

NetEase News: Knights survive within the system!
"Jin Yiwei, exists within the system, is at the top of power, is directly ordered by the emperor, steps on the most dangerous steel wire, does the dirtiest work, looks beautiful, but has a gloomy heart. Everyone must smile and hide their knives, ruthless."

"The protagonists of "Embroidered Spring Knife" are three hard-working young Jin Yiwei who are highly skilled in martial arts but are at the bottom of the forced system.

This setting makes the eyes of all audiences shine. Their situation is the same as ours and has the same distinctive characteristics.

All three of them have life difficulties that are difficult to break through, and they have made a pot of gold capital in a so-called "opportunity".

When there seems to be a slight turning point, the system, life, and destiny are all suppressed together, the meager hope becomes a dream, and the humble ideal is also smashed to pieces. "

"The editor was honored to attend the premiere last night, and I can pat my chest to assure everyone that "Embroidered Spring Knife" has a rigorous plot, fits the historical facts, and the characters are sharp and sharp. It is definitely a very sincere movie."

Fang Ziheng browsed the movie reviews for a while, opened Weibo and posted a paragraph.

"Wearing a flying fish suit, with spring knives embroidered on the waist and hips, patrolling and arresting, as if I were here in person, so is the Jinyiwei!"

"As the saying goes, a group of horsemen flew in suddenly, like a falcon, stern and ruthless, there is no point in killing, and the rest fled starry night!"

Soon, there were comments on Weibo, all of them were his hardcore movie fans and physical fans, as well as his and Liu Qianqian's CP fans.

Flesh fan: "Fang Lang, Happy New Year!"

Die-hard movie fan (female): "Honey, I want to give birth to a monkey for you!"

Die-hard movie fan (male): "Last night, I watched "Embroidered Spring Knife". It was so good."

Probably a black fan: "Brother Jiaqian! Tell me, how much can I have dinner with you?"

CP fan: "Old Fang, why didn't you go to North America to promote, Sissy is abroad alone, aren't you worried?"

Fang Ziheng is handsome, young, talented, and rich. There are too many female fans who like him.

His Weibo account has as many as 4000 million followers, ranking among the top male stars, and only a few top male actors of the Mesozoic Era surpass him.

In just half an hour, there were more than [-] comments on Weibo, making it a top star for future generations.

On January 1, the box office of "Xiu Chun Knife" came out on the first day.

Fang Ziheng was not disappointed. On the first day, the box office hit 4900 million, which was 100 million short of 5000 million.

Many young people walked into the cinema with their families at the end of the year. When they saw Fang Ziheng, Deng Chao, Huang Jiaozhu, and Song Yi participating in the performance, they immediately recalled "Four Famous Catchers" and bought tickets without thinking.

At this point in time, the leader of Huang is not yet synonymous with bad movies, and the greasy title has not yet disappeared.

Deng Chaogang had a wonderful performance in "Flying Swords of the Dragon Gate". It was the hottest time, and the media said that he, Chen Kun and Liu Ye were the top three male artists of the Mesozoic Era.

Even because of "Run, Brother! "Blessings, Lao Dengtou attracted a large wave of young pinks last year, and his popularity was higher than that of Chen Kun and Liu Ye.

Last night, this guy also complained to Fang Ziheng, saying that there were too many announcements last year, and he ran around the crew all year round.

He didn't have time to go on a date with Sun Li. He was worried that the relationship between the two would not be stable, and Fang Ziheng almost believed it with the bitter expression on his face.

If he hadn't said a word more to help inquire about the situation, and took out his mobile phone to call Sun Li, he would have succeeded in pretending to be coerced by this guy.

Damn, old Dengtou is worse than him!
.........

In the next few days, "Embroidered Spring Knife" became extremely popular.

1.32 million in three days, and 2 million in five days, so that the few movies released in the same period did not have the slightest temper.

After winning 16 million and 17 million on the 3050th and 2880th respectively, "Looking for the Dragon" ushered in a decline again.

18号、19号、20号三天，单日票房分别为2770万、2560万，2330万、2180万。

It was released for 19 days, and the total box office in the mainland was 13.046 billion!
Judging from the current box office trend, "Looking for the Dragon" will soon surpass "Edge of Tomorrow" and break through 14 billion.

The film bureau issued a key, and the screening time was extended by ten days.

Fang Ziheng deliberately blocked the news that "Looking for the Dragon" broke 13 billion, and waited for "Embroidered Spring Knife" to hit the box office for a few more days.

Otherwise, the popularity will not be uniform, and it is easy to deviate from the rhythm, resulting in misguided promotion of "Xiu Chun Knife".

North America also ushered in a big dive in the fourth week.

The single-day box office fell from 600 million US dollars to below 400 million in one day, a drop of as much as 45%, and only 1800 million US dollars in five days.

The rest of Asia was relatively stable, with another 5200 million soft sister coins in five days, and the total box office reached 2.45 million.

Song Dynasty from Yindu Agency called. According to the box office trends in various places, the total box office in Asia is expected to exceed 3.5 million soft sister coins!

Regarding this, Fang Ziheng couldn't deny it. He originally thought that Asia could hit [-] million.

3.5 million is not bad either.

His reputation as a director has gradually risen in Asia, and several films have achieved outstanding results.

Hong Kong Island, Little Days, South Korea, Singapore and other places played the promotions he wrote and directed, which attracted a wave of young fans to follow.

The prestige of an international director has taken root step by step and has become more stable!
.........

For a few days at the end of the year, Fang Ziheng lived a leisurely life at two o'clock and one line.

Go to Hengyu to handle company affairs in the morning, accompany Lin Feifei and Zeng Li to buy new year's goods in the afternoon, and write scripts in the evening.

Zeng Li and Song Yi won't be going home this year, and they agreed to celebrate the New Year in the duplex building.

Concubine Lin had to go home, and she could come over on the first night of the first day of the lunar new year, just in time for the four of them to gather for a mahjong table.

Liu Qianqian is far away in North America. Every night, she plays a video to come to check the ward, just like clocking in at work.

But except for the first two days, the younger sister was obviously a little perfunctory behind, and didn't even ask who was in the duplex.

As long as she sees other people at home, she will be happy.

He didn't know that the young lady followed Da Mimi's Weibo secretly, so that the little assistant always kept an eye on the opponent's movements.

Da Mimi's net worth skyrocketed last year, and she was busy with business at the end of the year. She either participated in announcements or filmed commercial endorsements, so she didn't have time to come to the private meeting in the duplex building.

The young lady who got the news breathed a sigh of relief, smiling all day long.

Even enduring the pain of lovesickness, facing Fang Ziheng's video hookup, he didn't feel cold at all, and hung up the phone after chatting.
