Chapter 497 Box Office Estimation
Early the next morning, Chen Shuo said goodbye to Liu Yifei and headed directly from home to the airport.

Cheng Guanxi and others looked tired, even a group of drifting girls were looking the same, while Liu Weiqiang was angrily reprimanding them.

Cheng Guanxi and Yu Wenle were like quails under thunder, all they could do was lower their heads and remain silent.

Seeing this, Chen Shuo couldn't help but shake his head.

While waiting for the flight, he sat next to Zhou Jielun, who was a little better, and said with a smile: "It seems that you guys played very intensely last night? But where did you go yesterday to play like this?"

"Fuck!" Zhou Jielun rubbed his temples. He had been hungover all night, and now he wanted to dig out his brain.

"Have you ever heard of 'Heaven and Earth'? If I had known better, I might as well have gone to the place you recommended. As a guy with a girlfriend, I would have suffered a lot by going to a place like that with them."

Chen Shuo's expression changed, he glanced around Cheng Guanxi and others, and asked Zhou Jielun in a low voice: "What on earth did you play yesterday? Could it be..."

Seeing that he looked wrong, Zhou Jielun waved his hand and said: "It's not what you think, we just experienced the characteristics there. Besides, I didn't do anything except drink."

After a pause, he raised his chin and gestured to Cheng Guanxi and others, and said, "Of course, they are quite satisfied."

Chen Shuo patted his shoulder and said: "I said, when you are going to organize a game in the evening, I won't choose a place like this. It's okay for everyone to find a place to drink and chat together. This kind of thing can be avoided. Yes, I am in a critical period now."

"Critical period?" Zhou Jielun was stunned for a moment, then understood, nodded and said: "Don't worry, it's unclear whether they will still have energy tonight.

When we arrive in Taiwan tomorrow, I will take you to a fun place.Don't worry, I won't make it difficult for you. "

"That's good."

Next, not only Cheng Guanxi and others were lying on the sofa and almost asleep, but even Zhou Jielun had no desire to talk.

Seeing this, Chen Shuo was also happy to be quiet, and took out a notebook from his bag to write and draw.

After a while, following the announcement from the airport, everyone boarded the plane quietly, and then arrived all the way to Xiangjiang. They rested in the hotel for a while in the afternoon, and in the evening the premiere of Xiangjiang was held at Causeway Bay Plaza.

Indeed, as Zhou Jielun guessed, the rest on the plane and in the afternoon could not make up for the energy of Cheng Guanxi and others, and everyone had no intention of going out to play anymore.

Of course, Liu Weiqiang and others also strictly prohibited them from going out anymore. After all, this is a critical period for publicity. If some scandals really happen, the movie will be ruined.

The damage caused by that time would be that even if Cheng Guanxi and others were killed, he would not be able to forgive him.

With his strict prohibition, Cheng Guanxi and others had no choice but to stay in the hotel.

After a quiet night's rest, I headed to Taiwan for promotion the next day.

When he came to Zhou Jielun's territory, even Chen Shuo couldn't compare to his popularity. Suddenly, he became the most famous person in the entire publicity team.

In the evening, under Zhou Jielun's hospitality, everyone took a bath in the hot springs to get rid of their fatigue.

This project was unanimously approved by Liu Weiqiang, Chen Shuo and others. Even Cheng Guanxi and others had nothing to say because they were accompanied by the drifting girl.

After that, he went to Singapore for promotion.

This is Chen Shuo's second time here. The last time was when he was promoting "House of Flying Daggers" last year. After the promotion, he went to Japan to shoot "Initial D".

And this year, after attending the premiere of "Initial D", he went directly back to the crew of "Swordsman" for filming.

Huanya's expectations for "Initial D" are in the Pan-East Asia region, more concentrated in Hong Kong, Taiwan, Singapore, Japan and other places.

They don't pay much attention to the mainland, mainly because Chen Shuo doesn't have much time for publicity now. In the early morning of June 6, after a night’s rest in Singapore, the first wave of publicity was over.

After Chen Shuo returned to the hotel after his morning exercise, he met Liu Weiqiang and others in the restaurant.

"Chen Shuo, come!" Seeing him, Liu Weiqiang waved.

Chen Shuo sat down next to him, looked at the smile on his face, and asked: "Director Liu, what's the happy event?"

Liu Weiqiang handed him the phone and smiled: "Look, this is the box office for the first month sent by the company."

Chen Shuo took it and looked at it, and saw that it showed that the box office in the mainland was 3 million in the first three days, and the box office in Hong Kong so far was 1100 million Hong Kong dollars.

He couldn't help but raise his eyebrows. Overall, the box office results were pretty good.

Since "Initial D" is not released on Friday, but on Monday, the explosive point of this first week's box office is yet to come.

If we estimate based on this data, the box office in the mainland in the first week will be close to 3000 million. If it does not collapse too badly in the later period, it will eventually reach 8000 to [-] million.

The possibility of breaking through [-] million is almost zero.

Chen Shuo doesn't know much about the box office trend in Xiangjiang, but the market in Xiangjiang is not big, even though more people go to the movies than in the mainland.

The final box office is estimated to be 5000 to 6000 million, after all, Zhou Xingxing's "Kung Fu" only had a box office of more than [-] million.

He didn't think that he and Zhou Jielun combined could be as good as Zhou Xingxing in Xiangjiang.

Moreover, "Infernal Affairs", which is known as Hong Kong's rescue film, only cost HK$500 million.

However, such data is already very satisfying for Chen Shuo.

There are works that can exceed [-] million yuan, and all of them have famous directors and big names joining them.

To be honest, "Initial D" relies more on the fame of Chen Shuo and Zhou Jielun.

Liu Weiqiang and the other three are not famous directors in Hong Kong, let alone in the world.

This movie claims to have an investment of more than 2000 million US dollars, but in fact the investment is no more than 5000 million Hong Kong dollars.

Judging from the current situation, there will be no loss, but a small profit.

"Congratulations, Director Liu!" Chen Shuo returned the phone to him and congratulated him.

Liu Weiqiang took the phone and said with the same joy: "Now that our first phase of promotion has passed, when the first week's box office comes out, the company is going to hold a celebration banquet.

At that time, we will conduct a second round of promotion based on data from various places. It will also be released in Japan, Bangkok and other places soon. Don’t forget to participate when the time comes. "

Chen Shuo could naturally think of the information that he could guess, and even said that the company had asked professionals to estimate it, and the final result was very ideal.

It can be said that this celebration banquet is already a certainty. It will not only allow everyone to celebrate, but also stimulate the box office in the second week.

Chen Shuo is also looking forward to this, "Definitely, as long as Director Liu says hello, I will definitely come."
