The King of Directors 2000

Chapter 319
At 2005 o'clock in the morning on June 6, 17, the sky in Yanjing was a little brighter. The buns in the bun shop on the street were not yet cooked, and the cleaning lady was sweeping the floor. Chen Xun woke up Li Shengyao.

"Get up, get up."

Li Shengyao opened his eyes, then reached out and grabbed a handful, "You want it?"

Chen Xun shook his head with a smile, "The movie is coming out, aren't you nervous?"

The premiere of "Let's Punch, Dad" was a big success. After the premiere, there was another wave of hype and hype.

In the early hours of this morning, "Let's Punch, Dad" was officially released nationwide.

Li Shengyao kept his hands, then grasped and squeezed, constantly changing the shape, "Don't be nervous, it's useless to be nervous."

He was actually a little nervous. He didn't go to bed until early in the morning last night. Before going to bed, he called his assistant to inquire about the situation on Hong Kong Island and Xinmatai.

But of course there is no need to say such a thing.

Director Li must have momentum.

Chen Xun nodded in admiration, then moved closer and hugged Li Shengyao, "I'm a little nervous."

"Then let me relax for you."

An hour later, Li Shengyao and Chen Xun got up, and then they went to the noodle shop at the street corner to eat ramen together.

At this time, the sky was much brighter, and Li Shengyao received a call from his assistant.

"Boss, I have already asked about the statistics of major theaters in the mainland. So far, the box office of "Let's Punch, Dad" should be around 150 million."

From early morning to 06:30, 150 million, if it is an ordinary movie, this score is not bad.

But for the well-known "Let's Punch, Dad", this box office is actually quite satisfactory, so-so.

"Hero" had a box office of 500 million on the first day, and a full 200 million in the first week.

The box office here does not have seven days in the first week, but three days.

That is Friday, Saturday, and Sunday.

Mainland movies like to have official releases on Fridays.

"House of Flying Daggers," "Kung Fu," and "A World Without Thieves" are all released on Fridays.

"Punch it, Dad" is no exception.

Last year, "Kung Fu" set a new record for Chinese-language films, with a box office of 700 million on its first day and a full 300 million in its first week.

Now "Let's Punch, Dad" has only 150 million in the past six and a half hours, and the data should be far inferior to "Kung Fu".

But relatively speaking, this time point is not as good as the Lunar New Year file.

Although there are no new Hollywood blockbusters released recently, there are still Hollywood movies in theaters.

For example, "Firewall", "Frozen", "Star Wars Episode 3", in addition to some domestic films, such as "Shen Nongjia", and "The Storm".

Director Li has a lot of face, "Let's Punch, Dad" accounts for about 50.00% of the total film schedule, like Fenghua Film Studios in various places, it even accounts for 60.00% of the film schedule.

Such a result is not good, but it is not bad either.

Today Li Youbin and the others will promote in major movie theaters in Yanjing, and will start going to other cities tomorrow.

Li Shengyao doesn't need to be so tired, he mainly rests in Yanjing during this time and listens to the data.

After breakfast, Li Shengyao went back. He slept late last night and had to catch up on sleep.

Chen Xun turned on his computer and searched the Internet for news related to "Let's Punch, Dad".

"Word of mouth is very good, it's all praise, but why is the box office so so?"

Li Shengyao also felt a little uncomfortable in his heart, but he had long been mentally prepared and didn't think too much, he climbed into bed and fell asleep.

When he woke up, it was already ten o'clock at noon, and Chen Xun appeared in front of Li Shengyao with a smile on his face, "Guess how much it is?"

The sun was just right at this time, Li Shengyao saw that although he didn't smile, but there was excitement in his eyes, he said, "Is there 300 million?"

"Well, everyone is sleeping in the early morning, and there are more people watching movies during the day. Now it is 310 million."

There are still fourteen hours left, and it should be about the same in the morning and afternoon, mainly to see if it can erupt in the evening.

In fact, whether it is "Hero" or "Kung Fu", there are large-scale screenings before the release, which means that there are several million box office screenings.

Although this box office will not be included in the box office on the first day, it will be included in the box office in the first week.

And after several days of screenings, the word-of-mouth fermentation will definitely come faster than the premiere ceremony.

The reason why Li Shengyao did not choose to let "Let's Punch, Dad" be screened was because Fenghua Cinemas was working for the first time and there were not enough staff.

A large number of employees need to be arranged to watch the screening, otherwise, if the movie is leaked, it will suffer.

"Let's Punch, Daddy" was not screened, and the box office on the first day and the first week were relatively mediocre, but they were actually normal.

The main thing is to see if word of mouth spreads later and whether it can attract more viewers.

It is best to complete the box office harvest in the first two weeks. Generally speaking, the box office will drop significantly in the third week.

And "The Promise" will be released in half a month. Although the box office of this movie is low, it will definitely affect "Let's Punch, Dad".

First of all, "The Promise" will squeeze the filming.

Secondly, the pool is only so big, some viewers may not have so much time, and in hesitation, choose one of the two and choose Wuji.

Therefore, it is still necessary to harvest early, so as not to get behind, and the box office will fail.

Li Shengyao then got up, and he took Chen Xun to Fenghua Film and Television Company, and suddenly found that all the employees in the company were very concerned about the box office of "Let's Punch, Dad".

He was moved, and then announced to buy milk tea, coke chicken wings, and give out benefits to everyone.

Amid cheers, Li Shengyao returned to his own office.

At twelve noon, the growth of the box office slowed down again, and the total box office was only about 350 million. In the afternoon, the box office increased again. At six o'clock in the afternoon, the total box office reached 500 million.

This box office can only be said to be so-so, the navy on Takuo's side is not very good at bragging, it is because they can't find an entry point.

Li Shengyao was also a little worried at this time.

It's been 500 hours, and it's only [-] million, which is really a bit small for a movie that aims to exceed [-] million.

However, many urban white-collar workers get off work on Friday, and the rest is a real weekend holiday.

Li Shengyao didn't want to worry about with the employees in the company, it made him irritable.

And Director Li can't lose his reputation, he doesn't want others to see him nervous.

At 07:30, the assistant called with an excited voice, "Boss, good news, good news, I just got the latest box office statistics, and the box office is now around 700 million."

After only one and a half hours, the box office increased by 200 million. If there is no accident, the box office on the first day should be 1000 million.

After all, it's not Lao Mouzi, Zhou Xingxing.

It would be nice to have 1000 million on the first day, and Lee Seung Yew is very satisfied.

More than four hours later, in the early hours of the morning, Li Shengyao received another call from his assistant, "Boss, it's not just 1000 million, it's a full 1000 and [-] million."

"Okay, send out the notice."

1000 and [-] million on the first day, better than Lee Sheng Yew expected, it can be blown.
