Rebirth: I'm filming extra scenes on the set

Chapter 158: The birth of a domestic movie with a box office of over million yuan. (Subscribe)
not bad.

Two hours are over.

Chen Cheng walked out of the cinema in a good mood.

In fact.

Before taking on the role of "Secret" from Jie Lun, Chen Cheng discovered that this film was underestimated.

Many of his settings and elements are very novel and attractive.

Like the parallel time and space theory, youth campus plot... etc., they are all very eye-catching.

But unfortunately, the previous version explained the theory of parallel time and space too complicatedly.

It was only briefly mentioned at the end.

But this reference is also cryptic.

That’s why the box office of this movie was so low in the end.

But in Chen Cheng's version, a series of original shortcomings were corrected.

not only.

Chen Cheng also made full use of his advantages.

That is the youth campus drama.

Especially Lu Xiaoyu's classic face-poking move on Ye Xianglun was inherited (moved) in this version.

……

"Chen Cheng, how much do you think our movie "The Impossible Secret" will make at the box office?"

Although Chen Cheng did not participate in the promotion of "The Impossible Secret".

But Jie Lun still called Chen Cheng as soon as possible.

For movies.

He really likes it.

Not to mention.

He also wrote the script for this film himself.

In addition, although this film was not shot by him, his name is still the director.

This made Jie Lun extremely excited.

Chen Cheng thought for a moment and said, "It is estimated that the box office will be 1000 million on the day, but the performance in the next few days will depend on the film itself."

Although Chen Cheng is also looking forward to "The Impossible Secret".

But movies are such a thing.

It’s really hard to say.

Many films that filmmakers are optimistic about just fail to perform well at the box office.

There are also many films that many filmmakers don’t think highly of, but they actually become box office hits.

Therefore, the more Chen Cheng engages in this field, the more rational and objective he becomes.

Not to mention that "The Impossible Secret" was not confirmed in the previous life.

Even if it is confirmed.

If there are other interference factors, Chen Cheng cannot guarantee whether this film will be a hit or a flop.

"1000 million on the first day would be great."

In fact it does.

"The Impossible Secret" won a big victory at the beginning.

The box office on the first day exceeded 1000 million.

This number is naturally nothing to the people of later generations, and it can even be said to be not that great.

But for the domestic film industry in 2007, such a number is still terrifying.

To know.

Last year, the box office of "The Banquet" and "Curse of the Golden Flower" was only over 1000 million per day.

It can be seen from this.

Judging from the box office appeal, Jie Lun’s appeal on the first day was still very strong.

But cross-border is cross-border after all.

As a new generation king in the music industry, Jie Lun’s box office appeal on the first day is enough to rival those big guys.

But the next day, "The Impossible Secret" quickly fell into decline.

The box office broke 1000 million yesterday, and the next day, it was only 500 million.

Although 500 million doesn't look bad either.

If it could maintain 500 million for a few more days, the box office of "The Impossible Secret" might even surpass many big productions.

But for those in the industry, they know.

Breaking 1 million on the first day was certainly good, but it dropped directly to 1000 million on the second day, which shows that the film lacks stamina.

"Chen Cheng, let me tell you, the box office of 'The Impossible Secret' is estimated to be around 3000 million to 4000 million."

Han Sanping called Chen Cheng.

From his words, Chen Cheng could clearly feel that he wanted to get back at his former self.

However, Chen Cheng was relatively calm.

Although the box office of "The Impossible Secret" was only 500 million on the second day.

But Chen Cheng discovered that after the second day, there were many more comments about "The Impossible Secret" than before.

This means that "The Impossible Secret" is slowly fermenting.

only.

He just hasn't exploded yet.

But after all, the data is there, and Chen Cheng would not refute what Han Sanping said: "Director Han, you are really wise."

"You just know now."

Han Sanping laughed and said, "So, why don't you send me the notebook? I'll check it for you."

Chen Cheng was amused: "Director Han, you are eager for me to make a movie."

"Anyway, it's an investment of 1000-2000 million. If the investment is successful, it will prove that I have good vision."

“What if the investment fails?”

"Just pretend I'm blind."

"Pfft..."

Chen Cheng burst into tears: "Director Han, are you scolding yourself or me?"

Say so.

But Chen Cheng also understood what Han Sanping meant.

for him.

He can still make the decision on investments of 1000 to 2000 million.

Even if the investment fails, the most you can do is explain that you made a mistake.

This is normal.

There are too many mistakes in the industry.

Not to mention, such a small cost.

Even if it loses everything, it is not a big deal for China Film.

"Let's wait until "The Impossible Secret" is off the shelves."

Chen Cheng said.

"You kid, are you still looking forward to this movie?"

"Let's see. You can't be sure about this kind of thing. It's only been released for two days, and there's still a month left."

"You're not going to give up until you see the Yellow River. All right, let's keep watching."

hang up the phone.

Han Sanping complained about Chen Cheng again.

In fact, he made this call not to show off his prediction or anything.

more.

He still wanted to take a look at the book Chen Cheng had made.

Yes.

Han Sanping has always been optimistic about Chen Cheng.

He really wanted to take a look.

What will the performance of this young genius’ first book be like?

Of course.

Strictly speaking, this was not the first time Chen Cheng took action.

"Love Call Transfer" is Chen Cheng's first time.

But Han Sanping, who knows the inside story, knows that "Love Call Transfer" is a customized drama.

He is more focused on advertising for mobile.

This naturally cannot be considered as Chen Cheng’s real move.

……

The next few days.

Chen Cheng didn't go anywhere.

He was at home, checking the box office of "The Impossible Secret" and reading various reviews of "The Impossible Secret".

On the third day, the box office of "The Impossible Secret" continued to decline, reaching only 300 million.

On the fourth day, "The Impossible Secret" grossed 280 million.

On the fifth day, the box office reached 250 million.

Many people think that "The Impossible Secret" is not going to work.

If the full cycle is completed, the box office will be around 3000 to 4000 million.

With such a box office, it cannot be said that it is a loss.

Not only can you not say that you are losing money, but you will even make a little profit.

after all.

Among these, the biggest cost is the Jie Lun, and the other costs are not considered any other costs.

If you calculate it this way, it is possible to make some money.

But this profit doesn't make much sense.

Many people in the circle know it.

If such a crossover does not cause much sensation, it will consume the fans' expectations.

This time, there may still be fans who will support Jie Lun.

So what about next time?

What about next time?

In 07, 50 yuan for a movie ticket was still considered quite expensive.

It is impossible for ordinary fans to pay for their idols again and again.

But Chen Cheng remained very calm.

Although the box office of "The Impossible Secret" has continued to decline, the online reviews have continued to rise.

only.

The current domestic movie box office is not as good as in later generations, and his performance is not as rapid as in later generations.

This also means that even though "The Impossible Secret" has received good reviews and has a good reputation, it has not yet been reflected in the box office.

"Chen Cheng, is our film really such a failure?"

Jie Lun was a little depressed and called Chen Cheng again.

“I think it’s much better than a lot of movies.”

Chen Cheng said comfortingly.

It really is.

Let's talk about pounce.

Domestic movie box office revenues range from millions to hundreds of thousands.

Don't think that these films that cost millions or hundreds of thousands of dollars are of shockingly low production value.

Although it does exist.

There are also many companies that invest tens of millions but only earn back a few hundred thousand at the box office.

"Besides, our "Impossible Secret" has not been removed from the shelves yet. Who knows what will happen in the future."

"Don't comfort me, let me cry for a while, I feel like I might not be suitable for movies."

Jie Lun hung up the phone in a very depressed mood.

but.

sometimes.

It’s really as Chen Cheng said.

He really couldn't say for sure about movies.

future.

How do you know what will happen to him?

Eleven days after its release, the box office of "Secretly Impossible" returned to 11 million.

Such a box office did not attract much attention.

A box office of 200 million is nothing.

but.

On the 12th day, the box office of "The Impossible Secret" still stood above 200 million.

This kind of data also doesn't attract many people's attention.

but.

Such box office data has attracted the attention of various theater companies.

"Two million box office for two consecutive days."

"This is despite the continuous reduction in the number of films scheduled."

“It looks like this Impossible Secret has some potential.”

Is there anyone who understands the potential of a film better than the major cinema chains?
Through screening rate, box office, release cycle, current competitors... a series of comparisons.

They will be able to find out which films have potential and which films are not so good.

even.

None of them need to see it themselves.

Their box office software has already sent alerts to major theater companies.

"Increase the screening schedule of "The Impossible Secret" by 1 point."

"Increase the screening schedule of "The Impossible Secret" by 2 point."

"Increase the screening schedule of "The Impossible Secret" by 3 point."

The major cinema companies are in the business of making money.

How to make money?
Naturally, it is to maximize benefits.

For films with potential, the screening schedule should be increased.

For films without potential, the screening schedule will have to be lowered.

Originally, the ratings of "The Impossible Secret" had been continuously lowered.

But the sudden rise made them see the changes brought about by "The Impossible Secret".

then.

Various theater companies began to adjust their film schedules one by one, two by three.

until.

When the box office of "The Impossible Secret" reached 500 million again.

Almost all the media in the circle were completely shocked.

……

"The box office of "The Impossible Secret" exceeded 500 million again on the same day."

"'The Impossible Secret' exploded with potential and returned to the top of the box office that day."

"The word-of-mouth of "The Impossible Secret" exploded, triggering countless reviews."

If the box office on the first day of its premiere was 500 million.

I guess no one is paying attention.

Even if the box office reached 500 million on the second, third, and fourth days, no one would pay attention.

but.

After 15 days of release, "Secretly Impossible" still had a box office of 500 million, which is incredible.

It's not just against the will of heaven.

If you look back at the box office before "The Impossible Secret", you will see that this is not as simple as defying the will of heaven.

The box office of "Secretly Impossible" fell from high to low, and then plummeted.

But suddenly it was at the bottom again, and then slowly rose again.

Such a rise is often impossible.

According to normal data, it is impossible for him to appear.

Whenever this happens, it means that a work is about to rise.

"The Impossible Secret" is such a work.

【Wanda Cinemas increases the screening schedule of "The Impossible Secret" by 10 locations. 】

【Southern Cinema increases the screening schedule of "The Impossible Secret" by 6 locations.】

【Century Cinema increases the screening time of "The Impossible Secret" by 7 locations.】

at this time.

Do we still need to discuss whether this film has potential?
With such strong box office results, almost all theaters have gone out to film the film.

Whether it is the screening schedule, the viewing time, or even the recommendation, "The Impossible Secret" is given the best position.

Ever since.

"The Impossible Secret" once again performed a miracle.

20th day of release.

The box office of "The Impossible Secret" once again exceeded 1000 million on the same day.

"It's broken 1000 million box office again."

"The total box office is already 7000 million."

"Could it be that the box office of this movie will exceed 100 million?"

No one can guarantee the box office for now, but "The Impossible Secret" will definitely make over 100 million yuan.

But this time, the box office broke 20 million again 1000 days after its release.

His sensation.

It was even more explosive than when the box office broke 15 million on the 500th day.

Such a number.

Not to mention people in the industry, even ordinary audiences have discovered the horror of "The Impossible Secret".

"Brothers, is that "The Impossible Secret" really that good?"

“I haven’t seen it, but judging by the box office, it’s a big hit.”

"Yeah, it makes me want to go and take a look."

"Me too."

"In that case, then... let's go."

That's what movies are about.

I don’t know how many viewers there are, as they don’t usually go to the movies.

or.

They usually watch it, but they usually pick and choose the movies to watch.

If it’s a movie that doesn’t do well at the box office, sorry, they don’t want to watch it.

Although it doesn’t mean that the box office is not high, it doesn’t mean that it is not a good movie.

But the probability of a movie not having high box office and being a good movie is too low.

Where do they get so much money and time to verify one by one?

Then.

The box office has become the most appropriate criterion for testing whether a film is good or bad.

For the general public.

If the box office is high, it means the movie is good. Even if it is not good, it means it is good.

then.

Friends who had no interest in this movie also rushed into the cinema.

"Box office: 7800 million."

"Box office: 8400 million."

"Box office: 9000 million."

"Box office: 9300 million."

"Box office: 9600 million."

"Box office: 9800 million."

"Box office 9900 million..."

Countless people are watching the box office of "The Impossible Secret".

until.

When the total box office of "The Impossible Secret" reached 1 million.

The front-page headlines of major media outlets read: The ninth domestic movie to gross over 9 million yuan is born.

Ahead of him are:

Hero, Kung Fu, House of Flying Daggers, A World Without Thieves, The Promise, Curse of the Golden Flower, The Banquet, Huo Yuanjia.
