Chapter 261 Selling Favors (Please subscribe for the second update!)

"The box office of "Now You See Me", which was released last Thursday, reached 9300 million in the first weekend and four days, and it is only one step away from breaking the [-] million mark!"

""Now Now You See Me" grossed 9300 million in its first week, surpassing "Red Cliff", which earned 8300 million in seven days, and became the top weekly box office champion in mainland China!"

""Now Now You See Me" reached nearly [-] million in the first weekend, and it became popular all over the country. Tang An once again created a new genre!"

""Now Now You See Me" swept the summer holiday season, and the box office in a single week exceeded the sum of all movies in the same period!"

"The magic and crime-themed blockbuster "Now You See Me" produced and distributed by Huayi Brothers has made great strides since its release last weekend. It earned 4 million yuan in 9300 days and won the weekend box office chart in the mainland, setting Tang An's personal best opening result!"

4 million in 9300 days, if not for "Red Cliff", breaking [-] million in four days is almost stable.

Although it did not exceed the box office of "Red Cliff" on the first day, thanks to Hua Yi's large investment in publicity, the coverage of "Now You See Me" is much more than that of "Red Cliff", although the other party also got 8300 million.

7月21日，《惊天魔盗团》在第一个工作日以46%的跌幅再度拿下1300万票房，而《赤壁》的票房已经跌到了600万。

However, the trend of "Red Cliff" is still stable, and the decline is also stable at about 50%.

It broke through 5 million in [-] days after its release, which is much faster than "The Wind".

In the next three days, "You Now You See Me" earned 3800 million at the box office.

"Red Cliff" earned 1900 million in three days, and there was not much difference in the daily box office.

"Now You See Me" was released for 7 days, with a total box office of 1.44 million.

"Red Cliff" has been released for 14 days, and the total box office has exceeded the 2.08 million mark, reaching [-] million!
This is also the second movie to break through 2008 million box office after "Yangtze River No. [-]" in [-].

At the same time, it surpassed the 2.03 million of "Yangtze River No. [-]" and became this year's annual box office champion.

However, the gap with "You Now You See Me" is only 6000 million. Keeping the current trend, it is very likely to catch up.

Seeing the box office approaching step by step, Wu Bo became more and more anxious, but now he has done everything he can, even spending money to hack "Now You See Me" has no effect.

"Tell me, what else can you do now?" Wu Bo glanced at everyone with a sullen face.

No one dared to speak, and the previous suggestion to find a topic in the movie's magic has turned into building momentum for the other party.

Seeing that none of them spoke, Wu Bo slapped the table angrily, "Why, they are about to be overtaken by others now, and there is nothing they can do?"

After being silent for 2 minutes, the director of the publishing department said, "Wu Dong, we don't have time to deal with "Now You See Me". It just broke 20 million in just [-] days after its release. Difficult."

As soon as these words were spoken, everyone woke up instantly.

During this period of time, I have been thinking about how to curb the other party's films, and I have forgotten this.

Wu Bo hurriedly took out the data and looked it up. The box office of yesterday and Thursday was only more than 600 million. Counting this weekend, it was more than 7000 million, and there was still a gap of nearly [-] million!

Every time the box office exceeds [-] million is a watershed, and it is a world of difference when it reaches less than [-] million. They still have the next part to be released next year.

It has reached 3 million, which is definitely beneficial to the promotion of next year's movies.

After thinking about it, it's better not to worry about "You Now You See Me".

"So, isn't there going to be a [-] million celebration party tomorrow? Make it bigger, and spend the money that should be spent. Don't keep it and end up with nothing to spend!"

In the next three weekends, maybe the celebration press conference of "Red Cliff" had some effect. In the three days, it got a total of 3100 million box office, and it exceeded the [-] million mark in all three days.

The total box office reached 2.39 million.

Stimulated by the recovery of the box office, Cheng Tian once again intensified his efforts in publicity, trying to boost the box office in one go.

But in Huayi, at the regular meeting on Monday, Wang Zhongjun didn't care at all.

"It seems that "Red Cliff" is coming back to life. Our box office is still 400 million to [-] million. We will work harder next week!"

"Tomorrow's celebration press conference will be a little bigger, and all the influential media in the circle are invited to come!"

After the meeting, Wang Zhongjun stopped Tang An.

"Mr. Tang, 12 million in [-] days, you gave me a big surprise."

Since the movie was released, the smile on Wang Zhongjun's face has become brighter and brighter day by day, almost turning into a blooming chrysanthemum.

"Wang Dong is being polite, our publicity is in place, and we have spent 5000 million so far." Tang An waved his hand and smiled.

"Almost, it took more than half of it, and there are 4500 million left, which is enough to deal with the rest of the time."

"In this case, I will definitely maintain the current momentum for another week, and then I can slowly save some money." Tang An suggested.

Wang Zhongjun didn't know why, "What does Mr. Tang mean?"

"As long as this decline is maintained next week, it won't be a problem to get more than 5000 million. In the end, it is certain to exceed [-] million, and it is inevitable to overtake "Red Cliff". There is no need to exchange money for the box office." Tang An explained a little bit. .

Now Wang Zhongjun understood what he meant, as long as the box office is guaranteed to exceed [-] million and surpass "Red Cliff", the task will be successfully completed.

More than 3.5 million is unlikely, and there is not much difference between 3.1 million and 3.4 million.

After all, only more than 1000% of the box office is distributed, and every 3000 million promotional fees will cost [-] million box office back and forth.

Wang Zhongjun nodded and laughed loudly, "Okay, just listen to Mr. Tang. It's rare that Mr. Tang understands the righteousness and doesn't care about personal box office data!"

The goal has been achieved, and of course the next step is to maximize profits as much as possible. It is not wise to waste money just for the box office of 3000 to [-] million.

And by this time, the follow-up box office will depend on word of mouth, and the previous publicity is already well known.

"Furthermore, Director Wang and Director Han also have a target of 3 million for "Red Cliff". Let's slow down the promotion and give them a chance to breathe." Tang An added.

"Tang always said to sell it to Han Dong?" Wang Zhongjun was thinking.

"Producing two [-] million-level movies at the same time is a good thing for Director Han, and there is no harm for us, and whether "Red Cliff" can break [-] million is up for debate."

With the current trend of "Red Cliff", it is very difficult to reach 3 million box office. They have already relaxed a step in publicity, and they can't blame them if they fail to reach Han Sanping.

"Tomorrow's celebration will invite Director Han, and he should have hints that Director Wang will accept it at that time. In this way, Director Han will be favored." Tang An added.

He knew how much Han Sanping liked "Red Cliff". If Han Sanping's affairs were ruined, he might give himself some shoes.

This time, if "Now Now You See Me" becomes the first Chinese movie with a box office of [-] million, Han Sanping will still value him. Get ready.

Moreover, defeating "Red Cliff", defending the title of "King of Summer Files", and breaking [-] million by the way, has successfully fulfilled expectations.

Looking at the back of Tang An leaving, Wang Zhongjun sighed inwardly.

Sometimes he felt that Tang An understood the problem better than himself, and many things in him were not as deep as he thought.

However, Tang An has recently invested in three movies in succession, as well as a blockbuster costume movie. He is afraid that he will be unwilling to stay under others for a long time after he has tasted the taste of power.

I hope that the few movies he invested in will perform well, and he will stay in Huayi peacefully.
