Chapter 128 End of the Spring Festival (Part 2)
"Have you all watched "Ride the Wind and Waves"?"
The host is Zhang Quanbing. The younger generation of Xihong TV Station can host the roadshow of "Riding the Wind and Waves". In addition to meeting the business level, more importantly, he has always maintained good contact with Bai Xiaofei!
"See it!"
"Does it look good?"
"nice!"
The atmosphere on the scene gradually became hot, and the appearance of the main creative staff made the atmosphere to the top!
"Let's ask the director, what do you think of returning to his hometown during the New Year's Day, when he returns to his hometown with the latest movies?"
Xiaobai took the microphone and said, "Well... I was a little expectant and a little nervous before. After all, the only one who can judge the movie was made, for fear that the audience would not like it..."
"Do you like it?"
"…like!"
"Don't worry now!"
Zhang Quanbing handed the microphone to Xiaobai again in a way of seeking credit, and the latter laughed happily.
"I heard that the name of the protagonist in this movie is your father?"
“…Uh, yes, it’s my dad and my grandfather!”
"How did you think of it..."
"I just think their names sound very nice, much better than mine. Bai Xiaofei, who don't know, thought it was "The Corpse Brother"!"
“…Let’s ask the actors.”
Zhang Quanbing automatically ignored this meme...
He really doesn't know what the hell is 'Corpsy Brother'...
"Brother Chao, can you tell me why you took on this drama?"
"... Actually, I was not going to take on the show, but I was going to finish my work this year because the next movie was to do some physical exercise. Then I had to accompany my family because I haven't been with them for a long time. Then Xiaobai found me with the script. He told me about ten minutes, and I decided to take on the show!"
"Is it the story of "Ride the Wind and Waves"?"
"Yes, but it wasn't so perfect at that time. When he came to me, the script was still being written!"
"We all know that Brother Chao is also a director. Will he have any ideas during the filming?"
"I think the division of labor in the crew is clear. If I am an actor, I should interpret the role according to the director's wishes. I have an idea about the role itself. I think the director is very good in this regard. He is the kind of person who is willing to listen to other people's opinions. Of course, the premise must be for the good of the play!"
Deng Chao’s interview is almost done, and it’s Zhao Liying’s turn!
"Liying, he told you that you were appointed by the director? Did you know him before?"
"…I know her, but I haven't met her before!"
Miss Xiaoqin answered very honestly.
"Then you received the invitation, especially knowing that the role you were going to play was actually Brother Chao's mother, did you hesitate?"
"…No, no burden. He traveled through time, I don't know, he knew, it was him who was burdened..."
"Will you be influenced by Chao Ge's joy during the performance?"
"No, I haven't done it myself yet. It would be nice if I don't affect him!"
“…”
Xiaobai smiled and looked at Deng Chao, who was also trying to maintain his demeanor.
Sister Xiaoqin is so straightforward and cute!
...
The cost of filming of "Riding the Wind and Waves" is 68 million, and the promotion and distribution cost 30 million. Rounding it will be 100 million!
Although the cost of successful advertising implantation is controlled at around 50 million, it is still a real 50 million!
Fifty million is simply blood for Gu Nianxi!
Since she moved into Yongsheng, most of the TV series she handled were TV series, and the investment was not too large. A movie actually required 50 million yuan in production funds...
Thinking back to the beginning, Gu Nianxi was so scared that she paid out...
On the first day of the Lunar New Year, Gu Nianxi learned that "Riding the Wind and Waves" had 140 million yuan on the first day, and Gu Nianxi knew that her position might be stable...
The cost was recovered on the first day of release, and the subsequent box office was net profit!
This does not include copyright operation and overseas marketing…
According to the prediction of eye-catching data, the final box office of "Riding the Wind and Waves" is likely to exceed 1.5 billion...
One-third of the total box office is the revenue of the production company. The investment of less than 50 million yuan was exchanged for a return of nearly 500 million yuan. No matter how you look at it, this is a very good result in data.
What is the most important thing about a company’s executive vice president, of course, is performance!
"I feel that Bai Xiaofei can succeed no matter what movie he does, so I decided to invest in the project "Ride the Wind and Waves" for five minutes before me!"
This is a good show!
Is the whole project related to her half a cent?
To put it bluntly, "Riding the Wind and Waves" is a "breakup" gift given to Chen Laoba by Xiaobai!
If you really look up to Bai Xiaofei so much, you will not hinder his promotional and distribution funds - the issuance funds are basically paid by Bai Xiaofei's studio.
I am very dissatisfied with my work, but it is understandable that as a newcomer, she will know how deep the entertainment industry is when she plays for a few years. Anyway, novices' movies will never have the shadow of Yongsheng in the future!
...
During the seven days of the Spring Festival, the crew of "Riding the Wind and Waves" traveled to more than a dozen major cities across the country - "Riding the Wind and Waves" targets the first-tier city viewing groups.
The last stop is Beijing!
At 10:30 in the evening, the publicity ended, and several people were a little exhausted.
“…Look at the box office, which one can be ranked during the Spring Festival!”
As soon as he got in the car, Xiaobai asked Pingping to turn on his phone.
The latter has long been confident: "Today's box office results are almost all out, we have 110 million..."
Before Xiaobai could speak, Pingping continued: "We ranked second in the seven days of the Spring Festival, with a cumulative box office of 989 million yuan, and the first place was "Kung Fu Yoga", which was 1.027 billion yuan;"
"Where is "Journey to the West"?"
"Journey to the West" is almost 700 million, ranking third. Baby's "Making a Fight in the World" has a bad reputation, with a box office of 550 million... No, you seem to be very concerned about "Journey to the West"? Didn't you say that the young and handsome guys can't bear the box office?"
"After all, it's Old Monster Xu, with an investment of 400 million yuan..."
"The industry estimates that the total box office of Journey to the West should be around 1.2 billion, and it should be no problem to recover the cost!"
"Um…"
"…It's like that? The box office of a movie has exceeded one billion in a row. Don't you say it?"
"What does it mean? You don't have to move any penny of money you earn this time. Do you remember Sister Baolian's original words?"
He sighed: "Is there any red envelope prepared by Yongsheng?"
"...I don't know, there should be some. After all, they have made hundreds of millions of dollars, so it's okay to pay some money!"
The box office sales are so popular. According to the rules, of course, we have to give some to the crew members. This has always been done by the main investor...
"You will ask Huang Liang later. If Yongsheng doesn't pay, let's pay it yourself!"
"You didn't say..."
Pingping was about to say something when Xiaobai's cell phone rang.
"Hey, right, now? Not very convenient, tomorrow, tomorrow afternoon, yes..."
"Who?"
"Xiao Zhao..."
"Alas! Beauties have loved talented men since ancient times..."
Pingping shook his head and sighed.
"…Where is following? She said she had something to do and asked me for it!"
"What can I do if a woman calls the man at midnight?"
Chapter completed!
