Entertainment, I just like making movies

New week.

"Wolf Warrior" ushered in its first big dive, with a box office of 390 million in seven days, a drop of more than 50%.

However, the average single-day box office is still very impressive. After 11 days of release, the total box office reached 1.267 billion, and the average daily box office exceeded 100 million.

Hengyu Media, Hengyu Interactive Entertainment, and Bona Pictures are very satisfied with this data. According to Yudong, as long as it exceeds 1 billion, it will be enough.

On the Internet, the announcements of Hengyu and Bona continued, and the media's touts never stopped.

The overwhelming praise came one after another, and the titles were as shocking as they were. Major entertainment media and new media couldn't wait to praise "Wolf Warrior 1".

At the same time, many mainstream media also followed suit, praising "Wolf Warrior 1" as excellent and a rare military action film with the main theme in recent years.

["Wolf Warrior", using blood to create the might of China's military! 】

Beijing News: “Today, when Hollywood blockbusters are rampant, the release of two movies, Operation Mekong and Wolf Warrior 1, deeply stimulated the patriotism and spiritual backbone of the Chinese people.

The passion and bravery of "Wolf Warrior 1" will surely influence the younger generation, inspire their passion and fighting spirit, and further enhance the national defense awareness and patriotic sentiment. "

[There is never a quiet time, it’s just that someone carries the burden forward for us! 】

People's Daily: "The world is not peaceful or peaceful, nor do we live in a peaceful era.

But we live in a peaceful country!

The name of this country is Huaguo!

The culture war is also a war. It is a war without gunpowder and happens all the time around the Chinese people.

The excellence of "Operation Mekong" and "Wolf Warrior 1" is not only good-looking movies, they are also movie warriors, standing on the frontline of culture to resist the Western world's cultural invasion of us! "

The two major publicity mouthpieces praised it one after another, providing the last firewood for "Wolf Warrior 1", which greatly amplified the film's reputation.

In the next two weeks, "Wolf Warrior 1" continued to make efforts, relying on its strong word-of-mouth effect to stabilize the declining box office trend.

The third week is from July 20 to July 26.

Faced with the two aggressive movies "Monster Hunt" and "Pancake Man", "Wolf Warrior 1" opened its vicious mouth and took in 350 million in box office, ranking third in the weekly box office list.

In the fourth week, the film's word-of-mouth effect has completely spread, and despite the declining box office trend, it has made another success and once again won a record-breaking box office of 280 million.

After 25 days of release, the total box office reached 1.897 billion, which is only one step away from 2 billion.

On the morning of the 26th, the Film Bureau issued the latest instructions, giving "Wolf Warrior" an extension key and extending the release time to 40 days!

The movie has a stable box office of 2 billion, it just depends on how high it can reach in the end.

At the same time, "The Taoist Comes Down the Mountain" and "Tiny Times 4", which were released at the same time, both fell behind.

The former only received 300 million at the box office, while the latter was 50 million higher, which is nothing to be afraid of.

Although the subsequent releases of "Monster Hunt" and "Pancake Man" took the first and second place in the weekly box office from "Wolf Warrior", their box office trends were also severely hindered by "Wolf Warrior".

As of August 2, the box office of "Monster Hunt" was 1.55 billion, a full 250 million less than the previous one.

In the previous life, "Monster Hunt" grossed over 1.8 billion at the box office three weeks before its release.

Coupled with the accumulation of subsequent screening time, the total box office of the movie reached a height of 2.44 billion when the movie was released.

In this life, "Monster Hunt" meets "Wolf Warrior", and it is estimated that it will be difficult to become this year's summer champion.

Another movie, "Pancake Man" did not have enough potential. It suffered a fatal plunge this week, only taking in 70 million at the box office in seven days.

The current cumulative box office has also been cut off by "Wolf Warrior", from breaking 1 billion in three weeks in the previous life to 700 million in three weeks, a full 300 million less box office.

"Wolf Warrior 1", relying on its incredible reputation, has earned nearly RMB 890 million in box office from several Hollywood and domestic movies.

August 19th.

"Wolf Warrior 1" is about to end, with a total box office of over 2 billion, reaching 2.34 billion, making it the well-deserved champion of this summer season.

"Monster Hunt", which ranked second, barely exceeded 2 billion in total box office, and its limelight was stolen by "Wolf Warrior 1".

Hengyu Interactive Entertainment and Bona Pictures held a grand celebration banquet for "Wolf Warrior 1". The night of the banquet was filled with stars and celebrities.

Fang Ziheng did not go, and others were in Sanqing Mountain, making the last-minute sprint for the completion of "Immortality".

………

Time flew by.

September 15th.

"Immortality" came to the last filming location. The male lead Li Qing faced the light of purple clouds rising in the east and created the Golden Elixir Avenue that popularizes and applies to human cultivation.

Deng Chao, who has worn purple and green Taoist robes all his life, sat alone at the highest point of the Daqian Taoist Temple, staring at the rising sun in the east, holding Taoist formulas with his hands, and breathing according to the movement instructions to enter the state.

More than two hours later.

"Click, OK!"

Fang Ziheng shouted loudly in front of the entire crew: "I announce that "Immortality" has been completed."

"Thank you for your hard work, we won't go home until we get drunk tonight!"

The excited voice spread through the small speakers throughout the entire crew, followed by bursts of cheers.

"Eurasia, it's finished!"

"The director is awesome, long live the director!"

"Haha... after nearly two years, I can finally have a good rest!!"

"Yeah, I've been really busy this year. Several times my girlfriend came to visit me and I didn't have time to spend time with her."

"You're okay, but I'm miserable. My girlfriend has been ignoring me for almost a week!"

"Oh, I'm such an old man. When I return to the Imperial Capital, I have to give myself a long vacation and go home to spend time with my family."

Continuous filming, high-intensity work, the whole team is working hard, and when I hear the director shouting "finished", I let out a long sigh of relief for no reason, and all kinds of sighs and emotions well up in my heart.

Fang Ziheng was also inexplicably emotional, waving for everyone to pack up their equipment, and came to a city wall alone, looking at the top of Sanqing Mountain.

The theme of "Immortality" is the first original work he created.

Taking the Chinese myths and legends as an example, it created a mythical story about a mortal cultivating immortality and immortality.

The theme of mythology is different from that of fairy tales. The stories are complex and there are many mythical characters. Almost every character has a legendary life.

It is very difficult to show so many characters in one movie and embody the character's charm.

"Immortal" consists of two parts, with hundreds of characters appearing. It is the film that Fang Ziheng put the most effort into.

It is also the most tiring movie!

In the evening, the crew had a wedding banquet and everyone drank too much.

A group of actors, led by Liu Qianqian and Deng Chao, toasted to Fang Ziheng one after another and insisted on getting him drunk.

Fang Ziheng was prepared and asked Song Yi to secretly change the boiled water for her. Faced with the siege of everyone, he would not refuse anyone who came.

After three rounds of drinking, he was not drunk. On the contrary, Lao Dengtou and the others turned red in the face.

Zhang Songwen shook his body, slowly came to the front, grinned and said: "Director, thank you for giving me the opportunity to participate in an important role. It is your usual strict request and let me know that a real actor is far more than what is said in the textbook. It’s that simple.”

"Thank you, director!"

After saying that, Zhang Songwen's shaking body suddenly stabilized and bowed to Fang Ziheng at a 90-degree angle.

Behind him, Luo Jin, Hu Ge, Jiang Shuying and other actors suddenly stood up and exaggeratedly shouted: "Director, thank you!"

Seeing everyone's true feelings, Fang Ziheng's eyes were slightly red. He waved his hands for everyone to sit down and said with a smile: "I should thank you. The filming of "Immortal" is obviously difficult. Without your full support, I couldn't have completed this by myself." movie.

"Thank you, thank you for your trust!"

"Come on, let me take one for everyone!"

Fang Ziheng picked up the wine glass and stood up, drank the boiled water in the glass, then picked up Jian Nanchun and got a glass of real wine, and drank it all in one gulp.

"The director is open, let's toast the director together!"

"Come on, let's all drink together!"

The next day.

Fang Ziheng's experts arrived in the Imperial Capital and rushed back to Hengyu headquarters at two o'clock in the afternoon to attend the group's third quarter financial report meeting.

After a long and tiring journey to the group, he went directly to the large conference room No. 1 on the 20th floor without taking a break.

"Hello, Chairman."

"Chairman, thank you for your hard work!"

"Chairman, congratulations on making another excellent movie."

Dozens of senior executives in the conference room all stood up to greet Fang Ziheng with satisfied smiles.

"Everyone has worked hard, please sit down!"

When he came to the main seat in the center, Fang Ziheng put his hands down, rubbed his cheeks while sitting down, and said in a serious voice: "There is not much time, I have to fly to Ji Province tomorrow, everyone picks up film and television projects and reports first."

"Okay, let the film business department report together and make it faster!"

On the left, Andy looked at the haggard look on his lover's face and felt a little distressed. He immediately controlled the scene and asked everyone to hurry up.

The others also stopped smiling, returned to their seats one by one, and looked at Liu Liang, the director of the film business department.

After Wen Muye was transferred to Hengyu Interactive Entertainment, deputy director Liu Liang stepped up and led the film division with Tian Xiaopeng and Hao Yi.

He was a film producer in his early years, and only retired behind the scenes after joining Hengyu.

Liu Liang coughed lightly, and while opening the project documents in front of him, he took a stack of financial report data from the hands of production director Lin Wei and financial director Lin Ruohua.

Among them are the investment amount of the project, box office profit, distribution profit, and the final net income data.

"Chairman, everyone, the group released two master-controlled movies in the first two quarters of this year, namely "The Richest Man in Xihong City" and "Operation Mekong", both of which were hits."

Liu Liang stood up and started talking with a happy smile on his face.

"The richest man in Xihong City, with a total box office of 2.2 billion, the group accounts for 90% of the film's share, and the remaining 10% belongs to director Ning Hao's Bad Monkey Film and Television Investment, who invested in the film with director Ning Hao's salary.

After deducting 8.3% of the film fund and taxes, the group and theater lines split the accounts 55%, and a total of 907 million net box office was recovered.

The film production cost is 120 million, Hengyu Interactive Entertainment and Beidou Qixing jointly distribute it, and the publicity cost is 80 million.

In addition, the group also needs to pay 6% of the issuance sub-account to Big Dipper Company.

To sum up, the net box office revenue is still 653 million, which is pure profit! "

After saying this, Liu Liang paused and spoke again: "In addition to the box office split, the movie also sold 30 million in copyright fees. The copyright fees are divided into two types. The revenue from the Hong Kong Yindu Agency's sales to various parts of Asia, Tudou Video has exclusive broadcast rights for 20 years.

During the film project establishment period, 135 million in feature sponsorships were also sold.

Chairman, everyone, "The Richest Man in Xihong City" finally created a total net profit of 818 million for the group. "

Bang bang bang...

Bang bang bang.

The sudden reminder of the warm applause shocked Fang Ziheng's exhausted spirit. He sat up straight, smiled and joined everyone in congratulating "The Richest Man in Xihong City".

In the previous life, "The Richest Man in Xihong City" was released in 2018, with a total box office of 2.548 billion.

This life was three years ahead of schedule, and the box office was only 348 million less. It is definitely a hit among hits.

Comedy movies, as long as they are shot to a high standard and have a good schedule, there is no need to worry about whether the audience will like them.

I still remember that "Mermaid", which will be released during the Spring Festival next year, is not as high as "The Richest Man in Xihong City", but its total box office once exceeded 3 billion.

What does it mean? It means that the audience likes comedy and has identified those comedians.

Directed by Ning Hao and starring Shen Teng, "The Richest Man in Xihong City" easily achieved the box office target of 2 billion three years ahead of schedule.

After reporting on "The Richest Man in Xihong City", Liu Liang took a sip of water and continued to report on the benefits of "Operation Mekong".

"Operation Mekong is jointly controlled by the Group and Bona Pictures. The script is created by the Group. The Group accounts for 75% and Bona Pictures accounts for 25%.

Director Lin Chaoxian invested in the film with his remuneration and enjoyed 12% of the profit sharing. The total investment in the film was 300 million, and the group’s actual investment was 195 million.

The total box office of the movie is 1.88 billion. After deducting 8.3% of the film fund and tax, it is also divided 55% with the theater chain, and the total net box office is 862 million.

The film is jointly distributed by the group and Bona Pictures, with a distribution profit of 10%, 86.2 million.

The group occupies 75% and gives priority to 6465 accounts!

After deducting the investment cost of 300 million, the total income was 475.8 million, of which director Lin Chaoxian had priority in receiving 47.58 million.

The remaining 427.9 million, the group accounts for 75%, and the net profit is 320 million.

The movie was launched in the Asian market in June, and Yindu Institution charged 10% of the distribution. In the end, it recovered 150 million soft sister coins from the box office, and the group could get a profit of 112.5 million.

In addition, 80 million yuan of feature advertisements were also sold, and together with distribution profits, "Operation Mekong" created a total profit of 577.5 million yuan for the group! "

Liu Liang finished talking about the division of accounts in one breath. He didn't bother to pause. When everyone really wanted to applaud, he suddenly increased his passion and shouted a little more passionately.

"Everyone, although "Operation Mekong" is a collaboration with Bona Pictures and the net box office revenue may not seem high, the influence of this movie is more powerful than "The Richest Man in Xihong City"!

According to data from Hengyu Interactive Entertainment, during the release of "Operation Mekong", the company's stock price showed a skyrocketing pattern. By the end of the movie, Hengyu Interactive Entertainment's stock price had increased by a total of 8 billion, and the total market value had successfully exceeded 130 billion. !

The overall revenue brought by "Operation Mekong" is no worse than that of a small gold mine! "

Bang bang bang...

Bang bang bang...

Thunderous applause echoed throughout the meeting.

All the executives present were as excited as if they had been given a shot of chicken blood.

Many of them are usually busy with things. They only know that "The Richest Man in Xihong City" and "Operation Mekong" have brought a lot of growth to Hengyu Interactive Entertainment's stock price, but no one knows the specific increase by how much.

Now that I heard Liu Liang’s popular science, everyone didn’t know that the group was making a lot of money, and Hengyu Interactive Entertainment was also making a lot of money!
