Chapter 146 145. "Those Years" officially breaks 100 million

"Sina Entertainment News "Those Years, We Chased the Girl Together" was officially released in the mainland on July 1. As of July 29, the total box office of the film in the mainland exceeded 100 million yuan, making it the highest-grossing domestic love movie in the mainland.

"As of press time on the 29th, the domestic youth film "Those Years" has officially exceeded 100 million yuan in cumulative box office. Director Wei Wu has also become the fourth director to join the 100 million yuan director club after Zhang Yimou, Feng Xiaogang, and Chen Kaige. He is also the youngest at the age of 22 this year. "

"Those Years" has achieved a super eye-catching result of breaking the 100 million yuan box office in one month. In an interview, director Wei Wu expressed his gratitude to the audience for their love and support, and urged everyone to continue to support the new film "Silver Driver" released during the National Day. "

"Those Years" has so far exceeded 100 million yuan and has become the third place in the box office this year. It is still in theaters. It is expected that the final box office will exceed "Huo Yuanjia" and "The Da Vinci Code" and officially ascend to the throne of the annual box office champion. ”

“The success of the low-budget movies Lost on Journey and Those Years not only made director Wei Wu famous, but also attracted much attention to the producer Weiguo Pictures. The reporter of Daily Economic News learned that Wei Wu currently holds more than 95% of the company's shares, and has gained both fame and fortune and become the biggest winner behind the scenes. ”

“According to our reporter, the director of the most popular movie Those Years, Wei Wu, and the heroine Liu Yifei, officially started living together in Wei Wu's newly purchased villa in Yanjing the day after the movie was released. The talented man and the beautiful woman may be about to get married. ”

…

The most sensational thing in the current entertainment industry is that the low-budget youth film "Those Years" has officially broken the 100 million yuan box office.

As of July 29, "Those Years" received another 940,000 yuan in box office revenue that day, and the cumulative box office revenue after 29 days of release officially exceeded the 100 million yuan mark to reach 101.7 million yuan.

Wei Wu officially joined the 100 million yuan director club and became a new star in the mainland famous director circle.

You should know that Wei Wu is only 22 years old this year, and he has already made a movie with a box office of over 100 million yuan, and is about to win the box office champion of this year. It can be said that it is eye-catching!

After all, youth is the biggest asset. Zhang Yimou was born in 1950, Chen Kaige was born in 1952, and Feng Xiaogang was born in 1958.

Even the youngest Feng Xiaogang is 26 years older than Wei Wu, who was born in 1984.

Even in the eyes of many people, Chen Kaige, whose godhood is unstable now, and Feng Xiaogang, who does not have top hard currency awards, are not even worthy of continuing. Continue to be Wei Wu's challenge goal.

With his current momentum, it is obvious that he is going for Zhang Yimou!

Although Wei Wu has not won any awards yet, his ability and level are obvious to all, and have been generally recognized by the audience and industry insiders.

After all, he is still so young, and he still has at least 40 years of professional life, and there are still plenty of opportunities to win awards in the future.

When he reaches the age of Zhang, Chen and Feng, he must have been honored and become the leader of the industry! I guess the worst case scenario is slightly better than Feng Xiaogang and Chen Kaige now!

So recently, Wei Wu has been overwhelmed by praise. Even if he is a second-generation man and his heart is tempered into steel, Wei Wu feels a little flattered and walks with a little wind.

This time it was Liu Tianxian's turn to mock him:

"Oh, didn't someone say that I was conceited before, and I specifically looked for comments on the Internet that others praised myself!

"Why are you like this now? Is this what they call: the pot calling the kettle black?"

Wei Wu deliberately sneered: "Okay, now you've become a big star in both film and television, and the top actress in domestic entertainment TV dramas, you're starting to demolish your bridges, right?

"If I had known, I would have insisted and not let you succeed so easily. Since you coaxed and deceived me to sleep with you, you've revealed your true colors. Why don't you just stop pretending, right?"

Liu Tianxian was furious: "Ah? You're also going to turn the tables and confuse right and wrong, right? Who is deceiving whom? Can you have some shame?

"Okay, since you said so, then don't come into my room tonight! I've been wanting to sleep alone in this hot day, it's cool!"

"Look, you're anxious again," Wei Wu hurriedly pulled her hand with a playful smile and said:

"Isn't I joking with you? Adjust the atmosphere. Don't get angry all the time, beautiful lady, or you might get wrinkles..."

In fact, this is not the first time Wei Wu has done this. What he likes to do most every day is to tease her on purpose, and then come over to coax her with a playful smile.

Every time Liu Tianxian would be soft-hearted, it can be said that she was completely controlled by this combo.

But today, even though Wei Wu apologized, Liu Tianxian was still a little angry, so she punched Wei Wu's chest twice, which was considered to be venting the anger in her heart!

Although he was punched twice, Wei Wu did not suffer any loss. He directly pulled her over and kissed her delicate and red lips fiercely, which was considered to be getting some interest back!

After they separated, Liu Tianxian couldn't help but glare at Wei Wu fiercely, and of course secretly cursed herself for being useless, after all, they had lived together for a month.

But now that he kissed her like this, she still felt her heart beating violently, her whole body was soft and numb, and she felt hot from her chest to her cheeks.

You, you are an old couple, so why are you still so useless? When will you stand up?

After complaining for a while, Liu Tianxian suddenly took out a novel from the bedside table. The cover was printed with slogans such as:

The original novel of the movie "Those Years", strongly recommended by Wei Wu.

Liu Tianxian pointed to the cover of the book and said, "It says Shuguo Culture Publishing Company, so is this book published by your company?"

Wei Wu nodded and said, "Yes, I bought a publishing company before and changed its name, and I bought out all the copyrights of "Those Years"!

"Now Jiubadao has only two copyrights left, which are the royalties of simplified Chinese and traditional Chinese in Taiwan.

"In other words, except for the royalties from selling books on the island, all other copyrights have nothing to do with him!"

Liu Tianxian said happily, "Then you are making a fortune. I heard that the monthly sales of this novel have exceeded 800,000 copies!"

In fact, this is not surprising. It is no longer a new thing for movies to drive novel sales. Last year, "The Promise", a bad movie, sold 700,000 copies of the novel of the same name!

What's more, "Those Years" was originally a bestseller. Driven by the hot movie, the sales volume is naturally exaggerated!

Wei Wu nodded: "Well, the current price of our single-volume edition is 25 yuan, and the hardcover edition is 40 yuan. The final sales volume must be at least two to three million copies, not to mention the share of the author. The final income is estimated to be conservatively estimated to be 30 to 40 million!"

Now "Those Years" is really popular, and even a wave of youth films has been set off.

It is said that in the past month, at least 30 or more youth campus-themed movies and TV series have been officially launched in Hengdian.

In addition, there are many film and television companies waving money to buy scripts of the same theme.

Thanks to the popularity of "Those Years", not only the sales of the novel of the same name "Those Years" have soared, but even other novels with youth campus themes have also seen a surge in sales this month.

And the prices of the film and television adaptation rights of those youth campus novels are also rising sharply!

For example, Ming Xiaoxi's "Summer of Bubbles" and "Ming Ruo Xiaoxi", the film and television adaptation rights are now being bid by many companies.

Of course, the same treatment also went to Rao Xueman's "Left Ear" published last year, and Gu Man's "Why Sheng Xiaomo" just released this year.

But when everyone went there, they found out that they had come to nothing. It turned out that the film and television adaptation rights of these two novels had long been quietly acquired by Weiguo Films!

"Hey, why did you just buy out the copyrights on Taiwan Island at once? After all, this movie is now popular on the other side of the strait, and it is estimated that the novel can sell hundreds of thousands of copies!"

Wei Wu shook his head and said, "That would be a bit too ugly! And Jiubadao's identity as a Taiwanese will also help this novel achieve higher sales in Taiwan Island in disguise.

"And the more popular this novel is in Taiwan Island, the better it is for me! Because next month, our movie will be taken off the screen in the mainland, and then it will be released simultaneously in Taiwan Island and Hong Kong Island.

"Although I can't earn royalties from Taiwan Island, I can harvest a wave of box office revenue!"

The reason why Wei Wu had to wait for two months instead of releasing it simultaneously on both sides of the strait and in Hong Kong was definitely not to give pirates a chance.

It is because it takes a certain amount of time for fame to ferment and spread. If it is released directly, the box office in Hong Kong and Taiwan will not be particularly ideal.

So we have to let "Those Years" break 100 million in the mainland first, and it must also win the annual box office championship.

Then, with the golden signboard of the annual box office champion of mainland movies to promote, the audience in Hong Kong and Taiwan may look at it with a higher eye, and then the enthusiasm for watching movies will be much better!

You should know that in the previous life, the movie "Those Years" won a box office of 410 million Taiwan dollars in Taiwan, which is about 85.78 million yuan. It is the third best-selling Chinese-language film in Taiwan's film history, and of course the champion of the annual Chinese-language film.

And it is also a hit in Hong Kong Island, with a final box office of 61.86 million Hong Kong dollars, surpassing "Kung Fu" to become the best-selling Chinese-language film in Hong Kong's film history at that time.

It can be said that the box office performance of "Those Years" in Hong Kong and Taiwan is much stronger than that in the mainland!

Of course, if it is released in Hong Kong and Taiwan now, the box office will definitely not reach the height of the previous life. Especially in Taiwan Island, after all, the director and the leading actors of this movie are all mainland actors, and people are unlikely to buy it.

It is definitely unrealistic to want to win the championship again, but at least it should not be a problem to be among the top five of the year, and at worst it will not fall out of the top ten.

In fact, the box office is not that important. After all, Wei Wu has already made a lot of money from the box office share in the mainland.

Even before the movie was released, the cost was recovered by selling the movie music album!

But what he cares more about is that if this movie can open up the situation in Hong Kong and Taiwan, then Wei Wu’s signboard will be established!

In the future, when promoting it, it can be said with confidence that Wei Wu’s works have a certain influence in both sides of the Taiwan Strait and Hong Kong and Taiwan!

Relying on the Hong Kong and Taiwan markets, it can radiate to the entire Southeast Asia and Japan and South Korea, which will also facilitate him to buy and sell copyrights overseas, and the price can be higher.

Wei Wu’s goal is definitely not limited to being the king in the mainland, but to go out and become an international director.

Hong Kong and Taiwan are just his appetizers. The next stop is Southeast Asia, Japan and South Korea and even all of Asia, and then steadily operate with Asia as the base, and gradually spread the influence to the world.

As long as Those Years can sell well in Hong Kong and Taiwan, the price of the overseas copyright of Painted Skin will inevitably rise, and the chances of recovering the cost will be even greater!

In fact, it is difficult for commercial blockbusters to recover their costs if they rely solely on box office revenue, so they must rely on the sales of overseas copyrights.

If this weak link can be made up, Weiguo Films will have the confidence to try to launch some big productions!
