The Strongest Life Reborn

On the second day of the Huo family's wedding thank-you banquet, the one-week box office of "Watching Seven Days" came out.

In the first week of "Watch against Seven Days", the box office score was 2.45 million, ranking fifth in the box office of Xiangjiang this year's movie.

It seems that this result is very good, but if you know that the box office on the first day of "Watch against Seven Days" directly broke through 850,000, and once again broke the 820,000 Xiangjiang single-day box office record created by "Sale. Personal Deed", I know that this week's box office results are purely average.

The box office on the first day was so hot, half of the reason was due to the good reputation of "Expressing the Wrong Seven Days", and the other half was also thanks to the stars of "Wulin Gaiden".

The first day's box office is Tuesday's data. It stands to reason that even in the next few days, it will drop a bit, but if the word of mouth is good, there will be a wave of rebounds on Saturday and Sunday.

But looking at the box office of these 2.45 million in the first week, it is obvious that the results of the decline all the way, not even a little recovery.

This is the general performance of word of mouth.

On the day when the results came out, the Jiahe Cinema Line and other cinemas directly announced the reduction of the cinema line support of "Watch against Seven Days", leaving only 15 cinemas in total, which is almost the same as the 25 in the first week. Cut in half.

In stark contrast to "Watching Seven Days", "Drunken Fist" has been released for two weeks.

The second week of "Drunken Fist" coincides with the first week of "Watching Seven Days".

"Drunken Boxing" has a box office of HK $ 2.82 million in the first week. Of course, it is impossible to break through the first week's results in the second week, but its 2.46 million box office results in the second week are still blinding many people's eyes. .

This result not only helped "Drunken Boxing" beat "Watch against Seven Days Love" and became the champion of this week, but also created the second smallest box office score in Xiangjiang's history-second only to "Table Error Seven" "Love".

But in the second week of "The Wrong Seven Days", the number of movie theaters was increased, and in the second week of "Drunken Fist", there were 3 movie theaters reduced!

In this way, the results of "Drunken Fist" are even better than "Seven Wrong Love"!

Without saying anything, Jiahe added all the 3 movie theaters that were withdrawn from "Watching Seven Days" to the "Drunken Fist" screening.

Guan Shan did not hold back at this time. In fact, he started to contact the movie distributors outside the city three days ago, hoping to sell "Watch to Seven Days Love" to them at a good price.

Before "Watch against Seven Days Love" was released, everyone was chasing the cardigan and wanted to buy the distribution rights of foreign ports, but three days after "Watch against Seven Days Love" was released, these old rivers and lakes could see 》 In fact, the quality is average, and there are not many advantages, so they are not in a hurry.

If it were n’t for the good reputation of “The Wrong Seven-Day Love” and the guest appearances of the stars of “Wulin Gaiden”, which is popular all over Asia, the audiences in Asian countries have high expectations. Seven Days Love.

Even if it is now necessary to sell foreign copyrights, the price is simply not the original price, at most half of the previous, or even less.

Jiahe is even more indifferent to the hoodie. In fact, Jiahe was not very interested in "Watching Seven Days" at the beginning.

The jersey was in a hurry, and Jiahe offered a buyout price of 1.5 million.

Guan Shan immediately dropped the door, he felt that this price tag was an insult to himself-"The wrong seven days" global box office is more than 60 million Hong Kong dollars, you Jiahe earned a lot of money in it, actually give me now The price of the sequel is only 1.5 million, which is too insulting!

But when he summed up his opinions, he found that even the prices given by all the foreign publishers were only 2.3 million Hong Kong dollars, which is the price that was obtained through hard work. It may be even higher, as the cumulative box office of "Watch against Seven Days" continues to decrease, it will be even lower.

So, after the one-week box office of "Watching the Seven Days" came out, the sweater was full of grievances. They signed copyright sales contracts with seven or eight publishers for a total price of 2.3 million Hong Kong dollars.

Guan Shan's investment in "Watch to Seven-Day Love" reached 1 million Hong Kong dollars, more than double the original cost of less than 400,000.

For this reason, he even asked Zhang Bingqian to borrow money from his family to shoot.

It should be said that during the production, the cardigan is not a rough-made, and many scenes and content that he should have, he still willing to spend money.

Of course, according to the estimates of market participants, the total box office of Xiangjiang in "Watching Seven Days" should be around 4 million.

With these 4 million results, "Watch to Seven Days Love" will definitely be able to pay back in Xiangjiang, and there is no problem even earning more than 1 million. Compared with the input and output ratio of "Watching Seven Days Love", That would be too much difference.

Guan Shan was very disappointed, and felt that the cinema line was not enough to support. Everyone's eyes were too picky ... and so on, which led to the failure of "Face to Seven Days".

But he never thought about it. If it were n’t for his gimmicks like “The Sequel to the Seven Days of Wrong Show” and “The Wings of Martial Arts”, the first week might not even have 1 million.

Old-fashioned stories, unconventional plot conflicts, vulgar sensationalism, hypocritical and rigid acting ... These shortcomings are simply not the qualities of a good show.

Guan Shan is very unhappy, but Zhang Bingqian is very happy.

The profit income of the local port of "Watch against Seven Days" is about 1.2 million, plus the net profit of the foreign port of 2.3 million, that is 3.5 million.

Guan Shan promised to give half to the family, that is 1.75 million, and Zhang Bingqian still had about 700,000 in his hand. This time he lent the Guan Shan to film a part, and the capital will naturally be refunded, so there will be 2.5 million .

Guan family has a small villa and a car, and the rest is some households. Such a large sum of money is enough for the family to live comfortably.

Different from the Guan family, they have different sorrows and joys. The new Kung Fu star Cheng Long is immersed in joy.

As soon as the box office results of "Drunken Fist" came out in the second week, Luo Wei immediately called Cheng Long and told him to go home after a break. The company was going to open a new play for him and tried to win him again.

If it were changed before, Cheng Long would be grateful to Luo Wei for Dade. Without saying anything, he would say, "I have rested enough and I can start a new play immediately."

But now, Cheng Long's thinking has changed.

The first comes from Luo Wei's stinginess.

In 1976, Cheng Long returned from Australia and Luo Wei signed a three-year contract. Luo Wei agreed to Cheng Long at the time. In addition to a fixed salary every month, each drama was given to Cheng Long 3000 Hong Kong dollars.

This kind of salary is definitely very cheap for the stars of Xiangjiang, but for Cheng Long, who has been reduced to working on the Australian construction site, it is already a very high price.

So Cheng Long readily agreed, and worked very hard to make dozens of movies for Luo Wei in about two years.

These movies have made some profits, but Luo Wei still paid Cheng Long 3000 yuan according to the agreement. Cheng Long's small life was pretty good.

This year Wu Siyuan borrowed Cheng Long to film, on the condition that Cheng Long helped him film two plays, one for Luo Wei for 100,000.

Luo Wei has lost confidence in Cheng Long now, and no more than a dozen movies have become red. Is this guy unable to support Adou?

So seeing that he can earn 200,000, Luo Wei of course agreed.

As a result, the first "Snake-Shaped Hand" sold 2.7 million, Wu Siyuan earned more than 600,000, and Cheng Long also emerged.

Seeing that he earned too much, Wu Siyuan directly gave him 50,000 in order to establish a good relationship with Cheng Long.

Cheng Long honestly gave the money to Luo Wei first. As a result, Luo Wei only took 3000 as a dividend, which was equivalent to the price of Cheng Long's extra film.

Cheng Long didn't say anything at the time, but he felt a little uncomfortable.

As the saying goes, you do n’t know the height without comparison.

After two consecutive films with Wu Siyuan, Cheng Long felt that Wu Siyuan and Yuan Heping gave them a lot of room to play, and they paid great attention to their opinions.

But Luo Wei is different. Basically, Luo Wei said what he would do. Cheng Long's opinion had no effect at all.

That's all.

But the other aspect of the contradiction lies in Jia He's He Guanchang's pursuit of Cheng Long.

Who is He Guanchang in the film industry?

That's almost the carrying handle of Ding!

Except for a few people, no one is deeper than his qualifications and prestige.

He not only greeted Cheng Long, but also pointed out various opinions on many of Cheng Long ’s movie details. He often invited Cheng Long to dinner and talked with him about the direction of world movies. Cheng Long felt that such an elder was very caring, so he Like his own father.

Cheng Long was sent by his parents to the Huaguo Drama Research Institute in Yuzhanyuan. He grew up and was only received by his parents in Australia. He returned to Xiangjiang within a few months. It can be said that his relationship with his parents is not so deep. He basically lives on his own, and the same generation of brothers and siblings can speak on weekdays.

Suddenly there was such an affable big figure to care for himself, and Cheng Long was moved.

Most importantly, He Guanchang deserves him.

Before the release of "Drunken Fist", He Guanchang took a 1 million check to Cheng Long and asked him to go to Jiahe to make a movie. The cancellation fee with Luo Wei was entirely the responsibility of Jiahe and he did not need to worry about it.

Although Cheng Long returned the cheque under the persuasion of Chen Zhiqiang, comparing He Guanchang with Luo Wei, Cheng Long felt that the gap was a bit big.

Anyone who is under the circumstance of being able to break out of the sky does not want to follow a stingy boss. This is a great disrespect for his hard work.

The difference between 3000 and 1 million, as long as one person can understand.

The second reason for the change in Cheng Long's thoughts lies in the gap between Golden Harvest and Luo Wei Film Company.

Luo Wei Film Company is a small film company. Like Siyuan Film Company, they are all related companies that rely on Jiahe for dinner.

Not only is Golden Harvest larger than the Luo Wei Film Company, but people also have their own cinemas, have their own studios, and have more professionals.

Regardless of which aspect, Golden Harvest has a promising future than Luowei Film Company.

He Guanchang also assured Cheng Long that as long as Cheng Long passed, Jiahe would make at least three movies for him every year, and the capital would not be capped.

In addition, each movie respects Cheng Long ’s opinions and is led by him. Jiahe is only responsible for providing funds, personnel, venues, etc. In addition to the fixed pay, he will also give him 10% of the Xiangjiang box office as a share.

Making movies in such a large-scale, ambitious company will undoubtedly enable Cheng Long's dream of surpassing Li Xiaolong to be further realized.

Then there is one more thing about Yin Jun.

Cheng Long already knew that "The Seven Days of Mistake" was written by Yin Jun. For the young man who had dinner together, Cheng Long appreciated it very much. He thought he was talented and polite. A rough man who has written a book can also be sure that he is capable and productive, which is worth being a friend.

Watching Yin Jun write so many best-selling movies and TV scripts, Cheng Long has no doubt about Yin Jun's screenwriting ability.

Jiahe also told Cheng Long that if he felt it was necessary, Jiahe would spare no expense and asked Yin Jun to write at least one movie for Cheng Long every year, which would not only make him famous in Xiangjiang but also famous all over the world.

This is in line with Cheng Long's dream of surpassing Li Xiaolong. UU reading www. uukanshu.com

After the box office hit "Drunken Fist", Cheng Long sometimes had dreams during this time, and he could dream that he had filmed the script written by Yin Jun, and then became a world superstar.

When he woke up, Cheng Long all woken up with a smile.

So, with so many factors, Cheng Long seemed less enthusiastic about Luo Wei's eagerness to make a movie.

No matter when the film is made, Cheng Long has already made a decision. For his own future, he will not renew the contract with Luo Wei.

I, there should be a wider world!

Cheng Long thinks so, just as many people think so.

At the box office results of the second week, Luo Wei first called Cheng Long, and the second one came to Wu Siyuan.

Wu Siyuan didn't say much, and thanked Cheng Long for shooting two films for himself, and then took out two stacks of golden bulls from the bag and handed it to Cheng Long.

Cheng Long scratched his head: "Brother Yuan, you are ..."

"Along, hold it! You earned so much money for Brother Yuan, this is what you deserve." Wu Siyuan said with a smile, "It's just that you don't give it to Awei so stupidly, otherwise it will be time They can only get 3,000 yuan of hard work. "

Cheng Long was stunned for a while, and was a little embarrassed.

Wu Siyuan gave Cheng Long 50,000 last time to shoot "Snake-Shaped Hand", but after Cheng Long gave Luo Wei, Luo Wei only gave him 3000 yuan.

Cheng Long wasn't a person who was telling other people gossip behind his back. After smiling, he took the money and said nothing.

After the chat between the two ended and Cheng Long left first, Wu Siyuan smiled and called downstairs to go out.

"Brother Chang, I've given the money. We can wait to watch the show."

"It's hard work."

There was a suppressed voice over the phone.
