Eight hundred and thirtieth chapters get all effortless
After Zhou Dongsheng finished sharing his impressions, the host also said with a smile.
"Our Principal Wang also came to the scene today. I wonder if Principal Wang has any different opinions on Director Zhou's statement?"
As the camera turned, Principal Wang wearing a hat appeared in a low-key manner. Facing the camera, Principal Wang, who had come to cheer, was not restrained and took the microphone from the staff with a smile.
"Now I kind of regret not agreeing to Director Wu. They are both making their debut on the screen. Why is there such a big gap..." Principal Wang joked humorously, and the audience couldn't help but burst into laughter.
I'm afraid of comparison in everything. Compared with the previous role of Principal Wang as his true character and the guest role in "A Little Smile Is Alluring", the role of Zhou Dongsheng is undoubtedly much more outstanding.
Of course, there is no comparison between the scenes and the time and energy required. This is undoubtedly one of the main reasons for Principal Wang's rejection.
"We all know that Principal Wang is called the 'National Husband' by many netizens, and Jay Chou is also a strong contender for this title, and today our director Wu's junior brother Peng Yuyan also came to the scene..."
"Three types of husbands compete on the same stage. There will always be one you like. The audience here is really blessed!" The host was very knowledgeable and continued to enhance the atmosphere with a smile, and the effect was remarkable.
There is no doubt that this topic will also become a major focus of the premiere announcement, and in such a joyful atmosphere, this premiere also came to a perfect conclusion.
Until now, everything is ready and all we need is the east wind. The result will be revealed after twelve o'clock tonight, after the movie is released.
No matter how much publicity efforts and efforts have been made before this, it still depends on the market’s feedback. As we all know, the market is Schrödinger’s box. No one can predict whether the cat will live or die before opening it.
Of course, even after it was released, the creative team could not relax. Director Wu also arranged crazy road shows across the country. After all, everything is difficult at the beginning, and the success of the box office basically depends on how well it starts.
After all, there are only a few movies that can rely on word-of-mouth fermentation to counterattack and achieve box office decline. Among the many factors that determine the final box office of a movie, uncontrollable market feedback is excluded.
Within the controllable range, naturally we have to do our best. For this reason, Director Wu naturally does not dare to relax at all, especially the pressure brought by the gamble of 1.5 billion box office...
Despite this, food still had to be eaten, so that night Zhou Dongsheng cooked the meal himself and found a nice place to invite the group to have a casual meal.
"I wish in advance that "Wolf Warrior 2" will be a success and a box office hit! This meal should be regarded as a celebration banquet!" Since Zhou Dongsheng is the host, he naturally sends his sincere blessings.
To be honest, even if we know that it is the calm before the storm, this movie will definitely set off a violent storm in the field of public opinion, but... as for what role I will play in it...
Zhou Dongsheng still felt a bit expectant and uneasy in his heart. After all, this time, he had made many outstanding contributions in this storm. How much substantial impact would it have on the outcome?
The answer to this will naturally come to light as long as the movie is released, and before that Zhou Dongsheng can only wait and see.
After all, compared with the impact of this movie, its box office seems somewhat insignificant, especially since Zhou Dongsheng is only one of the investors behind the movie.
As we all know, the total box office share of a movie generally requires a special business tax of 3%, plus a 5% special fund for the film industry, and the remaining 90% is the shared box office.
Even so, theaters and theater chains still have to divide nearly 60% of the box office, which includes 1-3% of the distribution agency fee of Huaxia Film, which is only about 30% of the box office in the end.
It is actually a vivid interpretation of the line "70% belongs to others, and if you can get 30%, it depends on the other person's face." Moreover, the 30% of the box office is not exclusive to one company, and has to go through another round of subdivision.
Therefore, there is a well-known saying that "the box office needs to be three times the cost to recover the money." It is also the benchmark used by the general public to measure whether a movie is losing money or not.
Calculated in this way, even if history repeats its mistakes, "Wolf Warrior 2" can still dominate the Chinese box office list, and Zhou Dongsheng can obtain investment income from it.
Compared with the rate of return of other investment projects, it can indeed be called "insignificant".
It's just that, as an art popular with the public, film has always been a cultural highland that military strategists must compete for in the field of public opinion. It is precisely because of this status that it has created its particularity in the fame and fortune market.
As for the proportion of the two words "fame and fortune", movies obviously belong to the small group where the former is greater than the latter.
Although Zhou Dongsheng’s original intention of investing in this movie was to be the number one box office player, he tried every possible means to get a piece of the pie, and he would be a bastard if he didn’t make money...
However, as time passed and with the accumulation of wealth, Zhou Dongsheng's thoughts obviously changed quietly, and a hint of enlightenment emerged in his heart.
Perhaps, the so-called chips are not limited to wealth. Wealth may more often play the role of a threshold. Only when this threshold is reached can one get the ticket to the table game.
In the entire game process, wealth may play the same role as the foundation of a pyramid. Although it is important, it is not necessarily the focus of everyone's attention at the poker table.
Although the economic foundation determines the superstructure, once the foundation is laid, the focus of the game will naturally shift upward...
When Zhou Dongsheng realized this, he vaguely felt that he had caught something, but he didn't see it clearly. He just felt that maybe compared with the box office, the benefits this movie could bring in other aspects...
It may be far beyond your expectation!
Thinking of this, Zhou Dongsheng's inner impatience became more and more obvious, and he couldn't wait to see the grand scene of the fire burning.
During the banquet, the group of guests and others were having a good time, and the conversation basically focused on the box office prospects of the movie.
For this reason, Director Wu also said very conservatively: "Actually, I don't have any confidence in my heart. After all, the previous film only had a box office of 600 million. Originally, I expected it to be successful if it exceeded 1 billion..."
"But now with Jay Chou's 1.5 billion box office bet, and even his willingness to personally appear in supporting roles, as well as a series of recent investments in publicity and marketing, it is obvious that he has high expectations for us, and I hope we can live up to them!"
"I believe in Dongsheng's vision. This kid's eyes are so vicious that he will never let himself suffer. Even if the lines are like mountains, I don't think this movie will make him suffer..."
Principal Wang also smiled and raised his glass when he heard this. After all, he had watched the movie and the quality was definitely above the acceptable level. As for the content of the movie, he didn't have much impression.
"But it doesn't matter even if he loses. This guy just earned 600 million US dollars not long ago. This investment income is almost more than my entire net worth. He can afford to lose even a little bit..."
Principal Wang said with a teasing tone, and there seemed to be a hint of envy mixed in, even though he was once the son of the richest man, and he was already unique among the second generation of rich people.
But that still didn't stop him from admiring Zhou Dongsheng's abilities. After all, as the first investor to come into contact with Zhou Dongsheng, he could be said to have witnessed the entire process of Zhou Dongsheng's rise.
Zhou Dongsheng pointed his head confidently in front of him and said, "This alone is worth 50 million..." This scene seemed to be still vivid in his mind. At that time, Principal Wang thought this young man was a bit arrogant.
Now it seems that this statement is obviously too conservative. Even the other "50 million" Liu has become a golden pig in the live broadcast industry, and his net worth has soared.
It was precisely because of witnessing the whole process that it became clearer how valuable Zhou Dongsheng's self-made career was, and Principal Wang was convinced of this.
Even Zhou Dongsheng's current height is unknowingly higher than his own. Perhaps only when he builds the pan-entertainment empire in his mind will he be qualified to be compared with him.
And when Yida was in trouble, to be honest, Principal Wang was still a little excited in his heart. If he could take this opportunity to prove his ability, it might be enough to prove...even if he didn't rely on Yida, he could succeed!
If he could in turn support Yida, or even resolve Yida's crisis, he would be a typical example of someone who excels in his work, and he would completely get rid of the halo of his father's generation!
Of course, this idea only stayed in Principal Wang's heart. No matter how ignorant he was, he also knew how terrifying the cash flow crisis faced by Yida was. Such a huge figure was not something he could solve.
Even Zhou Dongsheng is a drop in the bucket.
Thinking of this, Principal Wang couldn't help but think of his old father's sincere words to him.
"Although Zhou Dongsheng, a young man, comes from a rough background, his vision and structure cannot be underestimated. Being able to make friends with him is also an opportunity for you. At the beginning, I tried to recruit him and train him to become a confidant of You..."
"However, it has now been proven that my original idea was still too naive. How could such a person be willing to be inferior to others? Speaking of which, I also benefited from your boy. This time he did me a big favor..."
"It's human nature to reciprocate with courtesy, and we can't be rude, so let's do what he likes and give him a small gift..."
It has to be said that this recognition from his old father is also a major reason why Principal Wang envies Zhou Dongsheng. Even he himself has never received such a high evaluation from his old father!
For this reason, Principal Wang couldn't help but take a deep look at Zhou Dongsheng, and could only make a few teasing remarks.
As for Principal Wang's joke, everyone at the table could not help but turn their attention to Zhou Dongsheng. Even though he was well-informed in the entertainment industry that was originally known as Vanity Fair, this was not a small amount for them.
Even the vast majority of kings and queens will only acquire approximately this amount of wealth in their lifetime.
So they had no choice but to remain unmoved. Among them, Ni Ni, who was sitting next to Zhou Dongsheng, turned her head, put her hand on her chin, and said with bright eyes: "Chou is so good at investing, whether he takes on financial management projects or not, I will be the first to contribute to the small treasury."
come out……"
As soon as these words came out, many people at the table showed some emotion on their faces. In fact, the distance between investment and the entertainment industry is only a thin line.
After making their first pot of gold in the entertainment industry, many celebrities rely on investments, shares and other methods to further realize their fame, thereby transforming themselves into capital and achieving financial freedom.
It's just that there are specialties in the art, and without the blessing of the star halo, most stars may not be any better than ordinary leeks. At best, they are thicker leeks.
For example, behind Mr. Suffocation, there are many celebrities who have joined him in suffocating his dreams. Perhaps the most typical one is a certain actress surnamed Liu who had to come back to film in order to pay off her husband's debts.
Calculating the time, Mr. Suffocation at this point in time has already embarked on the road of no return of "I am in the United States, I just got off the plane, and I will return to China next week"...
"I don't have this idea at the moment. After all, I have plenty of funds on hand. If I lose money, I will lose my own money, so I don't have any psychological burden..." Zhou Dongsheng said haha and said it.
Seeing this, other people naturally agreed not to mention it, after all, this is human nature.
Anyone who can make money will make a fortune in silence. As for those who offer big packages and express their willingness to help others make a fortune, nine times out of ten they are liars.
Even if you really have that ability, you wouldn't give money to others for no reason, right?
But, there are always exceptions to everything. After all, it is difficult for a hero to be a beauty.
Zhou Dongsheng's expression remained unchanged as he turned sideways and whispered: "I have a privately customized financial management project..."
Ni Ni chuckled, her charming fox eyes making people feel itchy, "Isn't this the kind of big project that costs hundreds of millions? I can't bear it..."
Zhou Dongsheng was slightly startled when he heard this, and then he reacted instantly, and then he couldn't help but smile knowingly. Sure enough, those who can survive in the vanity fair are often not as simple as they appear.
Sure enough, high-end hunters often appear in the form of prey. As for who is the hunter and who is the prey...
That has to be decided by the barrel of a gun.
As the group of people chatted and laughed, the banquet to celebrate the movie's premiere came to an early end.
Subsequently, the creative team had to travel to many places to conduct road shows to further promote the film.
However, sharpening the knife and chopping firewood is a skill. Principal Wang also showed his kindness as a landlord and arranged a hotel for everyone to stay.
After all, our Yida Hotel is not in vain.
While a group of people were waiting on their way to the hotel, Principal Wang pulled Zhou Dongsheng into a car alone.
"What? Do you have anything to say to me alone?" Zhou Dongsheng said absently.
"You're so sexy, right? It's not easy for you. Didn't I say I would give you a gift?"
Principal Wang chuckled. After all, he was also an expert in this field, and they were like-minded in this regard.
"Look at my memory. If you don't tell me, I've forgotten it. Could it be another sports car or something like that?" Zhou Dongsheng patted his head and asked excitedly.
"If it were me, I might give him a sports car, but this gift was ordered by my old man, and he said it was just to suit his needs..."
While talking, Principal Wang fumbled for a document and handed it to Zhou Dongsheng.
Zhou Dongsheng took a closer look and was amused. It turned out to be this thing. This was an unexpected surprise.
"The Wandering Earth" is clearly written on the document header...
