No matter how excited Yao Yuanqian is, he is still over fifty after all, not the young boy in his twenties and thirties.
At this age, there are already a lot of minor ailments, and if you stay up late, you will have to deal with them for several days.
The two of them chatted on the phone for an hour, and it came to an end at four in the morning.
"Okay, there are also industry projects invested by Great Wall Film and Television in Beautiful Country. I will arrange for someone to come to your company - if you have anything to do, just give me direct instructions for errands and cars. You only need to concentrate on doing your own work.
thing."
"Commercial films? Commercial films are just commercial films. If you don't have enough money, just tell me and Uncle Yao will transfer it to you directly!"
"I heard that your studio has signed an actor named Hu Chang on loan? Are you preparing a movie?"
"I forgot to tell you that the original team of this film was unwilling to sell Xia Yu Studio, but I bought it - privately!"
"You want to praise this actor named Hu Chang? Do you want Uncle Yao to help you?"
"Oh, by the way, where do you live in Los Angeles? Do you have a house? I have a villa in Beverly Hills. I will arrange for someone to transfer it to your name when I leave tomorrow. Don't worry, no one has lived in it. I will buy it.
If you invest in it, it means it is empty. You celebrated your birthday on the show this year, and Uncle Yao didn't even have time to give you a gift. Now that your new company has been established, uncle will give you a gift, so don't refuse."
Yao Yuanqian bought the script and hired the crew. Xia Yu couldn't laugh or cry, but for her, there was no other problem - Yao Yuanqian's idea was simple. Since Xia Yu's studio was optimistic about the script, then the script would definitely be good.
.
To Hu Chang, Xia Yu said, "Where is the need for your giant Buddha? Sister Tang has a plan and needs Uncle Yao's help. We will definitely tell you."
But Xia Yu really can't accept this house. Xia Yu basically doesn't worry about things like the house.
Money? I will have everything I should have, but it is a gift from others, as the saying goes.
"When you treat others with courtesy, you must ask for something!"
A villa in Beverly Hills costs 20 to 30 million at least, but 40 to 50 million more expensive. How can it be worse than what Yao Yuanqian likes?
Xia Yuzhen accepted it. If Yao Yuanqian asked her for something in the future, would she help or not?
As for cooperation with Great Wall Film and Television? That is only cooperation with Great Wall Film and Television, not Yao Yuanqian. Now is not the time to negotiate.
Yao Yuanqian was really regretful and regretful that Xia Yu did not accept this great gift. He was not afraid of Xia Yu accepting it, but he was afraid that Xia Yu would not accept it.
"Then Uncle Yao, I'm waiting for your good news!"
Putting down the phone, Yao Yuanqian's tough face showed a trace of regret, he turned around and said with a smile, "How about you, Yan Jingdan, Wei Fei and others can't compete with Xia Yu? If this lucrative business is offered to you, can you refuse?"
If Yao Yuanqian really wanted to keep Yan Jingdan, would he be able to keep him? It's just that he and you, Yan Jingdan, can't do it.
In other words, now Xia Yu can bring huge benefits to Yao Yuanqian, but one day, a more suitable person will appear, and Xia Yu no longer has such high benefit value, Xia Yu will be the next Yan Jingdan.
"You can cooperate with capital, but never be completely sincere to capital!"
This is an important lesson that Tao Tang taught Xia Yu using the lessons of film and television in the prosperous Tang Dynasty.
"Tired!" Xia Yu put down the phone. It was obviously not a hard job, but it was much more tiring than her hour of exercise.
But the matter that needs to be dealt with is finally finished. Zhuang Ling has been listening to it for half an hour.
"Beverly Hills, a villa, reject it just because you say no? Tsk, I really want to crack your head open and see what you really think. Do you really treat money like dirt? You are a role model for our generation!" Zhuang Ling
Holding the manuscript in hand, he was amazed.
"What do you think? Senior sister, you probably can't see it anymore. You can only see a pile of brains, but I advise you not to do this-"
"You still want to change the topic?"
"Hiss, you guessed it!"
…
At noon the next day, it was only September 1st in the beautiful country, and the first-day box office of "Trafficking Crime" was officially released.
Xia Yu didn't really have high hopes at first, but the box office on the first day was over 59 million, which really exceeded her prediction.
Compared with the commercial blockbusters of the same period, the highest one was 30 million higher.
First day box office champion, win!
As soon as the box office came out, Dai Chengbi called Xia Yu. He couldn't believe it, "I also thought that the box office on the first day would be at most 20 million. Didn't this catch people by surprise? I originally thought that this movie could make back its money.
, I’m very satisfied!”
"Now it seems that there is a lot of fun in sitting around and looking at ten people!"
Dai Chengbi doesn’t think this movie is inferior to Cure. In fact, this movie is even more mature.
But the box office thing is a metaphysical issue, right?
Many stocks that others are optimistic about have pounced on them, while many stocks that others are not optimistic about have exploded, all because of market feedback.
But who cares about the box office? He can't make any money, but having one more box-office hit movie on his industry resume will undoubtedly have a big impact.
As for breaking two billion?
Then it's really impossible.
Xia Yu fights against the box office alone, and I don’t know about commercial films.
But an art film?
Disaster!
Maybe less than one-tenth of the people who go to the box office for Cheng Zhiqing?
Zhuang Ling on the side analyzed, "I'm not surprised by this achievement. Xia Yu has made so many movies, and the average rating in a certain category is above 8.5. The reputation has long been deeply rooted in the hearts of the people, not to mention your fans.
There are many and the nationality is high.”
"And don't forget, Cheng Zhiqing's performance in "The Wind" is indeed worthy of his reputation as an experienced actor."
"There is also the blessing of the Venice Film Festival, the Golden Rooster Award, and most importantly, the blessing of a phenomenal variety show!"
"Oh, I seem to have forgotten that you broke another big news today - don't tell me, I even doubted whether you were the one who specially found someone to break the news." Zhuang Ling pretended to look at Xia Yu with questioning eyes.
.
Xia Yu touched his chin, "Don't tell me, even I doubt myself - there must be a dual personality controlling me to reveal the news."
Until November 7th, Gu Zhao's call still did not come through to Xia Yu's mobile phone.
Xia Yu must be lying when he said he didn't hesitate, and Zhuang Ling also prepared for the worst.
"Wait until the middle of the month. If there is no news from Gu Zhao in the middle of the month, then I think we should adopt plan B. Wait until the end of this month at the latest. If Gu Zhao brings bad news at the end of the month, we are not completely without news.
Prepare!"
Xia Yu is confident, but not blindly confident. What happened this time really caught him off guard——
"If the worst outcome predicted by senior sister is really fulfilled, then just listen to senior sister. If Victoria Pictures is not good, Mindley Pictures is also a good choice. I just don't know what Mindley Pictures' appetite is.
"
Early morning on the 8th.
The box office of "Trafficking" is released for its first week.
【5961.3(10,000)】
【7112.9(10,000)】
【121.115(million)】
【7334.1(10,000)】
【33.398(million)】
【31.661(million)】
【51.918(million)】
The movie is released for a week.
As of the early morning of November 8th, China time, the actual box office of "Trafficking Crime" reached 442.175 million.
After all, "Trafficking" failed to exceed everyone's expectations, and ultimately failed to reach the heights of "The Cure".
The box office of "The Cure" in its first week was 868.88 million, and it still ranks first in China's first week box office.
This is a box office miracle that even "Black Moon Project·1" cannot shake.
However, the first week performance of "Crime" perfectly met the goals of several parties. It is not comparable to "The Cure", and it is also far behind "Black Moon Project 1: Ancient Eastern Kingdom" which was just released in October, but it is better than "The Wind"
》Slightly higher, nearly 200 million higher.
However, the box office trend is not as good as "The Wind", which continues to rise. On Friday, the box office of "Sin" almost fell below 30 million, and it only increased again on Saturday. The estimated box office for the second week is difficult to exceed
First week.
The box office in the second week also proved this point.
【4811.1(10,000)】
【4416.6(10,000)】
【3911.1(10,000)】
【3311.0(10,000)】
【2219.9(10,000)】
【2311.1(ten thousand)】
【2541.6(10,000)】
As of midnight on Sunday of the second week, the box office this week was 235.114 million.
The box office in the two weeks after its release totaled 677,289,000 [677,289,000].
The box office gradually declined, and in the second week it was overtaken twice by a certain commercial blockbuster in the same period. In the end, it won the box office championship in the second week with a box office of 300,000 more than the second highest box office movie.
The box office is gradually sluggish, but the reputation has not dropped but has risen, and certain ratings have been rising.
There are more than 300,000 user ratings, among which 54.8% have five-star rating, 37.5% have four-star rating, 7.1% have three-star rating, and 2-star plus one star rating
Up to 0.5 percent - Rating 8.9!
But to be honest, Great Wall Film and Television was very satisfied with this box office. If Xia Yu hadn't been in the beautiful country, Yao Yuanqian would have given him a celebration party. The total investment of this movie was only 80 million, and it was only 80 million on the third day of its release.
God returns to his roots.
Profits started on the fourth day, that is to say, the money earned from the fourth day last week until the release is part of the profit!
Moreover, this film has won multiple heavyweight awards, and its subject matter has also been praised by Chinese officials. When we talk about "Kidnapper", we cannot do without this excellent film "Trafficking Crime".
The crew and investors are all satisfied, but the "keyboard warriors" on the Internet are not satisfied.
And the hot searches have gradually changed in flavor.
[Xia Yu’s ability to resist box office declines!]
[The next week's box office for "Trafficking" hit a new low for Xia Yu's movies!]
But these "I don't know" how to get to the top of the hot search topics are still spread widely!
Almost the entire Internet is hotly discussing Xia Yu's two box office miracles, hotly discussing the box office performance of "Black Moon Project 1" and "The Wind" last month, with good word-of-mouth success, and the continued decline in the box office of "Trafficking Crime"
, the topic of the huge gap in itinerary.
For a whole day, the entire Internet was in an uproar, all filled with "admonitions" directed at Xia Yu!
[The box office of "Trafficking" continues to decline, and it is expected that in the third week, it will be difficult to secure the weekly box office championship - I have to doubt that if it hadn't been hotly discussed on the Internet for two months, or if it weren't for Xia Yu's popularity after winning the Venice Film Festival, it wouldn't be
The popularity of "Nice to Meet You" may not reach this level at the box office in the first week. Compared with "The Wind", which has almost zero promotion, the revenue brought by the topic of "Trafficking Crime" is not proportional!]
[If this topic is focused on "The Wind", the box office of the movie "The Wind" will at least exceed 2 billion, and maybe it can reach 3 billion in one fell swoop!]
[Does this mean that Xia Yu's era of box office dominance is over? The final box office of "Trafficking Crime" may not exceed 1 billion? Or even 800 million? Maybe it won't even make it into the top ten at the box office this year? 】
[Those fans who advocate that Xia Yu is the hope of the Chinese film industry, I think they can really restrain themselves. No one can achieve a true "box office everlasting". Xia Yu's prospects are still very good, and he won a Venice Best Actress
, but whether it can break through itself is unknown!】
[It is recommended to keep a low profile. Since his comeback, Xia Yu has always been self-proclaimed as a low-key person. He has always maintained a posture of "I just don't show up in the public eye" and "I just don't let you know what I do besides filming." But all year round,
More than half of the hot searches are about her. Do these hot searches appear for nothing? Do you think there is nothing fishy about it? Isn’t this a contradiction in terms?]
[It is recommended to keep a low profile 1. An actor should still pay attention to his own profession. I also know that at the age of twenty-seven, he has won so many awards and is already very good. But the real actors, Wei Jihong, Wei Fei, Yan Jingdan, Cheng Zhiqing,
Are Feng Miao, Cheng Yun, and Yu Junhao as popular as Xia Yu all year round? They are the ones who are really serious about their careers!]
They are all "nice" words.
From the perspective of a passerby, even if he has a good impression of Xia Yu, he cannot be called a fan. In the understanding of a "passerby fan".
[This is all for Xia Yu’s sake. What people said on the Internet seems to be true, right? 】
But these ambiguous words contain a demeaning and meaningful admonishment!
If others want to spray, it's not easy for them to spray.
[Why are you scolding me? Am I wrong? I am also a fan of Xia Yu, and I do it for her own good!]
After Zhuang Ling read it, he had only one comment: a group of well-organized, capable, and educated sailors.
When Dai Chengbi called Xia Yu, he was extremely angry, "A bunch of keyboard warriors who like to teach others!"
He even joined the "frontline scolding" lineup, but unfortunately, how could he be the opponent of those trolls?
"Why do you care about them? It's a waste of effort. If you have time, you should think about how to make the next movie?"
"How to shoot what? I was tricked by these people. If the movie is released, these people will make fun of me again - Dai Chengbi, the best Silver Lion director in Venice, made a commercial chick movie. I just thought about it.
It’s going to be a myocardial infarction!”
"So you don't want to shoot anymore?"
Since Yao Yuanqian revealed that Hu Chang had bought the script rights for the chick flick he was about to take on, Xia Yu simply made peace with it.
"How about letting Lao Dai try it?"
We have to add Xie Guanhui to let these two brothers in trouble try their hand at commercial movies.
Don’t just focus on one category or all kinds of movies, you still have to give it a try to gain experience.
This was something I told the old man. The old man thought for a moment and said.
