After separating from Ojo Shoji, Nakamura Masahiro went to the office again. He had no intention of inspecting the company, he just wanted to take a look.
After all, it has been leaked that he fell into the earthquake-stricken area. It may be an exaggeration to say that everyone knows about it, but the employees of the office must have known about it.
If we don't come forward to make our presence known, it will be difficult for people in the firm to stabilize their minds. Maybe they are still speculating whether Nakamura Masahiro is in the disaster area?
"President..."
As soon as he entered the door, Nakamura Masahiro met Hashimoto Nanami. He was thinner than the image in his impression, probably because he was tired and didn't get much rest.
"Called President again?"
Nakamura Masahiro raised his eyebrows, and the dissatisfaction in his tone was clearly revealed.
"Hashimoto-san, are you reminding me on purpose?"
"No, no..."
Nana Hashimoto quickly shook her head and denied Nakamura Masahiro's remarks. Feeling slightly panicked, she changed her words in a soft voice: "Nakamura-san."
Kimura Kana, the receptionist at the side, was still eating melon with curious eyes. When she noticed that Nakamura Masahiro's eyes had shifted, she quickly lowered her head and pretended to be busy at work.
"Is everything going well in the office recently?"
Masahiro Nakamura stepped forward, stopped for a moment in the office area, glanced around at the staff who were immersed in their work, and then walked straight to his office.
"Did you encounter any problems that were difficult to deal with?"
"Everything is fine, everything in the office is normal. Some of the more complicated problems were solved smoothly by Senior Oucheng."
"That's good... Zhao Er is familiar with the entertainment industry relatively quickly, and he has met a lot of people with me. If you can't handle it, then you can go to him for help..."
"Well, I understand."
"Remember to pay more attention to rest and don't make yourself too tired...Look at you, you don't even have much flesh on your face, you have lost a lot of weight."
"No way, Nakamura-san..."
"You need to learn how to arrange and distribute work matters. There are so many people in the office, and they can share some of it. If it all falls on you, your small body will not be able to bear it."
"Yes, I will."
Hashimoto Nana responded seriously, her soft and waxy tone was very pleasant, and coupled with the blush on her cheeks, it was quite charming and tempting.
"Okay, Hashimoto-san, go get to work."
Smiling at Nana Hashimoto who was following suit, Nakamura Masahiro dismissed him and then went directly into the president's office.
Although this office has been vacant for a long time, it has been maintained very well in terms of hygiene. It looks clean and tidy, and it shows that it is cleaned every day.
Nakamura Masahiro sat on the chair behind his desk, picked up a pile of documents on the table, looked at it, and then pulled out one.
This is the box office feedback of the movie "A Long Day" in overseas markets. According to statistical data, the overseas results of "A Long Day" are pretty good.
The total box office in Europe was US$12.5 million, and the box office in North America exceeded US$4.7 million. Although there should be some revenue in the future, the overall data will not change much.
After all, it is a low-cost literary film. In addition to the excellent film quality, it also relies on the popularity and influence of the Berlin Film Festival.
According to Nakamura Masahiro's judgment, the film company that purchased the copyright of "One Long Day" must have also invested a lot in distribution and marketing.
Anyway, they have definitely made money, and Nakamura Masahiro is a little envious of their income. Unfortunately, the attractive box office data has nothing to do with Nakamura Masahiro.
The current box office in Japan is 1.213 billion. Due to the impact of the earthquake, the already declining movie box office has worsened, and the market potential has basically bottomed out.
According to Toho's assessment, if there had not been the impact of the earthquake, "One Long Day" would have had a chance to exceed the 1.3 billion box office record.
Unfortunately, that can only be a beautiful fantasy. Because according to Toho's plans and arrangements, "A Long Day" will be released at the end of the month.
The total box office in Hong Kong and Southeast Asia reached HK$13 million. The box office in Taiwan was surprising, exceeding NT$50 million.
The assessment given by Dongbao Company is that there is still a lot of room for growth in the box office. After all, Japanese movies have always been relatively popular in the box office market in Taiwan.
The film quality of "A Long Day" is already excellent, and with the blessing of the Silver Bear Award at the Berlin Film Festival, its performance in the Taiwanese film market can be said to be quite strong.
In addition, "A Long Day" also performed very well in the Korean film market, with a total of more than 800,000 people mobilized.
Calculated based on the average Korean movie ticket price of 10,000 won, the box office of "One Long Day" in South Korea exceeded 8 billion.
After converting the exchange rate, this number is equivalent to more than 7 million U.S. dollars. It is definitely not comparable to the popular movies on the Korean box office list, but for a low-cost imported film, it is already a very good result.
As for the box office results in Mainland China, although there are obviously a large number of moviegoers, the movie box office is only 6.52 million yuan.
The degree of collapse is self-evident. The aura of the Silver Bear Award at the Berlin Film Festival did not have the slightest effect. I don’t know whether it is because the film’s promotion was not done well? Or is it because mainland movie fans just don’t buy it?
From the perspective of memory in his mind, Nakamura Masahiro feels that there are more reasons why movie fans don’t buy it. Of course, the movie’s publicity shouldn’t be very effective either.
Except for the period when ticketing platforms used large-scale money-burning subsidies, the price of movie tickets in the mainland has never been very cheap.
When ordinary people buy tickets, they often prefer big stars or special effects blockbusters, and small costs can easily be lost in them.
"A Long Day" was once again introduced as a film genre. Even with the blessing of the Silver Bear Award at the Berlin Film Festival, its literary and artistic attributes are destined to not attract many audiences.
This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! Based on this analysis, it seems that the box office performance of "One Long Day" is normal. If Masahiro Nakamura becomes famous in the mainland film industry,
Maybe there will be some improvement in terms of box office results.
Just like Hirokazu Kore-eda, who is also a famous Japanese director, even though he has achieved great fame in the world of film circles, before he was familiar with mainland movie fans, the box office performance of his films in the mainland was still poor.
After carefully reading the above box office results and various evaluations given by Toho, Nakamura Masahiro simply superimposed them.
The combined population in Europe and the United States is 17.3 million, the population in Japan is about 16 million, the population in Hong Kong, Taiwan and Southeast Asia is about 3.3 million, the population in South Korea is about 7 million, and the population in mainland China is just over 1 million.
All in all, the global box office of "One Long Day" is close to US$45 million, which seems to be a very impressive figure.
In fact, those are just symbols on paper, and the actual income that can reach Masahiro Nakamura is far less than that much.
The copyrights in Europe, North America and other regions were sold, and the income was US$6 million. In Asia, Toho is responsible for distribution and sales. After deducting taxes, marketing, distribution and other costs and expenses, about 100% of the copyrights can reach the hands of Masahiro Nakamura.
5000000.
There should be some follow-up income in the later period, but the amount distributed to Masahiro Nakamura should not be too large.
As a result, the firm's account funds will reach 11 million US dollars in the future. Once the network copyright, TV copyright, video on demand and peripheral licensing and other income channels are negotiated, the income will surely increase significantly.
No wonder people say that the film industry is hugely profitable. As long as the film is successful, you can make money much faster than robbing a bank.
Suddenly, a cell phone rang. Masahiro Nakamura picked up the phone and looked at the caller ID, and found that it was his mother, Mizuki Fukuda.
"Masahiro, have you returned to Tokyo?"
As soon as the call was connected, the slightly urgent voice of mother Fukuda Mizuki came out, and her words were full of deep concern.
"Is anyone okay? Is he injured?"
"Well, I came back yesterday."
After hesitating for a moment, Nakamura Masahiro replied calmly: "Let's take a rest... I'm fine and safe, there's no problem at all."
Although Fukuda Mizuki is his mother, Nakamura Masahiro still retains a sense of alienation, which makes him very uncomfortable with his mother's close words.
"That's good. Fuchang and I were worried to death when we learned that you suffered an earthquake in Miyagi County..."
Knowing that Masahiro Nakamura was safe and sound, Mizuki Fukuda felt a lot more relieved, and his tone of voice also softened.
"Shouldn't you be going to the crew in Hokkaido? Why did you suddenly take a detour to Miyagi Prefecture..."
"There is a senior in Miyagi Prefecture, and I was going to visit him. Who knew it was such a coincidence, but we encountered an earthquake..."
Nakamura Masahiro thought of Wakamatsu Koji. When the earthquake just happened, the two were completely separated because they fled.
Later, he took the little girl Shiori Kubo and wandered around the refuge area. He didn't get any news from Wakamatsu Kouji, and he didn't know how he was doing now.
However, judging from Wakamatsu Koji's skill when he escaped, he should not have any problems.
After all, as long as you follow the large fleeing troops to the gathering area, basic safety guarantees will still be provided, not to mention living standards and the like.
"Masahiro, have you contacted your father?"
After chatting for a while, his mother, Mizuki Fukuda, brought the topic to Nakamura Masahiro’s father, Nakamura Tomimasa.
"He knows that you suffered an earthquake and is very worried about your safety... Since you came back safely, you must remember to report to him that you are safe."
"I understand. I will call my father later to report that he is safe."
Nakamura Masahiro agreed in a deep voice. He should really tell his father Nakamura Tomimasa that he was safe, and he could not let the other party worry all the time.
