A cork inlaid with gold foil flew upwards and hit the ceiling driven by the strong internal pressure of the gas.
"Yeah~"
Cheers full of joy rang out in the Chenfei Media headquarters!
In the newly decorated conference room, colorful balloons were hung, and a large cake with a height of seven stories was placed in the center. On the projection screen on the wall, "Warmly celebrate the single-day box office record of "The Swordsman"
The striking characters "billions" also reveal the theme of this celebration.
As the most important film project of Chenfei Media this year, "The Sword of China" was released nationwide on October 1, with a box office of 49.2 million on the first day, and then climbed higher and higher amidst the negative voices, completing an incredible reverse.
Potential miracle.
Yesterday, October 5, the single-day box office of "The Swordsman" successfully exceeded 100 million, reaching 107 million!
The cumulative box office of this under-appreciated martial arts blockbuster reached 377 million, which is not far from the cost line. If nothing unexpected happens, it can achieve a balance with today's box office.
At Lu Chen's suggestion, Chenfei Media held an internal celebration today to allow all employees of the company to share the joy of this hard-won success.
The conference room was full, and all the employees who could come were here, and everyone had smiles on their faces.
In recent times, Chenfei Media has been under considerable pressure. The success or failure of "Swordsman" will greatly affect the company's operations this year, and various public opinions from the industry circle have also caused certain problems for employees.
Influence.
This is especially true for those employees who were directly involved in the filming and production of "The Swordsman".
And as the box office of "The Swordsman" exceeded 100 million in a single day, all the pressure and worries disappeared!
Glasses of champagne were poured into the glasses, and pieces of sweet cake were cut out. Although this celebration was not grand, the atmosphere was definitely the best.
Snap! Snap!
Lu Xi clapped his hands and said, "Now, please let our Director Lu say a few words!"
"good!"
Everyone immediately applauded and cheered loudly, and their eyes were focused on Lu Chen.
At this moment, everyone from the company's top managers to the most ordinary clerks feel a sense of pride from the bottom of their hearts, because in the company they work for, there is a person who can be called a legend.
Follow Lu Chen and you will never fail!
Lu Chen smiled and raised his hand, and the conference room instantly fell silent.
"Thanks!"
He said: "Thank you for everyone's hard and fruitful work during this period. Without you, there would be no success of this movie. Thank you for your hard work!"
After speaking, Lu Chen bowed deeply to everyone.
Lu Chen's thanks are not false and polite. It would be impossible for him to complete "The Swordsman" by relying on his own strength. For the filming, production and promotion of this film, all employees are working hard and working overtime frequently.
What a complaint.
Many people did not leave their names at the end of the film, but they also made contributions.
After a moment of silence, loud applause suddenly erupted, and several emotional female employees even had red eyes.
Lu Chen straightened up and said with a smile: "I won't say much else. This month, all employees will be rewarded with two extra months of salary. When "The Swordsman" has a box office of over one billion, we will have a real celebration."
Yes, when the time comes, everyone will compete for luck in the lottery!"
Wow~
At this time, the applause almost brought down the roof, and an employee shouted loudly: "Long live Mr. Lu!".
To put it bluntly, an additional salary bonus is the most practical and impressive way to motivate people. The average salary level of Chenfei Media employees is at the upper-middle level in the industry, and an additional two months' bonus is definitely a great benefit.
And there will be a real celebration party later, and the prizes won by the lottery will definitely not be anything small, and the benefits will simply come one after another.
As for the question of "The Swordsman" having a box office of over 1 billion, is that still a problem?
It has reached nearly 400 million in five days, and it is still growing in reverse. Although it is impossible to grow indefinitely, there are still more than 20 days to go. It is easy to break 1 billion, and 1.5 to 2 billion is the possible end point.
.
The atmosphere in the conference room reached boiling point.
Lu Chen, Filia Chen and Lu Xi smiled at each other, sharing this joy with everyone.
On October 6, the single-day box office of "The Swordsman" was 135 million, which fell back to 118 million on October 7.
Although the miracle of growth against the trend ended on the seventh day, the total box office of "The Swordsman" accumulated 630 million in its first week of release, which greatly exceeded the cost line of 500 million. It has become inevitable to achieve substantial profits.
At the same time, "The Swordsman" completely crushed the Hollywood action blockbuster "Kingsman" released at the same time in terms of single-day box office and total box office. The latter's single-day box office has dropped to less than 30 million, although it has just started filming.
At that time, we had an advantage, but now we are being beaten to pieces.
Correspondingly, the screening rate of "The Swordsman" in theaters has been rising steadily, reaching 63.75% on the 7th, which is less than 7% away from the 70% ranking rate of phenomenal films, and has greatly squeezed out competitors.
In this regard, the industry circle has temporarily lost its voice.
But on the Internet, the reputation of "Swordsman" is still fermenting and spreading.
"The most exciting domestic blockbuster in ten years!"
"Completely defeating Hollywood action blockbusters, domestic martial arts movies are the first of its kind in history!"
“‘The Swordsman’ beats ‘Kingsman’ and topped the list with a box office of 630 million in the first week!”
"This is the real martial arts movie..."
On Tomato, the largest movie community website in China, "The Swordsman" won more than 200,000 fresh tomatoes, with less than 5,000 rotten tomatoes, and a freshness rating of 98%!
Inspur Blog’s movie rating is four and a half stars, with more than 2 million reviews, of which 93.45% are five-star reviews!
Guangying.com scored 9.56 points...
On these film review websites, there are also domestic films with higher scores than "The Swordsman", but they are all based on a small number of reviewers and are not at the same level as "The Swordsman". From this we can see
The reputation of "The Swordsman" is so outstanding.
Word-of-mouth is the market. It is completely reasonable for "The Swordsman" to have a box office of over 100 million in a single day without buying any box office.
The box office success alone is not enough to impress people. The peripheral sales of "The Swordsman" are also showing a hot trend. The cumulative sales in 7 days have exceeded 100 million, which is about to break the original domestic film peripheral record of "A Chinese Ghost Story"!
When did domestic film peripherals become so popular?
