Chapter two hundred and twentieth: ********,********.
For all the creative staff of "Agni 1941", this day is destined to be a sleepless night, as everyone is waiting for the box office data of the premiere.
According to the general rules of movie box office, the box office from the premiere to midnight can almost tell the box office of the previous three days, and the box office of the first three days can also tell the box office of the week. Basically, it is clear at a glance whether a movie is losing money or making a profit.
.
In the conference room, Han Fei frowned slightly, not because he was impatient, but because the conference room was about to be enveloped in second-hand smoke, but there was nothing he could do about it. The pressure in this business was high, so it was understandable to smoke to relieve it.
Finally, the door of the conference room was pushed open, and a staff member held a document in his hand. Director Li grabbed it and reached out much more quickly than usual.
Everyone gathered together, and Han Fei's movements were not slow. With the crowds of people moving, he finally caught sight of the data.
"Fire 1941" is 136 minutes long. There will be one round after the premiere and it will be screened in theaters.
Because it was the off-season, there were 12 theaters showing the movie. Except for three large theaters, the others were all small and medium-sized theaters.
The total box office of Zero Point is: 12.52 million, with 10,563 screenings and an attendance rate of 63%.
This data does not seem to be eye-catching, but it is within the acceptable range of everyone. Huayi Culture is still quite satisfied.
According to this data, the final box office will be around 300 million. For a film with an investment of 70 million, the final share of the 300 million box office can be more than 120 million. It is already a small profit. Although it is not much, it is
It's already much better than expected to lose money.
However, Han Fei is definitely not satisfied with this result. If it is just to make a small amount of money, there is no need for him to spend so much thought. To put it bluntly, the copyright income of "Serving the Country with Loyalty" is more than the final share of the money.
Much, for Han Fei, if the final box office is only 300 million, it will be considered a failure.
"Next, I still have to work hard, carry out more road shows, and stabilize the box office." Hua Yi Culture naturally hopes that the box office will be as high as possible, and continued road shows are definitely indispensable.
This time, Han Fei did not refuse and followed the crew to start road shows in theaters around the world to build momentum.
At this time, the online evaluation of "Fire 1941" also showed a positive trend, especially Shen Guangyao, played by Han Fei. The brilliance of this character was enough to make people fascinated.
Wandou.com initially gave the film a high score of 9.3. As the screenings began the next day, the score declined, but it only stopped the downward trend when it reached 9.0.
On the third day, as word-of-mouth fermented, more and more people watched the movie. Of course, for some couples, this movie is definitely not the first choice. This also caused "Fire 1941" to miss a lot of box office. After all, the type of movie
The limitations are there.
But even so, the box office of "Fire 1941" in three days has exceeded 50 million, and the box office trend is gradually becoming clear.
The real turning point came on the seventh day after its release. In just one day, the single-day box office of "Agni 1941" did not fall but rose, soaring to 21.67 million. Later I heard that some troops had booked the screening.
What really made "Fire 1941" take off at the box office was a piece of news on CCTV that lasted less than thirty seconds. The news reported that the army organized officers and soldiers to watch the movie, and what many soldiers thought after watching it.
Although there is only thirty seconds of footage, the influence of CCTV does not lie in how many people watched the news at the time, but in the influence afterwards.
When many troops saw that CCTV had reported it, they naturally lost their worries and reserved large-scale venues. Even some professional colleges organized collective viewings. Among them, the most active one was the Aviation College. The prototype of Shen Guangyao was in China Airlines. They all have a place in history, so naturally we should take this opportunity to do a good job in ideological education for students.
Then a shocking scene appeared. One week after the release of "Agni 1941", the box office did not fall but rose for four consecutive days. In just 11 days, it received a total box office of 200 million. If only the share is calculated, the capital has been guaranteed.
The most interesting thing is that with the CCTV report, some other mainstream media have also begun to pay attention to this work. Among them, Shen Guangyao, played by Han Fei, has become the top priority of the publicity. After all, his life experience is legendary enough and he is On the front, of course, Han Fei was inevitably mentioned, which gave him a strong sense of presence.
Naturally participating in road shows and various publicity activities, Han Fei inevitably became a vanguard. When asked what he thought of Shen Guangyao, Han Fei only said one sentence.
"******,*******."
Because of this sentence, Han Fei even made it to the hot search list. Although Hua Yi Culture worked hard behind the scenes, it can be seen that the audience recognized Han Fei.
Two weeks after its release, the box office exceeded 240 million. At the same time, online reviews of this movie began to become mixed. In fact, this is a good thing for the movie, because everyone has different opinions.
Just like a novel, everyone is saying good things, not necessarily because you write well, but more likely because few people pay attention to your work. After all, it is difficult to agree with others, and literary and artistic works cannot satisfy everyone.
Most of the viewers felt that the first half of the movie was too realistic, but in the second half, the style suddenly changed and they were a little uncomfortable with it.
Of course, even the audience who criticized the movie to death said they were moved by the last scene in the movie.
In the film, Shen Guangyao, played by Han Fei, chose to die with the enemy ship when his plane was damaged and ran out of ammunition. Two comrades sent his ashes home.
Shen's mother cried bitterly while holding the photo of her son. The picture moved up slightly, just in time to illuminate the four characters "Three Generations and Five Generals" on the door plaque.
"As explained in the previous article, the Shen family has been in the army for generations. Shen Guangyao's father and brother have all been killed in the war. He is the only bloodline of the Shen family. I really shed tears when I saw this. Shen Guangyao did not live up to the glory of his father and brother, and fought countless battles. Although he died physically, his spirit should not be forgotten."
"To be honest, this movie is not my favorite subject matter, but I have to admit that the character Shen Guangyao is not bad. Whether it is in the movie or the real prototype, the hero has a good journey. If there is a chance, I hope he can be on your grave. Pour a glass of wine before you."
"Agni 1941" was released for three weeks and the box office exceeded 370 million, achieving a late-stage explosion that stunned everyone in the industry.
As word-of-mouth exploded, many viewers went to the local martyrs' cemetery to pay their respects. It also attracted the attention of many media, and was even reported again by CCTV.
Now it is completely unstoppable. The name Shen Guangyao has appeared in the top ten of the search list for three days in a row, and Han Fei has also attracted much attention because of this role. He is also young, handsome and talented.
For a time, when Han Fei was doing road shows, almost no one called him by his real name anymore, and Shen Guangyao seemed to be his first name.
