Entertaining Children

To say that what Xiao Yao is most concerned about in the recent period is of course the box office and word-of-mouth of the animated movie "Wall-E".

It was released for four days in the first week, and the film won more than 300 million box office, successfully becoming the weekly box office champion of the week. Although this result is very dazzling, there is also a certain reason because the end of June is not yet the real start of the summer vacation. At this time, there are no very competitive films released to compete with it.

In the first two days of the second week, with the word-of-mouth fermentation of the previous weekend and the further improvement of the film schedule, some schools were on holiday, and the box office of "Wall-E" was still very eye-catching, and it still got nearly 100 million box office in a single day. However, the first two days of the second week are the last two days of June, and not all schools are on holiday, and there are still no more threatening competitors appearing in these two days, so "WALL-E" has won nearly 6 days in six days. 600 million box office.

On Wednesday of the second week, the time has officially entered July, and finally a "blockbuster movie" that looks more threatening is released. The overall film schedule of "Wall-E" has dropped a bit, and the single-day box office has also declined to a certain extent, but the decline is not too large. On Thursday, another new movie was released, and the overall screening rate of "Wall-E" continued to decline, and the single-day box office also dropped further.

Although the box office of these two days has dropped month-on-month, what is striking is that under the circumstances of the impact of new movies and the continuous decline in the film schedule, the drop in the single-day box office of "Wall-E" is not normal, and there are still thousands of dollars. million at the box office.

Thursday night was Sun Tingting's first concert. Even though the so-called relatively "high-quality" audiences usually attend concerts, after Xiao Yao appeared as a performer, some audiences took out their mobile phones to record videos. A few hours after the concert ended on Thursday night, some videos of Xiao Yao at the concert appeared on the Internet one after another.

Six days after the film was released, some reporters who couldn't find Xiao Yao to interview revealed the news that Xiao Yao was going to be a guest performer at Sun Tingting's concert, and also gave a biography of Sun Tingting by the way. Classical concerts are relatively niche things, but with the recent popularity of Xiao Yao’s movie box office and word-of-mouth, Xiao Yao’s topic has exploded, and many netizens paid attention to this concert, and it once became a trend of Sun Tingting’s concert ticket rush.

I didn't get the tickets for Sun Tingting's concert, so I made up for it by watching a video. So after the videos of these concerts were released, many people watched them, and they spread widely.

In the video, Xiao Yao is playing electronic music at a classical concert, playing the piano with one hand and operating the electronic music pad at the same time. In addition, Sun Tingting specially introduced at the end that the last three new pieces are Xiao Yao's works. After these videos spread, Xiao Yao once again became a hot topic on the Internet.

Stimulated by the upsurge of discussion caused by these concert videos, Xiao Yao's movie successfully reversed its decline on Friday and returned to Wednesday's single-day box office performance. On Saturday, the single-day box office of the movie even rose to the top of the first weekend, once again exceeding the single-day box office of 100 million yuan, and surpassed the two new films released this week, winning the single-day box office champion.

Ten days after its release, the total box office of the animated movie "Wall-E" has already touched the one billion mark.

Although Xiao Yao did not do any further promotional activities after the movie was released, as the creator and main investor of the movie, he has been paying attention to the box office of the movie. Every day he receives box office data from the publisher in his mailbox, and he takes time to look at it every night during this period.

Zhao Rui's graduation ceremony is the eleventh day of the film's release.

The official statistical data has not yet been released, and the distributors have not yet sent the official data for Sunday, but bloggers on Weibo who share the data of the film and television industry have released the box office data for Sunday. At this time, Xiao Yao mainly went to Weibo to look at the Sunday box office data released by the blogger "Movie Box Office".

Judging from the data released by the blogger, "Wall-E" once again had a single-day box office of over 100 million on Sunday, and the total box office not only broke through the billion mark, but also exceeded 1.1 billion.

Generally, the producer of a movie can get about one-third of the box office share, but the specific share ratio of each movie is not exactly the same.

The distribution company that Xiao Yao found this time is only medium in China. The distribution company did not allow the distribution company to use guaranteed guarantees, buyout distribution, and prepaid production fees. The box office rebate is promised, so the producer of this movie will also have a slightly higher share, and the share that can be obtained is about 36%.

With a box office of 1.1 billion, the producer's share can reach almost 400 million. For a movie with a production cost of less than 200 million yuan, the return on investment has reached 100%. The release of this film has not yet ended, and there will be a series of income from overseas distribution, copyrights for TV and online broadcasts, authorization and derivatives, etc. At least from a commercial point of view, this film has already been very successful.

In terms of word-of-mouth, the movie's ratings on various rating websites are still strong. On the "Tudou" website, the film's score has dropped slightly, but it still has 8.7 points.

The film's lowest score ever reached 8.5 points. After investigation and analysis by the distributor, it was found that the drop in ratings of this movie was most likely caused by cyber trolls deliberately setting low scores on rating websites. The suspects were naturally the producers and distributors of the two movies that were released in July. square.

During the daytime on Saturday, the person in charge of the publishing company and Tong Luo discussed with Xiao Yao through an online video conference whether to also buy a navy to restore the score or to give the two competitors a low score. In the end, Xiao Yao, who was the main investor, vetoed this approach.

When he was an ordinary movie fan in his previous life, Xiao Yao hated this kind of behavior of hiring sailors to collect points. As a practitioner in the industry in this life, Xiao Yao knows that this kind of thing is very common in the industry, but he still tries to avoid it as much as possible. In fact, based on Xiao Yao's appeal among fans, as long as he goes to post bars, fan groups and other places and shouts that he is attacked by a troll, I believe he doesn't need to buy a troll, and fans can immediately give him the rating of the movie. Swipe back, but he didn't do that either.

After watching Zhao Rui's rehearsal on Friday night, Xiao Yao took the time to secretly go to the cinema to watch two newly released movies. In Xiao Yao's view, the prospects of these two sentimental films are mediocre, and even if the rating of "Wall-E" is lowered, their box office performance will not be greatly improved. If there is no effect, then this behavior of brushing points will definitely not last long.

And indeed it is. After two days of the weekend, the score of "Wall-E" returned to 8.7 points.

If there is nothing to worry about at the box office and word of mouth, then this movie has nothing to worry about. After briefly reading the news and information about movies, Xiao Yao went to his post bar for a stroll.

In his post bar, a post about the box office and word-of-mouth of the movie "Wall-E" was pinned to the top. The box office of the movie and the ratings on various rating sites are updated in the post every day. After visiting the post bar, Xiao Yao discovered that the fans in the post bar had already discovered the situation of "WALL-E" encountering malicious brushing of points. It's just that Xiao Yao has never been tearing up with others on the Internet. Without evidence, Xiao Yao's fans did not fight with the two new movies on the Internet, but just spontaneously went to "Tudou" and so on. A wave of high scores was given to "Wall-E" on the rating website, bringing the score back.

"Teacher Tong and Mr. Zhao should also pay attention to my post bar, so that they won't be worried." After reading the posts in the post bar, Xiao Yao thought proudly and gratifiedly.

In addition to the movie "Wall-E", there are two other recent top posts in the post bar.

One of them was that a small bar owner collected videos of Xiao Yao's participation in Sun Tingting's concert on the Internet and posted them in a post. Because the effect of the mobile phone video was so poor, the poster also urged Xiao Yao to record and release the official version of these four songs at the end of the post. There are quite a few people who replied to the post and followed the appeal, and the formation was neat, which looked very spectacular.

The other pinned post has the same content, but it was posted earlier. This post is a clip of Xiao Yao singing "Childhood" in "Longing for Life". Although the effect of this video clip intercepted from a TV show is much better, at the end of the post, the poster also urged Xiao Yao to record and release the official version of "Childhood". The formation of replying and following up on this post is also very neat. Since the posting time is earlier, the number of replies is more, the building is higher, and it looks more spectacular.

Because Xiao Yao's new song debut method is really eclectic, in fact, posts like this calling for the recording and release of the official version of the song often appear in Xiao Yao's post bar. Xiao Yao visits the post bar from time to time, but not every time he immediately satisfies the wishes of fans. For example, "Yanjing One Night" and "Flying Higher" sung during the art test back then, it took a long time before the official version was released.

This time, Xiao Yao was very moved to see the fans so caringly and spontaneously going to score his movie on the rating website. This trip to the United States is not short, so Xiao Yao wanted to satisfy the wishes of the fans on the post bar before leaving. Anyway, he will fly to the United States at noon tomorrow, and there will be more than ten hours of sleep on the plane, so staying up all night tonight is nothing to Xiao Yao. There is a recording studio at home, and the recording studio in the basement has very good sound insulation, so I don't worry about disturbing my parents and Lin Qisan.

However, Xiao Yao did not follow the requirements of fans on the post bar. Although Xiao Yao can record alone now, Sun Tingting participated in all four pieces at the concert, one of which was adapted by Sun Tingting herself, and the other three can be said to be written by Xiao Yao for Sun Tingting, so formally There must be a part played by Sun Tingting in the version. It was already early morning, and it didn't matter if Xiao Yao didn't sleep, but it was impossible to call Sun Tingting to record at this time.

The four pieces of the concert will not be recorded, and Xiao Yao will record not only "Childhood", but also "Breakup Embrace" sung at the graduation dinner of Yandian Performance Department just now.

While singing at the dinner, Xiao Yao noticed that someone took out his mobile phone and took a video of himself. There is no video of this song on the Internet yet, Xiao Yao thinks it is probably because those people drank too much and fell asleep. After waking up tomorrow, the video of this song should also appear on the Internet. At that time, there will probably be an additional post requesting the release of the official version of this song on my post bar, so why not record it together now. Now is the graduation season, and this song for graduating students is just released at this time.

Xiao Yao, who decided to record songs all night, turned off the computer, got up and went to the recording studio in the basement.

Xiao Yao is flying to the United States today, and the parents Xiao Siqi and Ye Jiaying got up relatively early.

"Bayi seems to have drunk a lot yesterday, right? Is it too early to call him?" Ye Jiaying asked Xiao Siqi.

Ye Jiaying went to the kitchen to make a hearty breakfast early after waking up, but after making it, she hesitated whether she should wake Xiao Yao up so early.

"I think he looked very energetic after he came back last night, it doesn't look like he drank too much!" Xiao Siqi said, "At this time, he has already returned from exercising, but now he hasn't even opened the door. I slept a lot longer than usual."

When the two got up and left the room, they noticed that Xiao Yao's room door was closed. Usually when Xiao Yao lives at home, he usually leaves the door open after getting up.

"I'll call him!" Xiao Siqi said, and he was about to go upstairs to Xiao Yao's room.

"Wait!" Ye Jiaying stopped, "The plane at noon! It's still early, don't worry, it's rare that he doesn't exercise early, let him sleep more!"

"What's the matter?" Xiao Siqi muttered, "He's not in a hurry, I'm in a hurry! He hasn't sung that song to me yet! I've been waiting all night!"

"Hey, is there such a father as you?" Ye Jiaying stared at Xiao Siqi and said.

"No," Xiao Siqi hurriedly changed his words with a smile, "You see that your breakfast is already ready, and it won't be good if it gets cold. In order to save your hard work early in the morning, I'll ask him to come down for breakfast!"

"No need!" Ye Jiaying said, "It's summer now, it's just right to eat cold!"

Ye Jiaying, who was still hesitating whether to ask Xiao Yao to get up so early, simply confronted her husband.

"Uncle Xiao, Aunt Ye, good morning!" The two were arguing, Lin Qisan and Nina Aiyiguli went downstairs together and greeted them.

"Morning!" Ye Jiaying put on a smiling face and greeted the two of them, "Breakfast is ready, let's have breakfast!"

"Don't wait for Bayi to come back?" Lin Qisan looked around and asked with some doubts.

"Don't wait for him, let him sleep for a while~" Ye Jiaying waved her hand, and immediately responded, "No! Why wait for him to come back? He went out?"

"Why sleep longer?" Lin Qisan also asked curiously, "I called Bayi just now and found no one in his room. Didn't he go out to exercise early? Couldn't he be in his room last night?"

"Is it true that I went out to exercise early?" Xiao Siqi took out his mobile phone and said, "Call and ask, he should have a mobile phone!"

But before Xiao Siqi took out his phone, Ye Jiaying found Xiao Yao walking out from the door leading to the basement under the stairs.

"Bayi! Why did you go to the basement so early in the morning?" Ye Jiaying asked strangely.

In addition to the recording room, the basement of Xiao's house is a utility room, and rooms such as the gym are on the second floor.

"Of course I went to the recording studio to record." Xiao Yao laughed, his voice hoarse.

"Go to the studio to record early in the morning?" Ye Jiaying said.

"What's wrong with your voice?" Xiao Siqi keenly noticed that Xiao Yao's voice was wrong.

"It wasn't early in the morning. I went there early in the morning and have been recording until now. After recording all night, wouldn't my voice be like this?" Xiao Yao laughed.

The arrangement and soundtrack of the two previous songs are all in Xiao Yao's mind. It is not the first time that Xiao Yao has recorded a song by himself. He is familiar with the use and operation of various instruments and equipment, and recorded the official version of the two songs. It won't take long to come. But it was already early in the morning when Xiao Yao went to record, and he drank a lot of wine at dinner the day before, his voice was not in good condition, and he had stricter requirements for the official version of his songs, so Xiao Yao has not recorded it until now Two songs, coming out of the studio.

"Recording all night? What are you recording?" Xiao Siqi asked.

"Just yesterday's song, "Broken Up Embrace", didn't you say you wanted to listen to it?" Xiao Yao said with a smile, "I'm going to fly at noon, I wanted to record it before leaving, so I stayed up all night."

"It's all you!" Ye Jiaying glared at Xiao Siqi.

Xiao Siqi looked at Ye Jiaying innocently, then turned around and scolded Xiao Yao: "You are so stupid! I said I want to listen, you just get up in the morning and sing to me with the guitar. Who wants you to record the official version? You have to hurry Recording all night? Even if you want to record, you can wait until we get up now, we go together, and I will record for you!"

"Okay, it's not because of you!" Xiao Yao waved his hand, "I actually did it for the fans of my friends!"

"For your fans?" Xiao Siqi asked strangely.

"I not only recorded "Broken Up Embrace", but also "Childhood"!" Xiao Yao said, "Actually, I mainly wanted to record "Childhood". I want to record the official version of "Childhood" before going to the United States. When I sang the song "Break Up Embrace" yesterday, there was a classmate who recorded the video. I guess there will be friends in the post bar in two days The official version of the post is required, so I will record it along the way."

"But you're right!" Xiao Yao looked at Xiao Siqi and said, "I should have asked you to record for me when I woke up in the morning, and there should be enough time. But I didn't expect it last night, and I ran to the recording studio in a flash of heat. .”

"What a lunatic!" Xiao Siqi and Ye Jiaying shook their heads helplessly.

"By the way," Xiao Yao looked at Lin Qisan and Nina and said, "Don't poke me on the Internet about this! I don't want people to know that I did such a stupid thing!"
