Chapter 1666: Once Bitten by a Snake

After setting a single-day box office record in mainland China on the first day, the single-day box office hit a new high on Sunday, July 8, reaching 51 million yuan. On the following Sunday, although the box office dropped somewhat, it still reached a figure of 43 million, which is hard to match for many mainland films.

It wasn't until the working day that such a ferocious momentum eased. However, the single-day box office on Monday was still as high as 27 million.

In the midst of the national attention, the final seven days in the first week, it won a box office of 236 million yuan in one fell swoop. It is also a new record. The cumulative box office in a week has surpassed most films in the history of Chinese movies.

Not only that, but in Hong Kong, Macao and Taiwan, where the filming began at the same time, they also set new record-level box office results.

Among them is only Hong Kong. In the same first week and seven days, the box office reached 18 million Hong Kong dollars. It is expected that the total box office of the film in Hong Kong will reach more than 60 million Hong Kong dollars. The highest box office record in Hong Kong.

Jinshu Media tried its best to promote it, and the box office sales of the movie almost caused a nationwide grand occasion, and the news spread back to North America as soon as possible.

It’s just that in mainland China, the income is 46 million yuan, which is equivalent to 5 million US dollars. Compared with the North American domestic market, it seems not much, but it also allows many people to see the huge potential of China’s film market at a glance. After all, many people who pay attention to related industries know that However, the film market in mainland China has only just recovered for a few years.

On the other hand, the North American release date is July 28, facing the August schedule, and the distance is not far away.

The news that the film first opened in China and created a record-breaking box office has also become an important publicity point for Daenerys. When the news came back, the side quickly followed up and launched the last wave of sprint promotion before the film was released. The data also re-manipulated the media word-of-mouth when the film premiered in Cannes.

Daenerys also released the latest version of the movie trailer.

Although it was only a small set of marketing packages within the budget allowed, the attention of the Chinese film has also increased significantly in the past few years when the Chinese film has already accumulated a considerable reputation among North American audiences.

However, compared to the same period, the movie that North American audiences pay the most attention to is undoubtedly still.

Even if the media reputation is only relatively mediocre in the passing range, but with its novel shooting techniques, this classic war movie transformed from comics still shows signs of a dark horse. It just won the first day of release on July 7 at the same time. The box office of 25.1 million US dollars is equivalent to five times that of the same period. After all, it is the background of the world's largest film market.

After the first day, they sang all the way, and finally the box office in the first week reached an astonishing $96.28 million, which not only surpassed the previous week, but even directly crushed the blockbuster with a considerable popularity foundation. This summer, the first week of the data Second only to the US$107.22 million data of 3D animation blockbusters, it ranked second in the year.

With such a brilliant start, there is no suspense to lock in the local box office of 200 million yuan, and the question now is whether it can reach 300 million yuan.

You know, after the box office week on July 7, in the following two weeks, Daenerys's main titles are and are not very competitive films, even if other film companies have blockbuster releases, but in the end There is no longer too much internal ebb and flow, and there is considerable room for the box office to play.

Los Angeles, Daenerys Studios.

It's July 14th.

Friday.

In the last few minutes of the afternoon, we arranged a video call with Chen Qing from the other side of the ocean, about Clinton's visit to Vietnam next month and CNOOC's upcoming overseas IPO.

Chen Qing still digressed again and began to chat with her boss about some trivial matters: "Li's cupping portrait, boss, have you received it, how do you feel?"

It's about a set of photos taken by Li Dameiren for publicity.

Still because of Simon.

When he saw Li Damei's beautiful back at the manor in San Lucas, Mexico, Simon felt that it was a pity not to be cupped for such a beautiful woman, and then of course he was delighted.

At that time, the woman let Simon do what she wanted with an aggrieved look on her face.

Unexpectedly, after returning to China, the cupping scars are obviously impossible to disappear in a short period of time, and it just so happens that for publicity, Jinshu Media arranged for her to be the cover of a magazine directly affiliated to the Mainland Radio and Television. This woman is also very thoughtful, so she directly I took a set of backless photos.

Of course it is the one with cupping marks.

Therefore, it caused a small sensation in the entire Chinese-speaking area. After all, Li Damei's beauty is well known, and two strings of cupping marks suddenly appeared on the back of the supposedly perfect beauty. However, under the strong contrast, it still sparked a heated discussion.

Especially on the open Hong Kong Island, a TV station specially invited an old Chinese doctor to comment on them one by one. The final conclusion is that the cupping this time is very, very unprofessional.

In any case, it has become a very successful marketing.

It's just that this set of photos brought the personal popularity of Li Damei, who didn't have many roles in the movie, to a new level along with the trend of this movie's popularity.

Simon can only say that he is a very smart stunner.

After chatting with Nizi across the street, he also stated that he would help her out next time, causing a burst of coquettish resentment, before the topic turned to business.

Clinton's visit to Vietnam is scheduled for August 10th, and he plans to stay in Vietnam for four days, which shows that he attaches great importance to it.

Chen Qing, as Simon's personal representative in Asia, went to

From time to time, I will join in the fun, and reach some cooperation by the way. The project has been discussed in advance. However, considering the reaction from China, this time it is mainly Korean capital, and the investment amount is only more than 200 million U.S. dollars.

It can be regarded as the initial front-stop contact.

Follow-up is the big head.

Then there is CNOOC's ipo again.

The second overseas IPO of CNOOC was completed in early 2001. This time, it was brought forward to October this year.

It is mainly the opinions given by the consulting team here.

Federal has officially entered a new round of interest rate hike cycle. The two major stock indexes in North America are at a high level. The time will be delayed until next year. It is hard to say whether there will be another bear market, so it is brought forward.

Furthermore, what caught Simon the most was the financing scale and valuation level of this IPO.

Compared with the previous estimate of a price-earnings ratio of more than 20 times, after reinvesting more high-quality assets, CNOOC only dared to report a valuation price-earnings ratio of 4 to 5 times this time, which is a big show. At the same time, the financing amount has also been adjusted from the previous level of 20 billion Hong Kong dollars to this time around 8 billion Hong Kong dollars.

Frankly speaking, Simon was a little blindsided.

Even if he was bitten by a snake once, he wouldn't be so afraid of Jing Rope.

However, Simon didn't say anything in the end. After all, one is willing to fight and the other is willing to suffer, and it is probably understandable that there is only one result this time, and the others don't care too much.

Chen Qing was in high spirits, and after she finished talking about the business, she continued to digress: "Boss, Zheng and Yang, who just came back from the United States a few days ago, are here, and that big movie star Chen is also here this time." , saying that he hopes to sign an agency agreement with Jinshu, and consider opening up some businesses in China. Let's have breakfast together later, do you have any explanation?"

Simon is rarely surprised that Joan Chen can let go of his airs and return to China to develop, but he has no more opinions. He just said: "Yang's high-end interview idea, you can try it. China just lacks this kind of program now. However, we must Choose a good platform, after all, ordinary people often don’t have much interest in similar interviews, and more attention is paid to elite groups.”

Chen Qing nodded: "I have already read the plan she gave. It is planned to be produced by Jinshu, put in Beijing or Shanghai, and cooperate with some Chinese media in Southeast Asia. Boss, is this the way of thinking?"

"Exactly."

After receiving the compliment, Chen Qing chuckled, then suddenly turned around: "The boss still prefers women like us."

Simon also smiled: "Are you that kind?"

Chen Qing deliberately spoke in a slightly whiny tone, and added a pun: "The kind that is very capable."

After talking about it, it was about to start racing, Simon stepped on the brakes in time: "This is another opportunity to bring Chinese movies to another level. Please operate carefully, don't waste it."

Hearing this, Chen Qing restrained her expression obediently, and said, "I'm already working on it. From the beginning of this month, there will be new films every week. The King of Sunglasses was released yesterday. Although it is a literary film, because there are so many people watching the film recently, the box office is also high." Not bad, at least 30 million can be won, which is very powerful. Next, there is Jeter Lee, which will be the finale at the end of the month. Tsk, it is not easy for this project to pass the review. On the side of China Film Group, Mr. Han personally ran away Several times at the film bureau, and finally someone above personally issued a message to let it go."

Simon nodded in satisfaction.

In the past few years, China’s Lunar New Year archives have been developed, and the habit of watching movies has formed. This time, the summer archives will basically take shape after a month of fanfare. The key is to maintain continuity in the future. Focus on deepening consumption habits.

Unknowingly, they talked for an hour, and finally chatted a few more words, and the two ended the line.

bj.

After finishing the video call with my boss, it's still 7 o'clock in the morning here.

The date is Saturday, July 15th.

Leaving her room in the West Courtyard, Chen Qing came to the Lake House in the Garden of the Central Courtyard to have breakfast as usual.

Walking into Fanglou, there were already three women waiting here, they were Zheng, Yang and Chen that Chen Qing and her boss mentioned just now.

The three girls were chatting and flipping through the newspaper at first, when they saw Chen Qing coming in, they quickly got up to say hello.

Chen Qing also greeted with a smile. After everyone sat down again, they looked at the newspaper in Ms. Yang's hand: "Is there any interesting news today?"

"Still." Compared with the other two women, Ms. Yang can understand Chen Qing's identity better. Hearing this, she leaned forward slightly and said with a bit of humility: "Yesterday I got another 37 million. It seems that the final box office may Breaking through 500 million yuan is a bit unbelievable."

Chen Qing had already read the materials prepared by Jiang Shanwu in advance when she had a video call with her boss.

On the second Friday, it earned another 37 million yuan. It is expected to collect another 180 million yuan in the second week of the release, including the 230 million yuan in the first week, for a total of 410 million yuan. According to this trend, even if the box office shrinks rapidly in the future, it will collect another 100 million yuan. Not a big problem, and finally set a new record.

Listening to Ms. Yang's words, Chen Qing also nodded, but said: "This is called a phenomenon-level film in the West. It is very good to have such a blockbuster film released every two or two years. In most cases, such as the one released yesterday Wang's film is expected to have a box office of 30 million, which is normal."

Da Shuangzi also interjected at this time: "The piracy in China is still too rampant. I just saw that some pirated versions have already started to flow out. It's a pity. Otherwise, it's no problem for this movie to hit 600 million, and the box office of other movies can also increase. A lot."

Star Chen echoed: "So, Chinese films still need to pay more attention to developing the international market.

Fang's film industry is very regulated, and there is an added value advantage of the exchange rate. "

Chen Qing smiled and listened without refuting.

However, I remembered that my boss had told her in private that it was completely opposite to Chen Dayingxing.

For example, Zhang Guoshi's trilogy is already in the later stage. According to the attitude of his boss, this series should focus more on the Chinese market itself rather than overseas. The boss's private attitude is that he hopes that the series can recover the cost only from the Chinese market.

Now it seems that the total investment of the trilogy is 500 million yuan. Even if the publicity expenses in the future are counted, if the ticket price level can be achieved, only by relying on the domestic market to recover all the investment and achieve profitability, there is indeed great hope.

Of course, Chen Qing was not that optimistic.

According to the current situation, it is really a phenomenon-level work, a film with a box office of 500 million made by combining various factors. In fact, as long as each film can stabilize the box office of 300 million in the mainland, it will be considered a movie. It was very successful. After all, Zhang Guoshi's personal reputation is there. There are so many overseas markets. If you play casually, you will make a lot of money.

Even though it was Saturday, I had breakfast with three women and helped them arrange some things. In the following day, Chen Qing also arranged a full work schedule for herself.

First of all, I have just had breakfast, and I have already dealt with one thing before I leave the house.

About the other three women, the big Bingbing sisters and the pretty horse trio.

The last time Ren Jingxi mentioned a few words to her, Chen Qing asked Jiang Shanwu to understand, only to find out that in the name of her own boss, and Jin Shu just happened to be assigned a very "motivated" agent, For a while, the three girls were running rampant in the circle.

After all, the backer of Simon Westeros is bigger than the sky.

It doesn't matter if you can eat it or not.

The result of Chen Qing's handling is to take away all the resources the three girls have grabbed during this period, and then send them to Suzhou. Now that Jinshu Performing Arts School has studied for a year, don't think about anything else.

However, Chen Qing admired the young female manager of the three girls named Tong Yuelin.

After all, self-motivation is not wrong.

Although he didn't have a good measure, he would be a very capable assistant after a little training, so he simply transferred from Jinshu and arranged him in his assistant team, intending to train him.
