This actor just wants to verify.

Chapter 452: Just Do It (Please Double the Monthly Tickets)
In the following two days, Hao Yun and An Xiaoxi went to Hong Kong and Taiwan to participate in promotional activities.

Due to the booming box office, the publicity and promotion department received full support from local tycoons such as Lin Jianyue and Yang Dengkui.

Many local celebrities were invited to participate.

From Taiwan, there are more than a dozen stars including Jay Chou, Wu Bai, Wang Xinling, Zhang Shaohan, SHE, Big X, Small X, etc., and even Lin Qingxia was invited to come and support the event.

The situation over in Hong Kong is even more amazing.

Hao Yun himself has very extensive connections in Hong Kong, not to mention the producer Lin Jianyue.

Dozens of celebrities came that day to support the movie "Those Years".

The first-day box office is important, but the box office performance in the following days will determine how far the film can go.

Because the better the word of mouth, the stronger the box office staying power will be.

If word of mouth is bad, they will just lure people in for those first two days and cheat them out of some money, but then everyone will know the movie is bad and no one will go to see it anymore.

In addition, it also has something to do with publicity.

The release date is only one month, so there is no such thing as good wine needs no bush.

By the time people know about your movie, it will have been three to five months since you took it off the screen. Then no matter how good the reputation is, it will no longer have any direct impact on you.

Therefore, while the publicity and promotion teams were putting all their efforts into the production, they also began to put pressure on the producers.

money!
Mane!

There's simply not enough to spend.

Moreover, the distributor cannot just advance this money. It must obtain the consent of the producer before increasing the distribution budget, otherwise no one will pay for you.

The producers are promoting three things.

The first one was to increase the budget in response to the publicity and promotion request. After some discussion, it was decided to increase the publicity and promotion budget by five million.

Hao Yun thought these people were crazy.

For a movie that grossed 6 million on the first day, they are determined to push the total mainland box office to over 100 million.

at all costs.

If the investment is increased by 5 million, each company will need to contribute another 500,000. If you don't contribute, other companies will be happy to help.

This movie made a ton of money, definitely more than a 200% return.

Do it or not? If you don’t want to do it, it’s up to you!

Hao Yun, Aunt Liu, and Uncle Jiang all chose to follow suit.

So the cost of "Those Years" became 15 million, 8 million in production costs, and 7 million in publicity and promotion.

The second thing the producer does is to fight piracy.

The third thing is to promote the release of "Those Years" in Malaysia, Singapore, Japan, Bangbang, Thailand and other places.

This movie is very much in line with the tastes of Asians. The cultures here have certain commonalities, so there is naturally no shortage of corresponding audiences. No matter how thin a mosquito leg is, it is still meat.

We also sell various rights such as copyrights of audio-visual products at home and abroad.

Hao Yun originally brought these people onto the chariot of "Those Years", and now the results are finally being seen.

Indeed, he was able to raise the 10 million investment for this film on his own.

The profit is much more than what can be shared by so many people, but it is difficult to form a united front like the current one.

Han Sanping has said that the box office must exceed 100 million.

It can’t be a global box office of 100 million, it must be a mainland box office of over 100 million.

Faced with the explosive box office momentum of "Those Years", the big directors have mixed feelings.

A young man in his twenties actually surpassed most of them.

In Shi Xiaoqiang's words, even if you try your best to do your best, it may not be as good as Hao Yun's casual approach.

At present, Zhang Yimou has two films "Hero" and "House of Flying Daggers" that have grossed over 100 million yuan, Stephen Chow's "Kung Fu" has grossed over 100 million yuan, and Ma Dagang's "A World Without Thieves" has grossed over 100 million yuan.

If Hao Yun's "Those Years" can make over 100 million yuan, it will be the fifth movie to make over 100 million yuan.

Zhang Yimou has two films that grossed over 100 million yuan, so he doesn't think young people are too arrogant. In his opinion, movie box office is important, but at least it is not everything.

Film is an art.

Box office is what producers care about most, but as a director, you also have to consider how your personal thoughts are expressed in the film and the rewards from awards.

At most, he envied Jiang Wen for having a good disciple.

There will always come a time when this group of directors can no longer shoot, and then people will say that Zhang Yimou is no longer capable and that he can only make money all day long.

However, Jiang Wen's family always has disciples to support them.

If something urgent happens in life, you can even throw the movie you are filming directly to your apprentice and let him shoot it.

Alas, I envy Jiang Wen for having a good disciple every day.

Ma Dagang was more than just envious, he was so jealous that he cursed.

Jiang Wen is bragging again. I hear him bragging all day long. What's so great about it? It's just that he has a disciple. I'm so angry that my head is about to explode.

But Wang Zhongjun and Wang Zhonglei were very glad that "Those Years" performed well at the box office.

Otherwise, Aunt Hua really doesn’t know how to face the upcoming crisis.

Yes, Aunt Hua was in big trouble.

This matter is related to Wang Jinghua.

Anyone who pays attention to the entertainment industry knows who Wang Jinghua is.

At that time, Hua Yi joined forces with Ma Dagang with an annual salary of 400 million yuan plus 3% of shares, which opened the era of Hua Yi's movies.

To make a movie, you have to use actors or celebrities.

In addition to the director and the script, the actors are crucial to the success of a movie.

So in 2000, Aunt Hua invited Wang Jinghua to join with a 50% stake.

After Wang Jinghua joined Huayi, her greatest contribution was to train a group of outstanding actors.

In terms of film control, the big commercial director Ma Dagang is in charge.

Wang Jinghua has strict control over the selection of artists.

In just a few years, Aunt Hua became the leader of the film and television company in the entertainment industry.

The Wang brothers lived a life of extravagance.

Wang Zhongjun, who loves painting, spent more than 400 million to buy Chen Yifei's painting Juanjuan without blinking an eyelid. However, Xiao He is the cause of his success and failure.

In 2004, Ma Dagang left Huayi. Wang Zhongjun mentioned in the interview program "Zhuojian" that at that time Ma Dagang left because someone offered a higher price to recruit him. When Ma Dagang came to tell them that he was going to "start a business", he had already negotiated the terms with the other party.

Fortunately, Ma Dagang returned to Huayi one year after his "departure". No matter how great the price he paid, the returning Ma Dagang at least produced "A World Without Thieves", which had a box office of over 1 million yuan.

However, now that Wang Jinghua's contract has expired, Wang Jinghua, who owns 50% of the shares, would rather give up this "so-called" 50% stake and leave Aunt Hua.

50% of the shares sounds good, why don’t you ask her to transfer it and see.

It’s time to show your cards and stop playing.

If they don’t want to play, then don’t play. The Wang brothers really don’t think highly of Wang Jinghua as an agent, so they don’t plan to give up more benefits.

However, they looked down on Wang Jinghua, but they valued the artists that Wang Jinghua had brought before.

I just want Wang Jinghua to get out of here on her own.

I just didn’t expect that all these artists would leave.

Oh shit, this is too outrageous.

If Wang Jinghua took her artists away, it could almost be said that "half of Aunt Hua was emptied out."

Therefore, "Those Years" was like timely rain to Aunt Hua.

At the very least, it can weaken the negative impact of Wang Jinghua and a group of artists leaving after their contracts expired in August.

Ma Dagang complained about Hao Yun, but Wang Zhongjun thought Hao Yun was like an angel.

Like Han Sanping, he hopes that the box office of "Those Years" will exceed 100 million yuan.

Compared with Wang Zhongjun, who got to eat the grapes, Zhang Jizhong almost regretted it to death.

He should not have held back Hao Yun's salary in the first place. He should have exchanged the role of Yang Guo for an investment in "Those Years". Hao Yun would definitely not have refused.

It's too late to say anything now.

Hao Yun has already got the role of Yang Guo, and the filming has been completed and is waiting for it to be broadcast.

Hao Yun was not interested in the subsequent "The Deer and the Cauldron" and "The Heaven Sword and Dragon Saber", and they had no plans to work together again.

However, in line with the principle of plucking feathers from passing geese, Zhang Jizhong will definitely not ignore such great popularity.

Didn’t An Ran and Wu Yang not get together in “Those Years”?

Aren’t you all very regretful?

Do you want them to be together?

Come and watch "The Return of the Condor Heroes", Yang Guo and Xiaolongnu, a fairy couple, will satisfy all your requirements and make up for all your regrets.

So during the release of "Those Years", the bearded man was doing his best to attract attention.

However, he is not trying to take advantage of the popularity randomly, because it is impossible to do so.

As a master of hype, he must use the hype attribute to the extreme. So he decisively released a few photos of Hao Yun and An Xiaoxi on the set of The Return of the Condor Heroes.

It's not a still. Stills are meaningless.

Everyone has long been immune to stills.

These collectible behind-the-scenes photos that Zhang Jizhong took out show the interactions between Hao Yun and An Xiaoxi during the filming.

Hao Yun tried to touch An Xiaoxi's head, but An Xiaoxi dodged with a smile.

In a patch of artificial love flowers, Hao Yun hugged An Xiaoxi and supported her to prevent her from falling into the flowers.

The situation was very tense at that time and Hao Yun behaved very gentlemanly.

But since it was a photo and it was still, it looked like Hao Yun was holding it and not letting go.

The two look very close and sweet.

As soon as these photos were released, they were immediately reposted and circulated by many media outlets, and netizens were also excited.

Oh, you two are already together.

Why didn’t you tell us earlier? We couldn’t sleep because of you two.

It's over, I'm heartbroken, my girlfriend An Xiaoxi was snatched away by that bastard Hao Yun.

Hao Yun couldn't stand the actions of this old man Zhang Jizhong. Didn't his elder brother say that he would wait until An Xiaoxi came of age before hyping her up?

There are still two months left, you beast!

After returning from Taiwan, Hao Yun immediately clarified in front of the media, saying that the two were auditioning at the time and it was normal and a serious exchange on the set.

Anyway, the explanation must be given, but I don’t know whether you believe it or not.

The first week box office came out very quickly.

In mainland China, the total box office for the three days of Friday, Saturday and Sunday was 2380 million. The box office on the third day, Sunday, even exceeded million, only slightly lower than "A World Without Thieves".

The main thing is that the marketing effect has begun to show, and word of mouth has also fermented.

"Is the data accurate?" The box office results in the mainland are very encouraging. Hao Yun is particularly satisfied. He only asks the big guys to give more strength and completely suppress piracy.

However, the box office figures in Hong Kong and Taiwan according to the information Ning Hao gave him were far beyond his expectations.

"It should be accurate. The most Yang Dengkui did was to prevent people from stealing the box office. He wouldn't go so far as to spend his own money to launder the money. He only holds a 10% share. How could he launder % of the money?" Although Ning Hao also felt it was outrageous, he firmly believed that this was because His Royal Highness the Crown Prince of the Overspending Sect was extremely blessed and had been favored by the goddess of fate.

"The Hong Kong box office has exceeded 1500 million Hong Kong dollars, and the Taiwan box office has exceeded 1 million New Taiwan dollars. This is going to be a miracle. According to this trend, the box office in Taiwan must at least exceed 4 million New Taiwan dollars. Is Jay Chou so arrogant?"

Hao Yun even felt jealous.

If Jay Chou is responsible for the Taiwan market and Chen Guanxi is responsible for the Hong Kong market, he is responsible for the mainland market.

Then he won against Chen Guanxi and lost to Jay Chou.

The first week box office in mainland China was 2380 million RMB, the first week box office in Hong Kong was 1600 million RMB, and the first week box office in Taiwan was 2700 million RMB.

However, considering the scale of Hong Kong's film market, Hao Yun's victory seems particularly humble.

"He is indeed arrogant, but I think it is still a problem of the content of the movie." Ning Hao thought for a long time and analyzed the reasons. He said: "Their economy is developing faster and higher education is widely popularized. Watching this movie is very immersive. Many people here don't have any memories of their school days, and the atmosphere does not support campus romance. It has only developed in the past few years that this market has gradually emerged."

"With such a strong lineup, such intensive publicity, and such a large population, we are still not as good as them. Sigh." Hao Yun was unwilling to accept the result but there was nothing he could do.

"Think about it from another angle. You are the boss, you own 10%, and An Xiaoxi also owns 10%. You are the biggest winner this time."

Ning Hao is very good at understanding the emperor's mind. In ancient times, he would at least be a factory manager.

"That makes sense. Let's not dwell on it. I've finished my guzheng exams and have finished recording my album. I'm going to go film with Uncle Jiang tomorrow. If there's anything you can do, help me solve it."

Hao Yun explained the situation and stopped worrying about the box office issue.
