Episode【293】: The Amazing Box Office on the First Day

To be honest, Zhong Cheng is very confident about "Crazy Stone".

However, Zhong Cheng is still a little nervous now. Zhong Cheng is not sure what kind of box office results "Crazy Stone" can achieve.

In the memory of my previous life, the investment in "Crazy Stone" was very low, only 3 million banknotes.

It is said that there was not even regular shooting equipment at the time, so it was all shot on DV. Later, he was spotted by the king Liu Dehua. He became the producer of "Crazy Stone" and made a plan to support new directors. Lin Hao became famous with "Crazy Stone" and has made a name for himself in commercial films ever since. head.

In the previous life, "Crazy Stone" invested 3 million soft girl banknotes, but the box office reached 23 million soft girl banknotes. The Chinese film industry at that time was not like it was in 2010, when the box office revenue easily reached hundreds of millions or billions.

At that time, the box office alone had already made many filmmakers jealous.

The most important thing is that their investment is only 3 million, it is simply a money-making machine!

Also, "Crazy Stone" happened to coincide with the 2006 World Cup in Germany, and the box office was also affected to some extent. If it were not for this special period, the box office would definitely be higher.

And in my past life memories, some people kept saying that if "Crazy Stone" had been filmed a few years later, the box office would have easily exceeded one billion. "Crazy Stone" is much better than some subsequent movies that easily exceeded one billion in box office.

And now in this "Crazy Stone", Zhong Cheng and the others have invested more, shot more carefully and carefully, and the requirements for details, plot and acting skills, etc. have been more refined. Zhong Cheng is confident.

However, as for the current market, Zhong Cheng is not very clear about it. He doesn't know what the differences and gaps are between this market and his previous life. Zhong Cheng doesn't know much about it, so he is still a little uneasy.

Isabella George was also a little nervous at this time, and she kept looking at Zhong Cheng.

Zhong Cheng smiled slightly and said, "I have confidence in this movie!"

Zhong Cheng's investment in the movie "Crazy Stone" reached 6 million soft girl banknotes. Although it is not a lot, it is incomparable with those movies that will easily invest tens of millions or hundreds of millions in the future.

But this is the first movie of [Zhong Cheng Pictures], so it’s good to make it like this.

Although everyone heard what Zhong Cheng said, they were still worried.

Especially Lin Hao, who was well-known in the field of literary and artistic films before. This is his first time making a commercial film. Most directors nowadays are making commercial films, and the future will definitely be dominated by commercial film directors. It's false to say that he doesn't want to enter the ranks of commercial directors. He even values ​​it very much.

At this time, Lin Hao was very nervous. He was sitting there feeling uneasy, as if he was waiting for his transcript after taking the college entrance examination, or as if he was waiting for the birth of his child outside the delivery room...

Lin Hao's hands were clenched together until they turned white! But Lin Hao himself didn't realize it, his eyes were empty.

Huang Bo, who was sitting next to Lin Hao, was equally nervous. He had previously had a dream of being a singer. He left his hometown Qindao very early and came to the capital to pursue music. He even formed a band called Blue Wind Sand. But one team failed to become famous, and he himself was disheartened.

Later, Huang Bo had to give up his music dream and returned to Qindao, where he started his own business and opened a factory, but he went bankrupt after not working for long.

Huang Bo was unhappy in his hometown. The life he lived was not what he wanted. Later, despite the opposition of his family, he ran to the capital to continue his music dream.

However, a lot happened during this period, and he later participated in Guan Hu's movie "Get in the Car, Let's Go." This movie did not go to theaters, but went directly to TV and movie channels. With this film, he won the "Best TV Movie Award" at the Golden Rooster Award.

But this award did not help Huang Bo's fame. Later, at the age of 28, he was admitted to the film and television dubbing department of Beijing Film Academy. He has been engaged in dubbing for many movies, TV animations, but rarely had the opportunity to come to the front of the screen.

Huang Bo has always had a star dream in his heart, and he has been working hard and struggling. But he didn't have any chance, and at this time [Zhong Cheng Pictures] found him and wanted to sign him to become an actor of [Zhong Cheng Pictures].

Huang Bo was very excited at the time. Under such circumstances, he participated in "Crazy Stone". Although he is not the protagonist in this film, he is also a supporting actor with a lot of roles. This can be regarded as his first official step into the film industry!

He is very eager to succeed, and if the movie succeeds, everyone will be happy.

If this movie is unsuccessful, Huang Bo's heart will be shaken. If he can't get any results, his boss' mother hopes that he can return to Qindao and live a normal life, and stop wandering outside.

Of course Huang Bo doesn't want to leave his favorite career just like this. He is praying that this movie will be successful, it must be successful!

Huang Bo was restless, standing up and sitting up and down so many times that his neck almost broke.

Huang Bo muttered in his heart: "Why aren't you here yet? Why aren't the box office numbers coming out on the first day?"

Guo Tao and Xu Zheng are better. These two are already somewhat famous and have participated in some TV series, especially Xu Zheng. However, they still don't have many opportunities to participate in movies, and they are more or less nervous.

They are still very concerned about the box office of this drama, success or failure depends on this!

In addition to these people, there were also some of the main creative staff of "Crazy Stone" who were also very nervous. They looked up at the clock on the wall, watching the time passing by second by second, and sighing. Why is time so slow?

Zhong Cheng looked at the people in this room and smiled in his heart.

Zhong Cheng came to Huang Bo's side, patted Huang Bo's shoulder gently and said, "Don't be too nervous. We have all seen the movie. What do you think of this movie?"

Huang Bo was stunned for a moment and glanced at Zhong Cheng, a little confused.

It took Huang Bo a while to react, and he said immediately, but even he didn't expect that his voice was trembling: "Ah...I, I, I...the movie is very...very good! It's funny and beautiful!"

Zhong Cheng chuckled and said, "Since you think the movie is so good, I think the fans will think so too. Don't worry, you will become famous!"

Huang Bo knew that Zhong Cheng was encouraging him, and he was very grateful.

Huang Bo already knew that he was able to join [Zhong Cheng Pictures] and participate in this movie entirely because of Zhong Cheng. Zhong Cheng liked him and named him to sign and participate in this movie. And it is said that he has prepared several starring roles in the future.

Now the entire [Zhong Cheng Pictures] knows that the boss wants to praise him Huang Bo!

He Huang Bo is not that kind of young guy, he is not handsome, and he looks like a very ordinary person now. Why does the boss have to praise him?

Huang Bo only has one thing to be grateful for, his heart is full of the kind of kindness that he has learned from others, and he is grateful that a scholar would die for a confidant!

At this time, the boss came to comfort him, which made Huang Bo feel even more grateful. Huang Bo knew that Zhong Cheng was telling him to relax and stop being nervous, and was joking.

Huang Bo was very excited and grateful. He nodded towards Zhong Cheng and said, "Thank you, boss!"

Zhong Cheng chuckled, then turned around and said to everyone: "Don't be too nervous, everyone, I believe you!"

Lin Hao and others also smiled at Zhong Cheng and said nothing more!

And at this moment, a burst of rapid scripting came from the corridor outside the door, heading toward the room where everyone was from far and near. Everyone in the room was shocked!

coming! finally come!

People in the room were very excited and looked up at the door. Their faces were full of expectation and eagerness.

However, when the footsteps got closer and closer, everyone was startled and suddenly became afraid again. They were afraid that someone would come and spread the news. They were afraid that the box office would not meet their expectations and bring news of failure.

Everyone's faces turned aside, and they were uneasy. Their forward steps stopped instantly, and they even pulled back, not daring to move forward!

Worry, endless worry!

Lin Hao couldn't help rubbing his hands at this time. It seemed that no sound could be heard around him. He could only hear the crazy beating heartbeat in his chest!

Huang Bo was also very nervous and worried. He suddenly felt like he was waiting for the transcript to be issued after the college entrance examination. He was in a state of anxiety, hoping to see the results as soon as possible, but also afraid of seeing the results.

There was no sound in the room, and everyone held their breath, waiting for God's judgment.

Zhong Cheng's eyes also tightened, staring at the door. He didn't have too many worries in his heart. Even if this drama didn't work, there would be another one. Zhong Cheng is very confident in this group of people, and he is also very confident in the future film market.

At this moment, the door to the room was still open, but the hurried and excited voice had already come out: "It's popular, it's popular, I'm popular, "Crazy Stone" is popular! "Crazy Stone" is a hit!" "

Everyone in the room was startled, each one stunned, as if they didn't quite believe what they heard.

Lin Hao and Huang Bo looked at each other in confusion, and Lin Hao said in confusion to Huang Bo: "It seems like we are on fire outside, right?"

Huang Bo was also slightly startled, and said in a daze: "It seems so, right?"

Others around Huang Bo also had the same expression. They didn't quite believe what they heard. They were still doubting themselves, very doubtful.

At this moment, with a bang, the people in the room were pushed away.

An impatient young man rushed in. He roared very excitedly: "Boss, boss, we are popular. "Crazy Stone" is a big hit. We are popular!"

Zhong Cheng was overjoyed and immediately stepped forward, staring closely at the man who came to announce the good news. He immediately asked: "What is the situation? Tell me clearly? Tell me clearly! How much is the box office on the first day?"

Lin Hao, Huang Bo and others immediately gathered around, staring closely at the visitor.

The visitor's name is Han Tao, an employee of [Zhong Cheng Pictures]. He was sent to inquire about the first-day box office of "Crazy Stone". Now that he is back, this is enough to explain everything.

Seeing the attention of so many people, especially the attention of his boss, he took a deep breath, and then said excitedly: "Boss, 2.5 million. The box office of "Crazy Stone" on the first day reached an astonishing 2.5 million. We’re on fire, we’re on fire!”

The box office on the first day was 2.5 million, so the box office in a week can reach more than 10 million, and the box office in a month can reach more than 40 million. By the time "Crazy Stone" is removed from the shelves, the box office will definitely reach 6,000 Around 10,000.

If it can really reach 60 million, it will really be a big hit!

You have to know that the investment in "Crazy Stone" was only 6 million soft girl banknotes, and the publicity was less than 8 million soft girl banknotes. If the box office can really reach 60 million, it will really make a fortune!

Zhong Cheng shouted excitedly: "Beautiful! It really lives up to expectations!"

Huang Bo hugged Lin Hao tightly and roared excitedly: "It's popular, we're popular! Director Lin, we're going to be popular, we're going to succeed!"

Lin Hao also excitedly hugged Huang Bo, Xu Zheng and others, patted the backs of Huang Bo and Xu Zheng with both hands, and kept opening his mouth, but no sound came out...
