Chapter 531 Miracle, Big News
"Parallel Cohabitation" won 100 million box office in the first week of its release, and it maintained a strong momentum in the second week.
After winning 9.2 million on Monday, it reversed the decline on Tuesday and directly broke 10 million in a single day.
In the next 5 days, "Parallel Cohabitation" continued to reverse the decline, and the single-day box office on Sunday actually won 48 million.
In other words, in the second week, "Parallel Cohabitation" directly reached 120 million in the box office for a whole week.
After 11 days of official release, the box office of "Parallel Cohabitation" has exceeded 200 million.
From the beginning, everyone's box office forecast for "Parallel Cohabitation" was only 100 million, and then the box office forecast was 200 million, then 500 million, and then 600 million. After this week's strong box office, the current box office forecast for "Parallel Cohabitation" has reached 800 million.
"This is the word-of-mouth effect. At present, it seems that "Parallel Cohabitation" can go long-term."
"Yes, there are several movies released next week, especially the big movies in December, but as long as "Parallel Cohabitation" maintains such a strong performance, I think the box office may really reach 800 million."
"Who would have thought that a movie that many people think is bound to fail would actually break 800 million at the box office??"
...
If everyone was amazed when "Parallel Cohabitation" broke 100 million in the first week, then in the second week, everyone was already impressed.
Yes.
Envy, jealousy and hatred.
Again, when a movie breaks 100 million, it will be quite difficult to move forward.
Especially when a movie increases by 100 million, it is out of reach. Not only 100 million, but even 10 million or 1 million is difficult in many cases.
Otherwise, why do many movies stop at 900 million, 1.9 billion, or 2.9 billion? ?
Do they not want to go further? ?
Because it's too damn hard.
For this reason, whether it's "Going to Heaven" or the previous "Sunspots", the box office is ridiculously strong. After all, one is 30+ and the other is 2 billion, which is really too strong.
It's precisely because of this that many people really think of the previous two movies when watching the movie "Parallel Cohabitation".
At that time, except for "Sunspots", everyone really thought it would be a hit, who would think that "Going to Heaven" would be a hit? ?
Of course, even for "Sunspots", how many people think that the box office can reach 2 billion? ? ?
At the beginning, Lin Xing became the top brother of art films with these two movies, and then many people also thought that Lin Xing was a lucky star.
Now it seems that Lin Xing's lucky star gold content continues to soar.
In the 10 days since the release of "Parallel Cohabitation", Lin Xing, Yang Tian and other leading actors have been running road shows from one stop to another.
It's really tiring.
But everyone was excited, excited, and excited. They even thought that if they went to one stop of the roadshow, the box office of "Parallel Cohabitation" might increase a little.
In 10 days, Lin Xing went to 10 cities, and today the first round of roadshows was over.
"I'll leave it to you next."
Back in the imperial capital, Lin Xing smiled at Yang Tian and said, "I'm afraid you'll have to work hard in the second round."
Yang Tian shook his head and said, "What kind of hard work is this? If the box office of "Parallel Cohabitation" can increase a little every day, I'm willing to keep running."
After all, this "Parallel Cohabitation" really announced the recovery of Yang Tian's career.
For this reason, let alone another half month of hard work, even Yang Tian can run for another month.
"I think at least in the next half month, the scheduling of "Parallel Cohabitation" can still be maintained at more than 10%. Although there are several movies released this Friday, overall we can completely go the long way..."
Meng Yan was also in a good mood at this time.
She knew that she had made the right bet.
To be honest, Meng Yan is even looking forward to the sci-fi movie "Death on Earth", because Meng Yan actually invested in this movie. Not only that, Meng Yan will be one of the distributors of "Death on Earth".
The reason why it is one of the distributors is that the investment in "Death on Earth" is too large. At this time, it is necessary to share the risk and even find some distribution companies to jointly distribute it.
But it's still early, so there is no rush for the time being.
"Axing, are you going to go back today?"
Wei Fei asked Lin Xing: "If I go back today, I will go back with you."
"Sister Fei, Sun Feng called me. The filming of "Death on Earth" is going smoothly, and the three groups are all working simultaneously, so you go back first..."
Lin Xing shook his head and said: "I will have a road show in the capital tomorrow morning, and I will attend the celebration banquet of "Jin Yiwei" in the evening."
Now the online movie "Jin Yiwei" has begun to turn free. After all, it has been about 100 days since it was put on the shelves on August 5, which basically exceeds the expectation of charging.
At present, Penguin Video has happily transferred all the subsequent profits of this online movie to Lin Xing Studio.
After all, they had signed an agreement before, which basically means that after deducting the costs, all the profits belong to Lin Xing.
It's more than a small goal.
Situ Hui was still a little regretful when she was chatting with her husband a few days ago, after all, the money was too much.
If she had known this earlier, she would have asked for a 10% share anyway.
Feng Wei was very open-minded about this: "I can't let you take all the benefits. Just think about it, if Lin Xing didn't join "Jinyiwei", would this network be so powerful?"
What's more, Situ Hui also made a fortune by selling the copyright.
At present, the filming of the movie "Jinyiwei" has already started. Situ Hui also invested in this movie, and he will just make money when the time comes.
You know, even the Internet has almost 200 million, so how come this movie has to reach 1 billion, right? ? ?
What's more, this time the movie "Jinyiwei" has changed a lot of people. The three leading actors are all movie stars, and even the actresses are popular.
Put it this way.
The movie version of "Jinyiwei" has all the famous actors on the Internet replaced.
This is actually the current situation in the industry. Just like after some TV series become popular in the first season, most of the actors will change in the second season.
Not only that, isn’t this also true for movies? ?
Many movie sequels feature various Cypriots.
Lin Xing was indeed not very satisfied, but he couldn't decide anything, so he also declined the invitation for the movie version of "The Golden Guard". Even though the salary offered was quite high, Lin Xing declined.
First of all, he didn't want to waste his popularity, because the network had already filmed it, and there was no point in copying the movie version one-to-one.
Secondly, he is not happy with the ruthlessness of capital.
If there is an opportunity in the future, Lin Xing will be his own capital.
This time, Lin Xing asked Ding Chunling to arrange the celebration banquet for "Jinyiwei". Some crew members could not come, so Lin Xing asked Ding Chunling to send them red envelopes one by one.
After all, workers are not like celebrities who can participate in activities everywhere. Even attending an award ceremony is extremely popular.
Because of this, many migrant workers really don’t have time to come.
Then just give them red envelopes.
Apart from these migrant workers, others have time to come, especially since everyone is thinking of getting together again. What if there are other opportunities? ?
Because of this, Lin Xing is preparing to celebrate together tomorrow.
Of course, we still have to attend the last road show before celebrating.
The next day, the single-day box office of "Parallel Cohabitation" dropped sharply again on Monday, only 5 million.
But no one was disappointed, because everyone really felt that "Parallel Cohabitation" was going to have a long-term future.
Today, "Parallel Cohabitation" is the last show of the last round of road shows.
Go from the Imperial Capital, come from the Imperial Capital.
"Thank you everyone."
Lin Xing said to the crowd: "Next, our "Parallel Living" will start the second round of road shows, but I have no way to participate, so I hope we can have a chance to meet again next time."
At this time, an audience member asked: "Brother Xing, are you ready to go back to film "Death on Earth"?"
Lin Xing nodded slightly: "Yes."
"I would like to ask when will "Death on Earth" be released to everyone? I saw someone breaking the news before that this movie has been planned to be shot for several years, and some people also said that this movie is going to be divided into three parts??"
Some viewers asked with concern.
In fact, not only the audience, but also some in the industry are paying attention to this matter.
You must know that the door to science fiction movies has actually been closed a long time ago, but Lin Xing is actually willing to reopen it. Let alone how good he is in filming, just relying on Lin Xing's courage as a science fiction practitioner is very touching.
Especially now that science fiction movies are getting worse each time, everyone is thinking about what if Lin Xing can really give everyone some confidence? ?
But at this time, people said that the filming of "Dead on Earth" was very slow, and that it would take at least several years to film, and even said that it would be divided into three parts, and so on.
Just one thing to say, it seems as if "Death on Earth" is really a movie without any so-called potential. Not to mention, the crew seems to be about to run away at any time.
In this regard, Lin Xing also wanted to use today to explain it.
"First of all, please rest assured that "Death on Earth" is indeed being filmed, and the filming time will be very long, but it is not that this film will not be seen by everyone as everyone said. On the contrary, I think this film will be very popular. See you soon..."
Lin Xing looked at the crowd and said: "And this movie is indeed divided into three parts: upper, middle and lower. We are planning to shoot all three parts in one go, then edit them and prepare to release them one after another..."
Good guy.
No one expected that such a revelation would come out on the last day of the road show of "Parallel Living", or the last day of the last round of road show.
Moreover, the three movies were shot in one go, and they were released after the shooting.
What kind of risk would this be? ?
Especially this is a science fiction movie.
How much did you invest? ?
Since we are talking about breaking news, this news must become bigger and bigger.
And from Lin Xing's point of view, he didn't even need others to break the news, he took the initiative to break the news himself.
You want to know who is qualified to break the news? ?
What's more important is that this is not called breaking news. It is called issuing a statement and holding a press conference.
That's right.
On the day when the first round of road show of "Parallel Living" came to a perfect conclusion, Lin Xing directly confirmed the leaks posted online.
"I don't know how much the final investment of "Death on Earth" will reach, because everyone knows that if a science fiction movie has special effects, it really burns money every second..."
When Lin Xing heard everyone talking about the investment of "Death on Earth", he directly said again that basically there is no upper limit.
To be honest, this is because Lin Xing is currently rich, or he has a rich friend, otherwise others would just think that Lin Xing is bragging.
But now, Lin Xing is really qualified to say this.
After the end of today's road show, the news about "Death on Earth" has already rushed to the hot search list.
"Oh my god, I'm very curious about where Lin Xing got his confidence from?"
"Yes, damn, he's planning to shoot three movies?"
"I've read the original novel of "Death on Earth". It's true that if it's filmed, it can be shot in three parts, but the investment is probably more than 10 billion, and there are certain risks in the release."
"Apart from anything else, most of the current actors have failed. If three movies are shot in one go, it's a bit too risky."
...
"No, why are there still people asking Lin Xing what he relies on? Look at Lin Xing's "Parallel Cohabitation" which is currently being released. Who would have dared to believe it would be successful before?"
"Yes, Yang Tian was brought to fame by Lin Xing, and you're asking why now?"
"I support Lin Xing, not because of anything else, but because Lin Xing has always respected the audience. I think if anyone can save science fiction movies, I think it's only Lin Xing."
"That's right."
...
The discussion about "Death on Earth" is still polarized. After all, no matter from which aspect, shooting three movies in one go is relatively risky.
What's more, the box office of "Parallel Cohabitation" is really unexpected, but this movie is not really related to science fiction.
In the evening, a small celebration banquet for "Jin Yiwei".
"Axing, are you really going to shoot three parts of "Death on Earth" in one go?"
Situ Hui asked Lin Xing the first time she saw her.
You should know that her son also participated in this movie. Situ Hui stayed on the set for a while. She felt that this movie was indeed different from the previous science fiction.
But shooting three parts in one go is too risky.
"Yes, Sister Hui."
Lin Xing nodded gently: "I am going to shoot it all in one go, because this way I can not interrupt..."
At this point, Lin Xing paused and said: "And it may not be three parts, but five parts."
"Five parts??"
Situ Hui was directly confused: "What do you mean??"
