Chapter 335: No. 1 in box office in Chinese film history!
February 3, the first day of the Spring Festival.
Hei Gu’s The Wonderful Heroes and Andy Lau’s I Know Women’s Hearts are released.
The two movies have their own merits. One is a Hong Kong comedy about family reunion, and the other is the first collaboration between Andy Lau and Gong Li. I am looking forward to it.
Both Huayi and Yinghuang hope that these two movies can give your name a little threat, preferably to crush it to death!
However, on this day, Li Mingyang suddenly posted on Weibo, announcing that the preparations for the "Your Name" concert have been completed, the stage is being set up, and the lottery will begin today.
Then on this day, Li Mingyang actually checked the Weibo comment section and raffled off concert tickets based on netizens’ ticket stubs.
Movie ticket replacement is issued through the Maoyan platform. Maoyan backstage has ticket stubs for ticket replacement.
Li Mingyang will draw a netizen here, and Maoyan will send a text message to the netizen who won the prize, notifying him of his win, and asking him to log in to Maoyan to check the concert tickets.
As more and more netizens win concert tickets, they show off their concert tickets on Weibo.
Your Name's box office skyrocketed!
Ignoring the huge mountain of piracy, it grossed 48 million at the box office that day, beating the new films of Hei Gu and Andy Lau.
It was at this time that the industry discovered that ticket reimbursement was not a panacea.
Wonderful Heroes and I Know a Woman's Heart both have tickets, and the tickets are as low as 5.9 yuan...
However, the audience didn't buy it at all...
The most important thing is that young people don't buy it. When a family of three goes to the cinema, parents focus on their children.
Your Name's bright images, novel themes, and magical special effects are more attractive to young people, not to mention the possibility of winning concert tickets by watching the movie.
In the new year, who doesn’t want to be blessed with good luck and good luck?
Fantastic Heroes: I Know A Woman’s Heart Is In Front of Your Name, There Is No Way to Fight Back, which shocked all the filmmakers in the industry.
Due to the lottery of movie tickets, the popularity is so great that your name will have a huge boost in the box office.
Li Mingyang announced that night that he would hold an additional game and draw another 50,000 cards!
For a time, all the theater chains took notice and frantically added films to your name. More than half of the IMAX theaters across the country have given your name.
On February 4th, your name will be ranked as high as 70%, dominating the Spring Festival period.
At noon that day, China Film announced your name, breaking 900 million!
After 11 o'clock in the evening, China Film announced your name again, breaking 950 million.
Famous Entertainment.
"Oh my god! The box office has gone crazy. It has increased by more than 100 million in two days!" Jing Tian said in disbelief.
"Be gentle and don't press the bones." Li Mingyang lay on the chair and patted Jing Tian's hand. His hand was too strong and he pinched the bones directly. Suffered.
The main reason is that he is too busy. He has slept for more than two hours in the past two days. In addition to eating and drinking, he has been drawing prizes.
"Mingyang, the box office momentum is so good, we should stop paying for tickets, otherwise we won't be able to make much money." Tan Songyun, sitting next to the camera, said.
"That's right! Ticket replenishment is too expensive!" Zhong Xiaoyu agreed.
"In general, it is not a loss. The total box office share between the distributor and the producer is 40%, and 1 billion can be divided into 400 million. Zuo Shandiao and Wang Changtian have promised me to smash me first. Return the money to me and then divide the accounts.”
“Well...that means you didn’t spend any money.”
“It’s another algorithm if you spend 10 yuan and lose 6. "Buy."
"It's so complicated...Husband, how much money will you make in the end?" Jing Tian asked curiously.
"I don't know." Li Mingyang shook his head.
"It shouldn't be difficult to calculate..."
"That's too difficult to calculate. No one can calculate it clearly now." Li Mingyang stood up from the chair, his feet went numb. "Old Wu, if anyone questions the fairness of the lottery, please post the recorded lottery process online."
"Yes."
Li Mingyang left the office and came outside. The financial room was crowded with people, the sound of phones, keyboards, and calculators came and went.
This year has been too busy...
Mingyang Entertainment did not have a holiday during the Spring Festival this year.
Huayi and Guangguang didn’t even have a holiday, so they had no time to rest at all.
It's really like fighting. If you take a nap, your home may be robbed.
Huayi and Guangwang are at loggerheads. Huayi is putting pressure on Maoyan in the United Cinemas, and Guangwang is helping Jiang Wen compete for the annual crown.
Li Mingyang came to the conference room and discussed the filming plan for the second season of Running Brothers with Ye Xiangdong and others.
Talked for more than half an hour.
Cai Chongxin called suddenly, hoping that he could hold two more concerts and draw prizes for two more days.
The sponsors of your name concert are Meituan, Youku and Alibaba.
Ali is the largest sponsor.
The three companies don't care about the ticket price at all. Meituan wants the ticket market, Youku wants live broadcasts, and Alibaba wants to promote Taobao.
The higher the popularity, the better, and the more viewers, the better.
For this reason, the three companies were not only willing to sponsor the concert, but also gave Li Mingyang 5 million as a courtesy fee.
"Mr. Cai, I smoked for two days in a row. My feet and hands are numb from smoking and I can't smoke anymore."
"Did you smoke manually?" Cai Chongxin said in surprise.
"Aren't you worried about others saying that you are operating behind the scenes? I even recorded a video specifically."
"Haha, you are still so cautious. It doesn't matter. No one dares to target it. Just do it in the background. This procedure should be very simple. , I'll contact Wang Xing."
"I'm a little busy..."
"Let's run? It's okay, it's only for two days, that's it."
"Hey... I died so fast." Now things are getting serious... I can't sing! It all depends on charging!
One game was easy to handle.
Two games is already the limit.
Four games?
I can’t sleep with Juanjuan in my arms every day!
Li Mingyang was in trouble.
Now you can only count on the box office lottery and your singing skills...
...
On February 5, Your Name box office hit 46 million in a single day. , with a total box office of 9.96, just shy of one billion.
Early in the morning on February 6, China Film Group announced that your name has exceeded 1 billion!
Your Name became the third domestic film to gross over 1 billion at the box office.
After getting the honor of being a billionaire director, Li Mingyang didn’t want to rush forward. If he tried again, he would lose money.
Wang Changtian also had the same idea.
That morning, Li Mingyang posted on Weibo: "Your Name has a box office of over 1 billion, although... but..., I announced that Mingyang Entertainment will restart the One Punch Man series and launch One Punch Man this summer. Superman 3.”
After posting this Weibo, Li Mingyang breathed out heavily, “It’s over”
Li Mingyang thought it was over.
The industry also feels that the journey of your name has come to an end.
However, the box office miracle of Your Name continues.
On February 6, Your Name, which lost its ticket replacement, was still strong at the box office with the support of the concert lottery, with a hit of 31 million.
After losing the ticket rebate and the blessing of the concert lottery, your name, like an awakening dragon, swept 91 million in four days!
It broke the box office milestones of If You Are the One 2 and Let the Bullets Fly in one day.
Two months after its release, like the natural disaster meteor in Your Name, it hit the mainland film market with a sinkhole of 1.118 billion!
It became the first box office in Chinese film history!
On the last day, when it was released, the single-day box office was still 17.5 million!
The box office potential has obviously not bottomed out yet, but it was released, shocking netizens.
"Your name is not postponed. What a tragedy for Chinese-language movies!"
"There is something wrong. Bad movies are postponed, but good movies are not postponed. What's the truth?"
"Domestic production The movie is about to be finished! Avatar has been released for more than three months and has grossed more than 1.3 billion. Why isn't Your Name postponed? >
“Sure enough, the moon abroad is rounder, and the fate of domestic movies is also fate!”
More than a month ago, Li Mingyang planted the seeds of "Judas Capital's invasion of domestic entertainment", which caused discussion across the Internet.
Your Name has a box office of nearly 20 million, but it was canceled, completely igniting the anger of netizens.
The public opinion on the Internet is overwhelming, and they are all criticizing the film-related departments, worshiping foreigners, and being invaded by culture.
Even the mainstream media has stepped in and published articles to support your name.
For a time, your name rose to the level of the nation.
The crowd was excited and complaints arose.
Faced with this kind of unorganized and undisciplined public opinion problem, the government usually directly suppresses it.
But this time is different.
China Film, the Film Bureau, and other relevant departments not only did not suppress public opinion, but mainstream media also followed suit in reporting.
The industry is at a loss, and there is a lot of turmoil. It always feels like something big is about to happen.
The person most affected by this incident was Li Bingbing.
Because of her sisterly relationship with Deng Wendi, it was publicized by the media and became a hot topic on the Internet.
So she can only hide on the set this year and give up the great opportunity to make money by making announcements at the end of the year.
There are too many people on the Internet. As long as the exposure is reduced, when netizens get tired of seeing it and the limelight passes, everything will be fine.
After finally waiting for the news to pass, Li Bingbing was preparing to make money. The topic of Judah Capital’s invasion of domestic entertainment was once again hotly debated.
"Preventing someone from getting rich is like killing your parents. I didn't provoke you! Why are you trying to harm me!" Li Bingbing covered her face, tears streaming down her face again.
The market situation this year is much better than last year. As the new year approaches, she received dozens of notices, all of them ran down and easily earned more than 20 million!
Due to risk issues, many advertisers would rather exchange her without paying a deposit.
More than 20 million! If you say no, it’s gone.
Finally, the news was over, and he was able to make money. Public opinion in Judah returned with a vengeance, and it also aroused the hatred of the people.
Those advertisers were scared away again...and lost tens of millions.
Not making any money is not the worst thing. The worst thing is that my good sister Deng Wendi promised her good resources, but withheld them and asked her to wait.
What are you waiting for?
When the box office war is over, Wendi Deng wants to see how Li Mingyang blooms in adversity.
After hearing the words "Adversity blooms, flowers bloom", Li Bingbing suddenly realized that her good sister's stay in China this year was not out of homesickness, she was here to inspect Li Mingyang.
"Sister, don't cry, we have to meet someone later." Li Xue patted her sister on the shoulder and reminded her.
"What's wrong with me crying? I'm so miserable, what's wrong with crying?!"
Li Bingbing said this, but still took out a tissue, sucked away the tears, and gave it to herself Touch up your makeup so that no one can tell you have cried.
She has the image of a strong woman to the outside world, but she cannot let others see her cry.
Of course...if she cries and gets Li Mingyang to let her go, she will definitely cry to death.
But this is unrealistic even if you think about it.
The relationship between Huayi and Guangguang is getting bigger and bigger.
Wang Changtian and Li Mingyang will never give up when they finally get the opportunity to bully Huayi’s first sister, Huayi’s cash cow.
