Chapter 31 Do you know Fan Binbin? Please vote
The next day, Zhang Chen was woken up by a rapid knock on the door before he could wake up.
After opening the door, Cao Bingkun rushed in furiously.
"Chenzi, what's wrong with your cell phone? Teacher Fu can't contact you. All the calls are coming to me."
Zhang Chen looked at his cell phone and sure enough, there were dozens of missed calls. Incoming call.
He was too tired last night, so he turned it into silent mode before going to bed, so he couldn't hear incoming calls.
Zhang Chen quickly called Teacher Fu back.
"Sorry, Teacher Fu, my phone was set to vibrate and I didn't hear it."
"Well, I have nothing to do. I just heard that the box office on the first day was more than 4 million, right? Really? "
At this time, box office statistics are not smart yet. For people like Zhang Chen, the publisher will specifically notify them.
But others can't and can only watch the news from the media the next day or watch the revelations in movie theaters.
In movie forums, there are good people who report the box office of each movie. They may also be people from the distributor. After all, box office is also a kind of publicity. If the box office is good, many people can't help but be curious. Went to have a look.
“Well, it’s indeed more than 4 million. To be more precise, it’s 4.6 million...”
“That’s great. You’ve made back your money at the box office in just one and a half days, and the rest is There is no pressure anymore.”
Teacher Fu is very pleased that the student’s film is a success, and he is happier than anyone else.
In the directing department, the success rate is really low.
China National Theater and Nortel both have star classes, but they are from the acting department.
There are really few famous directors in the directing department. Occasionally, famous directors from Nortel come from the Department of Photography and the Department of Literature, which is really embarrassing.
"Thank you, teacher."
After hanging up the teacher's phone, Zhang Chen was about to check who had missed the calls when the blue screen of 8250 lit up again.
The caller ID showed it was Manager Dong from Guangguang.

The other party immediately asked anxiously: "Zhang Chen, do you know Fan Binbin?"
Fan Binbin? Zhang Chen was a little confused.
Fan Jiuyi?
"Yes, I know her, but she doesn't know me. What's wrong?"
Zhang Chen thought he was very humorous, but the other person didn't get his point at all.
"Then why did she help you?"
"Huh? Help me? Why did you help me?"
"You don't know?"
"What do you know?"
Manager Dong on the opposite side was obviously angry: "Where are you now?"
"Uh, hotel."
"Then Now turn on the TV.”
Zhang Chen obediently turned on the TV, which was playing entertainment news, and the reporter was interviewing Fan Binbin:
"Ms. Fan, someone photographed you watching a movie in the cinema yesterday and published the photo. Is it really you in the photo?" The assistant suddenly wanted to watch a movie, and I happened to have nothing to do, so I took her there. "
"Oh, it turned out to be you. I thought it was a netizen's P-picture."
"Hehehe, no, I really went to see a movie, but I didn't expect to be seen by fans accidentally."
When Fan Binbin first debuted, her relationship with the media was very poor. She was having dinner with her friends. When a reporter photographed her and said she was dating, Fan Binbin was so angry that she kicked the reporter.
So in those years, she was blacklisted by the entire Internet.
Later, I gradually came back to my senses, took the initiative to repair the relationship with the media, and gave gifts to reporters at the scene. The situation gradually improved.
Now is the time for her to change. The reporters interviewing her are all smart people. Of course they have to do something after receiving the gift.
He thought Fan Binbin had deliberately arranged to go to the movie, so he took the initiative and asked:
"Is your friend participating in or investing in this movie?"
Fan Binbin was stunned for a moment, then understood, and said with a smile: "No, I'm just going to watch a movie."
The reporter laughed secretly in his heart, thinking he had seen through their scheme, and continued to pass on the topic: "Oh, So what do you think of the movie? ""I think..."
Fan Binbin knew that the reporter had misunderstood, but it didn't hurt.
She tilted her head and thought for a moment. It seemed that there was nothing at stake, so she decided to tell the truth: "The movie was quite good. The only bad thing was that I had to leave early because I was recognized by the fans. I didn't See the ending.”
Seeing this, Zhang Chen was stunned.
Why does Fan Binbin help promote the movie?
Manager Dong called again: "You really don't know Fan Binbin?"
"True, more real than pearls."
"Are you sure?"< br>
"Definitely, definitely, and definitely."
"Then why does she want to help you?"
"How do I know?"
Zhang Chen wants to know the reason more than anyone else , if it is related to him and he still hides it and doesn't use it, isn't there something wrong with his brain?
“Okay.” Manager Dong said he believed it for the time being.
"But this is a good thing. No matter why, the popularity of "Dark Invasion" has indeed increased. You don't know, yesterday's first-day box office, coupled with Fan Binbin's incident, the theater chain deliberately increased our film schedule, including "Troy" Many shows have been given to us, hahaha~~"
"It's indeed good news, so how much can we get at the box office today?"
"It's hard to say, but it's definitely 6 million. Yes, although Fan Binbin is popular, she is black and popular. I am not sure whether the popularity can be translated into box office."
"You have to keep up with the promotion."
"You don't need to do this. Teaching, we are professionals.”
The most important thing for movie promotion is to be willing to spend money. The most classic case in Hollywood, "The Ghost Story" cost only 10,000 US dollars, but the box office reached an astonishing 100 million. Many people thought it was a miracle.
But I don’t know that Paramount actually spent 10 million US dollars on promotion. If it were replaced by Lionsgate, it would never be possible to spend so much money on promotion, and the box office would definitely not reach 100 million. to this extent.
Zhang Chen was afraid of the light and was reluctant to spend money on publicity, but he didn't know that Manager Dong had already arranged it. Later on, Enlight Pictures will respond and provide a reserved venue for Fan Binbin to watch the rest of the movie in its entirety, and use her popularity to create another wave of speculation.
At this time, Zhang Chen had the opportunity to check his phone. Most of the missed calls were from his parents, classmates and teachers, and the rest were from the crew.
Some people sent text messages to express congratulations when they saw that the phone call could not be reached. Zhang Chen replied one by one before calling his parents.
"Dad, Mom, my phone was on silent last night and I didn't hear the call."
"You kid, you made me and your mother worried."
"Haha, I'm so tired... "
"Get out of the way and let me have a word with my son..."
Mother Zhang's family status is obviously higher than that of Father Zhang. After grabbing the phone, her tone became gentle again: " Xiaochen, I read news reports, the box office was 4.6 million..."
"That's 4.6 million at the box office on the first day." Zhang's father reminded from the side, and his wife immediately gave him a look.
"I'm talking to my son, don't interrupt."
Father Zhang looked aggrieved, and I knew that you women just lied to our men about how they changed after giving birth to a child.
“Yes, Mom, 4.6 million.”
“How much will the final box office be?”
"I guess it's more than 30 million." Zhang Chen reported a conservative figure, which was also the box office he expected.
Anything over 100 million is just a dream. This was in 2004, and more than 10 million would be considered a big sale.
“More than 30 million, so much? My dear, your dad’s monthly salary is only 2,000. One movie of yours can equal your dad’s work for several lifetimes. My son is really amazing.”
Mother Zhang is very proud of her excellent genes. She received countless phone calls yesterday, all praising her son.
Those people originally went to the cinema because of their reputation, but they didn’t expect the movie to be quite good.
Zhang's father received more phone calls, all of them praising his family for producing an artist.
Father Zhang and mother Zhang were really proud and felt the changes in their son after he became successful.
