PS: Please vote for recommendations! Please vote for recommendations! Please collect!

Two days later.

Wu Xiaozu asked Jiang Zhiqiang to drag Liang Gaohui and start burning the film copies. Every time he burned, a group of reporters and paparazzi were invited to witness.

The paparazzi happily rushed over to witness the "shock", and both parties had endless fun cooperating.

"Burn a theater every day!" This was the slogan Wu Xiaozu taught them to shout.

Burning copies of one theater every day gradually reduced the screening area of ​​"The Butcher on a Rainy Night". At the same time, the vacated theaters quickly released "Dao Ma Dan".

Some people lamented that Jiang Ershao was a hero because he understood current affairs!

Some people lamented that the Jiang family was indeed inferior!

There will always be people who use various methods to interpret this matter.

Some people sighed secretly.

well!

Have you seen how domineering Princess Jin is!

Even after seven days, they forced people to release their own movies. They also asked people to burn copies in advance to reduce screenings.

There are so many rumors and rumors, who can clearly see the hidden twists and turns inside? It is probably difficult for anyone but the person involved to figure out the truth and lies.

The most important thing in business is making money. Since sometimes it is easier to cooperate than to make money alone, why resist?

Jiahe and Debao joined forces to fight against Princess Jin fiercely. Princess Jin is not stupid. Will they not accept the olive branch offered by the Jiang family at this time?

Do you really think that Zou Wenhuai and Pan Disheng are vegetarians?



The most exciting thing about the movie countdown and burning of copies is the hesitant audience.

The viewers who were still lingering felt that they still had two or three days left to decide whether to watch it or not.

When I watched it this time, I realized that if I don’t watch this “legendary” horror movie, I really won’t have the chance to see its true appearance.

Immediately, a group of curious audiences came to watch the movie.

The huge countdown has reached 5 days, and the colors have become more and more dazzling and abrupt. The general public is always reminded that a "historical" movie is on the road to extinction!

There were long queues and huge crowds in the theater. It couldn't be too popular. Under the protests of "careful audiences", the theater found its conscience and promised to screen "The Butcher on a Rainy Night" 24 hours a day. There will be screenings in the early hours of the night.

Let the passionate movie fans give it up!

Some young people who had nothing to do at night walked into the theater again on horseback.

Throughout the theater, the woman screamed continuously. I don’t know whether she was frightened or was penetrated.

This can be regarded as "The Butcher on a Rainy Night" leaving a puddle of water, a trace in the spring years of these young people.

If anyone does the math carefully, they will know how clever this trick of "Rainy Night Butcher" is.

Most of the audiences who come to watch the movie during the day are curious people over the age of 30. Most of them are stimulated by the news and come to see this "No. 1 horror movie in Hong Kong".

When night comes, those trendy young people gather in the theater to hang out and watch movies. Not only do they not waste time, but they also increase the number of screenings. After careful calculation, the number of screenings has not decreased, but has increased a lot. At the same time, there are more screenings.

Earned the box office of "Dao Ma Dan".

Sometimes, the decision to make sacrifices is actually in order to make the epiphyllum more brilliant. It is like spring mud protecting a flower. The next video hopes that the spring mud will make this epiphyllum more brilliant.

Those theater owners who were hesitant to change gears some time ago are dumbfounded! "The Butcher on a Rainy Night" is actually alive and has a comeback!

At this time, those who can’t understand can really go to Victoria Harbor to jump!

Second Young Master Jiang’s struggle before death was truly unique! If he knew they thought this way, Second Young Master Jiang would have yelled: I am committing suicide!

Wu Xiaozu’s shameless trick of backing off the stalls got off to a bad start! The citizens enjoyed watching the countdown and formed groups of small and large groups of people on the tap. More and more citizens were willing to walk into the "24" theater to watch the "historic" The first horror movie to be released."

Jiang Zhiqiang spoke so loudly for the first time in Antai.

It's so big that it eclipses his brother and makes his mother beam with joy. Especially his father, who has been telling him advice from time to time in recent days, which makes him feel flattered!

After seven days, "The Butcher on a Rainy Night" was released as scheduled, and reporters across Hong Kong reported it again.

The farce of Hong Kong's first boycott of downgrades has also come to an end.

Jiahe.

Zou Wen missed the saying that the younger generation is fearful. When the salted fish turned over in "The Butcher on a Rainy Night", he vaguely understood the power of this move.

The Hong Kong film industry has been promoting positive things for decades, and this is the first time negative hype has appeared! This kind of operation is breathtaking, and at the same time, I admire Jiang Ershao's method of secretly plotting against Chen Cang.

"I learned a lesson this time!" He Guanchang shook his head and sighed: "The Jiang family has a thousand-mile horse." He paused and said, "I don't know what Old Ghost Lei would think..."

"There is no right or wrong in money. Mr. Lei will definitely take the initiative to call and communicate with Mr. Jiang." Zou Wenhuai frowned and said, "Reduce the publicity and prepare to receive the film."

Hearing this, He Guanchang was startled.

Is this submission?

Glancing at Zou Wenhuai, who had a normal look on his face, he shook his head. Based on his understanding of the old friend, this was not his style. He didn't bow to Shaw even in the most difficult moment. This little bit of wind and rain would not make his old friend weak. .

"Do you think it's strange?" Zou Wenhuai seemed to know what his old friend was thinking, and said with a smile: "The Jiang family's methods made me understand one thing..."

"Stones from other hills, can learn!"

…………

"The Butcher on a Rainy Night" is released! Much attention is being paid to it!

10.12 million!?

As soon as the box office results came out, everyone was dumbfounded and shocked. Many people who stared at An Tai had their glasses shattered and were shocked.

Ten million videos released?!

Next, the problem is that this movie represents a small investment and a big return!

I was gearing up for a while! Hong Kong movies went astray again...

Even though they knew about the box office results every day, everyone was still shocked when the total box office results were compiled.

Ask yourself, if "Dao Ma Dan" didn't have the trouble, would "The Butcher on a Rainy Night" have a box office of over 10 million?

the answer is negative!

The box office of the movie in the first week was 3.35 million. No matter how good the reputation is, the audience for this type of movie is fixed. It is normal for the movie to drop 40 to 50% in the second week. From now on, it will have to slowly increase the box office.

Before the next move, it would have been a surprise if the final box office could be between five and six million. It is basically impossible. At the same time, how many theaters, publicity, and labor resources do you have? How much will the cost increase?

No wonder Jiang Zhiqiang was so excited that his face turned red when he saw the report, and he felt as unreal as in a dream.

It has only been released for three weeks and has a box office of 10.12 million, which is absolutely worth it!

"10 million? Earned 10 million?" Feicheng muttered to himself in shock.

Luo Dong and Su Liyao also swallowed dryly. For the first time, everyone felt that the release of "Dao Ma Dan" was not a bad thing!

Only Wu Xiaozu remained silent and drank tea quietly.

In the Hong Kong film industry, he is just a pawn and Tsui Hark is a ju.

Wu Xiaozu was very fortunate that Tsui Hark was a good opponent, because he couldn't see the pawns. The Lei family was also a good opponent, because they couldn't get a handsome man, let alone the pawns.

This time, by luck, the pawn crossed the river in a last-ditch effort and won the bet.

In addition to his fair share, he also received Jiang Zhiqiang's trust.

In the Hong Kong film industry, Wu Xiaozu made his own voice for the first time. Perhaps this voice was not so heroic, translucent and stunning.

But he really felt the enthusiasm of the Hong Kong film industry.

When the movie was released, the film studio announced that it would spend tens of millions to create a supernatural drama. It created a wave of popularity!

It's definitely an exaggeration, but seven to eight million should be no problem. Tsui Hark also needs to tap into his talent for costume dramas.

Seeing the news about Tsui Hark, Wu Xiaozu was stunned.

Wu Yusen's violent aesthetics and Tsui Hark's elegant feelings. These top directors have all found their own style concepts. What about you?

"Azu, why don't you hurry up and find another movie?" Jiang Zhiqiang stared at Wu Xiaozu with interest, "The market is so hot, do you understand the printing press?"

"Okay." Wu Xiaozu agreed without thinking.

Why should an 18th-tier director consider the style and philosophy of a great director? Make a good movie step by step first, and then talk about other things if you can make money.

Although "The Butcher on a Rainy Night" has come to an end, the film industry is still very lively.

During this period, Jiahe's "Flowers of the Sea" and Debao's "Occasionally" were defeated by "Dao Ma Dan" jointly screened by Golden Princess and Antai theaters, so they both chose to lower their film schedules and launch new plays in response.

Jiahe Cinema Line's next film is "The Magic Jade", which is jointly produced by three small companies and has a strong lineup. It is directed by Fatty Wang and stars the popular "singer" Andy Lau. It is very popular. Debao Cinema Line is promoting its own company's new drama. "Law Enforcement Pioneer". The three major cities have also suspended their clearance activities.

The fight between the three majors continued, and this time Jiahe and Debao faced off again. Princess Jin was a bystander.

The box office is summarized, but the box office split cannot be cashed immediately.

The fastest first tranche of CDs will take about a week to purchase, and it will take a month or two for all of them to arrive in your account.

From this point of view, Jiang Zhiqiang is really a happy person. For other companies, it would be normal for the film to be delayed for a year and a half. I don’t know how many production companies have been dragged to death because they were withheld from the box office share, and ended up bankrupt.

The total box office of the whole movie is 10.12 million. After excluding government taxes and related tax payments, there is about 9.7 million left. According to the original sharing terms set by Wu Xiaozu and Jiang Zhiqiang, theater chains and theaters will get 9.7 million of the box office. 70%, 6.79 million! The share is higher than the market share, but this is business.

Jiang Zhiqiang said it well, "We are all businessmen, and we will only take action if we can make a profit." If there is no profit, why should others help you?

As a distributor, Antai Pictures will enjoy 8% of the box office share, which is 776,000. Then there is 1024 Locomotive Studio’s 22%, 2.134 million.

However, before that, Antai Pictures has to deduct 250,000 yuan in preliminary promotion and publicity expenses, and 50,000 yuan in development and copying film expenses.

We also need to deduct subsequent donations and expenses of 150,000 (each party pays half) and post-publicity expenses of 150,000, adding up to 600,000. In the end, approximately 1.534 million was left in Wu Xiaozu's hands.

Of course, this is the simplest algorithm, and the actual division of accounts needs to be determined by professional accountants from Antai Film Company. Under normal circumstances, the amount obtained is lower than predicted.

This is the same as giving bonuses. What you get is always less than expected!
