After the lively premiere, it’s time to see the real results.
"The Gift of Room 7" only opened three shows on its first day, but the box office was not low at all.
The opening number of 3,500 screens is a new high for art films in the history of Chinese films.
The results certainly didn't disappoint.
"The Gift from Room No. 7" premiered on Friday with a box office of 43 million yuan, more than three times higher than Love Letter's 10.03 million yuan!
Waiting until the next day, Saturday, the result of seven consecutive shows was a box office of 85 million yuan.
With word-of-mouth and tears flying at the same time, "The Gift of Room No. 7" came to Sunday. Not only did the attendance and box office not decline, but it also experienced a slight increase, reaching 87 million yuan!
After three days of its first weekend, the box office of "Gift from Room No. 7" was 205 million yuan, once again breaking the record of "Love Letter" for a literary film in its first weekend of 130.3 million yuan.
Overseas box office is even stronger.
The box office of other countries and regions around the world during the first weekend was aggregated, and it was as much as 770 million yuan!
Although it is much worse than Hollywood blockbusters, if you compare it with Hollywood literary films, with a global box office of almost 150 million US dollars in the first weekend, it must be a super classic movie!
At least in the history of Chinese films, this has never happened before.
People even speculate based on this result that "The Gift of Room No. 7" is likely to surpass "Death Trap", the masterpiece of Wang Mu and Chen Hao three years ago, and become the number one box office movie in China.
If it really reaches that stage, "The Gift of Room No. 7" and all its related personnel will be recorded in the history of Chinese movies!
As a result, people in the industry have paid more and more attention to the adaptation of "The Story of Xiaoba".
No matter when the project is approved, director Zhu Mei must be impressed first so that she can be reminded of herself when casting the film in the future.
With this idea in mind, Zhu Mei's side was really crowded with people all day long.
If it weren't for the fact that there was still a lot of publicity to be done, she would have wanted to hide in the mountains.
At this time, the eldest princess came to join in the fun again.
She asked Teacher Chu Liuxiang if she needed Shanhai.com to operate and promote "Xiaoba's Story".
Although "Qiantang Evening News" is backed by the Zheyue Newspaper Group, the Zheyue Newspaper Group is ultimately a local organization and cannot cover the entire country.
If you want to distribute "Qiantang Evening News" nationwide, that would be too arrogant and offending, and they won't do that.
However, Zheyue Newspaper Group also has its share of thieves.
Wasn't "A Bowl of Yangchun Noodles" previously published in the electronic version of "Qiantang Evening News"
Although the electronic version of "Qiantang Evening News" also charges money, it is not as intuitive, able to accommodate advertisements, and easy to read as the paper version.
Therefore, when Zhejiang Yue Newspaper Group started serializing "Gift from Room No. 7", it directly removed the section "Gift from Room No. 7" from the electronic version.
At that time, I don’t know how many people scolded them for being shameless and asking for nothing just for money!
But what this brought to the "Qiantang Evening News" was a full 5 million annual subscriptions. With such a subscription base, plus the retail newspapers, it is unknown how much advertising fees it brought to the "Qiantang Evening News".
You can see from the bonus of more than 50 million yuan received by "Qiantang Evening News" at the end of the year, how much money they made.
The same is true now. Their sales have reached Jiangdong, Wanhui, and southern Fujian. "Qiantang Evening News" can be seen in four provinces in total, and its influence has been greatly improved.
But the eldest princess still felt that it was not enough.
"The Story of Xiaoba" will definitely be made into a movie. If there is no good publicity and preparation to make many people become fans of this story, then there will definitely be obstacles for future movies.
She was a little disdainful of the "Qiantang Evening News"'s pettiness.
Shen Huan thought about it and declined the eldest princess's kindness.
Compared to the stunning "The Gift of Room No. 7", "The Story of Xiaoba" is relatively warm and suitable for a slow pace. It is not the kind that will make people like it more with intense promotion.
Shen Huan was not in a hurry.
If a story really wants to be deeply rooted in people's hearts, time is very important.
After the serialization is completed and the single book begins to be released, it will be too late to start planning and production slowly.
Calculating the time, production will not start until at least the second half of next year. If it can be released around New Year's Day, it is not too late.
Shen Huan is now thinking about how to create Jian Peng.
The selection of "Lightning Boy" has now reached the final knockout round of the top 20.
Jian Peng was undoubtedly eliminated.
He was still very sad when he was eliminated. He cried and said, "I know I'm not suitable for singing, but I like singing very much."
However, he was destined to be eliminated from the beginning. Which candidate player would pay attention to someone who was destined not to be in a team with him
Therefore, he who has never had many friends, when he said these words, he was only cried and shouted a few words by the audience below. The response of the team members on the stage was very cold, they just came over to hug him one by one, hypocritically. Just a few words of encouragement.
Most people could see such perfunctory behavior, but no one said anything.
A destined loser will not attract much attention, not even mention of liking him.
In the popularity rankings of "Lightning Boy", Jian Peng has always been the lowest since the knockout rounds began.
Therefore, this society is somewhat realistic and normal.
People who are destined to be losers really have no sympathy or pity in the entertainment industry, a place where they fight all day long and do whatever they can.
Jian Peng is handsome and sculptural, which is why he has won the love of some fans.
But even the most die-hard fans didn't have any extravagant expectations for him to advance to the final 12, so they didn't make a fuss about this result.
And for newcomers who don’t have any works and become popular with just one show, their fans are destined to slowly disappear.
After Jian Peng left the stage, no agency approached him to sign a contract.
Shen Huan, who had been paying attention to him, found out that after Jian Peng actually left the competition, he went back to work at the previous construction site.
This actually made Shen Huan glance at him.
If Jian Peng started to drift away because of this "Lightning Boy", and he has been wanting to enter the entertainment industry again and become a star since he was eliminated from the competition, then it would make Shen Huan a little disappointed.
There is no shortage of handsome guys and beauties in the entertainment industry. Jian Peng rushed in hastily before his own characteristics were discovered. This is obviously without self-awareness.
But now that he is back to work on the construction site, it seems that he is very practical. At least he knows what he needs and what is most important in life.
Such people are suitable for training!
