Chapter 579 29.87 million

The Rust Mansion in Beverly Hills.

In the study, the hour hand walked slowly and firmly, and finally stopped at the number 1.

Before ten minutes had passed, Lehman, who was sitting in front of the computer, received an email from Liam on time.

This is a data summarized by theaters. After roughly scanning the distributed cities, screening periods, and average attendance data, it is pulled to the bottom real-time box office statistics, and Lehman feels relaxed.

29.87 million, with an average attendance rate of 82%, and an average box office of more than 11,000 yuan per game.

Lehman went to bed with satisfaction. Although he had directed many movies, he still felt nervous after the movie was released, but now he can have a good dream.

But this night, many people are destined to be unable to sleep.

Liam was so happy that he didn't sleep and discussed the next topic with Warner's publicity department all night;

Some industry insiders are not sleeping. They need to know the first-day achievements of "The Monster in the Lake" as a reference goal;

Many morning newspaper media people didn't sleep either. After the results were released, they would hurry up and hurry up to make the news of the next day.

But the first-day box office of 29.87 million still surprised many people.

Although 29.87 million did not break any box office record, it also occupies a place in the long film history, ranking among the top five in the first-day box office data.

"Star Wars 3", "Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's Stone", "Spider-Man 2", the fourth place is "The Monster in the Lake", and the fifth place is "Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets".

Looking at the above movies, you will soon find that these are works that book fans and movie fans are prone to gather to watch. Although the total box office of "The Lord of the Rings 3" is very high, the box office on the first day is not as good as the Harry Potter and Star Wars series. This kind of youth market is like a "traffic star", which starts quickly and falls quickly.

As for why "The Monster in the Lake" has such a high first-day box office, perhaps it is because of the blessing of the right time, place, and people.

The time is naturally good for the schedule. In November, except for the movie "The Legend of Chicken" is still quite strong, the box office of all the movies is not high, while "The Legend of Chicken" is an animated film, and the audience overlaps are not high; "The Legend of Chicken" in the live-action movie is more profound, and the main group still does not overlap;

Is the location a good place? It is Warner's strong publicity and promotion and the optimistic view of theater businessmen. As early as in the internal preview, I unanimously agreed that the film's results will not be low, so I arranged more than 2,800 theaters;

Renhe is the passerby foundation laid by so many works of Lehman and the market capacity of the disaster film itself. Take "The Great White Jaws" with a budget of 9 million in 1975, which finally won more than 470 million US dollars. If inflation is calculated, it is definitely the first few film history. "The Day Afternoon" which dominated the summer season in 2004 also had a box office of 24.3 million on the first day, and the competitors would be even stronger at that time.

Of course, Warner was also surprised.

They expected that "The Monster in the Lake" had good results, but they never thought it would be so good.

But movies are such an unexpected industry. If you watch them accurately at all times, there will be no major losses.

My colleagues in the film industry were somewhat envious when they looked at the data they collected.

Fame and fortune can be rewarded with all of them with just one big hit work.

Mades Mikolson became famous, a lawyer who is a Danish actor. I don’t know if his image will still be accepted by Hannie’s TV series. However, he is indeed good or evil, and has a strong plasticity. Paul Bettany, who was originally just a last-rate actor, also jumped up and his salary doubled.

As for Matthew McConaughey, who had originally fallen into a trough, he naturally returned to the peak of his career.

However, his mood was the most complicated. Because he had lost it, he seemed to cherish it after getting it. The specific manifestation was the film contract flying like snowflakes. After the initial screening of the agent, he was very cautious and did not dare to agree easily.

On the second day after the movie was released, Lehman received a call from Gyro, saying that he was invited to dinner.

But when he walked into the private room, the top's attitude was very enthusiastic, which made Lehman feel strange.

This enthusiasm is too much.

"Is there something wrong with the project? Do you need to increase the budget?" Lehman said actively.

If so, the source of enthusiasm will be very clear.

After all, not every director is like Cameron, who is not willing to give in if he doesn't have enough budget for filming, and is going to force investors to jump into the sea.

Is it always smooth to shoot? As long as it is not too much, Lehman is willing to add more money.

But I didn't expect that the gyro was not for "Pan Shen's Maze". The movie was still choosing the outdoor scene. The progress was very slow. It was also because the gyro had put a lot of effort into it. I didn't want to be too casual and kept striving for excellence.

Before the food came up, Gyro first congratulated: "Lyman, congratulations to "The Monster in the Lake" for its box office success."

Lehman waved his hand, "It's only the next day that hasn't been decided yet."

“The attendance rate and first-day results are excellent, and it will never be bad.”

"Okay, do you have anything to say? It's not like your style." Lehman teased.

Gyro is a person with a relatively straightforward personality, otherwise he would not have stopped working directly after he had some disagreement with Xinyi Film because of the investment in "Hellboy".

After asking this, Gyro did not continue to say any polite words.

He directly stated that he wanted to introduce a director to the studio, and it was a matter of being affiliated with the studio.

OK, this is something that requires others, no wonder he is so enthusiastic.

You know, this guy has never been so enthusiastic about looking for investment in "The Maze of Pan" for Lehman.

When Leman heard this, he did not agree immediately. Instead, he asked Gyro who was going to Firefly Film.

Gyro replied, saying that he was a friend of his place, Alfonso Caron. After attending the premiere of "The Monster in the Lake" that day, I saw that he had such an idea, so I asked him.

As for whether to ask or not, of course it is a polite word. Gyro can't just say that they are afraid that fireflies will not give any good conditions. It would be better to let their friends continue to work hard with Warner.

But Leman knew that Alfonso had excellent directorial skills. He wanted to join Fireflies and was welcomed too late, so he would definitely not refuse.

After all, Alfonso, the three Mexican masterpiece, is the most comprehensive style and will also compromise on the market. He is a director like Wan Ziren.

You should know that this guy made "Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban" is the second-ranked sequel in the entire series - the first one, and it has a passion score. After all, it is the finale and it is the best-known film of media film reviews and original fans. Of course, because it is too restored to the novel, the tone and theme are dark, and it is not as bright as the past works, which leads to the lowest box office of the work.

But this is not a problem for Lehman. What Fireflies lack now is talent.

Therefore, Leman nodded decisively and asked the gyro to contact us as soon as possible.
Chapter completed!
