The box office sales of "The Tuner" and "Party A and Party B" exceeded Wu Mengcheng's expectations.
He has seen both movies, and the quality is very good. He previously predicted that the box office of the two movies would be around 40 million each, which is pretty good, but not great. After all, the two movies were released at the same time.
of.
According to Shenkong, the simultaneous release of the two movies can revitalize the entire Lunar New Year period, stimulate people's interest in watching movies, and increase the possibility of them entering the cinema.
But in Wu Mengcheng's view, maybe Deep Space Company's strategy can work and expand the market, but if divided into two movies, each will still be less.
For example, originally there were 5,000 people going to the cinema to watch a movie during this period, but now because of the excitement of the Lunar New Year period, the number has increased to 7,000, a 40% increase. But even so, divided between two movies,
There are only three thousand and five thousand left, which is less than five thousand.
However, what Wu Mengcheng did not expect was that Deep Space actually had a back-up plan. It created a chat software called Dongdong, which greatly stimulated the box office and more than doubled the number of moviegoers.
"After this time, the Lunar New Year period is finally complete." Wu Mengcheng said with a smile.
The assistant also laughed and said: "Indeed, even my mother-in-law now knows that there is a Lunar New Year stall. However, most people still associate the Lunar New Year stall with deep space. It is estimated that when talking about the Lunar New Year stall in the future, everyone will
Thinking of Deep Space Corporation."
Wu Mengcheng waved his hands and said, "We don't care about this. As long as our company can develop, as long as the Chinese film market can develop, it doesn't matter which company or person gets the credit for the Lunar New Year movie. Besides, this time
The Lunar New Year stall is indeed the credit of Deep Space Company. Without them, the Lunar New Year stall wouldn’t be possible, at least it wouldn’t be so lively.”
"But it's a pity for Mr. Zhang of Forbidden City Pictures. They were the ones who originally proposed this Lunar New Year slot, but now they are left with nothing. I guess Mr. Zhang must be in a bad mood right now."
Wu Mengcheng glanced at the assistant and said, "Let's not discuss other people's affairs. The Lunar New Year issue was not proposed by them. Originally, there was such a concept in Xiangjiang and they just wanted to imitate it."
After being nodded by the leader, the assistant did not dare to continue, so he changed the topic and said, "But the Dongdong of Deep Space is very useful. Deep Space gave me several accounts. Now I can chat with my friends.
Use dong dong.”
"Yeah, I'm using it too. What's your account number? Let's add a friend later. If I have any work in the future, I don't need to call or send you an email. I can just click on you directly on Dongdong. Communication is faster."
"Uh..." The corner of the assistant's mouth twitched, and he felt like he had shot himself in the foot.
…
Wu Mengcheng's assistant was right, Zhang Heping was indeed very depressed during this period.
This kind of depressed mood actually started after Yanjing Film Studio left them to cooperate with Deep Space, but it reached a peak in the past two days.
The movie "Covering the Sky with One Hand" produced by their company has only had a box office of more than 3 million in more than a week, and they can only rely on the reputation of their Forbidden City Pictures in Yanjing to have a box office of more than 3 million. Otherwise, the movie theater
I don't want to show their movies.
If you want to say whether the movie is bad, it is not. Although it is not as good as Deep Space Company's "The Tuner" and "Party A and Party B", the box office definitely shouldn't be so bad.
The reason for the current situation is entirely because the marketing effect of Deep Space was too sensational, causing everyone to focus on the two movies of Deep Space, and no one paid attention to them at all.
"Covering the Sky with One Hand".
Moreover, Deep Space obviously did this on purpose. It deliberately set the schedule with them, so that they would not be able to escape even for a day. They had no choice but to rush forward, and the result was obvious. They were badly beaten and bleeding.
If you are short, you will make a lot of money.
Zhang Heping looked at the hourglass on the table. The sand had run out. He turned the hourglass upside down and started it again.
The hourglass can start over, but time can never be turned back. If you make a mistake, you made a mistake, and you can't make up for it now.
Zhang Heping knew what he was about to face. Their company was established to stimulate the domestic box office market. But now, Deep Space has done this, but he and his Forbidden City Pictures have failed miserably. No matter from which angle you look at it,
There is no need for the Forbidden City to exist anymore.
…
When the hourglass was about halfway down, the phone on the desk suddenly rang.
Zhang Heping frowned. A phone call at this time would definitely not be a good thing. He sighed slightly and picked up the phone: "Hello."
"Mr. Zhang, my Xiao Yu from Shen Kong, do you still remember me?"
Zhang Heping narrowed his eyes and suppressed his anger and said, "Mr. Yu, are you calling now to show off your record to your defeated generals? If that's the case, I don't think it's necessary."
After saying that, Zhang Heping was about to hang up the phone, but the person on the other side smiled and said: "Mr. Zhang, don't get me wrong, it's just a matter of one or two movies, and it's not enough for me to show off. I'm calling you this time.
I want to talk to you about cooperation."
"Cooperation?" Zhang Heping put the phone to his ear again: "Mr. Yu, are you serious?"
"Of course, we were rivals before, but that does not prevent us from becoming partners in the future. There are three gangs of heroes. No matter what we do, win-win cooperation is the main theme. We at Deep Space have never been willing to establish rivals, and are more willing to make friends.
, and Mr. Zhang is the friend we really want to make.”
Zhang Heping didn't have a good impression of Deep Space, but now he had no choice at all about the olive branch that Deep Space offered him. He understood that if he rejected Deep Space, his path would be cut off from now on.
"Mr. Yu, how do you want to cooperate?"
"Our company has a new movie to be shot recently. I wonder if Mr. Zhang is interested in participating. If Mr. Zhang is interested, you may wish to come to Jinling to participate in this year's Deep Space Annual Conference. We can talk about it in detail then."
Zhang Heping didn't hesitate much and nodded: "Of course."
"Okay, I'll send you a formal invitation letter later."
"Okay, I will definitely go to the appointment."
"Mr. Zhang, I have one last digression to tell you. In fact, I think the reason why you failed this time is not because of your own problems, but because you found the wrong director. Okay, that's it, Mr. Zhang, what's the point here?
I have something to do, let’s talk about it later.”
"okay."
After hanging up the phone, Zhang Heping looked at the hourglass again, thoughtfully.
The "digression" that Yu Liang said at the end seemed to Zhang Heping to be the theme he wanted to express on the phone.
It turns out that Shen Kong had a problem with Feng Xiaogang.
Zhang Heping suddenly realized, no wonder, no wonder Feng Xiaogang had been saying bad things about Deep Space before. It turned out that the two sides had already had a rift. Now it seems that in this matter, he and Forbidden City Pictures have become a fish in the fire.
.
Yuliang's meaning was also very obvious, which was to tell him to put aside Feng Xiaogang as soon as possible before he could plunge into the embrace of deep space.
Such a choice is not difficult for Zhang Heping. Now that he knows that the root cause of this incident is Feng Xiaogang, even if Deep Space does not ask, he will not cooperate with Feng Xiaogang anymore. After all, to a certain extent, it is Feng Xiaogang.
