Chapter 120 Regret "Brother Baoqiang, everything is easy. There is no problem with investment and borrowing a director. I have agreed to all of this. You can come to the company to sign the contract anytime you have time."Di Lieba heard all the conversation between Yang Hao and Brother Baoqiang. Yang Hao's record in investing in movies is nothing short of spectacular, with all of them having been huge hits so far. Just now, when she heard that Yang Hao was going to invest in another movie, Di Lieba's eyes rolled and some ideas came to her mind. After the call ended, Reba came over and hugged Yang Hao's arm, and the little bear rubbed against Yang Hao's arm. Seeing Reba like this, Yang Hao had to admit that Reba was getting better and better. "Good brother, is there a role suitable for me in the movie you invested in just now?" The uneven touch on his arm, coupled with the coquettish voice of Dilraba, made Yang Hao feel like his bones were about to break. Well! This girl has been so naughty for a long time, just for this movie role? Although "Journey to the West: Conquering the Demons 2" is a profitable movie, its reputation is indeed very bad. Yang Hao invested in this movie just to accumulate some cash back funds and make friends with Brother Baoqiang. The heroine of this movie was originally played by Liu Yan. Dilraba Dilmurat could also play this role, but the movie has a very bad reputation and Yang Hao really didn't want Dilraba Dilmurat to play the role. Di Lieba’s performance in “The Richest Tomato” has been criticized by many netizens. If she were to act in “Journey to India” again, Yang Hao couldn’t imagine how badly Di Lieba would be criticized. In her previous life, Di Lieba rarely acted in movies and had always been in the TV drama circle. Even so, she was still nicknamed the Golden Eagle Water Queen.
Now that Reba has been brought into the film industry, Yang Hao suddenly feels that this is a bit of a hassle. We still have to let Reba act in TV dramas. With Reba's acting skills, it's too difficult for him to make a name for himself in movies. Without his own resources, he will be immediately reduced to his original form. "It's hot, dear! This movie is really not suitable for you to act in," Yang Hao said lovingly while hugging the other person. Yang Hao said this absolutely sincerely, just for the sake of heat. "Hmph!" Upon hearing Yang Hao's rejection, Reba's face suddenly fell. She snorted coldly and turned her head away. However, her hands were still tightly holding Yang Hao and she did not let go. Women who know how to act coquettishly have the best life. At least Yang Hao is quite fond of this. Seeing Reba pretending to be angry like a child, Yang Hao's fatherly love instantly overflowed. "Mmm! Mmm!". Explanation is concealment, action is worse than intention. What could explain things more clearly than actual actions? - In the following days, the box office of "The Richest Tomato" continued to soar. The fourth day of the Lunar New Year: million. The fifth day of the Lunar New Year: million. By the sixth day of the Lunar New Year, only the last 10 million yuan of cash back funds were left in Yang Hao's system. Without the support of system funds, the box office fell back to million. Not only was there no support from system funds on the seventh day, but it was also the last day of the Spring Festival holiday. In order to be better able to go to work the next day, most people chose to rest at home, and the overall box office market declined. On this day, the box office of "The Richest Tomato" fell below 1 million, to only million. During the seven-day Spring Festival holiday, the box office of "The Richest Tomato" reached a staggering million yuan. The achievement of breaking 9 million in seven days really shocked all the practitioners in the industry. Last year's box office champion "Charlotte's Troubles" got a key extension, and finally grossed only 13 billion yuan.
This year, in just seven days of the Spring Festival, the box office of "The Richest Tomato" reached 9 million. Breaking the box office record of "Charlotte's Troubles" is a foregone conclusion, but I don't know whether it can break the 20 billion mark. The entertainment industry was collectively excited about the box office performance of "The Richest Tomato". How could the entertainment media miss such a feast of traffic? As soon as the box office results were released, articles were published one after another. "The box office of "The Richest Tomato" exceeded 9 million in seven days, indicating that the film and television industry is completely prosperous" "The box office of "The Richest Tomato" may exceed 20 billion yuan" "Yang Hao may become the double champion and suppress all enemies in the world" …… Many analysts in the entertainment industry are optimistic and boldly predict that the box office will exceed 20 billion. But Yang Hao himself knew that out of the 9 million box office, million was backed by his own system. Without the subsequent investment of system cashback funds, and coupled with the fact that the working day was approaching, the movie box office would definitely be cut in half. If the box office wants to break through 2 billion, 3 billion, or even 5 billion, it must wait until China Film Group expands its theater chains. Since 2014, China Film Group has started its plan to expand its cinema network and has begun to build cinemas in fourth- and fifth-tier cities. This is also why from 2012 to 2014, the box office champion of each year was just over 10 billion. In 2015, "Monster Hunt" broke the box office record to 24 billion. In 2016, "The Mermaid" broke the box office record to 33 billion. In 2017, "Wolf Warrior 2" broke the box office record to 56 billion. …… In recent years, movie box office records have been rising almost every year. Is it really because of how well "Monster Hunt", "The Mermaid" and "Wolf Warrior 2" were filmed? In fact, it is not like that. It is because the overall environment has changed and cinemas have moved to small cities and counties. For a hit movie, 30% to 40% of the box office revenue comes from third-, fourth- and fifth-tier cities. The subsequent box office of "The Richest Tomato" was indeed as Yang Hao had expected. Without the injection of system funds and because it was a weekday, the daily box office was only 20 to million. Looking at this trend, there is definitely no hope of breaking through billion. "Oh!" Yang Hao sighed after looking at the box office trend chart. At this point in time, the maximum box office potential of a movie is only about to billion, and it is impossible to break the 2 billion mark. Although I have my own system, in reality, there are only so many cinemas and screens, and even the best cook cannot cook without the rice. The movie was such a huge success that Yang Hao's phone was almost blown up. Before "The Richest Tomato" was released, negative news about him was flying everywhere, and only about ten people called to comfort Yang Hao. But after the release of "The Richest Tomato", the box office was a huge hit, and more and more people called. Many of Yang Hao's classmates at the Beijing Film Academy almost forgot who they were, and they all sent their blessings to Yang Hao through various means such as calling, texting, chatting on WeChat, etc. There are few consolations that come in the form of timely assistance, but there are many blessings that add icing on the cake. At this moment, there was a person who had a "close" relationship with Yang Hao. She looked very conflicted. She was hesitating whether to call Yang Hao to congratulate him.
She really regretted why she broke up in the first place. Before they broke up, Yang Hao was clearly a lazy person who was afraid of the hard work and tiredness of running around in groups. How come you rise so quickly after breaking up? Could it be that I have the physique of a koi fish? Will I be able to turn things around after breaking up with myself? (End of this chapter)
