Perfect Superstar

In the light and shadow theater, Li Le was observing and thinking, while Lu Chen was also waiting in the office of Chenfei Media Headquarters of the New Times Art Center in Beijing, a thousand kilometers away.

Waiting for the first-day box office results of "A Chinese Ghost Story".

To be honest, although he has sufficient confidence in his film work, when "A Chinese Ghost Story" was actually released, Lu Chen still felt the long-lost anxiety and a little bit of uneasiness.

Facing a strong opponent, he has done his best in terms of film promotion. The quality of the film itself is not a problem after the test of the Xiangjiang market, but this does not mean that "A Chinese Ghost Story" will definitely win a high box office.

There is a lot of uncertainty in the market, and audiences in different places have different tastes, and there are many factors that affect them to go to the theater and spend tens of dollars to watch movies.

Some films have been promoted vigorously, with extremely high box office predictions, and the cast and special effects of the investment are in place, but after the release, the audience does not recognize it, and the result ends in a dismal end.

There are also some movies that were not favored in advance, and the publicity was not strong enough, but they won countless audiences by word of mouth!

As a film of light and shadow magic, if you want to spend money from the audience's pockets, both strength and luck are indispensable.

The cost of "A Chinese Ghost Story" has already been recovered, and it has made good profits through the sales of peripheral products, but for any filmmaker, the domestic market is the ultimate test of the work.

The movie box office of Xiangjiang is limited, but the potential of the mainland is infinite!

Lu Chen doesn't care how much money "A Chinese Ghost Story" can bring him in the end, but he also hopes that his first film will be a success in China.

That's why he's nervous.

Tap!

The door of the room was knocked lightly, and Lu Chen, who was sitting in front of the computer and browsing the web, didn't lift his head: "Please come in."

The door opened, and a pretty lady walked in with a cup of hot coffee.

It wasn't until the coffee cup was placed on the table that Lu Chen woke up: "Fei'er? Why haven't you rested yet?"

It was not the assistant who brought him coffee, but Chen Fei'er!

Chen Fei'er smiled softly and said, "I'll wait for the result with you."

Lu Chen couldn't help feeling a little sweet in his heart,

He didn't pick up the cup to drink coffee, but stretched out his arms to hug Chen Fei'er, letting her sit on his lap.

Chen Fei'er didn't resist, and leaned into his arms naturally.

Lu Chen rested his chin on her shoulder and inhaled the familiar scent of his girlfriend. The nervousness in his heart disappeared without a trace, and he relaxed.

Chen Feier asked curiously: "Are you nervous?"

When she came in just now, she noticed Lu Chen's expression and could see his mood.

Lu Chen laughed at himself, and said frankly, "Yeah, I don't know why, but I'm suddenly afraid of failure."

Chen Fei'er couldn't help reaching out to touch his face, and said distressedly: "It doesn't matter if we fail, we can afford to lose."

The Lu Chen in her impression is optimistic, strong, and calm, and rarely shows weakness and fear like this moment, but it is precisely this Lu Chen that makes her feel extremely real, flesh and blood.

Lu Chen smiled and said: "I know, maybe I care too much, after all, this is the first operation project of our company, I don't want to let everyone down..."

"But now, I don't worry anymore, I believe in myself!"

Chen Fei'er felt that the confident and invincible Lu Chen was back. She didn't say much, but took the initiative to send a kiss, expressing her support for Lu Chen with actions.

Good times always pass quickly, the coffee on the table turns from hot to cold, and the time passes midnight quietly.

At 1:27, the first-day box office results of "A Chinese Ghost Story" are released!

Thanks to the great Internet and the tremendous development of the IT industry, things that were impossible to achieve before have become very common now. The data of various theaters across the country are aggregated to the theaters, and then passed on to Chenfei Media. Less than two hours.

38.75 million!

"A Chinese Ghost Story" grossed nearly 40 million on its first day!

Immediately there was a burst of cheers from the office area outside. Those employees who stayed up late with Lu Chen all saw the box office results at the first time, and they were all excited.

Although this box office is much lower than the 120 million on the first day of "Battle of Vulcan", it must be known that the average film schedule of "A Chinese Ghost Story" is less than 20%. As a low-investment China-Hong Kong co-production, it is already very dazzling!

With such an excellent first-day box office, as long as there is no sharp drop in the next few days, the film schedule of "A Chinese Ghost Story" will inevitably increase. After all, the main rival has been released for two weeks.

Unlike the cheering employees, Lu Chen only felt a little bit of joy about the box office results, not too much excitement, because he knew very well that behind the nearly 40 million box office was the support of himself and Chen Feier's countless fans.

According to what he knew, the fan support groups in major cities of the two of them organized private movie viewing activities, and many fans booked movie tickets in advance.

It is normal for the box office to be high, if it is low, there will be a big problem!

So he continued to wait.

Wait for the sales data of peripheral products to come out.

Peripheral products are different from movie tickets. Although they are all computer-scanned records now, they involve different situations in each theater, and the time for statistics and summary is not so fast.

The sales performance of peripheral products is undoubtedly more important to Lu Chen now, because it can more truly reflect the reputation of "A Chinese Ghost Story" among the audience.

Many fans are willing to spend 30 to 50 yuan to go to the theater to support their idols, but facing hundreds of peripheral products, except for a relatively small number of real iron fans, it is not so easy to pay for it.

Unless they really like the movie, the story and the characters in the movie, they will be willing to spend money as a souvenir.

Unlike the United States, the market for domestic film peripheral products is not too large, especially for domestic films, almost all of which have given up on this market, so that Wang Xiaoxu thinks that "A Chinese Ghost Story" is fraudulent in its peripheral sales.

Whether you can prove your innocence, the peripheral sales on the first day are undoubtedly crucial!

Lu Xi also came, she and Chen Fei'er accompanied Lu Chen to wait for the result.

It wasn't until 2:57 that the peripheral sales data of the theater chain finally came over.

25.98 million!

There were once again warm cheers and loud applause in the office area of ​​Chenfei Media.

Steady!

The big rock in Lu Chen's heart finally landed firmly, and he couldn't help but let out a long breath.

This result is better than expected!
