The Fantasy Entertainment Empire

Chapter 225 The final box office

Recently, Dimension Entertainment has received many cooperation applications from actors like Chen Weiting or their teams.

These actors are basically well-known and professionally qualified. There are even some of them that Fan Zhe has heard of or even liked.

But returning to the perspective of the producer, Fan Zhe will still be quite cautious in his own works.

Staying true to your original intention is also very important.

He still believes that he creates his own works, and he tries not to be influenced by other factors. Try to focus on the quality of the work, unless you encounter some force majeure.

From the recruitment of actors to the construction of the entire crew. It's not the most important thing right now. According to Fan Zhe's plan, he still has plenty of time to think about these. For now, it is still the first thing to do is to make the preliminary concept design of the martial arts master more complete.

While Fan Zhe was working hard to promote the project of "Martial Arts Master", the screening of Hell Apartment was gradually coming to an end.

After the fourth week, the film's box office also gradually fell.

In the fifth week, the box office of "Hell Apartment" fell to more than 53 million; in the sixth week, it was cut in half again, leaving only more than 27 million.

The box office potential of "Hell Apartment" has basically been tapped. Although it will continue to be screened for a period of time later, the scale of filming will inevitably drop significantly.

However, the situation in "The God of Wealth" in the same period was much worse.

Their box office in the past half month is only a little over 10 million in total, and the situation of driving high and low is very obvious. In this case, although Rainbow Entertainment is still struggling, it basically cannot change the facts. This movie will no longer have a chance to be released in large numbers, and it will only be scheduled in very few theaters, which can be ignored.

At present, the total box office of the two films is about the same. "Happy Events for the God of Wealth" looks like more than 360 million yuan. Although "Hell Apartment" was completely crushed by Caishen Xishi at the beginning, it counterattacked later, and the final box office was more than 10 million more, surpassing "Fortuna Xishi".

The box office gap of about 10 million is not particularly huge for movies, and the two should be regarded as the same level.

However, things don't work that way.

It seems that the box office of the two films is about the same, but the investment in "The God of Wealth" exceeds 100 million. In addition, according to Ye Jiayi's knowledge, Shen Deng and his team not only received a high salary, but also enjoyed the later share of the box office profits.

The investor, Tianhong Entertainment, invested a huge amount of money, and only managed to recoup the money it earned from the box office. But if the share paid to Shen Deng's team is deducted, the remaining money is not enough to make up for the investment of the entire movie.

Of course, if you count it, "The God of Wealth" shouldn't lose money.

After all, there are still copyright operations for this movie in the later stage, such as online movie on-demand sharing or buyout.

All in all, if the timeline is extended, in the next few months or even years, they will always earn back the remaining costs slowly, and there may be a certain surplus.

However, no matter how you look at it, it cannot be regarded as a successful investment. For David especially, it was an obvious failure.

In fact, when he first entered the film and television industry, the goal he set for his first film was very realistic: just to pay back the cost.

"The God of Wealth" has achieved this goal in general.

However, everything in the world must be compared.

He always compares with Fan Zhe's works involuntarily. Especially "Hell Apartment", a movie released at the same time.

Although the box office of the two is similar, there are no famous actors in Hell Apartment, and the entire investment cost is only 20 million. The current box office income. nearly 20 times...

How to compare? No matter how you compare, you will lose!

To be honest, David still felt a sense of frustration in his heart.

He has achieved countless brilliant achievements in the traditional investment industry. Many of his classic operations are regarded as the standard in the industry. He is a descendant of a famous family and the proud son of heaven. There have been countless challenges in his life, but in the end they were resolved one by one by her...

He is strong.

However, under his leadership, after Tianhong Investment shifted part of its energy to the entertainment industry, the two consecutive investments failed, and both of them were defeated by the same person.

Just like his love.

He once investigated Fan Zhe, from his family background, to his growth process, to his work manager...

After reading Fan Zhe's resume, David felt that he was just an ordinary person, without any strong family background, without any extraordinary knowledge, at best he had relatively good art skills.

But so what? Is it comparable to the power of capital?

But why? Why do I keep failing on such a person?

David didn't understand.

However, such frustration was only fleeting.

He has encountered countless difficult challenges and experienced many failures, many of which are more serious than this time.

So what? In the end he won.

He always has a strong confidence in himself: he believes that no matter what, as long as he wants to do it, he will be the one who wins in the end.

This time is no exception.

Compared with David, Xu Ziting of Lotus Leaf Films is not so calm and unrestrained.

Before that, "Hell's Apartment" and "The God of Fortune" were two movies in front of her at the same time. She was extremely blind and inclined to "The God of Wealth" and put her treasure on the latter. For example, the arrangement of promotional resources, such as the resource arrangement of the publisher, such as the communication with theaters... She is partial to "The God of Wealth".

However, in the end, the performance of the market slapped her hard in the face.

This matter itself will not have too much impact on her. But the vision is questioned to a certain extent, the muttering behind the back of the colleagues, the gearing up of the competitors... are all unavoidable.

But this is second.

Although she is the general manager of the company, after all, she still has a boss on her head, and she is also responsible for her own performance.

Dimension Entertainment has once again demonstrated their strong strength. Xu Ziting also realized that this was a serious golden thigh.

And she herself, once loosened it once extremely foolishly, and even spat on her thigh, saliva... how stupid it is!

She didn't know if there was a chance to remedy it, but no matter if there was, she could only try to remedy it.

Xu Ziting dialed Ye Jiayi's phone nervously. After taking two deep breaths, when the call was connected, she put on the most enthusiastic smile and said, "Mr. Ye, do you have time? I want to make an appointment with you." Let's have a meal together to celebrate the success of the film."

There was silence for a while, and a strange female voice came: "Hello, I am Mr. Ye's assistant. If you want to meet with Mr. Ye, you need to make an appointment. The current approximate schedule... Well, wait and see in half a month What about afterward?"
