Qin Long browsed through the forums and other places. There were many posts about the feelings of watching the movie, and most of them said that the movie was very scary: "I was scared to death. I strongly recommend that everyone go and watch. It's really scary. Those three students died so pitifully!”"Not bad, very real." However, not all of them were like this. Some people commented," It's so boring. It's a lousy movie. I almost fell asleep watching it. The picture is blurry and the camera is shaking…"
However, very soon, many people posted: "F * ck, this is a real documentary. It's all filmed by DV. Do you know how to watch it?”
The people who praised were praising, and the people who scolded were also scolding. There were also many questions such as " Is the story of this movie true or false?"," Are the three students dead?"," Does the witch exist?"," Is there a director?", and so on. The people's desire to know the truth had become stronger. More and more people said that they were going to the cinema to find out.
This momentum was very good. Qin Long would not ask everyone to praise Blaire the Witch, that was impossible. Everyone had a different experience watching a movie, so Qin Long would not ask for too much.
The box office statistics for the first day of screening were released in the afternoon. Now that the theater's box office statistics were all online, it was naturally convenient and fast to record every ticket sold. According to the statistics, Oriental Movies had received more than 1.1 million yuan in box office sales on the first day. The price of a movie ticket was 20 Chinese dollars, which meant that more than 50,000 people went to watch the movie on the first day. There were 30 cinemas and 50,000 people. On average, there were close to 2,000 people in each cinema. This was already a miracle for a newly released movie by Little Chen. This was already unbelievable to many people, but Qin Long did not think much of it. In his heart, this was just average. The real climax had yet to come.
Qin Long told Ning Lin, Ah Feng, Lin Yuhong, and the others about the box office results. He smiled at Ning Lin and said,"The current box office earnings are more than 20 times the cost of the movie. You guys are the main characters of such a movie.”Ning Lin rolled her eyes at Qin Long and scolded him jokingly," Come on, the cost is only 50,000 yuan. Including the publicity, it's only 150,000 yuan. But it feels pretty good."”
The box office results for the second day were out. The 70 cinemas had an 85% attendance rate. It was screened three times a day and had earned 2.9 million yuan at the box office. The box office for two days was 4 million yuan. However, due to the advanced entertainment industry in this world, the box office of 4 million yuan was similar to the box office of 1 million yuan on Earth. However, it could earn 1 million yuan in two days. Moreover, there were only a few dozen cinemas. Even those blockbusters might not be able to achieve such results.
"Miss, it's out. This is the box office for the third day.”Yan Wu handed the information in her hand to Dongfang Yanran.
"On the third day, we increased the number of cinemas we screened to 150. We screened it three times a day, and the attendance rate was 89%. The box office was 5.1 million. Including the box office from the previous two days, it was 9.15 million.”
"9.15 million in three days, and the average screening is less than 100 cinemas. Hur hur, 100 million box office earnings seems to be far more than that. Looks like we're going to lose the bet. This is the first time I've lost.”Dongfang Yanran looked at the information in her hand and said with a smile.
Yan Wu also smiled bitterly. When she received the report, she was also in disbelief. Who would have thought that a DV movie with a budget of only 50,000 yuan could achieve such results? At this moment, Qin Long's delicate face and the confidence and arrogance from the bet that day appeared in Yan Wu's mind. She suddenly felt that he was very similar to Miss.
"Increase the number of cinemas to 500, and then increase it to 2000 by the weekend. I'd like to see how big a miracle it is.”Dongfang Yanran said in an unquestionable tone.
The popularity continued. When Oriental Movies faced the 10 million box office earnings on the fourth day, the average attendance rate was 90%. And on the official website's message board, when they received requests from various cities, they changed their minds. Next week, the number of cinemas showing the movie would increase to 2500, and some cinemas in some cities would have multiple cinemas showing it at the same time. At the same time, they increased the publicity fee and uploaded the video of the audience's frightened reaction on the official website. Together with the topic of "whether there are witches", they began a new round of publicity.
Nowadays, there was no one who did not know about this matter on the Internet forums. The word 'witch' had become the most commonly heard word in the ears of the public.
This time, the young people's curiosity and competitiveness were aroused. Taking advantage of the summer vacation, they did not have to get up early to go to school. They all went to the cinema in groups to watch this " most terrifying reality movie ". And those who were frightened as they wished would drag their friends who had not seen it to see it again the next day…
The cinemas in Hong Kong were also in a difficult situation. The tickets for the first show at midnight were often sold out as soon as they were available. The young people who didn't manage to get a ticket sat in the ticket hall, waiting for the second and third rounds in high spirits.
Finally, a week had passed, and the number of cinemas screening the movie had increased to 2500. The box office sales for this week had increased exponentially every day, from 1.1 million on the first day to 32 million on the seventh day. This week's box office sales had also reached 127.5 million. If it was the box office sales on Earth in his previous life, it would have been more than 30 million. It was difficult for even those blockbusters to have such a box office sales. "Breyer the Witch" was ranked second with 127.5 million yuan. The first was Hua Films '"Flames" with 164.11 million yuan. However,"Flames" was a blockbuster that Hua Films had invested a lot of money into. It was a high-investment blockbuster with a cost of 300 million yuan, which meant that it had not yet recovered its cost. On the other hand, the cost of "Breyer the Witch" was almost negligible, with a net profit of 120 million yuan.
According to the bet between Qin Long and Dongfang Yanran, Qin Long could get 60% of the profits. In other words, Qin Long could now get more than 70 million and become a multimillionaire. As for becoming a billionaire, it was only a matter of time. However, Qin Long's attention was not on this. Instead, it was the invitation from Emperor Entertainment Group.
Emperor Entertainment Group Ltd. was established in 1999. It was mainly engaged in the production and distribution of local and foreign records, music publishing, artist management, concert preparation, stage play production, film and television production, multi-media business, merchandise concession and retail. Emperor Entertainment had always been committed to nurturing talented young artists. It was the cradle that nurtured many of the most popular artists in the Hong Kong music industry. Its singers had won countless awards at award ceremonies over the years. Especially since 2002, when the " Thunderbolt Music Class King " was established at the " Celebrity Music Chart Awards Ceremony ", Emperor Entertainment had won the award for the most outstanding entertainment company of the year for three consecutive years, setting a brilliant record that no one could break.
Emperor Entertainment currently holds five music brands: Emperor Entertainment, Musician, Red Music (Red Entertainment), Emperor Visual product (EVP), and EEG Music Family. These music brands gave musicians a lot of space and freedom in the songwriting and music production process. In order to promote local music internationally, Emperor Entertainment also invited world-class musicians to work together to make the field of music more diverse.
Qin Long's singing of " Blue Butterfly " and " School Belle " at the graduation ceremony had attracted a lot of attention from Emperor Entertainment. After discussion, they felt that Qin Long had great talent and potential in music, so they decided to invite Qin Long to join Emperor Entertainment and write songs for him to release an album.
If it was an ordinary person, they would be overjoyed and agree immediately. However, Qin Long considered it for a moment and finally rejected it.
"Mr. Chen, won't you consider it?”The staff from Emperor said, unwilling to give up.
"No, I've already thought about it." Qin Long rejected with a smile.
"Why don't we see what your mother has to say?”The staff of Emperor hoped that Qin Long's mother could change Qin Long's mind. After all, many young mothers hoped that their children could join Emperor every year.
"I'm sorry. My mother won't ask about this.”Of course, Qin Long knew what these people were thinking. How could he let them get what they wanted?
"Hehe, then forget it. Sorry for disturbing you.”The staff of Emperor smiled bitterly. He did not expect Qin Long to be so shrewd and see through his intentions.
"Don't worry. Although I won't sign with Emperor, I didn't say that I won't work with them.”Qin Long said with a smile.
The Imperial Entertainment staff frowned and asked," What do you mean?”
"It's like this." Qin Long organized his words and said," I'll release my own album. Your company can help me release my album through your own sales channels. As for the profit, we'll split it 40 - 60. I'll take 60 and you take 40. How about that?"”
"I'm sorry, I can't make the decision. How about this? I'll arrange for the person in charge of our company to meet you tomorrow.”
"Sure." Qin Long also knew that he was just a part-time worker. He could not make the decision.
That night, Emperor sent a notice to meet Qin Long at Emperor's office building. The next day, Qin Long stood in front of the reception hall of Emperor Entertainment. After taking a deep breath, he had a friendly and confident smile on his face. After explaining his purpose to the receptionist at the front desk, Qin Long was led by a professional staff member to the office where the conversation was held.
This was a luxurious office. Even the chair was comfortable. The person in front was a capable middle-aged man. He had sharp eyebrows, bright eyes, and a high nose bridge.
"Hello, Mr. Chen. Let me introduce myself. My name is Zhang Tianhai, the manager of the sales department.”
"Hello, Mr. Zhao. You can call me Qin Long.”
"Alright, please sit." He pointed at the seat in front of him with his right hand. Qin Long did not stand on ceremony and sat down openly.
