Hong Kong Island King Fried

Chapter 220 One of them is dead, still playing?

The box office on the first day was 860 million, which is considered a very good result. It is expected to hit the top ten box office of the year.

Three days later, the box office reached a peak of 1062 million,
According to professional forecasts in the industry, the total box office of this film should be close to 6000 million before it is released.

Lin Jiajun was a little surprised when he first heard about this figure, because in his impression, the local box office of the original Space-Time Hong Kong Island movie was the highest in history, which seemed to be around 6000 million. 4000 million, if there are more than 1000 million, they are eligible to enter the top ten.

Later, when I thought about it, I suddenly realized that the population of Hong Kong Island in this time and space is several times that of the original time and space, and the box office will naturally double, just like last year's box office champion, with a local income of 1.4 million.

Since I got involved in the entertainment industry, I checked some information and found that the current film entertainment on Hong Kong Island is actually not a particularly large industry.

In the past few years, the annual domestic box office of all Hong Kong films exceeded 30 billion yuan, so the overseas distribution revenue brought by them was about 1.4 times that of the local box office. , Seven or eight billion, less than ten billion.

It cannot be compared with the stock market, finance, real estate, construction, export trade, and even tourism, the pillar industries of Hong Kong Island.

However, the profits are very high.

For example, this time Dongying, all the production costs were added up, and it didn’t cost 600 million yuan. If the local movie share, if it can be as predicted, the total box office is 6000 million yuan, then Dongying can get more than 2500 million yuan;
This is still small.

Hong Kong Island is currently the center of Asian movies. It has a certain local box office. Movies with a little bit of considerable value can easily sell their copyrights to Japan, South Korea and Southeast Asia. The ratio between the overall box office and export revenue is about 1:1.4, and this is an average.

Poor movies may not be sold at all, or they may be sold at a very cheap price. The top movies far exceed the average of 1:1.4. Dongying probably can buy 1:1.8 at least this time, that is to say, With a local box office of 6000 million, if you sell overseas copyrights, you can sell it for over [-] million.

This part of the money is earned by Dongying, and there is no need to share the account with the cinema.

A movie with a cost of less than 600 million, in just two months, finally recovered 1.3 million, 20 times the profit, safe and legal, more profitable than arms smuggling and drug trafficking, no wonder all major societies want to get involved in movies now lock up.

The premise is that with a good script and a good director, one can produce a blockbuster movie.Otherwise, like the literary film produced by Dayong before, with a big production of tens of millions, and several months of filming and shooting, the final local box office was less than 400 million, and the overseas copyright could not be sold at all. A lot of precious time.

Come out to hang out, time is valuable, not making money is a loss, and making less is also a loss.

However, the money has nothing to do with Lin Jiajun, he was just helping out, so he took a red envelope of [-] yuan to make a point, and went to the ICAC to file a record to say hello,

The ICAC has never dealt with the police, but this time the attitude is good. After work, everyone is human, and they will go to the cinema to watch movies, date, and play. Many people may have seen this movie and saw Lin Jiajun coming. , They all laughed and joked to find the big star's autograph.

In short, Dongying's first film got off to a good start, the signboard was well established, and the company was rich. Li Lianjie and Xiao Jieba successfully signed a contract to become Dongying artists, and the left hand sent a big red envelope to everyone in the previous crew. For a group trip to relax, the choice happened to be Yang Qianer's team.

Speaking of tourism, the distance is not far away. Just in the north of the New Territories, there are several local villages that still retain the social customs of farming. You can vacation in the mountains and go out to sea near the sea.

"Beihai Village?"

Lin Jiajun looked at the name of the village on the travel plan, and naturally thought of an old horror movie, but the name was different, and then asked what he said before; It won't be haunted, will it?"

"I beg you not to be so stinky, okay, my first big business, can you say something auspicious?" Yang Qian'er was very speechless: "Speaking of which, this is an agricultural society, but it has water and electricity, so it can be regarded as Hong Kong Island. It’s a famous place for vacation and tourism. There are tour groups going there every year. How can it be haunted! I really can’t see through you. You are not surprised at all when you face the real vicious murderer. How can you be suspicious at every turn? Ghost?"

"Damn! Miss, that's not what you said, okay! There is everything in the world, you can't just deny the existence of a group just because you don't know it!"

Auxiliary policeman Lin Zhongfa, who happened to be on duty with Lin Jiajun today, said with a gloomy face.

"I don't know if there are ghosts, but sometimes people are scarier than ghosts, just like this Sir, why do you look so gloomy like a ghost, like a horror movie with a backlight? , have been listening to you talking to yourself?" Yang Qian'er, who was sitting in the co-pilot, glanced at Lin Zhongfa, who was pretending to be terrified, from the rearview mirror, and said with some fear.

"Don't worry about him, he's schizophrenic." Lin Jiajun said.

……

……

"Ah May, are you happy with this trip? It has been postponed for a month. Be careful, the boss will get mad."

In the newspaper office, Li Jingtong saw a colleague who had finally returned from a vacation, and greeted her with a smile.

Before, Lin Jiajun asked her about the Ghost Stories Association. This colleague had been exposed to relevant news before, but when he called the other party at that time, the other party changed his number, so he agreed to wait until she came back to ask again.

The other party just came back today, full of travel and dust, and had to report to her superiors, so Li Jingtong didn't ask any questions immediately, and planned to wait for her to settle down a bit before speaking.

Ah May's face looked very haggard, as if she hadn't slept well, she squeezed out a forced smile, and said, "I'm going to report to the boss now, and then I'll take a day off. Say more."

"Okay." Li Jingtong thought for a while and nodded.

Ah May quickly came out of the editor's office of the newspaper, and went home without talking to anyone.

As soon as she got home and entered the door, there were two men and a woman waiting for her at home. She didn't know what happened, but she even left the key to the door.
"Hey, have you thought about it? The last time you played, the glasses died inexplicably. The death was so miserable that even the police didn't know what happened. It scared me out of the country. Do you want to play this time?"

"May, I went to ask the master for advice. The master said that we are haunted by ghosts. There is no use in hiding. We must face it head-on. We thought about it and played again to see if we can find the ghost of the glasses. , at least ask what's going on." A man said.
