Entertainment: While Yang Mi is still young, I tricked her into investing in me

"You knew it would be this much?" Yang Mi asked in disbelief.

"Almost. I expected less than this, but not much." Chen Le said lightly.

"So how much do you think the box office of "Night Club" will be in the end?" Yang Mi looked at Chen Le straight in the eye and asked.

"I thought eight or nine million was stable before, but now it seems that eleven or twelve million is not impossible." Chen Le answered truthfully.

Just as they continued to check the box office data, their phones rang at the same time.

Yang Mi answered the phone, and the call was from Liu Sishi.

"Mi Mi, have you seen the box office data?" Liu Sishi's first sentence was to ask Yang Mi if she had seen the box office of the movie.

"Yes, I saw it." Yang Mi replied.

"Mi Mi, congratulations! I didn't expect that the box office of this movie on the first day was more than 1.4 million. I remember you said that the investment in this movie seemed to be only two million." Liu Sishi's words could not hide her excitement.

It is really amazing that a movie with an investment of two million can achieve such a box office on the first day.

"Haha, Sishi, I didn't expect it to be so much. I thought it was only 400,000 or 500,000 at first. Now this situation is beyond my expectation." Yang Mi also shared with Liu Sishi excitedly.

"Mimi, I didn't expect your boyfriend's movie to be so good. It's almost paid off on the first day. It's worth it for you to promote him every day." Tang Yan's voice suddenly came from the phone.

Hearing Tang Yan's words, Yang Mi also said proudly: "That's right, don't you look at whose boyfriend it is!"

Yang Mi chatted with Tang Yan and Liu Sishi.

Same.

Chen Le also received a call from Dean Wang.

He walked to the balcony.

"Old Wang, why are you calling so late? Are you learning from us young people to stay up late?" Chen Le opened his mouth and teased Dean Wang.

"Don't be so talkative, kid, have you seen the box office data?" Dean Wang's voice came from the phone again.

"I saw it. I stayed up so late just to see the box office data." Chen Le put away his joking thoughts and replied seriously.

"Hey, from your tone, why do you seem not excited at all?" Dean Wang was a little surprised to hear Chen Le's calm tone.

He was shocked when he saw the box office of 1.43 million.

Because this is a small-scale movie with a cost of only two million, and there is no money for publicity. Although Yang Mi helped to promote it, it is not easy to achieve such a result.

Now hearing Chen Le's tone, it seems that he is not excited or surprised at all, which makes him feel a little strange.

"Haha, Lao Wang, because I guessed it would be so much before. Of course, the premise is not to collide with the movie of Master Xing and others."

Chen Le smiled and said.

"You actually guessed it a long time ago?" Dean Wang was a little surprised that Chen Le actually said that he could predict the box office of the movie.

Even the most powerful director dare not say that he predicts the box office. After all, there are too many factors that affect the box office. No one dares to brag before the final data is released.

"Yeah." Chen Le responded again.

"Looking at the first day's box office, you've made a lot of money this time, and you've become famous overnight." Dean Wang sighed.

With such a return rate for this first movie, Chen Le's fame will definitely spread throughout the director circle.

"This is all thanks to your help, Old Wang. If it weren't for your help, I'd probably still be worried about the theater chain." Chen Le smiled.

"I, an old man, can only help a little bit. Now is the era of you young people." Dean Wang sighed again.

"Okay, it's getting late. I'm not as old as you young people. I can't stand it anymore." After saying that, Dean Wang hung up the phone.

At this time, Yang Mi was still chatting with Liu Sishi and the others.

After chatting for more than ten minutes, she hung up the phone.

"Mi Mi, whose phone is it?" Chen Le asked with a smile.

"Sishi and Tang Yan's phone calls." Yang Mi put away her phone and answered.

"They came to ask about the box office. The first day box office of Nightclub shocked them, haha." Yang Mi was very happy. After all, she also invested in this movie, which was equivalent to her shooting it.

"Did you just answer the call from Dean Wang? I heard you call Lao Wang."

Chen Le nodded, "Yes, Lao Wang is the same as Liu Sishi and others, they are all here to ask about the box office."

Chen Le was in a good mood.

"Haha, this is a big happy event, they must come to ask." Yang Mi said with a smile.

"Since it's a big happy event, shouldn't we celebrate it?" Chen Le's eyebrows jumped, and he looked at Yang Mi with a smile.

"It's so late? Where to celebrate? Or wait until tomorrow?" Yang Mi asked in confusion."No need to wait until tomorrow, you can do it now." Chen Le smiled maliciously.

"What do you mean you can do it now?" Yang Mi didn't react.

Then, the lights went out.

......

At this time, on the other side.

In an Internet cafe.

There was also a person staring at the computer screen waiting for the box office to be refreshed.

And this person was Wang Baoqiang.

Because his mobile phone was just a copycat phone and couldn't access the Internet.

In order to see the box office of "Night Club", he came to the Internet cafe and booked a night to wait for the box office to be refreshed.

When he saw that the box office of "Night Club" on the first day was 1.43 million, his eyes widened and he thought he had seen it wrong.

Then he rubbed his eyes and refreshed it several times before accepting this fact.

Seeing this number, Wang Baoqiang was surprised and happy.

He was surprised that the box office of "Night Club" was so high, and he was happy that Director Chen was so powerful.

Last night, he heard Director Chen say that the filming funds for "Night Club" were only two million yuan. Now the box office on the first day of the film was 1.43 million yuan. Doesn't this mean that the investment can be recovered in two days?

Wang Baoqiang thought so, and he was a little excited.

Of course, he was wrong to think so. He didn't understand what box office was.

Generally speaking, the box office of a movie is considered to be recovered when it is three times the investment, not just looking at the box office.

After all, the box office money is not all the filming party's. It has to pay taxes and share with the theater chain. Only after the division is completed, it belongs to the filming party.

In this way, if you want to have two million, you can't do it without three times the box office.

If it is lower than this multiple, it is easy to lose money and work in vain.

But even so, there are still countless people who are eager to make movies.

Because this industry is really profitable.

One by one, they make a lot of money, and they are also beautiful.

Wang Baoqiang also thought so. He had been struggling for so many years, always playing minor roles, but he still persisted, just for a chance to become famous, even if the chance was very slim.

Now, he encountered this opportunity.

So he was very excited, because this might change his life.
