Post-shadow Development Plan

Although traffic stars can bring very high economic benefits, the cost invested in them is also very high.Even for a company like J, which has its own system and can achieve a certain degree of internal digestion, the cost of cultivating a traffic star group is hundreds of millions of yen.

Of course, the company invests so much money in order to get a return, so usually the contracts of traffic stars in the first few years are vampire contracts, which belong to the kind that you will never give up until you are drained.

Of course, if the performance is good, the contract will be appropriately relaxed in the future, and even if you can break away from the traffic star and reach the real big-level artist, you may have the opportunity to get a small amount of shares to enter the company's management.

But as a starlet who has just debuted for only two years, Baimucao doesn't have much money to mobilize at all. In addition, he usually spends money lavishly, not to mention deposits, even credit cards. It is in a state of overdraft all the year round.

In this case, the agent didn't think that this man could spend such a sum of money to buy the box office of his own movie.

Baimucao waved his hand: "It's okay, just borrow from the company. I remember the company has a budget for this."

Hearing these words, the manager's eyebrows twitched, and he had a vague premonition.

As an idol management company, the J family does have such a budget, using the high box office of the first week to create the illusion that the movie is hot to stimulate the real box office. Although this kind of thing is not common for those big-name stars, it is definitely not uncommon.

However, the money from the J family is not a charitable donation. Although any artist under the company can use the money, they have to pay it back after using it, and the interest is almost the same as a usury loan.

It's just that for those artists who don't have a lot of money and urgently need to buy box office to support the scene, it is obviously safer to use J's internal money than to borrow usury outside, at least they will not worry about being exposed in the media.

But this is still not a good choice. For those artists who failed to repay the money, the debt will only make them the slaves of the J family in the case of compound interest. .

"Don't worry, I'm not crazy." Seeing what his agent wanted to say, Baimucao immediately stopped him, "You know how realistic our company is, if they can't produce impressive results, they won't continue It was invested in me. So I can’t fail this movie no matter what, and once it fails, I will never have a chance to turn around. I will pay this money, otherwise I will die without a place to die.”

"Okay, I see. I'll get ready right away."

Seeing that Baimucao was so persistent, the economic man had no choice but to agree to his request and turned to leave.

It's a pity that Baimucao completely forgot that he had deeply offended the director of his film because of the fact that he dug a hole for the crew of "Kingdom of the Sky".Or he still remembered, but subconsciously ignored it.

But Huajing Ryuichi did not forget that he had always wanted to avenge his apprentice, but he just dug a big hole and waited for Baimucao to jump down on his own initiative.

pS: The plot of this article is purely fictitious, and it is not clear whether there will be such a fee in the real film company.

However, things like buying box office to support the show actually exist in the entertainment industry all over the world, in order to create an empty scene to attract passers-by and fans to buy tickets to enter.But this is not a mainstream operation after all, so the phenomenon is basically not too common, and it will basically only focus on the box office data of the first three days.

As for the movie theater's own ghost field, that's another kind of operation.

Chapter 30 Dating?certainly not!

As time entered the second half of August, the youth campus romance drama "Campus Window" starring the well-known director Hanai Ryuichi and J's current popular idol Momokusado Shin was released.

Generally speaking, such a movie that can be regarded as a strong alliance, even if it cannot dominate the box office charts like the two super hits "Snow in the Wild" and "The Realm of the Sky" in the previous summer, at least it is certainly not profitable. any problem.

As the current popular idol promoted by the J family, Bamica's popularity is on the rise at this time, and it should be said to be the most popular male idol this year when the team is disbanded and solo.

As a film director, Hanai Ryuichi, although he is not considered a heavyweight director, but he has always been famous for his neat and tidy films.Although it is difficult for Hanai Ryuichi's films to have any special highlights, his film standards are very stable, and both the narrative rhythm and the plot grasp have reached the level of perfection in the school drama.Coupled with the handsome appearance of those youth idols, it can be said that there is basically no possibility of losing money.

In Japan, whenever a school idol movie is mentioned, the first combination that investors react to is [directed by Hanai + J’s idol]. In their eyes, such a combination should be the best choice to make money without losing money.

然而现实的结果却是大跌眼镜，《校园之窗》虽然一开场的还算不错。8300万日元的首周票房成绩并没能阻止拿到1亿5800万日元周票房的《空之境界》票房继续蝉联周冠军，但至少也以超出No.3《雪茫危机》1000多万日元的票房成为拿下了周亚军。

However, the situation took a turn for the worse from the second week onwards. First, many well-known film critics gave overwhelmingly negative reviews.

"Very boring movie, especially when the main character's face looks as lifeless as the zombies in Resident Evil."

"If you don't know how to waste time, then this movie is a very good choice, and then you will find that eating shit is not a very difficult thing."

"If you want acting skills but you don't have acting skills, you want good looks but you don't have good looks. I don't know what the purpose of this movie is."

···

Immediately after the bad reviews from film critics came the collapse of the audience's word of mouth. Many people gave [very poor] reviews after watching the movie, and many of them even had fans of J's own family.These fans really can't accept their idol's performance in this movie, it looks so ugly.

The ensuing result of this situation is an avalanche decline in the box office.

By the second week, the box office score of "Campus Window" had dropped from 8300 million yen to 3200 million yen, falling directly to No.3.

But it's not over yet. By the third week, the results of "Campus Window" were just over 1000 million yen.

It is estimated that the final score of this movie will only stay at around 3 million. Although this score may not be a loss from the perspective of the production cost of this movie alone, considering that the J family is investing in the traffic of the movie’s protagonist Bamucao in other places No matter how you look at it, this result cannot be called a success.

In contrast, it was the debut film "The Realm of the Sky", directed by Long Yi's disciple Kiryu Nanaya, which became very popular.With word-of-mouth fermenting, "The Realm of the Sky" has earned a box office of 10 billion yen within a month of its release. According to the current box office trend, the final score of this urban fantasy drama will definitely reach 25 billion yen. Yuan, maybe even lucky enough to hit the third place in the annual local box office of 30 billion yen.

As a small production with a cost of less than 5000 million yen, such a result can no longer be described as a dark horse at the box office. You must know that even robbing a bank may not necessarily have such a high rate of return.

Seeing the rising box office numbers, Qiye felt really happy. The long-cherished wish of two lifetimes and the grievance of nearly half a year finally vented out in one breath at this moment.

"But teacher, is he okay?"

Looking at the results of "Window of Campus", Qiye felt a little worried. He was too lazy to care about that guy's life and death for Bamucao, but as Long Yi's disciple, he was still very worried that this movie would ruin his teacher's career as a director.

Zhi Zhi, who was sitting next to Qiye, tilted his head and recalled: "Probably not, I met the teacher when I was doing publicity the day before yesterday, and I was quite happy to see the expression on his face."

Since August, weaving has been running all over the country for the promotion of the movie, and his footprints have almost spread all over Japan.And compared to other movie stars, Zhi Zhi's fatigue value for participating in the promotion is obviously much higher than them.Because every publicity he has to endure a mental shock.After all, as a boy, not everyone can bear to see fans shouting "Sister Shi, I love you" every time.

"It's really torture..."

Zhi lay on the table and looked at Qiye who was writing some plans with a displeased face, "Some people are so kind, they force the younger generation to overwork, but he hides in the air-conditioned room to relax."

Qiye's expression froze: "Don't say that, didn't I also go to several promotional activities?"

But Qiye's answer obviously didn't satisfy his younger generation: "Apart from the two games in Tokyo, and the one in Osaka and Nagoya, have you been anywhere else?"

"Well~ Anyway, the focus of the promotion is you, so I won't try to overwhelm the host."

Qiye didn't dare to look at Zhizhi, he lowered his head a little guiltyly.
