Chapter 405: A Brief Summary and Celebration Party

On the 30th, the interim results of the summer season came out.

First, Pacific Rim.

Currently, Pacific Rim has won 450 million US dollars in the global box office and 660 million RMB in the mainland.

Among them, the box office in the shared areas totaled about 290 million, and the rest were all in the distribution and sell-out areas.

In the future, Pacific Rim will have a release cycle of about one month in the world, and the box office will only increase by about 50 million to 70 million, and most of them are in the sold-out areas.

From the box office point of view, the task was successfully completed.

The original time and space was 410 million, and now it can exceed 500 million, which is very good.

But from the perspective of revenue, it can only be said to be okay.

The production cost of Pacific Rim was 70 million US dollars, and this money did not include the cost of technical development and studio construction.

Add 40 million US dollars in publicity and distribution expenses in the shared areas.

The total cost is 110 million US dollars.

In terms of advertising revenue, it is far less profitable than classic IPs such as Batman.

So now let's calculate the overall.

At present, Xingchen's box office profit from the Pacific Rim project is only about 50 million US dollars.

Add 28 million of distribution and sales, the total is less than 80 million US dollars.

In terms of peripherals, it is also average.

It is okay in North America, but the domestic market is very barren.

The original time and space was not called "just starting" until more than ten years later.

So now we can't expect too much peripheral income.

However, Lu Ping'an has already taken advantage of "Wonderful Night 1" to set up an independent toy company, specializing in the production and authorization of independent IP peripherals and the agency business of other IPs.

The products launched by Pacific Rim now include refined versions of the mechas and monsters in the movie. In cooperation with Taobao, the sales volume is not bad. The movie has been released in the mainland for one month and has sold more than 10,000 pieces.

In terms of physical stores, the museum in the early "Wonderful Night 1" has also changed. While retaining the museum content, it has been replaced by a toy sales point.

At present, most of the products in it are genuine peripheral products of famous IPs.

But I believe that as Xingchen grows stronger in the future, there will be more and more of its own products in it.

Pacific Rim is temporarily summarized, and then we come to We Are From the Future.

The box office of the film reached 220 million in the first month of its release. In the second month, like all movies, it was squeezed by two blockbusters in July, and the box office was pitiful.

So the final box office was fixed at 226 million.

This is the box office of the theater, because the film also has certain special support, and the box office data of other channels is also good, more than 40 million. After the school starts in September, the film will start to be shown in schools across the country, and those box office will not be counted.

In general, the box office share of We Are From the Future is about 80 million yuan, plus copyright income, minus costs, this wave of profits is about 100 million.

The box office of 226 million also made Ning Hao the third director in the mainland to break the 200 million box office of a single movie after Lu Pingan and Lao Mouzi.

It's just that the battle of blockbusters in July was too fierce.

His achievement seems a bit inconspicuous.

But it doesn't matter, it doesn't affect everyone to have a happy celebration banquet together, the time is tonight.

Because of the subject matter of the film, it is not suitable to be too high-profile, so no reporters were invited to the celebration banquet.

So only all the crew members, producers, and advertisers came that night.

After a great time, except for a few people, no one could leave standing.

Ning Hao was very happy, and so were the other four leading actors. This time they also ushered in the peak of their lives.

Everyone got a lot of acting offers through the movie, but the four will still focus on Lu Ping'an's project first.

"We Are From the Future" ended successfully, and Ning Hao will start preparing for "Wonderful Night 2" next.

Huang Bo will continue to play Zhao Kuo, and Zhang Songwen, Zhou Yiwei and Baoqiang will all make cameos.

Dong Xuan's recent net worth has also risen significantly.

The role of the hygienist is indeed very eye-catching, and it has become her iconic role in her career second only to "Goddess Dragon".

Let's not talk about Luo Jingmin. Now he has a lot of acting offers, and he will not take any role casually, because he knows that Lu Ping'an is the most important.

Zhang Yi also gained a lot this time, but compared with the others, his popularity is much lower, so the income is naturally not as good as the others.

However, Zhang Yi will have another classic role next, that is Meng Fan in "My Captain, My Regiment".

Lan Xiaolong has completed the script of "My Regiment" in Tengchong a few days ago. Lu Ping'an will announce the project approval at the celebration banquet of "Soldier Assault" tomorrow night. This matter has been told to Zhang Yi.

In response, Zhang Yi drank nearly two kilograms of white wine tonight, and he couldn't be stopped. He thanked Lu Ping'an thoroughly.

For him, the experience of the past year and a half is quite magical.

At the age of 28, he still has nothing to show for himself. The role of "Shi Jin" came.

Then during the most glorious scene of the role of "Shi Jin", Lu Ping'an happened to visit the crew, and then he was able to witness his wonderful performance with his own eyes, and then he successfully caught the eye of the great god Lu Ping'an, and successfully signed with Xingchen, becoming the third signed actor of Xingchen, that is, "Third Brother".

The signing time also just caught up with the approval of the project of "We Come from the Future", which took this opportunity to enter the big screen, and then he will become the protagonist in "My Regiment".

For this reason, he had already confirmed several times whether there was smoke coming out of his ancestral grave.

Zhang Guoqiang was also grateful to Lu Pingan.

When he was acting in "Soldier Assault", he was already 37 years old. He couldn't even afford the milk powder for his own children and could only rely on his family for support. Later, he became famous for his role as "Seventh Company Commander". Then he got the role of the instructor in "We Come from the Future". Next, he will play "Milong".

Apart from other things, just looking at his income, he has achieved a ten-thousand-fold increase, from a few hundred yuan salary in the drama troupe to today's total income of various film remuneration + endorsements exceeding two million.

So he drank more than two kilograms of white wine tonight, and every sip was full of gratitude.

Seeing this, Huang Bo and others nodded repeatedly. This alcohol tolerance is almost half of Lu Pingan!

Seeing this, Lu Pingan also threw out an invitation for a play.

Although Xingchen will not sign actors casually, it has already started to get involved in the TV drama business, so it is still necessary to sign some worry-free actors.

Zhang Guoqiang was overjoyed after hearing this, and then drank another glass of white wine.

When he woke up, he saw the sun of the next day.

Then at the celebration banquet for "Soldier Assault" the next night, Zhang Yi was already listless, but Zhang Guoqiang was still full of energy. His alcohol tolerance was indeed fierce.

At the celebration banquet, Lu Ping'an directly announced the establishment of the TV series "My Regiment".

The main characters in "Soldier Assault" will continue to participate.

Baoqiang's role in "My Regiment" this time is likely to be cut, but it doesn't matter. There are various projects waiting for him, such as "Shun Liu" and "Lost on Journey". He doesn't lack this role now, and a cameo appearance is already a matter of sentiment, not a matter of interest for the "soldiers".

Duan Long is still the soul figure. This time he became famous with Yuan Lang. He received more than one acting offer, but he still took the same role, carefully selecting, showing his true nature as a drama madman.

However, Yu Feihong said a few days ago that she had finalized the cooperation with Duan Long, and she would start filming her movie after the filming of "My Regiment" was completed.

That movie was "Love Has a Next Life". It took more than a year to shoot in the original time and space. It was released in 2009 with a cost of 40 million and a box office of 2 million.

The movie itself was good, but from a rational point of view, he was not very interested in investing. Yu Feihong did not mention the investment, but Lu Ping'an was at least a person, and he still asked if he needed help. Yu Feihong's expectations on the phone were obviously much happier.

In the end, Lu Ping'an invested 5 million first, and then calculated the overspending.

At that time, with the support of his theaters, publicity and overseas film distributors, this movie might still make money.

A set of standard resources was issued with the 5 million funds, and Yu Feihong was very emotional: the strength of the bigwigs in the entertainment industry is different. Others may not be able to get these resources even if they drink for a few months or pretend to be grandsons for a few months. For Lu Ping'an, it's just a matter of a word.

What he said is right. Xingchen is now a giant in the mainland. A little resource leaking out of his fingers can make ordinary people fly directly.

But in Lu Ping'an's view, the two are the same. You can bring ghosts to the big screen, so you are not worse than me.

To be honest, this kind of thing is really not easy for Lu Pingan to compare now.

Now Xingchen's movies are all green lights in the eyes of a certain bureau.

Other companies have a hard time getting licenses and dragon marks.

The main thing is that it takes a lot of time, and the review cycle is at least five weeks.

But at Xingchen, it is calculated in days. The fastest time can be done within one day, such as "1937". The rest are basically the top priority and will not exceed one month at the latest.

This is the "privilege" of the banner bearer.

But even so, it cannot realize the embodiment of "ghosts".

The "Happy Family" he gave to Ning Hao involved ghosts, and it still took more than a month to pass the script review in the end. The cost was from "ghosts" to "mental illness".

But Yu Feihong

Not only passed the review, but also successfully obtained the dragon mark, and successfully went to the theaters. The key is that it was not stuck for several years or even months.

So Lu Pingan decided to be gentle to her when they met a few days later

Finally, it was Chen Sicheng.

When the young man toasted, he said: "Director Lu, I have watched all your movies in the past period of time, all in the cinema. I also wrote a total of more than 30,000 words of review, so I want to toast you as a fan, thank you for sending so many good movies to our fans!"

What a good talker!

The others were moved.

After hearing this, Lu Pingan remembered the joke he made at the beginning.

At that time, he asked Baoqiang to tell him to watch his movie.

In fact, he just wanted to get back his money, after all, he contributed a lot of movie tickets to this guy in his previous life.

But then he forgot.

At this moment, the young man mentioned it so tactfully, Lu Pingan thought it was very interesting.

Then it happened that he took this opportunity to accept him: "Really? Give me your review tomorrow morning, don't be unable to produce it by then!"

Chen Sicheng instantly understood the meaning, and then was overjoyed: "Okay!"

Finally, "Soldier Assault" also drew a stage end.

All things were settled, and the next day, August arrived.

"Kung Fu Panda", which had been prepared for a long time, was also about to take off.
