Chapter 166: Who is Your Baby!

On the evening of August 10th, at the hotel.
With the huge success of "Secret", the creators have become even busier. They have been traveling to Hangzhou, Chengdu, Changsha, Nanjing, Jiangcheng, and Chongqing in the past four days.
All the creators split into two groups, with He and Hugo, and Pucunxi in one group，and Wuer Shan leading Anxi, Liusisi, and Tang Yan in the other group, all doing crazy roadshows.
Today, we landed in Chongqing at 9 o'clock and ran to more than a dozen cinemas non-stop to interact with the audience on site.
For every cinema, Yao Dong will explain: "Qian Qian is in Jiangcheng, come back to Chongqing next time."
This next time, it has to be after August 2009 at least.
Of course, he hasn't been spared from being asked by fans: "When is the concert?" "How did you make two billion in 2002?"
Yao Dong's reply is still a secret that cannot be disclosed.
Back at the hotel, Yao Dong is very, very tired, but he can't fall asleep, waiting for the latest box office data.
Right now, he is chatting with Hu Ge sentence by sentence, the episode 8 of the TV series "Sword of Legends: Prequel" that he stars in has premiered.
Frankly speaking, Hu Ge, Liu Sisi, and Tang Yan have been really exhausted these days. After wrapping up the shooting of "The First Intimate Contact" on July 18th, they immediately started promoting "Secret" and had to also promote "The Legend of Sword and Fairy: Precious Youth".
"Dī dī dī dī"
Yao Dong deleted the report on "Four Beauties of Xianjian" and opened Xie Xiaoqie, then opened the email sent by Wang Yuying.
"Wanda Cinema: 8.5056 million,
中影星美院线：494.25万，
中影南方新干线：490.82万，
京城新影联院线：482.48万，
上海联合院线：478.25万，
The box office of Sichuan Taiping Cinema was 4.7535 million.
……
The total box office for the first 11 days of "Secret" was 51.2039 million.
Generally speaking, the box office for the second week usually drops by 30%-60% compared to the first week.
It is rare that the movie "The Stone" experienced a reverse increase in box office revenue in July. In the first 10 days, it only made over 28 million RMB, but when it finished its run, the box office soared to 59.23 million RMB. This is something that general movies cannot achieve.
The second week box office of "Secret" had a decrease of 15%, although it did not reach 30%.
Although this box office performance has outperformed "Dragon Tiger Gate" by a mile, a new film "Garfield 2" was released today.
"Oh..."
Yao Dong leaned back in his chair and sighed, reflecting on the difficulties of making a film.
"I'm telling you, it's enough!"
Hu Ge nudged Yao Dong and said, "We've already reached 50 million, aren't you satisfied? I'm leaving tomorrow morning. Zhang director has been urging for the premiere of 'The Call' for several days now. Aren't you going?"
"No, I'm not going."
Yao Dong picked up his phone and sent a message in the QQ group: "50 million, I'll be back in Beijing tomorrow, and we'll have a celebration the day after tomorrow!"
"Secret" production + marketing costs 30 million, relying solely on box office revenue, it earned nearly 100 million box office. Yao Dong couldn't even dream of it. In 2006, a youth romance film could break the hundred million mark.
The original intention of making this film was only for myself and Xi Xi to make a breakthrough in the big screen.
After being released for 11 days, it has already made over 50 million at the box office. Adding the previous sponsorship fees and the upcoming revenue from copyrights, it is highly likely that "Secret" will not lose money, and may even make a small profit. Yao Dong is already very content.
"Fuck!"
Just realized the news, Hu Ge kicked Yao Dong and said, "Are you kidding me! I'm going to meet Zhang Dao tomorrow, and you're planning a celebration the day after tomorrow?"
"The 601st Call" will be released on August 18th. These days, facing the media, although Hu Ge has some promotion with it, it's almost the premiere ceremony, so he really needs to meet people.
"It won't affect your premiere in Guangzhou on the 13th." Yao Dong smirked.
"Why don't you go to Guangzhou?" Hu Ge invited again.
"I won't steal your limelight. Just tell Zhang director like this would be fine."
If the premiere of "The Phone" is really going to happen, reporters will catch whoever they can to ask questions. Yao Dong has too many "unspeakable secrets" on him now.
Jiangcheng, a suite in a certain hotel.
Dong dong dong!
"Muah~"
An Xi just opened the door and was immediately hugged by Liu Si Si. Liu Si Si excitedly said, "We don't have to do the roadshow tomorrow!"
"Tsk~"
An Xi stepped back and threatened, "If you touch me again, I will mention you on my Weibo and expose you as a blind teacher."
Liu Sisi grabbed Qianqian's hand and shook it, saying, "Don't do it, baby~"
Thanks to the recent high exposure of "Xianjian Four Beauties," when Weibo went online on July 30th, Liu Sisi received many "little lions." If she really gets exposed by Qianqian and gets mentioned by "Shame of Central Academy of Drama," she will be "socially dead" just like them.
"Who is your baby!"
茜茜伸手抵住刘思思，再次威胁道：“信不信我现在就@你？”
……
Rich, resourceful, and with few artists, this is the understanding of the artists and directors in the industry towards Qingyun Films.
青云影视做电视剧起家，做一部火一部，参投的项目也都是好项目；进军电影，投的第一部就火了，还捧了个新导演；第二部《不能说的秘密》明明是捧儿子的，这眼瞅着破亿都有可能，再次捧了个新导演！
In 2002, Zhang Yimou became the first member of the "Billion-dollar directors club" in China with his film "Hero". After that, his film "House of Flying Daggers" also surpassed one billion yuan at the box office. Following him, Feng Xiaogang, Stephen Chow, Chen Kaige, and Yuen Woo-ping joined the "Billion-dollar directors club" with their films "A World Without Thieves", "Kung Fu Hustle", "The Promise", and "Fearless" respectively.
There are only five directors in total, but they have made six movies that grossed over 100 million yuan!
How old is Wu Ershan?
He is 34, and he has the chance to enter the "100 million club". Moreover, his second movie has a budget of 100 million yuan and is about to start shooting. Not to mention Huang Bo, Liu Hua, Liu Sisi, Yang Mi, how many people knew about them before?
At one time, the popular and not-so-popular directors and actors in the industry were all contacting Qingyun Film and Television.
The next afternoon, at Qingyun Film and Television, in the reception room.
In the midst of his busy schedule, Yao Dong met with Ma Tianxing, who had contacted him multiple times.
After a burst of commercial hype, the two started talking about "Secret."
About an hour later, Ma Tianxing's tone suddenly changed, and he laughed, asking, "President Yao, what do you think of our Ah Li?"
"There is a bright future ahead."
Yao Dong poured two cups of tea for them and said, "Mr. Ma, go ahead with what you want to say."
"Collaboration."
After tasting the tea, Ma Tianxing smiled and said, "Together, let's bring the future lifestyle from the movies into reality! Moreover, Qingyun Entertainment is well-known, yet the entertainment industry is so weak. Through in-depth collaboration, the advantages of capital will become more apparent. With our collaboration, whether it is in the internet or the entertainment industry, nothing will stop us!"
In June of this year, Ma Tianxing shocked the whole circle by buying a 10.7% stake in Huayi for a low price of 535,000 RMB.
People in the circle can see through it, but no one wants to reveal the truth.
This guy actually has the idea of ​​starting a Blue Cloud Movies and Television now. I'm afraid it's just a dream, right?
Yao Dong smiled and, with his business acumen, didn't dare to cooperate with Ma Tianxing. He politely declined, saying, "General Ma, the success of Tengxin today is the result of the efforts of Pony and the others. Blue Cloud Movies and Television is also built up bit by bit by my mother. It doesn't have much to do with me."
