On July 21, "Dying to Survive" was officially released on its first day, while three other blockbusters were competing for the summer box office at the same time.
China Film Network released the latest box office data:
Hollywood blockbuster "The Force Awakens": 31.64% of the screenings, fourth day online, first day box office 175 million, the total box office so far is 631 million.
Su Bai's "Dying to Survive" boasts a 28.82% screening schedule and has grossed 300 million yuan in just 10 hours. It broke the domestic first-day box office record within 10 hours of its release, and received a 9.8 rating on ticket purchasing platforms and a 9.5 rating on Huaban.com.
"Survival on Desert Island" directed by Huang Bo: 20.19% of the screenings, the second day of its release, the first day box office was 152 million yuan, and the total box office so far is 316 million yuan.
There are still many small films that occupy less than 20% of the remaining screenings, and they are basically flops.
As soon as the data came out, the whole network was shocked!
You have to know that the total investment of "Dying to Survive" was only 80 million. Now this data means that it has paid back in just 10 hours, and every day after that is profitable...
This made Yida, Penguin and Kuaiyin, who had jumped on the bandwagon, ecstatic. Judging from the situation, as long as the word of mouth does not collapse, the movie will definitely make at least 3 billion yuan at the box office.
Su Bai’s first step into the film industry was not only successful, but it also took him directly to the top of the mountain!
This makes many investors green-eyed!
There is still a huge gap between movies and TV series. Just talking about making money, no matter how popular a TV series is, it will never make as much money as a movie.
Taking Su Bai's "Dying to Survive" as an example, cinemas took about 50% of the profits, national taxes 3.3%, national film funds 5%, advertising and promotion 3-8%, and film producers 33-39%.
Su Bai’s advertising share this time was not high, and in the end he could basically get about 36% of the profit.
In other words, if the movie finally reaches a box office of 3 billion, Su Bai will be able to get a profit of 3 billion*0.36*0.4.
According to the investment amount, Su Bai only invested 32 million, of which 20 million was his salary, and he actually only took out 12 million.
In summary, if the final box office is 3 billion, Su Bai only invested 12 million, but made a profit of more than 400 million.
This is scarier than robbing a bank!
Of course, other investors also made a lot of money. Wang Cong has been talking nonsense recently, and he keeps asking Su Bai to take his virginity with him.
But the upright Mr. Su refused. He was so busy that he had no time to rest, going on roadshows to promote the film in theaters all over the country.
Then enjoy a wave of abuse from the audience.
That’s right, insults.
It wasn’t until the afternoon of the 21st that a film critic wrote a serious review, and most viewers who hadn’t seen the film found out—
This is actually a tragedy that reflects social reality?!
Few people who watched this movie didn’t cry!
As a result, the trending search #苏白真狗! # was pushed directly to the top.
In addition, 4 or 5 of the top 10 hot searches are basically related to "Dying to Survive".
Those who have watched the movie praised the movie and the actors' acting skills, while scolding Su Bai.
Those who didn't watch the movie were looking forward to it while cursing Su Bai.
On the 27th, the seventh day after the movie was officially released, the country announced a new policy - zero tariffs on imported anti-cancer drugs and inclusion of most drugs in medical insurance.
In fact, this is a new regulation that the country has already determined, but it was released in advance while the popularity of "Dying to Survive" was high, which is equivalent to adding fuel to the fire of "Dying to Survive"!
The whole network was shocked when the news came out!
A movie actually promoted the promulgation of national laws!
Those who understand will naturally understand that the country is just taking this opportunity to release it early, and "Dying to Survive" is just lucky to have happened upon it.
But the onlookers don’t understand!
Especially the little ones’ admiration for Su Bai has reached an extreme!
The final box office data of "Dying to Survive" on the first day was 628 million yuan. A week later, due to official policies and word of mouth, it actually reversed the decline. On July 28, the box office reached 700 million yuan, and the cumulative box office has reached 3.8 billion yuan.
Although the subsequent performance has gradually weakened, the 5 billion box office is unlikely to be missed...
This also means that Su Bai has become one of China's top directors with just one movie.
So terrifying!
Su Bai’s phone has been almost blown up recently. Most of the calls are congratulations, and the rest are requests for cooperation.
Investors, actors, and advertisers seek endorsements.
Those who can get Su Bai's phone number directly are considered to have very powerful backgrounds, and there are also a lot of cooperation invitations from Jiang Huai.
Now Su Bai still doesn't have his own assistant, but Jiang Huai already has two...
Otherwise, I would be too busy and would have no time to do anything else just answering the phone every day.
For two consecutive weeks, Su Bai basically visited one city a day. He brought Zhang Yu and Zhou Yiwei with him, while Xu Shanzheng brought Tan Zhao, Wang Yanhui and several other important supporting actors.
The two teams went on roadshows in more than 30 cities in half a month, and they really worked very hard.
By August 18, "Dying to Survive" officially broke the 5 billion box office, with the total box office on that day being 5.03 billion.
Su Bai, who had rested for several days, did not forget about revenge and immediately posted a Weibo:
[Thank you to all the audiences who supported "Dying to Survive". It was you who made Xiao Su, who was ambitious and overconfident, stride directly into the 5 billion box office club!
I will work harder to bring you better works in the future, and try not to make mistakes. I am grateful for meeting you, and it is an honor.]
I heard that after Su Bai posted this Weibo post, a famous director lost his temper at home and even smashed his favorite tea set...
