Throughout August, the box office of the two films, Dancer, drew a nearly perfect quadratic parabola curve.
It opens low and ends high, then stabilizes and ends perfectly.
As of August 31st, both films were taken off the screen at the same time.
The total box office of "Dancing Girl" is 290 million.
"The Dancing Girl of Izu", with a total box office of 280 million.
Lu Hao felt a little disappointed that neither of them broke 300 million, but Chu Wen seemed quite happy.
I finally have a movie that can be shown on the big screen, and it does very well at the box office.
A box office of nearly 300 million is a perfect score for any director's big screen debut.
You know, before filming started, she always thought that this movie would lose money.
"Dancing Girl" means a lot to her.
It is a demon in the heart and also a burden.
Now, I have unloaded the burden and all the demons in my heart are gone.
Overseas screening rights for both films have also been sold.
Under normal circumstances, the current Chinese film market is basically in a state of self-entertainment, and the overseas box office cannot fetch much.
The overseas copyright of "Dancing Girl" was sold for only one million US dollars, which is considered a fair market price.
However, Lu Hao sold "The Dancing Girl of Izu" at a high price of 10 million US dollars!
The secret is - Izu.
Before the movie was released, Lu Hao found out from reading the reviews on Rotten Tomatoes that "The Dancing Girl of Izu" was actually more in line with the aesthetics of the island country.
In fact, this is true.
In another island country in a parallel time and space, this is a national treasure-level movie, and that kind of "mono no aware beauty" once became a national cultural label.
Now that I’ve filmed it myself, there’s no reason not to make a fortune from it.
The overseas copyright of "The Dancing Girl of Izu" was obtained by the other party on their own initiative.
The other party here refers to the Izu Prefecture Tourism and Culture Industry Development Fund.
Using entertainment products to promote the tourism market is a common practice used by many local governments in island countries.
For example, the very famous emoticon package - Kumamon.
Kumamon is a two-dimensional doll. After being vigorously promoted by Kumamoto Prefecture, it quickly gained super popularity and became unimaginably popular all over the world.
It even became the mascot of Kumamoto Prefecture, serving as the Minister of Sales and Minister of Happiness.
It has generated great cultural value and economic benefits for the local tourism market.
With a precedent set, other places naturally followed suit.
Izu Prefecture is also a tourist destination.
The fund asked a third-party data statistics company to conduct an investigation. Since the release of "The Dancing Girl of Izu", the hot search index of the three-character place name Izu County has skyrocketed. The air ticket index during the same period has also increased dozens of times compared with previous periods, and is still growing.
So they came to us.
Izu, needs this movie.
Not only for the Chinese market, but also for the whole world.
The high-level delegation directly connected with a big boss of the film guild, found DreamWorks, and found Lu Hao,
The negotiations went smoothly without any setbacks.
The Film Association strongly supports such cultural export projects and gives the green light to all procedures.
Since someone offered money to him, Lu Hao naturally would not be stingy and asked for a huge sum of money: 10 million US dollars, plus a share of the subsequent box office revenue.
After considering it for a few days, the other party agreed.
The movie may lose money at the box office, but it is a major benefit to the tourism market.
Adhering to the principle of maximizing profits, Lu Hao also published a book.
"The Dancing Girl of Izu", the novel of the same name as the movie.
Anyway, the text is ready, so just modify the script and find a publishing house to publish it.
The target market is of course still the island countries.
If it becomes popular in the future, maybe I can even sell the rights to adapt it into a TV series.
Since you are eating meat, you should eat it all. Wasting it is shameful. What's more, it is really comfortable to earn money like this.
The profits brought by this wave of operations, added up in bits and pieces, are at least 100 million.
It is basically equivalent to the domestic box office share.
So delicious!
In addition, there are also online broadcasting rights, and we are still cooperating with the previous three websites, charging each of them a symbolic fee of one million, as well as subsequent on-demand share.
At this point, the money-making frenzy of the two films has basically come to an end.
Sitting in the office, Lu Hao did some calculations.
The income from these two movies after profit sharing was over 300 million yuan.
According to the previous and system profit-sharing standards, each person will get half, and he will get 50% of the film's profits.
That is, 150 million.
It was a lot of money, but Lu Hao inexplicably felt like he was at a loss.
That familiar...working-class feeling.
Uncomfortable.
The system pays me 10 million yuan every month, but in just three months, I have contributed 150 million yuan to it.
So, Mr. Lu thought about doing something with the system.
"System, break up!"
…
"Unbind me, let's break up peacefully! I don't love you anymore, let's part ways amicably! We can still be friends in the future!"
…
"Although you gave me my first pot of gold, I didn't treat you unfairly! It's 150 million! A five-fold return! Take your money and leave me!"
…
System: This system has crashed.
[It is impossible to break up. It is impossible to break up in this life. 】
Lu Hao immediately took advantage of the situation and said, "Then increase my permissions."
It's like asking your boss for a raise. If you ask directly, he may not agree.
However, if you submit your resignation first, if your boss wants to keep you, he will most likely agree to a salary increase.
