"Painted Skin 2", which has been released for two weeks and has received increasingly worse reviews, has fallen to second place, engaging in a love-hate relationship with "Search", which ranks third.
"Fame and Fame" maintained a stable screening rate of more than 30% per day, ranking first for several consecutive days and firmly dominating the film market this week.
On July 12, the box office of "Famous" exceeded 100 million yuan, and on July 14, the box office of "Famous" exceeded 200 million yuan.
In the end, the first week box office statistics of "Fame and Fame" finally grossed 253 million yuan, and successfully entered the top ten of the annual rankings.
However, not many people pay attention to this list. There are so many movies from August to October, not to mention the Lunar New Year holiday.
The ranking of the year depends not only on the performance of "Famous", but also on the ranking of other movies.
Currently, "To Be Famous" has a good momentum, but "The Four" and "The Secret of Wudang" are about to be released, which is bound to have a certain impact on the box office.
The director of "The Four" is Chen Jiashang, who also directed the first part of "Painted Skin", which is also a well-known martial arts IP.
The lineup includes the popular young actor Deng Chao, the popular actress Liu Tianxian, and Nazha, Zheng Zhongji, Wu Moubo and others who are also not ordinary small-time stars.
So judging from the cards on the surface, this movie is actually capable of competing with movies like "Painted Skin 2", "Search", and "Fame and Fortune".
Finally, due to the negotiations between Wei Yang and Guangguang, "The Four" was chosen to be released in the second half of the month, which can be regarded as the last big bomb in July.
"The Secret Code of Heaven and Earth of Wudang" is a bit shabby in comparison, but the lead actor Zhao Wenzhuo is currently very popular because of the "Zhao Zhen Battle", and Da Mimi is also very popular.
She starred in the currently hit movie "Painted Skin 2". No matter how much credit she has contributed, it cannot be ignored.
Therefore, this movie may be far inferior to "The Four", but before it is released, everyone should still pay attention to it. Who knows if it will be a new dark horse.
It is conceivable that the second week and subsequent box office performance of "Fame and Fame" will depend on the performance of these two films.
However, no matter how the performance is later, with the actual box office of 253 million, according to the 38% sharing ratio, the film company can get more than 93 million.
The actual filming cost of "Famous" was only about 30 million yuan, and even including publicity and promotion, it was only 50 million yuan.
Even if this movie fails at the box office, the film company has almost doubled its profit, not to mention that in addition to the box office, there are also many other revenues such as copyright, network, advertising, and offline.
Therefore, it is just an appetizer at the moment, and there will be a huge profit in the future. When investors from all parties counted the accounts, they were all smiling, except Boss Wei who was a little "disdainful".
"So even if the box office reaches 500 million, I will only earn a few thousand. It's just a small goal at best. There's not much profit, right?"
Wei Yang did the math himself and found that the profit margin was not as good as that he earned from filming TV series. However, having said that, the smile on his face never stopped.
If you ask around the entire film industry, you will find out how many movies can make money and have such lucrative returns.
There is a line in "To Be Famous", which is a joke, but it also explains the current situation in the film industry - nine out of ten projects fail, which is normal for commercial investment.
This movie did not lose money, it made a profit, even several times the profit. Just based on this, Wei Yang is a popular figure among people.
Besides, TV series are TV series, and movies are movies! Right now, the main thing is to accumulate fame. When the market is prosperous, the total box office will easily reach tens of billions, which is not a small amount at all.
The outside world also began to conduct extensive research on the profits of "Become Famous", trying to figure out how much Boss Wei had made.
Money is an eternal topic! The outside world's attention to how much money Wei Yang, a young self-made billionaire, makes is no less than the gossip about which female star he is dating, and sometimes even more so.
After all, Wei Yang is a "veteran in the world of women", and these are all seemingly true scandals. It's nothing more than a change of characters, and everyone is no longer interested in them.
Unless there is some breakthrough or a heavyweight, it can cause widespread discussion beyond the circle.
And he is not the only celebrity involved in scandals. No matter who you are, you will be interested, but making money is different.
Every star falls in love, but there are not many stars who make money as crazily as Wei Yang.
Moreover, his own experience of making a fortune is extremely legendary. He started from scratch, is young and handsome, and most of the projects he operates are film and television projects that are well-known to many people.
With so many gimmicks and attractions, it is natural that it will attract everyone's attention, and even give people a sense of accomplishment and involvement like some wealthy people in the training system.
It is no exaggeration to say that some people who have a strong sense of involvement can be called spiritual shareholders of Blue Whale.
They would even curse at Wei Yang and other senior executives, expressing their disapproval of Wei Yang and other high-level executives, as if they had lost money because of some decisions made by Blue Whale Company or the low returns on some projects.
Of course, most of them are just spectators.
There was no particular purpose, I just wanted to know how much money Wei Yang made, just like many people are curious about how much their neighbors and elementary school classmates earn every month.
However, after Wei Yang became rich, he rarely announced his wealth to the public, and the outside world could only make rough estimates, which were not necessarily accurate and were sometimes refuted.
But we don’t know the contract for TV series, so we can’t calculate the exact amount, but the box office data for movies is clearly here.
The profit sharing ratio of a movie is relatively fixed, with the producer getting 38%. Depending on the specific circumstances, it may be more or less, but it's generally the same.
This makes the calculation very simple!
If the box office is 100 million, Wei Yang will get 38 million, 200 million will be 76 million, and 300 million will be 114 million. Add other income, it will be no less.
So, when Wei Yang was invited to attend the premiere ceremony of "The Four".
The box office of "Famous" has exceeded 300 million yuan, and Boss Wei is also believed to have made a small profit and was publicly asked by reporters about his funding arrangements.
“…”
Wei Yang was somewhat speechless, but the eyes of the audience were all more passionate than each other, regardless of gender.
That’s one hundred million!
If you win 5 million in lottery in one day, considering the tax, it will take more than a month to collect the whole amount.
This is such a blessing. It would not be enough to build a fire station next to the ancestral tomb. At least two reservoirs are needed...
"Well, I have to explain that this profit is not mine alone. We have many investors and backers, and we only get a portion of it."
"Moreover, this part belongs to Blue Whale Company's assets, which I cannot use at will."

However, these words obviously could not fool the reporters. But now it was not his home court, so he did not have to face the reporters all the time. After answering them a few words, someone naturally came to help him out.
When he came to the stage, Wei Yang sighed, and the boss Wang from Guangxian who came to entertain him teased him.
“Aren’t you happy making money?”
"A big tree attracts the wind."
Wei Yang doesn't like to show off his wealth, as that would mean trouble, but he has a special status and too many people are watching him, so it's not something he can hide if he wants to.
"Brother Wang, we are going to organize a charity event later. Is your company interested?"
Boss Wang was stunned, then he understood what was going on. He knew that wealth should not be shown to the public, but if he couldn't hide it, he would spend it to avoid disaster.
Doing charity is a relatively cost-effective method, and for a cultural and entertainment company like theirs, the effect is quite significant and there are many benefits.
This is not the first time Wei Yang has done charity.
Apart from the small-scale charity work in the early years when he was not yet famous or had just become popular, he started doing charity work on a formal and large scale after 2010.
It mainly focuses on education and medical care, and the beneficiaries are poor children in mountainous areas, patients with financial difficulties, and some elderly, weak and disabled people.
Last year, at the beginning of 2011, Wei Yang, in the name of himself and Blue Whale, together with relevant units in Shanghai and some enthusiastic companies and individuals, initiated the establishment of a special charity organization, the Sunflower Public Welfare Charity Association.
Wei Yang himself serves as honorary chairman and is the largest funder of the entire charity.
In less than two years, Sunflower Charity has helped a large number of children in mountainous areas and poor patients.
A total of more than 30 million yuan in funds and materials have been invested, including the establishment of two Hope Primary Schools named "Sunflowers" and the funding of corresponding medical equipment for two poor county hospitals.
At the same time, the organization has also carried out many charity activities and provided a lot of non-economic assistance.
Apart from anything else, with Wei Yang's influence, he can bring a lot of attention to these children and patients.
And this attention can often be transformed into some support and a steady stream of funding, so this is why calling on public figures to do charity and the benefits of their influence may even be more effective than actual financial help.
After all, if you donate 100,000 yuan, it can only pay for medical expenses, and it may not necessarily cure the patient.
And if Wei Yang exerts his influence, maybe he can attract the attention of authoritative experts and large hospitals, and people will come for treatment for various purposes. Maybe the patients can be saved, and the medical expenses can be reduced, which is impossible to achieve by donating money.
It’s a pity that Wei Yang is too busy and it’s impossible for him to do charity every day. Besides, he is too rich and famous, so it’s easy for him to be criticized for just shouting but not spending any money.
So for Wei Yang, the simplest and most worry-free way is to donate money.
Eighteen million a year is nothing to him, but he can do a lot and get many benefits in return.
Therefore, Wei Yang is not opposed to doing charity, and he is becoming more and more adept at it. Now he even does charity whenever he shows off his wealth, occupying the moral high ground without waiting for others to notice.
I donate eight figures a year, call for and participate in at least a dozen charity events, help and rescue countless poor children and patients, and have done a lot of good deeds.
In ancient times, people would call Wei a great good man, and after his death he might even be given the title of City God or Land God.
Who do you think you are? How much money you donated, how many people you saved, what charity you participated in, and you dare to complain to me?
When you encounter moral blackmail, the best way is to give them back in their own way.
If you happen to be standing on the moral high ground, then you will criticize God if God stands in your way, and criticize Buddha if Buddha stands in your way...
