    "Director Lin, congratulations on the birth of your first one-billion-directed movie, and you have officially entered the billion-dollar director club from now on. Congratulations!"

    After Yuan Hua's road show ended, the cumulative box office of "The Mekong" also officially exceeded the one billion mark.

    Therefore, Bona boss held a small celebration party in winter. On the one hand, it was to continue to promote the film, and on the other hand, it was also a small gathering before the crew members parted ways.

    ? After all, if the movie had a grand celebration banquet after it was released, it might take a long time.

    Mainly, the subject matter of this movie, coupled with its excellent box office performance, will definitely get the extension key, and the release will have to be postponed for at least one month.  In other words, the film may not be officially released until the end of November at the earliest.

    The celebration banquet will have to wait until the beginning of December this year, and there are almost two months left, which is a bit too late!  So do a simple deal first.

    "The Mekong River" is the fifth domestically produced film to exceed one billion yuan so far this year. The first four films are "The Mermaid", "Journey to the West: Three Fighting Bones" and "The Wind and Cloud 3" in the Spring Festival file, and the summer file on August 5.  "Tomb Raiders Notes" released on the 1st.

    If Yuan Hua remembers correctly, it seems that this year, there were only six domestically produced films in the mainland that broke the box office of one billion, and then there were four imported films such as "Zootopia", "US Team 3", "Warcraft" and "Kung Fu Panda 3".  In 2016, a total of 10 movies had a box office of over one billion.

    Of course, the only domestically produced film with a quota of more than one billion yuan is "The Great Wall", which is tentatively scheduled to be released on December 16 during the Lunar New Year.

    Lin Chaoxian also happily bumped into Yuan Hua, drank it all down, and then kindly put his arm on Yuan Hua's shoulder and said:

    "Same joy, same joy, mainly depends on you guys! If I remember correctly, this should be your fourth billion-dollar movie! The younger generation is awesome, and it is indeed a box office guarantee!"

    Yuan Hua said modestly: "I can't afford it. I basically follow everyone else. The box office guarantee is a bit exaggerated!"

    Although Lin Chaoxian is more confident in his director level and the quality of the finished film, he will not easily obliterate Yuan Hua's credit.

    Take the movie "The Mekong River" as an example. If Yuan Hua hadn't played the leading role, it would be absolutely impossible to beat "Grand Trail" and "Passing Through Your World" to take the number one single-day box office on the first day, and fame would be impossible.  spread so quickly

    After all, it is a police film with a serious theme and the main theme. Before word-of-mouth has spread and formed a climate, is it possible to expect how high the box office will be when it opens?

    Besides, if it weren't for Yuan Hua, how could this film get 26% of the film schedule under such fierce competition?  Why does the filming exceed "Passing Through Your World"?  Is it true that Deng Chao can't lift a knife anymore?

    In fact, Lin Chaoxian is still very self-aware. In his previous life, the first day of this movie was 20.4%, and the opening score was only 38 million, which was far behind the two rivals.

    However, in the middle and late stages, with the spread of word-of-mouth, relying entirely on peer support, it gradually got out of the circle, and embarked on a road to the top with a counterattack and double kill.

    From the perspective of God, everyone thinks that a movie with such a good reputation must have a high attendance rate from the beginning!  Actually otherwise, the attendance rate of "The Mekong River" in the early stage of its release was quite hip

    In the previous life, on September 30, the premiere day of "The Mekong River", its attendance rate ranked second to last among the four popular movies with only 21.5%, and the lowest was of course "Grand Trail" at 16.4%.

    The remaining "Passing Through Your World" and "Ace and Ace" both had an attendance rate of over 28%.

    Because the attendance rate on the first day was too low, the theaters even lowered the schedule of "The Mekong River". The second and third day's schedules were only 17.2% and 18.8%.  With the help of word of mouth, it counterattacked

    To say that this movie is still a bit lucky, it must have been a success in choosing the National Day file to release, but this year its competitors have surprisingly stretched their hips, and there is really no one who can beat it.

    In addition to the reputation of the two brothers in "Grand Trail", there is one "Ace Funny Ace" that has not been mentioned much, and its Douban score is only 3.3.

    Therefore, it is equivalent to saying that three of these four new films failed, and the only one that can be watched among the hit films is "The Mekong River", so the audience basically has no choice!

    As long as the opponents have a little bit of competition, it is very likely that the box office of "The Mekong River" may not break one billion. After all, it is indeed not very popular in the early stages, regardless of theaters or audiences.

    What is this called?  This is called - a good fight is not as good as a good row.

    "Brother Yuan Hua, congratulations on another movie that sells well. Among the stars of the younger generation, you are the most powerful at the box office!"

    Yuan Hua immediately complimented:"Boss Yu praises me too much! I would like to toast you, congratulations to Boss Yu for making another good deal."

    Actually, this movie was a big hit, and the biggest winner was not Yuan Hua or Lin Chaoxian, but the middle-aged man with a Chinese face in front of him.

    "Operation Mekong" is completely produced and announced by Bona. It is said that Bona's investment share is close to 90%, basically equivalent to the sole investor.

    Therefore, most of the film studio's share of the account this time fell into Bona's pocket. In the previous life, the film studio's share of the account was 458 million, of which about 350 million went directly into Bona's pocket.

    As the founder and chairman of Bona, since Bona was delisted from Nasdaq and privatized, it is said that Yu Dong¡¯s shareholding in the company has increased slightly to 28%, and he is the largest controlling shareholder.  The economic benefits are also the greatest

    Yu Dong and Yuan Hua had a drink together, and suddenly sighed faintly and said:

    "It's a pity that Bona has delisted, otherwise the stock price will definitely rise sharply now"

    Yuan Hua reassured casually: "It's okay, isn't this already back? In the future, the sea and the sky will be brighter, and you can let the president show his strength!"

    Yu Dong smiled and raised his glass: "Haha, then I will lend you a good word!"

    Although Yuan Hua clinked glasses with him with a smile, he felt sorry for him in his heart. If you say that Yu Dong's luck is too bad!

    First, Bona was dissatisfied with the US stock market, and finally delisted sadly in April this year, started the privatization process, and then prepared to return to China to hit the A-share market

    Originally, after the privatization, Bona was proud of the spring breeze. Basically, most of the films produced during this period were relatively successful, especially "Operation Mekong", "Operation Red Sea", "Heroes of Fire", "Wu Shuang", "Captain of China" and other films.  Double income.

    But it happened that the rush to A was full of twists and turns, each time it was close to success, and then suddenly something went wrong. This delay lasted for a full five years. Until the eve of Yuan Hua's crossing, Bona still failed to log in to A shares.

    This is not the worst thing, the worst thing is that due to the impact of the epidemic, Bona has missed the best time for IPO.

    Even if you can land in A-shares in the future, the stock price has already been greatly reduced. After all, it is now and then!

    In fact, a few months ago, when Bona started privatization, Yu Dong also contacted Yuan Hua, saying that he could buy some shares at a low price.

    However, Yuan Hua declined after thinking about it. First, the shares are too small, and one or two points are useless at all;

    After drinking for three rounds, Yu Dong finally got down to business:

    "Brother, in fact, Bona is preparing for another film project. The original crew of "The Mekong" will still be used. Director Lin will continue to direct. It will tell the story of the evacuation of overseas Chinese from North Africa. I wonder if you are interested?"

    Finally it came, Yuan Hua was overjoyed, obviously, this should be "Operation Red Sea"!

    Although he really wanted to agree directly, he still had to go through the process that should be followed to avoid arousing suspicion, so Yuan Hua could only pretend to be nonchalant and say:

    "Well, why don't you send me the script for a look, and my agent will follow up and keep in touch later, would you like it?"

    Of course Yu Dong knew that this matter could not be done overnight, so he said straightforwardly:

    "Okay, I just want to say hello to you first, we can talk about the rest! ?
