Chapter 291.
The movie “Ghost Husband” was released for a week, and the box office results came out, in the case of the Golden City Theater, there were four showings a day, and 1,800 people filled the seats.
Ticket prices ranged from ten to thirty cents.
Taking the middle number, let’s say 20 cents a ticket.
Since the last week, it is almost a full house, the daily box office income is about one thousand two hundred, in addition, the theater around the snacks and so on, although these are not counted as the kind of box office, but the turnover that is a big rise several times.
These theaters as well as the vendors near the theater is a great deal of money.
This is only a theater in Jincheng, Huatai hands and Jindu theater, the number of seats than the Jincheng slightly smaller, every day there are nearly a thousand dollars of box office revenue.
In one week, the earnings were nearly fifteen thousand dollars.
This is already a big explosion to come, according to the previous box office measurement of the movie, the movie released a week of box office will be three times to four times the total box office, but if the extension of the screening, it may be more, but the existing more.
That’s just the two theaters, Golden City and Jindu, the rest of the theaters don’t count.
Anyway, as long as the theaters that joined the Cinema Alliance, the daily box office for The Ghost Husband was at least six hundred dollars or more.
Cheng Mo and they signed a split agreement, forty-six percent, Cheng Mo to provide copies, screening time of two months, to ensure that the number of screenings, two months later, the copies are given to the other side, and then the theater screenings of the money earned, Loulan Films do not take a penny.
If not for this new model of cooperation, I’m afraid those theaters would not be willing to cooperate.
According to this calculation, the movie “Ghost Husband” now brings him a daily income of about seven thousand dollars.
One week, that was 50,000 yuan, which was pure income, but the movie Ghost Husband had invested more than 200,000 yuan before and after.
According to the current box office, there is no problem to recover all the investment in Shanghai alone, not counting the other cities.
And this is only the box office income, the movie’s hot and drive the original novel’s hot sales, the flower society took the opportunity to launch the version with the movie poster.
In short, this movie at least in the recovery of costs on the basis of double the money, and decided to cooperate with the Loulan Film and Television theaters without exception have made money.
This is just the beginning, this movie will also bring Cheng Mo a steady stream of income in the future, and Cheng Mo’s debut altered movie has been a huge success, what about his second work “The First Dream”, if it is also adapted into a movie, as long as the quality is over the top, making money is a certainty! But Loulan Film’s second movie, Cheng Mo obviously does not want to continue to adapt his novel “First Dream”, he intends to shoot “Sinister Soul”.
The starring role will naturally be Su Xuan.
This script he wrote a long time ago, but Su Xuan need to go to shoot Huatai’s movie, therefore, need to wait for her schedule, and there are also some actors also need casting, especially in the movie flying scenes, how to find a way to give him to do it, this is a new subject, need to director brainstorming.
Cheng Mo will “Weiya” concept thrown out, the rest, it is up to them to study, anyway, the casting of the crew, the preparation, at least two months, the start of shooting to the Spring Festival.
You can’t let your people be idle, otherwise, they will be lazy.
Moreover, it is also necessary to build the shooting base in advance ……
Cheng Mo decided to put the first part of the money earned are invested in the construction of their first shooting base, in Shanghai West Zhaofeng Park near the buy a large area of open space, to take a shoot, build a location shooting of the practice, spend four to five years, built in Asia and even the world’s largest film and television shooting base.
This is relying on his strength alone can not be done, so with the Shanghai filmmakers cooperation is inevitable.
The impact of Wang Zhaoming’s “pornographic telegram” continues to ferment, Chongqing has already announced that he will be expelled from the Kuomintang, and then major patriotic people and organizations have published to attack his “betrayal of the country to seek glory” behavior.
Public opinion is very lively. Su Moer had her period again.
She was in a bad mood, and when she got home at night, she almost hid under the covers and cried.
Cheng Mo is able to understand, they are actually very hard, but pregnancy and child birth this kind of thing is really quite rely on metaphysics.
Sometimes, you really can’t force it.
Cheng Mo a good burst of comfort, only to calm her emotions.
Chongqing side of the efficiency of the call back obviously slowed down a lot, Cheng Mo roughly guessed that Dai Yunong went to Hong Kong, the arrangement of Hanoi assassination.
Dai Yunong went to Hong Kong, I guess will meet with sister, sister this go also have more than a month, also should come back.
There are a lot of things waiting for her to come back to Shanghai to deal with.
“Boss, the SH City Bank reported that they received a considerable amount of fake money deposits.” That afternoon, Xu Qinghe knocked on the door and reported.
“Counterfeit banknotes, that’s not a Criminal Unit case, what’s it got to do with our Political Unit?”
“Colleagues from the Criminal Unit said that if this was a case of a few fake banknotes, there would be no need for our Special Affairs Unit, there might be an organization behind this that prints fake banknotes, so the Political Unit would have to take over.” Xu Qinghe said.
“What a way to shirk responsibility.” Cheng Mo knew that if the counterfeit banknote cases were found to be only sporadic, it was not a big problem, and a direct arrest would be made, but he was afraid that there were powerful forces behind the production of counterfeit banknotes, and some of them were even more so that the inspectorates did not dare to mess with them.
Cheng Mo is aware of the Japanese invaders have a large-scale production of counterfeit currency to disrupt the domestic market plan and implementation, and also the use of fake French currency to capture a large number of strategic materials, but with the depreciation of the French currency inflated, the Japanese invaders actually did not play a great effect of this strategy, only in the implementation of the beginning of the sweetness of a little bit, but they are in order to imitate the French currency, the investment is also very great.
The organization that makes counterfeit currency is the “Sugi” organization, is it possible that this “Sugi” organization has already come to Shanghai? “Let’s go and take a look first.”
Cheng Mo and Xu Qinghe drove to the Shanghai Savings Bank and entered the vice general manager’s office under the guidance of a lobby manager.
“Inspector Cheng, look, this is the fake fiat currency we received this morning, issued by the Central Bank.” That deputy general manager took out a stack of French currency from a box and handed it to Cheng Mo, saying.
Cheng Mo had learned the appraisal of coins when he was in Qingpu class, but when he touched this fake coin in his hand, he really didn’t see it.
He could only say that the imitator was too good, if this wasn’t sent to the bank, it was estimated that if it was put in circulation in the world, it would be really hard to be recognized.
“Where did the money come from?”
“An old customer of our bank brought it to deposit, said it was a cotton payment, we didn’t find it at first, after all, this part of the fake money was mixed in with the real money and deposited in, then one of our tellers found something wrong when he was organizing the money and preparing to send it into the vault, after identification, it was determined to be fake money!”
“How did he find out?”
“He originally worked at the Commercial Printing House, and was exposed to the printing of fiat currency, and realized that the paper of this fake currency was different from the real one, otherwise, we wouldn’t have been able to discover it.” The deputy general manager explained.
“Did you guys check all the incoming banknotes after discovering this batch of fake coins?” Cheng Mo asked again.
“This hasn’t been done.” The deputy general manager gave a nasty cry.
“Check it.”
