Levin is very powerful, and he also thinks that An Ran will not resist. After all, he is just a Xiazhou native, and apart from Lucas, he doesn’t have much influence here.

An Ran didn't say anything. Until the movie was offline, he never expressed his dissatisfaction to anyone.

The final box office of "The Iron Man" settled at 4.5, which was nearly 100 million less than his expected 540 million.

After Lucas found out, he comforted An Ran, "Actually, you don't have to be too angry. Our movie made 100 million. We didn't lose money, right?"

He knew that An Ran was not willing to suffer losses and would definitely find a way to get this thing back.

But Diss is too huge and cannot be fought against.

Lucas continued: "Look at the final box office of "Superman" of 560 million, which is still far from recouping the original investment. It seems that they can only put their hope in other markets."

For Dees, this kind of performance is unacceptable.

Losing money is actually a small matter, but it is a big blow to morale.

Everyone knows that comic book movies are a big piece of cake, especially when there is a lack of scripts. If a new battlefield can be opened up, the future profits can be imagined.

However, the hope that "Superman" carries makes people very unhappy.

You can either explode and start the DA story line directly.

Either I will suffer a huge loss and I will give up on this idea.

But the results are neither good nor bad, which makes people very confused and unhappy.

Next we have to look at the performance of Xiazhou, the second largest vote bank.

The release date of "Superman" in Xiazhou is May 28, which is a full month later than here.

However, maintaining capital is not a problem because the difference is not much.

With the advantage of the second largest ticket warehouse, it is very possible for everyone to make a small profit.

For this reason, Levine went to Xiazhou in person to negotiate and fight for a better film schedule for his movie.

On May 28, "Superman" and "Iron Man" were released simultaneously in Xiazhou.

And the film schedule is similar.

Although the film schedule of "Superman" is slightly more than that of "The Iron Man", the number of screenings is limited.

"Superman" accounted for 38% of the film schedules, while "The Iron Man" scored 35% of the film schedules.

Levine is very confident in the Xiazhou market.

Because Xiazhou is not like Xizhou, which has a hundred years of film development.

Xiazhou is an emerging market. Although the box office has grown very rapidly in recent years, there are still many people who have never been to a cinema.

As long as the special effects are good and the plot is good, it doesn't really matter.

The Disney Company has several films that did not do well at the box office when it was in Xizhou, but after coming to Xiazhou, the box office was a hit.

Now, in order to please the Xiazhou audience, everyone will intentionally or unintentionally add some scenes of Xiazhou people to please the Xiazhou audience.

This "Super Man" has been criticized in Xizhou for being too preachy and not having good character development.

But this is not a problem in Xiazhou. The hour-long special effects fight that follows is a good gimmick to attract the audience.

After all, the level of appreciation of the audience here is not as good as that of Xizhou.

Unexpectedly, Levine was hit in the head on the first day.

"Iron Man" took in a box office of 120 million with a slightly lower schedule, but "Superman" only took in 80 million.

Are the two sides played upside down?

They have always been in the leading position in Xizhou. Unexpectedly, they were slapped on the first day in Xiazhou.

The Xiazhou audience that he looked down on in the past seemed not to buy into this movie.

After the first day, the online comments on the blockbuster were extremely disgusting, especially for the preaching in it.

"I paid to watch the movie, not to take classes. If we just talk about taking classes, my political teacher is much better than Superman."

"Oh my god, I really regret watching this movie. It was an hour of preaching and an hour of beatings all over the place. My head almost swelled from watching it."

"Haha, it's Teacher An's work. The signature characters are the signature characters. "The Iron Man" is good-looking, with great plot and story!"

"The products produced by Enron must be high-quality, whether they are commercial blockbusters or low-budget art films, they all have their own characteristics and will never fall into the trap of clichés."

"Entertainment blockbusters are entertainment movies, they are meant to make people relax. Teacher An is very clear about this..."

The reputation of the two movies on the Internet is almost at two extremes.

Because of the quality of the movie itself and the blessing of Enron's halo, almost no one can say anything bad about "The Iron Man".

Although there are some literary youths on Huaban.com who pretend to be cool and say some mean things, it is similar to the fact that the films made by Director Xia Zhou are not as deep as those made by Director Xi Zhou.

But most people still gave high recognition to Enron's first commercial blockbuster.

But "Superman" is not treated so well.

Everyone’s comments about the sermons in it are simply negative, and not many people say anything good about it.

Even the literary youth found it too preachy, followed by a beating, and the whole story was in a chaotic rhythm.

With the support of everyone's comments, the gap in the box office became even wider the next day.

The box office of "The Iron Man" reached 140 million, while "Superman" dropped sharply to only 50 million.

At the same time, due to the huge gap in box office, major movie theaters began to slash the film schedule of "Superman".

The film schedule has been cut from 38% all the way to 21%.

However, due to the excellent box office performance of "The Iron Man", the film schedule has increased to 43%.

In fact, this is considered an advantage for "Superman". There were no other blockbusters released during the same period, and the few movies released all received mediocre reviews. The better ones only had a daily box office of tens of millions, and the worse ones only had a few million.

Neither poses a threat to these two movies.

Otherwise, based on this box office alone, it would be very good to give him a film scheduling rate of more than ten points.

When Levin in Xizhou saw this situation, his eyes almost popped out. Are all the people in Xiazhou so sophisticated now?

And the killings in this series are too brutal.

If this continues, the film schedule rate may be reduced to less than 10% in a few days, and the film will be even more hopeless.

Levin felt that he could not sit still and wait for death, so he got on a plane and went straight to Xiazhou that day.

He wants to convince the big bosses of the theater chain to improve their film schedule.

With this achievement, if we can increase the film schedule by five or six points, then it will not be a problem to increase our income by tens of millions every day.

Haolai has to make a fortune in Xiazhou, otherwise it would be too unreasonable.

From Xizhou to Xiazhou, it was already dark when we got to the airport.

Levin checked into the hotel he had booked, turned on his laptop, and began to analyze the information of major theaters in Xiazhou.

Xiazhou cinemas are popping up like mushrooms after a rain these days.

Moreover, the rise of local movies is quite strong. Xizhou movies, which were very popular in the past few years, are no longer able to compete with Xiazhou local movies.

Therefore, he also has to put away his body, communicate with the other party, and compete for more films.

After all, making money is the most important thing.

In the end, Levine chose Tianmu Cinema, with which he has always had a pleasant cooperation...
Chapter completed!
