Dong Mei thought, why did you only ask now!
At noon, she rushed to Monster Industries with several actors in the movie. Since the afternoon, every few minutes, Dong Mei would subconsciously look at the box office data on the monitor.
Ye Qing was really just asking casually.
Yang Baihe replied that there were more than 3.3 million tickets.
The ticket price for the new movie was set at 35 yuan, which meant that before the movie was released, there would already be about 110 million in box office revenue.
At present, this data was not considered excellent compared to some popular movies in the first day of pre-sale box office in the cinema.
Perhaps this movie with a total investment of more than 100 million would be able to pre-sell the box office close to the total investment before it was released. The situation looked very good.
However, it must be considered that virtual movies were different from traditional cinemas.
It did not have a huge customer turnover like traditional movies. At present, there were nearly 10 million users with virtual glasses. Even if everyone bought a movie ticket, it would only be 350 million in box office revenue.
After deducting the taxes and sharing the profits with Monster Industries, Qingyu Media could only say that it was not a loss at most.
Of course, this was what Dong Mei thought.
Ye Qing looked at the time. It was forty minutes to six o 'clock.
…
In Ye Qing's view, the success of this movie was inevitable, so there was no need to be too nervous and concerned.
However, on the Internet, the topic of this upcoming virtual movie had become a hot topic of public opinion.
This was the first virtual movie in the history of cinema, but the problem was that this movie could not be watched casually by buying a movie ticket. There was no trace of this movie in traditional cinemas. Even after searching through all the ticket booking software, there were no tickets for this movie.
Holographic glasses could be watched, but most people did not have holographic glasses in their hands.
"I have, the ticket price is 35 yuan, so cheap." In the midst of the discussion and complaints, someone quickly jumped out to attract hatred.
"I have it too, haha, you don't know. There are dozens of virtual cinemas in the virtual world. Each cinema is a strange shape that you can't imagine even if you empty your brains."
"I'm going to lie on the beach with my girlfriend and watch a movie, what about you?"
"I'm going to watch in the clouds."
"I'm going to watch a movie in the Galaxy Hall, sitting on a raft floating on the mysterious galaxy. By the way, I also want to hug my girlfriend. "
"Watch your mother's balls!"
The netizens who didn't have holographic glasses were about to explode from anger. Enough of these people showing off.
It's not that I don't have money. If I really can't afford it, I can pay by credit card and pay in installments. The problem is that I can't buy holographic glasses even if I have money.
"This movie is definitely not good."
"I heard that this movie was originally going to be released in theaters. The posters were even posted. But in the end, because the content was vulgar and misguided by the wrong values, it was taken down. "
"I think so. I saw the movie poster in the cinema last month."
"Is this for real? So explosive?"
The layman watched for the excitement, while the expert watched for the skill.
Everyone in the film and television industry knew why the movie was suddenly withdrawn from the physical theater. Even the foreign film and television workers from other countries who were nervously paying attention to the first virtual movie had heard about it.
Wasn't it because of this innovative model that only required a pair of glasses to watch movies anytime and anywhere? It would be a fatal blow to traditional cinema chains, and then it would be crazily resisted by these stakeholders.
The most advanced technological products would often be the first to appear on the competitor's table.
Even if holographic glasses were currently only sold in Hua Xia, at this moment, the server responsible for verifying the login information of the holographic glasses still counted the login information of more than tens of thousands of overseas users.
Not selling to overseas didn't stop these eyes from spying on the virtual world.
Excluding those domestic users who went abroad with holographic glasses, at least half of the users were film industry practitioners from various countries and related technicians from technology companies.
If they wanted to watch, Monster Industries would let them watch.
Twenty minutes before the movie was released, the atmosphere in the Virtual Film and Television Department became slightly tense. Even Ye Qing focused his attention on the box office statistics on the monitor.
More than 5.7 million movie tickets.
This data seemed to be somewhat unsatisfactory. A viewing rate of more than 90% was Ye Qing's expectation.
Then the number quickly became 6 million.
Fifteen minutes before the start of the movie, it became 7.5 million tickets …
"This … Do these people wait until the last moment before the movie is released to buy tickets?" In the last ten minutes, Dong Mei was stunned by the crazily rising box office numbers.
This kind of situation was impossible in traditional cinema chains. Usually, for popular movies, the audience would always buy tickets a day in advance. Basically, the next day's box office numbers could be accurately calculated at midnight.
"Because there's no need to line up to watch a movie in the virtual world." Ye Qing was also a little surprised that these users could wait.
"What a pity."
Dong Mei asked curiously, "What's a pity?"
"Let's assume that the purchase rate of holographic glasses users can reach 90% by midnight, then today's total box office will be a little more than 300 million." Ye Qing recalled the data that he had specifically checked before.
"I remember that in the history of Hua Xia movies, the single-day box office record was Battle Wolf 2, which reached 360 million in a single day."
"We're only tens of millions away from this data. What a pity."
If the first virtual movie in the history of movies could break the single-day box office record of Hua Xia on the day of its release, what a glorious milestone it would be.
They were only tens of millions away, but Dong Mei also understood that after tonight, their movie would no longer have any chance to break any record.
Because the current nearly ten million users would enter a period of silence after today's revelry.
After all, everyone has seen the movie, and few people will buy tickets to watch it a second time.
The new box office can only be placed on those new holographic glasses users.
During the one-month release period, the new users will inevitably be slow and stable. This data will also be reflected in the box office.
"Wow ~ 8 million." In the blink of an eye, Dong Mei found that the number on the screen had skyrocketed again.
Even if she knew that the final ticket sales data would not exceed 10 million, but this kind of numerical intuitive way, hundreds of thousands of tickets were sold every few minutes, and tens of millions of box office revenue was a thrilling experience. Dong Mei, who had created a box office record of one billion, was also trembling with her hands.
...
Five minutes before the movie was released, the rich second generation Xia Qianduo and Yang Xiling appeared in the virtual world.
Twenty-nine viewing maps were opened in the virtual world. Among them, the Galaxy Viewing Hall was the most anticipated. This viewing hall is located in the depths of quiet and ethereal space. After buying a ticket, you will get a small raft for free.
This small raft can ride up to two people. At the beginning of the movie, the raft will float on the slowly flowing mysterious galaxy, surrounded by the endless universe.
Although the universe is lonely, the mysterious galaxy is not lonely.
Because there will be many rafts drifting together, and there will be their own partners on the rafts.
Without a doubt, this viewing hall was prepared for young couples. If a single person were to sit on a raft, they would only suffer ten thousand critical hits from all directions.
