Chapter 810 Sweep! Occupy the first and second place in the Spring Festival period!The North American market is in the off-season, but "Ready Player One" still did not win the single-day box office championship.
Because on February 2, the Marvel movie "Black Panther" was released.
This movie, which was packed with buffs, grossed 7594 million US dollars on the first day!
After two days of release, the box office still reached 6000 million US dollars!
Show him the climax, buddy!
The lead actor is terminally ill and this is his last performance, which is also a great publicity point.
Starring a large number of Hey people, the movie is extremely politically correct, and it is also a Marvel superhero movie series, which has a large fan base.
The first-day box office of "Ready Player One" was 2670 million US dollars, which is already exceptionally good.
The focus of publicity is still on the Chinese market!
None of the leading actors can carry the box office.
But the movie’s reputation is indeed very good, with hundreds of Easter eggs and the appearance of various IP characters, which made North American audiences enjoy the movie!
The Hollywood Journal praised it: "Many media outlets say this is Chen's worst film, but even his worst film is still much better than other directors'!
As a popcorn movie, it is undoubtedly a success. It is nostalgic but not sensational; it is popular but not clichéd; it is sci-fi but extremely close to reality!
It has satisfied all the elements that the audience likes!"
After one day of screening, the reputation of the Spring Festival movies has basically been released!
"Do you understand the value of Tiga?"
"Chen An really understands it. I almost stood up when Tiga transformed. Hahahaha, I didn't expect to see Ultraman fighting monsters in his movie!"
"Nezha is also very handsome, the model is built perfectly, and the domineering look in his eyes!"
"He really understands the audience by integrating various super IPs. The production cost of more than 100 million US dollars must have been spent on this!"
"."
Various hot searches have already rushed to the hot search list.
#Chen An really understands it all#Tiga's transformation# and other terms dominated the hot search list!
Of course, he also did not forget to criticize "Monster Hunt 2" and "Journey to the West: The Women Kingdom".
The latter could almost be declared a flop on the first day. Putting aside the cost, the starting screening fee for the Spring Festival period would be tens of millions, and if it was slightly better it would cost hundreds of millions.
The box office on the first day was less than 100 million, a complete flop!
Zhao Liying, the so-called grassroots queen of strength, obviously does not have the ability to carry the box office, no matter how good her marketing is.
TV is different from movies. Movies really cost money!
No matter how high the ratings are, it's still TV, free. At most you can become a member and borrow it.
Movies are the true embodiment of commercial value, because going to the cinema to watch a movie costs real money, and one movie ticket is enough to buy you a membership for several months.
"Detective Chinatown 2" was not to be outdone. With the biggest promotion from a certain audio platform, it directly took the second place and squeezed out "Monster Hunt 2".
The reputation is also far superior to the other.
As for "Operation Red Sea", it is awesome, but it takes time to turn the tables.
The seven-day period of the Spring Festival is the biggest window, so take advantage of it first!
It was only after this that it began to exert its power.
"What does Ren Zhonglun mean?!"
"He quietly cut the film schedules of several major primary markets in the Delta. Didn't he invest in it himself?!"
Several major producers of "Monster Hunt 2" were cursing angrily!
In their expectations, as a successful series, a first-day box office of 400 million would be low, but in the end it was less than 300 million.
The first and second places were both occupied by Lightyear Pictures.
Occupying more than 50% of the market, one is million and the other is million!
The person from China Film Studio drank his tea silently without saying anything.
The senior executives of the film company were silent during the morning meeting. Director La looked unhappy, but he didn't say anything.
"Chen An did it on purpose. What does he mean? Having Weibo and Tik Tok is a big deal! He is in the same circle but he wants to tear each other apart!"
"Since the early 2000s, they have been targeting our Hong Kong projects. This is intentional!"
Some people excitedly put labels on Chen An!
Mr. Fu of China Film Group spoke up: "Don't say anything careless. China Film Group will not participate in any random accusations. Now let's think about how to turn the tables."
"How can we turn the tables? He is relying on his Internet business to do whatever he wants!" "This matter is not over yet, we will definitely find the person who is responsible!"
"."
Mr. Fu was drinking tea and didn't want to say anything more. He didn't care that the investment in "Ready Player One" was bigger in China Film Group and there was also the global market.
But then again, he is also an Internet tycoon, that's amazing.
If you have the ability, why don’t you just make one?
"Leader, you know me. It's all a matter of reputation. Am I that kind of person?"
Chen An, who was invited to the Film Bureau for tea, cried out that he was wronged!
"Everyone has seen that our company's two works are completely aimed at the Spring Festival!"
"Everyone likes to watch something happy during the holidays. I risked my life and filmed something that fans would like to watch. Is it easy for me? And I still get accused!"
"I admit that I did go too far before, but they were the ones who went too far first. Do you think what I said is reasonable?"
"Using funds from the mainland to support the people in Hong Kong!"
Chen An had a look of great wishfulness on his face. I'm so miserable. I didn't care about my reputation for the sake of box office. I made "Ready Player One" and now I have to commit this sin!
"Alright, alright, stop howling, be more restrained, I'm not resting during the New Year, but you're the first one to start crying.
"I'm suffering. I'm always being accused of something. It's not the first time or the second time. Last time they came to you crying, I suffered a loss. Now they're doing it again. Who can stand this?"
The old director looked at Chen An, who was crying and sobbing, and looked as if he couldn't bear to watch it.
What do you mean by crying? Can you use a better word? Although it is true.
Chen An refused to give up: "Old leader, you know me well. Over the years, I, Chen An, always listen to the first word given by my superiors."
"I didn't win the Best Director Oscar that year, and I ignored their requests to obtain American citizenship. I only have my country in my heart, but I was still being labeled by them!"
"."
Everyone likes to bring up old issues.
The old director rubbed his head and waved his hand, saying, "Alright, alright, stop talking. I know what you mean. I have seen it all these years. Director Tong also said that you are awesome."
"We still have to put the overall situation first. Besides, we should be more cautious. It's a headache for them to come to us and complain every day."
If he is not careful in doing things, it will be difficult for him to do them.
"Stop it, and let bygones be bygones."
"I never did it, old leader, please don't wrongly accuse me!"
Chen An looked as if he didn't understand what you were saying.
The old director waved his hands impatiently and said, "Get lost, I've said everything I need to say, don't let me call you again!"
"Okay, okay!" Chen An smiled, bowed, said a few nice words and slipped away.
After leaving the Film Bureau, he went to the Optoelectronics Bureau and repeated the same trick.
“Old leader, you know me well.”
"."
After a day of running around, it’s finally over.
"Damn, you are a bunch of wimps. You have no other tricks, right?" Chen An drank some water while sitting in the car, and his voice became hoarse.
He was asked to fly to Beijing in a hurry, which delayed the publicity for a while.
But it's time to stop. What needs to be done has been done, and public opinion has also fermented.
After the film was released, I asked some internet trolls to send out my short essay.
The rating on Douban has already reached points.
The labels given to movies on the Internet have basically all been labeled as bad movies.
"Ready Player One" and "Detective Chinatown 2" firmly occupy the top spot.
"Operation Red Sea" may have made a great effort, but these two movies can take up all the market share during the seven-day Spring Festival period!
