Chapter 323: Finalized

"The Day After Tomorrow" set a new box office record in the first week of the world's single film release, which can be described as menacing, and it also made everyone feel the smoke of the upcoming summer file.

But to be honest, although the box office of "The Day After Tomorrow" in the mainland of 14 million in the first week is already a high box office, it can still only rank third in the year.

So far, the box office record in the first week of the year in 2004 is 34.57 million yuan for "District 9", which is less than half of "The Day After Tomorrow".

And the 34.57 million yuan of "District 9" is not the highest first-week box office record in the history of mainland Chinese films.

At present, the highest first-week box office record in the history of Chinese mainland films is 53 million yuan created by the national teacher "Hero" in 2002!

This record has been held for more than 1 year.

The previous record was 48 million yuan created by "Titanic" in 1998!

The record for the highest box office in the first week of the big boat lasted for 4 years before it was broken by the national teacher's "Hero".

But even so, 6 years have passed, and "Titanic" still maintains the box office records of 18 million yuan on the first day and a total box office of 360 million yuan.

The king of the world is really not just a casual talk, these records are like an insurmountable mountain for the Chinese people, and everyone is not able to breathe.

As for the box office record of 53 million yuan in the first week of "Hero", I am afraid that it may not be able to keep it this year.

The most promising thing to break this record is the national teacher's own "Ambush on All Sides"!

In addition, Xing Ye's "Kung Fu", Chen Hao's "The Man with No Surname", Feng Dacang's "No Thieves in the World" and a number of Hollywood blockbusters are all strong candidates, but they are not as good as "Ambush on All Sides".

At the same time, the editing of "The Man Without a Name" is also nearing the end, and Chen Hao has roughly cut two versions.

However, at present, there are still some special effects production that has not been completed, and after the special effects part is also sent, Chen Hao can really complete all the post-production.

Time passed in a hurry, and soon it was June, and the atmosphere of the summer file became more and more intense.

The film market has also released a number of new films, and the island films "Twilight Qingbingwei", "Mysterious Loyalty", and "Candlelight" performed too poorly at the box office, and they were completely cannon fodder.

In addition, even "Beautiful Magic City" starring Feng Yuanzheng and Wang Zuxian, as well as the well-known "Sanmao Saves the Orphan", also did not make any splashes.

The mainland film market is completely dominant, but this is also expected by everyone.

Now the box office of "The Day After Tomorrow" has exceeded 75 million yuan in the mainland, but in terms of its stamina, it is estimated to be at the same level as "Lord of the Rings 3".

It is estimated that it will not exceed "The Lord of the Rings 3", and the box office should be around 80 million yuan.

Soon, the situation of "The Day After Tomorrow" dominating the box office list will be rewritten, and another Hollywood epic blockbuster "Troy" has officially landed in mainland theaters.

The movie "Troy", with an investment of up to $175 million, and two handsome guys Brad Pitt and the Elf Prince, is an epic masterpiece and can be described as ambitious.

But it's a pity that the film failed in North America, and the box office performance was not good, with only $133 million in the account, and Warner Bros. is obviously going to lose money this time!

But even so, as a Hollywood blockbuster, "Troy" is still very attractive to mainland audiences with its grand war scenes, and the box office performance is also worth looking forward to.

At the same time, the promotion of "Ambush on All Sides", which will officially land in mainland theaters on July 16, is in full swing.

In addition to taking Liu Dehua, Jincheng Wu and the international chapter on a nationwide tour.

Zhang Weiping, the big mouth, also directly sent a business plan to the merchants and the media, which detailed the plot, stills, cast and crew of "Ambush on All Sides" and other details.

Finally, there is also the investment advertisement for the grand premiere of "Ambush on All Sides".

All kinds of titles, patch ads, sponsorships, etc. are clearly priced, and according to the planning, "Ambush on All Sides" will hold a grander premiere than "Hero".

It's just that the cost of the premiere will be paid for by the sponsor at that time.

However, even though the promotion of "Ambush on All Sides" is more complex and vast than that of "Hero", the industry generally predicts that the box office of "Ambush on All Sides" will be far inferior to "Hero".

But the big-mouthed Zhang Weiping didn't care, and shouted that the goal of "Ambush on All Sides" was to surpass "Hero"!

Not only that, Zhang Weiping also said that "Ambush on All Sides" will participate in an international film festival, and it is likely to be the top three in Europe!

This made the media and reporters excited, after all, the national teacher is also a frequent visitor to the three major European ones.

However, on second thought, "Ambush on All Sides" is a commercial film, and it is unlikely to win awards, so it is estimated that it is mainly to sell films.

But no matter what, with Zhang Weiping's big mouth and the influence of the national teacher in the mainland film industry, the news that "Ambush on All Sides" will be released is known throughout the country.

And just when "Ambush on All Sides" attracted the attention of countless media and fans, Haotian Film and Television suddenly announced that "The Man Without a Name" is scheduled for August 6!

This is the schedule set by Chen Hao after discussing with Haotian Cinema Line and Poly Burner.

"The Man Without a Name" will be able to complete all post-production by the end of June, although fans have long known about Chen Hao's new film, but publicity must still be done.

Therefore, it is impossible for "The Man Without a Name" to be released in July, and it must be left for at least a month for promotion.

Moreover, the National Teacher's "Ambush on All Sides" will be released on July 16, and no one dares to compete with "The National Teacher" at this time.

After all, "Hero" is too terrifying, and "Ambush on All Sides", which takes advantage of the situation, will definitely beat one other film.

Therefore, "The Man Without a Name" can only be postponed, and in September, there are "Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban" and Cheng Long's "New Police Story", which is a bit crowded.

After that, the summer season is over, and the rest is only in August!

In August, the mainland film market ushered in only the animated film "Blame Me Shrek 2".

The film has exceeded $440 million at the box office in North America, which can basically be said to be the top two at the annual box office, and it is likely to be the champion of the year.

If you only look at the North American box office, it is indeed very scary.

But the good thing is that "Shrek 2" is an animated movie, and the box office of animated films in the mainland is very average.

Take 2002's "Shrek 1" as an example, what was its box office in the mainland at that time?

Only 6.75 million RMB!

Moreover, animated films have always been unpopular in the mainland, and the current highest animated film was 35.53 million yuan for "Finding Nemo" last year.

Therefore, in the mainland film market, "Shrek" is not so invincible.

On August 6, "Ambush on All Sides" has been released for the 4th week, avoiding its edge.

"Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban" will be released on September 10, and there is exactly one month between them.

Therefore, the biggest competitor of "The Man Without a Name" is "Shrek 2"!
