Chapter 281 2004 Box Office Champion?
"The next week's 21.3 million yuan, "District 9" achieved two consecutive weekly box office rankings!" --- Sohu Entertainment reported
"The cumulative box office of "District 9" is 55.87 million yuan, surpassing last year's annual box office champion "Mobile Phone" in two weeks!" --- Wangyi Entertainment
"The box office in two weeks exceeded 55 million, and the box office of "District 9" will exceed 100 million?" --- New Wolf Entertainment
......
In the new week, the mainland film market has not been able to compete with the release of films that can compete with "District 9", and the word-of-mouth and film schedule are superior.
The box office of "District 9" fell by 38.38% in the second week, and the decline was relatively well controlled, and there was no suspense to achieve two consecutive championships in the weekly box office rankings!
The cumulative box office of "District 9" in two weeks has also reached 55.87 million yuan, which has exceeded the 53 million of the 2003 mainland annual box office champion "Mobile Phone"!
The box office of "District 9" exceeded the total box office of "Mobile Phone" in two weeks, which really shocked the mainland film market!
In 2000, the total annual box office of mainland films fell to a record low, only 860 million yuan!
To this end, in 2002, the mainland implemented the reform of the cinema system.
That is, at the end of 2002, "Hero" was born, sweeping the mainland film market by 248 million yuan, opening the blockbuster era of mainland films.
"Hero" has also injected a shot of strength into mainland filmmakers, and the relevant departments have continuously introduced measures conducive to the development of the film market, making everyone feel that the mainland film market is still promising.
It's a pity that the outbreak of the epidemic in 2003 did not appear in the rise of the film market that many people were looking forward to, and the annual champion box office was only 53 million!
This makes everyone feel that the development of the mainland film market may take a long time.
As a result, at the beginning of 2004, "District 9" suddenly exploded!
Last year's annual box office champion was broken in only two weeks, which shows the strength of "District 9"!
This result makes Chen Hao happy, and all filmmakers should be more or less happy, which shows that the mainland film market has indeed improved.
"Hero" will not be a flash in the pan, as long as the movie is good enough, it can still achieve a high box office.
And the box office of "District 9" broke 55 million yuan in two weeks, which made many people wonder if its final box office could break 100 million!
As of February 2004, there are only 5 films in the mainland film market with accurate statistics and a box office of more than 100 million!
They are 103 million "True Lies", 360 million "Titanic", 120 million "Life and Death Choice", 104 million "Pearl Harbor" and 248 million "Heroes"!
Among them, there are 3 Hollywood blockbusters, 1 domestic film, and 1 co-production!
The "Life and Death Choice" in this is a little controversial, because many departments chartered it to watch it at that time, but its box office did break 100 million!
In other words, there are only 5 movies in mainland film history that have a box office of more than 100 million, and there are only two Chinese directors who have entered the 100 million yuan box office club!
They are Yu Benzheng, the director of "Life and Death Choice", and the director of "Hero", Guoshi!
If the box office of "District 9" can finally break 100 million, then Chen Hao will become the third Chinese director to enter the 100 million yuan club!
This is an achievement that Chen Kaige and Feng Dacang among the three major directors have not achieved!
If it is really realized, then Chen Hao's status and influence in the film industry will be greatly improved.
At that time, even if the media will put Chen Hao and the three major directors alongside, I believe there will not be too many people who will oppose it!
Now everyone is waiting for the next box office of "District 9", wanting to see if it can become the sixth film in mainland film history to break 100 million yuan at the box office!
Let's also see if Chen Hao can become the third director in the mainland to enter the 100 million yuan club!
The box office of "District 9" of 55.87 million yuan in two weeks has caused a heated discussion, and the reporter who is doing good things also wants to interview Feng Dacang, who has always been unable to get along with Chen Hao!
Unexpectedly, Feng Dacang actually accepted an interview.
"What do you think about the box office of "District 9"? What do you think? Do you think that it is so simple to have a box office of over 100 million?"
"But the box office of "District 9" exceeded 55 million in two weeks, and it doesn't seem difficult to break 100 million, right?" the reporter retorted.
If a movie wants to break 100 million, in addition to big investment, it must also have a strong lineup, which is the case with my new film "No Rules in the World".
The production cost is 50 million, starring Liu Dehua, Ge You, and Liu Ruoying, and it will definitely be able to exceed 100 million at the box office!" Feng Dacang said confidently.
"When will "No Thieves in the World" be released?" the reporter asked.
"It's still a Chinese New Year file, believe me, "No Thieves in the World" will definitely become the box office champion of the year like last year's "Mobile Phone"!" Feng Dacang said domineeringly.
"In addition to Hollywood blockbusters this year, there are also Chen Hao's "District 9", Guoshi's "Ambush on All Sides" and Xing Ye's "Kung Fu", Director Feng is sure to win the annual box office champion?"
Feng Dacang was stunned when he heard this, he still has some confidence in Chen Hao and Xing Ye, but the national teacher, then he is a little worried, after all, the 248 million of "Hero" is the runner-up at the box office in mainland film history!
Feng Dacang also doesn't believe that the box office of his "No Thieves in the World" can exceed 200 million, and 100 million is good!
However, having said all that, you can't slap yourself in the face!
"Their movies are indeed strong competitors, but I, Feng Dacang, have never been afraid of anyone!" Feng Dacang said stiffly.
Subsequently, Feng Cannon made headlines because of his big mouth.
For a while, everyone's focus has become who can win the annual box office champion this year!
In 2004, Hollywood blockbusters released in the mainland included "The Lord of the Rings 3", "Harry Potter 2" and "Spider-Man 2" being the most popular!
The others are Chen Hao's "Ninth District", the National Teacher's "Ambush on All Sides", Xing Ye's "Kung Fu", Feng Dacang's "No Thieves in the World" and Cheng Long's "New Police Story"!
For this reason, many media also made a poll to let everyone predict the possible 2004 annual box office champion!
As a result, the National Teacher's "Ambush on All Sides" won the championship with one horse, after all, the last film of the National Teacher swept the country and was the runner-up in the mainland film history.
The support rate of several other films is not much different, but "District 9" has a slight advantage, after all, it exceeds 55 million in two weeks, and the media are saying that it may break 100 million!
There are only 5 movies in mainland film history that have exceeded 100 million so far, and if "District 9" really breaks 100 million at the box office, then the chances of winning the annual box office championship are too great!
And the last one is Xing Ye's "Kung Fu", Xing Ye is naturally famous in the mainland, and there are basically no young people who have not watched his movies.
However, the box office of Xingye's movie in the mainland is not high, and the last self-directed and self-starred "Shaolin Football" was not even released in the mainland.
Therefore, although Xing Ye is not as well-known as the three major directors in the mainland, the support rate of "Kung Fu" is the lowest!
