Chapter 1032: Backstabbing!
The next day, the box office for the first day was released.
The theory of Xu Yuan's fall, which was previously advocated by major media, seems to have finally been confirmed.
Yesterday, although all the media reported it, and although they were convinced that the data they obtained through special channels was true, the official data did not come out after all.
And today, the official data is released, and there is no chance that anything will go wrong.
"Return to Earth", the box office of the first week and the first day of North Rice, 83 million!
stepped on the three films of Avengers I, Jurassic World, and Batman v Superman and forcibly ascended to the position, ranking behind Avengers II, ranking in the top 15 of the first-day box office in Beimi.
was supposed to be in the top ten, but over the years, Xu Yuan's films have been menacing, and there have been many explosions on the first day, which has raised the level alive.
For example, the just-released "Furious Seven" is higher than this level, although it is not directed and acted by Xu Yuan, but it is also half of Xu Yuan's movie. Even, he is the biggest contributor and beneficiary of the success of "Super Seven".
Of course, the result of "Return to Earth", no matter who you compare with, is not bad. If the follow-up does not collapse, it can be said to be one of the best box office films in recent years.
It also came as a relief to many who were worried about Fox.
You must know that Fox spent a lot of money on the publicity of this film. The original budget of 150 million yuan has come to 200 million after these years of intermittent use.
As a result, this wave of publicity directly made the total cost exceed 250 million yuan, and went straight to the 300 million mark.
"Dark Phoenix", which cost 350 million last month, died so ugly, everyone is still shocked, if this is pounced again, it is really Jesus who can't save Fox.
Luckily, Fox won the bet.
Even if the total box office of this film in North America is only about 200 million, it is difficult to recover the cost, but he also won.
Because of the box office of another movie released at the same time as "Return to Earth", it was a complete failure.
"The Curious Case of Benjamin Button", North Rice's first-day box office, 41 million meters.
It's only half the size of Return to Earth.
Even the production cost of "Benjamin" is only half of that of "Return to Earth", only 1.5 billion meters.
But the media doesn't look at that.
Success and defeat are eternal truths.
Xu Yuan, really defeated!
β¦β¦
"Xu Yuan lost, fart, he won't lose, and he hasn't lost now!" Kobe Bryant was very angry in an interview, "We in the NBA, there is real data." The same two players who scored 20 points, one took 15 shots and the other took 10 shots, is that the same concept? Obviously not. β
"It's the same with movies. β
"If you look at the schedules of the two films, in terms of efficiency, "Return to Earth" has three times as many schedules as "Benjamin", but the box office is just over twice as high as ours. What does this mean? It shows that with the same film schedule, our box office will obviously be higher. β
Bryant's statement was quickly questioned by "professionals".
Zemeckis, who has not appeared for a long time, finally appeared in front of the camera again this time, full of spring: "Reality is not a simple mathematical model. For any movie, the more films scheduled, the lower the average attendance rate will be, which is common knowledge in the industry. β
"With so many films scheduled for "Benjamin", he may not have such results. So, stop those naΓ―ve words again. What's more, the film schedule itself is also part of the comprehensive strength of the film. β
"If it weren't for the fact that our films were better and favored by more theater managers, why would we get so many films?"
Volute's temper tantrum directly exploded: "You're farting, clown Robert! Why do you get more films, don't you know? I want to see if you can really make money from this movie!"
Zemeckis: "Hahaha, what if you can't make money, but we defeated Xu Yuan!"
The villain has a will, nothing more than that.
Danzemeckis' happiness did not last long.
At noon, a photo was exposed by a certain media outlet.
It was in a movie theater, and Will Smith was walking into the theater with two movie tickets in the hands of his former wife, Jada, in the other.
And when you zoom in on the photo, the movie ticket is "The Curious Case of Benjamin Button".
Before Will Smith finished watching the movie, the cinema was already surrounded by countless media reporters.
Everyone wonders, what exactly does Will mean?
Even though he once said that he would go to see Xu's new movie, it was only the next day.
And it is also a sensitive moment when Xu Yuan's miracle has just ended.
Could it be that Will is going to start enjoying the aura of ending the myth of Xu Yuan's undefeated?
Did he defeat Xu Yuan to make a gorgeous return and regain his footing at the top of Hollywood male stars?
Too many people were looking forward to the moment when Will said these words out of his mouth.
Finally, the film was shown.
The moment Will walked out of the theater, he wasn't particularly surprised. He was in the cinema and got a message from his agent, who told him to be cautious.
After all, Fox gave them a lot of money, and it is said that many people are now looking for Fox in the hope of cooperating. If Will can get back together with Fox, it is clear that the agent wants to see it the most.
"Hello, Will, why did you come to see Xu's movie? Are you showing off? Or are you trying to taste the loser's dinner?" a reporter asked.
Will smiled slightly, shook his head and said, "Of course not, in fact, Xu and I are very good friends." Although we didn't have much contact, we admired each other's work very much. Especially for me, I especially love Xu's works, "Leon" and "Forrest Gump" are the scripts of my dreams. β
"And "50 First Loves" is my favorite film to watch, I am his fan, he is a fan brother!"
Will's answer surprised everyone.
The agents who were watching the live broadcast were dumbfounded.
Didn't you say that you would step on Xu Yuan, and then show favor to Fox?
Why does this plot seem wrong?
Bite!
Will's agent received a text message from Will's wife Jada: "Thank you for your dedication to Will over the years, but I have to admit that since signing with you, Will has been on the road of bad movies forever, and he has consumed too much popularity." β
"You can't be blamed for that, but we'd rather have a sincere friend. We won't say much about Fox's buying of you, we hope we can get together and disperse. β
"Bogut, you've been fired. β
The agent shuddered.
He's finished.
Not because he didn't have Will, but because he knew that he was sold by Will. Will disliked Fox from start to finish, but he always thought he had successfully lobbied Will.
Who knew Will was just just bad money.
Now that the money is in hand, Will doesn't even bother to pretend.
This Nima!
It's a backstab!
Fox will not let himself go.
Bogut's face turned pale.
On the other hand, Will's interview continued, and he seemed to be completely indifferent to Fox's attitude, openly courting Xu Yuan, and expressing his shock at "Benjamin".
"I should be asked to play this movie, really!" Will said sincerely.
