Chapter 419: Midnight Box Office Released
Zhou Xiao slept very badly, and the reason for making up for a while before was a small part, mainly because of the worry about the box office, it was already two o'clock when he got home, and the results of the whole country had come out, but they had not been counted yet.
In the dead of night, it is easy for a person to guess blindly, staying up until more than four o'clock, he can't help but fall asleep sleepily, but he has been dreaming, one time the box office is only less than two million, he is chased by investors, panicked, and the other time it becomes a hit, cutting down 30 million midnight games, admired by 10,000 people, anyway, it is chaotic.
So much so that when the phone rang, his head was still groggy, but he immediately picked it up, the time, 8:30, the caller, the cauldron, he specially didn't turn off the mute, he was waiting for this call.
"How much?" Zhou Xiao got straight to the point.
"Eight million seven million!"
"Say it again!" Zhou Xiao yelled.
The cauldron was not surprised by his reaction at all: "The national box office at midnight is 8,764,000." β
",,!" Zhou Xiao said three times in a row: "It's confirmed, right." β
"Nonsense, Lao Tzu arrived at the company at half past seven, has been waiting for the results, and has watched it several times, absolutely right. The cauldron was also very excited, and after he got the news, he called as soon as he could.
Eight million is not a small number, the current highest domestic record is 62.7 million set by "Fast and Furious 8", although it is likely to be defeated by Avengers 4 soon, but it is still the dominant position.
Although this number is only half of "Captain Marvel" at the beginning of the month, it is basically the same as "Aquaman" released last year, only 200,000 less, which can be said to be quite good.
"You digest it first, I still have a lot of calls to make here, and there are meetings to be held, so let's do this first. β
"Well, you're busy!"
Zhou Xiao shook his head, yes, the first battle was fought very beautifully, it stands to reason that it is less than "Aquaman", I don't dare to say that it is the same two billion, I took a quarter of it, it is not too much.
Oops, I forgot to ask how much "The Human Comedy" came about.
Roll over, get up, how can you sleep, the company must start to make a move, this number can blow a wave, and I must cooperate here.
While brushing his teeth, Zhou Xiao recalled that the box office of "Good Teacher" the day before yesterday was 8.3 million, and Alita's was 12.6 million, and the three-legged conclusion was inevitable.
The midnight show has surpassed the former, and if you play well today, you can win this week's box office championship, and the key point is word-of-mouth.
Usually wash up and apply some skin care products or something, at least 20 minutes, today, 1 minute.
After spending three minutes in a hurry to tidy up, I poured a glass of water and sat down in front of the computer.
Hiss...
I don't know what's going on, I haven't watched the news and comments of "Exercise" for the time being, he first searched for the box office of "Human Comedy" and two other movies, and after gasping, he was silently happy.
"Allen Meets Waterloo?"The Human Comedy" had a dismal box office at midnight, with only 1.37 million, and both scored 4.2 points. β
This news directly stunned Zhou Xiao, 1.37 million is not important, the key is that the score is really a bit low, as a comedy, the passing score is at least six points, this... The boss is atmospheric, give me a chance!
"Good Teacher" slipped slightly, and the box office on Friday was 7.25 million,
"Alita-Battle Angel" 11,930,000,
"Dumbo" 6.7 million,
"Mirage" 5.8 million,
After Zhou Xiao finished reading it, he stood up directly, waved his arms with the madman and began to dance around, it is really worth celebrating, "Exercise" took the lead and cut nearly 10 million box office first.
Today is the weekend, and the box office of competitors will definitely rise compared to weekdays, but the range is limited, and the company has predicted that if it can reach 5 million, it will have a chance to reach 50 million on the premiere day.
The most important thing is that the direct competitor pounced, and the film schedule originally reserved for him will inevitably be reduced and divided by other films, and at present, it seems that there are only two opponents left that can be affected.
"Good Teacher" is a good film, but since its release for a week, it has been very stable, except for the premiere, it is about 10 million every day, and it is estimated that it will be more than 300 million in the end, and it is difficult to make a big hit.
In this way, the "exercise" can focus on the opponent in the next week, that is, in these seven days, it should maximize the results.
danced for a while, Zhou Xiao's head was also running rapidly, by the way, I haven't seen Douban yet!
The score on Maoyan is quite high, 8.5, which is basically not counted, and any film has more than eight points, which has no reference value.
opened Douban, Zhou Xiao and the child seemed to block the position of the score, and slowly declined.
yesοΌ
A big 7 points are displayed on it, and in one night alone, more than 3,000 people scored it.
Zhou Xiao started dancing again, 7 points, that's a pretty high score, of course, because of the existence of fans, and because of the premiere, it will be a little inflated, and it will slowly come down, but seven points is amazing, Thailand's score is only 7.4, Xihong City is 6.6 points, "Exercise" can be blown to the sky, okay.
After panting and pouring some cold water, Zhou Xiao focused on the comments.
Five-star: 10%
Four-star: 39.5%
Samsung: 40.7%
Two-star: 8.6%
1 Star: 1.2%
Big Winner: You think it's playing a live-action version of Counter-Strike, scoffing at 'serious and you'll lose', but in the eyes of a fool, it's something that has to be taken seriously, even if everyone else is distracted. The twisting created by the dislocation is very joyful, but the twisting and twisting of the values is 'positive'. The farce of unconventional and anti-routine not only satirizes formalism, but also allows the little people to heal. It can also make you laugh out loud, and the brand on the hostage alone will burst with laughter.
It's very good-looking, there are very few redundant shots in the film, and the whole process is basically in the exercise, and the character setting is quite interesting, and the female policeman is very beautiful.
The original script is very powerful, but the remake is not the original sin, and the regionalization innovation is desirable, because this is a rare positive depiction of the process of bank robbery in Chinese films, and it is the victory of the "villain", which points out the formalism and the atmosphere of getting by, which is quite ironic and bold in a restricted environment. The contrasting effect of the misplaced comedy is combined with the humor, the strong X scene is the most funny, the Stockholm-style twist in the third act is abrupt, and the positive energy at the end comes too suddenly. The movie is worth three stars, take a step back, the discount rate of comedy in the form of video playback is not high, you can watch a lot of fun, you can pass the time, it's better than that, plus points!
It is another film that seriously bought the copyright adaptation, and it has been filmed in China, Japan and South Korea, and it seems that such a story of robbing a bank has the commonality of Asia. I've watched the Korean version, Zhang Yu is very good at choosing movies, this movie is very popular with the male lead, basically his behavior drives the rationality of the whole story, and in the end, it is understandable that a female colleague like Meng Ziyi will fall in love with an ordinary and honest man like him.
This is probably the most awesome comedy movie I've seen this year, the screenwriter's skills are too powerful, everything is reasonable and unexpected, the rhythm is particularly tight, there are a lot of laughs, the final ending is really unexpected, but I don't feel nonsense! The actors' acting skills are online, none of them have dropped the chain, the most important thing!!In the end, the police lost!!In Huaxia, when did the police lose!!!
It's hard to believe that this is Zhou Xiao's first movie, skillful and brilliant, done in one go, especially to praise the rhythm, especially compact, no procrastination and what do you say about the short, after simply paving the way, start immediately, the name of "Exercise" is appropriate.
I really don't want to watch the movies that were shot in forty days, those that took a year or two, spent hundreds of millions, and the ones that were shot were also rubbish, but there was no way, I couldn't help it, I couldn't help my daughter-in-law, and I went to the cinema with me. Then, I laughed, Zhang Yu's expression was really in place, he was serious from beginning to end, and the corners of his mouth twitched at most, but it was he who set off the overall atmosphere, admitted, laughed many times, admitted, belongs to an excellent comedy.
Small cost, big energy, I have watched the Korean version, each has its own merits, the unique humor and irony of the Korean style, they can be ridiculed and conquered at will, Director Zhou Xiao is very bold and dares to let the police lose, it is worth affirming, the rhythm is okay, there is no delay, and the ending song is praised.
It's unexpectedly good-looking, the theme is quite layered, Zhang Yu can, Mencius is not bad, eccentric, it's just too beautiful, I haven't seen such a beautiful front desk when I went to the bank.
I always thought that Zhou Xiao was the protagonist, but I remembered it when I finally got home, eh, I didn't see him, oh! It turned out to be a director, I really can't imagine that this is a new director's work, I don't understand the shooting technique, I only know that the plot is good, and the audience who went to see the movie laughed, recommended.
Surprise! Finally, there is a new decompression comedy to meet everyone, whether it is plainclothes at the beginning, a policewoman disguised as a doctor, or a special police officer who came at the end is quite distinctive, and, the most rare thing is that there are several supporting roles in the play, I actually have an impression, which is very powerful.
After eating the good dishes, although Zhou Xiao was unwilling, he still had to take a hard look at the bad reviews, there were quite a few, accounting for 5% of the total comments, and the one he scolded was called an ugly one.
From the script, to the director, to the comparison with the Korean version, to the acting skills of the actors, to all aspects, there are sprays, what is the most angry, some people scold, and finally have to add, don't go to see it, waste time, and lock the bad movie of the year.
it!
Zhou Xiao slapped the table heavily, are you so blind, can't you see the rating, 7 points, you don't like it, I can understand, you spent money to watch the movie, you are qualified to speak, but you mislead others, nonsense, it's not necessary, what kind of hatred and what kind of grudge!
Of course, he knows that even if the No. 1 film still has bad reviews, as an ordinary person, as a director who has worked hard for the movie, he will still be sad when he sees these reviews.
It's like giving birth to a child, and people say in front of you: ugly!
However, the mood soon improved, seven points, I can already know the audience's approximate attitude and evaluation of the movie, and he is paying attention to the chats in the fan group.
Everyone is very supportive, but they are all limited to buying movie tickets, entering the cinema, forwarding links, posting bar publicity, etc., and they don't say that the organization has scored or anything, of course, the people who have seen it must have been given five stars, which he has confidence in, and there must be a bonus for idols, all movies are the same.
Therefore, the rating is real and valid.
The phone rings again.
"Mr. Zhou, congratulations!"
Zhou Xiaogang picked up the phone, there was a mess on the other end, glad that he didn't make a mistake, it was Meng Ziyi who called, and he didn't shout a strange name, there must be all the actors together over there.
"Director, congratulations. β
"That's great, 8.7 million. β
"The exercise is about to take off. β
"Hooray, hooray. β
The other party didn't care whether there was a response or not, they were shouting loudly, expressing their excitement, and it took a while to ease up.
"Don't be careless, it's just midnight, we have to look at today's box office, Mr. Guo will come out soon on Weibo and forward it to me. β
"Roger!"
(Thanks to Yang Qinghua's boss for the 5,000-point reward, it's not too little, it's an astronomical amount for the moon that is only 200 less than the reward in a month, and there is a monthly ticket activity in the comment area, no more than 20 tickets, one for 500 points, you can participate)
