Chapter 136 broke 1 billion
。
"Green Snake" is a giant in the mainland, and no movie can stop it, not even a Hollywood blockbuster.
However, in the WW and HK regions, the reputation is not good, and the box office is also poor.
Originally, the box office in these two regions was indifferent, but an industry insider still wondered why such a classic movie would fail in HK and WW.
Especially in HK, the box office is the worst, not even tens of millions of Hong Kong dollars.
"Don't you think it's good? It's an ordinary movie?"
"Can this movie get such a high box office?"
"It's just a combination of a level 3 film and a monster film. ”
"The actors are beautiful, but the movie is not good. ”
"I'm bored, I'm going to fall asleep watching it. ”
These are almost HK and WW's evaluations of "Green Snake", and Qing Yishui's bad reviews. It can be said that Zhang Li has made so many movies, and it is the worst in HK and WW for the first time.
Although it has been reported in the media, it has not made any waves.
Because everyone knows what Zhang Li's attitude towards HK and WW is. And now that the movie has such a high box office, it doesn't matter if there are so many places missing. You said that if it used to be an entertainment center, it might still be big news, but who cares now.
Zhang Li also learned about the situation from the Internet, but he was not surprised.
When "Green Snake" was released, it was to go to my grandmother's house. It can be said that it is a mess of defeat, whether it is WW or HK.
However, there were two reasons for the failure of "Green Snake" back then, one was that there were too many classic movies at that time, and the second was that the movie was a little ahead of its time.
At that time, the box office of "Green Snake" ranked second to last in the year, and the main reason was that the movie was too advanced and the movie did not meet the market of HK at that time.
.............
Zhang Li and several leading actors are running roadshows all over the country, unhurriedly promoting the movie.
And the box office of "Green Snake" has also skyrocketed under the super high quality and strong publicity.
Whether it is industry insiders or audience fans, looking at the results of "Green Snake" only feels dizzy.
This is not the data of domestic movies at all, only Hollywood blockbusters have data, or blockbusters like "Avatar" and "Transformers".
Although there is a "Ice Age 4" now, which is also a Hollywood blockbuster, otherwise it would not be released again. It's just a pity that the beginning doesn't have the courage of those super blockbusters, and even the stamina is much worse. Although it attracts a lot of people to watch, it doesn't need to be thought about when it is said that it will cause the whole people to watch.
But "Green Snake" has attracted more and more people to the theater under word of mouth.
The first is that the reputation is good, the online score is also very high, the second is that the special effects are no worse than Hollywood's, and it is completely a story that belongs to the flower planter himself, of course, I have to support it, and the third is to hope that the movie can also break the box office of 1 billion.
In the past, Hollywood blockbusters have been pressing on the head of the flower planter's movie, although many people are unhappy, but other people's movies are really good, and there is no way. In the past, movies were not powerful, but now there is a phenomenal movie, of course, it is necessary to support it.
Although there is eroticism/plot in the film, it is a freehand shooting, although it makes people infinitely reverie, but it does not give people a sense of obscenity.
Although it is not suitable for parents to watch with children, it is very suitable for the mainstream group of moviegoers, and it is suitable for young people, especially among friends.
I used to always watch foreign movies about the death and life of love or foreign myths, but now you can watch folk myths and stories that belong to the flower growers themselves in the cinema, and they are not that kind of bad movies.
In the second week, the number of "Green Snake" has reached 602 million, which has set countless records, and the two movies that began to attract much attention in the same period "Four Famous Catches" and "Search" also failed.
To be honest, there are too many coincidences in the success of "Green Snake", and it was released only in the domestic protection month. Without Hollywood blockbusters like "The Avengers" being released at the same time, it is already very good.
At the end of the month, I was still worried about "Ice Age 4" at the end of the month, and now it is not enough, and by the end of the month, I don't know how much box office "Green Snake" has at that time.
On July 20, the box office of "Green Snake", which has been released for half a month, has reached 7.02. Compared with the "Painted Skin 2" in the previous life, it is no worse, and more importantly, "Green Snake" is still in theaters, and there is a box office of about 24 million per day.
Except for some young people, some slightly older. For example, people in their thirties and forties also go to the cinema to watch this movie.
In the past, Zhang Li's mainstream moviegoers were younger, except for the movie "Jingwu Heroes", which is suitable for all ages, most of the other movies are watched by young people.
The theme and publicity of "Green Snake" made these people who are usually not interested in this film also enter the theater one after another. After all, the subject matter is good, it is "The Legend of the White Snake".
These people have their own independent economic ability, and they are very familiar with the theme of "The Legend of the White Snake". When I was young, when I didn't have a TV, I grew up listening to my parents tell mythological stories and "The Legend of the White Snake" and "The Cowherd and the Weaver Girl".
And when "The Legend of the New White Lady" was launched, many people regarded Zhao Yaqi as a goddess. Although it is not Zhao Yaqi starring now, it is for this kind of movie with a very good reputation
Still a little curious.
These people don't need to watch all of them, as long as they go in, some of them bring a lot of box office to "Green Snake".
"Green Snake" can be said to have set off a nationwide movie-watching boom during its release, and was loved by fans of all ages from all walks of life, and the box office skyrocketed all the way, constantly breaking domestic film history records.
Seeing this terrifying momentum, the peers in the circle were about to cry. Really, only half of the 12 years have passed, and there are many movies that can make a profit in the first half of the year, but if it is the kind of movie that sells well, in addition to Hollywood blockbusters, I think there are only a few movies from Zhang Li's studio. Now "Green Snake" produced by Zhang Li's studio can be said to be the biggest winner in the first half of the year, and some people have even said that it is the biggest winner in 12 years.
As of August 10, "Green Snake" has been released for about a month. Although it is no longer as popular as it was at the beginning, it still maintains a very good box office.
Although it is no longer able to maintain the first position in the back, the daily box office results are also hovering in fourth and fifth.
Now the box office has accumulated to 947 million! The box office of 1 billion is just around the corner!
.............
.....................
...............................
However, on August 13, "The Wind Listener" will be released. This Mai Chaohui Zhuang Wenqiang teamed up again, and gathered Liang Chaowei, Zhou Gongzi, Wang Xuebing and others to be released.
This "Listener to the Wind" is a spy war film, and I don't know if I saw that the box office of "The Wind" two years ago was exciting, so I also made such a spy war film and invited Zhou Gongzi to star.
This movie claims to be an investment of 100 million, or is it invested by Meiya. is the one who Yang Mi went south to the Hong Kong circle to sign a contract, and this movie is Meiya's investment in the mainland film market.
Originally, Zhang Li didn't pay attention to anything about this movie, and he didn't have a big impression of the movie "The Wind Listener", so he knew that the box office of this movie was okay.
After all, although he has traveled over and knows a lot of movie works. But these Chinese and foreign film works are all classics, even if they are not classics. It's also a high-grossing movie, or the kind of film that has big news.
Movies like "Listener to the Wind" can't even enter the top ten of the year, and there is no big impression at all.
This kind of movie is released more every year, although there are Liang Chaowei and Zhou Gongzi. But if you rely on stars alone, although there is a box office, but if the movie is really bad, then it is useless to invite anyone.
And "Green Snake" is about to break 1 billion, so Zhang Li has no intention of paying attention at this moment.
"Why did it suddenly decrease?"
Looking at the newly delivered box office and film schedule, I suddenly felt that something was wrong.
Originally, there were still 18.7 percent of the film schedule at this time, but it suddenly became 14.3 percent, a decrease of about 4 points.
"Don't you know?" asked Xu Han.
"What do I want to know?" Zhang Li hates selling Guan Zi the most, so can't he just say things.
"The Wind Listener" was released, and the theater schedule accounted for 40.7 percent. ”
"Then why do you want to reduce our film schedule, don't you know if we are going to break 1 billion?"
At this time, there are already more than 900 million box office, and there are still a little more than 10 million box office every day, and it is not far from breaking 1 billion.
Although reducing these films will not have much impact on breaking 1 billion, it will not reduce the number of films before it has been said that there are still 5 million at the box office. Now that "The Wind Listener" is released, his film schedule will be reduced, what the hell.
"Wanda has invested in "The Wind Listener", although it is not much, but it is also participatory. ”
Well, when he heard that, he kind of understood. This is a descendant of the army, although it is not much, but it is also invested.
Fortunately, Wanda didn't go too far, just reduced the film schedule a little.
But this still makes him very unhappy, isn't it playing with people to reduce the film schedule in this case? But when he thinks of the behemoth, he is a little cowardly. There's no way not to coax it, how much people will break the cannon in the future, Wan Da will not immediately write a letter to admit his mistake as soon as the theater line is cut off, hoping to schedule the film.
Well, but Zhang Li thought that he had invested in ByteDance. decided to get up and develop a wave first, and wait until he became stronger.
............
"The Wind Listener" grossed more than 17 million on the first day, and the momentum was a big hit. In addition, the main creative team is the second cooperation between the two of Maizhuang, and Liang Chaowei and Zhou Gongzi are still expected by many people.
The box office in the first week was 150 million, and this data has stabilized. Although it is said that the cost of investment is 100 million, it is about 8000 million at most. So the movie "The Wind Listener" can be regarded as making money.
Just when "The Wind Listener" was preparing for the celebration banquet, a piece of news soon made this highly promising movie almost die.
The filmmaker falsely reported the box office!
Falsely reporting the box office is not a big deal in the first place, after all, many movies have this thing. After all, if a movie is more than 95 million, it will be more than 100 million short of 5 million. Many filmmakers will buy the box office or falsely report the box office, but many times they falsely report the box office, which will make the box office look better.
It's not just box office falsehoods, many in the entertainment industry are the same.
For example, many years ago, albums in the entertainment industry could still be sold for money, and many of them made money saying that they broke 500,000, 700,000, or 1 million.
In fact, the real sales of these albums are about 400,000, 600,000, and 8.9 million. There are also false reports, but they are not too exaggerated.
There used to be a lot of false reports at the box office of movies, after all, the box office statistics were not very good. And HK was very chaotic at that time, and a lot of the box office was washed.
However, after the development of the Internet in recent years, false reports are not so exaggerated, at most several million.
I originally thought that this "Wind Listener" would be like this time, but when I really understand it, I know that it is scary!
The real box office of "Listener to the Wind" is a little more than 100 million, and the result is more than 150 million when it is released, which scares people to death.
Nearly 50 million, this is completely the total box office of some small-budget movies. can only say that I admire the filmmaker, it's okay to have this lineup of movies, and it's really my own death to do this.
The originally good celebration banquet became embarrassing, and the public opinion behind it was relatively large. In terms of theaters, the film schedule has been directly reduced, from about 40% to 20.6%, which is cut by half.
Now it is clear to everyone that this "Listener to the Wind" is over.
...................
"Listener to the Wind" is invested by Meiya and published by Meiya. Although there are Golden Globe companies in both investment and issuance, it is Wanda who really contributes.
Although Wanda's name is not visible on the list, there are still some if you look for it from Wanda's website.
Wan Da can be regarded as a test of the waters, after all, his family also has a theater of its own. I must also want to produce my own movies, otherwise what would I do if I opened a film company and lose money.
In 14 years, it is a watershed, although Wanda has produced movies before, most of them are movies that lose money or make small profits, and there is no real big-money movie.
It was only in 14 years that the real force was launched, and the films produced and distributed were all made with big investments or by big directors. For example, Lao Mouzi's "The Return", Du Qifeng's "Single Men and Women", Chen Sicheng's "Beijing Love Story", Xu Laowei's "Outwitting Tiger Weishan", Jiang Wen's "One Step Away", Xu Zheng's "Hypnosis Master", and of course, the "White-Haired Witch: Bright Moon Heaven" that is so bad that it is like shit that ruined the original work.
Originally, the movie "Listener to the Wind" would exceed 200 million, and the final box office was 232 million, surpassing "The Wind" to become a new box office height for spy war films.
It's a pity that he died by himself, and now his reputation is ruined. It would be nice to get the money back, and I don't want to surpass "The Wind".
Liang Chaowei and Zhou Gongzi only said that the movie was like this when they were promoting, and the topics of distribution and box office were not discussed.
"The Wind Listener" is over after experiencing this incident, seeing such a miserable situation, Zhang Li still snickered a little inexplicably in his heart.
Of course, Zhang Li doesn't have time to care about these now, and now he is all staring at the box office.
On August 19, 2012, the box office of "Green Snake" officially exceeded 1 billion, and the current box office is 1.014 billion!
To be honest, when he saw the box office exceeding 1 billion, the people on Zhang Li's side must have been happy. But you have to say that other people in the industry are happy, hehe, I can't wait for you to die, and your peers are enemies.
Especially the film maker of "The Wind Listener", which is being released now.
"The Wind Listener" originally had nothing to do with Zhang Li, after all, one had just been released, and the other was about to be painted.
There is no connection between the two parties at all, but it is such a film that has no relationship at all that is related.
After "Green Snake" broke through the box office of 1 billion, many people watched it back. Many people want to see this flower planter's first Chinese movie that broke 1 billion, while some people buy tickets to brush it a few more times to record this moment, after all, this is the first time for the flower planter.
This sudden return to the light generally made many theaters add some films to "Green Snake".
This made the filmmakers of "The Wind Listener" unhappy, especially Meiya.
The relationship between Meiya and Zhang Li is not very good, first because Zhang Li has a bad relationship with the Hong Kong circle. Although he is okay with Xu Laowei and these people now, these people do not have much conflict of interest with Zhang Li, and they also have a good cooperative relationship with Bona, so they still get along very well. But some other people in the Hong Kong circle are still like that.
The second is Yang Mi, originally Yang Mi signed with Meiya after the end of the Rongxinda contract. But this is not the case now, when Yang Mi was still negotiating a contract with Meiya, Zhang Li suddenly asked Yang Mi to make a cameo appearance in the movie. Originally, there was nothing wrong with the cameo, but there was a problem with Yang Mi's fire.
Yang Mi's fire made her realize that the Hong Kong circle is not as powerful as before. At least after Zhang Li appeared, the Hong Kong circle had been suppressed, which made the signing contract between Yang Mi and Meiya a cooperation contract, and Yang Mi also opened her own studio in advance.
Now he has a Di Liba, such a popular artist. Meiya must borrow it, but Yang Mi has her own ideas. I started planning to leave Meiya by myself, after all, the resources given by Meiya are not good.
If it had been before, maybe Yang Mi would have borrowed Meiya's resources. But now Yang Mi has a certain popularity in both TV series and movies, although the movie is much worse, but at least it is also popular.
Now she has started the model of Jiahang in the future, and she has taken newcomers to start filming TV series.
