Chapter 54 Soaring
Chapter 54 Soaring
Penguin.com: On April 20, director Zhang Li brought his third work kung fu film "Jingwu Hero" to the theater. The box office on the first day was 41.2 million, and the box office for the first day was 210 million. Industry insiders predict that the total box office performance of director Zhang Li's new film "Jingwu Fengyun" will exceed 800 million, which is expected to break the record of director Feng Dacang and become the youngest director of the Chinese film box office record.
Sohu Entertainment: In the early morning of the 27th of this month, "Jingwu Fengyun", co-starred by China's famous Zhang Li and China's famous actors Wu Jing, Zhang Jin, Ji Chunhua and neon actors Ishihara Satomi and Kurata Baozhao, successfully broke the Chinese film record with a box office of 210 million in the first week. It is understood that the popularity of the film is very strong, with major theaters accounting for nearly 8 percent, and the filming continues to grow. Judging from the attendance rate of the zero o'clock premiere, it is also close to 8%. The reporter then learned in the cinemas of various cities that the early pre-sale showed that the film had a good momentum, and many viewers lined up to buy tickets in the morning, and even many viewers could not buy tickets, and it was difficult to find a ticket.
Sina News: The Chinese film market in the first half of the year can be described as bleak, especially in March. And with the anticipated and high-profile blockbuster "Warring States" hitting the streets, and Zhang Li's "Jingwu Heroes" is the highest in history after its release, and it is now expected to break the box office record of Chinese films, but I don't know if it will hit the box office of 1 billion and make Chinese films the first place.
In the major theaters, the number of screenings of "Jingwu Heroes" is according to Hollywood blockbusters, and in terms of film scheduling, the first day is 36.7%.

---------------------------------------------------------
Of course, there are still many media that are hacking "Jingwu Heroes", saying that it is too vulgar and so on.
Some people also say that they don't need to care too much about the data, such as a certain HK director.
However, those who say these things are standing and talking without backache, and when "Jingwu Heroes" continues to be popular, no one will pay attention to it.
"Ghost director!"
This is the title that Zhang Li first obtained, but recently no one is saying that he is a ghost director, and everyone has recognized his directing talent. After all, if you talk about the box office alone, there are really few people who can be more powerful than Zhang Li.
To be honest, Zhang Li is not yet 30 years old, just in his 20s. Now the hype during this period of time has passed a bit, and it is a bit of a joke.
And the two movies "Snow Secret Fan" and "The Military Order of the Female General of the Yang Gate" that were released one after another hit the streets at that time, and they could not cause any damage to "Jingwu Heroes".
Especially "The Military Order of the Female General of the Yang Gate", known as an investment of 20 million US dollars, Zhang Baizhi's masterpiece after his comeback, there are also all kinds of old drama bones and beauties. was originally intended to be released in November, but now it has been launched by the Hong Kong circle and wants to fight "Jingwu Heroes" with "Guan Yunchang" and "A Chinese Ghost Story". Who knew that the box office in the first week didn't even have 10 million, and it was even offline after a three-day tour.
Under this perfect schedule, in the face of the encirclement and suppression of some so-called "blockbusters", the movie "Jingwu Heroes" did not show weakness, and directly gnawed the biggest cake to show its strength. And other movies face such giant-level opponents, there is no room for resistance at all, and they can't even drink soup.
As of May 6, "Jingwu Hero", which has been released for about half a month, has delivered a box office result of 550 million. The key is that it is still rising at a box office of nearly 21 million per day, and if it is calculated according to this result, it is likely to break 1 billion!
This made everyone inside and outside the circle dumbfounded!
Is this a rhythm that is going to break a billion?
Is kung fu movies going back to the golden age?
Countless film companies are simply suffering from pink eye when they see such numbers, which is too violent. Really, this number is not the final result. Such a result is already a number that many filmmakers can't reach at the box office of all their movies combined.
And now I see that "Jingwu Heroes" is so popular now, plus there was the "Ip Man" series some time ago. There are already many people who think that kung fu movies will return to the golden age, so many film companies are ready to start making kung fu movies and are ready to get a piece of the pie. Don't ask for 500 million, as long as it breaks 100 million, you will be happy.
And "Jingwu Heroes" doesn't just bring in revenue at the box office.
Guangxian announced that the box office of "Jingwu Heroes" has exceeded 500 million yuan, more than 40% of the company's audited operating income in the latest year
As soon as this announcement came out, the glamorous stock price instantly pulled to the limit.
Up to now, the movie "Jingwu Heroes" has brought about 400 million net profits to Guangxian.
And this is still a movie is still being released, and the box office will definitely continue to rise.
Now the eldest Wang is very happy, and he feels that his cooperation with Zhang Li was the wisest decision of his generation outside of the glamorous establishment.
But the king is happy, and the king is always annoyed.
If the glamour goes on like this, it will surpass the floral arrangement. But sooner or later, it will be equal, and when Zhang Li sought cooperation, his company let go of such a cornucopia.
And now the most painful thing should be the directors, actors and investors of several dramas such as "Guan Yunchang", "A Chinese Ghost Story", and "The Military Order of the Female General of the Yang Gate".
They didn't think that their movies would be so bad, or they knew that the movies would be bad, but they thought that other people's movies were also bad. Everyone should be worse than each other, so that everyone is the same, and they can make money. But now suddenly a wolf comes into the husky's kennel, and it makes people shiver.
"The cumulative box office of "Jingwu Heroes" is about to exceed 1 billion, and kung fu films will return to the top!"
""Ip Man" and "Jingwu Heroes" will take you to understand the pioneers who opened the prosperous era of kung fu films!"
When "Jingwu Heroes" was soaring all the way, there were a lot of similar news on the Internet and in the media.
It's not that it means breaking Feng's record, it's that the prosperity of kung fu movies is coming, and even more fiercely, it is going to break the record of "Avatar" and reach the top!
When Zhang Li first learned about these news, he was a little speechless.
How confident these people are?
The current film, although it looks more than he expected, may break Feng Cannon's film record.
But Zhang Li doesn't think that the prosperity of kung fu movies will come, nor does he think that he can beat Avatar, and it is a high incense to have a box office of 1 billion.
He can only do more roadshow promotion now, so that "Jingwu Heroes" will have a higher box office. Wait until the next part or the next part to break the record.
The last stop of the roadshow on May 10 was the magic capital, and at this time, the box office performance of "Jingwu Heroes" also reached an incredible 630 million!
On the same day, Zhang Li accepted an exclusive interview with "New Youth Literary Film".
"New Youth Literary Film" knows what type it is as soon as you hear the name, and of course, Zhang Li, a commercial director who is vulgar to them, will naturally not be friendly.
The first question is very poignant. "Director Zhang Li, someone commented before that most of the directors are directors with rich experience and professional backgrounds, do you think you deserve the box office of this movie now?" The young reporter was unceremonious, what does it mean to be worthy or not.
"Is it worthy? This is a bit strange, the box office of the movie is now 630 million, you still ask me this question?" Zhang Li felt that this reporter's brain was full of, otherwise how could he ask this question.
"In the name of making a kung fu movie, you made a "Jingwu Hero". And now that the box office of this movie has now exceeded 600 million, do you think this is your luck or something else, what do you think you are worse than other directors?"
Ma Dan, this reporter is a temporary worker, otherwise why is it so Shabi, he organized the language a little, "I can be responsible for saying that "Jingwu Hero" is a classic kung fu movie, you can ask those fans." And what do you mean by luck? I've made three movies, and each one of them is a big hit, is every one of them luck? Each of these movies is my heart's work, not your luck. And I don't think I'm any worse than other directors, I'm younger now, less than 30 years old. There are more opportunities to make better movies, "Jingwu Heroes" will not be my final chapter, he is a scenery on my road. ”

--------------------------------------------
After the release of "Jingwu Hero", it not only won the weekly box office championship in the mainland. It also won the box office championship in HK and WW.
There is no opponent at all in the same period in HK, and it is basically a movie that sweeps the same period like the autumn wind sweeping the leaves. If it weren't for the reduction of theaters later, it is estimated that the entire HK film market would have spent this period in the shadow of the box office of "Jingwu Heroes".
As for who said that the theater line adjusted the filming, in fact, you only need to guess to know who it is.
However, Zhang Li doesn't care much about HK's box office, anyway, it's just a little bit. However, this account is written down, and it will be returned next time.
And on the WW side, it won NT$190 million!
This achievement made all the filmmakers in WW go crazy, when did a film directed by a mainland be so invincible in WW, Feng Dacang didn't have it at the beginning, and there was no national teacher.
In fact, WW's filmmakers, or those in the entertainment industry, have a very strange sense of superiority.
There is a certain horse in the award, and in the case of a certain image award becoming more and more self-congratulatory, a certain horse award can already be said to be the leading position in the flower planter.
And in the past, many of HK's movies relied on WW's film market to survive, if you are not happy, it means that you will be banned if you are blocked. Liang Jiahui filmed "The Burning of the Old Summer Palace" that year, which made WW unhappy and immediately banned Liang Jiahui. He was abandoned by HK Company and could only set up a stall.
But it's a pity that although it looks like a bull, WW's movies are just bad.
The achievements in commercial films are simply unsightly compared to the mainland. finally came to Zhu Yanping, who was known as "WW Wang Jing", but in addition to relying on the Oolong Courtyard series of fires once, he is now eating his old book or has been making bad movies.
Now ww: They have a natural discrimination against commercial films!
They don't even care about Hollywood commercial movies, and whenever a Hollywood blockbuster is released, they always scoff at it. Not to mention a martial arts film directed by a mainland man, Gu Long was still ww.
This kind of atmosphere naturally spread to the film and television critics and related media practitioners in Taiwan.
To be honest, Zhang Li's roots are in the mainland. The market of HK and WW is not very important to him, and if there is, he doesn't mind, and the box office can be a little more. If not, it doesn't matter. And his concepts and some opinions are destined to be inconsistent with some so-called bigwigs, so he is not bored with himself.
If it weren't for the fact that "Jingwu Heroes" was too popular in WW this time, he wouldn't have come to WW at all.
Apart from a few routine promotional activities, he did not continue to stay at WW at all, let alone communicate with some of WW's so-called peers.
And looking at the entire Chinese film industry, WW movies have long since declined! Some talented or aspiring WW directors have left WW to go to HK or the mainland, or go to Hollywood.
As of May 12, "Jingwu Heroes" is still being screened.
During the period of release in the mainland, it has always occupied the first position at the box office, and there is no opponent to beat.
Now the cumulative box office has reached 660 million!
However, today on the 12th, the Hollywood blockbuster "Fast and Furious 5" will be released in the mainland, this A-class production with an investment of more than 100 million.
I don't know what trouble it will bring to "Jingwu Heroes".
The result is a bit surprising.,The fifth part of the reinforcement on the previous team,Cast,From the old members of the flying car family who have returned further,To the new joining Dwayne Johnson,This is the first time in the series that new and old members have gathered,In terms of plot,There are new scenes-Brazil、New crisis-Deal with the FBI and local gangsters at the same time,The wild dragons overwhelm the head snake,Literary drama、Martial arts drama is fully upgraded。
And the reputation of this movie is also the best among the 5, with a total of $210 million in North America, the highest in all generations. In other countries and regions, it has basically become a sweeping trend, and the global box office has reached 600 million.
As a result, such a menacing movie only won 10.52 million first-day box office on the premiere day (the original box office was 11.872 million), and such a result could not have any impact on "Jingwu Heroes" at all.
Instead, they were crushed under them, and many people were desperate when they saw this situation. Several movies in a row can't affect "Jingwu Heroes", and now such a "Fast and Furious 5" that has swept the world can't do Zhang Li, this is still a fart.
"Is there such a dish in Fast and Furious 5?"
Sitting in a chair in the office, watching the first-day box office of "Fast and Furious 5" come out. If he hadn't confirmed it carefully, he would have called and cursed, could he get the wrong information for such an important matter.
But it's not just the information that Guang Xian brought over, but even the information from Zhong/Ying and Xu Meng is also like this.
This has to make people wonder, is this movie going to hit the streets?
The box office of "Fast and Furious 5" on the first day was only a little more than 10 million, which is still acceptable if it is a domestic movie. But such a Class A big production and a movie that swept the world, if there is only such a box office. Not to mention that it will hit the street, but at least it will be cool.
Compared with several other Hollywood blockbusters released in 11 years, "Fast and Furious 5" is a real dish.
"Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows" had a box office of 39.604 million on the first day. The box office of "Pirates of the Caribbean 4 Stormy Waves" on the first day was 46.574 million. "Kung Fu Panda 2" had a box office of 53.446 million on the first day. The box office of "Transformers 3" on the first day was a perverted 84.715 million.
Compared with the above, "Fast and Furious 5" does not meet Zhang Li's impression at all.
"Am I mistaken? No, the Super 8 has about 2.7 billion, and the Super 7 has about 2.4 billion. ”
Touching the shaggy beard on his chin, a little confused.
Because of the box office of "Jingwu Heroes", the film schedule for "Fast and Furious 5" is still the same as before. Zhongying's plan is to wait for "Fast and Furious 5" to make a decision, who knows that the opponent will fall by itself without making a force, which is embarrassing.
At first, it was regarded as a big problem for the henchmen, but it turned out to be like this.
But no matter what, the threat of Fast & Furious 5 is gone. Judging from the first-day box office of "Fast and Furious 5", if nothing else, then the final box office will be a little better than the results of "New Shaolin Temple".
Now "Jingwu Heroes" is almost 700 million, and "Kung Fu Panda 2" and "Pirates of the Caribbean 4 Stormy Waves" will be released on the 28th and 20th.
This period of time is enough for the box office of "Jingwu Heroes" to rise, and then these two movies will be released.
"Jingwu Heroes" has also reached the end, and the box office of the movie has exceeded 700 million. It can be regarded as reaching Zhang Li's goal, and how much he can get in the future depends on fate, although he knows that he can't reach the box office of 1 billion, but it's still a pity.
