Chapter 189: Box Office
When the theater lit up, it erupted in warm applause!
Ye Sitong couldn't help but let out a long sigh, stood up and applauded, this movie was originally destined for her, but it was Su Qin who really completed the shooting.
This movie is full of Hollywood elements, salvation conspiracy theories plus fight special effects, suspenseful endings, implied insinuations, etc., all of which are the audience's favorites.
In addition to the special effects action is not inferior to foreign countries, the plot is also remarkable, with a discussion of the unknown technology, there is no problem with the quality at all.
Although Ye Sitong is confident in her own movies, she is shaken in the face of a behemoth with this theme.
Not only her, but the reporters and film critics who watched the movie in the theater were not stupid, they were not in vain in the film and television industry for so many years, and the fast reporters had already sent the text messages back to the company, and soon there were brief comments on the affirmation of the movie on major websites.
Almost at the same time, positive reviews of "The Founding Emperor" also appeared on the Internet, both films performed well in their respective subject areas, and reporters and film critics after watching the movie almost unanimously put the controversy of Su Qin and Ye Sitong behind them, and expressed their evaluations of the film in a fair and objective tone.
This led to these two films, almost at the same time, completely detonating the Chinese film market!
After watching the movie, the audience flocked to the major film review platforms for the first time, scoring and commenting on their favorite movies, and then rushed to Su Qin and Ye Sitong's Weibo messages, this dense move led to the major film review platforms and Weibo servers, there was a phenomenon of information retention, a large number of messages are under review, the staff is in a hurry, and they have not had time to review the existing information, and new prompts have been constantly appearing.
After the high-scoring evaluation of the two movies and countless positive real film reviews appeared, the expectations of the audience who did not grab tickets in the first round of pre-sales were completely aroused, and they clinged to their computers and mobile phones to grab tickets, and there are many people who are ready to make a second brush after watching the movie. As a result, as soon as the online purchase channel opened the ticket source, it was emptied in less than a few seconds, and the click-through rate of the page was still increasing at a terrifying value.
This also led to the theater repeatedly adjusting the film schedule, and the rest of the small movies sandwiched between the two giant films were either removed from the shelves in advance, or delayed the schedule, or compressed the schedule, making way for these two films, and even so, both films reached the point where it was difficult to find a ticket.
In recent years, the Chinese entertainment industry has developed rapidly, and the protection of copyright has increased, which has made many piracy basically extinct, Su Qin Ye Sitong's movies only have theater release channels, and online video on demand has not been developed.
The real-time box office on the first day of release came out, Ye Sitong's "Founding Emperor" led "The Investigator" by 50 million, but on the second day, the single-day real-time box office was basically the same, and on the third day, "The Investigator" surpassed "The Founding Emperor" by a slight advantage.
Fans on both sides have gathered great passion and gone all out to promote their idol's movie, and it is already a common phenomenon to brush up and brush three times, this strange phenomenon makes the box office of the movie not weak at all three days after its release, and there is a faint upward trend, which makes everyone in the entertainment industry shocked.
A week later, the total box office of "The Founding Emperor" took the lead in breaking through the 3 billion mark with an advantage of 30 million ahead of "The Investigator", becoming the king of Chinese costume films. Just an hour later, "The Investigator" also exceeded three billion, setting a new box office record for a sci-fi movie.
Just when everyone thought that the next box office would be stable, a new topic spread rapidly on the Internet in a viral way.
The handshake and hug at the premiere of Su Qin and Ye Sitong were turned over by fans on both sides, and this picture of the two top Chinese actresses made fans brush up on the topic of "one vote for respectable opponents".
This result made Su Qin's fans run to Ye Sitong's "Founding Emperor" to cheer, and Ye Sitong's fans also cheered for Su Qin's "The Investigator", and all the fans went from firmly protecting their idols from the beginning to making objective and rational comments after watching both movies.
In the midst of the stunned crowd, the box office of the two movies took off again, and now people who have not seen both movies at the same time are embarrassed to call themselves fans.
This kind of mutual guidance of traffic makes the box office of these two movies like two phoenixes that rely on each other, spiraling up alternately!
Twenty days after its release, the situation began to subside, and "The Founding Emperor" finally broke through the 5 billion light mouth with a slight lead of about 10 million, and the domestic box office of both films has set many records, and it may be difficult to surpass it for a long time in the future.
After all, "The Founding Emperor" has a wider audience in China, "The Investigator" is a science fiction film, and young people like it more, while the acceptance of people over forty or fifty is much smaller.
The two films combined to harvest a total box office of more than 10 billion yuan, which stunned everyone in the film industry!
At this time, Su Qin's reinforcements began to arrive on the battlefield!
"The Founding Emperor" was very popular in China, but in the overseas market, it was limited because of the subject matter.
"The Founding Emperor" can't go abroad, but Su Qin's "The Investigator" can!
Movies full of Hollywood elements have always been a favorite of overseas audiences.
After the two films were released in Europe and the United States at the same time, compared with the coldness of "The Founding Emperor", "The Investigator" ushered in a box office explosion after a short stagnation.
This trend first started from the overseas Chinese crowd, and the high attendance rate attracted the attention of the theater and reporters.
Even with the word-of-mouth promotion after watching the movie, the box office of "The Investigator" rose to the second place in the real-time box office on the third day, and the first place was a Hollywood series, and with the removal of this series, "The Investigator" had no rival and began to sweep the box office market in Europe and the United States.
This film with oriental vision, blending Western culture, coupled with exquisite pictures and special effects, conquered discerning audiences in Europe and the United States.
When the final movie was taken off the shelves, the box office was locked at $500 million, and if it wasn't for the schedule just after a Hollywood blockbuster, I believe the final box office value would have been much higher.
This also makes the total global box office of Su Qin's film go into the history of Chinese films with an astronomical figure of more than 8 billion!
Ye Sitong's film won the domestic box office, and Su Qin's film beat its opponents at the global box office.
