Chapter 512: It's so fragrant

"Eight Poles" also achieved good box office results on the first day of release, 230 million!

Although it is not as good as "The Wandering Earth", this is also a very good data.

At the same time, the movie that starred fans also got nearly 100 million at the box office, and the box office results of several other films were also around tens of millions.

Roughly calculated, on the first day of the October schedule, the total box office in a single day was nearly 800 million!

This is far beyond the previous box office scale, that is, on this day, the entire film market ushered in a skyrocket.

The reason for the skyrocketing market is that the number of theaters has increased in recent years, the number of moviegoers has increased, and at the same time, there are enough high-quality movies to attract people to the cinema!

Moreover, if you analyze it carefully, the total box office of 800 million still seems to have not fully tapped the potential of the theater.

If the market is calculated by the most perfect standard, with the current number of domestic theaters, the number of seats, the frequency of film playback, and ticket prices and other comprehensive factors, the total single-day box office in the country should be at least more than one billion.

And now, driven by two popular blockbusters, the total box office is only 800 million, which shows that the market is still not saturated.

……

It is true that the market is not saturated.

Many potential audiences of "The Wandering Earth" have no plans to watch this movie for the time being.

For example, there are some science fiction fans, these people should be the most closely related to "The Wandering Earth", but there are many people who are indifferent to it.

Of course, there are many science fiction fans who are looking forward to "The Wandering Earth", and they go to the theater to watch the movie as soon as it is released, but there are still many people who are not interested in it.

"I like sci-fi movies!"

"What? Chinese sci-fi? Forget it. ”

"Tian Ming's books are not bad, some of them have even reached the world's top level, and he is a very good writer. ”

"Ah, he's a screenwriter, wrote the script for The Wandering Earth, but ...... The script is not the same thing, anyway, I don't have much interest......"

There are a lot of sci-fi fans who have this attitude.

There are even quite a few extreme sci-fi fans who refuse to watch any sci-fi movies.

"Hehe, the so-called science fiction movie is just using special effects to deceive a group of fools, and any hard science fiction adapted into a movie will lose its soul......"

There are still a lot of people in this part of the group, and these people either don't notice the film "The Wandering Earth" at all and are not interested in the movie, or they have a deep prejudice in their hearts, and it is difficult to change their impression of Chinese science fiction movies.

Generally speaking, these people are the hardest to change their minds.

But......

If the popularity of "The Wandering Earth" is average, no one around you will mention it, and that's it, but the popularity of "The Wandering Earth" has reached an unprecedented level, even if you don't like to watch movies or Chinese science fiction films, but if someone around you has been talking about this topic and talking about this movie, you will passively accept a lot of information.

Especially if you happen to be a science fiction expert, most people who have watched the film "The Wandering Earth" will come to you to discuss.

Including your friends, your family, your colleagues, your boss...... Even the woman you're courting......

Under this kind of information bombardment, even if you really don't want to watch it, you have to go to the cinema obediently in the end.

……

This is the case with Zhang Hua.

He is a science fiction fan, I don't know how many science fiction works he has read since he was a child, and he has published several articles in some science fiction magazines, but even so, he has little interest in science fiction movies, especially Chinese science fiction.

But on October 1, everyone around him kept mentioning the film "The Wandering Earth" to him.

"Zhang Hua, do you want to watch "The Wandering Earth"? Hey, this film is so good, you must like it, I've finished watching it all, and I want to watch it a second time, do you want to go together?"

"Ah Hua, I heard that there is a movie of "The Wandering Earth" recently, a science fiction film, which is very good, and your father is also very interested, and he has time to help him book a ticket. ”

"My dear, look, what is this? The movie ticket for "The Wandering Earth", this is the roadshow of the main creative team, how about being able to see the director and actors appear, do you like this gift I gave you?"

……

Well, under the bombardment of so many people, Zhang Hua reluctantly took the ticket and decided to take a look at what kind of film this "The Wandering Earth" is, and so many people recommended it.

As a veteran science fiction fan, after hearing the title of "The Wandering Earth", although he was shocked for a moment, then reason told him that this kind of film should be a gimmick, and it is almost impossible for Chinese science fiction to shoot a picture of the earth wandering in space.

Therefore, in Zhang Hua's view, "The Wandering Earth" can only be regarded as a very romantic sci-fi idea at most, and as for the more hardcore sci-fi components, I am afraid it will only be a mess.

In general, he is not optimistic about this film.

Although he eventually entered the cinema on the recommendation of friends and family, he has always been a picky mentality.

He didn't even feel anything about the interaction between the live director, the actors and the audience.

Until the opening of the film.

……

Two hours later, Zhang Hua slowly walked out of the cinema.

He sent a few messages to his girlfriend first.

"Honey, thank you for giving me a movie ticket, the movie is very good, I like it very much!"

"When you come back from your business trip, let's go see it again. ”

Well, the only regret today is that I couldn't watch this film with my girlfriend.

Subsequently, he opened his Weibo and wrote a few words as he walked.

"The Wandering Earth", the hope of Chinese science fiction movies, highly recommended!"

Zhang Hua has published a few articles, and he is also a well-known science fiction fan in the science fiction circle, with more than 100,000 fans on Weibo, and he usually interacts with some science fiction readers.

After posting a short film review of "The Wandering Earth", the number of comments and likes on his Weibo quickly exceeded 100 and 1,000!

Obviously, "The Wandering Earth" is really popular right now, and most people are very keen to discuss this topic.

And the first comment with hundreds of likes under Zhang Hua's Weibo is: Wow, Lao Zhang has not been able to escape the law of true fragrance, hahaha, this is the tenth old-school sci-fi fan I have seen today!

There is more than one person like Zhang Hua, most of these people are die-hard sci-fi fans, and they are not keen on sci-fi movies, but with the popularity of the Wandering Earth, their group has gradually been conquered.

Of course, the charm of "The Wandering Earth" is much more than that, and conquering this potential audience of sci-fi fans is only the simplest step.

Next, it will also attract more groups to the cinema!
