In 2019, the box office on the first day of the Lunar New Year exceeded 1.4 billion, a record high.

It was not until the release of the Spring Festival file "Three-Body Problem 2" in 2021 that this record was refreshed, increasing the daily box office data of Chinese films to 1.7 billion.

Among them, "Three-Body Problem 2", which accounts for 71% of the film schedule, won a total of 1.33 billion box office on the first day of release, nearly 200 million US dollars. The industry insiders and movie fans who watched it were all dumbfounded.

Because of the cold winter of the film and television industry in recent years, how many celebrities and big names have not filmed. Looking at the films with a good lineup, the box office was only hundreds of millions when they were released.

This film is good, 1.3 billion in a single day, and those comparisons are almost out of the solar system!

In the next day, the first-day box office data of "Three-Body Problem 2" around the world have been released, and in North America, it broke the single-day record of $156.7 million set by "Avengers 4" and won 167 million.

Such market performance has made some North American protectionists extremely angry. scolded the six major Hollywood indisputables, making Chinese films rage all over the world.

However, other Chinese-language films often do not perform well in overseas markets, but this "Three-Body Problem 2" is really raging around the world.

has successively broken the single-day box office records in Japan, South Korea, Europe, Australia, South America and other places, if there is any film market that cannot be broken, it is only the Middle East and India.

It's hard to talk about the Middle East in detail, the national football team is sinking there, and it's normal for "Three-Body Problem 2" to not be able to win the market.

In India, it is the same language, religion and other reasons. They even have 17 official languages, and the demand for watching movies is extremely segmented and fragmented, coupled with low ticket prices, the construction of theaters cannot keep up.

"Three-Body Problem 2" in the Indian market, there are only 2D and 3D versions, and it is not on the VR version at all.

Even so, the global box office figures on the first day of release combined amounted to a staggering $618 million.

Among them, Chinese mainland contributed the most, followed by the North American market and Europe again. Japan, South Korea, Southeast Asia, and Southeast Asia are actually not much less than Europe, and Australia and South America are the icing on the cake.

On the evening of the second day of the first year, after Longlin Pictures summarized the data, they were all happy, but they did not release it as soon as possible, but transmitted it to CCTV.

On the morning of the third day of the Lunar New Year, "Morning News of the World", the host male: "Cultural New Year, watching movies is also a must for many people during the Spring Festival!"

Hostess: "In this year's Spring Festival, six movies were released simultaneously on the first day of the Lunar New Year, and the box office on that day exceeded 1.7 billion, setting a new high in domestic single-day box office!"

Host male: "This year's Spring Festival, the highly anticipated "Three-Body Problem 2" by the audience has unsurprisingly achieved a dominant situation. Not only in the mainland market, it achieved a good result of 1.33 billion yuan on the first day, but also in the global market, won a terrifying data of 618 million US dollars in a single day, setting a Guinness record!"

……

As soon as the news came out, it instantly shook the whole network.

Coupled with the promotion of the network marketing department of Longlin Pictures, the topic of #"Three-Body Problem 2" single-day global box office of $618 million# was pushed to the top of the hot search headlines.

The degree of discussion and search volume of its topics far exceed that of previous celebrity divorces, derailments and other topics, not to mention that there are more than them combined, and it is not much worse.

Xinlang Weibo, which once claimed to be able to deal with eight celebrities derailing at the same time, collapsed again unsurprisingly.

Fortunately, there is also a circle of friends, and there is also a comic network.

The former, "spiritual shareholders" are everywhere, not to mention all kinds of Amway recommendations, and from time to time they refresh the latest box office records, watching it break 2 billion, 3 billion.

On the comic, it is boiling and the sky is boiling!

It's different from the mainstream media here, so it doesn't matter if you Lu Lin is a big director or not, what is the groundbreaking significance of the success of "Three-Body Problem 2"!

There are only two types, either praise or scold.

As a result, the Douban score of "Three-Body Problem 2" is only 7.2 points, which is much lower than the previous work. The star distribution map of the scoring also shows a strange "E-shape", with a lot of five-star and one-star ratings, and relatively few two, three, and four stars.

A one-star netizen commented: "The appearance of "Three-Body Problem 2" has a disastrous impact on the art of film. It abandons the great montage technique and throws the film back into the era of long takes. Let the moral of the film no longer be profound, lose its artistry, and become a long video ...... with only narrative function!"

Yin Sisi, a film critic who specializes in Hei Lulin, posted on Douban: "In terms of story structure and character building, this is an extremely bad movie, the protagonist is inexplicable, pushing mankind into the abyss again and again. After watching the whole movie, none of the characters are likable.

In addition, the so-called rotating VR seat is okay lying down, but the immersive VR headset is really not good, and it is not good to get dizzy after watching it!"

And this kind of movie review, there are still many people who like it and reply in support.

If you just look at the ratings on the comic network, I still think that "Three-Body Problem 2" is not very popular!

It can be used on ticketing websites such as Taopiaopiao and Meituan, with scores of 9.7 and 9.6 respectively.

The box office data is soaring, heading towards breaking the global box office record of "Avatar".

The film has reached this point, and there is no need to bother much about publicity, just sit back and wait for the money to be collected.

But Lu Lin is still very busy, all kinds of interviews are continuous, and dinner invitations are endless.

On the fourth day of junior high school, he was interviewed by "Focus Interview" again.

After all, it is the world's first real VR feature film, and the box office reputation is great.

went to the CCTV studio to chat, and when I walked out, I met Yang Dongsheng, the chief director of the Spring Festival Gala, who was a calm and low-key middle-aged man, with long hair tied up, which looked very eye-catching.

"Congratulations, Director Lu, I watched "Three-Body Problem 2", the last scene is so shocking, we are all proud of you in the Chinese film industry!" Yang Dongsheng said when he shook hands.

Lu Lin hurriedly smiled: "Director Yang is too famous!"

Yang Dongsheng continued: "Director Lu, are you interested in participating in the Lantern Festival Gala, your fans, but you have been calling for you to go to the Spring Festival Gala. Please don't come, it's a lot of pressure on us!"

The Spring Festival Gala program group invited Lu Lin once. After finding an excuse not to go, people never invited again.

"I'm going to make a movie, and I don't know what to perform!"

Yang Dongsheng saw Lu Lin and said with a smile: "You can sing with Jing Yan, or have a kung fu performance with Wu Jing, they all say that you are the number one kung fu master in China, Director Lu is so young, don't keep thinking about it!"

Lu Lin thought about it, around the fifteenth day of the first lunar month, it was not a big deal. People sincerely invited, it is better to go once, and said, "Okay, then it will be decided first!"

"Okay, I'll go back and call the assistant to your company, and then talk about the relevant process!"

In fact, this person is very busy, and he came here on a special trip, and it was not a chance encounter at all.
