Chapter 158: Hot start
Mid-Autumn Festival and National Day files, the first round of fighting, "Wolf Warrior" won.
"My Kung Fu Girlfriend" and "Anti-Drugs" were naturally unwilling, and immediately increased publicity. After all, they are not very different from each other.
What's more, the box office of "Wolf Warrior" on the first day may not be related to the film itself.
Mu Chen and Mu Ze, even Li Hongbin and Zhang Yao, are not low in popularity and popularity, and their box office appeal is naturally not weak.
Especially the fans of the two brothers, Mu Chen and Mu Ze, are extremely huge.
The box office of more than 70 million, in the eyes of many people, I am afraid that most of it comes from those fans.
"Wolf Warrior" is not invincible.
As for the films other than these three, they have become cannon fodder, and not many people pay attention to them.
What is the word-of-mouth, what is the box office? Everyone's eyes are on these three films.
Of course, there is also an element of propaganda power in this.
However, the box office on the first day will not be determined by the box office in the end. Moreover, who will become the biggest winner in this schedule will inevitably appear in these three films.
It's just that the winner was decided quickly.
As soon as the box office came out on the second day, "Wolf Warrior" locked in the win.
Saturday, September 29.
The single-day box office of "Wolf Warrior" has increased unabated, reaching more than 94 million, almost breaking 100 million. The total box office has also reached more than 170 million.
broke 200 million in three days, and there is no suspense.
"My Kung Fu Girlfriend" is still in second place, but the box office has not increased, only 69 million!
Although "Anti-Drugs" is still below "My Kung Fu Girlfriend", the box office has increased from the first day, reaching more than 68 million.
Perhaps, tomorrow will be able to counterattack and win the second place.
It's a win of word-of-mouth.
Although "My Kung Fu Girlfriend" is not a bad movie, in terms of word-of-mouth, it is indeed inferior to "Anti-Drugs", if it were not for "Wolf Warrior" to take advantage, word-of-mouth may not be comparable to "Anti-Drugs".
Sunday, September 30.
On this day, it was revealed that many theaters wore military uniforms and chartered the news of watching "Wolf Warrior".
The troops organized to watch "Wolf Warrior"!
This is the rhythm of the film strongly recommended and substantially supported by the military!
As soon as this news came out, the popularity of "Wolf Warrior" set off a climax again.
According to the box office statistics on the third day, the single-day box office of "Wolf Warrior" increased again, directly breaking through the 100 million mark, with a total box office of 270 million!
And "Anti-Drugs" counterattacked and won the second position. However, the single-day box office has decreased, to just over 61 million.
The box office of "My Kung Fu Girlfriend" fell below 60 million in a single day, and the decline has been revealed.
"Wolf Warrior" was released, and the publicity was still the same, but Mu Chen did not participate in the publicity anymore.
On the second day of the release of "Wolf Warrior", he went to Xiangjiang and got busy for "Infernal Affairs".
Of course, the box office of "Wolf Warrior" is still concerned.
Such a box office is undoubtedly beyond Mu Chen's expectations.
With today's momentum, it doesn't seem to be difficult to break the 500 million mark.
The box office of this film will obviously be much higher than the original.
Of course, the two versions are released in different worlds, and the markets are not the same.
Comparatively speaking, the market in this world is a little better than the market when the original version was released. What's more, Muchen's version is based on the original version and has made many breakthroughs. If the box office is not higher than the original, it is a failure.
Obviously, Mu Chen succeeded.
The film exploded at the box office.
It exceeded 200 million in three days and 300 million in four days.
On the fourth day, although the box office fell below 100 million, it also had a box office of more than 90 million, and the cumulative box office was as high as more than 360 million.
On the fifth day, the box office exceeded 400 million.
On the sixth day, the box office was nearly 500 million.
On the seventh day, the box office exceeded 500 million, reaching more than 570 million.
On the eighth day, the Mid-Autumn Festival and National Day holiday ended, and the box office fell seriously, and the single-day box office almost fell below 50 million. However, the total box office still exceeded 600 million.
As for "My Kung Fu Girlfriend" and "Anti-Drugs", the total box office at this time was less than 400 million. "My Kung Fu Girlfriend" is even in the early 300 million, and it is almost hopeless to break 400 million.
The two films were severely suppressed by "Wolf Warrior".
has been released for more than a week, and "Wolf Warrior" still maintains the single-day box office champion, and the popularity is still the same.
On the ninth day of the release of "Wolf Warrior", a new film was released, but it still did not squeeze "Wolf Warrior" off the single-day box office champion.
The release of the new film has limited impact on "Wolf Warrior".
At least, the schedule of "Wolf Warrior" has not decreased much. When it comes to the impact of "Anti-Drugs", breaking 400 million has become less certain.
Whether it can break 400 million depends entirely on whether the reputation of the new film can make this film strong.
"Wolf Warrior" is still on the air, but the news that Mu Chen's new film is about to start suddenly came out.
At this time, "Wolf Warrior" has occupied the top spot in the single-day box office list for half a month, with a total box office of nearly 800 million.
Perhaps, the decline has been revealed, and one billion is hopeless, but the box office of 900 million can still be rushed.
Although this is not the highest-grossing film of the year, it is eye-catching enough.
This film also brought extremely high profits to Dawn Film and Television.
Mu Chen's new film has naturally attracted the attention of countless people.
Xiangjiang filming, starting to worship God, this is not superstition, but a habit, a tradition, or an expectation.
This time when the machine was turned on, Mu Chen did not keep a low profile.
After all, "Infernal Affairs" is a co-production, not just what he wants.
He needed to consider what Gu Wei and the others meant.
A grand start-up conference was held. This is what Gu Wei meant, and Mu Chen did not resist this.
He actually knows that it is impossible for this film to be low-key.
Just take a look at the cast and you'll see it clear.
From the male protagonist to the male supporting role, they are all big-name actors in Xiangjiang.
However, at the beginning of the press conference, those media reporters asked not Liu Guohua, Gu Daohui and others, but Mu Chen.
"Why did Director Mu suddenly come to Xiangjiang to shoot a Hong Kong film? Do you want to use this film to reverse the current downturn in the Hong Kong film market? Where does your confidence come from?"
The last time the Xiangjiang media reported it, there was a lot of turmoil.
For this film, there are naturally a lot of rumors.
Gu Wei and others still have great ambitions for this film.
Reverse the downturn in the Hong Kong film market, and even save Hong Kong Films.
These words were exposed by the Xiangjiang media, but it was not because of them.
"I make any film for one reason: I like it, and because I like it, I make it. Mu Chen smiled and said, "As for whether this film can reverse the downturn in the current Hong Kong film market, it depends on whether the audience gives face." All I can do is make this film right. ”
"Mr. Gu, why is it Mu Chen who directs "Infernal Affairs" instead of the director of Xiangjiang Films? For example, Lin Dong!" A Xiangjiang reporter said, "Could it be that Xiangjiang Films should be saved by a young director from the mainland?"
"If Hong Kong Films wants to reproduce the glory of the past, then it has to rely on the huge market in the mainland. Gu Wei said, "Director Mu is a talented director in the mainland, and his ability to grasp the context of the mainland market is far better than that of Xiangjiang filmmakers. This can be seen from his two films "Jingwu Heroes" and the still popular "Wolf Warrior". ”
And this film was created by Director Mu at the invitation of Andy. The screenwriter is Director Mu, and the director is naturally him. No one is better suited to direct this film than him. Gu Wei continued, "I believe that Director Mu can inject new blood into Xiangjiang Films." ”
