Chapter 1156
After "Robot Wall-E" got a box office of 1 billion in the first week, it collected 700 million again in the second week, and successfully exceeded 2 billion in the third week.
And the point is, the decline is still very healthy!
Movies like "Robot Wall-E" are obviously much more exciting to watch in the cinema than at home.
"Arrow of the Sun" is a bit sad, because the film is too long, so when other movies are released, the attendance rate of "Arrow of the Sun" begins to decline sharply.
In the end, the box office did not even reach 1.5 billion.
It can be said that it is a simple domestic box office, and it is not an exaggeration for Li Zhongzheng to defeat this time.
Of course, "Arrow of the Sun" will not lose money, after all, although the box office in Europe and the United States is not strong, "Arrow of the Sun" in Southeast Asia is still quite marketable.
It's just that compared to the box office of "Robot Wall-E", which is comparable to a money printing machine, it seems a little inadequate.
In terms of peripherals, although "Robot Wall-E" is not as good as Minions and Kung Fu Panda, it is not bad, especially as domestic consumer groups become more and more high-end and tend to brands.
The peripheral sales are still very considerable, coupled with brand authorization, etc., "Robot Wall-E" can almost return to its original cost in terms of peripherals alone.
Not to mention that "Robot Wall-E" is also popular in Europe and the United States, and is known as the best animated film in China, and even called the best animated film of the year.
On the other hand, the success of "Robot Wall-E" has also made Leman's previous plan to launch a training base more hot.
Almost every special training registration is multiplied!
It's just a pity that "Spirited Away" hasn't been able to complete it yet, after all, compared to "Wall-E the Robot", the cartoon of "Spirited Away" needs to do too much work.
"Arrow of the Sun" was reversed by "Robot Wall-E", which was unexpected by many people.
And this also gives many directors a negative example, that is, the length of the film must be controlled, the previous "Mystery of the World Atlantis" can be said to have been a big lesson, and now "Arrow of the Sun" is also a big lesson!
The release of "Robot Wall-E" is nearing the end, and although the final box office did not exceed 3 billion, it also exceeded 2.5 billion.
And then there's the advent of the summer season!
The only successful series of Tianmeng's three series, the second part of "Infinite Reincarnation" will be released in the summer of this year.
It can be said that it is definitely a big hit in this year's summer file.
Another blockbuster film is naturally Lin Xiao's "King Kong", which was written and directed by himself.
For many people, many people were originally hyping Lin Xiao and Li Zhongzheng who is the real first in China, and "King Kong" is their goal, but no one expected that Lin Xiao would use an animated movie to directly knock "Arrow of the Sun" into the dust, and Li Zhongzheng's blockbuster that has been sharpening his sword for five years.
Cao Yang closed his mouth directly.
Moreover, not only that, I heard that Cao Yang also had a big quarrel with Li Zhongzheng.
The reason is very simple, Cao Yang accused Li Zhongzheng of not listening to the advice and making the length of "Arrow of the Sun" so long, which was the reason for the box office slump of "Arrow of the Sun" in the end.
And who is Li Zhong? He is the leading director of Huaguo, so he naturally has his own insistence.
Moreover, Li Zhongzheng has also been patient with Cao Yang's big mouth for a long time, and this time it can be said that it is the outbreak of long-accumulated dissatisfaction.
It is even possible that Li Zhongzheng will leave Zhengyang Film and Television.
Cao Yang panicked at this moment, other film and television giants, maybe losing a director like Li Zhongzheng, it would not hurt the muscles and bones, but a company like Zhengyang Film and Television, Li Zhongzheng is almost all, if Li Zhongzheng leaves, then the result is self-evident.
For this reason, Cao Yang has repeatedly said in the media that his cooperation with Li Zhongzheng is quite pleasant, and it is impossible for Li Zhongzheng to leave Zhengyang Film and Television.
Normally, of course, Li Zhongzheng will not leave Zhengyang Film and Television, after all, he is also a shareholder of Zhengyang Film and Television, but the premise is that he is very comfortable, Li Zhong really hates that his movies are criticized, he may not be strong enough in other aspects, but in terms of movies, he will never allow others to interfere.
And Cao Yang obviously expressed his dissatisfaction with Li Zhongzheng's insistence, which naturally made Li Zhongzheng dissatisfied.
And in all fairness, if "Arrow of the Sun" had not encountered an animated movie like "Robot Wall-E" in the same schedule, or such a signature animated movie, such a classic animated movie, "Arrow of the Sun" would not really be like it is now.
Many times this is the case, once the audience has a choice, then you have a little flaw, which will be infinitely magnified.
In Li Zhongzheng's view, this is completely caused by Cao Yang's unbridled words.
After all, at the beginning, "Robot Wall-E" was not scheduled for Children's Day, and there was not even any news.
But after Cao Yang picked up the shirt, "Robot Wall-E" was announced to be released on June 1st, and if you want to say that it has nothing to do with Cao Yang, you don't believe it when you kill Li Zhongzheng.
Many times, if a movie wants to be a big hit, it doesn't just depend on the quality of the movie, the fame of the director, the fame of the actors, and the publicity.
It also depends on luck, looks at competitors.
If the competitor is too strong, it doesn't even have to be too strong, as long as it is stronger than you.
When the time comes, the audience will naturally know how to choose.
And "Arrow of the Sun" is definitely the film that Li Zhongzheng attaches the most importance to, five years, a person can have several five years, Li Zhongzheng's ambition is naturally quite large, of course he hopes that he can make a difference in word-of-mouth and box office.
As a result, although the reputation of professional film critics is good, the reputation of the audience is not so good.
And the result of all this is that "Arrows of the Sun" itself is not good? Or is the film too long? No, at least not all.
The real reason is that in Li Zhongzheng's view, it is because of "Robot Wall-E", because "Robot Wall-E" itself is an animated film called a classic, and secondly, the film length of "Robot Wall-E" is shorter than that of normal movies, and this forms a stark contrast.
The point is that the box office and attendance of "Robot Wall-E" are no worse than "Arrow of the Sun", and as a result, theaters naturally prefer short and concise movies like "Robot Wall-E" to stinky and long movies like "Arrow of the Sun".
Yes, compared with the one-sided praise of "Robot Wall-E", the reputation of "Arrow of the Sun" can be said to be Wang Xiaoer's New Year, and every year is not as good as a year.
Especially after the release of other movies, the advantages of "Arrow of the Sun" are gone, after all, although Huaying can tilt some resources, but the time is also limited.
And Huaying is not a monopoly now, other private theaters pay more attention to interests.
Compared to "Arrows of the Sun", it is obvious that "WALL-E the Robot" brings them more benefits, so they naturally know how to choose.
