You must know that in 2009, the No. 1 movie on the North American box office list was "Transformers 2", and its total box office was only $390 million.

According to the current exchange rate of 4.3 to 1 between Huaxia and the US dollar (the purchasing power of Huaxia currency is higher than that of RMB), the total box office of this movie is equivalent to about 1.6 billion Huaxia yuan.

If "The Great Cause of the Founding of the People's Republic" can maintain the box office level of 81 million on the first day.

Then it only takes 20 days to get the same total box office revenue of "Transformers 2", which is equivalent to the first box office in North America.

Of course, it is impossible for "The Great Cause of the Founding of the People's Republic" to maintain such a high box office every day for 20 days.

But even if this kind of box office performance can only last for a week, the final total box office of "The Great Cause of the Founding of the People's Republic of China" is estimated to be about 800 million.

That's about $200 million at the box office.

Even in the North American film market, there have only been more than 60 films that have grossed more than $200 million.

Now that the Huaxia Film Market has only been open for more than ten years, it is possible to have such an amazing box office movie!?

Seeing the first-day box office performance of "The Great Cause of the Founding of the People's Republic", all Hollywood film companies coveted the Chinese film market.

Their attention to the Chinese film market has almost risen to the highest level in history of Hollywood's attention to the foreign film market.

On the second day of the release of "The Great Cause of the Founding of the People's Republic", the film once again won a single-day box office score of 78 million on the same day.

Hua Na Films and Paramount Pictures jointly announced to major media in China.

On the day of their film's release in Huaxia, the film's main cast will all rush to Huaxia for the premiere.

As soon as this news was announced, the Chinese entertainment industry once again experienced a tsunami-like shock.

You must know that in the past, the premieres of Hollywood movies held in China were always attended by only a few unknown supporting roles in the movies.

But now, Hollywood's top movie stars are suddenly coming to China to attend the premiere.

For many fans of these Hollywood stars in China, the shock and attractiveness of this year's summer Hollywood movie premieres have undoubtedly increased countless times.

The movie war in the 2009 Chinese summer file has just begun, and it has already entered a white-hot stage.

……

On June 20, "Terminator of the Devil 2018" was filmed by Hua Na and held a grand premiere in the largest theater in Kyoto.

Although this premiere was not held in a large stadium like "The Great Cause of the Founding of the Nation".

But because the film's leading actors Christian Bale and Worm Worthington all came to China to attend the premiere.

Even the Hollywood action superstar Schwarzenegger, who only showed up in the movie, also said hello to all the audiences in China at the premiere by connecting live.

Such a star-studded Hollywood premiere can be said to be unique in the history of Chinese films.

After the movie began to be screened, in "Devil Terminator 2018", in addition to the exciting visual effects that Hollywood is used to, before the end of the movie, there was a plot in which the actor was saved by the Chinese.

This is added by Hua Na for the Chinese market.

Although this plot actually does not have any effect on the whole movie, it makes Chinese audiences feel extremely novel and happy.

There is a deformed sense of national pride that the motherland is strong and that big Hollywood companies have to take care of our preferences, and the hearts of the audience are welling up.

By the next day, this mediocre action film, which failed at the box office in the North American film market, received an astonishing box office of 69 million on the first day of its release in China.

Hollywood's promotional strategy in China has clearly achieved amazing results.

At the same time, "The Great Cause of the Founding of the People's Republic", which has been in theaters for eight days, has received an astonishing box office of 420 million.

Although this epic film did not maintain an astonishing first-day box office result of 8,000 per day, it also had an astonishing box office performance of more than 50 million per day on average.

It's a pity that with the release of "Terminator of the Devil 2018", the audience of "The Great Cause of the Founding of the Nation" has obviously been diverted.

Starting on June 21, "The Great Cause of the Founding of the Nation" only received more than 41 million at the box office, a drop of nearly 20% from the previous day's box office.

Since then, the film's box office has been declining.

On the contrary, "Terminator 2018", a mediocre Hollywood action movie, has been rising at the box office.

In the three days of the first week of release, it won 230 million at the box office.

With such a large investment and such an amazing cast of actors, "The Great Cause of the Founding of the People's Republic" seems to be still a little powerless in front of Hollywood blockbusters.

"The Great Cause of the Founding of the People's Republic" is the main theme movie, and the blandness and didactic meaning of the movie plot are still relatively heavy.

After the large-scale publicity in the early stage and the aura brought by the huge star cast in the movie dissipated, the audience slowly began to lose.

At the same time, the evaluation of this movie by professional film critics and media, and the evaluation of this movie by netizens on the Internet, have also formed a great polarization.

"The Great Cause of the Founding of the People's Republic" has carried out a bold market-oriented operation in distribution and publicity, because of the appeal of stars and the publicity in place, the number of copies is unprecedented, and it is determined to set a new box office record for domestic films in Chinese film history. ——"Huaxia News"

"The Great Cause of the Founding of the People's Republic" has different ways of interpretation for audiences of different ages, with older audiences paying more attention to the historical plot it involves, while younger audiences pay more attention to the many stars in the movie, and call their behavior of counting the number of stars in the movie "counting stars". ——"Huaxia Entertainment Weekly"

The new benchmark of the main theme film - "The Great Cause of the Founding of the People's Republic", a super main theme blockbuster that the people have been looking forward to, was finally released in China on the evening of June 12. I think that at this point, the quality of the film itself is no longer important, and the most noteworthy thing is the market-oriented means of the film from preparation, shooting, publicity, and distribution. ——"China Film Times"

……

Obviously, all traditional media have avoided the quality of the film itself, and they have praised the operation and operation methods of "The Great Cause of the Founding of the People's Republic" in terms of commercial operation, believing that this film has explored a new path for the future development of the main theme film.

But netizens are obviously not so friendly to the film.

In the Huaxia Garlic Clove Film Review Network, the score of this movie is only 6 points, and fans' evaluations of this movie are basically relatively negative.

"I spent money on tickets just because it was easier to count stars in the cinema. Other than that, this movie is nothing good. ”

"It's a very wonderful movie, with a deep theme and a lot of meanings, and you can get at least the following keys to victory: 'Whoever wins the meeting wins', 'The one who holds the conference can do it', 'As long as you can do it better than me, you can easily beat me' and so on. ”

"The film creates a twisted and short-lived subgenre that serves a practical effect in the short term – the main theme spectacle film. Take advantage of the nature of gifts to gain hegemony in distribution and screening arrangements, and obtain a large number of group ticket purchase resources. ”

"Except for relying on government resources and gathering a huge cast of stars, this film has no bright spots, and it is still a very boring traditional theme movie. Compared with "Life is Beautiful", I can only see emptiness and boredom from "The Great Cause of the Founding of the People's Republic". ”
