Chapter 1198: 100 Million a Day!!

In Asia, the main point of the Kirin Group is to be on the stars, but in the United States, the Kirin Group also has a blockbuster movie released.

It is the much-anticipated "The Lion King".

"The Lion King" began a large-scale advertisement in May, making almost everyone in the United States aware of it.

But what people pay the most attention to is not "The Lion King" itself, but a gamble around "The Lion King".

When Yin Jun announced the production of "The Lion King", he once made a bet with Hollywood reporters that if the global box office of "The Lion King" did not reach $800 million, then he would quit Hollywood.

Things haven't been around for the past two years.

And when "The Lion King" began to be promoted on a large scale, that group of reporters did a good job of adding fuel to the fire, making "The Lion King" even more popular, and making the audience pay attention to this matter.

This is good, when Tang Shuxuan called, he bluntly said that they contributed at least 20 million US dollars in advertising effects.

In mid-June, students are on vacation, and Disney's efforts to cultivate the children and youth market for so many years have also shown its power at this time.

Lianyi Pictures and Disney worked together to win 3,860 screens in North America, and Europe and South America combined to more than 6,000 screens, plus Asian countries and regions, the entire number has increased to 10,000!

With such a high number of films, the box office results brought by the first day are also extremely amazing.

First of all, it received $18 million at the box office in North America, which was higher than the "Terminator" released in April, and quickly set a new first-day box office record in North America.

Europe and South America jointly contributed a total box office of 25 million US dollars, and Asia was also an unexpected surprise, led by the film market led by Japan and South Korea, "The Lion King" won a super high box office of 20 million US dollars, which also surpassed the United States, the world's largest box office.

As a result, the global box office of "The Lion King" reached an astonishing $63 million on the first day!

As soon as the data came out, it immediately shocked film companies and theaters around the world!

The most important thing is not that the box office is super high, but that the word-of-mouth of "The Lion King" is unprecedentedly explosive!

Judging from the vane of the world movie box office in North America, a total of 83 film critics yesterday gave A-grade evaluations and recommendations in 73 newspapers across the United States, of which 55 were super highly recommended!

Only 3 critics gave it a B rating, but also said that it was a good movie, at least for children and young people.

The last time they scored so hard in a movie was back in ".".

And how high is the box office of ".", so you don't need to remind you, right?

Film critics can influence a lot of audiences, but the real reactions of the audience are even more infectious.

"Wow, Simba is amazing! We'll go back to see it when Daddy goes on vacation next time!"

"Allen watched the first game yesterday, I watched the second game, but we both felt like we hadn't seen enough. But when we go to the queue again, we can't buy tickets for the day!"

"I took my son and wife to see it, but I was the first to cry......!

"Oh my God, this Disney cartoon is awesome! My girlfriend is crying!"

"Every animal in this is so distinctive, Disney is so attentive!

"It's an animal version of The Prince's Revenge, but there's a lot to learn from it. Family affection and love, this is the eternal theme! The story written by Mr. Yin Jun is so powerful that I, a man in his forties, can't help but want to cry. ”

"You people are stupid, what is the most enjoyable thing about watching "The Lion King"? It's the IMAX version! Believe me, you went to see it, and you definitely want to watch it three more times! I'm coming to line up for the night in the early hours of this morning!"

β€œβ€¦β€¦β€

A large part of the success of "The Lion King" in the previous life is because "The Lion King" is a family-friendly movie.

When the children go to watch, they will at least get an adult ticket, and many of them are even accompanied by their parents.

Everyone knows that children are in nature to show off.

When the children play in the community and in the park the next day, they must be talking about "The Lion King", and people are happily talking about the plot, but you don't know anything, isn't it a little embarrassing?

So the children who haven't seen it will definitely pester their parents to want to see it.

It's not just children, the template of "The Lion King" is actually very similar to the template of another animation company later.

This company is called Pixar.

Pixar is an animation company, but people's animations are not for children at all, but for adults.

It is not easy for children to understand, but adults look at it with a sigh of emotion.

This also makes Pixar's animation box office not so high, but people do their own thing, just to do it.

Of course, Pixar still has a reputation.

The slogan "Pixar must be a high-quality product" is not something that any company can call it, and it has been recognized all over the world.

Otherwise, do you think Disney is so good, let them toss, regardless of time and performance?

Disney is also very smart and has built a strong reputation for its company, which is obviously a good deal.

Okay, that's the topic.

"The Lion King" is a "Prince's Revenge", and this story can be felt and liked by adults.

Although it's an animation,It's definitely not naΓ―ve.,Especially not like the Chinese animation after 00 years.,On the contrary,There's a lot of life philosophy in it.。

In the past ten years, Yin Jun watched it three times, but each time he had different feelings, and when he was writing the screenplay, he wrote these feelings into it, so it also made many adults like it.

Adults take the initiative to contribute to the box office, which is naturally one of the necessary elements for the success of "The Lion King", otherwise just by looking at children, no matter how good a movie is, it will be at most the box office level of Pleasant Goat and Bear Er.

And the selling point of "The Lion King" has another - the IMAX version!

The IMAX version of the movie has been seen by many Americans.

At the time of "Terminator" in April, many people lined up day and night to watch an IMAX version, just because the effect of the giant screen was so amazing and so cool to watch!

"Terminator" has also been in the IMAX hall of the Kirin Cinema Line, and it has always been able to maintain an attendance rate of about 8%, which is still added to the weekday morning, if you only count the evening and weekends, it will be full at any time.

As soon as the IMAX version of "The Lion King" came, "The Terminator" was temporarily suspended, and all of them were changed to "The Lion King".

This time, it's not just the adults who want to see the IMAX version, but the children are even more excited to see how these giant screens that have been blown up by the adults are different from the ordinary version.

As a result, as soon as the children left, their eyes and mouths were wide open throughout the whole process, and they were completely shocked.

Then they went out, but they didn't go home, and at least five or six out of ten begged their parents to go and see it again, and watch it again!

But the IMAX movie theater is only 100 screens, and there are only 150 seats for each show, so many children and parents, of course, can't be satisfied, let alone young couples to watch together.

Wu Siyuan is a typical Xiangjiang businessman.

Seeing that "The Lion King" was so popular, he immediately set the minimum ticket price during the day at 20 yuan, and the three performances at night directly became 25 yuan a piece, which was about 20% higher than the ticket price of "Terminator".

Then, Wu Siyuan also announced that because everyone was too enthusiastic, the IMAX theater would open an additional midnight show after 12 o'clock, and if there were fans in need, they could watch it at this time.

His words have not completely fallen, and the fans who got the news from the ticket window immediately snatched up the tickets for the midnight movie show that day.

That's it, everyone is still calling to suggest, saying that it can be held again from 2 to 4 o'clock in the morning, anyway, we adults don't have to worry about sleeping, we can stay up late.

After thinking about it repeatedly, Wu Siyuan still rejected such a proposal.

After all, watching a movie too late will have scruples in many aspects, and it is not a very normal way, it is already risky to open a show at midnight, and no matter how much it is, it will not be worth it.

With a hundred screens and a turnover of $2.3 million a day, he is already very satisfied.

That's the equivalent of a normal turnover of hundreds of screens - after all, other people's attendance rates don't reach 100% these days.

……

With the help of such favorable conditions, it is not surprising that the North American box office on Saturday the next day was 25.5 million, breaking the box office record of "The Terminator" again and setting a new North American box office record.

On this day, the global box office reported more than 100 million US dollars, which shocked countless people, rejoiced and ...... Despair!

Filmmakers across Asia, as well as fans of Yin Jun around the world, are all rejoicing and rejoicing that Yin Jun's film has set a record.

A person's success is not much to be proud of.

But a person who has been successful consistently, and who has shown it in the form of record-breaking success, can really be called a genius!

Those who are looking forward to Yin Jun getting out of Hollywood, and those who are prejudiced against Xiangjiang filmmakers, hold their heads and can't believe it, why did a movie rush to the box office of $100 million in one day!?

How many movies, even if they are released for several months, will not reach the box office of 100 million US dollars!

Well, now it's a day!

The global box office totaled almost $170 million in two days, so is it far from the $800 million global box office that Yin Jun said?

Even the most idiotic people already know that the box office of $800 million is not the end of "The Lion King" at all!

The goal of "The Lion King" should be ".", the world's first!
