Chapter 1094: Strange Box Office Trend

Yesterday I continued to hang the water, my head was dizzy, and I even forgot to take the chapter name, sorry.

――――――

The unexpectedly impressive box office results in the first week of its premiere made many film companies at home and abroad think that perhaps it was just a flash in the pan.

The fact that a low-budget love movie can achieve such a high box office after its release is completely due to Yang Ming's unstoppable popularity around the world, so it will have such a high box office at the beginning.

I believe that after a week, the box office of this "Ghost Love" will inevitably decline sharply.

After all, this is just a small-budget love movie, no matter how famous and popular Yang Ming is, there is a limit.

This is the common idea of all film companies at home and abroad.

Can a low-budget romance movie go against the sky?

However, the box office data of the second week of "Ghost Love" did not fall but rose slightly, and this strange box office trend surprised all film companies at home and abroad and felt incredible.

How can it be?

Generally speaking, one week after the release of a movie, the box office data in the second week will basically decline to a certain extent, and the vast majority of blockbuster productions are no exception.

It cannot be denied that there are movies that will rise at the box office in the next week, but this kind of movie, whether it is the plot or the production, is the kind of movie that is top-notch, and "Ghost Love" is obviously not among the ranks of this kind of top-made movies.

However, the box office of "Ghost Love" not only did not decline the next week, but increased.

Such a strange box office performance trend is all surprising and wondering.

There's no reason for that!

Many film companies, or so-called movie celebrities, have taken a magnifying glass to carefully study everything about "Ghost Love", wanting to find out what makes this low-budget love movie still break through under the siege of many blockbusters.

This is definitely not the reason for Yang Ming's own strong appeal.

No matter how strong a star is, there is a limit, and no matter how famous he is, if the movie is not good, it is useless.

In the production of blockbuster films, superstar actors are indispensable, but it does not mean that with a big-name cast, it will be successful.

All filmmakers know this.

At this time, many people set their eyes on the theme song "Unrestrained Melody", which suddenly became popular around the world because of "The Love of People and Ghosts".

"The poignant and sacred love story of China, with a classic sad rock soundtrack with strong Western feelings, Yang Ming, a talented and talented director, shows the Eastern and Western cultures to fans all over the world in a perfect way. ”

In an interview with the media, a big-name director in Europe spoke highly of the theme song "Unrestrained Melody" of "People and Ghosts", and also gave great affirmation to Yang Ming's attempt to blend Eastern and Western cultures into one movie, believing that this talented director from China has embarked on a different film path from others.

"He should be a treasure of the world. ”

Hollywood pop diva Afra suddenly appeared after being away from the public for nearly two years, and when Yang Ming was mentioned by reporters, she made no secret of her appreciation and admiration for Yang Ming.

"I never thought that a young man from China could perform Western classic rock music to such an extent, because of "Unrestrained Melody", I fell in love with the movie "Ghost Love" regardless of the same. ”

British rock superstar Benson Senior, as always, is in front of the media to top Yang Ming, he is known as Yang Ming's die-hard fan, although his age and status are much higher than Yang Ming, but there is no doubt that he has been conquered by someone's amazing rock talent.

Last time, Yang Ming held a solo concert in London, and this veteran superstar in the music industry cheered for Yang Ming.

"Overnight, all over the country, all of a sudden, a movie soundtrack "Unrestrained Melody" was played, this is a soundtrack composed by the famous genius Yang Ming for his new film, although this song is English rock, but whether you can understand the lyrics or not, and whether you have seen the movie picture of hugging each other and doing pottery, the intoxication of the leisurely rotation like an old record can definitely still touch your heart. ”

Yang Ming's singing was suddenly calm like water, suddenly like crying like a complaint, suddenly the mountains roared like a tsunami, and suddenly he was hoarse, and he completed a peerless classic in the ups and downs of his feelings. ”

"Once again, he touched the whole world!"

The media in Huaxia also spoke very highly of Yang Ming.

Zhou Qingyun, as a film critic on the same level as the old man Meng Su, also gave Yang Ming a thumbs up on his personal media page and praised "People and Ghosts Are Not Over".

After watching the movie, everyone knows that this movie is actually just an ordinary love story of life and death, but Yang Ming, a genius director, was able to set the development of the story in a unique marginal area - between the yin and yang worlds. The film uses ghosts and ghosts to produce a series of suspense and twists and turns of the plot, the audience is immersed in fantasy and reality, sometimes happy, sometimes sad, sometimes inspired by justice, and finally moved by the protagonist's unswerving love. ”

"The excellent performance of the heroine Su Su is also the key to the success of the movie, the woman who is known as the woman behind Yang Ming has also officially justified herself through this movie, she is not a vase, she does not need to live by anyone, it is her ungrateful performance that embodies the demeanor of a first-class star, which makes the audience intoxicated and deeply moved. ”

Through a smooth narrative, the film interprets a romantic and poignant love story into a heart-wrenching and tear-jerking, and more ingeniously accompanied by melodious music, which is perfectly combined with the story in the film, giving the audience a detached and aesthetic spiritual enjoyment. ”

"This movie seems to have a low production cost, and it can't be compared with those blockbusters with hundreds of millions of budgets, but this small-budget love movie is exquisitely made, surpassing most movies, Yang Ming told everyone in another way that a movie is not a good movie just by piling up money!"

"Serious, attentive, persistent. In fact, this is how this film succeeds. ”

Zhou Qingyun wrote a large number of film reviews praised for "The Love of People and Ghosts", which surprised many domestic filmmakers.

Who doesn't know that this film critic celebrity who is as famous as the old man Meng Su has always been known for his poisonous tongue, and he rarely uses perfect words to describe a movie, the movie reviewed by Zhou Qingyun, the movie that can get such praise, a slap in the face.

Now "The Love of Ghosts" has done it.

Obviously, Yang Ming used this movie to conquer this film critic with tricky tastes.

In the third week, when the box office results came out, the global film market shook again.

"People and Ghosts Are Not Over" box office data of the third week of the United States: 1. 400 million meters, although it fell by 50 million meters compared with last week, but the box office results ranked first, beating the local Hollywood blockbuster that had been dominating the first place before, and this Hollywood blockbuster box office this week was only 1. 200 million meters.

"The Love of People and Ghosts" in the third week of China box office data: 8. 600 million Chinese dollars, once again won the honor of the first weekly box office.

The general trend of the box office data of other countries around the world is not much different from that of China and Mi China, and this week's box office "Ghost Love" is not over compared with the second week, although it has declined significantly, but it still remains above a certain level.

Even many movies that have just been released can't catch up with "Ghost Love".

Especially in the East Asian film market, the box office of "People and Ghosts" in East Asian countries is like that of China, it is always full, and it is difficult to find a ticket, and it may also be affected by local Hollywood blockbusters in the United States, but in the home field of East Asia, "People and Ghosts Are Not Over" has shown an indomitable momentum, sweeping all movies in the same schedule, and winning the weekly box office champion in East Asian countries, no one can shake it.

And "Eagle Strikes the Sky" has been released for a month, and it has long ceived the first throne, and it is unable to launch another impact.

Three weeks after its release, the box office performance of "Ghost Love" has only declined slightly compared with the first week, and this strange box office trend has not been seen for many years.

Many film companies at home and abroad looked at the box office data of "Ghost Love" in amazement, and kept muttering: "It's really alive." ”

However, the theater companies realized that "The Ghost is Not Over" is likely to be the kind of extremely ugly movie, and there must be many fans who watched it once and then watched it a second time.

Through investigation, this is indeed the case.

At least 30% of movie fans just bought tickets again and watched "Ghost Love" again.

In particular, a professional Hollywood film magazine, when doing a questionnaire, asked readers 'Which scene in the movie do you think is the most romantic love moment?', after recovering hundreds of thousands of answers, the winner turned out to be "People and Ghosts Are Not Over", which has only been released for three weeks, in which Yang Ming and Su Su hugged each other affectionately, and under the unrestrained melody, the scene of a deep kiss was considered the most romantic love moment.

When the film magazine published the answer, it immediately caused a global uproar.

Maybe this movie magazine is just a local film journal in the Hollywood entertainment industry in the United States, but its authority is unquestionable, and the questionnaires they collect can directly contact readers and verify the identity of personnel through return visits.

There is no way to deceive.

"Ghost Love", a love movie that has only been released for three weeks, has made countless fans think that the love story in this movie is the most beautiful, romantic, and poignant love movie they have ever seen of all the love movies, which makes other film companies embarrassed.

Especially those who didn't pay attention to Yang Ming's new low-cost love movie before.

"Red Cliff of the Three Kingdoms" swept the global box office market, and after the release of "Ghost Love", it swept the world and earned the tears of fans.

In addition, his two movies are self-directed, acted and written, trinity, which makes his success dyed with an unattainable divine aura.

The name of the demon slowly spread from China and became a special term for the global media to describe this genius from China.

Yanjing Kunlun Hotel.

In a simple, bright and elegantly decorated room, Yang Ming made an appointment to meet with several shareholders and partners of Maoyan Film and Time.com Huaxia Branch.

"Director Xiao Yang, you can't give people a way to live, the special effects blockbuster is so successful, I won't say it, after all, the production cost of 1 billion Chinese yuan is not something that ordinary people can smash, but your low-cost love movie is too demonic, right?" Cao Mengsheng smiled and joked with Yang Ming, "Our Royal Entertainment released two movies in the summer, and you and Shangguan Tian were sandwiched one after the other, and the financial statements of this quarter are estimated to not look good." ”

Although the topic of today's appointment is more serious, everyone is a famous boss in the film industry, and the atmosphere will naturally not be as rigorous as the formal meeting.

Yang Ming shook his head with a wry smile when he heard this, he also knew about the two films released by Royal Entertainment.

It's a bit tragic this summer.

At the beginning, "Red Cliff of the Three Kingdoms" swept all the movies, followed by "Eagle Strikes the Sky" dominating the box office, followed by "Ghost Love" was born, and the strange box office trend squeezed the box office of other movies a lot.

The two films released by Royal Entertainment obviously didn't live up to their expectations at the box office, but to say that they lost money is a bit of a blow.

This year's summer box office is extremely hot, although the two films of Royal Entertainment did not become the top of the box office charts, but the box office alone is enough to recover the cost, and the subsequent various copyright benefits will definitely make Royal Entertainment make a lot of money.

Yang Ming's popcorn network will definitely have to pay a certain amount of real money to buy the online broadcast rights of these two movies.

"Lao Cao, don't be cheap and sell well, cry poor here. "Shangguan Tian ruthlessly uncovered Cao Mengsheng's 'false face' of crying poverty. "You old guy, you will always be like this, if you make a big profit, you will say that you will make a small fortune, and if you make a small profit, you will say that you are selling at a loss!"

- Haha.

In the room, Yang Ming and Wen Jingtao both let out loud laughter.

A few people chatted for a while about the recent summer film market, although Baoli Company and Royal Entertainment failed to kill all sides like Oriental DreamWorks and Huaxia Brothers, but the harvest was not small, but it was not as crazy as the two of them.

The film industry is originally a winner-takes-all place where losers have nothing.

In this kind of blockbuster schedule, it is already a rare thing to be able to make a small profit and get out.

Especially now that we look back at the influence caused by the release of "Red Cliff of the Three Kingdoms" and "Eagle Strikes the Sky", we know how rare it is for them to be able to maintain a certain box office market.

Didn't you see "Liao Zhai" that collided head-on with "Three Kingdoms"?

The box office failed miserably, even if there is follow-up copyright income, it can't make up for the big hole in "Liao Zhai".

That is to say, Xiao's Film Company has a big business, and it doesn't care about this money, otherwise such a big loss will hurt the muscles and bones and hurt the vitality of any film company.

After chatting for a while, Wen Jingtao looked solemn and said, "Mr. Yang, you asked a few of us to come over today, if there is anything, just say it directly!"

Hearing Wen Jingtao's words, Yang Ming's eyes condensed slightly, nodded with a positive color, and said slowly: "I officially asked a few people to come over today, mainly to communicate with several shareholders about the development plan of Maoyan Film and Time.com Huaxia Branch, and now the situation waits for no one!"

The six major companies in the world, both in terms of strength and funds, have officially started to operate, and now through a large number of preferential measures, to a certain extent, it has affected the development of Maoyan Films.

Therefore, Yang Ming invited several shareholders to come over for ventilation.
