The box office was hot on the premiere day of "Red Cliff of the Three Kingdoms", officially kicking off the box office war this summer.

After so many years of cultivating the film market, the summer season has become a must for various film companies, and whenever this moment comes, countless film companies and media will stare at every movie released in theaters.

The first to premiere "The Legend of the Snow Fox in Liaozhai", the box office results on the day of the premiere shocked everyone, just when everyone thought that this film would bring a certain amount of pressure to Yang Ming's new film "Three Kingdoms", who would have thought that in just one day, "Liaozhai" would be a box office data plummeting because of the factor of poor word-of-mouth.

Now it seems that it is difficult to become a roadblock to stop "Three Kingdoms".

And so it is.

Sunday Box Office Stats:

"Three Kingdoms" premiere: 130 million!

"Liao Zhai": 35 million.

No one expected that "Liao Zhai", which was only released on Saturday, had just made a good start with a box office result of 50 million premieres, and only one day later, the box office performance dropped by 15 million.

It's Sunday!

Golden Weekend.

According to past practice, all movies that premiere on Saturday will basically show an upward trend at the box office on Sunday, if there are no accidents.

And the box office performance of "Liao Zhai" not only did not rise, but compared with Saturday, it was 15 million less, a decrease of nearly one-third.

This strange box office performance has surprised countless film companies and media.

Xiao Bufan is too vulnerable, isn't he? Before he said so beautifully, the slogan was so loud, but now he has been beaten to the ground by others, even if he loses, he won't lose like this!

However, the box office results on the premiere day of "Three Kingdoms" were too demonic.

The first local movie with a premiere of over 100 million on the day of its premiere, "Transformers" also had a single-day box office of over 100 million before, but it did not exceed 100 million on the day of the premiere, but with the accumulation of the front, there was a terrifying result of a single-day box office of over 100 million.

Now, with the foundation laid by the previous films, the accumulated word-of-mouth, and the all-star cast gathered in this "Three Kingdoms", the box office results of Yang Ming's new film on the premiere day soared, with a box office data of 130 million, once again refreshing the major records of Chinese films.

As for "Liao Zhai" and Xiao Bufan, there is not much media to pay attention to, and even if there is, it is basically one-sided negative news.

35 million, 130 million!

"Liao Zhai", which is favored by countless people, has a single-day box office data that is almost a fraction of the data of "Three Kingdoms", how can this be compared?

It's not on the same level at all.

Before everyone, everyone applauded the box office of 50 million for the premiere of "Liao Zhai", which is a rare domestic film premiere in recent years, but who would have thought that "Liao Zhai" would be so vulnerable, only one day later, in the prime time of Sunday, only 35 million box office results, which made everyone in the entertainment industry shatter their glasses.

The gap between expectations and reality is too great.

Of course, this is also related to the too shocking box office results of "Three Kingdoms".

130 million, this box office data is too dazzling to put in the box office record on the day of the premiere.

At the same time, news has come from all countries in the Greater China Cultural Zone of East Asia, and after the premiere of "Three Kingdoms", there is no doubt that it will occupy the first place in the box office list of all countries.

The biggest widening of everyone's eyes in the entertainment industry is that "Three Kingdoms" is not only the No. 1 box office result in various countries on the same day, but also the No. 1 weekly box office ranking, and the same is true for the local box office rankings in China.

- Poof!

When many film companies saw this news, they wanted to vomit blood.

"Three Kingdoms" was released on Sunday, the last day of the week, and it took only one day to blow up the box office data of all the movies released this week.

It's brutal.

Where does this leave their faces?

In one day, people occupied the top spot of the weekly box office list with unrivaled momentum, do you want to be so ruthless?

Doesn't that mean that any studio that has a movie in theaters this week is incompetent?

Many media are even in the news, frequently talking about this ranking, and countless film companies are shameless for this.

Many film companies scolded behind their backs, they scolded Oriental DreamWorks, and also scolded "Liao Zhai" for not being angry.

You were released a day earlier, and it was a blockbuster, and the previous propaganda advertisements were everywhere, how did you wither at the critical moment? You can't compete with others, and now they are being dragged into the water and have become the laughing stock of countless media.

On the first day of the new week, countless people were shocked by the box office results of the premiere of "Three Kingdoms", and there was a lot of discussion.

When it came Tuesday, Monday's box office data came out, and everyone was shocked again.

"Three Kingdoms" continued to dominate the list with a single-day box office of 115 million.

And the box office performance of "Liao Zhai" continued to decline: 28 million.

Although the single-day box office data of "Liao Zhai" on Monday exceeded the vast majority of movies released on the same day, in the hearts of everyone, this previously promoted movie is no longer regarded as a threat to "Three Kingdoms".

Because it simply doesn't deserve it.

After Monday's box office data came out, "Three Kingdoms" was still the top of the day's list, and the same was true for other countries in East Asia, and even many media announced that the first position in this week's box office list had been booked by "Three Kingdoms", and there would be absolutely no surprises.

In the face of the terrifying box office results of "Three Kingdoms", countless film companies wailed.

It's so wicked.

It's Monday!

It stands to reason that after the weekend, the box office data of most movies will decline, but the magnitude of the decline is different.

That's right, the box office performance of "Three Kingdoms" has declined compared to the day of its premiere.

But the 115 million box office figure is so dazzling that many film companies don't have any happy thoughts in their hearts.

The single-day box office exceeded 100 million!

For most film companies, the single-day box office of more than 100 million yuan is their biggest pursuit, but when they rack their brains to try to achieve their goals, the box office results of "Three Kingdoms" exceed 100 million in a single day, which is like playing.

This is obviously a big stimulus for many film companies.

In the face of such a terrible box office performance of "Three Kingdoms", some film companies that are preparing to release the film next week immediately convened a high-level meeting to discuss whether to change the plan and postpone the release.

The film market is a winner-takes-all place, losers are defeated, no one wants to be a loser, and now looking at the momentum of the box office results of "Three Kingdoms", it is no longer as simple as losing, it is very likely that there is no return.

A clear example of this is "Liao Zhai".

Many film companies have heard that some theater companies are ready to adjust the scheduling rate of "Liao Zhai" and allocate more theater resources for "Three Kingdoms" screening.

There is no need to investigate, just from the box office results, it can be seen that the attendance rate of "Liao Zhai" must have declined sharply, and it is estimated that it has fallen below 50%.

And the attendance rate of "Three Kingdoms" is obviously much higher than that of "Liao Zhai", especially the evening shows, which are basically full and difficult to find.

This situation is vividly reflected in Maoyan Film's online seat selection and ticket purchase system.

A media specially published screenshots of the Maoyan movie seat selection of the two movies "Three Kingdoms" and "Liao Zhai" in the same scene in the evening in the newspaper of the day.

A screenshot can clearly see that in the seat model of the theater, all the seats have turned red and no seats can be selected, obviously the movie tickets for this show have been sold out and full! This is a screenshot of "Three Kingdoms".

In the screenshot of the cat's eye movie seat selection in "Liao Zhai", most of the seats in the theater as a model are basically white, and only the scattered seats are red, and the attendance rate is extremely different.

At the same time, the attendance of the two movies is very different.

When these two screenshots were published by this media, it caused an uproar in the entertainment industry, everyone had already lost "Liao Zhai", and it was a complete defeat, but no one thought that "Liao Zhai", a blockbuster that everyone had high hopes for, would lose so badly.

It is no wonder that many theater companies are ready to adjust the film schedule rate of "Liao Zhai" and squeeze out more theaters to screen "Three Kingdoms".

Even if it were them, they would do it.

No one wants to live with money.

Even if the Xiao family is strong and has countless wealth, it cannot affect the decision-making of all cinema companies, even if the Xiao family is a shareholder, the board of directors is responsible to all shareholders, and it must not know that it is losing money, but it must be held to the end.

At this time, the box office results of "Three Kingdoms" in the United States and Europe also came out.

"Three Kingdoms" weekend premiere box office: 40 million meters.

Monday's single-day box office: 65 million meters.

When this result was transmitted back to China, countless people were dumbfounded, this is definitely the best box office result achieved by a Chinese film in the United States, and there is no one.

Even the last Hollywood disgraced "Transformers", which was played last time, did not do as well as "Three Kingdoms" in the premiere.

Compared with the box office of "Transformers" premiere in Hollywood at that time, "Three Kingdoms" more than doubled, although the box office of the next day was a little less than that of "Transformers", but you must know that the next day is Monday.

Many people in the local film industry saw the results of "Three Kingdoms", and most of them showed excitement and excitement, applauding "Three Kingdoms" in public.

But it's a pity that although the premiere of "Three Kingdoms" has achieved the best box office results for Chinese films released in the United States, it is still pressed by a movie.

Dimei Pictures' "Pacific Showdown".

Compared with "Three Kingdoms", which is set in Chinese history, "Pacific Decisive Battle" occupies an innate home advantage, both in the movie itself and in external factors.

This is the history of the country itself.

"Pacific Decisive Battle" premiere box office on Saturday: 43 million meters.

Sunday box office: 84 million meters.

Monday box office: 69 million meters.

Like "Liao Zhai", "Pacific Decisive Battle" was also released one day in advance of "Three Kingdoms", Yang Ming got the data that Barber sent back from the United States, a glimmer of light flashed in his eyes, and he looked at this data carefully, and after a while, an unpredictable smile appeared on his face.

It seems that Dimei Pictures' "Pacific Showdown" seems to be a little lacking in stamina.

However, in the past three days since its release, it has been able to achieve such results, and it has pressed "Three Kingdoms" to the end, and it seems that the other party's film is based on the history of World War II in the United States is the most important factor.

After all, for the people of a country, the history of the country has an innate advantage in the choice between the history of another country and the history of their own country.

Yang Ming estimates that if it weren't for the fact that "Three Kingdoms" was designated as a cultural exchange film by the Ministry of Culture, and the cultural department of the government of the United States arranged for many theaters to release "Three Kingdoms" in accordance with the usual practice, maybe the gap between "Three Kingdoms" and the other party's "Pacific Decisive Battle" would not be as simple as a star and a half.

Last time, Barber spent a lot of money, and AMC Cinemas was secretly controlled by Yang Ming and his uncle, and the number of theaters showing "Transformers" was only 1,800.

And this time, "Three Kingdoms" was released, and there were about 2,500 theaters, nearly one-third more than "Transformers".

This is the government's support for local films.

Yang Ming then read the film reviews of "Three Kingdoms" and "Pacific Decisive Battle" in the email sent by Barber.

Although "Three Kingdoms" is a Chinese movie, it has received a lot of praise, and many well-known media have given high marks to this movie.

Although "Pacific Decisive Battle" is a local Hollywood production in the United States, it ushered in a lot of scolding, and many media fired at Dimei Pictures, criticizing Dimei Pictures for spending so much money but making a sleepy bad movie.

"I couldn't find anything that stood out except for the short war scene in the middle and at the end, and even though there were a few bloody big battle scenes, it still didn't lift my spirits. ”

"Who can tell you that this is really a blockbuster film that is claimed to cost 200 million meters? If so, then I can tell you clearly that Dimei Pictures teased all the fans. ”

"The dialogue and depictions of the film are so weak and empty, and another failure is that the music created by the film lacks new musical elements, but it repeats the usual musical style of European films of the same genre, heavy, gloomy, desperate, and then full of hope, so that the whole soundtrack seems rather banal and boring. ”.

Yang Ming looked at the news sent by Barber to some media in the United States in the email, and thought of what Barber said: "Although the film of Dimei Pictures is now ahead of us, this is only temporary, and I believe that the situation will change soon." ”

In this regard, after reading the comments of the media in the United States, he also thought so.

The box office performance of "Three Kingdoms" in the United States was certainly overwhelmed by "Pacific Decisive Battle", but Yang Ming was not too worried, after all, the box office results of "Three Kingdoms" have set a new record for Chinese films in the United States, and he believes that the situation will change soon.

However, what surprised Yang Ming was the box office performance of "Three Kingdoms" in Europe.

There are many European countries, and the box office data statistics are more troublesome, so Manager Liang sent the box office data of the United Kingdom and France.

"Three Kingdoms" UK premiere box office on Sunday: £980,000.

Monday box office: £1.6 million.

"Three Kingdoms" French premiere on Sunday box office: 1.15 million euros.

Monday box office: €2 million.

After all, the film market in the United Kingdom and France is relatively small, but fortunately, Europe is not these two countries, plus the income of other countries, the cumulative is also considerable.

The most important thing is the box office statistics of these two countries, "Three Kingdoms" beat "Pacific Decisive Battle" to become the first in the single-day box office list.
