Before coming to the Magic City, if you want to say how much box office Matthew expects "Fast and Furious 5" to get, of course, he hopes that it will be one billion soft girl coins! If you talk about how much the single-day box office of the opening painting can reach, he hopes for 100 million soft girl coins.

If you push back a few years, the single-day box office of the popular movies here is not a matter at all, and there seem to be a few of them that harvest three or four billion soft girl coins a day, and the annual box office champion is not about 2 billion, so I am embarrassed to come out to meet people.

It's only 2011, and while the number of theaters and screens is growing at a terrifying rate of 15 percent per month, it's not yet as ubiquitous as it was later.

Think about it, in the small county where he worked, within a radius of seven or eight kilometers, there were five movie theaters, and all of them were multi-cinema cinemas, and the construction speed of the cinemas was really incredible.

The population advantage here is huge, even if there is a natural disadvantage in terms of total box office statistics because of the exchange rate, but Matthew firmly believes that this side will definitely be the world's largest film market in the future.

As long as the box office volume is large enough, the 25% box office share will be terrifyingly high, and the systems and regulations of any market are constantly developing and improving, and maybe the surrounding areas will gradually develop in the future.

In every respect, this market is promising.

Matthew has done so much, not only for the future, but also for the immediate profit.

Today, when it comes to films, he is not only a star actor, but also a businessman.

The box office is a key measure that all released films can't bypass.

On the first day of the full release of "Fast and Furious 5" here, it gave Matthew a huge surprise.

112.05 million soft girl coins! The box office exceeded 100 million on the first day!

After Matthew got this statistic, he suddenly felt that it was not a luxury to get 1 billion soft girl coins in 30 days.

As for the key to extending the screening, Disney Greater China is already planning, but there should be little hope.

In fact, it is not much use to extend, and it will not get much more box office later.

The following day, "Fast and Furious 5" did not have the effect bonus of the first day of painting, and the single-day box office fell back to below 100 million, reporting 92.5 million soft girl coins.

But then came the rest day Saturday, and the single-day box office exceeded 100 million again, and set a new record in the film market here - 132.04 million soft girl coins.

Matthew is full of confidence at this time, one billion soft girl coins is definitely not the end of "Fast and Furious 5" here, maybe it can hit the highest box office record created by "Avatar" last year.

The big hit of "Fast and Furious 5" has attracted wide attention from the media to the film industry, and it has become the hottest film during the Magic City Film Festival, easily overpowering a number of films participating in the competition unit.

This success, combined with Matthew's long-standing attitude as an old friend, has also brought more attention to films related to him.

In the new week, in the office of China Film Group, the famous mountain carving just came to the office and picked up the latest newspaper about film.

As an official real power figure in the film industry with great power, he has always paid attention to the latest developments in the market.

Especially after the signing of a new film import agreement between China and the United States, Hollywood films will inevitably appear more in theaters here, and China Film has priority in this regard.

This is something that he must consider as a decision-maker.

The introduction of movies not only depends on the scale of the film, but also that the film has no sensitive plot and no sensitive characters.

For example, Sharon Stone's garbage movie, which can't be imported even if the other party gives money.

He opened the newspaper and saw reports about the film market last week, the most conspicuous of which was undoubtedly the ongoing Magic City Film Festival, which is currently the most influential international film festival in China.

In addition, it is "Fast and Furious 5", which has set a number of new market records.

He also went to the premiere of the film at the time, and chatted with Matthew Horner, the film's star and investor, who is an impressive Hollywood star.

In any case, there are few Hollywood stars who can speak Chinese so fluently.

He shook his head, looked at the newspaper in his hand, carefully read the latest report of the Magic City Film Festival, and browsed the news of "Fast and Furious 5".

"Matthew Horner staged the return of the king, and "Fast and Furious 5" topped the box office!"

When the mountain eagle saw the title, he frowned slightly, what happened to the person who wrote the manuscript? How could an official newspaper use such a title?

Fortunately, the following content is still stable.

"This week, the series of blockbuster "Fast and Furious 5" made a luxurious debut to bring fans a galloping joy. From 0:00 to the opening day, the first weekend, "Fast and Furious" ran all the way, contributing one new market achievement after another, bringing the film market in June to a new peak. ”

"At 0:00 last Thursday, "Fast and Furious 5" opened the hottest zero-point show in history in major theaters that are ready to go, with a national box office of about 14 million, setting a new box office record since the domestic film market has a zero-point show. The premiere day is a Thursday, and traditionally a weekday is not a big hit in the cinema. However, Matthew Horner's appeal is huge, and young audiences can't wait to flock to the theaters, especially IMAX tickets are tight, and the scene of "Avatar" bursting with long queues to buy tickets is reappearing. ”

"On the premiere day plus zero o'clock, the national box office is as high as 112.05 million soft girl coins, and the audience reaches 2.62 million people, from the introduction of the "Fast and Furious" series two years ago, it seems to have become a trend of pop culture in China, and the popularity of audiences and fans has also become a typical example of irrational consumption. ”

"In the four days of its opening weekend, "Fast and Furious 5" grossed 450 million people nationwide, with more than 10 million viewers. It's really the return of the king, and his bearing is extraordinary. ”

"Fast and Furious 5 started with a domineering spirit of 'being at the top of the world, and seeing all the mountains at a glance', with 42% of the total number of screenings of the week and 85% of the performances after Thursday. Judging from the market and audience demand, it is understandable that theaters will have the largest lineup for blockbusters. ”

"Theaters with operating standards will intelligently discharge rich program patterns according to the market and theater characteristics. At 9 o'clock in the morning on the weekend, at the Kyoto UME West Gate Cinema, I saw a long queue of dozens of people in front of the ticket counter, and this cinema opened four half-price "Fast and Furious 5" in the morning and it was full ......"

Seeing this, the mountain sculpture stopped and closed the newspaper.

Won 450 million box office in four days! This is really terrifying, and domestic films cannot be compared for the time being.

Fortunately, although this movie is a Hollywood import, the bulk of the income still has to stay here.

But with 25% of the box office share, it's still a bit painful to think about.

After all, the mountain carving stands tall and can see far, knowing that these are not things that he can interfere with, it is an agreement reached at a higher level, and the above will develop domestic films and further expand the total market......

At present, if you want to expand the market quickly, Hollywood blockbusters are an unavoidable link.

The annual quota for the introduction of account-sharing films is 34, and the selection must be exquisite.

The idea of the mountain carving became clearer and clearer, and the introduction of the film should be commercially excellent, but also politically correct.

Take this "Fast and Furious 5" as an example, the box office in four days was 450 million commercially, setting a new domestic box office record for the first week, and there is absolutely nothing to say about it commercially.

Commercially excellent, on the other hand, not bad, the actor and investor Matthew Horner is a Chinese, always friendly, never said anything about this side, no matter what he thinks in his heart, having such an external performance is enough for their introducer.

Also, "Fast and Furious 5" fully shows the chaos of Western society, so that those who fantasize about the West as heaven all day long can take a good look, and the West is by no means what they think it is......

The mountain carving rubbed his chin and recalled the information collected here on Matthew Horner, whether it was commercially or politically correct, and it seemed that the risk of importing his films was relatively small.

Although China Film Group does not have explicit regulations, the foreign films imported have always been divided into three, six, nine and so on.

This time, "Fast and Furious 5" can be released in this time period, which is actually considered a first-class treatment.

The phone rang suddenly, and the mountain eagle picked it up, and the secretary's voice came from inside, "Boss, there is a meeting this morning......"

"I see. The mountain eagle hung up the phone and stood up.

When he walked out of the office door and towards the conference room, he thought more clearly, China Film should list Matthew Horner's film as the first target in the future!

This decision was also unanimously approved at the internal meeting of China Film!

There are more people attending the meeting, and the confidentiality must be poor, and China Film did not ask for confidentiality, so just after noon on Monday, Matthew got the news from Disney in Greater China.

In some ways, he's been treated like Nicolas Cage was here, and even more!

As long as he doesn't get dizzy, this vast market will be open for him for a long time to come.

This is not only the Fast and Furious series, but also other commercial films.

In fact, in this era, the requirements of the audience here are really not high, and it is easy to win their popularity and love, compared to being bombarded by countless films later, now is a good time for popcorn movies.

After the premiere day, most of the crew participated in some promotional activities, and since last Sunday, they have left North America one after another, and the crew is on the side of the magic city, and soon there are two people, Matthew and Justin Lin.

They also have to participate in some activities of the Magic City Film Festival, which have also been agreed before, and the most important one is the International Film Summit Forum during the film festival.

Not only Matthew and Justin Lin, but many international filmmakers who come to Magic City will be present at this event.

To paraphrase the official phrase, it is called discussing the development plan of world cinema.
